Rentokil: Industry Tailwinds, A Turnaround, And A High Caliber Activist Investor

RTO
Published: March 20, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

The pest control industry is attractive due to its capital-light, non-cyclical nature, providing relatively predictable revenue streams. This feature is being enhanced through greater sales through subscriptions and long-term contracts. Meanwhile, the industry benefits from a growth tailwind due to greater urbanisation, a regulatory push on commercial customers, and global warming potentially increasing insect populations. Rentokil's stock has declined over 50% from its peak price. We believe this is attributed primarily from challenges in integrating the Terminix acquisition. We believe this is a fixable problem.
