Half-yearly Report

Carnival Corporation & plc Reports Second Quarter Earnings MIAMI, June 19 -- Carnival Corporation & plc today reports earnings for the second quarter ended May 31, 2007. The earnings of Carnival Corporation and Carnival plc have been consolidated, and this statement includes consolidated results on a U.S. GAAP basis. Q2 Highlights * Q2 revenues increased by $238m or 8.9% to $2.90bn versus the prior year, driven primarily by a 9.2% increase in cruise capacity * Q2 net revenue yields increased 0.2% compared to the prior year (decreased 2.6% on a constant dollar basis) * Q2 net income (profit after tax) increased by $10m or 2.6% to $390m (Q2 2006: net income of $380m on revenues of $2.66bn) * Q2 earnings per share (diluted) increased by $0.02 to $0.48 (Q2 2006: earnings per share (diluted) of $0.46) 2007 Outlook * Net revenue yields for full year 2007 are expected to be up 1% (down 1 to 2% on a constant dollar basis), compared to last year * Net cruise costs per ALBD for full year 2007 are expected to be up 2 to 3% (flat to up 1% on a constant dollar basis), compared to 2006 * Full year guidance for net revenue yields and costs excluding fuel, remains unchanged on a constant dollar basis. * Fuel prices have increased significantly since our previous guidance, which has reduced earnings estimates for the year by $0.12 per share * Full year 2007 earnings per share (diluted) expected to be in the range of $2.85 to $2.95 * Q3 earnings per share (diluted) expected to be in the range of $1.60 to $1.62 versus $1.49 in Q3 2006 Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Micky Arison commenting on these results: "Revenues for our North American and European cruise brands were both in line with our expectations. The Caribbean, which still had a relatively high percentage of our capacity during the second quarter, continued to experience price pressure. However, increases in revenue yields from our European brands together with the strengthening Euro and Sterling produced significant revenue yield growth outside of North America. The decision to expand our European cruise business is working, with the strength of our European brands offsetting some cyclical weakness in the contemporary segment of North America," Arison said. Arison also pointed out that as the company moves into the second half of the year it has more deployments in Europe and less capacity devoted to the Caribbean. "Our North American brands are enjoying strong European and Alaskan programs and our European brands are performing well against strong comparisons last year," Arison said. He also noted that pricing for Caribbean sailings in the second half of 2007 appears to have stabilized.

Carnival Corporation & plc Reports Second Quarter Earnings MIAMI, June 19 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Carnival Corporation & plc (NYSE/LSE: CCL; NYSE: CUK) reported net income for its second quarter ended May 31, 2007 of $390 million, or $0.48 diluted EPS, compared to net income for the second quarter of 2006 of $380 million, or $0.46 diluted EPS. Revenues for the second quarter 2007 increased to $2.90 billion from $2.66 billion in the second quarter of 2006. Net income for the six months ended May 31, 2007, was $673 million, or $0.83 diluted EPS, on revenues of $5.59 billion, compared to net income of $631 million, or $0.77 diluted EPS, on revenues of $5.13 billion for the same period in 2006. Carnival Corporation & plc Chairman and CEO Micky Arison said that second quarter results came in largely in line with expectations. "Revenues for our North American and European cruise brands were both in line with our expectations. The Caribbean, which still had a relatively high percentage of our capacity during the second quarter, continued to experience price pressure. However, increases in revenue yields from our European brands together with the strengthening Euro and Sterling produced significant revenue yield growth outside of North America," Arison said. "The decision to expand our European cruise business is working, with the strength of our European brands offsetting some cyclical weakness in the contemporary segment of North America," Arison noted. Arison also pointed out that fuel costs came in higher than forecasted, which impacted earnings by approximately $0.02 per share. Key metrics for the second quarter of 2007 were as follows: * Net revenue yields (net revenue per available lower berth day) for Q2 2007 increased 0.2 percent (down 2.6 percent on a constant dollar basis) compared to the prior year. Gross revenue yields were approximately equal to the prior year. * Net cruise costs per available lower berth day ("ALBD") for Q2 2007 increased 1.3 percent (down 1.5 percent on a constant dollar basis) compared to the prior year. Gross cruise costs per ALBD increased 0.7 percent compared to the prior year. * Excluding fuel, net cruise cost per ALBD on a constant dollar basis was equal to the prior year. * Fuel price increased 7 percent to $333 per metric ton compared to our previous guidance of $310 per metric ton. Fuel price per metric ton in the second quarter of 2006 was $354. Recently, the company also took steps towards the ongoing modernization of its fleet by selling P&O Australia's Pacific Star and announcing the sale of Cunard's Queen Elizabeth 2, which are expected to leave the fleet in March and November of 2008, respectively. In addition, the company took delivery of three highly acclaimed new ships in the second quarter -- Princess Cruises' 3,100-passenger Emerald Princess, AIDA Cruises' 2,050-passenger AIDAdiva, and Costa Cruises' 3,000-passenger Costa Serena, all of which are enjoying very successful inaugural seasons in Europe this summer. The company also noted that it continues to work towards the completion of the previously announced joint ventures with Iberojet in Spain and TUI in Germany. The company continues to expect both joint ventures to be completed in the second half of the year. Both transactions may be subject to regulatory review. Outlook for the Remainder of 2007 On a cumulative basis, occupancy for advance bookings taken for the second half of 2007 are nicely ahead of last year with pricing on a current dollar basis down slightly compared to last year. As the company moves into the second half of the year it has more deployments in Europe and less capacity devoted to the Caribbean. "Our North American brands are enjoying strong European and Alaskan programs and our European brands are performing well against strong comparisons last year," Arison said. He also noted that pricing for Caribbean sailings in the second half of 2007 appears to have stabilized, which he attributed to consumer recognition of the tremendous value proposition of these cruise vacations. Since the beginning of the year, booking volumes for Carnival Cruise Lines, which has the vast majority of its sailings in the Caribbean, are up approximately 18 percent year over year. This compares to a 5.5 percent capacity increase for the full year. The company's 2007 full year revenue yield expectations on a constant dollar basis remain on track with the guidance given last March. Excluding fuel, cost guidance for the year also remains unchanged on a constant dollar basis. However, fuel prices have increased significantly since our previous guidance, which has reduced earnings estimates by approximately $0.12 per share for the full year. Based on the above, the company expects full year 2007 earnings per share to be in a range of $2.85 to $2.95, compared to $2.77 per share in 2006. For the third quarter of 2007, the company expects earnings per share to be in the range of $1.60 to $1.62 per share, compared to $1.49 per share in 2006.

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 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 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. We also monitor these two non-GAAP financial measures assuming the 2007 currency exchange rates have remained constant with the 2006 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 $2.25 billion and $1.53 billion for the three months ended May 31, 2007 and $4.29 billion and $2.96 billion for the six months ended May 31, 2007, respectively. On a constant dollar basis, gross cruise revenues and gross cruise costs would be $2.78 billion and $2.06 billion for the three months ended May 31, 2007 and $5.38 billion and $4.05 billion for the six months ended May 31, 2007, respectively. In addition, our non-U.S. dollar cruise operations' depreciation and net interest expense were impacted by changes in exchange rates for the three and six months ended May 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.
