Third quarter revenues were $95.3 billion, an increase of 18% from a year ago, primarily driven by growth in the U.S. Pharmaceutical segment, due to increased prescription volumes, including higher volumes from retail national account customers and specialty products, and growth in the oncology platform.

Third quarter earnings per diluted share was $6.95 compared to $4.42 a year ago, an increase of $2.53, due to the prior year increase of the provision for bad debts related to the Rite Aid bankruptcy within the U.S. Pharmaceutical segment.

Third quarter Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share was $8.03 compared to $7.74 a year ago, an increase of 4%, primarily driven by strong operational growth and a lower share count, partially offset by a higher tax rate. Third quarter Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share also included pre-tax gains of $6 million associated with McKesson Ventures' equity investments, compared to pre-tax losses of $8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2024.

For the first nine months of the fiscal year, McKesson returned $3.1 billion of cash to shareholders, which included $2.8 billion of common stock repurchases and $254 million of dividend payments. During the first nine months of the fiscal year, McKesson used cash from operations of $1.7 billion, and invested $581 million in capital expenditures, resulting in negative Free Cash Flow of $2.2 billion.

Business Highlights
McKesson elected Lynne Doughtie and Dr. Julie Gerberding as New Directors on February 3, 2025, increasing the board to 13 members, 12 of whom are independent.
Lynne Doughtie brings accounting and finance expertise as the former Chair and Chief Executive Officer of KPMG U.S. Ms. Doughtie has depth of experience across various industries, including technology, healthcare, and financial services. Ms. Doughtie will serve on the Audit Committee and the Finance Committee.
Dr. Julie Gerberding brings extensive executive experience in the healthcare industry and public policy as the Chief Executive Officer of the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health. Previously, she served as the Executive Vice President and Chief Patient Officer at Merck & Co. and the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Dr. Gerberding will serve on the Compliance Committee and the Compensation and Talent Committee.
McKesson signed a definitive agreement to acquire an 80% controlling interest in PRISM Vision Holdings, LLC, a leading provider of general ophthalmology and retina management services. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including required regulatory clearance.
On December 30, 2024, McKesson closed the transaction to sell its Canada-based Rexall and Well.ca retail businesses.




U.S. Pharmaceutical Segment
Revenues were $87.1 billion, an increase of 19%, driven by increased prescription volumes, including higher volumes from retail national account customers and specialty products, and growth in the oncology platform.
Segment Operating Profit was $854 million. Adjusted Segment Operating Profit was $944 million, an increase of 14%, driven by growth in the distribution of specialty products to providers and health systems.

Prescription Technology Solutions Segment
Revenues were $1.4 billion, an increase of 14%, driven by increased prescription volumes in our third-party logistics and technology services businesses.
Segment Operating Profit was $219 million. Adjusted Segment Operating Profit was $235 million, an increase of 22%, driven by growth in access and affordability solutions.

Medical-Surgical Solutions Segment
Revenues were $2.9 billion, a decrease of 3%, driven by lower contributions from illness season vaccines and testing in the primary care channel.
Segment Operating Profit was $269 million. Adjusted Segment Operating Profit was $294 million, an increase of 4%, driven by operational efficiencies from the cost optimization initiatives, partially offset by lower contributions in the primary care channel.

International Segment
Revenues were $3.9 billion, an increase of 6%, driven by higher pharmaceutical distribution volumes in the Canadian business.
Segment Operating Profit was $111 million. Adjusted Segment Operating Profit was $124 million, an increase of 18%, driven by higher pharmaceutical distribution volumes in the Canadian business and the discontinued recording of depreciation and amortization on Canada-based Rexall and Well.ca retail businesses, which were divested during the quarter.

Fiscal 2025 Outlook
McKesson does not provide forward-looking guidance on a GAAP basis as the company is unable to provide a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking Non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measure, without unreasonable effort. McKesson cannot reasonably forecast LIFO inventory-related adjustments, certain litigation loss and gain contingencies, restructuring, impairment and related charges, and other adjustments, which are difficult to predict and estimate. These items are generally uncertain and depend on various factors, many of which are beyond the company's control, and as such, any associated estimate and its impact on GAAP performance could vary materially.

McKesson is raising and narrowing fiscal 2025 Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share guidance to $32.55 to $32.95 from the previous range of $32.40 to $33.00.

Fiscal 2025 Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share guidance includes $0.57 related to year-to-date gains associated with McKesson Ventures' equity investments.

