NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

(Amounts in thousands except per share data)

1. Basis of Presentation

The consolidated condensed financial statements of Cintas Corporation (Cintas) included herein have been prepared by Cintas, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. While we believe that the disclosures are adequately presented, it is suggested that these consolidated condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our most recent Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2006. A summary of our significant accounting policies is presented on page 36 of that report. There has been no material changes in the accounting policies followed by Cintas during the fiscal year, with the exception of the new accounting standard discussed in Note 2 below.

Interim results are subject to variations and are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for a full fiscal year. In the opinion of management, adjustments (which include only normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the consolidated results of the interim periods shown have been made.

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation.

2. New Accounting Standard

At November 30, 2006, Cintas had an equity compensation plan, which is described in Note 6. Prior to June 1, 2006, Cintas accounted for this plan under the intrinsic value method proscribed by APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations, as permitted by FASB Statement No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Effective June 1, 2006, Cintas adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, using the modified-retrospective transition method. Under that transition method, all prior periods have been restated based on the amounts previously calculated in the pro forma footnote disclosures required by Statement 123. Statement 123(R) requires all share-based payments to employees, including stock options, to be recognized as an expense in the statement of income based on their fair values. Due to this restatement, Cintas’ income before income taxes and net income decreased by $1,132 for the three months ended November 30, 2005, and $2,245 for the six months ended November 30, 2005. This adoption did not result in a change to basic and diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of fiscal 2006 as it remained at $0.46 per share for the quarter, but it did lower basic and diluted earnings per share year-to-date from $0.93 per share to $0.92 per share. The cumulative effect of the change on total shareholders’ equity as of May 31, 2006, was less than $1,000.

As a result of adopting Statement 123(R) on June 1, 2006, Cintas’ income before income taxes and net income for the six months ended November 30, 2006, are $1,250 and $552 lower, respectively, than if it had continued to account for share-based compensation under Opinion 25. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended November 30, 2006, are less than $.01 lower than if Cintas had continued to account for share-based compensation under Opinion 25.

5. Debt, Derivatives and Hedging Activities

On August 15, 2006, Cintas issued $250,000 of senior notes due in 2036. This debt bears an interest rate of 6.15% paid semi-annually beginning February 15, 2007. The proceeds generated from the offering were used to repay a portion of our outstanding commercial paper borrowings.

Cintas formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. Cintas’ hedging activities are transacted only with highly-rated institutions, reducing the exposure to credit risk in the event of nonperformance. Cintas periodically uses derivatives for fair value hedging and cash flow hedging purposes. There were no fair value hedges in place as of November 30, 2006.

Cash flow hedges are derivative instruments that hedge the exposure of variability in short-term interest rates. These agreements effectively convert a portion of the floating rate debt to a fixed rate basis, thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense. The effective portion of the net gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains or losses on the ineffective portion of the hedge are charged to earnings in the current period. When outstanding, the effectiveness of these derivative instruments is reviewed at least every fiscal quarter. Examples of cash flow hedging instruments that Cintas may use are interest rate swaps, lock agreements and forward starting swaps. There were no interest rate swap or lock agreements outstanding as of November 30, 2006. There was a cash settled forward starting swap in place as of November 30, 2006, which is discussed below.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2006, Cintas entered into a cash settled forward starting swap to protect forecasted interest payments from interest rate movement for an anticipated $200,000 debt issuance in fiscal 2008. The Hypothetical Derivative Method is used to measure hedge effectiveness. Cintas expects the forward starting swap to be perfectly effective as the critical terms of the anticipated debt issuance will perfectly offset the hedged cash flows of the forecasted interest payments. When the $200,000 of hedged debt is issued, the lender will make a payment to Cintas if the 30-year Treasury rate has increased since the inception of the cash settled forward starting swap. Conversely, if the 30-year Treasury rate decreases during that period, Cintas will pay the lender. The value of the cash settled forward starting swap prior to the debt issuance is recorded in other comprehensive income in shareholders’ equity and other assets or accrued liabilities depending on the value of the swap at the end of each reporting period. Once the debt is issued, the value of the forward starting swap will be settled with cash and will be amortized to earnings over the term of the debt issuance.

Cintas used interest rate lock agreements to hedge against movements in the treasury rates at the time Cintas issued its senior notes, both for the senior notes issued in fiscal 2002 and the senior notes issued in fiscal 2007. The amortization of the cash flow hedges resulted in a credit to other comprehensive income of $104 for the three months ended November 30, 2006, and $177 for the six months ended November 30, 2006.

