Quest Diagnostics Inc&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DGX#NYSE">DGX</a>) reported on Tuesday that first-quarter 2025 sales of $2.65 billion, up 12.1% year over year, beat the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of $2.63 billion</a>.
The diagnostic test provider reported quarterly adjusted earnings of $2.21 per share, up 8.3%, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/04/n44917998/quest-diagnostics-reports-first-quarter-2025-financial-results-reaffirms-revenue-and-adjusted-dilu" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">beating the consensus of $2.15</a>.
&#8220;In the first quarter, we delivered strong revenue growth of approximately 12%, including nearly 2.5% in organic growth, as demand rebounded in March following weather impacts early in the quarter. Our growth was due to contributions from acquisitions and large enterprise accounts, demand for our advanced diagnostics portfolio, and expanded health plan access,&#8221; said Jim Davis, chairman, CEO and president. &#8220;We are reaffirming our revenue and adjusted EPS guidance for the full year 2025.&#8221;

Revenue per requisition increased by 0.3%, requisition volume increased 12.4% and organic requisition volume fell slightly by 0.9%.
Adjusted Operating income increased 16.3% to $406 million, while margin improved from 14.8% to 15.3%.
Outlook: Quest Diagnostics reaffirms 2025 guidance for <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43346695/quest-diagnostics-delivers-q4-earnings-beat-the-details" rel="noreferrer noopener">revenue of $10.70 billion—$10.85 billion</a> versus the consensus of $10.78 billion and adjusted EPS of $9.55-$9.80 compared to the consensus of $9.68.
In February, Quest agreed to acquire select assets of Fresenius Medical Care AG&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FMS#NYSE">FMS</a>) wholly owned Spectra Laboratories. Financial terms were not disclosed. The acquisition is expected to close in the second half of 2025. The transition of services is expected to be <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/n43910114/fresenius-medical-care-announces-divestment-of-select-laboratory-assets-to-quest-diagnostics" rel="noreferrer noopener">complete by early 2026</a>.
In addition, under a separate agreement, Quest will provide comprehensive laboratory services related to end-stage kidney disease and specialized water testing for patients and providers served by dialysis centers operated by Fresenius Medical Care and its wholly owned and joint-venture partners in the U.S.
In February, GRAIL Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GRAL#NASDAQ">GRAL</a>) and Quest Diagnostics announced the initial phase of a program to improve provider access to GRAIL&#8217;s Galleri multi-cancer early detection test.
Providers can now order the Galleri test directly from GRAIL through the Quest Diagnostics connectivity system that enables providers in the U.S. to order and receive reports of laboratory tests electronically through Quest&#8217;s Quanum laboratory portal and more than 900 electronic health record (EHR) systems. More than 500,000 providers used the Quest connectivity <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/02/n43657458/grail-and-quest-diagnostics-provide-grails-galleri-multi-cancer-early-detection-mced-test-through-" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">system last year</a>.
William Blair writes, &#8220;At first glance, these results are in line with what we would expect from Quest — consistent and with little drama.&#8221;
&#8220;We remain comfortable with the 2025 guide, as Quest continues to benefit from prudent utilization assumptions, mix benefits, flattish unit pricing, a more favorable regulatory environment and plenty of acquisition targets,&#8221; analyst Andrew Brackmann noted.
The William Blair analyst added, &#8220;Beyond the favorable industry backdrop, we believe Quest should be well insulated from macroeconomic noise, with the overwhelming majority of revenue coming from the U.S. and what we think will be minimal (likely offset) impact from tariffs.&#8221; The analyst reiterated the Outperform rating.
DGX Price Action: Quest Diagnostics stock is up 7.83% to $174.53 at publication on Tuesday.

On Wednesday, Donald Trump, the Republican candidate and former president, was elected to the highest office again, marking a return to an administration. His second term is likely to impact U.S. healthcare.
Trump has been unclear about his healthcare policy goals during his campaign. Healthcare <a target="_blank" href="https://www.kff.org/health-care-in-2024-elections-apvotecast-polling/?entry=kff-analysis-of-ap-votecast-abortion-ballot-initiatives" rel="noreferrer noopener">ranked</a> lower than issues like the economy and immigration in voter concerns.
A <a target="_blank" href="https://apnews.com/article/ap-votecast-elections-harris-trump-voters-d5cf4e3611f50ec4349d93ddc7f037cd" rel="noreferrer noopener">poll</a> from the Associated Press found that only 8% of voters viewed healthcare as their top issue, compared to 39% who chose the economy and 20% who picked immigration. Abortion was the leading issue for 11% of voters.

