Analysts Say to Temper Expectations on Viking's Strong Outlook -- Market Talk

Dow Jones05-15

0844 ET - Stifel analysts say Viking's initial 2027 outlook is extremely encouraging, but investors should probably rein in their enthusiasm. "This year's initial yield look into 2027 is much, much higher than we/Street were expecting, and our fear now is that investors will get ahead of their skis," the analysts say. Investors may assume Viking's 2027 yields will settle more in the upper-single or low-double digit range, which is possible, but still uncertain given the cruise company still has about 60% of inventory left to sell, the analysts say, noting demand and macroeconomic patterns can change quickly. "What we are trying to say is yes, this initial look is extremely encouraging but also temper your expectations a bit," they say. (kelly.cloonan@wsj.com)
