Cintas Corp (CTAS) Stock Forecast & Price Target
Cintas Corp (CTAS) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Cintas has demonstrated a solid capacity for organic growth, which is anticipated to be bolstered by increased volume driven by favorable market conditions and new client acquisitions. The positive sentiment among small businesses, as indicated by the NFIB Small Business Optimism Index, reflects a healthy economic backdrop that could enhance demand for Cintas's outsourcing services. Additionally, with over 90 years of experience and a comprehensive service offering, Cintas remains well-positioned to capitalize on its expertise and market reach, providing a significant competitive advantage.
Bears say
Cintas has faced significant financial challenges, including a $60 million year-over-year revenue impact attributed to customer churn in the third quarter of 2025, which has contributed to a slight decline in rolling 12-month business retention to 91.9%. The company's gross margin has also contracted by 200 basis points year-over-year, now standing at 27%, while the cost of services has escalated to $492 million. These factors, combined with anticipated macroeconomic headwinds potentially leading to a 10% decline in estimated earnings per share for 2027, underpin a negative outlook for the company's stock valuation.
