Walgreens Boots Alliance on Tuesday announced an increase of 13.6% in net sales to $30.2 billion for the second quarter ended Feb. 29, 2016, compared with the same quarter a year ago, largely due to the full consolidation of Alliance Boots for the entire quarter this year. Foreign currency translation adversely impacted sales by approximately $750 million or 2.4%.
“I am pleased with how we are working across the company to transform our businesses and position ourselves for success in rapidly changing markets,” stated Stefano Pessina, Walgreens Boots Alliance executive vice chairman and CEO.
