UBS Maintains Neutral on UniFirst, Raises Price Target to $235

UniFirst Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNF#NYSE">UNF</a>) shares are trading higher after the company reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/g42871614/unifirst-announces-financial-results-for-the-first-quarter-of-fiscal-2025" rel="noreferrer noopener">first-quarter results</a>.
Quarterly sales of&nbsp;$604.91 million&nbsp;missed the analyst&nbsp;consensus of&nbsp;$606.62 million.
UniFirst registered&nbsp;an operating income of&nbsp;$55.5&nbsp;million,&nbsp;an increase of&nbsp;4.5%&nbsp;year over year.
Adjusted&nbsp;EBITDA increased to&nbsp;$94.0&nbsp;million&nbsp;from&nbsp;$88.7&nbsp;million&nbsp;in the prior year. Adjusted EPS&nbsp;of $2.40&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">beat the consensus of $2.22</a>.
UniFirst reported expenses of approximately $2.5 million in the quarter related to its key initiatives, including customer relationship management and enterprise resource planning projects. These items had a $0.09 effect in the&nbsp;first quarter.
UniFirst said its cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments totaled&nbsp;$181.0&nbsp;million&nbsp;as of November 30, with no long-term debt outstanding.
Outlook:&nbsp;UniFirst revised its FY25 revenue outlook to $2.425 billion &#8211; $2.440 billion from $2.425 billion &#8211; $2.445 billion, in line with the $2.434 billion estimate.
The company maintained its FY25 EPS guidance of $6.79 &#8211; $7.19, against the consensus of $7.67. This&nbsp;outlook&nbsp;continues to include an estimated&nbsp;$16.0 million&nbsp;of costs directly attributable to key initiatives that it anticipates will be expensed in fiscal 2025.
Yesterday, Cintas Corporation submitted a proposal to acquire all outstanding shares of&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/01/42849347/unifirst-shares-skyrocket-as-cintas-reveals-275-per-share-acquisition-offer" rel="noreferrer noopener">UniFirst for $275 per share in cash</a>.
This offer, which represents a 46% premium to UniFirst&#8217;s ninety-day average closing price as of January 6, 2025, values UniFirst at approximately $5.3 billion.
Meanwhile, UniFirst&nbsp;rejected the proposal, claiming it was <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/42852132" rel="noreferrer noopener">not in the best interests of the company and its shareholders.</a>

UniFirst Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNF#NYSE">UNF</a>) ("UniFirst" or the "Company") today confirmed that in November and December 2024, its Board of Directors received and unanimously rejected an unsolicited, non-binding and highly conditional proposal from Cintas Corporation to acquire all outstanding common and Class B shares of UniFirst for $275.00 per share.
Consistent with its fiduciary duties and in consultation with its independent advisors, the Board conducted a careful review of the unsolicited proposal and determined that it is not in the best interests of UniFirst, its shareholders and other stakeholders. In making its determination, the Board considered the offer price, execution and business risks, feedback from some of the Company's largest shareholders by voting power, and the Company's future growth and value creation opportunities.
The UniFirst Board and management team remain confident in the strategy the Company is executing and the opportunities ahead to create significant shareholder value. The Board and management team are committed to creating value for all shareholders and will continue to take actions to achieve that objective.

UniFirst, Getty Images, Shutterstock And Other Big Stocks Moving Higher On Tuesday

Unifirst Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNF#NYSE">UNF</a>) shares are trading higher on Tuesday. Cintas Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CTAS#NASDAQ">CTAS</a>) has made a solid move by submitting a proposal to acquire all outstanding shares of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/01/b42844424/cintas-proposes-to-acquire-unifirst-for-275-00-per-share-in-cash" rel="noreferrer noopener">UniFirst for $275 per share in cash.</a>
This offer, which represents a 46% premium to UniFirst&#8217;s ninety-day average closing price as of January 6, 2025, values UniFirst at approximately $5.3 billion.
The $275 per share offer is also a 54% premium to UniFirst&#8217;s closing price on February 7, 2022, when Cintas initially made a proposal of $255 per share. Cintas&nbsp;noted that UniFirst has repeatedly rejected Cintas&#8217; attempts to engage in discussions.
Per the press release today, Cintas made multiple efforts to initiate collaborative talks, even expressing willingness to increase the offer price and explore alternative forms of consideration for the benefit of UniFirst shareholders. However, UniFirst&#8217;s board has declined to meet and engage with Cintas at every turn.

