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, 2023 (Annual Report) filed with the SEC on July 27, 2023. See Note 1 entitled Significant Accounting Policies of "Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements" of that Annual Report for a summary of our significant accounting policies. 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 at:
(In thousands) | August 31, 2023 |  | May 31, 2023
Raw materials | $ | 23,199 |  |  | $ | 27,878 |
Work in process | 49,017 |  |  | 56,384 |
Finished goods | 426,138 |  |  | 422,342 |
Inventories, net | $ | 498,354 |  |  | $ | 506,604 |
Inventories are recorded net of reserves for obsolete inventory (excess and slow-moving) of $74.1 million and $80.1 million at August 31, 2023 and May 31, 2023, 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. New Accounting Pronouncements There are no new accounting pronouncements recently issued or newly effective that had, or are expected to have, a material impact on Cintas' consolidated condensed financial statements.
