Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
INDEX TO MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
GENERAL
Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, referred to as the “Financial Review,” is intended to assist the reader in the understanding and assessment of significant changes and trends related to the results of operations and financial position of McKesson Corporation together with its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company,” “McKesson,” “we,” “our,” or “us,” and other similar pronouns). This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying financial notes in Item 1 of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (“Quarterly Report”) and in Item 8 of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024 previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 8, 2024 (“2024 Annual Report”).
Our fiscal year begins on April 1 and ends on March 31. Unless otherwise noted, all references to a particular year means our fiscal year.
Certain statements in this report constitute forward-looking statements. See “Cautionary Notice About Forward-Looking Statements” included in this Quarterly Report.
Overview of our Business:
We are a diversified healthcare services leader dedicated to advancing health outcomes for patients everywhere. Our teams partner with biopharma companies, care providers, pharmacies, manufacturers, governments, and others to deliver insights, products, and services to help make quality care more accessible and affordable.
We report our financial results in four reportable segments: U.S. Pharmaceutical, Prescription Technology Solutions (“RxTS”), Medical-Surgical Solutions, and International. Our organizational structure also includes Corporate, which consists of income and expenses associated with administrative functions and projects, as well as the results of certain investments and operations. The factors for determining the reportable segments include the manner in which management evaluates the performance of the Company combined with the nature of individual business activities. We evaluate the performance of our operating segments on a number of measures, including revenues and operating profit (loss) before interest expense and income taxes.

FINANCIAL REVIEW (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
The following summarizes our four reportable segments. Refer to Financial Note 12, “Segments of Business,” to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for further information regarding our reportable segments.
-
U.S. Pharmaceutical** is a reportable segment that distributes branded, generic, specialty, biosimilar, and over-the-counter pharmaceutical drugs, and other healthcare-related products in the United States (“U.S.”). This segment also provides practice management, technology, clinical support, and business solutions to community-based oncology and other specialty practices. In addition, the segment sells financial, operational, and clinical solutions to pharmacies (retail, hospital, alternate sites) and provides consulting, outsourcing, technological, and other services.
-
Prescription Technology Solutions** is a reportable segment that combines automation and our ability to navigate the healthcare ecosystem to connect patients, pharmacies, providers, pharmacy benefit managers, health plans, and biopharma companies to address patients’ medication access, affordability, and adherence challenges. RxTS also offers prescription price transparency, benefit insight, and dispensing support services, as well as third-party logistics and wholesale distribution support across various therapeutic categories and temperature ranges to biopharma customers throughout the product lifecycle.
-
Medical-Surgical Solutions** is a reportable segment that provides medical-surgical supply distribution, logistics, and other services to healthcare providers, including physician offices, surgery centers, nursing homes, hospital reference labs, and home health care agencies. This segment offers national brand medical-surgical products as well as McKesson’s own line of high-quality products through a network of distribution centers within the U.S.
-
International** is a reportable segment that includes our operations in Canada and Norway, bringing together non-U.S.-based drug distribution services, specialty pharmacy, retail, and infusion care services. Our Canadian operations deliver medicines, supplies, and information technology solutions throughout Canada and include Rexall Health retail pharmacies. Our Norwegian operations provide distribution and services to wholesale and retail customers in Norway where we own, partner, or franchise with retail pharmacies. In the second quarter of fiscal 2025, we entered into an agreement to sell our Rexall and Well.ca businesses in Canada (“Canadian retail disposal group”). These divestitures are further described in the “Canadian Divestiture Activities” section below.
Canadian Divestiture Activities
On September 5, 2024, we announced an agreement to sell our Canadian retail disposal group. The adjusted purchase price is approximately $148 million. We recorded a charge of $643 million for the three and six months ended September 30, 2024 in total operating expenses to remeasure the Canadian retail disposal group to fair value less costs to sell. The remeasurement adjustment includes a $15 million loss related to the accumulated other comprehensive loss balances associated with the disposal group. The transaction is anticipated to close in the second half of fiscal 2025, pursuant to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals, as applicable.
As of September 30, 2024, we had $631 million of assets and $371 million of liabilities classified as “Assets held for sale” and “Liabilities h

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
We believe there has been no material change in our exposure to risks associated with fluctuations in interest and foreign currency exchange rates as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024.
McKESSON CORPORATION
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, with the participation of other members of the Company’s management, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report, and our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective based on their evaluation of these controls and procedures as required by paragraph (b) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15.
There were no changes in our “internal control over financial reporting” (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
**Item 1.**Legal Proceedings.
The information set forth in Financial Note 10, “Commitments and Contingent Liabilities,” to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and in Financial Note 17, “Commitments and Contingent Liabilities,” to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024, is incorporated herein by reference. Disclosure of an environmental proceeding with a governmental agency generally is included only if we expect monetary sanctions in the proceeding to exceed $1 million, unless otherwise material.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Other than factual updates discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, there have been no material changes for the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to the risk factors disclosed in Part I of Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2024.
**Item 2.**Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
Our Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of common stock. We may repurchase common stock from time-to-time through open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs, or by combinations of such methods, any of which may use pre-arranged trading plans that are designed to meet the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) of the Exchange Act. The timing of any repurchases and the actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors, including our stock price, corporate and regulatory requirements, tax implications, restrictions under our debt obligations, other uses for capital, impacts on the value of remaining shares, cash generated from operations, and market and economic conditions.
Refer to Financial Note 11, “Stockholders' Deficit,” to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a full discussion of the Company’s share repurchases for the three and six months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023.
