Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Reports First Quarter 2020 Financial Results

Significantly Strengthened Liquidity with Highly Successful $2.4 Billion Capital Raise

Well-Positioned to Withstand Over 18 Months of Voyage Suspensions

Non-Cash Goodwill and Tradenames Impairment of $1.6 Billion Resulted in a First Quarter 2020 Net Loss of $(1.9) Billion

MIAMI, May 14, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. (NYSE: NCLH) (together with NCL Corporation Ltd., “Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings”, “Norwegian” or the “Company”) today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2020, and provided a business update in response to the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) global pandemic.

“In recent weeks, we have taken decisive action to significantly strengthen our financial position in response to the COVID-19 global pandemic, including our highly successful and oversubscribed $2.4 billion gross simultaneous quad-tranche capital raise announced last week. We believe this capital raise, coupled with other ongoing liquidity-enhancing initiatives, makes us well-positioned to weather an unlikely scenario of over 18 months of suspended voyages,” said Frank Del Rio, president and chief executive officer of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. “Our guests continue to demonstrate their desire for cruise vacations, and we continue to experience demand for voyages further in the future across our three brands. As we prepare to resume sailings, we are working around the clock alongside U.S. and global public health agencies and governments to develop and implement the next level of enhanced cruise health and safety standards.”

Booking Environment and Outlook

2020 started off strong and was expected to be another record year. All three of the Company’s brands entered the year in a record booked position and at higher prices on a comparable basis. For the first two months of the year, ships sailed full at prices that were higher than prior year despite meaningful capacity growth of approximately 7%. As with the broader travel and leisure industry, the Company has experienced rapid and significant impacts related to the COVID-19 global pandemic including significant softness in near-term demand and an elevated rate of cancellations for existing bookings. There continues to be demand for cruise vacations particularly beginning in the fourth quarter 2020 accelerating through 2021 with the Company’s overall booked position and pricing for 2021 within historical ranges.

All three brands have instituted programs for guests on cancelled sailings as a result of the Company’s voyage suspension which include offering value-add future cruise credits typically for 125% of the cruise fare paid in lieu of providing cash refunds. These future cruise credits are valid for any sailing through December 31, 2022. As of May 11, 2020, slightly over half of the guests who have had their voyages cancelled have requested cash refunds. As of March 31, 2020, the Company had $1.8 billion of advanced ticket sales, including the long-term portion. This includes approximately $800 million for previously announced voyage cancellations through June 30, 2020 where guests have the option of either a future cruise credit or a cash refund, and approximately $370 million for voyages scheduled for the remainder of 2020. The Company also continues to take future bookings for 2020, 2021 and 2022, and receive new customer deposits and final payments on these bookings.

Enhanced Health & Safety Protocols

Prior to the suspension of cruise voyages, the Company had begun developing a comprehensive and multi-faceted strategy to enhance its already rigorous health and safety protocols to address the unique public health challenges posed by COVID-19, including enhanced screenings, upgraded cleaning and disinfection protocols and plans for social distancing. Several of these protocols were put in place prior to the voyage suspension.

The Company is consulting with Dr. Scott Gottlieb, former Commissioner of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and an experienced public health and medical policy expert, as an advisor to provide independent public health counsel as the Company develops the next level of health and safety standards to prepare for the resumption of voyages.

The Company will continue to work with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (“CDC”) and other federal agencies, public health authorities and national and local governments in areas where it operates to take all necessary measures to ensure the health, safety and security of guests, crew and the communities visited once operations resume.

COVID-19 Action Plan

The Company has taken swift, proactive measures to mitigate the financial and operational impacts of COVID-19. This action plan includes cost reduction and cash conservation levers the Company has deployed to preserve and enhance liquidity while also securing additional capital.

Reduced Operating Expenses

The Company anticipates estimated ongoing ship operating expenses and administrative operating costs combined to range from approximately $70 million to $110 million¹ per month during the suspension of operations as a result of the following cost reduction measures:

• Meaningfully reducing cruise operating expense which includes reducing expenses associated with crew payroll, food, fuel, insurance and port charges. The majority of ships in the Company’s fleet are currently transitioning to cold layup.
• Significantly reduced or deferred marketing expense in the first half of the year.
• Introduced a temporary shortened work week and reduced work hours with commensurate 20% salary reduction for shoreside team members.
• Temporarily furloughed approximately 20% of the shoreside workforce through July 31, 2020. Furloughed team members remain employees of the Company and retain healthcare and other benefits. The Company is covering the employee share of medical insurance premiums during the furlough period.
• Implemented a company-wide hiring freeze.
• Paused employer 401(k) match contribution.
• Suspended travel for shoreside employees across the organization.

