Fourth Quarter GAAP Results

Revenue: In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, revenue was $68.9 billion, up 12.7 percent compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, reflecting a 13.0 percent increase in revenue within U.S. Healthcare Solutions and a 9.5 percent increase in revenue within International Healthcare Solutions.

Gross Profit: Gross profit in the fiscal 2023 fourth quarter was $2.3 billion, a 13.5 percent increase compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year primarily due to increases in gross profit in both reportable segments and gains from antitrust litigation settlements in the current year quarter. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 3.27 percent, an increase of 2 basis points from the prior year quarter.

Operating Expenses: In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, operating expenses were $1.8 billion, up 16.0 percent from the same period last fiscal year, primarily driven by increases in distribution, selling, and administrative expenses, and amortization expense compared to the prior year quarter. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue in the fiscal 2023 fourth quarter were 2.58 percent compared to 2.50 percent for the same period in the previous fiscal year.

Operating Income: In the fiscal 2023 fourth quarter, operating income was $476.9 million, up 4.9 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 0.69 percent in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to 0.74 percent for the same period in the previous fiscal year.

Interest Expense, Net: In the fiscal 2023 fourth quarter, net interest expense of $60.9 million increased 18.3 percent versus the prior year quarter primarily due to increases in intra-period variable-rate borrowings and associated interest rates, 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 21.8 percent for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. This compares to 21.9 percent in the prior year quarter.

Diluted Earnings Per Share: Diluted earnings per share was $1.72 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, up 22.9 percent compared to the previous fiscal year fourth quarter.

Diluted Shares Outstanding: Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 were 203.4 million, a decrease of 3.1 percent versus the prior fiscal year fourth quarter primarily as a result of share repurchases.

Fourth Quarter Adjusted (non-GAAP) Results

Revenue: No adjustments were made to the GAAP presentation of revenue. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, revenue was $68.9 billion, up 12.7 percent compared to the same quarter in the previous fiscal year, reflecting a 13.0 percent increase in revenue within U.S. Healthcare Solutions and a 9.5 percent increase in revenue within International Healthcare Solutions. On a constant currency basis, International Healthcare Solutions' revenue was up 10.1 percent.

Adjusted Gross Profit: Adjusted gross profit in the fiscal 2023 fourth quarter was $2.3 billion, a 9.4 percent increase compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year due to an increase in gross profit in both reportable segments. Adjusted gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 3.34 percent in the fiscal 2023 fourth quarter, a decrease of 10 basis points when compared to the prior year quarter. The decrease was due to the decline of U.S. Healthcare Solutions' gross profit margin as a result of increased sales of products labeled for diabetes and/or weight loss in the GLP-1 class, which have lower gross profit margins, and lower sales of government-owned COVID-19 treatments, which have higher gross profit margins.

Adjusted Operating Expenses: In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, adjusted operating expenses were $1.5 billion, an increase of 10.2 percent compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year primarily due to an increase in distribution, selling, and administrative expenses compared to the prior year quarter. Adjusted operating expenses as a percentage of revenue in the fiscal 2023 fourth quarter was 2.18 percent, a decrease of 5 basis points when compared to the prior year quarter.

Adjusted Operating Income: In the fiscal 2023 fourth quarter, adjusted operating income of $801.0 million increased 8.0 percent from the prior year quarter due to a 9.4 percent increase in U.S. Healthcare Solutions' operating income and a 3.1 percent increase in operating income within International Healthcare Solutions. On a constant currency basis, the Company's adjusted operating income increased 8.2 percent compared to the prior year quarter. On a constant currency basis, International Healthcare Solutions segment operating income increased 4.0 percent. Adjusted operating income as a percentage of revenue was 1.16 percent in the fiscal 2023 fourth quarter, a decrease of 5 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 fiscal 2023 fourth quarter, net interest expense of $60.9 million increased 18.3 percent versus the prior year quarter primarily due to increases in intra-period variable-rate borrowings and associated interest rates, offset in part by an increase in interest income as a result of higher investment interest rates.

Adjusted Effective Tax Rate: The adjusted effective tax rate was 21.6 percent for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to 19.8 percent in the prior year quarter.

Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share: Adjusted diluted earnings per share was up 10.0 percent to $2.86 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $2.60 in the previous fiscal year fourth quarter.

Diluted Shares Outstanding: No adjustments were made to the GAAP presentation of diluted shares outstanding. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 were 203.4 million, a decrease of 3.1 percent versus the prior fiscal year fourth quarter primarily as a result of share repurchases.

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 Segment

U.S. Healthcare Solutions revenue was $61.9 billion, an increase of 13.0 percent compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year primarily 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 increased sales of specialty products to physician practices and health systems. Segment operating income of $632.8 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was up 9.4 percent compared to the same period in the previous fiscal year as a result of an increase in gross profit of 6.3%, offset in part by an increase in operating expenses of 4.1%.

International Healthcare Solutions

Revenue in International Healthcare Solutions was $7.0 billion in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, an increase of 9.5 percent compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year due to increased revenue across its businesses. Operating income within International Healthcare Solutions increased 3.1 percent to $168.2 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 due to growth at its global specialty logistics business and the January 2023 acquisition of PharmaLex, offset in part by a significant decline at its less-than-wholly-owned Alliance Healthcare subsidiary in Egypt. Cencora recently completed the divestiture of its stake in its subsidiary in Egypt and the results of the business will no longer be consolidated beginning in fiscal 2024. On a constant currency basis, International Healthcare Solutions revenue and operating income increased by 10.1 percent and 4.0 percent, respectively.

Summary Fiscal Year GAAP Results

In fiscal year 2023, GAAP diluted EPS was $8.53 compared to $8.04 in the prior fiscal year. Revenue increased 9.9 percent from last fiscal year to $262.2 billion. Gross profit increased 8.0 percent to $9.0 billion due to increases in gross profit in both reportable segments, and an increase in gains from antitrust litigation settlements, partially offset by an increase in LIFO expense in the current fiscal year. Operating expenses increased 11.6 percent primarily due to an increase in distribution, selling, and administrative expenses, amortization expense and restructuring and other expenses, offset in part by a litigation and opioid-related credit in the current fiscal year in comparison to an expense in the prior fiscal year and the prior fiscal year included a goodwill impairment. Operating income decreased 1.1 percent due to higher operating expenses, largely offset by higher gross profit. Diluted weighted average shares outstanding in fiscal 2023 were 204.6 million, down 3.1 percent from the prior fiscal year primarily due to share repurchases.

Summary Fiscal Year Adjusted (non-GAAP) Results

In fiscal year 2023, adjusted diluted EPS was $11.99 compared to $11.03 in the prior fiscal year. Revenue increased 9.9 percent to $262.2 billion. Adjusted gross profit increased 7.3 percent to $9.0 billion due to the increases in gross profit in both reportable segments. Adjusted operating expenses increased 9.2 percent to $5.7 billion primarily due to an increase in distribution, selling, and administrative expenses. Adjusted operating income increased 4.0 percent to $3.3 billion due to increases in gross profit in both reportable segments, offset in part by increased operating expenses. Adjusted operating income margin decreased by 8 basis points to 1.25 percent, primarily due to increased sales of sales of products labeled for diabetes and/or weight loss in the GLP-1 class, which have lower gross profit margins, and lower sales of government-owned COVID-19 treatments, which have higher gross profit margins, and a negative impact of foreign currency rates in comparison to the prior fiscal year. On a constant currency basis, revenue and adjusted operating income grew 10.9 percent and 6.0 percent, respectively.
