The 12-month analyst consensus target is $215.76, about 28.3% above the current $168.23. A consensus target is the average of Wall Street's 12-month forecasts, so it works as a sentiment gauge rather than a guarantee, and it resets with every earnings cycle.
What is the intrinsic value of Universal Health Services Inc (UHS)?
Our DCF model estimates intrinsic value at $178.30, a -29.7% margin of safety versus today's $168.23. Intrinsic value is what the projected cash flows are worth today. A negative reading means the price is running ahead of that conservative estimate, leaving little downside cushion if growth slows.
