  • Viking Holdings (VIK) Stock Valuation: Mixed Signals Amid Recent Momentum
    January 30, 2026, 7:12 PM EST. Viking Holdings (VIK) shares dipped 2.9% recently but showed strong momentum with an 18.57% rise over 90 days and a 42.5% total return for the year. Trading at $72.15, close to a $73.56 analyst target, Viking appears roughly 10% overvalued versus a fair value estimate of $72.06 based on current assumptions. However, a discounted cash flow (DCF) model suggests a higher intrinsic value of $94.58, indicating the market might be cautious about growth prospects. Strong advanced bookings for 2025 and 2026, coupled with pricing power, support earnings growth. Key risks remain from reliance on affluent travelers and potential margin pressure due to fuel and regulatory costs. Investors face a split view on whether Viking's valuation reflects a genuine discount or priced-in risks.
