Filing receipts
“The cash provided by the above items was offset in part by the following: • An increase in accounts receivable of $1.0 billion primarily due to an increase in sales and the timing of scheduled payments from our customers; • An increase in inventories of $0.9 billion to support the increase in business volume; and • A decrease in accrued expenses of $0.3 billion primarily due to the payment of accrued liabilities that were on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2024, including $0.2 billion of opioid litigation settlement payments.”
“The cash provided by the above items was offset in part by the following: • An increase in inventories of $1.0 billion to support the increase in business volume; • An increase in accounts receivable of $0.8 billion primarily due to an increase in sales and the timing of scheduled payments from our customers; and • A decrease in accrued expenses of $0.2 billion primarily due to the payment of accrued liabilities that were on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2025.”
“Healthcare Solutions’ gross profit margin of 2.96% in the current year nine-month period increased 52 basis points from the prior year nine-month period primarily due to the January 2025 acquisition of RCA and the February 2026 acquisition of OneOncology, offset in part by higher sales of GLP-1s, which have lower gross profit margins.”
