What Happened?

On December 2, 2025, after market hours, Acadia disclosed that “following its annual, third-party actuarial review of anticipated PLGL costs,” the Company expected higher expenses “associated primarily with patient-related litigation” and “now expects full-year 2025 Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $601 million to $611 million, compared to its prior guidance of $650 million to $660 million.” Additionally, the Company “now projects 2025 PLGL expense of approximately $116 million, compared to $54 million in 2024, representing a year-over-year increase of approximately $62 million” due primarily to higher expected settlement costs for claims, a significant increase in claim frequency, elevated incurred-but-not-reported reserves, and “[less] favorable reinsurance coverage terms versus prior years.”

On this news, Acadia’s stock price fell $1.80, or 10.9%, to close at $14.69 on December 3, 2025, thereby injuring investors.