Cintas has certain significant covenants related to debt agreements. These covenants limit Cintas’ ability to incur certain liens, to engage in sale-leaseback transactions and to merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of Cintas’ assets. These covenants also require Cintas to maintain certain debt to capitalization and interest coverage ratios. Cross default provisions exist between certain debt instruments. Cintas is in compliance with all of the significant debt covenants for all periods presented. Were a default of a significant covenant to occur, the default could result in an acceleration of indebtedness, impair liquidity and limit the ability to raise future capital. Cintas’ debt, net of cash and marketable securities, is $619,052 as of November 30, 2006. For the six months ended November 30, 2006, net cash provided by operating activities was $227,334 and capital expenditures were $81,321.

6. Stock-Based Compensation

Under the 2005 equity compensation plan, which was approved by shareholders and adopted by Cintas in fiscal 2006, Cintas may grant officers and key employees equity compensation in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted and unrestricted stock, performance awards and other stock unit awards up to an aggregate of 14,000,000 shares of Cintas’ common stock. The compensation cost charged against income was $1,847 and $1,432 for the three month periods ended November 30, 2006 and November 30, 2005, respectively. The compensation cost charged against income was $1,250 and $3,045 for the six month periods ended November 30, 2006 and November 30, 2005, respectively. The amount recorded in the six month period ended November 30, 2006, reflects a cumulative catch-up adjustment of $2,169 ($2,088 after tax), due to a change in the estimated forfeitures for certain existing stock option and restricted stock grants. Basic and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended November 30, 2006, are both $.01 higher, respectively, due to this change in estimated forfeitures. The total income tax benefit recognized in the income statement for share-based compensation arrangements was $441 and $113 for the three month periods ended November 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and was $697 and $301 for the six month periods ended November 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

Stock Options

Stock options are granted at the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The option terms are determined by the Cintas Compensation Committee, but no stock option may be exercised later than ten years after the date of the grant. The option awards generally have ten year terms with graded vesting in years five through ten based on continuous service during that period. Cintas recognizes compensation expense for these options using the straight-line recognition method over the vesting period.

The fair value of these options was estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:

		Three and Six Months Ended
		November 30,
		2006				2005
Risk-free interest rate			4.00	%			4.00	%
Dividend yield			.70	%			.50	%
Expected volatility of Cintas’ common stock			35	%			35	%
Expected life of the option in years			7.5				9

The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. government issues with a remaining term equal to the expected life of the stock options. The determination of expected volatility is based on historical volatility of Cintas stock over the period commensurate with the expected term of stock options, as well as other relevant factors. The weighted average expected term was determined based on the historical employee exercise behavior of the options. The weighted-average grant date fair value of stock options granted during the three months ended November 30, 2006, was $17.47 and was $20.95 for the three months ended November 30, 2005. The weighted-average grant date fair value of stock options granted during the six months ended November 30, 2006, was $15.89 and was $20.95 for the six months ended November 30, 2005.

The information presented in the following table relates primarily to stock options granted and outstanding under either the plan adopted in fiscal 2006 or under previously adopted plans:

Restricted Stock

Restricted stock consists of Cintas’ common stock which is subject to such conditions, restrictions and limitations as the Cintas Compensation Committee determines to be appropriate. The vesting period is generally three years after the grant date.

The information presented in the following table relates to restricted stock granted and outstanding under the plan adopted in fiscal 2006:

The remaining unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options and restricted stock at November 30, 2006, was approximately $45,548, and the weighted-average period of time over which this cost will be recognized is 3.7 years.

Cintas reserves shares of common stock to satisfy share option exercises and/or future restricted stock grants. At November 30, 2006, 13,244,833 shares of common stock are reserved for future issuance under the 2005 plan.

During fiscal 2005, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved a resolution to accelerate the vesting for certain “out-of-the-money” options. The “out-of-the-money” options that were accelerated were provided to employees during fiscal 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003. The Compensation Committee approved this acceleration in order to provide these employees the increased benefit of exercising these options when they become “in-the-money” and to avoid recognizing future compensation expense related to outstanding options under Statement 123(R). After amendment of all underlying option agreements, compensation expense to be recognized in the statement of income during the first year of adoption of Statement 123(R) was reduced by approximately $3,500.

