[Cruise giant strikes back! Norwegian Cruise Line's bookings rebound strongly, and its stock price soars 10%] ⑴ Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings announced on Thursday that its cruise vacation demand is rebounding significantly after the market downturn at the beginning of the year. ⑵ The company also maintained its annual profit target unchanged, and this news pushed its stock price up 10% in pre-market trading. ⑶ According to data from the London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG), Norwegian Cruise Line reiterated its annual adjusted earnings per share forecast of US$2.05, higher than the market expectation of US$2.02. ⑷ CEO Harry Sommer said that demand for the company's three major brands has rebounded, and bookings in recent months have even exceeded historical levels for the same period. ⑸ In addition, onboard consumption has continued to maintain strong growth. ⑹ Although the company announced total revenue of US$2.52 billion in the second quarter, slightly lower than the market expectation of US$2.56 billion, this did not affect investors' confidence in its profitability for the full year. ⑺ The strong rebound in bookings has undoubtedly injected a shot in the arm for the cruise industry, indicating that consumer demand for travel and leisure and entertainment remains strong.
