The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q, and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all information or footnotes required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements. As a result, this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2019~~2020 (the ~~"2019~~"2020 Form 10-K").

We have eliminated all intercompany accounts and transactions in our condensed consolidated financial statements. We consolidate entities under our control, including entities where we are deemed to be the primary beneficiary.

Management believes the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are all of a normal recurring nature, considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim periods.

~~2. IMPACT OF THE~~Impact of the COVID-19 ~~PANDEMIC~~

~~Overview~~Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic and related travel restrictions and containment efforts have had a significant impact on the travel industry and, as a result, on our business. The impact began in the first quarter of 2020 and has continued into ~~the second and third quarters.~~2021. As a result, ~~this~~our financial results for the current interim period, ~~as well as~~and for the foreseeable future, ~~periods,~~ are ~~unlikely to be~~not comparable to past performance or indicative of long-term future performance.

~~Financial Impact~~The extent, duration, and magnitude of the COVID-19 pandemic's effects will depend on various factors, all of which are highly uncertain and difficult to predict, including, but not limited to, the impact of the pandemic on global and regional economies, travel, and economic activity; actions taken by governments, businesses, and individuals in response to the pandemic, any additional resurgence, or COVID-19 variants; and the distribution and broad acceptance of COVID-19 vaccines.

We ~~evaluate~~are required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in our ~~goodwill~~condensed consolidated financial statements and ~~indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually during the fourth quarter of each year~~accompanying Notes. Our estimates and at interim dates, if indicators of impairment exist. Given the impact the COVID-19 pandemic is having on our industry, we concluded that indicators of impairment existed at June 30, 2020 for certain reporting units, and we updated our previous cash flow assumptions based on the current demand trends, historical experiences, and our future expectations for these reporting units. Our assumptions are subject to inherent

risk and uncertainty due to ~~the restrictive measures imposed by governments and other authorities around the world intended to control the spread of COVID-19, consumer confidence levels, and~~ the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, ~~on the hospitality industry. Based on~~and actual results could differ materially from our discounted cash flow analyses, the carrying values of the reporting units were in excess of the fair values, which were determined to be Level Three fair value measurements, and we recognized $38 million of goodwill impairment charges during the three months ended June 30, 2020. The impairment charges were recognized in asset impairments on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) within the owned and leased hotels segment (see Note 8). We concluded that our indefinite-lived intangible assets are not impaired at June 30, 2020. We will continue to monitor the impact the COVID-19 pandemic is having on our business and the valuations of our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets.estimated amounts.

We evaluate property and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, definite-lived intangible assets, and equity method investments for impairment quarterly. As a result of the current economic environment, we assessed the recoverability of the net book value of property and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, and definite-lived intangible assets and determined that the carrying value of certain assets were not fully recoverable. We then estimated the fair value of these assets and determined that the carrying values were in excess of the fair values. Our analyses incorporated cash flow assumptions based on current economic trends, historical experience, and future growth projections, and the fair value measurements were determined to be Level Three fair value measurements. Based on our analyses and contract terminations, we recognized $11 million and $14 million of impairment charges for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, of property and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, and management agreement intangibles. The impairment charges were recognized in asset impairments on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss), primarily within corporate and other. For our equity method investments, we considered the impact on the underlying operations of the investments to determine whether there were any indications that the decline in value was other than temporary, and none were identified.

In assessing our financial assets for credit losses, we considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result of our analysis, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recognized $10 million and $13 million, respectively, of accounts receivable reserves in selling, general, and administrative expenses on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss). During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recognized $1 million and $5 million, respectively, of interest income related to certain of our held-to-maturity ("HTM") debt securities and financing receivables, and we also recognized offsetting credit loss allowances in the same periods in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) (see Notes 5 and 6). During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recognized a $13 million credit loss reserve related to a debt repayment guarantee, which has not been funded, in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) (see Note 13). We will continue to monitor our financial assets for potential credit risk as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic evolves.

3.2. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

~~Summary of Significant Accounting Policies~~

Our significant accounting policies are detailed in Part IV, Item 15, "Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedule—Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements" within the 2019 Form 10-K. Upon adoption of Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 ("ASU 2016-13"), ~~Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,~~ ~~our accounting policies have been updated as follows:~~

~~Debt and Equity Securities—Excluding equity method investments, debt and equity securities consist of various investments:~~

Equity securities consist of interest-bearing money market funds, mutual funds, common shares, and preferred shares. Equity securities with a readily determinable fair value are recorded at fair value on our condensed consolidated balance sheets based on listed market prices or dealer quotations where available. Equity securities without a readily determinable fair value are recorded at cost less any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or similar investment of the same issuer. Net gains and losses, both realized and unrealized, and impairment charges on equity securities are recognized in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss).

Debt securities include preferred shares, time deposits, and fixed income securities, including U.S. government obligations, obligations of other government agencies, corporate debt, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, and municipal and provincial notes and bonds. Debt securities are classified as trading, available-for-sale ("AFS"), or held-to-maturity.

Trading securities—recorded at fair value based on listed market prices or dealer price quotations, where available. Net gains and losses, both realized and unrealized, on trading securities are recognized in net gains (losses) and interest income from marketable securities held to fund rabbi trusts or other income (loss), net, depending on the nature of the investment, on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss).

AFS securities—recorded at fair value based on listed market prices or dealer price quotations, where available. Unrealized gains and losses on AFS debt securities are recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Realized gains and losses on debt securities are recognized in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss). AFS securities are assessed quarterly for expected credit losses which are recognized in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss). In determining the reserve for credit losses, we evaluate AFS securities at the individual security level and consider our investment strategy, current market conditions, financial strength of the underlying investments, term to maturity, credit rating, and our intent and ability to sell the securities.

HTM securities—investments that we have the intent and ability to hold until maturity are recorded at amortized cost, net of expected credit losses. HTM securities are assessed for expected credit losses quarterly, and credit losses are recognized in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss). We evaluate HTM securities individually when determining the reserve for credit losses due to the unique risks associated with each security. In determining the reserve for credit losses, we consider the financial strength of the underlying assets including the current and forecasted performance of the property, term to maturity, credit quality of the owner, and current market conditions.

~~We classify debt securities as current or long-term, based on their contractual maturity dates and our intent and ability to hold.~~

~~Our preferred shares earn a return that is recognized as interest income in other income (loss), net~~.

~~For additional information about debt and equity securities, see Note 5.~~

~~Financing Receivables—Financing receivables represent contractual rights to receive money either on demand or on fixed or determinable dates and are recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at~~

~~amortized cost, net of expected credit losses. We recognize interest as earned and include accrued interest in the amortized cost basis of the asset.~~

Our financing receivables are composed of individual, unsecured loans and other types of unsecured financing arrangements provided to hotel owners. These financing receivables generally have stated maturities and interest rates, but the repayment terms vary and may be dependent on future cash flows of the hotel. We individually assess all financing receivables for credit losses quarterly and establish a reserve to reflect the net amount expected to be collected. We estimate credit losses based on an analysis of several factors, including current economic conditions, industry trends, and specific risk characteristics of the financing receivable, including capital structure, loan performance, market factors, and the underlying hotel performance. Adjustments to credit allowances on financing receivables are recognized in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss).

We evaluate accrued interest allowances separately from the financing receivable assets. On an ongoing basis, we monitor the credit quality of our financing receivables based on historical and expected future payment activity. We determine our financing to hotel owners to be non-performing if interest or principal is greater than 90 days past due based on the contractual terms of the individual financing receivables or if an allowance has been established for our other financing arrangements with that borrower. If we consider a financing receivable to be non-performing, we place the financing receivable on non-accrual status.

For financing receivables on non-accrual status, we recognize interest income in other income (loss), net in our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) when cash is received. Accrual of interest income is resumed and potential reversal of any associated allowance for credit loss occurs when the receivable becomes contractually current and collection doubts are removed.

