ModivCare Inc (MODV)·Q2 2025 Earnings Summary
Executive Summary
- Q2 2025 results were not reported; ModivCare filed an NT 10‑Q on August 12 citing additional time needed for goodwill impairment testing and an Audit Committee investigation, and disclosed an expected goodwill impairment of not less than $250 million; management also indicated revenue, EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA would be “significantly lower” versus prior year .
- On August 20–22, ModivCare entered Chapter 11 with a comprehensive restructuring supported by >90% of first‑lien lenders and >70% of second‑lien noteholders; committed $100 million DIP financing, and announced an anticipated ~$1.1 billion funded debt reduction; Nasdaq commenced delisting proceedings with trading suspended August 28 .
- Prior quarter trends: Q1 2025 service revenue fell 4.9% YoY to $650.7m with GAAP loss per share of $(3.52) and adjusted EBITDA of $32.6m; Q4 2024 service revenue was $702.8m, GAAP loss per share $(1.64), adjusted EBITDA $40.4m .
- Operational catalysts: fee‑for‑service conversions (
25% of revenue), contract repricing, and G&A cost‑out initiatives ($25m target) were emphasized as drivers to normalize cash flow and margins; however, the restructuring and delisting dynamics dominate near‑term equity risk/reward .
What Went Well and What Went Wrong
What Went Well
- “Self‑service call‑to‑trip ratio reached 36.1%, up from 35% in Q4 and 31% a year ago,” supporting lower unit costs and improved on‑time performance (95.2%); missed trips fell 20% QoQ, aided by AI tools and automated intake/adjudication .
- Two new NEMT Medicaid MCO contracts secured (Southwest and Pacific) with ~$52m annual contract value and expected ~$38m in‑year revenue contribution; four PCS agreements signed (2 national, 2 regional) .
- Fee‑for‑service migrations (~25% of revenue) and April collection of a ~$30m 2024 receivable improved cash conversion predictability; objective is settlement <90 days .
What Went Wrong
- Q2 2025 financials delayed (NT 10‑Q) due to goodwill impairment testing and Audit Committee investigation; management expects “significantly lower” revenue/EBITDA/adjusted EBITDA and an impairment ≥$250m .
- NEMT contract attrition and MA membership churn continued weighing on Q1 revenue (-6.3% YoY in NEMT) and Monitoring growth; Q1 GAAP net loss widened to $50.4m driven by higher interest expense .
- Chapter 11 filing and Nasdaq delisting notice materially elevate equity risk; while operations are expected to continue uninterrupted, trading moved off Nasdaq with anticipated OTC Pink quotation .
Financial Results
Q2 2025 not filed; comparison shown versus prior two quarters.

Earnings Call Themes & Trends
Management Commentary
- “We are aligning our updates to 5 enterprise objectives: grow and retain core customers; digitize and automate; optimize for simplicity and scale; increase capital efficiency and advance deleveraging; deliver client‑centric supportive care” .
- “In NEMT, we secured 2 new Medicaid managed care contracts… ~$52 million ACV with ~$38 million in‑year revenue contribution” .
- “Self‑service call‑to‑trip ratio reached 36.1%… automated intake and adjudication contributed to 1.2% YoY reduction in unit costs… on‑time performance rose to 95.2%” .
- “Company‑wide G&A reduction initiative targeting approximately $25 million in annualized savings” .
- “We collected a large MCO contract receivable from 2024 of approximately $30 million… reflecting improved payer alignment” .
- “We are not issuing formal guidance in 2025… focus on executing measurable initiatives” .
- Restructuring: “Supermajority support… $100 million DIP… reduce total funded debt by approximately $1.1 billion… operations continue uninterrupted” .
Q&A Highlights
- Cash flow cadence: large debt payments in Q2 and Q4 make quarterly CFO lumpy; focus on annual cash generation with working capital improvements; potential positive quarters outside payment months not specified .
- Strategic alternatives: Deleveraging is top priority; sale processes guided by “patience and urgency” to maximize value .
- G&A savings specifics: Primarily labor within corporate/shared services due to efficiency gains; ~$25m target .
- NEMT metrics: Revenue per trip mix‑driven; expected to normalize; contract loss due to payer consolidation noted .
Estimates Context
- S&P Global consensus estimates for Q2 2025 were unavailable due to data mapping issues; additionally, management did not issue formal guidance for 2025 and filed an NT 10‑Q indicating significantly lower revenue/EBITDA versus prior year and an expected goodwill impairment of at least $250m .
- Given the Chapter 11 and delisting developments, near‑term estimate visibility is limited and likely to be revised materially as restructuring progresses .
Key Takeaways for Investors
- Equity risk high: Chapter 11 RSA and Nasdaq delisting materially impair equity; trading moved off Nasdaq; capital structure reset could wipe out or dilute current shareholders materially .
- Operations stable: Management expects uninterrupted operations in NEMT/PCS/Monitoring through restructuring; watch DIP milestones and liquidity disclosures .
- Cash conversion improving: Fee‑for‑service migrations (~25% revenue), repricing, and collections (e.g., $30m in April) target <90‑day settlement, but Q2 figures are delayed and impairment pressure is significant .
- Cost discipline: G&A cost‑out raised to ~$25m; automation continues to reduce unit costs and improve service KPIs (on‑time, complaints, missed trips) .
- Contract dynamics: New MCO wins and state renewals offset attrition; monitor 2025 state RFPs and pricing resets to stabilize NEMT margins .
- Near‑term focus: Track restructuring milestones (plan confirmation within ~90 days of petition, effective date within ~110 days), DIP usage, and any rights offering or take‑back facilities .
- Trading stance: Near‑term equity trades on restructuring outcomes rather than fundamental EPS; bond/DIP investors drive the capital stack—equity holders should consider recovery scenarios and legal developments .
