Valuation ratio Description The company
P/E ratio The P/E ratio tells analyst how much an investor in common stock pays per dollar of current earnings. Cintas Corp. P/E ratio increased from Q4 2024 to Q1 2025 but then decreased significantly from Q1 2025 to Q2 2025.
P/OP ratio Because P/E ratio is calculated using net income, the ratio can be sensitive to nonrecurring earnings and capital structure, analysts may use price to operating profit. Cintas Corp. P/OP ratio increased from Q4 2024 to Q1 2025 but then decreased significantly from Q1 2025 to Q2 2025.
P/S ratio An rationale for the P/S ratio is that sales, as the top line in an income statement, are generally less subject to distortion or manipulation than other fundamentals such as EPS or book value. Sales are also more stable than earnings and never negative. Cintas Corp. P/S ratio increased from Q4 2024 to Q1 2025 but then decreased significantly from Q1 2025 to Q2 2025.
P/BV ratio The P/BV ratio is interpreted as an indicator of market judgment about the relationship between a company required rate of return and its actual rate of return. Cintas Corp. P/BV ratio increased from Q4 2024 to Q1 2025 but then slightly decreased from Q1 2025 to Q2 2025 not reaching Q4 2024 level.

= (2,561,783,000 + 2,501,587,000 + 2,470,935,000 + 2,406,173,000) ÷ 403,543,932 = 24.63

3 Closing price as at the filing date of Cintas Corp. Quarterly or Annual Report.

4 Q2 2025 Calculation

= 192.65 ÷ 24.63 = 7.82

Valuation ratio Description The company
P/S ratio An rationale for the P/S ratio is that sales, as the top line in an income statement, are generally less subject to distortion or manipulation than other fundamentals such as EPS or book value. Sales are also more stable than earnings and never negative. Cintas Corp. P/S ratio increased from Q4 2024 to Q1 2025 but then decreased significantly from Q1 2025 to Q2 2025.
