How Cintas Stock Has Gained From Strong Employment Trends In The U.S.
Cintas (NASDAQ:CTAS) provides a host of services to businesses, including corporate uniforms, floor care, restroom supplies, first aid, and safety products and services. The stock is up by about 60% year-to-date, currently trading at levels of around $270 per share, driven by a strong U.S. job market, which helps the company sell more of its uniforms and other offerings. The company’s earnings over the Q4 FY’19 and Q1 FY’20 (fiscal years end June) were also been stronger than expected, boosting investor sentiment. As U.S. businesses continue to do well, we expect the company to see revenue growth of around 7% for FY’20, compared to a growth rate of about 6% last year. Below, we take a look at the company’s performance over the last few years and what the outlook could be like.
