Rewritten

These may include such things as unauthorized access, phishing attacks, denial of service, [added: insider threats,] data exfiltration and extortion, introduction of malware or ransomware, and other disruptive problems caused by threat actors.

Rewritten

We seek to deploy measures to protect, detect, respond, and recover from cybersecurity [removed: threats,] [added: threats and incidents,] including identity and access controls, employee training, data protection, vulnerability management, incident response, secure product development, continuous monitoring of our networks, platforms, endpoints, and systems, and maintenance of ransomware resilient backup and recovery capabilities.

Rewritten

Despite these efforts, we can make no assurances that we will be able to mitigate, detect, prevent, timely and adequately respond, or fully recover from the negative effects of [removed: cyberattacks] [added: cyberattacks, cybersecurity incidents,] or other security compromises, and such [added: attacks, compromises, or] cybersecurity incidents, depending on their nature and scope, could potentially result in the misappropriation, destruction, corruption, or unavailability of critical data and confidential or proprietary information (our own or that of third parties) and the disruption of business operations.

Any change in the supply of, or price for, these parts and components, as well as any increases in commodity prices or the price and availability [removed: of] [added: of, or any decrease in the reliability of,] third-party cloud computing platforms could affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Rewritten

Many of these risks are outside of CD&R’s or Indicor’s control and could [removed: materially impact Indicor’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.]

Rewritten

The Company makes statements about [removed: ESG] [added: sustainability] goals and initiatives through information provided on its website, press statements, and other communications, including through its annual [removed: ESG Report.][added: sustainability report.]

Rewritten

A discussion of our significant accounting policies can also be found in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, [removed: 2023] [added: 2024] included in this Annual Report.

Rewritten

Other than the changes [added: during 2023] as further described in Note 10 of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements with respect to the methodology used to value our equity investment in Indicor, we have not changed the application of acceptable accounting methods or the significant estimates affecting the application of these principles in the last three years in a manner that had a material effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Rewritten

Our most significant accounting uncertainties are encountered in the areas of income taxes, valuation of other intangible assets, goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangibles impairment analyses, and valuation of our equity [removed: interest] [added: investment] in Indicor.

Rewritten

[removed: During 2023, our] [added: Our 2024] effective income tax rate was [removed: 21.5% as compared to] [added: 21.2% and] our [removed: 2022] [added: 2023 effective income tax] rate [removed: of 23.1%.][added: was 21.5%.]

Rewritten

We expect the effective tax rate for [removed: 2024] [added: 2025] to be approximately 21% to 22%.

Rewritten

Under the qualitative assessment, we consider various qualitative factors, including macroeconomic conditions, relevant industry and market trends, cost factors, overall financial performance, other entity-specific events, and events affecting the reporting unit that could indicate a potential change in the fair value of our reporting unit or the composition of its carrying [removed: values.][added: value.]

Rewritten

The quantitative assessment utilizes [removed: an] [added: the] equal [removed: weighted] [added: weighting of both an] income approach (discounted cash flow) and a market approach (consisting of a comparable public company earnings multiples methodology) to estimate the fair value of a reporting unit.

Rewritten

As of the annual impairment test, [removed: the Company] [added: Roper] has [removed: 22] [added: 23] reporting units with individual goodwill amounts ranging from $17.5 to [removed: $3,363.6.][added: $3,363.7.]

Rewritten

In [removed: 2023,] [added: 2024,] the Company performed its annual impairment test in the fourth quarter for all reporting units.

Rewritten

The Company conducted its analysis qualitatively and assessed whether it was more likely than not that the respective fair [removed: value] [added: values] of these reporting units [removed: was] [added: were] less than [removed: the] [added: their] carrying [removed: amount.][added: amounts.]

Rewritten

The Company determined that impairment of goodwill was not likely in any of its reporting units and thus was not required to perform a quantitative assessment for these reporting units as of October 1, [removed: 2023.][added: 2024.]

Rewritten

Although our forecasts are based on assumptions that are considered reasonable by management and consistent with the plans and estimates management uses to operate the underlying businesses, there is significant judgment [added: applied] in determining the expected results attributable to the businesses and/or reporting units.

Rewritten

Under this methodology the fair value is determined based on the estimated future after-tax cash flows arising from the acquired customer relationships over their estimated [added: useful] lives after considering customer attrition and contributory asset charges.

Rewritten

As of December 31, [removed: 2023] [added: 2024] and [removed: 2022, the Company] [added: 2023, Roper] held a [removed: 47.3%] [added: 45.5%] and [removed: 49.0%] [added: 47.3%] minority equity interest in [removed: Indicor,] [added: Indicor Equity, LLC,] respectively.

