Description: VSTS Vestis November 16, 2025
Vestis Corporation (NYSE: VSTS) rents and manages uniforms and workplace supplies across the United States and Canada, offering a broad catalog that includes apparel such as shirts, pants, scrubs, flame-resistant and particulate-free garments, as well as shoes, accessories, and ancillary items like restroom supplies, first-aid kits, floor mats, towels, and linens. Its customer base spans manufacturing, hospitality, retail, food processing, pharmaceuticals, healthcare, automotive, and cleanroom sectors.
Key operating metrics that analysts watch include its FY 2024 revenue of roughly $1.2 billion, a 4.5 % year-over-year increase driven by higher contract renewals in the healthcare and cleanroom segments, and an adjusted EBITDA margin hovering near 12 %, reflecting efficient asset utilization in a capital-intensive rental model. The business is sensitive to labor-cost inflation and the broader trend toward “as-a-service” procurement, which has been accelerating as firms seek to reduce capital outlays and improve inventory turnover.
