The year [removed: 2013] [added: 2014] marked the Company’s [removed: 16th] [added: 17th] consecutive year of reporting improved [removed: results of] revenue and profit.
In [removed: 2013] [added: 2014] the Company’s revenue grew [removed: 5.2%,] [added: 5.5%,] with growth in all lines of service.

We will continue to look for better ways to do what we do [removed: in providing] [added: to provide] our customers with premiere service that [removed: addresses] [added: facilitates] their pest control needs.
[removed: Results] [added: Results] of Operations—2013 Versus [removed: 2012][added: 2012]
The Company remained flat in its depreciation and amortization margin [removed: in 2013] at 3.0% in 2013 and 2012.
Residential pest control represented approximately 41% of the Company’s business and increased [removed: 6.1%] [added: 4.5%] driven by increased leads, closure and pricing as well as increased capture of [removed: TAEXX] [added: TAEXX®] homebuilder [removed: installations and] [added: installations,] bed bug [removed: revenues.][added: revenues and acquisitions.]
While most costs increased during the year due to the Company’s early 2013 and late 2012 acquisitions, service salaries, personnel related costs and materials and supplies increased due to increased sales, increased [removed: TAEXX] [added: TAEXX®] installations and higher group medical insurance premiums.
[removed: _(Gain)/loss] [added: _Gain] on [removed: Sales/Impairment] [added: Sales] of assets, Net_
[removed: (Gain)/loss] [added: Gain] on [removed: sales/impairment] [added: sales] of assets, net decreased to $0.2 million gain for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to $0.5 million gain in 2012.

Sales, general and administrative expense decreased in [removed: 2012] [added: 2014] to [removed: 32.1%] [added: 31.3%] of revenue versus [removed: 32.3%] [added: 32.0%] in [removed: 2011.][added: 2013.]
The [removed: Company experienced a reduction in its depreciation and amortization margin to 3.0% in 2012 versus 3.1% in 2011] [added: increase is] due to [removed: several assets being fully depreciated, partially offset by] amortization of intangible assets acquired in [removed: 2011.][added: late 2013 and early 2014 partially offset by several fixed and intangible assets being fully depreciated or amortized.]
The Company had net income of [removed: $111.3] [added: $137.7] million [added: in 2014] compared to [removed: $100.7] [added: $123.3] million in [removed: 2011, a 10.5%] [added: 2013, an 11.6%] increase.
Revenues for the year ended December 31, [removed: 2012] [added: 2014] were [removed: $1.3] [added: $1.412] billion, an increase of [removed: $65.8] [added: $74.2] million or 5.5% from [removed: 2011] [added: 2013] revenues of [removed: $1.2] [added: $1.337] billion.
Commercial pest control represented approximately [removed: 41.0%] [added: 41%] of the Company’s business in [removed: 2012] [added: 2014] and grew [removed: 3.7%] [added: 6.7%] in [removed: 2012] [added: 2014] due to increases in [removed: sales,] [added: sales and] bed bug revenues and [removed: revenues from 2011] acquisitions.
Residential pest control represented approximately [removed: 41.0%] [added: 41%] of the Company’s business and increased [removed: 8.0%] [added: 6.1%] driven by increased leads, closure and [removed: pricing.][added: pricing as well as increased capture of TAEXX® homebuilder installations.]
The Company’s termite business, which represented approximately [removed: 18.0%] [added: 17%] of the Company’s revenue, grew [removed: 4.0%] [added: 5.0%] in [removed: 2012] [added: 2014] due to increases in ancillary [removed: services] [added: service] sales as well as [removed: the Company’s expanded sales force] [added: increases in customers from cross-selling campaigns,] and [removed: price increases.][added: acquisitions.]
The Company’s foreign operations accounted for approximately 8% of total revenues for the years ended December 31, [removed: 2012] [added: 2014] and [removed: 2011.][added: 2013.]
Orkin had [removed: 79] [added: 92] and [removed: 76] [added: 80] total domestic and international franchises at December 31, [removed: 2012] [added: 2014] and [removed: 2011,] [added: 2013,] respectively.

The Company’s depreciation and amortization margin increased 0.1 point to 3.1 % in 2014 compared to 3.0% in 2013.
Net profit margin improved to 9.8% in 2014 from 9.2% in 2013.
The Company implemented its traditional price increase program in June 2014.
The Company’s acquisitions accounted for less than 2% of the revenue increase.
Nearly 80.0% of the Company’s revenue was recurring in 2014 and 2013.
The Company established new franchises in Brazil, China, Ecuador, Egypt, Guatemala, Honduras, Paraguay, Puerto Rico Saudi Arabia, Uruguay, and the US Virgin Islands in 2014 for a total of 37 international franchises at December 31, 2014 with 26 at December 31, 2013.
Gross margin for the year was 49.9% for 2014 and 49.3% for 2013 due to favorable termite and casualty claim development, reduced fleet costs and good cost controls across most spending categories.
The dollar increase was due primarily to amortization related to acquisitions that occurred over the previous 12 months.
As a percentage of revenues, SG&A decreased due to the Company being able to leverage our administrative and sales salaries against higher revenues, along with a lower advertising run rate than the prior year.
The Company recognized gains from the sale of owned vehicles and property in 2014 and 2013.
Interest (income)/expense, net for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $0.3 million income, a decrease of $0.1 million compared to $0.4 million in 2013.
The Company’s effective tax rate was 37.3% in 2014 compared to 35.6% in 2013, due primarily to state and foreign income taxes, and the release of certain deferred tax liabilities in 2013.
Less than 2.0% of the Company’s revenue increase came from pricing actions.
Interest income for the year is due to interest received on cash balances in the Company’s various cash accounts.

