CENCORA REPORTS FISCAL 2024 THIRD QUARTER RESULTS
Revenue of $74.2 billion for the Third Quarter, a 10.9 Percent Increase Year-Over-Year
Third Quarter GAAP Diluted EPS of $2.42 and Adjusted Diluted EPS of $3.34
Adjusted Diluted EPS Guidance Range Raised to $13.55 to $13.65 for Fiscal 2024


 
CONSHOHOCKEN, PA, July 31, 2024 - Cencora, Inc. (NYSE: COR) today reported that in its fiscal year 2024 third quarter ended June 30, 2024, revenue increased 10.9 percent year-over-year to $74.2 billion. On the basis of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $2.42 for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to $2.35 in the prior year third quarter. Adjusted diluted EPS, which is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes items described below, increased 14.4 percent to $3.34 in the fiscal third quarter from $2.92 in the prior year third quarter.

Cencora is updating its outlook for fiscal year 2024. The Company does not provide forward-looking guidance on a GAAP basis, as discussed below in Fiscal Year 2024 Expectations. Adjusted diluted EPS guidance has been raised from the previous range of $13.35 to $13.55 to a range of $13.55 to $13.65.

“We are pleased to raise our fiscal 2024 guidance following Cencora’s strong third quarter results, as our purpose-driven team members exhibited another quarter of solid execution against our pharmaceutical-centric strategy,” said Steven H. Collis, Chairman, President & Chief Executive Officer of Cencora.

“Throughout my time as Cencora’s CEO, our strategic positioning at the center of healthcare has allowed our company to capitalize on market growth and innovation while enhancing our capabilities to help our customers navigate the complexity of the ever-changing healthcare environment," Mr. Collis continued. “As I move into my new role as Executive Chairman of the Board on October 1st, I am incredibly proud of the growth and evolution of our enterprise, and as COO Bob Mauch concurrently transitions into his new role of CEO, I am confident that Cencora will continue to drive long-term value creation for its partners and stakeholders.”

For more information related to non-GAAP financial measures, including adjustments made in the periods presented, please refer to the “Supplemental Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures” following the tables.

Third Quarter GAAP Results

•Revenue: In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, revenue was $74.2 billion, up 10.9 percent compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, primarily due to a 12.2 percent increase in revenue within the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment.

•Gross Profit: Gross profit in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was $2.4 billion, a 6.5 percent increase compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year, due primarily to the increase in gross profit in the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment and a lower Turkey highly inflationary impact on inventory, offset in part by lower gains from antitrust litigation settlements. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 3.25 percent, a decrease of 13 basis points from the prior year quarter due to the decline in U.S. Healthcare Solutions gross profit margin primarily due to increased sales of products labeled for diabetes and/or weight loss in the GLP-1 class, which have lower profit margins.

•Operating Expenses: In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, operating expenses were $1.7 billion, a 9.0 percent increase compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, primarily due to a litigation and opioid-related expense in the current year period compared to a credit in the prior year quarter, and an increase in distribution, selling, and administrative expenses to support revenue growth.

•Operating Income: In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, operating income of $672.5 million was essentially flat compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year due to the increase in gross profit, offset by the increase in operating expenses. Operating income as a percentage of revenue was 0.91 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, a decrease of 9 basis points when compared to the prior year quarter due to the decline in gross profit margin.

•Interest Expense, Net: In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, net interest expense of $31.3 million decreased 45.9 percent compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year due to an increase in interest income as a result of higher investment interest rates and higher average investment cash balances, and a decrease in interest expense driven by decreased variable-rate borrowings and the September 2023 divestiture of our less-than-wholly-owned subsidiary in Egypt.

•Effective Tax Rate: The effective tax rate was 22.4 percent for the third quarter of fiscal 2024. The effective tax rate was 21.3 percent in the prior year quarter.

