Description: SYY Sysco September 29, 2025
Sysco Corporation (NYSE:SYY) is a global foodservice distributor that markets and delivers a broad portfolio of food and non-food items to “away-from-home” venues, operating across the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, France, and other international markets.
The business is organized into four reporting segments: U.S. Foodservice Operations, International Foodservice Operations, SYGMA (specialty and niche product lines), and “Other” (including ancillary services). Its product mix spans frozen, canned, dry, and fresh meat and seafood, dairy, beverages, imported specialties, and fresh produce, as well as paper goods, tableware, cookware, kitchen equipment, and cleaning supplies.
Sysco’s customer base includes restaurants of all sizes, hospitals and nursing facilities, schools and colleges, hotels and motels, industrial caterers, and a variety of other foodservice venues, making it a critical link in the supply chain for the food-away-from-home sector.
Key performance indicators that analysts watch include: (1) FY2024 comparable sales growth of ~4.5% year-over-year, driven by modest recovery in restaurant spending post-pandemic; (2) an adjusted EBITDA margin of roughly 5.8%, reflecting ongoing pressure from rising labor and transportation costs; and (3) a net debt-to-EBITDA ratio near 2.2×, indicating a moderate leverage profile that could constrain or enable future share-repurchase programs. Macro-level drivers such as U.S. consumer discretionary spending trends, food inflation differentials between commodity and finished-goods categories, and the pace of labor-cost inflation in the hospitality industry are material to Sysco’s earnings outlook.
