Filing receipts

Consolidated working capital increased at June 30, 2026 compared to March 31, 2026 primarily due to an increase in receivables, net, driven by higher sales and timing, an increase in inventories, an increase in cash and cash equivalents and a decrease in other accrued liabilities.

Within the segment, sales in the U.S. increased $3.7 billion primarily due to higher volumes from institutional and retail national account customers partially offset by branded pharmaceutical price decreases and branded to generic drug conversions.

2025 Oncology & Multispecialty revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased $3.6 billion or 33% compared to the same prior year period primarily driven by higher specialty pharmaceutical sales in provider solutions.
