On June 27, 2024, Walgreens announced its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 and reduced its revenue guidance for the fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2024. Among other items, Walgreens reported that “[a]djusted EPS was $0.63, down 36.6 percent on a constant currency basis compared to the year-ago quarter.” The Company attributed its disappointing results and lowered guidance to “significant challenges in the U.S. Retail Pharmacy business stemming from a worse-than-expected consumer environment and challenging pharmacy industry trends.”
On this news, Walgreens’ stock price fell $3.47 per share, or 22.16%, to close at $12.19 per share on June 27, 2024.
