Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] |
Basis of Presentation | 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 consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. While we believe that the disclosures are adequately presented, we suggest 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, 2021. A summary of our significant accounting policies is presented beginning on page 40 of that report. There have been no material changes in the accounting policies followed by Cintas during the current fiscal year. 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. Inventories, net are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value. Inventory is comprised of the following:
(In thousands) | November 30, 2021 |  | May 31, 2021
Raw materials | $ | 16,385 |  |  | $ | 15,109 |
Work in process | 35,328 |  |  | 37,664 |
Finished goods | 413,151 |  |  | 429,024 |
| $ | 464,864 |  |  | $ | 481,797 |
Inventories are recorded net of reserves for obsolete inventory (excess and slow-moving) of $106.6 million and $111.0 million at November 30, 2021 and May 31, 2021, respectively. The inventory obsolescence reserve is determined by specific identification, as well as an estimate based on Cintas' historical rates of obsolescence. Once a specific inventory item is written down to the lower of cost or net realizable value, a new cost basis has been established, and that inventory item cannot subsequently be marked up. Reclassification of Prior Year Presentation Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current year presentation. The reclassification has been reflected in the consolidated condensed balance sheet and consolidated condensed statement of shareholders' equity for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2021 and the three and six months ended November 30, 2020, to combine common stock and paid-in capital for presentation purposes. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company's reported results of operations. New Accounting Pronouncements In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. ASU 2019-12 is part of the FASB’s overall simplification initiative to reduce costs and complexity of applying accounting standards while maintaining or improving the usefulness of the information provided to users of financial statements. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740, Income Taxes (ASC 740), in order to reduce the cost and complexity of its application in the areas of intraperiod tax allocation, deferred tax liabilities related to outside basis differences, year-to-date losses in interim periods and other areas within ASC 740. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 on June 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU 2019-12 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated condensed financial statements currently but may in future periods. No other new accounting pronouncement recently issued or newly effective had, or is expected to have, a material impact on Cintas' consolidated condensed financial statements.
