However, Jefferies believes Royal shares fully reflects these positives. It thinks Royal "is priced for perfection."

$210 → $225
2025-02-03
Reason
Morgan Stanley analyst Stephen Grambling notes that during its Q4 earnings release, Royal Caribbean (RCL) announced the expansion of its vacation offerings with the launch of Celebrity River Cruises, a premium river cruise that is to begin taking bookings this year and start its brand in Europe, which "on the surface" appears to be "a small negative" for Viking Holdings (VIK). With Royal expected to launch its Celebrity brand of 10 river vessels, and assuming about 180 berths per ship, would imply about 2,000 additional berths into the market, or about 3% of FY23 river industry capacity and just over 10% of the Viking's total river fleet by FY27, estimates the analyst, calling the expected impact on Viking "modest." The firm, which adds that the news "does credentialize the return profile" of the river cruise industry, keeps an Overweight rating and $52 price target on Viking shares.
