Plain-text annual report

roper is a diversified growth company and a constituent of the S&P 500, Fortune 1000, and russell 1000 indices. We provide engineered products and solutions that create global leadership positions across a diverse set of niche markets, including software information networks, medical, water, energy and transportation. We believe cash is the best measure of performance. We appreciate and preserve what works in our businesses, while being committed to stimulating progress and change that can accelerate growth and drive cash returns. And we believe that more value is created from localized innovation than centralized control. Our businesses are driven by customer intimacy, application engineering expertise, technology leadership and nimble execution, and we govern with common tools and metrics that enable focused resource allocation to facilitate understanding and continually improve performance. We invest in the long-term success of our businesses, and it shows: Since our first year as a public company, revenue has increased dramatically, while free cash flow has grown even faster. 2,993 909 639 617 70 130 14 79 8 92 02 12 92 02 12 92 02 12 revenue ($ in millions) ebitdA ($ in millions) Free CASh Fl OW* ($ in millions) * Free Cash Flow = Operating cash flow less captial expenditures Roper Compared to S&P 500 Cumulative Total Shareholder Return [$100 inveSted At i PO] $7,000 $6,000 $5,000 $4,000 $3,000 $2,000 $1,000 $0 S&P 500 IPO 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 roper has a long-standing commitment to creating shareholder value. this has resulted in a 21-year record of success, including adding nearly $6.1 billion of market capitalization in the last three years. this has been driven by a consistent focus on growing cash flow. We have been able to drive these substantial cash flows due to several factors. First, our strategy to acquire great businesses and help them grow has been proven time and again to be an excellent source of future cash flows. next, as we have moved from the S&P SmallCap 600 index to the S&P MidCap 400 index and more recently to the large-cap S&P 500 index, we have steadily mastered the challenge of maintaining a business culture that is based on the principle that Simple Ideas and Nimble Execution produce Powerful Results in our businesses. this culture has proven as scalable as we always believed it would be. Further, our leaders continue to demonstrate an intricate understanding of their business, while adhering to and executing our compelling cash flow disciplines. As we look forward to 2013 and beyond, we will continue to execute our simple, proven strategies to deliver exceptional shareholder returns. L eT TeR T o S h aRe h oLd eR S dear Shareholders, 2012 was another terrific year for roper, with record results for revenue, net earnings and free cash flow. the stock price increased 28% during the year to finish at $111.48. in addition, we increased our dividend by 20%, marking the 20th consecutive annual increase. these results came from the outstanding performance by our business leaders and the execution of a consistent strategy comprised of the following principles: ► Win in niche markets through a diverse set of businesses with leading market positions ► Focus on providing proprietary and differentiated customer solutions to generate high gross margins ► Maintain an asset-light business model to deliver exceptional cash performance with minimal requirements for capital expenditures and working capital ► ensure strong business leaders are in place who are accountable for results and operate in our nimble governance system ► effectively deploy excess free cash flow in acquisitions that deliver growth and high cash returns these principles have been, and will be, the core of our strategy for delivering superior shareholder returns. We will continue to focus on improving our market-leading positions, delivering high cash returns and investing for growth while continuing to build a great company. the powerful combination of CleAr FOCuS, PrOven StrAtegy and enduring PrinCiPleS has created solid growth platforms at roper—and paves the way for our future success. exCePtiOnAl PerFOrMAnCe thr OughOut the enterPriSe ► total revenue increased by 7% to $3 billion ► Operating cash flow reached $678 million, 23% of revenue ► gross margin increased to 55.8% ► ebitdA margin expanded to 30.4% ► invested nearly $1.5 billion in exciting new businesses L eT TeR T o S h aRe h oLd eR S Our businesses performed exceptionally well in 2012. revenue growth was led by continued share gains and benefits from new products across the businesses. Operating margin expanded to 25.3%. Operating leverage (the ratio of incremental operating profit divided by incremental revenue) for the enterprise was 49.5%, as operating profit increased by $97 million and revenue increased by $196 million. this performance was broad-based with operating margin expansion in each of our four segments in each quarter during 2012. Overall, this was an outstanding