CINTAS CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (In thousands except per share data) 1. The consolidated condensed financial statements of Cintas Corporation (the "Company") included herein have been prepared by the Company, 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 the Company believes that the disclosures presented are adequate to make the information not misleading, it is suggested that these consolidated condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Company's most recent annual report for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1998. A summary of the Company's significant accounting policies is presented on page 21 of the Company's most recent annual report. There have been no material changes in the accounting policies followed by the Company during fiscal year 1999. 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 April 1998, the Company acquired Uniforms To You (UTY), a 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 UTY for all periods. Prior to the merger, UTY had elected S Corporation status for income tax purposes. As a result of the merger, UTY terminated its S Corporation election. Pro forma adjustment for income taxes presents the pro forma tax expense of UTY as if UTY had been a C Corporation during the financial statement periods presented. 4.

As of June 1, 1998, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income. Statement 130 establishes new rules for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components; however, the adoption of this Statement had no impact on the Company's net income or shareholders' equity. Statement 130 requires the Company's foreign currency translation adjustment, which prior to adoption was reported separately in shareholders' equity to be included in other comprehensive income. Prior year financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the requirements of Statement 130. The components of comprehensive income for the three and six month periods ended November 30, 1998 and 1997 are as follows: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended November 30 November 30 1998 1997 1998 1997 ---- ---- ---- ---- Net income $39,800 $32,732 $73,660 $60,992 Other comprehensive income: Foreign currency translation adjustment 637 (381) (2,872) (683) -------- ------- ----- ------ Comprehensive income $40,437 $32,351 $70,788 $60,309 ======= ======= ======= ======= CINTAS CORPORATION MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Total revenues increased 25% and 27% for the three and six months ended November 30, 1998 over the same periods in fiscal 1998. Net rental revenue increased 25% and 26% for the three and six months ended November 30, 1998 over the same periods in the prior fiscal year, due primarily to growth in the customer base and the acquisitions of Apparelmaster and Mechanics Laundry in the second half of fiscal 1998. Second quarter revenues from other services increased 26% over the prior year?s second quarter. This increase resulted from increased sales in the Company's catalog, First Aid and Safety, National Account and Uniforms To You divisions. For the six months ended November 30, 1998 these revenues increased 31% over the same period in fiscal 1998. Net income on a pro forma basis increased 29% and 28% respectively, for the three and six months ended November 30, 1998, over the same periods in fiscal 1998. Pro forma basic earnings per share increased 22% and 23% respectively, for the three and six months ended November 30, 1998, over the same periods in fiscal 1998. Net interest expense (interest expense less interest income) was $1,365,000 and $2,601,000 respectively, for the three and six months ended November 30, 1998 compared to $887,000 and $2,044,000 respectively, for the same periods in the prior fiscal year. Net interest expense has increased primarily due to an increase in long-term debt related to acquisitions. The Company's effective tax rate on a pro forma basis was 38% in both periods of fiscal 1999 as well as fiscal 1998. Cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities decreased by $22 million at November 30, 1998 from May 31, 1998 primarily due to higher capital expenditures. The cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities will be used to finance future acquisitions and capital expenditures. Net property, plant and equipment increased by $56 million from May 31, 1998 to November 30, 1998. At the end of the second quarter of fiscal 1999, the Company had twenty-two uniform rental facilities in various stages of construction. Financial Condition At November 30, 1998, the Company had $79 million in cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities. The Company believes that its current cash position, funds anticipated to be generated from operations and the strength of its banking relationships are sufficient to meet its anticipated operational and capital needs requirements. Impact of Year 2000 The Company has completed an assessment of all of its software systems and has determined what changes need to be made so that its computer systems will function properly with respect to dates in the year 2000 and thereafter. The total cost of those changes is not expected to be material and will be expensed as incurred. The Company incurred the majority of its Year 2000 costs during fiscal 1998, and the remaining costs are expected to be expensed in fiscal 1999 when all changes are expected to be completed. The Company sees no risk of any of its systems not being Year 2000 compliant and therefore has developed no contingency plans for its systems. The Company has contacted its major suppliers to obtain certification of their systems Year 2000 compliance in order to identify any high-risk vendors. After these "high-risk" vendors have been identified the Company will develop a strategy for minimizing their risk. During 1999, the Company will follow up with all of its major suppliers to ensure that they meet their target dates. Strategies will include contingency plans such as alternative suppliers or alternative processes. The Company believes it is devoting appropriate resources to resolve any Year 2000 issues in a timely manner and believes that all internal systems will be prepared for Year 2000 processing. Based upon the work performed to date, the Company presently believes that the likelihood of the Year 2000 having a material result on its operations, liquidity or financial position is remote.
