NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

Unless this Form 10-Q indicates otherwise or the context otherwise requires, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” “Sysco,” or the “company” as used in this Form 10-Q refer to Sysco Corporation together with its consolidated subsidiaries and divisions.

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the company, without an audit. The financial statements include consolidated balance sheets, consolidated results of operations, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in consolidated shareholders’ equity and consolidated cash flows. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise disclosed, necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity for all periods presented have been made.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 28, 2025 (our “fiscal 2025 Form 10-K”). Certain footnote disclosures included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to applicable rules and regulations for interim financial statements.

Supplemental Balance Sheet Information

Supplier Financing Programs

We have agreements with third parties to provide supplier finance programs which facilitate participating suppliers’ ability to finance payment obligations from the company with designated third-party financial institutions. Participating suppliers may, at their sole discretion, make offers to finance one or more payment obligations of the company prior to their scheduled due dates at a discounted price to participating financial institutions. Obligations of the company that have been confirmed as valid require payment by Sysco upon the due date of the obligation.

Our outstanding payment obligations that suppliers financed to participating financial institutions, which are included in accounts payable on the consolidated balance sheets, are as follows:


	Sep. 27, 2025		Jun. 28, 2025
	(In millions)
Financed payment obligations	$	111	$	93

Accounts Receivable, Less Allowances

We utilize arrangements to sell portions of our trade accounts receivable to third-party financial institutions on a non-recourse basis in exchange for cash. The arrangements meet the requirements for the receivables transferred to be accounted for as sales and are accounted for as a reduction in trade receivables. Proceeds from the sales are reported net of negotiated discount and are recorded as a reduction to accounts receivable outstanding in the company’s consolidated balance sheets and as cash flows from operating activities in the company’s consolidated statements of cash flows. Accounts receivable sold under these arrangements were $1.4 billion and $1.9 billion for the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026 and 2025, respectively.

In certain instances, Sysco has continuing involvement subsequent to the transfer, limited to providing certain servicing and collection actions on behalf of the purchasers of the designated trade receivables. The outstanding aggregate principal amount of receivables that has been derecognized and remain outstanding was $206 million and $189 million at September 27, 2025 and June 28, 2025, respectively. We continue to service the receivables post-transfer on a non-recourse basis with no participating interest.

Supplemental Cash Flow Information

The following table sets forth our reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash reported within the consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the amounts shown in the consolidated statement of cash flows:


	Sep. 27, 2025		Sep. 28, 2024
	(In millions)
Cash and cash equivalents	$	844	$	733
Restricted cash (1)	283		101
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash shown in the consolidated statement of cash flows	$	1,127	$	834


(1)			Restricted cash primarily represents cash and cash equivalents of Sysco’s wholly owned captive insurance subsidiary, restricted for use to secure the insurer’s obligations for workers’ compensation, general liability and auto liability programs, as well as cash reserved for a future acquisition. Restricted cash is located within other assets in each consolidated balance sheet.

2. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Recent Accounting Guidance Adopted

Segment Reporting

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280), Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. ASU 2023-07 expands public entities’ segment disclosures by requiring disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, an amount and description of its composition for other segment items and interim disclosures of a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, (our fiscal 2025), and interim periods for our fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, (our first quarter of fiscal 2026), and should be applied on a retrospective basis to all periods presented. Sysco adopted ASU 2023-07 related to annual disclosure requirements effective with our fiscal 2025 Form 10-K. The newly required annual disclosures were included in Note 21 - Business Segment Information of the fiscal 2025 Form 10-K. We adopted ASU 2023-07 related to interim disclosure requirements effective with our first quarter fiscal 2026 10-Q filing. See Note 13 included in this Form 10-Q for the additional segment disclosures required as a result of the adoption. Adoption of ASU 2023-07 only impacted our financial statement disclosures, with no impacts to our financial position or results of operations.

Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted

Income Taxes

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures to enhance income tax information primarily through changes in the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, (our fiscal 2026), on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the effect of adopting ASU 2023-09 on our disclosures.

Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The standard update requires more detailed disclosures related to the types of expenses included within commonly presented income statement captions. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, (our fiscal 2028), and interim reporting periods for our fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, (our first quarter of fiscal 2029). Early adoption is permitted. The standard updates are to be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. We are currently evaluating the effect of adopting ASU 2024-03 on our disclosures.

