Delivery against raised 2026 outlook • 2026-12-31
Base target: $21 / p=1% prob
Biggest risk
Revenue grew faster than gross profit in Q2, implying gross-margin pressure. The cash-conversion target depends partly on MSSP settlement timing, and $19.4 million of Q2 non-cash stock compensation exceeded $9.0 million of net income [#SEC-8K-2026-08-06].
Invalidation
Break below $14 or thesis failure.
What would change my mind?
Provider and attributed-life growth, higher platform contribution, and raised 2026 expectations support a constructive operating view [#SEC-8K-2026-08-06]. The deterministic score has a positive directional prior, but its catalyst-density score is only 0.5.

Commentary
The company-confirmed Q2 growth and raised outlook support a positive operating tone. The September 25 anchor is $19.71, but the packet does not establish the immediate post-release price reaction or whether an initial move held. Confirmed analyst revisions, social coverage, options skew, short interest, and employee sentiment are unavailable; zero-valued sentiment fields represent missing data, not neutral readings. The earnings document labeled as a September investor release is third-party valuation commentary, not a company release.

- EVENT2026-12-31Delivery against raised 2026 outlookPrivia reported Q2 revenue of $632.6 million, up 21.4% year over year, and adjusted EBITDA of $37.4 million, up 29.1%. It raised its full-year outlook, including attributed lives to 1.625–1.650 million, while targeting the high end of its prior $2.35–$2.45 billion revenue range. Year-end delivery is the central thesis test; December 31 is a fiscal-year checkpoint, not an announced earnings date [#SEC-8K-2026-08-06].Prob 70.00% • Move 10.00% • Priced-in 50.00%
- EVENT2026-12-31Free-cash-flow conversion testManagement expects approximately 70–80% of 2026 adjusted EBITDA to convert to free cash flow, subject to the timing of MSSP cash settlement. Cash realization below that expectation would weaken the quality-of-earnings case [#SEC-8K-2026-08-06].Prob 60.00% • Move 7.00% • Priced-in 35.00%

Peers
| Symbol | Summary |
|---|---|
| ACHC | Similar market capitalization and healthcare-services classification, but its behavioral-health facilities make it a loose operating comparison. |
| CLOV | Value-based-care exposure offers a thematic comparison, but Clover's insurer model is not a direct margin or valuation comparable to Privia's physician-enablement platform. |
