**CARNIVAL CORPORATION & PLC**

**NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

**(UNAUDITED)**

**NOTE 1 – General**

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc and their respective subsidiaries. Together with their consolidated subsidiaries, they are referred to collectively in these consolidated financial statements and elsewhere in this joint Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as "Carnival Corporation & plc," "our," "us" and "we."

***Basis of Presentation***

The consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in the opinion of our management, contain all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. The preparation of our interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed. We have made reasonable estimates and judgments of such items within our financial statements and there may be changes to those estimates in future periods. Our operations are seasonal and results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year.

Our interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in the Carnival Corporation & plc 2025 joint Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on January 27, 2026 ("Form 10-K").

For 2025, we reclassified certain immaterial amounts within both operating activities and investing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows to conform to the current year presentation. We also reclassified certain immaterial amounts in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss), Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss), Consolidated Balance Sheets, Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and Consolidated Statements of Shareholders' Equity in order to separately present amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests primarily associated with our subsidiaries that operate Isla Tropicale and Amber Cove.

***Property and Equipment***

We review estimated useful lives and residual values of our ships for reasonableness whenever events or circumstances indicate a revision is warranted. In December 2025, we completed such review considering the period over which we expect to operate our ships and our long-term plans. As a result, we determined our ships' depreciable lives would be extended to 35 years. In connection with the increase in estimated useful life, we reduced our estimated residual value of each ship to be 5% of our original ship cost for LNG powered ships and a range of salvage values under $25 million for all other ships, depending on the class and tonnage of the ship. This revision did not have a material impact on our financial statements and has been applied prospectively beginning December 1, 2025.

***Accounting Pronouncements***

In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued guidance, *Income Taxes - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*. This guidance requires disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction, as well as other amendments relating to income tax disclosures. This guidance is required to be adopted by us for our fiscal 2026 annual financial statements. We are evaluating the impact this guidance may have on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued guidance, *Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures - Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses*. This guidance requires annual and interim disclosure of disaggregated information for certain costs and expenses. This guidance is required to be adopted by us beginning with our fiscal 2028 annual financial statements and fiscal 2029 interim periods. We are evaluating the impact this guidance may have on our consolidated financial statements.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i5776d4401c88446abbb9af4b5f45382f_7)</u>

In July 2025, the FASB issued guidance, *Financial Instruments - Credit Losses - Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets.* This guidance provides a practical expedient permitting an entity to assume that conditions at the balance sheet date remain unchanged over the life of the asset when estimating expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets accounted for under *Revenue from Contracts with Customers*. This guidance is required to be adopted by us in the first quarter of 2027. We are evaluating the impact this guidance may have on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2025, the FASB issued guidance, *Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software - Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software*. This guidance removes references to software development stages. Entities will be required to start capitalizing software costs when (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and (ii) it is probable the project will be completed and the software will be used as intended. This guidance is required to be adopted by us in the first quarter of 2029. We are evaluating the impact this guidance may have on our consolidated financial statements.

**NOTE 2 – Revenue and Expense Recognition**

Guest cruise deposits and advance onboard purchases are initially included in Customer deposits when received. Customer deposits are subsequently recognized as cruise revenues, together with revenues from onboard and other activities, and all associated direct expenses of a voyage are recognized as cruise expenses, upon completion of voyages with durations of ten nights or less and on a pro rata basis for voyages in excess of ten nights. The impact of recognizing these shorter duration cruise revenues and expenses on a completed voyage basis versus on a pro rata basis is not material. Certain of our product offerings are bundled and we allocate the value of the bundled services and goods between Passenger ticket revenues and Onboard and other revenues based upon the estimated standalone selling prices of those goods and services. Future travel discount vouchers are included as a reduction of Passenger ticket revenues when such vouchers are utilized. Guest cancellation fees, when applicable, are recognized in Passenger ticket revenues at the time of cancellation.

Our sales to guests of air and other transportation to and from airports near the home ports of our ships are included in Passenger ticket revenues. The related expenses of these services are included in Prepaid expenses and other when paid prior to the start of a voyage and are subsequently recognized in Commissions, transportation and other expenses at the time of revenue recognition. We had prepaid air and other transportation expenses of $221 million as of February 28, 2026 and $233 million as of November 30, 2025. The proceeds that we collect from the sales of third-party shore excursions are included in Onboard and other revenues and the related expenses are included in Onboard and other expenses. The amounts collected on behalf of our onboard concessionaires, net of the amounts remitted to them, are included in Onboard and other revenues as concession revenues. All of these amounts are recognized on a completed voyage or pro rata basis as discussed above.

