Question: Erin Wright - Morgan Stanley - Analyst

What's the latest in terms of your outlook on that? I think the prior targets were like 20 de novo expansions a year. Is that still the case?
Question: Erin Wright - Morgan Stanley - Analyst
: Okay. And then from a regulatory standpoint, there's still a lot of unknown from a drug pricing perspective, whethere it's MFN or tariffs, or how we
should think about sort of IRA and Part D and dynamics across that segment, too. Can you talk a little bit about how you see this playing out from
your perspective from a drug pricing? And where you're exposed, I guess?
Question: Erin Wright - Morgan Stanley - Analyst
: Okay. And then your pharmacy, I want to switch gears to the Pharmacy Solutions segment a little bit more, so it continues to grow at a rapid clip.
How sustainable is the 30% plus growth that we've been seeing across that segment as we head into 2026?
Question: Erin Wright - Morgan Stanley - Analyst
: Okay. Within Infusion to digging a little bit into some of the subsegments within the pharmacy solutions. I guess, what is your view on the growth
opportunities across acute and chronic therapies? And also just like bigger picture, what are those areas within the pharmacy segment that you're
most excited about, like in terms of breaking out specialty and infusion, where you have on the specialty side more oncology exposure, but also
the Home & Community Pharmacy too?
Question: Erin Wright - Morgan Stanley - Analyst
: You mentioned the near-term pipeline of about 18 launches on the limited distribution drug side. So can you talk a little bit about that process,
like in terms of that your relationships with the pharma companies on that front? What can you bring to the table for them? And what gives you
confidence in your ability to continue to win those LDDs?
Question: Erin Wright - Morgan Stanley - Analyst
: Drug distributor earlier today was talking a lot about kind of the biosimilar pipeline and generic conversion kind of momentum over the next 12
months and beyond. I guess, can you just take a step back and talk about the implications across your business? Because I think sometimes that's
misinterpreted in terms of how that flows through because there's obviously, -- can be some compelling profit opportunity.
Question: Erin Wright - Morgan Stanley - Analyst
: Okay. And then can -- I'll do one more on the pharmacy side. I guess, hospital partnerships and just how you're thinking about sort of the future in
terms of those partnerships providing infusion capabilities and potentially even more services there on.

profiles of these businesses? What are some of the biggest opportunities to accelerate growth?
Question: Erin Wright - Morgan Stanley - Analyst
: And I think going back to the IPO, I think some of the things that you talked about, too, from a labor perspective, like you've really highlighted
retention rates across the business. How are those and how do those stack up in staffing levels, use of contractors, wage investments and wage
dynamics. Can you talk a little bit about the labor environment, please?
Question: Erin Wright - Morgan Stanley - Analyst
