The company's recent announcement of a special interim dividend of €6.24 per share highlights its commitment to returning value to shareholders. Despite having a high level of debt, Sodexo's recent upsizing of its Syndicated Revolving Credit Facility to €1.75 billion provides additional liquidity headroom and aligns with sustainability commitments.
