Forward Guidance

As we look ahead to the balance of fiscal 2024, we expect to see continuing headwinds related to investments in associate wages and benefits, an increasing mix of our pharmacy and digital businesses which carry lower margins, and an increasingly competitive backdrop. We expect these headwinds to be partially offset by ongoing and new productivity initiatives.

Positive Outlook

  • Ongoing productivity initiatives
  • New productivity initiatives

Challenges Ahead

  • Continuing headwinds related to investments in associate wages and benefits
  • An increasing mix of our pharmacy and digital businesses which carry lower margins
