NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The consolidated condensed financial statements of Cintas Corporation (Cintas, the Company, we, us or our) included herein have been prepared by Cintas, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. While we believe that the disclosures are adequately presented, it is suggested that these consolidated condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011. A summary of our significant accounting policies is presented beginning on page 38 of that report. There have been no material changes in the accounting policies followed by Cintas during the current fiscal year.

As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011, inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Inventory is comprised of the following amounts:

|  |  | February 29, |  | May 31, |
(In thousands) |  |  | 2012 |  | 2011 |
Raw materials |  |  | $ | 18,655 |  | $ | 16,900 |
Work in process |  |  | 13,731 |  | 18,907 |
Finished goods |  |  | 243,287 |  | 213,851 |
|  |  | $ | 275,673 |  | $ | 249,658 |

Interim results are subject to variations and are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for a full fiscal year. In the opinion of management, adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the consolidated results of the interim periods shown have been made.

2. New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new guidance on the presentation of other comprehensive income. The new guidance eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity and requires an entity to present either one continuous statement of net income and other comprehensive income or two separate, but consecutive, statements. This new guidance is effective for Cintas for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending May 31, 2013, and is to be applied retrospectively. Cintas does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In September 2011, the FASB issued new guidance with respect to the annual goodwill impairment test, which adds a qualitative assessment that allows companies to determine whether they need to perform the two-step impairment test. The objective of the guidance is to simplify how companies test goodwill for impairment and, more specifically, to reduce the cost and complexity of performing the goodwill impairment test. The guidance may change how the goodwill impairment test is performed, but should not change the timing or measurement of goodwill impairments. The qualitative screen is effective for companies with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted for all companies. Cintas will consider the new guidance in performing its annual goodwill impairment test when appropriate.

3. Fair Value Measurements

FASB Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) Topic 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. It also establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The three levels of inputs used to measure fair value are as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Cintas’ assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

In order to meet the requirements of ASC 820, Cintas utilizes two basic valuation approaches to determine the fair value of its assets and liabilities required to be recorded on a recurring basis at fair value. The first approach is the cost approach. The cost approach is generally the value a market participant would expect to replace the respective asset or liability. The second approach is the market approach. The market approach looks at what a market participant would consider valuing an exact or similar asset or liability to that of Cintas, including those traded on exchanges.

All financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (at least annually) have been segregated into the most appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to determine the fair value at the consolidated balance sheet date. These financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below:

(In thousands) |  |  | As of February 29, 2012 |
|  |  | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3 |  | Fair Value |
Cash and cash equivalents |  |  | $ | 217,983 |  | $ | — |  | $ | — |  | $ | 217,983 |
Marketable securities: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Cintas’ cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities are generally classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. The types of financial instruments based on quoted market prices in active markets include most bank deposits, money market securities and certain Canadian treasury securities. Such instruments are generally classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Cintas does not adjust the quoted market price for such financial instruments.

The types of financial instruments valued based on quoted market prices in markets that are not active, broker or dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency include certain Canadian treasury securities (primarily agency debt obligations). The primary inputs to value Cintas’ marketable securities is the respective instruments future cash flows based on its stated yield and the amount a market participant would pay for a similar instrument. The valuation technique used for Cintas’ marketable securities classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy is primarily the market approach. Primarily all of Cintas’ marketable securities are actively traded and the recorded fair value reflects current market conditions. However, due to the inherent volatility in the investment market, there is at least a possibility that recorded investment values may change in the near term.

The funds invested in Canadian marketable securities are not presently expected to be repatriated, but instead are expected to be invested indefinitely in foreign subsidiaries. However, Cintas may consider repatriating if the operating or international opportunities change. Interest, realized gains and losses and declines in value determined to be other than temporary on available-for-sale securities are included in interest income or expense. The cost of the securities sold is based on the specific identification method. The amortized cost basis of the marketable securities as of February 29, 2012 and May 31, 2011 was $134.7 million and $87.3 million, respectively. All contractual maturities are due within one year.

Current accrued liabilities include foreign currency average rate options and forward contracts. The fair value of Cintas’ foreign currency average rate options and forward contracts are based on similar exchange traded derivatives (market approach) and are, therefore, included within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The methods described above may produce a fair value that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while Cintas believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the consolidated balance sheet date.

Cintas’ non-financial assets and liabilities not permitted or required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis primarily relate to assets and liabilities acquired in a business acquisition. Cintas is required to provide additional disclosures about fair value measurements as part of the consolidated financial statements for each major category of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis (including business acquisitions). Based on the nature of Cintas’ business acquisitions, which occur regularly throughout the fiscal year, the majority of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed consist of working capital, primarily valued using Level 2 inputs, property and equipment, also primarily valued using Level 2 inputs and goodwill and other identified intangible assets valued using Level 3 inputs. In general, non-recurring fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities, which generally are not applicable to non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable, such as definitive sales agreements, appraisals or established market values of comparable assets. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability, such as internal estimates of future cash flows.

