8-K Item 2.02: Earnings release
Actionable Insight • Neutral

The earnings beat was modest and no formal guidance was provided. Watch for management's tone on the conference call regarding organic growth sustainability and acquisition pipeline. The home health segment's continued decline is a risk to monitor.
