Analysis

The stock moved +5.8% in the session following this news. A strong positive reaction aligns with Kamada’s pattern of price moves tracking upbeat operational and guidance updates. Recent history showed aligned reactions to strong earnings and commercial wins, though one clinical milestone saw divergence. Investors could weigh that current guidance still depends on organic growth execution and that prior setbacks, like trial discontinuation, illustrate pipeline risk that might temper enthusiasm if future developments disappoint.

Key Terms

5 terms
EBITDA financial
"We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we use these non-IFRS..."
EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. It measures a company's profitability by focusing on the money it makes from its core operations, ignoring expenses like taxes and accounting adjustments. Investors use EBITDA to compare how well different companies are performing financially, as it provides a clearer picture of operational success without the influence of financial structure or accounting choices.
adjusted EBITDA financial
"2026 annual guidance of $200 million - $205 million in revenues and $50 million - $53 million of adjusted EBITDA."
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
IFRS financial
"EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under IFRS and do not purport..."
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) are a set of common accounting rules used by many companies worldwide to prepare financial statements, so numbers like revenue, profit and assets are measured in the same way across borders. For investors, IFRS matters because it makes it easier to compare the financial health and performance of different companies—like using the same ruler to measure different objects—reducing surprises and helping informed investment decisions.
non-IFRS financial measures financial
"We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we use these non-IFRS financial measures..."
Non-IFRS financial measures are company-reported numbers that modify or exclude items from standard accounting results so management can highlight what it sees as underlying business performance—common examples are adjusted EBITDA or adjusted earnings per share. They matter to investors because they can make trends clearer by removing unusual or noncash items, like cleaning lens smudges off a camera, but they require scrutiny since companies decide what to exclude and comparisons across firms may not be uniform.
derivatives instruments financial
"plus or minus income or expenses in respect of currency exchange differences and derivatives instruments, net..."
Financial contracts whose value comes from another asset, index, or event—like a bet or insurance policy tied to the price of a stock, bond, commodity, or interest rate. They let investors hedge risk (protect against losses), speculate on future moves, or gain exposure without owning the asset itself; think of them as price-linked agreements that can magnify gains or losses and therefore affect a company’s risk profile and market valuation.

REHOVOT, Israel and HOBOKEN, N.J., Jan. 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kamada Ltd. (NASDAQ: KMDA; TASE: KMDA.TA), a global biopharmaceutical company with a portfolio of marketed products indicated for rare and serious conditions and a leader in the specialty plasma-derived field, today announced that, based on its positive outlook for 2026, it is forecasting continued double-digit profitable growth with 2026 annual guidance of $200 million - $205 million in revenues and $50 million - $53 million of adjusted EBITDA. Importantly, the projected 2026 growth is based solely on continued organic growth of the Company’s diverse commercial products portfolio in multiple markets in both its Proprietary segment which covers the specialty plasma therapies and the Distribution segment which covers commercialization of in-licensing third parties biopharmaceutical products. The 2026 midpoint guidance range represents a year-over-year increase of 13% in revenues and 23% in adjusted EBITDA, based on the mid-points of Kamada’s 2025 guidance. The Company further announced that it expects to achieve its 2025 financial guidance of $178 million - $182 million in revenues and $40 million - $44 million of adjusted EBITDA, with 2025 year-end cash of approximately $75 million. Kamada intends to publish its 2025 financial results during the first half of March 2026.

“We enter 2026 from a position of significant commercial and financial strength and are excited about the progress we have made over the past year,” said Amir London, Kamada’s Chief Executive Officer. “We look forward to achieving our value generating objectives for 2026, driven by continued organic growth of our diverse commercial product portfolio marketed in over 30 countries. We are also pleased with our ability to consistently convert adjusted EBITDA into operational cash.”

“Our projected growth in 2026 is expected to be driven by continued expansion of our entire commercial product portfolio, including growth in our U.S. sales, and continued increase in sales of KAMRAB®, GLASSIA®, HEPAGAM® and VARIZIG® in ex-U.S. markets. We also anticipate continued growth of our Distribution segment through the launch of additional biosimilar products in the Israeli market, as well as the expansion of the Distribution business to the MENA region, and initial sales of normal source plasma collected in our multiple centers in Texas. The overall profitable growth is achievable even after accounting for a reduction of the GLASSIA royalty payments rate received from TAKEDA, which became effective in August 2025 and will have its first full-year impact in 2026, further solidifying the strength of our diverse commercial infrastructure,” continued Mr. London.

“We also continue to focus on identifying and securing compelling new business development and M&A transactions. We expect that these initiatives will enrich our current portfolio of marketed products and generate synergies with our existing commercial operations. In addition, we expect to continue increasing the plasma collection in our three plasma centers aiming to strengthen our vertical integration, reduce specialty plasma costs and support continued growth through sales of normal source plasma,” concluded Mr. London.

Non-IFRS financial measures
We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we use these non-IFRS financial measures to assess our operational performance, for financial and operational decision-making, and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons on a consistent basis. Management believes these non-IFRS financial measures are useful to investors because: (1) they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and provide investors with a meaningful perspective on the current underlying performance of the Company’s core ongoing operations; and (2) they exclude the impact of certain items that are not directly attributable to our core operating performance and that may obscure trends in the core operating performance of the business. Non-IFRS financial measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, our IFRS results. We expect to continue reporting non-IFRS financial measures, adjusting for the items described below, and we expect to continue to incur expenses similar to certain of the non-cash, non-IFRS adjustments described below. Accordingly, unless otherwise stated, the exclusion of these and other similar items in the presentation of non-IFRS financial measures should not be construed as an inference that these items are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under IFRS and do not purport to be an alternative to IFRS terms as an indicator of operating performance or any other IFRS measure. Moreover, because not all companies use identical measures and calculations, the presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. EBITDA is defined as net income (loss), plus income tax expense, plus or minus financial income or expenses, net, plus or minus income or expense in respect of securities measured at fair value, net, plus or minus income or expenses in respect of currency exchange differences and derivatives instruments, net, plus depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA plus non-cash share-based compensation expenses and certain other costs.

For the projected 2026 and 2025 adjusted EBITDA information presented herein, the Company is unable to provide a reconciliation of this forward measure to the most comparable IFRS financial measure because the information for these measures is dependent on future events, many of which are outside of the Company’s control. Additionally, estimating such forward-looking measures and providing a meaningful reconciliation consistent with the Company’s accounting policies for future periods is meaningfully difficult and requires a level of precision that is unavailable for these future periods and cannot be accomplished without unreasonable effort. Forward-looking non-IFRS measures are estimated in a manner consistent with the relevant definitions and assumptions noted in the Company’s adjusted EBITDA for historical periods.