6. Debt, Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Cintas’ commercial paper program has a capacity of $300.0 million that is fully supported by a backup revolving credit facility through a credit agreement with its banking group. This revolving credit facility has an accordion feature that allows for a maximum borrowing capacity of $450.0 million. The revolving credit facility was amended on October 7, 2011, to extend the maturity date from September 26, 2014 to October 6, 2016, to improve the applicable margin used to calculate the interest rate payable on any outstanding loans and the facility fee payable under the agreement and to replace the financial covenant regarding Cintas’ net funded indebtedness to total capitalization with a requirement to maintain a leverage ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (debt to EBITDA) of no more than 3.5 to 1.0. We believe this program, along with cash generated from operations, will be adequate to provide necessary funding for our future cash requirements. No commercial paper or borrowings under our revolving credit facility were outstanding as of February 29, 2012 or May 31, 2011.

Cintas used interest rate lock agreements to hedge against movements in the treasury rates at the time Cintas issued its senior notes in fiscal 2002, fiscal 2007, fiscal 2008 and fiscal 2011. The amortization of the interest rate lock agreements resulted in an increase to other comprehensive income of $0.4 million and $0.2 million for the three months ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, respectively, and $1.1 million and $0.6 million for the nine months ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, respectively.

To hedge the exposure of movements in the foreign currency rates, Cintas uses foreign currency hedges. These hedges reduce the impact on cash flows from movements in the foreign currency exchange rates. Examples of foreign currency hedge instruments that Cintas may use are average rate options and forward contracts. Cintas had average rate options and forward contracts outstanding, included in current accrued liabilities, of less than $0.1 million and $0.9 million at February 29, 2012 and May 31, 2011, respectively. There were no costs related to the average rate options that settled during the three months ended February 29, 2012. The average rate options that settled during the three months ended February 28, 2011, increased foreign currency exchange costs by $0.1 million. The average rate options increased foreign currency exchange costs by less than $0.1 million during both the nine months ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, respectively.

Cintas has certain covenants related to debt agreements. These covenants limit Cintas’ ability to incur certain liens, to engage in sale-leaseback transactions and to merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of Cintas’ assets. These covenants also require Cintas to maintain certain debt to EBITDA and interest coverage ratios. Cross-default provisions exist between certain debt instruments. If a default of a significant covenant were to occur, the default could result in an acceleration of the maturity of the indebtedness, impair liquidity and limit the ability to raise future capital. As of February 29, 2012, Cintas was in compliance with all significant debt covenants.

7. Income Taxes

In the normal course of business, Cintas provides for uncertain tax positions and the related interest and adjusts its unrecognized tax benefits and accrued interest accordingly. During the three months ended February 29, 2012, unrecognized tax benefits increased by approximately $0.1 million and accrued interest increased by approximately $0.6 million. During the nine months ended February 29, 2012, unrecognized tax benefits increased by approximately $0.1 million and accrued interest increased by approximately $2.2 million.

All U.S. federal income tax returns are closed to audit through fiscal 2008. Cintas is currently in advanced stages of audits in certain foreign jurisdictions and certain domestic states. The years under audit cover fiscal years back to 2004. Based on the resolution of the various audits, it is reasonably possible that the balance of unrecognized tax benefits could decrease by $12.8 million for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2012.

On December 23, 2011, the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service issued temporary regulations (Regulations Section 2011-14) that provide guidance on amounts paid to improve tangible property. These regulations also provide guidance on amounts paid to acquire or produce tangible property, as well as guidance regarding the disposition of property. Cintas is currently reviewing these regulations to determine the effect, if any, on Cintas’ consolidated financial statements.

8. Comprehensive Income

Total comprehensive income represents the net change in shareholders’ equity during a period from sources other than transactions with shareholders and, as such, includes net income. For Cintas, the only components of other comprehensive income are the change in cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments, the change in the fair value of derivatives, the amortization of interest rate lock agreements and the change in the fair value of available-for-sale securities. The components of comprehensive income are as follows:

9. Litigation and Other Contingencies

Cintas is subject to legal proceedings, insurance receipts, legal settlements and claims arising from the ordinary course of its business, including personal injury, customer contract, environmental and employment claims. In the opinion of management, the aggregate liability, if any, with respect to such ordinary course of business actions will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operation of Cintas. Cintas is party to additional litigation not considered in the ordinary course of business, including the litigation discussed below.

