TERMINIX GLOBAL HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

Terminix Global Holdings, Inc. and its majority-owned subsidiary partnerships, limited liability companies and corporations (collectively, “Terminix,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our”) is a leading provider of essential services to residential and commercial customers in the termite and pest management markets. Our portfolio of well‑recognized brands includes Terminix, Copesan, Assured Environments, Gregory Pest Solutions, McCloud Services and Nomor. All consolidated Company subsidiaries are wholly-owned. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Our operations are organized into one reportable segment, our pest management and termite business.

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). We recommend that the quarterly unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, as filed with the SEC (the “2021 Form 10-K”). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be achieved for any other interim period or for the full year due to the seasonality of our business, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic (“COVID-19”) and the possibility of changes in general economic conditions.

COVID-19

Since March 11, 2020 when the World Health Organization designated COVID-19 as a global pandemic, we have experienced increased demand in our residential pest management and termite and home services service lines as customers are spending more time at home. We have also experienced disruptions in our business, primarily in the commercial pest management service line, driven by temporary business closures and service postponements, and in our product sales and other service line. We continue to focus on initiatives to ensure the safety and productivity of our teammates, including personal protective equipment and safety policies and measures for field teammates, and technology to facilitate remote working, with most back-office and all call center teammates working remotely and field support teammates working remotely where possible.

Proposed Acquisition by Rentokil

On December 13, 2021, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Rentokil Initial plc, a public limited company incorporated under the laws of England and Wales (“Rentokil”), Rentokil Initial US Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Rentokil (“Bidco”), Leto Holdings I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Bidco (“Merger Sub I”), and Leto Holdings II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Bidco (“Merger Sub II”), pursuant to which, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth therein, (1) Merger Sub I will merge with and into the Company (the “First Merger”), with the Company surviving the First Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Bidco, and (2) immediately following the effective time of the First Merger (the “Effective Time”), the Company, as the surviving corporation in the First Merger, will merge with and into Merger Sub II (the “Second Merger” and, together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with Merger Sub II surviving the Second Merger as a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Bidco and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Rentokil.

Under the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each share of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than certain excluded shares as described in the Merger Agreement) will be converted into the right to receive either:

a number of American depositary shares of Rentokil (each representing a beneficial interest in five ordinary shares of Rentokil) equal to (A) 1.0619 (the “Exchange Ratio”) plus (B) the quotient of $11.00 (the “Per Share Cash Amount”) and the volume weighted average price (measured in U.S. dollars) of Rentokil American depositary shares (measured using the volume weighted average price of Rentokil ordinary shares as a proxy) for the trading day that is two trading days prior to the Effective Time (or such other date as may be mutually agreed to by Rentokil and the Company) (such price, the “Rentokil ADS Price,” and such number of Rentokil American depositary shares, the “Stock Consideration”); or

an amount in cash, without interest, and in USD equal to the sum of (A) the Per Share Cash Amount plus (B) the product of the Exchange Ratio and the Rentokil ADS Price (the “Cash Consideration,” and together with the “Stock Consideration,” the “Merger Consideration”),

Table of Contents

exist. The aggregate Cash Consideration and the aggregate Stock Consideration that will be issued in the Mergers will not vary as a result of individual election preferences.

The respective obligations of the Company and Rentokil to consummate the Mergers are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions, including, among others the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the Company’s stockholders, and the approval of the Mergers contemplated by the Merger Agreement and other related matters by Rentokil’s shareholders.

The respective obligations of the Company and Rentokil to consummate the Mergers are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions, including, among others the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the Company’s stockholders and the approval of the Mergers contemplated by the Merger Agreement and other related matters by Rentokil’s shareholders.

including obtaining approval by the Company’s and Rentokil’s shareholders, and the registration of ADSs with the

U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and their listing on the New York Stock Exchange.

In conjunction with the proposed Mergers, the parties have agreed that the Company may provide up to $20 million of cash retention awards (the “Retention Pool”) to Terminix teammates. The retention awards are designed to retain and incentivize the Terminix team as it executes the 2022 operating plan, achieves the consummation of the merger and assists with the integration of the combined company after closing of the transaction. Half of the Retention Pool has been allocated specifically to customer-facing, field operations teammates, and the remainder has been allocated to key back-office teammates.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements included in our 2021 Form 10-K. There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies for the three months ended March 31, 2022, other than those described below.

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective

In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers,” require that an entity (acquirer) recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years, and early adoption is permitted. We will adopt this ASU effective January 1, 2023. We do not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In November 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-10, Government Assistance (Topic 832), Disclosures by Business Entities About Government Assistance, which requires entities to provide disclosures on material government assistance transactions for annual reporting periods. The disclosures include information around the nature of the assistance, the related accounting policies used to account for government assistance, the effect of government assistance on the entity’s financial statements, and any significant terms and conditions of the agreements, including commitments and contingencies. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 and only impacts annual financial statement footnote disclosures. We do not expect the adoption to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

We have reviewed all other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not expect the future adoption of any such pronouncements will have a material impact on our financial condition or the results of our operations.

Note 3. Revenues

The following tables present our reportable segment revenues, disaggregated by revenue source and geographic area. We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into major product lines. We determined that disaggregating revenue into these categories achieves the disclosure objective to depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

Revenue by major service line was as follows:


	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
(In millions)	2022		2021
Major service line
Residential Pest Management	$	175	$	166
Commercial Pest Management		132		129
Termite and Home Services		171		162
Sales of Products and Other		18		15
Total	$	496	$	471

Table of Contents

Revenue by geographic area was as follows:


	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
(In millions)	2022		2021
United States	$	465	$	441
International		31		30
Total	$	496	$	471

Contract Balances

Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Contracts with customers are generally for a period of one year or less and are generally renewable. We record a receivable related to revenue recognized on services once we have an unconditional right to invoice and receive payment in the future related to the services provided. All accounts receivables are recorded within Receivables, less allowances, on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. The current portion of Notes receivable, which represents amounts financed for customers, are included within Receivables, less allowances, on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Financial Position and totaled $27 million and $26 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

At contract inception, we assess the goods and services promised in our contracts with customers and identify a performance obligation for each promise to transfer to the customer a good or service (or a bundle of goods and services) that is distinct. To identify the performance obligation, we consider all of the goods and services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or are implied by customary business practices.

Deferred revenue represents a contract liability and is recognized when cash payments are received in advance of the performance of services. Amounts are recognized as revenue upon completion of services.

