Revenues of $41.0 Billion for the Second Quarter, a 10.5 Percent
Increase Year-Over-Year
Second Quarter GAAP Diluted EPS of $1.29 and Adjusted Diluted EPS of
$1.94
Adjusted Diluted EPS Guidance Maintained at $6.45 to $6.65 for Fiscal
2018; Company Expects to be at Bottom of Range
VALLEY FORGE, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 2, 2018--
AmerisourceBergen Corporation (NYSE:ABC) today reported that in its
fiscal year 2018 second quarter ended March 31, 2018, revenue increased
10.5 percent to $41.0 billion. On the basis of U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP), diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $1.29
for the March quarter of fiscal 2018, compared to $1.86 in the prior
year quarter. Adjusted diluted EPS, which is a non-GAAP measure that
excludes items described below, increased 9.6 percent to $1.94 in the
fiscal second quarter.
AmerisourceBergen now believes adjusted diluted EPS for fiscal year 2018
will be at the bottom of its guidance range of $6.45 to $6.65,
reflecting growth of 10 percent versus last fiscal year. The Company
does not provide forward-looking guidance on a GAAP basis, as discussed
below in Fiscal Year 2018 Expectations.
“I am pleased with our performance in the March quarter as associates
and businesses within AmerisourceBergen continue to execute. Our
distribution businesses are creating significant value for our customers
as we grow volumes and help support their businesses in a dynamic
healthcare market,” said Steven H. Collis, Chairman, President and Chief
Executive Officer of AmerisourceBergen.
“Our updated outlook for fiscal 2018 reflects the strong performance of
our Pharmaceutical Distribution Services segment, helping to offset a
lower contribution from its PharMEDium business. We remain confident in
the value, efficiency and safety PharMEDium provides the healthcare
system and are committed to providing our customers with the highest
quality products and services,” Mr. Collis continued. “As we move
further into fiscal 2018, we are excited to begin realizing the benefits
of investments throughout AmerisourceBergen that further enhance the
value and efficiency we offer to our provider customers and manufacturer
partners. Our long-term relationships and unique portfolio of integrated
pharmaceutical services enable AmerisourceBergen to continue living its
purpose as we are united in our responsibility to create healthier
futures.”

In conjunction with incremental investments made in the second quarter
of fiscal 2018 relating to Profarma and the specialty joint venture in
Brazil, AmerisourceBergen began consolidating their operating results.
Below, AmerisourceBergen presents descriptive summaries of the Company’s
GAAP quarterly results as well as its adjusted (Non-GAAP) quarterly
results. In the tables that follow, GAAP results and GAAP to Non-GAAP
reconciliations are presented. For more information related to Non-GAAP
financial measures, including our fiscal year 2018 expectations, please
refer to the Supplemental Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial
Measures following the tables.
Second Quarter GAAP Results
- Revenue: In the second quarter of fiscal
2018, revenue was $41.0 billion, up 10.5 percent compared to the same
quarter in the previous fiscal year, reflecting a 10.4 percent
increase in Pharmaceutical Distribution Services revenue and a 12.6
percent increase in revenue within Other.
- Gross Profit: Gross profit in the fiscal
2018 second quarter was $1.3 billion, relatively flat compared to the
same period in the previous fiscal year, due to the negative impact of
PharMEDium's lower revenues and its facility remediation costs in the
current year quarter and a LIFO credit that benefited the previous
year period. There was no LIFO expense or credit in the fiscal 2018
second quarter. Gross profit as a percentage of revenue was 3.06
percent, a decrease of 32 basis points from the prior year quarter.
- Operating Expenses: In the second quarter
of fiscal 2018, operating expenses were $774.3 million, compared to
$631.4 million in the same period last fiscal year. The increase in
operating expenses was primarily driven by the acquisition of H. D.
Smith, consolidation of Profarma and the specialty joint venture in
Brazil, operating additional distribution centers in the current year
quarter and duplicate costs resulting from the implementation of new
information technology systems, as well as increased costs to support
our revenue growth.
- Operating Income: In the fiscal 2018
second quarter, operating income was $481.4 million versus $625.0
million in the prior year period.
- Other Loss (Income): In the fiscal 2018
second quarter, other loss included a $30.0 million impairment on a
non-customer note receivable related to a start-up venture.
