Vestis’ fiscal 2024 revenue decreased 0.7% versus fiscal 2023. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, Vestis’ revenue decreased 0.6%.
Fiscal 2024 adjusted EBITDA margin declined by 170 basis points, which included an approximately 65 basis point impact from higher public company costs as compared to the prior year. The net effect of lower volumes, higher net energy costs (net of the elimination of the prior year temporary energy fee), and higher public company costs outweighed the favorable impact of pricing compared to the prior year.

Vestis’ fourth quarter fiscal 2024 revenue decreased 4.4% versus the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, Vestis’ revenue decreased 4.3%.
Fourth quarter fiscal 2024 adjusted EBITDA margin declined by 400 basis points, which included an approximately 75 basis point impact from higher public company costs as compared to the prior year. The margin decline was primarily attributable to lower net volumes and lower pricing from the erosion of price increases that favorably impacted the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
Vestis’ net cash provided by operating activities of $471.8 million for fiscal year 2024 increased 83.6% relative to fiscal year 2023. Free cash flow of $165.2 million for fiscal year 2024 decreased (13.2)% relative to fiscal year 2023.
As of September 27, 2024, total principal debt outstanding was $1.16 billion, which represents a $337.5 million reduction in fiscal 2024 of which $298.0 million was voluntarily prepaid at the time of payment. Net leverage was 3.62x at the end of fiscal 2024 compared to 3.95x at the end of fiscal 2023.
Vestis Enters into $250 Million Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility
On August 2, 2024, certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of Vestis entered into a three-year $250 million accounts receivable securitization facility (the “A/R Facility”). Under the A/R Facility, these subsidiaries transfer accounts receivable and certain related assets to VS Financing, LLC, a bankruptcy remote special purpose entity formed as a wholly-owned subsidiary, who in turn, may sell the receivables to a financial institution. The net proceeds from the initial trade receivables sold under the A/R Facility were used to repay a portion of the outstanding borrowings under the existing term loans.
Declaration of Quarterly Dividend
The company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.035 per common share payable on January 6, 2025 to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 13, 2024.
Fiscal Year 2025 Outlook
The Company expects fiscal 2025 revenue to be in the range of $2.8 billion to $2.83 billion and fiscal 2025 Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $345 million to $360 million.
The Company’s fiscal 2025 guidance is provided on a normalized 52-week fiscal year basis. Fiscal 2025 reported financials will include the impact of a 53rd week, with the extra week impacting the fourth quarter.
The Company’s strategic imperatives include disciplined capital allocation with deleveraging as a priority. The Company continues to expect strong free cash flow conversion and anticipate a ratio of free cash flow to Adjusted EBITDA of approximately 50%.
Forward Looking Non-GAAP Information
This release includes certain non-GAAP financial information that is forward-looking in nature, including without limitation adjusted EBITDA margin. Vestis believes that a quantitative reconciliation of such forward-looking information to the most comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP cannot be made available without unreasonable efforts. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures would require Vestis to predict the timing and likelihood of among other things future acquisitions and divestitures, restructurings, asset impairments, other charges and other factors not within Vestis’ control. Neither these forward-looking measures, nor their probable significance, can be quantified with a reasonable degree of accuracy. Accordingly, the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures are not provided. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding GAAP financial measures. The estimates of revenue growth for fiscal year 2025 and adjusted EBITDA margin for fiscal year 2025 do not attempt to forecast currency fluctuations and, accordingly, reflect an assumption of constant currency.
Conference Call Information
Vestis will host a webcast to discuss its fiscal fourth quarter 2024 results and outlook on Thursday, November 21, 2024 at 8:30 AM ET. The webcast can be accessed live through the investor relations section of the Company’s website at www.vestis.com. Additionally, a slide presentation will accompany the call and will also be available on the Company’s website. A replay of the live event will be available on the Company’s website shortly after the call for 90 days.

The above list of factors is not exhaustive or necessarily in order of importance. For additional information on identifying factors that may cause actual results to vary materially from those stated in forward-looking statements, see Vestis’ filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Non-GAAP Definitions
This release could include certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted Revenue Growth (Organic), Adjusted Revenue (Organic), Adjusted Revenue Growth excluding Temporary Energy Fee, Adjusted Revenue excluding Temporary Energy Fee, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Income Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow, Net Debt, Net Leverage and Free Cash Flow to Adjusted EBITDA Ratio. Vestis utilizes these measures when monitoring and evaluating operating performance. The non-GAAP financial measures presented herein are supplemental measures of Vestis’ performance that Vestis believes help investors because they enable better comparisons of Vestis’ historical results and allow Vestis’ investors to evaluate its performance based on the same metrics that Vestis uses to evaluate its performance and trends in its results. Vestis’ presentation of these metrics has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of Vestis’ results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Because of their limitations, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as measures of cash available to Vestis to invest in the growth of Vestis’ business or that will be available to Vestis to meet its obligations. Vestis compensates for these limitations by using these non-GAAP financial measures along with other comparative tools, together with U.S. GAAP financial measures, to assist in the evaluation of operating performance. You should not consider these measures as alternatives to revenue, operating income, operating income margin, net income, net income margin or net cash provided by operating activities determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Vestis believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to the corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measures, are important supplemental measures which exclude non-cash or other items that may not be indicative of or are unrelated to Vestis’ core operating results and the overall health of Vestis. Non-GAAP financial measures as presented by Vestis may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies because not all companies use identical calculations.
Adjusted Revenue Growth (Organic)
Adjusted Revenue Growth (Organic) measures our revenue growth trends excluding the impact of acquisitions and foreign currency, and we believe it is useful for investors to understand growth through internal efforts. We define “organic revenue growth” as the growth in revenues, excluding (i) acquisitions, (ii) the impact of foreign currency exchange rate changes, and (iii) the impact of the 53rd week, when applicable.
Adjusted Revenue (Organic)
