Guardian’s margins are highly stable LTC Medicare Part D represents ~70% of Guardian’s revenue CMS designates LTC as a “distinct pharmacy setting” and requires payors to compensate designated LTC pharmacies for the specific services they are required to provide to LTC residents CMS requires payors to maintain network adequacy in order to serve LTC residents CMS maintains a required list of 10 specific rules and services in order to participate in the LTC Part D program The CMS LTC Part D program requires payors to recognize the value and cost of required service offerings to elderly and often frail LTC residents and is designated a “distinct pharmacy setting.” This reimbursement environment is much different than the typical retail pharmacy where Commercial and Retail Part D might represent ~75% of the payor mix 10

EBITDA $1.330B - $1.350B $97M - $101M* 9% YoY growth at the mid-point 9% YoY growth at the mid-point (1) 2025 guidance includes full year of public company costs * Guardian has not provided a quantitative reconciliation of forecasted Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, to forecasted net income within this communication because Guardian is unable, without making unreasonable efforts, to calculate certain reconciling items with confidence due to the variability and complexity of such items. These items include, but are not limited to, income taxes and share-based compensation. These items, which could materially affect the computation of forecasted net income, are inherently uncertain and depend on 16 various factors.
