Proceeds from the offering of senior unsecured notes to be used to redeem $993 million 7.625% senior unsecured notes due 2026&nbsp;
MIAMI, May 12, 2025 /PRNewswire/ --&nbsp;Carnival Corporation &amp;&nbsp;plc ((NYSE/LSE: CCL, NYSE:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CUK#NYSE">CUK</a>) today announced that Carnival Corporation (the "Company") priced its private offering (the "Notes Offering") of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.875% senior unsecured notes due 2031 (the "Notes"). The Company expects to use the net proceeds from the Notes Offering to redeem the Company's $993 million 7.625% senior unsecured notes due 2026 (the "2026 Unsecured Notes").
The Notes Offering and the redemption of the 2026 Unsecured Notes are a continuation of the Company's strategy to reduce interest expense and manage its future debt maturities. The Company expects to reduce net annual interest expense by over $20 million through the scheduled maturity date of the 2026 Unsecured Notes as a result of the transaction and its partial redemption of $350 million of the 2026 Unsecured Notes earlier this year. In addition, the indenture that will govern the Notes will have investment grade-style covenants.
The Notes Offering is expected to close on May 21, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions. The previously announced redemption of the 2026 Unsecured Notes is expected to occur on May 22, 2025, and is conditioned on the closing of the Notes Offering.
The Notes will pay interest semi-annually on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2025, at a rate of 5.875% per year. The Notes will be unsecured and will mature on June 15, 2031. The Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured basis, jointly and severally, by Carnival plc and certain of the Company's and Carnival plc's subsidiaries that also guarantee our first-priority secured indebtedness, certain of our other unsecured notes and our convertible notes.

Shares of travel and leisure stocks are trading higher after the US and China agreed to a temporary reduction in most tariffs on each other's goods. This could reduce economic uncertainty that has been clouding travel and spending outlook.

Shares of travel-linked stocks are trading higher amid overall market strength following April's jobs data and reports that China's Commerce Ministry is assessing possible trade talks with the US. Better-than-feared jobs data and a potential trade deal could ease some concerns over consumer spending.

Shares of Carnival Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCL#NYSE">CCL</a>) fell 2.65% to $18.22 during Wednesday&#8217;s session following weaker-than-expected <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/45106948/norwegian-cruise-line-tumbles-after-earnings-miss-still-confident-in-2025-guidance">first-quarter earnings</a> from rival Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd, sparking renewed investor anxiety about softening demand and rising operational pressures across the cruise sector.
What To Know: Norwegian missed both earnings and revenue estimates for the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/g45094877/norwegian-cruise-line-holdings-reports-first-quarter-2025-financial-results">first-quarter</a>, reporting adjusted EPS of 7 cents—22% below consensus—and a 2.9% year-over-year revenue decline, despite a robust delivery pipeline and a slew of capital investments, including the debut of its new Norwegian Aqua vessel.
The company also acknowledged pressures from reduced capacity days due to dry-docks, and flagged foreign exchange losses and softening booking trends, particularly in its 12-month forward position.

For Carnival, the implications are significant. As an operator, Carnival is highly sensitive to shifts in consumer sentiment, macroeconomic weakness, and competitive pricing pressures. Norwegian's results suggest possible headwinds in occupancy and net yield growth—metrics closely watched across the industry.
Furthermore, Carnival&#8217;s own debt load and exposure to similar input costs, such as fuel and dry-dock expenses, could magnify the impact of such bearish signals.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy CCL Stock</h2>
By now you're likely curious about how to participate in the market for Carnival &#8211; be it to purchase shares, or even attempt to bet against the company.
Buying shares is typically done through a brokerage account. You can find a list of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/best-stock-trading-platforms">possible trading platforms here.</a> Many will allow you to buy &#8220;fractional shares,&#8221; which allows you to own portions of stock without buying an entire share.
In the case of Carnival, which is trading at $18.22 as of publishing time, $100 would buy you 5.49 shares of stock.
If you're looking to bet against a company, the process is more complex. You'll need access to an options trading platform, or a broker who will allow you to &#8220;go short&#8221; a share of stock by lending you the shares to sell. The process of shorting a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock">stock can be found at this resource.</a> Otherwise, if your broker allows you to trade options, you can either buy a put option, or sell a call option at a strike price above where shares are currently trading &#8211; either way it allows you to profit off of the share price decline.
According to data from&nbsp;<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, CCL has a 52-week high of $28.72 and a 52-week low of $13.78.

What's Going On With Carnival Stock Following Norwegian Cruise Line Earnings?

Shares of cruise stocks are trading lower in sympathy with Norwegian Cruise Line, which missed Q1 earnings and revenue estimates.

