BofA analyst Kevin Fischbeck raised the firm’s price target on Universal Health (UHS) to $190 from $165 and keeps an Underperform rating on the shares. The firm raised its 2025, 2026 and 2027 EBITDA estimates in keeping with guidance and applies a higher multiple to its new estimates given core acute business growth. However, the firm reiterates an Underperform rating as it sees UHS having above average exposure to policy changes while its core results “remain weak,” the analyst tells investors.
