Exhibit 99.1

McKESSON REPORTS FISCAL 2014 THIRD-QUARTER RESULTS

SAN FRANCISCO, January 30, 2014 – McKesson Corporation (NYSE:MCK) today reported that revenues for the third quarter ended December 31, 2013 were $34.3 billion, up 10% compared to $31.1 billion a year ago. On the basis of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), third-quarter earnings per diluted share from continuing operations was $0.67 compared to $1.27 a year ago. Third-quarter GAAP earnings per diluted share from continuing operations includes charges of $142 million, or 37 cents per share, related to LIFO adjustments, $122 million, or 52 cents per share, related to an ongoing dispute with the Canada Revenue Agency and $42 million, or 18 cents per share, in the Technology Solutions segment from restructuring actions in the Horizon Clinicals software platform. Third-quarter GAAP earnings per diluted share was $0.28 which includes a 39 cent loss from discontinued operations.

Third-quarter Adjusted Earnings per diluted share from continuing operations was $1.45 compared to $1.44 a year ago. Third-quarter Adjusted Earnings per share includes charges of $122 million, or 52 cents per share, related to the Canadian dispute and $42 million, or 18 cents per share, in the Technology Solutions segment.

“We are extremely pleased by the third-quarter performance of our Distribution Solutions segment where adjusted operating profit grew by 37% and our full-year view of the performance in Distribution Solutions is better than our previous expectations,” said John H. Hammergren, chairman and chief executive officer. “This operating strength is offset by an increase in our tax reserves due to a dispute with the Canadian tax authorities and a charge in our Technology Solutions

segment as we continue to align our Horizon Clinicals software platform development efforts and size the organization appropriately given regulatory delays. As a result, we are updating our previous outlook and now expect Adjusted Earnings per diluted share of $8.05 to $8.20 for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2014.”

For the first nine months of the fiscal year, McKesson generated cash from operations of $472 million, and ended the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $2.4 billion. During the first nine months of the fiscal year, McKesson paid $154 million in dividends, had internal capital spending of $296 million, and spent $116 million on acquisitions.

In the third quarter, Distribution Solutions GAAP operating profit was $552 million and GAAP operating margin was 1.65%. Third-quarter adjusted operating profit was $783 million and the adjusted operating margin was 2.34%.

Adjusted Earnings (Non-GAAP) Financial Information

Adjusted Earnings represents income from continuing operations, excluding the effects of the following items from the Company’s GAAP financial results, including the related income tax effects:

Amortization of acquisition-related intangibles - Amortization expense of acquired intangible assets purchased in connection with acquisitions by the Company.

Acquisition related expenses - Transaction and integration expenses that are directly related to acquisitions by the Company. Examples include transaction closing costs, professional service fees, restructuring or severance charges, retention payments, employee relocation expenses, facility or other exit-related expenses, recoveries of acquisition-related expenses or post-closing expenses, bridge loan fees, gains or losses related to foreign currency contracts, and gains or losses on business combinations.

Litigation reserve adjustments - Adjustments to the Company’s reserves, including accrued interest, for estimated probable losses for its Average Wholesale Price litigation matter, as such term was defined in the Company’s Annual Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013.

LIFO-related adjustments - Last-In-First-Out (“LIFO”) inventory-related adjustments.

Income taxes on Adjusted Earnings are calculated in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 740, “Income Taxes,” which is the same accounting principle used by the Company when presenting its GAAP financial results.

The Company believes the presentation of non-GAAP measures such as Adjusted Earnings provides useful supplemental information to investors with regard to its core operating performance, as well as assists with the comparison of its past financial performance to the Company’s future financial results. Moreover, the Company believes that the presentation of Adjusted Earnings assists investors’ ability to compare its financial results to those of other companies in the same industry. However, the Company’s Adjusted Earnings measure may be defined and calculated differently by other companies in the same industry.

The Company internally uses non-GAAP financial measures such as Adjusted Earnings in connection with its own financial planning and reporting processes. Specifically, Adjusted Earnings serves as one of the measures management utilizes when allocating resources, deploying capital and assessing business performance and employee incentive compensation. Nonetheless, non-GAAP financial results and related measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, nor superior to, financial results and measures as determined or calculated in accordance with GAAP.
