Looking ahead, we continue to see strong momentum across our product offering with 70% of the 2026 capacity for our Core Products already sold.

Total revenue for the third quarter of 2025 was $1,999.6 million, an increase of $320.9 million, or 19.1%, over the same period in 2024 mainly driven by increased Capacity PCDs, higher Occupancy and higher revenue per PCD in 2025 compared to 2024.

Compared to the same period in 2024, vessel operating expenses increased $63.0 million, or 19.1%, and vessel operating expenses excluding fuel increased $61.7 million, or 21.7%, mainly driven by the increase in the size of the Company’s fleet in 2025 compared to 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA was $703.5 million, an increase of $149.2 million, or 26.9%, over the same period in 2024. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was mainly driven by increased Capacity PCDs, higher Occupancy and higher revenue per PCD.

Balance Sheet and Liquidity As of September 30, 2025: The Company had $3.0 billion in cash and cash equivalents and an undrawn revolver facility of $375.0 million. Scheduled principal payments are $956.9 million for the remainder of 2025 and $195.0 million for 2026. Deferred revenue was $4.3 billion. In September 2025, Moody’s upgraded Viking Cruises Ltd’s (“VCL”) corporate rating to Ba2 from Ba3. In October 2025, VCL issued $1,700 million of 5.875% senior unsecured notes due 2033. The net proceeds were used to fully redeem all outstanding 5.875% senior unsecured notes due 2027 and to repay the finance leases on two ocean ships and one expedition ship, with the balance designated to repay the finance lease on an additional ocean ship. In addition, in November 2025, VCL amended and upsized its existing revolving credit facility to a total of $1,000 million, extending the maturity date to 2030. “Our strong booking position for both 2025 and 2026 reflects the robust demand for Viking’s destination-focused offerings. This forward visibility gives us confidence in our growth trajectory and in our ability to continue delivering long-term value to stakeholders,” said Leah Talactac, President and CFO of Viking. “Since our last earnings release, we have also realized significant financial achievements. Moody’s upgraded Viking, we successfully issued $1.7 billion in senior unsecured notes, and upsized our revolving credit facility to $1.0 billion. We believe that these actions strengthen Viking’s capital structure and enhance our financial flexibility to pursue long-term growth.” New Build and Capacity Since our second quarter 2025 earnings release, the Company: Took delivery of four river vessels: The Viking Gyda and the Viking Honir , which will operate in Europe. The Viking Tonle, which will operate in Vietnam and Cambodia. The Viking Thoth, which will operate in Egypt.

