| Jun 26, 2026 | mda_quarterly | Carnival Corporation Ltd. reported total revenues of $12.8 billion for the six months ended May 31, 2026, driven by higher ticket prices, increased onboard spending, and a 1.2% increase in available lower berth days. Despite this growth, quarterly operating income declined to $851 million, pressured by rising fuel prices, the non-recurrence of ship sale gains, and increased crew travel costs stemming from the Middle East conflict. The Europe segment saw significant revenue gains aided by favorable foreign currency translation. Regulatory headwinds are increasing as the EU Emissions Trading System now impacts all in-scope emissions. In May 2026, the company completed its dual-listed company unification and redomiciliation to Bermuda. Liquidity stands at $6.7 billion, comprising $2.2 billion in cash and $4.5 billion in revolving credit, supplemented by $10.8 billion in undrawn export credit facilities for future ship deliveries. The company has successfully reduced total debt, contributing to a 20% year-over-year decrease in six-month interest expenses. Primary financial risks include fuel price volatility, geopolitical instability, and foreign currency fluctuations. To optimize the balance sheet, the company extended the depreciable lives of its ships to 35 years. |
| Mar 27, 2026 | mda_quarterly | Consolidated revenue increased, led by passenger ticket revenues of $4.0 billion and onboard revenues of $2.1 billion, driven by strong demand, higher ticket prices, and favorable foreign currency translation. Operating income rose to $607 million. North American capacity grew following the addition of a Princess Cruises ship, while European capacity declined due to increased dry-dock days. Operating expenses reached $3.9 billion, pressured by unfavorable currency translation and higher repair and maintenance costs, though partially offset by lower fuel prices and consumption. A significant regulatory trend is the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS), which incurred $91 million in costs in 2025 and will cover all in-scope emissions in 2026. Strategically, the company is executing a unification of its dual-listed company structure and redomiciliation to Bermuda. Liquidity stands at $5.9 billion, supplemented by $10.9 billion in undrawn export credit facilities. Net interest expense decreased 23% to $291 million due to debt reduction and lower average rates. The company continues to manage a substantial working capital deficit of $8.7 billion, typical of its deposit-based business model, while facing ongoing risks from geopolitical uncertainty, fuel price volatility, and seasonal demand peaks in the third quarter. |
