Norwegian Cruise Line Posts $491.5M Q3 Net Income
NCLH sits 24% above its 52-week low of $13.631.
Summary
Norwegian Cruise Line reported third-quarter net income of $491.5 million, with EPS of $1.07 and adjusted EPS of $1.12, on revenue of $2.95 billion and adjusted EBITDA of $937 million. Gross margin per capacity day fell 16.7%. Back on September 30 the company said Q3 results would top its July guidance on stronger revenue and reaffirmed full-year 2026 guidance, so the profit figure lands against that raised bar. Context matters here: the August 10-Q showed a sharp cut to full-year 2026 guidance to roughly $1.50 a share on demand softness, which is why the stock has been under pressure, and the company has now raised its 2026 adjusted EBITDA view to about $2.55 billion. The company also just closed an upsized $950 million 8.750% senior notes offering on October 15, adding interest expense that will weigh on future quarters.
