Consolidated Results

Second Quarter Results

Revenue for the quarter was $3.22 billion, an increase of 6.2% from $3.03 billion in the second quarter of 2023. The increase was due to organic revenue of 3.8%, acquisitions, net of divestitures, of 2.5%, partially offset by foreign currency translation of (0.1%). The 3.8% increase in organic revenue was driven by a 4.5% increase in the company's organic Base Business, partially offset by a (0.7%) decrease in COVID-19 PCR testing (COVID-19 Testing).

Use of Adjusted Measures

The company has provided in this press release and accompanying tables "adjusted" financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with GAAP, including adjusted net income, adjusted EPS (or adjusted net income per share), adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, free cash flow, and certain segment information. The company believes these adjusted measures are useful to investors as a supplement to, but not as a substitute for, GAAP measures, in evaluating the company's operational performance. The company further believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors in evaluating operating results and trends, and growth and shareholder returns, as well as in comparing the company's financial results with the financial results of other companies. However, the company notes that these adjusted measures may be different from and not directly comparable to the measures presented by other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures and an identification of the components that comprise "special items" used for certain adjusted financial information are included in the tables accompanying this press release.

The company today is providing an investor relations presentation with additional information on its business and operations, which is available in the investor relations section of the company's website at www.Labcorp.com.
