Second Quarter GAAP Results
- Revenue: In the second quarter of fiscal 2025, revenue was $75.5 billion, up 10.3 percent compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, primarily due to an 11.4 percent increase in revenue within the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment.
- Gross Profit: Gross profit in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was $3.1 billion, a 20.6 percent increase compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year, primarily due to the increase in gross profit in the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment and larger gains from antitrust litigation settlements, offset in part by LIFO expense in the current year period in comparison to a LIFO credit in the prior year period and a decrease in gross profit in the International Healthcare Solutions segment. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 4.06 percent, an increase of 35 basis points from the prior year quarter due to the increase in U.S. Healthcare Solutions gross profit margin, primarily as a result of the January 2025 acquisition of Retina Consultants of America (RCA).
- Operating Expenses: In the second quarter of fiscal 2025, operating expenses were $2.0 billion, a 2.0 percent increase compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, primarily due to an increase in distribution, selling, and administrative expenses as a result of the acquisition of RCA and to support our revenue growth, offset in part by lower litigation and opioid-related expenses compared to the prior year period, which included a $214.0 million litigation accrual related to the distribution of prescription opioid medications.
- Operating Income: In the second quarter of fiscal 2025, operating income was $1.0 billion, an increase of 87.3 percent compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year due to the increase in gross profit, offset in part by the increase in operating expenses. Operating income as a percentage of revenue was 1.37 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to 0.81 percent in the prior year quarter.
- Interest Expense, Net: In the second quarter of fiscal 2025, net interest expense was $104.0 million, an increase of 62.2 percent from the prior year quarter primarily due to an increase in interest expense as a result of our issuance of $1.8 billion of senior notes in December 2024 and the $1.5 billion variable-rate term loan, which we borrowed in January 2025, to finance a portion of the RCA acquisition, and increased revolving credit facility borrowings to cover seasonal short-term working capital needs.
- Effective Tax Rate: The effective tax rate was 22.7 percent for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to 9.8 percent in the prior year quarter, which included discrete tax benefits associated with foreign valuation allowance adjustments.
- Diluted Earnings Per Share: Diluted earnings per share was $3.68 in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, a 76.1 percent increase compared to $2.09 in the previous fiscal year's second quarter.
- Diluted Shares Outstanding: Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the second quarter of fiscal 2025 were 195.1 million, a decrease of 3.0 percent versus the prior year second quarter primarily due to share repurchases.

- Revenue: No adjustments were made to the GAAP presentation of revenue.

- Adjusted Gross Profit: Adjusted gross profit in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was $2.9 billion, a 15.2 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, offset in part by the decrease in gross profit in the International Healthcare Solutions segment. Adjusted gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 3.86 percent in the fiscal 2025 second quarter, an increase of 16 basis points from the prior year quarter due to the increase in U.S. Healthcare Solutions gross profit margin, primarily as a result of the January 2025 acquisition of RCA.
- Adjusted Operating Expenses: In the second quarter of fiscal 2025, adjusted operating expenses were $1.7 billion, a 15.2 percent increase compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year, primarily driven by an increase in distribution, selling, and administrative expenses as a result of the January 2025 acquisition of RCA and to support our revenue growth.
- Adjusted Operating Income: In the second quarter of fiscal 2025, adjusted operating income was $1.2 billion, a 15.3 percent increase compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year, driven by an increase in the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment, partially offset by a decrease in the International Healthcare Solutions segment.

