Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Form 4 shows KLA Corp. (KLAC) EVP & CFO Bren D. Higgins settling tax withholdings triggered by scheduled RSU vesting, not an open-market trade. Two Code 鈥淔鈥� transactions were reported:
- 08/03/25: 722.381 shares withheld at $886.64 after 25 % of a 5,828-unit 2023 RSU grant vested.
- 08/04/25: 738.743 shares withheld at the same price following 25 % vesting of a 5,961-unit 2022 RSU grant.
Post-withholding, Higgins directly owns 23,182.006 KLAC shares, including 13,213.912 unvested RSUs. Because Code 鈥淔鈥� indicates share retention for taxes, the filing is routine and signals no directional change in insider sentiment or corporate outlook.
Il modulo 4 mostra che Bren D. Higgins, EVP e CFO di KLA Corp. (KLAC), ha regolato le ritenute fiscali generate dal vesting programmato delle RSU, non da una vendita sul mercato aperto. Sono state segnalate due transazioni con codice 鈥淔鈥�:
- 03/08/25: 722,381 azioni trattenute a 886,64 $ dopo il vesting del 25% di un grant RSU 2023 di 5.828 unit脿.
- 04/08/25: 738,743 azioni trattenute allo stesso prezzo in seguito al vesting del 25% di un grant RSU 2022 di 5.961 unit脿.
Dopo le ritenute, Higgins possiede direttamente 23.182,006 azioni KLAC, incluse 13.213,912 RSU non ancora vestite. Poich茅 il codice 鈥淔鈥� indica la trattenuta di azioni per tasse, la segnalazione 猫 di routine e non suggerisce cambiamenti nella direzione del sentiment interno o nella prospettiva aziendale.
El Formulario 4 muestra que Bren D. Higgins, EVP y CFO de KLA Corp. (KLAC), ha liquidado las retenciones fiscales generadas por la consolidaci贸n programada de RSU, no por una operaci贸n en el mercado abierto. Se reportaron dos transacciones con c贸digo 鈥淔鈥�:
- 03/08/25: 722,381 acciones retenidas a $886.64 tras el 25% de consolidaci贸n de una concesi贸n RSU 2023 de 5,828 unidades.
- 04/08/25: 738,743 acciones retenidas al mismo precio tras el 25% de consolidaci贸n de una concesi贸n RSU 2022 de 5,961 unidades.
Despu茅s de las retenciones, Higgins posee directamente 23,182.006 acciones de KLAC, incluyendo 13,213.912 RSU no consolidadas. Como el c贸digo 鈥淔鈥� indica retenci贸n de acciones para impuestos, la presentaci贸n es rutinaria y no se帽ala cambios en el sentimiento interno ni en la perspectiva corporativa.

Le formulaire 4 montre que Bren D. Higgins, EVP et CFO de KLA Corp. (KLAC), a r茅gl茅 les retenues fiscales d茅clench茅es par l'acquisition programm茅e des RSU, et non par une transaction sur le march茅 ouvert. Deux transactions avec le code 芦 F 禄 ont 茅t茅 rapport茅es :

Formular 4 zeigt, dass Bren D. Higgins, EVP & CFO von KLA Corp. (KLAC), Steuerabz眉ge abgegolten hat, die durch planm盲脽iges RSU-Vesting ausgel枚st wurden, nicht durch einen Handel am offenen Markt. Zwei Transaktionen mit Code 鈥濬鈥� wurden gemeldet:

- 04.08.25: 738,743 Aktien zum gleichen Preis einbehalten nach 25 % Vesting einer 5.961 Einheiten umfassenden RSU-Zuteilung 2022.
Nach den Einbehalten besitzt Higgins direkt 23.182,006 KLAC-Aktien, darunter 13.213,912 unverfallene RSUs.

Insights
TL;DR: Routine tax-withholding; no bullish or bearish signal.
These Code 鈥淔鈥� dispositions reflect automatic share surrender to cover taxes on vested RSUs. Higgins retains a sizable holding (鈮� 23 k shares), so equity exposure remains intact. No open-market selling or buying occurred, limiting market relevance. Neutral for valuation or sentiment models.
TL;DR: Standard Section 16 compliance; administrative.
The filing complies with Section 16(a) and Rule 10b5-1(c) disclosure standards. Transactions are plan-based, avoiding potential optics of opportunistic trading. No governance red flags emerge.

Special Note About Forward-Looking Statements
This report contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements reflect our current expectations as to future events based on certain assumptions and include any statement that does not directly relate to any historical or current fact. These statements include, but are not limited to, statements related to our expectations regarding the performance of our business, our financial results, our operations, our liquidity and capital resources, the conditions in our industry and our growth strategy. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as "outlook," "aim," "anticipate," "have confidence," "estimate," "expect," "will be," "will continue," "will likely result," "project," "intend," "plan," "believe," "see," "look to" and other words and terms of similar meaning or the negative versions of such words. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may change at any time and actual results or outcomes may differ materially from those that we expected.
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 the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, global supply chain disruptions, inflation, volatility and disruption of global financial markets; the impact of United States and other countries’ trade policies including the implementation of tariffs; 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 completed spin-off of Aramark Uniform and Career Apparel ("Uniform") 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 19, 2024 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.

ARAMARK AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Aramark (the "Company") is a leading global provider of food and facilities services to education, healthcare, business & industry and sports, leisure & corrections clients. The Company's largest market is the United States, which is supplemented by an additional 15 -country footprint. The Company also provides services on a more limited basis in several additional countries and in offshore locations. The Company operates its business in two reportable segments that share many of the same operating characteristics: Food and Support Services United States ("FSS United States") and Food and Support Services International ("FSS International").
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements, and the notes to those statements, included in the Company's Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 19, 2024. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 27, 2024 was derived from audited financial statements which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In the opinion of the Company, the statements include all adjustments, which are of a normal, recurring nature, required for a fair presentation for the periods presented. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for a full year, due to the seasonality of some of the Company's business activities and the possibility of changes in general economic conditions.
New Accounting Standards Updates
Standards Not Yet Adopted (from most to least recent date of issuance)
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The guidance requires disclosure of additional information related to certain costs and expenses, including amounts of inventory purchases, employee compensation and depreciation and amortization included in each income statement line item. The guidance also requires disclosure of the total amount of selling expenses and the Company’s definition of selling expenses. The guidance is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning in fiscal 2028 and for interim periods beginning in fiscal 2029. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the new guidance on its financial statement disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The guidance will require improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. The guidance is effective for the Company's annual disclosures for fiscal 2026 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the new guidance on its financial statement disclosures.
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures to enhance the reportable segment disclosures. The guidance will require additional disclosures about significant segment expenses. The guidance is effective for the Company's annual disclosures for fiscal 2025 and for interim periods beginning in fiscal 2026; early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt the new reportable segment disclosure guidance for the Company's fiscal 2025 annual disclosures and will apply the new guidance retrospectively to all prior periods.

