Item 7.01    Regulation FD Disclosure.

Effective September 30, 2017, AmerisourceBergen Corporation (the "Company") combined the legacy AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation and AmerisourceBergen Specialty Group operating segments into a single operating segment, Pharmaceutical Distribution Services. In addition, in connection with the completion of this reorganization, the Company's non-title third party logistics business, which was included within the Pharmaceutical Distribution Services reportable segment, was combined with the World Courier operating segment in Other, while the AmerisourceBergen Consulting Services distribution business (previously included in Other) is now included in the Pharmaceutical Distribution Services reportable segment. The Company revised its previously-reported segment disclosures to reflect the aforementioned changes to its reporting structure. These changes did not have a material impact to its historical reportable segment operating results.

In the attached Exhibit 99.1, which is incorporated herein by reference, the Company is voluntarily furnishing a supplemental disclosure of unaudited revised reportable segment information prepared on the same basis that the Company reported the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2017 for (a) the first, second and third fiscal quarters of fiscal 2017, and each fiscal quarter of fiscal 2016 and (b) the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016 to assist investors in analyzing the changes to its reporting structure.
 
The information contained in this Current Report, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
