| Liquidity, Basis of Presentation |
Liquidity As of June 30, 2025, we had liquidity of approximately $2.4 billion, including cash and cash equivalents of $184.0 million, $2.0 billion available under our Revolving Loan Facility and a €200 million commitment that could be used for future newbuild payments which was available through July 2025. We believe that we have sufficient liquidity to fund our obligations and expect to remain in compliance with our financial covenants for at least the next twelve months from the issuance of these financial statements. We will continue to pursue various opportunities to optimize our liquidity, refinance future debt maturities to reduce interest expense and/or extend the maturity dates associated with our existing indebtedness and obtain relevant financial covenant amendments or waivers, if needed. Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in our opinion, contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented. Our operations are seasonal and results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire fiscal year. Historically, demand for cruises has been strongest during the Northern Hemisphere’s summer months. The interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, which are included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 27, 2025. |

| Earnings (Loss) Per Share |
Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the basic weighted-average number of shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income and assumed conversion of exchangeable notes by diluted weighted-average shares outstanding. A reconciliation between basic and diluted earnings per share was as follows (in thousands, except share and per share data):
Each exchangeable note (see Note 7 – “Long-Term Debt”) is individually evaluated for its dilutive or anti-dilutive impact on EPS as determined under the if-converted method. Only the interest expense and weighted average shares for exchangeable notes that are dilutive are included in the effect of dilutive securities. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the 2025 Exchangeable Notes, 2027 1.125% Exchangeable Notes and 2027 2.5% Exchangeable Notes were anti-dilutive. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the 2024 Exchangeable Notes, 2025 Exchangeable Notes and 2027 2.5% Exchangeable Notes were anti-dilutive. For the 2030 Exchangeable Notes, we are required to settle the principal amount in cash and have the option to settle the conversion spread in cash or shares. If the conversion value of the 2030 Exchangeable Notes does not exceed their conversion price for a reporting period, then the shares underlying the notes will not be reflected in the Company’s calculation of diluted EPS. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the price of NCLH's ordinary shares did not exceed the conversion price, and therefore, there was no impact to diluted EPS. Share awards are evaluated for a dilutive or anti-dilutive impact on EPS using the treasury stock method. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, a total of 59.3 million and 7.1 million shares, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, a total of 70.1 million and 53.3 million shares, respectively, have been excluded from diluted weighted-average shares outstanding because the effect of including them would have been anti-dilutive. |

| Foreign Currency |
Foreign Currency The majority of our transactions are settled in U.S. dollars. We remeasure assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. The resulting gains or losses are recognized in our consolidated statements of operations within other income (expense), net. We recognized a loss of $158.5 million and a gain of $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and a loss of $181.0 million and a gain of $15.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, related to remeasurement of assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. Remeasurements of foreign currency related to operating activities are recognized within changes in operating assets and liabilities in the consolidated statement of cash flows. |

| Depreciation and Amortization Expense |
Depreciation and Amortization Expense The amortization of deferred financing fees is included in depreciation and amortization expense in the consolidated statements of cash flows; however, for purposes of the consolidated statements of operations they are included in interest expense, net. |

| Segment Reporting |
Segment Reporting In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which aims to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. ASU 2023-07 has been applied retrospectively.
The below table includes our calculation of adjusted operating income, our significant segment expenses therein, and a reconciliation of adjusted operating income to net income (loss) before income taxes (in thousands):

| Recently Issued Accounting Guidance |
Recently Issued Accounting Guidance In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which requires improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information as well as certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 and will be applied on a prospective basis. We are evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on our notes to the consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires disaggregation of certain costs and expenses, including employee compensation, and requires other improvements to disclosures. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The update may be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis. We are evaluating the impact of ASU 2024-03 on our notes to the consolidated financial statements. |
