On Friday, a couple of insider activities were visible on the AMEH board, while overall, corporate insiders did not indicate any trend.

Per the recent SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) filings and TipRanks’ Insider Trading Activity tool, Allied Physicians of California, which owns more than 10% ownership in the company, purchased 250,000 shares valued at $9.25 million. Meanwhile, Apollo Medical’s director, Linda March, sold 250,000 shares for $9.25 million. 

Interestingly, management lifted its guidance for 2022 on the back of robust growth in organic membership and a favorable membership mix.

In the March quarter earnings release, Brandon Sim, Co-CEO of Apollo Medical, said, “We are seeing strong tailwinds for the business, as independent physicians across the country express interest in our unique model; in this quarter alone, we added two new physician groups in Northern California.” 

Conclusion 

Despite the recent sell-off, Apollo Medical’s strong business momentum and robust cash position show solid long-term prospects.