Changes in deferred revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were as follows:


(In millions)	Deferred revenue
Balance as of December 31, 2021	$	103
Deferral of revenue		44
Recognition of deferred revenue		(39)
Balance as of March 31, 2022	$	108

Balance as of December 31, 2020	$	102
Deferral of revenue		36
Recognition of deferred revenue		(32)
Balance as of March 31, 2021	$	108

There was approximately $30 million of revenue recognized in the three ended March 31, 2022, that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2021. There was approximately $26 million of revenue recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2021, that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2020.

Note 4. Restructuring and Other Charges

We incurred restructuring and other charges of $19 million ($16 million, net of tax) and $6 million ($5 million, net of tax) in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Restructuring and other charges were comprised of the following:



	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
(In millions)	2022		2021
Severance⁽¹⁾	$	—	$	4
Costs related to our proposed acquisition by Rentokil⁽²⁾		9		—
Other⁽³⁾		9		3
Total restructuring charges	$	19	$	6

___________________________________

(1)Includes severance and related charges to align functions after the sale of the ServiceMaster Brands Divestiture Group, enhance field operations and corporate capabilities, and reduce costs in our corporate functions that provide administrative services to support operations.

(2)Primarily professional and consultant fees and accrual of employee retention bonuses.

(3)Primarily owned building and operating lease right-of-use asset impairment charges, costs to simplify our back-office and align as a singularly focused pest management company and other exit costs. Charges for the three months ended March 31, 2022, include a $9 million impairment of the Memphis headquarters building operating lease right-of-use asset and leasehold improvements. The impairment was the result of the recent sublease of approximately 24% of the building.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of accrued restructuring charges by major cost type, which are included in Accrued liabilities—Payroll and related expenses and Other on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, is presented as follows:



	Accrued		Accrued		Accrued		Total Accrued
	Severance		Merger Related		Other		Restructuring
(In millions)	Charges		Charges		Charges		Charges
Balance as of December 31, 2021	$	2	$	7	$	—	$	9
Costs incurred		—		9		9		19
Costs paid or otherwise settled		(2)		(8)		(9)		(19)
Balance as of March 31, 2022	$	—	$	8	$	—	$	9

Balance as of December 31, 2020	$	2	$	—	$	—	$	2
Costs incurred		4		—		3		6
Costs paid or otherwise settled		(1)		—		(3)		(4)
Balance as of March 31, 2021	$	4	$	—	$	1	$	5

We expect substantially all of our accrued restructuring charges to be paid within one year.

Note 5. Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, we periodically enter into agreements that incorporate indemnification provisions. While the maximum amount to which we may be exposed under such agreements cannot be estimated, we do not expect these guarantees and indemnifications to have a material effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We carry insurance policies on insurable risks at levels that we believe to be appropriate, including workers’ compensation, automobile and general liability risks. We purchase insurance policies from third-party insurance carriers, which typically incorporate significant deductibles or self-insured retentions. We are responsible for all claims that fall below the retention limits, exceed our coverage limits or are otherwise not covered by our insurance policies. In determining our accrual for self-insured claims, we use historical claims experience to establish both the current year accrual and the underlying provision for future losses. This actuarially determined provision and related accrual include known claims, as well as incurred but not reported claims. We adjust our estimate of accrued self-insured claims when required to reflect changes based on factors such as changes in health care costs, accident frequency and claim severity.

Our business is subject to a significant number of damage claims related to termite activity in homes for which we provide termite control services, often accompanied by a termite damage warranty. Our termite damage warranty is a differentiator in the industry that has enabled us to become a market leader of this product line. Termite damage claims include circumstances when a customer notifies us that they have experienced damage to their property and we reach an agreement to remediate that damage (a “Non-Litigated Claim”); and circumstances when we do not reach an agreement with a customer to remediate the damage and that customer initiates litigation or arbitration proceedings (a “Litigated Claim”). We accrue for these liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred and such costs can be reasonably estimated. Current activity can differ, causing a change in estimates which could be material.

A reconciliation of beginning and ending accrued Litigated Claims, which are included in Accrued liabilities—Other and Other long-term obligations, primarily self-insured claims on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, and Non-Litigated Claims, which are included in Accrued liabilities—Self-insured claims and related expenses on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, is presented as follows:

In November 2020, the Company entered into the Consent Judgment and Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement”) with the Office of the Attorney General of the State of Alabama (the “AL AG”) and other Alabama state regulators, primarily related to termite renewal pricing changes we made in our branches in Mobile, Alabama and Gulf Shores, Alabama, which comprise all of our customers in the area, (collectively, the “Mobile Bay Area”) in 2019 and certain other termite inspection and treatment practices regarding the control of Formosan termites in that area that allegedly violated the Alabama Deceptive Trade Practices Act (the “ADTPA”). The Settlement provides for: immediate remediation measures to be provided directly to current and former customers in the Mobile Bay Area, including refunds of certain price increases, rebates to certain former customers, the establishment of a $25 million consumer fund and a related receiver to oversee our compliance with these commitments and to act as an arbitrator for certain Non-litigated Claims; the reimbursement of certain investigative and monitoring costs incurred by the AL AG’s office and the Department of Agriculture and Industries; and a university endowment intended to support termite and pest management research with an emphasis on Formosan termite research. The Company has also agreed to pay the state of Alabama $19 million.

Pursuant to the Settlement, we have also agreed to provide the opportunity to reinstate service for certain customers who canceled their services during specified timeframes as well as the retreatment of certain customer premises and a commitment to certain specified response and remediation timeframes for future termite damage claims. We do not expect the financial impact of these additional remedies to have a material impact on our prospective results of operations or cash flows.

In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company funded the $25 million consumer fund, from which certain monetary liabilities from settlements of, or judgments in, the covered Settlement are paid by the fund’s receiver. The amount in the consumer fund is held in escrow by the receiver and is classified as a deposit within Prepaid expenses and other assets and with an offsetting liability recorded within Accrued liabilities – Other on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. In the second quarter of 2021, the Company recorded an increase in expense related to the settlement of $4 million due to a higher than anticipated customer participation rate. No adjustments were made in the first quarter of 2022. The fund’s receiver has paid a total of $10 million from the fund through the first quarter of 2022.

State of Mississippi Formosan Termite Litigation

On April 22, 2021, the State of Mississippi brought litigation against us related to our termite inspection and treatment practices. The Company disputes the claims made in the litigation and intends to defend the matter vigorously. However, given the uncertainty of litigation, the preliminary stage of the case, and the legal standards that must be met for success on the merits, the Company cannot predict with certainty the outcome of the Mississippi litigation.

