General Operating Comments

In the second quarter, the Company continued to execute strategic plans to
build on their dedication to customer service and investments for long-term
growth.  Investments in the core businesses include a renewed emphasis on
recurring monthly pest control, increased focus on Commercial opportunities,
and expanding the number of locations.  During the quarter, the Company
repurchased 402,000 shares of their common stock, confirming  management's and
the Board of Directors' confidence in the Company's future.

Revenues for the second quarter ended June 30, 1996 increased 1.4% or $2.5
million, to $177.8 million from the prior year period.  Operating income
decreased $13.5 million to $21.7 million for the quarter,  while net income
decreased 39.1% to $12.8 million.  Earnings per share were 36 cents versus 59
cents for the second quarter 1995.  Year-to-date, net income decreased 33.5%
to $19.2 million and earnings per share were 54 cents versus 81 cents last
year.

For the quarter, the Orkin's operating income decreased 39.0% to $20.7 million
on a 1.2% revenue increase to $159.3 million.  Operating margins were 13.0%,
compared to 21.6% in the prior year. Rollins Protective Services' (RPS)
operating income increased 0.5% to $1.4 million on a revenue increase of $1.3
million or 9.0% to $16.0 million.  RPS' operating margins were 8.9% compared
to 9.7% last year.

For the six months ended June 30, 1996, Orkin's revenue increased 0.4% with
operating income declining 31.9%.  Operating margins were 11.3%, compared to
16.6% for the same period last year.  RPS revenue increased 8.4% while
operating income decreased 1.8%. Operating margins declined from 9.6% to 8.7%.
Detail segment information follows.


Orkin 1996 Versus 1995 
Orkin realized an increase in pest control revenue and customer base,
supporting the strategic decision to continue emphasizing recurring monthly
pest control.  However, due to the effect of the unexpected, severe and
extended winter weather, the pest control revenue increase is offset by a
decrease in termite revenue.  The termite business continues to be an
important part of Orkin's business mix, however Orkin will continue their
strategic marketing and customer service programs toward expansion of the less
weather sensitive recurring pest control segment.  To augment the positive
results in the recurring pest control business, a Commercial Pest Control
Division was created during the second quarter.

The decrease in operating income was the result of the termite sales
shortfall, combined with increased claims and legal expenses and planned
investments in sales and service staffing.  Business development activities
included 20 new branch and franchise openings during the first six months,
compared to 14 for all of 1995.

Rollins Protective Services (RPS) 1996 Versus 1995

During the second quarter, RPS completed it's second acquisition for the year,
with the acquisition of Protect-A-Life Corporation in the Philadelphia area. 
Acquisitions are an important component of growth for RPS.

RPS operating margins were impacted by investments in new, dedicated
commercial branches and costs associated with acquisitions during the last
twelve months.  Operating income improvements are expected to be realized this
year through RPS' focus on the System VII product sales, Commercial sales and
service initiatives, cross-marketing efficiencies from the National Customer
Support Center, and acquisitions.


Other 1996 Versus 1995

Other businesses revenue and operating income decreased for the quarter due to
revisions of the Company's credit and internal operating policies within the
consumer finance area, Rollins Acceptance Company (RAC).  The volume of
Company financed sales is lower than last year, as the revised policies
redirected marketing efforts toward stronger customer demographics
inconjunction with a lower termite demand.

The expanded physical facility, increased collector headcount, and new
computers and phone dialing equipment caused margin deterioration, however
these investments have better positioned RAC to more effectively manage the
receivables portfolio and function as a marketing support operation.

Rollins, Inc.'s financial position remained solid.  The Company's operations
have historically provided a strong positive cash flow which represents the
Company's principal source of funds.  Management believes that this liquidity,
along with expected cash from operations, will support the Company's continued
growth, capital expenditures, cash dividends, and expansion plans.

Interest income increased 28.6% for the six months ended June 30, 1996, due to
the increase in average funds invested in short-term investments and
marketable securities, coupled with the increase in the average rate of return.

Net trade receivables increased $2.3 million or 2.6% at June 30, 1996 compared
with December 31, 1995.  Trade receivables include installment receivables
which are due subsequent to one year from the balance sheet date.  These
amounts were approximately $21.9 million and $26.2 million at June 30, 1996
and December 31, 1995, respectively.

During the six month period, the Company invested $11.9 million in capital
expenditures and acquisitions.  Also, $10.4 million was paid out in cash
dividends.  The Company maintains a $40.0 million unused line of credit.  This
source of funds has not been used, but is available for future acquisitions
and growth, if needed.
