Rollins ROL
Rollins scores good on business quality (7.4 of 10). Here is why, in plain words, and what our sealed record shows.
Why it matters
- What Rollins does
Rollins provides pest and termite control services to residential and commercial customers through well-known brands like Orkin, generating recurring subscription-like revenue from recurring service visits.
- What it does best
Rollins delivers exceptional route density that drives a gross margin of 52.4%, outperforming peers like CLH at 32.3%. This density makes new route additions highly accretive and nearly impossible for competitors to replicate without decades of local scale.
- The main risk
Valuation stands as the primary vulnerability, with the stock trading well above its intrinsic value of $24.38. Any stumble in the steady 10.9% revenue growth rate could trigger a sharp multiple contraction.
Quality, check by check
Scored against its own industry, from company filings.
Operating margins hold at 18.7% with a robust ROE of 37.2%, reflecting strong pricing power and high capital efficiency as route density scales.
The brand-driven switching cost moat locks in residential and commercial customers, supported by a top-decile return on equity of 37.2%.
Revenue grew 11.0% to $3.9 billion, extending a consistent multi-year expansion trend visible across annual results.
Debt-to-equity sits at 0.4x with $510 million of net debt, backed by $619 million in free cash flow, keeping financial stability solid.
Insiders
