Medicure Reports Financial Results for Quarter Ended June 30, 2026 and Schedules August 17, 2026 Conference Call
Rhea-AI Summary
Medicure (OTC:MCUJF, TSXV:MPH) reported Q2 2026 net revenue of $7.4 million, up from $6.7 million in Q2 2025, driven mainly by growth in its Pharmacy Business Segment, including Marley Drug, Gateway Medical Pharmacy and West Olympia Pharmacy. Pharmacy segment revenue reached $5.9 million, versus $4.2 million a year earlier, with ZYPITAMAG® pharmacy sales of $1.2 million and other pharmacy revenue of $4.7 million. ZYPITAMAG® total net revenue rose to $2.1 million, while AGGRASTAT® revenue declined to $661,000 from $1.7 million due to lower volume and generic competition. Adjusted EBITDA turned positive at $172,000 versus negative $28,000, but net loss widened to $1.4 million (–$0.14 per share), influenced by an $864,000 CMS‑related liability, higher pharmacy cost of goods sold and non‑cash amortization expenses. Unrestricted cash declined to $1.8 million from $3.8 million at December 31, 2025. The company invested $608,000 in R&D and scheduled a conference call for August 17, 2026 at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time.

Notes
The Company defines EBITDA as "earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and other income or expense" and Adjusted EBITDA as "EBITDA adjusted for non‑cash and non-recurring items". The terms "EBITDA" and "Adjusted EBITDA", as it relates to the three month period ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 results prepared using IFRS, do not have any standardized meaning according to IFRS. It is therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.