Fees, taxes and charges that vary with guest head counts are expensed in Commissions, transportation and other expenses when the corresponding revenues are recognized. The remaining portion of fees, taxes and charges are expensed in Other operating expenses when the corresponding revenues are recognized.

Revenues and expenses from our hotel and transportation operations, which are included in our Tour and Other segment, are recognized at the time the services are performed.

***Revenues by Country***

Revenue by country, which are based on where our guests are sourced, were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Three Months Ended** <br>**February 28,** | **Three Months Ended** <br>**February 28,** |
| *(in millions)* | **2026** | **2025** |
| United States | $3293 | $3185 |
| Germany | 821 | 683 |
| United Kingdom | 778 | 670 |
| Other (a) | 1274 | 1272 |
|  | $6165 | $5810 |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)No other individual country's revenue exceeded 10% for the three months ended February 28, 2026 and 2025.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i5776d4401c88446abbb9af4b5f45382f_7)</u>

***Customer Deposits***

Our payment terms generally require an initial deposit to confirm a reservation, with the balance due prior to the voyage. We also offer our guests the opportunity to make advance purchases of certain onboard and other services. Cash received from guests in advance of the cruise is recorded in Customer deposits and in Other long-term liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. These amounts include refundable deposits. We had total customer deposits of $7.9 billion as of February 28, 2026 and $7.2 billion as of November 30, 2025. Our customer deposits balance changes due to the seasonal nature of cash collections, which typically results from higher ticket prices and occupancy levels during the third quarter, the recognition of revenue, refunds of customer deposits and foreign currency changes.

***Trade and Other Receivables***

Although we generally require full payment from our customers prior to or concurrently with their cruise, we grant credit terms to a relatively small portion of our revenue source. We have receivables from credit card merchants and travel agents for cruise ticket purchases and onboard revenue. These receivables are included within Trade and other receivables, net and are less allowances for expected credit losses.

***Contract Costs***

We recognize incremental travel agent commissions and credit and debit card fees incurred as a result of obtaining the ticket contract as assets when paid prior to the start of a voyage. We record these amounts within Prepaid expenses and other and subsequently recognize these amounts as Commissions, transportation and other at the time of revenue recognition or at the time of voyage cancellation. We had incremental costs of obtaining contracts with customers recognized as assets of $393 million as of February 28, 2026 and $363 million as of November 30, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)See "Convertible Notes" below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Includes applicable credit adjustment spread.

As of February 28, 2026, all of our outstanding debt is issued or guaranteed by substantially the same entities with the exception of the $1.8 billion of export credit facilities of Sun Princess Limited and Sun Princess II Limited, which do not guarantee our other outstanding debt.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i5776d4401c88446abbb9af4b5f45382f_7)</u>

| *(in millions)* | |
| **Year** | **Principal Payments** |
| Remainder of 2026 | $1055 |
| 2027 | 2535 |

| 2029 | 4168 |
| 2030 | 2913 |
| Thereafter | 11354 |
| Total | $26004 |

---

***Revolving Facility***

As of February 28, 2026 we had $4.5 billion available for borrowings under the Revolving Facility. We may borrow or utilize available amounts under the Revolving Facility through June 2030, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions in the facility.

***Export Credit Facilities***

As of February 28, 2026, we had $10.9 billion of undrawn export credit facilities to fund ship deliveries planned through 2033. As of February 28, 2026, the net book value of our ships subject to negative pledges was $19.4 billion.

***Collateral Pool***

As of February 28, 2026, the net book value of our ships and ship improvements, excluding ships under construction, is $40.7 billion. Our secured debt is secured on a first-priority basis by certain collateral, which includes ships and certain assets related to those ships and material intellectual property (combined net book value of approximately $22.5 billion, including $20.8 billion related to ships and certain assets related to those ships as of February 28, 2026) and certain other assets.

***Convertible Notes***

In December 2025, we settled $1.1 billion principal amount of the 2027 Convertible Notes, resulting in the issuance of 69.1 million shares of Carnival Corporation common stock and a cash payment of $500 million.

***Covenant Compliance***

As of February 28, 2026, the most restrictive covenants for our Revolving Facility, unsecured loans and export credit facilities include the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Maintain minimum interest coverage (adjusted EBITDA to consolidated net interest charges, as defined in the agreements) at a ratio of not less than 3.0 to 1.0

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Maintain minimum issued capital and consolidated reserves (as defined in the agreements) of $5.0 billion

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Limit our debt to capital (as defined in the agreements) percentage to a percentage not to exceed 65%

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Maintain minimum liquidity of $1.5 billion

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Limit the amounts of our secured assets as well as secured and other indebtedness

At February 28, 2026, we were in compliance with the applicable covenants under our debt agreements. Generally, if an event of default under any debt agreement occurs, then, pursuant to cross-default and/or cross-acceleration clauses therein, substantially all of our outstanding debt could become due, and our debt could be terminated. Any financial covenant amendment may lead to increased costs, increased interest rates, additional restrictive covenants and other available lender protections that would be applicable.

