Rollins, Inc. 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.

These forward-looking statements include statements about the Company's confidence that its investment strategies and action plans will enable it to continue to improve its margins and market share and grow at a faster pace than its industry.  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; changes in various government laws and regulations, including environmental regulations; and the impact of the U.

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.
