UNIFIRST ANNOUNCES FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE SECOND QUARTER OF FISCAL 2019

Wilmington, MA (March 27, 2019) -- UniFirst Corporation (NYSE: UNF) today announced results for its second quarter ended February 23, 2019. Revenues for the quarter were $437.5 million, an increase of 4.3% from last year's second quarter. Operating income increased 48.9% from the prior year period to $62.4 million. Net income in the quarter decreased to $47.6 million ($2.48 per diluted share) from $58.4 million ($2.85 per diluted share) in the second quarter of fiscal 2018.

The Company's operating income and net income both benefited from a pre-tax gain of $21.1 million in the second quarter of 2019. This gain related to a settlement the Company entered into with the lead contractor for the version of the Customer Relationship Management system for which it recorded a $55.8 million impairment charge in fiscal 2017 (the "CRM Settlement"). This settlement included the receipt of a one-time cash payment in the amount of $13.0 million, the forgiveness of amounts previously due the contractor as well as the receipt of certain hardware and related maintenance.

The quarterly net income and earnings per diluted share ("EPS") comparisons were affected by uneven effective tax rates. The second quarter of fiscal 2019 had an effective tax rate of 24.9%, compared to a negative provision for income taxes in the year ago period. The prior year period tax rate was significantly impacted by the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act enacted on December 22, 2017, which resulted in a one-time benefit to the Company’s provision for income taxes of $20.1 million (the “Tax Reform Adjustment”). This benefit was largely due to a one-time revaluation of the Company’s U.S. net deferred tax liabilities. Excluding the impacts of the CRM Settlement and the Tax Reform Adjustment, the non-GAAP adjusted operating income in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 was $41.3 million compared to $42.0 million a year earlier. Non-GAAP adjusted net income for the quarter was $32.0 million ($1.67 per diluted share) compared to $38.2 million ($1.87 per diluted share) in the prior year period. The decline in non-GAAP adjusted net income and EPS was primarily due to a lower adjusted effective tax rate in the second quarter of fiscal 2018. The EPS decline was limited by fewer shares outstanding in the most recent quarter due to the effect of share repurchases made by the Company over the last twelve months. See the GAAP to Non-GAAP table for the reconciliation to adjusted results.

Steven Sintros, UniFirst President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "Overall we were pleased with the results of our second quarter as despite a modest decline in operating margin, our revenues and profits exceeded our expectations. We want to thank our thousands of employee Team Partners across North America, Central America and Europe as they continue to produce solid results for our Company all while striving to provide high quality service to our customers."

Core Laundry revenues in the quarter were $394.4 million, up 4.1% from the second quarter of the prior year. Organic revenue growth, which excludes the estimated effect of acquisitions as well as fluctuations in the Canadian dollar, was 4.0%. The Core Laundry operating margin, which was positively impacted by the CRM Settlement, was 15.0% compared to 10.0% in the second quarter of the prior year. Excluding the impact of the CRM Settlement, the non-GAAP adjusted Core Laundry operating margin decreased from 10.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 to 9.6%. See the GAAP to Non-GAAP table for the reconciliation to adjusted results. This decrease was primarily due to higher production and service payroll costs as well as higher merchandise amortization. These items were partially offset by lower healthcare claims as well as the capitalization of sales commission costs due to the adoption of new revenue accounting guidance in the first quarter of fiscal 2019.

Revenues from our Specialty Garments segment, which consists of nuclear decontamination and cleanroom operations, were $29.7 million in the quarter, an increase of 10.1% compared to the same period a year ago. This segment’s results can vary significantly due to seasonality and the timing of reactor outages and projects. This segment's top-line benefited from acquisitions in fiscal 2018 that increased quarterly revenues by 10.8%. Specialty Garments' operating margin decreased from 10.4% in the prior year to 7.5% in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 primarily due to higher costs related to its 2018 acquisitions as well as higher production payroll, merchandise amortization and casualty claims expense as a percentage of revenues.

UniFirst continues to maintain a strong balance sheet with no long-term debt and significant cash balances. At the end of the Company's second quarter of fiscal 2019, cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaled $335.3 million. During the second quarter of fiscal 2019, the Company repurchased 45,000 common shares at an average share price $139.57 under its previously announced stock repurchase program.

Outlook

Mr. Sintros continued, “At this time, we now expect our fiscal 2019 revenues will be between $1.785 billion and $1.795 billion. Based on better than expected results to date as well as the inclusion of the CRM Settlement we now expect full year diluted earnings per share to be between $7.65 and $7.90. This guidance for fiscal 2019 assumes no future share repurchases and includes one extra week of operations compared to fiscal 2018 due to the timing of our fiscal calendar."

Conference Call Information

UniFirst will hold a conference call today at 9:00 a.m. (ET) to discuss its quarterly financial results, business highlights and outlook. A simultaneous live webcast of the call will be available over the Internet and can be accessed at www.unifirst.com.

UniFirst Corporation and Subsidiaries
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 these consolidated financial results, management believes that certain non-GAAP operating results provide a more meaningful measure on which to compare the Company’s results of operations for the periods presented. The Company believes these non-GAAP results provide useful supplemental information regarding the Company’s performance to both management and investors by excluding certain non-recurring amounts that impact the comparability of the results. Supplemental reconciliations of consolidated operating income, net income and earnings per diluted share on a GAAP basis to adjusted operating income, net income and earnings per diluted share on a non-GAAP basis are presented in the following tables. In addition, Core Laundry Operations operating income and operating margin on a GAAP basis to adjusted operating income and adjusted operating margin on a non-GAAP basis are presented in the following tables. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which are provided below.

(a) The Tax Reform Adjustment, as presented, represents a one-time revaluation of our U.S. net deferred tax liabilities as well as a charge related to a one-time transition tax the Company will be subject to for the deemed repatriation of our foreign earnings. This does not include the benefit associated with the lower U.S. federal corporate income tax rates as of January 1, 2018. Our presentation of the effect of tax reform in our non-GAAP reconciliations of net income and diluted earnings per share for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended February 24, 2018 contained in our press release dated March 28, 2018 included all of the net benefits associated with lower U.S. federal corporate income tax rates amounting to $30.1 million. Our presentation of the effect of tax reform in our non-GAAP reconciliations of net income and diluted earnings per share for the thirty-nine weeks ended May 26, 2018 contained in our press release dated June 28, 2018 included all of the net benefits associated with lower U.S. federal corporate income tax rates.
