â–²(8.71% Upside)
Action:Reiterated
Date:05/20/26
Score is driven by strong profitability and free-cash-flow performance, reinforced by a guidance raise and active capital returns. The main offset is weak technical trend/momentum with the stock trading below key moving averages, plus slower recent top-line growth and some margin pressure/leverage considerations.
Positive Factors
Strong free cash flow generation and conversion
Consistently high FCF (~$2.5B TTM) and near-1.0x FCF-to-net-income conversion indicate durable earnings quality and cash conversion. This supports organic reinvestment, disciplined M&A, dividends and buybacks over the next several quarters without depending on volatile external funding.
Negative Factors
Revenue growth has decelerated recently
A material slowdown to ~2.7% TTM growth and near-flat 2025 weakens operating leverage and increases reliance on acquisitions to hit growth targets. Over 2–6 months, slower organic growth raises execution risk for margin expansion and makes long-term EPS gains more dependent on successful M&A.

Roper Technologies Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Apr 23, 2026
(Q1-2026)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Jul 23, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call emphasized a strong start to 2026 with robust revenue, EBITDA, EPS and free cash flow growth, a raised DEPS guide, active share repurchases and accelerating AI commercialization across the portfolio. Offsetting factors include margin pressure driven by TEP mix and raw material costs, margin impact from recent acquisitions and early-stage Convoy investments, and ongoing demand timing risk in Deltek GovCon and freight markets. Management framed near-term conservatism into guidance (no assumed GovCon or freight recovery) while highlighting longer-term secular tailwinds from SaaS transitions and AI-driven TAM expansion. Overall, the positives (top-line beat, cash generation, guidance raise, AI momentum and capital flexibility) materially outweigh the noted operational and market headwinds.Positive Updates
Strong Top-Line and Organic Growth
Q1 revenue of $2.1 billion, up 11% year-over-year; organic revenue +6%. Full-year total revenue growth guidance maintained at ~8% with organic guidance of 5%–6%.
Negative Updates
Margin Pressure Driven by TEP Mix and Input Costs
Core EBITDA margin was down ~70 basis points enterprise-wide, driven by lower gross margins in the TEP segment due to a mix shift toward consumables (NDI, Verathon) and higher input costs at Neptune (bronze/ingot inflation). TEP EBITDA margin fell to 33.6%, down ~260 bps YoY.

Company Guidance
Roper raised full‑year adjusted DEPS to $21.80–$22.05 (up $0.50 at the midpoint from $21.30–$21.55) and set Q2 adjusted DEPS at $5.25–$5.30, while maintaining full‑year total revenue growth of ~8% and organic growth of 5%–6%; guidance assumes a tax rate near 21% (a bit lower in Q2) and expressly does not assume a GovCon inflection at Deltek or a freight recovery at DAT, nor a Neptune turnaround (modest top‑line weakness there). Management said the raise reflects the Q1 beat (Q1 DEPS $5.16 on $2.1B revenue, +11% revenue / +6% organic) and executed buybacks, and noted they exited Q1 with ~102.4M shares outstanding, 3.1x net debt/EBITDA, $383M cash and $2.0B drawn on the revolver; the board added $3.0B of repurchase authorization (leaving $3.8B remaining) and the company has north of $5B of capital deployment firepower over the next 12 months.Roper Technologies Financial Statement Overview