After an allowance for credit losses has been established, we may determine the receivable balance is uncollectible when all commercially reasonable means of recovering the receivable balance have been exhausted. We write-off uncollectible balances by reversing the financing receivable and the related allowance for credit losses. For additional information about financing receivables, see Note 6.

~~Accounts Receivables~~—Our accounts receivables primarily consist of trade receivables due from guests for services rendered at our owned and leased properties and from hotel owners with whom we have management and franchise agreements for services rendered and for reimbursements of costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties. We assess all accounts receivables for credit losses quarterly and establish a reserve to reflect the net amount expected to be collected. The credit loss reserve is based on an assessment of historical collection activity, the nature of the receivable, geographic considerations, and the current business environment. The allowance for credit losses is recognized in owned and leased hotels expense or selling, general, and administrative expense on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss), based on the nature of the receivable.

~~Guarantees~~—We enter into performance guarantees related to certain hotels we manage. We also enter into debt repayment and other guarantees with respect to unconsolidated hospitality ventures, certain managed hotels, and other properties. We record a liability for the fair value of these guarantees at their inception date. In order to estimate the fair value, we use a Monte Carlo simulation to model the probability of possible outcomes. The valuation methodology requires that we make certain assumptions and judgments regarding discount rates, volatility, hotel operating results, and hotel property sales prices. The fair value is not re-valued due to future changes in assumptions. The corresponding offset depends on the circumstances in which the guarantee was issued and is recorded to equity method investments, other assets, or expenses. We amortize the liability for the fair value of a guarantee into income over the term of the guarantee using a systematic and rational, risk-based approach. Guarantees related to our managed hotels and other properties are amortized into income in other income (loss), net in our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss). Guarantees related to our unconsolidated hospitality ventures are amortized into equity earnings (losses) from unconsolidated hospitality ventures in our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss).

Performance and other guarantees—On a quarterly basis, we evaluate the likelihood of funding under a guarantee. To the extent we determine an obligation to fund is both probable and estimable based on performance during the period, we record a separate contingent liability with the offset recognized in other income (loss), net.

Debt repayment guarantees—At inception of the guarantee and on a quarterly basis, we evaluate the risk of funding under a guarantee. We assess credit risk based on the current and forecasted performance of

the underlying property, whether the property owner is current on debt service, the historical performance of the underlying property, and the current market, and we record a separate liability with an offset recognized in other income (loss), net or equity earnings (losses) from unconsolidated hospitality ventures as necessary.

~~For additional information about guarantees, see Note~~13.

~~Adopted Accounting Standards~~

~~Financial Instruments~~—~~Credit Losses~~—In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") released ASU 2016-13. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing impairment model for most financial assets from an incurred loss model to a current expected credit loss model, which requires an entity to recognize allowances for credit losses equal to its current estimate of all contractual cash flows the entity does not expect to collect. ASU 2016-13 also requires credit losses relating to AFS debt securities to be recognized through an allowance for credit losses. We adopted ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2020 utilizing the modified retrospective approach. Upon adoption, we recorded an adjustment of $1 million, net of tax, to opening retained earnings related to our credit allowance for accounts receivables, a $12 million increase to our HTM debt securities, and a corresponding $12 million credit loss allowance on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The adoption of ASU 2016-03 did not materially affect our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) or our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows, and the adoption adjustments do not reflect the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, see Note 2.

Future Adoption of Accounting Standards

Reference Rate Reform—In March 2020, the ~~FASB~~Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2020-04 ("ASU 2020-04"), Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions that we can elect to adopt, subject to meeting certain criteria, regarding contract modifications, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London ~~interbank offered rate~~Inter-bank Offered Rate for deposits of U.S. dollars ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued by June 30, 2023 because of reference rate reform. The ~~relief provided in~~provisions of ASU 2020-04 ~~is applicable to all entities, but is~~are only available through December 31, 2022. We are ~~still~~currently assessing the impact of adopting ASU 2020-04.

Revenue Allocated to Remaining Performance Obligations

Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents contracted revenue that has not yet been recognized, which includes deferred revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. Contracted revenue expected to be recognized in future periods was approximately ~~$130~~$120 million at ~~June 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, of which we expect to recognize approximately ~~15% as~~10% of the revenue over the next 12 months and the remainder thereafter.

~~We did not estimate revenues expected to be recognized related to our unsatisfied performance obligations for the following:~~

~~Deferred revenue related to the loyalty program and revenue from base and incentive management fees as the revenue is allocated to a wholly unperformed performance obligation in a series;~~

~~Revenues related to royalty fees as they are considered sales-based royalty fees;~~

~~Revenues received for free nights granted through our co-branded credit cards as the awards are required to be redeemed within 12 months; and~~

~~Revenues related to advanced bookings at owned and leased hotels as each stay has a duration of 12 months or less.~~

The fair value of the common shares is classified as Level One in the fair value hierarchy as we are able to obtain market available pricing information. The remeasurement of our investment at fair value resulted in $23 million and $1 million of unrealized gains for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively, and $58 million of unrealized losses and $7 million of unrealized gains for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively, recognized in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) (see Note~~19).~~ We did 0t sell any shares of common stock during the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2021 or March 31, 2020.

Other Investments

HTM Debt Securities—~~At June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we held $80 million and $58 million, respectively, of~~We hold investments in ~~HTM~~held-to-maturity ("HTM") debt securities, ~~net of allowances,~~ which are investments in third-party entities that own or are developing certain of our ~~hotels~~hotels.

The ~~securities are mandatorily redeemable between 2020 and 2027. At June 30, 2020~~following table summarizes the activity in our ~~investments were net of allowances of $16 million. The carrying value of our investments approximates fair value.~~ HTM debt security allowance for credit losses:

Credit losses (a)	1		3
Allowance at March 31	$	22	$	15
(a) Credit losses were offset by interest income recognized in the same periods. The credit losses and interest income were both recognized in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss).

We estimated the fair value of ~~our investments~~HTM debt securities to be approximately $103 million and $100 million at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The fair values, which are classified as Level Three in the fair value hierarchy, are estimated using internally developed discounted cash flow models based on current market inputs for similar types of arrangements. ~~Based on the lack of available market data, our investments are classified as Level Three within the fair value hierarchy.~~ The primary sensitivity in these models is based on the selection of appropriate discount rates. Fluctuations in these assumptions could result in different estimates of fair value.

Equity Securities Without a Readily Determinable Fair Value—At ~~June 30, 2020~~both March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we held $12 ~~million and $7~~ million of investments in equity securities without a readily determinable fair value, which represent investments in entities where we do not have the ability to significantly influence the operations of the entity.

6. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

Acquisitions

~~Land~~Grand Hyatt São Paulo—We previously held a 50% interest in the entities that own Grand Hyatt São Paulo, and we accounted for the investment as an unconsolidated hospitality venture under the equity method. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we purchased the remaining 50% interest for $6 million of cash. Additionally, we repaid the $78 million third-party mortgage loan on the property, and we were released from our debt repayment guarantee (see Note 12). The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition, and we recognized a $69 million pre-tax gain related to the transaction in equity earnings (losses) from unconsolidated hospitality ventures on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss). The pre-tax gain is primarily attributable a $42 million reversal of other long-term liabilities associated with our equity method investment and a $22 million reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive loss (see Note 13).

Net assets acquired were determined as follows:






Cash paid	$	6
Repayment of third-party mortgage loan	78
Fair value of our previously held equity method investment	6
Net assets acquired	$	90

Upon acquisition, we recorded $101 million of property and equipment and $11 million of deferred tax liabilities within our owned and leased hotels segment.