Cintas is a defendant in a purported class action lawsuit, Mirna E. Serrano, et al. v. Cintas Corporation (Serrano), filed on May 10, 2004, and pending in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division. The Serrano plaintiffs alleged that Cintas discriminated against women in hiring into various service sales representative positions across all divisions of Cintas. On November 15, 2005, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) intervened in the Serrano lawsuit. The Serrano plaintiffs seek injunctive relief, compensatory damages, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and other remedies. On October 27, 2008, the United States District Court in the Eastern District of Michigan granted summary judgment in favor of Cintas limiting the scope of the putative class in the Serrano lawsuit to female applicants for service sales representative positions at Cintas locations within the state of Michigan. Consequently, all claims brought by female applicants for service sales representative positions outside of the state of Michigan were dismissed. Similarly, any claims brought by the EEOC on behalf of similarly situated female applicants outside of the state of Michigan have also been dismissed from the Serrano lawsuit. Cintas is a defendant in another purported class action lawsuit, Blanca Nelly Avalos, et al. v. Cintas Corporation (Avalos), which was filed in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division. The Avalos plaintiffs alleged that Cintas discriminated against women, African-Americans and Hispanics in hiring into various service sales representative positions in Cintas’ Rental division only throughout the United States. The Avalos plaintiffs sought injunctive relief, compensatory damages, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and other remedies. The claims in Avalos originally were brought in the lawsuit captioned Robert Ramirez, et al. v. Cintas Corporation (Ramirez), filed on January 20, 2004, in the United States District Court, Northern District of California, San Francisco Division. On May 11, 2006, the Ramirez and Avalos African-American, Hispanic and female failure to hire into service sales representative positions claims and the EEOC’s intervention were consolidated for pretrial purposes with the Serrano case and transferred to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division. The consolidated case was known as Mirna E. Serrano/Blanca Nelly Avalos, et al. v. Cintas Corporation (Serrano/Avalos). On March 31, 2009, the United States District Court, Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division entered an order denying class certification to all plaintiffs in the Serrano/Avalos lawsuits. Following denial of class certification, the Court permitted the individual Avalos and Serrano plaintiffs to proceed separately. In the Avalos case, the Court dismissed the remaining claims of the individual plaintiffs who remained in that case after the denial of class certification. On May 11, 2010, Plaintiff Tanesha Davis, on behalf of all similarly situated plaintiffs in the Avalos case, filed a notice of appeal of the District Court’s summary judgment order in the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. The Appellate Court has made no determination regarding the merits of Davis’ appeal. In September 2010, the Court in Serrano dismissed all private individual claims and all claims of the EEOC and the 13 individuals it claimed to represent. The EEOC has appealed the District Court’s summary judgment decisions and various other rulings to the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. The Court of Appeals has not yet ruled on the EEOC’s appeal.

The litigation discussed above, if decided or settled adversely to Cintas, may, individually or in the aggregate, result in liability material to Cintas’ consolidated financial condition or consolidated results of operation and could increase costs of operations on an ongoing basis. Any estimated liability relating to these proceedings is not determinable at this time. Cintas may enter into discussions regarding settlement of these and other lawsuits, and may enter into settlement agreements if it believes such settlement is in the best interest of Cintas’ shareholders.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

Cintas provides highly specialized products and services to businesses of all types primarily throughout North America, as well as Latin America, Europe and Asia. We bring value to our customers by helping them provide a cleaner, safer and more pleasant atmosphere for their customers and employees. Our products and services are designed to improve our customers’ images. We also help our customers protect their employees and their company by enhancing workplace safety and helping to ensure legal compliance in key areas of their business.

We are North America’s leading provider of corporate identity uniforms through rental and sales programs, as well as a significant provider of related business services, including entrance mats, restroom cleaning services and supplies, carpet and tile cleaning services, first aid, safety and fire protection products and services, document management services and branded promotional products.

Cintas’ principal objective is “to exceed customers’ expectations in order to maximize the long-term value of Cintas for shareholders and working partners,” and it provides the framework and focus for Cintas’ business strategy. This strategy is to achieve revenue growth for all of our products and services by increasing our penetration at existing customers and by broadening our customer base to include business segments that we have not historically served. We will also continue to identify additional product and service opportunities for our current and future customers.

To pursue the strategy of increasing penetration, we have a highly talented and diverse team of service professionals visiting our customers on a regular basis. This frequent contact with our customers enables us to develop close personal relationships. The combination of our distribution system and these strong customer relationships provides a platform from which we launch additional products and services.

We pursue the strategy of broadening our customer base in several ways. Cintas has a national sales organization introducing all of its products and services to prospects in all business segments. Our broad range of products and services allows our sales organization to consider any type of business a prospect. We also broaden our customer base through geographic expansion, especially in our emerging businesses of first aid and safety, fire protection and document management. Finally, we evaluate strategic acquisitions as opportunities arise.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Cintas classifies its businesses into four operating segments based on the types of products and services provided. The Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products operating segment consists of the rental and servicing of uniforms and other garments including flame resistant clothing, mats, mops and shop towels and other ancillary items. In addition to these rental items, restroom cleaning services and supplies and carpet and tile cleaning services are also provided within this operating segment. The Uniform Direct Sales operating segment consists of the direct sale of uniforms and related items and branded promotional products. The First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services operating segment consists of first aid, safety and fire protection products and services. The Document Management Services operating segment consists of document destruction, document imaging and document retention services. Revenue and income before income taxes for each of these operating segments for the three and nine months ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, are presented in Note 10 entitled Segment Information of “Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.”

Consolidated Results

Three Months Ended February 29, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended February 28, 2011

Total revenue increased 7.9% for the three months ended February 29, 2012, over the same period in the prior fiscal year from $937.8 million to $1,012.1 million. The increase primarily resulted from an organic growth increase (excludes the impact of acquisitions) in revenue of 5.9%. Revenue was also positively impacted by 1.6% due to one more workday in the three months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the three months ended February 28, 2011. The remaining 0.4% increase represents growth derived through acquisitions in our Document Management Services operating segment, our First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services operating segment and our Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products operating segment.

Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products operating segment revenue increased 8.4% for the three months ended February 29, 2012, over the same period in the prior fiscal year from $665.0 million to $721.0 million. The increase primarily resulted from an organic growth increase in revenue of 6.5%. Revenue was also positively impacted by 1.7% due to one more workday in the three months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the three months ended February 28, 2011. The remaining 0.2% increase represents growth derived through acquisitions in our Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products operating segment.