level of performance and it is a direct result of the terrific leadership teams we have in the businesses delivering exceptional value to customers in attractive niche markets. in addition to the strong operating performance, we restructured our debt at attractive rates while increasing our balance sheet capacity and flexibility. Combined with record cash flow, this allowed us to invest nearly $1.5 billion in four acquisitions during 2012. in August, 2012, we completed the acquisition of Sunquest information Systems for a purchase price of $1.4 billion. Sunquest is a leading provider of diagnostic and laboratory software solutions to hospitals. this acquisition met all our acquisition criteria: ► niche Market. Sunquest provides best-of-breed solutions to hospitals that improve workflow, efficiency and quality in the laboratory setting. With over 30 years of deep application expertise in this area, Sunquest has high customer renewal rates (>98%) and the most comprehensive set of solutions for hospital laboratories. ► Asset-light business Model. Sunquest operates with negative working capital due to annual renewals maintenance and support of their large installed base of software. Capital expenditures are expected to be less than 2% of revenue. And over 2/3 of the business is recurring revenue. ► experienced and dedicated Management team. during our evaluation of the business, we were very impressed with the passion, performance and depth of the Sunquest leadership team. We are confident the leadership team will continue to drive additional growth and cash performance. ► defined and Achievable growth. With favorable end market dynamics and a robust product pipeline, Sunquest has established solid growth plans to expand solutions with existing customers, and to capture new growth opportunities. We are excited about the Sunquest business and are confident it will be a growth platform for the future. As we look forward to 2013 and beyond, we will continue to execute our simple, proven strategies to deliver exceptional shareholder returns. We expect another record year in 2013, and are excited about the opportunities we see ahead. Our acquisition pipeline remains attractive and we are confident we will be able to once again deploy capital wisely using our proven and disciplined approach. best regards, brian Jellison Chairman and Chief executive Officer rOPer FOrM 10-K 2012 UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION Washington, D.C. 20549 FORM 10-K  ANNUAL REPORT PURSUANT TO SECTION 13 OR 15(d) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 □ TRANSITION REPORT PURSUANT TO SECTION 13 OR 15(d) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934 For the transition period from to Commission File Number 1-12273 Roper Industries, Inc.

In addition, we, or our executive officers on our behalf, may from time to time make forward- looking statements in reports and other documents we file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) or in connection with oral statements made to the press, potential investors or others. All statements that are not historical facts are “forward-looking statements.” Forward-looking statements may be indicated by words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plans,” “expects,” “projects,” “should,” “will,” “believes” or “intends” and similar words and phrases. These statements reflect management’s current beliefs and are not guarantees of future performance. They involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement. Examples of forward-looking statements in this report include but are not limited to statements regarding operating results, the success of our internal operating plans, our expectations regarding our ability to generate operating cash flows and reduce debt and associated interest expense, profit and cash flow expectations, the prospects for newly acquired businesses to be integrated and contribute to future growth and our expectations regarding growth through acquisitions. Important assumptions relating to the forward-looking statements include, among others, assumptions regarding demand for our products, the cost, timing and success of product upgrades and new prod- uct introductions, raw materials costs, expected pricing levels, the timing and cost of expected capital expenditures, expected outcomes of pending litigation, competitive conditions, general economic conditions and expected synergies relating to acquisitions, joint ventures and alliances. These assumptions could prove inaccurate. Although we believe that the estimates and projections reflected in the forward- looking statements are reasonable, our expectations may prove to be incorrect. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from estimates or projections contained in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: • general economic conditions; • difficulty making acquisitions and successfully integrating acquired businesses; • any unforeseen liabilities associated with future acquisitions; • limitations on our business imposed by our indebtedness; • unfavorable changes in foreign exchange rates; • difficulties associated with exports; • risks and costs associated with our international sales and operations; • increased directors’ and officers’ liability and other insurance costs; • risk of rising interest rates; • product liability and insurance risks; • increased warranty exposure; • future competition; • the cyclical nature of some of our markets; • reduction of business with large customers; • risks associated with government contracts; • changes in the supply of, or price for, raw materials, parts and components; • environmental compliance costs and liabilities; • risks and costs associated with asbestos-related litigation; • potential write-offs of our substantial goodwill and other intangible assets; • our ability to successfully develop new products; • failure to protect our intellectual property; • the effect of, or change in, government regulations (including tax); • economic disruption caused by terrorist attacks, health crises or other unforeseen events; and • the factors discussed in Item 1A to this Annual Report under the heading “Risk Factors.” We believe these forward-looking statements are reasonable. However, you should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations. Further, forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update any of them in light of new information or future events. Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report page 3 PART I ITEM 1. BUSINESS OUR BUSINESS Roper Industries, Inc. (“Roper” or the “Company”) was incorporated on December 17, 1981 under the laws of the State of Delaware. We are a diversified growth company that designs, manufactures and distributes radio frequency (“RF”) products, services and application software, industrial technology products, energy systems and controls and medical and scientific imaging products and software. We market these products and services to a broad range of markets including RF applications, medical, water, energy, research, education, software-as-a-service (“SaaS”)-based information networks, security and other niche markets. We pursue consistent and sustainable growth in sales, earnings and cash flow by emphasizing continuous improvement in the operating performance of our existing businesses and by acquiring other carefully selected businesses that offer high value-added services, engi- neered products and solutions and are capable of achieving growth in sales, earnings and cash flow. We compete in many niche markets and believe we are the market leader or a competitive alternative to the market leader in the majority of these markets. On August 22, 2012, we acquired 100% of the shares of Sunquest Information Systems, Inc. (“Sunquest”), a leading provider of diagnostic and laboratory software solutions to healthcare providers, in a $1.416 billion all-cash transaction. We acquired Sunquest in order to complement and expand our medical platform. MARKET SHARE, MARKET ExPANSION, AND PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT Leadership with Engineered Content for Niche Markets—We maintain a leading position in many of our markets. We believe our market positions are attributable to the technical sophistication of our products and software, the applications expertise used to create our advanced products and systems, and our distribution and service capabilities. Our operating units grow their businesses through new product development and development of new applications and services to satisfy customer needs. In addition, our operating units grow our customer base by expanding our distribution, selling other products through our existing channels and entering adjacent markets. Diversified End Markets and Geographic Reach—We have a global presence, with sales of products to customers outside the U.S. totaling $1.2 billion in 2012. Information regarding our international operations is set forth in Note 14 of the notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report. Research and Development—We conduct applied research and development to improve the quality and performance of our products and to develop new technologies and products. Our research and development spending was $125.9 million in 2012 as compared to $121.7 and $102.4 million in 2011 and 2010, respectively. Research and development expense as a percentage of sales decreased to 4.2% in 2012 from 4.4% in 2011. OUR BUSINESS SEGMENTS Our operations are reported in four segments based upon common customers, markets, sales channels, technologies and common cost opportunities. The segments are: Medical and Scientific Imaging, Energy Systems and Controls, Industrial Technology and RF Technology. Financial information about our business segments is presented in Note 14 of the notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. MEDICAL AND SCIENTIFIC IMAGING Our Medical and Scientific Imaging segment principally offers products and software in medical applications, and high performance digital imaging products.

