Description: ARMK Aramark Holdings January 02, 2026

Aramark (NYSE: ARMK) delivers food and facilities services across education, healthcare, business-and-industry, sports, leisure, and corrections markets, operating through two geographic segments: Food & Support Services United States and Food & Support Services International.

Its portfolio includes managed dining, catering, and retail food services; non-clinical nutrition and procurement for hospitals; and a broad suite of facility-management functions such as custodial, energy management, grounds keeping, and capital-project oversight. The company also runs on-site restaurants, vending, concessions, and lodging services at sports and entertainment venues, plus correctional food, commissaries, and laundry operations.

Key recent metrics (FY 2023): revenue of roughly $15.8 billion, operating margin around 6 %, and earnings per share of $2.45. The business is heavily weighted toward education (≈ 45 % of revenue) and healthcare (≈ 30 %), making enrollment trends and hospital admission rates material drivers of top-line growth.

Economic sensitivities include rising labor costs and food-price inflation, which compress margins unless offset by price-pass-through or efficiency initiatives. A notable strategic shift was the 2021 spin-off of its uniform services, sharpening focus on core food-and-facility operations and improving cash-flow visibility.

Sector-wide, institutional food service firms are benefitting from increased demand for outsourced dining solutions as employers and institutions seek cost certainty and compliance with evolving health-safety standards.

For a deeper quantitative dive, the ValueRay platform offers granular segment-level metrics and peer comparisons that can help validate these observations.
