                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (Unaudited)


NOTE 1.           BASIS OF PREPARATION

                  The  consolidated  financial  statements  included herein have
                  been prepared by the Company,  without audit,  pursuant to the
                  rules  and   regulations   of  the   Securities  and  Exchange
                  Commission.  Footnote  disclosures  normally  included  in the
                  financial  statements  prepared in accordance  with accounting
                  principles  generally  accepted in the United States have been
                  condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

                  These  consolidated  financial  statements  should  be read in
                  conjunction  with the financial  statements  and related notes
                  contained in the Company's  annual report on Form 10-K for the
                  year ended December 31, 1999.

                  In the  opinion  of  management,  the  consolidated  financial
                  statements   included  herein  contain  all  normal  recurring
                  adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position
                  of the Company as of March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, and
                  the  results of  operations  and cash  flows for the  quarters
                  ended  March 31,  2000 and  1999.  Operating  results  for the
                  quarter ended March 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of
                  the results that may be expected  for the year ended  December
                  31, 2000.

                  In 1997,  the  Financial  Accounting  Standards  Board  issued
                  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards  No. 130 (SFAS
                  130), "Reporting  Comprehensive  Income," effective for fiscal
                  years  beginning  after  December 15,  1997.  For the quarters
                  ended  March 31,  2000 and 1999,  comprehensive  income is not
                  materially  different  from net income and,  as a result,  the
                  impact  of  SFAS  130  is  not   reflected  in  the  Company's
                  consolidated financial statements included herein.

                  Certain  amounts for prior periods have been  reclassified  to
                  conform  with  the  current  period   consolidated   financial
                  statement  presentation.  Such reclassifications had no effect
                  on previously reported net income.


NOTE 2.           PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

                  The book provision for income taxes includes the liability for
                  state income taxes, net of the federal income tax benefit. The
                  deferred  provision  for income  taxes arises from the changes
                  during the year in the  Company's  net  deferred  tax asset or
                  liability.

NOTE 4.           LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

                  One  of  the  Company's   subsidiaries,   Orkin  Exterminating
                  Company,  Inc., is a named  defendant in Helen Cutler and Mary
                  Lewin v. Orkin Exterminating  Company., Inc. et al. pending in
                  the District Court of Houston County,  Alabama. The plaintiffs
                  in the above  mentioned  case  filed suit in March of 1996 and
                  are seeking monetary damages and injunctive relief for alleged
                  breach of contract arising out of alleged missed or inadequate
                  reinspections.  The attorneys for the plaintiffs  contend that
                  the case is  suitable  for a class  action  and the  court has
                  ruled that the plaintiffs would be permitted to pursue a class
                  action lawsuit against Orkin.  The Company  believes this case
                  to be without merit and intends to defend itself vigorously at
                  trial.  At this  time,  the final  outcome  of the  litigation
                  cannot be determined. However, it is the opinion of Management
                  that the  ultimate  resolution  of this action will not have a
                  material adverse effect on the Company's  financial  position,
                  results of operations or liquidity.

                  Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Company is
                  a  defendant  in  a  number  of  lawsuits  which  allege  that
                  plaintiffs  have been damaged as a result of the  rendering of
                  services by Company  personnel and  equipment.  The Company is
                  actively  contesting  these  actions.  It is  the  opinion  of
                  Management  that the outcome of these  actions will not have a
                  material adverse effect on the Company's  financial  position,
                  results of operations or liquidity.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
         of Operations.

The Company  reported  net income of $794,000 or $0.03 per share for the quarter
compared to net income of $467,000 or $0.02 per share for the comparable quarter
in 1999.  Revenues for the first quarter ended March 31, 2000 increased 15.1% to
$149.6 million.

The   improvement   in  earnings  for  the  quarter   resulted   primarily  from
quarter-over-quarter increases in both pest and termite control revenue and Cost
of  Services   Provided  and   Selling,   General  and   Administrative   margin
improvements.  The  improvements  in revenue and Cost of Services  Provided  and
Selling,  General and Administrative margins were partially offset by a decrease
in Interest  Income and a $203,000  increase in Provision  (Benefit)  for Income
Taxes.

