What Happened?

Shares of cruise and exploration company Lindblad Expeditions (NASDAQ:LIND) jumped 25.1% in the afternoon session after the company reported third-quarter results that blew past analysts' sales and EPS expectations. Revenue was supported by the expansion of fleet and land experiences as the company reiterated its focus on delivering high-quality travel packages. 

On the other hand, its full-year revenue guidance was underwhelming, although this was offset by strong EBITDA guidance ahead of expectations. Overall, we think this was a solid quarter with some key areas of upside.