Internal-Use Software

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40), which amends certain aspects of the accounting and disclosure of software costs under ASU 350-40. This ASU updates the cost capitalization threshold for internal-use software development costs by removing all references to software project development stages and providing new guidance on how to evaluate whether the probable-to-complete recognition threshold has been met. ASU 2025-06 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, (our fiscal 2029), and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods, (our first quarter of fiscal 2029). Early adoption is permitted. The standard updates may be applied prospectively, retrospectively, or via a modified prospective transition method. We are currently evaluating the effect of adopting ASU 2025-06 on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

3. REVENUE

We recognize revenues when our performance obligations are satisfied in an amount that reflects the consideration Sysco expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods and services. Customer receivables, which are included in accounts receivable, less allowances in the consolidated balance sheet, were $5.5 billion and $5.1 billion as of September 27, 2025 and June 28, 2025, respectively.

4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Sysco’s policy is to invest only in high-quality investments. The fair values of our cash deposits and money market funds included in cash equivalents are valued using inputs that are considered a Level 1 measurement. Other cash equivalents, such as time deposits and highly liquid instruments with original maturities of three months or less, are valued using inputs that are considered a Level 2 measurement. The fair value of our marketable securities is measured using inputs that are considered a Level 2 measurement, as they rely on quoted prices in markets that are not actively traded or observable inputs over the full term of the asset. The location and the fair value of the company’s marketable securities in the consolidated balance sheet are disclosed in Note 5, “Marketable Securities.” The fair value of our derivative instruments is measured using inputs that are considered a Level 2 measurement, as they are not actively traded and are valued using pricing models that use observable market quotations. The location and the fair values of derivative assets and liabilities designated as hedges in the consolidated balance sheet are disclosed in Note 6, “Derivative Financial Instruments.”

The following tables present our assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 27, 2025 and June 28, 2025:


	Assets Measured at Fair Value as of Sep. 27, 2025
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
	(In millions)
Assets:

Cash and cash equivalents	$	340	$	—	$	—	$	340

Restricted cash	283		—		—		283







Total assets at fair value	$	623	$	—	$	—	$	623


	Assets Measured at Fair Value as of Jun. 28, 2025
	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
	(In millions)
Assets:

Restricted cash	277		—		—		277

Total assets at fair value	$	743	$	—	$	—	$	743

The carrying values of accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated their respective fair values due to their short-term maturities. The fair value of our total debt is estimated based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to the company for new debt with the same maturities as existing debt and is considered a Level 2 measurement. The fair value of total debt was approximately $13.1 billion as of September 27, 2025 and $12.8 billion as of June 28, 2025, while the carrying value was $13.4 billion as of September 27, 2025 and $13.3 billion as of June 28, 2025.

5. MARKETABLE SECURITIES

Sysco invests a portion of the assets held by its wholly owned captive insurance subsidiary in a restricted investment portfolio of marketable fixed income securities, which have been classified and accounted for as available-for-sale. We include fixed income securities maturing in less than 12 months within prepaid expenses and other current assets. Fixed income securities maturing in more than 12 months are included within other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. We record the amounts at fair market value, which is determined using quoted market prices at the end of the reporting period.

Unrealized gains and any portion of a security’s unrealized loss attributable to non-credit losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. There were no significant credit losses recognized in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026.

The following table presents our available-for-sale marketable securities as of September 27, 2025 and June 28, 2025:


	Sep. 27, 2025
	Amortized Cost Basis		Gross Unrealized Gains		Gross Unrealized Losses		Fair Value		Short-Term Marketable Securities		Long-Term Marketable Securities

Government bonds	29		—		(1)		28		—		28
Total marketable securities	$	133	$	1	$	(2)	$	132	$	15	$	117

As of September 27, 2025, the balance of available-for-sale securities by contractual maturity is shown in the following table. Within the table, maturities of fixed income securities have been allocated based upon timing of estimated cash flows. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because the issuers of the securities may have the right to prepay obligations without prepayment penalties.


	Sep. 27, 2025
	(In millions)
Due in one year or less	$	17
Due after one year through five years	71
Due after five years	37

Total	$	125

There were no significant realized gains or losses in marketable securities in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026.

6. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Sysco uses derivative financial instruments to enact hedging strategies for risk mitigation purposes; however, we do not use derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. Hedging strategies are used to manage interest rate risk, foreign currency risk and fuel price risk.

Hedging of interest rate risk

Sysco manages its debt portfolio with interest rate swaps from time to time to achieve an overall desired position of fixed and floating rates. The interest rate swaps are designated as fair value hedges and gains or losses on the hedges impact interest expense within the consolidated statements of income.

