- Friday, May 10, 2:00 PM Chemed (CHE -5.3%) takes a hit from a negative Citron Research report calling it 'Game Over' for the shares. Citron says that the recent False Claims suit filed against the company's VITAS business units is just the tip of the spear. Not only has the analyst community overlooked a second, equally damaging suit that was filed, but the government's takeover of the investigation means a potential trebling of damages against the company. Comment! [Healthcare, On the Move]
- Friday, May 3, 9:27 AM Chemed (CHE) -16.2% premarket after the U.S. sues the hospice chain and several of its subsidiaries, alleging they submitted false Medicare billings for services that misspent "tens of millions of taxpayer dollars." In one instance cited by the government, CHE subsidiary Vitas Hospice billed a patient for care he didn't need and at a time when he was actually playing bingo. Comment! [Healthcare, On the Move]

- Friday, April 20, 2012, 12:55 PM Chemed (CHE -4.9%) dips after posting a mixed Q1, beating on revenue but coming up short on its EPS. Net earnings actually rose 13% on better growth in its hospice-care segment, but margins were pressured by sales declines in its Roto-Rooter business. The company also lowered the top end of its EPS estimate by a nickel, now expecting to earn between $5.35 - $5.50 per share. Comment! [On the Move, Earnings]
- Wednesday, February 15, 2012, 10:58 AM Chemed (CHE +3.9%) moves higher despite missing estimates on its Q4 report yesterday.

The company also raises FY12 guidance, now expecting to earn $5.35 - $5.55 per share, above Street expectations of $5.27. 1 Comment [On the Move]

- Thursday, January 5, 2012, 12:31 PM A Bloomberg report about the Justice Department joining a lawsuit against another hospice operator may be contributing to weakness in Chemed (CHE -1.9%) shares. DOJ and the Department of Health and Human Services are already investigating Chemed’s Vitas Healthcare, for “an extensive scheme” to defraud the government of “hundreds of millions of dollars." Comment! [Healthcare, On the Move]
- Wednesday, November 16, 2011, 9:51 AM Shares of Chemed (CHE -7.9%) trade lower after a whistleblower accuses the firm of an extensive Medicare HMO scheme aimed at defrauding the government. The allegations were unveiled in a lawsuit filed in a federal case against the company. Comment! [Healthcare, On the Move]
- Monday, November 7, 2011, 2:28 PM Chemed (CHE +2.4%) ticks higher after its board approves an additional $100M to the current buyback program it initiated in February, as the operator of Vitas Healthcare and Roto-Rooter looks to boost the value of its stock. Comment! [On the Move]

valueinvestor20: Don't think there will be material compliance cost. Some pullback in continuous care business - maybe a 5% hit to earnings. -
valueinvestor20: I would guess settlement is ultimately <$100mm which should not be an issue - company has unlevered balance sheet and is cash generative.