Other Services revenue, consisting of revenue from the reportable operating segments of Uniform Direct Sales, First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services and Document Management Services, increased 6.7% for the three months ended February 29, 2012, over the same period in the prior fiscal year from $272.9 million to $291.1 million. The increase primarily resulted from an organic growth increase in revenue of 4.4%. Revenue was also positively impacted by 1.7% due to one more workday in the three months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the three months ended February 28, 2011. The remaining 0.6% increase represents growth derived through acquisitions in our Document Management Services operating segment and our First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services operating segment. The positive organic growth for Other Services revenue for the quarter was primarily the result of a 9.1% increase in First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services operating segment revenue and a 4.7% increase in Uniform Direct Sales operating segment revenue. This organic increase was partially offset by an organic decrease of 1.3% in Document Management Services operating segment revenue.

Cost of rental uniforms and ancillary products consists primarily of production expenses, delivery expenses and the amortization of in service inventory, including uniforms, mats, shop towels and other ancillary items. Cost of rental uniforms and ancillary products increased $29.7 million, or 7.8%, for the three months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the three months ended February 28, 2011. This increase was due to higher Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products operating segment sales volume.

Cost of other services consists primarily of cost of goods sold (predominantly uniforms and first aid products), delivery expenses and distribution expenses in the Uniform Direct Sales operating segment, the First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services operating segment and the Document Management Services operating segment. Cost of other services increased $10.6 million, or 6.4%, for the three months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the three months ended February 28, 2011. This increase was primarily due to increased Other Services sales volume.

Selling and administrative expenses increased $5.3 million, or 1.9%, for the three months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the three months ended February 28, 2011, due to increases in labor and other employee-partner related expenses. However, selling and administrative expenses as a percent of revenue, at 28.5%, decreased 170 basis points compared to the third quarter of the prior fiscal year due to improvements in sales representative productivity and revenue increasing at a faster rate of 7.9% compared to a 1.9% increase in selling and administrative expenses.

Net interest expense (interest expense less interest income) was $16.8 million for the three months ended February 29, 2012, compared to $12.2 million for the three months ended February 28, 2011. This increase was due to the increased interest cost associated with the issuance of $500 million of senior notes in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011.

Cintas’ effective tax rate decreased to 37.0% for the three months ended February 29, 2012, compared to 38.9% for the three months ended February 28, 2011. The effective tax rate can fluctuate from quarter to quarter based on tax reserve builds and releases relating to specific discrete items.

Net income increased $17.0 million, or 28.7%, for the three months ended February 29, 2012, from the same period in the prior fiscal year. This increase was primarily due to revenue increasing at a faster rate of 7.9% compared to a 5.5% increase in operating expenses. Revenue grew at a faster rate primarily due to improvements in sales representative productivity and cost control initiatives. Diluted earnings per share were $0.58 for the three months ended February 29, 2012, which was an increase of 41.5% compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase in diluted earnings per share is higher than the increase in net income due to a decrease in weighted average common stock outstanding as a result of purchasing 15.8 million shares of common stock under the October 26, 2010 share buyback program during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 and the first quarter of fiscal 2012.

Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products Operating Segment

Three Months Ended February 29, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended February 28, 2011

As discussed above, Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products operating segment revenue increased from $665.0 million to $721.0 million, or 8.4%, and the cost of rental uniforms and ancillary products increased $29.7 million, or 7.8%. The operating segment’s gross margin was $311.1 million, or 43.1% of revenue. This gross margin percent of revenue of 43.1% was 30 basis points higher than the prior fiscal year’s third quarter of 42.8%. This increase is primarily due to a decrease in energy related costs, which include natural gas, electric and gas, of approximately 20 basis points, from the prior fiscal year’s third quarter.

Selling and administrative expenses as a percent of revenue, at 27.5%, decreased 250 basis points or $0.6 million compared to the third quarter of the prior fiscal year. Medical costs are 30 basis points lower for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to the same quarter last fiscal year. The remaining decrease is due to revenue growing at a faster rate than selling and administrative expenses due to improvements in sales representative productivity and cost control initiatives.

Income before income taxes increased $26.9 million to $112.5 million for the Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products operating segment for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to the same quarter last fiscal year. Income before income taxes was 15.6% of the operating segment’s revenue, which is a 270 basis point increase compared to the third quarter of the prior fiscal year. This improvement is primarily due to revenue increasing at a faster rate of 8.4% compared to a 5.0% increase in operating expenses. Revenue grew at a faster rate due primarily to improvements in sales representative productivity and cost control initiatives.

Uniform Direct Sales Operating Segment

Three Months Ended February 29, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended February 28, 2011

Uniform Direct Sales operating segment revenue increased from $102.6 million to $109.1 million, or 6.4%, for the three months ended February 29, 2012, over the same quarter in the prior fiscal year. The increase primarily resulted from an organic growth increase in revenue of 4.7% due to increased customer orders for uniforms. Revenue was also positively impacted by 1.7% due to one more workday in the three months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the three months ended February 28, 2011.

Cost of uniform direct sales increased $3.5 million, or 4.9%, for the three months ended February 29, 2012, over the same quarter in the prior fiscal year due to increased Uniform Direct Sales operating segment sales volume. The gross margin as a percent of revenue was 30.5% for the three months ended February 29, 2012, which is a 100 basis point increase compared to the gross margin percentage of 29.5% in the same quarter of the prior fiscal year. This increase is due to an increase in revenue for the reasons noted above and improved capacity utilization from the higher revenue volume.