**NOTE 4 – Contingencies and Commitments**

**Litigation**

We are routinely involved in legal proceedings, claims, disputes, regulatory matters and governmental inspections or investigations arising in the ordinary course of or incidental to our business. We have insurance coverage for certain of these claims and actions, or any settlement of these claims and actions, and historically the maximum amount of our liability, net of any insurance recoverables, has been limited to our self-insurance retention levels.

We record provisions in the consolidated financial statements for pending litigation when we determine that an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.

Legal proceedings and government investigations are subject to inherent uncertainties, and unfavorable rulings or other events could occur. Unfavorable resolutions could involve substantial monetary damages. In addition, in matters for which conduct remedies are sought, unfavorable resolutions could include an injunction or other order prohibiting us from selling one or more products at all or in particular ways, precluding particular business practices or requiring other remedies. An unfavorable outcome might result in a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations, financial position or liquidity.

As previously disclosed, on May 2, 2019, the Havana Docks Corporation filed a lawsuit against Carnival Corporation in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida under Title III of the Cuban Liberty and Democratic Solidarity Act, also known as the Helms-Burton Act, alleging that Carnival Corporation "trafficked" in confiscated Cuban property when certain ships docked at certain ports in Cuba, and that this alleged "trafficking" entitles the plaintiffs to treble damages. On March 21, 2022, the court granted summary judgment in favor of Havana Docks Corporation as to liability. On December 30, 2022, the court entered judgment against Carnival Corporation in the amount of $110 million plus $4 million in fees and costs. We appealed. On October 22, 2024, the Court of Appeals for the 11<sup>th</sup> Circuit reversed the District Court's judgment against us. On March 6, 2025, Havana Docks filed a petition for certiorari with the Supreme Court of the United States and we responded. On October 3, 2025, the Supreme Court accepted review of the case and heard arguments on February 23, 2026. We believe the ultimate outcome of this matter will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

As of February 28, 2026, two purported class actions brought against us by former guests in the Federal Court in Australia and in Italy remain pending, as previously disclosed. These actions include claims based on a variety of theories, including negligence, gross negligence and failure to warn, physical injuries and severe emotional distress associated with being exposed to and/or contracting COVID-19 onboard our ships. On October 24, 2023, the court in the Australian matter held that we were liable for negligence and for breach of consumer protection warranties as it relates to the lead plaintiff. The court ruled that the lead plaintiff was not entitled to any pain and suffering or emotional distress damages on the negligence claim and awarded medical costs. In relation to the consumer protection warranties claim, the court found that distress and disappointment damages amounted to no more than the refund already provided to guests and therefore made no further award. Further proceedings will determine the applicability of this ruling to the remaining class participants. On March 31, 2025, the court in the Italian matter returned a ruling rejecting most of the plaintiffs' claims and awarding a half-price fare reduction for certain passengers. Plaintiffs have appealed the ruling. We continue to take actions to defend against the above claims. We believe the ultimate outcome of these matters will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

**Regulatory or Governmental Inquiries and Investigations**

We have been, and may continue to be, impacted by breaches in data security and lapses in data privacy, which occur from time to time. These can vary in scope and range from inadvertent events to malicious motivated attacks.

We have incurred legal and other costs in connection with cyber incidents that have impacted us. The costs associated with cyber incidents over the last three years were not material. While past incidents did not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial position or liquidity, no assurances can be given about the future and we may be subject to future attacks, incidents or litigation that could have such a material adverse effect.

On March 14, 2022, the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency notified us of potential civil penalties and injunctive relief for alleged Clean Water Act violations by owned and operated vessels covered by the 2013 Vessel General Permit. We are working with these agencies to reach a resolution of this matter. We believe the ultimate outcome will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i5776d4401c88446abbb9af4b5f45382f_7)</u>

**Other Contingent Obligations**

Some of the debt contracts we enter into include indemnification provisions obligating us to make payments to the counterparty if certain events occur. These contingencies generally relate to changes in taxes or changes in laws which increase the lender's costs. There are no stated or notional amounts included in the indemnification clauses, and we are not able to estimate the maximum potential amount of future payments, if any, under these indemnification clauses.

