Second Quarter GAAP Results

Revenue: In the second quarter of fiscal 2023, revenue was $63.5 billion, up 9.9 percent compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, reflecting an 11.3 percent increase in revenue within U.S. Healthcare Solutions. International Healthcare Solutions revenue declined 0.2 percent primarily resulting from the June 2022 divestiture of our Brazil specialty business and unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates in the current year quarter in comparison to the prior year quarter.

Gross Profit: Gross profit in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 was $2.3 billion, a 2.7 percent increase compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year due to an increase in gross profit in both reportable segments. The increase in gross profit was offset in part by a LIFO expense in the current year period versus a LIFO credit in the previous fiscal year period. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 3.62 percent, a decrease of 25 basis points from the prior year quarter.

Operating Expenses: In the second quarter of fiscal 2023, operating expenses were $1.7 billion, a 19.2 percent increase compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year, primarily driven by increases in distribution, selling, and administrative expenses, restructuring and other expenses, and depreciation and amortization expenses compared to the prior year quarter.

Operating Income: In the second quarter of fiscal 2023, operating income was $560.5 million, a 28.2 percent decrease compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year due to the increase in operating expenses, offset in part by the increase in gross profit. Operating income as a percentage of revenue was 0.88 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2023, a decline of 47 basis points when compared to the prior year quarter.

Interest Expense, Net: In the second quarter of fiscal 2023, net interest expense of $64.1 million increased 21.2 percent versus the prior year quarter primarily due to increases in borrowings and interest rates associated with variable-rate debt, offset in part by an increase in interest income as a result of higher investment interest rates.

Effective Tax Rate: The effective tax rate was 16.4 percent for the second quarter of fiscal 2023, reflecting the mix of the Company's domestic and international income and discrete tax benefits. This compares to 23.7 percent in the prior year quarter, which reflected discrete tax expenses.

Diluted Earnings Per Share: Diluted earnings per share was $2.13 in the second quarter of fiscal 2023, a 17.8 percent decrease compared to $2.59 in the previous fiscal year's second quarter.

Diluted Shares Outstanding: Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the second quarter of fiscal 2023 were 204.3 million, a decrease of 7.7 million shares, or 3.6 percent versus the prior fiscal year second quarter primarily as a result of share repurchases.

Revenue: No adjustments were made to the GAAP presentation of revenue. In the second quarter of fiscal 2023, revenue was $63.5 billion, up 9.9 percent compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, reflecting an 11.3 percent increase in revenue within U.S. Healthcare Solutions.

Adjusted Operating Expenses: In the second quarter of fiscal 2023, adjusted operating expenses were $1.4 billion, a 9.4 percent increase, driven by an increase in distribution, selling, and administrative expenses compared to the prior year quarter primarily to support revenue growth in U.S. Healthcare Solutions and reflecting inflationary impacts on certain operating expenses.

Adjusted Operating Income: In the second quarter of fiscal 2023, adjusted operating income was $932.1 million, a 1.7 percent increase compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, driven by a 3.6 percent increase in U.S. Healthcare Solutions, offset in part by a 5.9 percent decline in International Healthcare Solutions due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates in the current year quarter in comparison to the prior year quarter. On a constant currency basis, adjusted operating income increased 4.4 percent compared to the prior year quarter. On a constant currency basis, International Healthcare Solutions segment operating income increased 7.3 percent.

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 $56.7 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2023, an increase of 11.3 percent compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year due to overall market growth primarily driven by unit volume growth, including increased sales to our two largest customers and increased sales of specialty products to physician practices and health systems, offset in part by a decline in sales of commercial COVID-19 treatments. Segment operating income of $756.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 was up 3.6 percent compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year as a result of an increase in gross profit, offset in part by the increase in operating expenses, which included inflationary impacts on certain operating expenses.

International Healthcare Solutions

Revenue in International Healthcare Solutions was $6.8 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2023, a decrease of 0.2 percent from the previous fiscal year's second quarter. Segment operating income in the second quarter of fiscal 2023 was $176.0 million, a decrease of 5.9 percent. The period over period declines were due to the June 2022 divestiture of our Brazil specialty business and unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates in the current year quarter in comparison to the prior year quarter. On a constant currency basis, International Healthcare Solutions revenue and operating income increased by 11.9 percent and 7.3 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, Turkey highly inflationary impact, and LIFO expense (credit). 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, Turkey highly inflationary impact, and LIFO expense (credit) 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; acquisition-related deal and integration expenses; restructuring and other expenses; and impairment of assets. 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, and the impairment of assets, that are 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 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 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 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 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) primarily attributable to foreign valuation allowance adjustments for the six months ended March 31, 2022 are also excluded from adjusted income tax expense. Further, certain expenses relating to tax reform in Switzerland are excluded from adjusted income tax expense for the six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022. 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 net income/loss attributable to noncontrolling interests: Adjusted net income/loss attributable to noncontrolling interests excludes the non-controlling interest portion of the same items described above. Management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors because it facilitates the calculation of adjusted net income attributable to the Company.

Adjusted net income attributable to the Company: 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; Turkey highly inflationary impact; LIFO expense (credit); acquisition-related intangibles amortization; litigation and opioid-related expenses; acquisition-related deal and integration expenses; restructuring and other expenses; recovery of a non-customer note receivable; a foreign currency gain; impairment of assets; and the gain (loss) on the currency remeasurement related to 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 expense primarily attributable to foreign valuation allowance adjustments for the six months ended March 31, 2022, and the per share impact of certain expenses relating to tax reform in Switzerland for the six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 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. 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 second quarter of fiscal 2023 in the International Healthcare Solutions segment, (i) revenue of $6.8 billion was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $818 million, resulting in revenue on a constant currency basis of $7.6 billion, and (ii) operating income of $176 million was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $25 million, resulting in operating income on a constant currency basis of $201 million.

In addition, the Company has provided non-GAAP fiscal year 2023 guidance for diluted earnings per share, operating income, effective income tax rate, and free cash flows 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.
