2026 Financial Outlook
For 2026, the Company anticipates:
- The underlying health of core pest control markets, as well as Rollins' ongoing commitment to operational execution, should support another year of organic growth, further complemented by a strategic and disciplined approach to acquisitions.
- A focus on pricing, ongoing modernization efforts, and a culture of continuous improvement should support an improving margin profile.
- Compounding cash flow and strong balance sheet should continue to enable a balanced capital allocation strategy.
Management Commentary
"We delivered solid financial results in 2025 and made important progress on a number of key initiatives. Our underlying markets remain healthy, customer and teammate retention rates are strong, and we are confident that nothing has fundamentally changed with respect to our consumer. We continue to invest meaningfully in our business and are well-positioned as we begin 2026. I'd like to thank our teammates for their hard work and dedication to our customers, as well as each other," said Jerry Gahlhoff, President and CEO.
"We are pleased with the double-digit revenue, earnings, and cash flow growth we delivered for the year, despite the negative impact that erratic weather patterns had on our business in the fourth quarter, specifically on one-time business and seasonal work across all three service offerings in certain pockets of the country. Our recurring base of business and ancillary service line, which represents over 80 percent of total revenue, grew over 7 percent organically for both the quarter and the year. This growth was partially offset by declines in one-time business during the fourth quarter versus last year, which we view as transitory. We believe that the stability of growth in our recurring and ancillary businesses, coupled with ongoing modernization efforts, position us to deliver on our financial outlook for 2026 and beyond. We continue to execute a balanced capital allocation program enabled by compounding cash flow and a strong balance sheet," said Kenneth Krause, Executive Vice President and CFO.

APPENDIX
Reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP Financial Measures
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.
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 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.
The Company has used the following non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release:
Organic revenues
Organic revenues are calculated as revenues less the revenues from acquisitions completed within the prior 12 months and excluding the revenues from divested businesses. Acquisition revenues are based on the trailing 12-month revenue of our acquired entities. Management uses organic revenues, and organic revenues by type to compare revenues over various periods excluding the impact of acquisitions and divestitures.
Adjusted operating income and adjusted operating margin
Adjusted operating income and adjusted operating margin are calculated by adding back to operating income those expenses associated with the amortization of intangible assets and adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration resulting from the acquisitions of Fox Pest Control and Saela Pest Control. Adjusted operating margin is calculated as adjusted operating income divided by revenues. Management uses adjusted operating income and adjusted operating margin as measures of operating performance because these measures allow the Company to compare performance consistently over various periods.
Adjusted net income and adjusted EPS
Adjusted net income and adjusted EPS are calculated by adding back to the GAAP measures amortization of intangible assets and adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration resulting from the acquisitions of Fox Pest Control and Saela Pest Control, excluding gains and losses on the sale of non-operational assets and gains on the sale of businesses, and by further subtracting the tax impact of those expenses, gains, or losses. Management uses adjusted net income and adjusted EPS as measures of operating performance because these measures allow the Company to compare performance consistently over various periods.
EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, incremental EBITDA margin and adjusted incremental EBITDA margin
EBITDA is calculated by adding back to net income depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, and provision for income taxes. EBITDA margin is calculated as EBITDA divided by revenues. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are calculated by further adding back those expenses associated with the adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration resulting from the acquisitions of Fox Pest Control and Saela Pest Control, and excluding gains and losses on the sale of non-operational assets and gains on the sale of businesses. Management uses EBITDA, EBITDA margin, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin as measures of operating performance because these measures allow the Company to compare performance consistently over various periods. Incremental EBITDA margin is calculated as the change in EBITDA divided by the change in revenue. Management uses incremental EBITDA margin as a measure of operating performance because this measure allows the Company to compare performance consistently over various periods. Adjusted incremental EBITDA margin is calculated as the change in adjusted EBITDA divided by the change in revenue. Management uses adjusted incremental EBITDA margin as a measure of operating performance because this measure allows the Company to compare performance consistently over various periods.
Free cash flow, free cash flow conversion, adjusted free cash flow, and adjusted free cash flow conversion
Free cash flow is calculated by subtracting capital expenditures from cash provided by operating activities. Management uses free cash flow to demonstrate the Company's ability to maintain its asset base and generate future cash flows from operations. Free cash flow conversion is calculated as free cash flow divided by net income. Adjusted free cash flow is calculated by adding back to cash provided by operating activities the impact of certain delayed income tax payments. Adjusted free cash flow conversion is calculated as adjusted free cash flow divided by net income.
Management uses free cash flow conversion and adjusted free cash flow conversion to demonstrate how much net income is converted into cash. Management believes that free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are important financial measures for use in evaluating the Company's liquidity. Free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Additionally, the Company's definition of free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow is limited, in that it does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary expenditures, due to the fact that the measure does not deduct the payments required for debt service and other contractual obligations or payments made for business acquisitions. Therefore, management believes it is important to view free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow as measures that provide supplemental information to our consolidated statements of cash flows.
Adjusted sales, general and administrative ("SG&A")
Adjusted SG&A is calculated by removing the adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration resulting from the acquisitions of Fox Pest Control and Saela Pest Control. Management uses adjusted SG&A to compare SG&A expenses consistently over various periods.
Leverage ratio
Leverage ratio, a financial valuation measure, is calculated by dividing adjusted net debt by adjusted EBITDAR. Adjusted net debt is calculated by adding short-term debt and operating lease liabilities to total long-term debt less a cash adjustment of 90% of total consolidated cash. Adjusted EBITDAR is calculated by adding back to net income depreciation and amortization, interest expense, net, provision for income taxes, operating lease cost, and stock-based compensation expense. Management uses leverage ratio as an assessment of overall liquidity, financial flexibility, and leverage.
