Gary W. Rollins, Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Rollins, Inc. stated, "We are pleased to have completed our 50th consecutive quarter of improved revenue and earnings. The weather in some of the eastern U.S. was very challenging; however, our people took extreme measures to provide services to most of those customers impacted. We are so proud of our team and their willingness to go the extra mile.

On August 10, we celebrated our company's 50th year on the New York Stock Exchange. This was an especially historic occasion since our Chairman, R. Randall Rollins, and Lead Director, Henry B. Tippie were on hand at the initial listing, and for this anniversary. I want to thank them, our employees and shareholders for their support and contribution to our success during those past 50 years."
