Chemed Corporation reported first-quarter revenue of $657.5 million, up 1.6% year-on-year and beating analyst estimates by 1.2%. Non-GAAP earnings per share of $5.65 exceeded consensus by 6.6%. The healthcare services company's VITAS hospice business drove growth through accelerated hospital and non-hospital admissions whilst maintaining lower labour costs. Roto-Rooter saw its first core residential revenue growth since late 2022, though it faced increased marketing expenses to offset declining organic search leads. Looking ahead, management plans to expand VITAS staffing by 60 full-time employees monthly to support higher patient census. Roto-Rooter will continue elevated marketing spend to maintain lead generation whilst working to restore organic search visibility. The company is monitoring regulatory developments in key hospice markets including California and Florida.