We have agreements with a number of credit card processors that transact customer deposits related to our cruise vacations. Certain of these agreements allow the credit card processors to request, under certain circumstances, that we provide a capped reserve fund in cash. Although the agreements vary, these requirements may generally be satisfied either through a withheld percentage of customer payments or providing cash funds directly to the credit card processor. As of February 28, 2026 and November 30, 2025, we were not required to maintain any reserve funds or compensating deposits.

**Ship Commitments**

As of February 28, 2026, our new ship growth capital commitments were $0.5 billion for the remainder of 2026 and $1.6 billion, $1.5 billion, $1.9 billion, $1.7 billion and $4.9 billion for the years ending November 30, 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030 and thereafter.

**NOTE 5 – Fair Value Measurements and Financial Risks** 

**Fair Value Measurements**

Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and is measured using inputs in one of the following three categories:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 1 measurements are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access. Valuation of these items does not entail a significant amount of judgment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 2 measurements are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or market data other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 3 measurements are based on unobservable data that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Considerable judgment may be required in interpreting market data used to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, certain estimates of fair value presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in a current or future market exchange.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)The debt amounts above do not include the impact of debt issuance costs and discounts. The fair values of our publicly-traded notes were based on their unadjusted quoted market prices in markets that are not sufficiently active to be Level 1 and, accordingly, are considered Level 2. The fair values of our other debt were estimated based on current market interest rates being applied to this debt.

***Financial Instruments that are Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis***

Cash equivalents consisting of money market funds and cash investments with original maturities of less than 90 days were $0.9 billion as of February 28, 2026 and $1.4 billion as of November 30, 2025. These cash equivalents are considered Level 1 instruments.

***Nonfinancial Instruments that are Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis***

**Valuation of Goodwill and Trademarks**

**Financial Risks**

***Fuel Price Risks***

We manage our exposure to fuel price risk by managing our consumption of fuel. Substantially all of our exposure to market risk for changes in fuel prices relates to the consumption of fuel on our ships. We manage fuel consumption through fleet optimization, energy efficiency, itinerary efficiency, new technologies and alternative fuels.

***Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risks***

**Overall Strategy**

We manage our exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates through our normal operating and financing activities, including netting certain exposures to take advantage of any natural offsets and, when considered appropriate, through the use of derivative and non-derivative financial instruments. Our primary focus is to monitor our exposure to, and manage, the economic foreign currency exchange risks faced by our operations and realized if we exchange one currency for another. We consider hedging certain of our ship commitments and net investments in foreign operations. The financial impacts of our hedging instruments generally offset the changes in the underlying exposures being hedged.

***Operational Currency Risks***

Our operations primarily utilize the U.S. dollar, Euro, Sterling or the Australian dollar as their functional currencies. Our operations also have revenue and expenses denominated in non-functional currencies. Movements in foreign currency exchange rates affect our consolidated financial statements.

***Investment Currency Risks***

We consider our investments in foreign operations to be denominated in stable currencies and of a long-term nature. We have euro-denominated debt which provides an economic offset for our operations with euro functional currency. In addition, we have in the past and may in the future utilize derivative financial instruments, such as cross currency swaps, to manage our exposure to investment currency risks.

***Newbuild Currency Risks***

Our shipbuilding contracts are typically denominated in euros. At February 28, 2026, our newbuild currency exchange rate risk relates to euro-denominated newbuild contract payments for non-euro functional currency cruise lines. The cost of shipbuilding orders that we may place in the future that are denominated in a different currency than the functional currency of the cruise line will be affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. These foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations may affect our decision to order new cruise ships. We have in the past and may in the future utilize derivative financial instruments, such as foreign currency derivatives, to manage our exposure to newbuild currency risks. Our decisions to hedge non-functional currency ship commitments for our cruise lines are made on a case-by-case basis, considering the amount and duration of the exposure, market volatility, economic trends, our overall expected net cash flows by currency and other offsetting risks.

***Interest Rate Risks***

We manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates through our debt portfolio management and investment strategies. We evaluate our debt portfolio to determine whether to make periodic adjustments to the mix of fixed and floating rate debt through the use of interest rate swaps, refinancing of existing debt and the issuance of new debt.

***Concentrations of Credit Risk***

As part of our ongoing control procedures, we monitor concentrations of credit risk associated with financial and other institutions with which we conduct significant business. We seek to manage these credit risk exposures, including counterparty nonperformance primarily associated with our cash and cash equivalents, investments, notes receivables, reserve funds related to customer deposits (when required), future financing facilities, contingent obligations, derivative instruments, insurance contracts and new ship progress payment guarantees, by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Conducting business with well-established financial institutions, insurance companies and export credit agencies

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Diversifying our counterparties

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Having guidelines regarding credit ratings and investment maturities that we follow to help safeguard liquidity and minimize risk

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Generally requiring collateral and/or guarantees to support notes receivable on significant asset sales and new ship progress payments to shipyards

We also monitor the creditworthiness of travel agencies, tour operators and credit and debit card providers to which we extend credit in the normal course of our business. Our credit exposure also includes contingent obligations related to cash payments received directly by travel agents and tour operators for cash collected by them on cruise sales in certain European countries where we are obligated to honor our guests' cruise payments made by them to their travel agents and tour operators regardless of whether we have received these payments.

