Base and Bull scenarios

Base65%

Price target

$86.19

+11.2% from spot

Under the base case, Sysco compounds steadily as North America's leading broadline foodservice distributor. Core U.S. Foodservice Operations maintain route density and commercial momentum, growing case volumes at 2.5-3.0% annually. Supply chain expense productivity keeps cost inflation below top-line growth, allowing consolidated operating margin to expand from 3.66% to 3.90% by FY2031. Free cash flow conversion remains above $1.9 billion annually, supporting steady dividend growth, balanced reinvestment, and gradual deleveraging toward the base intrinsic fair value of $86.19.

Consolidated revenue expands from $84,553,000,000 in FY2026 to $92,196,280,045 in FY2028 and $103,408,159,026 by FY2031.
Operating margin expands gradually from 3.66% in FY2026 to 3.75% in FY2028 and 3.90% in FY2031.
Reinvestment rate scales from 12% in FY2027 to 15% of NOPAT by FY2031.
Computed cost of equity of 7.9790% and WACC of 7.0896%.
Terminal growth rate of 2.50% and terminal P/E multiple of 16.0x.

Bull15%

Price target

$108.90

+40.5% from spot

In the bull case, accelerated adoption of inventory forecasting and warehouse automation releases substantial working capital cash, while international foodservice margins converge toward domestic levels. Operating margins surpass 4.00% and EPS compounding accelerates toward 8.5% annually, enabling rapid balance sheet deleveraging, resumption of share repurchases, and multiple expansion toward the upper valuation boundary of $108.90.

Inventory forecasting accuracy and warehouse automation unlock $250 million per inventory day in working capital cash.
Consolidated operating margin exceeds 4.00% driven by European margin convergence toward domestic profitability.
Annual EPS growth reaches 7.38% to 8.50%.
Exit valuation expands to 18.5x terminal P/E.
