AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · Universal Health Services (UHS)

UHS raises 2025 adjusted EPS forecast to $21.50-$22.10; Q3 diluted EPS $5.86

Positive Impact 4 of 5 guidance Written later

Universal Health Services reported third-quarter 2025 net revenues up 13.4% to $4.495 billion and diluted EPS of $5.86, versus $3.80 a year earlier, and raised its full-year 2025 forecast for net revenues, Adjusted EBITDA net of NCI and Adjusted EPS-diluted. The board also added $1.5 billion to the stock repurchase authorization, bringing the available total to $1.759 billion, which matters to shareholders because it raises both the earnings outlook and the capacity for share buybacks.

  • Q3 results included $90 million of pre-tax Medicaid reimbursements for Washington, D.C. and a $35 million pre-tax charge for professional and general liability reserves
  • 2025 Adjusted EPS-diluted forecast raised to $21.50-$22.10 from $20.00-$21.00; net revenues forecast raised to $17.306-$17.445 billion
  • Board authorized a $1.5 billion increase to the stock repurchase program on October 27, 2025; 1.315 million shares repurchased in Q3 2025 for about $234.3 million