Concentrations of credit risk associated with trade receivables and other receivables, charter-hire agreements and contingent obligations are not considered to be material, principally due to the large number of unrelated accounts, the nature of these contingent obligations and their short maturities. Normally, we have not required collateral or other security to support normal credit sales and have not experienced significant credit losses.

**NOTE 6 – Segment Information**

The chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), who is the Chief Executive Officer of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc assesses performance and makes decisions to allocate resources for Carnival Corporation & plc based upon review of the results across all of our segments. The operating segments within each of our reportable segments have been aggregated based on the similarity of their economic and other characteristics, including geographic guest sourcing. Our four reportable segments are comprised of (1) North America cruise operations ("North America"), (2) Europe cruise operations ("Europe"), (3) Cruise Support and (4) Tour and Other.

Our Cruise Support segment includes our portfolio of leading port destinations and exclusive islands as well as other services, all of which are operated for the benefit of our cruise lines. Our Tour and Other segment represents the hotel and transportation operations of Holland America Princess Alaska Tours and other operations.

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i5776d4401c88446abbb9af4b5f45382f_7)</u>

Our CODM uses adjusted operating income (loss) in assessing segment performance and determining how to allocate resources. This metric is used to review segment operating trends and monitor variances against the plan and prior year results. Resource allocation primarily occurs during the annual capital appropriation process.

The below tables include our calculation of adjusted operating income (loss), our significant segment expenses, and a reconciliation of adjusted operating income (loss) to income (loss) before income taxes:

**Item 2. <u>Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations</u>.**

**Cautionary Note Concerning Factors That May Affect Future Results**

Some of the statements, estimates or projections contained in this document are "forward-looking statements" that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions with respect to us, including statements concerning future results, operations, strategy, outlooks, plans, goals, reputation, cash flows, liquidity and other events which have not yet occurred. These statements are intended to qualify for the safe harbors from liability provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical facts are statements that could be deemed forward-looking. These statements are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about our business and the industry in which we operate and the beliefs and assumptions of our management. We have tried, whenever possible, to identify these statements by using words like "will," "may," "could," "should," "would," "believe," "depends," "expect," "goal," "aspiration," "anticipate," "forecast," "project," "future," "intend," "plan," "estimate," "target," "indicate," "outlook," and similar expressions of future intent or the negative of such terms.

Because forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, there are many factors that could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements. This note contains important cautionary statements of the known factors that we consider could materially affect the accuracy of our forward-looking statements and adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial position. These factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Events and conditions around the world, including geopolitical uncertainty, war and other military actions, pandemics, inflation, higher interest rates and other general concerns impacting the ability or desire of people to travel could lead to a decline in demand for cruises as well as have significant negative impacts on our financial condition and operations.

• Incidents concerning our ships, guests or the cruise industry may negatively impact the satisfaction of our guests and crew and lead to reputational damage.

• Adverse weather conditions or an increase in the frequency and/or severity of adverse weather conditions could have a material impact on our business and results of operations.

• Our targets, goals, aspirations, initiatives, public statements and disclosures, including those related to sustainability matters, may expose us to risks that may adversely impact our business.

• Cybersecurity incidents and data privacy breaches, as well as disruptions and other damages to our principal and other offices, information technology operations and system networks and failure to keep pace with developments in technology may adversely impact our business operations, the satisfaction of our guests and crew and may lead to fines, penalties and reputational damage.

• Our debt requires a significant amount of cash to service and our ability to generate sufficient cash depends on many factors, some of which may be beyond our control. Our financial condition and operations could be adversely impacted if we are unable to service our debt or satisfy our covenants.

• Increases in fuel costs, changes in the types of fuel consumed and availability of fuel supply may adversely impact our scheduled itineraries and costs.

• The loss of key team members, our inability to recruit or retain qualified shoreside and shipboard team members and increased labor costs could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.

• We rely on suppliers who are integral to the operations of our businesses. These suppliers and service providers may be unable to deliver on their commitments, which could negatively impact our business.

• Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may adversely impact our financial results.

• Our investments in port destinations and exclusive islands may expose us to additional risks.

• Overcapacity and competition in the cruise and land-based vacation industry may negatively impact our cruise sales, pricing and destination options.

