HOUSTON, TEXAS and WHITESTONE, NEW YORK, March 30, 2026 – Sysco (NYSE: SYY) ("Sysco" or the "Company") and Jetro Restaurant Depot, the nation's premier Cash & Carry food wholesaler, jointly announced today that they have entered into a definitive agreement under which Sysco will acquire Jetro Restaurant Depot in a transformative transaction that allows Sysco to enter the high-margin, growing, and resilient Cash & Carry channel. Under the terms of the agreement, Jetro Restaurant Depot shareholders will receive $21.6 billion in cash proceeds and 91.5 million Sysco shares. Based on Sysco's closing share price of $81.80 as of March 27, 2026, this represents a total enterprise value of approximately $29.1 billion, or 14.6x Jetro Restaurant Depot's Operating Income.<sup>1</sup>

Jetro Restaurant Depot is a leading U.S. wholesale Cash & Carry foodservice provider serving smaller, independent restaurants and businesses seeking high-quality food at low prices. Jetro Restaurant Depot's customer group is complementary to Sysco's higher-volume customers seeking delivery and white glove service. A purpose-built one-stop-shop model for chefs and restaurant owners, Jetro Restaurant Depot operates 166 large-format warehouse stores across 35 states that serve more than 725,000 independent restaurants and foodservice operators with a broad assortment of fresh and low-priced products. For calendar year 2025, Jetro Restaurant Depot generated approximately $16 billion in revenue, approximately $2.1 billion in EBITDA, and approximately $1.9 billion in free cash flow, and has maintained a 30-year track record of EBITDA growth.

The Cash & Carry channel is a $60-70 billion addressable market<sup>2</sup> and is the primary source of supply for many smaller independent restaurants and foodservice operators, providing them everyday low prices, seven days a week, with on-demand access to a full selection of fresh, ambient, and frozen foodservice products, and a convenient in-store shopping experience. Cash & Carry is a growing channel that benefits across economic cycles.

"We're thrilled to combine two industry leaders to create a preeminent multi-channel foodservice distribution platform," said Kevin Hourican, Chair of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Sysco. "Together, Sysco and Jetro Restaurant Depot will enhance value for small independent restaurants and the consumers they serve by expanding access to more affordable, fresh food products and delivering more choice and convenience. Jetro Restaurant Depot will benefit from access to Sysco's best-in-class

<sup>1</sup> Based on calendar year 2025.

foodservice supply chain and logistics capabilities and Sysco will benefit from new ways to serve local customers. The combined company will have increased purchasing efficiencies, enabling lower prices for more customers. Even more importantly, we see a long runway of opening new Jetro Restaurant Depot warehouses, bringing the industry leader in affordability to hundreds of new communities and creating thousands of new jobs. This will allow us to create significant value for our company, our customers, and our shareholders."

Hourican continued, "Jetro Restaurant Depot is a best-in-class operator with a differentiated value proposition that is highly complementary and synergistic with Sysco. We have high conviction in Jetro Restaurant Depot's proven model and talented leadership team and look forward to partnering with them to better serve local businesses and restaurants across the country. We are also pleased that Sysco is on track to deliver our 2026 guidance and build on our steady business momentum, including through local performance where we expect to deliver over 3% of local case growth in Q3 2026. I am excited to work with Richard and the talented team at Jetro Restaurant Depot to profitably grow the business."

"Today's announcement is an exciting moment for Jetro Restaurant Depot and a clear recognition of the strength of our business model, and the teams who have built it over the past 50 years," said Stanley Fleishman, Executive Chairman of Jetro Restaurant Depot. "From the start, our focus has been simple and straightforward, in line with the vision of our founder, Nathan Kirsh: to support independent shopkeepers, restaurant owners, and people running independent food businesses who depend on one-stop food service shopping at low prices seven, days a week. Sysco is the best possible partner for our next chapter because they share our growth mindset and bring the systems and national and international supply logistic capabilities to help us grow across the U.S. and beyond. We are extremely excited to be able to offer our full range of low-cost, high-quality, dry and perishable foodservice products to more customers in more markets. We look forward to increasing opportunities for our team, all while staying focused on supporting independent foodservice businesses and the families who run them. Additionally, I look forward to joining Sysco's Board and have tremendous confidence in the long-term growth potential of the combined company."

