Ratings Rollins, Inc.: Strengths and Weaknesses

From a short-term investment perspective, the company presents a deteriorated fundamental situation

Highlights: Rollins, Inc.

The company's profit outlook over the next few years is a strong asset.
The company's EBITDA/Sales ratio is relatively high and results in high margins before depreciation, amortization and taxes.
Margins returned by the company are among the highest on the stock exchange list. Its core activity clears big profits.
The average target price set by analysts covering the stock is above current prices and offers a tremendous appreciation potential.

Weaknesses: Rollins, Inc.

With an expected P/E ratio at 31.72 and 28.33 respectively for both the current and next fiscal years, the company operates with high earnings multiples.
The company's "enterprise value to sales" ratio is among the highest in the world.
The company appears highly valued given the size of its balance sheet.
The valuation of the company is particularly high given the cash flows generated by its activity.
The firm pays small or no dividend to shareholders. For that reason, it is not a yield company.
For the last four months, EPS estimates made by Standard & Poor's analysts have been revised downwards.
Most analysts agree on a negative opinion with regard to the stock. Indeed, the average consensus issues recommendations to underperform or sell.
Over the past four months, analysts' average price target has been revised downwards significantly.
The overall consensus opinion of analysts has deteriorated sharply over the past four months.
Sales estimates for the next fiscal years vary from one analyst to another. This clearly highlights a lack of visibility into the company's future activity.
The price targets of analysts who cover the stock differ significantly. This implies difficulties in evaluating the company and its business.

Rating Financials

		Rollins, Inc.	Sector	Germany
Fundamentals	Fundamentals This composite rating is the result of an average of the rankings according to the Growth (Composite), Returns (Composite), Profitability (Composite), Financial Health (Composite) and CAPEX/EBITDA ratings. The company must be covered by at least four of these five ratings for the calculation to be carried out. We recommend that you read the associated descriptions carefully.
Growth	Growth This composite rating is the result of an average of the rankings according to the Revenue growth, EPS growth and FCF growth ratings. If the company is covered by at least two of these three ratings, the calculation is performed. We recommend that you read the associated descriptions carefully.
Revenue growth	Revenue growth This rating is based on the strength, consistency and improvement of the company's revenue growth over a 6-year window (5 growth rates), taking into account both the last 3 completed financial years and the outlook for the next 3 years. The greater the sales growth is in terms of significance, consistency, and improvement, the better the rating.
EPS growth	EPS growth This rating is based on the strength, consistency, and improvement of the company's net earnings per share growth over a 6-year window, taking into account both the last 3 completed financial years and the outlook for the next 3 years. The greater the EPS growth is in terms of significance, consistency, and improvement, the better the rating. Please note that a company can show strong EPS growth even if the EPS itself is negative. Use the Net Margin rating to filter out these cases if they are of no interest to you.
FCF growth	FCF growth This rating is based on the strength, consistency, and improvement of the company's FCF growth over a 6-year window, taking into account both the last 3 completed financial years and the outlook for the next 3 years. The greater the cash flow growth is in terms of significance, consistency, and improvement, the better the rating.
Profitability	Profitability This composite rating is the result of an average of the rankings according to the EBITDA margin, EBIT margin and Net margin ratings. If the company is covered by at least two of these three ratings, the calculation is performed. We recommend that you read the associated descriptions carefully.
EBITDA Margin	EBITDA Margin The EBITDA margin measures the share of revenue remaining after operating expenses, but before depreciation, provisions, interest, and taxes. It is calculated by dividing EBITDA by revenue and expressing the result as a percentage. A higher margin indicates stronger gross operating profitability, regardless of the company’s financial and tax structure.
EBIT Margin	EBIT Margin This rating is based on the level and consistency of the company's EBIT margin over a 4-year window, taking into account both the last 2 completed financial years and the outlook for the next 2 years. The higher and more consistent the EBIT margin, the better the rating.
Net Margin	Net Margin This rating is based on the level and consistency of the company's Net margin over a 4-year window, taking into account both the last 2 completed financial years and the outlook for the next 2 years. The higher and more consistent the Net margin, the better the rating.
Capital Efficiency	Capital Efficiency This composite rating is the result of an average of the rankings according to the ROE, ROA and ROCE ratings. If the company is covered by at least two of these three ratings, the calculation is performed. We recommend that you read the associated descriptions carefully.
ROA	ROA This rating is based on the level and consistency of the company's ROA over a 4-year window, taking into account both the last 2 completed financial years and the outlook for the next 2 years. The higher and more consistent the ROA, the better the rating.
ROCE	ROCE This rating is based on the level and consistency of the company's ROCE over a 4-year window, taking into account both the last 2 completed financial years and the outlook for the next 2 years. The higher and more consistent the ROCE, the better the rating.
ROE	ROE This rating is based on the level and consistency of the company's ROE over a 4-year window, taking into account both the last 2 completed financial years and the outlook for the next 2 years. The higher and more consistent the ROE, the better the rating.
Financial Health	Financial Health This composite rating is the result of an average of the Leverage and Gearing ratings. The company must be covered by both ratings for the calculation to be made.
Gearing	Gearing This rating is based on the company's average Net Debt / Equity ratio for the last published fiscal year, the current one, and the upcoming one. The lower this level, the better the rating.
Leverage	Leverage This rating is based on the company's average Net Debt / EBITDA ratio for the last published fiscal year, the current one, and the upcoming one. The lower this level, the better the rating.
Capital Intensity	Capital Intensity The CAPEX / EBITDA ratio compares capital expenditures with operating earnings as measured by EBITDA. It indicates the company’s capital intensity: the higher the ratio, the larger the share of operating cash flow that must be reinvested to maintain or expand productive capacity. A low ratio, by contrast, suggests less dependence on heavy investments, leaving more room for debt reduction or shareholder returns.

