PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Aramark (NYSE: ARMK) today reported fourth quarter and full year fiscal 2023 results.

"This year represented a significant step forward in achieving our strategic and financial goals," said John Zillmer, Aramark's Chief Executive Officer. "Our hospitality, field-focused culture generated a third consecutive year of strong Net New Business, with rising Revenue and AOI resulting in significant Adjusted EPS growth. Throughout the year, we continued to opportunistically de-lever through diligent cash management and strategic asset optimization. Additionally, we completed a key milestone with the Uniform Services spin-off, which we believe enhances our performance and focus. We could not have accomplished these results without our extraordinary teams around the globe, who exemplify our 'Reach for Remarkable' mindset in all that they do."

Notes:

1Revenue adjusted for the effect of certain acquisitions and currency translation; AOI and Adjusted EPS on a constant-currency basis.

Supplemental business review slides available on Aramark's Investor Relations website.

Global FSS defined as the sum of FSS United States, FSS International, and Corporate reportable segments. Uniform Services defined as Uniform & Career Apparel reportable segment. Adjusted results do not reflect incremental public company costs associated with spin transaction.

Retention and Net New Business calculations exclude Next Level business due to portfolio optimization.

FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS

Consolidated revenue was $4.9 billion in the fourth quarter, a 12% increase year-over-year, driven by net new business, pricing actions, and base business growth. The effect of currency translation increased revenue by $19 million.

Organic revenue, which adjusts for the effect of currency translation, grew 11% year-over-year. Organic revenue growth for Global FSS exceeded 12% versus the fourth quarter last year and Uniform Services increased 5%.

  • FSS United States revenue growth benefited from net new business and pricing actions, as well as strong base business performance led by higher attendance and per capita spending in the Sports & Entertainment business, and favorable volume trends in the Business & Industry ("B&I") sector.
  • FSS International grew revenue across all geographies resulting from net new business, pricing actions, and ongoing base business growth—primarily from a robust events calendar and greater B&I participation rates in Europe, mining activity in South America, and a strong start to the academic year for higher education in Canada.
  • Uniform & Career Apparel increased revenue largely through pricing actions, and growth in adjacency sales, partially offset by the rollback of an energy surcharge that was in effect during the fourth quarter last year.

Operating Income gained 40% year-over-year to $278 million, and AOI grew 28%1 to $339 million, reflecting an operating income margin increase of 115 basis points and an AOI margin increase of 91 basis points1. The effect of currency translation benefited results by $2 million.

Global FSS increased AOI 33%1 compared to the prior year period, resulting in an AOI margin improvement of 94 basis points1 to 6.1%. Performance was driven by operating leverage from increased revenue, continued contract maturity of accounts won in prior years, improved supply chain economics, and disciplined above-unit cost management. Uniform Services increased AOI 15%1 in the quarter resulting in nearly 70 basis points of improvement in AOI margin from the third quarter and 106 basis points1 higher AOI margin than the fourth quarter last year.

Year-over-year profitability improvement was a result of the following segment performance:

  • FSS United States increased driven by the ongoing maturity of previous new business, improved supply chain economics and purchasing initiatives, and disciplined above-unit cost management across the segment, as well as actions taken to close the price-inflation lag within the Education sector and Corrections business.
  • FSS International benefited from scaling new business, pricing, higher base business volumes, improved supply chain economics, and reduced above-unit costs from personnel actions taken earlier in the fiscal year.
  • Uniform & Career Apparel improved through the execution on the strategic initiatives outlined at the Vestis Analyst Day in September.
  • Corporate expenses improved primarily from above-unit cost containment while appropriately supporting the business, as well as lower share-based compensation expense.

FISCAL 2023 SUMMARY

Consolidated revenue was $18.9 billion, a 15% increase year-over-year, driven by net new business, pricing actions, and base business growth. Organic revenue increased 16% year-over-year to $18.9 billion, which adjusted for $186 million from Union Supply Group through the anniversary of its acquisition in June 2023, as well as $207 million of currency translation associated with a stronger dollar compared to prior year. Organic Revenue for Global FSS grew 18% to $16.1 billion, and Uniforms Services increased 5.5% to $2.8 billion.

*FSS International does not include the contribution from AIM Services subsequent to the sale of the non-controlling interest at the beginning of April 2023.

The Company's earnings per share of $2.57 included a net gain on sales of non-controlling equity investments. Adjusted earnings per share increased 50%1 to $1.70, associated with the ongoing focus on profitable growth across the organization.

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 $1.04 billion, a year-over-year increase of $200 million, and Free Cash Flow was $892 million, representing a $174 million improvement compared to the prior year period.

In fiscal 2023, Net cash provided by operating activities was $766 million and Free Cash Flow was $334 million that included a payment of $64 million of deferred payroll taxes associated with the CARES Act and $72 million in spin-off and restructuring related costs that were less than expected due to timing. Before these items, fiscal 2023 Free Cash Flow was $471 million. Favorable year-over-year performance was primarily due to significantly higher operational results and lower working capital.

As a result of the cash flow performance, higher year-over-year earnings, and over $800 million of net debt reduction versus prior year-end, the Company's leverage ratio improved 1.4x to 3.9x at year-end.

Immediately prior to year-end, Aramark received proceeds of $1.5 billion in debt associated with the Uniform Services capital raise in preparation for its spin-off. Subsequent to fiscal year-end, Aramark used the funds to redeem the entire $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of its 6.375% Senior Notes due 2025, resulting in a future interest expense savings of approximately $100 million annually.

