Item 2.02         Results of Operations and Financial Condition

The information in this Item is furnished to, but not filed with, the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") solely under Item 2.02 of Form 8-K,
"Results of Operations and Financial Condition."

On November 1, 2004, G&K Services, Inc. issued a press release announcing its
financial results for the fiscal quarter ended October 2, 2004. A copy of the
press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and is incorporated
herein by reference. The press release contains certain non-GAAP financial
measures, including the organic industrial rental growth rate, organic direct
sale growth rate and free cash flow. The organic growth rates are calculated
using industrial rental and direct sale revenues, respectively, adjusted for
foreign currency exchange rate differences and revenues from newly acquired
locations. Management believes that by eliminating the impact of the
U.S.-Canadian exchange rate and the effects of the Company's recent business
acquisitions, the organic growth rates better reflect the growth of our existing
industrial rental and direct sale business and are therefore useful in analyzing
the financial condition of the Company and the results of its operations. Free
cash flow is cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures.
Management believes that this is an important financial measure because it
indicates the Company's ability to expand, acquire additional business, pursue
debt reduction and pay dividends.
