Guidance / Outlook

MCKESSON CORP · 2026-08-05 · Importance 79 · Surprise 76 · In source text

McKesson raised fiscal 2027 adjusted earnings per diluted share guidance to $44.20-$45.00 from $43.80-$44.60. The updated range implies 13%-15% growth versus the prior year and reflects strong first-quarter performance and what management described as sustainable operational momentum. The company does not provide GAAP earnings guidance because it cannot reasonably quantify LIFO adjustments, litigation contingencies, transaction expenses, restructuring, impairment, and other difficult-to-predict items.
