LEWISVILLE, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--GMR Solutions Inc. (“GMR” or the “Company”) (NYSE: GMRS), the nation’s largest provider of emergency medical services (“EMS”), today announced financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, and updated its full year 2026 financial guidance.


“We are pleased with our second quarter results, which reflect operational execution and continued momentum across our business,” said Nick Loporcaro, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at GMR. “We expanded our core emergency services, secured new business wins, and continued advancing innovative solutions such as 911 Nurse Navigation, while maintaining our focus on delivering exceptional patient care. As the nation’s only integrated air and ground medical services platform, we believe we are uniquely positioned to capitalize on growth opportunities, deliver clinical excellence, and drive long-term value creation through disciplined execution.”
“We delivered strong operational and financial performance during the second quarter, reflecting continued demand for our services and disciplined execution across the enterprise,” said Brian Tierney, Chief Financial Officer. “The prior-year period benefited from favorable revenue estimate developments driven by unusually strong collections on No Surprises Act claims related to prior years of service, resulting in a $74.3 million year-over-year difference in changes in revenue estimates. Despite this comparison dynamic, the underlying performance of our business remains strong, and we are reaffirming our full-year guidance, based on our results to date and outlook for the remainder of the year.”

(2) | A reconciliation of the foregoing guidance for the non-GAAP metric of Adjusted EBITDA to GAAP net income cannot be provided without unreasonable effort because of the inherent difficulty of accurately forecasting the occurrence and financial impact of the various adjusting items necessary for such reconciliation that have not yet occurred, are out of our control, or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to assess the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could have a material impact on its future GAAP financial results. |

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to, among other things, our operations and financial performance. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts, including statements related to our ability to capitalize on growth opportunities, drive long-term value creation and expand our services and statements regarding growth opportunities, delivery of services and our financial guidance. These forward-looking statements may relate to matters which include, but are not limited to, industries, business strategy, goals and expectations concerning our market position, future operations, margins, profitability, capital expenditures, liquidity and capital resources and other financial and operating information. In some cases, you can identify these forward-looking statements by the use of words such as “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “foreseeable,” “future,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “seek,” “should,” “will,” “would,” the negative version of these words, or similar terms and phrases.
The forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and are not guarantees of future performance. The forward-looking statements are subject to various risks, uncertainties, assumptions or changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict or quantify. Our expectations, beliefs and projections are expressed in good faith and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, there can be no assurance that management’s expectations, beliefs, and projections will result or be achieved. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to changes in global, regional or local economic, business, competitive, market, regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. We believe that these factors include but are not limited to the following:
These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included herein and in our filings with the SEC, including the information under the captions “Risk Factors” in GMR’s final prospectus (the “IPO Prospectus”) in connection with our initial public offering (the “IPO”), filed with the SEC and dated May 12, 2026, as well as GMR’s subsequent other filings with the SEC from time to time. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of our assumptions prove incorrect, our actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements.
Any forward-looking statement made by us herein speaks only as of the date of this press release and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included herein. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions, or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. Our forward-looking statements do not reflect the potential impact of any future acquisitions, mergers, dispositions, joint ventures, investments, or other strategic transactions we may make. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by any applicable securities laws. For additional information on these and other factors that could cause GMR’s actual results to differ materially from expected results, please see our filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and on the “Investor Relations” tab of our website.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains “non-GAAP financial measures,” which are financial measures that either exclude or include amounts that are not excluded or included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Specifically, we make use of the non-GAAP financial measures “EBITDA” and “Adjusted EBITDA.”
We provide non-GAAP financial information to enhance the understanding of our GAAP financial information and it should be considered by the reader in addition to, but not instead of, the financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Each non-GAAP financial measure is presented along with the corresponding GAAP measure so as not to imply that more emphasis should be placed on the non-GAAP measure. We believe that providing these non-GAAP measures in addition to the GAAP measures allows management, investors and other users of our financial information to more fully and accurately assess performance. The non-GAAP financial information presented may be determined or calculated differently by other companies and may not be directly comparable to that of other companies.
We define EBITDA as net income (loss) before interest expense, net, income tax provision (benefit), and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA, as further adjusted to exclude management fees, non-cash stock-based compensation, professional fees and other expenses for non-recurring matters, debt financing fees paid to (received from) third parties and certain other items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance.
Management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to supplement GAAP measures of performance in the evaluation of the effectiveness of our business strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to establish and award discretionary annual incentive compensation, to report compliance with certain covenants in our debt agreements and to compare our performance against that of peer companies using similar measures. Moreover, we present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we believe that investors consider them to be important supplemental measures of our performance and believe these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.
Adjusted EBITDA is an analytical indicator used by management and the healthcare industry to evaluate company performance and allocate resources. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income (loss), cash flows from operations, investing or financing activities, or other financial statement data presented in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as indicators of financial performance. Because Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure determined in accordance with GAAP and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, Adjusted EBITDA as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used in debt compliance calculations. Net income (loss) is the financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP that is most comparable to Adjusted EBITDA, as defined.
