Is UNF overbought or oversold?
At the October 15, 2026 close, UNF's RSI(14) was 50.4, in neutral territory (between 30 and 70). The MACD histogram was positive, so short-term momentum leaned bullish at that close. These readings are historical, refresh daily after market close, and are not investment advice.
With $192.1M in cash and $81.1M in debt, UNF maintains more liquidity than leverage. This favorable balance sheet position can be an asset when capital markets become less accommodating. Annual free cash flow of $62.6M supports ongoing capital allocation decisions and provides a cushion against unexpected expenses or downturns. Return on equity stands at 5.0%, which is modest for the sector. ROE measures how effectively a company uses shareholder capital to generate profits. ROA of 3.0% is on the lower side, which is common in asset-heavy industries. Revenue has grown from $2.00B (2022) to $2.43B (2025), reflecting a 22% increase over the period.
UNF's low beta indicates it tends to be less volatile than the broader market, which may suit investors seeking more stable price behavior. The strong cash position relative to debt provides a financial cushion that reduces balance sheet risk. Understanding these risk dimensions helps frame what to watch going forward as conditions evolve for UniFirst Corporation and its sector.
