COMMODORE HOLDINGS LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. The Financial Statements for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 and 1996,
included herein have been prepared by Commodore Holdings Limited (the "Company")
without audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. All adjustments which are, in the opinion of management,
necessary for a fair statement for the results of the three and nine months are
included. Certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in
Financial Statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and
regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the
financial statements for the year ended September 30, 1996, contained in the
Company's annual report on Form 10-K.
2. Fair value of warrants issued to non-employees. The Company issued warrants
to purchase 150,000 shares of common stock to an outside consultant in October,
1996, in payment for consulting services (see note K to the Company's financial
statements for the year ended September 30, 1996). Under the application of FASB
#123 the Company has valued these warrants at approximately $75,000.
Accordingly, this amount is being charged to operating expense over the vesting
period (between the issue date and November 1997).
3. Earnings Per Share. The Company's earnings per share are calculated using the
modified treasury stock method. This method was used for the nine months ended
June 30, 1997, because the number of shares of common stock issuable on exercise
of stock options and warrants, in the aggregate, exceeded 20 percent of the
number of shares of common shares outstanding. The weighted average number of
common and common equivalent shares outstanding for the nine months ended June
30, 1997 and 1996 is 6,691,546 and 5,184,711, respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is an analysis of the Company's results of operation, liquidity
and capital resources. To the extent that such analysis contains statements
which are not of a historical nature, such statements are forward-looking
statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. These risks include competing
in a saturated industry against modern and larger fleets; the ability of the
Company to obtain additional financing for the acquisition of additional ships;
a high percentage of debt on assets owned by the Company, the potential for
additional governmental regulations; the need for expensive upgrades and/or
maintenance to aging vessels; general economic factors in markets where the
Company operates; and other factors discussed in the Company's filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE QUARTERS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1996
Three Months Ended June 30, 1997, compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 1996
The Company's revenues decreased by $ 947,014, or 6.24%, and the Company's
operating expenses decreased by $1,563,512, or 12.41% for the three months ended
June 30, 1997 compared to the three months ended June 30, 1996, primarily due to
the Universe Explorer's twenty-four days out of service for repairs and
maintenance and Safety Of Life At Sea ("SOLAS") upgrades.
Marketing, selling and administrative expenses increased by $758,407, or 55.54%,
for the three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to the three months ended June
30, 1996, due to the recognition of marketing, selling and administrative
expenses for the World Explorer Cruises Alaska program which began in the third
quarter of 1997. In 1996, the World Explorer Cruises Alaska program began in the
fourth quarter. The Company's depreciation and amortization expense increased by
$61,604, or 15.05%, for the three months ended June 30, 1997 compared to the
three months ended June 30, 1996 due to additional property and equipment placed
in service over the intervening period.
Due to the Company's higher overnight investments of its operating accounts as
well as its restricted investment of $4,629,000, the Company recorded $135,651
of interest income in the third quarter of fiscal 1997 compared to $82,517 in
the third quarter of fiscal 1996. The Company's Sea-Comm joint venture partner's
share of the loss incurred by the joint venture for the three months ended June
30, 1997 is reflected in the $429,198 line item for "Minority interest in loss
(earnings) of consolidated joint venture." The joint venture incurred this loss
primarily as a result of the low occupancy on the Company's Latin America and
Alaska programs.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1996
Nine Months Ended June 30, 1997, compared to Nine Months Ended June 30, 1996
Revenues increased by $5,786,624, or 16.85%, for the nine months ended June 30,
1997 compared to the nine months ended June 30, 1996 primarily due to the
Company having two vessels in service for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 as
compared to only one vessel in service for the entire nine months ended June 30,
1996 and one vessel which began service in January 1996.
The Company's operating expenses increased by $5,181,678, or 19.51%, and the
Company's marketing, selling and administrative expenses increased by $734,738,
or 14.32%, for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 compared to the nine months
ended June 30, 1996. The Company's operating expenses increased at a higher
percentage than the Company's revenues as a result of low occupancy on the
Company's initial Latin America program operated by World
PAGE 7
<PAGE>
Explorer Cruises. The Company did not earn revenue from such program in the
first quarter of fiscal 1996. The Company's depreciation and amortization
expense increased by $352,405, or 34.24%, for the nine months ended June 30,
1997 compared to the nine months ended June 30, 1996, because depreciation
expense for the Universe Explorer did not begin to accrue until January, 1996
when the vessel entered cruise service.
In the nine months ended June 30, 1996, the Company recorded $340,641 in other
income relating to one time items associated with the Universe Explorer. No
comparable other income was received by the Company in the nine months ended
June 30, 1997. Due to the Company's overnight investments of its operating
accounts as well as its restricted investment of $4,629,000, the Company
recorded $336,432 of interest income in the first nine months of fiscal 1997
compared to $276,647 in the first nine months of fiscal 1996. The Company's
Sea-Comm joint venture partner's share of the loss incurred by the joint venture
for the nine months ended June 30, 1997 is reflected in the $971,246 line item
for "Minority interest in loss (earnings) of consolidated joint venture." The
Sea-Comm joint venture began operation in the second quarter of fiscal 1996. The
joint venture incurred this loss primarily as a result of the low occupancy on
the Company's Latin America and Alaska programs.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's working capital deficiency was $6,684,319 and $2,831,658 at June
30, 1997 and September 30, 1996, respectively. The Company's working capital
deficiency was primarily due to the inclusion, in non-current assets, of a
$4,629,000 deposit securing the Company's FMC bond. The corresponding liability,
customer's deposits, is included in the current liabilities. The increase in the
Company's working capital deficiency was primarily the result of the increase in
the current portion of long-term debt.
Cash flows from operations provided $5,152,689 for the first nine months of
fiscal 1997 and provided $6,124,392 for the first nine months of fiscal 1996.
Cash flows for the first nine months of fiscal 1997 consisted primarily of
decreases in restricted cash as a result of a more favorable credit card
processing agreement entered into by the Company in November 1996, collection of
the insurance claim receivable and decreases in inventories.
At June 30, 1997, the Company owed $22,336,909 to the Company's lender. The loan
is secured by substantially all the assets of the Company and bears interest at
LIBOR plus 2%. The interest rate as of June 30, 1997 is 7.75%.
The Company incurred capital expenditures for the first nine months of 1997 of
$2,126,614. Included in this amount were renovations to the Universe Explorer to
conform to SOLAS. In June 1997, the vessel received all the appropriate
certificates showing that it meets current SOLAS requirements. The Enchanted
Isle will undergo similar renovations during dry-dock which begins in the next
fiscal year.
