SYSCO REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2026 RESULTS;

REITERATES FY26 GUIDANCE

HOUSTON, October 28, 2025 - Sysco Corporation (NYSE:SYY) (“Sysco” or the “company”) today announced financial results for its 13-week first fiscal quarter ended September 27, 2025.

Key financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2026 include the following (comparisons are to the same period in fiscal year 2025):

•Sales increased 3.2%; U.S. Foodservice volume increased 0.1%;

•Gross profit increased 3.9% to $3.9 billion;

•Operating income decreased 1.0% to $800 million, and adjusted operating income increased 2.9% to $898 million1;

•Net earnings decreased 2.9% to $476 million, and adjusted net earnings increased 2.0% to $551 million1;

•EBITDA decreased 3.1% to $1.0 billion2, and adjusted EBITDA increased 0.1% to $1.1 billion1,2; and

•EPS3 remained flat at $0.99, and adjusted EPS1 increased 5.5% to $1.15.

“We are pleased with the start to our fiscal 2026, with solid improvement in our sales performance, margin management, and supply chain operations. Our Q1 adjusted EPS performance exceeded expectations, fueled by strong improvement in our local business. Our broadline local business was positive for the quarter, and improved sequentially each period of the quarter. Our USFS local business had a positive exit velocity for the quarter and improved 120 basis points sequentially. Our USFS local volume rate of improvement strongly outpaced the industry traffic environment. Momentum is building at Sysco, and the positive outcomes we are seeing re-enforce our confidence in our full year guide. I want to thank our entire team for their customer focus, the improvement in our business that they are delivering, and express how excited everyone at Sysco is for the year ahead,” said Kevin Hourican, Sysco’s Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.

“First quarter results included volume improvements, another quarter of gross margin expansion, and solid expense controls. This reflects our focus on operational execution in the current macro environment. Based on a strong Q1 and trends observed in October, we are confident in our full year guidance of sales growth of 3%-5% and adjusted EPS growth of 1%-3%, which includes an approximate $100 million ($0.16 per diluted share) headwind from lapping lower incentive compensation in fiscal 2025. Excluding this impact, our reiterated outlook reflects EPS growth of approximately 5% to 7%, with the midpoint in-line with our long-term financial algorithm,” said Kenny Cheung, Sysco’s Chief Financial Officer.

1 Adjusted financial results, including adjusted operating expense, adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net earnings, adjusted earnings per share (EPS) and adjusted EBITDA, among others, are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude certain items, which primarily include acquisition-related costs, restructuring and severance costs, and transformational project costs. Reconciliations of all non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest corresponding GAAP financial measure are included at the end of this release.

2 Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of all non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest corresponding GAAP financial measure are included at the end of this release.

Sysco Corporation and its Consolidated Subsidiaries Non-GAAP Reconciliation (Unaudited) Impact of Certain Items
The discussion of our results includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA, that we believe provide important perspective with respect to underlying business trends. Other than EBITDA and free cash flow, any non-GAAP financial measures will be denoted as adjusted measures to remove: (1) restructuring charges; (2) expenses associated with our various transformation initiatives; (3) severance charges; and (4) acquisition-related costs consisting of (a) intangible amortization expense and (b) acquisition costs and due diligence costs related to our acquisitions.
The results of our operations can be impacted due to changes in exchange rates applicable in converting local currencies to U.S. dollars. We measure our results on a constant currency basis. Constant currency operating results are calculated by translating current-period local currency operating results with the currency exchange rates used to translate the financial statements in the comparable prior-year period to determine what the current-period U.S. dollar operating results would have been if the currency exchange rate had not changed from the comparable prior-year period. We also measure our sales growth excluding the impact of our joint venture in Mexico which was divested in the second quarter of fiscal 2025.
Management believes that adjusting its operating expenses, operating income, operating margin, net earnings and diluted earnings per share to remove these Certain Items, presenting its results on a constant currency basis, and adjusting its sales results to exclude the impact of its joint venture in Mexico provides an important perspective with respect to our underlying business trends and results. It provides meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors that (1) is indicative of the performance of the company’s underlying operations and (2) facilitates comparisons on a year-over-year basis.
Sysco has a history of growth through acquisitions and excludes from its non-GAAP financial measures the impact of acquisition-related intangible amortization, acquisition costs and due diligence costs for those acquisitions. We believe this approach significantly enhances the comparability of Sysco’s results for fiscal year 2026 and fiscal year 2025.
Set forth on the following page is a reconciliation of sales, operating expenses, operating income, net earnings and diluted earnings per share to adjusted results for these measures for the periods presented. Individual components of diluted earnings per share may not be equal to the total presented when added due to rounding. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is calculated using adjusted net earnings divided by diluted shares outstanding.