Dispositions

Hyatt Centric Center City Philadelphia—During the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30, 2019, we acquired $15 million of land through an asset acquisition from~~March 31, 2020, an unrelated third party ~~to develop a hotel in Austin, Texas and subsequently sold the land and related construction in progress through an asset disposition during the year ended December 31, 2019.~~

~~Dispositions~~

~~Property Under Development—During the six months ended June 30, 2020, an unrelated third-party~~ invested in certain of our subsidiaries that ~~are developing a hotel,~~developed Hyatt Centric Center City Philadelphia and adjacent parking and retail space in ~~Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in~~ exchange for a ~~60%~~58% ownership interest, resulting in the derecognition of the ~~non-financial~~nonfinancial assets of the subsidiaries. As a result of the transaction, we received $72 million of proceeds, recorded our ~~40%~~42% ownership interest as an equity method investment, and recognized a $4 million pre-tax gain in gains on sales of real estate on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) during the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2020. Our $22 million equity method investment was recorded at fair value based on the value contributed by our partner to the unconsolidated hospitality venture. As additional consideration, we received a $5 million investment in an equity security without a readily determinable fair value.

Building—During the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2020, we sold a commercial building in Omaha, Nebraska for $6 million, net of closing costs and proration adjustments. In conjunction with the sale, we entered into a lease for a portion of the building and accounted for the transaction as a sale and leaseback ~~for which~~and recorded a $4 million operating lease right-of-use asset and related lease liability ~~were recorded~~ on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The sale resulted in a $4 million pre-tax gain, which was recognized in gains on sales of real estate on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) during the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2020. ~~The~~At March 31, 2020, the operating lease ~~has~~had a weighted-average remaining term of 9 years and a weighted-average discount rate of 3.25%. The lease includes an option to extend the lease term by 5 years.

Like-Kind Exchange Agreements

Periodically, we enter into like-kind exchange agreements ~~associated with~~upon the disposition or acquisition of certain properties. Pursuant to the terms of these agreements, the proceeds from the sales are placed into an escrow account administered by a qualified intermediary and are unavailable for our use until released. The proceeds are recorded as restricted cash on our ~~condensed~~ consolidated balance sheets and released (i) if they are utilized as part of a like-kind exchange agreement, (ii) if we do not identify a suitable replacement property within 45 days after the agreement date, or (iii) when a like-kind exchange agreement is not completed within the remaining allowable time period.

~~In conjunction with the sale~~

Table of the property adjacent to Grand Hyatt San Francisco during the year ended December 31, 2019, $115 million of proceeds were held as restricted for use in a potential like-kind exchange. However, we did not acquire the identified replacement property within the specified 180 day period, and the proceeds were released during the six months ended June 30, 2020. Contents

~~10.~~9. DEBT

Long-term debt ~~net of current maturities,~~ was ~~$2,491~~$2,982 million and ~~$1,612~~$2,984 million at ~~June 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively.

~~Senior Notes~~—During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we issued $450 million of 5.375% senior notes due 2025 (the "2025 Notes") and $450 million of 5.750% senior notes due 2030 (the "2030 Notes"), issued at par. We received approximately $890 million of net proceeds from the sale, after deducting $10 million of underwriting discounts and other offering expenses. We used a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the 2025 Notes and the 2030 Notes to repay all outstanding borrowings on our revolving credit facility and settle the outstanding interest rate locks and we intend to use the remainder for general corporate purposes. Interest on the 2025 Notes and 2030 Notes is payable semi-annually on April 23 and October 23 of each year, beginning on October 23, 2020.

Revolving Credit Facility—During the three months ended ~~June 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we entered into a ~~Second~~Third Amendment to the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Revolver Amendment"). The Revolver Amendment (i) extended the current covenant relief period through January 1, 2022 (the "Covenant Relief Period"), ~~which amends~~(ii) added a new minimum fixed charge coverage ratio covenant applicable to the ~~Second Amended~~first quarter of 2022, and ~~Restated Credit Agreement. Terms~~(iii) increased the maintenance level of the leverage ratio covenant for the second, third, fourth and fifth quarters following the end of the Covenant Relief Period. The Revolver Amendment ~~include, but are not limited~~also included an option, at our election, to ~~waivers~~extend the maturity date of $1.45 billion of revolving credit commitments by one year on ~~certain covenants and modifications to negative covenants and other~~the terms ~~including~~specified in the ~~interest rate.~~Revolver Amendment. The terms of the Revolver Amendment ~~also~~ restrict, among other things, our ability to repurchase shares and pay dividends ~~through~~until the first quarter of ~~2021.~~2022. The $1.5 billion aggregate commitment amount under our revolving credit facility remains unchanged.

During the ~~six~~three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2021, we had 0 borrowings or repayments on our revolving credit facility. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we had $400 million of borrowings and $50 million of repayments on our revolving credit facility. The weighted-average interest rate on these borrowings was ~~1.71%~~1.66% at ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2020. At ~~June 30, 2020~~both March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we had 0 balance outstanding. At ~~June 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we had $1,499 million of borrowing capacity available under our revolving credit facility, net of letters of credit outstanding.

Fair Value—We estimated the fair value of debt, excluding finance ~~leases,~~lease obligations, which consists of ~~$250 million of 5.375% senior~~the notes ~~due 2021 (the "2021 Notes"), $350 million of 3.375% senior notes due 2023 (the~~

~~"2023 Notes"), the 2025 Notes, $400 million of 4.850% senior notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes"), $400 million of 4.375% senior notes due 2028 (the "2028 Notes"), and the 2030 Notes,~~below, collectively referred to as the "Senior Notes," bonds, and other long-term debt.

Table of Contents

•$250 million of 5.375% senior notes due 2021 (the "2021 Notes")

•$750 million of three-month LIBOR plus 3.000% senior notes due 2022 (the "2022 Notes")

•$450 million of 5.750% senior notes due 2030 (the "2030 Notes")

Our Senior Notes and bonds are classified as Level Two due to the use and weighting of multiple market inputs in the final price of the security. We estimated the fair value of other debt instruments using a discounted cash flow analysis based on current market inputs for similar types of arrangements. Based on the lack of available market data, we have classified our revolving credit facility and other debt instruments as Level Three. The primary sensitivity in these models is based on the selection of appropriate discount rates. Fluctuations in ~~these~~our assumptions will result in different estimates of fair value.

Interest Rate Locks—At both March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we had 0 outstanding interest rate ~~locks with $275 million in notional value and mandatory settlement dates of 2021.~~ The interest rate locks hedged a portion of the risk of changes in the benchmark interest rate associated with long-term debt we anticipated issuing in the future. These outstanding derivative instruments were designated as cash flow hedges and deemed highly effective both at inception and upon settlement as discussed below.

At December 31, 2019, we had $24 million related to these instruments recorded in other long-term liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We estimated the fair values of interest rate locks, which were classified as Level Two in the fair value hierarchy, using discounted cash flow models. The primary sensitivity in these models is based on forward and discount curves.

During the three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2020, we recognized $34 million of pre-tax losses in unrealized gains (losses) on our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive loss related to derivative instruments that were settled ~~the aforementioned interest rate locks for~~in April 2020.

This loss ~~will be~~is amortized ~~over the term of the 2030 Notes to~~into interest expense on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss)~~.

The $61 million settlement is reflected as a cash outflow from operating activities on the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020, as our policy is to classify cash flows from derivative instruments in the same category as the item being hedged.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recognized $3 million and $37 million of pre-tax losses, respectively, in unrealized gains (losses) on derivative activity on our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, we recognized $11 million and $17 million of pre-tax losses in unrealized gains (losses) on derivative activity on our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

~~12.~~11. INCOME TAXES

On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ("CARES") Act was signed into law. The provisions include, but are not limited to, allowing net operating loss carrybacks, modifying the net interest deduction limitations, providing technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property, allowing refundable payroll tax credits, and deferring employer social security deposits. Specifically, net operating losses incurred in 2020 may be carried back to each of the preceding five years to offset prior year taxable income generating a refund in future periods when the tax returns are filed, and the cash is received.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we recognized an $18 million benefit related to the employee retention credit created under the CARES Act, the majority of which related to our managed properties. Of this benefit, $14 million related to our managed properties and $4 million related to our owned and leased properties. The benefit for our owned and leased hotels was recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2020 as a reduction of owned and leased hotels expense on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss). The $14 million benefit for our managed properties is offset within revenues for the reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties with no impact to net income on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss).

