Financial Health Signals

Financial Profile 56/100

Based on FY2025 annual data. Scores normalized against common benchmarks. How we calculate these scores

Profitability

Royal Caribbean Group has an operating margin of 27.4%, meaning the company retains $27 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This strong profitability earns a score of 83/100, reflecting efficient cost management and pricing power. This is up from 24.9% the prior year.

Growth

Royal Caribbean Group's revenue grew 8.8% year-over-year to $17.9B, a solid pace of expansion. This earns a growth score of 48/100.

Leverage

Royal Caribbean Group carries a low D/E ratio of 1.81, meaning only $1.81 of long-term debt for every $1 of shareholders' equity. This conservative leverage earns a score of 65/100, indicating a strong balance sheet with room for future borrowing.

Liquidity

Royal Caribbean Group's current ratio of 0.18 means current assets barely cover short-term liabilities. This tight liquidity results in a low score of 0/100, which could limit financial flexibility.

Cash Flow

Royal Caribbean Group has a free cash flow margin of 6.9%, earning a moderate score of 42/100. The company generates positive cash flow after capital investments, but with room for improvement.

Returns

100

Royal Caribbean Group earns a strong 42.5% return on equity (ROE), meaning it generates $43 of profit for every $100 of shareholders' equity. This efficient capital use earns a returns score of 100/100. This is up from 38.0% the prior year.

Altman Z-Score Grey Zone

2.15

Royal Caribbean Group scores 2.15, placing it in the grey zone between 1.81 and 2.99. The score is driven primarily by a large market capitalization ($74.0B) relative to total liabilities ($31.4B). This signals moderate financial risk that warrants monitoring.

Piotroski F-Score Strong

7/9

Royal Caribbean Group passes 7 of 9 financial strength tests. All 4 profitability signals pass (positive income, cash flow, and earnings quality), 2 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, 1 of 2 efficiency signals pass.

Earnings Quality Cash-Backed

1.51x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Royal Caribbean Group generates $1.51 in operating cash flow ($6.5B OCF vs $4.3B net income). This indicates profits are well-supported by actual cash generation, not accounting adjustments.

Interest Coverage Adequate

4.9x

Royal Caribbean Group earns $4.9 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense ($4.9B vs $992.0M). This adequate coverage means the company can meet its interest obligations, but has limited cushion if earnings fall.