**Compelling Strategic and Financial Benefits** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Attractive Pro Forma Financial Profile:** The combined
company generated 2025 annual net revenues of nearly $100 billion, approximately $6.4 billion of adjusted EBITDA, and $5.5 billion of
free cash flow, increasing Sysco's revenue by approximately 20%, EBITDA by approximately 45%, and free cash flow by approximately
55%.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Immediately Accretive:** Sysco expects the transaction
to be mid to high single-digit accretive to earnings per share in the first year following close, and low to mid-teens accretive in the
second year following close. Sysco is committed to maintaining a strong balance sheet, its current investment grade credit ratings, and
its dividend, with significant financial flexibility to continue to invest for future growth.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Long-Term Growth Runway and Job Creation:** Leveraging Sysco's expansive supply chain footprint across the U.S., Sysco has high confidence
in the opportunity to open 125+ new Jetro Restaurant Depot locations in key markets across the country over at least the next two
decades. These new stores will provide customers more affordable food options while creating a stable source of retail jobs in these
communities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Better Together Synergies:** Through targeted collaboration that is minimally disruptive to the core Jetro Restaurant Depot and Sysco businesses,
the combination is expected to realize approximately $250 million in annualized net cost synergies within the first three years following
closing and represent approximately 12.5% of Jetro Restaurant Depot's Operating Income. These synergies will be realized primarily
via savings on product procurement and inbound supply chain optimization. Over the medium-term, the combined company sees opportunity
to win additional customers in both businesses through access to an expanded assortment and improved sales and service. That longer-term
value would be accretive to these defined synergies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Extends Sysco into the High-Margin, Growing, and Resilient Cash & Carry Segment:** By adding Jetro Restaurant Depot's national network of 166 Cash & Carry warehouse locations in
35 states, Sysco will enter this attractive industry segment, broaden its customer base of small independent restaurants and food businesses, and
improve its ability to serve local customers.

**Combination to Deliver More Value, Choice, and Convenience to Customers and Communities** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **More Value**: By opening 125+ new Jetro Restaurant Depot warehouses, in part by utilizing Sysco's supply chain, the combination will
bring affordable restaurant and food supplies to more customers and communities nationwide.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Broader Choice:** Customers will benefit from a broader combined product assortment across the Sysco and Jetro Restaurant Depot catalogs, spanning
food & restaurant supplies and various specialty offerings, as well as multiple price tiers from value to premium.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· **Improved Service and Increased Convenience:** Jetro Restaurant Depot customers will benefit from Sysco's best-in-class foodservice supply
chain and logistics capabilities, while Sysco customers will benefit from the same-day shopping offered by Jetro Restaurant Depot's
brick & mortar locations. Together, customers will have access to more fulfillment options to choose from that meet their evolving
needs.

"It has been a privilege to partner with Jetro Restaurant Depot for more than two decades on a remarkable journey of growth. This transformative transaction represents a compelling opportunity that we believe will unlock meaningful long-term value for the combined company. As Sysco shareholders, we have full confidence in the combined company's future and look forward to participating in this next chapter," said Jonathan Sokoloff, Managing Partner of Leonard Green & Partners, L.P."

**Leadership, Governance, and Headquarters**

Upon closing of the transaction, Jetro Restaurant Depot will operate as a standalone business segment within Sysco, maintaining its strong operating model. Jetro Restaurant Depot's leadership team is expected to remain in place under Richard Kirschner, who will report to Hourican. Jetro Restaurant Depot will maintain its headquarters in Whitestone, New York, ensuring continuity for employees, customers, and partners. In addition, two of Jetro Restaurant Depot's current directors, Sir Bradley Fried and Stanley Fleishman, will join the Sysco Board of Directors as the companies move forward together. The companies do not anticipate workforce reductions as a result of the transaction.

**Transaction Details**

The transaction is valued at $29.1 billion. The total consideration represents an acquisition multiple of approximately 14.6x Jetro Restaurant Depot's Operating Income or 13.0x including expected synergies.

Sysco plans to fund the cash portion of the transaction with $21 billion of new debt and hybrid debt, and $1 billion of cash on hand, equity, or equity-linked securities. Upon closing, Sysco will issue approximately 19.1% of its outstanding shares to Jetro Restaurant Depot shareholders, who are expected to own approximately 16% of Sysco's outstanding common stock.

Sysco remains committed to maintaining a strong balance sheet and its current credit ratings. As a result, Sysco is pausing its share repurchase program to prioritize rapid de-leveraging following the acquisition and intends to reduce net leverage by at least 1.0x in the first 24 months post-close. Sysco intends to resume its share repurchase program after making significant progress towards de-leveraging. Sysco remains committed to its long-term net leverage target of approximately 2.75x and to maintaining its current dividend amount and its Dividend Aristocrat status.

The transaction has also been unanimously approved by the Board of Directors of Sysco and the Board of Directors of Jetro Restaurant Depot. The transaction is expected to close by the third quarter of Sysco's fiscal 2027, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals.

