Vacasa Releases Record First Quarter 2022 Results

First quarter Revenue grew 91% year-over-year to $247 million

First quarter Gross Booking Value grew 101% year-over-year to $494 million

Reiterates full year 2022 Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance and continues to expect Adjusted EBITDA profitability in full year 2023

Vacasa (Nasdaq: VCSA), North America’s leading vacation rental management platform, today announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, provided a business update, and posted a shareholder letter with management commentary and a review of the financial results on its investor relations website.

“Our business performed exceptionally well in the first quarter driven by the consumer preference shift toward vacation rental accommodations. Based on our booking volume, we have strong momentum headed into the busy summer months for what is shaping up to be a record peak season for Vacasa,” said Matt Roberts, Chief Executive Officer of Vacasa. “With our expansive inventory of vacation homes, we are the largest single source of bookable nights supply in North America, and we see Vacasa as uniquely positioned to fuel the growth in the booming vacation rental category."

Financial and Business Highlights

  • Achieved Record First Quarter Gross Booking Value and Revenue. For the first quarter 2022, Vacasa generated $494 million of Gross Booking Value, up 101% year-over-year, driving Revenue of $247 million, up 91% year-over-year.
  • Leading Provider of Vacation Rental Supply. Vacasa is the largest single source of vacation rental bookable night supply in North America. Vacasa is seeing strength in its individual approach to adding new homes, as the hundreds of sales representatives hired in 2021 gain tenure and improve productivity. Gross home additions under the individual approach were over 2.5 times greater compared to the first quarter 2021.
  • Generated $1 Billion of Rental Income for Homeowners. In January 2022, Vacasa reached a milestone, generating more than $1 billion of rental income for its homeowners over the preceding 12 months. Vacasa combines sophisticated, internally developed pricing algorithms with broad distribution to optimize rental income for its homeowners.
  • Reiterating Full Year 2022 Guidance and 2023 Adjusted EBITDA Profitability. Based on strong booking trends ahead of the seasonally stronger second and third quarters, Vacasa is reiterating its full year 2022 Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance. Vacasa continues to expect to achieve Adjusted EBITDA profitability for the full year 2023.

"Our business model continues to prove its strength, generating over $2 billion of Gross Booking Value over the past 12 months," said Jamie Cohen, Chief Financial Officer of Vacasa. “Our favorable recent booking trends give us the confidence to reiterate our full year 2022 Revenue and Adjusted EBITDA outlook ahead of our seasonally strongest second and third quarters."

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements made in this press release are considered “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate,” “plan,” “outlook,” and “project” and other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements reflect Vacasa’s current analysis of existing information and are subject to various risks and uncertainties. As a result, caution must be exercised in relying on forward-looking statements.

Due to known and unknown risks, actual results may differ materially from Vacasa’s expectations and projections. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in these forward-looking statements: Vacasa’s ability to achieve profitability; Vacasa’s ability to manage and sustain its growth; the effects of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, including as a result of new strains or variants of the virus, on Vacasa’s business, the travel industry, travel trends, and the global economy generally; Vacasa’s expectations regarding its financial performance, including its revenue, costs, and Adjusted EBITDA; Vacasa’s ability to attract and retain homeowners and guests; Vacasa’s ability to compete in its industry; Vacasa’s expectations regarding the resilience of its model, including in areas such as domestic travel, short-distance travel, and travel outside of top cities; the effects of seasonal trends on its results of operations; Vacasa’s ability to make required payments under its credit agreement and to comply with the various requirements of its indebtedness; Vacasa’s ability to effectively manage its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; the anticipated increase in expenses associated with being a public company; anticipated trends, developments, and challenges in Vacasa’s industry, business, and the highly competitive markets in which it operates; the sufficiency of Vacasa’s cash and cash equivalents to meet its liquidity needs; Vacasa’s ability to anticipate market needs or develop new or enhanced offerings and services to meet those needs; Vacasa’s ability to expand into new markets and businesses, expand its range of homeowner services and pursue strategic acquisition and partnership opportunities; Vacasa’s ability to acquire and integrate companies and assets; Vacasa’s ability to manage expansion into international markets; Vacasa’s ability to stay in compliance with laws and regulations, including tax laws, that currently apply or may become applicable to its business both in the United States and internationally and its expectations regarding various laws and restrictions that relate to its business; Vacasa’s expectations regarding its tax liabilities and the adequacy of its reserves; Vacasa’s ability to effectively manage its growth and expand its infrastructure and maintain its corporate culture; Vacasa’s ability to identify, recruit, and retain skilled personnel, including key members of senior management; the effects of labor shortages and increases in wage and labor costs in its industry; the safety, affordability, and convenience of Vacasa’s platform and its offerings; Vacasa’s ability to keep pace with technological and competitive developments; Vacasa’s ability to maintain and enhance brand awareness; Vacasa’s ability to successfully defend litigation brought against it and its ability to secure adequate insurance coverage to protect the business and operations; and Vacasa’s ability to maintain, protect, and enhance its intellectual property.

You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described in the “Risk Factors” section of Vacasa’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as updated by its other reports filed with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes Adjusted EBITDA, which is a financial measure that is not defined by or presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net loss excluding: (1) depreciation and acquisition-related items consisting of amortization of intangible assets and impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, if applicable; (2) interest income and expense; (3) any other income or expense not earned or incurred during our normal course of business; (4) any income tax benefit or expense; (5) equity-based compensation costs; (6) one-time costs related to strategic business combinations; and (7) restructuring costs. We believe this measure is useful for analysts and investors as this measure allows a more meaningful comparison between our performance and that of our competitors. The above items are excluded from our Adjusted EBITDA measure because these items are non-cash in nature or the amount and timing of these items is unpredictable or one-time in nature, not driven by the performance of our core business operations and renders comparisons with prior periods and competitors less meaningful. Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of Revenue is calculated by dividing Adjusted EBITDA for a period by Revenue for the same period.

Adjusted EBITDA is not defined by or presented in accordance with GAAP, has significant limitations as an analytical tool, should be considered as supplemental in nature, and is not meant as a substitute for net loss or any other financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and others in understanding and evaluating our results of operations, is frequently used by these parties in evaluating companies in our industry, and provides a useful measure for period-to-period comparisons of our business performance. Moreover, we present Adjusted EBITDA in this press release because it is a key measurement used by our management internally to make operating decisions, including those related to analyzing operating expenses, evaluating performance, and performing strategic planning and annual budgeting.

Although we use Adjusted EBITDA as described above, Adjusted EBITDA has significant limitations as an analytical tool, including that it:

  • does not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
  • does not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
  • does not reflect the interest expense, or the cash required to service interest or principal payments, on our debt;
  • does not reflect our tax expense or the cash required to pay our taxes; and
  • although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future and such measure does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.

Due to these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. In addition, other companies in our industry may calculate this measure differently than we do, thereby further limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only on a supplemental basis.

A reconciliation of the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA guidance to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts and is not provided herein because of the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including adjustments that are made for depreciation and amortization of intangible assets, equity-based compensation expense, business combination costs, restructuring charges and other adjustments reflected in our reconciliation of historical Adjusted EBITDA, the amounts of which could be material.
