Data as of 2026-09-08. NYSE, United States. Sector: Consumer Cyclical / Hotels, Restaurants & Leisure. Price $35.86, market value $17.3 billion.

## Valuation
- **P/E (trailing): 32.6×** (5-yr avg 48.2×, 3-yr avg 49.9×). Rollins Inc. trades at 32.6× trailing earnings, well below its own five-year average of 48.2×: cheap by its own standards. The Consumer Cyclical median in the September 2026 study was 19.5×. Forward P/E is 27.6×, lower than trailing, so analysts expect earnings to grow.
- **PEG: 2.04**. A PEG of 2.04 means the P/E is high relative to expected earnings growth; the price already assumes a lot.
- **Price / sales: 4.4×**. Each dollar of revenue is priced at 4.4×.
- **Price / book: 12.1×**. The shares trade at 12.1× book value; most of the value is in earnings power and intangibles rather than the balance sheet.
- **EV / EBITDA: 20.6×**. Enterprise value is 20.6× operating earnings before depreciation, the multiple that ignores how the company is financed; above 20× is demanding.
- **Free-cash-flow yield: 3.6%** (5-yr avg 2.4%). Free cash flow equals 3.6% of the market value, above its five-year average of 2.4%, so the shares are cheaper on cash than they have usually been.
- **Earnings yield: 3.1%**. The inverse of the P/E: 3.1% of the price is earned each year.

## Profitability
- **Operating margin: 18.7%**. 18.7% of revenue is left after running the business, a healthy level in most sectors.
- **Net margin: 14.0%**. 14.0% of each dollar of sales reaches the bottom line.
- **Return on equity: 38.3%**. 38.3% on shareholders' equity is excellent if it is not driven by leverage; sustained above 20% usually signals a competitive advantage.
- **Return on invested capital: 30.7%**. Return on all capital, debt included, is 30.7%: comfortably above what that capital costs.
- **Return on assets: 16.9%**. Each dollar of assets produces 16.9% of profit.

- **EPS growth (1 yr): 13.5%** (3-yr 13.3%/yr, 5-yr 15.1%/yr). Earnings per share rose 13.5%, roughly in step with revenue.
- **Free-cash-flow growth (3 yr): 14.3%/yr**. Free cash flow has compounded at 14.3% a year over three years, keeping pace with earnings: the growth is real cash.

## Financial health

- **Net debt / EBITDA: 0.6×**. It would take 0.6 years of operating earnings to repay net borrowings, within the comfortable range.

- **Consecutive years of increases: 24**. 24 straight years of increases, a record that survived at least one recession.
- **Dividend growth (5 yr): 15.7%/yr** (1-yr 10.2%). The dividend has compounded at 15.7% a year over five years, doubling roughly every 5 years at that pace.