Reduced Capital Expenditures

The Company has identified approximately $515 million of capital expenditure reductions, comprised of:

• Approximately $345 million, or an approximately 65% reduction of non-newbuild capital expenditures for the remainder of 2020.
• Approximately $170 million in expected deferred capital expenditures for newbuild related payments through March 31, 2021. The Company is currently finalizing documentation for deferrals of these payments. Upon completion, the Company does not expect any newbuild related payments to have an impact on liquidity until April 2021.
• Total capital expenditures, net of expected deferrals of newbuild related payments, for the remainder of 2020 is expected to be approximately $195 million.

Improved Debt Maturity Profile

• Deferred approximately $385 million of payments related to guaranteed financing by Euler Hermes Aktiengesellschaft (“Hermes”), the official Export Credit Agency (“ECA”) of Germany, through April 2021 and amended associated credit agreements to incorporate this debt deferral in connection with an industrywide initiative granting a 12-month debt holiday to provide interim debt service relief for amortization payments and financial covenants (“Debt Holiday”). The Company is finalizing documentation for the deferral of the remaining approximately $155 million of ECA backed payments through March 31, 2021 with its other ECA lenders. Deferrals are to be repaid in eight equal semi-annual installments following the Debt Holiday.
• Secured a 12-month deferral for approximately $150 million of debt amortization through March 31, 2021 relating to the Term Loan A and Norwegian Jewel term loan. Deferrals are to be repaid 25% per year in equal installments following the deferral period with any outstanding balance paid in full at maturity.
• Extended $230 million Pride of America term loan by one year to January 2022.
• Extended $675 million Norwegian Epic revolving credit facility to March 2022.

Taken together, the aforementioned cash conservation measures and the deferral of near-term debt amortization and newbuild related payments², the Company estimates its monthly cash burn to be on average in the range of, approximately $120 million to $160 million per month during the suspension of operations. This includes ongoing ship operating expenses, administrative operating expenses, interest expense (including approximately $12 million of additional cash interest expense per month for the next twelve months for debt refinancings and new financing transactions announced last week) and expected capital expenditures and excludes cash refunds of customer deposits as well as cash inflows from new and existing bookings. The increase versus prior monthly cash burn estimates of approximately $110 million to $150 million per month reflects additional interest expense.

________________
¹ Based on hypothetical scenario of entire fleet in cold layup or entire fleet in warm layup. Includes ship operating expenses and administrative operating expenses. Does not include interest, maintenance capital expenditures, customer refunds or cash inflows from new and existing bookings.

² Assumes approximately $700 million of debt amortization payments through March 31, 2021 are granted a 12-month deferral. Approximately $385 million of these debt amortization payments related to Hermes-backed financing have already been finalized and approximately $150 million of payments related to the Term Loan A and Norwegian Jewel term loan have been finalized. Also assumes approximately $170 million of newbuild related payments due over the next 12 months are granted a 12-month deferral, which the Company is currently finalizing documentation for.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity Position

In response to COVID-19, the Company secured a new $675 million revolving credit facility on March 5, 2020 and fully drew down on this new facility as well as its existing $875 million revolving credit facility beginning on March 12, 2020 for a total of $1.55 billion. As of March 31, 2020, the Company’s total debt position was $8.6 billion. In connection with the actions outlined in the Improved Debt Maturity Profile section above, the Company has reclassified $1.4 billion of debt which was originally classified as a current liability based on the contractual maturities outstanding at March 31, 2020 to long-term debt. As of March 31, 2020, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were $1.4 billion and the Company believes it was in compliance with all debt covenants.

On May 5, 2020 the Company launched a series of capital markets transactions, led by Goldman Sachs, to raise approximately $2 billion. As a result of significant demand, oversubscription and the full exercise of options to purchase additional ordinary shares and exchangeable notes, the total amount of gross proceeds increased to approximately $2.4 billion. The transactions consisted of (i) $460 million public offering of common equity, (ii) $862.5 million 6% exchangeable senior notes offering, both of which closed on May 8, 2020, (iii) $675 million 12.25% senior secured notes offering which is expected to close on May 14, 2020 and (iv) $400 million private investment from global consumer-focused private equity firm L Catterton which is expected to close no later than May 29, 2020, subject to customary closing conditions.

