Optima Health beats profit forecasts; broker raises target price with 22% upside potential.

Optima Health PLC reported adjusted earnings of £20.1 million for the year to March, exceeding broker Cavendish's forecasts by about 12%. The company benefited from a £4.7 million settlement but also showed improved underlying profitability, with second-half margins rising despite increased costs. Following its £100 million acquisition of PAM Healthcare, Optima is on track to meet its medium-term goals of £200 million revenue and £40 million adjusted earnings. Cavendish raised its price target to 302p, implying a 22% upside from the current share price, and introduced 2029 forecasts projecting continued growth.
