Humana (Buy, TP: SEK53.00) - Back in capital allocation mode

The Q4 results solidified Humana’s return to stronger execution, with financial gearing again at an investment-grade level, allowing for more investor-friendly capital allocation (DPS SEK1.00 and renewed share buybacks). We find the new management’s priorities logical, and have minorly revised our 2025–2027e EPS. We reiterate our BUY and SEK53 target price on the operating and financial credentials, focusing on Humana’s market opportunity, operating profile, financial outlook and valuation.
