**Walgreens Boots Alliance Reports Fiscal 2025 Third Quarter Results** 

*Third quarter financial results* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Third quarter loss per share<sup>1</sup> was $0.20 compared to earnings
per share of $0.40 in the year-ago quarter. The decline in earnings per share was primarily driven by prior year after-tax gains related to fair value adjustments on
variable prepaid forward derivatives and a partial sale of the Company's equity method investment in Cencora, and higher tax expense in the current quarter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Adjusted earnings per share (EPS)<sup>2</sup> was $0.38 compared to
adjusted EPS<sup>2</sup> of $0.63 in the year-ago quarter. The decline in adjusted EPS<sup>2</sup> was primarily driven by a
higher adjusted effective tax rate<sup>2</sup>, higher incentive accruals, lower U.S. retail sales and lower equity earnings in Cencora, partly offset by cost savings within U.S. Retail Pharmacy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Third quarter sales increased 7.2 percent year-over-year to $39.0 billion, up 6.9 percent on a
constant currency basis.

*Fiscal 2025 guidance* 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Given the pending transaction, pursuant to which WBA will be acquired by entities affiliated with Sycamore
Partners, the company previously withdrew fiscal 2025 guidance.

DEERFIELD, Ill. — June 26, 2025 — Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc. (Nasdaq: WBA) today announced financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2025, which ended May 31, 2025.

Chief Executive Officer Tim Wentworth said:

"Third quarter results reflect continued improvement in our U.S. Healthcare segment and benefits from our cost savings initiatives, while we continued to see weakness in our U.S. front-end sales. We remain focused on our turnaround plan, which will require time, disciplined focus and a balanced approach to manage future cash needs with investments necessary to navigate an evolving pharmacy and retail environment."

**Overview of Third Quarter Results** 

WBA third quarter sales increased 7.2 percent from the year-ago quarter to $39.0 billion, an increase of 6.9 percent on a constant currency basis, reflecting sales growth in the U.S. Retail Pharmacy and International segments.

Third quarter operating income was $53 million compared to an operating income of $111 million in the year-ago quarter. Third quarter operating income included a non-cash impairment charge related to certain long-lived assets.

"Adjusted," "constant currency" and free cash flow amounts are non-GAAP financial measures. See the appendix to this release for a discussion of non-GAAP financial measures, including a reconciliation to the most closely correlated GAAP measure

------

Adjusted operating income<sup>2</sup> was $558 million compared to adjusted operating income<sup>2</sup> of $613 million in the year-ago quarter. Operating income and adjusted operating income<sup>2</sup> reflect higher incentive accruals, lower U.S. retail sales and lower equity earnings in Cencora, partly offset by growth in U.S. Healthcare and cost savings within U.S. Retail Pharmacy.

Net loss in the third quarter was $175 million, a decrease of $519 million compared to net earnings of $344 million in the year-ago quarter. The decline in net earnings was primarily driven by prior year after-tax gains related to fair value adjustments on variable prepaid forward derivatives and a partial sale of the Company's equity method investment in Cencora, and higher tax expense in the current quarter.

Adjusted net earnings<sup>2</sup> in the third quarter was $334 million, a decrease of $211 million compared to adjusted net earnings<sup>2</sup> of $545 million in the year-ago quarter, down 39.3 percent on a constant currency basis. The decline in adjusted net earnings<sup>2</sup> reflects a higher adjusted effective tax rate<sup>2</sup>, higher incentive accruals, lower U.S. retail sales and lower equity earnings in Cencora, partly offset by cost savings within U.S. Retail Pharmacy.

Loss per share in the third quarter was $0.20 compared to earnings per share of $0.40 in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted EPS<sup>2</sup> was $0.38 compared to adjusted EPS<sup>2</sup> of $0.63 in the year-ago quarter, reflecting a decrease of 39.6 percent on a constant currency basis.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $584 million in the third quarter, a $20 million decrease compared with the year-ago quarter. Operating cash flow in the current quarter was negatively impacted by $252 million of legal payments primarily related to opioid-related settlements. Free cash flow<sup>2</sup> was positive $336 million, a $2 million improvement compared to the year-ago quarter. Operating cash flow and free cash flow<sup>2</sup> reflect improvements in working capital, lower cash taxes and lower interest paid, partly offset by higher legal payments.