• Inability to implement our shipbuilding programs and ship repairs, maintenance and refurbishments may adversely impact our business operations and the satisfaction of our guests.

• Changes in and non-compliance with laws and regulations under which we operate, such as those relating to health, environment, safety and security, data privacy and protection, anti-money laundering, anti-corruption, economic sanctions, trade protection measures, labor and employment, and tax may be costly and lead to litigation, enforcement actions, fines, penalties and reputational damage.

• Factors associated with sustainability and the impact of greenhouse gases and other emissions on the environment could have a material impact on our business and operating results.

• We may not successfully complete the proposed unification of our dual listed company ("DLC") structure and the migration of Carnival Corporation's legal incorporation to Bermuda, or, if we do, we may not realize the anticipated benefits and will be subject to Bermuda law, which differs in some respects compared to our current jurisdictions.

The ordering of the risk factors set forth above is not intended to reflect our indication of priority or likelihood. There may be additional risks that we consider immaterial or which are unknown. Additional information about the factors that may affect future results is contained in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K as well as our other filings with the SEC, all of which are available on the SEC's website at <u>www.sec.gov</u>.

Forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as a prediction of actual results. Subject to any continuing obligations under applicable law or any relevant stock exchange rules, we expressly disclaim any obligation to disseminate, after the date of this document, any updates or revisions to any such forward-looking statements to reflect any change in expectations or events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statements are based.

Forward-looking and other statements in this document may also address our sustainability progress, plans, and goals (including emissions and environmental-related matters). In addition, historical, current, and forward-looking sustainability-related statements may be based on standards and tools for measuring progress that are still developing, internal controls and processes that continue to evolve, and assumptions and predictions that are subject to change in the future and may not be generally shared.

**New Accounting Pronouncements**

Refer to Note 1 - "General" of the consolidated financial statements for additional discussion regarding *Accounting Pronouncements*.

**Critical Accounting Estimates** 

For a discussion of our critical accounting estimates, see "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" that is included in the Form 10-K.

**Seasonality**

Our Passenger ticket revenues are seasonal. Demand for cruises has been greatest during our third quarter, which includes the Northern Hemisphere summer months. This higher demand during the third quarter results in higher ticket prices and occupancy levels and, accordingly, the largest share of our operating income is typically earned during this period. Our results are also impacted by ships being taken out-of-service for planned maintenance, which we schedule during non-peak seasons. In addition, substantially all of Holland America Princess Alaska Tours' revenue and operating income is generated from May through September in conjunction with Alaska's cruise season.

**Proposed DLC Unification and Redomiciliation**

On January 27, 2026, Carnival Corporation filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 with the SEC, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on February 20, 2026 (the "S-4"), in connection with the proposed unification of the dual listed company structure under a single corporate entity, Carnival Corporation, with Carnival plc as its wholly-owned UK subsidiary, and the shifting of Carnival Corporation's legal incorporation from Panama to Bermuda, as previously disclosed. The SEC declared the S-4 effective on February 27, 2026 and the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus relating to the S-4 was filed with the SEC on February 27, 2026.

**Known Trends and Uncertainties** 

We believe changes in the cost of fuel, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and new and evolving regulatory requirements related to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions are reasonably likely to impact our profitability in both the short and long-term. We became subject to the EU Emissions Trading System ("ETS") on January 1, 2024, which includes a three-year phase-in period. The impact of this regulation in 2025 was $91 million, which represented costs associated with 70% of emissions under the ETS operational scope. In 2026, all in scope emissions will be impacted.

Recent geopolitical uncertainty may impact our results of operations and may heighten other risks discussed in "Item 1A. Risk Factors," included in the Form 10-K.

***Notes to Statistical Information***

(a)PCD represents the number of cruise passengers on a voyage multiplied by the number of revenue-producing ship operating days for that voyage.

(b)ALBD is a standard measure of passenger capacity for the period that we use to approximate rate and capacity variances, based on consistently applied formulas that we use to perform analyses to determine the main non-capacity driven factors that cause our cruise revenues and expenses to vary. ALBDs assume that each cabin we offer for sale accommodates two passengers and is computed by multiplying passenger capacity by revenue-producing ship operating days in the period.

(c)For the three months ended February 28, 2026 compared to the three months ended February 28, 2025, we had a 0.5% capacity increase in ALBDs comprised of a 1.4% capacity increase in our North America segment and a 1.3% capacity decrease in our Europe segment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our North America segment's capacity increase was caused by a Princess Cruises 4,310-passenger capacity ship that entered into service in September 2025, partially offset by a P&O Cruises (Australia) 2,000-passenger capacity ship that left the fleet in February 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our Europe segment's capacity decrease was caused by more ship dry-dock days in 2026 compared to 2025.