- Interest Expense, Net:In the
fiscal 2018 second quarter, net interest expense of $48.6 million was
up 30.4 percent versus the prior year quarter, primarily due to the
new debt issued to finance the H. D. Smith acquisition.
- Loss on Consolidation of Equity Investments:
In the fiscal 2018 second quarter, a loss of $42.3 million was
incurred primarily relating to the recognition of unrealized foreign
currency translation losses in connection with the remeasurement of
equity interests in Profarma and the specialty joint venture in Brazil.
- Tax Rate: The effective tax rate of 21.9
percent for the second quarter of fiscal 2018 primarily reflects the
reduction in the U.S. federal income tax rate from 35% to 21% and the
benefit from stock option exercises.
- Diluted Earnings Per Share: Diluted
earnings per share was $1.29 in the second quarter of fiscal 2018
compared to $1.86 in the previous fiscal year’s second quarter.
- Diluted Shares Outstanding: Diluted
weighted average shares outstanding for the second quarter of fiscal
2018 were 222.3 million, a 0.5 percent increase versus the prior
fiscal year second quarter, due primarily to stock option exercises,
net of share repurchases.
Definition of Adjusted (Non-GAAP) Results
The comments below compare adjusted results, which exclude:
-
Gain from antitrust litigation settlements;
-
LIFO expense (credit);
-
PharMEDium remediation costs;
-
Acquisition-related intangibles amortization;
-
Employee severance, litigation, and other;
-
Loss on consolidation of equity investments;

In addition, we previously issued $600 million of 1.15 percent senior
notes that were repaid in May 2017 to fund our initial special share
repurchase program to mitigate the dilutive effect of the Warrants. The
interest expense incurred relating to this borrowing has been excluded
from the Non-GAAP presentation.
Second Quarter Adjusted (Non-GAAP) Results
- Revenue: In the second quarter of fiscal
2018, revenue was $41.0 billion, up 10.5 percent compared to the same
quarter in the previous fiscal year, reflecting a 10.4 percent
increase in Pharmaceutical Distribution Services revenue and a 12.6
percent increase in revenue within Other.
- Adjusted Gross Profit: Gross profit in
the fiscal 2018 second quarter was $1.3 billion, which was up 9.2
percent when compared to the same period in the previous year,
primarily due to the increase in gross profit in Pharmaceutical
Distribution Services, which includes the acquisition of H. D. Smith
and the consolidation of Profarma. Gross profit as a percentage of
revenue was 3.11 percent, a decrease of 4 basis points from the prior
year quarter.
- Adjusted Operating Expenses: In the
second quarter of fiscal 2018, operating expenses were $691.5 million,
an increase of 18.9% compared to the same period in the last fiscal
year. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenue in the fiscal 2018
second quarter were 1.69 percent, compared to 1.57 percent for the
same period in the previous fiscal year. The increase in operating
expenses was driven by the acquisition of H. D. Smith, consolidation
of Profarma and the specialty joint venture in Brazil, operating
additional distribution centers in the current year quarter and
duplicate costs resulting from the implementation of new information
technology systems, as well as increased costs to support our revenue
growth.
- Adjusted Operating Income: In the fiscal
2018 second quarter, operating income of $586.3 million decreased 0.4
percent from the prior year period. Operating income as a percentage
of revenue decreased 15 basis points to 1.43 percent in the fiscal
2018 second quarter compared to the previous fiscal year’s second
quarter.
- Adjusted Interest Expense, Net:In
the fiscal 2018 second quarter, net interest expense of $48.6 million
was up 38.4 percent versus the prior year quarter, primarily due to
the new debt issued to finance the H. D. Smith acquisition.
- Adjusted Tax Rate: The effective tax rate
for the second quarter of fiscal 2018 was 20.7 percent, down from 30.1
percent in the previous fiscal year’s second quarter, primarily driven
by a reduction in the U.S. federal income tax rate from 35% to 21%.
- Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share:
Diluted earnings per share was up 9.6 percent to $1.94 in the second
quarter of fiscal 2018 compared to $1.77 in the previous fiscal year’s
second quarter, driven by the benefit from U.S. tax reform.