**Overview of Fiscal 2025 Year-to-Date Results** 

Sales in the first nine months of fiscal 2025 increased 6.3 percent from the year-ago period to $117.0 billion, an increase of 6.2 percent on a constant currency basis, primarily reflecting sales growth in the U.S. Retail Pharmacy and International segments.

Operating loss in the first nine months of fiscal 2025 was $5.8 billion compared to an operating loss of $13.1 billion in the year-ago period. Operating loss in the current period included a $3.0 billion non-cash impairment charge related to VillageMD goodwill and other long-lived assets, which resulted in a $1.9 billion charge attributable to WBA, net of tax and non-controlling interest, and a $2.4 billion non-cash impairment charge attributable to WBA, net of tax, primarily related to U.S. Retail Pharmacy goodwill. Operating loss in the year-ago period included a $12.4 billion non-cash impairment charge related to VillageMD goodwill, which resulted in a $5.8 billion charge attributable to WBA, net of tax and non-controlling interest, and a $455 million non-cash impairment charge related to certain long-lived assets in the U.S. Retail Pharmacy segment.

Adjusted operating income<sup>2</sup> was $1.9 billion, compared to adjusted operating income<sup>2</sup> of $2.2 billion in the year-ago period, reflecting lower U.S. retail sales, sale-leaseback gains in the prior year period and higher incentive accruals, partially offset by growth in the U.S. Healthcare segment and cost savings within the U.S. Retail Pharmacy segment.

------

Net loss for the first nine months of fiscal 2025 was $3.3 billion, a decrease of 41.5 percent compared to a net loss of $5.6 billion in the year-ago period, reflecting non-cash impairment charges and fair value adjustments on variable prepaid forward derivatives, partly offset by $1.3 billion in after-tax gains on settlements of variable prepaid forward derivatives related to the monetization of Cencora shares and gains on investments in BrightSpring.

Adjusted net earnings<sup>2</sup> decreased 38.8 percent to $1.3 billion, down 38.8 percent on a constant currency basis, reflecting an adjusted effective tax benefit<sup>2</sup> in the year-ago period due to the recognition of deferred tax assets in foreign jurisdictions and lower adjusted operating income<sup>2</sup> in the current period.

Loss per share in the first nine months was $3.81 compared to loss per share of $6.53 in the year-ago period, a decrease of 41.6 percent. Adjusted EPS<sup>2</sup> was $1.52 compared to adjusted EPS<sup>2</sup> of $2.49 in the year-ago period, reflecting a decrease of 39.0 percent on a constant currency basis.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $245 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2025, a $559 million improvement compared with the year-ago period. Operating cash flow in the current period was negatively impacted by $1.4 billion of legal payments primarily related to Everly and opioid-related settlements. In the year-ago period, operating cash flow was negatively impacted by $785 million in payments related to legal matters and a $386 million Boots Pension Plan Annuity premium. Free cash flow<sup>2</sup> was negative $506 million, a $557 million improvement compared with the year-ago period. Operating cash flow and free cash flow<sup>2</sup> reflect improvements in working capital, lower cash taxes and lower interest paid, partly offset by higher legal payments. Free cash flow<sup>2</sup> also benefited from a $384 million decrease in capital expenditures.

---

The U.S. Healthcare segment had third quarter sales of $2.1 billion, a decrease of $23 million.

CareCentrix sales increased 11.6 percent and Shields sales increased 24.8 percent.

Operating loss was $64 million, compared to operating loss of $220 million in the year-ago quarter, reflecting lower acquisition-related amortization and higher contributions from VillageMD risk-based business.

Adjusted EBITDA of $86 million improved by $63 million versus the prior-year quarter, reflecting improvement at VillageMD and growth at Shields.

**Conference Call and Fiscal 2025 Outlook** 

On March 6, 2025, WBA entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by entities affiliated with Sycamore Partners. The merger is currently expected to close in the third or fourth quarter of calendar year 2025, pending shareholder and regulatory approvals and other conditions to closing. Upon completion of the transaction, WBA common stock will no longer be listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, and WBA will become a private company. As is customary during the pendency of such a transaction, WBA will not host a conference call and webcast or provide financial guidance for fiscal year 2025 in conjunction with this quarter's report. In addition, WBA's previously issued guidance for full year fiscal 2025 should no longer be relied upon. For further details on quarterly performance, please refer to WBA's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended May 31, 2025, which is expected to be filed today with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

<sup>1</sup> All references to net earnings or net loss are to net earnings or net loss attributable to WBA, and all references to EPS or loss per share are to diluted EPS or diluted loss per share attributable to WBA.

