The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is re-soliciting bids for the Medicare call center contract, despite the current contractor, Maximus, having good ratings and being less than two years into a nine-year deal. This move appears to be an effort by the Biden Administration to introduce a "labor harmony requirement" and unionize over 10,000 workers. The new contract is expected to be awarded by January 16, 2025.

MAXIMUS INC (NYSE:MMS) has been identified through the "Caviar Cruise" stock screen as a quality investment candidate, demonstrating strong financial health, impressive returns on invested capital (71.03%), and sound cash flow conversion. The company exhibits a 5-year EBIT CAGR of 14.64% and a Debt-to-Free Cash Flow ratio of 3.64, alongside an attractive valuation and a consistent dividend history. While its reliance on government contracts introduces some risk, its operational excellence and profitability metrics suggest it aligns with the criteria for a durable, long-term portfolio.

Maximus President Bruce Caswell recently purchased US$249k worth of company stock at US$78.45 per share, indicating a positive sign although the percentage is small. This insider buying contrasts with larger insider selling activity over the past year, where General Manager Ilene Baylinson sold US$988k worth of shares below the current price. While recent purchases suggest confidence, the overall insider transaction trend for Maximus shows more selling than buying over the last year.

Maximus President Bruce Caswell recently purchased US$249k worth of company stock at US$78.45 per share, signaling a positive outlook. While this individual purchase was not substantial in percentage terms, it indicates confidence. However, over the past year, insider selling at Maximus has outweighed buying, with a General Manager selling US$988k worth of shares at a lower price point, which could be a discouraging sign.

Maximus (MMS) reported a significant jump in first-quarter 2026 net income, which more than doubled to US$93.94 million, alongside a narrowed full-year revenue guidance. The company also completed a multi-year share repurchase program, retiring 15.65% of its stock. This financial improvement and strategic capital return program are expected to influence Maximus's investment narrative and future outlook positively, especially concerning its focus on government outsourcing contracts.

Maximus (MMS) reported a significant earnings jump in Q1 2026, with net income more than doubling, despite a slight decline in sales. The company also completed a multi-year share repurchase program, buying back 15.65% of its stock, which could amplify future earnings. This performance, coupled with a forecast of $6.1 billion revenue and $486.5 million earnings by 2028, suggests a potential 47% upside to its current price, making the stock's investment narrative more compelling.
