UniFirst Announces Financial Results for the Third Quarter of Fiscal 2025
WILMINGTON, Mass., July 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- UniFirst Corporation (NYSE: UNF) (the “Company,” “UniFirst” or “we”) today reported results for its third quarter ended May 31, 2025 as compared to the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year:
Q3 2025 Financial Highlights
- Consolidated revenues for the third quarter increased 1.2% to $610.8 million.
- Operating income was $48.2 million, a decrease of 0.6%.
- The quarterly tax rate increased to 25.7% compared to 22.9% in the prior year.
- Net income increased to $39.7 million from $38.1 million in the prior year, or 4.3%.
- Diluted earnings per share increased to $2.13 from $2.03 in the prior year, or 4.9%.
- Adjusted EBITDA increased to $85.8 million compared to $84.8 million in the prior year, or 1.2%.
The Company's financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2024 included approximately $1.0 million and $3.9 million, respectively, of costs directly attributable to its customer relationship management (“CRM”) computer system and enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) projects. The Company refers to the CRM and ERP projects together as its “Key Initiatives”. The effect of these items on the third quarter of fiscal 2025 and 2024 combined to decrease:
- Operating income and Adjusted EBITDA by $1.0 million and $3.9 million, respectively.
- Net income by $0.7 million and $2.9 million, respectively.
- Diluted earnings per share by $0.04 and $0.16, respectively.
Net income and diluted earnings per share also benefited from a $2.8 million gain on the sale of a non-operating property during the quarter. This gain was recorded to other (income) expense, net, but was excluded from Adjusted EBITDA.
Steven Sintros, UniFirst President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “The results for our third quarter were largely in line with our expectations. It is rewarding to see our recent investments beginning to yield measurable returns, evidenced by gross margin improvement and more effective execution across the business. I want to sincerely thank all of our 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. …all while living our mission of Serving the People Who do the Hard Work.”
Segment Reporting Highlights
Core Laundry Operations
- Revenues for the quarter increased 0.9% to $533.2 million.
- Organic growth, which excludes the effect of acquisitions and fluctuations in the Canadian dollar, was 1.1%.
- Operating margin decreased to 6.9% from 7.0%.
- Adjusted Core Laundry Operations' EBITDA margin was unchanged at 13.5%.
The costs we incurred related to the Key Initiatives were recorded to the Core Laundry Operations’ segment, and decreased both the Core Laundry Operations’ operating and Adjusted EBITDA margins for the third quarters of fiscal 2025 and 2024 by 0.2% and 0.7%, respectively.
The segment's operating and Adjusted EBITDA margins in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 were relatively consistent with the third quarter of the prior fiscal year. Both margin comparisons to the prior year continued to benefit from lower merchandise and production costs as a percentage of revenue but were offset by higher healthcare claims expense and approximately $5.7 million of expense related to advisory costs for a strategic matter and legal costs related to an employee matter in the third quarter of fiscal 2025.
Balance Sheet and Capital Allocation
- Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $211.9 million as of May 31, 2025.
- Cash flows from operating activities were $196.5 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2025.
- The Company repurchased $13.6 million of shares of Common Stock in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 and as of May 31, 2025 had $86.4 million remaining under its existing share repurchase authorization.
Financial Outlook
Mr. Sintros continued, “We are currently maintaining our annual revenue guidance within the range of $2.422 billion to $2.432 billion. However, we are raising our diluted earnings per share guidance to a range of $7.60 to $8.00. This adjustment reflects an updated assumption that our Key Initiative costs in fiscal 2025 will be approximately $7.5 million, revised from our previous estimate."
Please remember that fiscal year 2025 will consist of one less week of operations compared to fiscal year 2024, which included an additional week in its fourth fiscal quarter. Also, the guidance does not assume future share buybacks or unforeseen economic events.

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 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, which are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, further adjusted for share-based compensation expense and other items impacting the comparability of the Company’s underlying operating performance between periods. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as Adjusted 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. 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 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, are presented in the following table. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which are provided below. Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted 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.
