UNIVERSAL HEALTH REALTY INCOME TRUST represents a reduce based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
UNIVERSAL HEALTH REALTY INCOME TRUST receives a Reduce rating from our analysis, with a composite score of 45.3/100 and 2 out of 5 stars, ranking #2747 out of 7,333 stocks. UHT's factor profile shows weakness across multiple dimensions, suggesting the stock may underperform going forward. Existing holders may want to consider trimming positions or tightening stop-losses.
UHT's quality score of 29/100 is below average, suggesting challenges with profitability or capital efficiency. The company reports a return on equity of 10.9% (sector avg: 9.0%), gross margins of 0.0% (sector avg: 77.7%), net margins of 17.4% (sector avg: 21.9%). Investors should examine whether management is actively addressing these weaknesses or if they reflect structural industry headwinds.
With a value score of 44/100, UHT appears somewhat expensive relative to its fundamentals. Key valuation metrics include a P/E ratio of 34.63x, an EV/EBITDA of 9.42x, a P/B ratio of 3.77x. Investors paying a premium here are likely betting on above-average growth or margin expansion to justify current prices.

Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 2.3% vs. a sector average of 10.7% and a return on assets of 3.0% (sector: 1.3%). While this can be positive for mature, cash-generative businesses returning capital to shareholders, it may also signal a lack of growth opportunities or management conservatism.
UHT demonstrates moderate momentum with a score of 52/100, suggesting a neutral price trend without strong directional conviction. Revenue growth stands at 2.3% year-over-year, while a beta of 0.23 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. Moderate momentum may indicate the stock is consolidating or transitioning between trends, warranting close monitoring of upcoming catalysts.
UHT shows good financial stability with a score of 78/100. Key stability metrics include a beta of 0.23 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 258.00x (sector avg: 0.5x). This suggests manageable leverage and moderate price volatility, making it appropriate for investors seeking a balance between growth potential and capital preservation.
UNIVERSAL HEALTH REALTY INCOME TRUST's short interest score of 31/100 reveals significant bearish positioning, suggesting institutional investors are actively betting against the stock. Specific risk factors include elevated leverage (D/E: 258.00x), small-cap liquidity risk. At $543M (small-cap), UHT carries meaningful risk and is best suited for investors with high risk tolerance who have thoroughly evaluated the bear thesis.
UNIVERSAL HEALTH REALTY INCOME TRUST offers an attractive dividend yield of 7.5%, placing it among the higher-yielding stocks in its peer group.

A yield this high can provide meaningful income, but investors should verify the payout is sustainable by examining the payout ratio, free cash flow coverage, and any history of dividend cuts.
UNIVERSAL HEALTH REALTY INCOME TRUST is a small-cap company in the Finance, Insurance, And Real Estate sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #2747 of 7,333 overall (63rd percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of 10.9% exceeding the 9.0% sector median and operating margins of 35.0% above the 18.1% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Finance, Insurance, And Real Estate peers.
