Exela Expands Relationship with a Large Technology Services Provider for Medicaid Programs
However, in this context, it is perhaps also necessary to point out that the decline on Tuesday took the losses for the past month to as much as 52%. That being said, in light of the announcement from Exela yesterday, it may be a good move for investors to figure out if it might be time to consider the Exela stock when it is down.
The company announced yesterday that it had managed to further expand its relationship with a big technology services solutions company. The client in question provides its tech solutions to a large number of Medicaid programs that have been made available across the United States.
Following the expansion of the relationship, Exela is going to earn an additional $2.5 million initially. It is a major development for the company and it is going to be interesting to see if it leads to any interest in Exela stock over the course of the coming days or not.
