Rhea AI SYY FY2026 2026-08-21

Revenue scale is expanding, but thin operating margins and capital allocation still define the business model.

Earnings quality is stronger than the net margin suggests: FY2026 operating cash flow was $2.6B versus net income of $1.8B. Free cash flow reached $1.9B, up from $1.6B in FY2025 despite nearly flat operating income, so the latest improvement reflects cash conversion and reinvestment timing more than operating expansion.

FY2026 revenue reached $84.6B while operating margin was only 3.7%, indicating that additional scale has not produced wider operating economics. Gross margin was 18.5% versus a 2.1% net margin, showing how little of gross profit survives below the operating line.

The balance-sheet posture remains highly debt-funded: FY2026 liabilities were $25.7B against $2.7B of equity. Debt-to-equity fell from 6.8x to 4.6x from FY2025 to FY2026, an equity-led improvement within a still-leveraged structure.

Financial Health Score 50/100

Scored against operating companies for FY2026. Each of the six dimensions is a percentile rank within that peer group; the overall is their average, with missing dimensions counted as zero out of six. A high score means strong standing among peers, not absolute cross-industry strength. How this score is calculated →

Health score ≠ stock price. This rates the quality of Sysco's business: profitability, growth, balance sheet strength. It doesn't tell you whether the stock is a good buy at today's price. Not financial advice. Use it alongside valuation analysis and your own research.

Profitability

Sysco has an operating margin of 3.7%, meaning the company retains $4 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This results in a moderate score of 64/100, indicating healthy but not exceptional operating efficiency. This is down from 3.8% the prior year.

Growth

Sysco's revenue grew a modest 3.9% year-over-year to $84.6B. This slow but positive growth earns a score of 51/100.

Leverage

Sysco has elevated debt relative to equity (D/E of 4.62), meaning the company relies heavily on borrowed funds. This high leverage results in a low score of 24/100, reflecting increased financial risk.

Liquidity

Sysco's current ratio of 1.28 indicates adequate short-term liquidity, earning a score of 32/100. The company can meet its near-term obligations, though with limited headroom.

Cash Flow

Sysco has a free cash flow margin of 2.3%, earning a moderate score of 37/100. The company generates positive cash flow after capital investments, but with room for improvement.

Returns

Sysco earns a strong 65.9% return on equity (ROE), meaning it generates $66 of profit for every $100 of shareholders' equity. This efficient capital use earns a returns score of 89/100. This is down from 99.9% the prior year.

Piotroski F-Score Neutral

6/9

Sysco passes 6 of 9 financial strength tests. 3 of 4 profitability signals pass, 2 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, 1 of 2 efficiency signals pass.

Earnings Quality Cash-Backed

1.50x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Sysco generates $1.50 in operating cash flow ($2.6B OCF vs $1.8B net income). This indicates profits are well-supported by actual cash generation, not accounting adjustments.
