16 July 2026 | 3 months ago
UnitedHealth Group, the largest US health insurer, reported its second-quarter 2026 results on Thursday, July 16: revenue of $112.0 billion, earnings from operations of $8.0 billion, and earnings of $6.04 per share ($6.38 adjusted), beating analyst estimates.
The company raised its full-year 2026 adjusted earnings guidance to a range of $19.50 to $20.00 per share, saying better management of medical costs and the use of AI to streamline operations helped drive the improvement. The stock had been under pressure previously on worries about rising medical costs.
