Cintas Corporation (Nasdaq: CTAS) today reported results for its fiscal 2025 fourth quarter ended May 31, 2025. Revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 increased to $2.67 billion compared to $2.47 billion in last year’s fourth quarter, an increase of 8.0%. The fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 was negatively impacted by one less workday compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. On a same workday basis, revenue for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 was 9.6%. The organic revenue growth rate for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, which adjusts for the impacts of acquisitions, foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations and workday differences, was 9.0%.
Gross margin for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 increased to $1.33 billion compared to $1.22 billion in last year’s fourth quarter, an increase of 9.1%. Gross margin as a percentage of revenue was 49.7% for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to 49.2% in last year's fourth quarter, an increase of 50 basis points.
Operating income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 increased 9.1% to $597.5 million compared to $547.6 million in last year's fourth quarter. Operating income as a percentage of revenue was 22.4% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to 22.2% in last year's fourth quarter.
Net income increased to $448.3 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to $414.3 million in last year's fourth quarter, an increase of 8.2%. The fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 effective tax rate was 22.1% compared to 21.4% in last year's fourth quarter. The tax rates in both quarters were impacted by certain discrete items, primarily the tax accounting impact for stock-based compensation. Fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 diluted earnings per share (EPS) was $1.09 compared to $1.00 in last year's fourth quarter, an increase of 9.0%. The diluted EPS in each period is reflective of the impact of the four-for-one split of Cintas' common stock on September 11, 2024 (the Stock Split).
