Roper Technologies Announces Record Second Quarter Results

GAAP Revenue Increased 14%; Organic Revenue Increased 9%
GAAP DEPS Increased 26%; Adjusted DEPS Increased 29% to $2.89

Sarasota, Florida, July 26, 2018 ... Roper Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: ROP), a leading diversified technology company, reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2018.

Roper reports results - including revenue, gross margin, earnings before taxes, net income, and diluted earnings per share (“DEPS”) - on both a GAAP basis and an adjusted basis.

Second quarter GAAP revenue increased 14% to $1.29 billion, adjusted revenue increased 13% to $1.30 billion, and organic revenue increased 9%. GAAP and adjusted gross margin were 63.1%, expanding 90 basis points on a GAAP basis and 40 basis points on an adjusted basis. EBITDA increased 14% to $449 million and EBITDA margin expanded 30 basis points to 34.6%.

GAAP earnings before taxes grew 23% to $313 million and adjusted earnings before taxes grew 17% to $392 million. GAAP DEPS was $2.19, a 26% increase, while adjusted DEPS was $2.89, a 29% increase. Operating cash flow increased 55% to $266 million.

"We delivered another record quarter with strong, broad-based growth across each of our four reporting segments as we continue to create value in our diverse set of niche markets,” said Brian Jellison, Roper’s Chairman, President, and CEO. “Our 9% organic revenue growth combined with nimble execution throughout our businesses drove margin expansion and record operating cash flow.”

“During the second quarter, we added another industry-leading, niche application software business to our family with the acquisition of PowerPlan. We also announced an agreement to divest our Gatan business, which will enhance our ability to deploy capital in the future and continue to drive value for our shareholders. As a result of continued positive momentum across the enterprise, we are raising our 2018 guidance and remain on track for a record year," concluded Mr. Jellison.

2018 Guidance

The Company now expects full year Adjusted DEPS of $11.40 - $11.56, compared to previous guidance of $11.08 - $11.32.

For the third quarter of 2018, the Company expects Adjusted DEPS of $2.89 - $2.95.

The Company’s guidance excludes the impact of future acquisitions or divestitures, and also excludes the impact of the pending Gatan divestiture.