Following the recent capital markets transactions, total pro-forma liquidity is approximately $3.7 billion as of March 31, 2020. Total shares issued and outstanding as of May 8, 2020 are 256.3 million.

“Our swift actions to preserve cash and secure additional liquidity in this uncertain environment provide a strong foundation to withstand the operational and financial impact of COVID-19,” said Mark A. Kempa, executive vice president and chief financial officer of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd. “Our focus on strengthening the balance sheet and strong financial track record were instrumental in our successful capital raise. We are confident the Company can navigate through an unlikely extended zero revenue scenario and emerge in a strong position.” 

First Quarter 2020 Results

GAAP net income (loss) was $(1.9) billion or EPS of $(8.80) compared to $118.2 million or $0.54 in the prior year. These results include a non-cash impairment loss of $1.6 billion primarily related to goodwill and tradenames. The Company reported Adjusted Net Income (Loss) of $(211.3) million or Adjusted EPS of $(0.99) compared to $181.8 million or $0.83 in the prior year. These results include adjustments of $1.7 billion primarily consisting of expenses related to impairment losses, non-cash stock-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets.

Revenue decreased 11.2% to $1.2 billion compared to $1.4 billion in 2019. Gross Yield increased 1.6% primarily due to increased onboard spending. Net Yield decreased 12.3% on both an as reported basis and Constant Currency basis on a decrease in Capacity Days of 12.6%. The decrease in Net Yield was primarily due to an increase in protected commissions and credit card fees recognized in the quarter as a result of cancelled sailings announced through quarter end. The decrease in Capacity Days was primarily due to the cancellation of sailings in 2020 to stem the spread of COVID-19, partially offset by the addition of Norwegian Encore and Seven Seas Splendor to the fleet.

Total cruise operating expense increased 20.3% in 2020 compared to 2019, primarily due to costs associated with the suspension of cruise voyages, including the cost of the related protected commissions, a 27.2% increase in fuel expense associated with the IMO 2020 regulations and the addition of Norwegian Encore and Seven Seas Splendor to the fleet. Gross Cruise Costs per Capacity Day increased 34.5%. Adjusted Net Cruise Cost Excluding Fuel per Capacity Day increased 26.1% on a Constant Currency basis and 25.7% on an as reported basis.

Total other operating expense increased 396.0% in 2020 compared to 2019 primarily due to a $1.6 billion impairment loss in the quarter comprised of $1.3 billion related to goodwill and $0.3 billion related to aggregated impairments for tradenames. 

Fuel price per metric ton, net of hedges increased to $614 from $461 in 2019. The Company reported fuel expense of $125.0 million in the period. In addition, a loss of $14.3 million was recorded in other income (expense), net related to a reduction in forecasted fuel consumption resulting from voyage cancellations due to COVID-19.

Interest expense, net was $68.9 million in 2020 compared to $73.5 million in 2019. The change in interest expense reflects additional debt in connection with the delivery of Norwegian Encore and Seven Seas Splendor, partially offset by lower margins associated with recent refinancings prior to the draw on our revolving credit facilities and lower LIBOR. Included in 2019 were losses on extinguishment of debt and debt modification costs of $6.1 million.

Other income (expense), net was income of $5.8 million compared to expense of $0.4 million in 2019, primarily related to gains on foreign currency exchange partially offset by losses on fuel hedges released into earnings. A $14.3 million loss was recorded in the quarter related to a reduction in forecasted fuel consumption due to voyage cancellations, resulting in a de-designation of the associated fuel hedges.

2020 Outlook

As previously stated in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 24, 2020, given the meaningful and rapidly evolving impacts from the pandemic, the temporary suspension of sailings globally and the uncertainty and fluidity of the ongoing situation, the Company withdrew its first quarter and full year 2020 guidance provided earlier this year on its earnings call on February 20, 2020, which excluded known and unknown impacts from COVID-19. As a consequence of these known and unknown impacts, while the Company cannot estimate the impact on its business, financial condition or near- or longer-term financial or operational results with certainty, it expects to report a net loss on both a U.S. GAAP and adjusted basis for the second quarter ending June 30, 2020 and the year ending December 31, 2020.

