Ensign Group runs nursing homes and rehab centers across 13 states, offering post-acute care, therapy, and senior living—think of it as a chain of recovery hotels for elderly patients.
Revenue comes from Skilled Services (nursing and therapy) and Real Estate leasing, with annual revenue of USD 5.06B and net margin around 6.8%—a low-margin, high-volume business with recurring government and insurance payments.
Local licenses and real estate create barriers, but large chains like Genesis Healthcare and Sabra Health Care REIT compete aggressively, and Medicare reimbursement cuts are eroding pricing power.
