USD 57.00 target meets Q3 growth

Simply Wall St reported that Aramark generated USD 5.06 billion of revenue in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, up 9.30 percent from the third quarter of fiscal 2025. Net income reached USD 97.70 million in the same period, up 36.00 percent year over year.

The latest quarterly numbers show growth carrying the story, but not every profit measure moved in the same direction. Aramark's standardized financial data show operating profit of USD 215.59 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2026, compared with USD 219.75 million in the second quarter.

Guidance points to data center ramp

According to Fortune on August 11, 2026, Aramark raised its fiscal 2026 organic revenue growth outlook to 9.00 percent-10.00 percent and reaffirmed adjusted earnings per share growth of 20.00 percent-25.00 percent. The same transcript said new client wins totaled more than USD 1.60 billion fiscal year to date, 51.00 percent above the comparable prior-year period.

Management also expects USD 400 million to USD 500 million of revenue from data-center contracts during fiscal 2027 and fiscal 2028, with the first site expected to add USD 150 million. That opportunity gives the higher target a measurable operating thesis, while execution across large, project-based contracts remains the central counterweight.

Aramark's website says the company works with thousands of clients and serves more than 100 million guests nationwide every day. Its business spans food services, facilities management, hospitality management and supply-chain services, giving the data-center strategy a broader operating base than a single contract.