Hedging of foreign currency risk

Sysco has cross-currency swaps that hedge the foreign currency exposure of our net investment in certain foreign

operations. These cross-currency swaps are designated as net investment hedges with gains and losses recognized within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Sysco routinely manages foreign currency risk with spot and forward-rate cross-currency swaps on foreign-denominated balances. The swaps are designated as fair value hedges and for swaps hedging the change in foreign currency spot rates, we have elected to exclude the changes in fair value of the forward points from the assessments of hedge effectiveness. Gains or losses from fair value hedges impact the same category on the consolidated statements of income as the item being hedged, including the earnings impact of the excluded components. Unrealized gains or losses on components excluded from hedge effectiveness are recorded within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and recognized into earnings over the life of the hedged instrument.

Sysco’s operations in Europe have inventory purchases denominated in currencies other than their functional currency, such as the Euro, U.S. dollar, Polish zloty and Danish krone. Accounts payable associated with these inventory purchases give rise to foreign currency exposure between the functional currency of each entity and these currencies. We periodically enter into foreign currency forward swap contracts to sell the applicable entity’s functional currency and buy currencies matching the inventory purchase, which operate as cash flow hedges of the company’s foreign currency-denominated inventory purchases.

Hedging of fuel price risk

Sysco uses fuel commodity swap contracts to hedge against the risk of the change in the price of diesel fuel on anticipated future purchases. These swaps are designated as cash flow hedges.

None of our hedging instruments contain credit-risk-related contingent features. Details of outstanding hedging instruments as of September 27, 2025 are presented below:

7. DEBT

On September 5, 2025, Sysco entered into a new long-term revolving credit facility, which replaces the $3.0 billion senior revolving credit facility that was originally entered into on April 29, 2022. The aggregate commitments of the lenders under the new long-term credit agreement are $3.0 billion, with an option to increase such commitments to $4.0 billion. The new facility includes a covenant requiring Sysco to maintain a ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense of 3.0 to 1.0 over four consecutive fiscal quarters, which is consistent with our previous revolving credit facility. The new revolving credit facility expires on September 5, 2030. As of September 27, 2025, there were no borrowings outstanding under this facility.

We have a U.S. commercial paper program allowing the company to issue short-term unsecured notes in an aggregate amount not to exceed $3.0 billion. Any outstanding amounts are classified within long-term debt, as the program is supported by the long-term revolving credit facility noted above. As of September 27, 2025, there were no commercial paper issuances outstanding under this program. We also have a commercial paper program in Europe with borrowings not to exceed €500 million. As of September 27, 2025, there were €290 million (the equivalent of $339 million) in commercial paper issuances outstanding under this program.

The total carrying value of our debt was $13.4 billion as of September 27, 2025 and $13.3 billion as of June 28, 2025. The increase in the carrying value of our debt during the 13-week period ended September 27, 2025 was due to new commercial paper issuances and new leases in support of plant and equipment. In October 2025, Sysco repaid $750 million of matured senior notes that were classified within current maturities of long-term debt as of September 27, 2025.

Information regarding the guarantors of our registered debt securities is contained in the section captioned Guarantor Summarized Financial Information in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Item 2 of Part I of this Form 10-Q.

8. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:

The number of securities that were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation because the effect would have been anti-dilutive was approximately 1,718,000 and 3,338,000 for the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026 and 2025, respectively.

9. OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Comprehensive income is net earnings plus certain other items that are recorded directly to shareholders’ equity, such as foreign currency translation adjustment, amounts related to certain hedging arrangements, amounts related to pension and other postretirement plans and changes in marketable securities. Comprehensive income was $445 million and $663 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025, respectively.

A summary of the components of other comprehensive income (loss) and the related tax effects for each of the periods presented is as follows:

10. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Sysco provides compensation benefits to employees under several share-based payment arrangements, including various long-term employee stock incentive plans and the 2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP).

Stock Incentive Plans

In the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026, options to purchase 721,368 shares were granted to employees. The fair value of each option award is estimated as of the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. The weighted average grant-date fair value per option granted during the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026 was $19.53.

In the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026, employees were granted 451,638 performance share units (PSUs). Based on the jurisdiction in which the employee resides, some of these PSUs were granted with forfeitable dividend equivalents. The fair value of each PSU award granted with a dividend equivalent is based on the company’s stock price as of the date of grant. For PSUs granted without dividend equivalents, the fair value is reduced by the present value of expected dividends during the vesting period. The weighted average grant-date fair value per PSU granted during the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026 was $86.23. The PSUs will convert into shares of Sysco’s common stock at the end of the three-year performance period based on actual performance targets achieved, as well as the market-based return of Sysco’s common stock relative to that of each company within the S&P 500 index.

