Romex Pest Control Acquisition
On April 1, 2026, the Company acquired 100% of Romex Pest Control, LLC ("Romex") for $95.7 million. The Company funded this acquisition using cash on hand and borrowings under the commercial paper program.
The acquisition expanded the Rollins family of brands, and management believes the acquisition will drive long-term value given Romex's attractive financial profile and complementary end market exposure.
The Romex acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination, and Romex's results of operations are included in the Company's operations from the acquisition date. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, Romex contributed revenues and net earnings of $10.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively.
The valuation of the Romex acquisition was performed by a third party valuation specialist under management’s supervision. The preliminary values of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of June 30, 2026 are summarized as follows:

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed$95,717 
Included in the total consideration above are cash payments of $85.5 million made upon closing, contingent consideration valued at $5.2 million that is based on Romex's expected financial performance in the two years following the acquisition, and holdback liabilities valued at $5.0 million to be held by the Company to settle indemnity claims and purchase price adjustments. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we recognized a charge of $0.9 million related to adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration resulting from the acquisition of Romex. This charge is reported in sales, general and administrative expenses on our condensed consolidated statement of income.
The acquired Romex customer contracts are estimated to have a remaining useful life of 9.5 years. The acquired trademarks and tradenames are expected to have an indefinite useful life. See Note 6, Goodwill and Intangible Assets, for further details.
Goodwill from this acquisition represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets of the business acquired. The factors contributing to the amount of goodwill are based on strategic and synergistic benefits that are expected to be realized. The recognized goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