The COVID-19 outbreak has had a significant impact on the Company’s financial position and results of operation. If the temporary suspension of sailings is further extended, the Company’s liquidity and financial position would likely continue to be significantly impacted.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company had hedged approximately 68%, 50%, 36% and 13% of its total projected metric tons of fuel consumption for the remainder of 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023, respectively. The following table provides amounts hedged and price per barrel of heavy fuel oil (“HFO”) which is hedged utilizing U.S. Gulf Coast 3% (“USGC”) and marine gas oil (“MGO”) which is hedged utilizing Gasoil. 

(1)     Represents a blended rate that includes a $5.6 million benefit from 2020 Brent hedges that were replaced with Gasoil hedges in the third quarter of 2018.

As of March 31, 2020, anticipated capital expenditures for the remainder of 2020 were $0.4 billion with export credit financing in place for the anticipated expenditures related to ship construction contracts of $0.1 billion. The Company is finalizing documentation for deferrals of approximately $170 million of newbuild related payments, net of financing, due through March 31, 2021. Once deferrals are finalized, anticipated total capital expenditures for the remainder of 2020 will be approximately $195 million. The Company is not providing capital expenditure guidance for 2021 and 2022 at this time given the uncertain and evolving current environment. The Company expects that the effects of COVID-19 on the shipyards where its ships are under construction, or will be constructed, will result in delays in ship deliveries, which may be prolonged. 

Conference Call

The Company has scheduled a conference call for Thursday, May 14, 2020 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time to discuss first quarter 2020 results and the current environment. A link to the live webcast along with a slide presentation can be found on the Company’s Investor Relations website at www.nclhltdinvestor.com.  A replay of the conference call will also be available on the website for 30 days after the call.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as Net Revenue, Net Yield, Net Cruise Cost, Adjusted Net Cruise Cost Excluding Fuel, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS, to enable us to analyze our performance. See “Terminology” for the definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures. We utilize Net Revenue and Net Yield to manage our business on a day-to-day basis and believe that they are the most relevant measures of our revenue performance because they reflect the revenue earned by us net of significant variable costs. In measuring our ability to control costs in a manner that positively impacts net income, we believe changes in Net Cruise Cost and Adjusted Net Cruise Cost Excluding Fuel to be the most relevant indicators of our performance.

As our business includes the sourcing of passengers and deployment of vessels outside of the U.S., a portion of our revenue and expenses are denominated in foreign currencies, particularly British pound, Canadian dollar, euro and Australian dollar, which are subject to fluctuations in currency exchange rates versus our reporting currency, the U.S. dollar. In order to monitor results excluding these fluctuations, we calculate certain non-GAAP measures on a Constant Currency basis whereby current period revenue and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are converted to U.S. dollars using currency exchange rates of the comparable period. We believe that presenting these non-GAAP measures on both a reported and Constant Currency basis is useful in providing a more comprehensive view of trends in our business.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is appropriate as a supplemental financial measure as it is used by management to assess operating performance. We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure in determining our performance as it reflects certain operating drivers of our business, such as sales growth, operating costs, marketing, general and administrative expense and other operating income and expense. Adjusted EBITDA is not a defined term under GAAP nor is it intended to be a measure of liquidity or cash flows from operations or a measure comparable to net income, as it does not take into account certain requirements such as capital expenditures and related depreciation, principal and interest payments and tax payments and it includes other supplemental adjustments.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain amounts and are used to supplement GAAP net income and EPS. We use Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS as key performance measures of our earnings performance. We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparison to our historical performance. In addition, management uses Adjusted EPS as a performance measure for our incentive compensation. The amounts excluded in the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures may vary from period to period; accordingly, our presentation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS and Adjusted EBITDA, may not be indicative of future adjustments or results. For example, for the three months ended March 31, 2019, we incurred $25.0 million related to the redeployment of Norwegian Joy from Asia to the U.S. We included this as an adjustment in the reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income since these expenses were not representative of our day-to-day operations however, this adjustment did not occur and is not included in the comparative period presented within this release.

You are encouraged to evaluate each adjustment used in calculating our non-GAAP financial measures and the reasons we consider our non-GAAP financial measures appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating our non-GAAP financial measures, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in our presentation. Our non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Our presentation of our non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to other companies. Please see a historical reconciliation of these measures to the most comparable GAAP measure presented in our consolidated financial statements below.
