 PROFILE
CVS interprets the bad handwriting of more US doctors than anybody. The company fills more prescriptions and operates more drugstores than any other drugstore chain -- more than 4,100, primarily in the eastern US -- and is neck-and-neck with Walgreen in total sales. Prescription sales account for more than 60% of its revenues. Subsidiary PharmaCare Management Services offers managed-care drug programs. CVS went online when it bought Soma.com (renamed CVS.com). CVS ProCare stores serve patients with long-term conditions requiring complex drug therapies. CVS is the survivor of Melville, once a diversified retailer that unloaded its other operations in the mid-1990s and took the name of its top performer.
