Simplify's Take
What believers are saying
- Gentiva serves over 12,000 employees across 500+ locations, strengthening market dominance.
- The U.S. hospice market is projected to reach USD 45.3 billion by 2033.
- Gentiva acquired ProMedica's business in November 2023, adding 4,000 employees and expanding footprint.
What critics are saying
- CD&R ownership forces aggressive cost-cutting, causing 28% staff turnover in 12 states versus 14% for non-PE rivals.
- Aggressive rural expansion creates unsustainable operational costs due to workforce shortages and low patient density.
- Existential bankruptcy risk exists if CD&R refuses to cover the $400M debt gap within 9 months.
