Consolidated revenue reached 111% and organic revenue reached 113% of pre-COVID levels, driven by broad-based net new business, pricing, and ongoing base recovery.

*A 53rd week of operations during fiscal 2020 impacted Q4 '21 Revenue Change %

• FSS United States organic revenue increased 26% compared to the fourth quarter last year, primarily due to the following contributors in each sector:

Sector	Q4 Revenue Activity
Education	Strong start to the new academic year that commenced at the end of the quarter, following a typical seasonal slowdown in the summer months. Additional pricing actions have been implemented, as appropriate, for board plans and on-campus retail outlets.
Sports, Leisure & Corrections	Sports & Entertainment maintained high attendance levels with better-than-historic per capita spending. Destinations had greater guest activity and Corrections reported strong growth led by a record level of new business wins.
Business & Industry	Continued steady progress as return-to-office gained momentum across the portfolio, particularly in September, providing customized solutions tailored to client needs.
Healthcare	Experienced increased patient and retail activity, as well as significantly higher net growth from newly awarded contracts, improved retention rates, and additional services.
Facilities & Other	Supported ongoing demand in core business offerings at existing client locations, in addition to a strong level of new account wins.

• FSS International grew organic revenue 39% year-over-year in the fourth quarter, driven by higher per capita spending at sports and entertainment venues, particularly in Europe, and increased business & industry activity across the portfolio. Similar to FSS U.S., education internationally was largely closed in the summer and resumed activity at high levels with the start of the fall semester. Consistent multi-year net new business performance continued to drive strong results in the segment.
• Uniform & Career Apparel organic revenue increased 8% year-over-year in the fourth quarter, driven by strength in both recurring rental revenue growth and adjacency services.

Total Company	$4,390M	$3,551M	24%	26%
Difference between Change (%) and Organic Revenue Change (%) reflects the effects of certain acquisitions and currency translation. May not total due to rounding.

Operating Income grew 50% year-over-year to $198 million and Adjusted Operating Income (AOI) improved 62%¹ to $267 million, resulting in an AOI margin of 6.2%. The effect of currency translation had an approximate 10 basis point impact that led to a constant currency AOI margin of 6.1%, a year-over-year increase of 136 basis points. Improvement was due to operating leverage from increased sales volumes and effective cost management, partially offset by the impact of inflation as well as the profitability ramp of meaningfully higher levels of new business and related start-up costs.

Significant year-over-year AOI growth and margin expansion was broad-based across all operating segments:

• FSS United States AOI increased 60%¹, reflecting an AOI margin improvement of 150 bps¹, primarily driven by operating cost management across the portfolio and revenue recovery, particularly in Sports & Entertainment and Business & Industry.
• FSS International AOI grew 105%¹ and expanded AOI margins by 114 bps¹ as a result of greater client activity across geographies and the benefit from previously implemented cost savings actions.
• Uniform & Career Apparel AOI increased 22%¹ with double-digit AOI margins higher by 125 bps¹ due to improved operational efficiencies, progress in route-based optimization, and strength in adjacency services.
• Corporate AOI remained relatively unchanged year-over-year with overhead costs tightly managed to support the business as revenue increased.

FOURTH QUARTER GAAP SUMMARY

Fourth quarter fiscal 2022 GAAP results improved across all metrics compared to the prior year period. On a GAAP basis, revenue was $4.4 billion, operating income was $198 million, net income attributable to Aramark stockholders was $76 million, and diluted earnings per share were $0.29. These results included $61 million of revenue from the acquisition of Union Supply Group. Comparatively, fourth quarter fiscal 2021 revenue was $3.6 billion, operating income was $132 million, net income attributable to Aramark stockholders was $35 million, and diluted earnings per share were $0.14. A reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP measures is included in the Appendix.

FISCAL 2022 SUMMARY

On a GAAP basis, revenue was $16.3 billion, operating income was $628 million, net income attributable to Aramark stockholders was $194 million, and diluted earnings per share were $0.75. These results included $333 million of revenue related to the acquisitions of Next Level Hospitality and Union Supply Group, collectively. Comparatively, fiscal 2021 revenue was $12.1 billion, operating income was $191 million, net loss attributable to Aramark stockholders was $91 million, and diluted loss per share were $0.36.

Organic Revenue of $16.3 billion for the year sequentially increased each quarter relative to pre-COVID levels, reaching 113% in the fourth quarter. Adjusted Operating Income grew 169%¹ to $780 million and resulted in an AOI margin of 4.9% on a constant-currency basis, a 243 bps increase compared to fiscal 2021.

CURRENCY

In the fourth quarter, the effect of currency translation decreased reported revenue by $138 million, operating income by $5 million, net income by $5 million, and earnings per share by $0.01. For fiscal 2022, the effect of currency translation decreased reported revenue by $310 million, operating income by $13 million, net income by $10 million, and earnings per share by $0.04.

CASH FLOW AND CAPITAL STRUCTURE

Consistent with the typical quarterly cadence of the business, the fourth quarter generated a significant cash inflow. Net cash provided by operating activities was $836 million and Free Cash Flow was $717 million.

In fiscal 2022, Net cash provided by operating activities was $694 million compared to $657 million last fiscal year and Free Cash Flow was $330 million compared to $282 million last fiscal year. The favorable year-over-year performance was the result of significantly improved operational results and slightly lower capital expenditures, partially offset by higher working capital associated with increased revenue.

Strong cash flow generation, combined with significantly higher earnings performance, resulted in an improved leverage ratio of 5.3x, compared to 7.4x a year ago. At year-end, cash availability totaled over $1.8 billion.

DIVIDEND DECLARATION

As announced on November 8, 2022, the Company's Board of Directors approved a quarterly dividend of 11 cents per share of common stock. The dividend will be payable on December 5, 2022, to stockholders of record at the close of business on November 22, 2022.

BUSINESS UPDATE

Aramark drove strong business performance through record-level Net New Business, pricing, and ongoing base revenue recovery, while navigating a complex operating environment.

The Company's strong growth performance was broad-based, coming from multiple lines of business and geographies, as well as from clients both large and small. Annualized gross new business wins exceeded $1.6 billion—representing 10% of pre-COVID annual revenue—and the annual retention rate remained above 95% for the second consecutive year. Collectively, this resulted in $790 million of Net New Business, more than 50% higher than fiscal 2021 and over 8.5x greater than the historical five-year average prior to last fiscal year. At nearly 5% of pre-COVID revenue, this level of Net New Business achieved is already at the top end of the multi-year target range provided at Aramark's Analyst Day. The Company expects to sustain its growth momentum into fiscal 2023.

Aramark continued to strategically manage the current inflationary environment by utilizing various actions available across the food, labor, and direct cost categories, and worked with clients to implement targeted pricing actions, where appropriate, to offset the impact on operational profitability. The Company is confident in its ability to drive continued margin progression that will ultimately exceed pre-COVID levels.

UNIFORM SERVICES SPIN-OFF

Since its announcement in May, Aramark has made significant progress in anticipation of the separation of the Uniform Services business, including hiring key executives to complement the Uniform leadership team, identifying candidates for the new Board of Directors, and preparing carve-out financials. Aramark expects to complete the transaction under the terms of its existing debt agreements. The Company maintains its leverage target provided at Aramark's Analyst Day and anticipates that its prudent capital structure will position both businesses to execute their respective strategies operating as two industry-leading, independent, publicly traded companies. The transaction, which is intended to be tax-free to Aramark and its stockholders, is expected to occur in the second half of fiscal 2023.

OUTLOOK

The Company provides its expectations for organic revenue growth, Adjusted Operating Income, and Free Cash Flow on a non-GAAP basis, and does not provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking non-GAAP measures to GAAP due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including adjustments that could be made for the impact of the change in fair value related to certain gasoline and diesel agreements and other charges and the effect of currency translation. The fiscal 2023 outlook reflects management's current assumptions regarding numerous evolving factors that are difficult to accurately predict, including those discussed in the Risk Factors set forth in the Company's filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

Aramark currently expects the following full-year total Company performance for fiscal 2023:

• Organic revenue growth between +11% and +13% driven by Net New Business, pricing, and ongoing base recovery;
• Adjusted Operating Income (AOI) growth of +34% to +39%;
• Free Cash Flow in a range of $475 million to $525 million, before the payment of deferred payroll taxes associated with the CARES Act as well as spin-off and restructuring related costs; and
• Leverage ratio between 4.0x and 4.5x by the end of the fiscal year.

