Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Fair Value
Financial assets and liabilities are valued using market prices on active markets (Level 1), less active markets (Level 2), and little or no market activity (Level 3). Level 1 instrument valuations are obtained from real-time quotes for transactions in active exchange markets involving identical assets. Level 2 instrument valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for comparable instruments, identical instruments in less active markets, or models using market observable inputs. Level 3 instrument valuations typically reflect management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
Debt – As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the total estimated fair value of Roper’s fixed-rate senior notes was $8,154.1 and $8,287.4, respectively. The fair values of the senior notes are based on the trading prices of each series of notes, which the Company has determined to be Level 2 in the FASB fair value hierarchy.

At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were $2,850.0 and $850.0 of borrowings outstanding under our unsecured revolving credit facility, respectively. The carrying value of these borrowings approximates their estimated fair value.

Indicor Equity Investment – As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company held a 43.4% and 43.8% equity interest in Indicor Equity, LLC (“Indicor”), respectively. We elected to apply the fair value option as we believe this is the most reasonable method to value this equity investment. The fair value of Roper’s equity investment in Indicor is estimated on a quarterly basis and changes in fair value are reported as a component of “Equity investment (gain) loss, net” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

On May 5, 2026, Indicor entered into a definitive agreement to divest its portfolio of instrumentation businesses (“Indicor Instrumentation”) to AMETEK, Inc. for an enterprise value of approximately $5.0 billion. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including applicable regulatory approvals, and is expected to close in the second half of 2026. Following closing of the Indicor Instrumentation transaction, Roper expects to receive pre-tax cash proceeds of approximately $1.3 billion, including current estimates for purchase price adjustments and transaction costs which are subject to finalization. In addition, as a result of the planned divestiture, Roper’s requirement to make quarterly payments to Clayton Dubilier & Rice, LLC, either (i) in cash or (ii) in-kind through the transfer of Roper’s equity interests in Indicor, was suspended indefinitely, as reflected in the valuation.

We estimate the fair value of our equity investment using the market multiple approach, based on revenue and earnings multiples of comparable guideline public companies. In light of the anticipated Indicor Instrumentation transaction, we updated certain valuation assumptions, including the selection of multiples which considered the enterprise value implied by this planned transaction.

The fair value of our equity investment, consisting of our equity interests in Indicor’s instrumentation and flow controls businesses, reflects management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the equity interests, which the Company has determined to be Level 3 in the FASB fair value hierarchy. Although we believe our assumptions are reasonable, there is significant judgment in determining fair value. Changes in estimates or the application of alternative assumptions could produce significantly different results.

The following table provides a reconciliation of the fair value for our equity investment in Indicor measured using Level 3 inputs:

The Company received $6.7 of dividend distributions from Indicor during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, and received $5.1 of dividend distributions from Indicor during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, which are reported within “Equity investment (gain) loss, net” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. These dividend distributions were intended to offset certain cash taxes payable associated with Roper’s ownership stake and were contemplated in the determination of the fair value for the equity investment in Indicor.
Receivables Purchase Agreement – Outgo Inc. (“Outgo”), a freight payment software and factoring solutions subsidiary integrated into our DAT business, entered into a receivables purchase agreement (“RPA”) under which certain Outgo factored receivables are sold to a third-party financial institution on a non-recourse basis and derecognized upon sale. Sales of Outgo factored receivables did not result in a material gain or loss. As a part of the RPA, Outgo continues to perform certain collection and administrative functions for receivables sold to the purchaser. Under the agreement, Outgo retains a beneficial interest representing the deferred purchase price, which is paid to Outgo following collection of the underlying receivables. The fair value of this beneficial interest was $10.1 at June 30, 2026. Cash inflows received on the beneficial interest totaled $4.5 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and are reported within investing activities in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.
