Try this:

$var = Get-ADUser -Identity username | Select-Object -ExpandProperty ObjectGUID

You are confusing the default output with the actual contents of your variable. $var contains an object which has a property called ObjectGUID. The default output is just showing you this.

$var

ObjectGUID

To see only the value of ObjectGUID, simply type (echo, or its underlying command Write-Output, is typically not needed):

ObjectGUID

echo

Write-Output

$var.ObjectGUID

To use it as input to another cmdlet, you can do things like:

$var.ObjectGUID | My-Command

My-Command -Guid $var.ObjectGUID
