CINTAS CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited) 
1.             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 U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) 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 consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2014. A summary of our significant accounting policies is presented beginning on page 38 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.

During fiscal 2015, Cintas sold its document imaging and document retention services business (Storage) and as a result has classified its operations as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. See Note 12 entitled Discontinued Operations for more information.

On April 30, 2014, Cintas completed its partnership transaction with the shareholders of Shred-it International Inc. (Shred-it) to combine Cintas’ document destruction, or shredding, business with Shred-it’s document shredding business. Under the agreement, Cintas and Shred-it each contributed its document shredding business to a newly formed partnership (the Shred-it partnership) owned 42% by Cintas and 58% by the shareholders of Shred-it. In conjunction with the partnership agreement, Cintas agreed to provide certain transition services such as information technology and accounting in support of the Shred-it partnership for a period not to exceed fifteen months from the April 30, 2014 closing date. For all periods prior to the partnership transaction, the results of Cintas' document shredding business remain presented in continuing operations as required under GAAP.

As disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2014, inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market. Inventory is comprised of the following amounts at:

2.             New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)," to clarify revenue recognition principles. This guidance is intended to improve disclosure requirements and enhance the comparability of revenue recognition practices. Improved disclosures under the amended guidance relate to the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue that is recognized from contracts with customers. This guidance will be effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and will be required to be applied retrospectively. Early application of the amendments in this update is not permitted. Cintas is currently evaluating the impact that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated condensed financial statements.
No other new accounting pronouncement recently issued or newly effective had or is expected to have a material impact on the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

Cintas’ cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities are generally classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Financial instruments classified as Level 1 are based on quoted market prices in active markets, and financial instruments classified as Level 2 are based on quoted market prices, broker or dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources with reasonable levels of price transparency. The types of financial instruments Cintas classifies within Level 1 include most bank deposits and money market securities. Cintas does not adjust the quoted market price for such financial instruments.

The types of financial instruments Cintas classifies within Level 2 are primarily Canadian treasury securities (federal). The valuation technique used for Cintas’ marketable securities classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy is primarily the market approach. The primary inputs to value Cintas’ marketable securities is the respective instrument's future cash flows based on its stated yield and the amount a market participant would pay for a similar instrument. Primarily all of Cintas’ marketable securities are actively traded and the recorded fair value reflects current market conditions. However, due to the inherent volatility in the investment market, there is at least a possibility that recorded investment values may change in the near term.

The funds invested in Canadian treasury securities are not presently expected to be repatriated, but instead are expected to be invested indefinitely in foreign subsidiaries. Interest, realized gains and losses and declines in value determined to be other than temporary on available-for-sale securities are included in interest income or expense. The cost of the securities sold is based on the specific identification method. The amortized cost basis of marketable securities as of February 28, 2015 was $44.9 million. There were no outstanding marketable securities as of May 31, 2014. All outstanding marketable securities at February 28, 2015 had contractual maturities due within one year.

Foreign currency forward contracts were included in current accrued liabilities as of February 28, 2015 and May 31, 2014. The fair value of Cintas' foreign currency forward contracts are based on similar exchange traded derivatives (market approach) and are, therefore, included within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The methods described above may produce a fair value that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while Cintas believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with

8



other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the consolidated balance sheet date.
In addition to assets and liabilities that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company records assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as required under GAAP. As a result of the shredding partnership transaction and in accordance with GAAP requirements, Cintas' equity method investment in the Shred-it partnership was initially measured at fair value. See Note 4 entitled Investments for additional information on the measurement of the investment in the Shred-it partnership.

4.             Investments
 
Investments at February 28, 2015 of $445.5 million include an equity method investment in the Shred-it partnership of $330.2 million, other equity method investments of $16.2 million, the cash surrender value of insurance policies of $96.9 million and cost method investments of $2.2 million. Investments at May 31, 2014 of $458.4 million include an equity method investment in the Shred-it partnership of $341.4 million, other equity method investments of $29.7 million, the cash surrender value of insurance policies of $86.5 million and cost method investments of $0.8 million.

