McKesson shares are under pressure as investors worry that changing prices for GLP-1 drugs could squeeze profit margins for drug distributors ahead of the company’s fourth-quarter fiscal 2026 results on May 7. The move reflects broader concerns across the pharmaceutical distribution sector, adding to pre-earnings jitters.

The sell-off has been compounded by fresh price target cuts from Bank of America and UBS, which signal growing skepticism about the company’s near-term earnings power. These analyst moves are reinforcing the negative sentiment around McKesson and its peers as the market reassesses margin expectations.