Fumigation Related Matters

On December 16, 2016, the U.S. Virgin Islands Department of Justice filed a civil complaint in the Superior Court of the Virgin Islands related to the aforementioned fumigation incident in a matter styled Government of the United States Virgin Islands v. The ServiceMaster Company, LLC, The Terminix International Company Limited Partnership, and Terminix International USVI, LLC (collectively, “the Parties”). On November 15, 2021, the Parties reached a settlement agreement whereby the Company agreed to pay $3 million to the Government of the U.S. Virgin Islands and the settlement was paid in the three months ended March 31, 2022.

On January 20, 2017, TMX USVI and TMX LP, each an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a revised Plea Agreement in connection with the investigation initiated by the DOJ into allegations that a local Terminix branch used methyl bromide as a fumigant at a resort in St. John, U.S. Virgin Islands. Under the terms of sentencing handed down on November 20, 2017, (i) TMX USVI and TMX LP each paid a fine of $4.6 million (total of $9.2 million); (ii) TMX USVI and TMX LP paid a total of $1.2 million to the EPA for costs incurred by the EPA for the response and clean-up of the affected units at the resort in St. John; and (iii) both TMX USVI and TMX LP will serve a five year probation period. In lieu of the $1 million community service payment that was proposed in the Plea Agreement, the court required TMX USVI and TMX LP to provide for training certification courses with respect to pesticide application and safety in the U.S. Virgin Islands until November 2022.

Other Litigation

On March 25, 2022, in connection with its previously filed complaint on October 20, 2020, Bruce-Terminix Company, a licensee of the Company (“Bruce” or the “Licensee”), filed a supplemental complaint against the Company and The Terminix International Company Limited Partnership, a subsidiary of the Company, under the caption Bruce-Terminix Company v. The Terminix International Company Limited Partnership, and Terminix Global Holdings, Inc., Civil Action No: 1:20-CV-962 (M.D.N.C.) (the “Bruce Lawsuit”). The original complaint generally alleged, among other things, that certain subsidiaries of the Company violated the non-compete restriction under the Licensee’s license agreement and the North Carolina Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices Act. As supplemented, the Bruce Lawsuit further generally alleges, among other things, that a Rentokil subsidiary currently competes in the Licensee’s territory and that the Mergers would violate the non-compete restriction under the Licensee’s license agreement. The Bruce Lawsuit also alleges, among other things, that Bruce would suffer irreparable harm from purported competition with Rentokil should the Mergers be consummated, and seeks, among other things, injunctive relief enjoining the defendants from merging with Rentokil so long as Rentokil owns pest control companies with locations within Bruce’s service area and from disclosing to Rentokil certain confidential or proprietary information of the Company. The Company believes that the claims asserted in the Bruce Lawsuit are without merit.

In addition to the matters discussed above, in the ordinary course of conducting business activities, we and our subsidiaries become involved in judicial, administrative and regulatory proceedings involving both private parties and governmental authorities. We accrue for these liabilities when it is probable the future costs will be incurred and such costs can be reasonably estimated. Current activity can differ, causing a change in estimates which could be material. These proceedings include insured and uninsured matters that are brought on an individual, collective, representative and class action basis, or other proceedings involving regulatory, employment, general and commercial liability, automobile liability, wage and hour, environmental, shareholder and other matters. We have entered into settlement agreements in certain cases, including with respect to putative collective and class actions, which are subject to court or other approvals, and which require compliance with the terms of the agreements. If one or more of our settlements are not finally approved and implemented, we could have additional or different exposure, which could be material. Subject to the paragraphs above, we do not expect any of these proceedings to have a material effect on our reputation, business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows; however, we can give no assurance that the results of any such proceedings will not materially affect our reputation, business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Note 6. Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, primarily trade names, are not amortized and are subject to assessment for impairment by applying a fair-value based test on an annual basis or more frequently if circumstances indicate a potential impairment. There were no impairment charges recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Customer relationships and Other intangible assets, which primarily includes trade names subject to amortization, are amortized over their respective useful lives.

Note 7. Stock-Based Compensation

For each of the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, we recognized stock-based compensation expense of $6 million ($4 million, net of tax). These charges are recorded within Selling and administrative expenses in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

As of March 31, 2022, there were $41 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance share units granted under the Amended and Restated Terminix Global Holdings, Inc. 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Incentive Plan”). These remaining costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.15 years.

On February 24, 2015, our board of directors approved and recommended for approval by our stockholders the Terminix Global Holdings, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“Employee Stock Purchase Plan”), which became effective for offering periods commencing July 1, 2015. On April 27, 2015, our stockholders approved the Employee Stock Purchase Plan with a maximum of one million shares of common stock authorized for sale under the plan. On November 3, 2015, we filed a registration statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act to register the one million shares of common stock that may be issued under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan and, as a result, all shares of common stock acquired under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan will be freely tradable under the Securities Act, unless purchased by our affiliates. Our Compensation Committee amended the Employee Stock Purchase Plan in February 2019 to allow for more frequent purchase periods and to change the allowed 10 percent discount to a company match of 10 percent of employee contributions. The authorized number of shares remaining in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan was not changed from 843,584 and the expiration date of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan was not changed from April 27, 2025. As of March 31, 2022, there were 741,120 shares available for issuance under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. In connection with the announcement of the proposed acquisition of the Company by Rentokil, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan was indefinitely suspended as of January 1, 2022.

Note 8. Comprehensive (Loss) Income

Comprehensive (loss) income, which primarily includes net income, unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments and the effect of foreign currency translation, is included in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

During 2019, we terminated our then-existing $650 million interest rate swap, receiving $12 million from the counterparty. The fair value of the terminated agreement is recorded within accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position and will be amortized into interest expense over the original term of the agreement. The remaining unamortized balance at March 31, 2022 was $4 million.

Note 12. Acquisitions

Acquisitions have been accounted for as business combinations using the acquisition method and, accordingly, the results of operations of the acquired businesses have been included in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements since their dates of acquisition. The assets and liabilities of these businesses were recorded in the financial statements at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition dates.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, there were no acquisitions. We reversed $1 million of contingent consideration related to an acquisition that closed in 2021 as the contingency was not met. The reversal was recorded within Acquisition-related costs in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income, and partially offset by acquisition costs.