<sup>2</sup> "Adjusted," "constant currency" and free cash flow amounts are non-GAAP financial measures. Measures identified as "comparable" constitute key performance indicators. See the appendix to this release for a discussion of non-GAAP financial measures, including a reconciliation to the most closely correlated GAAP measure, and key performance indicators. 

<sup>3</sup> The Company uses Adjusted operating income (loss) as its principal measure of segment performance as it enhances the Company's ability to compare past financial performance with current performance and analyze underlying segment performance and trends. The consolidated WBA measure is not determined in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, consolidated operating income. See the appendix to this release for a discussion of non-GAAP financial measures, including a reconciliation to the most closely correlated GAAP measure.

**WALGREENS BOOTS ALLIANCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES** 

**SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)** 

**REGARDING NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES** 

The following information provides reconciliations of the supplemental non-GAAP financial measures, as defined under the SEC rules, presented in this press release to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). The Company has provided the non-GAAP financial measures in the press release, which are not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP, as supplemental information and in addition to the financial measures that are calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

These supplemental non-GAAP financial measures are presented because management has evaluated the Company's financial results both including and excluding the adjusted items or the effects of foreign currency translation, as applicable, and believes that the supplemental non-GAAP financial measures presented provide additional perspective and insights when analyzing the core operating performance of the Company from period to period and trends in the Company's historical operating results. The Company also uses non-GAAP financial measures as a basis for certain compensation programs it sponsors. These supplemental non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for or as an alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the GAAP financial measures presented in the press release.

The Company does not provide a reconciliation for non-GAAP estimates to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis where it is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various items that have not yet occurred, are out of the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, such as unusual one-time charges, tax expenses, and material litigation expenses, and that would impact diluted net earnings per share, the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding GAAP financial measures.

*Constant currency* 

The Company presents certain information related to current period operating results on a "constant currency" basis, which is a specific non-GAAP financial measure. These amounts are calculated by translating current period results at the foreign currency exchange rates used in the comparable period in the prior year. The Company presents such constant currency financial information because it has significant operations outside of the U.S. reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar and such presentation provides a framework to assess how its business performed excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

------

*Comparable sales* 

For the Company's U.S. Retail Pharmacy and International segments, comparable sales are defined as sales from stores that have been open for at least twelve consecutive months without closure for seven or more consecutive days, including due to looting or store damage, and without a major remodel or being subject to a natural disaster, in the past twelve months as well as e-commerce sales. Comparable sales in constant currency exclude wholesale sales in Germany and sales from dispositions. E-commerce sales include digitally initiated sales online or through mobile applications. Relocated stores are not included as comparable sales for the first twelve months after the relocation. Acquired stores are not included as comparable sales for the first twelve months after acquisition or conversion, when applicable, whichever is later. Comparable sales, comparable pharmacy sales, comparable retail sales, comparable number of prescriptions and comparable number of 30-day equivalent prescriptions refer to total sales, pharmacy sales, retail sales, number of prescriptions and number of 30-day equivalent prescriptions, respectively. The method of calculating comparable sales varies across the retail industry and our method of calculating comparable sales may not be the same as other retailers' methods. With respect to the International segment, comparable sales, comparable pharmacy sales and comparable retail sales, are presented on a constant currency basis, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. Refer to the discussion above in "Constant currency" for further details on constant currency calculations.

The nine months ended May 31, 2024 comparable sales and prescriptions filled figures for the Company exclude the benefit of the leap day.

*Key Performance Indicators* 

The Company considers certain metrics, such as comparable sales (in constant currency), comparable pharmacy sales (in constant currency), comparable retail sales (in constant currency), comparable number of prescriptions, comparable 30-day equivalent prescriptions, and comparable prescriptions excluding immunizations to be key performance indicators because the Company's management has evaluated its results of operations using these metrics and believes that these key performance indicators presented provide additional perspective and insights when analyzing the core operating performance of the Company from period to period and trends in its historical operating results. These key performance indicators should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for or as an alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the GAAP financial measures presented herein. These measures may not be comparable to similarly-titled performance indicators used by other companies.

