In plain English
Roper is a diversified software holding company that runs like a disciplined acquisition machine: it buys cash-generative, market-leading vertical software businesses — law firms (Aderant), insurance (Vertafore, iPipeline), schools (Frontline), freight (DAT), childcare (Procare), government contractors (Deltek) — and lets them run semi-autonomously, recycling their cash into the next deal. Most revenue is recurring software subscriptions across niche enterprise and government verticals.
