      DUBLIN, Ohio, Aug. 4, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

      • Fourth-quarter revenue increases 9 percent to $27 billion; Full-year revenue increases 4 percent to $103 billion
      • Fourth-quarter diluted earnings per share from continuing operations increase by 7 percent to $0.58, or 18 percent to $0.59 on a non-GAAP basis(1)
      • Fiscal 2011 diluted earnings per share from continuing operations increase by 69 percent to $2.74, or 20 percent to $2.67 on a non-GAAP basis
      • Fiscal 2012 outlook for non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of $3.04 to $3.19 based on new non-GAAP definition that excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets(2); fiscal 2011 diluted EPS under new non-GAAP definition is $2.80

      Cardinal Health today reported fourth-quarter fiscal 2011 revenues of $26.8 billion and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations of $0.59, up 18 percent. For fiscal 2011, revenues increased 4 percent to $103 billion, and non-GAAP diluted EPS increased 20 percent to $2.67.

      Outlook for non-GAAP diluted earnings per share from continuing operations in fiscal 2012 is $3.04 to $3.19 under the company’s new non-GAAP definition, which excludes approximately $0.14 of amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets in fiscal 2012. Fiscal 2011 non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations under this new non-GAAP definition is $2.80.

      “Fiscal 2011 was an outstanding year for us. Our organization executed against our key operational and financial objectives and took action on a number of important strategic priorities which will strengthen our long-term positioning,” said George Barrett, chairman and chief executive officer of Cardinal Health. “Our Pharmaceutical Segment finished the year with another excellent quarter, recording 30 percent profit growth over the prior year, which reflects strong growth from strengthened generic programs and solid contribution from the acquisitions we completed earlier in the fiscal year. And although commodity costs and sluggish utilization continued to challenge our Medical Segment, we are taking actions to mitigate their impact. The underlying performance of the business is strong, and the strategic initiatives we implemented this year position us to best serve our customers’ evolving needs.”

      SEGMENT RESULTS

      Pharmaceutical Segment

      Fourth-quarter revenue for the Pharmaceutical Segment, driven by recent acquisitions and sales to existing customers, increased 10 percent to $24.5 billion. Acquisitions contributed 6 percentage points to the quarterly revenue growth. Sales to non-bulk customers increased 20 percent to $13.8 billion. Segment profit for the quarter increased 30 percent to $295 million, reflecting the contribution from strong generics programs, as well as acquisitions, which contributed 12 percentage points to the segment profit growth in the quarter. Solid performance under our branded manufacturer agreements also was a positive driver.

      For the full year, revenue for the Pharmaceutical Segment increased 4 percent to $93.7 billion, and segment profit increased 26 percent to $1.3 billion.

      Medical Segment

      Fourth-quarter revenue for the Medical Segment increased 7 percent to $2.3 billion, primarily from sales growth to existing customers and the impact of transitioning the company’s distribution model with CareFusion from a fee-for-service-based arrangement to a traditional branded distribution agreement. Segment profit decreased 24 percent to $78 million, primarily driven by the negative impact of commodity price increases, certain inventory-related charges and investments made to enhance business IT systems, which were partially offset by the impact of increased volume to existing customers and net new business.

      For the full year, Medical Segment revenue increased 2 percent to $8.9 billion, and segment profit decreased 14 percent to $370 million.

      (2) In fiscal 2012, Cardinal Health will use a new definition of non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations.  The new definition excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets in addition to the items currently excluded.  The attached tables present the new non-GAAP diluted EPS from continuing operations and other non-GAAP earnings measures for fiscal 2011 and 2010 and a reconciliation of the differences between the new non-GAAP measures and their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP measures under the historical definition.

      (3) Non-GAAP operating earnings: Operating earnings excluding (1) restructuring and employee severance, (2) acquisition-related costs, (3) impairments and loss on sale of assets, (4) litigation (recoveries)/charges, net, and (5) Other Spinoff Costs included within distribution, selling, general and administrative expenses.

      (4) Non-GAAP earnings from continuing operations:  Earnings from continuing operations excluding (1) restructuring and employee severance, (2) acquisition-related costs, (3) impairments and loss on sale of assets, (4) litigation (recoveries)/charges, net, (5) Other Spinoff Costs (as defined at the end of the attached tables), and (6) gain on sale of CareFusion stock, each net of tax.

      A reconciliation of the differences between these non-GAAP financial measures and their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is provided in the attached tables and at cardinalhealth.com.

      New Non-GAAP Effective Tax Rate(2)




      37.5%(4)














      The sum of the components may not equal the total due to rounding.

      (1) We apply varying tax rates depending upon the tax jurisdiction where the items are incurred.

      (2) The new non-GAAP effective tax rate is calculated by dividing the new non-GAAP provision for income taxes by the new non-GAAP earnings before income taxes and discontinued operations.

      (3) For FY11 the GAAP effective tax rate was 36.4% ($552/$1,518), and the non-GAAP effective tax rate was 37.5% ($565/$1,506) under the historical definition, and 37.2% ($585/$1,573) under the new non-GAAP definition.

      (4) For FY10 the GAAP effective tax rate was 51.6% ($625/$1,212), and the non-GAAP effective tax rate was 37.5% ($482/$1,286) under the historical definition, and 37.5% ($486/$1,296) under the new non-GAAP definition.


      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 under a new definition that excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, which we currently estimate to be $0.14 for fiscal 2012. 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 sale of assets, litigation (recoveries)/charges, net, and other spin-off costs, 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.

      CARDINAL HEALTH, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

      RECONCILIATION OF SEGMENT PROFIT TO ADJUSTED SEGMENT PROFIT


      Note:  Beginning in fiscal 2012, we will use a new measure for computing segment profit.  The new measure excludes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets in addition to the items currently excluded from segment profit.  The tables below present segment profit as historically presented as well as segment profit adjusted to exclude amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets for each quarter and full year of fiscal 2011 and 2010.
