Guardian Pharmacy Services Announces Launch of Underwritten Public Offering of Class A Common Stock
The proposed Offering is considered non-dilutive as Guardian intends to use all of the net proceeds it receives in the Offering to repurchase from certain stockholders a number of shares of Class A common stock equal to the number of shares being issued and sold by Guardian in the Offering, at a purchase price per share equal to the public offering price in the Offering, less the underwriting discount (the “Synthetic Secondary”). Accordingly, Guardian will not retain any proceeds from the Offering and, upon completion of the Offering and the Synthetic Secondary, the total number of outstanding shares of Class A common stock will remain the same. The shares to be repurchased by Guardian consist of shares of Class A common stock that were issued upon conversion of shares of Guardian’s Class B common stock that were originally issued in connection with its corporate reorganization in September 2024. Guardian will not receive any proceeds from the offering of shares by the selling stockholders in the Offering.
