About Maximus

Maximus helps governments run health and social programs for people in need. Its services make it easier for citizens to access benefits, appeal decisions, or get support. For example, Maximus manages call centers that help families enroll in Medicaid or resolve questions about government aid.

What Makes Maximus Stand Out

Maximus focuses on translating complex government policies into practical services for citizens. Its long-term government relationships and digital platforms support large-scale program delivery. The company’s operational strength lies in managing high-volume, regulated processes for public sector clients.

Five Things You Need to Know

  • Revenue was $1.35 billion in Q1 2026, down 4.1% from Q1 2025.
  • Net income was $94 million in Q1 2026, up 128.0% year-over-year.
  • U.S. Federal Services made up 56.5% of Q3 2025 revenue.
  • Operating cash flow was negative $220 million for nine months ended June 2025.
  • International sales were 11% of total revenue in Q3 2025.

Bottom Line

Maximus has evolved by focusing on government health and human services, expanding digital capabilities, and streamlining its global footprint. The company’s adaptability and contract-driven model support its role as a key partner to public sector clients.