- Diluted Shares Outstanding: Diluted
weighted average shares outstanding for the second quarter of fiscal
2018 were 222.3 million, a 0.5 percent increase versus the prior
fiscal year second quarter due primarily to stock option exercises,
net of share repurchases.
Segment Discussion
The Company's operations are comprised of the Pharmaceutical
Distribution Services reportable segment and other operating segments
that are not significant enough to require separate reportable segment
disclosure and, therefore, have been included in Other for the purpose
of reportable segment presentation. Other consists of operating segments
that focus on global commercialization services and animal health and
includes AmerisourceBergen Consulting Services (ABCS), World Courier
and MWI Animal Health (MWI).
Pharmaceutical Distribution Services Segment
Pharmaceutical Distribution Services revenue was $39.5 billion, an
increase of 10.4 percent compared to the same quarter in the prior
fiscal year. Segment operating income of $489.1 million in the March
quarter of fiscal 2018 was up 0.9 percent compared to the same period in
the previous fiscal year, primarily due to growth in revenues and gross
profit, including the acquisition of H. D. Smith, largely offset by
reduced sales at PharMEDium and the operating loss at Profarma.
Other
Revenue in Other was $1.6 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2018,
an increase of 12.6 percent compared to the same period in the prior
fiscal year, primarily due to the consolidation of the specialty joint
venture in Brazil and revenue growth from MWI, ABCS's growth in its
Canadian operations and World Courier. Operating income in Other
decreased 6.3 percent to $97.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal
2018. This decrease was primarily driven by performance at ABCS,
specifically the Lash Group, and was partially offset by increased
contributions from World Courier and MWI.

Fiscal Year 2018 Expectations
The Company does not provide forward-looking guidance on a GAAP basis as
certain financial information, the probable significance of which cannot
be determined, is not available and cannot be reasonably estimated.
Please refer to the Supplemental Information Regarding Non-GAAP
Financial Measures following the tables for additional information.
Fiscal Year 2018 Expectations on an Adjusted
(Non-GAAP) Basis
Based upon the Company’s performance in the first half of the fiscal
year, evaluation of current business expectations and lower than
previously anticipated operating income contributions from PharMEDium
and the Lash Group, AmerisourceBergen has updated its fiscal year 2018
financial guidance. The higher operating expense growth expectation
reflects the Company's current assumption that the PharMEDium
remediation costs should be excluded from cost of goods sold instead of
operating expenses. The Company expects:
-
Revenue growth in the range of 8 percent to 11 percent; and
-
Adjusted diluted earnings per share in the range of $6.45 to $6.65.
Additional expectations now include:
-
Adjusted operating expenses to increase between 8 percent to 10
percent;
-
Adjusted operating income growth to be flat;
-
Pharmaceutical Distribution Services segment operating income
growth to be flat;
-
Other, which is comprised of businesses focused on Global
Commercialization Services and Animal Health, operating income
decline in the range of down 2 percent to 4 percent;
-
Adjusted effective tax rate of between 22 percent and 23 percent;
-
Adjusted free cash flow to be approximately $1.35 billion to $1.6
billion;
-
Capital expenditures of approximately $325 million; and
-
Share repurchases will offset dilution from employee stock option
exercises.
AmerisourceBergen also continues to operate under the following working
assumptions regarding the pharmaceutical market:
-
Brand drug inflation to be in the range of 6 percent to 7 percent;
-
Generic drug deflation to be in the range of -7 percent to -9 percent;
-
Contributions from new generic launches similar to the prior year; and
-
No significant contributions from biosimilars.

both customers and suppliers resulting in increasing pressure to reduce
prices for our products and services; changes in pharmaceutical market
growth rates; changes in the United States healthcare and regulatory
environment, including changes that could impact prescription drug
reimbursement under Medicare and Medicaid; increasing governmental
regulations regarding the pharmaceutical supply channel and
pharmaceutical compounding; declining reimbursement rates for
pharmaceuticals; federal and state government enforcement initiatives to
detect and prevent suspicious orders of controlled substances and the
diversion of controlled substances; increased public concern over the
abuse of opioid medications; prosecution or suit by federal, state and
other governmental entities of alleged violations of laws and
regulations regarding controlled substances, and any related disputes,
including shareholder derivative lawsuits; increased federal scrutiny
and litigation, including qui tam litigation, for alleged violations of

affect the Company’s tax positions and/or the Company’s tax liabilities
or adverse resolution of challenges to the Company’s tax positions;
regulatory action in connection with the production, labeling or
packaging of products compounded by our compounded sterile preparations
(CSP) business; suspension of production of CSPs, including at our
Memphis 503B outsourcing facility; failure to realize the expected
benefits from our reorganization and other business process initiatives;
managing foreign expansion, including non-compliance with the U.S.