28

Table of Contents

Selling and administrative expenses as a percent of revenue, at 17.2%, decreased 20 basis points or $0.9 million for the three months ended February 29, 2012. This decrease is mainly due to lower medical costs for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year.

Income before income taxes increased $2.1 million for the Uniform Direct Sales operating segment for the third quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to the same quarter last fiscal year. Income before income taxes was 13.3% of the operating segment’s revenue, which is a 120 basis point increase compared to the same quarter last fiscal year. This increase in income before income taxes is primarily due to revenue increasing at a greater rate than cost of uniform direct sales based on the factors noted above.

First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services Operating Segment

Three Months Ended February 29, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended February 28, 2011

First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services operating segment revenue increased from $91.2 million to $101.4 million, or 11.2%, for the three months ended February 29, 2012. The increase primarily resulted from an organic growth increase in revenue of 9.1% due to improvements in sales representative productivity and improved customer retention. Revenue was also positively impacted by 1.7% due to one more workday in the three months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the three months ended February 28, 2011. The remaining 0.4% increase represents growth through acquisitions.

Cost of first aid, safety and fire protection services increased $4.3 million, or 8.1%, for the three months ended February 29, 2012, over the same quarter in the prior fiscal year. Gross margin for the First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services operating segment is defined as revenue less cost of goods, warehouse expenses, service expenses and training expenses. The gross margin as a percent of revenue was 43.2% for the quarter ended February 29, 2012, which is a 170 basis point increase compared to the gross margin percentage of 41.5% in the third quarter of the prior fiscal year. This increase is due to an increase in revenue for the reasons noted above and improved capacity utilization from the higher revenue levels.

Selling and administrative expenses increased $2.8 million compared to the third quarter of the prior fiscal year, primarily due to an increase in labor and other employee-partner related expenses. However, selling and administrative expenses as a percent of revenue, at 35.5%, decreased 100 basis points compared to the third quarter of the prior fiscal year. Revenue grew at a faster rate than selling and administrative expenses due to improvements in sales representative productivity and cost control initiatives.

Income before income taxes for the First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services operating segment increased $3.1 million to $7.7 million for the three months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year. Income before income taxes was 7.6% of the operating segment’s revenue, compared to 5.1% in last fiscal year’s third quarter. This increase is primarily due to the increase in revenue and improved capacity utilization from the higher revenue levels.

Document Management Services Operating Segment

Three Months Ended February 29, 2012 Compared to Three Months Ended February 28, 2011

Document Management Services operating segment revenue increased from $79.1 million to $80.6 million, or 2.0%, for the quarter ended February 29, 2012, over the same quarter in the prior fiscal year. Revenue was positively impacted by 1.6% due to one more workday in the three months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the three months ended February 28, 2011. This increase was partially offset by an organic decrease of 1.3%. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in recycled paper revenue. Acquisitions accounted for revenue growth of 1.7%. The rate of growth in this operating segment decelerated during the quarter ended February 29, 2012, compared to the quarter ended February 28, 2011, due to a steep decline in recycled paper prices. This operating segment derives a portion of its revenue from the sale of shredded paper to paper recyclers. The average price of recycled paper for the

29

Table of Contents

third quarter of fiscal 2012 was approximately 30% below the average for the third quarter of the prior fiscal year and approximately 47% below the average for the first quarter ended August 31, 2011.

Cost of document management services increased $2.7 million, or 6.9%, for the three months ended February 29, 2012, due to increased Document Management Services operating segment volume. Gross margin for the Document Management Services operating segment is defined as revenue less production and service costs. The gross margin as a percent of revenue was 47.0% for the three months ended February 29, 2012, which is a 240 basis point decrease compared to the gross margin percentage of 49.4% in the third quarter of the prior fiscal year. This decrease is due to the lower recycled paper prices, partially offset by better capacity utilization from higher service volumes.

Selling and administrative expenses increased $2.3 million compared to the same quarter in the prior fiscal year primarily due to an increase in labor and other employee-partner related expenses. These expenses as a percent of revenue were 43.4%, an increase of 200 basis points compared to the third quarter of the prior fiscal year. This increase is due to revenue growing at a slower rate than expenses due to lower recycled paper prices.

Income before income taxes for the Document Management Services operating segment decreased $3.4 million to $2.9 million for the three months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Income before income taxes as a percentage of the operating segment’s revenue decreased from 8.0% in last year’s third quarter to 3.5% for the quarter ended February 29, 2012, primarily as a result of the lower recycled paper prices.

Total revenue increased 8.9% for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, over the same period in the prior fiscal year from $2.8 billion to $3.0 billion.

Revenue was also positively impacted by 0.6% due to one more workday in the nine months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the nine months ended February 28, 2011. The remaining 1.5% increase represents growth derived through acquisitions in our Document Management Services operating segment, our First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services operating segment and our Uniform Rentals and Ancillary Products operating segment during the period.

Cost of other services increased $37.2 million, or 7.6%, for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the nine months ended February 28, 2011.

Selling and administrative expenses increased $31.2 million, or 3.6%, for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the nine months ended February 28, 2011, due to increases in labor and other employee-partner related expenses. However, selling and administrative expenses as a percent of revenue, at 29.4%, decreased 150 basis points compared to the first nine months of the prior fiscal year due to improvements in sales representative productivity and cost control initiatives.

Net interest expense (interest expense less interest income) was $51.1 million for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, compared to $35.7 million for the nine months ended February 28, 2011. This increase was due to the increased interest cost associated with the issuance of $500 million of senior notes in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011.