Investments are evaluated for impairment on an annual basis or when indicators of impairment exist. For the three and nine months ended February 28, 2015 and 2014, no losses due to impairment were recorded.

On April 30, 2014, Cintas completed its partnership transaction with the shareholders of Shred-it to combine Cintas’ document shredding business with Shred-it’s document shredding business. Under the agreement, Cintas and Shred-it each contributed its document shredding business to a newly formed partnership owned 42% by Cintas. The resulting equity method investment (Level 3) in the Shred-it partnership was initially recorded at fair value at $339.4 million derived with a primary reliance upon the income approach utilizing various discounted cash flow models. Fair value was determined by an independent valuation specialist. Management ultimately oversees the independent valuation specialist to ensure that the transaction-specific assumptions are appropriate for Cintas. The following table details quantitative information about significant unobservable inputs used in the initial valuation of Cintas' investment in the Shred-it partnership:

In the first quarter of fiscal 2015, Cintas received additional proceeds related to the contribution of the shredding business to the Shred-it partnership. The Company realized a pre-tax gain of $6.6 million as a result of the additional consideration received. During the three and nine months ended February 28, 2015, Cintas recorded a net loss on our investment in Shred-it of $6.8 million and $7.0 million, respectively.
On June 30, 2014, Cintas sold stock in an equity method investment. In conjunction with the sale, Cintas also received a cash dividend of $5.2 million. Total cash received from the transaction was $35.2 million. The sale resulted in the recording of a gain, net of tax, of approximately $13.6 million in the nine months ended February 28, 2015. As a result, the Company no longer has the ability to exercise significant influence over the investee. Therefore, effective July 1, 2014, the remaining investment retained by Cintas is accounted for under the cost method.

Basic and diluted earnings per share from discontinued operations were $0.01 for the three months ended February 28, 2015, and $0.16 and $0.15, respectively, for the nine months ended February 28, 2015. Basic and diluted earnings per share from discontinued operations rounded to $0.00 for the three months ended February 28, 2014. Basic and diluted earnings per share from discontinued operations were $0.01 for the nine months ended February 28, 2014.

For both the three months ended February 28, 2015 and 2014, options granted to purchase 0.4 million shares of Cintas common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. For the nine months ended February 28, 2015 and 2014, options granted to purchase 0.7 million and 0.6 million shares of Cintas common stock, respectively, were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. The exercise prices of these options were greater than the average market price of the common stock (anti-dilutive).

On July 30, 2013, we announced that the Board of Directors authorized a $500.0 million share buyback program. This plan was completed in February 2015. On January 13, 2015, we announced that the Board of Directors authorized a new $500.0 million share buyback program, which does not have an expiration date. For the three months ended

During the nine months ended February 28, 2015, we purchased 4.0 million shares of Cintas common stock at an average price of $75.49 per share for a total purchase price of $300.5 million. In the period subsequent to February 28, 2015 through April 2, 2015, we did not purchase any shares of Cintas common stock. From the inception of the July 30, 2013 share buyback program through completion of the program in February 2015, Cintas purchased a total of 7.3 million shares of Cintas common stock at an average price of $68.28 per share for a total purchase price of $500.0 million. In addition, for the nine months ended February 28, 2015, Cintas acquired 0.2 million shares of Cintas common stock for employee payroll taxes due on restricted stock awards that vested during the nine months ended February 28, 2015. These shares were acquired at an average price of $64.32 per share for a total purchase price of $14.1 million. Of the total purchase price, $0.2 million occurred in the three months ended February 28, 2015.

6.             Goodwill, Service Contracts and Other Assets
 
Effective August 31, 2014, the Storage business was classified as discontinued operations. As a result, goodwill and service contracts related to this business, which were previously included in the Document Management Services operating segment, are included in the Corporate segment. The Storage business was sold in three separate transactions during the quarter ended November 30, 2014. See Note 12 entitled Discontinued Operations for more information.

