Solid Company, Proven Track Record, this stock has taken a beating for no reason. Sales force re-org is complete and I expect better results.

Solid financial growth. Valuation looks good. If it breaks above 40 should do quite well.

Wide-moat leader in it's industry. Has leverage over customers and competitors. Major new sales force reorganization underway to promote cross-selling. Will gain further dominance in an economic downturn; has superior acquisition history. Very good management.

CTAS has started a couple of new lines in the last year or so, including paper shredding and steam cleaning public restrooms in larger cities. They are building new and larger plants. Given time, and they will be head and shoulders above their competitors.

Internal growth in document managment will add to earnings with the solid rental divisions maintaining steady earnings.

No longer a growth stock; but should outperform the S&P with a neutral to low growth market.

The uniform company. In my opinion, this would be a TMF Hidden Gem if only it weren't for the company being too far above the $2 billion market cap limit. The stock price looks like a mirror image of earnings over the last couple of years (in other words, as one continues to grow, the other continues to drop). In my opinion it has just dropped too far in the face of ever growing earnings.
The CEO is on the Forbes 400, yet draws less than $1 million per year, including options. His brother only makes $400,000 per year, and this is for a $7 billion company. This company has 15% insider ownership, which is impressive for a company this big. Most of that is owned by the brothers. It gives me a good feeling knowing they "eat their own cooking" as it were.
It's a little harder for me to understand what exactly their moat is and how deep it runs, given their industry, but they must be doing something right. They have constantly growing earnings and an above 15% ROE, so this isn't a commodity business, that much is certain.
I think management agrees, as the company has bought back millions of shares over the last two years, and continues to buy back.