Cintas’ effective tax rate increased to 37.0% for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, compared to 36.1% for the prior year period. The lower rate during the prior fiscal year period was due to the impact of the closure of certain tax audits during the nine months ended February 28, 2011.

Net income increased $42.8 million, or 24.3%, for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, from the same period in the prior fiscal year. This increase was primarily due to revenue increasing at a faster rate of 8.9% compared to a 6.5% increase in operating expenses. Revenue grew at a faster rate primarily due to improvements in sales representative productivity. Diluted earnings per share were $1.67 for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, which was an increase of 40.3% compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase in diluted earnings per share is higher than the increase in net income due to a decrease in weighted average common stock outstanding as a result of purchasing 15.8 million shares of common stock under the October 26, 2010 share buyback program during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 and the first quarter of fiscal 2012.

Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products Operating Segment

Nine Months Ended February 29, 2012 Compared to Nine Months Ended February 28, 2011

As discussed above, Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products operating segment revenue increased from $2.0 billion to $2.2 billion, or 9.2%, and the cost of rental uniforms and ancillary products increased $94.4 million, or 8.4%. The operating segment’s gross margin was $939.6 million, or 43.4% of revenue. This gross margin percent of revenue of 43.4% was 40 basis points higher than the prior fiscal year’s 43.0%. This increase is due to an increase in revenue as a result of improvements in sales representative productivity and improved capacity utilization.

Selling and administrative expenses as a percent of revenue, at 28.8%, decreased 200 basis points compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year. This decrease is primarily due to cost control initiatives and higher Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products operating segment revenue from greater sales representative productivity during the nine months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the nine months ended February 28, 2011.

Income before income taxes increased $74.5 million to $316.4 million for the Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products operating segment compared to the same period last fiscal year. Income before income taxes was 14.6% of the operating segment’s revenue, which is a 240 basis point increase compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year. This improvement is primarily due to revenue increasing at a faster rate of 9.2% compared to a 6.2% increase in operating expenses. Revenue grew at a faster rate due primarily to improvements in sales representative productivity and cost control initiatives.

Uniform Direct Sales Operating Segment

Nine Months Ended February 29, 2012 Compared to Nine Months Ended February 28, 2011

Uniform Direct Sales operating segment revenue increased from $310.2 million to $322.8 million, or 4.1%, for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, over the same period in the prior fiscal year due to increased customer orders for uniforms. Revenue was positively impacted by 0.6% due to one more workday in the nine months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the nine months ended February 28, 2011.

Cost of uniform direct sales increased $9.9 million, or 4.5%, for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, over the same period in the prior fiscal year due to increased Uniform Direct Sales volume. The gross margin as a percent of revenue was 29.6% for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, which is a 30 basis point decrease compared to the gross margin percentage of 29.9% in the same period of the prior fiscal year. This decrease was due to increased garment material costs due to higher cotton prices, higher freight costs on shipments from our distribution centers and higher energy related costs associated with our rental catalog service.

Selling and administrative expenses increased $2.1 million for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the nine months ended February 28, 2011. However, selling and administrative expenses remained consistent as a percent of revenue at 18.4% for the nine months ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011.

Income before income taxes increased $0.6 million to $36.1 million for the Uniform Direct Sales operating segment for the nine months ended February 29, 2012. Income before income taxes was 11.2% of the operating segment’s revenue compared to 11.4% for the same period last fiscal year. This decrease is primarily due to cost of uniform direct sales increasing at a greater rate than revenue based on the factors noted above.

First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services Operating Segment

Nine Months Ended February 29, 2012 Compared to Nine Months Ended February 28, 2011

First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services operating segment revenue increased from $278.0 million to $306.8 million, or 10.3%, for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, over the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase primarily resulted from an organic growth increase of 8.2% due to improvements in sales representative productivity and improved customer retention. Revenue was also positively impacted by 0.6% due to one more workday in the nine months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the nine months ended February 28, 2011. The remaining 1.5% increase represents growth derived mainly through acquisitions.

Cost of first aid, safety and fire protection services increased $10.9 million, or 6.7%, for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, over the same period in the prior fiscal year. Gross margin for the First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services operating segment is defined as revenue less cost of goods, warehouse expenses, service expenses and training expenses. The gross margin as a percent of revenue was 43.1% for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, which is a 190 basis point increase compared to the gross margin percentage of 41.2% for the nine months ended February 28, 2011. This increase is due to an increase in revenue for the reasons noted above and improved capacity utilization from the higher revenue levels.

Selling and administrative expenses increased $6.3 million for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the nine months ended February 28, 2011, primarily due to an increase in labor and other employee-partner related expenses. However, selling and administrative expenses as a percent of revenue, at 35.0%, decreased 130 basis points compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year. Revenue grew at a faster rate than selling and administrative expenses due to improvements in sales representative productivity and cost control initiatives.

Income before income taxes for the First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services operating segment increased $11.6 million to $25.1 million for the nine months ended February 29, 2012. Income before income taxes was 8.2% of the operating segment’s revenue, compared to 4.9% for the nine months ended February 28, 2011. This increase is primarily due to the increase in revenue and improved capacity utilization from the higher revenue levels.

