Business Description
Business Description—The Company, through USF, operates in one business segment in which it markets, sells and distributes fresh, frozen and dry food and non-food products to foodservice customers throughout the United States (“U.S.”). These customers include independently owned single and multi-unit restaurants, regional concepts, national restaurant chains, hospitals, nursing homes, hotels and motels, country clubs, government and military organizations, colleges and universities and retail locations.
Basis of Presentation
Basis of Presentation—The Company operates on a 52- or 53-week fiscal year, with all periods ending on a Saturday. When a 53-week fiscal year occurs, the Company reports the additional week in the fiscal fourth quarter. Fiscal year 2026 is scheduled to be a 53-week fiscal year and 2025 was a 52-week fiscal year.
The consolidated unaudited financial statements included in this Quarterly Report have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements and notes prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures included in this Quarterly Report are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These interim unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2025 (the “2025 Annual Report”).
Consolidation The consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be achieved for any other interim period or the full fiscal year
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements, and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (“Subtopic 326”) “Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets”. This update provides a practical expedient for all entities to simplify the estimation of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. In developing reasonable and supportable forecasts as part of estimating expected credit losses, entities may elect a practical expedient that assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. The standard updates will be applied on a prospective basis. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2025-05 at the beginning of the first quarter of fiscal year 2026 and applied them prospectively. The provisions of this new guidance do not materially affect our financial position, results of operation or cash flows.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No 2024-03 Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—“Expense Disaggregation Disclosures: Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”, which requires disclosure of disaggregated information about certain income statement expense line items within the footnotes to the financial statements. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, that this standard will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06 Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (“Subtopic 350-40”) “Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software”, which amends the accounting guidance on the timing of capitalization of internally-developed software costs by removing references to software development stages, and provides guidance on how to determine when it is probable that a project will be completed and a software will be used to perform the function intended. This guidance is effective for interim and fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The standard updates may be applied prospectively, retrospectively, or via a modified prospective transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, that this standard will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied, which occurs when a customer obtains control of the promised goods or services. The amount of revenue recognized reflects the consideration which the Company expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for these goods or services. The Company generates substantially all of its revenue from the distribution and sale of food and food-related products and recognizes revenue when title and risk of loss passes to the customer and the customer accepts the goods, which occurs at delivery. Customer sales incentives, such as volume-based rebates or discounts, are treated as a reduction of revenue at the time the revenue is recognized. Sales taxes invoiced to customers and remitted to governmental authorities are excluded from net sales. Shipping and handling costs are treated as fulfillment costs and included in distribution, selling and administrative costs.
