Summary
Cintas issued fiscal-year revenue guidance of $12.1 billion to $12.25 billion, above consensus, and provided FY27 adjusted EPS guidance of $5.36 to $5.50. The company reported fourth-quarter revenue of $2.91 billion, beating estimates, with organic revenue growth of 8.4% and adjusted EPS of $1.29. Full-year fiscal 2026 revenue was $11.26 billion with adjusted EPS of $4.94. The outlook reflects confidence in organic growth and the pending $5.5 billion UniFirst acquisition, which remains under FTC review and is still expected to close in the second half of calendar 2026. With the stock at $186.5 and a $73.7 billion market cap, the revenue target implies a forward price-to-sales multiple that may attract buyers if the deal closes as expected.
