SAN DIEGO - CareFusion Corporation, the company that will become public following the planned spinoff of Cardinal Health's clinical and medical products businesses, today launched its new brand and marked the occasion by providing opportunities for its global employees to volunteer for non-profit organizations in their communities.

"This is an exciting day for our company and employees because we believe the opportunity we have to help hospitals measurably improve patient safety and the quality of patient care is of vital importance to the future of global health care," said David Schlotterbeck, chief executive officer of CareFusion. "We are focused on this opportunity as we develop proven medical technologies and combine them with the information our customers need to deliver a higher standard of patient care."

CareFusion Launches Brand

CareFusion's brand signifies the fusion of proven technologies with actionable intelligence to measurably improve care. The company's logo is in the shape of a shield to reflect the protection CareFusion provides to patients and clinicians. The two pieces of the shield represent the "fusion" of technology and intelligence integral to the company's mission, and the orange color was selected for its implication of "safety."

An advertising campaign launched today uses simple, recognizable symbols in a bold presentation against the company's signature orange color to highlight the value CareFusion brings to its customers. The print advertisements will appear more broadly in health care trade journals and national media beginning July 15.

CareFusion "Day of Caring"
The CareFusion "Day of Caring" is designed to encourage its employees to help bring its new brand and culture to life by giving back to the communities where they live and work. Employees at more than 20 locations worldwide will volunteer to support local charitable organizations. Many locations will be participating in a Foundation for Hospital Art PaintFest, where they will paint canvases that will be donated to local hospitals. Other non-profit organizations supported include local food banks, parks and health and human services agencies.

CareFusion Spinoff

CareFusion's planned spinoff from Cardinal Health is expected to be completed later this summer. As previously announced, the new company will be headquartered in San Diego and is anticipated to generate $3.8 billion1 in annual revenue. CareFusion's 15,000 employees globally will serve customers in 120 countries. Additional information regarding CareFusion and the planned spinoff can be found in the third amendment to its Form 10 registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 26, 2009.
