Initiating Coverage at Outperform: Cruising Towards the Next Wave of Upside

OP $287.78 $370.00 $77,180

Rating Price Target Mkt Cap.

• We are initiating coverage of Royal Caribbean Cruises (RCL) with an Outperform rating and a $370

target price.

• RCL is our top pick in the Cruise sector, having optimized cruise – both keeping cruisers in its

an expanding portfolio of shore offerings and entrance into the river segment.

• Broader cruise industry tailwinds are favorable, war/oil headwinds are hopefully abating and

valuation isn't unreasonable even following a +12% move in the past month+.

price.

• Valuation is pricey, but we think you get what you pay for given VIK's position as a premium cruise

operator and resulting aspirational tailwinds, as well as its long-term growth algorithm of growing

capacity (River & Ocean) and yield expansion (MSD% target) supported by its affluent customer base

- which has been resilient recently in the face of macro headwinds.