Currency Translation
Gains and losses resulting from the translation of financial statements of non-United States subsidiaries are reflected as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss in stockholders' equity. Beginning in fiscal 2018, Argentina was determined to have a highly inflationary economy. As a result, the Company remeasures the financial statements of Argentina's operations in accordance with the accounting guidance for highly inflationary economies. The impact of the Argentina remeasurement, reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income, was a foreign currency transaction loss of $1.7 million and $3.0 million during the three and nine month periods ended June 27, 2025, respectively, and $0.4 million and $5.2 million during the three and nine month periods ended June 28, 2024, respectively. The impact of foreign currency transaction gains and losses exclusive of Argentina's operations included in the Company's operating results during the three and nine month periods of both fiscal 2025 and 2024 were immaterial to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Current Assets
The Company insures portions of its risk related to general liability, automobile liability, workers’ compensation liability claims as well as certain property damage risks through a wholly owned captive insurance subsidiary (the "Captive") as part of its

ARAMARK AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
Within the FSS International segment, the Company receives certain cash on behalf of the Company's clients, which is contractually restricted from withdrawal and usage. This restricted cash is recorded in "Prepayments and other current assets" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Other Assets
Other assets consist primarily of costs to obtain or fulfill contracts (including employee sales commissions), long-term receivables, interest rate swaps, investments in 50% or less owned entities and computer software costs.
For investments in 50% or less owned entities accounted for under the equity method of accounting, the carrying amount as of June 27, 2025 and September 27, 2024 was $112.6 million and $84.0 million, respectively.
For investments in 50% or less owned entities, other than those accounted for under the equity method of accounting, the Company measures these investments at cost, less any impairment and adjusted for changes in fair value resulting from observable price changes for an identical or a similar investment of the same issuer due to the lack of readily available fair values related to those investments. The carrying amount of equity investments without readily determinable fair values as of June 27, 2025 and September 27, 2024 was $46.9 million and $35.4 million, respectively.
Supply Chain Finance Program
Lease Arrangements
Certain of the Company's lease arrangements, primarily vehicle leases, with terms of to eight years , contain provisions related to residual value guarantees. The maximum potential liability to the Company under such arrangements was approximately $33.1 million at June 27, 2025 if the terminal fair value of vehicles coming off lease was zero . Consistent with past experience, management does not expect any significant payments will be required pursuant to these arrangements. No amounts have been accrued for the guarantee arrangements at June 27, 2025.
Other Current and Noncurrent Liabilities
The Company is self-insured for certain obligations related to its employee health care benefit programs as well as for certain risks retained under its general liability, automobile liability, workers' compensation liability and certain property damage programs. Reserves for these programs are estimated through actuarial methods, with the assistance of third-party actuaries using loss development assumptions based on the Company's claims history.

Separation and Distribution of Aramark Uniform and Career Apparel
On September 30, 2023, the Company completed the separation and distribution of its Uniform segment into an independent publicly traded company, Vestis. The separation was structured as a tax free spin-off, which occurred by way of a pro rata distribution to Aramark stockholders. Each of the Aramark stockholders received one share of Vestis common stock for every two shares of Aramark common stock held of record as of the close of business on September 20, 2023. Vestis is now an independent public company under the symbol “VSTS” on the New York Stock Exchange.
In connection with the separation and distribution, the Company entered into or adopted several agreements that provide a framework for the relationship between the Company and Vestis, including, but not limited to the following:
Separation and Distribution Agreement - governs the rights and obligations of the parties regarding the distribution following the completion of the separation, including the transfer of assets and assumption of liabilities, and establishes certain rights and obligations between the Company and Vestis following the distribution, including procedures with respect to claims subject to indemnification and related matters.
Transition Services Agreement - governs services between the Company and Vestis and their respective affiliates to provide each other on an interim, transitional basis, various services, including, but not limited to, administrative, information technology and cybersecurity support services and certain finance, treasury, tax and governmental function services. The services will terminate no later than 24 months following the distribution date.
Tax Matters Agreement - governs the parties’ respective rights, responsibilities and obligations with respect to tax liabilities and benefits, tax attributes, the preparation and filing of tax returns, the control of audits and other tax proceedings and other matters regarding taxes.
Employee Matters Agreement - governs the allocation of liabilities and responsibilities relating to employment matters, employee compensation and benefits plans and programs and other related matters.
Under these agreements, the Company will continue to provide certain services to Vestis following the separation and distribution. The agreements do not provide the Company with the ability to influence the operating or financial policies of Vestis subsequent to the separation date. During the three and nine months ended June 27, 2025, the value of the services provided to Vestis were immaterial no 2.3 million and $10.4 million, respectively.
During the nine months ended June 28, 2024, the Company incurred $20.0 million of transaction fees related to the separation and distribution of its Uniform segment and $8.8 million of charitable contribution expense for the contribution of Vestis shares to a donor advised fund in order to fund charitable contributions, which were recorded within "Selling and general corporate expenses" on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
The Company recorded its distribution of Vestis' net assets as a change in "Retained Earnings." The amount recorded reflected the carrying amounts, as of September 29, 2023, of the net assets distributed offset by the holdback of Vestis shares upon distribution of $8.8 million, net cash received from Vestis post-separation of $6.1 million and other adjustments of $0.6 million. The Company also recorded a net decrease to "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" of $31.4 million to derecognize foreign currency translation adjustments and pension plan adjustments which were attributable to Vestis.
NOTE 2. GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS:
Goodwill represents the excess of the fair value of consideration paid for an acquired entity over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized and is subject to an impairment test that the Company conducts annually or more frequently if a change in circumstances or the occurrence of events indicates that potential impairment exists, using discounted cash flows.
Changes in total goodwill during the nine months ended June 27, 2025 are as follows (in thousands):

As of June 27, 2025, there were $1,058.7 million of outstanding foreign currency borrowings.
As of June 27, 2025, there was $906.5 million of availability under the senior secured revolving credit facility and $30.0 million of availability under the Receivables Facility.
On April 1, 2025, Aramark International Finance S.à.r.l. ("AIFS"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, fully repaid the €325.0 million outstanding aggregate principal amount of AIFS’ euro denominated 3.125 % 2025 Senior Notes due April 2025 (the "3.125 % 2025 Notes") at maturity, using a portion of the net proceeds from the issuance and sale of the euro denominated 4.375 % Senior Notes due April 2033 (the "4.375 % 2033 Notes").
On March 19, 2025, AIFS issued €400.0 million of 4.375 % 2033 Notes, and used a portion of the net proceeds from the issuance and sale of the 4.375 % 2033 Notes to repay the 3.125 % 2025 Notes and the remainder for general corporate purposes, including reduction of debt. The Company capitalized €4.4 million in third-party costs directly attributable to the issuance and sale of the 4.375 % 2033 Notes. The capitalized costs are amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the 4.375 % 2033 Notes and are presented in “Long-Term Borrowings” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 27, 2025 as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the notes.
The 4.375 % 2033 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture (the "2033 Notes Indenture"), entered into by and among AIFS, the Company, Aramark Services, Inc. ("ASI") and certain other Aramark entities, as guarantors, U.S. Bank Trust Company,

