Sysco 4Q & FY13 Earnings Results
August 12, 2013

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements made in this presentation or the accompanying earnings call that look forward in time or that express management’s
beliefs, expectations or hopes are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. Such forward-looking statements reflect the views of management at the time such statements are made and are subject to a
number of risks, uncertainties, estimates, and assumptions that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations.
These statements include our plans and expectations related to and the expected costs, benefits and timing of, our business
transformation initiatives, and expectations regarding business growth and foodservice industry trends. The success of our business
transformation initiatives and other business plans are subject to the general risks associated with our business, including the risk of
interruption of supplies due to lack of long-term contracts, intense competition, severe weather, crop conditions, work stoppages,
inflation risks, the impact of fuel prices, adverse publicity, and labor issues. Risks and uncertainties impacting our business and the
foodservice industry include risks impacting the economy generally, including the risks that the current general economic conditions will
deteriorate, or that consumer confidence in the economy may not increase and decreases in consumer spending, particularly on food-
away-from-home, may not reverse. Our ability to meet our long-term strategic objectives to grow the profitability of our business
depends largely on the success of our Business Transformation Project, and the risk exists that the project and its various components
may not be successfully implemented and may not provide the anticipated benefits. Also, there are other risks related to our project,
including that the expected costs of our Business Transformation Project may be greater or less than currently expected because we
may encounter the need for changes in design or revisions of the project calendar and budget, including the incurrence of expenses at
an earlier or later time than currently anticipated; the risk that our business and results of operations may be adversely affected if we
experience operating problems, scheduling delays, cost overages or limitations on the extent of the business transformation during the
ERP implementation and deployment process; and the risk of adverse effects if the ERP system, and the associated process changes, do
not prove to be cost effective or result in the cost savings and other benefits that we anticipate. Beginning in fiscal 2011, we have taken
additional time to test and improve the underlying ERP system prior to larger scale development, and these actions have caused a delay
in the project. We have temporarily halted the deployment of certain components of our ERP system as we have identified areas of
improvement that we want to address before we continue fully deploying to additional locations. We may experience further delays,
cost overages and/or operating problems as we address these areas of improvement or when we deploy the complete system on a
larger scale. Planned deployments in the coming quarters are dependent upon the success of current ERP refinement efforts and plans
are subject to change at any time based on management’s subjective evaluation of our overall business needs. Other aspects of our
business transformation initiatives, including our category management initiative, our cost transformation initiative and our product cost
initiative, may fail to provide the expected benefits in a timely fashion, if at all. Capital expenditures may vary from those projected
based on changes in business plans and other factors, including risks related to the implementation of our Business Transformation
Project and our regional distribution centers, the timing and successful completions of acquisitions, construction schedules and the
possibility that other cash requirements could result in delays or cancellations of capital spending. We may not realize the benefits of
acquisitions as soon as expected, if at all, and the successful integration of acquisitions into our business may not occur or may require
the expenditure of additional resources. Potential acquisitions may not close, or may be delayed, because of factors beyond our control,
including the need for regulatory approvals. Fuel expense may vary from projections based on fluctuations in fuel costs, which are
impacted by general economic conditions beyond our control. In the past, increased fuel prices have significantly increased our costs
and reduced consumers’ demand for meals served away from home. For a discussion of additional factors impacting Sysco’s business,
see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, the Company’s subsequent filings with the SEC, and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K to be filed shortly for the
year ended June 29, 2013. Sysco does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements.

Cost per Case1
$ Change FY13 vs. FY12
The decline in cost per
case from FY12 was
primarily due to:
 Business
Transformation
Benefits
Partially offset by:
 Increased delivery
costs
 In conjunction with Business Transformation, several key initiatives
impacted our sales organization
 Sales management structure was flattened
 Rolled out the CRM module
 We adjusted the compensation plans for MAs
 We reduced the number of unproductive sales territories
 Sales organization changes included positive impacts as well as
opportunities for improvement
 Changes resulted in cost benefits
 However, level and pace of change led to uneven execution
across all markets
 Impacts have largely been absorbed

our general ledger accounting functions for all U.S. Broadline locations
 By the end of 1Q14, we expect to complete the rollout of the SAP Human
Resources module to all U.S. Broadline locations

Sysco’s results of operations are impacted by certain items which include charges from restructuring our executive retirement plans, charges
from the withdrawal from multiemployer pension plans, severance charges, one-time acquisition-related charges and charges from facility
closures. Management believes that adjusting its operating expenses, operating income, net earnings and diluted earnings per share to
remove these certain items provides an important perspective with respect to our results and provides meaningful supplemental information
to both management and investors that removes these items which are difficult to predict and are often unanticipated, and which, as a result
are difficult to include in analyst's financial models and our investors' expectations with any degree of specificity. Sysco believes the adjusted
totals facilitate comparison on a year-over-year basis.
Sysco’s results of operations are further impacted by costs from our multi-year Business Transformation Project. Management believes that
further adjusting its operating expenses, operating income, net earnings and diluted earnings per share to remove the impact of the Business
Transformation Project expenses provides an important perspective with respect to underlying business trends and results and provides
meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors that is indicative of the performance of the company’s underlying
operations and facilitates comparison on a year-over year basis.
The company uses these non-GAAP measures when evaluating its financial results as well as for internal planning and forecasting purposes.
These financial measures should not be used as a substitute in assessing the company’s results of operations for the periods presented. An
analysis of any non-GAAP financial measure should be used in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. As a result, in
the tables that follow, each period presented is adjusted to remove the certain items noted above. Each period has been further adjusted to
remove expenses related to the Business Transformation Project.

