              NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)

1.   The consolidated  condensed financial statements of Cintas Corporation (the
     "Company")  included  herein  have been  prepared by the  Company,  without
     audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
     Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
     in financial  statements  prepared in accordance  with  generally  accepted
     accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules
     and regulations.  While the Company believes that the disclosures presented
     are adequate to make the information  not misleading,  it is suggested that
     these consolidated  condensed  financial  statements be read in conjunction
     with the financial  statements  and notes  included in the  Company's  most
     recent annual report for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1997.

2.   Interim   results  are  subject  to  variations  and  are  not  necessarily
     indicative  of the results of  operations  for a full fiscal  year.  In the
     opinion of management,  adjustments  (which  include only normal  recurring
     adjustments)  necessary for a fair  statement of the results of the interim
     periods shown have been made.

                               CINTAS CORPORATION
                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Total  revenues  increased 22% in the first quarter of fiscal 1998 over the same
period in fiscal 1997.  Net rental  revenue  increased  16% for the three months
ended  August  31,  1997  over the same  period in the prior  fiscal  year,  due
primarily  to growth in the  customer  base.  In past  filings,  the Company has
reported revenue between rental revenues and sales revenues.  Sales revenues was
the  terminology  to distinguish  revenues  which were nonrental in nature.  The
nature of the activity  previously  classified  as sales  includes a significant
service  element  for the  customer,  and thus this  category of revenues is now
called  "Other  Service  Revenue."  First quarter  revenues from other  services
increased 78% over the prior year's first  quarter,  principally  as a result of
the addition of first aid services to the Company's product offerings,  and to a
one-time inventory transaction which increased total revenue growth by 2%.

Net income and earnings per share increased 22% and 19%,  respectively,  for the
three months ended August 31, 1997, over the same period in fiscal 1997.

Net interest  expense  (interest  expense less interest income) was $712,000 for
the first  quarter of fiscal 1998 compared to $1,135,000 in the first quarter of
fiscal 1997. Net interest expense has decreased  primarily due to an increase in
interest income (related to a higher level of cash and marketable  securities on
hand) combined with a decrease in interest expense (related to a lower amount of
long-term debt and improved  interest rates).  The Company's  effective tax rate
was 38% in both periods.

Cash,  cash  equivalents  and marketable  securities  increased by $2 million at
August 31, 1997 from May 31, 1997.  The cash,  cash  equivalents  and marketable
securities will be used to finance future acquisitions and capital expenditures.

Net property,  plant and equipment increased by $10 million from May 31, 1997 to
August 31, 1997. At the end of the first quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company had
six uniform rental facilities in various stages of construction.

Financial Condition

At August 31, 1997, the Company had $105 million in cash,  cash  equivalents and
marketable  securities.  The Company  believes  that its current cash  position,
funds  anticipated  to be  generated  from  operations  and the  strength of its
banking  relationships  are sufficient to meet its  anticipated  operational and
capital needs requirements.
