Chronic disease care firm DaVita (DVA) is under the spotlight, with discussions revolving around its valuation following its exit from the FTSE All-World Index and ensuing short-term market volatility. Despite mixed performance in comparison to the S&P 500 and Nasdaq, DaVita has rewarded investors with 60% returns in the past three years. However, stock dips have led to concerns. The company expects strong growth in the long term yet faces challenges like a ransomware attack impacting 2.7 million people and Berkshire Hathaway selling a chunk of DVA shares, causing drops in stock price. Amid these developments, DaVita posted better-than-expected sales in recent quarters, demonstrating resilience in navigating challenges. Also of note is the company's aggressive buyback strategy and its commitment to corporate citizenship outlined in its Community Care Report. Also released were offerings of senior notes worth $750 million and $1 billion. DaVita’s advancements in healthcare business models leveraging Artificial Intelligence and its developments towards Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) goals warrant attention. However, market fluctuations led to DaVita’s stock hitting a 52-week low of $131.09, prompting various reactions from investors.