•Diluted Earnings Per Share: Diluted earnings per share was $2.42 in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, a 3.0 percent increase compared to $2.35 in the previous fiscal year’s third quarter.

•Diluted Shares Outstanding: Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 were 200.0 million, a decrease of 2.1 percent versus the prior fiscal year third quarter primarily due to share repurchases.



Third Quarter Adjusted (non-GAAP) Results

•Revenue: No adjustments were made to the GAAP presentation of revenue. In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, revenue was $74.2 billion, up 10.9 percent compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, primarily due to a 12.2 percent increase in revenue within the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment.

•Adjusted Gross Profit: Adjusted gross profit in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was $2.4 billion, a 6.2 percent increase compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year due to the increase in gross profit in the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment. Adjusted gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 3.19 percent in the fiscal 2024 third quarter, a decrease of 14 basis points from the prior year quarter due to the decline in U.S. Healthcare Solutions gross profit margin primarily due to increased sales of products labeled for diabetes and/or weight loss in the GLP-1 class, which have lower profit margins.

•Adjusted Operating Expenses: In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, adjusted operating expenses were $1.5 billion, a 5.9 percent increase compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year, primarily driven by an increase in distribution, selling, and administrative expenses to support revenue growth.

•Adjusted Operating Income: In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, adjusted operating income was $877.7 million, a 6.7 percent increase compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, driven by a 9.9 percent increase in U.S. Healthcare Solutions, partially offset by a 4.1 percent decrease in International Healthcare Solutions. Adjusted operating income as a percentage of revenue was 1.18 percent in the fiscal 2024 third quarter, a decrease of 5 basis points when compared to the prior year quarter.

•Interest Expense, Net: No adjustments were made to the GAAP presentation of net interest expense. In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, net interest expense of $31.3 million decreased 45.9 percent compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year due to an increase in interest income as a result of higher investment interest rates and higher average investment cash balances, and a decrease in interest expense driven by decreased variable-rate borrowings and the September 2023 divestiture of our less-than-wholly-owned subsidiary in Egypt.

•Adjusted Effective Tax Rate: The adjusted effective tax rate was 21.0 percent for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 compared to 21.5 percent in the prior year quarter.

•Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share: Adjusted diluted earnings per share was $3.34 in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, a 14.4 percent increase compared to $2.92 in the previous fiscal year’s third quarter.

•Diluted Shares Outstanding: No adjustments were made to the GAAP presentation of diluted shares outstanding. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 were 200.0 million, a decrease of 2.1 percent versus the prior fiscal year third quarter primarily due to share repurchases.

Segment Discussion

    The Company is organized geographically based upon the products and services it provides to its customers under two reportable segments: U.S. Healthcare Solutions and International Healthcare Solutions.

U.S. Healthcare Solutions

    U.S. Healthcare Solutions revenue was $67.2 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, an increase of 12.2 percent compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year due to overall market growth primarily driven by unit volume growth, including increased sales of products labeled for diabetes and/or weight loss in the GLP-1 class and increased sales of specialty products to physician practices and health systems. Segment operating income of $698.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was up 9.9 percent compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year reflecting an increase in gross profit, partially offset by an increase in operating expenses.



International Healthcare Solutions
    
    International Healthcare Solutions revenue of $7.1 billion in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was flat compared to the previous fiscal year’s third quarter. Segment operating income in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was $179.4 million, a decrease of 4.1 percent, primarily due to higher information technology expenses in our European distribution business and lower operating income at our global specialty logistics business, partially offset by the positive results of our Canadian business. On a constant currency basis, International Healthcare Solutions revenue and operating income increased by 5.8 percent and 0.8 percent, respectively.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION REGARDING
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company uses the non-GAAP financial measures described below. The non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. These supplemental measures may vary from, and may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures by other companies.