Todd Schneider, President and CEO of Cintas, emphasized the strategic fit between the two companies, stating that the acquisition would drive growth through enhanced technology investments, processing capacity, and greater route density.
&#8220;While we would have preferred to have discussions with UniFirst in private, this is the second time in nearly three years that UniFirst has refused our constructive attempts to engage on an extremely compelling offer. Our decision to publicize our Proposal reflects our conviction in the merits of the combination, the value we place on UniFirst and its team and belief that UniFirst shareholders should know the value they stand to realize,&#8221; Schneider said.
Cintas&nbsp;said the proposed merger would also help the two companies tackle increasing competition from larger, better-capitalized firms in the garment and facility solutions sector.
Cintas said it is confident that the acquisition will create significant operational synergies and benefit both companies&#8217; shareholders. It is also committed to a smooth regulatory review process, with no financing contingencies, as the offer will be financed through Cintas&#8217; cash on hand, committed lines of credit, or other available funding sources.
While Cintas has publicly disclosed the details of its proposal, it continues to call on UniFirst&#8217;s board, management, and controlling shareholders to engage in meaningful discussions to reach a mutually acceptable agreement.
While releasing its <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/42844424" rel="noreferrer noopener">second-quarter results in December 2024</a>, Cintas said its fiscal year 2025 interest net is expected to be approximately $101.0 million compared to $95.0 million in the fiscal year 2024, predominately as a result of higher variable rate debt. This may change as a result of future share buybacks or acquisition activity.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Price Action: UNF shares are trading higher by 31.8% to $223.18 at last check Tuesday, while CTAS shares are trading higher by 3.44% to $191.48.

UniFirst Shares Skyrocket As Cintas Reveals $275 Per Share Acquisition Offer

WIIM

UniFirst shares are trading higher after Cintas submitted a proposal to acquire the company for $275 per share.

Proposal represents 46% premium to UniFirst's 90-day average price as of January 6, 2025
Combination would accelerate benefits to customers, employee-partners and shareholders from ongoing technology investments
Cintas Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CTAS#NASDAQ">CTAS</a>) today announced that it submitted a proposal to the Board of Directors of UniFirst Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNF#NYSE">UNF</a>) to acquire all outstanding common and class B shares of UniFirst for $275.00 per share (the "Proposal") in cash. The Proposal implies a total value for UniFirst of approximately $5.3 billion and offers UniFirst shareholders a 46% premium to UniFirst's ninety-day average closing price as of January 6, 2025.
The Proposal was initially delivered to the UniFirst Board on November 8, 2024. Despite Cintas' multiple attempts to engage in a collaborative discussion, including a willingness to identify potential sources of additional value that would enable Cintas to increase its offer price and the Company's openness to exploring alternative forms of consideration for the benefit of UniFirst shareholders, UniFirst's Board has refused to meet.

Cintas Proposes To Acquire UniFirst For $275 Per Share In Cash

UniFirst Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UNF#NYSE">UNF</a>) will release its first-quarter financial results, before the opening bell, on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/UNF/earnings">Wednesday, Jan. 8, 2025.</a>
Analysts expect the Wilmington, Massachusetts-based company to report quarterly earnings at $2.22 per share, down from $2.37 per share in the year-ago period. UniFirst projects quarterly revenue of $606.95 million, compared to $593.52 million a year earlier, according to data from <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>.
On Oct. 29, Unifirst raised its quarterly cash dividend from 33 cents to 35 cents per share.
With the recent buzz around UniFirst, some investors may be eyeing potential gains from the company's dividends too. As of now, UniFirst offers an annual dividend yield of 0.81%, which is a quarterly dividend amount of 35 cents per share ($1.40 a year).
So, how can investors exploit its dividend yield to pocket a regular $500 monthly?
To earn $500 per month or $6,000 annually from dividends alone, you would need an investment of approximately $740,578 or around 4,286 shares. For a more modest $100 per month or $1,200 per year, you would need $148,081 or around 857 shares.
To calculate: Divide the desired annual income ($6,000 or $1,200) by the dividend ($1.40 in this case). So, $6,000 / $1.40 = 4,286 ($500 per month), and $1,200 / $1.40 = 857 shares ($100 per month).
Note that dividend yield can change on a rolling basis, as the dividend payment and the stock price both fluctuate over time.
How that works: The dividend yield is computed by dividing the annual dividend payment by the stock&#8217;s current price.
For example, if a stock pays an annual dividend of $2 and is currently priced at $50, the dividend yield would be 4% ($2/$50). However, if the stock price increases to $60, the dividend yield drops to 3.33% ($2/$60). Conversely, if the stock price falls to $40, the dividend yield rises to 5% ($2/$40).
Similarly, changes in the dividend payment can impact the yield. If a company increases its dividend, the yield will also increase, provided the stock price stays the same. Conversely, if the dividend payment decreases, so will the yield.
UNF Price Action: Shares of UniFirst fell 2.2% to close at $172.79 on Friday.