In the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company initiated a series of transactions to restructure its joint ventures in China. The Company contributed $31 million of cash to effect the restructuring during the three months ended March 31, 2022, which is reflected in other investing in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Upon completion of subsequent transactions in 2022, the Company expects to record a gain on sale of a portion of its interest in the joint ventures.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we used available cash on hand to fund a $22 million investment in acquisitions, which included $15 million for four tuck-in acquisitions. All acquisitions have been accounted for as business combinations. As of March 31, 2021, we had recorded goodwill of $11 million and other intangibles, primarily customer relationships, of $4 million related to these acquisitions. As of March 31, 2022, all purchase price allocations for 2021 acquisitions were completed, resulting in no changes to goodwill or intangibles. We also completed approximately $8 million of funding for a minority interest investment that was included in Accrued liabilities‒Other on the Consolidated Statements of Financial position as of December 31, 2020.

Note 13. Income Taxes

As required by ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” we compute interim period income taxes by applying an anticipated annual effective tax rate to our year-to-date income or loss from continuing operations before income taxes, except for significant unusual or infrequently occurring items. Our estimated tax rate is adjusted each quarter in accordance with ASC 740.

The effective tax rate on net income was 14.2 percent and 28.5 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective tax rate on net income for the three months ended March 31, 2022, was favorably impacted by the release of a state reserve that was recorded discretely in the quarter.

We had $9 million and $13 million of tax benefits primarily reflected in U.S. Federal and state tax returns that have not been recognized for financial reporting purposes (“unrecognized tax benefits”) as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Based on information currently available, it is reasonably possible that over the next 12 month period unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by $1 million as the result of settlements of ongoing audits, statute of limitation expirations or final settlements of uncertain tax positions in multiple jurisdictions. Our policy is to recognize interest income, interest expense and penalties related to our tax positions within the tax provision.

Note 14. Fair Value Measurements

The period-end carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The period-end carrying amounts of long-term notes receivable approximate fair value as the effective interest rates for these instruments are comparable to period-end market rates. The period-end carrying amounts of short- and long-term marketable securities also approximate fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported in interest and net investment income in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The carrying amount of total debt excluding vehicle financing leases was $806 million and $779 million, and the estimated fair value was $868 million and $866 million as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The fair value of our debt is estimated based on available market prices for the same or similar instruments which are considered significant other observable inputs (Level 2) within the fair value hierarchy. The fair values presented reflect the amounts that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The fair value estimates presented in this report are based on information available to us as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

We have estimated the fair value of our financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis using the market and income approaches. For deferred compensation trust assets and derivative contracts, which are carried at their fair values, our fair value estimates incorporate quoted market prices, other observable inputs (for example, forward interest rates) and unobservable inputs (for example, forward commodity prices) at the balance sheet date.

Interest rate swap contracts are valued using forward interest rate curves obtained from third-party market data providers. The fair value of each contract is the sum of the expected future settlements between the contract counterparties, discounted to present value. The expected future settlements are determined by comparing the contract interest rate to the expected forward interest rate as of each settlement date and applying the difference between the two rates to the notional amount of debt in the interest rate swap contracts.

Fuel swap contracts are valued using forward fuel price curves obtained from third-party market data providers. The fair value of each contract is the sum of the expected future settlements between the contract counterparties, discounted to present value. The expected future settlements are determined by comparing the contract fuel price to the expected forward fuel price as of each settlement date and applying the difference between the contract and expected prices to the notional gallons in the fuel swap contracts. We regularly review the forward price curves obtained from third-party market data providers and related changes in fair value for reasonableness utilizing information available to us from other published sources.

Cross-currency interest rate swaps are valued using forward foreign currency exchange rates obtained from third-party market data providers. The fair value of each contract is the sum of the expected future settlements between the contract counterparties, discounted to present value. The expected future settlements are determined by comparing the contract foreign exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and Swedish krona as of each settlement date and applying the difference between the two rates to the notional amount of the investment in the cross-currency interest rate swap contracts.

Changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap contracts, fuel swap contracts and cross-currency interest rate swap designated as a net investment hedge are recorded within Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. Changes in the fair value of the cross-currency interest rate swap designated as a cash flow hedge are recorded within Selling and administrative expenses on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income, offsetting foreign currency fluctuations on the hedged instrument. Interest accruals and coupon payments are recognized directly in interest expense, thus reflecting a Swedish krona fixed rate. Upon discontinuation of the net investment hedge, the changes in spot value and any amounts excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness that have not been recognized in earnings will remain within CTA until the hedged net investment is sold, diluted, or liquidated.

We have not changed our valuation techniques for measuring the fair value of any financial assets and liabilities during the year. Transfers between levels, if any, are recognized at the end of the reporting period. There were no significant transfers between levels during each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

(1)Forward prices per gallon were derived from third-party market data providers. A decrease in the forward price would result in a decrease in the fair value of the fuel swap contracts.

As of March 31, 2022, we had fuel swap contracts to pay fixed prices for fuel with an aggregate notional amount of $20 million, maturing through 2022. Under the terms of our fuel swap contracts, we are required to post collateral in the event that the fair value of the contracts exceeds a certain agreed upon liability level and in other circumstances required by the counterparty. As of March 31, 2022, we had posted $2 million in letters of credit as collateral under our fuel hedging program, which were issued under the Revolving Credit Facility.

The effective portion of the gain or loss on derivative instruments designated and qualifying as cash flow hedging instruments is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. These amounts are reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged forecasted debt interest settlement or the fuel settlement affects earnings. See Note 8 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the effective portion of the gain or loss on derivative instruments recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and for the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income and into earnings. The amount expected to be reclassified into earnings during the next 12 months includes unrealized gains and losses related to open fuel hedges and interest rate swaps. Specifically, as the underlying forecasted transactions occur during the next 12 months, the hedging gains and losses in accumulated other comprehensive income expected to be recognized in earnings is a gain of $7 million, net of tax, as of March 31, 2022. The amounts that are ultimately reclassified into earnings will be based on actual fuel prices and interest rates at the time the positions are settled and may differ materially from the amount noted above.

Note 15. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, increased to include the number of shares of common stock that would have been outstanding had potential dilutive shares of common stock been issued. The dilutive effect of stock options, RSUs and performance share units are reflected in diluted earnings per share by applying the treasury stock method.

A reconciliation of the amounts included in the computation of basic earnings per share from continuing operations and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations is as follows:



	Three Months Ended
	March 31,

(In millions, except per share data)	2022		2021

___________________________________

(1)Options to purchase 0.4 million and an insignificant number of shares for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following information should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following discussion may contain forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those factors discussed below and elsewhere in this report, particularly in “—Information Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Overview

Our core services include residential and commercial termite and pest management under the following brands: Terminix, Copesan, Assured Environments, Gregory, McCloud and Nomor. Our operations for the periods presented in this report are organized into one reportable segment, our pest management and termite business.

