Cencora, Inc&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COR#NYSE">COR</a>) on Wednesday reported second-quarter 2025 sales increased 10.3% to $75.5 billion, missing the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of $75.68 billion</a>, primarily due to an 11.4% increase in revenue within the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment.
U.S. Healthcare Solutions revenue was $68.3 billion, due to overall market growth primarily driven by unit volume growth, including increased sales of products labeled for diabetes and/or weight loss in the GLP-1 class and specialty products to physician practices and health systems.
The company reported adjusted EPS of $4.42, up 16.3% year over year, beating the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/b45247410/cencora-reports-fiscal-2025-second-quarter-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of $4.11</a>.
Adjusted gross profit in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 was $2.9 billion, a 15.2% year-over-year increase, due to the increase in gross profit in the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment, offset in part by the decrease in gross profit in the International Healthcare Solutions segment.

Adjusted gross profit margin was 3.86%, an increase of 16 basis points. Adjusted operating income was $1.2 billion, a 15.3% increase, driven by an increase in the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment, partially offset by a decrease in the International Healthcare Solutions segment. Margin was 1.58% in the fiscal 2025 second quarter, an increase of seven basis points when compared to the prior year quarter.
Guidance:&nbsp;Cencora updated its fiscal year 2025 financial guidance to reflect stronger earnings growth in the U.S. Healthcare Solutions segment and a lower contribution from the International Healthcare Solutions segment.
Cencora expects adjusted diluted EPS of $15.70-$15.95, up from prior guidance of $15.30-$15.60, compared to the consensus of $15.46.
International Healthcare Solutions segment revenue growth to be in the range of 3%-4%, down from the previous range of 4%-5%.
Adjusted consolidated operating income growth to be between 13.5%-15.5%, up from the previous range of 11.5%-13.5%.

Shares of REIT stocks are trading lower amid an overall market reversal. The sector may also be down amid a rise in the 30-year Treasury yield.

Despite Wall Street continuing to tumble at the start of the second quarter of 2025, a small group of S&amp;P 500 stocks has remained nearly untouched by the chaos triggered by <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/tariffs">Donald Trump's tariff policies.</a>
Stocks that delivered standout gains in the first quarter have held their ground through the opening week of the second quarter, showing resilience as the broader market sank under pressure from tariffs and softening earnings outlooks.
The five best-performing S&amp;P 500 names in Q1 2025 — CVS Health Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CVS#NYSE">CVS</a>), Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PM#NYSE">PM</a>), Newmont Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEM#NYSE">NEM</a>), Cencora Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COR#NYSE">COR</a>) and Vertex Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VRTX#NASDAQ">VRTX</a>) — have seen only minimal declines in recent days, defying a sharp 10% drop in the S&amp;P 500 index fueled by mounting trade tensions and concerns over recession. 
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Quarterly Stars In A Cloudy Market</h3>
Let's break it down:
<ul>
<li>CVS Health soared 50.9% in Q1, posting its best quarterly gain since 1975. While the S&amp;P 500 dropped 10% in the first week of April, CVS is only down 5% in Q2.</li>
<li>Philip Morris jumped 31.9% last quarter, reaching multiple record highs and logging its second-best quarter since going public in 2008. PM is down 4.8% thus far in April.</li>
<li>Newmont rode the gold wave. With gold prices up 19%, the mining giant surged 29.7%, its strongest 3-month performance since early 2020. NEM fell 7.2% in Q2, yet showed a more contained drop than the broader market.</li>
<li>Cencora, formerly AmerisourceBergen, posted a 23.8% rise, and remains up 0.2% this month, dodging the tariff-driven downturn.</li>
<li>Vertex Pharmaceuticals climbed 21% in Q1, and has stayed flat so far in Q2, showing impressive stability in biotech.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">But How Much More Room To Run?</h3>
Despite their impressive runs, future gains may be limited. Analyst consensus shows only Newmont and CVS have potential upside of 25.8% and 13.2%, respectively, based on median price targets. 
For the others, the path forward looks far less compelling. With valuations already stretched and macroeconomic risks mounting — from renewed trade tensions to signs of weakening corporate margins — the potential for further gains could quickly evaporate if analysts begin slashing forecasts in the coming weeks.

These 5 S&P 500 Winners Held Strong In Q1 — Can The Rally Continue?

The portfolio manager of AdvisorShares Focused Equity ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CWS#NYSE">CWS</a>) shares why his company's ETF is outperforming the market and many other<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs"> ETFs in 2025.</a>
Beating the Market: AdvisorShares Portfolio Strategist Eddy Elfenbein highlighted the ETF he runs that beat the market in 2025 during an exclusive interview with Benzinga at Future Proof Citywide.
"We're beating the market this year," Elfenbein told Benzinga. He said it helps that the market has been "nervous" this year, pushing the nine-year-old ETF to have a five-star Morningstar rating.
"We have a lot of conservative stocks."
Elfenbein said that's where investors want to be right now and that the ETF is "at the right place at the right time."
The AdvisorShares Focused Equity ETF often holds around 25 stocks. Here are the current top five holdings and the percentage of assets they make up.
<ul>
<li>Cencora (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COR#NYSE">COR</a>): 4.8%</li>
<li>Intercontinental Exchange (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ICE#NYSE">ICE</a>): 4.7%</li>
<li>Rollins Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ROL#NYSE">ROL</a>): 4.5%</li>
<li>American Water Works (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AWK#NYSE">AWK</a>): 4.5%</li>
<li>Heico Crop (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HEI#NYSE">HEI</a>): 4.4%</li>
</ul>
The portfolio manager told Benzinga that the goal of the ETF was to follow the market and create a product that puts investors first. Elfenbein said the ETF has low turnover, is tax efficient, and focuses on transparency.

Advice for Investors: With the stock market experiencing high volatility in 2025, Elfenbein provided some advice for investors during the interview.
"The most important thing to have as an investor is a long-term focus," Elfenbein said.
The portfolio manager said the market has experienced a recent 10% pullback from the highs, which sounds bad but is less than the annual average one-year pullback of 14% each year from top to bottom.
"The key is riding those out, not letting your emotions get the best of you."
Elfenbein said it's important not to panic and head for the exits as investors because of some volatility. "Keep a level head and have good stocks that will weather the storm."
Price Action: The AdvisorShares Focused Equity ETF is up 1.8% year-to-date in 2025, beating the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPY#NYSE">SPY</a>), which is down 2.8% year-to-date in 2025.