FY13 Non-GAAP Reconciliation
40
Free cash flow represents net cash provided from operating activities less purchases 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 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. We do not mean to imply that free cash flow is
necessarily available for discretionary expenditures, however, 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 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 table
that follows, free cash flow for each period presented is reconciled to net cash provided by operating activities.

4 q13 earnings final_final_8.12.13

  • 1. Sysco 4Q & FY13 Earnings Results August 12, 2013
  • 2. 2 Forward-Looking Statements Statements made in this presentation or the accompanying earnings call that look forward in time or that express management’s beliefs, expectations or hopes are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements reflect the views of management at the time such statements are made and are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, estimates, and assumptions that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations. These statements include our plans and expectations related to and the expected costs, benefits and timing of, our business transformation initiatives, and expectations regarding business growth and foodservice industry trends. The success of our business transformation initiatives and other business plans are subject to the general risks associated with our business, including the risk of interruption of supplies due to lack of long-term contracts, intense competition, severe weather, crop conditions, work stoppages, inflation risks, the impact of fuel prices, adverse publicity, and labor issues. Risks and uncertainties impacting our business and the foodservice industry include risks impacting the economy generally, including the risks that the current general economic conditions will deteriorate, or that consumer confidence in the economy may not increase and decreases in consumer spending, particularly on food- away-from-home, may not reverse. Our ability to meet our long-term strategic objectives to grow the profitability of our business depends largely on the success of our Business Transformation Project, and the risk exists that the project and its various components may not be successfully implemented and may not provide the anticipated benefits. Also, there are other risks related to our project, including that the expected costs of our Business Transformation Project may be greater or less than currently expected because we may encounter the need for changes in design or revisions of the project calendar and budget, including the incurrence of expenses at an earlier or later time than currently anticipated; the risk that our business and results of operations may be adversely affected if we experience operating problems, scheduling delays, cost overages or limitations on the extent of the business transformation during the ERP implementation and deployment process; and the risk of adverse effects if the ERP system, and the associated process changes, do not prove to be cost effective or result in the cost savings and other benefits that we anticipate. Beginning in fiscal 2011, we have taken additional time to test and improve the underlying ERP system prior to larger scale development, and these actions have caused a delay in the project. We have temporarily halted the deployment of certain components of our ERP system as we have identified areas of improvement that we want to address before we continue fully deploying to additional locations. We may experience further delays, cost overages and/or operating problems as we address these areas of improvement or when we deploy the complete system on a larger scale. Planned deployments in the coming quarters are dependent upon the success of current ERP refinement efforts and plans are subject to change at any time based on management’s subjective evaluation of our overall business needs. Other aspects of our business transformation initiatives, including our category management initiative, our cost transformation initiative and our product cost initiative, may fail to provide the expected benefits in a timely fashion, if at all. Capital expenditures may vary from those projected based on changes in business plans and other factors, including risks related to the implementation of our Business Transformation Project and our regional distribution centers, the timing and successful completions of acquisitions, construction schedules and the possibility that other cash requirements could result in delays or cancellations of capital spending. We may not realize the benefits of acquisitions as soon as expected, if at all, and the successful integration of acquisitions into our business may not occur or may require the expenditure of additional resources. Potential acquisitions may not close, or may be delayed, because of factors beyond our control, including the need for regulatory approvals. Fuel expense may vary from projections based on fluctuations in fuel costs, which are impacted by general economic conditions beyond our control. In the past, increased fuel prices have significantly increased our costs and reduced consumers’ demand for meals served away from home. For a discussion of additional factors impacting Sysco’s business, see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2012, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Company’s subsequent filings with the SEC, and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K to be filed shortly for the year ended June 29, 2013. Sysco does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements.

Management believes that adjusting its operating expenses, operating income, net earnings and diluted earnings per share to remove these certain items provides an important perspective with respect to our results and provides meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors that removes these items which are difficult to predict and are often unanticipated, and which, as a result are difficult to include in analyst's financial models and our investors' expectations with any degree of specificity. Sysco believes the adjusted totals facilitate comparison on a year-over-year basis. Sysco’s results of operations are further impacted by costs from our multi-year Business Transformation Project. Management believes that further adjusting its operating expenses, operating income, net earnings and diluted earnings per share to remove the impact of the Business Transformation Project expenses provides an important perspective with respect to underlying business trends and results and provides meaningful supplemental information to both management and investors that is indicative of the performance of the company’s underlying operations and facilitates comparison on a year-over year basis.

  • 40. FY13 Non-GAAP Reconciliation 40 Free cash flow represents net cash provided from operating activities less purchases 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 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. We do not mean to imply that free cash flow is necessarily available for discretionary expenditures, however, 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 in assessing the company’s liquidity for the periods presented.