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
National Association, as trustee, and U.S. Bank Europe DAC, as paying agent, transfer agent and registrar. The 4.375 % 2033 Notes were issued at par.
The 4.375 % 2033 Notes are senior unsecured obligations of AIFS. The 4.375 % 2033 Notes rank equal in right of payment to all of the AIFS's existing and future senior indebtedness and will rank senior in right of payment to the AIFS' future subordinated indebtedness, if any. The 4.375 % 2033 Notes are guaranteed on a senior, unsecured basis by the Company and substantially all of the domestic subsidiaries of ASI. The guarantees of the 4.375 % 2033 Notes rank equal in right of payment to all of the senior obligations of such guarantor. The guarantee of the 4.375 % 2033 Notes by guarantor is effectively subordinated to all of such guarantor's existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the assets securing that indebtedness, and structurally subordinated to all of the liabilities of any of such guarantor's subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 4.375 % 2033 Notes. The 4.375 % 2033 Notes are also guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company for purposes of financial reporting. Interest on the 4.375 % 2033 Notes is payable on April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing October 15, 2025.
Prior to April 15, 2028, AIFS may redeem all or a portion of the 4.375 % 2033 Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 4.375 % 2033 Notes redeemed plus a “make whole” premium, as described in the 2033 Notes Indenture, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including the date of redemption. AIFS has the option to redeem all or a portion of the 4.375 % 2033 Notes at any time on or after April 15, 2028 at the redemption prices set forth in the 2033 Notes Indenture plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including the date of redemption.
The 2033 Notes Indenture contains covenants limiting ASI's ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to: incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred shares; pay dividends and make certain distributions, investments and other restricted payments; create certain liens; sell assets; enter into transactions with affiliates; create or allow any restriction on the ability of restricted subsidiaries to make payments to ASI; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; merge, consolidate, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of ASI and its subsidiaries' assets on a consolidated basis; and designate ASI's subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. The Company will not be subject to the covenants that apply to ASI or its restricted subsidiaries under the 2033 Notes Indenture. The 2033 Notes Indenture also provides for events of default which, if any of them occurs, would permit or require the principal of and accrued interest on the 4.375 % 2033 Notes to become or to be declared due and payable. Further, a failure to pay any obligations under the 2033 Notes Indenture as they become due or any event causing amounts to become due prior to their stated maturity could result in a cross-default and potential acceleration of ASI’s other outstanding debt obligations, including the other senior notes and obligations under the senior secured credit facilities.
United States Term B Loans due June 2030 Incremental Amendment, United States Term B Loans due January 2027 Repayment and 5.000 % Senior Notes Due April 2025 Redemption
ASI and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a credit agreement on March 28, 2017 (as subsequently amended the "Credit Agreement"). On February 18, 2025, ASI entered into an incremental amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Incremental Amendment No. 17”) to provide for, among other things, the establishment of new term loans comprised of new United States dollar denominated Term B-8 Loans ("New U.S. Term B-8 Loans due 2030") in an amount equal to $1,395.0 million, in the form of a fungible upsize to ASI’s existing United States dollar denominated Term B-8 Loans due in June 2030 (“U.S. Term B-8 Loans due 2030”). The New U.S. Term B-8 Loans due 2030 were funded in full on the closing date of Incremental Amendment No. 17 and were applied by ASI to: (a) repay in full $839.3 million of the United States dollar denominated Term B-4 Loans due January 2027 ("U.S. Term B-4 Loans due 2027") previously outstanding under the Credit Agreement; (b) to redeem the entire $551.5 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of ASI's 5.000 % Senior Notes due April 2025 (the "5.000 % 2025 Notes") at a redemption price equal to 100 % of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption; and (c) to pay fees, premiums, expenses and other transaction costs in connection with the foregoing.
The U.S. Term B-8 Loans due 2030 bear interest rates equal to either (a) a forward-looking term rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate for the applicable interest period (“Term SOFR”) or (b) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of either (1) the prime rate of the administrative agent, (2) the federal funds rate plus 0.50 % and (3) Term SOFR for a one-month interest period plus 1.00 % plus an applicable margin set at 2.00 % for borrowings based on Term SOFR and 1.00 % for borrowings based on the base rate.
The U.S. Term B-8 Loans due 2030 require the payment of installments in the quarterly principal amount of $6.3 million from March 31, 2025 through March 31, 2030, and $2,346.4 million at maturity. The U.S. Term B-8 Loans due 2030 are subject to substantially similar terms relating to guarantees, collateral, mandatory prepayments and covenants that are applicable to ASI’s other Term B Loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
The Company capitalized $4.6 million of transaction costs directly attributable to the refinancing in Amendment No. 17, which are amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the loans and are presented in “Long-Term Borrowings” on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 27, 2025 as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the loans. Amounts paid for capitalized transaction costs are included within “Other financing activities” on the Condensed Consolidated

Additionally, the Company recorded $8.3 million of charges to "Interest Expense, net" on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the nine months ended June 27, 2025, consisting of a $2.5 million non-cash loss for the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs and discount on the U.S. Term B-4 Loans due 2027 and the 5.000 % 2025 Notes and the payment of $5.8 million of transaction costs related to the refinancing.
March 2024 Senior Secured Credit Agreement Refinancing

