Healthcare Services reports Q3 adjusted EPS 17c, consensus 18c

Reports Q3 adjusted revenue $424M, consensus $423.64M. Ted Wahl, CEO, stated, “We entered the second half of the year with three clear priorities and made substantial progress on all three during the quarter. The first was continuing to manage adjusted costs of services at 86%, which we did. The second was collecting what we bill, building on the strong momentum that we gained in May and June. In Q3 we delivered our strongest cash collections of the year, collecting over 98% of what we billed, with the modest shortfall primarily related to the timing of new business adds during the quarter. The third priority was executing on our organic growth strategy. Adjusted revenue for the quarter was up sequentially, our sales pipeline is growing, and our recruiting and management development efforts are ramping up as we ready ourselves for growth. We look forward to ending the year on a strong note and expect these positive operating, cash collection, and new business trends to continue into 2024.”