The effective income tax rates for the three months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020 were (156.6)% and ~~June 30, 2019 were 28.5% and 18.4%, respectively.

allowance on U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets and the impact of unbenefited U.S. and foreign losses in the period.

During the year ended December 31, 2020 and the three months ended March 31, 2021, we generated significant pre-tax losses driven by the COVID-19 pandemic business disruption, and during the three months ended March 31, 2021, we entered into a three-year cumulative U.S. pre-tax loss position. When assessing the need for a valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets, we considered both positive and negative evidence, including the cumulative three-year pre-tax loss position. We considered sources of positive evidence including recent favorable recovery trends in the hospitality industry in the first quarter of 2021 and the indefinite carryforward period of U.S. tax losses generated. Accounting Standards Codification 740, Income Taxes, prescribes that a recent cumulative pre-tax loss position is strong objectively verifiable negative evidence that is difficult to overcome and little or no weight is placed on future projections of pre-tax income, and therefore, our forecasts did not have an impact on our assessment. Based on the weight of all available evidence, we recorded a full valuation allowance against our U.S. deferred tax assets.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we recognized a $193 million valuation allowance for U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets. At January 1, 2021, we had no U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards, as the net operating losses we generated in 2020 were carried back to prior years, as described below. To measure the valuation allowance, we estimated the years in which our deferred tax assets and liabilities would reverse using systematic and logical methods to determine reversal patterns.

If we continue to generate losses in future periods, additional valuation allowances may be required that could have an adverse impact on our net income (loss). Conversely, if pre-tax income returns to normalized levels, we expect to see these allowances reverse, which would result in an increase in reported net income. We will ~~be benefited at~~continue to reassess the ~~35%~~realizability of our U.S. deferred tax ~~rate~~asset balances in ~~accordance with~~future periods.

During the ~~terms~~three months ended March 31, 2021, we filed a U.S. refund claim, which carried back the taxable loss generated in 2020 to 2015, 2016, and 2017 as allowed under the provision of the CARES Act, partially offset by a $24 million valuation allowance recorded on foreign tax credits not expected to be realized within the carryforward period. In addition, in 2019 we recorded a non-recurring benefit asCoronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act. As a result, we expect a refund from the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") of ~~an agreement reached by the United States and Swiss tax authorities~~approximately $250 million, which is recorded in prepaid income taxes on ~~Advanced Pricing Agreement terms covering the years 2012 through 2021.~~our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

We are subject to audits by federal, state, and foreign tax authorities. ~~We are currently under field exam by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") for tax years 2015 through 2017.~~ U.S. tax years 2009 through 2011 are before the U.S. Tax Court concerning the tax treatment of the loyalty program. ~~Additionally,~~We are currently under field exam by the IRS for tax years 2015 through 2017. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we received a Notice of Proposed Adjustment for those tax years related to the loyalty program issue currently in U.S. Tax Court. As a result, U.S. tax years ~~2012~~2009 through ~~2014~~2017 are pending the outcome of the issue currently in U.S. Tax Court. If the IRS' position to include loyalty program contributions as taxable income to the Company is upheld, it would result in an income tax payment of ~~$196~~$218 million (including ~~$52~~$60 million of estimated interest, net of federal tax benefit) for all assessed years that would be partially offset by a deferred tax asset. As future tax benefits will be recognized at the reduced U.S. corporate income tax rate, $73 million of the payment and related interest would have an impact on the effective tax rate, if recognized.years. We believe we have an adequate uncertain tax liability recorded in connection with this matter.

At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, total unrecognized tax benefits recorded in other long-term liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets were $147 million and $146 million, respectively, of which $138 million and $49 million, respectively, would impact the effective tax rate if recognized.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In the ordinary course of business, we enter into various commitments, guarantees, surety bonds, and letter of credit agreements.

Commitments—At ~~June 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we are committed, under certain conditions, to lend or provide certain consideration to, or invest in, various business ventures up to ~~$277~~$335 million, net of any related letters of credit.

Performance Guarantees—Certain of our contractual agreements with third-party hotel owners require us to guarantee payments to the owners if specified levels of operating profit are not achieved by their hotels. At ~~June 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the remaining maximum exposure under our performance guarantees was ~~$60~~$41 million.

Our most significant performance guarantee, relating to 4 managed hotels in France, ~~that we began managing in the second quarter of 2013 ("the four managed hotels in France")~~ expired on April 30, 2020.

We had ~~$39~~$14 million and ~~$33~~$16 million of total ~~net~~ performance guarantee liabilities at ~~June 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively, which included ~~$7 million and $14~~$6 million recorded in other long-term liabilities for both periods and ~~$32~~$8 million and ~~$19~~$10 million recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets, respectively.

Additionally, we enter into certain management contracts where we have the right, but not an obligation, to make payments to certain hotel owners if their hotels do not achieve specified levels of operating profit.

(1) Debt repayment guarantee is denominated in Indian rupees and translated using exchange rates at ~~June 30, 2020.~~March 31, 2021. We have the contractual right to recover amounts funded from an unconsolidated hospitality venture, which is a related party. We expect our maximum exposure to be ~~$81~~$85 million, taking into account our partner's 50% ownership interest in the unconsolidated hospitality venture. Under certain events or conditions, we have the right to force the sale of the properties in order to recover amounts funded.

(2) We have agreements with our unconsolidated hospitality venture partners, the respective hotel owners, or other third parties to recover certain amounts funded under the debt repayment guarantee; the recoverability mechanism may be in the form of cash ~~financing receivable,~~ or HTM debt security.

(3) If certain funding thresholds are met or if certain events occur, we have the ability to assume control of the property. With respect to properties in Brazil, this right only exists for the residential property.

~~(4)~~ In conjunction with the debt repayment guarantees, we are subject to completion guarantees whereby the parties agree to substantially complete the construction of the project by a specified date. In the event of default, we are obligated to complete construction using the funds available from the outstanding loan. Any additional funds paid by us are subject to partial recovery in the form of cash. At ~~June 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, the maximum potential future payments ~~are $3 million,~~ and the maximum exposure net of recoverability from third parties isare insignificant.

(4) If certain funding thresholds are met or if certain events occur, we have the ability to assume control of the property.

As a result of existing economic conditions, in part due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the developer's inability to complete construction and meet its debt service, we recognized a $13 million credit loss related to a debt repayment guarantee for the residential property in Brazil in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 (see Note 19).

At ~~June 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we are not aware of, nor have we received notification that our unconsolidated hospitality ventures or hotel owners are not current on their debt service obligations where we have provided a debt repayment guarantee.

Guarantee Liabilities Fair Value—We estimated the fair value of our guarantees to be ~~$78~~$44 million and ~~$62~~$66 million at ~~June 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. Based on the lack of available market data, we have classified our guarantees as Level Three in the fair value hierarchy.

