Forecast for Universal Health Services, Inc.'s Future Growth
Universal Health Services, Inc. (NYSE:UHS) analysts are predicting a 7.3% increase in revenue and an 8.4% rise in statutory earnings per share for 2025. The company's revenue growth is expected to continue on its current trajectory, only surpassing the industry average of 6.9% annual growth over the past five years. However, analysts' bullish outlook seems to be driven by a revised estimate of earnings per share, rather than any significant changes to expectations for next year.
- The relatively narrow range of individual analyst estimates may suggest that investors can expect a more predictable outcome from Universal Health Services in 2025, despite the slight upgrade to earnings per share forecasts.
- Will this modest growth in revenue be enough to justify the company's valuation, which has been valued at around US$231, or will investors demand more significant improvements before reassessing the stock's long-term prospects?