As a result of the Amendment No. 14, (i) U.S. Term B-5 Loans due 2028 previously outstanding under the Credit Agreement were replaced with new United States dollar denominated Term B-7 Loans (“U.S. Term B-7 Loans due 2028”) in an amount equal to $730.5 million due in April 2028 and (ii) U.S. Term B-6 Loans due 2030 previously outstanding under the Credit Agreement were replaced with the new United States dollar denominated Term B-8 Loans (“U.S. Term B-8 Loans due 2030”) in an amount equal to $1,094.5 million due in June 2030.
The Company capitalized $0.9 1.6 million of charges to "Interest Expense, net" on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the nine months ended June 28, 2024, consisting of a $1.2 million non-cash loss for the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs and discount on the U.S. Term B-5 Loans due 2028 and U.S. Term B-6 Loans due 2030 and the payment of $0.4 million of transaction costs related to the repricings.
On October 2, 2023, the Company fully redeemed the $1,500.0 million 6.375 % 2025 Senior Notes due May 2025 (the "6.375 % 2025 Notes") in conjunction with the separation and distribution of the Uniform segment (see Note 1). The Company recorded $31.8 million of charges to "Interest Expense, net" on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the nine months ended June 28, 2024, consisting of the payment of a $23.9 million call premium and a $7.9 million non-cash loss for the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs on the 6.375 % 2025 Notes. The amount paid for the call premium is included within "Other financing activities" on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended June 28, 2024.
NOTE 4. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS:
The Company enters into contractual derivative arrangements to manage changes in market conditions related to interest on debt obligations, including interest rate swap agreements, which are recognized as either assets or liabilities on the balance sheet at fair value at the end of each quarter. The counterparties to the Company's contractual derivative agreements are all major international financial institutions. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by these counterparties. The Company continually monitors its positions and the credit ratings of its counterparties and does not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. The Company formally documents the hedging relationship and its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge, the hedging instrument, the hedged item, the nature of the risk being hedged and how the hedging instrument's effectiveness in offsetting the hedged risk will be assessed prospectively and retrospectively for designated hedges. The Company also formally assesses, both at the hedge's inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting cash flows of hedged items.
Cash Flow Hedges
The Company has $2.4 billion notional amount of outstanding interest rate swap agreements as of June 27, 2025, which fix the rate on a like amount of variable rate borrowings with varying maturities through May 2028. During the nine months ended June 27, 2025, interest rate swaps with notional amounts of $800.0 million matured. The Company entered into $900.0 million notional amount of interest rate swap agreements during the nine months ended June 27, 2025 to hedge the cash flow risk of variability in interest payments on variable rate borrowings.
Changes in the fair value of a derivative that is designated as and meets all the required criteria for a cash flow hedge are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and reclassified into earnings as the underlying hedged item affects earnings. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt. Cash flows from hedging transactions are classified in the same category as the cash flows from the respective hedged item. As of June 27, 2025 and September 27, 2024, $19.7 million

NOTE 5. REVENUE RECOGNITION:
The Company generates revenue through sales of food and facility services to customers based on written contracts at the locations it serves. The Company provides food and beverage services, including catering and retail services, and facilities services, including plant operations and maintenance, custodial, housekeeping, landscaping and other services. In accordance with the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, the Company accounts for a customer contract when both parties have approved the arrangement and are committed to perform their respective obligations, each party's rights can be identified, payment terms can be identified, the contract has commercial substance and it is probable the Company will collect substantially all of the consideration to which it is entitled. Revenue is recognized upon the transfer of control of the promised product or service to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods and services.

Performance Obligations
The Company recognizes revenue when its performance obligation is satisfied. Each contract generally has one performance obligation, which is satisfied over time. The Company primarily accounts for its performance obligations under the series guidance, using the as-invoiced practical expedient when applicable. The Company applies the right to invoice practical expedient to record revenue as the services are provided, given the nature of the services provided and the frequency of billing under the customer contracts. Under this practical expedient, the Company recognizes revenue in an amount that corresponds directly with the value to the customer of the Company’s performance completed to date and for which the Company has the right to invoice the customer. Certain arrangements include performance obligations which include variable consideration (primarily per transaction fees). For these arrangements, the Company does not need to estimate the variable consideration for the contract and allocate to the entire performance obligation; therefore, the variable fees are recognized in the period they are earned.
Disaggregation of Revenue

Contract Balances
Deferred income is recognized in "Accrued expenses and other current liabilities" and "Other Noncurrent Liabilities" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets when the Company has received consideration, or has the right to receive consideration, in advance of the transfer of the performance obligation of the contract to the customer, primarily prepaid meal plans. The consideration received remains a liability until the goods or services have been provided to the customer. The Company classifies deferred income as current if the deferred income is expected to be recognized in the next 12 months or as noncurrent if the deferred income is expected to be recognized in excess of the next 12 months. If the Company cannot render its performance obligation according to contract terms after receiving the consideration in advance, amounts may be contractually required to be refunded to the customer.
During the nine months ended June 27, 2025, deferred income increased related to customer prepayments and decreased related to income recognized during the period as a result of satisfying the performance obligation or return of funds related to non-performance. For the nine months ended June 27, 2025, the Company recognized $311.5 million of revenue that was included in deferred income at the beginning of the period. Deferred income balances are summarized in the following table (in millions):

NOTE 6. INCOME TAXES:
During the three and nine months ended June 27, 2025, the company recorded a benefit to the “Provision for Income Taxes” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income of $3.1
During the nine months ended June 28, 2024, the Company recorded a valuation allowance adjustment to the "Provision for Income Taxes" on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income of $7.1 million against certain foreign tax credits, as it is more likely than not a tax benefit will not be realized due to the reduction of future forecasted foreign income as a result of the separation and distribution of the Uniform segment.
In 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation & Development (“OECD”) released the Pillar Two Global Anti-Base Erosion Model Rules (“Pillar Two”). Under Pillar Two, multinational companies with consolidated revenue greater than €750 million will be subject to a minimum effective tax rate of 15.0% within each respective country. Guided by the OECD framework, more than 140 countries have agreed to enact Pillar Two legislation. The Company currently operates in several countries which will be subject to Pillar Two. The OECD has since issued administrative guidance providing transition and safe harbor rules around the implementation of Pillar Two rules which apply to the Company for fiscal years 2025 through 2027. The Company currently expects to meet the safe harbor requirements in each country subject to Pillar Two in which it operates but will continue to monitor and reflect the impact of legislative changes in future periods, as appropriate. The Pillar Two legislation has no material impact on the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the Company does not expect the impact will be material in future periods.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill (“OBBB”) Act was signed into law. The OBBB Act contains a broad range of tax reform measures, including provisions that extend or modify certain elements of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The new law has a range of effective dates, with certain changes taking effect in fiscal year 2025 and others that become effective in future periods. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the provisions on its consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 7. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY:
On July 22, 2025, a $0.105 dividend per share of common stock was declared, payable on August 20, 2025, to stockholders of record on the close of business on August 6, 2025.
On November 5, 2024, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which the Company is authorized to repurchase up to $500.0 million of Aramark's outstanding common stock. Under the share repurchase program, repurchases can be made from time to time using a variety of methods, including open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchases and Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. The size and timing of any repurchases will depend on a number of factors, including share price, general business and market conditions and other factors. Shares repurchased by the Company are accounted for under the treasury cost method. The value of the repurchased shares includes the 1% excise tax accrual as a result of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. The Company made an accounting policy election to record the value of the repurchased shares, including the 1% excise tax accrual, to treasury stock. The share repurchase program does not have a fixed expiration date and may be terminated at any time. During the nine months ended June 27, 2025, the Company repurchased 4.0 million shares of its common stock for $140.2 million.

NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
From time to time, the Company and its subsidiaries are a party to various legal actions, proceedings and investigations involving claims incidental to the conduct of their business, including actions by clients, customers, employees, government entities and third parties, including under federal, state, international, national, provincial and local employment laws, wage and hour laws, discrimination laws, immigration laws, human health and safety laws, import and export controls and customs laws, environmental laws, environmental, social and governance related non-financial disclosure laws, false claims or whistleblower statutes, minority, women and disadvantaged business enterprise statutes, tax codes, antitrust and competition laws, consumer protection statutes, procurement regulations, intellectual property laws, food safety and sanitation laws, cost and accounting principles, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act, other anti-corruption laws, lobbying laws, motor carrier safety laws, data privacy and security laws and alcohol licensing and service laws, or alleging negligence and/or breaches of contractual and other obligations. Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, available insurance coverage, established reserves and other resources, the Company does not believe that any such actions are likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to its business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
On May 17, 2024, a purported shareholder of Vestis, the Company's former Uniform segment that was spun-off from Aramark in September 2023, commenced a putative class action lawsuit against Vestis and certain of its officers in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia on behalf of purchasers of Vestis’ common stock between October 2, 2023 and May 1, 2024. The complaint alleges claims under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, based on allegedly false or misleading statements generally related to Vestis’ business and operations, pricing practices, and financial results and outlook. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages and other relief. On November 22, 2024, the complaint was amended to add the Company and its Chief Executive Officer as additional defendants. The Company intends to vigorously defend this matter.

NOTE 11. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND FINANCIAL LIABILITIES:
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities recorded at fair value are classified based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. The hierarchical levels related to the subjectivity of the valuation inputs are defined as follows:
• Level 1—inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets
• Level 2—inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument
• Level 3—inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of Aramark's (the "Company," "we," "our" and "us") financial condition and results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 27, 2025 and June 28, 2024 should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and the notes to those statements for the fiscal year ended September 27, 2024 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on November 19, 2024.
Our discussion contains forward-looking statements, such as our plans, objectives, opinions, expectations, anticipations, intentions and beliefs, that are based upon our current expectations but that involve risks and uncertainties. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in those forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those described under the heading "Special Note About Forward-Looking Statements" and elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In the following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, certain financial measures may be considered "non-GAAP financial measures" under SEC rules. These rules require supplemental explanation and reconciliation, which is provided elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Overview
We are a leading global provider of food and facilities services to education, healthcare, business & industry and sports, leisure & corrections clients. Our largest market is the United States, which is supplemented by an additional 15-country footprint. We also provide our services on a more limited basis in several additional countries and in offshore locations. Through our established brand, broad geographic presence and employees, we anchor our business in our partnerships with thousands of clients. Through these partnerships, we serve millions of consumers including students, patients, employees, sports fans and guests worldwide. We operate our business in two reportable segments: Food and Support Services United States ("FSS United States") and Food and Support Services International ("FSS International").
Our FSS United States reportable segment operations focus on serving clients in five principal sectors: Business & Industry, Education, Healthcare, Sports, Leisure & Corrections and Facilities & Other. Our FSS International reportable segment provides a similar range of services as those provided to our FSS United States clients and operates in the same sectors. Administrative expenses not allocated to our reportable segments are presented separately as corporate expenses.
Current Business Environment
Recent developments regarding tariffs and global trade have resulted in increased volatility and uncertainty for macroeconomic conditions. Since the beginning of the fiscal year, we have seen a moderation in global inflationary costs in product, energy and labor as well as in market interest rates, while we have continued to experience volatility in foreign currencies. Given the uncertainty of tariff policy and the resulting impact on current and future macroeconomic conditions, we may see continued volatility in foreign currencies as well as fluctuating trends in global inflationary costs and market interest rates in the near term. We regularly evaluate and believe we take appropriate actions when necessary to mitigate the risk in these areas. These actions include management of operating costs, including supply chain initiatives and pricing actions, and managing interest rate risk through the use of interest rate swaps and other risk mitigation strategies.
Seasonality
Our revenue and operating results have varied, and we expect them to continue to vary, from quarter to quarter as a result of different factors. Historically, within our FSS United States segment, there has been a lower level of activity during the first half of our fiscal year in operations that provide services to sports and leisure clients. This lower level of activity, historically, has been partially offset during the first half of our fiscal year by the increased activity levels in our educational operations. Conversely, historically there has been a significant increase in the provision of services to sports and leisure clients during the second half of our fiscal year, which is partially offset by the effect of summer recess at colleges, universities and schools in our educational operations. For cash flows, historically there has been cash usage during our first fiscal quarter due to lower activity within our sports and leisure clients as well as payments related to employee incentives. Conversely, historically there have been cash inflows during our fourth fiscal quarter due to an inflow of customer prepayments particularly within our Higher Education business in anticipation of the fall semester and higher activity within our sports and leisure clients.

Foreign Currency Fluctuations
The impact from foreign currency translation assumes constant foreign currency exchange rates based on the rates in effect for the prior year period being used in translation for the comparable current year period. We believe that providing the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency rates on certain financial results can facilitate analysis of period-to-period comparisons of business performance.
Fiscal Year
Our fiscal year is the fifty-two or fifty-three week period which ends on the Friday nearest September 30th. The fiscal year ending October 3, 2025 is a fifty-three week period and the fiscal year ended September 27, 2024 is a fifty-two week period.

(1) As a percentage of total revenue, FSS United States represented 71.4% and 72.4% and FSS International represented 28.6% and 27.6% for the nine months ended June 27, 2025 and June 28, 2024, respectively.
Consolidated Overview
Revenue increased by approximately 5.7% and 3.7% during the three and nine month periods of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year periods, respectively. The increase was primarily attributable to base business growth and additional operating days due to a calendar shift at several universities in the FSS United States segment, partially offset by the exit of some lower margin accounts occurring later in fiscal 2024. The increase in the three month period of fiscal 2025 was also attributable to net new business and a favorable impact of foreign currency translation (0.5%). The increase for the nine month period of fiscal 2025 was partially offset by the negative impact of foreign currency translation (0.7%).

