Summary
Cencora, Inc. (formerly AmerisourceBergen Corporation) reported solid revenue growth of 12.5% in the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, reaching $60.1 billion. This growth was primarily driven by the strategic acquisition of Alliance Healthcare in June 2021 and organic growth across both its U.S. and International Healthcare Solutions segments. Despite increased operating expenses, largely due to integration costs and a goodwill impairment, the company demonstrated robust segment operating income growth of 19.9%, indicating effective operational management post-acquisition. While the company continues to navigate significant legal liabilities, particularly related to opioid litigation, substantial progress has been made in resolving these matters with a comprehensive settlement agreement in place. Management anticipates continued revenue growth and maintains a strong liquidity position supported by operating cash flows and available credit facilities, allowing for ongoing investments in technology and capital expenditures, as well as continued shareholder returns through dividends and share repurchases.