In the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026, employees were granted 1,309,048 restricted stock units. The weighted average grant-date fair value per restricted stock unit granted during the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026 was $77.50.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Plan participants purchased 287,991 shares of common stock under the ESPP during the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026. The weighted average fair value per employee stock purchase right issued pursuant to the ESPP was $12.35 during the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026. The fair value of each stock purchase right is estimated as the difference between the stock price at the date of issuance and the employee purchase price.

All Share-Based Payment Arrangements

The total share-based compensation cost that has been recognized in results of operations was $31 million and $30 million for the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025, respectively.

As of September 27, 2025, there was a total of $219 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation arrangements. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.18 years.

11. INCOME TAXES

Effective Tax Rate

For the first quarter of fiscal 2026, the company’s effective tax rate of 20.6% was lower than the company’s 21.0% statutory tax rate primarily as a result of a foreign income tax benefit, equity-based compensation excess tax benefits, and foreign exchange losses, partially offset by state income taxes.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the company’s effective tax rate of 23.7% was higher than the company’s 21.0% statutory tax rate primarily as a result of state income taxes, partially offset by a foreign income tax benefit and equity-based compensation excess tax benefits.

Uncertain Tax Positions

As of September 27, 2025, the gross amount of unrecognized tax benefit and related accrued interest was $68 million and $18 million, respectively. It is reasonably possible the amount of the unrecognized tax benefit with respect to certain unrecognized tax positions of the company will increase or decrease in the next 12 months. At this time, an estimate of the range of the reasonably possible change cannot be made.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2023, Sysco received a Statutory Notice of Deficiency from the Internal Revenue Service, mainly related to foreign tax credits generated in fiscal 2018 from repatriated earnings primarily from our Canadian operations. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, the company filed suit in the U.S. Tax Court challenging the validity of certain tax regulations related to the one-time transition tax on unrepatriated foreign earnings, which were enacted as part of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (TCJA). The lawsuit seeks to have the court invalidate these regulations, which would affirm the company’s position regarding its foreign tax credits. Sysco has previously recorded a benefit of $131 million attributable to its interpretation of the TCJA and the Internal Revenue Code. If we are ultimately unsuccessful in defending our position, we may be required to reverse all, or some portion, of the benefit previously recorded.

Other

The Inflation Reduction Act includes provisions that allow for the transfer of certain federal clean energy tax credits (Transferable Tax Credits). In September 2025, we entered into a contract to purchase approximately $200 million of Transferable Tax Credits which will be applied against our fiscal 2026 federal income taxes.

The determination of our provision for income taxes requires judgment, the use of estimates and the interpretation and application of complex tax laws. Our provision for income taxes reflects income earned and taxed in the various U.S. federal and state, as well as foreign jurisdictions. Tax law changes, increases or decreases in permanent book versus tax basis differences, accruals or adjustments of accruals for unrecognized tax benefits or valuation allowances, and our change in the mix of earnings from these taxing jurisdictions all affect the overall effective tax rate.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings

Sysco is engaged in various legal proceedings that have arisen but have not been fully adjudicated. The likelihood of loss for these legal proceedings, based on definitions within contingency accounting literature, ranges from remote to reasonably possible to probable. When probable and reasonably estimable, the losses have been accrued. Although the final results of legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, based on estimates of the range of potential losses associated with these matters, management does not believe the ultimate resolution of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect upon the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the company.

13. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

Sysco distributes food and related products to restaurants, healthcare and educational facilities, lodging establishments and other foodservice customers. Our primary operations are located in North America and Europe. Under the accounting provisions related to disclosures about segments of an enterprise, we have aggregated certain operating segments into three reportable segments. “Other” financial information is attributable to our other operating segments that do not meet the quantitative disclosure thresholds.

•U.S. Foodservice Operations – primarily includes (a) our U.S. Broadline operations, which distribute a full line of food products, including custom-cut meat, seafood, produce, specialty Italian, specialty imports and a wide variety of non-food products and (b) our U.S. Specialty operations, which include our FreshPoint fresh produce distribution business, our Buckhead | Newport Meat & Seafood specialty protein operations, our growing Italian Specialty platform anchored by Greco & Sons, Inc., our Edward Don restaurant equipment and supplies distribution business, our Asian specialty distribution company and a number of other small specialty businesses that are not material to the operations of Sysco;

•International Foodservice Operations – includes operations outside of the United States (U.S.), which distribute a full line of food products and a wide variety of non-food products. The Americas primarily consists of operations in Canada, Bahamas, Costa Rica and Panama, as well as our export operations that distribute to international customers. Our European operations primarily consist of operations in the United Kingdom (U.K.), France, Ireland and Sweden;

•SYGMA – our U.S. customized distribution operations serving quick-service chain restaurant customer locations; and

•Other – primarily our hotel supply operations, Guest Worldwide.

