•10-Year Mean: 18.80x

•NTM FCF Yield: 11.28%
•5-Year Mean: 5.70%

As you can see, $UNH appears to be trading below fair value

Going forward, investors can receive ~68% MORE in earnings per share & ~98% MORE in FCF per share 🧠***

Before we get into valuation, let’s take a look at why $UNH is a good business

MARGINS🆗

•LTM Net Income Margins: 5.4%

***NOW TO VALUATION 🧠

As stated above, investors can expect to receive ~68% MORE in EPS & ~98% MORE in FCF per share

Using Benjamin Graham’s 2G rule of thumb, $UNH has to grow earnings at a 5.59% CAGR over the next several years to justify its valuation

However, given recent events & the fact $UNH withdrew FY guidance for 2025, let’s assume $26.00 in EPS for 2027 (20% below current estimates) & see $UNH CAGR potential assuming different multiples:

2027E: $26.00
___

17x P/E: $442💵 … ~22.9% CAGR

16x P/E: $416💵 … ~20.1% CAGR

15x P/E: $390💵 … ~17.3% CAGR

14x P/E: $364💵 … ~14.4% CAGR

13x P/E: $338💵 … ~11.3% CAGR

12x P/E: $318💵 … ~8.1% CAGR

As you can see, $UNH appears to have attractive return potential even if we assume >13 earnings)

The question becomes: can we reasonably assume a 13x multiple for $UNH by the end of 2027?

There is great uncertainty moving forward so those buying $UNH today would be taking a leap of faith in future assumptions

Today at $275💵 $UNH appears to be a decent contrarian play with strong upside potential

However, for me, there is too much uncertainty surrounding $UNH and I’d rather reserve my capital to be invested in the world’s greatest quality companies that come with a high degree of certainty & significantly less exposure to political & regulatory risks

A contrarian bet on $UNH might pay off for bulls, but I’ve seen early moves like this hurt returns and miss better opportunities — quality businesses with far fewer risks and stronger predictability

Good luck to those who take that leap of faith 👍🏽
