May 4 (Reuters) - Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings NCLH.N cut its annual profit forecast on Monday, as the cruise operator battles surging fuel costs linked to ongoing tensions in the Middle East, as well as tepid demand for its sea voyages.

The company expects adjusted profit for fiscal 2026 to be between $1.45 and $1.79 per share, compared with its prior forecast of $2.38 per share.