COVID-19

Since March 11, 2020, when the World Health Organization designated COVID-19 as a global pandemic, we have experienced increased demand in our residential pest management and termite and home services service lines as customers are spending more time at home. We have also experienced disruptions in our business, primarily in the commercial pest management service line, driven by temporary business closures and service postponements, and in our product sales and other service line. We expect the commercial pest market to continue to stabilize to more normalized growth levels into 2022.

Over the course of 2021, we experienced an increase in medical expenses and short-term disability claims related to COVID-19 infections in our workforce, which we expect to continue in the short-term, and we have experienced increased turnover and labor shortages as a result of the pandemic. We continue to focus on initiatives to ensure the safety and productivity of our teammates, including personal protective equipment and safety policies and measures for field teammates, and technology to facilitate remote working, with most back-office and all customer care center teammates continuing to work remotely and field support teammates working remotely where possible. We continue to evaluate the benefits, opportunities and risks identified from our remote working experiences to sustain and identify ways to reduce ongoing operating costs while balancing operational performance.

Refer to Results of Operations below for further discussion of the impact of COVID-19 on our business.

Proposed Acquisition by Rentokil

On December 13, 2021, we entered into the Merger Agreement with Rentokil, Bidco, Merger Sub I and Merger Sub II. Under the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each share of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than certain excluded shares as described in the Merger Agreement) will be converted into the right to receive either:

a number of American depositary shares of Rentokil (each representing a beneficial interest in five ordinary shares of Rentokil) equal to (A) 1.0619 plus (B) the quotient of $11.00 and the volume weighted average price (measured in U.S. dollars) of Rentokil American depositary shares (measured using the volume weighted average price of Rentokil ordinary shares as a proxy) for the trading day that is two trading days prior to the Effective Time (or such other date as may be mutually agreed to by Rentokil and the Company); or

an amount in cash, without interest, and in USD equal to the sum of (A) the Per Share Cash Amount plus (B) the product of the Exchange Ratio and the Rentokil ADS Price,

in each case at the election of the holder of such share of our common stock, subject to certain allocation and proration provisions of the Merger Agreement. Immediately following such conversion, our shares of common stock will be automatically cancelled and cease to exist. The aggregate Cash Consideration and the aggregate Stock Consideration that will be issued in the Mergers will not vary as a result of individual election preferences.

The respective obligations of the Company and Rentokil to consummate the Mergers are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions, including, among others the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the Company’s stockholders and the approval of the Mergers contemplated by the Merger Agreement and other related matters by Rentokil’s shareholders.

As announced on March 15, 2022, the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 expired, thereby completing the necessary antitrust process in the US. A number of other conditions remain to be satisfied, including obtaining approval by the Company’s and Rentokil’s shareholders, and the registration of ADSs with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and their listing on the New York Stock Exchange. With good progress being made on satisfying the remaining conditions, both parties continue to be on track to complete the transaction in the second half of 2022, with a target completion date towards the end of the third quarter.

Table of Contents

As the Company prepares for the proposed acquisition, it will incur additional expenses unrelated to ongoing operations, including professional fees for legal and banking services and retention awards among other items. These will be classified as restructuring expenses and excluded from ongoing operations in order to aid period to period comparability.

Key Business Metrics

We focus on a variety of indicators and key operating and financial metrics to monitor the financial condition and performance of the continuing operations of our business. These metrics include:

revenue,

operating expenses,

net income,

earnings per share,

Adjusted EBITDA,

free cash flow

organic revenue growth, and

customer retention.

To the extent applicable, these measures are evaluated with and without impairment, restructuring and other charges that management believes are not indicative of the earnings capabilities of our business. We also focus on measures designed to monitor cash flow, including net cash provided from operating activities from continuing operations and free cash flow.

Revenue. Our revenue results are primarily a function of the volume and pricing of the services and products provided to our customers by our business as well as the mix of services and products provided across our business. The volume of our revenue is impacted by new unit sales, the retention of our existing customers and acquisitions. We serve both residential and commercial customers, principally in the U.S. We expect to continue our tuck-in acquisition program and to periodically evaluate other strategic acquisitions. As of March 31, 2022, approximately 94 percent of our revenue was generated by sales in the United States.

Operating Expenses. In addition to the impact of changes in our revenue results, our operating results are affected by, among other things, the level of our operating expenses. A number of our operating expenses are subject to inflationary pressures, such as fuel, chemicals, wages and salaries, teammate benefits and health care, vehicles, personal protective equipment, self-insurance costs and other insurance premiums, as well as various regulatory compliance costs.

Net Income and Earnings Per Share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, increased to include the number of shares of common stock that would have been outstanding had potential dilutive shares of common stock been issued. The dilutive effect of stock options and RSUs are reflected in diluted earnings per share by applying the treasury stock method.

Adjusted EBITDA. We evaluate performance based primarily on Adjusted EBITDA. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) before: depreciation and amortization expense; amortization of cloud-based software, acquisition-related costs (adjustments); Mobile Bay Formosan termite settlement; termite damage claims reserve adjustment; non-cash stock-based compensation expense; restructuring and other charges; goodwill impairment charges; fumigation related matters; realized (gain) loss on investment in frontdoor, inc.; net earnings (loss) from discontinued operations; provision (benefit) for income taxes; loss on extinguishment of debt; and interest expense. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful for investors, analysts and other interested parties as it facilitates company-to-company operating performance comparisons by excluding potential differences caused by variations in capital structures, taxation, the age and book depreciation of facilities and equipment, restructuring initiatives, consulting agreements, acquisition activities and equity-based, long-term incentive plans. Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be calculated or comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Table of Contents

A reconciliation of Net income to Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was as follows:


	Three Months Ended
	March 31,

(In millions)	2022		2021
Net Income	$	19	$	27

Non-cash stock-based compensation expense		6		6
Restructuring and other charges		19		6
Provision for income taxes		3		11
Interest expense		11		12
Adjusted EBITDA	$	86	$	90

Free Cash Flow. Free Cash Flow means net cash provided from operating activities from continuing operations, less property additions. We believe Free Cash Flow is useful as a supplemental measure of our liquidity. We use Free Cash Flow to facilitate company-to-company cash flow comparisons by removing payments for property additions, which may vary from company-to-company for reasons unrelated to operating performance.

Organic Revenue Growth. We use organic revenue growth to track performance, including the impacts of sales, pricing, new service offerings, customer retention and other growth initiatives. Organic revenue growth excludes revenue from acquired customers for 12 months following the acquisition date. We believe organic revenue growth is useful for investors, analysts and other invested parties as it facilitates company-to-company performance comparisons by excluding the impact of acquisitions on revenue growth. See Revenue below for a reconciliation of revenue growth to organic revenue growth.

