WILMINGTON, Mass., June 28, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UniFirst Corporation (NYSE: UNF) (the “Company,” “UniFirst” or “we”) today reported results for its third quarter ended May 27, 2023 as compared to the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year:
Q3 2023 Financial Highlights
- Consolidated revenues increased 12.7% to $576.7 million.
- Operating income was $33.4 million, a decrease of 0.9%.
- The quarterly tax rate increased to 27.2% compared to 25.4% in the prior year.
- Net income decreased to $24.3 million from $25.1 million in the prior year, or 3.2%.
- Diluted earnings per share decreased to $1.29 from $1.33 in the prior year, or 3.0%.
- EBITDA increased to $64.0 million compared to $60.3 million in the prior year, or 6.1%.
The Company's financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 and 2022 included approximately $8.4 million and $11.4 million, respectively, of costs directly attributable to its CRM, ERP and branding initiatives (the "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 2023 and 2022 combined to decrease:
- Operating income and EBITDA by $9.1 million and $11.4 million, respectively.
- Net income by $6.8 million and $8.4 million, respectively.
- EPS by $0.37 and $0.44, respectively.
Steven Sintros, UniFirst President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are pleased with our strong top line performance in the quarter, but continue to be focused as a Company on mitigating the cost pressures impacting our operations. The early days of our recently closed acquisition of Clean Uniform have been very constructive with initial efforts being focused primarily on retaining Clean’s most important assets — its people and its customers. We continue to be excited about the strength and quality of the Clean business and what we continue to believe the combined companies will be able to achieve in the markets we serve together. As always, I want to thank our over 14,000 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.”
Segment Reporting Highlights
Core Laundry Operations
- Revenues for the quarter increased 11.5% to $501.7 million.
- Organic growth, which excludes the effect of acquisitions and fluctuations in the Canadian dollar, was 7.8%.
- Operating margin decreased to 4.2% from 5.9%.
- Core Laundry Operations' EBITDA margin decreased to 9.9% from 11.4%.
The costs incurred related to the Key Initiatives and Clean Uniform acquisition, discussed above, were recorded to the Core Laundry Operations' segment, and decreased the Core Laundry Operations' operating and EBITDA margin for the third quarters of fiscal 2023 and 2022 by 1.8% and 2.5%, respectively.
The segment's operating and EBITDA margin were also impacted by approximately $5.3 million of additional expense compared to prior year related to high healthcare claims and costs incurred related to a legal matter as well as higher merchandise and other operating costs as a percentage of revenues which are being impacted by the inflationary environment. These increases were partially offset by lower energy costs during the quarter compared to prior year. The preliminary purchase accounting for the recent Clean Uniform acquisition further impacted the segment’s operating margin, most notably in the form of elevated non-cash intangibles amortization.
Specialty Garments
- Revenues for the quarter were $49.4 million, an increase of 19.9%, which was driven by growth in the segment's cleanroom and North American nuclear operations.
- Operating margin increased to 25.2% from 17.4% a year ago, primarily the result of the strong top line performance.
- Specialty Garments' EBITDA margin increased to 27.1% from 19.9%.
- 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 and cash equivalents and Short-term investments totaled $69.3 million as of May 27, 2023.
- The Company had no long-term debt outstanding as of May 27, 2023.
- The Company did not repurchase any shares of common stock in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. As of May 27, 2023, the Company had $63.6 million remaining under its current stock repurchase program.
- Weighted average shares outstanding – Diluted for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2022 were 18.7 million and 18.9 million, respectively.
Financial Outlook
The Company now expects its revenues for fiscal 2023 to be between $2.220 billion and $2.230 billion, primarily as a result of the strong top-line performance in the Specialty Garments' business. We continue to expect diluted earnings per share to be between $5.02 and $5.37, which currently reflects:
- Core Laundry Operations’ operating and EBITDA margin at the midpoint of the range of 4.7% and 10.5%, respectively.
- The impact of strong profitability in the Specialty Garments’ business in the current quarter, as well as improved expectations for the remainder of the year.
- An estimate of $37.0 million of costs directly attributable to our Key Initiatives as well as $3.0 million of Clean acquisition-related expenses, which combined to decrease the Core Laundry Operations' operating and EBITDA margin assumptions by 2.1% and EPS by $1.60.
- An effective tax rate of 25.75%.
- 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 net income margin on a GAAP basis to EBITDA margin are presented in the following table. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of these 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:
