Net sales still grew 3.8% year over year, and the more compelling story was underneath the top line: Adjusted EBITDA climbed 12.1% to $548.00 million, with margins expanding 40 basis points to 5.4%, as a deliberate mix shift toward higher-margin independent restaurant and healthcare customers, combined with aggressive share repurchases totaling $250.00 million in the quarter, drove Adjusted Diluted EPS 28.0% higher versus a year ago. Chain restaurant volume declined 4.0%, but independent case volume grew 2.7%, reinforcing the strategic pivot. Management responded to the margin momentum by tightening its full-year outlook, raising the floor on Adjusted EBITDA growth to 9.5% from 8% and narrowing Adjusted Diluted EPS growth guidance to 19.5% to 23%, while holding net sales growth steady at 4% to 6%.
Key Takeaways
- • Independent restaurant case volume grew 2.7%, with 2.3% organic growth
- • Healthcare case volume increased 4.9%
- • Hospitality case volume increased 2.4%
- • Food cost inflation of 2.5% contributed to top-line growth
- • Improved cost of goods sold and inventory management boosted gross profit
- • Continued distribution productivity improvement reduced adjusted operating expense growth to 2.6%
- • Actions to streamline administrative processes and costs
- • Accretive share repurchases contributed to 28% Adjusted EPS growth
