A meaningful DCF fair value isn't available for Carnival Corporation & plc (CCL) — its free-cash-flow and net-debt profile makes a standard discounted-cash-flow model unreliable (common for loss-makers and high-net-debt or recently-public companies), and no analyst DCF is published. Explore your own assumptions with the editable model below.
What would today's price require?
$27.67 is justified only if free cash flow grows about +44.9% a year (fading to 2.5% long-run) at a 11.5% required return — slower than the company has actually grown.
| Scenario | FCF growth (fading to 2.5%) | Discount | Value / share |
|---|---|---|---|
| Conservative | 15.0%/yr | 12.5% | N/A |
| Base case | 18.0%/yr | 11.5% | N/A |
| Optimistic | 20.0%/yr |
| 10.5% |

Edit the assumptions to see how they change the estimated fair value. Opens seeded with TGM's data-driven base case for CCL (growth from its own 5-year record, discount from its beta), so the sandbox starts where the scenarios above leave off. Illustrative model — not investment advice.
