In the tables that follow, GAAP results and GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations are presented. 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.

Second Quarter GAAP Results

• Revenue: In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, revenue was $78.4 billion, up 3.8 percent compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, primarily due to a 2.9 percent increase in revenue within the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment and a 13.0 percent increase in revenue within the International Healthcare Solutions segment.

• Gross Profit: Gross profit in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $3.6 billion, a 17.3 percent increase compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, primarily due to the increase in gross profit in both reportable segments and a LIFO credit in the current year quarter compared to LIFO expense in the prior year quarter, offset in part by lower gains from antitrust litigation settlements in the current year quarter compared to the prior year quarter. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 4.58 percent, an increase of 52 basis points from the prior year quarter primarily due to the increase in U.S. Healthcare Solutions’ gross profit margin as a result of the February 2026 acquisition of OneOncology, offset in part by higher sales of GLP-1s, which have lower gross profit margins.

• Operating Expenses: In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, operating expenses were $2.4 billion, a 20.9 percent increase compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year. This increase was primarily driven by higher expenses as a result of the February 2026 acquisition of OneOncology.

• Operating Income: In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, operating income was $1.1 billion, an increase of 10.3 percent compared to the same quarter 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 1.46 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to 1.37 percent in the prior year quarter.

• Other Income, Net: In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, in connection with the acquisition of OneOncology, the Company recorded a gain of $1.1 billion on the remeasurement of its equity method investment and the extinguishment of the put option liability related to its previously held investment in OneOncology.

• Interest Expense, Net: In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, net interest expense was $140.5 million, an increase of $36.5 million from the prior year quarter primarily due to an increase in interest expense as a result of our issuance of senior notes and variable-rate term loans to finance the February 2026 acquisition of OneOncology and a decrease in interest income.

• Effective Tax Rate: The effective tax rate was 22.0 percent for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to 22.7 percent in the prior year quarter.

• Diluted Earnings Per Share: Diluted earnings per share was $8.40 in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, a 128.3 percent increase compared to $3.68 in the previous fiscal year’s second quarter. The increase in diluted earnings per share included a $1.1 billion remeasurement gain related to the OneOncology acquisition, which was recorded as “Other (income) loss, net.”

• Diluted Shares Outstanding: Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 were 195.4 million, an increase of 0.1 percent versus the prior year second quarter.

Second Quarter Adjusted (non-GAAP) Results

• Revenue: No adjustments were made to the GAAP presentation of revenue. In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, revenue was $78.4 billion, up 3.8 percent compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, primarily due to a 2.9 percent increase in revenue within the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment and a 13.0 percent increase in revenue within the International Healthcare Solutions segment.

• Adjusted Gross Profit: Adjusted gross profit in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $3.4 billion, a 15.7 percent increase compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year primarily due to increases in gross profit in both reportable segments. Adjusted gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 4.31 percent in the fiscal 2026 second quarter, an increase of 45 basis points from the prior year quarter primarily due to the increase in U.S. Healthcare Solutions’ gross profit margin as a result of the February 2026 acquisition of OneOncology, offset in part by higher sales of GLP-1s, which have lower gross profit margins.

• Adjusted Operating Expenses: In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, adjusted operating expenses were $2.1 billion, a 22.5 percent increase compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, primarily driven by higher expenses as a result of the February 2026 acquisition of OneOncology.

• Adjusted Operating Income: In the second quarter of fiscal 2026, adjusted operating income was $1.3 billion, a 6.0 percent increase compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year due to the increase in gross profit, offset in part by the increase in operating expenses. Adjusted operating income as a percentage of revenue was 1.61 percent in the fiscal 2026 second quarter, an increase of 3 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 second quarter of fiscal 2026, net interest expense was $140.5 million, an increase of $36.5 million from the prior year quarter primarily due to an increase in interest expense as a result of our issuance of senior notes and variable-rate term loans to finance the February 2026 acquisition of OneOncology and a decrease in interest income.

• Adjusted Effective Tax Rate: The adjusted effective tax rate was 18.9 percent for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to 20.8 percent in the prior year quarter primarily due to discrete tax benefits in the current year quarter.

• Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share: Adjusted diluted earnings per share was $4.75 in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, a 7.5 percent increase compared to $4.42 in the previous fiscal year’s second quarter.

• Diluted Shares Outstanding: No adjustments were made to the GAAP presentation of diluted shares outstanding. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 were 195.4 million, an increase of 0.1 percent versus the prior year second quarter.

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. Additionally, other businesses for which the Company is exploring strategic alternatives have been grouped together in Other. These businesses include MWI Animal Health, Profarma, U.S. Consulting Services, and certain components of PharmaLex.