The accounting policies for the segments are the same as those disclosed by Sysco for its consolidated financial statements. Our Global Support Center expenses generally include all expenses of the corporate office and Sysco’s shared service operations. Collectively, our Global Support Center provides numerous centralized services to our operating sites and performs support activities for employees, suppliers and customers. These services include customer and vendor contract administration, finance, legal, information technology, risk management and insurance, sales and marketing, merchandising, inbound logistics, human resources, and strategy. Expenses for the Global Support Center primarily consist of payroll costs for employees assigned to these operations, including severance, if any, all U.S. share-based compensation costs, and certain information technology, self-insurance, and depreciation expenses.

Our chief operating decision maker (CODM) is our chief executive officer, who is responsible for setting the company's strategic direction, managing overall operations, and is the main point of communication between the board of directors and key operational personnel within the organization. The CODM regularly reviews financial results, operating performance, and capital expenditures of our reportable segments. Our CODM uses operating income as a primary measure of segment performance and as a comparison between each of our segments. Operating income is defined as income before interest expense, other expense (income), net, and income taxes. The significant expense categories and amounts presented below align with the segment-level information that is regularly provided to the CODM. The following tables set forth certain financial information for Sysco’s business segments.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This discussion should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements as of June 28, 2025, and for the fiscal year then ended, and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, both contained in our fiscal 2025 Form 10-K, as well as the consolidated financial statements (unaudited) and notes to the consolidated financial statements (unaudited) contained in this report.

Highlights

Our first quarter of fiscal 2026 results included sales growth of 3.2% as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, driven by increased sales in our U.S. Foodservice Operations, International Foodservice Operations, and SYGMA segments. Our gross profit increased 3.9% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, due to product cost savings driven by strategic sourcing initiatives. Operating income decreased 1.0% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, due to increased restructuring and transformational project costs and acquisition-related costs. We consider these “Certain Item” expenses (as defined below). Excluding Certain Item expenses, adjusted operating income increased 2.9% as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Our net earnings for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 decreased 2.9% as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Excluding Certain Item expenses, adjusted net earnings increased by 2.0% as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025. See below for a comparison of our fiscal 2026 results to our fiscal 2025 results, both including and excluding Certain Items.

Comparisons of results from the first quarter of fiscal 2026 to the first quarter of fiscal 2025 are presented below:

•Sales:

◦increased 3.2%, or $664 million, to $21.1 billion;

•Operating income:

◦decreased 1.0%, or $8 million, to $800 million;

◦adjusted operating income increased 2.9%, or $25 million, to $898 million;

•Net earnings:

◦decreased 2.9%, or $14 million, to $476 million;

◦adjusted net earnings increased 2.0%, or $11 million, to $551 million;

•Basic earnings per share:

◦decreased 1.0%, or $0.01, to $0.99 per share;

•Diluted earnings per share:

◦unchanged, at $0.99 per share;

◦adjusted diluted earnings per share increased 5.5%, or $0.06, to $1.15 per share;

•EBITDA:

◦decreased 3.1%, or $32 million, to $1.0 billion; and

◦adjusted EBITDA increased 0.1%, or $1 million, to $1.1 billion.

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 fiscal 2026 and fiscal 2025 items discussed above are collectively referred to as “Certain Items.” The results of our operations can be impacted by changes in exchange rates applicable to converting from local currencies to U.S. dollars. We measure our results on a constant currency basis.

Trends

Economic and Industry Trends

Foot traffic to restaurant trends experienced a sequential improvement of 60 basis points for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to foot traffic to restaurant trends experienced in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025. Our U.S. Foodservice Operations local case growth trends experienced a sequential improvement of 120 basis points during the same time period, outpacing the industry’s foot traffic improvement trends. The macroeconomic environment was similar in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to the two prior fiscal quarters, which has continued to adversely impact consumer sentiment. Despite the current macroeconomic landscape, we expect to grow both sales and net earnings per share in fiscal 2026. We believe the food-away-from-home sector is a healthy, long-term growth market, and Sysco is diversified and well positioned as a market leader in food service.

