Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Legal Proceedings

Sysco is engaged in various legal proceedings that have arisen but have not been fully adjudicated. The likelihood of loss for these legal proceedings, based on definitions within contingency accounting literature, ranges from remote to reasonably possible to probable. When probable and reasonably estimable, the losses have been accrued. Although the final results of legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, based on estimates of the range of potential losses associated with these matters, management does not believe the ultimate resolution of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect upon the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the company.

We have been pursuing claims against a variety of vendors from which the company purchased products. To mitigate the risk of incurring significant legal fees on these claims without any ultimate gain, in calendar 2019 and 2020, we entered into agreements with a third party whereby Sysco secured a minimum amount of cash proceeds from the third party in exchange for assigning to the third party the rights to a portion of the future litigation proceeds. At the time of receipt of these cash proceeds, the amounts were deferred in “Other long-term liabilities.”

In June 2023, an agreement was reached in which we assigned all remaining claims against these vendors to the third party. As a result, Sysco is no longer obligated to pursue litigation against these vendors and therefore previous deferred proceeds were recognized within “Other expense (income), net.” In total, this agreement resulted in $122 million being recognized in “Other expense (income), net” in June 2023.

Other Commitments

Sysco has committed to aggregate product purchases for resale in order to benefit from a centralized approach to purchasing. A majority of these agreements expire within one year; however, certain agreements have terms through fiscal 2030. These agreements commit the company to a minimum volume at various pricing terms, including fixed pricing, variable pricing or a combination thereof. Minimum amounts committed to as of June 28, 2025 totaled approximately $22.4 billion. Minimum amounts committed to by year are as follows:


	Amount
	(In millions)
2026	$	10,566
2027	6,843
2028	4,253
2029	679
2030	93

We have contracts with various third-party service providers to receive information technology services and warehouse management services. The services have been committed for periods up to fiscal 2036 and may be extended. As of June 28, 2025, the total remaining cost of the services over that period is expected to be approximately $184 million. A portion of this committed amount may be reduced by Sysco utilizing less than estimated resources and can be increased by Sysco

utilizing more than estimated resources. Certain agreements allow adjustments for inflation. Sysco may also cancel a portion or all of the services provided subject to termination fees that decrease over time. If Sysco were to terminate all of the services in fiscal 2026, the estimated termination fees incurred in fiscal 2026 would be approximately $108 million.
