Rollins reported unaudited third quarter 2026 results, with revenue up 6.2% to $1.1 billion while operating income, net income and EPS declined from the prior year. Management said residential customer acquisition remained under pressure and that the company is shifting its marketing spend.
Q3 revenue was $1.1 billion, up 6.2%; organic revenue rose 4.4%.
Q3 operating income was $223 million, down 1.0%, and operating margin was 20.5%, down 140 basis points.

Rollins reported unaudited second-quarter 2026 results, with revenue up 7.9% to $1.1 billion and diluted EPS of $0.30 versus $0.29. The company said results fell short of its expectations because lead volume declined in parts of its residential pest control business, and operating margin fell 110 basis points to 18.7%. Shareholders get higher sales and profit, but weaker margins and lower operating cash flow.

Rollins said CFO Kenneth Krause will resign effective June 15, 2026, to pursue another opportunity, and the board appointed Chief Accounting Officer William Harkins as Executive Vice President and CFO on the same date. The filing says Krause's resignation does not involve any disagreement with the company on operations, policies, or practices. A CFO change at a company of this size is a notable governance event for shareholders, though the filing gives no financial results.