Operating income increased by $20.9 million and $86.3 million during the three and nine month periods of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year periods, respectively, driven by base business growth and supply chain efficiencies, partially offset by higher medical claims ($13.0 million and $12.5 million, respectively). The increase in operating income during the three month period of fiscal 2025 was partially offset by severance charges ($12.7 million). In addition, the increase in operating income during the nine month period of fiscal 2025 was attributable to prior year expenses related to the separation and distribution of the Uniform segment ($29.0 million), which was partially offset by higher amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets ($11.8 million) and higher contingent consideration expenses ($10.6 million).
Interest Expense, net, increased by 6.0% during the three month period of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year period primarily due to the entering of new interest rate swap agreements at higher interest rates to replace maturing interest rate swap agreements. The interest costs were partially offset by the net effect of the retired United States dollar denominated Term B-4 Loans due January 2027 (“U.S. Term B-4 Loans due 2027”), the redeemed 5.000% Senior Notes due April 2025 (“5.000% 2025 Notes”) and the upsizing of the United States dollar denominated Term B-8 Loans due 2030 (“U.S. Term B-8 Loans due 2030”).
Interest Expense, net, decreased by 10.8% during the nine month period of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year period due to the following: a prior year payment of a $23.9 million call premium; a prior year $7.9 million non-cash loss for the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the repayment of the 6.375% Senior Notes due May 2025 (the "6.375% 2025 Notes"); a prior year $1.6 million write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs and discount on the United States dollar denominated Term B-5 Loans due 2028 and United States dollar denominated Term B-6 Loans due 2030; and transaction costs related to the repricing of these loans and lower borrowings under the Receivables Facility and revolving credit facility. The decrease was partially offset by the payment of $5.8 million of transaction costs related to the refinancing of the U.S. Term B-8 Loans due 2030, a $2.5 million non-cash loss for the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs and discount on the U.S. Term B-4 Loans due 2027 and 5.000% 2025 Notes as well as the aforementioned increase referenced in the paragraph above.
The Provision for Income Taxes for the three and nine month periods of fiscal 2025 was recorded at an effective tax rate of 25.2% and 25.6%, respectively. The Provision for Income Taxes for the three and nine month periods of fiscal 2024 was recorded at an effective tax rate of 27.5% and 32.0%, respectively. During the three and nine month periods of fiscal 2025, we recorded an income tax benefit of $3.1 million for the reversal of a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets within a foreign subsidiary due to an acquisition of a business. During the nine month period of fiscal 2024, we recorded a $7.1 million valuation allowance adjustment against certain foreign tax credits, as it is more likely than not a tax benefit will not be realized due to the reduction of future forecasted foreign income as a result of the separation and distribution of the Uniform segment (see Note 6 to the condensed consolidated financial statements).
Segment Results
FSS United States Segment
The FSS United States reportable segment consists of five sectors which have similar economic characteristics and comprise a single operating segment. The five sectors of the FSS United States reportable segment are Business & Industry, Education, Healthcare, Sports, Leisure & Corrections and Facilities & Other.

The Healthcare, Education and Facilities & Other sectors generally have high-single digit operating income margins and the Business & Industry and Sports, Leisure & Corrections sectors generally have mid-single digit operating income margins.
FSS United States segment revenue increased by approximately 3.3% and 2.2% during the three and nine month periods of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year periods, respectively, primarily attributable to base business growth. Specifically, for both the three and nine month periods: the Business & Industry sector increase was due to volume growth in base business and net new business; the Education sector revenue was positively impacted by additional operating days due to a calendar shift at several universities; the Sports, Leisure and Corrections sector increase was driven by higher net new business within the Corrections business; and the Facilities & Other sector decrease resulted from the exit of some lower margin accounts in late fiscal 2024, partially offset by increased revenues from procurement services.
Operating income increased by $19.9 million and $46.2 million during the three and nine month periods of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year periods, respectively. The increase was primarily attributable to base business growth and supply chain efficiencies, partially offset by higher medical claims ($13.0 million and $12.5 million for the three and nine month periods, respectively). The increase during the three month period of fiscal 2025 was also attributable to a greater number of operating days due to a calendar shift in the Education sector, partially offset by severance charges ($4.4 million). The increase during the nine month period of fiscal 2025 was partially offset by higher contingent consideration expenses ($10.6 million) and higher amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets ($5.2 million).
FSS International Segment
FSS International segment revenue increased by approximately 12.0% and 7.5% during the three and nine month periods of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year periods, respectively. The increase was primarily attributable to base business growth and net new business growth. Additionally, the increase during the three month period of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year period was favorably impacted by foreign currency translation (1.7%). The increase during the nine month period of fiscal 2025 was partially offset by the negative impact of foreign currency translation (2.5%).
Operating income decreased by $3.2 million during the three month period of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year period primarily due to severance charges ($8.2 million), partially offset by base business growth and supply chain efficiencies. Operating income increased by $13.2 million during the nine month period of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year period primarily attributable to base business growth and supply chain efficiencies, partially offset by severance charges ($8.2 million) and higher amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets ($6.6 million).
Corporate
Corporate expenses, those administrative expenses not allocated to the business segments, decreased by $4.2 million and $26.9 million during the three and nine month periods of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year periods, respectively. The decrease during the three month period of fiscal 2025 was primarily attributable to lower share-based compensation expense. The decrease during the nine month period of fiscal 2025 was mainly attributable to prior year expenses related to the separation and distribution of the Uniform segment ($29.0 million), partially offset by an increase in acquisition costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
As of June 27, 2025, we had $501.5 million of cash and cash equivalents, $43.7 million of marketable securities, $906.5 million of availability under our senior secured revolving credit facility and $30.0 million of availability under our Receivables Facility. A significant portion of our cash and cash equivalents are held in mature, liquid geographies where we have operations. As of June 27, 2025, we had $1,058.7 million of outstanding foreign currency borrowings.
25
Table of Contents
On March 19, 2025, we issued €400.0 million of euro denominated 4.375% Senior Notes due April 2033 (the "4.375% 2033 Notes"). We used a portion of the net proceeds from the issuance and sale of the 4.375% 2033 Notes to repay at maturity, April 1, 2025, all of the €325.0 million outstanding aggregate principal amount of euro denominated 3.125% Senior Notes due April 2025 (the "3.125% 2025 Notes") and the remainder for general corporate purposes, including reduction of debt (see Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements).
We entered into a credit agreement on March 28, 2017 (as subsequently amended the "Credit Agreement"). On February 18, 2025, we entered into an incremental amendment to the Credit Agreement (“Incremental Amendment No. 17”) to provide for, among other things, the establishment of new term loans comprised of new United States dollar denominated Term B-8 Loans ("New U.S. Term B-8 Loans due 2030") in an amount equal to $1,395.0 million, in the form of a fungible upsize to the existing U.S. Term B-8 Loans due 2030. The New U.S. Term B-8 Loans due 2030 were funded in full on the closing date of Incremental Amendment No. 17 and were applied to: (a) repay in full $839.3 million of the U.S. Term B-4 Loans due 2027 previously outstanding under the Credit Agreement; (b) to redeem the entire $551.5 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of the 5.000% 2025 Notes; and (c) to pay fees, premiums, expenses and other transaction costs in connection with the foregoing (see Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements).
We believe that our cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and availability under our revolving credit facility and Receivables Facility will be adequate to meet anticipated cash requirements for the foreseeable future to fund working capital, capital spending, debt service obligations, refinancings, dividends and other cash needs. We also have flexibility to optimize working capital and defer certain capital expenditures as appropriate without a material impact to the business. We believe that our assumptions used to estimate our liquidity and working capital requirements are reasonable. For additional information regarding the risks associated with our liquidity and capital resources, see Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on November 19, 2024.