Insurance—We obtain commercial insurance for potential losses for general liability, workers' compensation, automobile liability, employment practices, crime, property, cyber risk, and other miscellaneous coverages. A portion of the risk is retained on a self-insurance basis primarily through a U.S.-based and licensed captive insurance ~~companies~~company that ~~are~~is a wholly owned ~~subsidiaries~~subsidiary of Hyatt and generally ~~insure~~insures our deductibles and retentions. Reserve requirements are established based on actuarial projections of ultimate losses. Reserves for losses in our captive insurance ~~companies~~company to be paid within 12 months are $36 million and ~~$41~~$37 million at ~~June 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively, and are recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Reserves for losses in our captive insurance ~~companies~~company to be paid in future periods are ~~$74 million and $80~~$67 million at ~~June 30, 2020~~both March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019, respectively,~~2020 and are recorded in other long-term liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Collective Bargaining Agreements—At ~~June 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, approximately ~~24%~~26% of our U.S.-based employees were covered by various collective bargaining agreements, generally providing for basic pay rates, working hours, other conditions of employment, and orderly settlement of labor disputes. Certain employees are covered by union-sponsored, multi-employer pension and health plans pursuant to agreements between us and various unions. Generally, labor relations have been maintained in a normal and satisfactory manner, and we believe our employee relations are good.

Surety Bonds—Surety bonds issued on our behalf were ~~$51~~$49 million at ~~June 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and primarily relate to workers' compensation, taxes, licenses, construction liens, and utilities related to our lodging operations.

Letters of Credit—Letters of credit outstanding on our behalf at ~~June 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 were ~~$256~~$238 million, which relate to our ongoing operations, hotel properties under development in the U.S., collateral for estimated insurance claims, and securitization of our performance under our debt repayment ~~guarantees~~guarantee associated with the hotel properties in India, ~~and the residential property in Brazil,~~ which ~~are~~is only called ~~upon~~on if we default on our ~~guarantees.~~guarantee. Of the letters of credit outstanding, $1 million reduces the available capacity under our revolving credit facility (see Note ~~10)~~9).

Capital Expenditures—As part of our ongoing business operations, expenditures are required to complete renovation projects that have been approved.

Other—We act as general partner of various partnerships owning hotel properties that are subject to mortgage indebtedness. These mortgage agreements generally limit the lender's recourse to security interests in assets financed and/or other assets of the partnership(s) and/or the general partner(s) thereof.

In conjunction with financing obtained for our unconsolidated hospitality ventures and certain managed hotels, ~~and other properties,~~ we may provide standard indemnifications to the lender for loss, liability, or damage occurring as a result of our actions or actions of the other unconsolidated hospitality venture partners or respective hotel ~~owners, or other third parties.~~owners.

As a result of certain dispositions, we have agreed to provide customary indemnifications to third-party purchasers for certain liabilities incurred prior to sale and for breach of certain representations and warranties made during the sales process, such as representations of valid title, authority, and environmental issues that may not be limited by a contractual monetary amount. These indemnification agreements survive until the applicable statutes of limitation expire or until the agreed upon contract terms expire.

We are subject, from time to time, to various claims and contingencies related to lawsuits, taxes, and environmental matters, as well as commitments under contractual obligations. Many of these claims are covered under our current insurance programs, subject to deductibles. Although the ultimate liability for these matters cannot be determined at this point, based on information currently available, we do not expect the ultimate resolution of such claims and litigation to have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

During the year ended December 31, 2018, we received a notice from the Indian tax authorities assessing additional service tax on our operations in India. We appealed this decision and do not believe a loss is probable, and therefore, we have not ~~recognized~~recorded a liability in connection with this matter. At ~~June 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, our maximum exposure is not expected to exceed $18 million.

16. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Our reportable segments are components of the business which are managed discretely and for which discrete financial information is reviewed regularly by the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") to assess performance and make decisions regarding the allocation of resources. Our CODM is our President and Chief Executive Officer. Effective January 1, 2020, we changed the strategic and operational oversight for our Miraval properties, which were previously evaluated as a distinct business by our CODM. The management fees from Miraval properties are now reported in the Americas management and franchising segment, and the operating results and financial position of underlying hotel results are now reported in our owned and leased hotels segment; the results of Miraval properties were previously reported in corporate and other. In addition, the license fees we receive from Hyatt Residence Club are now reported within our Americas management and franchising segment due to changes in the strategic oversight for these license agreements. The segment changes have been reflected retrospectively to the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. We define our reportable segments as follows:

•

•Owned and leased hotels—This segment derives its earnings from owned and leased hotel properties located predominantly in the United States but also in certain international locations, and for purposes of segment Adjusted EBITDA, includes our pro rata share of the Adjusted EBITDA of our unconsolidated hospitality ventures, based on our ownership percentage of each venture. Adjusted EBITDA includes intercompany expenses related to management fees paid to the Company's management and franchising segments, which are eliminated in consolidation. Intersegment revenues relate to promotional award redemptions earned by our owned and leased hotels related to our co-branded credit card program and are eliminated in consolidation.

•Americas management and franchising—This segment derives its earnings primarily from a combination of hotel management and licensing of our portfolio of brands to franchisees located in the United States, Latin America, Canada, and the Caribbean as well as revenues from residential management operations. This segment's revenues also include the reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties. These reimbursed costs relate primarily to payroll at managed properties where the Company is the employer, as well as costs associated with sales, reservations, technology, and marketing services (collectively, "system-wide services") and the loyalty program operated on behalf of owners of managed and franchised properties. The intersegment revenues relate to management fees earned from the Company's owned and leased hotels and are eliminated in consolidation.

•ASPAC management and franchising—This segment derives its earnings primarily from a combination of hotel management and licensing of our portfolio of brands to franchisees located in Southeast Asia, Greater China, Australia, New Zealand, South Korea, Japan, and Micronesia. This segment's revenues also include the reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties. These reimbursed costs relate primarily to system-wide services and the loyalty program operated on behalf of owners of managed and franchised properties.

Overview of the Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

The global spread and ~~unprecedented~~ impact of the COVID-19 pandemic are complex and continuously evolving, resulting in significant disruption to our business, the lodging and hospitality industries, and the global economy. The pandemic has led governments and other authorities around the world to impose measures intended to control its spread, including restrictions on ~~freedom of movement,~~large gatherings of ~~large numbers of~~ people, ~~and business operations such as~~ travel bans, border closings, business closures and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, and social distancing measures. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic and its ~~consequences~~impacts have significantly reduced global travel and demand for hotel rooms and travel experiences and have had a material detrimental impact on global commercial activity across the travel, lodging, and hospitality industries, ~~all of~~ which has had, and is expected to continue to have, a material impact on our business, results of operations, ~~and~~ cash flows, ~~for~~and financial condition.

While we have seen continued improvement during the ~~year ending December~~quarter ended March 31, ~~2020.~~

We2021, we expect demand could continue to be uneven in the near term, and we do not expect a material improvement in results until business traveler and ~~general~~ consumer confidence related to risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic improves and various ~~governmental~~government and corporate restrictions on travel and freedom of movement ~~as well as social distancing and other precautionary requirements,~~ are lifted. ~~As such, we~~We have, at times, suspended operations at certain hotels experiencing low levels of occupancy for different lengths of time across our portfolio. ~~Even as such~~As restrictions ~~are~~have been lifted, ~~and~~ we ~~are~~have been able to reopen the majority of hotels where operations were

previously suspended, but as cases of COVID-19 increase in various regions around the globe, restrictions have been re-established in certain markets, which have created, and may continue to create, demand volatility and may result in the subsequent re-suspension of operations at certain hotels. At March 31, 2021, 96% of our system-wide hotels were open compared to 94% at December 31, 2020. Even once all restrictions on global travel have been lifted and vaccines are widely available and distributed, there remains considerable uncertainty as to the ~~time it will take to see an increase in travel and~~pace of recovery of demand for lodging and travel-related experiences.

We ~~continue to monitor the constantly evolving situation and~~are monitoring guidance from international and domestic authorities, including federal, state, and local public health authorities, and ~~we may be required or elect to take additional actions based on their recommendations. Under these circumstances,~~ there may be developments that require us to further adjust our operations.

