NOTE 16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

The Company previously announced that it was pursuing corrective actions in connection with certain corporate acts involving the amendment to the Company’s certificate of incorporation that was approved by Company stockholders on April 23, 2019 (the “2019 Amendment”).  In connection with the 2019 Amendment, the shareholders voted to increase the number of authorized shares of capital stock to 550,500,000 shares, including 550 million shares of common stock and 500,000 shares of preferred stock.   Due to a clerical error, the Certificate of Amendment for the 2019 Amendment was not filed with the Delaware Secretary of State.  The Company filed a petition with the Delaware Chancery Court to deem the 2019 Amendment to be filed on April 23, 2019, and the Court granted the petition on April 23, 2021 resulting in the correction of the technical defects.

On April 27, 2021, shareholders approved an amendment to Rollins, Inc.’s Certificate of Incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock from 550,000,000 shares to 800,000,000 shares. Rollins’ authorized preferred stock will remain the same at 500,000 shares.

On April 27, 2021, the Company announced that the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend on its common stock of $0.08 per share payable on June 10, 2021 to stockholders of record at the close of business May 10, 2021.