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, anti-bribery laws and economic sanctions
and import laws and regulations; declining economic conditions in the
United States and abroad; financial market volatility and disruption;
substantial defaults in payment, material reduction in purchases by or
the loss, bankruptcy or insolvency of a major customer; the loss,
bankruptcy or insolvency of a major supplier; changes to the customer or
supplier mix; malfunction, failure or breach of sophisticated
information systems to operate as designed; risks generally associated
with data privacy regulation and the international transfer of personal
data; natural disasters or other unexpected events that affect the
Company’s operations; the impairment of goodwill or other intangible
assets (including with respect to foreign operations), resulting in a
charge to earnings; the acquisition of businesses that do not perform as
expected, or that are difficult to integrate or control, including the
integration of H. D. Smith and PharMEDium, or the inability to capture
all of the anticipated synergies related thereto or to capture the
anticipated synergies within the expected time period; the effects of
disruption from the transactions on the respective businesses of the
Company and H. D. Smith and the fact that the transactions may make it
more difficult to establish or maintain relationships with employees,
suppliers, customers and other business partners; the disruption of the
Company’s cash flow and ability to return value to its stockholders in
accordance with its past practices; interest rate and foreign currency
exchange rate fluctuations; and other economic, business, competitive,
legal, tax, regulatory and/or operational factors affecting the
Company’s business generally. Certain additional factors that management
believes could cause actual outcomes and results to differ materially
from those described in forward-looking statements are set forth (i) in
Item 1A (Risk Factors) in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017 and elsewhere in that report

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION REGARDING
|
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
|
|
To supplement the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company uses the
following non-GAAP financial measures: (i) adjusted gross profit; (ii)
adjusted operating expenses; (iii) adjusted operating income; (iv)
adjusted interest expense, net; (v) adjusted tax rate; (vi) adjusted net
income attributable to ABC; and (vii) adjusted diluted earnings per
share. The non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to,
and not in lieu of, financial measures calculated in accordance with
GAAP. These supplemental measures may vary from, and may not be
comparable to, similarly titled measures by other companies.
The non-GAAP financial measures are presented because management uses
non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate the Company’s operating
performance, to perform financial planning, and to determine incentive
compensation. Therefore, the Company believes that the presentation of
non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplementary information
to, and facilitates additional analysis by, investors. The presented
non-GAAP financial measures exclude items that management does not
believe reflect the Company’s core operating performance as such items
are outside the control of the Company or due to their inherent unusual,
non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring, or non-cash nature. We have
included the following non-GAAP earnings-related financial measures in
this release:
- Adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross profit margin: Adjusted
gross profit is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the gain
from antitrust litigation settlements, PharMEDium remediation costs,
and LIFO expense (credit). Gain from antitrust litigation settlements
and LIFO expense (credit) are excluded because the Company cannot
control the amounts recognized or timing of these items. PharMEDium
remediation costs are excluded because they are unpredictable and
non-recurring expenses. Adjusted gross profit margin is the ratio of
adjusted gross profit to total revenue. Management believes that these
non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors as a supplemental
measure of the Company’s ongoing operating performance. The gain from
antitrust litigation settlements relates to the settlement of class
action lawsuits that have been filed against brand pharmaceutical
manufacturers alleging that the manufacturer, by itself or in concert
with others, took improper actions to delay or prevent generic drugs
from entering the market. The PharMEDium remediation costs relate to
costs incurred in connection with suspended production activities
following U.S. Food and Drug Administration inspections. LIFO expense
(credit) is affected by changes in inventory quantities, product mix,
and manufacturer pricing practices, which may be impacted by market
and other external influences.
