The facts

  1. For the quarter ended 30 September, GAAP net income rose to US$491 million from US$419 million a year earlier. GAAP earnings were US$1.07 a share; the US$1.12 adjusted figure uses a different, non-GAAP basis. [1]

  2. Adjusted EBITDA was US$937 million, above the company's own US$874 million guidance. The comparisons here concern management guidance, not an independently verified analyst consensus. [1]

  3. The revised full-year outlook calls for roughly US$2.55 billion in adjusted EBITDA and US$789 million in adjusted net income. Its fourth-quarter forecast includes an adjusted loss of about US$0.12 a share. [1]

  4. Third-quarter net yield fell 6.7% at constant currency from a year earlier. The company said its booked position for the coming 12 months had improved modestly but remained below its optimal range. [1][2]

  5. Total debt at 30 September was US$15.1 billion. Management's forecasts remain prospective rather than achieved results. [1]
