Data as of
November 1, 2026
  1. From profit to three straight losses. Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings earned $2.6 billion in 2017–2019. Then it lost money every year from 2020 to 2022: $10.8 billion in all. 2023 was its first profit in four years: $0.2 billion.
  2. The cycle hit it too. The losses began in 2020, when the US economy shrank 2.1%. Part of the damage came from outside; the test is whether it recovered when the economy did.
  3. Leaders came and went. Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings filed 43 leadership changes since 2016, more than 96% of large transportation and utility companies (the median is 12). The day after each, its shares fell a median 0.5 points against its sector.