DIVIDEND DECLARATION

Given the Company's strengthening financial profile, Aramark's Board of Directors approved a 15% increase to its pro rata portion of the pre-spin quarterly dividend. The dividend of 9.5 cents per common share will be payable on December 8, 2023, to stockholders of record at the close of business on November 28, 2023.

UNIFORM SERVICES SPIN-OFF

Aramark completed the spin-off of its Uniform Services business—now called Vestis—on September 30, 2023, the first day of the Company's fiscal year 2024. The strengthened results of the Uniform Services business in the fourth quarter reflected the strategic priorities outlined at the Vestis Analyst Day in September 2023.

ARAMARK BUSINESS UPDATE

With a growth mindset now firmly in place across the organization, Aramark continued its net new business momentum for the third consecutive year. In fiscal 2023, Annualized Net New Business for the Global FSS business was $582 million, representing 4.3% of its prior year revenue. The Company's performance was a result of high retention rates of 95.5% and strength in new business signings that totaled nearly $1.2 billion across multiple lines of business and geographies. Entering fiscal 2024, Aramark is already off to a strong start and remains confident in the robust sales pipeline for the remainder of the year to achieve its target Net New Business at 4% to 5% of prior year revenue.

Aramark expects its typical "U-shaped" margin seasonality to continue in its Global FSS segments—with margins higher in the first and fourth quarters compared to the second and third quarters.

The Company anticipates increased profitability in the near- and longer-term through:

  • Profitability ramp of new business booked in prior years as a result of operational maturity and efficiencies, following three consecutive strong years of adding new clients;
  • Benefits from early trends related to the slow moderation of inflation, paired with progress in pricing, most notably in the Education sector and Corrections business;
  • Run-rate of improved supply chain economics, as well as incremental optimization opportunities through purchasing, efficiencies from new deals, and benefits from greater scale;
  • Continued rebound of front-line margins as food and labor costs normalize, combined with leveraging a flexible operating model;
  • And, disciplined control and containment of above-unit overhead costs, including leveraging existing resources to support the lines of business in additional ways post-spin.

OUTLOOK

The Company provides its expectations for organic revenue growth, Adjusted Operating Income growth, Adjusted Earnings per Share growth, and Net Debt to Covenant Adjusted EBITDA ("Leverage Ratio") 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 effect of currency translation. The fiscal 2024 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 its full-year performance for fiscal 2024 as follows:

"With the spin-off now complete, fiscal '24 represents a new chapter in Aramark's history," Zillmer continued. "The business is off to a strong start to the year in delivering profitable growth, and we believe it is well positioned for continued top- and bottom-line success. We remain confident in our ability to build upon the momentum we've worked hard to establish, rooted in the hospitality culture and growth mindset that now define all aspects of the organization."

Covenant Adjusted EBITDA

Covenant Adjusted EBITDA represents net income attributable to Aramark stockholders adjusted for interest and other financing costs, net; provision 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 and 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.

We use Adjusted Revenue (Organic), Adjusted Operating Income (including on a constant currency basis), Adjusted Net Income (including on a constant currency and net of interest adjustment basis), Adjusted EPS (including on a constant currency and net of interest adjustment basis), Covenant Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow (including on a before items basis) 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, earnings per share or net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted Revenue (Organic), Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Income, 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.

Some of the factors that we believe could affect or continue to affect our results include without limitation: unfavorable economic conditions; natural disasters, global calamities, climate change, pandemics, energy shortages, sports strikes and other adverse incidents; geopolitical events including, but not limited to, the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and its effects on global supply chains, inflation, volatility and disruption of global financial markets; the failure to retain current clients, renew existing client contracts and obtain new client contracts; a determination by clients to reduce their outsourcing or use of preferred vendors; competition in our industries; increased operating costs and obstacles to cost recovery due to the pricing and cancellation terms of our food and support services contracts; currency risks and other risks associated with international operations, including compliance with a broad range of laws and regulations, including the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act; risks associated with suppliers from whom our products are sourced; disruptions to our relationship with our distribution partners; the contract intensive nature of our business, which may lead to client disputes; the inability to hire and retain key or sufficient qualified personnel or increases in labor costs; our expansion strategy and our ability to successfully integrate the businesses we acquire and costs and timing related thereto; risks associated with the recently completed spin-off of Aramark Uniform Services (our Uniform segment) as an independent publicly traded company to our stockholders; continued or further unionization of our workforce; liability resulting from our participation in multiemployer defined benefit pension plans; laws and governmental regulations including those relating to food and beverages, the environment, wage and hour and government contracting; liability associated with noncompliance with applicable law or other governmental regulations; new interpretations of or changes in the enforcement of the government regulatory framework; increases or changes in income tax rates or tax-related laws; potential liabilities, increased costs, reputational harm, and other adverse effects based on our commitments and stakeholder expectations relating to environmental, social and governance considerations; the failure to maintain food safety throughout our supply chain, food-borne illness concerns and claims of illness or injury; a cybersecurity incident or other disruptions in the availability of our computer systems or privacy breaches; our leverage; variable rate indebtedness that subjects us to interest rate risk; the inability to generate sufficient cash to service all of our indebtedness; debt agreements that limit our flexibility in operating our business; and other factors set forth under the headings "Part I, Item 1A Risk Factors," "Part I, Item 3 Legal Proceedings" and "Part II, Item 7 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and other sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on November 22, 2022 as such factors may be updated from time to time in our other periodic filings with the SEC, which are accessible on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov and which may be obtained by contacting Aramark's investor relations department via its website at www.aramark.com. These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included herein and in our other filings with the SEC. As a result of these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements included herein or that may be made elsewhere from time to time by, or on behalf of, us.
