* May not total due to rounding. A majority of our Canadian operations were reclassified into the FSS International reportable segment beginning in fiscal 2018. The prior-year period was restated to conform to the current period presentation.

Consolidated sales were $4.0 billion in the quarter, an increase of 9% on a constant-currency basis over the prior-year period, composed of a 5% increase in revenue related to the Avendra and AmeriPride acquisitions and 4% of growth related to the legacy business. Legacy business growth was positively impacted in the United States and International by the timing of the Easter holiday.

The Company continues to deliver productivity improvements across all segments. In addition, uniform income benefited from the inclusion of a full quarter of AmeriPride results.

THIRD QUARTER SUMMARY

On a GAAP basis, sales were $4.0 billion, operating income was $188 million, net income attributable to Aramark stockholders was $73 million and diluted earnings per share were $0.29. This compares to the third quarter of 2017 where, on a GAAP basis, sales were $3.6 billion, operating income was $155 million, net income attributable to Aramark stockholders was $65 million and diluted earnings per share were $0.26. Third quarter GAAP diluted earnings per share increased 12% year-over-year.

Adjusted net income was $120 million or $0.48 per share, versus adjusted net income of $100 million or $0.40 per share in the third quarter of 2017. A weaker U.S. dollar increased sales by approximately $52 million, and increased operating income by $3 million and provided a one-cent benefit to adjusted earnings per share.

CAPITAL STRUCTURE & LIQUIDITY

Total trailing 12-month net debt to covenant adjusted EBITDA was 4.6x at the end of the quarter, a 10 basis point decrease versus the end of the second quarter of 2018.

At quarter-end the company had approximately $1.1 billion in cash and availability on its revolving credit facility.

2018 OUTLOOK

The Company provides its expectations for full-year adjusted EPS and full-year free cash flow on a non-GAAP basis, and does not provide a reconciliation of such forward-looking non-GAAP measures to GAAP due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliations, including adjustments that could be made for the impact of the change in fair value related to certain gasoline and diesel agreements, severance and other charges and the effect of currency translation.

The Company is reaffirming its 2018 adjusted EPS outlook of $2.20 to $2.30 per share, which includes 2 cents of currency benefit. The Company is affirming its full-year free cash flow outlook of greater than $400 million. This outlook reflects an expectation of approximately $100 million benefit due to tax reform and the results of the acquisitions, offset by approximately $135 million in deal-related costs and certain assumed obligations related to the acquisitions. The Company expects its leverage ratio to be below 4.5x by the end of the fiscal year.

The Company has scheduled a conference call at 10 a.m. ET today to discuss its earnings and outlook. This call and related materials can be heard and reviewed, either live or on a delayed basis, on the Company's web site, www.aramark.com on the investor relations page.

Selected Operational and Financial Metrics

Constant Currency Sales

Constant Currency Sales represents sales growth, adjusted to eliminate the impact of currency translation.

Legacy Business Sales

Legacy Business Sales represents sales excluding the impact of currency translation and the sales of AmeriPride and Avendra.

Adjusted Operating Income

Adjusted Operating Income represents operating income adjusted to eliminate the change in amortization of acquisition-related customer relationship intangible assets resulting from the going-private transaction in 2007 (the "2007 LBO"); the impact of the change in fair value related to certain gasoline and diesel agreements; severance and other charges; share-based compensation; merger and integration related charges and other items impacting comparability.

Adjusted Operating Income (Constant Currency)

Adjusted Operating Income (Constant Currency) represents Adjusted Operating Income adjusted to eliminate the impact of currency translation.

Adjusted Net Income

Adjusted Net Income represents net income attributable to Aramark stockholders adjusted to eliminate the change in amortization of acquisition-related customer relationship intangible assets resulting from the 2007 LBO; the impact of changes in the fair value related to certain gasoline and diesel agreements; severance and other charges; share-based compensation; merger and integration related charges; the effects of refinancings on interest and other financing costs, net; the impact of tax reform and other items impacting comparability, less the tax impact of these adjustments. The tax effect for adjusted net income for our U.S. earnings is calculated using a blended U.S. federal and state tax rate. The tax effect for adjusted net income in jurisdictions outside the U.S. is calculated at the local country tax rate.

Adjusted Net Income (Constant Currency)

Adjusted Net Income (Constant Currency) represents Adjusted Net Income adjusted to eliminate the impact of currency translation.

Adjusted EPS

Adjusted EPS represents Adjusted Net Income divided by diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

Covenant Adjusted EBITDA

Covenant Adjusted EBITDA represents net income attributable to Aramark stockholders adjusted for interest and other financing costs, net; provision (benefit) for income taxes; depreciation and amortization; and certain other items as defined in our debt agreements required in calculating covenant ratios and debt compliance. The Company also uses Net Debt for its ratio to Covenant Adjusted EBITDA, which is calculated as total long-term borrowings less cash and cash equivalents.

Free Cash Flow

Free Cash Flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less net purchases of property and equipment, client contract investments and other. Management believes that the presentation of free cash flow provides useful information to investors because it represents a measure of cash flow available for distribution among all the security holders of the Company.

We use Constant Currency Sales, Adjusted Operating Income (including on a constant currency basis), Covenant Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income (including on a constant currency basis), Adjusted EPS (including on a constant currency basis) and Free Cash Flow as supplemental measures of our operating profitability and to control our cash operating costs. We believe these financial measures are useful to investors because they enable better comparisons of our historical results and allow our investors to evaluate our performance based on the same metrics that we use to evaluate our performance and trends in our results. These financial metrics are not measurements of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP. Our presentation of these metrics has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. You should not consider these measures as alternatives to sales, operating income, net income, or earnings per share, determined in accordance with GAAP. Constant Currency Sales, Adjusted Operating Income, Covenant Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS and Free Cash Flow as presented by us, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies because not all companies use identical calculations.