Balance sheet growth	Balance sheet growth This rating is based on the strength, consistency and improvement of the company's total book value growth over a 6-year window (5 growth rates), taking into account both the last 3 completed financial years and the outlook for the next 3 years. The greater the balance sheet growth is in terms of significance, consistency, and improvement, the better the rating.
Long Term balance sheet growth	Long Term balance sheet growth This rating is based on the strength, consistency and improvement of the company's total book value growth over a 13-year window (12 growth rates), taking into account both the last 10 completed financial years and the outlook for the next 3 years.

Long term revenue growth	Long term revenue growth This rating is based on the strength, consistency and improvement of the company's revenue growth over a 13-year window (12 growth rates), taking into account both the last 10 completed financial years and the outlook for the next 3 years. The greater the sales growth is in terms of significance, consistency, and improvement, the better the rating. A key characteristic for investors seeking companies with strong development potential.
Long term EPS growth	Long term EPS growth This rating is based on the strength, consistency and improvement of the company's earnings per share (EPS) growth over a 13-year window (12 growth rates), taking into account both the last 10 completed financial years and the outlook for the next 3 years. The greater the EPS growth is in terms of significance, consistency, and improvement, the better the rating. Please note that a company may display strong EPS growth even if the actual EPS remains negative. Use the Net Margin rating as an additional filter if you wish to exclude such cases.

Rating Valuation

		Rollins, Inc.	Sector	Germany
Global Valuation	Global Valuation This composite rating is the result of an average of the rankings according to the Equity Value (Composite) and Enterprise Value (Composite) ratings.

Enterprise Value	Enterprise Value Enterprise Value reflects the total value of a company from the perspective of a buyer. It equals market capitalization plus net debt (financial debt minus cash). Unlike market cap alone, it accounts for all capital providers — both shareholders and lenders.
EV/Revenue	EV/Revenue This rating is based on the company's average Enterprise Value to Revenue (EV/Revenue) ratio for the last reported fiscal year, the current one, and the upcoming one. For the last fiscal year, the Enterprise Value as of the publication date is used. However, the subsequent ratios are calculated based on Enterprise Value estimates. A lower average EV/Revenue ratio results in a better rating.
EV/EBITDA	EV/EBITDA This rating is based on the company's average Enterprise Value to EBITDA (EV/EBITDA) ratio for the last reported fiscal year, the current one, and the upcoming one. For the last fiscal year, the Enterprise Value as of the publication date is used. However, the subsequent ratios are calculated based on Enterprise Value estimates. A lower average EV/EBITDA ratio results in a better rating.
EV/FCF	EV/FCF This rating is based on the company's average Enterprise Value to Free Cash Flow (EV/FCF) ratio for the last reported fiscal year, the current one, and the upcoming one. For the last fiscal year, the Enterprise Value as of the publication date is used. However, the subsequent ratios are calculated based on Enterprise Value estimates.

Equity Valuation	Equity Valuation This composite rating is the result of an average of the rankings according to the P/E, PBR and dividend yield ratings. If the company is covered by at least two of these three ratings, the calculation is performed. We recommend that you read the associated descriptions carefully.
P/E	P/E This rating is based on the average Price/Earnings (P/E) ratio of the company for the last reported fiscal year, the current one, and the upcoming one. For the last fiscal year, the stock price on the date of the EPS publication is used. However, the following ratios are calculated based on the last known stock price and EPS estimates. The lower the average level, the better the rating.
PBR	PBR The PBR compares a company’s share price to its book value per share, representing shareholders' equity. It indicates how the market values a firm relative to its net assets. However, it's not a reliable metric across industries, since balance sheet structures differ widely.
Dividend Yield	Dividend Yield This rating is based on the level and consistency of the company's dividend yield over a 4-year window, taking into account both the last 2 completed financial years and the outlook for the next 2 years. The higher and more consistent the dividend yield, the better the rating.

EV/EBIT	EV/EBIT This rating is based on the company's average Enterprise Value to EBIT (EV/EBIT) ratio for the last reported fiscal year, the current one, and the upcoming one. For the last fiscal year, the Enterprise Value as of the publication date is used. However, the subsequent ratios are calculated based on Enterprise Value estimates.

CAPEX/Revenue	CAPEX/Revenue This rating is based on the company's average CAPEX / Revenue ratio over a 4-year window, taking into account both the last 2 completed financial years and the outlook for the next 2 years. The lower is the average, the better the rating.
