FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ROLLINS, INC. REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR 2021 FINANCIAL RESULTS

ATLANTA, GEORGIA, January 26, 2022: Rollins, Inc. (NYSE:ROL) (“Rollins” or the “Company”), a premier global consumer and commercial services company, reported strong unaudited financial results for its fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2021.

The Company recorded fourth quarter revenues of $600.3 million, an increase of 11.9% over the prior year’s fourth quarter revenue of $536.3 million. The Company’s reported net income was $65.3 million or $0.13 per diluted share for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to $62.6 million or $0.13 per diluted share for the same period in 2020. Adjusted net income* and adjusted earnings per diluted share* for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2021 were $70.3 million and $0.14 per diluted share, respectively. The fourth quarter results have been adjusted to exclude the recorded accrual by the Company of $5.0 million related to the potential settlement of the ongoing Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) matter. The Company will continue to cooperate with the SEC in working towards a final resolution.

For the full year ended December 31, 2021, the Company’s revenues rose 12.2% to $2.424 billion compared to $2.161 billion for the prior year. The Company reported net income of $350.7 million or $0.71 per diluted share compared to $260.8 million or $0.53 per diluted share for the prior year. Adjusted net income* and adjusted earnings per diluted share* for the full year 2021 were $335.5 million and $0.68, respectively, compared to $267.5 million and $0.54 per diluted share for the prior year. The results for 2021 have been adjusted for the gain related to the disposition of the properties received through the 2019 acquisition of Clark Pest Control of Stockton, Inc. of $31.5 million ($23.2 million net of tax) and the accrual of $8.0 million related to the potential settlement of the ongoing SEC matter. The results for the year ended December 31, 2020 included a one-time non-cash expense of $6.7 million for the accelerated restricted stock vesting for our late Chairman, R. Randall Rollins.

Gary W. Rollins, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Rollins stated, “We are proud of the performance and dedication of our employees and are very pleased with our strong financial results for both the quarter and full year 2021. We remain confident of our continued success for 2022.”

Any or all forward-looking statements may turn out to be wrong, and, accordingly, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release. Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties that are difficult to predict and are not guarantees of future performance. Among the general factors that could cause actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements and estimated results and financial condition are those factors listed in periodic reports filed by Rollins with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which factors include, but are not limited to, the Company’s belief that its accounting estimates and assumptions, financial condition and results of operations may change materially in future periods in response to the COVID-19 pandemic; the Company’s belief that it will continue to be involved in various claims, arbitrations, contractual disputes, investigations, and regulatory and litigation matters relating to, and arising out of, its business and its operations; the outcomes of any pending or potential claim, proceeding, litigation, regulatory action or investigation filed against us, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, including, but not limited to, the Company’s ongoing SEC investigation; the Company’s belief that the ongoing SEC investigation is primarily focused on how it established accruals and reserves at period-ends and the impact of those accruals and reserves on reported earnings per share, and the Company’s inability to predict the outcome of the SEC investigation, or the possibility that the ultimate amount of potential liability could be different from the amount accrued under ASC 450; the Company’s belief, after consultation with the Audit Committee and independent counsel, that its financial statements filed with the SEC on Forms 10-K and 10-Q for the relevant periods under SEC investigation fairly present in all material respects, its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of their respective balance sheet dates and for the periods then ended; the Company’s evaluation of pending or threatened claims and establishment of loss contingency reserves based upon outcomes it currently believes to be probable and estimable; risks related to the Company’s belief that its current cash and cash equivalent balances, future cash flows expected to be generated from operating activities and available borrowings under its credit facilities will be sufficient to finance its current operations and obligations, and fund expansion of the business for the foreseeable future; the Company’s belief that it maintains adequate liquidity and capital resources that are directed to finance domestic operations and obligations and to fund expansion of its domestic business for the foreseeable future without regard to its foreign deposits; exposure of certain market risks in the ordinary course of our business, including fluctuation in interest rates and foreign currency exchange fluctuations; the Company’s ability to identify and successfully integrate potential acquisitions or guarantee that any acquisitions will achieve the anticipated financial benefits adverse economic conditions, including restrictions in customer discretionary expenditures, disruptions in credit or financial markets, increases in fuel prices, raw material costs, or other operating costs; labor shortages and/or our ability to attract and retain skilled workers;  significant disruption in, or breach in security of our information technology systems or one of our third-party information technology providers, and resultant interruptions in service or the loss of functionality of critical systems through ransomware or other malware, and any related impact on our reputation; the Company’s expectation that it will continue to pay cash dividends to common stockholders, subject to the earnings and financial condition of the Company and other relevant factors; risks related to changes in industry practices or technologies; the Company’s ability to protect its intellectual property and other proprietary rights; competitive factors and pricing practices; damage to our brand or reputation; and climate and weather conditions.

APPENDIX

Reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has used the non-GAAP financial measures of adjusted net income and adjusted EPS in this earnings release, and the non-GAAP financial measures of organic revenues, organic revenues by type, organic revenues in constant dollars, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow in today’s conference call. Organic revenue is calculated as revenue less acquisition revenue. Acquisition revenue is based on the trailing 12-month revenue of our acquired entities. 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 net income, adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA as measures of operating performance because these measures allow the Company to compare performance consistently over various periods without regard to the impact of the property disposition gains, the accelerated stock vesting expense or the SEC matter. Management also uses organic revenues, organic revenues by type and organic revenues in constant dollars to compare revenues over various periods excluding the impact of acquisitions and the change in foreign currency rates. Management uses free cash flow, which is calculated as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, to demonstrate the Company’s ability to maintain its asset base and generate future cash flows from operations. 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.

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 non-GAAP financial measures used in today’s earnings release and conference call with their most comparable GAAP measures.