Sales and Gross Profit Trends

Sales increased 3.2% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Our sales and gross profit performance are influenced by multiple factors, including price, volume, inflation, customer mix and product mix. We experienced a 0.1% increase in U.S. Foodservice Operations case volume in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Our volume growth trends were attributable to national case volume increasing 0.7% and local volume decreasing 0.2% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Our volume reflects our broadline and specialty businesses. Beginning in fiscal 2026, we are now including volumes from our specialty meat business for all periods presented.

We experienced inflation at a rate of 3.4% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, at the total enterprise level, primarily driven by inflation in the meat and seafood categories. We continue to manage inflation by successfully passing on cost increases to our customers in a timely manner. Gross margin increased 13 basis points in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to benefits from our strategic sourcing initiatives.

Total operating expenses were $3.1 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, a 5.3% increase compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Total adjusted operating expenses were $3.0 billion in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, a 4.3% increase as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Operating expenses increased primarily due to sales headcount investments, higher incentive compensation, and costs associated with expanded building capacity, including depreciation expense related to new facilities. Adjusted operating expenses were 14.2% of sales during the first quarter of fiscal 2026, which represents a 14-basis point increase as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, as a result of planned investments in higher growth areas of the business with sales headcount, fleet, and building expansions.

Mergers and Acquisitions

In October 2025, we acquired Fairfax Meadow, a leading specialty meat supplier based in the United Kingdom. This acquisition follows our acquisition of Campbells Prime Meat last fiscal year and positions our team in the United Kingdom to achieve additional growth by leveraging additional specialty meat capabilities geographically. This company’s results will be included within International Foodservice Operations and are not expected to be material to our results of operations.

Strategy

Our purpose is “Connecting the World to Share Food and Care for One Another.” Purpose-driven companies are believed to perform better. We believe our purpose will assist us to grow substantially faster than the foodservice distribution industry and deliver profitable growth through our Recipe for Growth transformation. This growth transformation is supported by strategic pillars that we believe will allow us to better serve our customers, including our digital, products and solutions, supply chain, customer teams, and future horizons strategies.

Our business transformation initiatives are progressing, which include promoting our specialty programs for produce, protein and Italian products, and our customer growth initiatives. From these actions, as a part of our Recipe for Growth, the benefits of our developing capabilities are apparent in the new customers we are winning and in the progress we are making toward increasing market share. We expect that, as our Recipe for Growth matures, the impact on our top-line growth will deliver profitable and consistent growth.

Based on information in Note 13, “Business Segment Information,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Form 10-Q, U.S. Foodservice Operations and International Foodservice Operations, collectively, represented approximately 88.7% of Sysco’s overall sales in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026. U.S. Foodservice Operations and International Foodservice Operations, collectively, represented approximately 97.1% of total segment operating income, in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026. This illustrates that these segments represent a substantial majority of our total segment results when compared to other reportable segments.

Sales

The following table sets forth the percentage and dollar value increase or decrease in the major factors impacting sales as compared to the corresponding prior year period in order to demonstrate the cause and magnitude of change:


	Increase (Decrease)
	13-Week Period
	(Dollars in millions)
Cause of change	Percentage		Dollars
Case volume (1)	0.1	%	$	18
Inflation	2.6		373

Other	0.2		27
Total change in sales	2.9	%	$	418




(1)			Case volumes increased 0.1% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025. This volume increase resulted in a 0.1% increase in the dollar value of sales compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

The sales growth in our U.S. Foodservice Operations was primarily driven by higher inflation. Case volumes from our U.S. Foodservice Operations increased 0.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025. This includes a 0.7% increase in national case volume, partially offset by a 0.2% decrease in local customer case volume in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Operating Income

The decrease in operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025 was driven by an increase in operating expenses, partially offset by gross profit dollar growth and case volume growth.

Gross profit dollars increased in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily as a result of improvements in our strategic sourcing initiatives and the effective management of product cost fluctuations. The estimated change in product costs, an internal measure of inflation or deflation, increased in the first quarter of fiscal 2026.

Gross margin, which is gross profit as a percentage of sales, was 19.10% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, for our U.S. Foodservice Operations, which was a decrease of 3 basis points compared to gross margin of 19.13% in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. This decrease is primarily driven by customer mix, as national case sales volumes outpaced local case sales volumes.

The increase in operating expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, was primarily driven by increases in colleague-related costs, bad debt expense, and other miscellaneous costs.

Sales

The following table sets forth the percentage and dollar value increase or decrease in the major components impacting sales as compared to the corresponding prior year period in order to demonstrate the cause and magnitude of change.