Additional modeling considerations will be provided in the earnings call presentation.

Conference Call Details
McKesson has scheduled a conference call for today, Wednesday, February 5th at 4:30 PM ET to discuss the company’s financial results. The audio webcast of the conference call will be available live and archived on McKesson's Investor Relations website at investor.mckesson.com.

McKESSON CORPORATION
FINANCIAL STATEMENT NOTES

(1)Transaction-related expenses and adjustments for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2024 includes a net loss of $23 million (pre-tax and after-tax) and $666 million (pre-tax and after-tax), respectively, to remeasure assets and liabilities held for sale to fair value less costs to sell related to an agreement to sell certain of our Canadian businesses. Net charges (pre-tax and after-tax) of $11 million included within International, and $12 million included within Corporate expenses, net, and $604 million included within International, and $62 million included within Corporate expenses, net, respectively, for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2024. These net charges are primarily to remeasure assets and liabilities held for sale to fair value less costs to sell, including the effect of accumulated other comprehensive income balances associated with the disposal group, and are included under "total operating expenses" in the reconciliation of McKesson's GAAP operating results to adjusted results (Non-GAAP) provided in Schedule 2 of the accompanying financial statement tables.

(2)Transaction-related expenses and adjustments for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023 includes pre-tax gains of $2 million (pre-tax and after-tax) and $78 million ($58 million after-tax), respectively, related to fair value remeasurements of the contingent consideration liability recognized as part of our acquisition of Rx Savings Solutions, LLC. The gains, within Prescription Technology Solutions, resulted from remeasurement of the liability to fair value at the end of each reporting period based on the estimated amount and timing of projected operational and financial information and the probability of achievement of performance milestones. These pre-tax gains are included under "total operating expenses" in the reconciliation of McKesson's GAAP operating results to adjusted results (Non-GAAP) provided in Schedule 2 of the accompanying financial statement tables.

(3)Restructuring, impairment, and related charges, net for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2024 includes pre-tax charges of $32 million ($24 million after-tax) and $276 million ($204 million after-tax), respectively, primarily within Medical-Surgical Solutions, U.S. Pharmaceutical, and Corporate expenses, net. The three and nine months ended December 31, 2023 includes pre-tax charges of $4 million ($3 million after-tax) and $84 million ($63 million after-tax), respectively, primarily within Corporate expenses, net. These charges are included under "gross profit" and "total operating expenses" in the reconciliation of McKesson's GAAP operating results to adjusted results (Non-GAAP) provided in Schedule 2 of the accompanying financial statement tables.

(4)Claims and litigation charges, net for the nine months ended December 31, 2024 includes pre-tax charges of $114 million ($86 million after-tax) related to our estimated liability for opioid-related claims of a nationwide group of certain third-party payors. We recorded charges of $57 million ($43 million after-tax) within Corporate expenses, net and $57 million ($43 million after-tax) within U.S. Pharmaceutical. These charges are included under "total operating expenses" in the reconciliation of McKesson's GAAP operating results to adjusted results (Non-GAAP) provided in Schedule 2 of the accompanying financial statement tables.

(5)Other adjustments, net for the nine months ended December 31, 2024 includes a pre-tax credit of $203 million ($150 million after-tax), and for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023 includes pre-tax charges of $515 million ($381 million after-tax) and $725 million ($536 million after-tax), respectively, within U.S. Pharmaceutical related to the bankruptcy petition filing of our customer, Rite Aid Corporation (including certain of its subsidiaries, "Rite Aid") filed in October 2023. The charge within the second quarter of fiscal 2024 represents the remaining uncollected trade accounts receivable balance as of September 30, 2023 due to us from Rite Aid. After Rite Aid successfully emerged from bankruptcy in August 2024, we reassessed our initial estimates made in conjunction with the previously reserved prepetition balances including cash received during the period, resulting in the credit recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2025. Management believes the credit and charge are not reflective of allowances and estimated recoveries recorded in the normal course of operations and are related to Rite Aid's bankruptcy reorganization, and therefore are excluded from the determination of our adjusted results (Non-GAAP). These amounts are included under "total operating expenses" in the reconciliation of McKesson's GAAP operating results to adjusted results (Non-GAAP) provided in Schedule 2 of the accompanying financial statement tables.

