Cintas Corporation Announces Fiscal 2011 Second Quarter Results

 

CINCINNATI, December 21, 2010 — Cintas Corporation (Nasdaq:CTAS) today reported its results for the second quarter of its fiscal year 2011.  Revenue for the quarter, which ended November 30, 2010, was $936.6 million, representing a 5.9% increase compared to last year’s second quarter.  When adjusting for the impact of acquisitions, the organic revenue growth was 4.2%.

 

Net income and earnings per diluted share for the second quarter were $55.9 million and $0.38, respectively.  Last year’s net income and earnings per diluted share were $57.2 million and $0.37, respectively.  Last year’s second quarter results included a legal settlement, net of insurance proceeds, which reduced net income and earnings per diluted share by $2.5 million and $0.02, respectively.

 

Scott D. Farmer, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “I am pleased to report solid results for our second quarter.  Revenue in all four of our business segments grew over last year, and our organic growth rate improved from 2.8% in our first quarter to 4.2% in our second quarter.  Our sales force’s momentum continued to improve both in new business efforts and existing customer penetration.  In addition, our customer retention improved during the quarter.”

 

Mr. Farmer added, “Net income and earnings per diluted share were in line with our internal expectations.  We are pleased that our selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased sequentially despite one less workday from 31.8% in our first quarter to 30.8% in our second quarter.”

 

The Company’s balance sheet continues to be very strong.  Despite using $202 million of cash this fiscal year on our share buyback program, our cash and marketable securities were $285 million at November 30, 2010. Our total debt remained at $787 million and our total debt to total capitalization was 25%.

 

Mr. Farmer concluded, “Based on our second quarter results and our current outlook for the remainder of the year, we reiterate our fiscal 2011 revenue expectations to be in the range of $3.55 billion to $3.75 billion. We also continue to expect our fiscal 2011 earnings per diluted share to be in the range of $1.55 to $1.63.”

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Regulation G Disclosure

 

The press release contains non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.  To supplement its consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company provides additional measures of operating results, net earnings, net margin and earnings per share adjusted to exclude certain costs, expenses and gains and losses.  The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are appropriate to enhance understanding of its past performance as well as prospects for future performance.  A reconciliation of the differences between these non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP is shown below.

 

Management believes earnings per diluted share excluding the legal settlement charges provides investors pertinent information given the one-time nature of these charges.
