Frequently Asked Questions

The 8-K filing on May 5, 2016, primarily served to announce Cencora's (then AmerisourceBergen) earnings for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016. While the full details would be in the attached press release (Exhibit 99.1), the filing itself indicates that investors should review these results for insights into the company's performance during that period.

The filing explicitly states that the information furnished under Items 2.02 and 7.01, including the attached exhibits, is being furnished and shall not be deemed 'filed' for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor is it automatically incorporated into other filings unless specifically referenced.