Overview of Financial Results

For the quarter ended ~~June 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we reported a net loss attributable to Hyatt Hotels Corporation of ~~$236~~$304 million, representing a ~~$322~~$201 million decrease compared to the quarter ended ~~June 30, 2019, primarily~~March 31, 2020, driven by decreased operating performance as a result of the COVID-19 ~~pandemic.~~pandemic and a non-cash tax valuation allowance recognized in the quarter.

difficult to predict at this time and is highly dependent on a variety of factors including group business and corporate travel demand, consumer confidence regarding the safety of travel, the distribution and broad acceptance of COVID-19 vaccines, and the global economic impact resulting from the pandemic.

At our full ~~and select~~ service hotels in the Americas, including owned and leased hotels, we have seen cancellations concentrated in near-term booking dates. We anticipate cancellation activity to continue, especially for larger corporate meetings, as restrictions on travel remain uncertain at this time. Cancellations for 2021 and beyond remain limited at this time. While we continue to see long-term group bookings production ~~booking volumes for dates into 2021 and beyond have been uneven and diminished~~improve compared to 2020, though still significantly lower than pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels. The revenue associated with group booking demand is dependent on travel restrictions related to gatherings being lifted and confidence from meeting planners and businesses that their attendees are comfortable traveling.

Our consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter ended ~~June 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 decreased ~~$330~~$106 million, compared to the ~~second~~first quarter of ~~2019.~~2020, driven by the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. See "—Segment Results" for further discussion. For the remainder of the year, we expect Adjusted EBITDA to be negatively impacted by the expected declines in revenues across our portfolio of properties and ongoing non-controllable fixed expenses at our owned and leased hotels. We anticipate this will be partially offset by favorability in selling, general, and administrative expenses as a result of decreased payroll and related costs and the elimination of all non-essential spending. See "—Non-GAAP Measures" for an explanation of how we utilize Adjusted EBITDA, why we present it, and material limitations on its usefulness, as well as a reconciliation of our net ~~income (loss)~~loss attributable to Hyatt Hotels Corporation to EBITDA and a reconciliation of EBITDA to consolidated Adjusted EBITDA.

During the quarter ended ~~June 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, there were no returns of capital to our shareholders through share repurchases, and there was no quarterly dividend ~~payment. We~~payment as we suspended all share repurchase activity ~~effective~~and dividend payments beginning in March ~~3, 2020, and we also suspended all dividend payments. The terms of the Revolver Amendment restrict our ability to repurchase shares and pay dividends through the first quarter of 2021.~~2020.

We expect ~~to remain on track~~ to successfully execute plans announced in March 2019 to ~~sell~~realize proceeds of approximately $1.5 billion from the sale of real estate by March 2022 as part of our capital strategy.

Non-GAAP Measures

Adjusted Earnings Before Interest Expense, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA") and EBITDA

We use the terms Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA throughout this quarterly report. Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA, as we define them, are non-GAAP measures. We define consolidated Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to Hyatt Hotels Corporation plus our pro rata share of unconsolidated owned and leased hospitality ~~ventures~~ventures' Adjusted EBITDA based on our ownership percentage of each owned and leased venture, adjusted to exclude the following items:

•interest expense;

•benefit (provision) for income taxes;

•depreciation and amortization;

~~amortization of management and franchise agreement assets constituting payments to customers ("~~•Contra ~~revenue");~~revenue;

•revenues for the reimbursement of costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties;

•costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised ~~properties;~~properties that we intend to recover over the long term;

•equity earnings (losses) from unconsolidated hospitality ventures;

•stock-based compensation expense;

•gains ~~(losses)~~ on sales of real estate;

•asset impairments; and

•other income (loss), net.

We calculate consolidated Adjusted EBITDA by adding the Adjusted EBITDA of each of our reportable segments and eliminations to corporate and other Adjusted EBITDA.

Our board of directors and executive management team focus on Adjusted EBITDA as a key performance and compensation measure both on a segment and on a consolidated basis. Adjusted EBITDA assists us in comparing our performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis because it removes from our operating results the impact of items that do not reflect our core operations both on a segment and on a consolidated basis. Our President and Chief Executive Officer, who is our CODM, also evaluates the performance of each of our reportable segments and determines how to allocate resources to those segments, in significant part, by assessing the Adjusted EBITDA of each segment. In addition, the compensation committee of our board of directors determines the annual variable compensation for certain members of our management based in part on consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, segment Adjusted EBITDA, or some combination of both.

We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it provides investors the same information that we use internally for purposes of assessing our operating performance and making compensation decisions and facilitates our comparison of results before these items with results from other companies within our industry.

Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain items that can vary widely across different industries and among companies within the same industry. For instance, interest expense and ~~provision~~benefit (provision) for income taxes are dependent upon company specifics, including capital structure, credit ratings, tax policies, and jurisdictions in which they operate, and therefore, can vary significantly across companies. Depreciation and amortization ~~as well as Contra revenue,~~ are dependent on company policies including how the assets are utilized as well as the lives assigned to the ~~assets.~~assets, and Contra revenue is dependent on company policies and strategic decisions regarding payments to hotel owners. We exclude revenues for the reimbursement of costs and costs incurred on behalf of managed and franchised properties which relate to the reimbursement of payroll costs and for system-wide services and programs that we operate for the benefit of our hotel owners as contractually we do not provide services or operate the related programs to generate a profit over the terms of the respective contracts. Over the long term, these programs and services are not designed to impact our economics, either positively or negatively. Therefore, we exclude the net impact when evaluating period-over-period changes in our operating results. Adjusted EBITDA includes costs incurred on behalf of our managed and franchised properties related to system-wide services and programs that we

Table of Contents

do not intend to recover from hotel owners. We exclude stock-based compensation expense to remove the variability amongst companies resulting from different compensation plans companies have adopted. Finally, we exclude other items that are not core to our operations, such as asset impairments and unrealized and realized gains and losses on marketable securities.

Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA are not substitutes for net income (loss) attributable to Hyatt Hotels Corporation, net income (loss), or any other measure prescribed by GAAP. There are limitations to using non-GAAP measures such as Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA. Although we believe that Adjusted EBITDA can make an evaluation of our operating performance more consistent because it removes items that do not reflect our core operations, other companies in our industry may define Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do. As a result, it may be difficult to use Adjusted EBITDA or similarly named non-GAAP measures that other companies may use to compare the performance of those companies to our performance. Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of the income generated by our business. Our management compensates for these limitations by reference to our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA supplementally. See our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss) in our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report.

See below for a reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to Hyatt Hotels Corporation to EBITDA and a reconciliation of EBITDA to consolidated Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses

Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses, as we define it, is a non-GAAP measure. Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses exclude the impact of deferred compensation plans funded through rabbi trusts and stock-based compensation expense. Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses assist us in comparing our performance over various reporting periods on a consistent basis because it removes from our operating results the impact of items that do not reflect our core operations, both on a segment and consolidated basis. See "—Results of Operations" for a reconciliation of selling, general, and administrative expenses to Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses.

Comparable hotels

"Comparable system-wide hotels" represents all properties we manage or franchise (including owned and leased properties) and that are operated for the entirety of the periods being compared and that have not sustained substantial damage, business interruption, or undergone large scale renovations during the periods being compared or for which comparable results are not available. Hotels that have temporarily suspended operations due to the COVID-19 pandemic are included in our definition of comparable system-wide hotels. We may use

variations of comparable system-wide hotels to specifically refer to comparable system-wide Americas full service or select service hotels for those properties that we manage or franchise within the Americas management and franchising segment, comparable system-wide ASPAC full service or select service hotels for those properties we manage or franchise within the ASPAC management and franchising segment, or comparable system-wide ~~EAME~~ EAME/SW Asia full service or select service hotels for those properties that we manage or franchise within the EAME/SW Asia management and franchising segment. "Comparable owned and leased hotels" represents all properties we own or lease and that are operated and consolidated for the entirety of the periods being compared and have not sustained substantial damage, business interruption, or undergone large scale renovations during the periods being compared or for which comparable results are not available. Hotels that have temporarily suspended operations due to the COVID-19 pandemic are included in our definition of comparable owned and leased hotels. Comparable system-wide hotels and comparable owned and leased hotels are commonly used as a basis of measurement in our industry. "Non-comparable system-wide hotels" or "non-comparable owned and leased hotels" represent all hotels that do not meet the respective definition of "comparable" as defined above.

