Oppenheimer raises Humana price target to $475 on strong Medicare Advantage ratings.

Oppenheimer upgraded Humana's price target from $405 to $475, citing strong performance in Medicare Advantage plans where 95% of members are in four-star or higher rated plans. This upgrade implies a potential 22.7% upside from Humana's current stock price of $387.12. The high star ratings enhance Humana's eligibility for quality-related bonus payments, supporting the positive outlook. Oppenheimer maintains an 'Outperform' rating, expecting Humana's stock to outperform the broader market.

Following Oppenheimer's upgrade of Humana's price target, the stock is trading notably higher on Pluang, priced at USD 453.50 as of Oct 09, 2026 20:41 WIB, marking a 17.15% increase in one day. The market capitalization stands at $46.49 billion, with investors typically holding the stock for 53 days. Humana also offers a dividend yield of 0.91%, highlighting its appeal to income-focused investors.
