Reading
The figures above are taken directly from filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The reading below was generated by a local language model from only those figures; it introduces no numbers of its own. It is not investment advice.
Cintas Corporation’s business scale is substantial, with a revenue of $10.34 billion in the most recent annual period, reflecting steady growth from $3.77 billion in 2009. The company’s mix appears to be diversified, as evidenced by consistent revenue expansion over 16 years, averaging a 6.5% annual pace. This growth trajectory indicates resilience and adaptability in its operations.
The multi-year trend reveals not only scale but also improving profitability. Net income has grown from $215.6 million in 2010 to $1.81 billion in 2025, with net margins expanding from 6.1% to 17.5%. This suggests enhanced operational efficiency and pricing power. The most recent quarterly revenue of $2.84 billion underscores this strength, marking the highest quarterly revenue in the tracked history.
In upcoming filings, investors should monitor Cintas’ ability to sustain its growth momentum amidst potential economic headwinds and competition. Additionally, scrutiny of gross profit margins will be crucial, given their correlation with pricing strategies and cost management. The company’s robust cash flow generation, evident in both annual and quarterly figures, provides a financial cushion for future investments or market fluctuations.
