Cintas Corp. (ISIN US1729081059) was trading at EUR 185.10 at Lang & Schwarz at 12:10 p.m. CEST on October 14, 2026. The latest corporate development came on October 2, 2026, when Cintas and UniFirst certified substantial compliance with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's additional-information request, according to StockTitan.

Three dates shape the deal

The transaction chronology began on March 10, 2026, when Cintas entered the merger agreement for UniFirst. The proposed combination is valued at USD 5.5 billion, according to the same October 6, 2026 filing carried by StockTitan.

On September 23, 2026, Cintas reported fiscal 2027 first-quarter revenue of USD 3.01 billion, up 10.90 percent from USD 2.72 billion a year earlier. Cintas also reported operating income of USD 711.9 million, up 15.20 percent, while adjusted diluted earnings per share rose 15.80 percent to USD 1.39.

The October 2 compliance certification is the third dated milestone. It sets December 11, 2026, as the earliest closing date under the FTC timing agreement unless the agency ends its review sooner, while Cintas continues to expect completion before the end of calendar year 2026.

What does the deal mean for guidance?

The operating backdrop is substantial because Cintas raised fiscal 2027 revenue guidance from USD 12.10 billion-USD 12.25 billion to USD 12.15 billion-USD 12.27 billion. It also lifted adjusted diluted earnings-per-share guidance from USD 5.36-USD 5.50 to USD 5.45-USD 5.54, with the new range excluding non-recurring UniFirst transaction expenses, per Cintas.

That distinction matters for the stock: the underlying first-quarter figures improved, but the acquisition still carries regulatory timing and integration conditions. The company recorded USD 14.4 million of UniFirst transaction expenses in operating income during the fiscal 2027 first quarter.