(d)Occupancy, in accordance with cruise industry practice, is calculated using a numerator of PCDs and a denominator of ALBDs, which assumes two passengers per cabin even though some cabins can accommodate three or more passengers. Percentages in excess of 100% indicate that on average more than two passengers occupied some cabins.

**Three Months Ended February 28, 2026 ("2026") Compared to Three Months Ended February 28, 2025 ("2025")**

**Revenues**

**Consolidated**

Passenger ticket revenues made up 65% of our 2026 total revenues. Passenger ticket revenues increased by $191 million, or 5.0%, to $4.0 billion in 2026 from $3.8 billion in 2025.

This increase was caused by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $158 million - net favorable foreign currency translation impact

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $42 million - higher ticket prices driven by continued strength in demand

These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $27 million in air transportation revenue.

The remaining 35% of 2026 total revenues were comprised of Onboard and other revenues, which increased by $164 million, or 8.3%, to $2.1 billion in 2026 from $2.0 billion in 2025.

This increase was driven by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $104 million - higher onboard spending by our guests

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $49 million - net favorable foreign currency translation impact

**North America Segment**

Passenger ticket revenues made up 61% of our North America segment's 2026 total revenues. Passenger ticket revenues increased by $17 million, or 0.7%, and were $2.4 billion in 2026 and 2025.

This increase was caused by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $35 million - 1.4% capacity increase in ALBDs

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $22 million - higher ticket prices driven by continued strength in demand

These increases were partially offset by a 1.3 percentage point decrease in occupancy, representing $31 million.

The remaining 39% of our North America segment's 2026 total revenues were comprised of Onboard and other revenues, which increased by $95 million, or 6.4%, to $1.6 billion in 2026 from $1.5 billion in 2025.

This increase was caused by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $91 million - higher onboard spending by our guests

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**•** $21 million - 1.4% capacity increase in ALBDs

These increases were partially offset by a 1.3 percentage point decrease in occupancy representing $19 million.

**Europe Segment**

Passenger ticket revenues made up 77% of our Europe segment's 2026 total revenues. Passenger ticket revenues increased by $172 million, or 12%, to $1.6 billion in 2026 from $1.4 billion in 2025.

This increase was caused by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $158 million - net favorable foreign currency translation

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $36 million - 2.5 percentage point increase in occupancy

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $20 million - higher ticket prices driven by continued strength in demand

These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $21 million in air transportation revenue.

The remaining 23% of our Europe segment's 2026 total revenues were comprised of Onboard and other revenues, which increased by $68 million, or 16%, to $480 million in 2026 from $413 million in 2025. This increase was driven by a net favorable foreign currency translation impact of $49 million.

**Operating Expenses**

**Consolidated**

Operating expenses increased by $173 million, or 4.6%, to $3.9 billion in 2026 from $3.8 billion in 2025.

This increase was caused by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $126 million - net unfavorable foreign currency translation

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $75 million - higher repair and maintenance expenses (including dry-dock expenses)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $19 million - 0.5% capacity increase in ALBDs

These increases were partially offset by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $44 million - lower fuel prices including the impact of emission allowances

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $27 million - lower fuel consumption per ALBD

Selling and administrative expenses increased by $76 million, or 9.0%, to $924 million in 2026 from $848 million in 2025. This increase was driven by increased investment in advertising, higher compensation expense and higher information technology expense.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased by $42 million, or 6.4%, to $696 million in 2026 from $654 million in 2025.

**North America Segment**

Operating expenses increased by $16 million, or 0.7%, to $2.5 billion in 2026 from $2.4 billion in 2025.

**Europe Segment** 

Operating expenses increased by $151 million, or 12%, to $1.4 billion in 2026 from $1.3 billion in 2025.

This increase was caused by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $129 million - net unfavorable foreign currency translation

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• $41 million - higher repair and maintenance expenses (including dry-dock expenses)

Selling and administrative expenses increased by $33 million, or 13%, to $283 million in 2026 from $250 million in 2025. This increase was caused by higher compensation expense, increased investment in advertising and higher information technology expense.

**Operating Income**

Our consolidated operating income increased by $64 million to $607 million in 2026 from $543 million in 2025. Our North America segment's operating income increased by $54 million to $569 million in 2026 from $516 million in 2025, and our Europe segment's operating income increased by $30 million to $170 million in 2026 from $140 million in 2025. These changes were primarily due to the reasons discussed above.

**Nonoperating Income (Expense)**

Interest expense, net of capitalized interest decreased by $85 million, or 23%, to $291 million in 2026 from $377 million in 2025. The decrease was caused by lower average interest rates and a decrease in total debt.