	Increase (Decrease)
	13-Week Period
	(Dollars in millions)
Cause of change	Percentage		Dollars
Inflation	4.5	%	$	173



Foreign currency	2.4		91
Case volume	0.6		15
Impact of divestiture	(3.4)		(117)
Other	0.4		10
Total change in sales	4.5	%	$	172

Sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 increased 4.5% as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to higher inflation, the impact of foreign currency translation, and local case growth. Excluding the impact of the Mexico joint venture, which was divested in the second quarter of fiscal 2025, sales increased 7.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

Operating Income

The increase in operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, was primarily due to growth in local case volumes and success in our strategic sourcing program, partially offset by increases in operating expenses.

The increase in gross profit dollars in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, was primarily attributable to increases in local case volumes and benefits from our strategic sourcing efforts. Local case volumes increased approximately 5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025.

The increase in operating expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025 was primarily due to increases in colleague-related costs and the impact of foreign currency translation.

Results of SYGMA and Other Segment

SYGMA segment sales were 4.1% higher in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily driven by the growth of new customers. We expect SYGMA’s sales growth rates to moderate in fiscal 2026 as we reach the one-year anniversary mark of fiscal 2025’s substantial customer additions. Operating income increased $7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to the growth of new customers and operating efficiencies.

For the operations that are grouped within Other, operating income decreased $5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The operations of this group primarily consist of our hospitality business, Guest Worldwide.

Global Support Center Expenses

Our Global Support Center generally includes all expenses of the corporate office and Sysco’s shared service operations. These expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 increased $12 million, or 5.3%, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to increases in colleague-related costs and higher incentive compensation, partially offset by decreases in insurance costs.

Included in Global Support Center expenses are Certain Items that totaled $29 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, as compared to $19 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Certain Items impacting the first quarter of fiscal 2026 were primarily expenses associated with our business technology transformation initiatives and expenses associated with acquisitions. Certain Items impacting the first quarter of fiscal 2025 were primarily expenses associated with our business technology transformation initiatives and expenses associated with acquisitions.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased $12 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase was primarily due to interest on new senior notes that were issued in the third quarter of fiscal 2025.

Other Income and Expense

Other expense increased $22 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to foreign exchange losses incurred in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. We expect other expense to approximate $65 million for fiscal year 2026.

Net Earnings

Net earnings decreased 2.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to the items noted above for operating income, and interest expense, as well as items impacting our income taxes that are discussed in Note 11, “Income Taxes,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Form 10-Q. Adjusted net earnings, excluding Certain Items, increased 2.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 as compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, primarily due to the effective management of product cost fluctuations.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 were $0.99, a 1.0% decrease from the comparable prior year period amount of $1.00 per share. Diluted earnings per share in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 were $0.99, unchanged from the comparable prior year period amount of $0.99 per share. Adjusted diluted earnings per share, excluding Certain Items, in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 were $1.15, a 5.5% increase from the comparable prior year amount of $1.09 per share.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations


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.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should not be used as a substitute for the most comparable GAAP measure in assessing Sysco’s overall 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.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Highlights

We produced negative free cash flow of $50 million in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026, as compared to positive free cash flow of $8 million in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2025. The decrease in free cash flow is attributable to a decrease in proceeds from sales of plant and equipment and an increase in capital expenditures, partially offset by an increase in cash provided by operating activities. In the table that follows, free cash flow for each period presented is reconciled to net cash provided by operating activities and comparisons of the significant cash flows from the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026 to the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2025 are provided.

(1)			Free cash flow should not be used as a substitute for the most comparable GAAP 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.

Sources and Uses of Cash

Sysco generates cash in the U.S. and internationally. As of September 27, 2025, we had $844 million in cash and cash equivalents, approximately 70% of which was held by our international subsidiaries. Sysco’s strategic objectives are funded primarily by cash from operations and external borrowings. Traditionally, our operations have produced significant cash flow. Due to our strong financial position, we believe we will continue to be able to effectively access capital markets, as needed. Cash is generally allocated to working capital requirements, investments compatible with our overall growth strategy (organic and inorganic), debt management, and shareholder return. The remaining cash balances are invested in high-quality, short-term instruments.

We believe our cash flow from operations, the availability of liquidity under our commercial paper programs and our revolving credit facility, and our ability to access capital from financial markets will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash requirements for more than the next 12 months, while maintaining sufficient liquidity for normal operating purposes.

