What are Wall Street analysts saying about SYSCO stock?

Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about SYSCO stock:

1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Sysco has outpaced the industry in the past six months, courtesy of strength of its U.S. Foodservice operations, wherein local case volumes rose for the 20th straight time in third-quarter fiscal 2019. The company is also gaining from its strategies for 2020, which include enhancing consumers’ experience, optimizing business, stimulating power of its people and achieving operational efficacy. These upsides along with focus on buyouts and cost-containment efforts helped the company deliver top and bottom-line growth in the third quarter. Also, these efforts should provide cushion against rising costs and international unit challenges. During the quarter, the U.S. Foodservice unit saw high supply-chain costs across warehouse and transportation. Moreover, the international unit was somewhat dragged by Brexit-related worries and currency woes." (6/11/2019)
2. Pivotal Research analysts commented, "We think the 3Q19 results reflect a combination of deep cost cutting in Sysco’s U.S. operations, Canada, and Europe and also some degree of financial engineering with respect to expense management. Within Sysco’s international operations, the core operating performance was particularly weak in 3Q. The decrease in revenue and in gross profit are clearly disconnected from the 30% improvement for international based on the adj. operating income growth reported for 3Q. In the U.S. Foodservice operations, the incremental softness in customer traffic (for independents in particular) is also in sharp contrast to the adjusted earnings growth reported in 3Q. We reiterate our SELL rating due to the structural challenges with Brakes, near-term headwinds across Europe, and continued volume pressure with independents in Sysco’s U.S. Foodservice operations."