Other income (expense), net changed by $59 million, to $(47) million in 2026 from $12 million in 2025. The decrease was substantially all due to foreign currency remeasurement.

**Liquidity, Financial Condition and Capital Resources** 

As of February 28, 2026, we had $5.9 billion of liquidity including $1.4 billion of cash and cash equivalents and $4.5 billion available for borrowing under our multicurrency revolving credit facility. In addition, we had $10.9 billion of undrawn export credit facilities to fund future ship deliveries.

We had a working capital deficit of $8.7 billion as of February 28, 2026 compared to $8.9 billion as of November 30, 2025. We operate with a substantial working capital deficit, largely due to our business model in which guest cruise deposits and the advance purchases of onboard and other services are collected ahead of the sailing date and recorded as a liability until recognized as revenue. These customer deposits are used alongside other cash sources to fund operations, service debt, and support capital investments.

We have agreements with a number of credit card processors that transact customer deposits related to our cruise vacations. Certain of these agreements allow the credit card processors to request, under certain circumstances, that we provide a capped reserve fund in cash. In addition, we have a relatively low level of accounts receivable and limited investment in inventories.

We are not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements, including guarantee contracts, retained or contingent interests, certain derivative instruments and variable interest entities that either have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

**Sources and Uses of Cash**

***Operating Activities***

Our business provided $1.3 billion of net cash flows from operating activities during the three months ended February 28, 2026, an increase of $0.3 billion, compared to $0.9 billion provided for the same period in 2025. This was caused by an improvement in our earnings with $263 million of net income in 2026 compared to $75 million of net loss in 2025 and other working capital changes, partially offset by the nonrecurrence of losses on debt extinguishment.

***Investing Activities***

During the three months ended February 28, 2026, net cash used in investing activities of $597 million was driven by capital expenditures of $566 million substantially all attributable to ship improvements and development of our portfolio of exclusive destinations.

During the three months ended February 28, 2025, net cash used in investing activities was $605 million. This was caused by capital expenditures of $607 million primarily attributable to ship improvements and developments in our port destinations and exclusive islands.

***Financing Activities***

During the three months ended February 28, 2026, net cash used in financing activities of $1.2 billion was driven by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Repayments of $945 million of long-term debt

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Payments of cash dividends of $208 million

------

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i5776d4401c88446abbb9af4b5f45382f_7)</u>

During the three months ended February 28, 2025, net cash used in financing activities of $690 million was driven by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Repayments of $3.4 billion of long-term debt

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Debt issuance costs of $24 million

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Debt extinguishment costs of $197 million

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Issuances of $3.0 billion of long-term debt

**Funding Sources** 

We plan to use existing liquidity and future cash flows from operations to fund our cash requirements including capital expenditures not funded by our export credit facilities. We seek to manage our credit risk exposures, including counterparty nonperformance associated with our cash and cash equivalents, and future financing facilities by conducting business with well-established financial institutions, and export credit agencies and diversifying our counterparties.

**Item 4. <u>Controls and Procedures</u>.**

**A. <u>Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures</u>**

Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer and Chief Accounting Officer have evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures and have concluded, as of February 28, 2026, that they are effective as described above.

**B. <u>Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting</u>**

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended February 28, 2026 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

<u>[**Table of Contents**](#i5776d4401c88446abbb9af4b5f45382f_7)</u>

**PART II - OTHER INFORMATION**

**Item 1. <u>Legal Proceedings</u>.**

To the extent disclosure is required by Part II. Item 1 of Form 10-Q, the legal proceedings described in Note 4 – "Contingencies and Commitments" of our consolidated financial statements, including those described under "Regulatory or Governmental Inquiries and Investigations," are incorporated in this "Legal Proceedings" section by reference. Additionally, SEC rules require disclosure of certain environmental matters when a governmental authority is a party to the proceedings and such proceedings involve potential monetary sanctions that we believe will exceed $1 million for such proceedings.

**Item 1A. <u>Risk Factors</u>.**

The risk factors that affect our business and financial results are discussed in "Item 1A. Risk Factors," included in the Form 10-K, and there has been no material change to these risk factors since the Form 10-K filing. These risks should be carefully considered, and could materially and adversely affect our results, operations, outlooks, plans, goals, growth, reputation, cash flows, liquidity, and stock price. Our business also could be affected by risks that we are not presently aware of or that we currently consider immaterial to our operations.

**Item 5. <u>Other Information</u>.**

**<u>Trading Plans</u>**

During the quarter ended February 28, 2026, no director or Section 16 officer adopted or terminated any Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangements or non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangements (in each case, as defined in Item 408(a) of Regulation S-K).
