UnitedHealth: Inflection Confirmation Imminent
UnitedHealth Group Incorporated navigated a turbulent 2025 with management changes, mispriced costs, and a surging medical cost ratio, but revenue growth remained robust. We expect 2026 EPS guidance in the high teens, signaling a double-digit rebound off 2025's $16.25–$16.50 floor, with confirmation of inflection imminent at the upcoming earnings. Dividend growth and a 2.8% yield provide income while awaiting margin recovery; buybacks are paused but likely to resume as cash flow improves.

Just recently, the company re-affirmed its full year earnings guidance for 2026, a number that implies significant growth over the trailing 12 month period.
