"Challenges and Earnings: Walgreens' Fiscal 2024 Q2 Results"
TL;DR
Walgreens Boots Alliance reported its fiscal 2024 second quarter results, with a 6.3% increase in sales to $37.1 billion, but also a $5.8 billion non-cash impairment charge related to VillageMD goodwill, resulting in a $6.85 loss per share. The company narrowed its full-year adjusted EPS guidance range to $3.20 to $3.35 due to a challenging retail environment in the U.S. and other factors.