Standard products generally ship within two weeks of receipt of order, and large engineered projects may have lead times of several months. As such, backlog may fluctuate depending upon the timing of large project awards. MATERIALS AND SUPPLIERS We believe that most materials and supplies we use are readily available from numerous sources and suppliers throughout the world. However, some of our components and sub-assemblies are currently available from a limited number of suppliers. Some high-performance components for digital imaging products can be in short supply and/or suppliers have occasional difficulty manufacturing such compo- nents to our specifications. We regularly investigate and identify alternative sources where possible, and we believe that these conditions equally affect our competitors. Supply shortages have not had a material adverse effect on Roper’s sales although delays in shipments have occurred following such supply interruptions. BACKLOG Our policy is to include only firm unfilled orders shippable within twelve months in backlog. Backlog was $828 million at December 31, 2012, and $785 million at December 31, 2011. DISTRIBUTION AND SALES Distribution and sales occur through direct sales offices, manufacturers’ representatives and distributors. In addition, our Medical and Scientific Imaging segment also sells through value added resellers (“VARs”) and OEMs. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS AND OTHER GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION Our operations and properties are subject to laws and regulations relating to environmental protection, including those governing air emissions, water discharges, waste management and workplace safety. We use, generate and dispose of hazardous substances and waste in our operations and could be subject to material liabilities relating to the investigation and clean-up of contaminated properties and related claims. We are required to conform our operations and properties to these laws and adapt to regulatory requirements in all countries as these requirements change. In connection with our acquisitions, we may assume significant environmental liabilities, some of which we may not be aware of, or may not be quantifiable, at the time of acquisition. In addition, new laws and regulations, the discovery of previously unknown contamination or the imposition of new requirements could increase our costs or subject us to new or increased liabilities. page 6 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report CUSTOMERS No customer accounted for 10% or more of net sales for 2012 for any of our segments or for Roper as a whole. COMPETITION Generally, our products and solutions face significant competition, usually from a limited number of competitors. We believe that we are a leader in most of our markets, and no single company competes with us over a significant number of product lines. Competitors might be large or small in size, often depending on the size of the niche market we serve. We compete primarily on product quality, performance, innovation, technology, price, applications expertise, distribution channel access and customer service capabilities. PATENTS AND TRADEMARKS In addition to trade secrets, unpatented know-how, and other intellectual property rights, we own or license the rights under a number of patents, trademarks and copyrights relating to certain of our products and businesses. We also employ various methods, including confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements with individuals and companies we do business with, employees, distributors, representa- tives and customers to protect our trade secrets and know-how. We believe that our operating units are not substantially dependent on any single patent, trademark, copyright, or other item of intellectual property or group of patents, trademarks or copyrights. EMPLOYEES As of December 31, 2012, we had 9,475 employees, with 6,707 located in the United States. We have 214 employees who are subject to collective bargaining agreements. We have not experienced any work stoppages and consider our relations with our employees to be good.

RISK FACTORS Risks Relating to Our Business Our indebtedness may affect our business and may restrict our operating flexibility. As of December 31, 2012, we had $2.02 billion in total consolidated indebtedness. In addition, we had $1.4 billion undrawn availability under our senior unsecured credit facility, as well as the ability to request additional term loans or revolving credit commitments under our credit facility not to exceed $350 million in aggregate. Our total consolidated debt could increase using this additional borrowing capacity. Subject to restrictions contained in our credit facility, we may incur additional indebtedness in the future, including indebtedness incurred to finance acquisitions. Our level of indebtedness and the debt servicing costs associated with that indebtedness could have important effects on our operations and business strategy. For example, our indebtedness could: • place us at a competitive disadvantage relative to our competitors, some of which have lower debt service obligations and greater financial resources; Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report page 7 • limit our ability to borrow additional funds; • limit our ability to complete future acquisitions; • limit our ability to pay dividends; • limit our ability to make capital expenditures; and • increase our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions. Our ability to make scheduled principal payments of, to pay interest on, or to refinance our indebtedness and to satisfy our other debt obligations will depend upon our future operating performance, which may be affected by factors beyond our control. In addition, there can be no assurance that future borrowings or equity financing will be available to us on favorable terms for the payment or refinancing of our indebtedness. If we are unable to service our indebtedness, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially adversely affected. Our credit facility contains covenants requiring us to achieve certain financial and operating results and maintain compliance with spec- ified financial ratios. Our ability to meet the financial covenants or requirements in our credit facility may be affected by events beyond our control, and we may not be able to satisfy such covenants and requirements. A breach of these covenants or our inability to comply with the financial ratios, tests or other restrictions contained in our facility could result in an event of default under this facility. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under our credit facility, and the expiration of any grace periods, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts outstanding under the facility, together with accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable. If this were to occur, our assets may not be sufficient to fully repay the amounts due under this facility or our other indebtedness. Unfavorable changes in foreign exchange rates may significantly harm our business. Several of our operating companies have transactions and balances denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Most of these transactions and balances are denominated in euros, Canadian dollars, British pounds or Danish krone. Sales by our operating companies whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar represented 25% of our total net sales for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to 27% for the year ended December 31, 2011. Unfavorable changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and those currencies could significantly reduce our reported sales and earnings. We export a significant portion of our products. Difficulties associated with the export of our products could harm our business. Sales to customers outside the U.S. by our businesses located in the U.S. account for a significant portion of our net sales. These sales accounted for 15% of our net sales for each of the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. We are subject to risks that could limit our ability to export our products or otherwise reduce the demand for these products in our foreign markets. Such risks include, without limitation, the following: • unfavorable changes in or noncompliance with U.S. and other jurisdictions’ export requirements; • restrictions on the export of technology and related products; • unfavorable changes in or noncompliance with U.S. and other jurisdictions’ export policies to certain countries; • unfavorable changes in the import policies of our foreign markets; and • a general economic downturn in our foreign markets. The occurrence of any of these events could reduce the foreign demand for our products or could limit our ability to export our products and, therefore, could have a material negative effect on our future sales and earnings. Economic, political and other risks associated with our international operations could adversely affect our business. As of and for the year ended December 31, 2012, 27% of our net sales and 22% of our long-lived assets, excluding goodwill and intangibles, were attributable to operations outside the U.S. We expect our international operations to contribute materially to our business for the foreseeable future. Our international operations are subject to varying degrees of risk inherent in doing business outside the U.S. including, without limitation, the following: • adverse changes in a specific country’s or region’s political or economic conditions, particularly in emerging markets; • trade protection measures and import or export requirements; • subsidies or increased access to capital for firms that are currently, or may emerge as, competitors in countries in which we have operations; • partial or total expropriation; • potentially negative consequences from changes in tax laws; page 8 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report • difficulty in staffing and managing widespread operations; • differing labor regulations; • differing protection of intellectual property; and • unexpected changes in regulatory requirements. The occurrence of any of these events could materially harm our business. Our growth strategy includes acquisitions. We may not be able to identify suitable acquisition candidates, complete acquisitions or integrate acquisitions successfully. Our future growth is likely to depend to some degree on our ability to acquire and successfully integrate new businesses. We intend to seek additional acquisition opportunities, both to expand into new markets and to enhance our position in existing markets. There are no assurances, however, that we will be able to successfully identify suitable candidates, negotiate appropriate terms, obtain financing on acceptable terms, complete proposed acquisitions, successfully integrate acquired businesses or expand into new markets. Once acquired, operations may not achieve anticipated levels of revenues or profitability. Acquisitions involve risks, including difficulties in the integration of the operations, technologies, services and products of the acquired companies and the diversion of management’s attention from other business concerns. Although our management will endeavor to eval- uate the risks inherent in any particular transaction, there are no assurances that we will properly ascertain all such risks. In addition, prior acquisitions have resulted, and future acquisitions could result, in the incurrence of substantial additional indebtedness and other expenses. Future acquisitions may also result in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities. Difficulties encountered with acquisitions may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Product liability, insurance risks and increased insurance costs could harm our operating results. Our business exposes us to product liability risks