About
DaVita Inc. is the leading kidney care company in the United States, providing dialysis services to patients with chronic kidney failure and end-stage renal disease (ESRD), founded in 1994 as Total Renal Care and rebranded as DaVita in 2000 after acquiring Gambro Healthcare. Headquartered in Denver, Colorado and trading on NYSE (DVA), DaVita generated approximately $12.8 billion in revenues for FY2024 under CEO Javier Rodriguez, operating approximately 3,000 outpatient dialysis centers across the United States serving approximately 237,000 patients, plus international operations in 13 countries. Berkshire Hathaway holds approximately 40% of DaVita's common shares—a major Warren Buffett investment thesis built on the essential, recurring nature of ESRD treatment, which patients require three times per week for life unless they receive a kidney transplant.

The company achieved extraordinary commercial success with Spikevax, its COVID-19 mRNA vaccine developed in partnership with the U.S. government in 2020—generating $18.4 billion in COVID vaccine revenues in 2022 at peak—before experiencing a severe revenue decline as global COVID booster demand normalized. For FY2024, Moderna generated approximately $3.2 billion in revenues, with Spikevax and the reformulated XBB.1.5-targeting COVID vaccine contributing the majority, while the company's significant R&D investment pipeline consumed most operating cash flows.
