The ServiceMaster Company Reports Preliminary
Third-Quarter 2013 Financial Results
· Operating revenue increased 3 percent to $929 million
· Net income of $46 million compared to net loss of $704 million a year ago
· Stable Operating Performance(1) of $169 million
· Company announces plans to separate the TruGreen business from the ServiceMaster portfolio on or about December 31, 2013
MEMPHIS, TENN, — November 14, 2013 — The ServiceMaster Company, one of the world’s largest residential and commercial service networks, today announced preliminary unaudited third-quarter 2013 results, including operating revenue of $929 million, an increase of approximately 3 percent compared to the same period in 2012. The increase in revenue was primarily attributable to a strong performance at Terminix versus the prior year period and revenue stabilization at TruGreen.
The company reported third-quarter 2013 net income of $46 million. This compares to a net loss of $704 million one year ago, which included goodwill and trade name impairment charges at TruGreen totaling $845 million. The company reported third-quarter 2013 Operating Performance of $169 million, which was comparable to the same period in 2012. The impact of higher revenue on gross profit in third-quarter 2013 was offset by higher selling expenses, primarily at TruGreen. A reconciliation of Operating Performance to net income is set forth below in this press release.
“Our third-quarter 2013 financial results met our expectations,” said Rob Gillette, ServiceMaster’s chief executive officer. “While the increase in revenue compared to the third quarter of 2012 was primarily attributable to the strong performance at Terminix, all of our business segments produced revenue growth versus prior year.”
“We’ve talked a lot over the past few months about the TruGreen turnaround, and it has now become clear that while we’re making progress,” said Gillette, “TruGreen is on a different earnings growth timeline than the rest of ServiceMaster.”
Gillette said the company plans to separate the TruGreen business from the ServiceMaster portfolio on or about December 31, 2013. “This separation should enable ServiceMaster to concentrate on growth while providing TruGreen the time and focus it needs to make the changes necessary to complete the
1
turnaround of its business. Separating TruGreen from ServiceMaster should allow both companies to realize their full potential faster,” said Gillette.
The separation of the TruGreen business from ServiceMaster is being planned as a tax-free spin-off of TruGreen through a pro rata dividend to the stockholders of ServiceMaster Global Holdings, Inc., the ultimate parent company of ServiceMaster. The separation is subject to a number of important closing conditions, which once completed will result in TruGreen being an independent, private company. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Natixis are acting as financial advisors to ServiceMaster in connection with the proposed separation.
“We believe the most effective way to realize TruGreen’s long-term value is to have it operate as a standalone company,” said TruGreen President David Alexander. “We have the right team and the right plan, and we’re excited about the opportunity ahead of us. What we need to do now is stay focused, execute well and deliver more consistent, reliable performance over the long haul.”
Alexander pointed out that TruGreen has made steady progress over the past several months implementing process and technology improvements that should stabilize its operations and deliver better results.

Terminix
Terminix operating revenue increased 5 percent in the third quarter of 2013, driven by strong termite new unit sales and pricing actions. Operating Performance increased $8 million versus prior year, primarily reflecting the flow-through effect of higher operating revenue.
TruGreen
TruGreen operating revenue increased slightly in the third quarter of 2013, driven by improved price realization. Operating Performance declined $19 million versus prior year, reflecting investments to improve customer service, combined with the impact of process inefficiencies driven, in part, by technology integration issues.
American Home Shield
American Home Shield operating revenue increased 2 percent in the third quarter of 2013, driven by improved price realization and a 2 percent increase in customer counts. Operating Performance increased $10 million versus prior year, reflecting gross profit margin expansion as a result of lower claims costs and the flow-through effect of higher operating revenue.
ServiceMaster Clean
ServiceMaster Clean operating revenue increased 14 percent in the third quarter of 2013, driven primarily by a 10 percent increase in domestic royalty fees and a 25 percent increase in janitorial national account revenue. Operating Performance increased $2 million versus prior year, primarily reflecting gross profit margin expansion as a result of the flow-through effect of higher operating revenue.
Other Operations and Headquarters(3)
Merry Maids operating revenue, which represents over 90 percent of the segment operating revenue, increased 3 percent in the third quarter of 2013, driven primarily by revenue growth in company-owned branches. Segment Operating Performance declined $1 million versus prior year, reflecting discrete corporate costs which more than offset improved Operating Performance results at Merry Maids.
