Cintas Corporation Announces Fiscal 2022 First Quarter Results

Cintas Corporation (Nasdaq: CTAS) today reported results for its fiscal 2022 first quarter ended August 31, 2021. Revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was $1.90 billion compared to $1.75 billion in last year’s first quarter, an increase of 8.6%. The organic revenue growth rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2022, which adjusts for the impacts of acquisitions, divestitures and foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, was also 8.6%. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) were $3.11 in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, an increase of 11.9% from last year's first quarter diluted EPS.

Gross margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was $902.8 million compared to $826.2 million in last year’s first quarter. Gross margin as a percentage of revenue increased 30 basis points to 47.6% for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to 47.3% in the first quarter of fiscal 2021.

Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 of $394.1 million increased 12.7% from last year’s first quarter operating income of $349.7 million. Operating income as a percentage of revenue increased 80 basis points to 20.8% in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to 20.0% in the first quarter of fiscal 2021.

Net income was $331.2 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2022, an increase of 10.4% from last year's first quarter net income of $300.0 million. First quarter of fiscal 2022 diluted EPS was $3.11, an increase of 11.9% from last year's first quarter diluted EPS of $2.78.

On September 15, 2021, Cintas paid shareholders $98.8 million in quarterly dividends in the aggregate. The amount per share of common stock paid of $0.95 represents a 26.7% increase over the Company's previous quarterly dividend.

Todd M. Schneider, Cintas' President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We are pleased with our start to fiscal 2022. I am proud of the execution of our employee-partners. They continue to navigate an unsettled environment by focusing on providing businesses with the products and services needed to help our customers get Ready for the Workday®. I look forward to another successful fiscal year."

Mr. Schneider concluded, "We are increasing our fiscal 2022 financial guidance. We are raising our annual revenue expectations from a range of $7.53 billion to $7.63 billion to a range of $7.58 billion to $7.67 billion and diluted EPS from a range of $10.35 to $10.75 to a range of $10.60 to $10.90. Please note the following regarding guidance:

  • Our fiscal 2022 effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 19.5% compared to a rate of 13.7% for fiscal 2021. The higher effective tax rate negatively impacts fiscal 2022 diluted EPS guidance by about $0.77 and diluted EPS growth by about 760 basis points;
  • Guidance does not include the impact of any future share buybacks or potential tax reform; and
  • Guidance assumes an uneven economic recovery caused by the surging COVID-19 delta variant. However, guidance does not contemplate significant COVID-19 pandemic-related setbacks such as stay-at-home orders and other restrictions, commonly referred to as lockdowns."

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Regulation G Disclosure

The press release contains a non-GAAP financial measure within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Company believes that this non-GAAP financial measure is appropriate to enhance understanding of its past performance as well as prospects for future performance. A reconciliation of the difference between this non-GAAP financial measure with the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is shown in the table within the narrative of the press release or below.
