Aristotle Small Cap Equity Strategy made the following comment about ModivCare Inc. (NASDAQ:MODV) in its second quarter 2023 investor letter:

“ModivCare Inc. (NASDAQ:MODV), a Colorado-based health care services company that provides non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT), homecare services, and remote monitoring to Medicaid and Medicare populations declined during the period. We believe the catalyst for the pullback appears to be a function of concerns around potential reimbursement rate cuts. Nevertheless, we continue to maintain a position, as we believe that any potential cuts are overly discounted in the share price, and that the fundamental outlook for the business remains attractive.”