Amounts may not add due to rounding. All percentages and ratios have been calculated using unrounded amounts.

<sup>1</sup> These charges are recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses and Impairment of goodwill within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. The Company excludes these charges when evaluating operating performance because it does not incur such charges on a predictable basis and exclusion of such charges enables more consistent evaluation of the Company's operating performance. Impairment of goodwill, intangibles, and long-lived assets recognized in the nine months ended May 31, 2025 resulted from the interim goodwill impairment assessments for the VillageMD, U.S. Retail Pharmacy, and CareCentrix reporting units, as well as the intangible asset impairment for the Boots reporting unit and impairment of certain multi-year internal software development projects within the U.S. Retail Pharmacy segment. Impairment of goodwill, intangibles, and long-lived assets recognized in the nine months ended May 31, 2024 resulted from the interim goodwill impairment assessment for the VillageMD reporting unit and impairment of certain multi-year internal software development projects within the U.S. Retail Pharmacy segment. 

<sup>2</sup> Acquisition-related amortization includes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and stock-based compensation fair valuation adjustments. Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets includes amortization of intangible assets such as customer relationships, provider networks, trade names, trademarks, developed technology and contract intangibles. Intangible asset amortization excluded from the related non-GAAP measure represents the entire amount recorded within the Company's GAAP financial statements. The revenue generated by the associated intangible assets has not been excluded from the related non-GAAP measures. Amortization expense, unlike the related revenue, is not affected by operations of any particular period unless an intangible asset becomes impaired, or the estimated useful life of an intangible asset is revised. These charges are primarily recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. The stock-based compensation fair valuation adjustment reflects the difference between the fair value based remeasurement of awards under purchase accounting and the grant date fair valuation. Post-acquisition compensation expense recognized in excess of the original grant date fair value of acquiree awards are excluded from the related non-GAAP measures as these arise from acquisition-related accounting requirements or agreements, and are not reflective of normal operating activities. 

<sup>3</sup> Certain legal and regulatory accruals and settlements relate to significant charges associated with certain legal proceedings, including legal defense costs. The Company excludes these charges when evaluating operating performance because it does not incur such charges on a predictable basis and exclusion of such charges enables more consistent evaluation of the Company's operating performance. These charges are recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. 

------

<sup>4</sup> Footprint Optimization charges are costs associated with a formal restructuring plan. These charges are primarily recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. These costs do not reflect current operating performance and are impacted by the timing of restructuring activity. 

<sup>5</sup> Acquisition and disposition-related costs are transaction and integration costs associated with certain merger, acquisition and divestitures related activities recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. Examples of such costs include deal costs, severance, stock-based compensation, employee transaction success bonuses, and other integration related exit and disposal charges. These costs are significantly impacted by the timing and complexity of the underlying merger, acquisition and divestitures related activities and do not reflect the Company's current operating performance. In the three and nine months ended May 31, 2025, the Company recorded professional services and other transaction-related expenses of $15 million and $50 million, respectively, related to the merger agreement with Blazing Star Parent, LLC. As part of the amendment to the VillageMD Secured Loan executed in the three months ended November 30, 2024, Walgreen Co. and VillageMD agreed to terminate certain intercompany leases resulting in an early termination charge of $107 million incurred by VillageMD within the U.S. Healthcare segment and a corresponding gain recognized within the U.S. Retail Pharmacy segment. The impacts of the intercompany lease termination eliminate in consolidation. 

<sup>6</sup> Adjustments to equity earnings in Cencora consist of the Company's proportionate share of non-GAAP adjustments reported by Cencora consistent with the Company's non-GAAP measures. Adjustments are recorded to Equity earnings in Cencora within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. 

<sup>7</sup> The Company's U.S. Retail Pharmacy segment inventory is accounted for using the last-in-first-out ("LIFO") method. This adjustment represents the impact on Cost of sales as if the U.S. Retail Pharmacy segment inventory is accounted for using first-in first-out ("FIFO") method. The LIFO provision is affected by changes in inventory quantities, product mix, and manufacturer pricing practices, which may be impacted by market and other external influences. Therefore, the Company cannot control the amounts recognized or timing of these items. These charges are recorded in Cost of sales within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. 

