CVS Health shares fall after lower-than-expected revenue

...

CVS reported a loss of $419.0 million, or 37 cents per share, after net income of $3.3 billion, or $3.22 per share, the previous year. The loss includes a $2.2 billion goodwill impairment related to the long-term care business, which faced challenges including lower occupancy rates at skilled nursing facilities and the bankruptcies caused by the failing health of customers at these facilities. Adjusted EPS was $2.14, ahead of the $2.09 per share FactSet consensus. Revenue of $54.4 billion was up from $48.4 billion last year but missed the $54.6 billion FactSet expectation. Pharmacy services revenue of $34.9 million also missed FactSet's consensus for $46.4 billion, and the retail and long-term care segment revenue totaling $22.0 billion was below the FactSet expectation for $28.8 billion.

CVS now expects adjusted earnings this year to range from $6.75 to $6.90 per share. That's up from an initial forecast the company made in February for earnings of $6.68 to $6.88 per share, an outlook that fell well below Wall Street expectations.

Analysts now expect earnings of $6.79 per share, according to FactSet.

So, habe meine Position in CVS aufgestockt. Mir gefällt der Healthcare-Bereich, er ist azyklisch. Mir gefällt die Strategie von CVS, raus aus der Pharma-(Groß)händler-Ecke (mit Margendruck und dem Damokles-Schwert Amazon), hin zu einem integrierten Healthcare-Service-Provider. Die Akquisitionen (Aetna) scheinen zu klappen.

Die Dividende ist erstmal eingefroren, aber das wird schon noch wieder, wenn die Schulden weiter getilgt sind. Bis dahin habe ich Zeit.

Halbierung der Erträge wegen der hohen Verschuldung, das drückt den Kurs. Die langfristigen Verbindlichkeiten werden abgebaut, aber insgesamt wird die Verschuldung nicht wirklich abgebaut. Sieht nach einem zähen Kampf aus, aber noch macht das Unternehmen Gewinne. Erwarte weiteren Rücklauf auf Vor-Corona-Niveau.