Rewritten

We elected to apply the fair value option as we believe this is the most reasonable method to value [removed: the] [added: this] equity investment.

Rewritten

This investment is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as valuation of the investment reflects management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the [removed: asset.][added: equity interest.]

Rewritten

The fair value of our equity investment in Indicor is [removed: updated] [added: estimated] on a quarterly basis and [removed: its impact] [added: the change in fair value] is reported as a component of “Equity investments [removed: activity,] [added: gain,] net” in our Consolidated [removed: Statement] [added: Statements] of Earnings.

New in FY2024

Gross margin decreased to 68.4% for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to 68.9% for the year ended December 31, 2023, due primarily to a lower gross margin profile associated with the higher payments revenue mix at Procare and Transact, our 2024 acquisitions, whose results reduced gross margin by 180 basis points.

New in FY2024

This decrease was partially offset by improved leverage on higher organic revenues.

New in FY2024

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses as a percentage of net revenues decreased to 42.0% in the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to 43.1% in the year ended December 31, 2023, due primarily to lower SG&A profiles at Procare and Transact, which collectively reduced SG&A as a percentage of net revenues by 70 basis points, operating leverage on higher organic revenues, and cost synergies resulting from the integration of Syntellis.

New in FY2024

These increases were partially offset primarily by a decline in our access management businesses.

New in FY2024

Corporate expenses increased by $40.7 to $267.4, or 3.8% of net revenues, in 2024 as compared to $226.7, or 3.7% of net revenues, in 2023.

New in FY2024

Equity investments gain, net, was $234.6 for the year ended December 31, 2024 due primarily to a $135.6 gain on the sale of our equity investment in Certinia, a $96.4 increase in the fair value of our equity investment in Indicor, and $10.8 of dividend

New in FY2024

distributions received from Indicor, partially offset by our proportionate share of net loss associated with the investment in Certinia of $9.8 in accordance with the equity method of accounting.

New in FY2024

Other expense, net, of $5.0 for the year ended December 31, 2024 was composed primarily of foreign exchange losses at our non-U.S. based subsidiaries.

New in FY2024

Our 2024 effective income tax rate of 21.2% decreased as compared to our 2023 tax rate of 21.5%, due primarily to the release of valuation allowances, partially offset by a reduction in stock-based compensation tax benefits.

New in FY2024

Backlog decreased 1.6% to $3,105.4 at December 31, 2024 as compared to $3,156.6 at December 31, 2023 due primarily to a decrease in our Technology Enabled Products segment associated with the normalization of supply chain ordering patterns, partially offset by acquisitions and organic growth in our Application Software segment.

Operating activities – Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations increased by 17% to $2,393.2 in 2024 as compared to $2,037.4 in 2023 due primarily to higher net earnings from continuing operations net of non-cash expenses, increased collections on accounts receivable, the absence of the cash payment from the prior year of $45.0 related to the settlement of a patent litigation matter, and timing associated with interest payments on our senior notes issued in 2024, partially offset by higher cash taxes paid.

New in FY2024

The net proceeds from the issuance of senior notes were used to repay a portion of the borrowings outstanding under our unsecured credit facility, including borrowings incurred to fund the purchase price of the Transact acquisition, as well as to repay a portion of the senior notes due September 15, 2024.

Item 1C. CYBERSECURITY

18 rewritten, 5 added, 2 removed, 14 unchanged

Rewritten

Roper maintains a global Cybersecurity Program [added: supervised by the Vice President of Cybersecurity] that outlines required cybersecurity controls for all Roper businesses.

Rewritten

Given the decentralized nature of Roper’s operating model, day-to-day management and implementation of the Cybersecurity Program and deployment of the program’s cybersecurity controls are managed locally by each of Roper’s [removed: 27] [added: 28] business [removed: units.][added: units, including localized information security management.]

Rewritten

In addition, because Roper’s businesses generally operate independently and maintain separate infrastructure and systems, [added: we believe] the risk of an enterprise-wide cybersecurity incident is somewhat reduced.

Rewritten

While cybersecurity technologies and implementation may differ based on the needs and risk profile of each individual business, Roper has also implemented [removed: cyber] [added: cybersecurity] tools and managed services to centrally monitor certain aspects of the Cybersecurity Program.

Rewritten

Roper deploys cybersecurity practices and tools across all of its businesses [added: designed] to protect data, maintain resilient operations, and limit the impact of cybercrime.

