Valuing Norwegian Cruise Line stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Norwegian Cruise Line's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Norwegian Cruise Line's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 4x. In other words, Norwegian Cruise Line shares trade at around 4x recent earnings.
That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.
Norwegian Cruise Line's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 0.9247. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Norwegian Cruise Line's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Norwegian Cruise Line's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is USD$631.1 million.
The EBITDA is a measure of a Norwegian Cruise Line's overall financial performance and is widely used to measure a its profitability.

TTM: trailing 12 months
There are currently 42.9 million Norwegian Cruise Line shares held short by investors – that's known as Norwegian Cruise Line's "short interest". This figure is 8.5% down from 46.9 million last month.
There are a few different ways that this level of interest in shorting Norwegian Cruise Line shares can be evaluated.
Norwegian Cruise Line's "short interest ratio" (SIR) is the quantity of Norwegian Cruise Line shares currently shorted divided by the average quantity of Norwegian Cruise Line shares traded daily (recently around 15.2 million). Norwegian Cruise Line's SIR currently stands at 2.83. In other words for every 100,000 Norwegian Cruise Line shares traded daily on the market, roughly 2830 shares are currently held short.
However Norwegian Cruise Line's short interest can also be evaluated against the total number of Norwegian Cruise Line shares, or, against the total number of tradable Norwegian Cruise Line shares (the shares that aren't held by "insiders" or major long-term shareholders – also known as the "float"). In this case Norwegian Cruise Line's short interest could be expressed as 0.14% of the outstanding shares (for every 100,000 Norwegian Cruise Line shares in existence, roughly 140 shares are currently held short) or 0.1478% of the tradable shares (for every 100,000 tradable Norwegian Cruise Line shares, roughly 148 shares are currently held short).
Such a low SIR usually points to an optimistic outlook for the share price, with fewer people currently willing to bet against Norwegian Cruise Line.
