Corporate and financial developments announced by Lindblad Expeditions provide further context. For the third quarter of 2025 the company reported revenue of $240.2 million, ahead of the $230.3 million forecast. However, reported earnings per share for the quarter were $0.00, below the expected $0.19.
Separately, the company disclosed a mandatory conversion of all outstanding 6.0% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock into approximately 9.0 million shares of common stock, to occur on February 3, 2026, after the stock price exceeded the required conversion threshold.
Following investor outreach and meetings with management, Stifel has increased its price target for Lindblad Expeditions to $23.00 and maintained a Buy rating. Benchmark reiterated a Buy rating and set a $18.00 price target, citing momentum after the ICR conference.
These combined items - insider sales under a prearranged plan, recent quarterly results with a revenue beat but an EPS miss, and imminent preferred-stock conversion that will add roughly 9.0 million common shares - form the factual backdrop for the transactions reported on January 27 and 28, 2026.
What investors should note - The director’s sales were executed via a Rule 10b5-1 plan, the shares were sold across two days at the price intervals stated above, and the company’s recent financial report and mandatory preferred conversion are material items disclosed by the company.