Free Cash Flow

(In Millions)

Free cash flow represents net cash provided from operating activities less purchases of plant and equipment and includes proceeds from sales of plant and equipment. Sysco considers free cash flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business after the purchases and sales of buildings, fleet, equipment and technology, which may potentially be used to pay for, among other things, strategic uses of cash including dividend payments, share repurchases and acquisitions. However, free cash flow may not be available for discretionary expenditures, as it may be necessary that we use it to make mandatory debt service or other payments. Free cash flow should not be used as a substitute for the most comparable GAAP financial measure in assessing the company’s liquidity for the periods presented. An analysis of any non-GAAP financial measure should be used in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. In the table that follows, free cash flow for each period presented is reconciled to net cash provided by operating activities.

Impact of Certain Items on Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA)

(Dollars in Millions)

EBITDA represents net earnings (loss) plus (i) interest expense, (ii) income tax expense and benefit, (iii) depreciation and (iv) amortization. The net earnings (loss) component of our EBITDA calculation is impacted by Certain Items that we do not consider representative of our underlying performance. As a result, in the non-GAAP reconciliations below for each period presented, adjusted EBITDA is computed as EBITDA plus the impact of Certain Items, excluding certain items related to interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Sysco's management considers growth in this metric to be a measure of overall financial performance that provides useful information to management and investors about the profitability of the business, as it facilitates comparison of performance on a consistent basis from period to period by providing a measurement of recurring factors and trends affecting our business. Additionally, it is a commonly used component metric used to inform on capital structure decisions. Adjusted EBITDA should not be used as a substitute for the most comparable GAAP financial measure in assessing the company’s financial performance for the periods presented. An analysis of any non-GAAP financial measure should be used in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. In the tables that follow, adjusted EBITDA for each period presented is reconciled to net earnings.

(2)			Fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025 include acquisition and due diligence costs.
(3)			In arriving at adjusted EBITDA, Sysco does not adjust out interest income of $6 million and $7 million or non-cash stock compensation expense of $31 million and $30 million in fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025, respectively.
(4)			Fiscal 2026 includes $233 million in GAAP depreciation and amortization expense, less $33 million of Non-GAAP depreciation and amortization expense primarily related to acquisitions. Fiscal 2025 includes $235 million in GAAP depreciation and amortization expense, less $33 million of Non-GAAP depreciation and amortization expense primarily related to acquisitions.

Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA

(In Millions)

Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure frequently used by investors and credit rating agencies. It is an important measure used by management to evaluate our access to liquidity, and we believe it is a representation of our financial strength. Our Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio is calculated using a numerator of our debt minus cash and cash equivalents, divided by the sum of the most recent four quarters of Adjusted EBITDA. In the table that follows, we have provided the calculation of our debt and net debt as a ratio of Adjusted EBITDA.

						Sep. 27, 2025
Current maturities of long-term debt						$	1,894
Long-term debt						11,459
Total Debt (GAAP)						13,353
Cash & Cash Equivalents (1)						(919)
Net Debt (Non-GAAP)						$	12,434
Net Earnings for the previous 12 months (GAAP)						$	1,814
Adjusted EBITDA for the previous 12 months (Non-GAAP) (2)						$	4,294
Total Debt/Net Earnings Ratio (GAAP)						7.36
Total Debt/Adjusted EBITDA Ratio (Non-GAAP)						3.11
Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA Ratio (Non-GAAP)						2.90

Projected Adjusted EPS Guidance

Adjusted earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure; however, we cannot predict with certainty certain items that would be included in the most directly comparable GAAP measure for the relevant future periods. Due to these uncertainties, we cannot provide a quantitative reconciliation of projected adjusted EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable effort. However, we expect to calculate adjusted earnings per share for future periods in the same manner as the reconciliations provided for the historical periods herein.