**Sysco Reaffirms Full Year 2026 Guidance**

The Company remains confident in its current momentum and ability to deliver on its previously issued guidance in a dynamic operating environment. For fiscal 2026, Sysco is reiterating its outlook for sales growth of 3% to 5% and adjusted EPS to be at the high end of $4.50 to $4.60. Specific to the third quarter 2026, Sysco remains confident in the previously announced consensus outlook for adjusted EPS of approximately $0.94, including USFS local case growth of over 3.0% compared to the prior year, at least 50 bps greater than previously communicated. The 3.0% local growth is 180 bps stronger than our Q2 performance, demonstrating strong momentum in our business.

Sysco is expected to release third quarter fiscal year 2026 full results on Tuesday, April 28, 2026.

**Conference Call & Webcast**

Sysco will host a conference call and audio webcast today at 8:00 a.m. ET to discuss the transaction.

Key factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to: the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of either or both parties to terminate the merger agreement; the risk that regulatory approvals may not be obtained or other closing conditions may not be satisfied in a timely manner or at all, as well as the risk that regulatory approvals are obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated; the risk of other delays in closing the transaction; the possibility that any of the anticipated benefits and projected synergies of the transaction will not be realized or will not be realized within the expected time period; unforeseen or unknown liabilities; Sysco's ability to raise debt on favorable terms or at all; risks related to business disruptions from the proposed transaction that may harm the business or current plans and operations of either or both parties, including disruption of management time from ongoing business operations; credit ratings decline of the combined company following the proposed transaction; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against New Slider Holdco, Inc., Sysco or their directors; risks related to difficulties, inabilities or delays in integrating the parties' businesses; the risk that the proposed transaction and its announcement could have an adverse effect on the market price of the common stock of Sysco; the risk that the proposed transaction and its announcement could have an adverse effect on the ability of either or both parties to retain and hire key personnel or maintain business, contractual or operational relationships, on the parties' operating results and businesses generally; certain restrictions during the pendency of the transaction that may impact Sysco's and Jetro Restaurant Depot's ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; and the effects of industry, market, economic, political or regulatory conditions outside of the parties' control, as well as the impact of geopolitical, economic and market conditions and developments, including changes in global trade policies and tariffs; risks related to Sysco's business initiatives; periods of significant or prolonged inflation or deflation and their impact on Sysco's product costs and profitability generally; risks related to Sysco's efforts to implement its transformation initiatives and meet its other long-term strategic objectives; risk of interruption of supplies and increase in product costs; risks related to changes in consumer eating habits; and the impact of natural disasters or adverse weather conditions, public health crises, adverse publicity or lack of confidence in Sysco's products, and product liability claims. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those indicated in these forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not place undue reliance on any of the forward-looking statements contained herein. For more information on these risks and other concerning factors that could cause actual results to differ from those expressed or forecasted, see Sysco's Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and other filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as otherwise may be required by law.

This communication includes certain measures which are not presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), such as EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow that Sysco believes provide important perspective with respect to underlying business trends. Non-GAAP financial measures are not measures of financial performance in accordance with GAAP and may exclude items that are significant in understanding and assessing our financial results. Non-GAAP measures provide meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors that (1) are indicative of the performance of the company's underlying operations and (2)

facilitate comparisons on a year-over-year basis. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to GAAP measures, and should be considered only as a supplement to, and not as superior to, GAAP measures. The reasons for which management relies on non-GAAP measures, their definitions and reconciliations of historical non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest corresponding GAAP financial measure are included under the "Investors" section of Sysco's website located at <u>investors.sysco.com</u>.

Projected adjusted earnings per share is a non-GAAP financial measure; however, Sysco 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, Sysco cannot provide a quantitative reconciliation of Projected Adjusted EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable effort.

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 . Sysco's management believes that adjusting its operating expenses, operating income, operating margin and net earnings to remove these Certain Items 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 periods presented . Set forth below is a reconciliation of sales, operating expenses, operating income and net earnings to adjusted results for these measures for the periods presented . 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 . 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 tables that follows, free cash flow and the resulting free cash flow conversion have been calculated from EBITDA results and net capital expenditures . 27

Projected International Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Margin and Total Sysco Adjusted EPS Guidance Our international adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin and total Sysco adjusted earnings per share are non - GAAP financial measures ; 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 quantitative reconciliations of projected international adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin and total Sysco adjusted EPS to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure without unreasonable effort . However, we expect to calculate international adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin and total Sysco adjusted earnings per share for future periods in the same manner as the reconciliations provided for the historical periods herein, as noted in our Annual Report on Form 10 - K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission . 31