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 $68.3 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of 11.4 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 specialty products to physician practices and health systems. There was no significant increase in U.S. Healthcare Solutions revenue resulting from the acquisition of RCA as inventory sales from our specialty distribution business to RCA are now being eliminated in consolidation. Segment operating income of $1.0 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was up 22.8 percent compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year primarily due to the increase in gross profit, as a result of increased product sales and the January 2025 acquisition of RCA, offset in part by the increase in operating expenses.
International Healthcare Solutions
International Healthcare Solutions revenue was $7.2 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of 0.7 percent compared to the previous fiscal year's second quarter. Segment operating income in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was $159.3 million, a decrease of 17.3 percent, primarily due to lower operating income at our global specialty logistics business and our European distribution business. On a constant currency basis, International Healthcare Solutions revenue increased by 5.7 percent while segment operating income decreased by 13.9 percent.
Recent Company Highlights & Milestones
- Cencora released its 2024 Corporate Responsibility Report and microsite, outlining the integration with business objectives and a focus on business resiliency and sustainable operations. For the seventh consecutive year, selected information within the 2024 report was assured by ERM Certification and Verification Services.
Fiscal Year 2025 Expectations
The Company does not provide forward-looking guidance on a GAAP basis as to certain financial information, where the probable significance of the information cannot be determined, is not available or cannot be reasonably estimated. Please refer to the Supplemental Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures following the tables for additional information.
Fiscal Year 2025 Expectations on an Adjusted (non-GAAP) Basis
Cencora is now updating its fiscal year 2025 financial guidance to reflect stronger earnings growth in the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment and a lower contribution from the International Healthcare Solutions segment.
There is no reduction to updated EPS guidance for a noncontrolling interest in RCA because the 15% equity interest retained by certain RCA physicians and members of management is accounted for by the Company as a contingent liability as opposed to a noncontrolling interest in equity.
The Company now expects:
- Adjusted diluted EPS to be in the range of $15.70 to $15.95, up from the previous range of $15.30 to $15.60.
Additional expectations now include:
- International Healthcare Solutions segment revenue growth to be in the range of 3 to 4 percent, down from the previous range of 4 to 5 percent;
- On a constant currency basis, International Healthcare Solutions segment revenue growth to be in the range of 6 to 8 percent, down from the previous range of 7 to 9 percent;
- Adjusted consolidated operating income growth to be in the range of 13.5 to 15.5 percent, up from the previous range of 11.5 to 13.5 percent;
- U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment operating income growth to be in the range of 17.5 to 19.5 percent, up from the previous range of 14.5 to 16.5 percent;
- International Healthcare Solutions segment as reported operating income decline of 1 to 4 percent, down from the previous guidance of no growth;
- On a constant currency basis, International Healthcare Solutions segment operating income growth to be down 3 percent to flat, from the previous guidance of an increase of approximately 5 percent;
- Weighted average diluted shares outstanding is expected to be in the range of 195.0 to 195.5 million, revised from the previous expectation of under 196 million.

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 gain (loss) on remeasurement of an equity investment, the loss on the divestiture of non-core businesses, 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, the amortization of deferred tax assets relating to 2020 Swiss tax reform is excluded from adjusted income tax expense. 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 gain (loss) on remeasurement of an equity investment; the loss on the divestiture of non-core businesses; 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 the amortization of deferred tax assets relating to 2020 Swiss tax reform 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 six months ended March 31, 2025, adjusted free cash flow of $176.0 million consisted of net cash provided by operating activities of $632.5 million, minus capital expenditures of $235.0 million and gains from antitrust litigation settlements of $221.5 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 second quarter of fiscal 2025, (i) revenue of $75.5 billion was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $357.7 million, resulting in revenue on a constant currency basis of $75.8 billion, and (ii) adjusted operating income of $1,192.3 million was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $6.6 million, resulting in adjusted operating income on a constant currency basis of $1,198.9 million. For the second quarter of fiscal 2025 in the International Healthcare Solutions segment, (i) revenue of $7.2 billion was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $357.7 million, resulting in revenue on a constant currency basis of $7.5 billion, and (ii) operating income of $159.3 million was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $6.6 million, resulting in operating income on a constant currency basis of $165.9 million. For the six months ended March 31, 2025 (i) revenue of $156.9 billion was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $574.4 million, resulting in revenue on a constant currency basis of $157.5 billion, and (ii) adjusted operating income of $2,141.6 million was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $18.4 million, resulting in operating income on a constant currency basis of $2,159.9 million. For the six months ended March 31, 2025, in the International Healthcare Solutions segment, (i) revenue of $14.6 billion was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $574.4 million, resulting in revenue on a constant currency basis of $15.2 billion, and (ii) operating income of $341.4 million was negatively impacted by foreign currency translation of $18.4 million, resulting in operating income on a constant currency basis of $359.8 million.
In addition, the Company has provided non-GAAP fiscal year 2025 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.