<sup>8</sup> Transformational Cost Management Program charges are costs associated with a formal restructuring plan. These charges are primarily recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. These costs do not reflect current operating performance and are impacted by the timing of restructuring activity. 

<sup>9</sup> Total non-cash impairment charges for goodwill and long-lived assets that were adjusted from Operating income (loss) were $115 million and $5.8 billion in the three and nine months ended May 31, 2025, respectively. Total non-cash impairment charges for goodwill and long-lived assets that were adjusted from Operating income (loss) were $23 million and $13.6 billion in the three and nine months ended May 31, 2024, respectively. 

<sup>10</sup> Includes fair value gains or losses on the VPF derivative contracts and gains on VPF settlements. These charges are recorded in Other income (expense), net, within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. The Company does not believe this volatility related to the non-cash mark-to-market adjustments and associated settlement gains or losses on the underlying derivative instruments reflects the Company's operational performance. 

<sup>11</sup> Gains on the sale of equity method investments are recorded in Other income (expense), net within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. The Company excludes these charges when evaluating operating performance because these do not relate to the ordinary course of the Company's business. 

<sup>12</sup> Includes significant gains resulting from the change in classification of equity securities as well as the fair value adjustments recorded on investments in equity securities to Other income (expense), net, in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. In the three and nine months ended May 31, 2025, the Company recorded pre-tax gains of $10 million and $135 million related to the change in classification of its previously held equity method investment in BrightSpring to an investment in equity security held at fair value and subsequent related fair value adjustments. 

<sup>13</sup> Includes gains or losses related to the sale of businesses. These charges are recorded in Other income (expense), net, within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. The Company excludes these charges when evaluating operating performance because these do not relate to the ordinary course of the Company's business. 

<sup>14</sup> Includes interest expense on certain multi-year litigation settlements and interest expense on external debt to fund incremental contributions to the Boots Plan required to complete the Trustee's acquisition of a bulk annuity policy (the "Buy-In") from Legal & General. The payments and related incremental interest expense are not indicative of normal operating performance. 

<sup>15</sup> Adjustments to income tax provision (benefit) include adjustments to the GAAP basis tax provision (benefit) commensurate with non-GAAP adjustments and certain discrete tax items including U.S. and UK tax law changes and equity method non-cash tax. These charges are recorded in Income tax provision (benefit) within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. 

<sup>16</sup> Adjustments to post-tax earnings (loss) from other equity method investments consist of the proportionate share of certain equity method investees' non-cash items or unusual or infrequent items consistent with the Company's non-GAAP adjustments. These charges are recorded in Post-tax earnings (loss) from other equity method investments within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. Although the Company may have shareholder rights and board representation commensurate with its ownership interests in these equity method investees, adjustments relating to equity method investments are not intended to imply that the Company has direct control over their operations and resulting revenue and expenses. Moreover, these non-GAAP financial measures have limitations in that they do not reflect all revenue and expenses of these equity method investees. 

------

<sup>17</sup> In the three months ended November 30, 2024, the Company and VillageMD executed an amendment to the VillageMD Secured Loan that consolidated certain VillageMD obligations to the Company, modified certain interest and fee terms, and provided VillageMD with additional borrowing capacity. These intercompany credit facilities eliminate in consolidation. The Company applies the legal claim approach to the attribution of intercompany transactions to non-controlling interests. The amendment of the VillageMD Secured Loan increased the Company's claim on VillageMD's net assets resulting in a pre-tax non-controlling interest benefit. The amendment and related one-time benefit to the Company are not indicative of normal operating performance. 

<sup>18</sup> Due to the anti-dilutive effect resulting from periods where the Company reports a net loss, the impact of potentially dilutive securities on the per share amounts has been omitted from the calculation of weighted-average common shares outstanding for diluted net loss per common share. 

<sup>19</sup> Includes impact of potentially dilutive securities from unvested stock-based compensation programs in the calculation of weighted-average common shares, diluted for adjusted diluted net earnings per common share calculation purposes. For the three months ended May 31, 2025, this impact of potentially dilutive securities in the calculation of weighted-average common shares was approximately 4 million shares. Excluding the impact of potentially dilutive securities, weighted-average basic and diluted common shares outstanding were approximately 865 million shares.