Constant dollar currency

We report the results of our operations both on an as-reported basis, as well as on a constant dollar basis. Constant dollar currency, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes the effects of movements in foreign currency exchange rates between comparative periods. We believe constant dollar analysis provides valuable information regarding our results as it removes currency fluctuations from our operating results. We calculate constant dollar currency by restating prior-period local currency financial results at the current period's exchange rates. These restated amounts are then compared to our current period reported amounts to provide operationally driven variances in our results.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

We finance our business primarily with existing cash, short-term investments, and cash generated from our operations. As part of our long-term business strategy, we use net proceeds from dispositions to support our acquisitions and new investment opportunities as well as return capital to our shareholders when appropriate. If we deem necessary, we borrow cash under our revolving credit facility or from other third-party sources and may also raise funds by issuing debt or equity securities. We maintain a cash investment policy that emphasizes preservation of capital.

The COVID-19 pandemic and related travel restrictions and other containment efforts have had a significant impact on ~~the~~ travel ~~industry~~and lodging and hospitality industries and, as a result, on our business, results of operations, cash flows, and ~~cash flows.~~financial condition. Given the uncertainty and dynamic nature of the situation, we cannot currently estimate the ultimate financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and have therefore taken significant actions to manage operating expenses and cash flows consistent with business needs and demand levels. Those actions include the reduction of (i) capital expenditures; (ii) selling, general, and administrative expenses, including permanent reductions in staffing ~~levels consistent with reduced revenue expectations;~~levels; (iii) a significant portion of owned and leased hotels ~~expenses;~~expense; and (iv) costs incurred on behalf of our third-party ~~owners; and (v) the suspension of~~owners. We also suspended our quarterly dividend and all share repurchases.

~~In addition, on April 21, 2020,~~On March 18, 2021, we entered into the Revolver ~~Amendment~~Amendment. See Part I, Item 1 "Financial Statements—Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" and ~~issued the 2025 Notes and the 2030 Notes. See~~ our Current ~~Reports~~Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on ~~April 21, 2020 and April 24, 2020, respectively,~~March 22, 2021, which is incorporated in this quarterly report by reference, for more information related to ~~our revolving credit facility amendment and notes offering. Based on these actions, we~~the Revolver Amendment. We believe that our cash position, short-term investments, and cash from operations, together with borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility and our access to the capital markets, will be adequate to meet all of our funding requirements and capital deployment objectives for the foreseeable future. Our cash burn for the three months ended June 30, 2020 was lower than expected, due in large part to fewer working capital needs from third-party owners and improved cash management at owned hotels. Based on these results, assuming no improvement in operating conditions, we believe we have sufficient liquidity to fund our operations for at least the next 36 months at second quarter 2020 demand levels.

We may, from time to time, seek to retire or purchase ~~additional amounts of~~ our outstanding equity and/or debt securities through cash purchases and/or exchanges for other securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, including pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan or an accelerated share repurchase transaction. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, restrictions in our existing or future

We define net debt as total debt less the total of cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments. We consider net debt and its components to be an important indicator of liquidity and a guiding measure of capital structure strategy. Net debt is a non-GAAP measure and may not be computed the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies. The following table provides a summary of our debt to capital ratios:

Capital Expenditures

We routinely make capital expenditures to enhance our business. We classify our capital expenditures into maintenance and technology, enhancements to existing properties, and investment in new properties under development or recently opened. We have been, and will continue to be, ~~prudent~~disciplined with respect to our capital spending, taking into account our cash flow from operations. ~~In 2020, we have reduced discretionary capital expenditures as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.~~

Maintenance and technology	$	10	$	13
Enhancements to existing properties	9		27

~~As noted above, in~~In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact to our business, we have taken actions to reduce capital expenditures. We expect to maintain conservative levels of capital expenditures ~~in 2020. The decrease in maintenance and technology expenditures is driven by decreased technology spending.~~during 2021 due to a continuation of demand pressure resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The decrease in enhancements to existing properties is driven by a decrease in discretionary hotel renovations. The decrease in investment in new properties under development or recently opened is primarily driven by a decrease in renovation spend at ~~two~~a Miraval ~~properties.~~property and the development of Hyatt Centric Center City Philadelphia and adjacent parking and retail space in 2020.

Revolving Credit Facility

The revolving credit facility is intended to provide financing for working capital and general corporate purposes, including permitted investments and acquisitions. At ~~June 30, 2020~~both March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we had no balance outstanding. See Part I, Item 1 "Financial Statements—Note 109 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements."

We are in compliance with all applicable covenants under the revolving credit facility at ~~June 30, 2020.~~March 31, 2021.

On ~~April 21, 2020,~~March 18, 2021, we entered into the Revolver Amendment. See Part I, Item 1 "Financial Statements—Note 109 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" and our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on ~~April 21, 2020~~March 22 , 202 1, which is incorporated in this quarterly report by reference, for more information related to the Revolver Amendment.

Letters of Credit

We issue letters of credit either under the revolving credit facility or directly with financial institutions. We had ~~$255~~$237 million and ~~$263~~$234 million in letters of credit issued directly with financial institutions outstanding at ~~June 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. ~~These~~At March 31, 2021, these letters of credit had weighted-average fees of approximately ~~144~~141 basis points and ~~a range~~maturity dates of ~~maturity of up to approximately two years at June 30, 2020.~~less than one year.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts and related disclosures. We have disclosed those estimates that we believe are critical and require the use of complex judgment in their application in our ~~2019~~2020 Form 10-K, with additional considerations below.

~~Loyalty Program Future Redemption Obligation~~Income Taxes

Judgment is required in assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our condensed consolidated financial statements or tax returns (e.g., realization of deferred tax assets, changes in tax laws, or interpretations thereof). In addition, we are subject to examination of our income tax returns by the IRS and other tax authorities. A change in the assessment of the outcomes of such matters could materially impact our condensed consolidated financial statements.

We ~~utilize an actuary~~evaluate tax positions taken or expected to ~~assist~~be taken on a tax return to determine whether they are "more likely than not" of being sustained assuming that the tax reporting positions will be examined by taxing authorities with full knowledge of all relevant information prior to recording the ~~valuation~~related tax benefit in our condensed consolidated financial statements. If a position does not meet the "more likely than not" standard, the benefit cannot be recognized. Assumptions, judgment, and the use of estimates are required in determining if the "more likely than

Table of Contents

not" standard has been met when developing the provision for income taxes. A change in the assessment of the "more likely than not" standard with respect to a position could materially impact our condensed consolidated financial statements. See Part I, Item 1, "Financial Statements—Note 11 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements."

Deferred Income Taxes – Valuation Allowance

On a quarterly basis, we assess the realizability of our deferred ~~revenue liability related~~tax assets and recognize a valuation allowance when it is "more likely than not" that some or all of our deferred tax assets are not realizable. This assessment is completed by tax jurisdiction and relies on the weight of both positive and negative evidence available with significant weight placed on recent financial results. Cumulative pre-tax losses for the three-year period are considered significant objective negative evidence that some or all of our deferred tax assets may not be realizable. Cumulative reported pre-tax income is considered objectively verifiable positive evidence of our ability to generate positive pre-tax income in the ~~loyalty program. As~~future. In accordance with GAAP, when there is a ~~result~~recent history of pre-tax losses, there is little or no weight placed on forecasts for purposes of assessing the recoverability of our deferred tax assets. When necessary, we use systematic and logical methods to estimate when deferred tax liabilities will reverse and generate taxable income and when deferred tax assets will reverse and generate tax deductions. Assumptions, judgment, and the use of estimates are required when scheduling the reversal of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and the exercise is inherently complex and subjective.

