    Fiscal 2016 Outlook: Adjusted Earnings per diluted share of $12.20 to $12.70.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 12, 2015 – McKesson Corporation (NYSE:MCK) today reported that revenues for the fourth quarter ended March 31, 2015 were $44.9 billion, up 19% compared to $37.8 billion a year ago. On the basis of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), fourth-quarter earnings per diluted share from continuing operations was $1.69 compared to $1.72 a year ago. Fourth-quarter GAAP earnings from continuing operations include a pre and post-tax charge of $150 million, or 64 cents per diluted share, related to a previously disclosed settlement agreement in principle with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) regarding McKesson’s monitoring and reporting of controlled substances orders.

For the fiscal year, McKesson had revenues of $179.0 billion compared to $137.4 billion a year ago, up 30% year-over-year. Full-year GAAP earnings per diluted share from continuing operations was $7.54 compared to $6.08 a year ago, up 24% year-over-year.

McKesson separately reports financial results on the basis of Adjusted Earnings. Adjusted Earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as GAAP income from continuing operations, excluding amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, acquisition expenses and related adjustments, certain claim and litigation reserve adjustments reflecting changes to the company’s reserves for controlled substance distribution claims and average wholesale price litigation matters, and Last-In-First-Out (“LIFO”) inventory-related adjustments. A reconciliation of McKesson’s GAAP financial results to Adjusted Earnings is provided in Schedules 2, 3 and 4 of the financial statement tables included with this release.

Fourth-quarter Adjusted Earnings per diluted share was $2.94, up 8% compared to $2.71 a year ago. Full-year Adjusted Earnings per diluted share was $11.11, up 29% compared to $8.60 for the prior year.

“Our fourth-quarter results wrapped up another year of outstanding earnings growth, led by strong execution in our Distribution Solutions segment,” said John H. Hammergren, chairman and chief executive officer. “For the full year, adjusted earnings per diluted share increased 29% from the prior year. Our strong financial and operating performance combined with our disciplined portfolio approach to capital deployment provides strong momentum for Fiscal 2016.”

For the full year, McKesson generated cash from operations of $3.1 billion, and ended the year with cash and cash equivalents of $5.3 billion. During the year, McKesson had internal capital spending of $545 million, spent $170 million on acquisitions, repurchased $340 million of its common stock and paid $227 million in dividends.

In addition, the Board of Directors has issued a new authorization for the repurchase of up to $500 million of common stock.

“In Fiscal 2015, we continued our strong track record of creating value for our shareholders with solid cash flow results and investments in the future growth of our business,” Hammergren commented.  “During the fourth quarter, we repurchased $340 million in common stock as part of our portfolio approach to capital deployment which includes maintaining our investment-grade ratings, while deploying our capital through a mix of internal investments, acquisitions, share repurchases and dividends.”

Segment Results

Distribution Solutions revenues were up 19% on a reported basis and 23% on a constant currency basis for the fourth quarter. For the full year, Distribution Solutions revenues were up 31% on a reported basis and 33% on a constant currency basis compared to the prior year.

North America pharmaceutical distribution and services revenues, which include results from U.S. Pharmaceutical, McKesson Canada and McKesson Specialty Health, were up 18% on a reported basis and 19% and constant currency basis for the fourth quarter, primarily reflecting market growth and growth from existing customers. For the full year, North America pharmaceutical distribution and services revenues were up 16% on a reported basis and 17% on a constant currency basis compared to the prior year.

International pharmaceutical distribution and services revenues were $5.9 billion for the fourth quarter and $26.4 billion for the full year, an increase of 3% for the quarter and 5% for the full year on the underlying results of Celesio on a constant currency basis. As previously announced, full-year and prior-year results for the Brazilian businesses, PanPharma and Oncoprod, are reported as discontinued operations.

Medical-Surgical distribution and services revenues were up 5% for the fourth quarter and full year driven by market growth.

In the fourth quarter, Distribution Solutions GAAP operating profit was $714 million and GAAP operating margin was 1.62%. Fourth-quarter adjusted operating profit was $1.1 billion and adjusted operating margin was 2.43%. For the full year, GAAP operating profit was $3.0 billion and GAAP operating margin was 1.73%. For the full year, adjusted operating profit was $4.2 billion, up 30% on a reported basis and 31% on a constant currency basis from the prior year, and adjusted operating margin was 2.38%.

“Distribution Solutions had another outstanding year with strong performance across the segment. We continue to deliver tremendous value for our customers by developing solutions that help drive better business health. We are proud to be a global leader in healthcare services while remaining grounded in our tradition of operational excellence in everything we do,” said Hammergren.

Technology Solutions products and services revenues were down 10% for the fourth quarter and down 8% for the full year. Fourth-quarter and full-year Technology Solutions revenues were impacted by an anticipated year-over-year decline in our hospital software business, the planned elimination of a product line, and the previously disclosed wind down of our international technology business. This revenue decline was partially offset by growth in our other technology businesses.

In the fourth quarter, GAAP operating profit was $133 million and GAAP operating margin was 17.14%. Fourth-quarter adjusted operating profit was $143 million and adjusted operating margin was 18.43%. For the full year, GAAP operating profit was $438 million and GAAP operating margin was 14.27%. For the full year, adjusted operating profit was $486 million and adjusted operating margin was 15.84%.

“I am encouraged by the solid results in our Relay Health, Payer Solutions and Medical Imaging businesses for Fiscal 2015. At the same time, we continue to optimize our portfolio in Technology Solutions and focus on helping our customers use information technology strategically to enable better business, better care, and better connectivity,” Hammergren said.

