Last month, UnitedHealth Group Inc (NYSE:UNH) reported better-than-expected quarterly results and raised its full-year earnings outlook.

UnitedHealth expects its margins to improve from 2026, and eyes the upper half of the 2% to 4% range by 2027. Analysts believe the company’s medical cost ratio is showing signs of peaking. The company plans to transition away from low-margin Medicare Advantage members, which could help its margins.

The London Company Income Equity Strategy stated the following regarding UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (NYSE:UNH) in its third quarter 2025 investor letter:

“Initiated: UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (NYSE:UNH) – UNH is the largest and most diversified health insurer in the U.S., anchored by two complementary platforms: UnitedHealthcare, which provides benefits to individuals and employers, and Optum, which offers healthcare services, data, and technology solutions. This integrated model gives UNH unmatched scale and insight into healthcare costs, enabling both efficiency and improved outcomes. Its vast provider networks, local dominance, and data-driven capabilities form durable competitive advantages and high barriers to entry. Long-term growth is supported by powerful demographics, as the aging U.S. population drives steady Medicare Advantage enrollment—a core UNH strength. While near-term elevated medical costs have pressured margins and weighed on the stock, we view these headwinds as temporary. UNH is already repricing future plans to reflect higher costs, supporting a gradual return to historical margin levels. With a recurring revenue base, diversified earnings, and financial strength, UNH offers attractive downside protection. At today’s valuation, we see a compelling opportunity to own a structural growth leader with resilient cash flows.”
