CARDINAL HEALTH REPORTS STRONG Q4 AND FISCAL YEAR 2013 NON-GAAP
EARNINGS; PROVIDES FISCAL 2014 OUTLOOK
Non-GAAP1 diluted earnings per share from continuing operations increases 8 percent to $0.79 per share for the fourth quarter, and 16 percent to $3.73 per share for fiscal 2013
GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations are a loss of $1.72 for the fourth quarter, and decrease by 68 percent to $0.97 for fiscal 2013, driven by a Q4 non-cash impairment charge related to its nuclear pharmacy services division
Fiscal 2014 outlook for non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is $3.45 to $3.60, reflecting an increase in previously disclosed preliminary outlook
DUBLIN, Ohio, Aug. 1, 2013 - Cardinal Health today reported fourth-quarter fiscal year 2013 revenues of $25.4 billion and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations of $0.79, up 8 percent. Full fiscal year 2013 revenues decreased 6 percent to $101.1 billion, and non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations increased 16 percent to $3.73. Full-year EPS included a favorable tax settlement of $0.18 in the fiscal third quarter. GAAP EPS for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2013 were impacted by a goodwill impairment charge within the company's nuclear division.
“We are pleased to conclude our fiscal year 2013 with another strong quarter, growing our non-GAAP operating earnings by 10 percent,” said George Barrett, chairman and chief executive officer of Cardinal Health. “Both the Pharmaceutical and Medical segments delivered solid margin expansion in the quarter, as we continue to drive strong performance against our strategic initiatives.
“We exceeded our key financial goals for the year and accelerated the strategic repositioning we began several years ago. We enter fiscal 2014 with the financial strength, scale, customer and product portfolio, and organizational talent to lead in the rapidly evolving health care marketplace. Given our ongoing momentum and reflecting the expiration of the Walgreens contract, we are projecting fiscal 2014 non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations in the range of $3.45 to $3.60, an increase from our initial expectations.”
On a GAAP basis, fourth-quarter operating earnings and EPS from continuing operations were losses of $442 million and $1.72, respectively, due to a non-cash charge of $829 million ($799 million after tax) related to a goodwill impairment in the nuclear pharmacy services division. As a result of this impairment charge, GAAP fiscal 2013 diluted EPS from continuing operations decreased 68 percent to $0.97. The nuclear division has made solid contributions to the financial profile of Cardinal Health for over a decade. The decline in the market for certain products provided by this business, particularly the low-energy diagnostics market, has resulted in a lowering of its future financial outlook, leading to the non-cash write-off of the entire goodwill amount of the nuclear division.

SEGMENT RESULTS
Pharmaceutical Segment
As expected, fourth-quarter revenue for the Pharmaceutical segment decreased 6 percent to $22.8 billion due to the continuing impact of the fiscal 2013 Q2 expiration of the Express Scripts contract. The decrease was partially offset by revenues from expanded customer relationships. Segment profit for the quarter increased 11 percent to $395 million, driven by strong performance of generic programs and performance under branded manufacturer agreements, and was partially offset by the decline in the nuclear division.
For the full year, revenue for the Pharmaceutical segment decreased 7 percent to $91.1 billion, and segment profit increased 11 percent to $1.7 billion.

Medical Segment
Fourth-quarter revenue for the Medical segment increased 11 percent to $2.7 billion, fueled by the recent acquisition of AssuraMed. Segment profit for the quarter increased 31 percent to $104 million, driven by the acquisition of AssuraMed and performance of the preferred products portfolio, and was partially offset by continued procedural volume softness.
For the full year, Medical segment revenue increased 4 percent to $10.1 billion, and segment profit increased 12 percent to $372 million.

In conjunction with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013, we recently completed our annual goodwill impairment test, which we perform annually in the fourth quarter. As part of this annual test, we concluded that the entire goodwill amount of our Nuclear Pharmacy Services division was impaired, resulting in a non-cash impairment charge of $829 million ($799 million, net of tax) during the three months ended June 30, 2013. This impairment charge does not impact our liquidity, cash flows from operations, or compliance with debt covenants.

Due to the loss from continuing operations and net loss during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013, dilutive potential common shares have not been included in the denominator of the dilutive per share computation due to their antidulitive effect.

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, impairments and loss on disposal of assets and litigation (recoveries)/charges, net, 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.

The sum of the components may not equal the total due to rounding.
Days Sales Outstanding (DSO): trade receivables, net divided by (quarterly revenue divided by 90 days). Beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, we changed our method of calculating DSO in order to align it with the 90-day convention that we use in the calculation of Days Inventory on Hand and Days Payable Outstanding. Prior to this change we calculated DSO by dividing trade receivables, net by (monthly revenue divided by 30 days). In connection with this change, we have revised prior-year information to conform to the new method of calculating DSO.
Days Inventory on Hand: inventories, net divided by ((quarterly cost of products sold plus chargeback billings) divided by 90 days). Chargeback billings are the difference between a product’s wholesale acquisition cost and the contract price.
Days Payable Outstanding: accounts payable divided by ((quarterly cost of products sold plus chargeback billings) divided by 90 days).
Net Working Capital Days: days sales outstanding plus days inventory on hand less days payable outstanding. To conform to the new method of calculating DSO, we have revised prior-year information.

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.