Document Management Services Operating Segment

Nine Months Ended February 29, 2012 Compared to Nine Months Ended February 28, 2011

Document Management Services operating segment revenue increased from $229.7 million to $255.6 million, or 11.3%, for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, over the same period in the prior fiscal year. The increase primarily resulted from an organic growth increase of 6.2%. Revenue was also positively impacted by 0.6% due to one more workday in the nine months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the nine months ended February 28, 2011. The remaining 4.5% increase represents growth derived mainly through acquisitions. This operating segment derives a portion of its revenue from the sale of shredded paper to paper recyclers. The average price from these paper sales increased by approximately 22% in the nine months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the nine months ended February 28, 2011, due to increased volume and increases in recycled paper prices. This increase resulted in higher recycled paper revenue.

Cost of document management services increased $16.5 million, or 14.7%, for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, over the same period in the prior fiscal year due to increased Document Management Services operating segment volume. Gross margin for the Document Management Services operating segment is defined as revenue less production and service costs. The gross margin as a percent of revenue decreased from 51.3% for the nine months ended February 28, 2011, to 49.8% for the nine months ended February 29, 2012. This decrease is due to an increase in energy related costs of 90 basis points for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, over the same period in the prior fiscal year and the effect of the difficult European economic environment on our European operations.

Selling and administrative expenses increased $8.8 million compared to the nine months ended February 28, 2011, primarily due to an increase in labor and other employee-partner related expenses. However, these expenses as a percent of revenue, at 41.5%, decreased 90 basis points compared to the nine months ended February 28, 2011. This decrease is due to the revenue growing at a faster rate than the expenses due to cost control initiatives, lower bad debt expense and lower amortization expense related to acquisition related intangible assets.

Income before income taxes for the Document Management Services operating segment increased $0.7 million to $21.2 million for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, compared to the same period in the prior fiscal year. Income before income taxes as a percentage of the operating segment’s revenue decreased from 8.9% for the nine months ended February 28, 2011, to 8.3% for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, primarily as a result of the increase in the cost of document management services and selling and administrative expenses, as discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following is a summary of our cash flows and cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of and for the nine months ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011:

(In thousands) |  | 2012 | 2011 |
Net cash provided by operating activities |  |  | $ | 307,714 |  |  | $ | 207,955 |  |

The cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities as of February 29, 2012, include $171.8 million that is located outside of the United States. We expect to use these amounts to fund our international operations and international expansion activities. However, Cintas may consider repatriating if the operating or international opportunities change. The marketable securities at February 29, 2012, consist of Canadian treasury securities. We believe that our investment policy pertaining to marketable securities is conservative. The criterion used in making investment decisions is the preservation of principal.

Cash flows provided by operating activities have historically supplied us with a significant source of liquidity. We generally use these cash flows to fund most, if not all, of our operations and expansion activities and dividends on our common stock. We may also use cash flows provided by operating activities, as well as proceeds from long-term debt and short-term borrowings, to fund growth and expansion opportunities, as well as other cash requirements such as common stock buybacks.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $307.7 million for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, an increase of $99.8 million compared to the same period last fiscal year. In addition to net income being higher, the decrease in inventory during the third quarter of fiscal 2012 also had a positive impact on cash flows.

Net cash used in investing activities includes capital expenditures and cash paid for acquisitions of businesses. Capital expenditures were $117.7 million and $142.3 million for the nine months ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, respectively. These capital expenditures primarily relate to expansion efforts in Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products and Document Management Services operating segments and to our enterprise-wide system conversion. Capital expenditures for the nine months ended February 29, 2012, included $76.0 million for the Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products operating segment and $25.6 million for the Document Management Services operating segment. Cash paid for acquisitions of businesses was $20.9 million and $158.5 million for the nine months ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, respectively. The acquisitions this fiscal year occurred in our Document Management Services operating segment, our First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services operating segment and our Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products operating segment.

Net cash used in financing activities was $333.0 million and $252.1 million for the nine months ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, respectively. We completed the May 2, 2005 share buyback program by purchasing 7.7 million shares of Cintas common stock for a total of $202.1 million of Cintas common stock by the end of September 30, 2010. On October 26, 2010, we announced that the Board of Directors authorized an additional $500.0 million share buyback program at market prices. Beginning in April 2011, under the October 26, 2010 share buyback program, we purchased 7.7 million shares of Cintas common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $240.5 million, which resulted in a total of $442.5 million of Cintas common stock being repurchased through May 31, 2011. We completed the October 26, 2010 share buyback program by purchasing an additional 8.1 million shares of Cintas common stock in June and July 2011 for an aggregate purchase price of $259.5 million. From the inception of the October 26, 2010 share buyback program through July 29, 2011, Cintas purchased a total of 15.8 million shares of Cintas common stock at an average price of $31.70 per share for a total purchase price of $500.0 million. On October 18, 2011, we announced that the Board of Directors authorized a new $500.0 million share buyback program at market prices. This new share buyback program does not have an expiration date, and purchases will be made at the discretion of the Board of Directors. For the nine months ended February 29, 2012, Cintas acquired approximately 97,900 shares of Cintas common stock for employee payroll taxes due on restricted stock awards that vested during the nine months ended February 29, 2012. These shares were acquired at an average price of $31.99 per share for a total purchase price of approximately $3.1 million.

