Insights

Rollins delivered a solid Q3 2024 with $916 million in revenue, showing 9.0% growth and strong organic revenue growth of 7.7%. The company maintained healthy profitability with operating income of $192 million, though margins slightly contracted by 20 basis points to 20.9%.

Key positives include 15.4% growth in operating cash flow to $147 million and continued investment in acquisitions ($24 million). The 7.7% EPS growth to $0.28 per share demonstrates sustained bottom-line expansion despite margin pressures from growth investments.

While Hurricane Helene impacted operations, management remains confident in achieving double-digit earnings growth for the full year. The planned leadership transition appears well-orchestrated, suggesting operational continuity.

The pest control market remains robust, with Rollins' organic growth at the higher end of guidance despite weather disruptions. The company's strategic focus on growth investments, while pressuring near-term margins, positions it well in a consolidating industry. The gross margin improvement of 20 basis points to 54.0% indicates pricing power and operational efficiency.

The balance between reinvestment and shareholder returns remains healthy, with $73 million paid in dividends while maintaining acquisition activity. The leadership succession plan, moving Gary Rollins to Executive Chairman Emeritus, demonstrates strong corporate governance and thoughtful transition planning.

Management Commentary

"Our team delivered a strong third quarter with organic revenue growth of 7.7 percent, at the high end of the 7 percent to 8 percent range that we have discussed for the year, despite some disruption to operations from Hurricane Helene that occurred during the last week of the quarter," said Jerry Gahlhoff, Jr., President and CEO. "Our thoughts are with all of those that have been impacted by recent hurricanes. Our teams have worked together to support our teammates and communities in the aftermath of these natural disasters, and our efforts will continue in the days, weeks, and months ahead. I would like to thank our team for their ongoing commitment to our customers and to each other," Mr. Gahlhoff added.

"We continue to invest in our team and other resources aimed at capitalizing on a healthy market environment to drive further growth in our business," said Kenneth Krause, Executive Vice President and CFO. "The 20 basis points of leverage in our gross margin was offset by growth investments that tempered our overall margin performance in the quarter but will support our long-term objectives. We are on track to deliver healthy margin improvement and double-digit earnings growth for the year," Mr. Krause concluded.

Board Leadership Transition

Additionally, today the Company announces that effective January 1, 2025, Gary W. Rollins, 80, will transition from Executive Chairman of the Board to Executive Chairman Emeritus in accordance with its long-planned leadership succession goals. Gary will be succeeded by John F. Wilson, the current Vice Chairman, as Executive Chairman of the Board.   

"I have had the pleasure of working closely with John since he joined our Company in 1996. I look forward to supporting him as he transitions to this important leadership role, as I will remain an active and engaged member of our exceptional Board of Directors," said Gary W. Rollins, Executive Chairman of the Board.

"On behalf of the Board of Directors, we congratulate John on his new role and look forward to working with him, Gary, and the entire management team as we guide the business into its next phase of growth," said Louise S. Sams, the Company's Lead Independent Director.

APPENDIX

Reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has used the non-GAAP financial measures of organic revenues, organic revenues by type, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share ("EPS"), earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), EBITDA margin, Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, incremental EBITDA margin, adjusted incremental EBITDA margin, free cash flow, free cash flow conversion, net debt, net leverage ratio, and adjusted sales, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") in this earnings release. Organic revenue is calculated as revenue less the revenue from acquisitions completed within the prior 12 months and excluding the revenue from divested businesses. Acquisition revenue is based on the trailing 12-month revenue of our acquired entities. Adjusted operating income and adjusted operating income margin are calculated by adding back to the GAAP measures those expenses resulting from the amortization of certain intangible assets, adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration resulting from the acquisition of Fox, and restructuring costs related to restructuring and workforce reduction plans. Adjusted net income and adjusted EPS are calculated by adding back to the GAAP measure amortization of certain intangible assets, adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration resulting from the acquisition of Fox, and restructuring costs related to restructuring and workforce reduction plans, and excluding gains and losses on the sale of non-operational assets and by further subtracting the tax impact of those expenses, gains, or losses. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are calculated by adding back to the GAAP measures those expenses resulting from the adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration resulting from the acquisition of Fox, restructuring costs related to restructuring and workforce reduction plans, and excluding gains and losses on the sale of non-operational assets. Incremental EBITDA margin is calculated as the change in EBITDA divided by the change in revenue. Adjusted incremental EBITDA margin is calculated as the change in adjusted EBITDA divided by the change in revenue. Free cash flow is calculated by subtracting capital expenditures from cash provided by operating activities. Free cash flow conversion is calculated as free cash flow divided by net income. Net debt is calculated as total long-term debt less cash and cash equivalents. Net leverage ratio is calculated by dividing net debt by trailing twelve-month EBITDA. Adjusted SG&A is calculated by removing the adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration resulting from the acquisition of Fox. These measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for revenues, net income, earnings per share or other performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Management uses adjusted operating income, adjusted operating income margin, adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, incremental EBITDA margin, adjusted incremental EBITDA margin, and adjusted SG&A as measures of operating performance because these measures allow the Company to compare performance consistently over various periods. Management also uses organic revenues, and organic revenues by type to compare revenues over various periods excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures. Management uses free cash flow to demonstrate the Company's ability to maintain its asset base and generate future cash flows from operations. Management uses free cash flow conversion to demonstrate how much net income is converted into cash. Management uses net debt as an assessment of overall liquidity, financial flexibility, and leverage. Net leverage ratio is useful to investors because it is an indicator of our ability to meet our future financial obligations. Management believes all of these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to provide investors with information about current trends in, and period-over-period comparisons of, the Company's results of operations. An analysis of any non-GAAP financial measure should be used in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP.

A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that either 1) excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding amounts, that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in the statement of operations, balance sheet or statement of cash flows, or 2) includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of including amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented.

Set forth below is a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used in this earnings release with their most directly comparable GAAP measures.

(1) Consists of expenses resulting from the amortization of certain intangible assets and adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration resulting from the acquisition of Fox. While we exclude such expenses in this non-GAAP measure, the revenue from the acquired company is reflected in this non-GAAP measure and the acquired assets contribute to revenue generation.

(2) Restructuring costs consist of costs primarily related to severance and benefits paid to employees pursuant to restructuring and workforce reduction plans.

(3) Consists of the gain or loss on the sale of non-operational assets.

(4) The tax effect of the adjustments is calculated using the applicable statutory tax rates for the respective periods.

(5) In some cases, the sum of the individual EPS amounts may not equal total non-GAAP EPS calculations due to rounding.

(6) In the first quarter of 2024, we revised the non-GAAP metrics adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, and adjusted EBITDA to exclude gains and losses related to non-operational asset sales. These measures are of operating performance and we believe excluding the gains and losses on non-operational assets allows us to better compare our operating performance consistently over various periods. Refer to our first quarter 2024 press release for fully revised quarterly metrics.