<sup>1</sup> The Company reconciles Adjusted EBITDA for the U.S. Healthcare segment to Operating loss as the closest GAAP measure for the segment profitability. The Company does not measure Net earnings attributable to Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc. for its segments.

<sup>2</sup> These charges are recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses and Impairment of goodwill within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. The Company excludes these charges when evaluating operating performance because it does not incur such charges on a predictable basis and exclusion of such charges enables more consistent evaluation of the Company's operating performance. Impairment of goodwill, intangibles and long-lived assets recognized in the nine months ended May 31, 2025 resulting from the interim goodwill impairment assessment for the VillageMD and CareCentrix reporting units. Impairment of goodwill, intangibles and long-lived assets recognized in the nine months ended May 31, 2024 resulted from the interim goodwill impairment assessment for the VillageMD reporting unit. 

<sup>3</sup> Acquisition-related amortization includes amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets and stock-based compensation fair valuation adjustments. Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets includes amortization of intangible assets such as customer relationships, provider networks, trade names, trademarks, developed technology and contract intangibles. Intangible asset amortization excluded from the related non-GAAP measure represents the entire amount recorded within the Company's GAAP financial statements. The revenue generated by the associated intangible assets has not been excluded from the related non-GAAP measures. Amortization expense, unlike the related revenue, is not affected by operations of any particular period unless an intangible asset becomes impaired, or the estimated useful life of an intangible asset is revised. These charges are primarily recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. The stock-based compensation fair valuation adjustment reflects the difference between the fair value based remeasurement of awards under purchase accounting and the grant date fair valuation. Post-acquisition compensation expense recognized in excess of the original grant date fair value of acquiree awards are excluded from the related non-GAAP measures as these arise from acquisition-related accounting requirements or agreements, and are not reflective of normal operating activities. 

<sup>4</sup> Acquisition and disposition-related costs are transaction and integration costs associated with certain merger, acquisition and divestitures related activities recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. Examples of such costs include deal costs, severance, stock-based compensation, employee transaction success bonuses, and other integration related exit and disposal charges. These costs are significantly impacted by the timing and complexity of the underlying merger, acquisition and divestitures related activities and do not reflect the Company's current operating performance. As part of the amendment to the VillageMD Secured Loan executed in the three months ended November 30, 2024, Walgreen Co. and VillageMD agreed to terminate certain intercompany leases resulting in an early termination charge of $107 million incurred by VillageMD within the U.S. Healthcare segment and a corresponding gain recognized within the U.S. Retail Pharmacy segment. The impacts of the intercompany lease termination eliminate in consolidation. 

<sup>5</sup> Certain legal and regulatory accruals and settlements relate to significant charges associated with certain legal proceedings, including legal defense costs. The Company excludes these charges when evaluating operating performance because it does not incur such charges on a predictable basis and exclusion of such charges enables more consistent evaluation of the Company's operating performance. These charges are recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. 

<sup>6</sup> Footprint Optimization charges are costs associated with a formal restructuring plan. These charges are primarily recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. These costs do not reflect current operating performance and are impacted by the timing of restructuring activity. 

<sup>7</sup> Transformational Cost Management Program charges are costs associated with a formal restructuring plan. These charges are primarily recorded in Selling, general and administrative expenses within the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. These costs do not reflect current operating performance and are impacted by the timing of restructuring activity. 

<sup>8</sup> Includes GAAP stock-based compensation expense excluding expenses related to acquisition-related amortization and acquisition-related costs.

<sup>1</sup> During the three and nine months ended May 31, 2024, the Company made incremental pension contributions of $7M and $386M, respectively, to the Boots Plan as part of the Trustee's acquisition of a bulk annuity policy (the "Buy-In") from Legal and General. The payments are not indicative of normal operating performance. 

<sup>2</sup> Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities in a period less additions to property, plant and equipment (capital expenditures), plus acquisition related payments and incremental pension payments made in that period. This measure does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures as the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other contractual obligations or payments for future business acquisitions. Therefore, we believe it is important to view free cash flow as a measure that provides supplemental information to the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Cash Flows.
