Energy expenses comprised of gasoline, natural gas and electricity were 65 basis points lower for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to last year’s fourth quarter.<\/p>\n
\nOperating income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 was $470.8 million compared to $404.4 million in last year’s fourth quarter, an increase of 16.4%. Operating income as a percentage of revenue was 20.6% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to 19.5% in last year’s fourth quarter.<\/p>\n
\nNet income was $346.2 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 compared to $294.5 million in last year’s fourth quarter. Fourth quarter of fiscal 2023 diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $3.33 compared to $2.81 in last year’s fourth quarter, an increase of 18.5%.<\/p>\n
\nOn June 15, 2023, Cintas paid an aggregate quarterly cash dividend of $117.6 million to shareholders, an increase of 20.6% from the amount paid last June.<\/p>\n
\nFor the fiscal year ended May 31, 2023, revenue was $8.82 billion compared to $7.85 billion for fiscal 2022, an increase of 12.2%. Operating income for fiscal 2023 was $1.80 billion compared to $1.59 billion for fiscal 2022, an increase of 13.6%. Operating income as a percent of revenue was 20.4% in fiscal 2023 compared to 20.2% in fiscal 2022. Diluted EPS for fiscal 2023 was $12.99 compared to $11.65 in fiscal 2022, an increase of 11.5%. Fiscal year 2022 operating income and diluted EPS included a $12.1 million gain on sale of operating assets and a $30.2 million gain on an equity method investment transaction. Excluding the gains, fiscal 2023 operating income of $1.80 billion increased 16.7% compared to fiscal 2022 adjusted operating income of $1.55 billion, and our operating income as a percent of revenue improved to 20.4% from our fiscal 2022 adjusted operating margin of 19.7%. Excluding the gains, fiscal 2023 diluted EPS of $12.99 increased 15.2% compared to fiscal 2022 adjusted diluted EPS of $11.28.<\/p>\n
\nTodd M. Schneider, Cintas’ President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are pleased with our fourth quarter financial results. They conclude a very successful fiscal year, which included double-digit growth in revenue, operating income and diluted EPS. Our business continues to demonstrate momentum as we can provide nearly every business across North America a product or service to help them build a better workday. All businesses care about image, safety, cleanliness and compliance, and businesses continue to outsource to Cintas in order to concentrate on their core competency. Through innovative solutions and routine service visits, our employee-partners take care of the important tasks that help our customers keep their workplaces running smoothly.”<\/p>\n
\nMr. Schneider concluded, “For our fiscal 2024, we expect revenue to be in the range of $9.35 billion to $9.50 billion and diluted EPS to be in the range of $13.85 to $14.35. Please note the following regarding guidance:<\/p>\n
- \n
- \nFiscal year 2024 interest expense is expected to be approximately $98.0 million compared to $109.5 million in fiscal year 2023, predominately as a result of lower variable rate debt. This may change as a result of future share buybacks or acquisition activity;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nOur fiscal 2024 effective tax rate is expected to be 21.3% compared to a rate of 20.4% for fiscal 2023. The higher effective tax rate negatively impacts fiscal 2024 diluted EPS guidance by about $0.16 and diluted EPS growth by about 120 basis points;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nGuidance does not include any future share buybacks or significant economic disruptions or downturn;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nGuidance includes the impact of having one more workday in fiscal 2024 compared to fiscal 2023.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Regulation G Disclosure<\/b><\/p>\n
\nThe press release contains non-GAAP financial measures within the meaning of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. To supplement its consolidated condensed financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company provides the additional non-GAAP financial measures of operating income, earnings per diluted share and cash flow. 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 measure calculated in accordance with GAAP are shown in the tables below.<\/p>\n

\n \nIn connection with the acquisition of the remaining interest in an equity method investment during the third quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company was required by U.S. GAAP to remeasure its existing interest in the equity method investment at its acquisition-date fair value and recognize the resulting gain in operating income. The gain taxed at the statutory tax rate resulted in an earnings per share benefit of $0.21. However, the actual tax rate associated with the transaction was significantly lower than the statutory tax rate resulting in an additional earnings per share benefit of $0.07.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n

\nManagement uses free cash flow to assess the financial performance of the Company. Management believes that free cash flow is useful to investors because it relates the operating cash flow of the Company to the capital that is spent to continue, improve and grow business operations.<\/p>\n
