For the three months ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, 1.1 million and 3.5 million options granted to purchase shares of Cintas common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share, respectively. For the nine months ended February 29, 2012 and February 28, 2011, 2.1 million and 3.6 million options granted to purchase shares of Cintas common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share, respectively. The exercise prices of these options were greater than the average market price of the common stock (anti-dilutive).

 

On October 26, 2010, we announced that the Board of Directors authorized an additional $500.0 million share buyback program at market prices.  We completed the October 26, 2010 share buyback program by purchasing 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 aggregate 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.
