Rollins’ debt level has decreased quarter over quarter. Total debt at the end of third-quarter 2021 was $68 million, down from the $88 million recorded at the end of the prior quarter. The total debt to total capital ratio of 0.06 was lower than the previous quarter's 0.08. Lower debt-to-capitalization ratio indicates that the proportion of debt to finance the company’s assets is declining and so is the risk of insolvency. Further, cash and cash equivalent balance of $118 million at the end of the quarter was more than enough to meet the short-term debt of $19 million.

Some Risks

Rollins’ margin stayed pressed in the third quarter of 2021 due increase in labor- and fuel-related expenses. Adjusted EBITDA margin of 23.2% declined 60 basis points (bps) year over year.
