-- 独立研究机构CFRA向提供了以下研究报告。CFRA分析师总结如下： UHS第一季度业绩稳健，调整后每股收益为5.62美元（同比增长16.1%），高于市场预期0.16美元。尽管患者数量不高，但由于价格上涨，营收仍增长9.6%至44.95亿美元。同店急性护理收入增长8.2%，调整后入院人数持平，但每次入院的收入增长6.3%；行为健康业务入院人数增长1.2%，收入增长7.3%。我们认为，以8.35亿美元收购Talkspace可能会扩展UHS的虚拟行为健康服务能力，并拓宽其支付方组合。管理层预计该交易将于第三季度完成。经营现金流增长11.7%至4.02亿美元，UHS回购了价值1.273亿美元的股票，但由于运营费用增加，调整后EBITDA利润率下降20个基点至14.4%。我们认为行为健康领域的人员配备挑战依然存在，但预计与Talkspace的整合将创造增长机会。
