AI Insight: DVA Financial Trends

DaVita's revenue grew 7% year-over-year to $3,416M in Q1 2026, but equity turned deeply negative at -$755M as debt climbed to $10,626M.

Revenue expanded steadily from $3,187M in Q2 2024 to $3,416M in Q1 2026, a ~7% rise over seven quarters.

Equity deteriorated sharply from $633M in Q2 2024 to -$755M in Q1 2026, signaling persistent balance-sheet erosion.

Total debt rose from $8,990M in Q2 2024 to $10,626M in Q1 2026, a $1,636M increase in under two years.

Operating cash flow remains volatile: $842M in Q3 2025 but collapsed to $180M in Q1 2025 and $321M in Q1 2026.

Negative and deepening equity (-$755M in Q1 2026) combined with rising debt raises structural leverage risk.

Net income fell to $150M in Q3 2025, the lowest in the period — monitor whether Q4 2025 rebound is sustained.

Operating income dipped to $482M in Q1 2026 from $561M in Q4 2025 — first sequential decline in two quarters.

AI Insight: DVA Ratio Trends

DaVita's margins are tracking below peak Q4 2024 levels, with Q1 2026 operating margin of 14.1% and ROIC of 19.5% both near recent lows.

Operating margin peaked at 17.2% in Q4 2024 but has since declined to 14.1% in Q1 2026, a 3.1pp contraction.

ROIC followed a similar arc: rising to 23.6% in Q4 2024, then falling to 19.5% in Q1 2026, a 4.1pp drop.

Net profit margin compressed from 7.9% in Q4 2024 to 5.8% in Q1 2026, with Q3 2025 touching a low of 4.4%.

Q1 seasonality appears persistent: Q1 2025 and Q1 2026 both show the weakest operating margins in their respective years.

ROIC dropped to 19.5% in Q1 2026 — the lowest reading since Q1 2025's 18.5% — reversing Q4 2024's 23.6% peak.

D/E data is largely absent after Q3 2024's elevated 24.71x reading; leverage trajectory remains unclear and warrants monitoring.

Whether Q2 2025's partial margin recovery to 15.9% operating margin repeats in Q2 2026 will signal if seasonal troughs are stabilizing.
