Roper Technologies (ISIN US7766961061) was last at USD 358.57 on Nasdaq on October 7, 2026, down 1.02 percent from the prior close. The next scheduled checkpoint is the company's third-quarter report on October 22, 2026, before the market opens, according to GlobeNewswire on October 1, 2026.

Second quarter growth sets the baseline

Roper's second-quarter 2026 revenue rose 8.5 percent year over year to USD 2.11 billion. Adjusted EPS increased 10 percent to USD 5.38, according to Yahoo Finance on October 7, 2026.

The earnings mix matters because the same report said recurring software organic revenue grew 7 percent in the quarter, while adjusted free cash flow reached USD 447 million, up 11 percent year over year. That combination gives the upcoming report two measurable benchmarks: recurring growth and cash generation.

Buybacks meet a financing test

Yahoo Finance reported on October 7, 2026, that Roper had spent USD 3.2 billion on repurchases over three quarters. The article also put second-quarter buybacks at USD 1.2 billion against USD 469 million of operating cash flow.

That comparison sharpens the investor question around the October report. Roper can support per-share growth through a smaller share count, but the capital allocation benefit depends on cash growth keeping pace with financing needs.

Hold consensus leaves a wide gap

According to MarketBeat on September 18, 2026, 19 analysts held a consensus rating of Hold, with seven Buy, nine Hold and three Sell ratings. The average 12-month price target was USD 466.94, which was 30.2 percent above the USD 358.57 reference price.

The market value was USD 36.2 billion on October 7, 2026, while the 52-week range was USD 305.96 to USD 521.28. The stock therefore stood 31.2 percent below its yearly high, making the October 22 results a test of whether current operating growth can narrow the valuation discount.
