Option Care Health is a leading national provider of home and alternate-site infusion therapy services. The company benefits from the growing healthcare trend toward shifting high-cost medical treatments from hospitals into lower-cost home settings. Its main strengths include a broad geographic presence and strong relationships with major health payors, which support consistent volume growth. However, the company faces risks from payor reimbursement pressure, competition from vertically integrated health insurers, and potential supply chain disruptions. Option Care Health is generally suited for growth-oriented investors interested in the healthcare services sector, provided they can tolerate exposure to regulatory and reimbursement-related volatility.

Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

★★★★★
OPCH receives a 3-star rating, supported by solid analyst coverage. The rating is constrained by soft unit economics, and weak price momentum.

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
OPCH has moderate overall fundamentals (3 stars), with moderate financial health, moderate growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, solid revenue growth (+13.0%) is partially offset by slightly negative earnings growth (-2.0%), soft cash generation (FCF margin 3.8%), soft profitability (net margin 3.7%).

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
OPCH's financial health is supported by solid cash strength, including free-cash-flow generation (3.8% of revenue). Profitability is soft (2 stars), which helps explain the 3-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
Revenue growth is OPCH's strongest growth driver at +13.0% FY2025 versus FY2024 (solid, 4 stars). By comparison, while earnings growth (-2.0%, slightly negative) and free-cash-flow growth (-24.5%, negative) hold the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 108.8% and approximately 98.6% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 1.28% provides only moderate management-shareholder alignment.

Vanguard Portfolio Management, LLC 5.52%
Fuller & Thaler Asset Management Inc 4.97%
Vanguard Capital Management, LLC 4.72%

Unit Economics (Per $1K Revenue)

★★★★★
OPCH generates approximately $181 of gross profit, $60 of operating income, and $38 of free cash flow for every $1,000 of revenue. Based on FY2025 results. Soft margins explain the 2-star rating, with moderate cash conversion and moderate capital efficiency.

Economic Dimensions

★★★★★
Effective Tax Rate: 26.62%

Quantitative Style Profile

★★★★★
OPCH has a liquid, relatively low-volatility profile. Weak momentum is the primary drawback.