in the design, manufacturing and distribution of our products. In addition, certain of our products are used in hazardous environments. We currently have product liability insurance; however, we may not be able to main- tain our insurance at a reasonable cost or in sufficient amounts to protect us against losses. We also maintain other insurance policies, including directors’ and officers’ liability insurance. Our insurance costs increased in prior periods and may increase in the future. We believe we have adequately accrued estimated losses, principally related to deductible amounts under our insurance policies, with respect to all product liability and other claims, based upon our past experience and available facts. However, a successful product liability or other claim or series of claims brought against us could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, a significant increase in our insurance costs could have an adverse impact on our operating results. Our operating results could be adversely affected by a reduction of business with our large customers. In some of our businesses, we derive a significant amount of revenue from large customers. The loss or reduction of any significant contracts with any of these customers could materially reduce our revenue and cash flows. Additionally, many of our customers are government entities. In many situations, government entities can unilaterally terminate or modify our existing contracts without cause and without penalty to the government agency. We face intense competition. If we do not compete effectively, our business may suffer. We face intense competition from numerous competitors. Our products compete primarily on the basis of product quality, performance, innovation, technology, price, applications expertise, system and service flexibility and established customer service capabilities. We may not be able to compete effectively on all of these fronts or with all of our competitors. In addition, new competitors may emerge, and product lines may be threatened by new technologies or market trends that reduce the value of these product lines. To remain competitive, we must develop new products, respond to new technologies and enhance our existing products in a timely manner. We anticipate that we may have to adjust prices to stay competitive. Changes in the supply of, or price for, raw materials, parts and components used in our products could affect our business. The availability and prices of raw materials, parts and components are subject to curtailment or change due to, among other things, suppliers’ allocations to other purchasers, interruptions in production by suppliers, changes in exchange rates and prevailing price levels. Some high-performance components for digital imaging products may be in short supply and/or suppliers may have occasional difficulty manufacturing these components to meet our specifications. In addition, some of our products are provided by sole source suppliers. Any change in the supply of, or price for, these parts and components, as well as any increases in commodity prices, particularly copper, could affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report page 9 Environmental compliance costs and liabilities could increase our expenses and adversely affect our financial condition. Our operations and properties are subject to laws and regulations relating to environmental protection, including air emissions, water discharges, waste management and workplace safety. These laws and regulations can result in the imposition of substantial fines and sanctions for violations and could require the installation of pollution control equipment or operational changes to limit pollution emissions and/or decrease the likelihood of accidental hazardous substance releases. We must conform our operations and properties to these laws and adapt to regulatory requirements in the countries in which we operate as these requirements change. We use and generate hazardous substances and wastes in our operations and, as a result, could be subject to potentially material liabilities relating to the investigation and clean-up of contaminated properties and to claims alleging personal injury. We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, costs relating to compliance with environmental laws and regulations. In connection with our acquisi- tions, we may assume significant environmental liabilities, some of which we may not be aware of at the time of acquisition. In addition, new laws and regulations, stricter enforcement of existing laws and regulations, the discovery of previously unknown contamination or the imposition of new clean-up requirements could require us to incur costs or become the basis for new or increased liabilities that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Some of the industries in which we operate are cyclical, and, accordingly, our business is subject to changes in the economy. Some of the business areas in which we operate are subject to specific industry and general economic cycles. Certain businesses are subject to industry cycles, including but not limited to, the industrial and energy markets. Accordingly, a downturn in these or other markets in which we participate could materially adversely affect us. If demand changes and we fail to respond accordingly, our results of operations could be materially adversely affected. The business cycles of our different operations may occur contemporaneously. Consequently, the effect of an economic downturn may have a magnified negative effect on our business. Our goodwill and intangible assets are valued at an amount that is high relative to our total assets, and a write-off of our intangible assets would negatively affect our results of operations and total capitalization. Our total assets reflect substantial intangible assets, primarily goodwill. At December 31, 2012, goodwill totaled $3.87 billion compared to $3.69 billion of stockholders’ equity, and