UnitedHealth Group (UNH) reported its Q1 2025 financial results, revealing a mixed bag of performance with revenue exceeding expectations but earnings per share falling short. The company experienced a significant increase in revenue, reaching $109.6 billion, driven by growth in Optum Health and Medicare Advantage businesses. However, the actual EPS (adj) stood at $7.20, compared to the expected $7.29, indicating challenges in cost management and operational efficiency. Notably, the company’s revenue fell slightly short of forecasts, reaching $109.6 billion versus the anticipated $111.5 billion. This dip can be attributed to changes in Optum Health member profile and increased care activity within UnitedHealthcare’s Medicare Advantage segment.
