Launching CareFusion
To Cardinal Health Shareholders:
It is hard to believe that it has only been a year since we announced plans to spin o our clinical and
medical products businesses as a separate, publicly traded company, now known as CareFusion
Corporation. With the spino complete, both Cardinal Health and CareFusion are better positioned
to capitalize on the signi cant growth opportunities in their respective segments of a very dynamic
healthcare industry.
Both companies will enjoy increased focus and exibility to manage their businesses and investments
as necessary to compete e ectively. And exibility is a critical attribute for any company operating in
the current environment.
Cardinal Health is focused on the opportunity to improve the cost-e ectiveness of healthcare,
through improving e ciency across the system. CareFusion is focused on improving safety through
reducing medication errors and healthcare-acquired infections. Both will go to market with industry-
leading products and services and solid teams ready to execute on their business initiatives.
I believe the spino is a positive progression for our businesses and our shareholders, many of whom
remain shareholders of CareFusion. And I look forward to tracking the progress and success of both
businesses in the future.
Sincerely,
R. Kerry Clark
Retired Chairman and Chief Executive O cer
