Investment Highlights Why It Matters Which of these 2 stories sounds closer for this stock?

1. Generates cash flow

The stock generated 4% or more of the share price (called cash flow yield), and shows moderate 10-15% or more growth.

2. Riding a trend

Think Tesla during the pandemic of 2020 when EVs were riding a cultural high, or Nvidia in the current AI boom, or even Figma. These companies don’t have enough yield, or, enough growth, or both - however - they are riding a trend. They have momentum. These can be more volatile - they don’t have the floor of strong cash flow

The requested time period for the stock movement (8/31/2025 to today, December 17, 2025) is in the future. As such, I cannot provide an analysis of a past stock movement that has not yet occurred. However, I can provide information about Universal Health Realty Income Trust (UHT) up to the most recent available date in the search results, which includes information from late 2024 and through Q3 2025. Here are some recent key points related to Universal Health Realty Income Trust (UHT), as of the most recent available information:

1. Universal Health Realty Income Trust (UHT) reported third-quarter 2025 net income of $4.0 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, which was unchanged from the same quarter in 2024. Funds from operations (FFO) for Q3 2025 increased to $12.2 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, up from $11.3 million, or $0.82 per share, in the prior year period. This increase in FFO was attributed to a one-time gain from a settlement and release agreement related to a medical office building, partially offset by a decrease in aggregate property income and nonrecurring depreciation expense.

2. For the fourth quarter of 2024, UHT's net income was $4.7 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, a significant increase from $3.6 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, in Q4 2023. This improvement was driven by higher income from various properties, although partially offset by increased interest expenses.
