Royal Caribbean Cruises Ltd. is a prominent global operator within the cruise sector. The company manages several well-known cruise lines, such as Royal Caribbean International, Celebrity Cruises, Azamara, and Silversea Cruises. Through these brands, it offers a wide array of voyages that call upon approximately 1,000 different destinations across the globe. As of February 25, 2022, its expansive fleet comprised 61 vessels. Established in 1968, the company's corporate headquarters are situated in Miami, Florida.
The price at $235 sits at the very bottom of the published analyst targets, rejecting the 8 bullish models entirely and endorsing only the most cautious view that the company will not accelerate beyond its current pace.
What the disagreement turns on
Can Royal Caribbean accelerate its revenue growth and expand its free cash flow margin enough to meet the 23% CAGR the reverse-DCF requires, or will rising costs and debt drag it back to the single-digit pace the current price assumes?
The price pays for
It declines to pay for
Written by a language model from the published models, the reported segments and a reverse-DCF — not a recommendation, and not a house view.
