Shares of timeshare vacation company Hilton Grand Vacations (NYSE:HGV) fell 3.9% in the morning session after the company announced the pricing of a secondary public offering of 7 million shares. The offering involves shares held by entities affiliated with major investment firm Apollo Global Management, meaning Hilton Grand Vacations itself is not selling any new stock and will not receive any proceeds.

To help offset this, the company authorized the concurrent repurchase of up to $40 million of its own shares. However, this news comes after a recent second-quarter 2025 earnings miss, which may have amplified investor concerns.
