On June 4, Cintas rose 3.06% in regular trading, trading at $179.99/share, with trading volume of approximately $111 million.
On the news front, RBC Capital Markets published a research note stating that despite headwinds from higher energy costs, Cintas is expected to beat fiscal Q4 estimates. The bank highlighted that incremental margins in the low-to-mid 30% range can offset energy cost pressures, while approximately 8% organic growth — even against tougher year-over-year comparisons — should support strong momentum. RBC believes this strength should drive the upper end of FY27 guidance above both their own and consensus estimates.
Additionally, regarding the proposed merger with UniFirst, RBC noted that deal closing is highly probable without requiring branch divestitures, removing a key regulatory overhang. RBC maintains a Sector Perform rating on Cintas with a $206 price target, implying notable upside from current levels.
