MediPharm Labs achieved positive adjusted EBITDA(1)in Q1 2026, reflecting disciplined execution and continued cost control aligned with the Company’s strategic roadmap to profitability.

In Canada, MediPharm Labs remains committed to serving patients and wellness consumers through its direct‑to‑patient medical platform, its established clinic network, Harvest Medicine, and its expanding wellness portfolio.
