ITEM 4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

A.   History and Development of the Company
-------------------------------------------
Rentokil Initial plc was incorporated on 15 March 2005. It is a public limited company domiciled in the UK. The Group has maintained a listing on the London Stock Exchange since 1969 (through Rentokil Initial 1927 plc), with the Company introduced as a new holding company in 2005. The Company is registered in England and Wales under the UK Companies Act 1985 with company registration number 05393279 and its registered office is at Compass House, Manor Royal, Crawley, West Sussex, RH10 9PY, UK (Tel: +44 (0)1293 858000). From March 2005 until June 2005, the Company was called Rentokil Initial 2005 plc. On 21 June 2005, the Company changed its name to Rentokil Initial plc.
In 1996, we acquired BET plc (British Electric Traction) and the “Initial” brand to become Rentokil Initial. In 2022, we acquired Terminix Global Holdings, Inc. (“Terminix”), the most recognised brand in U.S. termite and pest management services.
Our purpose is to protect people, enhance lives and preserve our planet. We protect people from the dangers of pest-borne disease and the risks of poor hygiene. We enhance lives with services that protect the health and wellbeing of people and the reputation of our customers’ brands. We aim to preserve the planet by developing ever more sustainable solutions and ways of operating.