The Company's revenue  improvement for the eighth consecutive  quarter continued
the positive  momentum  initiated in 1998. The Company believes the improvements
in  revenue  and net  income  resulted  from last  year's  acquisitions  and the
strategic programs initiated in 1998 and 1997 to build recurring revenue, expand
the Company's commercial pest control business and contain termite claims costs.

Results of Operations

Revenues  increased  to $149.6  million for the first  quarter  2000 from $129.9
million for the same period of 1999,  primarily as a result of increases in pest
control  customer  base and in average  termite  completion  and annual  renewal
prices. The Company believes the increase in pest control customer base resulted
from last  year's  acquisitions  and the  success of its more  consumer-friendly
selling and treatment programs.

Cost of Services Provided was approximately  $10.2 million higher than the prior
year quarter but improved to represent 58.2% of revenues compared with 59.2% for
the same quarter of the prior year. The improvement  was primarily  attributable
to reductions  in termite  claims  experience  and  operating  insurance  costs,
partially  offset by increased  pest service  salaries  resulting from increased
revenue and headcount.

Selling,  General  and  Administrative  increased  $6.6  million  or  13.1%  but
decreased as a percentage of revenues to 38.1%  compared with 38.8% for the same
quarter of the prior year.  The  improvement  as a  percentage  of revenues  was
primarily due to better leveraging of fixed costs due to higher revenues.

Interest  Income  decreased  $1.1 million  primarily due to lower invested funds
over the same period of the prior year.

The Company's net tax provision of $487,000 for the quarter  reflects  increased
taxable  income,  as compared to a provision of $284,000 for the same quarter in
1999.

The Company believes its current cash balances, future cash flows from operating
activities  and  line of  credit  will be  sufficient  to  finance  its  current
operations  and  obligations,  and  fund  expansion  of  the  business  for  the
foreseeable  future. The Company  experienced  positive cash flow from operating
activities  during the first  quarter 2000 of $1.4  million,  compared with cash
provided by  operating  activities  of  approximately  $4.6  million in the same
period of 1999. This decrease  resulted  primarily from  unfavorable  changes in
working  capital  related  primarily  to  differences  in the timing of accounts
receivable,  accounts  payable and other accrued  expenses,  partially offset by
higher net income from operations, adjusted for non-cash items.

The Company  invested  approximately  $7.4 million in capital  expenditures  and
acquisitions in the first quarter 2000, and expects to invest  between $20.0 and
$25.0 million in the remainder  of  2000,  inclusive  of  improvements  to its
management  information systems.  Capital expenditures in the first quarter 2000
consisted  primarily of equipment  replacements and upgrades and improvements to
the Company's  management  information systems. A total of $1.5 million was paid
in cash  dividends  during the first  quarter  2000.  The capital  expenditures,
acquisitions  and cash  dividends were  primarily  funded through  existing cash
balances,  marketable securities and operating activities. The Company maintains
a $40.0 million line of credit,  which is available for future  acquisitions and
growth, if needed.

In 1997 and 1998,  Orkin and other  pest  control  industry  companies  received
letters from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) advising of its investigation of
the pest control industry - more specifically,  the termite and moisture control
practices of the industry - and requesting certain information  voluntarily from
the Company.  Orkin has voluntarily  provided the information  requested and has
advised the FTC of the Company's  intention to continue to cooperate  fully with
this  investigation.  At this point in time,  management  does not believe  this
investigation  will have a material  effect  upon its results of  operations  or
financial condition.  In addition, the Company is aggressively defending a class
action lawsuit filed in Dothan,  Alabama. For further discussion,  see Note 4 to
the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Year 2000 Issues

Aware that the Year 2000 (Y2K)  information  technology  programming issue could
have a  significant  potential  impact on its future  operations  and  financial
reporting,  the Company began its assessment and  remediation  processes in 1997
regarding its primary financial and operating systems.  The Company's assessment
activities  included (1) identifying  all software and operating  systems - both
information  technology (IT) systems and non-IT systems with embedded technology
- - which are critical to operations  and/or financial  reporting,  (2) testing of
such software and systems for Y2K compliance,  and (3) obtaining assurances from
the  Company's  vendors  and  its  large  commercial  customers.  The  Company's
remediation   activities  included  replacing  certain  software  and  operating
systems, followed by testing to ensure the Y2K compliancy of the replacements.

