Randall Rollins commented, "This occasion is truly a milestone in the history of our company. When we listed on the Exchange 40 years ago, we were a much smaller company with $106 million in revenues; this year revenues will exceed $1 billion. Over this period, Orkin Pest Control, the industry's number one brand, has been a major contributor to our success. In recent years we have continued to build our residential and commercial pest control businesses, both organically and through significant acquisitions in the U.S. and Canada. Since our listing on the NYSE in 1968, there have been two additional NYSE companies created as an offshoot from Rollins, Inc.

"We are extremely grateful to our dedicated management team and extraordinary employees and customers that have made these accomplishments possible."

A live webcast of the event can be accessed on the home page of the New York Stock Exchange beginning at 3:59 p.m. at www.nyse.com.