Customer Retention. Customer retention is used to track the retention of our renewable customers and is calculated on a rolling, 12-month basis in order to avoid seasonal anomalies.

Seasonality

We have seasonality in our business, which drives fluctuations in revenue and Adjusted EBITDA for interim periods. In 2021, revenue and Adjusted EBITDA by quarter was recognized as follows:


	Q1		Q2		Q3		Q4
Revenue	23	%	27	%	26	%	24	%
Adjusted EBITDA	23	%	32	%	26	%	19	%

Effect of Weather Conditions

The demand for our services and our results of operations are also affected by weather conditions, including the seasonal nature of our termite and pest management services. Weather conditions which have a potentially unfavorable impact to our business include cooler temperatures or droughts which can impede the development of termite swarms and lead to lower demand for our termite control services. Weather conditions which have a potentially favorable impact to our business include mild winters which can lead to higher demand for termite and pest management services.

Revenue

Three months ended March 31, 2022 Compared to Three months ended March 31, 2021

We reported revenue of $496 million and $471 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Revenue by service line was as follows:



	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
(In millions)	2022		2021		Growth				Organic				Acquired
Residential Pest Management	$	175	$	166	$	9	5	%	$	7	4	%	$	2	1	%
Commercial Pest Management		132		129		3	2	%		(1)	(1)	%		5	4	%
Termite and Home Services		171		162		10	6	%		9	6	%		—	—	%
Sales of Products and Other		18		15		3	18	%		3	18	%		—	—	%
Total revenue	$	496	$	471	$	25	5	%	$	18	4	%	$	6	1	%

Revenue growth was $25 million year over year, or five percent, including one percent from acquisitions.

Residential pest management revenue growth was five percent, reflecting organic revenue growth of four percent. Organic revenue growth was driven by higher mosquito and bedbug sales volume, improved trailing 12-month customer retention rates and improved price realization. Residential pest management revenue also increased one percent from acquisitions completed in the last 12 months.

Commercial pest management revenue growth was two percent. The organic revenue decline of one percent was driven by a reduction in one-time services driven by lapping more than $1 million of disinfection revenue in the prior year, partially offset by improved price realization. International pest revenue was negatively impacted by over $1 million of foreign currency. Excluding the impact of foreign currency and disinfection revenue, commercial pest organic growth would have been approximately two percent. Commercial pest management revenue also increased four percent from acquisitions completed in the last 12 months.

Termite organic revenue growth was six percent. Termite completions increased 13 percent, driven by sales of our new monthly pay tiered termite product. Home services, which are managed as a component of our termite line of business and include wildlife exclusion, crawl space encapsulation and attic insulation, revenue growth was 19 percent, primarily as a result of improved cross selling to existing customers. Termite renewals decreased one percent, due to lower volume, partially offset by improved price realization.

In the three months ended March 31, 2022, termite renewal revenue comprised 48 percent of total termite revenue, while the remainder consisted of termite new unit revenue. Termite activity is unpredictable in its nature. Factors that can impact termite activity include conducive weather conditions and consumer awareness of termite swarms.

Sales of products and other revenue growth was 18 percent due to increased chemical demand as we lap the impacts of COVID-19 on three months ended March 31, 2021 revenue.

Cost of Services Rendered and Products Sold

We reported cost of services rendered and products sold of $296 million and $270 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to March 31, 2021, cost of services rendered and products sold increased ten percent. The increase is largely attributable to the flow through from $25 million of higher revenue. Investments in labor increased $4 million, primarily due to higher trainee costs as we increase our workforce for peak season. Vehicle fuel increased $2 million year over year, driven by higher fuel prices. Termite damage claims expenses increased $3 million due to higher litigated claims counts in the Mobile Bay Area as well as higher cost per Non-Litigated Claims due, in part, to inflationary pressure on building materials and contractor costs. Investments in service staffing levels and training in the call center also increased.

Selling and Administrative Expenses

The following table provides a summary of selling and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:


	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
(In millions)	2022		2021
Selling and marketing expenses	$	58	$	59
General and administrative expenses		80		78
Total Selling and administrative expenses	$	138	$	137

Selling and marketing expenses were relatively flat in the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Table of Contents

General and administrative costs were up $2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, due to increased travel costs due to the easing of COVID-19 travel restrictions as well as investments in sales staffing levels and training in the call center.

Amortization Expense

Amortization expense was $10 million for both the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021.

Acquisition-Related Costs

Acquisition-related costs were $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Restructuring and Other Charges

We incurred restructuring and other charges of approximately $19 million and $6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Restructuring Charges for the three months ended March 31, 2022 primarily included costs related to our proposed acquisition by Rentokil and a $9 million impairment of our Memphis headquarters lease. Restructuring charges for the three months ended March 31, 2021 included severance and costs to simplify our back-office and align administrative functions as a singularly focused pest management company following the sale of the ServiceMaster Brands Divestiture Group.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $11 million and $12 million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Interest and Net Investment Income

Interest and net investment income is comprised primarily of net investment gains from equity investments and interest income on other cash balances. Interest and net investment income was $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Income before Income Taxes

Income before income taxes was $21 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to income before income taxes of $37 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The change in income before income taxes primarily reflects increased Restructuring and Other Charges.

Provision for Income Taxes

The effective tax rate on net income was 14.2 percent and 28.5 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective tax rate net income for the three months ended March 31, 2022, was favorably impacted by the release of a state reserve that was recorded discretely in the quarter.

Net Income

Net income was $19 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to a net income of $27 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, which was primarily driven by a $16 million decrease in Income before Income Taxes offset by a decrease in Provision for Income Taxes of $8 million.

Adjusted EBITDA

The following table provides a summary of changes in Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021:

Table of Contents

Investments in labor increased $6 million, primarily due to higher trainee headcount and talent acquisition expense as we increase our workforce for peak season. Vehicle fuel increased $2 million year over year, driven by higher fuel prices. Termite damage claims expenses increased $3 million due to higher litigated claims counts in the Mobile Bay Area as well as higher cost per Non-Litigated Claim due, in part, to inflationary pressure on building materials and contractor costs. Investments in Terminix Way increased $1 million as we continue to roll-out enhanced onboarding, training and technology to our technicians. Investments in staffing levels and training in both sales and service in our call center increased. Travel expenses increased $1 million due to the easing of COVID-19 travel restrictions.

Termite Damage Claims

A summary of Litigated Claims and Non-Litigated Claims for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was as follows:

Litigated Claims exclude a number of claims in which the only material issue in dispute is the actual amount of repair costs, which are simpler to resolve and less volatile (“Non-Complex Litigated Claims”). The financial impacts of these Non-Complex Litigated Claims are included in the summary of Litigated and Non-Litigated Reserve Activity below and are not material to our financial condition or the results of our operations.

A summary of Litigated Claims and Non-Litigated Claims reserve activity for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 is as follows:

In addition, our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 include charges for legal fees associated with Litigated Claims of $1 million and $1 million, respectively.

Free Cash Flow

Free Cash Flow is not a measurement of our financial performance or liquidity under GAAP and does not purport to be an alternative to net cash provided from operating activities from continuing operations or any other performance or liquidity measures derived in accordance with GAAP. Free Cash Flow means net cash provided from operating activities, less property additions. Free Cash Flow has limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyzing our results as reported under GAAP. Other companies in our industries may calculate Free Cash Flow or similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures differently, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.

Table of Contents

We believe Free Cash Flow is useful as a supplemental measure of our liquidity. We use Free Cash Flow to facilitate company-to-company cash flow comparisons by removing payments for property additions, which may vary from company-to-company for reasons unrelated to operating performance.

The following table reconciles net cash provided from operating activities, which we consider to be the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to Free Cash Flow using data derived from our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods indicated:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

A portion of our liquidity needs are due to service requirements on our indebtedness. The Credit Facilities contain covenants that limit or restrict our ability, including the ability of certain of our subsidiaries, to incur additional indebtedness, repurchase debt, incur liens, sell assets, make certain payments (including dividends) and enter into transactions with affiliates. As of March 31, 2022, we were in compliance with the covenants under the agreements that were in effect on such date.

Our ongoing liquidity needs are expected to be funded by cash on hand, net cash provided by operating activities and, as required, borrowings under the Credit Facilities. As of March 31, 2022, we had $518 million of immediate liquidity, which consisted of available cash and cash equivalents and available borrowings under our Existing Revolving Credit Facility.

At March 31, 2022, there were $22 million of letters of credit outstanding and $348 million of available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility. The letters of credit are posted to satisfy collateral requirements under our automobile, general liability and workers’ compensation insurance program and fuel swap contracts. We also have $89 million of cash collateral under our automobile, general liability and workers’ compensation insurance program that is included as Restricted cash on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position as of March 31, 2022. We may from time to time change the amount of cash or marketable securities used to satisfy collateral requirements under our automobile, general liability and workers’ compensation insurance program. The amount of cash or marketable securities utilized to satisfy these collateral requirements will depend on the relative cost of the issuance of letters of credit under the new Revolving Credit Facility and our cash position. Any change in cash or marketable securities used as collateral would result in a corresponding change in our available borrowing capacity under the new Revolving Credit Facility.

On September 25, 2020, our board of directors approved a three-year $400 million share repurchase program, which funds were exhausted in the third quarter of 2021. On September 21, 2021, our board of directors approved a new three-year $400 million share repurchase program. Under the share repurchase program, the Company may repurchase shares in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations, including Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. As of March 31, 2022, we had $253 million of authority remaining under this program. Given the proposed acquisition by Rentokil, we do not intend to repurchase any shares of our common stock for the foreseeable future.

Under the terms of our fuel swap contracts, we are required to post collateral in the event the fair value of the contracts exceeds a certain agreed upon liability level and in other circumstances required by the agreement with the counterparty. As of March 31, 2022 the estimated fair value of our fuel swap contracts was a net asset of $6 million, and we had posted $2 million in letters of credit as collateral under our fuel hedging program. The continued use of letters of credit for this purpose in the future could limit our ability to post letters of credit for other purposes and could limit our borrowing availability under the Revolving Credit Facility. However, we do not expect the fair value of the outstanding fuel swap contracts to materially impact our financial position or liquidity.

We may from time to time repurchase or otherwise retire or extend our debt and/or take other steps to reduce our debt or otherwise improve our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. These actions may include open market debt repurchases, negotiated repurchases, other retirements of outstanding debt and/or opportunistic refinancing of debt. The amount of debt that may be repurchased or otherwise retired or refinanced, if any, will depend on market conditions, trading levels of our debt, our cash position, compliance with debt covenants and other considerations.

Our Fleet Agreement allows us to obtain fleet vehicles through a leasing program, among other things. We expect to fulfill substantially all of our vehicle fleet needs through the leasing program under the Fleet Agreement. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, we acquired $10 million of vehicles through the leasing program under the Fleet Agreement. All leases under the Fleet Agreement are finance leases for accounting purposes. The lease rental payments include an interest component calculated using a variable rate based on one-month LIBOR plus other contractual adjustments and a borrowing margin ranging from 1.25 percent to 2.45 percent. We have no minimum commitment for the number of vehicles to be obtained under the Fleet Agreement.

We anticipate new lease financings, including the Fleet Agreement and incremental leasing programs, for the full year 2022 will range from $70 million to $80 million. We expect to fulfill all our ongoing vehicle fleet needs through vehicle finance leases.

Other Capital Requirements

We anticipate capital expenditures for the full year 2022 will range from $30 million to $40 million, reflecting ongoing technology projects and recurring capital needs. We incurred $7 million of such costs in the three months ended March 31, 2022.

Limitations on Distributions and Dividends by Subsidiaries

We are a holding company, and as such have no independent operations or material assets other than ownership of equity interests in our subsidiaries. We depend on our subsidiaries to distribute funds to us so that we may pay obligations and expenses, including satisfying obligations with respect to indebtedness. The ability of our subsidiaries to make distributions and dividends to us depends on their operating results, cash requirements and financial condition and general business conditions, as well as restrictions under the laws of our subsidiaries’ jurisdictions.

The agreements governing the Credit Facilities may restrict the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends, make loans or otherwise transfer assets to us. Further, our subsidiaries are permitted under the terms of the Credit Facilities and other indebtedness to incur additional indebtedness that may restrict or prohibit the making of distributions, the payment of dividends or the making of loans by such subsidiaries to us.

We consider the earnings in our non-U.S. subsidiaries to be indefinitely reinvested and, accordingly, recorded no deferred income taxes. While undistributed foreign earnings are no longer taxable under U.S. tax principles, actual repatriation from our non-U.S. subsidiaries could still be subject to additional foreign withholding taxes and U.S. state taxes.

Cash Flows

Cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities, as reflected in the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, are summarized in the following table.



