Rollins: John F. Wilson to become Executive Chairman effective Jan. 1, 2025
Rollins said John F. Wilson will move from Vice Chairman to Executive Chairman of the Board effective January 1, 2025, and Gary W. Rollins will move from Executive Chairman to Executive Chairman Emeritus on the same date. The filing sets new pay for both men, which shareholders can review for how the leadership transition is compensated.
Key points
- Wilson's compensation includes a $500,000 restricted stock grant that vests annually over three years and an annual salary of $600,000, both tied to the January 1, 2025 transition.
- The Human Capital and Compensation Committee approved Wilson's grant and salary on December 10, 2024.
- Gary W. Rollins's salary will stay at his current 2025 level, but he will not receive equity incentives or performance-based cash incentives starting January 1, 2025.