The non-GAAP financial measures are presented because management uses non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the Company’s operating performance, to perform financial planning, and to determine incentive compensation. Therefore, the Company believes that the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information to, and facilitates additional analysis by, investors. The presented non-GAAP financial measures exclude items that management does not believe reflect the Company’s core operating performance because such items are outside the control of the Company or are inherently unusual, non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring, or non-cash. We have included the following non-GAAP earnings-related financial measures in this release:

•Adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross profit margin: Adjusted gross profit is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes gains from antitrust litigation settlements, LIFO expense (credit), and Turkey highly inflationary impact. Adjusted gross profit margin is the ratio of adjusted gross profit to total revenue. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors as a supplemental measure of the Company’s ongoing operating performance. Gains from antitrust litigation settlements, LIFO expense (credit), and Turkey highly inflationary impact are excluded because the Company cannot control the amounts recognized or timing of these items. Gains from antitrust litigation settlements relate to the settlement of lawsuits that have been filed against brand pharmaceutical manufacturers alleging that the manufacturer, by itself or in concert with others, took improper actions to delay or prevent generic drugs from entering the market. LIFO expense (credit) is affected by changes in inventory quantities, product mix, and manufacturer pricing practices, which may be impacted by market and other external influences.

•Adjusted operating expenses and adjusted operating expense margin: Adjusted operating expenses is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes acquisition-related intangibles amortization; litigation and opioid-related expenses, net; acquisition-related deal and integration expenses; and restructuring and other expenses. Adjusted operating expense margin is the ratio of adjusted operating expenses to total revenue. Acquisition-related intangibles amortization is excluded because it is a non-cash item and does not reflect the operating performance of the acquired companies. We exclude acquisition-related deal and integration expenses and restructuring and other expenses that relate to unpredictable and/or non-recurring business activities. We exclude the amount of litigation and opioid-related expenses, net that is unusual, non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring or non-cash in nature because we believe these exclusions facilitate the analysis of our ongoing operational performance.

•Adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income margin: Adjusted operating income is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the same items that are described above and excluded from adjusted gross profit and adjusted operating expenses. Adjusted operating income margin is the ratio of adjusted operating income to total revenue. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors as a supplemental way to evaluate the Company’s performance because the adjustments are unusual, non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring or non-cash in nature.

•Adjusted income before income taxes: Adjusted income before income taxes is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the same items that are described above and excluded from adjusted operating income. In addition, the loss on remeasurement of an equity investment, the recovery of a non-customer note receivable, a foreign currency gain, and the gain (loss) on the currency remeasurement of the deferred tax asset relating to 2020 Swiss tax reform are excluded from adjusted income before income taxes because these amounts are unusual, non-operating, and non-recurring. Management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors because it facilitates the calculation of the Company’s adjusted effective tax rate.





•Adjusted income tax expense: Adjusted income tax expense is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the income tax expense associated with the same items that are described above and excluded from adjusted income before income taxes. Certain discrete tax expense (benefits) are also excluded from adjusted income tax expense. Further, certain expenses relating to 2020 Swiss tax reform are excluded from adjusted income tax expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors as a supplemental way to evaluate the Company’s performance because the adjustments are unusual, non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring or non-cash in nature.

•Adjusted effective tax rate: Adjusted effective tax rate is a non-GAAP financial measure that is determined by dividing adjusted income tax expense by adjusted income before income taxes. Management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors because it presents an effective tax rate that does not reflect unusual, non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring, or non-cash amounts or items that are outside the control of the Company.

•Adjusted net income attributable to Cencora: Adjusted net income attributable to the Company is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the same items that are described above. Management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors as a supplemental way to evaluate the Company’s performance because the adjustments are unusual, non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring or non-cash in nature.

