Roper Technologies Announces Second Quarter Financial Results

SARASOTA, Fla., July 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Roper Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: ROP) reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Second quarter GAAP diluted earnings per share (“DEPS”) was $2.52. During the second quarter, Roper announced an agreement to sell a majority stake in its industrial businesses. The financial results for these businesses are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Including the industrial businesses, adjusted DEPS was $3.95, compared to second quarter guidance of $3.80 – $3.84.

On a continuing operations basis, GAAP and adjusted revenue increased 10% to $1.31 billion, while organic revenue grew 11%. Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations increased 10% to $515 million.

"Our businesses delivered another great quarter with broad-based strength across the enterprise," said Neil Hunn, Roper Technologies’ President and CEO. "The combination of double-digit software recurring revenue growth and robust product demand generated organic revenue growth of 11%. As a result of our strong Q2 results and continued positive momentum across the portfolio, we are increasing our full year outlook."

"As previously announced, during the quarter we reached an agreement to sell a majority stake in our industrial businesses, which will meaningfully enhance the quality of our enterprise," said Mr. Hunn. "Roper’s go-forward portfolio is better positioned to generate higher and less cyclical organic revenue growth, while benefiting from an improved working capital position and continued strong cash conversion. Including the net proceeds from this transaction, our M&A firepower will expand to more than $7 billion, which will be targeted toward our large pipeline of high-quality acquisition opportunities."

Initiating Continuing Operations Guidance

Roper is initiating full year 2022 guidance for adjusted DEPS from continuing operations of $13.46 – $13.62. On a comparable basis, excluding $2.30 for the industrial businesses now reported as discontinued operations, previous guidance would have been $13.20 – $13.45.

For the third quarter of 2022, the Company expects adjusted DEPS from continuing operations of $3.42 – $3.46.

The Company’s guidance excludes the impact of unannounced future acquisitions or divestitures, as well as any redeployment of proceeds from announced or completed divestitures.

Discontinued Operations

On June 1, 2022, Roper announced an agreement to sell a majority stake in its industrial businesses, including its entire historical Process Technologies reportable segment (AMOT, CCC, Cornell, FTI, Metrix, PAC, Roper Pump, and Viatran) and the industrial businesses within its historical Measurement & Analytical Solutions reportable segment (Alpha, Dynisco, Hansen, Hardy, Logitech, Struers, Technolog, and Uson). The financial results for these businesses are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Roper has completed the divestitures of the TransCore, Zetec, and CIVCO Radiotherapy businesses. The financial results for these businesses are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented.
