Description: SW Sodexo January 07, 2026
Sodexo S.A. (ticker SW) is a French-based, globally diversified support-services provider that delivers food-service and facilities-management solutions across North America, Europe and other international markets. Its portfolio spans retail food operations, digital ordering, meal-voucher programs, and a full suite of building-maintenance services-including energy management, HVAC, cleaning, waste handling and space planning-plus venue marketing, event ticketing, healthcare-and-senior care services, and learning-solutions for schools and universities.
Key operational metrics from the most recent fiscal year (FY 2023) show revenue of roughly €20.2 billion, with an adjusted EBITDA margin of about 7.5 %. Growth was led by the North American segment, which posted a 5 % year-over-year increase driven by higher contract renewals and the rollout of Sodexo’s “Live” digital ordering platform. A material economic driver for the business is inflation-linked contract pricing, which cushions margin pressure from rising labor and commodity costs, while ESG-focused clients are increasingly outsourcing facilities management to meet sustainability targets.
For a deeper quantitative view, the ValueRay platform provides a granular breakdown of Sodexo’s valuation metrics and scenario analyses, which can help you assess the trade-off between its stable cash-flow profile and exposure to macro-economic headwinds.
