Express Scripts

Express Scripts is among the world’s largest Health Care Services sector businesses in the world.  Express Scripts’s employees generate $503.4M in profits on $17.820B of revenue.  Global output in the Health Care Services business will likely rise substantially over the next 10 years.  Long-term economic growth may lift all boats, but Express Scripts is determined to remain a market leader.  Sectoral leadership in the Health Care Services segment takes dedication and consistency, but management seeks out-sized growth.

Express Scripts’s ticker symbol ESRX has recently been trading near $50.85 a share.  The Express Scripts corporate headquarters in St Louis, MO predicts Health Care Services profits will satisfy shareholders in search of risk-appropriate returns.

The significance of market volume is sometimes ignored, but with a total market capitalization of $13.853B ensures sufficient liquidity.  With a beta of 0.72, the company is less volatile than the market as a whole.  When the average equity moves lower, Express Scripts moves less aggressively.