(6)Other adjustments, net for the nine months ended December 31, 2024 includes a pre-tax charge of $43 million ($31 million after-tax) within U.S. Pharmaceutical related to a loss from one of the Company's investments in equity securities. This charge is included under "other income, net" in the reconciliation of McKesson's GAAP operating results to adjusted results (Non-GAAP) provided in Schedule 2 of the accompanying financial statement tables.




2 of 2
(7)During the nine months ended December 31, 2024, the Company recognized a pre-tax net gain of $100 million ($74 million after-tax) within Corporate expenses, net related to a recapitalization event of one of our investments in equity securities, which resulted in an increase to the carrying value of this investment. This gain was recorded in “Other income, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations (GAAP) provided in Schedule 1 of the accompanying financial statement tables.

McKESSON CORPORATION
SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION

In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding the Company's financial results as determined by generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), McKesson Corporation (the "Company" or "we") also presents the following Non-GAAP measures in this press release.

Adjusted Gross Profit (Non-GAAP): We define Adjusted Gross Profit as GAAP gross profit, excluding transaction-related expenses and adjustments, last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) inventory-related adjustments, gains from antitrust legal settlements, and other adjustments.

Adjusted Operating Expenses (Non-GAAP): We define Adjusted Operating Expenses as GAAP total operating expenses, excluding amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, transaction-related expenses and adjustments, restructuring, impairment, and related charges, claims and litigation charges, and other adjustments.

Adjusted Other Income (Non-GAAP): We define Adjusted Other Income as GAAP other income (expense), net, excluding amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, transaction-related expenses and adjustments, and other adjustments.

Adjusted Interest Expense (Non-GAAP): We define Adjusted Interest Expense as GAAP interest expense, excluding transaction-related expenses and adjustments related to net interest expense incurred from cross-currency swaps used to hedge the changes in the fair value of the Company's foreign currency-denominated notes resulting from changes in benchmark interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The foreign currency-denominated notes were previously designated as non-derivative net investment hedges of portions of the Company's net investments in its now-divested European businesses against the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on the translation of foreign currency balances to the U.S. dollar.

Adjusted Income Tax Expense (Non-GAAP): We define Adjusted Income Tax Expense as GAAP income tax benefit (expense), excluding the income tax effects of amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, transaction-related expenses and adjustments, LIFO inventory-related adjustments, gains from antitrust legal settlements, restructuring, impairment, and related charges, claims and litigation charges, and other adjustments. Income tax effects are calculated in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740, “Income Taxes,” which is the same accounting principle used by the Company when presenting its GAAP financial results.

Adjusted Earnings (Non-GAAP): We define Adjusted Earnings as GAAP income attributable to McKesson, excluding amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, transaction-related expenses and adjustments, LIFO inventory-related adjustments, gains from antitrust legal settlements, restructuring, impairment, and related charges, claims and litigation charges, other adjustments, as well as the related income tax effects for each of these items, as applicable.

Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share (Non-GAAP): We define Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share as GAAP earnings per diluted common share attributable to McKesson, excluding per share impacts of amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, transaction-related expenses and adjustments, LIFO inventory-related adjustments, gains from antitrust legal settlements, restructuring, impairment, and related charges, claims and litigation charges, other adjustments, as well as the related income tax effects for each of these items, as applicable, divided by diluted weighted-average shares outstanding.

Adjusted Segment Operating Profit (Non-GAAP) and Adjusted Segment Operating Profit Margin (Non-GAAP): We define Adjusted Segment Operating Profit as GAAP segment operating profit, excluding amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, transaction-related expenses and adjustments, LIFO inventory-related adjustments, gains from antitrust legal settlements, restructuring, impairment, and related charges, and other adjustments. We define Adjusted Segment Operating Profit Margin as Adjusted Segment Operating Profit (Non-GAAP) divided by GAAP segment revenues.

Adjusted Corporate Expenses (Non-GAAP): We define Adjusted Corporate Expenses as GAAP corporate expenses, net, excluding transaction-related expenses and adjustments, restructuring, impairment, and related charges, claims and litigation charges, and other adjustments.



2 of 3
SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION (continued)

Adjusted Operating Profit (Non-GAAP): We define Adjusted Operating Profit as GAAP income before interest expense and income taxes, excluding amortization of acquisition-related intangibles, transaction-related expenses and adjustments, LIFO inventory-related adjustments, gains from antitrust legal settlements, restructuring, impairment, and related charges, claims and litigation charges, and other adjustments.