Amortization expense for continuing operations was $3.4 million and $5.1 million for the three months ended February 28, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Amortization expense for continuing operations was $10.3 million and $15.6 million for the nine months ended February 28, 2015 and 2014, respectively.  Estimated amortization expense for continuing operations, excluding any future acquisitions, for each of the next five full fiscal years is $14.0 million, $10.2 million, $6.0 million, $5.0 million and $4.7 million, respectively.

7.             Debt, Derivatives and Hedging Activities
 
Cintas' senior notes are recorded at cost. The fair value of the senior notes is estimated using Level 2 inputs based on general market prices. The carrying value and fair value of Cintas' long-term debt as of February 28, 2015 were $1,300.0 million and $1,428.0 million, respectively, and as of May 31, 2014 were $1,301.0 million and $1,421.0 million, respectively.

Cintas’ commercial paper program has a capacity of $300.0 million that is fully supported by a backup revolving credit facility through a credit agreement with its banking group. This revolving credit facility has an accordion feature that allows for a maximum borrowing capacity of $450.0 million and has a maturity date of May 28, 2019. No commercial paper or borrowings on our revolving credit facility were outstanding as of February 28, 2015 or May 31, 2014.

Cintas used interest rate lock agreements to hedge against movements in the treasury rates at the time Cintas issued its senior notes in fiscal 2007, fiscal 2008, fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2013. The amortization of the cash flow hedges resulted in an increase to other comprehensive income of $0.5 million for the three months ended February 28, 2015 and 2014 and $1.5 million for the nine months ended February 28, 2015 and 2014.

To hedge the exposure of movements in the foreign currency rates, Cintas may use foreign currency hedges. These hedges reduce the impact on cash flows from movements in the foreign currency exchange rates. Examples of foreign currency hedge instruments that Cintas may use are average rate options and forward contracts. Cintas had foreign currency forward contracts included in current accrued liabilities of $0.3 million as of February 28, 2015 and May 31, 2014.

Cintas has certain covenants related to debt agreements. These covenants limit Cintas’ ability to incur certain liens, to engage in sale-leaseback transactions and to merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of Cintas’ assets. These covenants also require Cintas to maintain certain debt to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) and interest coverage ratios. Cross-default provisions exist between certain debt instruments.  Cintas is in compliance with all debt covenants for all periods presented. If a default of a significant covenant were to occur, the default could result in an acceleration of the maturity of the indebtedness, impair liquidity and limit the ability to raise future capital. 


12



8.             Income Taxes
 
In the normal course of business, Cintas provides for uncertain tax positions and the related interest, and adjusts its unrecognized tax benefits and accrued interest accordingly.  During the three months ended February 28, 2015, unrecognized tax benefits increased by approximately $0.4 million and accrued interest increased by less than $0.1 million. During the nine months ended February 28, 2015, unrecognized tax benefits increased by approximately $1.4 million and accrued interest increased by approximately $0.2 million.
 
All U.S. federal income tax returns are closed to audit through fiscal 2010. Cintas is currently in advanced stages of various audits in certain foreign jurisdictions and certain domestic states. The years under audit cover fiscal years back to 2005.  Based on the resolution of the various audits and changes in tax law, it is reasonably possible that the balance of unrecognized tax benefits would not change for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2015.

On September 13, 2013, the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Internal Revenue Service released final tangible property regulations under Sections 162(a) and 263(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 regarding amounts paid to improve tangible property and acquire or produce tangible property, as well as proposed regulations regarding the disposition of property. The effective date of the final regulations was extended and is effective for Cintas' fiscal year ending May 31, 2015. Cintas is reviewing these regulations and does not believe there will be a material impact on the consolidated condensed financial statements.