Fiscal Year 2015 Reconciliation of GAAP Results to Adjusted Earnings

Adjusted Earnings per diluted share of $11.11 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015 excludes the following GAAP items:

 

    Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets of $1.43 per diluted share.

 

    Acquisition expenses and related adjustments of 63 cents per diluted share.

 

    Certain claim and litigation reserve adjustments of 64 cents per diluted share.

 

    LIFO inventory-related adjustments of 87 cents per diluted share.

Fiscal Year 2016 Outlook

“Our Fiscal 2016 guidance reflects strong growth across our broad portfolio of businesses. McKesson expects Adjusted Earnings per diluted share of $12.20 to $12.70 for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2016, representing 12% to 16% growth year-over-year on a constant currency basis,” Hammergren concluded.

Key Assumptions for Fiscal Year 2016 Outlook

The Fiscal 2016 outlook is based on the following key assumptions and is also subject to the Risk Factors outlined below:

 

    Distribution Solutions revenue growth is expected to increase by mid-single digits driven by market growth.

 

    We expect North America pharmaceutical distribution and services will deliver high-single digit revenue growth in Fiscal 2016 compared to Fiscal 2015.

 

    International pharmaceutical and distribution services revenues are expected to be flat year-over-year on a constant currency basis.

 

    Medical-Surgical distribution and services is expected to deliver mid-single digit revenue growth in Fiscal 2016 compared to Fiscal 2015.

 

    Fiscal 2016 branded drug price trends in the U.S. market are expected to be similar to those we experienced in Fiscal 2015.

 

    Price trends on generic drugs outside an exclusivity period, in the U.S. market, are expected to be slightly below those we experienced in Fiscal 2015.

 

    We expect the profit contribution from the launch of new oral generic pharmaceuticals in the U.S. market will decrease year-over-year.

 

    Technology Solutions revenue is expected to decline mid-single digits year-over-year driven by an anticipated revenue decline in our hospital software business and the pending sale of a business line during Fiscal 2016.

 

    The guidance range assumes a full-year adjusted tax rate of approximately 31.5%, which may vary from quarter to quarter.

 

    Property acquisitions and capitalized software expenditures should be between $600 million and $650 million.

 

5


    We assume that our ownership position in Celesio will be approximately 76% for Fiscal 2016.

 

    The guidance range assumes an exchange rate of $1.10 per Euro.

 

    Weighted average diluted shares used in the calculation of earnings per share are expected to be approximately 236 million for the year.

 

    Cash flow from operations is expected to be approximately $3 billion.

 

    Based on acquisitions announced as of March 31, 2015:

 

    We expect amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets of approximately $1.23 per diluted share.

 

    We expect acquisition expenses and related adjustments of 29 cents per diluted share.

 

    We expect LIFO inventory-related charges of 86 cents per diluted share.

 

    The Fiscal 2016 guidance range does not include any potential claim or litigation reserve adjustments, or the impact of any potential new acquisitions and divestitures, and impairments or material restructurings.

Adjusted Earnings

McKesson separately reports financial results on the basis of Adjusted Earnings. Adjusted Earnings is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as GAAP income from continuing operations, excluding amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, acquisition expenses and related adjustments, certain claim and litigation reserve adjustments, and Last-In-First-Out (“LIFO”) inventory-related adjustments. A reconciliation of McKesson’s financial results determined in accordance with GAAP to Adjusted Earnings is provided in Schedules 2, 3 and 4 of the financial statement tables included with this release.

****

Definitions related to Adjusted Earnings (Non-GAAP) Financial Information

Adjusted Earnings represents income from continuing operations, excluding the effects of the following items from the Company’s GAAP financial results, including the related income tax effects. The Company evaluates its definition of Adjusted Earnings on a periodic basis and will update the definition from time to time. The evaluation considers both the quantitative and qualitative aspect of the Company’s presentation of Adjusted Earnings.

Amortization of acquisition-related intangibles - Amortization expense of acquired intangible assets purchased in connection with business acquisitions by the Company.

Acquisition expenses and related adjustments - Transaction and integration expenses that are directly related to business acquisitions by the Company. Examples include transaction closing costs, professional service fees, restructuring or severance charges, retention payments, employee relocation expenses, facility or other exit-related expenses, recoveries of acquisition-related expenses or post-closing expenses, bridge loan fees, gains or losses related to foreign currency contracts, and gains or losses on business combinations.

Claim and litigation reserve adjustments - Adjustments to the Company’s reserves, including accrued interest, for estimated probable losses for its Controlled Substance Distribution Claims and the Average Wholesale Price litigation matters, as such terms are defined in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2015.

LIFO-related adjustments - Last-In-First-Out (“LIFO”) inventory-related adjustments.

Income taxes on Adjusted Earnings 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.

The Company believes the presentation of non-GAAP measures such as Adjusted Earnings provides useful supplemental information to investors with regard to its core 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 Adjusted Earnings assists investors’ ability to compare its financial results to those of other companies in the same industry. However, the Company’s Adjusted Earnings measure may be defined and calculated differently by other companies in the same industry.

The Company internally uses non-GAAP financial measures such as Adjusted Earnings in connection with its own financial planning and reporting processes. Specifically, Adjusted Earnings serves as one of the measures management utilizes when allocating resources, deploying capital and assessing business performance and employee incentive compensation. Nonetheless, non-GAAP financial results and related 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.
