Carnival Corporation & plc Reports Record Third Quarter Earnings

Board Re-establishes $1 Billion Share Buy Back Program

MIAMI, Sept. 20, 2007 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Carnival Corporation & plc (NYSE/LSE: CCL; NYSE: CUK) reported record net income for its third quarter ended August 31, 2007 of $1.38 billion, or $1.67 diluted EPS, compared to net income for the third quarter of 2006 of $1.23 billion, or $1.49 diluted EPS. Revenues for the third quarter 2007 increased to $4.32 billion from $3.91 billion in the third quarter of 2006.

Net income for the nine months ended August 31, 2007 was also a record at $2.05 billion, or $2.51 diluted EPS, on revenues of $9.91 billion, compared to net income of $1.86 billion, or $2.25 diluted EPS, on revenues of $9.03 billion for the same period in 2006.

Carnival Corporation & plc Chairman and CEO Micky Arison said that third quarter results came in better than expected primarily due to stronger pricing on bookings taken closer to departure.

"Our earnings were up 12 percent driven largely by the successful introduction of new ships for both our North American and European brands in time for our peak summer season. Our North American brands enjoyed another strong European season, a solid Alaska season, and a modest year over year improvement in revenue yields in the Caribbean. The recovery in the Caribbean has continued as the demand for Caribbean cruises remains strong," Arison said. The company's European brands benefited from strong improvements in operating results with increased revenue yields on a dollar basis due to stronger Euro and Sterling currencies. Local currency revenue yields were down against very strong comparisons with the previous year.

Key metrics for the third quarter of 2007 were as follows:

  • Net revenue yields (net revenue per available lower berth day) for Q3 2007 increased 2.5 percent (flat on a constant dollar basis) compared to the prior year. Gross revenue yields increased 2.0 percent compared to the prior year.
  • Net cruise costs per available lower berth day ("ALBD") for Q3 2007 increased 3.3 percent (up 0.8 percent on a constant dollar basis) compared to the prior year. Gross cruise costs per ALBD increased 2.3 percent compared to the prior year.
  • Excluding fuel, net cruise cost per ALBD on a constant dollar basis decreased 0.2 percent compared to the prior year.
  • Fuel price increased 7.4 percent to $376 per metric ton compared to $350 per metric ton in the third quarter of 2006, and was in line with our previous guidance of $375 per metric ton.

Repurchase Program
The company has repurchased 4.5 million shares of Carnival stock for approximately $195 million since the beginning of the third quarter. The total amount repurchased to date under the June 2006 $1 billion authorization is $422 million. Yesterday, the board of directors increased the remaining $578 million repurchase authorization to $1 billion. Repurchases will take place in the open market or privately negotiated transactions in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. This authorization covers both Carnival Corporation stock traded on the New York Stock Exchange and Carnival plc ordinary shares traded on the London Stock Exchange.

Outlook

On a cumulative basis, occupancy for advance bookings taken for the fourth quarter of 2007 and the first half of 2008 are ahead of last year with pricing on a current dollar basis up slightly compared to last year.

"For the balance of 2007 and into the first half of next year, bookings are well ahead of last year," Arison said. He cited the company's pricing strategy of early discounts on Caribbean cruises stimulating strong booking volumes early in the year - a strategy now driving revenue yield improvement into the fourth quarter. "We've already seen Caribbean pricing improvement in the back half of this year, and we are optimistic that it will continue into the first half of 2008," he added.

Net revenue yields for our North American brands should see continued improvement in the fourth quarter based on the positive trends in the Caribbean business. The European brands are also expected to perform well continuing to benefit from the strong Euro and Sterling. For the fourth quarter of 2007, the company expects earnings to be in the range of $0.42 to $0.44 per share, down from $0.51 per share in 2006 primarily as a result of significantly higher fuel prices and timing of dry-dock expenses.

For the 2007 full year, compared to its prior June 2007 guidance, the company anticipates a slight improvement in its net revenue yield expectations. Excluding fuel, cost guidance for the full year remains unchanged on a constant dollar basis. Despite increases in fuel prices the company expects full year 2007 earnings per share to be in the range of $2.92 to $2.94, toward the higher end of the company's previous guidance range of $2.85 to $2.95.

