We do not allocate share-based compensation related to stock option grants, issuances of stock pursuant to the
Employees’ Stock Purchase Plan and restricted stock grants to non-employee directors. The decrease in unallocated
corporate expenses as a percentage of consolidated earnings before taxes in fiscal 2007 over fiscal 2006 is primarily
attributable to reduced share-based compensation expense and increased gains recorded related to the cash surrender
value of corporate-owned life insurance policies. The increase in unallocated corporate expenses as a percentage of
consolidated earnings before taxes in fiscal 2006 over fiscal 2005 is primarily attributable to increased share-based
compensation expense due to the adoption of SFAS 123(R). See further discussion of Share-Based Compensation in
Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8.
Broadline Segment
Sales for fiscal 2007 were 7.0% greater than fiscal 2006. The impact of EITF 04-13 reduced sales growth by 0.4%, or
$173,171,000 for fiscal 2007 compared to a $57,211,000 reduction for fiscal 2006. Sales are reported on a comparable
basis beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, which is the one-year anniversary of the adoption of EITF 04-13.
Acquisitions did not have an impact on the overall sales growth rate for fiscal 2007. Fiscal 2007 growth was due to
increased sales to marketing associate-served customers and multi-unit customers primarily through continued focus on
customer account penetration through the use of business reviews with customers, increases in the number of customer
contact personnel and efforts of our marketing associates.
The decrease of Broadline segment sales as a percentage of total SYSCO sales in fiscal 2007 as compared to fiscal 2006
was due primarily to contributions to sales growth from the acquisitions of specialty meat, specialty produce and SYGMA
operations during fiscal 2006. Marketing associate-served sales as a percentage of Broadline sales in the U.S. were
52.0% for fiscal 2007, as compared to 51.9% for fiscal 2006. SYSCO Brand sales as a percentage of Broadline sales in the
U.S. were 45.5% for fiscal 2007 as compared to 48.1% for fiscal 2006.
