Cruise season at risk
Outbreaks of COVID-19 onboard
and quarantined ships have
raised significant concerns.
CLIA has announced voluntary
suspensions of cruises from US
ports for 30 days.
Canada has closed its ports to
cruise ship calls until July 1.

Financial Considerations
COVID-19 will result in significant revenue reductions
Impacts are difficult to estimate given substantial uncertainty regarding
the depth and duration of the crisis, with new information arriving
almost daily
Key considerations are operating cash balances, operating & non-
operating cash flows, and capital spending
Revenue bond debt service coverage is also a key measure
Unlike many other governments, the Port is not required to match
revenue reductions with equivalent expense reductions
Credit markets are currently stressed, limiting access to outside capital

8

Responses/Early Actions
Conducting detailed financial analyses to assess impacts on cash flow
and liquidity
Hiring freeze in place
Identifying Port-wide operating and capital expenditure reductions
Reviewing other expenditures that may be deferred
Pursuing $200 million bank credit facility for additional liquidity
Planning for airport bond refunding for debt service savings/possible
restructuring when markets recover
Advocating for federal funding for economic support and recovery,
particularly for airports and small businesses

Limitations of Translatable Documents

PDF files are created with text and images are placed at an exact position on a page of a fixed size.
Web pages are fluid in nature, and the exact positioning of PDF text creates presentation problems.
PDFs that are full page graphics, or scanned pages are generally unable to be made accessible, In these cases, viewing whatever plain text could be extracted is the only alternative.