Zillmer added. “We enter fiscal 2023 with excellent momentum and remain intently focused on delivering upon our growth strategies that are expected to result in significant value for our clients, employees, and shareholders. Aramark is well-poised to continue to win new business, drive operating efficiencies, and leverage enhanced financial flexibility for sustained success, while remaining committed to providing world-class service for clients.”

Adjusted Revenue (Organic)

Adjusted Revenue (Organic) represents revenue growth, adjusted to eliminate the effect of certain material acquisitions and divestitures, the estimated impact of the 53rd week and the impact of currency translation.

Adjusted Operating Income

Adjusted Operating Income represents operating income adjusted to eliminate the change in amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets; the impact of the change in fair value related to certain gasoline and diesel agreements; severance and other charges; the effect of certain material acquisitions; merger and integration related charges; spin-off related charges and other items impacting comparability.

Adjusted Operating Income (Constant Currency)

Adjusted Operating Income (Constant Currency) represents Adjusted Operating Income adjusted to eliminate the impact of currency translation.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss)

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) represents net income (loss) attributable to Aramark stockholders adjusted to eliminate the change in amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets; the impact of changes in the fair value related to certain gasoline and diesel agreements; severance and other charges; the effect of certain material acquisitions; merger and integration related charges; spin-off related charges; gain on an equity investment; loss on defined benefit pension plan termination; the effect of refinancings on interest and other financing costs, net, less the tax impact of these adjustments; the impact of tax legislation and other items impacting comparability. The tax effect for adjusted net income (loss) for our United States earnings is calculated using a blended United States federal and state tax rate. The tax effect for adjusted net income (loss) in jurisdictions outside the United States is calculated at the local country tax rate.

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) (Constant Currency)

Adjusted Net Income (Loss) (Constant Currency) represents Adjusted Net Income (Loss) adjusted to eliminate the impact of currency translation.

Adjusted EPS

Adjusted EPS represents Adjusted Net Income (Loss) divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

Adjusted EPS (Constant Currency)

Adjusted EPS (Constant Currency) represents Adjusted EPS adjusted to eliminate the impact of currency translation.

Covenant Adjusted EBITDA

Covenant Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) attributable to Aramark stockholders adjusted for interest and other financing costs, net; provision (benefit) for income taxes; depreciation and amortization and certain other items as defined in our debt agreements required in calculating covenant ratios and debt compliance. We also use Net Debt for our ratio to Covenant Adjusted EBITDA, which is calculated as total long-term borrowings less cash, cash equivalents and short-term marketable securities.

Free Cash Flow

Free Cash Flow represents net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less net purchases of property and equipment and other. Management believes that the presentation of free cash flow provides useful information to investors because it represents a measure of cash flow available for distribution among all the security holders of the Company.

Net New Business

Net New Business is an internal statistical metric used to evaluate our new sales and retention performance. The calculation is defined as the annualized value of gross new business less the annualized value of lost business.

We use Adjusted Revenue (Organic), Adjusted Operating Income (including on a constant currency basis), Adjusted Net Income (Loss) (including on a constant currency basis), Adjusted EPS (including on a constant currency basis), Covenant Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow as supplemental measures of our operating profitability and to control our cash operating costs. We believe these financial measures are useful to investors because they enable better comparisons of our historical results and allow our investors to evaluate our performance based on the same metrics that we use to evaluate our performance and trends in our results. These financial metrics are not measurements of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Our presentation of these metrics has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. You should not consider these measures as alternatives to revenue, operating income, net income (loss), or earnings (loss) per share, determined in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted Revenue (Organic), Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted EPS, Covenant Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow as presented by us may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies because not all companies use identical calculations.
