1302 ET - Sysco's fiscal 2026 guidance for $4.50 to $4.60 a share is a touch below the consensus estimate of analysts polled by FactSet, pressuring shares. But its midpoint of $4.55 a share is right in line with the consensus of BMO Capital Markets analysts, they say in a research note. It reflects some year-over-year growth of about 1% to 3% and is closer to the range of targets from buy-side analysts, they say. The outlook also appropriately accounts for headwinds from incentive bonuses that will hurt the bottom line and largely come into play during 3Q of the company's fiscal year ahead, the analysts say. Sysco slides 2.3% to $78.51. (dean.seal@wsj.com)