The following provides further details regarding the adjustments made to our GAAP financial results to arrive at our Non-GAAP measures as defined above:

Amortization of acquisition-related intangibles - Amortization charges for intangible assets directly related to business combinations and the formation of joint ventures.

Transaction-related expenses and adjustments - Transaction, integration, and other expenses that are directly related to business combinations, the formation of joint ventures, divestitures, and other transaction-related costs including initial public offering costs. Examples include transaction closing costs, professional service fees, legal fees, severance charges, retention payments and employee relocation expenses, facility or other exit-related expenses, certain fair value adjustments including deferred revenues, contingent consideration and inventory, recoveries of acquisition-related expenses or post-closing expenses, net interest expense impact of hedging foreign currency-denominated notes, bridge loan fees and gains or losses on business combinations, and divestitures of businesses that do not qualify as discontinued operations.

LIFO inventory-related adjustments - LIFO inventory-related non-cash charges or credit adjustments.

Gains from antitrust legal settlements - Net cash proceeds representing the Company’s share of antitrust legal settlements.

Restructuring, impairment, and related charges - Restructuring charges that are incurred for programs in which we change our operations, the scope of a business undertaken by our business units, or the manner in which that business is conducted as well as long-lived asset impairments. Such charges may include employee severance, retention bonuses, facility closure or consolidation costs, lease or contract termination costs, asset impairments, accelerated depreciation and amortization, and other related expenses. The restructuring programs may be implemented due to the sale or discontinuation of a product line, reorganization or management structure changes, headcount rationalization, realignment of operations or products, integration of acquired businesses, and/or company-wide cost saving initiatives. The amount and/or frequency of these restructuring charges are not part of our underlying business, which include normal levels of reinvestment in the business. Any credit adjustments due to subsequent changes in estimates are also excluded from adjusted results.

Claims and litigation charges - Adjustments to certain of the Company’s reserves, including those related to estimated probable settlements for its controlled substance monitoring and reporting, and opioid-related claims, as well as any applicable income items or credit adjustments due to subsequent changes in estimates. This does not include our legal fees to defend claims, which are expensed as incurred. This also may include charges or credits for general non-operational claims not directly related to our ongoing business.

Other adjustments - The Company evaluates the nature and significance of transactions qualitatively and quantitatively on an individual basis and may include them in the determination of our adjusted results from time to time. While not all-inclusive, other adjustments may include: other asset impairments; gains or losses from debt extinguishment; and other similar substantive and/or infrequent items as deemed appropriate.

The Company evaluates the aforementioned Non-GAAP measures on a periodic basis and updates the definitions from time to time. The evaluation considers both the quantitative and qualitative aspects of the Company’s presentation of Non-GAAP adjusted results. A reconciliation of McKesson’s GAAP financial results to Non-GAAP financial results is provided in Schedules 2 and 3 of the financial statement tables included with this press release.

Free Cash Flow (Non-GAAP): We define free cash flow as net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less payments for property, plant, and equipment and capitalized software expenditures, as disclosed in our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. A reconciliation of McKesson’s GAAP financial results to Free Cash Flow (Non-GAAP) is provided in Schedule 6 of the financial statement tables included with this press release



3 of 3
SUPPLEMENTAL NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION (continued)

The Company believes the presentation of Non-GAAP measures provides useful supplemental information to investors with regard to its operating performance, as well as assists with the comparison of its past financial performance to the Company’s future financial results. Moreover, the Company believes that the presentation of Non-GAAP measures assists investors’ ability to compare its financial results to those of other companies in the same industry. However, the Company's Non-GAAP measures used in the press tables may be defined and calculated differently by other companies in the same industry.

The Company internally uses both GAAP and Non-GAAP financial measures in connection with its own financial planning and reporting processes. Management utilizes Non-GAAP financial measures when allocating resources, deploying capital, as well as assessing business performance, and determining employee incentive compensation. The Company conducts its businesses internationally in local currencies, including Canadian dollars, Euro, and British pound sterling. As a result, the comparability of our results reported in U.S. dollars can be affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We believe free cash flow is important to management and useful to investors as a supplemental measure as it indicates the cash flow available for working capital needs, re-investment opportunities, strategic acquisitions, share repurchases, dividend payments, or other strategic uses of cash. Nonetheless, Non-GAAP adjusted results and related Non-GAAP measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, nor superior to, financial results and measures as determined or calculated in accordance with GAAP.