Rivals generally don't provide aid to each other, although in an indirect way, cruise ship operator Carnival Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCL#NYSE">CCL</a>) may be on the cusp of receiving residual benefits from its key competitor. Just recently, Royal Caribbean Cruises (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RCL#NYSE">RCL</a>) posted its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/movers-shakers/25/04/45066484/royal-caribbean-cruises-q1-benefits-from-strong-demand-stock-surges">first-quarter fiscal 2025 earnings</a> report and overall, the results were quite encouraging. It may be just what the CCL stock needs to find its footing following a rough outing so far this year.
On the top line, Royal Caribbean posted $4 billion, implying sales growth of 7.2% on a year-over-year basis. This figure only marginally missed the analysts' consensus target of $4.01 billion — not a bad showing considering the deflated macro environment, particularly in terms of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/45074861/us-consumer-expectations-falls-to-13-year-lows-as-recession-fears-inflation-worries-surge">consumer sentiment</a>. Notably, passenger ticket revenues rose 7.9% year-on-year to $2.74 billion, while cruise operating expenses ticked up to $2.07 billion from $2.05 billion a year ago.
Royal Caribbean CEO Jason Liberty remarked that the company is navigating "the complexities of the current macroeconomic landscape" while implementing solutions to optimize revenue and manage costs.
Following the disclosure, RCL popped sharply higher during the premarket session. However, in the early hours of the open market session, the equity was volatile. Nevertheless, the core fundamental argument is that Royal's results may be signifying a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/04/45071496/whats-going-on-with-carnival-stock-following-royal-caribbean-earnings">return of consumer demand</a> along with pricing power in the cruise industry.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Looking At The True Demand Profile Of CCL Stock</h2>
While the recent headlines deliver much-needed encouragement for Carnival investors, the reality is that it's one piece of a much bigger puzzle. At the most elemental level, the market makes a decision for any given time period whether to be a net buyer of CCL stock or not. This impetus, the trigger to transition from an observer to a buyer, is demand.
What makes demand such a compelling statistic is its binary nature. Unlike price, which is a continuous scalar signal (meaning that it theoretically extends into infinity), demand has boundaries. Demand is defined or discrete. By logical deduction, demand is either happening or it's not happening — there are no half-demand states.
Thanks to this fundamental attribute, demand represents one of the few metrics that can be meaningfully measured across sentiment regimes. In other words, prices often change over decades but the impetus to buy (or not to buy) largely remains the same: when a security is purchased, it's reasonable to assume that whatever was contextually meaningful at the point of transaction triggered the greed component of the fear-greed spectrum.
Using Markovian principles of probabilistic logic, these demand triggers can be quantified and categorized for empirical analysis. Specific to CCL stock, the security printed in the past 10 weeks a "4-6" sequence: four up weeks interspersed with six down weeks, with a negative trajectory across the period.
Generally, when this sequence flashes, the odds of upside success in the subsequent week (which corresponds with the business week beginning April 28) is around 55.1%, giving the bulls a slight edge. No, it's not a game-changing shift in the probabilities. However, in the prior 30 weeks leading up to the last-10-week period, the demand profile was up week dominant, 18 weeks up to 12 weeks down.
In other words, the last 10 weeks, with their bearishly dominated profile, may have been a brief corrective spell. Moving forward, it's quite possible that the bulls may attempt to take control.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Strategizing for the Potential Upswing</h2>
Forecasting isn't an exact science obviously. That said, based on empirical data projected forward, there's a possibility that CCL stock can drive above the $19.40 level, perhaps touch $19.50 over the next two to three weeks. With that in mind, the most aggressive multi-leg options strategy arguably available that's within the realm of rationality is the 18.50/19.50 bull call spread expiring May 16.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="576" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/29150958/CCL-stock-10wk-forecast-1024x576.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-893645" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/29150958/CCL-stock-10wk-forecast-1024x576.jpg 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/29150958/CCL-stock-10wk-forecast-300x169.jpg 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/29150958/CCL-stock-10wk-forecast-768x432.jpg 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/29150958/CCL-stock-10wk-forecast.jpg 1280w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Image by author</figcaption></figure>
The above transaction involves buying the $18.50 call and simultaneously selling the $19.50 call, for a net debit paid of $50. Should CCL stock rise through the short strike price at expiration, the maximum reward stands at $50, a nice payout of 100%.
What makes this option strategy particularly sweet is twofold. First, the high payout implies that the market makers believe the odds of success are unfavorable. Nevertheless, the actual demand profile and empirical probabilities suggest otherwise. Second, implied volatility is several ticks lower than historic volatility, suggesting a lower overall premium to cover the risk of unexpected kinesis.
Bottom line? Wall Street right now appears to be discounting the idea that CCL stock can recover. This can be an intriguing contrarian opportunity, especially because it's offered at a relative discount.