Rewritten

We deploy a Managed Detection and Response [removed: (“MDR”)] solution across all of our business units and our Corporate infrastructure designed to address the detection, response, and remediation effectiveness [removed: of] [added: for] cybersecurity threats.

Rewritten

The Cybersecurity Program includes controls designed to [removed: identify] [added: oversee] and [removed: perform diligence on] [added: identify risks from cybersecurity threats associated with] third parties as they are leveraged by Roper’s businesses in their respective software code development processes or for other purposes that require third-party access to critical infrastructure.

Rewritten

Cybersecurity risk assessments are periodically performed to assess [removed: the] internal compliance with cybersecurity strategy and [added: the] implementation of cybersecurity [removed: controls.][added: controls, which would include the validation of cybersecurity control implementation through testing.]

Rewritten

Areas identified for enhancement and improvement are monitored and tracked to remediation by the Roper [removed: Cyber] [added: cybersecurity] team, including the Vice President of Cybersecurity.

Rewritten

We maintain a centralized incident response process with a [added: third-party] forensic partner on retainer.

Rewritten

Roper maintains a Cybersecurity Incident Response Plan (“CSIRP”), which requires each Roper business to designate a Cybersecurity Incident Response Team [removed: (“CSIRT”)] that is responsible for receiving, reviewing, and responding to cybersecurity incident reports and activities.

Rewritten

Cybersecurity incidents are required to be promptly reported to [removed: Roper, and] [added: the Roper cybersecurity team, who then monitors] such incidents [removed: and] [added: through] their [removed: resolution are then closely monitored by Roper’s cybersecurity team.][added: resolution.]

Rewritten

We work on security awareness with our employees throughout the year with [added: annual] cybersecurity training and [added: monthly] simulated phishing campaigns to better identify and report unusual behavior and to mitigate the likelihood and impact of possible [added: cybersecurity] incidents.

Rewritten

Rather, the Board believes that due to the importance and continually evolving nature of [added: risks from] cybersecurity threats, all members of the Board should participate in the oversight of these topics.

Rewritten

Roper has also established a Cyber Disclosure Committee chaired by the Vice President of Cybersecurity to track and evaluate [added: potentially material] cybersecurity incidents and to assess their potential impact on the organization.

Rewritten

[removed: This process builds upon] the CSIRP and provides a framework for Roper management to monitor potentially material [removed: cyber] [added: cybersecurity] incidents.

Rewritten

Risk Factors, We rely on information and technology, including third-party cloud computing [removed: platforms,] [added: platforms and other third-party business partners,] for many of our business operations which could fail and cause disruption to our business operations.” above for more information.

Rewritten

While we work to maintain our Cybersecurity Program, there can be no assurance that such actions will be sufficient to prevent cybersecurity incidents or mitigate all [added: risks from cybersecurity threats or] potential risks to such systems, networks, and data or those of our third-party providers.

New in FY2024

Additionally, this solution is designed to provide real-time monitoring of identity-based attacks, as well as monitoring of the deep, dark and social webs for cybersecurity threats targeting Roper’s businesses.

New in FY2024

Cybersecurity risk is also addressed in, and monitored by, the Company’s enterprise risk management program.

New in FY2024

The Vice President of Audit Services also reports to the Audit Committee on matters, including cybersecurity matters, that are addressed and monitored pursuant to the Company’s enterprise risk management program.

The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the valuation of customer relationships acquired in the acquisition of Genesis Ultimate Holding Co. is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management when developing the fair value estimate of the customer relationships acquired; (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant assumptions related to the customer attrition rate, projected customer revenue growth rates, margins, and discount rate; and (iii) the audit effort involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.

New in FY2024

These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the acquisition accounting, including controls over management’s valuation of the customer relationships acquired.

New in FY2024

Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in evaluating (i) the appropriateness of the excess earnings method and (ii) the reasonableness of the customer attrition rate and discount rate assumptions.

New in FY2024

Of the acquired amortizable intangible assets, $656.0 million of customer relationships were recorded.

New in FY2024

Under this methodology, the fair value is determined by management based on the estimated future after-tax cash flows arising from the acquired customer relationships over their estimated useful lives after considering customer attrition and contributory asset charges.

New in FY2024

Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements.

New in FY2024

These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the acquisition accounting, including controls over management’s valuation of the customer relationships acquired.

New in FY2024

Evaluating management’s assumptions related to projected customer revenue growth rates and margins involved considering (i) the current and past performance of the RCP Vega Holdings, LLC business; (ii) the consistency with external market and industry data; and (iii) whether the assumptions were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit.
