Item 8.01: Other Events
Cardinal Health, Inc. is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to reflect the retrospective adoption of amended accounting guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") with respect to the financial information contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012.
As previously disclosed in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2012, we adopted the amended accounting guidance related to the presentation of comprehensive income. This guidance requires that comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. We elected to report comprehensive income and its components in a separate statement of comprehensive income. The adoption of this guidance did not impact our financial position or results of operations.
The following is a presentation of comprehensive income for fiscal years ended June 30:

Total comprehensive income                                $ 1,029     $ 966     $ 630

The information included in this Current Report on Form 8-K is presented for information purposes only in connection with the reporting change described above and does not amend or restate our audited consolidated financial statements, which were included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not reflect events occurring after we filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012, and does not modify or update the disclosures therein in any way, other than to illustrate the adoption of the amended accounting guidance as described above.