The Credit Agreement was amended on October 30, 2014 to extend the maturity date to October 31, 2018 and add three optional one year extensions.

The provision of the new guidance was effective as of the beginning of our 2014 fiscal year.
Adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s reported results of operations or financial position.
The provision of the new guidance was effective as of the beginning of our 2014 fiscal year.
Adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s reported results of operations or financial position.
In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205 and 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosure of Disposals of Components of an Entity.
ASU 2014-08 amends the definition for what types of asset disposals are to be considered discontinued operations, and amends the required disclosures for discontinued operations and assets held for sale.
ASU 2014-08 also enhances the convergence of the FASB’s and the International Accounting Standard Board’s reporting requirements for discontinued operations.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (ASU 2014-09) which requires companies to recognize revenue when a customer obtains control rather than when companies have transferred substantially all risks and rewards of a good or service.
ASU 2014-09 is effective retrospectively for the annual or interim reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09 on its financial statements.
In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, Income Statement-Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Topic 225): Income Statement-Extraordinary and Unusual Items (ASU 2015-01) eliminate the GAAP concept of extraordinary items.
The new guidance eliminates the separate presentation of extraordinary items, net of tax and the related earnings per share, but does not affect the requirement to disclose material items that are unusual in nature or infrequently occurring.
The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2015.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
We do not expect this standard to have a material impact on the Company’s reported results of operations or financial position.
Further in February 2014 we expanded our international footprint by acquiring Allpest WA located in Perth, Australia.

Net profit margin improved to 8.8% in 2012 from 8.4% in 2011.
The Company established new franchises in Mexico, China, Turks and Caicos Islands and Chile for a total of 22 and 18 international franchises at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.
Gross margin for the year was 49.0% for 2012 and 48.8% for 2011.
While all costs increased during the year due to the Company’s early 2012 and late 2011 acquisitions, insurance and claims expense increased but was partially offset by lower termite provision claims and telephone costs were down marginally due to cost controls, partially offset by higher personnel related costs including payroll taxes and group premiums.
The increase is due to amortization of intangible assets acquired in late 2011 and early 2012 partially offset by several intangible assets being fully amortized.
As a percentage of revenues, SG&A decreased due to reductions in professional services due to timing of projects and reduced salaries as a percentage of revenues as the Company continues to maximize efficiency in its workforce.
Interest expense, net for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $14 thousand, a decrease of $0.5 million compared to $0.5 million in 2011 due to the pay-off of the remainder of the Company’s outstanding borrowings in 2011.
_Pension Settlement_
Management terminated its wholly-owned subsidiary’s (Waltham Services, LLC) salaried pension plan and recorded a settlement loss, which resulted in an additional expense of $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2012.
The Company recognized gains from the sale of owned vehicles and property in Canada in 2012 while recognizing impairment on software related to terminated projects for approximately $0.5 million in 2011.
The Company’s effective tax rate was 37.0% in 2012 compared to 37.5% in 2011, due primarily to differences in state tax rates.

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment (ASU 2012-02).
This standard provides new accounting guidance that permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test.
An entity would continue to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset if the asset fails the qualitative assessment, while no further analysis would be required if it passes.
This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2014; we do not expect the new guidance to have a material effect on our financial statements.
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity.
The objective of the amendments in this Update is to resolve the diversity in practice about whether Subtopic 810-10, Consolidation—Overall, or Subtopic 830-30, Foreign Currency Matters—Translation of Financial Statements, applies to the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business (other than a sale of in substance real estate or conveyance of oil and gas mineral rights) within a foreign entity.

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment (ASU 2012-02).
This standard provides new accounting guidance that permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative impairment test.
An entity would continue to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset if the asset fails the qualitative assessment, while no further analysis would be required if it passes.
This guidance is effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of 2014; we do not expect the new guidance to have a material effect on our financial statements.
In March 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent’s Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity.
The objective of the amendments in this Update is to resolve the diversity in practice about whether Subtopic 810-10, Consolidation—Overall, or Subtopic 830-30, Foreign Currency Matters—Translation of Financial Statements, applies to the release of the cumulative translation adjustment into net income when a parent either sells a part or all of its investment in a foreign entity or no longer holds a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets that is a nonprofit activity or a business (other than a sale of in substance real estate or conveyance of oil and gas mineral rights) within a foreign entity.
