Healius Needs Longer in Recovery Room -- Market Talk

Dow Jones
Aug 25, 2025

0101 GMT - Pathology services provider Healius is showing signs of life after a rough patch, but Morgans isn't ready to turn bullish on its stock. Healius reported steady progress on its strategy to lift operating margins into the high-single-digit percentage range by end-FY 2027 through raising revenue and reducing costs. But analyst Derek Jellinek concludes that "sustainable earnings growth is still questionable, execution risk is high, and there are plenty of uncertainties, including fair work commission proposals and recent Medicare changes to vitamin B12 and urine testing." Morgans retains a hold call on Healius's stock, and cuts its price target by 9.4% to A$0.87/share. Healius is unchanged at A$0.83. (david.winning@wsj.com; @dwinningWSJ)
