Saela Pest Control Acquisition
On April 1, 2025, the Company acquired 100% of Saela Holdings, LLC ("Saela") for $207.2 million. The Company funded this acquisition using cash on hand and borrowings under the commercial paper program.
The acquisition expands the Rollins family of brands, and management believes the acquisition will drive long-term value given Saela's attractive financial profile and complementary end market exposure.
The Saela acquisition has been accounted for as a business combination, and Saela's results of operations are included in the Company's operations from the acquisition date. During the year ended December 31, 2025, Saela contributed revenues and net earnings of $54.9 million and $5.0 million, respectively.
The valuation of the Saela acquisition was performed by a third-party valuation specialist under management’s supervision. The estimated purchase price allocation disclosed as of June 30, 2025 was revised during the measurement period as new information was received and analyzed resulting in an increase in customer contracts, a decrease in goodwill, and other immaterial changes, as presented in the table below. The initial and updated preliminary values of identified assets acquired and liabilities assumed for Saela are summarized as follows:

Assets acquired and liabilities assumed$207,133 $94 $207,227 
Included in the total consideration above are cash payments of $193.7 million made upon closing, contingent consideration valued at $8.8 million that is based on Saela's expected financial performance in the two years following the acquisition, and holdback liabilities valued at $4.7 million to be held by the Company to settle indemnity claims and purchase price
adjustments. The fair value of the contingent consideration was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation. During the year ended December 31, 2025, we recognized a charge of $3.2 million, related to adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration resulting from the acquisition of Saela. This charge is reported in sales, general and administrative expenses on our consolidated statements of income.
The acquired Saela customer contracts are estimated to have a remaining useful life of 7 years. The acquired trademarks and tradenames are expected to have an indefinite useful life. See Note 8, Customer Contracts, Tradenames and Trademarks, and Other Intangible Assets, for further details.
Goodwill from this acquisition represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets of the business acquired. The factors contributing to the amount of goodwill are based on strategic and synergistic benefits that are expected to be realized. The recognized goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Valuations of certain assets and liabilities, including intangible assets and goodwill, as of the acquisition date have not been finalized at this time and are provisional.
