First quarter revenues were $97.8 billion, an increase of 23% from a year ago, primarily driven by growth in the U.S. Pharmaceutical segment due to increased prescription volumes from retail national account customers and growth in the distribution of oncology and specialty products, including contributions from acquisitions.
First quarter earnings per diluted share was $6.25 compared to $7.00 a year ago, a decrease of $0.75, due to a pre-tax increase to the provision for bad debts of $189 million within the U.S. Pharmaceutical segment related to the Rite Aid bankruptcy.
First quarter Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share was $8.26 compared to $7.88 a year ago, an increase of 5%, driven by strong operational growth across the business, partially offset by a higher tax rate and pre-tax gains of $110 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 associated with McKesson Ventures' equity investments.
For the first three months of the fiscal year, McKesson returned $671 million of cash to shareholders, which included $581 million of common stock repurchases and $90 million of dividend payments. During the first three months of the fiscal year, McKesson used cash from operations of $918 million, and invested $189 million in capital expenditures, resulting in negative Free Cash Flow of $1.1 billion. McKesson also used $3.4 billion of cash towards acquisitions during the quarter.
On April 1, 2025, McKesson completed the acquisition of an 80% controlling interest in PRISM Vision Holdings, LLC, a leading provider in general ophthalmology and retina management services.
On June 2, 2025, McKesson completed the acquisition of a 70% controlling interest in Core Ventures, a business and administrative services organization established by Florida Cancer Specialists Research Institute, LLC (FCS). FCS joined The US Oncology Network, growing its total number of providers to approximately 3,300.
On July 29, 2025, the Board of Directors declared a 15% increase to its quarterly dividend from $0.71 per share to $0.82 per share, marking the ninth consecutive year of increases.
On August 4, 2025, McKesson entered into a definitive agreement to sell its retail and distribution businesses in Norway to NorgesGruppen. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of required regulatory approvals.
U.S. Pharmaceutical Segment
Revenues were $90.0 billion, an increase of 25%, driven by increased prescription volumes from retail national account customers and growth in the distribution of oncology and specialty products, including contributions from acquisitions.
Segment Operating Profit was $727 million. Adjusted Segment Operating Profit was $950 million, an increase of 17%, driven by growth in core pharmaceutical distribution, including higher volumes from retail national account customers, and growth in the distribution of oncology and specialty products, including contributions from acquisitions.
Prescription Technology Solutions Segment
Revenues were $1.4 billion, an increase of 16%, driven by increased prescription volumes in the third-party logistics and technology services businesses.
Segment Operating Profit was $253 million. Adjusted Segment Operating Profit was $269 million, an increase of 21%, driven by higher demand for access solutions.
Medical-Surgical Solutions Segment
Revenues were $2.7 billion, an increase of 2%, driven by higher volumes of specialty pharmaceuticals.
Segment Operating Profit was $221 million. Adjusted Segment Operating Profit was $244 million, an increase of 22%, led by operational efficiencies from cost optimization initiatives.
International Segment
Revenues were $3.7 billion, an increase of 1%, driven by higher pharmaceutical distribution volumes in the Canadian business, partially offset by the divestiture of the Canada-based Rexall and Well.ca retail businesses.
Segment Operating Profit was $92 million. Adjusted Segment Operating Profit was $99 million, a decrease of 3%, a result of the fiscal 2025 divestiture of the Canada-based Rexall and Well.ca retail businesses, partially offset by higher pharmaceutical distribution volumes in the Canadian business.
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 its fiscal 2026 Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share guidance to $37.10 to $37.90 from the previous range of $36.90 to $37.70. The updated guidance range includes approximately $0.20 of Adjusted Earnings per Diluted Share accretion as a result of the anticipated held-for-sale accounting related to the agreement to sell its retail and distribution businesses in Norway to NorgesGruppen.
Additional modeling considerations will be provided in the earnings call presentation.
Conference Call Details
McKesson has scheduled a conference call for today, Wednesday, August 6, 2025, 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.
