Acquisitions and Divestitures

Acquisitions

Jake’s Finer Foods Acquisition—On January 10, 2025, the Company acquired Jake’s Finer Foods, a broadline distributor in Texas, for a purchase price of $92 million subject to holdbacks and adjustments (less the amount of cash received). The acquisition was funded with cash on hand and allows US Foods to further expand its reach into key markets in south Texas. The Jake’s Finer Foods acquisition, reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements commencing from the date of acquisition, did not materially affect the Company’s results of operations or financial position. The Company is in the process of finalizing working capital adjustments for this acquisition. The Company recorded goodwill of $4 million and intangible assets of $5 million for this acquisition. The goodwill recognized from the Jake’s Finer Foods acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes. Jake’s Finer Foods is integrated into the Company’s foodservice distribution network.

Divestitures

Freshway Divestiture—During the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025, the Company completed the sale of the Freshway business for net proceeds of approximately $38 million. The Freshway business processes, repacks, and distributes fresh fruit and vegetables in the eastern half of the U.S. The Company recognized an immaterial loss included within distribution, selling and administrative costs in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The sale of the Freshway business did not represent a strategic shift that had a major effect on the Company’s operations and financial results and, therefore, did not qualify for presentation as discontinued operations.
