UnitedHealth’s Stock Can Soar 40% as Antitrust Concerns Are Overblown, BofA Says

/ / Health Care /

By Tomi Kilgore Justice Department antitrust probe and recent cyberattack were bad news for UnitedHealth – but not as bad as stock’s selloff suggests, analyst says Shares of UnitedHealth Group Inc. rallied Thursday after a ringing endorsement from BofA Securities analyst Kevin Fischbeck, who said investor concerns about an antitrust investigation and a recent cyberattack are way overblown. Fischbeck reiterated his buy rating on the health insurer’s stock (UNH), which he said is now his “top pick.” His $675 price target – which makes Fischbeck the most bullish of the 28 analysts surveyed by FactSet who cover UnitedHealth – implies roughly 41% upside from current levels. The stock rose 0.9% in afternoon trading, after closing Wednesday at its lowest price since July 13, 2023. The bounce comes after UnitedHealth shares tumbled 10.4% amid an eight-session losing streak, which was their longest such streak since an eight-day stretch that ended March

CFRA Keeps Hold Opinion On Shares Of Exxon Mobil Corporation

/ / Energy /

CFRA, an independent research provider, has provided MT Newswires with the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows: Per the Wall Street Journal, XOM has filed for arbitration to retain what it believes is a right of first refusal (ROFR) over the 30% stake in oil and gas development in Guyana held by Hess Corporation (HES 145 ***). XOM is citing the ROFR in response to HES’s agreement to be acquired by rival Chevron Corp. (CVX 150 ***), which was announced in 2023. We believe the Court will have to determine whether the way in which the merger was structured, and the way in which the joint operating agreement (JOA) in the Guyana development between the key parties was written, entitle XOM to invoke the ROFR or not. Given that the terms of the JOA have not been publicly disclosed, we do not have an

CFRA Reiterates Buy Opinion On Shares Of Netflix, Inc.

/ / Consumer Discretionary /

CFRA, an independent research provider, has provided MT Newswires with the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows: We raise our target by $40 to $650 using a forward TEV/EBITDA of 29.7x, below the three-year historic average at 32.0x. We keep our EPS estimate at $17.05 in 2024 and $20.60 in 2025, both near consensus. On valuation, we are comfortable with a wider risk premium given NFLX is widening its lead over its competitors, in our opinion, and has new revenue streams (advertising, ad-pay plans, and paid share members) to spur growth. We believe NFLX has a best-in-class technology platform, programming, and global distribution. The company never stops innovating and management is disciplined with a $17B programming and content annual budget. NFLX has a major opportunity as TV viewers shift to streaming from linear networks, while most of its direct competitors have to transition from
