ROLLINS, INC. REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2020 FINANCIAL RESULTS

 

·Revenue increased 13.7% for the quarter
·Rollins deemed “essential service” by Department of Homeland Security
·Rollins launches Orkin VitalClean– Powerful New Disinfectant Business

 

ATLANTA, GEORGIA, April 29, 2020: Rollins, Inc. (NYSE:ROL), a premier global consumer and commercial services company, reported strong unaudited financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2020.

 

The Company recorded first quarter revenues of $487.9 million, an increase of 13.7% over the prior year’s first quarter revenue of $429.1 million. Rollins reported net income of $43.3 million or $0.13 per diluted share in the first quarter that ended March 31, 2020, compared to $44.2 million or $0.14 per diluted share for the same period in 2019.

 

In light of the global response and impact of COVID-19, Rollins, Inc. has made significant operational adjustments as a result of the changing economic situation. With pest control being deemed as an essential service by the Department of Homeland Security, the Company has been able to remain operational in every part of the world in which it operates.

 

The safety of our employees and customers is a prime consideration. To protect their health, we have adopted numerous safety initiatives, such as; providing personal protective equipment (PPE) for our technicians (masks, booties, gloves, coveralls, etc.). We have also complied with recommended actions to disinfect our equipment and facilities, increase social distancing, and provide contact-free services.

 

As announced earlier, our Orkin brand launched a new disinfectant service for businesses – VitalClean™, which uses an EPA-registered disinfectant. This material has low toxicity and is labeled for use against a wide variety of pathogens, including other known coronaviruses.

 

Gary W. Rollins, Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Rollins, Inc. stated, “It is difficult to know when the economy might rebound and the financial crisis will end; however we have taken proactive steps including but not limited to furloughs, selected pay reductions, and the reduction of non-essential expenses. In addition to our launch of VitalClean in our commercial branches, we are entering into our termite and mosquito seasons, which will provide revenue building opportunities. We are well positioned to adjust our business further if necessary, to meet the unique challenges we may face.”
