UnitedHealth's 1Q Results Exceed Expectations; Shares Remain Undervalued

First-quarter performance at UnitedHealth Group tracked slightly better than our expectations. However, we don't intend to make many changes to our projections and anticipate our $300 fair value estimate will remain largely unchanged, implying roughly 20 times our estimate of adjusted earnings in 2019. With the market currently valuing the stock below 16 times, we think investors would be well served picking up shares of this wide-moat enterprise.
Consolidated revenue growth continued to impress...
