Recent analyst upgrades signal a positive outlook for Tenet Healthcare (THC). UBS raised its price target to $288 and maintained a Buy rating, while Deutsche Bank increased its target to $260, also with a Buy rating. RBC also increased its price target to $277 and maintained an Outperform rating. These adjustments reflect growing confidence in the company's performance. THC's Q4 results further support this positive sentiment. The company exceeded revenue expectations, with ambulatory surgical centers and expense management driving outperformance. Management cited ambulatory growth and expense control as key drivers. The company's 2025 net operating revenues reached $21.3 billion, with consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $4.57 billion, a 14% increase from the prior year. The strong performance in both the ambulatory and hospital segments, along with positive 2026 guidance, suggests continued momentum.
