CINTAS CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (In thousands except per share data) 1. The consolidated condensed financial statements of Cintas Corporation included herein have been prepared by Cintas, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles 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 financial statements and notes included in our most recent annual report for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1999. A summary of our significant accounting policies is presented on page 27 of our most recent annual report. There have been no material changes in the accounting policies followed by Cintas during fiscal year 2000. Certain fiscal 1999 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the fiscal 2000 presentation. 2. 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 results of the interim periods shown have been made. 3. In March 1999, Cintas acquired Unitog Company, a rental and direct sale uniform provider. The acquisition was accounted for using the pooling of interests method of accounting. At that time, the accompanying consolidated financial statements were restated to include the financial position and operating results of Unitog for all periods. 4. The following table represents a reconciliation of the shares used to calculate basic and diluted earnings per share for the respective years: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended November 30, November 30 -------------------- ------------------ 1999 1998 1999 1998 --------- -------- ------- -------- Numerator: Net income $ 48,335 $ 44,378 $ 91,500 $ 80,629 Denominator: Denominator for basic earnings per share-weighted avg. shares 111,265 110,358 111,132 110,402 ======== ======== ======= ======== Effect of dilutive securities- employee stock options 1,956 2,214 2,052 2,492 ======== ======== ======= ======== Denominator for diluted earnings per share-adjusted weighted avg. shares and assumed conversions 113,221 112,572 113,184 112,894 ======== ======== ======= ======== CINTAS CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (In thousands except per share data) Three Months Ended Six Months Ended November 30 November 30 ------------------ ------------------- 1999 1998 1999 1998 ------- -------- -------- --------- Basic earnings per share $ .43 $ .40 $ .82 $ .73 ======== ========= ========= ====== Diluted earnings per share $ .43 $ .39 $ .81 $ .71 ======== ========= ========= ====== 5.

Cintas classifies its businesses into two operating segments: Rentals and Other Services. The Rental operating segment designs and manufactures corporate identity uniforms which it rents, along with other items, to its customers. The Other Services operating segment involves the design, manufacture and direct sale of uniforms to its customers as well as the sale of ancillary services including sanitation supplies, first aid products and services and cleanroom supplies. All of these services are provided throughout the United States and Canada to businesses of all types - from small service and manufacturing companies to major corporations that employ thousands of people. Information as to the operations of our different business segments is set forth based on the distribution of products and services offered. Cintas evaluates performance based on several factors of which the primary financial measures are business segment revenue and income before income taxes.

Net rental revenue increased 9% for the three and six months ended November 30, over the same periods in the prior fiscal year, due primarily to growth in the customer base. This revenue growth came despite the disposition of linen volume occurring from September 1998 through November 1999 and the high rate of lost business occurring at Unitog operations prior to the merger. For the six months ended November 30, 1999 revenues from other services increased 2% over the same period in fiscal 1999, principally as a result of the increased sales of first aid supplies. Net income increased 9% and 14% respectively, for the three and six months ended November 30, over the same periods in fiscal 1999. This increase in net income occurred even though income was recognized in the second quarter of fiscal 1999 by Unitog as a result of a $2.1 million pre-tax gain on the sale of certain linen facilities and a $2.0 million breach of contract settlement with a former customer. Diluted earnings per share increased 10% and 14%, respectively, for the three and six months ended November 30 over the same periods in fiscal 1999. Net interest expense (interest expense less interest income) was $2,822,000 and $5,801,000, respectively, for the three and six months ended November 30 compared to $3,255,000 and $6,399,000, respectively, for the same periods in the prior fiscal year. Net interest expense has decreased primarily due to the repayment of long-term debt. Cintas' effective tax rate was approximately 38% in both periods of fiscal 2000 as well as fiscal 1999. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities increased by $6 million at November 30, 1999 from May 31, 1999 primarily due to strong cash flow from operations. These sources will be used to finance future acquisitions and capital expenditures. Net property, plant and equipment increased by $42 million from May 31, 1999 to November 30, 1999. At the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2000, we had nine uniform rental facilities in various stages of construction. The integration of Unitog facilities and corporate functions are progressing as planned. Activity in the second quarter of fiscal 2000 related to the Special Charge accrual established in fiscal 1999 for the Unitog integration amounted to $2.9 million, primarily related to severance payments. The remaining balance at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2000 is $2.0 million. Financial Condition At November 30, 1999, we had $94 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. We believe that our current cash position, funds anticipated to be generated from operations and the strength of our banking relationships are sufficient to meet our anticipated operational and capital needs requirements. CINTAS CORPORATION MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk In its normal operations, we have market risk exposure to interest rates. There has been no significant change in our exposure to these risks which has been previously disclosed. Impact of Year 2000 We have completed the changes required to ensure that all of our software, hardware and operating equipment will function properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and thereafter. The total cost of these changes was not material and has been expensed as incurred. We incurred the majority of our Year 2000 costs during fiscal 1998, with substantially all of the remaining costs expensed in fiscal 1999. As of the date of this filing, our ability to manufacture and distribute products and services has not been adversely affected by Year 2000 issues. Forward-Looking Statements The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbor from civil litigation for forward-looking statements. This report contains forward-looking statements that reflect our views as to future performance. These statements are based on our expectations concerning future events which involve a number of risks and uncertainties such as the performance and costs of integration of acquisitions, fluctuations in costs of materials and labor, the outcome of pending environmental matters and Year 2000 issues.
