Sysco Corporation (SYY): score, valuation & FAQ
Sysco Corporation (SYY) is a Food Distribution company that scores 52.9 out of 100 on the Bull Rankings quality-growth model — a middling reading. The score blends three pillars — quality (durable returns, healthy margins, low leverage), growth (revenue and earnings), and value (valuation versus sector peers) — into one number, refreshed daily; it is a screen, not a buy recommendation.
Its strongest graded signals are PEG (B+), while D/E (D) rate weaker. On valuation, SYY sits about 9% below our discounted-cash-flow fair value (a margin of safety) — the current price implies free cash flow growing about 3% next year, rising to 4% a year by year ten.
Is SYY a good stock to buy?
Bull Rankings scores SYY 52.9 out of 100 on its quality-growth model, which is a middling reading. That is driven by PEG (B+). A score is a quantitative screen of Sysco Corporation's fundamentals, not personalised financial advice — weigh it against your own time horizon and risk tolerance, and read the risk factors below before acting.
Why does SYY score 52.9 on Bull Rankings?
The score leans on quality at 71.4 out of 100, with value the weakest pillar at 38.7 — the three combine geometrically, so a weak one cannot be papered over by a strong one. SYY earns its highest marks on PEG (B+), and is held back by D/E (D). Each signal is graded against sector-aware thresholds rather than one absolute bar, so SYY is measured against Food Distribution peers, not against the market as a whole.
Is SYY overvalued or undervalued?
Based on $78.14, SYY sits about 9% below our discounted-cash-flow fair value (a margin of safety) — the current price implies free cash flow growing about 3% next year, rising to 4% a year by year ten. It trades at a 21.3x P/E (graded B). Discounted-cash-flow estimates are sensitive to growth and discount-rate assumptions, so treat this as a cross-check, not a price target.
What are the main risks of investing in SYY?
D/E 5.65 is elevated — limits strategic flexibility and raises refinancing exposure if rates stay higher for longer. Net margin 2.1% is thin — operating leverage cuts both ways; input-cost inflation or pricing pressure hits the bottom line first.
