Cardinal Health Reports Third-Quarter Results
05/03/2012
- Revenue increases 3 percent to $26.9 billion
- Operating earnings increase of 18 percent to $527 million, or 6 percent to $524 million on a non-GAAP basis(1)
- Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations increase 34 percent to $0.95, or 16 percent to $0.94 on a non-GAAP basis
- Raises lower end of full-year outlook for non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations to a revised range of $3.15 to $3.20

DUBLIN, Ohio, May 3, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Cardinal Health today reported a 3 percent increase in fiscal 2012 third-quarter revenue to $26.9 billion and a 6 percent increase in non-GAAP operating earnings to $524 million. The company also reported a 16 percent increase in non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations to $0.94.

"We are pleased to report another solid quarter of revenue growth for both of our business segments, as well as continued strong growth in earnings per share," said George Barrett, chairman and chief executive officer of Cardinal Health. "Our Pharmaceutical segment continued its robust profit performance. Our Medical segment fundamentals showed continued momentum, but as anticipated, profit was negatively impacted by the cost of commodity inputs. However, we see the year-over-year impact of this dynamic subsiding in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 and into fiscal 2013."

The company raised the lower end of its guidance resulting in a revised range of $3.15 to $3.20 for fiscal 2012 non-GAAP diluted earnings per share from continuing operations.

A reduction in the fair value of the P4 Healthcare acquisition earn-out liability positively impacted third-quarter fiscal 2012 GAAP operating earnings by $55 million and GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations by $0.10 per share. Third-quarter fiscal 2012 GAAP and Non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations benefited from a lower tax rate than the prior year's higher-than-usual tax rate.

SEGMENT RESULTS

Pharmaceutical segment

Revenue for the Pharmaceutical segment increased 3 percent to $24.5 billion, driven by growth from existing customers. Segment profit increased 9 percent to $446 million, due to the strong performance of generic programs including the impact of new and recently launched items.

Medical segment

Revenue for the Medical segment increased 8 percent to $2.4 billion, driven by growth from existing customers, including strong sales of preferred products. Segment profit declined 17 percent to $89 million, due to the anticipated negative impact of commodity price increases and increased information system expenses, primarily related to the launch of the company's Medical Business Transformation. The decline was partially offset by the positive margin impact of higher preferred products volume.

Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Financial Measures 


We present non-GAAP earnings from continuing operations and non-GAAP effective tax rate from continuing operations (and presentations derived from these financial measures, including per share calculations) on a forward-looking basis. The most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures are earnings from continuing operations and effective tax rate from continuing operations. We are unable to provide a quantitative reconciliation of these forward-looking non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures because we cannot reliably forecast restructuring and employee severance, acquisition-related costs (including amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and changes in the fair value of contingent consideration obligations), impairments and loss on disposal of assets, litigation (recoveries)/charges, net, and other spin-off costs, which are difficult to predict and estimate and are primarily dependent on future events. Please note that the unavailable reconciling items could significantly impact our future financial results.

CARDINAL HEALTH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES







Use of Non-GAAP Measures








This earnings release contains financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").  In general, the measures exclude items and charges that (i) management does not believe reflect Cardinal Health, Inc.'s (the "Company") core business and relate more to strategic, multi-year corporate activities; or (ii) relate to activities or actions that may have occurred over multiple or in prior periods without predictable trends.  Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures internally to evaluate the Company's performance, evaluate the balance sheet, engage in financial and operational planning and determine incentive compensation.












Management provides these non-GAAP financial measures to investors as supplemental metrics to assist readers in assessing the effects of items and events on its financial and operating results and in comparing the Company's performance to that of its competitors.  However, the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.










The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements set forth above should be carefully evaluated.









Definitions

Debt to Total Capital: debt divided by (debt plus total shareholders' equity).
