Rochester, Minn.-based Mayo Clinic has reported an operating gain of $149 million for the first quarter on revenue of $4.3 billion.
That compares with a $142 million gain on $3.9 billion revenues in the first quarter of 2022.

Mayo Clinic, which employs over 76,000 people, had cash and investments totaling $17.65 billion as of March 31, a $331 million increase on the end-of-2022 numbers.
Its days of cash on hand totaled 351 at the end of the first quarter, while long-term debt was at almost $4 billion.
"Mayo Clinic is pleased with the strong start represented by these first quarter results," management stated. "Strong volumes, investment gains and favorable expense management all contributed to the quarter's performance."
