Revenue Growth

A company’s long-term sales performance is one signal of its overall quality. Any business can put up a good quarter or two, but many enduring ones grow for years. Luckily, Option Care Health’s sales grew at a solid 14.1% compounded annual growth rate over the last five years. Its growth beat the average healthcare company and shows its offerings resonate with customers.

We at StockStory place the most emphasis on long-term growth, but within healthcare, a half-decade historical view may miss recent innovations or disruptive industry trends. Option Care Health’s annualized revenue growth of 14% over the last two years aligns with its five-year trend, suggesting its demand was predictably strong.

This quarter, Option Care Health reported year-on-year revenue growth of 15.4%, and its $1.42 billion of revenue exceeded Wall Street’s estimates by 4.6%.

Looking ahead, sell-side analysts expect revenue to grow 7.6% over the next 12 months, a deceleration versus the last two years. Still, this projection is above the sector average and indicates the market sees some success for its newer products and services.

Operating Margin

Option Care Health was profitable over the last five years but held back by its large cost base. Its average operating margin of 6.2% was weak for a healthcare business.

On the plus side, Option Care Health’s operating margin rose by 1.3 percentage points over the last five years, as its sales growth gave it operating leverage.

In Q2, Option Care Health generated an operating margin profit margin of 5.8%, in line with the same quarter last year. This indicates the company’s overall cost structure has been relatively stable.

Earnings Per Share

We track the long-term change in earnings per share (EPS) for the same reason as long-term revenue growth. Compared to revenue, however, EPS highlights whether a company’s growth is profitable.

Option Care Health’s full-year EPS flipped from negative to positive over the last five years. This is encouraging and shows it’s at a critical moment in its life.

In Q2, Option Care Health reported EPS at $0.41, up from $0.37 in the same quarter last year. This print beat analysts’ estimates by 3.3%. Over the next 12 months, Wall Street expects Option Care Health’s full-year EPS of $1.67 to grow 6.9%.
