Roper Technologies announces second quarter financial results

SARASOTA, Fla., July 24, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Roper Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: ROP) reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024. The results in this press release are presented on a continuing operations basis.

Second quarter 2024 highlights

  • Revenue increased 12% to $1.72 billion; organic revenue increased 4%
  • GAAP DEPS decreased 7% to $3.12; adjusted DEPS increased 9% to $4.48
  • GAAP net earnings decreased 7% to $337 million; adjusted net earnings increased 9% to $483 million
  • Adjusted EBITDA increased 13% to $695 million
  • Operating cash flow increased 20% to $384 million

"Our portfolio of market-leading technology businesses delivered a solid quarter, highlighted by 12% revenue growth, 13% EBITDA growth, and 24% free cash flow growth," said Neil Hunn, Roper Technologies’ President and CEO. "Importantly, our second quarter free cash flow of $367 million brings our trailing-twelve-month adjusted free cash flow to $2.1 billion, representing 32% of revenue."

"During the quarter, we saw improving demand for our enterprise software partially offset by production timing at Neptune. Given these factors, we are increasing the low end of our full year guidance. Additionally, we remain well positioned to execute our disciplined and process-driven capital deployment strategy, with a robust pipeline of attractive acquisition opportunities and substantial M&A capacity," concluded Mr. Hunn.

Updating 2024 guidance

Roper now expects full year 2024 adjusted DEPS of $18.10 - $18.25, compared to previous guidance of $18.05 - $18.25. The Company continues to expect full year total revenue growth of approximately 12% and organic revenue growth of approximately 6%.

For the third quarter of 2024, the Company expects adjusted DEPS of $4.50 - $4.54.

The Company’s guidance excludes the impact of unannounced future acquisitions or divestitures.

Conference call to be held at 8:00 AM (ET) today

A conference call to discuss these results has been scheduled for 8:00 AM ET on Wednesday, July 24, 2024. The call can be accessed via webcast or by dialing +1 800-836-8184 (US/Canada) or +1 646-357-8785, using conference call ID 31548.

Use of non-GAAP financial information

The Company supplements its consolidated financial statements presented on a GAAP basis with certain non-GAAP financial information to provide investors with greater insight, increase transparency and allow for a more comprehensive understanding of the information used by management in its financial and operational decision-making. Reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures are included in the accompanying financial schedules or tables. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated.

Minority interests

Following the sale of a majority stake in its industrial businesses to CD&R, Roper holds a minority interest in Indicor. The fair value of Roper’s equity investment in Indicor is updated on a quarterly basis and reported as "equity investments (gain) loss, net." Roper also holds a minority interest in Certinia, a leading provider of professional services automation software. The Company’s investment is accounted for under the equity method and its proportionate share of earnings or loss associated with this investment is reported as "equity investments (gain) loss, net." Roper makes non-GAAP adjustments for the impacts associated with these investments.
