CONSHOHOCKEN,

In her role as CHRO, Ms. Hammock will report

to CEO Bob Mauch as a member of the Company’s enterprise leadership team and be responsible for setting and implementing

Cencora’s global human resources strategy. Mr. Mauch added, “We are excited to welcome Sam to Cencora. Sam’s

valuable addition to our team as we continue advancing our growth priorities and our purpose.”