represented 55% of our total assets of $7.07 billion. The goodwill results from our acquisitions, representing the excess of cost over the fair value of the net assets we have acquired. We assess at least annually whether there has been an impairment in the value of our goodwill and indefinite economic life intangible assets. If future operating performance at one or more of our business units were to fall significantly below current levels, if competing or alternative technologies emerge, if interest rates rise or if business valuations decline, we could incur a non-cash charge to operating earnings. Any determination requiring the write-off of a significant portion of goodwill or unamortized intangible assets would negatively affect our results of operations and total capitalization, the effect of which could be material. We depend on our ability to develop new products, and any failure to develop or market new products could adversely affect our business. The future success of our business will depend, in part, on our ability to design and manufacture new competitive products and to enhance existing products so that our products can be sold with high margins. This product development may require substantial internal investment. There can be no assurance that unforeseen problems will not occur with respect to the development, performance or market acceptance of new technologies or products or that we will otherwise be able to successfully develop and market new products. Failure of our products to gain market acceptance or our failure to successfully develop and market new products could reduce our margins, which would have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Our technology is important to our success and our failure to protect this technology could put us at a competitive disadvantage. Many of our products rely on proprietary technology; therefore we believe that the development and protection of intellectual property rights through patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks, confidentiality agreements and other contractual provisions are important to the future success of our business. Despite our efforts to protect proprietary rights, unauthorized parties or competitors may copy or otherwise obtain and use our products or technology. Actions to enforce these rights may result in substantial costs and diversion of resources and we make no assurances that any such actions will be successful. Any business disruptions due to political instability, armed hostilities, incidents of terrorism or natural disasters could adversely impact our financial performance. If terrorist activity, armed conflict, political instability or natural disasters occur in the U.S. or other locations, such events may negatively impact our operations, cause general economic conditions to deteriorate or cause demand for our products to decline. A prolonged economic slowdown or recession could reduce the demand for our products, and therefore, negatively affect our future sales and profits. Any of these events could have a significant impact on our business, financial condition or results of operations. page 10 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report ITEM 1B.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS You should read the following discussion in conjunction with “Selected Financial Data” and our Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in this Annual Report. OVERVIEW We are a diversified growth company that designs, manufactures and distributes energy systems and controls, medical and scientific imaging products and software, industrial technology products and RF products, services and application software. We market these products and services to a broad range of markets including RF applications, medical, water, energy, research, education, software-as-a- service (“SaaS”)-based information networks, security and other niche markets. We pursue consistent and sustainable growth in earnings and cash flow by emphasizing continuous improvement in the operating performance of our existing businesses and by acquiring other carefully selected businesses. Our acquisitions have represented both bolt-ons and new strategic platforms. On August 22, 2012, we acquired 100% of the shares of Sunquest Information Systems, Inc. (“Sunquest”), a leading provider of diagnostic and laboratory software solutions to healthcare providers, in a $1.416 billion all-cash transaction. We acquired Sunquest in order to com- plement and expand our medical platform. page 14 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES Our Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). A discussion of our significant accounting policies can also be found in the notes to our Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 included in this Annual Report. GAAP offers acceptable alternative methods for accounting for certain issues affecting our financial results, such as determining inventory cost, depreciating long-lived assets and recognizing revenue. 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 financial statements. The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the use of estimates, assumptions, judgments and interpretations that can affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and other supplemental disclosures. The development of accounting estimates is the responsibility of our management. Our management discusses those areas that require significant judgments with the audit committee of our Board of Directors. The audit committee has reviewed all financial disclosures in our annual filings with the SEC. Although we believe the positions we have taken with regard to uncertainties are reasonable, others might reach different conclusions and our positions can change over time as more information becomes available. If an accounting estimate changes, its effects are accounted for prospectively or through a cumulative catch up adjustment. Our most significant accounting