Frequently asked questions
What is Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd's revenue?
Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd's trailing twelve-month revenue is $10.03B. Revenue is the top line the whole model builds on, and at this scale the question shifts from how fast it grows to whether margins hold as it compounds.
How profitable is NCLH?
In its most recent fiscal year, NCLH ran a gross margin of 31.97%, an operating margin of 16.21%, and a net margin of 4.31%. Margins this high mean most of each extra dollar of revenue drops through to profit, which is the signature of real pricing power.
How much free cash flow does NCLH generate?
NCLH produced $-1.17B in free cash flow in its most recent fiscal year. Free cash flow is what is left after running and reinvesting in the business, and it is the cash that actually funds buybacks, dividends, and a stronger balance sheet.
Is NCLH's balance sheet healthy?
NCLH holds $209.89M in cash and equivalents against $13.73B in long-term debt, on $2.21B of shareholder equity. That debt is best read against the cash flow the business throws off each year.
