  1. Given the ongoing structural headwinds in your exchange business and the pressure from consolidation and internal exchanges, what specific strategies are you implementing to drive more substantial growth in Travel & Membership beyond the flat to 2% EBITDA increase you've projected?

  2. With minimal net owner growth in 2024, largely attributed to the Accor Vacation Club acquisition, how do you plan to achieve net owner growth organically in 2025 while replacing exiting long-term owners and increasing your new owner transaction mix?

  3. Considering the loan loss provision remained at 20% due to increased delinquencies in the first half of 2024, what concrete measures are you taking to reduce delinquencies and move towards your long-term provision target of 18-19%?

  4. While you've noted that the Sports Illustrated brand won't have a meaningful financial impact until next year, what lessons from the successful integration of Accor Vacation Club are you applying to accelerate the growth and profitability of this new venture in 2025?

  5. Despite strong VPGs and consistent consumer demand, you've reported minimal owner growth and are in a "replacement mode" for owners; how are you addressing this issue to ensure not only the retention of existing owners but also the expansion of your owner base in a market with changing consumer dynamics?
