Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On October 17, 2025, UniFirst Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release (“Press Release”) announcing changes to its reportable segments. Beginning with the fourth quarter and year ended August 30, 2025, the Company will report results under three reportable segments: (1) Uniform & Facility Service Solutions; (2) First Aid & Safety Solutions; and (3) Other. The Company revised its reportable segments to align with how the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker, which is the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, manages the Company’s business, including resource allocation and performance assessment. A copy of the Press Release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

In order to assist investors, the Company has included in Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K certain recast unaudited historical information to provide investors with supplemental financial and operational information that is on a basis consistent with the Company’s revised segment structure. These changes only affect segment allocation of results and do not revise or restate the Company’s previously reported consolidated financial statements or the Company’s previously reported non-GAAP adjustments on a consolidated basis.

The information in this Item 2.02, including the exhibit attached hereto, is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for any purpose, including for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