As of April 28,  2000,  the Company has not  experienced  any  material  adverse
effects  as a result of Y2K  related  problems.  Although  the  Company  has not
endured  any  material  adverse Y2K  effects  and does not  anticipate  any such
problems,  it is possible  that  certain Y2K problems may exist but have not yet
materialized.  The total  amount of Y2K  expenditures  as of March 31,  2000 was
approximately $19.7 million. Any additional Y2K expenditures are not expected to
have a material  impact on the Company's  results of  operations,  cash flows or
financial position.

Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In 1998, the Financial  Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities."  In second quarter 1999, the Financial  Accounting  Standards Board
voted to delay the  effective  date of this  standard to fiscal years  beginning
after June 15, 2000. The adoption of this standard, effective for the Company as
of  January  1, 2001,  is not  expected  to  materially  impact  the  results of
operations or financial condition of the Company.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Form 10-Q  contains  forward-looking  statements  within the meaning of the
Private  Securities   Litigation  Reform  Act  of  1995.  Such   forward-looking
statements  include  statements  regarding the expected impact of the outcome of
litigation  arising in the  ordinary  course of business  and the outcome of the
Helen  Cutler and Mary  Lewin v.  Orkin  Exterminating  Company.,  Inc.,  et al.
("Cutler")  litigation on the Company's financial  condition,  and the Company's
ability to fund current operations and obligations and proposed  expansion.  The
actual results of the Company could differ  materially  from those  indicated by
the  forward-looking  statements  because  of  various  risks and  uncertainties
including,  without  limitation,  the  possibility of a court ruling against the
Company in litigation or in the Cutler litigation;  general economic conditions;
market  risk;  changes in  industry  practices  or  technologies;  the degree of
success of the Company's  termite  process  reforms and pest control selling and
treatment  methods;  the Company's ability to identify  potential  acquisitions;
climate and weather  trends;  competitive  factors  and pricing  practices;  the
failure of the Company or its major suppliers or customers to adequately address
the Year 2000 programming issue; potential increases in labor costs; and changes
in various government laws and regulations, including environmental regulations.
All of the  foregoing  risks and  uncertainties  are beyond  the  ability of the
Company to control,  and in many cases the Company  cannot predict the risks and
uncertainties  that could  cause its actual  results to differ  materially  from
those indicated by the forward-looking statements.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The Company maintains an investment portfolio,  comprised of U.S. government and
corporate debt securities, which is subject to interest rate risk exposure. This
risk  is  managed  through  conservative  policies  to  invest  in  high-quality
obligations.  The Company has  performed an interest rate  sensitivity  analysis
using a duration  model over the near term with a 10% change in interest  rates.
The Company's  portfolio is not subject to material  interest rate risk exposure
based on this analysis,  and no material changes in market risk exposures or how
those risks are managed are expected.

PART II  OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.           Legal Proceedings.

                  See  Note 4 to  Part  I,  Item  1 for  discussion  of  certain
                  litigation.

Item 2.           Changes in Securities and Use of Proceeds.

                  On March 1, 2000,  the Company  acquired the pest  elimination
                  business of R-S Exterminating  Company,  partially in exchange
                  for 152,675 shares of the Company's  Common Stock.  The market
                  value  of the  Common  Stock  issued  was  approximately  $2.4
                  million,  which the  Company  believes  approximates  the fair
                  value of the net assets acquired.  Since the issuance of these
                  shares was not a public issuance, these shares of Common Stock
                  were  exempt from  registration  under the  Securities  Act of
                  1933, as amended, Section 4, Paragraph 2.