- Adjusted operating expenses and adjusted operating expense margin: Adjusted
operating expenses is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes
acquisition-related intangibles amortization and employee severance,
litigation, and other. Adjusted operating expense margin is the ratio
of adjusted operating expenses to total revenue. The
acquisition-related intangibles amortization is excluded because it is
a non-cash item and does not reflect the operating performance of the
acquired companies. We exclude employee severance amounts that relate
to unpredictable and/or non-recurring business restructuring. We
exclude the amount of litigation settlements and other expenses that
are unusual, non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring or non-cash
in nature because we believe these exclusions facilitate the analysis
of our ongoing operational performance.
- Adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income margin: Adjusted
operating income is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the
same items that are described above and excluded from adjusted gross
profit and adjusted operating expenses. Adjusted operating income
margin is the ratio of adjusted operating income to total revenue.
Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful
to investors as a supplemental way to evaluate the Company’s
performance because the adjustments are unusual, non-operating,
unpredictable, non-recurring or non-cash in nature.
- Adjusted interest expense, net: Adjusted interest expense is a
non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the interest expense on our
$600 million of 1.15% senior notes that were repaid in May 2017 (the
“2017 Notes”). The 2017 Notes were issued to fund a special $650
million share repurchase program under which we purchased shares to
reduce the dilution related to the warrants that we issued in March
2013 to wholly-owned subsidiaries of Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc.
Management believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to
investors in evaluating the Company’s ongoing interest expense, net.
- Adjusted tax rate: Adjusted tax rate is a non-GAAP financial
measure that is determined by dividing adjusted income tax
expense/benefit by adjusted income before income taxes.
- Adjusted net income attributable to ABC: Adjusted net income
attributable to ABC is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the
same items that are described above and excluded from adjusted gross
profit, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating income, and
adjusted interest expense, net. In addition, the loss on consolidation
of equity investments, impairment on a non-customer note receivable,
the loss on the early retirement of debt and the one-time impact of
U.S. tax reform ("Tax Reform") are excluded from adjusted net income
attributable to ABC. Tax Reform includes a benefit from applying a
lower U.S. federal income tax rate to the Company's net deferred tax
liabilities as of December 31, 2017, offset in part by a one-time
transition tax on historical foreign earnings and profits through
December 31, 2017. Management believes that this non-GAAP financial
measure is useful to investors as a supplemental way to evaluate the
Company's performance because the adjustments are unusual,
non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring or non-cash in nature.
- Adjusted diluted earnings per share: Adjusted diluted earnings
per share excludes the per share impact of adjustments including gain
from antitrust litigation settlements; LIFO expense (credit);
PharMEDium remediation costs; acquisition-related intangibles
amortization; employee severance, litigation, and other; loss on
consolidation of equity investments; impairment on a non-customer note
receivable; the interest expense incurred in connection with the 2017
Notes; and the loss on early retirement of debt; in each case net of
the tax effect calculated using the applicable effective tax rate for
those items. In addition, the per share impact of Tax Reform is
excluded from adjusted diluted earnings per share. Management believes
that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors because it
eliminates the per share impact of the items that are outside the
control of the Company or that we consider to not be indicative of our
ongoing operating performance due to their inherent unusual,
non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring, or non-cash nature.
In addition, the Company has provided non-GAAP fiscal year 2018 guidance
for diluted earnings per share, operating expense, operating income, and
effective income tax rate that excludes the same or similar items as
those that are excluded from the historical non-GAAP financial measures,
as well as significant items that are outside the control of the Company
or inherently unusual, non-operating, unpredictable, non-recurring or
non-cash in nature. In addition, it has provided 2018 free cash flow
guidance. For fiscal year 2018, we have defined the non-GAAP financial
measure of free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities,
excluding other significant unpredictable or non-recurring cash payments
or receipts relating to legal settlements, minus capital expenditures.
The Company does not provide forward looking guidance on a GAAP basis
for such metrics because certain financial information, the probable
significance of which cannot be determined, is not available and cannot
be reasonably estimated. For example, LIFO expense (credit) is largely
dependent upon the future inflation or deflation of brand and generic
pharmaceuticals, which is out of the Company’s control, and
acquisition-related intangibles amortization depends on the timing and
amount of future acquisitions, which cannot be reasonably estimated.
Similarly, the timing and amount of litigation settlements is
unpredictable and non-recurring.
