Records before Q3 FY2026 are reconstructed from the latest snapshot. Ledger: findings.json. Correction of 20 October 2026: The quarterly depreciation and amortisation of Cencora was depreciation alone until fiscal 2025, US$110 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2024, beside a fiscal-year total that includes amortisation. Every quarter now comes from the total, which Cencora reports for every quarter from fiscal 2025, and the quarters before it have no figure. Dividends per share of 5 quarters derived from the figures of 2 filings are no longer published. Records 115 and 116 state the corrected findings, among them lease-adjusted debt of 2.5 times adjusted EBITDA over the 4 quarters to 30 June 2026. Records 6, 14, 21, 29, 36, 44, 51, 58, 64, 68, 69, 76, 94, 109 and 113 cite figures that the correction changed.