7. Comprehensive Income

Total comprehensive income represents the net change in shareholders’ equity during a period from sources other than transactions with shareholders and, as such, includes net earnings. For Cintas, the only components of total comprehensive income are the change in cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments, the change in the fair value of derivatives and the change in the fair value of available-for-sale securities. The components of comprehensive income for the three and six month periods ended November 30, 2006 and November 30, 2005 are as follows:

8. Litigation and Other Contingencies

Cintas is subject to legal proceedings and claims arising from the ordinary course of its business, including personal injury, customer contract, environmental and employment claims. In the opinion of management, the aggregate liability, if any, with respect to such ordinary course of business actions, will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of Cintas. Cintas is party to additional litigation not considered in the ordinary course of business, including the litigation discussed below.

Cintas is a defendant in a purported class action lawsuit, Paul Veliz, et al. v. Cintas Corporation, filed on March 19, 2003, in the United States District Court, Northern District of California, Oakland Division, alleging that Cintas violated certain federal and state wage and hour laws applicable to its service sales representatives, whom Cintas considers exempt employees, and asserting additional related ERISA claims. On August 23, 2005, an amended complaint was filed alleging additional state law wage and hour claims under the following state laws: Arkansas, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Mexico, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Washington, West Virginia and Wisconsin. The plaintiffs are seeking unspecified monetary damages, injunctive relief or both. Cintas denies these claims and is defending the plaintiffs’ allegations. On February 14, 2006, the court ordered a majority of the opt-in plaintiffs to arbitrate their claims in accordance with the terms of their Cintas employment agreement. On February 14, 2006, the court also permitted plaintiffs to file a second amended complaint alleging state law claims in the 15 states listed above only with respect to the putative class members that may litigate their claims in court. No determination has been made by the court or an arbitrator regarding class certification. There can be no assurance as to whether a class will be certified or, if a class is certified, as to the geographic or other scope of such class. If a court or arbitrator certifies a class in this action and there is an adverse verdict on the merits, or in the event of a negotiated settlement of the action, the resulting liability and/or any increased costs of operations on an ongoing basis could be material to Cintas. Any estimated liability relating to this lawsuit is not determinable at this time.

Cintas also is a defendant in a purported class action lawsuit, Mirna E. Serrano, et al. v. Cintas Corporation, filed on May 10, 2004, and pending in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division (“Serrano”). Serrano alleges that Cintas discriminated against women in

(In thousands except per share data)

hiring into various SSR positions across all divisions of Cintas throughout the United States. On November 15, 2005, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”) intervened in the Serrano lawsuit. The Serrano plaintiffs seek injunctive relief, compensatory damages, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and other remedies. Cintas is a defendant in another purported class action lawsuit, Nelly Blanca Avalos, et al. v. Cintas Corporation, currently pending in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division (“Avalos”). Avalos alleges that Cintas discriminated against women, African-Americans and Hispanics in hiring into various SSR positions in Cintas’ Rental division only throughout the United States. On April 27, 2005, the EEOC intervened in the claims asserted in Avalos. The Avalos plaintiffs seek injunctive relief, compensatory damages, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and other remedies. The claims in Avalos originally were brought in the previously disclosed lawsuit captioned Robert Ramirez, et al. v. Cintas Corporation, filed on January 20, 2004, in the United States District Court, Northern District of California, San Francisco Division (“Ramirez”). On May 11, 2006, however, those claims were severed from Ramirez and transferred to the Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division, where the case was re-named Avalos. On July 10, 2006, Avalos and Serrano were consolidated for all pretrial purposes, including proceedings on class certification. The consolidated case is known as Mirna E. Serrano/Blanca Nelly Avalos, et al. v. Cintas Corporation, and remains pending in the United States District Court, Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division. No filings or determinations have been made in Serrano/Avalos as to class certification. There can be no assurance as to whether a class will be certified or, if a class is certified, as to the geographic or other scope of such class. The non-SSR hiring claims in the previously disclosed Ramirez case that have not been dismissed remain pending in the Northern District of California, San Francisco Division, but were ordered to arbitration and stayed pending the completion of arbitration. The Ramirez purported class action claims currently in arbitration include allegations that Cintas failed to promote Hispanics into supervisory positions, discriminated against African-Americans and Hispanics in SSR route assignments and discriminated against African-Americans in hourly pay in Cintas’ Rental division only throughout the United States. The Ramirez plaintiffs seek injunctive relief, compensatory damages, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and other remedies. No filings or determinations have been made in Ramirez as to class certification. There can be no assurance as to whether a class will be certified or, if a class is certified, as to the geographic or other scope of such class. In addition, a class action lawsuit, Larry Houston, et al. v. Cintas Corporation, was filed on August 3, 2005, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California on behalf of African-American managers alleging racial discrimination. On November 22, 2005, the court entered an order requiring the named plaintiffs in the Houston lawsuit to arbitrate all of their claims for monetary damages. If there is an adverse verdict or a negotiated settlement of all or any of these actions, the resulting liability and/or any increased costs of operations on an ongoing basis could be material to Cintas. Any estimated liability relating to these proceedings is not determinable at this time.

