Guardian Pharmacy Services, Inc. Class A ( (GRDN) ) has shared an update.

Guardian Pharmacy Services, a major U.S. long-term care pharmacy operator, reaffirmed its 2025 revenue guidance of $1.43 billion to $1.45 billion and adjusted EBITDA guidance of $104 million to $106 million, while issuing an initial 2026 outlook that anticipates revenue of $1.40 billion to $1.42 billion after the impact of Inflation Reduction Act drug-pricing reforms and wholesale acquisition cost reductions. Despite the expected top-line pressure from these mandatory pricing changes, the company projects 2026 adjusted EBITDA of $115 million to $118 million—about 11% year-on-year growth and implying an adjusted EBITDA margin above 8%—and highlighted that its strengthened operating model should allow it to maintain its low double-digit adjusted EBITDA growth trajectory without altering its approach to resident care or facility support; Guardian also disclosed it had completed the year-end acquisition of a single pharmacy in Montana, extending its geographic footprint into a new territory in line with its expansion strategy.
