Reported and organic sales growth in the fourth quarter for all three business segments was impacted by ongoing energy headwinds versus the prior year. Additionally, both of our FSS segment revenues were impacted by previously announced strategic portfolio actions that reduce revenues, but are accretive to margins. Specific to the North America FSS segment, revenue results were positively impacted by operations in Yosemite National Park, partially offset by results in our Healthcare sector.

In the fourth quarter, the Company experienced food and labor productivity gains in its FSS base accounts. Both FSS North America and FSS International also benefited from the Company’s previously announced portfolio optimization efforts. Productivity initiatives, previous capacity expansion and improved automation supported strong margin gains in the Uniform & Career Apparel segment in the quarter.

FOURTH QUARTER SUMMARY
On a GAAP basis, sales were $3.5 billion, operating income was $191 million, net income attributable to Aramark stockholders was $83 million and diluted earnings per share were $0.33. This compares to the fourth quarter of 2015 where on a GAAP basis, sales were $3.5 billion, operating income was $154 million, net income attributable to Aramark stockholders was $57 million and diluted earnings per share were $0.23. Fourth quarter GAAP diluted earnings per share increased 43% year-over-year.

Adjusted net income was $122 million or $0.49 per share, versus adjusted net income of $109 million or $0.44 per share in the fourth quarter of 2015.

The stronger U.S. dollar versus the prior year period decreased sales by approximately $34 million, or 1%. Earnings were not materially affected by currency translation in the quarter.

During the quarter, the Company excluded approximately $24 million, or 1% from the calculation of organic sales and $1.0 million of operating income from the calculation of adjusted operating income related to its acquisition of the Irish specialty food and merchandise retailing company, Avoca Handweavers Limited. The results from this entity will be excluded from organic growth and adjusted operating income calculations during the first year of ownership.

FISCAL 2016 RESULTS
On a GAAP basis, sales were $14.4 billion, operating income was $746 million, net income attributable to Aramark stockholders was $288 million and diluted earnings per share were $1.16. This compares to 2015 where, on a GAAP basis, sales were $14.3 billion, operating income was $628 million, net income attributable to Aramark stockholders was $236 million and diluted earnings per share were $0.96. Full-year 2016 GAAP diluted earnings per share increased 21% year-over-year.

Adjusted net income was $425 million or $1.71 per share, versus adjusted net income of $387 million or $1.57 per share in 2015.

DIVIDEND INCREASE & DECLARATION
In recognition of the Company’s improving growth and profitability, the Company’s Board of Directors is increasing the regular quarterly dividend by 8% to 10.3 cents per share of common stock. The first quarter fiscal 2017 dividend, at the increased rate, will be payable on December 8, 2016, to stockholders of record at the close of business November 28, 2016.
       
FREE CASH FLOW, LIQUIDITY & CAPITAL STRUCTURE
Free cash flow improved 80% year-over-year to $321 million partially due to higher net income, a reduction in pension contributions, and the timing of certain capital expenditures. Total trailing 12-month debt to covenant adjusted EBITDA was 3.9x, an approximate 30 basis point reduction versus the prior year measurement. Corporate liquidity remains strong, and at quarter end the company had approximately $865 million in cash and availability on its revolving credit facility. As of September 30, 2016 the Company’s total debt was $5.3 billion.

2017 OUTLOOK
The Company provides a range for the full-year EPS guidance on a non-GAAP basis, and does not provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking non-GAAP measures to GAAP due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation.

As the Company has previously indicated, it expects 2017 operational earnings to be consistent with its multi-year framework of low double-digit adjusted EPS growth. In addition, the Company expects a modest tax rate reduction from a combination of planning initiatives and the adoption of new accounting standards related to employee share-based compensation.

Based on current foreign exchange rates, currency translation is expected to be a $0.01 - $0.02 per share headwind to adjusted EPS in 2017. Taking these factors into account, 2017 adjusted EPS is expected to be within a range of $1.85 to $1.95 per share.
     
CONFERENCE CALL SCHEDULED
The Company has scheduled a conference call at 10 a.m. Eastern Standard Time today to discuss its earnings. This call and related materials can be heard and reviewed, either live or on a delayed basis, on the Company's web site, www.aramark.com on the investor relations page.

Selected Operational and Financial Metrics

Adjusted Sales (Organic)
Management believes that presentation of sales growth, adjusted to eliminate the effects of material acquisitions and divestitures and the impact of currency translation, provides useful information to investors because it enhances comparability between the current year and prior year reporting periods.

Adjusted Operating Income
Adjusted Operating Income represents operating income adjusted to eliminate the change in amortization of acquisition-related customer relationship intangible assets and depreciation of property and equipment resulting from the going-private transaction in 2007 (the "2007 LBO"); the impact of the change in fair value related to certain gasoline and diesel agreements; severance and other charges; share-based compensation; the effects of material acquisitions and divestitures and other items impacting comparability.

Adjusted Operating Income (Constant Currency)
Adjusted Operating Income (Constant Currency) represents Adjusted Operating Income adjusted to eliminate the impact of currency translation.

Covenant Adjusted EBITDA
Covenant Adjusted EBITDA represents net income attributable to Aramark stockholders adjusted for interest and other financing costs, net; provision (benefit) for income taxes; depreciation and amortization; and certain other items as defined in our debt agreements required in calculating covenant ratios and debt compliance.

Adjusted Net Income
Adjusted Net Income represents net income attributable to Aramark stockholders adjusted to eliminate the change in amortization of acquisition-related customer relationship intangible assets and depreciation of property and equipment resulting from the 2007 LBO; the impact of changes in the fair value related to certain gasoline and diesel agreements; severance and other charges; share-based compensation; the effects of material acquisitions and divestitures and other items impacting comparability, less the tax impact of these adjustments. The tax effect for adjusted net income for our U.S. earnings is calculated using a blended U.S. federal and state tax rate. The tax effect for adjusted net income in jurisdictions outside the U.S. is calculated at the U.S. federal tax rate. Management believes that the presentation of adjusted net income is useful information to investors because we use such information when evaluating net income to better evaluate the underlying operating performance of the Company.

Adjusted Net Income (Constant Currency)
Adjusted Net Income (Constant Currency) represents Adjusted Net Income adjusted to eliminate the impact of currency translation.

We use Adjusted Sales (Organic), Adjusted Operating Income (including on a constant currency basis), Covenant Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income (including on a constant currency basis) as supplemental measures of our operating profitability and to control our cash operating costs. We believe these financial measures are useful to investors because they enable better comparisons of our historical results and allow our investors to evaluate our performance based on the same metrics that we use to evaluate our performance and trends in our results. These financial metrics are not measurements of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Our presentation of these metrics 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 GAAP. You should not consider these measures as alternatives to sales, operating income or net income, determined in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted Sales (Organic), Adjusted Operating Income, Covenant Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income as presented by us, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies because not all companies use identical calculations.

Free Cash Flow
Free Cash Flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less net purchases of property and equipment, client contract investments and other.

These factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with the other cautionary statements that are included in this release and in our 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.
