A Deal of Industrial Logic: • Playing to each other’s strengths - Terminix’s expertise in Termite & Residential, and Rentokil’s expertise and global strength in Commercial. • Adds scale in the US + smaller operations incl. Canada, Mexico, Honduras, Sweden, Spain, Ireland. • Attractive financial profile. • More balanced portfolio - with Residential & Termite 60% of revenues, Commercial 40%. • Very similar operating model - culture and values, focus on colleagues & customers. • Creates value for shareholders. 8

 

 

9 Colleagues: Employer of Choice • By combining we will continue our progress on our journey as an employer of choice – eg further investment in training and sharing best practices to support colleagues. • Committed to internal promotions and giving people the opportunity to build long - term careers while moving through the larger organisation. • Further improve the colleague and customer experience - continued investment in IT, digital and tools to get the job done. • Commitment to main centres of both companies eg Reading, Memphis, Charlotte, etc.

 

 

10 Colleagues: Employer of Choice/2  Today, it’s business as usual. They remain a competitor. This may take several months to Complete.  Post Completion, over the following three years there will be some changes, for instance to US properties and technologies as we align.  Role overlaps - over the three years, whilst there will be some reduction in duplicate roles, the vast majority of these will come from non - replacement of leavers (2k - 3k rotation of colleagues p.a.). We will undertake a respectful “best of breed” approach on leadership and people.  Over the same period, we will continue to grow (organic and further M&A).

 

 

11 Customers: Creating an Industry Leader  A larger customer base to sell our best - in - class pest control innovations and digital solutions.  Opportunities to provide additional services to existing customers eg potential for cross sell, for instance, Ambius & H&W services to Terminix customers.  Supporting our customers own sustainability plans – developing more environmentally - friendly services.  Shared technical expertise and best practices.  Further investment in customer expertise technologies.  Continuing to invest in our brands – Terminix brand is particularly strong in Residential & Termite.

 

 

12 New US Innovation Centre - post completion, the Combined Group intends to invest in a new innovation centre, focused on residential and termite solutions to supplement the new innovations already in the pipeline for rodents, flying insects and crawling insects – and many connected, digital options. Multi - mouse catch for better efficacy and reduced servicing Eradico Connect - intelligently activates other Auto - gate devices when infestation occurs Crawling insects connect - proprietary technology for 24/7 monitoring Lumnia connect - continuous monitoring provides immediate fly control

 

 

13 Shareholders: Creating Value & Resilience  Creating value for shareholders and building an even stronger investment case.  Two great companies – joining forces to become more efficient and effective – economies of scale in procurement / buying better, technology, greater route density, shared properties, e fficiencies across back - office and support functions.  By bringing the two companies together we estimate that we can save at least $150m over three years from completion and build our long - term growth potential. We’ll continue to invest in growth and M&A.

 

 

14 Also announced today – additional US listing at completion on NYSE for Rentokil Initial plc shares in the form of American Depositary Receipts (ADR) – easier for US investors.