	Three Months Ended

(In millions)	2022		2021
Net cash provided from (used for):
Operating activities	$	69	$	75
Investing activities		(40)		(26)
Financing activities		16		(180)
Discontinued operations		9		—

Operating Activities

Net cash provided from operating activities decreased $6 million to $69 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $75 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Net cash provided from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 comprised $75 million in earnings adjusted for non-cash charges and a $7 million decrease in cash required for working capital (an $11 million decrease excluding the working capital impact of accrued interest and taxes), offset, in part, by $14 million in payments related to restructuring and other charges and fumigation related matters. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, working capital requirements were favorably impacted by seasonal activity and the timing of interest and income tax payments.

Net cash provided from operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 comprised $81 million in earnings adjusted for non-cash charges offset, in part, by a $3 million increase in cash required for working capital (a $4 million increase excluding the working capital impact of accrued interest and taxes and $3 million in payments related to restructuring and other charges and acquisition-related costs. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, working capital requirements were unfavorably impacted by the deferral of payroll and income tax payments under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act in 2020 and an increase in prepaid and other current assets. We deferred approximately $30 million of payroll taxes under the CARES Act in 2020 and paid 50 percent of the payroll deferral in 2021.

Investing Activities

Net cash used for investing activities was $40 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $26 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

No cash was paid for business acquisitions for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $22 million in cash paid for business acquisitions for the three months ended March 31, 2021. We expect to continue our tuck-in acquisition program and to periodically evaluate other strategic acquisitions.

Capital expenditures were $7 million and $6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and included recurring capital needs, and information technology projects.

Table of Contents

Cash flows used for notes receivable, net, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $3 million. Cash flows received for notes receivable, net, for the three months ended March 31, 2021 totaled $2 million.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $16 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to net cash used for financing activities of $180 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we received $1 million from the issuance of common stock through the exercise of stock options. In addition, we borrowed $80 million on our Revolving Credit Facility and repaid $65 million of debt. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we repurchased $169 million of common stock and received $4 million from the issuance of common stock through the exercise of stock options. In addition, we repaid $15 million of debt.

Mobile Bay Formosan Termite Settlement

In November 2020, the Company entered into the Settlement with the Office of the AL AG and other Alabama state regulators, primarily related to our termite renewal pricing changes we made in our branches in the Mobile Bay Area in 2019 and certain other termite inspection and treatment practices regarding the control of Formosan termites in that area that allegedly violated the ADTPA. The Settlement provides for: immediate remediation measures to be provided directly to current and former customers in the Mobile Bay Area, including refunds of certain price increases, rebates to certain former customers, the establishment of a $25 million consumer fund and a related receiver to oversee our compliance with these commitments and to act as an arbitrator for certain Non-litigated Claims; the reimbursement of certain investigative and monitoring costs incurred by the AL AG’s office and the Department of Agriculture and Industries; and a university endowment intended to support termite and pest management research with an emphasis on Formosan termite research. The Company has also agreed to pay the state of Alabama $19 million.

Pursuant to the Settlement, we have also agreed to provide the opportunity to reinstate service for certain customers who canceled their services during specified timeframes as well as the retreatment of certain customer premises and a commitment to certain specified response and remediation timeframes for future termite damage claims. We do not expect the financial impact of these remedies to have a material impact on our prospective results of operations or cash flows.

In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company funded the $25 million consumer fund, from which certain monetary liabilities from settlements of, or judgments in, the covered Settlement are paid by the fund’s receiver. The amount in the consumer fund is held in escrow by the receiver and is classified as a deposit within Prepaid expenses and other assets and with an offsetting liability recorded within Accrued liabilities – Other on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. In the second quarter of 2021, the Company recorded an increase in expense related to the settlement of $4 million due to a higher than anticipated customer participation rate. No adjustments were made in the first quarter of 2022. The fund’s receiver paid a total of $ 10 million from escrow through the first quarter of 2022.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The economy and its impact on discretionary consumer spending, labor wages, fuel prices and other material costs, unemployment rates, insurance costs and medical costs could have a material adverse impact on future results of operations.

We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. We have entered into specific financial arrangements, primarily fuel swap agreements and interest rate swap agreements, in the normal course of business to manage certain market risks, with a policy of matching positions and limiting the terms of contracts to relatively short durations. The effect of derivative financial instrument transactions could have a material impact on our financial statements.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes and manage this exposure through the use of variable-rate and fixed-rate debt and by utilizing interest rate swaps.

We have hedged substantially all of our variable rate debt under our interest rate swap and, therefore, we believe our exposure to interest rate fluctuations, when viewed on a net basis, is not material to our overall results of operations. Assuming all revolving loans were fully drawn as of March 31, 2022, each one percentage point change in interest rates would result in an approximate $4 million change in annual interest expense on our Revolving Credit Facility.

Fuel Price Risk

We are exposed to market risk for changes in fuel prices through the consumption of fuel by our vehicle fleet in the delivery of services to our customers. We expect to use approximately 10 million to 12 million gallons of fuel in 2022. As of March 31, 2022, a 10 percent change in fuel prices would result in a change of approximately $4 million in our annual fuel cost before considering the impact of fuel swap contracts.

We use fuel swap contracts to mitigate the financial impact of fluctuations in fuel prices. As of March 31, 2022, we had fuel swap contracts to pay fixed prices for fuel with an aggregate notional amount of $20 million, maturing through 2022. The estimated fair value of these contracts as of March 31, 2022 was a net asset of $6 million. These fuel swap contracts provide a fixed price for approximately 80 to 90 percent of our estimated fuel usage for the remainder of 2022.

Foreign Currency Risk

We are exposed to foreign currency exchange risk in Swedish krona, Norwegian krone, the euro, British pound, Canadian dollar, Mexican peso and Chinese yuan. A strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the currencies of the foreign countries in which we operate can have an impact on our operating results.

We have entered into a cross currency interest rate swap and a net investment hedge to mitigate the financial impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and Swedish krona, our largest foreign currency exposure. These instruments provide a fixed translation rate on our approximately $200 million investment in Nomor. A hypothetical 10 percent adverse movement in foreign currency exchange rates compared to the U.S. dollar relative to exchange rates on March 31, 2022, would have resulted in a change in the fair value of this investment of approximately $20 million. The impact on income and other comprehensive income from these hypothetical changes in foreign currency exchange rates would be substantially offset by the impact such changes would have on the related cross currency swap and net investment hedge contracts, respectively, which are in place for the related foreign currency denominated investment.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer, Brett T. Ponton, and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Robert J. Riesbeck, have evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as required by Rule 13a-15(b) and Rule 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act. Messrs. Ponton and Riesbeck have concluded that both the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2022.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting

No changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