On September 14, Carnival commenced the operations of its 75 percent owned joint venture with Orizonia Corporation for a multi-ship Spanish cruise line, Iberocruceros. The new brand is operating the 1,244-passenger Grand Mistral and the 834-passenger Grand Voyager. In June 2008, Carnival Cruise Lines' 1,486-passenger Celebration will join the Iberocruceros fleet. The results of Iberocruceros will be consolidated into the company's financial statements beginning with the 2007 fourth quarter and have been incorporated into the company's fourth quarter and full year guidance.

At the end of the fourth quarter Cunard Line's 90,000-ton Queen Victoria, is expected to join her sisters, Queen Elizabeth 2 and Queen Mary 2 which will mark the first time ever that Cunard has had three Queens in service.

                     NOTES TO NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(1) We use net cruise revenues per ALBD ("net revenue yields") and net cruise costs per ALBD as significant non-GAAP financial measures of our cruise segment financial performance. We believe that net revenue yields are commonly used in the cruise industry to measure a company's cruise segment revenue performance. This measure is also used for revenue management purposes. In calculating net revenue yields, we use "net cruise revenues" rather than "gross cruise revenues." We believe that net cruise revenues is a more meaningful measure in determining revenue yield than gross cruise revenues because it reflects the cruise revenues earned by us net of our most significant variable costs, which are travel agent commissions, cost of air transportation and certain other variable direct costs associated with onboard and other revenues. Substantially all of our remaining cruise costs are largely fixed once our ship capacity levels have been determined, except for the impact of changing prices.

Net cruise costs per ALBD is the most significant measure we use to monitor our ability to control our cruise segment costs rather than gross cruise costs per ALBD. In calculating net cruise costs, we exclude the same variable costs that are included in the calculation of net cruise revenues. This is done to avoid duplicating these variable costs in these two non-GAAP financial measures.

We have not provided estimates of future gross revenue yields or future gross cruise costs per ALBD because the reconciliations of forecasted net cruise revenues to forecasted gross cruise revenues or forecasted net cruise costs to forecasted cruise operating expenses would require us to forecast, with reasonable accuracy, the amount of air and other transportation costs that our forecasted cruise passengers would elect to purchase from us (the "air/sea mix"). Since the forecasting of future air/sea mix involves several significant variables that are relatively difficult to forecast and the revenues from the sale of air and other transportation approximate the costs of providing that transportation, management focuses primarily on forecasts of net cruise revenues and costs rather than gross cruise revenues and costs. This does not impact, in any material respect, our ability to forecast our future results, as any variation in the air/sea mix has no material impact on our forecasted net cruise revenues or forecasted net cruise costs. As such, management does not believe that this reconciling information would be meaningful.

In addition, because a significant portion of Carnival Corporation & plc's operations utilize the Euro or Sterling to measure their results and financial condition, the translation of those operations to our U.S. dollar reporting currency results in increases in reported U.S. dollar revenues and expenses if the U.S. dollar weakens against these foreign currencies, and decreases in reported U.S. dollar revenues and expenses if the U.S. dollar strengthens against these foreign currencies. Accordingly, we also monitor these two non- GAAP financial measures assuming the current period currency exchange rates have remained constant with the prior year's comparable period rates, or on a "constant dollar basis," in order to remove the impact of changes in exchange rates on our non-U.S. dollar cruise operations. We believe that this is a useful measure indicating the actual growth of our operations in a fluctuating currency exchange rate environment. On a constant dollar basis, net cruise revenues and net cruise costs would be $3.21 billion and $1.57 billion for the three months ended August 31, 2007 and $7.50 billion and $4.53 billion for the nine months ended August 31, 2007, respectively. On a constant dollar basis, gross cruise revenues and gross cruise costs would be $3.92 billion and $2.28 billion for the three months ended August 31, 2007 and $9.30 billion and $6.33 billion for the nine months ended August 31, 2007, respectively. In addition, our non-U.S. dollar cruise operations' depreciation and net interest expense were impacted by the changes in exchange rates for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2007, compared to the prior year's comparable periods.

(2) Available lower berth days is a standard measure of passenger capacity for the period. It assumes that each cabin we offer for sale accommodates two passengers. ALBDs are computed by multiplying passenger capacity by revenue-producing ship operating days in the period.
