Adjusted earnings per share is a key measure of profit per share. This forecast gives investors a company view of future profits, which can shape expectations for the cruise operator's earnings and its stock.

Analyst inference

Royal Caribbean Group's own forecast is the context here: management expects $17.85 to $17.95 of adjusted profit per share for the full year, a range not a single figure, so the cruise operator's demand and costs still decide where results land.
