During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2020, a $69.0 million loss was recorded within Other expense in our consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income, consisting of a $92.6 million loss resulting from the recognition of a currency translation adjustment, partially offset by the recognition of a deferred $23.6 million foreign exchange gain related to the Pullmantur net investment hedge. In connection with the Pullmantur reorganization, we no longer have significant involvement in the Pullmantur operations and these amounts previously deferred in Accumulated other comprehensive loss were recognized in earnings. Of the $69.0 million loss, $34.3 million was released from Accumulated other comprehensive loss as of June 30, 2020.
