US Foods delivered a record Adjusted EBITDA of $604 million in Q2 FY2026, up 10.2% year-over-year, with Adjusted EBITDA margin expanding 29 basis points to 5.7% — execution squarely in line with the long-range plan.

Net sales of $10.5 billion grew 4.5%, supported by 2.3% food cost inflation, and the company reaffirmed full-year guidance of 9-13% Adjusted EBITDA growth and 18-24% Adjusted Diluted EPS growth.
