Pro Forma Results Clarification
The S-4's pro forma results are presented on a GAAP basis and include estimated deal-related amortization, but explicitly exclude the previously announced $250 million in committed cost synergies.
-
Jetro Restaurant Depot Historical Financials
The S-4 includes JRD's historical financial statements for the quarter ended March 2026 and the year ended December 2025, noting Q1 2026 volume growth was partially offset by deflation in certain categories.

Operating Margin and Accounting Notes
Operating profit margins for JRD in the S-4 reflect approximately 19% gross profit margins and 6% SG&A margins. The filing cautions against directly comparing operating profit figures to previously disclosed adjusted EBITDA due to the inclusion of depreciation and amortization.
