Q3 2024 Financial Highlights
- Consolidated revenues for the third quarter increased 4.6% to $603.3 million.
- Operating income was $48.5 million, an increase of 45.1%.
- The quarterly tax rate decreased to 22.9% compared to 27.2% in the prior year.
- Net income increased to $38.1 million from $24.3 million in the prior year, or 56.8%.
- Diluted earnings per share increased to $2.03 from $1.29 in the prior year, or 57.4%.
- EBITDA increased to $82.5 million compared to $64.0 million in the prior year, or 29.0%.
- Cash flow from operating activities increased to $193.0 million in the first nine months of 2024, an increase of 35.2% over the prior year.
The Company's financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2024 and 2023 included approximately $3.9 million and $8.4 million, respectively, of costs directly attributable to its customer relationship management ("CRM") computer system and enterprise resource planning ("ERP") project. The Company refers to the CRM and ERP projects together as its ("Key Initiatives"). In addition, the Company incurred costs related to the acquisition of Clean Uniform during the third quarter of fiscal 2023 of approximately $0.7 million. The effect of these items on the third quarter of fiscal 2024 and 2023 combined to decrease:
- Both operating income and EBITDA by $3.9 million and $9.1 million, respectively.
- Net income by $2.9 million and $6.8 million, respectively.
- Diluted earnings per share by $0.16 and $0.37, respectively.
Steven Sintros, UniFirst President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We are pleased with the results for our third quarter, which delivered solid growth in revenues, EBITDA and cash flows from operating activities. I want to sincerely thank all our Team Partners who continue to Always Deliver for each other and our customers as we strive towards our vision of being universally recognized as the best service provider in the industry. …all while living our Mission of Serving the People Who do the Hard Work."
Segment Reporting Highlights
Core Laundry Operations
- Revenues for the quarter increased 5.3% to $528.5 million.
- Organic growth, which excludes the effect of acquisitions and fluctuations in the Canadian dollar, was 4.7%.
- Operating margin increased to 7.0% from 4.2%.
- Core Laundry Operations' EBITDA margin increased to 13.1% from 9.9%.
The costs we incurred related to the Key Initiatives and the Clean acquisition, discussed above, were recorded to the Core Laundry Operations' segment, and combined to decrease both the Core Laundry Operations' operating and EBITDA margins for the third quarters of fiscal 2024 and 2023 by 0.7% and 1.8%, respectively.
The segment's operating and EBITDA margin comparisons benefited from elevated expense in the prior year related to higher healthcare claims and costs related to a legal matter. In addition, merchandise, payroll and other operating input costs were lower in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 as a percentage of revenues.
Specialty Garments
- Revenues for the quarter were $47.6 million, a decrease of 3.7%, which was due primarily to a decline in revenue from our nuclear operations. Partially offsetting this decrease was growth in the segment's cleanroom operations.
- Operating margin decreased to 23.9% from 25.2% a year ago, primarily as a result of increased production costs, selling payroll costs and depreciation expense as a percentage of revenues. These margin pressures were partially offset by lower merchandise cost as a percentage of revenue.
- Specialty Garments consists of nuclear decontamination and cleanroom operations, and its results can vary significantly due to seasonality and the timing of reactor outages and projects.
Balance Sheet and Capital Allocation
- Cash, cash equivalents and Short-term investments totaled $125.4 million as of May 25, 2024.
- The Company had no long-term debt outstanding as of May 25, 2024.
- The Company repurchased 47,250 shares of Common Stock for $7.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. As of May 25, 2024, the Company had $84.0 million remaining under its existing share repurchase authorization.
- Weighted average shares outstanding - Diluted for both the third quarter of fiscal 2024 and fiscal 2023 were 18.7 million.
Financial Outlook
Mr. Sintros continued, "We continue to expect our revenues for fiscal 2024 to be between $2.415 billion and $2.425 billion, however, we now expect fully diluted earnings per share to be between $7.17 and $7.49." Our outlook for fiscal 2024 includes one extra week of operations compared to fiscal 2023 due to the timing of our fiscal quarter, and assumes:
- Core Laundry Operations' organic growth at the midpoint of the range of 4.5%.
- Core Laundry Operations' operating and EBITDA margins at the midpoint of the range of 6.6% and 12.7%, respectively.
- An estimate of $12.0 million of costs directly attributable to our Key Initiatives that will be expensed in fiscal 2024 and will decrease both the Core Laundry Operations' operating and EBITDA margins by 0.6%.
- An effective tax rate of 24.5%.
- No impact from any future share buybacks or unexpected significantly adverse economic developments.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company reports its consolidated financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). To supplement the Company's consolidated financial results in this press release, the Company also presents EBITDA and EBITDA margin, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company defines EBITDA as net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA margin is defined as EBITDA for a period divided by revenue for the same period.
The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information regarding the performance of the Company and its segments to both management and investors. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain items that may impact the comparability of the Company's results. In addition, by excluding certain items, these non-GAAP financial measures enable management and investors to further evaluate the underlying operating performance of the Company.
Supplemental reconciliations of the Company's consolidated net income on a GAAP basis to EBITDA and EBITDA margin, which are non-GAAP financial measures, are presented in the following tables. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which are provided below. EBITDA and EBITDA margin should be considered in addition to, and not as substitutes for, or in isolation from, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The Company does not allocate its provision for income taxes to its business segments and as a result, presents it in a separate column in the following tables.