We generated significant pre-tax losses in 2020 and the first quarter of 2021 due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and during the three months ended March 31, 2021, we ~~revised~~entered into a three-year U.S. cumulative loss position. We expect the cumulative three-year loss position may continue in 2021 as 2018 pre-tax income is replaced by 2021 results. As a result of our ~~estimate~~three-year U.S. cumulative loss and the scheduling estimates discussed above, we recognized a $193 million valuation allowance during the three months ended March 31, 2021. If we continue to generate losses in future periods, additional valuation allowances may be required that could have an adverse impact on our net income (loss). When pre-tax income returns to normalized levels, we will consider the pre-tax income as positive evidence weighted within our analysis to evaluate the realizability of our U.S. deferred tax asset balances and determine whether a portion of the ~~anticipated~~valuation allowance can be reversed. However, significant judgment will be required to determine the timing and amount of our future point redemptions over the next 12 months, which resulted in a $134 million reclassification of our deferred revenue liability related to the loyalty program from current at December 31, 2019 to long-term at June 30, 2020.

~~Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets~~

Historically, changes in estimates used in our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset valuations have not resulted in material impairment charges in subsequent periods. However, the extent, duration, and magnitudeany reversal of the COVID-19 pandemic will depend on factors such as the impact of the pandemic on global and regional economies, travel, and economic activity, as well as actions taken by governments, businesses, and individuals in response to the pandemic or any resurgence. At June 30, 2020, a 10% decline in the underlying cash flows or a 1% increase in the discount rates or terminal capitalization rates would not result in an impairment of goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets as we have sufficient coverage in excess of our carrying values. However, future impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic are highly uncertain and difficult to predict, and the loss of management agreement contracts or changes in our intent with respect to certain assets could resultvaluation allowance in future ~~impairment charges~~periods. See Part I, Item 1, "Financial Statements—Note 11 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements."

Table of ~~up to $20 million for certain indefinite-lived intangible assets.~~ Contents

~~Property and Equipment and Operating Lease Right-of-Use Assets~~

We assess property and equipment and operating lease right-of-use assets for impairment quarterly, and when events or circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable, we evaluate the net book value of the assets by comparing to the projected undiscounted cash flows of the asset. At June 30, 2020, all of our property and equipment and operating lease right-of-use assets were supportable. However, as noted above, the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic are highly uncertain and difficult to predict, and they may change the estimates and assumptions used in our cash flow projections, which could result in future impairment charges.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risk primarily from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. In certain situations, we seek to reduce earnings and cash flow volatility associated with changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates by entering into financial arrangements to provide a hedge against a portion of the risks associated with such volatility. We continue to have exposure to such risks to the extent they are not hedged. We enter into derivative financial arrangements to the extent they meet the objectives described above, and we do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. At ~~June 30, 2020,~~March 31, 2021, we were a party to hedging transactions, including the use of derivative financial instruments, as discussed below.

Interest Rate Risk

In the normal course of business, we are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes due to our borrowing activities. Our objective is to manage the risk of interest rate changes on the results of operations, cash flows, and the market value of our debt by creating an appropriate balance between our fixed and floating-rate debt. We enter into interest rate derivative transactions from time to time, including interest rate swaps and interest rate locks, in order to maintain a level of exposure to interest rate variability that we deem acceptable.

On April 21, 2020, we settled the outstanding interest rate locks upon issuance of the 2030 Notes. See Part I, Item 1 "Financial Statements—Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements" and had no outstanding interest rate locks at June 30, 2020. At ~~June 30, 2020~~both March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, we did not hold any interest rate swap ~~contracts.~~contracts or have outstanding interest rate locks.

The following table sets forth the contractual maturities and the total fair values at ~~June 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 for our financial instruments materially affected by interest rate risk:

(3) Includes Grand Hyatt Rio de Janeiro construction loan which had a 6.38% interest rate at March 31, 2021.

Foreign Currency Exposures and Exchange Rate Instruments

We transact business in various foreign currencies and utilize foreign currency forward contracts to offset our exposure associated with the fluctuations of certain foreign currencies. The U.S. dollar equivalents of the notional ~~amounts~~amount of the outstanding forward contracts, the majority of which relate to intercompany transactions, with terms of less than one year, were ~~$163~~$184 million and ~~$194~~$172 million at ~~June 30, 2020~~March 31, 2021 and December 31, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively.

We intend to offset the gains and losses related to our third-party debt and intercompany transactions with gains or losses on our foreign currency forward contracts such that there is a negligible effect on our annual net income (loss). Our exposure to market risk has not materially changed from what we previously disclosed in our ~~2019~~2020 Form 10-K.

For the three ~~and six~~ months ended ~~June 30,~~March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, the effects of these derivative instruments resulted in a$3 million of net ~~loss~~losses and $8 million of ~~$1 million and a~~ net ~~gain of $7 million,~~gains, respectively, recognized in other income (loss), net on our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss). For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, the effects of these derivative instruments resulted in net gains of $4 million and $5 million, respectively, recognized in other income (loss), net of our condensed consolidated statements of income (loss). We offset the gains and losses on our foreign currency forward contracts with gains and losses related to our intercompany loans and transactions, such that there is a negligible effect to our net income (loss). At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had $0 and $10 million of liabilities, respectively, related to these derivative instruments recorded in accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. In accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) of the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.

There has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the Company's most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

We are involved in various claims and lawsuits arising in the normal course of business, including proceedings involving tort and other general liability claims, workers' compensation and other employee claims, intellectual property claims, and claims related to our management of certain hotel properties. Most occurrences involving liability, claims of negligence, and employees are covered by insurance, in each case, with solvent insurance carriers. We recognize a liability when we believe the loss is probable and reasonably estimable. We currently believe that the ultimate outcome of such lawsuits and proceedings will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

In March 2018, a putative class action was filed against the Company and several other hotel companies in federal district court in Illinois, Case No. 1:18-cv-01959, seeking an unspecified amount of damages and equitable relief for an alleged violation of the federal antitrust laws. In December 2018, a second lawsuit was filed against the Company by TravelPass Group, LLC, Partner Fusion, Inc., and Reservation Counter, LLC in federal district court in Texas, Case No. 5:18-cv-00153, for an alleged violation of federal antitrust laws arising from similar conduct alleged in the Illinois case and seeking an unspecified amount of monetary damages. The Company disputes the allegations ~~in these lawsuits~~ and will defend its interests vigorously. We currently do not believe the ultimate outcome of this litigation will have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operation, or liquidity.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

At ~~June 30, 2020~~,March 31, 2021, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in

response to Item 1A to Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2019 and Item 1A to Part II of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31,~~ 2020.

Item 5. Other Information.

~~None.~~On May 4, 2021, we filed a Certificate of Retirement with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to retire 1,415,000 shares of Class B common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company. Of the 1,415,000 shares of Class B common stock, 500,000 shares were converted into shares of Class A common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company, in connection with a conversion by stockholder, and 915,000 shares were converted into shares of Class A common stock in connection with sales by certain selling stockholders into the public market pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation requires that any shares of Class B common stock that are converted into shares of Class A common stock be retired and may not be reissued.

Effective upon filing, the Certificate of Retirement amended the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company to reduce the total authorized number of shares of capital stock of the Company by 1,415,000 shares. The total number of authorized shares of the Company is now 1,402,618,330, such shares consisting of 1,000,000,000 shares designated Class A common stock, 392,618,330 shares designated Class B common stock, and 10,000,000 shares designated Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share.