U.S. Healthcare Solutions Segment

U.S. Healthcare Solutions revenue was $68.8 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, an increase of 2.9 percent compared to the same quarter of the previous fiscal year primarily due to overall market growth largely driven by unit volume growth, including increased sales of specialty products to health systems and physician practices and products labeled for diabetes and/or weight loss in the GLP-1 class. The revenue growth was offset in part by a decline in manufacturer prices related to certain brand pharmaceutical products, lower sales to our large mail order customer as a result of brand conversions, and the 2025 losses of an oncology customer and a grocery customer. Segment operating income of $998.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was up 5.6 percent compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year due to the increase in gross profit, as a result of the February 2026 acquisition of OneOncology and increased product sales, offset in part by the increase in operating expenses and the 2025 loss of an oncology customer.

International Healthcare Solutions Segment

International Healthcare Solutions revenue was $7.6 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, an increase of 13.0 percent compared to the previous fiscal year’s second quarter primarily due to growth in our European distribution business. Segment operating income in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $175.8 million, an increase of 13.7 percent, primarily due to increased operating income at our European distribution business and our global specialty logistics business. On a constant currency basis, International Healthcare Solutions revenue increased by 7.2 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the previous fiscal year’s second quarter, while segment operating income increased by 12.9 percent.

Other

Revenue in Other was $2.1 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, an increase of 5.1 percent compared to the previous fiscal year’s second quarter due to growth at Profarma and MWI Animal Health, offset in part by a decrease in sales at our consulting services businesses. Operating income in Other in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 was $91.6 million, a decrease of 1.3 percent, primarily due to lower operating income at our consulting services businesses, offset in part by an increase in operating income at MWI Animal Health.

Recent Company Highlights & Milestones

• Cencora and Covetrus, a global animal health technology and services company, announced that they entered into a definitive agreement under which MWI Animal Health and Covetrus will merge, creating a combined company offering a comprehensive animal health platform.
• Cencora announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire EyeSouth Partners’ retina business. Upon completion of the transaction, the affiliated retina physicians of EyeSouth Partners will join Cencora’s Retina Consultants of America (“RCA”), a leading management services organization.

Fiscal Year 2026 Expectations on an Adjusted (non-GAAP) Basis

Cencora is now updating its fiscal year 2026 financial guidance which reflects its strong full year fiscal 2026 operating income growth in the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment and updated operating income expectations in Other as a result of MWI now being accounted for as “held for sale”. Additionally, the Company has narrowed its expectations for interest expense and now expects an incrementally lower expected share count as it resumes opportunistic share repurchases.

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 Türkiye 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 Türkiye 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 (credit) expenses, net; acquisition and divestiture-related deal and integration expenses; restructuring and other expenses, net; and impairment of assets, including goodwill. 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 and divestiture-related deal and integration expenses and restructuring and other expenses, net that relate to unpredictable and/or non-recurring business activities. We exclude the amount of litigation and opioid-related (credit) expenses, net and the impairment of assets, including goodwill, 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 these do not reflect unusual, non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring or non-cash amounts or items that are outside the control of the Company.

• 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 remeasurement gain related to the OneOncology acquisition, gain (loss) on remeasurement of an equity investment, the gain (loss) on the currency remeasurement of the deferred tax asset relating to 2020 Swiss tax reform, and the loss on divestiture of non-core businesses 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 (benefits) 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 it does not reflect unusual, non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring or non-cash amounts or items that are outside the control of the Company.

• 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 it does not reflect unusual, non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring or non-cash amounts or items that are outside the control of the Company.

• 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); Türkiye highly inflationary impact; acquisition-related intangibles amortization; litigation and opioid-related (credit) expenses, net; acquisition and divestiture-related deal and integration expenses; restructuring and other expenses, net; the impairment of assets, including goodwill; the remeasurement gain related to the acquisition of OneOncology; (loss) on remeasurement of an equity investment; the gain (loss) on the currency remeasurement related to 2020 Swiss tax reform; and the loss on divestiture of non-core businesses, 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. 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. Below is a reconciliation of operating cash flows to adjusted free cash flows for the six months ended March 31, 2026:

Reconciliation of adjusted free cash flows
Operating cash flows	$(966.5)M
Capital expenditures	$(285.0)M
Free cash flows	$(1,251.5)M
Less gains from antitrust litigation settlements	$(28.7)M
Adjusted free cash flows	$(1,280.2)M

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. Below is a summary of revenue and adjusted operating income on an as-reported basis and on a constant currency basis for the three months ended March 31, 2026:

	Revenue	Adjusted Operating income
Consolidated
As reported	$78.4B	$1,263M
Impact of foreign currency translation	$(0.4)B	$(1)M
Constant currency	$78.0B	$1,262M
International Healthcare Solutions segment
As reported	$7.6B	$176M
Impact of foreign currency translation	$(0.4)B	$(1)M
Constant currency	$7.2B	$175M

In addition, the Company has provided non-GAAP fiscal year 2026 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.
