2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Liquidity
As of June 30, 2024, we had liquidity of approximately $
We will continue to pursue various opportunities to refinance future debt maturities to reduce interest expense and/or to 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, 2023, which are included in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 28, 2024.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the basic weighted-average number of shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) and assumed conversion of exchangeable notes by diluted weighted-average shares outstanding.
A reconciliation between basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share was as follows (in thousands, except share and per share data):

Each exchangeable note (see Note 8 – “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 above. During the three months ended June 30, 2023 and the six months ended June 30, 2024, the 2024 Exchangeable Notes, 2025 Exchangeable Notes and 2027 2.5% Exchangeable Notes were anti-dilutive. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, each of the exchangeable notes was anti-dilutive. 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, 2024 and 2023, a total of

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance
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 includes additional disclosures on an interim and annual basis and requires that the disclosures be applied to public entities that have a single reportable segment. These provisions are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods after December 15, 2024. ASU 2023-07 shall be applied retrospectively unless it is impracticable to do so. We are evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-07 on our notes to the consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, 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 should be applied on a prospective basis. We are evaluating the impact of ASU 2023-09 on our notes to the consolidated financial statements.