As of February 29, 2012, we had $1,275.0 million in fixed rate senior notes outstanding with maturities ranging from 2012 to 2036. We intend to repay the $225 million senior notes maturing in June 2012 with a combination of cash on hand and short-term borrowings under our commercial paper program. However, should long-term borrowing rates remain at attractive low levels; we may re-evaluate and decide to issue new long-term debt to refinance the maturing senior notes.

Cintas’ commercial paper program has a capacity of $300.0 million that is fully supported by a backup revolving credit facility through a credit agreement with its banking group. This revolving credit facility has an accordion feature that allows for a maximum borrowing capacity of $450.0 million. The revolving credit

facility was amended on October 7, 2011, to extend the maturity date from September 26, 2014 to October 6, 2016, to improve the applicable margin used to calculate the interest rate payable on any outstanding loans and the facility fee payable under the agreement and to replace the financial covenant regarding Cintas’ net funded indebtedness to total capitalization with a requirement to maintain a leverage ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (debt to EBITDA) of no more than 3.5 to 1.0. We believe this program, along with cash generated from operations, will be adequate to provide necessary funding for our future cash requirements. No commercial paper or borrowings under our revolving credit facility were outstanding as of February 29, 2012 or May 31, 2011.

Cintas has certain covenants related to debt agreements. These covenants limit our ability to incur certain liens, to engage in sale-leaseback transactions and to merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of our assets. These covenants also require Cintas to maintain certain debt to EBITDA and interest coverage ratios. Cross-default provisions exist between certain debt instruments. If a default of a significant covenant were to occur, the default could result in an acceleration of the maturity of the indebtedness, impair liquidity and limit the ability to raise future capital. As of February 29, 2012, Cintas was in compliance with all significant debt covenants.

Our access to the commercial paper and long-term debt markets has historically provided us with sources of liquidity. We do not anticipate having difficulty in obtaining financing from those markets in the future in view of our favorable experiences in the debt markets in the recent past. Our ability to continue to access the commercial paper and long-term debt markets on favorable interest rate and other terms will depend, to a significant degree, on the ratings assigned by the credit rating agencies to our indebtedness. As of February 29, 2012, our ratings were as follows:

Rating Agency |  | Outlook |  | Commercial Paper |  | Long-term Debt
Standard & Poor’s |  | Stable |  | A-2 |  | BBB+
Moody’s Investors Service |  | Stable |  | P-1 |  | A2

In the event that the ratings of our commercial paper or our outstanding long-term debt issues were substantially lowered or withdrawn for any reason, or if the ratings assigned to any new issue of long-term debt securities were significantly lower than those noted above, particularly if we no longer had investment grade ratings, our ability to access the debt markets may be adversely affected. In addition, in such a case, our cost of funds for new issues of commercial paper and long-term debt would be higher than our cost of funds would have been had the ratings of those new issues been at or above the level of the ratings noted above. The rating agency ratings are not recommendations to buy, sell or hold our commercial paper or debt securities. Each rating may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating organization and should be evaluated independently of any other rating. Moreover, each credit rating is specific to the security to which it applies.

To monitor our credit rating and our capacity for long-term financing, we consider various qualitative and quantitative factors. One such factor is the ratio of our debt to EBITDA. For the purpose of this calculation, debt is defined as the sum of short-term borrowings, long-term debt due within one year, obligations under capital leases due in one year, long-term debt and long-term obligations under capital leases. At February 29, 2012 and May 31, 2011, the ratio of our debt to EBITDA was 1.9 to 1.0 and 2.1 to 1.0, respectively. We believe these levels are reasonable and allow for additional funding if the need arises.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2011, the FASB issued new guidance on the presentation of other comprehensive income. The new guidance eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity and requires an entity to present either one continuous statement of net income and other comprehensive income or two separate, but consecutive, statements. This new guidance is effective for Cintas for the first quarter of the fiscal year ending May 31, 2013, and is to be applied retrospectively. Cintas does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

In September 2011, the FASB issued new guidance with respect to the annual goodwill impairment test, which adds a qualitative assessment that allows companies to determine whether they need to perform the two-step impairment test. The objective of the guidance is to simplify how companies test goodwill for impairment and, more specifically, to reduce the cost and complexity of performing the goodwill impairment test. The guidance may change how the goodwill impairment test is performed, but should not change the timing or measurement of goodwill impairments. The qualitative screen is effective for companies with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted for all companies. Cintas will consider the new guidance in performing its annual goodwill impairment test when appropriate.

Litigation and Other Contingencies

Cintas is subject to legal proceedings and claims arising from the ordinary course of its business, including personal injury, customer contract, environmental and employment claims. In the opinion of management, the aggregate liability, if any, with respect to such ordinary course of business actions will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operation of Cintas. Cintas is party to additional litigation not considered in the ordinary course of business. Please refer to Note 9 entitled Litigation and Other Contingencies of “Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements” for a detailed discussion of certain specific litigation.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

In our normal operations, Cintas has market risk exposure to interest rates. There has been no material change to this market risk exposure to interest rates from that which was previously disclosed on page 29 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended May 31, 2011.

Through its foreign operations, Cintas is exposed to foreign currency risk. Foreign currency exposures arise from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency and from foreign currency denominated revenue and profit translated into U.S. dollars. The primary foreign currency to which Cintas is exposed is the Canadian dollar. Cintas has average rate options in place to limit a portion of the risks of the revenue translation from Canadian foreign currency exchange rate movements during the remainder of the fiscal year; however, the amount of these options is not significant.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