Reference to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows will facilitate understanding of the discussion that follows.
Cash Flows Used in Operating Activities
Cash used in operating activities decreased by $40.6 million during the nine month period of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year period. The decrease was driven by higher net income, lower payments made to clients on contracts and favorable non-cash gains and losses, partially offset by a greater use of cash from the change in operating assets and liabilities as compared to the prior year period.
The unfavorable change in operating assets and liabilities compared to the prior year period of $69.1 million was primarily due to:
•Accounts payable by $51.4 million, resulting in a higher use of cash due to the timing of disbursements;
•Prepayments by $29.6 million, resulting in a higher use of cash due to the timing of insurance and other annual contractual payments compared to the prior period; and
•Inventories by $26.3 million, resulting in a lower source of cash due to increased purchases from new business.
These changes in operating assets and liabilities more than offset:
•Receivables by $28.6 million, resulting in a lower use of cash due to the timing of collections; and
•Accrued expenses by $9.6 million, resulting in a lower use of cash primarily due to the timing of interest payments and payroll, partially offset by higher employee incentive payments and higher commission payments mainly in our Sports business.
The "Other operating activities" caption in both periods reflect adjustments to net income in the current year and prior year periods related to non-cash gains and losses and adjustments to non-operating cash transactions.
Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities
Cash flows used in investing activities were $234.8 million higher during the nine month period of fiscal 2025 compared to the prior year period primarily due to higher acquisitions of certain businesses ($156.7 million) and higher purchases of property and equipment ($58.9 million).

Table of Contents
Cash Flows Provided by (Used in) Financing Activities
During the nine month period of fiscal 2025, cash provided by financing activities was primarily impacted by the following:
•the upsizing of the U.S. Term B-8 Loans due 2030 ($1,395.0 million);
•borrowings under the Receivables Facility ($570.0 million);
•the issuance of the 4.375% 2033 Notes ($429.7 million); and
•borrowings under the revolving credit facility ($394.7 million).
These sources of cash were partially offset by repayment of the U.S. Term B-4 Loans due 2027 ($839.3 million), redemption of the 5.000% 2025 Notes ($551.5 million), repayment of the 3.125% 2025 Notes ($363.4 million), and the repurchase of common stock through the share repurchase program ($140.2 million).
During the nine month period of fiscal 2024, cash used in financing activities was primarily impacted by repayment of the 6.375% 2025 Notes ($1,500.0 million), offset by borrowings under the Receivables Facility ($599.0 million) and borrowings under the revolving credit facility ($248.0 million).
The "Other financing activities" caption also reflects a use of cash during the nine month periods of fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024 primarily related to taxes paid by us when we withhold shares upon an employee's exercise or vesting of equity awards to cover income taxes. The nine month period of fiscal 2025 includes the payment of contingent consideration obligations ($25.2 million) and transaction costs related to the issuance of the 4.375% 2033 Notes and the U.S. Term B-8 Loans due 2030 ($15.1 million). The nine month period of fiscal 2024 includes the payment of a call premium on the 6.375% 2025 Notes ($23.9 million) and contingent consideration obligations ($12.8 million).
Covenant Compliance
The Credit Agreement contains a number of covenants that, among other things, restrict, subject to certain exceptions, our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to: incur additional indebtedness; issue preferred stock or provide guarantees; create liens on assets; engage in mergers or consolidations; sell assets; pay dividends; make distributions or repurchase our capital stock; make investments, loans or advances; repay or repurchase any subordinated debt, except as scheduled or at maturity; create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts to us from our restricted subsidiaries; make certain acquisitions; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; amend material agreements governing our subordinated debt (or any indebtedness that refinances our subordinated debt); and fundamentally change our business. The indentures governing our senior notes contain similar provisions. As of June 27, 2025, we were in compliance with these covenants.
As stated above, the Credit Agreement and the indentures governing our senior notes contain provisions that restrict our ability to pay dividends and repurchase stock (collectively, “Restricted Payments”). In addition to customary exceptions, the Credit Agreement and indentures permit Restricted Payments in the aggregate up to an amount that increases quarterly by 50% of our Consolidated Net Income, as such term is defined in these debt agreements, subject to being in compliance with the interest coverage ratio described below.
Under the Credit Agreement, we are required to satisfy and maintain specified financial ratios and other financial condition tests and covenants. The indentures governing our senior notes also require us to comply with certain financial ratios in order to take certain actions. Our continued ability to meet those financial ratios, tests and covenants can be affected by events beyond our control, and there can be no assurance that we will meet those ratios, tests and covenants.
These financial ratios, tests and covenants involve the calculation of certain measures that we refer to in this discussion as "Covenant Adjusted EBITDA." Covenant Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). Covenant Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income of Aramark Services, Inc. ("ASI") and its restricted subsidiaries plus interest expense, net, provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization, further adjusted to give effect to adjustments required in calculating covenant ratios and compliance under our Credit Agreement and the indentures governing our senior notes.
Our presentation of these measures 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 U.S. GAAP. You should not consider these measures as alternatives to net income or operating income determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Covenant Adjusted EBITDA, as presented by us, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies because not all companies use identical calculations.

Table of Contents
The following is a reconciliation of net income attributable to ASI stockholders, which is a U.S. GAAP measure of ASI's operating results, to Covenant Adjusted EBITDA as defined in our debt agreements. The terms and related calculations are defined in the Credit Agreement and the indentures governing our senior notes. Covenant Adjusted EBITDA is a measure of ASI and its restricted subsidiaries only and does not include the results of Aramark.

