JPMorgan reinstates Primary Health Properties stock with Neutral rating

Investing.com - JPMorgan has reinstated coverage on Primary Health Properties Plc. (LON:PHP) with a Neutral rating and a price target of GBP1.00.

The reinstatement follows the combination of Primary Health Properties and Assura, which JPMorgan notes creates a UK healthcare-focused real estate portfolio worth approximately £6 billion.

JPMorgan views the combination as logical, offering a more liquid investment opportunity in a real estate sub-sector supported by long-term structural trends, including aging populations and increasing prevalence of chronic disease.

The firm highlights that over 20% of NHS primary care buildings predate the NHS’s 1948 foundation, creating modernization needs with political support.

JPMorgan also notes the recent 10-year NHS plan from July 2025 indicates a shift in spending away from hospital care, with goals to establish neighborhood health centers in every community.
