On Monday, RBC Capital maintained its Sector Perform rating on Cintas Corporation (NASDAQ:CTAS) with a steady price target of $215.00.
RBC Capital highlighted Cintas' ability to consistently outperform expectations, referring to the company's history as a "beat-and-raise" story.
The firm anticipates that Cintas will surpass its second-quarter fiscal year 2025 earnings estimates and may possibly increase its earnings per share (EPS) guidance. The company's strong performance is attributed to its effective execution, focus on industries resistant to economic downturns, and successful cross-selling strategies, which are expected to sustain its revenue growth above the industry average.
Despite the positive outlook on Cintas' operational performance, RBC Capital is closely monitoring the broader employment slowdown, which could potentially influence the company's growth. The firm estimates that Cintas will achieve incremental margins in the lower half of its 25-35% target range.
Nonetheless, RBC Capital acknowledges that there are potential upsides for the company, citing digital transformation initiatives and the impact of lower energy prices as contributing factors to future performance.
