Current report

The Company remains below its optimal booked position for the next 12 months, as it continues to experience pressure from softer demand at Norwegian Cruise Line related to Company-specific execution challenges, as well as the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. As we look ahead, the full amenities at the Company’s private island, Great Stirrup Cay, will be open to the public beginning September 4, including the pier and the new Great Tides Waterpark, the Great Life Lagoon and the nearby Splash Harbor, which we expect will improve demand to Caribbean itineraries over time.

Current report

In July 2026, we entered into a memorandum of agreement for the sale of Oceania Sirena. The terms of the memorandum stipulate that the closing of the sale will take place during the three months ended September 30, 2026. In addition, a bareboat charter agreement is anticipated to be executed for Oceania Cruises to continue operating the vessel through the spring of 2028.

Previous report

The Company remains below its optimal booking range following certain execution missteps, exacerbated by softer demand related to heightened geopolitical uncertainty. Recent events related to the conflict in the Middle East have impacted bookings across all three brands, especially in Europe during the summer season. While the near-term environment remains challenging, the Company is taking targeted actions to better align commercial strategy, including

We use certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted Gross Margin, Net Yield, Net Cruise Cost, Adjusted Net Cruise Cost Excluding Fuel, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS, to enable us to analyze our performance. See “Terminology” for the definitions of these and other non-GAAP financial measures. We utilize Adjusted Gross Margin and Net Yield to manage our business on a day-to-day basis because they reflect revenue earned net of certain direct variable costs. We also utilize Net Cruise Cost and Adjusted Net Cruise Cost Excluding Fuel to manage our business on a day-to-day basis. In measuring our ability to control costs in a manner that positively impacts net income, we believe changes in Adjusted Gross Margin, Net Yield, Net Cruise Cost and Adjusted Net Cruise Cost Excluding Fuel to be the most relevant indicators of our performance.

Previous wording

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate as a supplemental financial measure as it is used by management to assess operating performance. We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure in determining our performance as it reflects certain operating drivers of our business, such as sales growth, operating costs, marketing, general and administrative expense and other operating income and expense. In addition, management uses Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure for our incentive compensation. Adjusted EBITDA is not a defined term under GAAP nor is it intended to be a measure of liquidity or cash flows from operations or a measure comparable to net income as it does not take into account certain requirements such as capital expenditures and related depreciation, principal and interest payments and tax payments and it includes other supplemental adjustments.

Previous wording

In addition, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain amounts and are used to supplement GAAP net income (loss) and EPS. We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS as key performance measures of our earnings performance. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparison to our historical performance. In addition, management uses Adjusted EPS as a performance measure for our incentive compensation. The amounts excluded in the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures may vary from period to period; accordingly, our presentation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS may not be indicative of future adjustments or results. For example, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, we had an expense of $12.2 million related to restructuring costs. We included this as an adjustment in the reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income since the loss is not representative of our day-to-day operations, and this adjustment did not occur and is not included in the comparative period presented within this report.

Previous wording

In 2025 and 2026, we drew down on euro-denominated debt for three newbuilds that is primarily unhedged, and we expect to take delivery of ships that have euro-denominated debt in the future. Due to the significant increase in our euro-denominated debt in 2025 and 2026 and the fact that a substantial portion of our debt is in dollars, we have included the related net foreign currency remeasurement losses as a supplemental adjustment in our calculation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS. To ensure comparability, we have retrospectively applied this adjustment to the corresponding periods in 2025, using a consistent methodology. The quantitative impact of these adjustments is presented in the accompanying reconciliation tables within this report. Non-GAAP diluted weighted-average shares are calculated using the treasury stock method to calculate the effect of restricted share units and options and the if-converted method to calculate the effect of convertible instruments. This is the same methodology that is used when calculating GAAP diluted weighted-average shares. However, the determination of whether the shares are dilutive or anti-dilutive is made independently on a GAAP and non-GAAP net income or loss basis, and therefore, the number of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for GAAP and non-GAAP may be different.

Our strategic cost optimization efforts are driving a disciplined, company-wide focus on identifying efficiencies and optimizing costs across the organization. These initiatives are designed to deliver sustainable long-term value creation without compromising the guest experience or the quality of our offerings. We are taking steps to streamline the organization and better align resources in a manner that is expected to simultaneously drive revenue growth and manage costs, including executing savings initiatives targeting $125 million in expected annual savings within marketing, general and administrative expense. These are long-term structural actions that we believe will help offset near-term pressures and position the business for stronger performance over time. Beyond the financial impact, these efforts represent an evolution in our culture, embedding cost awareness, accountability, and continuous improvement into the way we operate.

Current wording

Our strategic cost optimization efforts are driving a disciplined, company-wide focus on identifying efficiencies and optimizing costs across the organization to expand margins. These initiatives are designed to deliver sustainable long-term value creation without compromising the guest experience or the quality of our offerings. We previously announced that we are taking steps to streamline the organization and better align resources in a manner that is expected to simultaneously drive revenue growth and manage costs, including executing savings initiatives targeting $125 million in expected annualized savings within marketing, general and administrative expense. These are long-term structural actions that we believe will help offset near-term pressures and position the business for stronger performance over time. During the second quarter of 2026, we’ve advanced the Company’s global business sourcing strategy through the consolidation of technology vendors as well as other salary and benefit savings, generating approximately $100 million of additional expected annualized run-rate savings, primarily from capital expenditures and marketing, general and administrative expense. The benefits of these latest incremental savings are expected to be realized over time and will have a limited impact on 2026 financial results. Beyond the financial impact, these efforts represent an evolution in our culture, embedding cost awareness, accountability, and continuous improvement into the way we operate.

Previous wording

While macroeconomic and geopolitical headwinds and events, such as the conflict involving Iran, or misalignment between our commercial strategy and deployment have and may put pressures on revenue and fuel costs, we believe these impacts may be at least partially offset through the continued execution of our cost optimization efforts as well as our hedging strategy. Fuel is approximately 51% hedged for 2026, which we believe helps mitigate a portion of near-term fuel price volatility. Our focus remains on managing the business for the long term, balancing disciplined pricing and cost control with guest experience and strategic investments for the future. Furthermore, we are exposed to fluctuations in the euro exchange rate for certain portions of ship construction contracts, euro-denominated debt and various exchange rates for customer deposits that have not been hedged. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.

Fuel is approximately 52% hedged for the remainder of 2026, which we believe helps mitigate a portion of near-term fuel price volatility.

Previous wording

Based on our liquidity estimates and our current resources, we have concluded we have sufficient liquidity to satisfy our obligations for at least the next 12 months. There can be no assurance that the accuracy of the assumptions used to estimate our liquidity requirements will be correct, and our ability to be predictive is uncertain due to the dynamic nature of the current operating environment, including any current macroeconomic events and conditions such as inflation, tariff increases and trade wars, rising fuel prices and higher interest rates. Within the next 12 months, we may optimize our liquidity or pursue other refinancings in order to reduce interest expense and/or extend debt maturities. We expect to repay each of the remaining 2027 1.125% Exchangeable Notes and 2027 2.5% Exchangeable Notes in cash or refinance prior to maturity. There is no assurance that cash flows from operations and additional financings will be available in the future to fund our future obligations. Beyond the next 12 months, we will pursue refinancings and other balance sheet optimization transactions in order to reduce interest expense and/or extend debt maturities. Refer to “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for further details regarding risks and uncertainties that may cause our results to differ from our expectations.

As of March 31,2026, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants. If we do not continue to remain in compliance with our covenants, we would have to seek additional amendments to or waivers of the covenants. However, no assurances can be made that such amendments or waivers would be approved by our lenders. Generally, if an event of default under any debt agreement occurs, then pursuant to cross default and/or cross acceleration clauses, substantially all of our outstanding debt and derivative contract payables could become due, and all debt and derivative contracts could be terminated, which would have a material adverse impact on our operations and liquidity.

We are currently contemplating additional long-term charters and ship sales. These types of agreements are being pursued as part of our ship disposal strategy for certain older vessels in our fleet.
