The 2025-26 Economic Report on Pharmaceutical Wholesalers and Specialty Distributors remains the most comprehensive, fact-based tool for understanding and analyzing the large and growing U.S. pharmaceutical distribution industry. Widely regarded as the industry standard, this encyclopedic resource offers a definitive guide to wholesale distribution’s role in the complex web of U.S. prescription drug channels.
Our 2025-26 edition contains the most current financial and industry data about the distribution of pharmaceuticals and the major companies that handle these products. As always, we have updated all market and industry data with the most current information available. The report also updates our annual analyses of the strategies, market positions, and executive compensation of the three largest companies: Cencora, Cardinal Health, and McKesson.
We review each wholesaler’s business segments and underlying business profitability, based upon our proprietary economic models. This information allows you to assess differences among the public wholesalers’ business organizations, strategies, and financial performance. Where appropriate, financial data have been restated based on updated disclosures.
