Deep Analysis
The current ratio of 0.27x means Carnival Corporation's current assets cover only 27% of its current liabilities, showing a very weak ability to meet short-term obligations.
For context, the sector median among Consumer Cyclical peers is 1.44x, placing Carnival in the 3rd percentile — far below most competitors. Trend data is not available: the year-over-year change, quarter-over-quarter change, and last eight quarters are each listed as N/A, so no directional insight can be drawn. The combination of an extremely low current ratio with no trend information suggests a severe liquidity risk, as the company is in a precarious position with no evidence of recent improvement. This metric directly contradicts the overall NEUTRAL verdict, because a current ratio this low typically signals financial distress that would warrant a bearish assessment.
