Molina Guides FY26 Adjusted EPS to at Least $5.25
MOH sits 72% above its 52-week low of $121.06.
Summary
Molina put a floor of at least $5.25 per share on FY26 adjusted EPS, disclosed alongside its Q3 release, and also expects FY26 GAAP EPS of at least $2.38 per share. The Q3 numbers themselves were already out: $0.73 GAAP EPS, $0.89 adjusted, $38 million of net income. The forward figures are the piece traders did not have, and they land against a rough backdrop — Q2 net income fell 76% to $60 million as medical costs spiked and membership dropped 14%. A guidance floor rather than a range suggests management wants to anchor expectations low while cost trends stay elevated. Watch the Q4 report for whether the medical cost ratio stabilizes.