9. Litigation and Other Contingencies
Cintas is subject to legal proceedings, insurance receipts, legal settlements and claims arising from the ordinary course of its business, including personal injury, customer contract, environmental and employment claims. In the opinion of management, the aggregate liability, if any, with respect to such ordinary course of business actions will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated condensed financial position, results of operations or cash flows of Cintas.
Cintas is party to additional litigation not considered in the ordinary course of business, including the litigation discussed below. Cintas is a defendant in a purported class action lawsuit, Mirna E. Serrano, et al. v. Cintas Corporation (Serrano), filed on May 10, 2004, and pending in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division. The Serrano plaintiffs alleged that Cintas discriminated against women in hiring into various service sales representative positions across all divisions of Cintas. On November 15, 2005, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) intervened in the Serrano lawsuit. The Serrano plaintiffs seek injunctive relief, compensatory damages, punitive damages, attorneys' fees and other remedies. On October 27, 2008, the United States District Court in the Eastern District of Michigan granted summary judgment in favor of Cintas limiting the scope of the putative class in the Serrano lawsuit to female applicants for service sales representative positions at Cintas locations within the state of Michigan. Consequently, all claims brought by female applicants for service sales representative positions outside of the state of Michigan were dismissed. Similarly, any claims brought by the EEOC on behalf of similarly situated female applicants outside of the state of Michigan have also been dismissed from the Serrano lawsuit. In September 2010, the Court in Serrano dismissed all private individual claims and all claims of the EEOC and the 13 individuals it claimed to represent. The EEOC appealed the District Court's summary judgment decisions and various other rulings to the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. On November 9, 2012, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals reversed the District Court's opinion and remanded the claims back to the District Court. On April 16, 2013, Cintas filed with the United States Supreme Court a Petition for a Writ of Certiorari seeking to review the judgment of the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit. On October 7, 2013, the Court denied Cintas’ Petition, thus remanding the claims back to the District Court consistent with the Sixth Circuit Court’s November 9, 2012 decision.
The litigation discussed above, if decided or settled adversely to Cintas, may result in liability material to Cintas' consolidated condensed financial condition, results of operations or cash flows and could increase costs of operations on an ongoing basis. Any estimated liability relating to these proceedings is not determinable at this time. Cintas may enter into discussions regarding settlement of these and other lawsuits, and may enter into settlement agreements if it believes such settlement is in the best interest of Cintas' shareholders.

11.      Segment Information
 
Cintas classifies its businesses into three operating segments based on the types of products and services provided. The Rental Uniforms and Ancillary Products operating segment consists of the rental and servicing of uniforms and other garments including flame resistant clothing, mats, mops and shop towels and other ancillary items.  In addition to these rental items, restroom cleaning services and supplies and carpet and tile cleaning services are also provided within this operating segment. The Uniform Direct Sales operating segment consists of the direct sale of uniforms and related items. The First Aid, Safety and Fire Protection Services operating segment consists of first aid, safety and fire protection products and services.
 
Prior to August 31, 2014, Cintas classified its business into four operating segments. The Document Management Services operating segment is no longer considered an operating segment for fiscal 2015 and beyond. This operating segment consisted of the document Shredding and Storage businesses. On April 30, 2014, Cintas completed its partnership transaction with the shareholders of Shred-it to combine Cintas' shredding business with Shred-it's shredding business. The document destruction business is reported in Corporate for the three- and nine-month periods ended February 28, 2014. Additionally, effective August 31, 2014, the document Storage business is classified as discontinued operations.

12.      Discontinued Operations
 
Effective August 31, 2014, Cintas' Storage business was classified as discontinued operations. The business was previously included in the Document Management Services operating segment. In accordance with the applicable accounting guidance for the disposal of long-lived assets, the results of the document imaging and document retention services business have been excluded from both continuing operations and segment results for all periods presented.

In the quarter ended November 30, 2014, Cintas sold the Storage business. The Storage business, excluding related real estate owned by Cintas, was sold in three separate transactions to three separate buyers. For the nine months ended February 28, 2015, cash proceeds received at the closing of each transaction total $154.9 million, net of cash contributed. During the three months ended February 28, 2015, Cintas received additional proceeds of $0.9 million in connection with the Storage transaction. Each transaction involves contingent consideration that the Company has an opportunity to receive if specified future events occur. Because of the uncertainty surrounding the future events, these amounts represent gain contingencies have not been recorded. Certain real estate owned by Cintas is being leased by the buyers. These lease payments do not represent a material direct cash flow of the disposed Storage business and therefore does not impact the classification of the Storage business as a discontinued operation.

Following is selected financial information included in net income from discontinued operations for the Storage business:
