The Covid-19 downturn may be an opportunity for the three big U.S. drug distributors, UBS analyst Kevin Caliende says.

AmerisourceBergen Corp. reported Thursday fiscal second-quarter profit and revenue that rose above expectations, as the pharmaceutical distribution business got a boost from the COVID-19 pandemic, but the company lowered its full-year outlook. The drug products company also announced a new $500 million stock repurchase program and declared a regular quarterly dividend of 42 cents a share. Net income rose to $960.3 million, or $4.64 a share, from $27.1 million, or 13 cents a share, in the year-ago period, due primarily to tax benefits. Excluding non-recurring items, adjusted earnings per share rose 13.7% to $2.40, above the FactSet consensus of $2.27. Revenue grew 9.5% to $47.42 billion, above the FactSet consensus of $45.94 billion, as pharmaceutical distribution services revenue rose 9.3% to $45.6 billion to beat expectations of $44.44 billion. For 2020, the company cut its guidance ranges for adjusted EPS to $7.35 to 7.65 from $7.55 to $7.80 and for revenue growth to the low- to mid-single digit percentage range from the mid-to high-single digit range. The FactSet consensus for 2020 revenue of $188.8 billion implies 5.1% growth. The stock, which was still inactive in premarket trading, has gained 0.6% year to date while the S&P 500 has lost 11.8%.
