ATLANTA, GEORGIA, July 24, 2019: Rollins, Inc. (NYSE:ROL), a premier global consumer and commercial services company, reported unaudited financial results for its second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2019.

 

The Company recorded second quarter revenues of $524.0 million, an increase of 9.1% over the prior year’s second quarter revenue of $480.5 million. Rollins’ reported net income of $64.3 million or $0.20 per diluted share for the second quarter ended June 30, 2019, compared to $65.5 million or $0.20 per diluted share for the same period in 2018.

 

Rollins’ adjusted earnings per share (EPS)* removing several costs and expenses increased $0.01 for the quarter totaling $0.21 per diluted share. Adjusted EPS* impacts net income for the negative impact of foreign currency exchange expenses and acquisition expense related to the Clark acquisition.

 

Rollins’ revenues rose 7.2% for the first six months of 2019 to $953.0 million compared to $889.2 million for the prior year. Net income for the first six months of 2019 was $108.5 million or $0.33 per diluted share, compared to $114.1 million or $0.35 per diluted share for the same period last year.

 

Gary W. Rollins, Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Rollins, Inc. stated, “We continue to make investments in our company and are confident that these strategies and action plans will enable us to improve our margins and market share, and grow at a faster pace than our industry.”

APPENDIX

 

Reconciliation of GAAP and non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The Company has used the non-GAAP financial measure of Adjusted EPS in today’s earnings release. This measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

 

The Company uses Adjusted EPS as a measure of operating performance because it allows us to compare performance consistently over various periods without regard to fluctuations in currency valuations and the impact of the Clark acquisition on specific line item expenses enumerated in the table below.

 

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 Adjusted EPS with net income, the most comparable GAAP measure.
