Max Smock has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors including Simulations Plus’s strong preliminary fiscal fourth-quarter results and a promising outlook for fiscal 2026.

Additionally, the adjusted EBITDA and EPS significantly outperformed targets, showcasing the company’s operational efficiency.
Simulations Plus’s guidance for fiscal 2026 suggests stable revenue growth and healthy profit margins, with expectations for adjusted EBITDA margin and EPS to remain strong.
