On December 5, 2016, Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc.
(Hilton) issued a press release announcing that its Board of Directors (the Board) approved the distribution to Hiltons stockholders of all of the outstanding shares of Park Hotels & Resorts Inc.
(Park), which will become the holder of a portfolio of hotels and resorts previously held by Hilton, and Hilton Grand Vacations Inc. (HGV), Hiltons timeshare business. Hilton stockholders of record will receive one
share of Park common stock for each five shares of Hilton common stock and one share of HGV common stock for each 10 shares of Hilton common stock held at the close of business on December 15, 2016, the record date for the distribution. The
spin-off
transactions are expected to be completed on January 3, 2017, and Park and HGV are expected to begin
regular-way
trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the
ticker symbols PK and HGV, respectively, on January 4, 2017.
Hilton also announced that, following its stockholders October
2016 approval of three alternative amendments to Hiltons amended and restated certificate of incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of Hilton common stock at a ratio determined by the Board, the Board has approved a
1-for-3
reverse stock split. The reverse stock split will be effective after market close on January 3, 2017.
The press release announcing these matters is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
