Cintas snapping up a uniform maker UniFirst in a $5.5 billion cash and stock acquisition... The companies have expected synergies coming from the deal of $375 million. This strategic acquisition removes a competitor and consolidates the uniform rental market. The massive $375 million in projected synergies will directly flow to the bottom line, giving the combined entity superior pricing power and operational efficiency. LONG. Consolidation in a steady, recurring-revenue industrial sector with a clear line-of-sight to significant cost savings creates long-term shareholder value. Antitrust regulators could block or delay the merger due to market overlap, or integration hurdles could delay the realization of the projected synergies.

UniFirst likely sold above $300
UniFirst is a family-controlled uniform rental company that Cintas has tried to buy four times. Activist Engine Capital has pushed for a sale; a founder's grandson nominated to the board was defeated, showing family dissension. Cintas recently bid $275 per share while the stock traded around $160 and now trades around $200; Boyar thinks synergies are enormous, Cintas would pay well over $300, and the company is so mismanaged that even its best-case turnaround does not reach $275 soon. He expects the board to eventually sell above $300.
