When does Carnival Corporation Ltd. (CCL) report earnings? Before the open in 12 of its last 12 reports

Of its last 12 earnings announcements: 12 before the open. Each one comes from the 8-K with item 2.02 that Carnival filed with the SEC, paired with the 10-Q or 10-K for that same quarter: 68 quarters since Sep 22, 2009, and every row links to its filing.

Next date: CCL does not appear in the announced-earnings calendar this site covers (Oct 21, 2026 to Nov 24, 2026). When the company announces the day it will show up here; until then there is no date, and an estimate of ours would not be one.

CCL window: when it reported before the open or during market hours, from the previous close to that day's. Split-adjusted closes and EPS with its estimate, from Yahoo Finance. It already happened: it does not anticipate the next announcement.

Where each number comes from

From the 8-K with item 2.02 ("Results of Operations and Financial Condition") that Carnival filed on EDGAR, the SEC's public database; only those with their 10-Q or 10-K behind them count, so other 8-Ks with the same item (production figures, monthly sales) stay out. The time is converted to New York time using this specific company's stamp convention (its EDGAR stamp arrives in UTC), and it is not assumed: it is derived from the hours in which EDGAR accepts filings.

What this data does not know

• The exact time of the press release: the 8-K reaches EDGAR minutes or hours later, so Carnival's median 09:17 is an upper bound. The session says which one the news landed in, not what minute it was said.
• Nothing before Sep 22, 2009: it is Carnival's oldest quarter with announcement and report paired in the file.
• What will happen. Every date on the page already happened. Carnival reporting before the open 38 quarters in a row does not say the next one will be the same.
• Carnival's identity is its SEC CIK (0000815097), not its symbol: symbols get recycled and renamed.
