Latest updates for Royal Caribbean Cruises
February 20, 2025: In a Fox News interview on Wednesday, US commerce secretary Howard Lutnick said that President Trump would be cracking down on cruise lines that are based in America but avoid taxes by being registered elsewhere. Royal Caribbean, Norweigian and Carnival are all based in Miami, but they're registered in Liberia, Bermuda and Panama respectively. Lutnik stated: "this is going to end under Donald Trump and those taxes are going to be paid," and markets took the message seriously — with all three stocks tumbling in Thursday trading.

Is Royal Caribbean Cruises stock undervalued or overvalued?
Valuing Royal Caribbean Cruises stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Royal Caribbean Cruises's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Royal Caribbean Cruises's P/E ratio
Royal Caribbean Cruises's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 19x. In other words, Royal Caribbean Cruises shares trade at around 19x recent earnings.
That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.
Royal Caribbean Cruises's PEG ratio
Royal Caribbean Cruises's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.8734. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Royal Caribbean Cruises's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.

Royal Caribbean Cruises share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 14.39% of net profits
Recently Royal Caribbean Cruises has paid out, on average, around 0% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Royal Caribbean Cruises shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Royal Caribbean Cruises's case, that would currently equate to about $0.95 per share.
While Royal Caribbean Cruises's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Royal Caribbean Cruises is investing more in its future growth.
Royal Caribbean Cruises's most recent dividend payout was on 3 April 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 6 March 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Royal Caribbean Cruises's shares ever split?
Royal Caribbean Cruises's shares were
split on a 2:1 basis on 2 August 1998
. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Royal Caribbean Cruises shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Royal Caribbean Cruises shares which in turn could have impacted Royal Caribbean Cruises's share price.
Royal Caribbean Cruises share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Royal Caribbean Cruises's shares have ranged in value from as little as $124.047 up to $276.1158. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Royal Caribbean Cruises's is 2.544. This would suggest that Royal Caribbean Cruises's shares are significantly more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent a higher risk.
