Rollins, Inc. (NYSE: ROL) announced today that it has completed its acquisition of OPC Services. OPC Services will continue to operate as a separate business, and one of Rollins' Specialty Brands, along with HomeTeam Pest Defense, Northwest Exterminating, Western Pest Services and Waltham Pest Services.

Based in Louisville, Ky., OPC Services was founded in 1972 by the late Lamon Blake and his son Donnie Blake. Together, and as a result of their hard work, dedication, strong customer values and appreciation for what every employee has contributed to the company, OPC Services has grown to become the premier pest management company based in Kentucky.

"We are pleased to partner with OPC Services and are very excited about what the future holds for our teams. I have known Donnie Blake for a long time and have admired Donnie and the company he and his family have built," said Gary Rollins, CEO of Rollins Inc.

"OPC Services goal has always been to provide extraordinary customer service, which aligns with Rollins' mission - to be the best service company in the world," said John Wilson, President and Chief Operating Officer of Rollins Inc. "We look forward to OPC Services joining our family of brands, and we are excited to share best practices while working together to grow our business."

Donnie Blake added, "The OPC Services family is proud to become a member of the Rollins family of companies. Rollins is at heart a family company with the same dedication OPC Services has for customer satisfaction and employee empowerment. We believe becoming a Rollins' Specialty Brands Company is the best decision for continuing OPC Service's brand, core values and culture. We look forward to the opportunities and services that being a member of the Rollins family of companies will provide our customers and team members."

LR Tullius represented and acted as exclusive financial advisor to Okolona Pest Control on the transaction.