Several other similar administrative proceedings are pending including two charges filed on November 30, 2004, by an EEOC Commissioner with the EEOC Systemic Litigation Unit alleging: (i) failure to hire and assign females to production job positions; and (ii) failure to hire females, African-Americans and Hispanics into the Management Trainee program. The investigations of these allegations are pending and no determinations have been made. On January 24, 2005, Jennifer Fargo filed a charge on behalf of herself and a similarly situated class with the Augusta Human Relations Commission and the EEOC Detroit District office alleging gender and equal pay discrimination against female sales representatives and sales associates. The investigation of these allegations is pending and no determinations have been made. On August 29, 2006, the EEOC Indianapolis District Office issued a dismissal and notice of rights and closed its file on the Clifton Cooper charge filed on March 23, 2005, by Cooper on behalf of himself and a similarly situated class with the EEOC Systemic Litigation Unit alleging discriminatory pay and treatment due to race. On May 26, 2006, the EEOC issued a dismissal and notice of rights and closed its file on the Melissa Schulz charge filed on April 25, 2005, on behalf of herself and a similarly situated class with the EEOC Systemic Litigation Unit and the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries, Civil Rights

Division alleging discriminatory pay and treatment due to race and gender, following a determination that it was unable to conclude that the information obtained established a violation of statute.

Cintas is also a defendant in a lawsuit, J. Lester Alexander, III vs. Cintas Corporation, et al., which was originally filed on October 25, 2004, and is currently pending in the Circuit Court of Randolph County, Alabama. The case was brought by J. Lester Alexander, III, the Chapter 7 Trustee (the “Trustee”) of Terry Manufacturing Company, Inc. (“TMC”) and Terry Uniform Company, LLC (“TUC”), against Cintas in Randolph County, Alabama. The Trustee seeks damages against Cintas for allegedly breaching fiduciary duties to TMC and TUC and for allegedly aiding and abetting breaches of fiduciary duties by others to those entities. The complaint also includes allegations that Cintas breached certain limited liability company agreements, or alternatively, misrepresented its intention to perform its obligations in those agreements and acted as alter egos of the bankrupt TMC and is therefore liable for all of TMC’s debts. The Trustee is seeking $50,000 in compensatory damages and $100,000 in punitive damages. Cintas denies these claims and is vigorously defending itself against all claims in the complaint. If there is an adverse verdict on the merits or in the event of a negotiated settlement of this lawsuit, the resulting liability could be material to Cintas. Any estimated liability relating to this lawsuit is not determinable at this time.

The litigation discussed above, if decided adversely to or settled by Cintas, may, individually or in the aggregate, result in liability material to Cintas’ financial condition or results of operations. Cintas may enter into discussions regarding settlement of these and other lawsuits, and may enter into settlement agreements if it believes such settlement is in the best interests of Cintas’ shareholders.

9. Segment Information

Cintas classifies its businesses into two operating segments, Rentals and Other Services, based on the similar economic characteristics of the products and services within each segment. The Rentals operating segment reflects the rental and servicing of uniforms and other garments, mats, mops and shop towels. In addition to these rental items, restroom and hygiene products and services are also provided within this segment. The Other Services operating segment consists of the direct sale of uniforms and related items, first aid, safety and fire protection products and services, document management services and branded promotional products. Both segments provide these products and services throughout the United States and Canada to businesses of all types — from small service and manufacturing companies to major corporations that employ thousands of people.

Information as to the operations of Cintas’ different business segments is set forth below based on the distribution of products and services offered. Cintas evaluates performances based on several factors of which the primary financial measures are business segment revenue and income before income taxes.
