Forward - Looking Statements 2 This presentation contains “forward - looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27 A of the Securities Act of 1933 , as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21 E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 , as amended . Words such as “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “seeks,” “aims,” “plans,” “assumes,” “estimates,” “projects,” “should,” “would,” “could,” “may,” “will,” “shall” or variations of such words are generally part of forward - looking statements . Forward - looking statements are not historical facts . They are made based on management’s current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects upon Sysco Corporation (“Sysco”) and its consolidated subsidiaries . Forward - looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain, such as statements about the expected timing and completion of the proposed transaction with Jetro Restaurant Depot, the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction (including synergies), and plans and expectations for the combined company, including regarding its results of operations and financial conditions, leadership composition, share repurchases, dividend level, credit ratings and leverage ratio, as well as statements regarding Sysco’s future financial performance and results, including its expectations regarding its future growth, including growth in sales and earnings per share, and other statements that are not historical facts . All such forward - looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance and are based upon current plans, estimates, expectations and ambitions that are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions, many of which are beyond the control of the parties, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in such forward - looking statements . 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 Sysco Holdings Corporation (“Sysco Holdings”), 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 and foreign conflicts ; risks related to Sysco’s business initiatives ; periods of significant or prolonged inflation or deflation and their impact on Sysco’s product costs, volume, foot traffic and profitability generally ; risks related to Sysco’s efforts to implement its transformation initiatives and meet its other long - term strategic objectives ; risks 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 Sysco undertakes 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 presentation 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, Net Debt, Free Cash Flow, Free Cash Flow Conversion, and Operating Income Adjusted for Certain Items, 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 in slides 29 through 48 of this presentation . IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING THE TRANSACTION AND WHERE TO FIND IT In connection with the proposed transaction, Sysco caused Sysco Holdings to file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S - 4 which includes a prospectus of Sysco Holdings (the “prospectus”) .

NON - GAAP RECONCILIATIONS 29
Impact of Certain Items 30 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 . Adjustments provided herein for fiscal year 2026 results of operations also remove the impact of a charge associated with a legal matter, amortization expense associated with debt issuance costs on a bridge loan facility, and a loss on deal contingent rate lock transactions entered into to mitigate interest rate risk on future permanent debt that could potentially be issued to finance the purchase of Jetro Restaurant Depot . No similar charges were applicable in fiscal year 2025 or fiscal year 2024 . Adjustments provided herein for fiscal year 2025 results of operations also remove the impact of a goodwill impairment charge . No similar charge was applicable in fiscal year 2026 or fiscal year 2024 . 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, interest expense, other (income) expense, 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 , fiscal year 2025 , and fiscal year 2024 . Set forth below is a reconciliation of sales, operating expenses, operating income, interest expense, other (income) expense, 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 . The non - GAAP financial measures shown in the following tables should not be used as a substitute for the most comparable GAAP financial measures 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 . Illustrative pro forma results are included, which show the impact of the combination of Sysco and Restaurant Depot, of which some metrics are Non - GAAP metrics .

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 .
Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization 40 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 .
