McKESSON REPORTS FISCAL 2008 FIRST-QUARTER RESULTS
• | Revenues of $24.5 billion, up 5% from the prior year. |
• | Earnings per diluted share of 77 cents, up 28%. |
• | Cash flow from operations of $432 million. |
• | Fiscal 2008 Outlook affirmed: earnings per diluted share of $3.15 to $3.30. |
SAN FRANCISCO, July 26, 2007 —McKesson Corporation (NYSE: MCK) today reported that revenues for the first fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2007, were $24.5 billion compared to $23.3 billion a year ago. First-quarter earnings per diluted share was 77 cents compared to 60 cents per diluted share a year ago.
“McKesson is off to another solid start for Fiscal 2008, continuing our positive momentum of the prior two years, with an especially strong performance in our Technology Solutions segment,” said John H. Hammergren, chairman and chief executive officer. “In our Distribution Solutions segment, our U.S. pharmaceutical distribution business grew solidly and achieved operating margin expansion. In Technology Solutions, revenues and operating profit were both up strongly due to continued progress across our healthcare information solutions business, including the first full quarter of contribution from our acquisition of Per-Se Technologies, Inc., and the timing of revenue recognition in our expanding disease management business.”
“Across McKesson, we continue to focus on growing operating profit by leveraging our revenue growth through a combination of operating efficiencies, acquisitions, increased sales of value-adding products and services to our customers and capital deployed for share repurchases.”
For the quarter, McKesson had cash flow from operations of $432 million. The company continues to execute a balanced capital deployment strategy designed to create additional shareholder value. During the first quarter, McKesson repurchased $257 million of common stock, leaving $743 million remaining on its current $1 billion share repurchase authorization.
“Based on our positive momentum, we are affirming our previous outlook that McKesson expects to earn between $3.15 and $3.30 per diluted share for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2008,” Hammergren concluded.
Segment Results
Distribution Solutions revenues were up 4% for the quarter. U.S. Healthcare direct distribution revenues grew 6% for the quarter despite the mid-May 2006 termination of a customer contract with annual sales of approximately $3.3 billion. Warehouse sales increased 2% in the quarter.
Canadian revenues increased 1% for the quarter, including a favorable currency impact of 2%, and medical-surgical distribution revenues were up 3% for the quarter. Both of these businesses had one less week of sales in this year’s first quarter.
Distribution Solutions gross profit of $822 million was up 7% from $770 million in the first quarter a year ago. The increase in gross profit for the quarter was due to an improved mix of higher-margin products and services, including sales of OneStop generics, which were up 34% in the quarter; the impact of our agreements with branded pharmaceutical manufacturers; and two anti-trust settlements totaling $14 million. The first quarter a year ago included a LIFO credit of $10 million.
Distribution Solutions operating profit was up 9% in the quarter. Positive results in our U.S. pharmaceutical distribution business more than offset weaker operating results in retail pharmacy systems and automation and medical-surgical distribution. Operating margin rate for the quarter was 1.43% compared to 1.37% a year ago.

In Technology Solutions, revenues were up 49% for the quarter, reflecting the impact of Per-Se revenues, growth in payor revenues, including recognition of $21 million of previously deferred revenue for a disease management contract, and continued growth in sales and implementations of software and imaging solutions for hospitals, clinics and physician offices. Services revenues were up 67% and software and software systems revenues were up 16%.
Technology Solutions operating expenses were up 34% for the quarter, reflecting the integration of Per-Se functions and continued investment in new product development.
Technology Solutions operating profit in the quarter was $100 million, up 178% from $36 million a year ago, driven in part by the impact of the Per-Se acquisition and the $21 million of disease management revenues recognized under a contract, for which related expenses were previously recognized as incurred. Operating margin rate was 13.70% for the quarter compared to 7.33% a year ago.
First-Quarter Corporate and Financial Highlights
The quarter included the following additional major highlights:
• | Since introducing an enhanced Health Mart® program a year ago at our annual Trade Show for independent pharmacy customers, our franchise count increased from 350 stores to almost 1,600 stores. This year’s Trade Show featured a new offering designed to increase front-end product sales developed through a unique partnership between McKesson and Procter & Gamble. |
• | McKesson and JPMorgan Chase formed a strategic relationship to offer an integrated set of electronic healthcare claim and payment processing solutions, beginning with the submission of the healthcare claim to the insurer, payment and detailed remittance back to the provider and an electronic statement to the patient. In addition, the relationship will support the management of payment, claim and enrollment content, and develop a single portal that can be accessed online by all key constituents along the revenue cycle, simplifying access to key data that is highly fragmented today. |
3
• | McKesson announced an agreement to acquire Awarix, Inc., and its enterprise patient care visibility system that provides color-coded, at-a-glance views of the hospital’s floor plan mounted throughout the facility. The system identifies and helps to eliminate the bottlenecks that delay treatment and extend patient stays, thereby driving a high-quality, efficient experience for each patient while providing real-time feedback to the care team for better management of capacity and patient throughput. |
• | In the KLAS Mid-Year Top 20 Report issued by KLAS Enterprises, LLC, McKesson had 19 products ranked in the Top Three in 24 categories, including nine products named as Category Leaders, up from 16 products in the Top Three a year ago. |
• | Operating profit a year ago included a $21 million charge in Distribution Solutions associated with McKesson’s investment in Parata Systems, $15 million of which was in gross profit and $6 million of which was in operating expense, and a $5 million restructuring expense in Technology Solutions. |
• | First-quarter results included $19 million in pre-tax share-based compensation expense associated with the implementation of FAS 123R, or 4 cents per diluted share. A year ago, this pre-tax expense totaled $8 million, or approximately 2 cents per diluted share. |
• | Results from discontinued operations in the first quarter totaled an after-tax charge of $1 million, associated with the September 2006 sale of our acute care medical-surgical business. |
