Acadia Healthcare reported a significant net loss in Q4 2025 due to a US$996.20 million goodwill impairment, despite revenue reaching US$821.46 million. The company provided cautious 2026 revenue guidance of US$3.37 billion to US$3.45 billion, with only 0-1% same-facility volume growth, attributing this to planned occupancy ramps and headwinds from New York Medicaid policy changes. This outlook emphasizes the importance of occupancy improvements and the risks associated with Medicaid policy shifts for Acadia Healthcare’s investment narrative.
