FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

ROLLINS, INC. REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2017

RECORD FINANCIAL RESULTS

Company posts 44^th consecutive quarter of improved revenues and earnings 

Adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-09 Contributes to Higher Net Income

ATLANTA, GEORGIA, April 26, 2017: Rollins, Inc. (NYSE:ROL), a premier global consumer and commercial services company, reported strong unaudited financial results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2017.

The Company recorded first quarter revenues of $375.2 million, an increase of 6.4% over the prior year’s first quarter revenue of $352.7 million. Rollins’ net income increased 26.1% to $40.3 million or $0.18 per diluted share for the first quarter ended March 31, 2017, compared to $31.9 million or $0.15 per diluted share for the same period in 2016.

A portion of the Company’s higher net income was due to a tax benefit of approximately $4.3 million as result of adoption of the Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-09. This update was recently issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board, addressing the accounting for employee share-based payments in the first quarter 2017. Excluding this tax benefits in the first quarter, net income increased approximately 12.7% to $36.0 million or $0.17 per diluted share. See Appendix A for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure.

Gary W. Rollins, Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Rollins, Inc. stated, “We were pleased to have reported solid year-over-year improvement in both revenue and net income for the first quarter. We are continuing to invest in our business and are looking forward to reporting our results of the important second quarter.”

This release contains statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include statements about the Company’s continuing to invest in its business and looking forward to reporting results of the important second quarter. The actual results of the Company could differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements because of various risks and uncertainties, including without limitation, economic and competitive conditions which may adversely affect the Company’s business; the degree of success of the Company’s pest and termite process, and pest control selling and treatment methods; the Company’s ability to identify and integrate potential acquisitions; climate and weather trends; competitive factors and pricing practices; the Company’s ability to attract and retain skilled workers, and potential increases in labor costs; uncertainties of litigation; and changes in various government laws and regulations, including environmental regulations.

Appendix A

Rollins has used the non-GAAP financial measure of earnings excluding the tax benefit of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 addressing the accounting of employee share-based payments in its first quarter 2017 earnings press release, and anticipates using earnings excluding the tax benefit of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 in today’s earnings conference call. Earnings excluding the tax benefit of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, net income or other performance measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Rollins uses Earnings excluding the tax benefit of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 as a measure of operating performance because it allows us to compare performance consistently over various periods without regard to changes in our capital structure. 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 Earnings excluding the tax benefit of the adoption of ASU 2016-09 with Net Income, the most comparable GAAP measure. This reconciliation also appears on Rollins’ investor website, which can be found on the Internet at www.rollins.com.
