Why SelectQuote Stock Got Slammed Today
The company unveiled its latest set of quarterly earnings. It showed robust growth, but a Department of Justice complaint is dogging its stock. 10 stocks we like better than SelectQuote › Veteran health insurance broker SelectQuote (NYSE: SLQT) wasn't quite looking like the wave of the future on Monday. The company's shares took a 12% hit on the day, following management's release of the latest set of quarterly figures. That was in rather sharp contrast to the overall stock market, where the benchmark S&P 500 index rose by a relatively steep 3.3%. For its fiscal third quarter of 2025, SelectQuote reaped just over $408 million in total revenue, up from the more than $376 million it earned in the same period of fiscal 2024. Generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) net income came in at over $26 million ($0.03 per share), more than triple the under-$8.6 million profit of the year-ago period. Although those increases were nothing to sneeze at, the company missed on the bottom line, if only slightly. On average, analysts tracking SelectQuote stock were modeling $0.04 per share net income. The company did beat on revenue, however, as the average pundit estimate was a bit over $402 million. In its earnings release, SelectQuote quoted CEO Tim Danker as saying that "SelectQuote's agent-led model paired with our technology-enabled information advantage made our platform more valuable than ever to participants in the healthcare ecosystem." However, investors might have been more concerned with what SelectQuote and its management team didn't say. In the earnings release, it didn't further address allegations brought by the government's Department of Justice (DoJ) in a complaint that the company -- along with peer health insurance brokers -- accepted illegal "kickback" payments by top insurers. That, despite the fact that SelectQuote issued a press release Friday saying that it "strongly disagrees" with the allegations. It also vowed to defend itself against the DoJ's accusations, predicting a positive outcome for it in the case.

SelectQuote (SLQT) Faces Investor Scrutiny After DOJ Alleges False Claims Act Violations
SAN FRANCISCO, May 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- On May 1, 2025, investors in SelectQuote (NYSE: SLQT) saw the price of their shares tumble over 19% after the U.S. Department of Justice announced it had filed a lawsuit against the company, other insurance brokers, and three of the nation's largest health insurance companies, claiming violations of the False Claims Act. Hagens Berman urges SelectQuote investors who suffered substantial losses to submit your losses now. The firm also encourages persons with knowledge who may be able to assist in the investigation to contact its attorneys. SelectQuote (SLQT) Investigation: The investigation is focused on the propriety of SelectQuote's disclosures concerning its sales and other business practices, particularly with respect to its Senior business which offers Medicare Advantage ('MA') plans written by health insurance companies such as Aetna, Anthem, and Humana ('insurers'). In the past, SelectQuote has claimed '[o]ur agents are trained to offer unbiased advice in order to be more aligned to the specific needs of each customer' and Senior 'provides unbiased comparison shopping for Medicare Advantage ('MA') and Medicare Supplement ('MS') insurance plans[.]' SelectQuote's claims came into question on May 1, 2025, when the DOJ filed a complaint alleging that from 2016 through at least 2021 the insurers: Paid hundreds of millions of dollars to SelectQuote and other brokers in exchange for enrollments into the insurers' Medicare Advantage plans; Rather than acting as unbiased stewards, SelectQuote and other brokers directed Medicare beneficiaries to the plans offered by insurers that paid brokers the most in kickbacks, regardless of the suitability of the MA plans for the beneficiaries; SelectQuote and other brokers incentivized their employees and agents to sell plans based on the insurers' kickbacks, set up teams of insurance agents who could sell only those plans, and at times refused to sell MA plans of insurers who did not pay sufficient kickbacks; and SelectQuote and other brokers conspired to discriminate against MA beneficiaries with disabilities. This news sent SelectQuote shares spiraling 19% lower on May 1, 2025. 'We're concerned about SelectQuote's alleged steering practices and the extent to which the practices, if true, may have inflated the company's financial results,' said Reed Kathrein, the Hagens Berman partner leading the investigation.