Kennedy Jr. Rattles Vaccine Stocks: &#8216;Shoot First Reaction&#8217;</a>
Despite his focus on &#8220;Make America Healthy Again,&#8221; millions of Americans may lose health insurance subsidies next year, depending on the political climate after the election and the Republicans&#8217; control of the Senate.
The subsidies, expanded under the 2021 American Rescue Plan, help many, particularly the middle class, afford health insurance through the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
These subsidies are set to expire at the end of 2025, and it remains uncertain whether they will be extended under the new administration.
Trump and other Republicans have opposed continuing the subsidies.
The NBC News <a target="_blank" href="https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/millions-risk-losing-health-insurance-trumps-victory-rcna179146" rel="noreferrer noopener">report</a>, citing some analysts, suggests that the chances of extension could be less than 5% if Republicans win control of the House and the Senate.
Even if Democrats control the House, extending these subsidies seems unlikely. Without an extension, nearly 4 million Americans could lose coverage by 2026 due to unaffordable premiums.
The 2021 changes led to a surge in ACA enrollment, with 15.5 million people benefiting from subsidies across 32 states. The report adds that if the subsidies aren&#8217;t renewed, up to 15.4 million Americans could lose health coverage by 2030.
Another significant issue is Trump&#8217;s stance on Medicare. As president, he supported Medicare Advantage, a private insurer-run program that could eventually replace traditional, government-run Medicare.
The NPR report <a target="_blank" href="https://www.npr.org/sections/shots-health-news/2024/11/07/nx-s1-5183092/trump-election-2024-medicare-advantage" rel="noreferrer noopener">highlights</a> that critics argue that expanding private insurers could increase costs for taxpayers and limit care, with some beneficiaries finding it difficult to switch back to traditional Medicare.
Robert Berenson, a former government official, warned that traditional Medicare could &#8220;wither on the vine.&#8221;
Medicare Advantage grew with the 2003 legislation introducing a drug benefit and expanded private insurers&#8217; role in the program. Although private plans were expected to lower costs, they have been more expensive.
The report also says that in 2023, Medicare Advantage plans cost taxpayers about 6% — or $27 billion — more than traditional Medicare, though some research suggests they offer better care.
The future of healthcare policy in the U.S. will depend on the political dynamics in Congress and Trump&#8217;s second term.
With Republicans pushing for major changes to the ACA and Medicare, experts warn of significant shifts in how Americans access and pay for healthcare in the coming years.

Fresenius Medical Care (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fms#NYSE">FMS</a>) is one of the largest integrated providers of products and services for individuals undergoing dialysis following chronic kidney failure. Through its network of more than 3,600 clinics across the world, the company offers dialysis services and products in more than 120 countries and employs over 109,000 staff in more than 50 countries.
Fresenius Medical reports through two segments &mdash; Care Delivery and Care Enablement. The Care Delivery segment consists of the company&#39;s Dialysis Services and the Care-Coordination (non-dialysis laboratory services), which accounted for 79.6% of net revenues in the first half of 2024. The Care Enablement segment comprises the company&#39;s Dialysis machines, dialyzers, dialysis solutions, hemodialysis concentrates, bloodline systems, water treatment systems, dialysis drugs and other medical products. The segment accounted for 20.4% of net revenues in the same period.
FMS&#39; quarterly results are likely to continue benefiting from improving treatment volumes as well as a stabilizing labor environment in the United States. Overall price improvements also supported growth in the Care Enablement segment. Meanwhile, FMS&#39; newly implemented operating model led to operational improvements. The company&#39;s divestment of its noncore and dilutive assets looks promising as they will help it focus on its core and growing categories as well as boost its cash resources.
The company&#39;s shares have risen 1.5% year to date compared with the industry&#39;s 8.4% growth. The stock was primarily driven by top-line growth in the past couple of quarters. The S&amp;P 500 Index was up 20% in the same time frame.

However, U.S. revenues continued to be hurt by FX impact. The bottom line was hurt by inflationary cost increases in energy, material and personnel.
<h2>Diversified Product Portfolio Boosts FMS&#39; Prospects</h2>
Fresenius Medical offers a wide array of Hemodialysis, Peritoneal dialysis and Acute dialysis products. To further boost the quality of life for its patients and increase their choice of available treatment options, Fresenius Medical Care remains focused on further expanding its home dialysis offerings. In 2022, the company provided around 15% of its dialysis treatments in the United States in a home setting, the same as last year. By 2025, the company has set a goal to perform 25% of all treatments in the U.S. at a patient&#39;s home.
<h2>FMS&#39; Strong Global Foothold Buoys Optimism</h2>
Fresenius Medical has a solid market hold in the regions of North America, Europe (EMEA), Asia Pacific and Latin America. To strengthen its market position, the company is resorting to various approaches, like enhancing its organic growth and making strategic and suitable acquisitions. The company also aims to align its business activities through public-private partnerships in the dialysis business for tapping into new markets in the coming quarters. In the recent past, the company entered the dialysis services market in Israel.
Fresenius Medical also expanded its dialysis services business in India by acquiring an 85% stake in Sandor Nephro Services, a dialysis group, offering dialysis treatment and other associated services, such as laboratory tests, to 308,471 patients in 3,624 dialysis clinics worldwide. In the second quarter of 2024, it witnessed strong contributions from the Asia Pacific, EMEA and Latin America, respectively.
<h2>Restructuring Initiatives Driving Savings</h2>
In October 2020, Fresenius Medical unveiled its 2025 strategy at its Capital Markets Day. This strategy is an appropriate one as it prioritizes patients&#39; needs, and the quality of care is in line with key drivers and developments for its industry. This positions Fresenius Medical&#39;s business well to deliver sustainable growth over the medium term and further. The FME25 transformation is anticipated to achieve a substantial amount of savings by 2025.
The company continues to progress with its FME25 transformation. In the second quarter, FMS generated 57 million euros in savings by implementing initiatives under its FME25 transformation program. The company targets savings in the range of 250-300 million euros by 2024-end and 650 million euros by 2025-end.
<h2>Factors Hurting FMS Stock</h2>
Fresenius Medical has numerous competitors in the field of health care services as well as the sale of dialysis products. Tough competition in the niche markets is likely to impede the company&#39;s sales opportunities and lose market share. However, per management, concerns that arise due to competition represent a low risk for the company in the short and mid-term. The company faces aggressive rivalry from HCA Holdings, DaVita HealthCare and Baxter International.
FMS faces a highly regulated environment in almost every country in which it operates. Furthermore, the company has to fulfill specific legal requirements everywhere, including the tough antitrust regulations. Violating healthcare or other regulations under public law can result in extensive legal repercussions.
