Todd M. Schneider, Cintas’ President and Chief Executive Officer, stated “These results conclude an outstanding year for Cintas. We delivered record revenues and operating margins. Our 8.3% organic revenue growth demonstrates our ability to deliver strong results in a dynamic macro environment. Our all-time high gross margin reflects the outstanding performance of our employee-partners and the clear impact of our investments in technology, capacity and talent. These results continue to showcase the strength and resilience of Cintas' value proposition."

Mr. Schneider continued, "On June 11, 2026, UniFirst shareholders voted to approve the acquisition, and we and UniFirst each received a request for additional information (the "second request") from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission. Both of these developments were expected. We are excited about the substantial value we expect to create for shareholders and customers through the UniFirst transaction, and we look forward to welcoming UniFirst

Team Partners to Cintas once the transaction is complete. We still expect the acquisition to close in the second half of calendar 2026."

Mr. Schneider concluded, "For fiscal 2027, revenue is expected to be in the range of $12.10 billion to $12.25 billion, and our adjusted diluted EPS is expected to be in the range of $5.36 to $5.50."

The third quarter of fiscal 2026 effective tax rate was 20.6% compared to 21.0% in last year's third quarter.

On March 13, 2026, Cintas paid an aggregate quarterly dividend of $180.0 million to shareholders. During the first nine months of fiscal 2026, Cintas has returned $1.45 billion in capital to its shareholders in the form of share buybacks and dividends.

Todd M. Schneider, Cintas’ President and Chief Executive Officer, stated “We delivered another successful quarter with record revenues and strong operating margins. Our 8.2% organic growth and all-time high gross margins in each of our three route-based businesses reflect the outstanding performance of our employee-partners and the clear impact of our investments in technology, capacity and talent. These results continue to showcase the strength and resilience of Cintas' value proposition."

Mr. Schneider concluded, "On March 10, 2026, Cintas entered into an agreement to acquire UniFirst Corporation. We are excited about the substantial value we expect to create for shareholders and customers through the UniFirst transaction and we look forward to welcoming UniFirst Team Partners to Cintas once we complete the transaction. As we enter into the final quarter of fiscal 2026, we are raising our full fiscal year financial guidance. We are raising our annual revenue expectations to a range of $11.21 billion to $11.24 billion and raising our adjusted diluted EPS to a range of $4.86 to $4.90. The adjusted EPS guide does not include the impact of non-recurring transaction expenses related to the UniFirst acquisition. Our diversified customer base, proven track record of execution and world-class employee-partners position us exceptionally well for continued growth. We remain committed to our balanced capital allocation strategy and delivering value for our shareholders and our customers."

Please note the following regarding the annual revenue guidance:

•Both fiscal year 2026 and fiscal year 2025 have the same number of workdays for the year and by quarter.

•Guidance excludes expected impacts from the pending UniFirst acquisition.

•Guidance does not assume any future acquisitions.

•Guidance assumes a constant foreign currency exchange rate.

Please note the following regarding the adjusted diluted EPS guidance:

•Fiscal year 2026 interest, net is expected to be approximately $101.0 million compared to $95.5 million in fiscal year 2025, primarily as a result of refinancing senior notes at a higher interest rate in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, as well as higher variable rate interest expense from commercial paper as a result of buyback activity during fiscal 2026. Expected interest, net may change as a result of debt activity or issuance of commercial paper related to future share buybacks or acquisition activity.

•Fiscal year 2026 effective tax rate is expected to be 20.0%, which is the same as fiscal year 2025.

•Our adjusted diluted EPS guidance does not include the impact of future share buybacks or significant economic disruptions or downturn.

•Adjusted diluted EPS guidance excludes estimated non-recurring transaction costs related to the UniFi

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

On March 23, 2022, Cintas Corporation No. 2 (“Cintas No. 2”), a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Cintas Corporation, a Washington corporation (the “Corporation”), entered into a $2,000 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which contains a letter of credit sub-facility of up to $300 million and a swing line sub-facility of up to $150 million pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) among Cintas No. 2, the lenders party thereto and KeyBank National Association, as Administrative Agent. The Credit Agreement provides Cintas No. 2 the ability to request increases in revolving commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility or new term loan facilities of up to $500 million in the aggregate, subject to customary conditions. The Revolving Credit Facility replaces Cintas No. 2’s existing credit facilities entered into on May 24, 2019.

The Revolving Credit Facility matures on March 23, 2027. Each swing loan made through the swing line sub-facility (a “Swing Loan”) has a maturity date of the earlier of (a) 15 days after the date such loan is made and (b) March 2027. The obligations of Cintas No. 2 under the Revolving Credit Facility have been guaranteed by the Corporation and certain of the Corporation’s material domestic subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”). The interest rate per annum applicable to loans under the Revolving Credit Facility, will be, in the case of a Swing Loan, the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), or, in the case of all other loans made under the Revolving Credit Facility and at Cintas No. 2’s option, equal to either (i) the relevant SOFR rate for the selected interest rate period plus an applicable margin of between 70 basis points and 122.5 basis points (as determined pursuant to the Credit Agreement) or (ii) the Base Rate.

The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants, including covenants that limit the ability of Cintas No. 2, the Corporation and the other Guarantors to, among other things (i) incur or suffer to exist certain liens, (ii) consolidate, merge, or sell substantially all of its assets, (iii) incur or create any restrictions on the ability to make loans, make investments, or transfer property and (iv) engage in transactions with affiliates. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require the Corporation to maintain (x) a leverage ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA of no more than 3.50 to 1.00, (y) an interest coverage ratio of consolidated EBIT to consolidated interest expense of at least 3.00 to 1.00 and (z) an aggregate amount of priority debt not to exceed 15% of consolidated total capitalization of the Corporation. The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an eve
