1027 GMT - Fresenius Medical Care's U.S. volume growth is unlikely to reassure investors on its long-term growth outlook, UBS analysts say in a note. The German dialysis company's earnings beat in 4Q and solid outlook builds on a track record of delivery under this management, but is somewhat offset by subdued U.S. volume growth with its relatively modest 2025 forecast, the analysts say. For 2025, Fresenius Medical Care is guiding for revenue growth of a low-single-digit percentage and operating income growth at a high teens to high twenties percentage rate, both at constant currencies and excluding special items. Shares rise 0.65% to 44.90 euros. (helena.smolak@wsj.com)