Definitions “Adjusted Earnings per Share” or “Adjusted EPS” represents Adjusted Net Income (Loss) attributable to Viking Holdings Ltd divided by Adjusted Weighted-Average Shares Outstanding. “Adjusted EBITDA” is EBITDA (consolidated net income (loss) adjusted for interest income, interest expense, income tax benefit (expense) and depreciation, amortization and impairment) as further adjusted for non-cash Private Placement derivative gains and losses, currency gains or losses, stock-based compensation expense and other financial income (loss) (which includes forward gains and losses, gain or loss on disposition of assets, certain non-cash fair value adjustments, restructuring charges and non-recurring items). “Adjusted Gross Margin” is gross margin adjusted for vessel operating expenses and ship depreciation and impairment. Gross margin is calculated pursuant to IFRS Accounting Standards as total revenue less total cruise operating expenses and ship depreciation and impairment. “Adjusted Net Income (Loss) attributable to Viking Holdings Ltd” represents net income (loss) attributable to Viking Holdings Ltd excluding certain items that we believe are not part of our primary operating business and are not an indication of our future earnings performance. We believe that interest expense and Private Placement derivatives gain (loss) related to our Series C Preference Shares, warrants gain (loss), debt extinguishment and modification costs, gain (loss) on embedded derivatives associated with debt and financial liabilities, impairment charges and reversals and certain other gains and losses are not a part of our primary operating business and are not an indication of our future earnings performance. “Adjusted Weighted-Average Shares Outstanding” represents the diluted weighted-average ordinary shares and special shares outstanding, adjusted for outstanding warrants and the impact of RSUs and stock options under the treasury stock method to the extent not included in diluted weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding, as further adjusted in 2024 to reflect the conversion of the Series C Preference Shares and preference shares as if it had occurred at the beginning of the year. “Advance Bookings” is the aggregate ticketed amount for guest bookings for our voyages at a specific point in time, and include bookings for cruises, land extensions and air. “Capacity Passenger Cruise Days” or “Capacity PCDs” is, with respect to any given period, a measurement of capacity that represents, for each ship operating during the relevant period, the number of berths multiplied by the number of Ship Operating Days, determined on an aggregated basis for all ships in operation during the relevant period. “Core Products” are Viking River, Viking Ocean, Viking Expedition and Viking Mississippi, which are marketed to North America, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. “Diluted Earnings Per Share” or “Diluted EPS” is diluted net income (loss) per share attributable to ordinary and special shares. “IFRS Accounting Standards” are the IFRS® Accounting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. “Net Debt” is Total Debt plus lease liabilities net of cash and cash equivalents. “Net Leverage” is Net Debt divided by trailing four quarter Adjusted EBITDA. “Net Yield” is Adjusted Gross Margin divided by PCDs. “Occupancy” is the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of PCDs to Capacity PCDs with respect to any given period. We do not allow more than two passengers to occupy a two-berth stateroom. Additionally, we have guests who choose to travel alone and are willing to pay higher prices for single occupancy in a two-berth stateroom. As a result, our Occupancy cannot exceed 100%, and may be less than 100%, even if all our staterooms are booked. “Passenger Cruise Days” or “PCDs” is the number of passengers carried for each cruise, with respect to any given period and for each ship operating during the relevant period, multiplied by the number of Ship Operating Days. “Ship Operating Days” is the number of days within any given period that a ship is in service and carrying cruise passengers, determined on an aggregated basis for all ships in operation during the relevant period. “Total Debt” is indebtedness outstanding, gross of loan fees, excluding lease liabilities, Private Placement liabilities and Private Placement derivatives. “Vessel operating expenses excluding fuel” is vessel operating expenses less fuel expense. Except for per share data and Net Yield, all amounts are presented in United States Dollars (“$”) and all values are rounded to its applicable unit rounding convention. Non-IFRS Accounting Standards Financial Measures We use certain non-IFRS Accounting Standards financial measures, such as Adjusted Gross Margin, Net Yield, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) attributable to Viking Holdings Ltd and Adjusted EPS, to analyze our performance. We present Adjusted EBITDA as a performance measure because we believe it facilitates a comparison of our consolidated operating performance on a consistent basis from period-to-period and provides for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business than measures under IFRS Accounting Standards can provide alone. We also believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because it provides a means to evaluate the operating performance of our business on an ongoing basis using criteria that our management uses for evaluation and planning purposes. Because Adjusted EBITDA facilitates internal comparisons of our historical financial position and consolidated operating performance on a more consistent basis, our management also uses Adjusted EBITDA in measuring our performance relative to that of our competitors, assessing our ability to incur and service our indebtedness and in communications with our board of directors concerning our operating performance. We utilize Adjusted Gross Margin and Net Yield to manage our business because these measures reflect revenue earned net of certain direct variable costs. We also present certain non-IFRS Accounting Standards financial measures because we believe that they are widely used by certain investors, securities analysts and other interested parties as supplemental measures of performance and liquidity. Our non-IFRS Accounting Standards financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our operating results as reported under IFRS Accounting Standards. See “Definitions” for additional information about our non-IFRS Accounting Standards financial measures and “Non-IFRS Accounting Standards Reconciling Information” for a reconciliation for each non-IFRS Accounting Standards financial measure to the most directly comparable IFRS Accounting Standards financial measure.