Cash Flows

Operating Activities

We generated $86 million in cash flows from operations in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026, compared to cash flows from operations of $53 million in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2025. In the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026, these amounts included year-over-year favorable comparisons on working capital of $85 million due to favorable comparisons on accounts receivable and accounts payable, partially offset by an unfavorable comparison in inventory. Accrued expenses also had a favorable comparison, primarily related to lower payments of accrued incentive compensation in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026 in comparison to the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2025. Income tax payments negatively impacted cash flows from operations, as estimated payments made in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026 were higher compared to the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2025.

Investing Activities

Our capital expenditures in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026 consisted primarily of investments in buildings and building improvements, technology equipment, warehouse equipment, and fleet. Our capital expenditures in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026 were $38 million higher than in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2025, primarily due to timing of capital spending. Proceeds from sales of plant and equipment were $24 million in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026, as compared to $77 million in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2025.

Financing Activities

Equity Transactions

Proceeds from exercises of share-based compensation awards were $43 million in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026, as compared to $29 million in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2025. The level of option exercises, and thus proceeds, will vary from period to period and is largely dependent on movements in our stock price and the time remaining before option grants expire.

In May 2021, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program to authorize the repurchase of up to $5.0 billion of the company’s common stock, which will remain available until fully utilized. We repurchased no shares during the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026. As of September 27, 2025, we had a remaining authorization of approximately $1.5 billion. We repurchased no additional shares under our authorization from the end of our fiscal first quarter through October 10, 2025.

Dividends paid in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2026 were $259 million, or $0.54 per share, as compared to $251 million, or $0.51 per share, in the first 13 weeks of fiscal 2025. In August 2025, we declared our regular quarterly dividend for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 of $0.54 per share, which was paid in October 2025.

Debt Activity and Borrowing Availability

Our debt activity, including issuances and repayments, if any, and our borrowing availability are described in Note 7, “Debt,” in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of Part I of this Form 10-Q. Our outstanding borrowings as of September 27, 2025 are also disclosed within that note.

Guarantor Summarized Financial Information

On January 19, 2011, the wholly owned U.S. Broadline subsidiaries of Sysco Corporation, which distribute a full line of food products and a wide variety of non-food products, entered into full and unconditional guarantees of all outstanding senior notes and debentures of Sysco Corporation. All subsequent issuances of senior notes and debentures in the U.S. and borrowings under the company’s $3.0 billion long-term revolving credit facility have also been guaranteed by these subsidiaries. As of September 27, 2025, Sysco had a total of $11.8 billion in senior notes, debentures and borrowings under the long-term revolving credit facility that were guaranteed by these subsidiary guarantors. Our remaining consolidated subsidiaries (non-guarantor subsidiaries) are not obligated under the senior notes indenture, debentures indenture or our long-term revolving credit facility. See Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Liquidity and Capital Resources” contained in our fiscal 2025 Form 10-K for additional information regarding the terms of the guarantees.

Basis of Preparation of the Summarized Financial Information

The summarized financial information of Sysco Corporation (issuer), and certain wholly owned U.S. Broadline subsidiaries (guarantors) (together, the obligor group) is presented on a combined basis with intercompany balances and transactions between entities in the obligor group eliminated. Investments in and equity in the earnings of our non-guarantor subsidiaries, which are not members of the obligor group, have been excluded from the summarized financial information. The obligor group’s amounts due to, amounts due from and transactions with non-guarantor subsidiaries have been presented in separate line items, if they are material to the obligor financials. The following tables include summarized financial information of the obligor group for the periods presented.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Critical accounting estimates are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations. These require our most subjective or complex judgments, often employing the use of estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. We have reviewed with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors the development and selection of the critical accounting estimates and this related disclosure. Our most critical accounting estimates pertain to goodwill and intangible assets, income taxes and company-sponsored pension plans, which are described in Item 7 of our fiscal 2025 Form 10-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our market risks consist of interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange rate risk, fuel price risk and investment risk. For a discussion on our exposure to market risk, see Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks” in our fiscal 2025 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to our market risks since June 28, 2025.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Sysco’s management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 27, 2025. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Sysco’s disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of September 27, 2025, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of such date, Sysco’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 27, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Environmental Matters

Item 103 of SEC Regulation S-K requires disclosure of certain environmental proceedings in which a governmental authority is a party to and when such proceedings involve potential monetary sanctions that Sysco’s management reasonably believes will exceed a specified threshold. Pursuant to recent SEC amendments to this Item, Sysco has chosen a reporting threshold for such proceedings of $1 million. Applying this threshold, there are no material environmental matters to disclose for this reporting period.

From time to time, we may be party to legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. We do not believe there are any pending legal proceedings that, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