(2) Represents the fiscal 2024 gain from the sale of our remaining equity investment in the San Antonio Spurs NBA franchise ($25.1 million).
(3) Represents the annualizing of net EBITDA from certain acquisitions made during the period.
(4) "Other" includes adjustments to remove the impact attributable to the adoption of certain accounting standards that are made to the calculation in accordance with the Credit Agreement and indentures ($53.7 million), severance charges ($19.4 million), non-cash adjustments to inventory based on expected usage ($18.2 million), charges related to a ruling on a foreign tax matter ($6.8 million), dividends from miscellaneous investments, net of earnings ($5.0 million), the impact of hyperinflation in Argentina ($3.3 million), contingent consideration expense related to acquisition earn outs, net of reversals ($2.4 million), legal charges related to an anti-trust review ($1.1 million) and other miscellaneous expenses.
Our covenant requirements and actual ratios for the twelve months ended June 27, 2025 are as follows:
| Covenant Requirement | Actual Ratio | ||||||||||
Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio(1) | ≤ 5.125x | 2.96x | |||||||||
Interest Coverage Ratio (Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio)(2) | ≥ 2.000x | 3.98x | |||||||||
(1) The Credit Agreement requires ASI to maintain a maximum Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio, defined as consolidated total indebtedness secured by a lien to Covenant Adjusted EBITDA, not to exceed 5.125x. Consolidated total indebtedness secured by a lien is defined in the Credit Agreement as total indebtedness consisting of debt for borrowed money, finance leases, debt in respect of sales-leaseback transactions, disqualified and preferred stock and advances under the Receivables Facility secured by a lien reduced by the amount of cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated balance sheet that is free and clear of any lien. Non-compliance with the maximum Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio could result in the requirement to immediately repay all amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement, which, if ASI's lenders under our Credit Agreement (other than the lenders in respect of ASI's United States Term B Loans, which lenders do not benefit from the maximum Consolidated Debt Ratio covenant) failed to waive any such default, would also constitute a default under the indentures governing our senior notes.
28
Table of Contents
(2) Our Credit Agreement establishes an incurrence-based minimum Interest Coverage Ratio, defined as Covenant Adjusted EBITDA to consolidated interest expense, the achievement of which is a condition for us to incur certain additional indebtedness and to make certain restricted payments. If we do not maintain this minimum Interest Coverage Ratio calculated on a pro forma basis for any such additional indebtedness or restricted payments, we could be prohibited from being able to (1) incur additional indebtedness, other than the incremental capacity provided for under our Credit Agreement and pursuant to certain specified exceptions, and (2) make certain restricted payments, other than pursuant to certain specified exceptions. However, any failure to maintain the minimum Interest Coverage Ratio would not result in a default or an event of default under either the Credit Agreement or the indentures governing the senior notes. The minimum Interest Coverage Ratio is at least 2.000x for the term of the Credit Agreement. Consolidated interest expense is defined in the Credit Agreement as consolidated interest expense excluding interest income, adjusted for acquisitions and dispositions and for certain non-cash or nonrecurring interest expense. The indentures governing our senior notes include a similar requirement which is referred to as a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio.
We and our subsidiaries and affiliates may from time to time, in our sole discretion, purchase, repay, redeem or retire any of our outstanding debt securities (including any publicly issued debt securities), in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise, or extend or refinance any of our outstanding indebtedness.
Supplemental Consolidating Information
Pursuant to Regulation S-X Rule 13-01, which simplifies certain disclosure requirements for guarantors and issuers of guaranteed securities, we are not required to provide condensed consolidating financial statements for Aramark and its subsidiaries, including the guarantors and non-guarantors under our Credit Agreement and the indentures governing our senior notes. ASI, the borrower under our Credit Agreement and the indentures governing our senior notes, and its restricted subsidiaries together comprise substantially all of our assets, liabilities and operations, and there are no material differences between the consolidating information related to Aramark and Aramark Intermediate Holdco Corporation, the direct parent of ASI and a guarantor under our Credit Agreement, on the one hand, and ASI and its restricted subsidiaries on a standalone basis, on the other hand.
Other
Our business activities do not include the use of unconsolidated special purpose entities and there are no significant business transactions that have not been reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. We insure portions of our risk related to general liability, automobile liability, workers’ compensation liability claims as well as certain property damage risks through a wholly owned captive insurance subsidiary (the "Captive") as part of our approach to risk finance. The Captive is subject to the regulations within its domicile of Bermuda, including regulations established by the Bermuda Monetary Authority (the "BMA") relating to levels of liquidity and solvency as such concepts are defined by the BMA. The Captive was in compliance with these regulations as of June 27, 2025. These regulations may have the effect of limiting our ability to access certain cash and cash equivalents held by the Captive for uses other than for the payment of our general liability, automobile liability, workers’ compensation liability, certain property damage and related Captive costs. As of June 27, 2025 and September 27, 2024, cash and cash equivalents at the Captive were $97.7 million and $94.7 million, respectively. The Captive also invests in United States Treasury securities where the amount as of June 27, 2025 and September 27, 2024 was $43.7 million and $42.3 million, respectively, and is recorded in "Prepayments and other current assets" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Our significant accounting policies are described in the notes to the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on November 19, 2024. For a more complete discussion of our accounting policies and critical accounting estimates that we have identified in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements, please refer to our Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on November 19, 2024.
In preparing our financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that, among other things, affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. These estimates and assumptions are most significant where they involve levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or matters susceptible to change, and where they can have a material impact on our financial condition and operating performance. If actual results were to differ materially from the estimates made, the reported results could be materially affected.
Critical accounting estimates and the related assumptions are evaluated periodically as conditions warrant, and changes to such estimates are recorded as new information or changed conditions require.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk
We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and manage this exposure through the use of variable-rate and fixed-rate debt and by utilizing interest rate swaps. We do not enter into contracts for trading purposes and do not use leveraged instruments. The market risk associated with debt obligations as of June 27, 2025 has not materially changed from September 27, 2024 (see Part II, Item 7A "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 27, 2024 filed with the SEC on November 19, 2024). However, we completed several debt related transactions during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 that may impact our related exposure to this market risk. First, we repaid in full $839.3 million of the U.S. Term B-4 Loans due 2027 and redeemed the entire $551.5 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of the 5.000% 2025 Notes. In connection with the repayment and redemption, we completed a syndication process for New U.S. Term B-8 Loans due 2030 in an aggregate principal amount of $1,395.0 million. In addition, we issued €400.0 million of the 4.375% 2033 Notes, using a portion of the net proceeds to repay all of the 3.125% 2025 Notes on April 1, 2025 and the remainder for general corporate purposes, including reduction of debt. Lastly, during the nine months ended June 27, 2025, interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $800.0 million matured and interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $900.0 million were entered into. See Note 3 to the condensed consolidated financial statements related to the changes in our debt levels. See Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of our derivative instruments and Note 11 for the disclosure of the fair value and related carrying value of our debt obligations as of June 27, 2025.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report, are functioning effectively to provide reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. A controls system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the controls system are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected. No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during our third quarter of fiscal 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we and our subsidiaries are party to various legal actions, proceedings and investigations involving claims incidental to the conduct of our business, including those brought by clients, customers, employees, government entities and third parties under, among others, federal, state, international, national, provincial and local employment laws, wage and hour laws, discrimination laws, immigration laws, human health and safety laws, import and export controls and customs laws, environmental laws, environmental, social and governance related non-financial disclosure laws, false claims or whistleblower statutes, minority, women and disadvantaged business enterprise statutes, tax codes, antitrust and competition laws, consumer protection statutes, procurement regulations, intellectual property laws, food safety and sanitation laws, cost and accounting principles, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act, other anti-corruption laws, lobbying laws, motor carrier safety laws, data privacy and security laws and alcohol licensing and service laws, or alleging negligence and/or breaches of contractual and other obligations. Based on information currently available, advice of counsel, available insurance coverage, established reserves and other resources, we do not believe that any such actions, proceedings or investigations are likely to be, individually or in the aggregate, material to our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. However, in the event of unexpected further developments, it is possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters, or other similar matters, if unfavorable, may be materially adverse to our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Our business is subject to various federal, state, and local laws and regulations governing, among other things, the generation, handling, storage, transportation, treatment and disposal of water wastes and other substances. We engage in informal settlement discussions with federal, state, local and foreign authorities regarding allegations of violations of environmental laws in connection with our operations or businesses conducted by our predecessors or companies that we have acquired, the aggregate amount of which and related remediation costs we do not believe should have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations as of June 27, 2025.
