ROLLINS INC represents a hold based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
Our model assigns ROLLINS INC a Hold rating, with a composite score of 62.9/100 and 3 out of 5 stars. Ranked #433 of 7,333 stocks, ROL presents a mixed quantitative picture — neither compelling enough to initiate new positions nor weak enough to warrant selling. Investors already holding may consider maintaining their position while monitoring for changes in the factor profile.
ROL earns a quality score of 73/100, indicating above-average business quality. The company reports a return on equity of 39.8% (sector avg: 5.7%), gross margins of 54.0% (sector avg: 64.6%), net margins of 14.5% (sector avg: 2.8%). Companies in this tier generally demonstrate consistent profitability and efficient capital deployment, though they may face some competitive pressure.
ROL's value score of 52/100 indicates the stock is fairly valued based on its current fundamentals. Key valuation metrics include a P/E ratio of 53.94x, an EV/EBITDA of 34.15x, a P/B ratio of 21.48x. At this level, neither a clear bargain nor overpriced, the stock's attractiveness depends more on forward growth expectations and qualitative factors.
ROLLINS INC's investment score of 31/100 suggests limited reinvestment activity. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 15.0% vs. a sector average of 8.6% and a return on assets of 17.4% (sector: 2.4%). While this can be positive for mature, cash-generative businesses returning capital to shareholders, it may also signal a lack of growth opportunities or management conservatism.
ROL shows strong momentum characteristics with a score of 77/100. The stock has been trending above key moving averages, indicating solid demand from institutional buyers. Revenue growth stands at 15.0% year-over-year, while a beta of 0.31 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. This level of momentum typically signals sustained investor confidence and favorable near-term price action.
ROLLINS INC earns an excellent stability score of 89/100, reflecting low price volatility and a conservatively managed balance sheet. Key stability metrics include a beta of 0.31 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 35.00x (sector avg: 0.3x). Stocks with this level of stability tend to act as portfolio anchors, providing downside protection during market corrections while still participating in broad market advances.
The short interest score of 58/100 for ROL suggests somewhat elevated bearish positioning by institutional traders. Specific risk factors include elevated leverage (D/E: 35.00x). With a $28.5B market cap (large-cap), ROLLINS INC may experience above-average volatility. Investors should consider whether the short thesis has merit or if it creates a potential short-squeeze opportunity.
ROL offers a modest dividend yield of 1.1%. While the income contribution is relatively small, even a small dividend signals management's commitment to shareholder returns and can serve as a signal of financial discipline.
ROLLINS INC is a large-cap company in the Services sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #433 of 7,333 overall (94th percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of 39.8% exceeding the 5.7% sector median and operating margins of 20.0% above the 4.5% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Services peers.
While ROL currently exhibits a HOLD profile, superior opportunities exist within the SERVICES sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.

Rollins (ROL) is considered a Hold due to its premium valuation and sensitivity to earnings misses, despite strong growth and financials in 2025. The company delivered double-digit revenue, EPS, and FCF growth, but a slight miss led to a 15% stock drop. For 2026, Rollins expects 7-8% organic and 2-3% M&A-driven revenue growth, with opportunities in the fragmented pest control market.

BofA Securities has reinstated coverage on Rollins Inc. (NYSE:ROL) with a "buy" rating and a price target of $67.00, suggesting a 12% upside, though InvestingPro data indicates it may be trading above its Fair Value. The firm highlights Rollins' strong growth algorithm, combining organic expansion with strategic acquisitions, allowing it to dominate the fragmented pest control industry. Despite a recent miss on Q4 2025 earnings, BofA remains confident in Rollins' ability to achieve high-single-digit revenue growth and improve EBITDA margins through cost optimization.

Rollins, Inc. (NYSE: ROL) experienced an 11% annual revenue growth in 2025, reaching $3.76 billion, but its shares fell over 13% after missing Q4 2025 Wall Street estimates. The pest control company reported lower-than-expected Q4 revenue and adjusted EPS, with operating margins narrowing due to rising costs. Management attributed some of the quarterly shortfall to volatile weather impacting seasonal work, though recurring revenue streams remained strong.

Rollins, Inc. (NYSE:ROL) shares tumbled 16.8% in after-hours trading after reporting fourth-quarter results that missed analyst expectations for adjusted earnings per share and revenue. Despite this, the company achieved its 24th consecutive year of revenue growth and reported strong full-year 2025 results with increased revenue and adjusted net income. Management remains optimistic for 2026, anticipating continued organic growth and an improving margin profile.
