HOUSTON, Jan. 27, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sysco Corporation (NYSE:SYY) ("Sysco" or the "company") today announced financial results for its 13-week second fiscal quarter ended December 27, 2025.

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

Sales increased 3.0%; U.S. Foodservice volume increased 0.8%, U.S. local volumes increased 1.2%;
Gross profit increased 3.9% to $3.8 billion;
Operating income decreased 2.8% to $692 million, and adjusted operating income increased 3.1% to $807 million¹;
Net earnings decreased 4.2% to $389 million, and adjusted net earnings increased 3.9% to $476 million¹;
EBITDA decreased 0.9% to $923 million², and adjusted EBITDA increased 3.3% to $1.0 billion^1,2; and
EPS³ decreased 1.2% to $0.81, and adjusted EPS¹ increased 6.5% to $0.99.

"Sysco delivered strong results in the second quarter of fiscal year 2026. Our performance was driven by increased local case growth, and gross margin expansion. We delivered our third consecutive quarter of sequentially improving local case growth. More importantly, USFS local case volume is now positive, having delivered positive 1.2% case volume growth in the quarter. Our building momentum and progress with key growth initiatives gives us confidence that we will deliver at least 2.5% local case growth in the 2^nd half of the fiscal year. Given the progress we are making, we now expect our full year adjusted EPS¹ to be at the high end of our previously provided guidance range of $4.50-$4.60. While there is still more work to be done, I am pleased with the momentum of our business, and want to thank the entire organization for their steadfast commitment to our customers. It is an exciting time to be at Sysco," said Kevin Hourican, Sysco's Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.

"Second quarter results reflected high-quality performance across the income statement and cash flow. These results highlight our operational execution on Sysco specific initiatives. Looking ahead, our underlying momentum and continued focus on Sysco specific initiatives support our confidence in raising our full year adjusted EPS guidance to the high-end of the prior range. Recall, this includes an approximate $100 million ($0.16 per diluted share) headwind from lapping lower incentive compensation in fiscal year 2025. Excluding the negative impact of the incentive compensation on 2026, our outlook for adjusted EPS growth in FY26 is expected to deliver at the high end of approximately 5%-7%, 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. For additional information regarding forward-looking full year adjusted EPS see section below entitled "Projected Adjusted EPS Guidance."

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.

³ Earnings per share (EPS) is shown on a diluted basis, unless otherwise specified.

Total Sysco

Sales for the second quarter increased 3.0% to $20.8 billion.

Gross profit increased 3.9% to $3.8 billion, and gross margin increased 15 basis points to 18.3%. Product cost inflation was 2.9% at the total enterprise level, as measured by the estimated change in Sysco's product costs, primarily in the meat and seafood categories. The increase in gross profit for the second quarter was primarily driven by effective management of product cost inflation and strategic sourcing efficiencies.

Operating expenses increased 5.5%, primarily driven by sales headcount and capacity investments and lapping incentive compensation from the prior year. Adjusted operating expenses increased 4.1%¹.

Operating income decreased 2.8% to $692 million, and adjusted operating income increased 3.1% to $807 million¹.

U.S. Foodservice Operations

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 year 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.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation (Unaudited)

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.

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.

	Dec. 27, 2025
Current maturities of long-term debt	$	1,150
Long-term debt		12,440
Total Debt (GAAP)		13,590
Cash & Cash Equivalents		(1,222	)
Net Debt (Non-GAAP)	$	12,368

Net Earnings for the previous 12 months (GAAP)	$	1,797
Adjusted EBITDA for the previous 12 months (Non-GAAP)⁽¹⁾	$	4,326

Total Debt/Net Earnings Ratio (GAAP)		7.56
Total Debt/Adjusted EBITDA Ratio (Non-GAAP)		3.14
Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA Ratio (Non-GAAP)		2.86

Projected Adjusted EPS Guidance

Adjusted earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure; however, we cannot predict with certainty the magnitude or scope of certain items that would be included in the most directly comparable GAAP measure for the relevant future periods, and such items may be significant. 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.
