Biggest thing to watch: the P/E is higher than 94% of its own history, so the multiple has already done part of the work. ## What is the Ardent Health share price today? Ardent Health, Inc.'s share price was $11.71 at the close on 3 November 2026. That is 17.0% above its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $8 and $14, and at that close it sat 57% of the way up from that low. Over the past 13 weeks it has done better than the S&P 500, and it has stayed ahead for 5 weeks in a row. Over the last 1 year the share price moved −17% while the S&P 500 moved +21%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Ardent Health pay? Ardent Health, Inc. pays no dividend. In the last 12 reported quarters it declared no dividend per share, so there is no payout history to chart and no yield to show. Companies like this usually keep their earnings in the business, so the cash-flow sections show where that cash goes. ## Which stock lists is Ardent Health on? Ardent Health is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Ardent Health profitable? Ardent Health, Inc. earned $34.7 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, −63.8% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY25 profit was $230 M. Over 4 years profit has grown −1.5% a year on average. That is 2.1% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $95.7 M. For the full year, FY25 profit was $230 M (−23.2% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed −1.4% on a year earlier and the margin moved −4.9 percentage points. Sales did the work while the margin got thinner. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −52.3% and revenue +3.6%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. ## How much revenue does Ardent Health make, and is it growing? Ardent Health, Inc. reported $1.6 B of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, −1.4% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 4 years it has grown 6.7% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $6.3 B. The last four reported quarters add to $6.4 B. FY25 revenue was $6.3 B, +6.0% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +3.6% on average, against 6.7% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +3.3%, against +6.6% a year over the last 8 quarters (rolling over); profit over the last 12 months grew −50.6%, against +1.9% a year (rolling over). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Ardent Health keep? Ardent Health, Inc.'s operating margin was 3.4% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 4.9 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between 3.9% and 6.8%. The latest quarter is below every full year in that period. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −4.9 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −0.9 points. So the drop came mostly from costs below the gross margin, such as staff and overheads, measured against sales. ## Is Ardent Health's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 153% of Ardent Health, Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $471 M of operating cash against $230 M of profit. After $212 M of spending on assets, $259 M was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Ardent Health's cash go? Ardent Health, Inc. does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent $537 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 2.8% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $537 M over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is Ardent Health's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Ardent Health, Inc.'s P/E is 21.2×, near the high end of its own history: higher than 94% of past readings. Its usual P/E (the middle reading) is 9.8×, over 1 year of weekly prices. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved −39.2% while the price moved −19.6%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. In short: the multiple is high against its own past, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Ardent Health business getting better or worse? Ardent Health, Inc.'s business is giving mixed signals. There is no clear direction across the growth lines, with ROCE steady at 6.1%; each line tells part of the story. This is based on 12 quarters of 3 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: when the lines disagree, each line above matters more than any single label. This reading has some gaps: at least one line is short, or the return line is not the quarterly series, so treat it with a little more caution. ## How much does Ardent Health earn on its capital? Ardent Health, Inc. earned a ROE of 14% in FY25. That is up from a low of 12% in FY23. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 1.7 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 3.6% net margin and 1.20× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 3.6% net margin × 1.20× asset turnover × 3.14× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 13.6% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 6.2% − 4.5% = +1.7 percentage points. The 4.5% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Positive but thin: it creates value with little room for error. The 6.2% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at 8.0%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Ardent Health have too much debt? Ardent Health, Inc. has total debt of $2.3 B against shareholder equity of $1.7 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 1.30× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 1.77 in FY18 to 1.38 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Ardent Health shareholding pattern? 17.3% of Ardent Health, Inc.'s tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so a large group of traders is betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 7.6 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Ardent Health from balance-sheet trouble? For Ardent Health, Inc., the Z-score is 2.03. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is in the grey area between the two. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 2.03 is in the grey area, neither clearly safe nor clearly in trouble. ## How does Ardent Health rank in its industry? 35.7 out of 100, rank 28 of 30 in Medical Care Facilities, with 71% of the evidence available. Ardent Health, Inc. scores 35.7 out of 100 against the 30 companies it is compared with in Medical Care Facilities, ranking 28. The evidence is balanced: no factor stands out, so another reported quarter is needed before the picture is clearer. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 7 + 7.5 + 9.5 + 11.7 = 35.7. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Ardent Health compared with? Ardent Health ranks 28 of 30 Medical Care Facilities companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 35.7 out of 100. 1.

Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.