Options Corner: Carnival Could Be Setting Sail Toward A Contrarian Comeback

Carnival Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCL#NYSE">CCL</a>) shares initially gained 3% to $19.44 Tuesday morning, before reversing lower, amid Royal Caribbean's strong <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/movers-shakers/25/04/45066484/royal-caribbean-cruises-q1-benefits-from-strong-demand-stock-surges">first-quarter earnings</a>, potentially signaling robust consumer demand and pricing power in the cruise industry.
RCL stock traded higher by some 5% to $228.00 pre-market before dipping into the red during early Tuesday trading.
What To Know: Royal Caribbean reported a 26% jump in operating income to $945 million and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/n45061747/royal-caribbean-group-reports-first-quarter-results-and-increases-full-year-guidance">an occupancy rate of 108.8%</a>, reflecting increased passenger demand. 
Passenger ticket revenue climbed nearly 8% year-over-year, and gross margin yields rose 13.9%, showing the cruise sector's ability to drive profitability despite macroeconomic pressures.
For Carnival, which operates under brands like Princess, Holland America, and Cunard, Royal Caribbean's success is a bullish signal. Both companies compete in similar markets and benefit from industry-wide tailwinds such as strong booking trends and pricing resilience. 
Importantly, Royal Caribbean raised its full-year adjusted EPS forecast significantly—from $14.35–$14.65 to $14.55–$16.55—on the back of yield growth and cost control, suggesting favorable conditions for peers like Carnival.

Shares of companies in the broader consumer discretionary sector are trading lower amid trade war escalations and President Trump's sweeping tariffs, which are leading to a decline in consumer confidence. Some economists also predict that households will experience higher costs of goods as a result of these policies.

Carnival Corporation&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCL#NYSE">CCL</a>) share price dropped on Monday after the company confirmed an order for two new <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/n44660777/carnival-corporation-finalizes-agreement-with-fincantieri-for-two-next-generation-aida-cruises-shi" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">vessels for its German brand</a>.
Under the agreement with Italian shipbuilder Fincantieri, the ships—designed to run on multiple fuel types—will be constructed and are scheduled for delivery in the first quarters of fiscal years 2030 and 2032.
These ships will represent a new class of mid-sized cruise liners. CEO Josh Weinstein noted that with the latest order, Carnival Corporation now has a total of eight new ships in its construction pipeline, slated for delivery through 2033.
This includes the Star Princess, set to debut this year. One new vessel will follow each year from 2027 through 2033.
Felix Eichhorn, president of Rostock, Germany-based AIDA Cruises, said the ships have approximately 2,100 cabins each.
On Saturday, Carnival Cruise unveiled a series of upcoming initiatives aimed at enhancing guest <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/n44659147/carnival-cruise-line-unveils-an-exciting-innovation-itinerary-of-new-ships-fleet-enhancements-depl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">experiences over the next five years</a>.
These plans include the introduction of new ships, fleet upgrades, strategic deployment changes, and exclusive destinations.

Shares of travel and tourism-related companies are trading lower as global markets continue to decline following President Trump's announcement of sweeping tariffs.

Shares of Carnival Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CCL#NYSE">CCL</a>) have tumbled 14.5% to $16.33 since Monday&#8217;s open as President Donald Trump&#8217;s new reciprocal tariffs sent shockwaves through global markets, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/04/44647678/nasdaq-100-enters-bear-market-dow-in-correction-territory-traders-await-fed-chair-powells-remarks">stoking concerns</a> of an economic slowdown that could hit the travel industry hard.
Why It Matters: As the world's largest cruise operator, Carnival is particularly vulnerable to economic downturns and rising operational costs—both of which are being amplified by the escalating trade war.
Operating renowned brands like Princess Cruises, Holland America Line and Seabourn, Carnival depends heavily on discretionary consumer spending and international travel.
However, with tariffs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44621408/market-access-has-a-price-trump-unveils-list-of-tariffs-countries-targeted">expected to drive up</a> prices on goods and services, vacation budgets may tighten, leading to weaker cruise bookings. At the same time, higher import costs for fuel, food and ship maintenance could further squeeze profit margins.
Bigger Risks Ahead?: Beyond cost concerns, retaliatory measures from key markets—notably the European Union—pose another significant risk. 
If trade tensions slow global economic growth, consumer confidence could erode, further pressuring demand for leisure travel.