•Adjusted diluted earnings per share: Adjusted diluted earnings per share excludes the per share impact of adjustments including gains from antitrust litigation settlements; LIFO expense (credit); Turkey highly inflationary impact; acquisition-related intangibles amortization; litigation and opioid-related expenses, net; acquisition-related deal and integration expenses; restructuring and other expenses; the loss on remeasurement of an equity investment; recovery of a non-customer note receivable; a foreign currency gain; and the gain (loss) on the currency remeasurement related to 2020 Swiss tax reform, in each case net of the tax effect calculated using the applicable effective tax rate for those items. In addition, the per share impact of certain discrete tax items, and the per share impact of certain expenses relating to 2020 Swiss tax reform for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are also excluded from adjusted diluted earnings per share. Management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors because it eliminates the per share impact of the items that are outside the control of the Company or that we consider to not be indicative of our ongoing operating performance due to their inherent unusual, non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring, or non-cash nature.

•Adjusted Free Cash Flow: Adjusted free cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as net cash provided by operating activities, excluding significant unpredictable or non-recurring cash payments or receipts relating to legal settlements, minus capital expenditures. Adjusted free cash flow is used internally by management for measuring operating cash flow generation and setting performance targets and has historically been used as one of the means of providing guidance on possible future cash flows. For the nine months ended June 30, 2024, adjusted free cash flow of $2,308.6 million consisted of net cash provided by operating activities of $2,484.3 million plus $237.7 million for the prepayment of a future obligation as permitted under our opioid settlement agreements, minus capital expenditures of $304.8 million and gains from antitrust litigation settlements of $108.6 million. The Company does not provide forward looking guidance on a GAAP basis for free cash flow because the timing and amount of favorable and unfavorable settlements excluded from this metric, the probable significance of which cannot be determined, are unavailable and cannot be reasonably estimated.

The Company also presents certain information related to current period operating results in “constant currency,” which is a non-GAAP financial measure. These amounts are calculated by translating current period results at the foreign currency exchange rates used in the comparable period in the prior year. The Company presents such constant currency financial information because it has significant operations outside of the United States reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar and this presentation provides a framework to assess how its business performed excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. For the third quarter of fiscal 2024, (i) revenue of $74.2 billion was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $407.8 million, resulting in revenue on a constant currency basis of $74.6 billion, and (ii) operating income of $877.7 million was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $9.2 million, resulting in operating income on a constant currency basis of $886.9 million. For the third quarter of fiscal 2024 in the International Healthcare Solutions segment, (i) revenue of $7.1 billion was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $407.8 million, resulting in revenue on a constant currency basis of $7.5 billion, and (ii) operating income of $179.4 million was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $9.2 million, resulting in operating income on a constant currency basis of $188.6 million. For the nine months ended June 30, 2024 (i) revenue of $214.9 billion was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $831.4 million, resulting in revenue on a constant currency basis of $215.7 billion, and (ii) operating income of $2,797.2 million was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $37.7 million, resulting in operating income on a constant currency basis of $2,835.0 million. For the nine months ended June 30, 2024, in the International Healthcare Solutions segment, (i) revenue of $21.2 billion was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $831.4 million, resulting in revenue on a constant currency basis of $22.1 billion, and (ii) operating income of $559.7 million was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $37.7 million, resulting in operating income on a constant currency basis of $597.4 million.



In addition, the Company has provided non-GAAP fiscal year 2024 guidance for diluted earnings per share, operating income, effective income tax rate, and free cash flow that excludes the same or similar items as those that are excluded from the historical non-GAAP financial measures, as well as significant items that are outside the control of the Company or inherently unusual, non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring or non-cash in nature. The Company does not provide forward looking guidance on a GAAP basis for such metrics because certain financial information, the probable significance of which cannot be determined, is not available and cannot be reasonably estimated. For example, LIFO expense (credit) is largely dependent upon the future inflation or deflation of brand and generic pharmaceuticals, which is out of the Company’s control, and acquisition-related intangibles amortization depends on the timing and amount of future acquisitions, which cannot be reasonably estimated. Similarly, the timing and amount of favorable and unfavorable settlements, the probable significance of which cannot be determined, are unavailable and cannot be reasonably estimated.