uncertainties are encountered in the areas of accounts receivable collectibility, inventory valuation, future warranty obligations, revenue recognition (percentage-of-completion), income taxes and goodwill and indefinite-lived asset analyses. These issues, except for income taxes, which are not allocated to our business segments, affect each of our business segments. These issues are evaluated using a combination of historical experience, current conditions and relatively short-term forecasting. Accounts receivable collectibility is based on the economic circumstances of customers and credits given to customers after shipment of products, including in certain cases credits for returned products. Accounts receivable are regularly reviewed to determine customers who have not paid within agreed upon terms, whether these amounts are consistent with past experiences, what historical experience has been with amounts deemed uncollectible and the impact that economic conditions might have on collection efforts in general and with specific customers. The returns and other sales credit allowance is an estimate of customer returns, exchanges, discounts or other forms of anticipated concessions and is treated as a reduction in revenue. The returns and other sales credits histories are analyzed to deter- mine likely future rates for such credits. At December 31, 2012, our allowance for doubtful accounts receivable was $12.5 million and our allowance for sales returns and sales credits was $3.5 million, for a total of $16.0 million, or 3.0% of total gross accounts receivable. This percentage is influenced by the risk profile of the underlying receivables, and the timing of write-offs of accounts deemed uncollectible. The total allowance at December 31, 2012 was $5.4 million higher than at December 31, 2011. The allowance will continue to fluctuate as a percentage of sales based on specific identification of allowances needed due to changes in our business, the write-off of uncollectible receivables, and the addition of reserve balances at acquired businesses. We regularly compare inventory quantities on hand against anticipated future usage, which we determine as a function of historical usage or forecasts related to specific items in order to evaluate obsolescence and excessive quantities. When we use historical usage, this information is also qualitatively compared to business trends to evaluate the reasonableness of using historical information as an estimate of future usage. At December 31, 2012, inventory reserves for excess and obsolete inventory were $42.0 million, or 18.0% of gross inven- tory cost, as compared to $35.2 million, or 14.7% of gross inventory cost, at December 31, 2011. The inventory reserve as a percent of gross inventory cost will continue to fluctuate based upon specific identification of reserves needed based upon changes in our business as well as the physical disposal of obsolete inventory. Most of our sales are covered by warranty provisions that generally provide for the repair or replacement of qualifying defective items for a specified period after the time of sale, typically 12 months. Future warranty obligations are evaluated using, among other factors, historical cost experience, product evolution and customer feedback. Our expense for warranty obligations was less than 1% of net sales for each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010. Revenues related to the use of the percentage-of-completion method of accounting are dependent on total costs incurred compared with total estimated costs for a project. During the year ended December 31, 2012, we recognized revenue of $145.5 million using this method, primarily for major turn-key, longer term toll and traffic and energy projects. We recognized $151.5 million and $131.0 million of revenue using this method during the years ended December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. At December 31, 2012, $190.4 million of revenue related to unfinished percentage-of-completion contracts had yet to be recognized. Contracts accounted for under this method are generally not significantly different in profitability from revenues accounted for under other methods. Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report page 15 Income taxes can be affected by estimates of whether and within which jurisdictions future earnings will occur and if, how and when cash is repatriated to the U.S., combined with other aspects of an overall income tax strategy. Additionally, taxing jurisdictions could retroactively disagree with our tax treatment of certain items, and some historical transactions have income tax effects going forward. Accounting rules require these future effects to be evaluated using current laws, rules and regulations, each of which can change at any time and in an unpredictable manner. During 2012, our effective income tax rate was 29.6%, which was slightly higher than the 2011 rate of 29.4% due primarily to a decrease in research and development (“R&D”) deductions. On January 2, 2013, subsequent to the fourth quarter of 2012, the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 (ATRA) was enacted which retroactively reinstated and extended certain tax provisions, including the Federal Research and Development Tax Credit from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2013. As a result, the Company expects its income tax provision for the first quarter of 2013 will include a discrete tax benefit, which is estimated to be approximately $3 million. The ATRA also reinstated and extended the exclusion from U.S. federal taxable income of certain interest, dividends, rents and royalty income of foreign affiliates, as well as the tax benefits of the credits asso- ciated with that income. This provision is retroactively reinstated to January 1, 2012 and, as a result, the Company expects its income tax provision for the first quarter of 2013 will include a discrete tax benefit which is estimated to be approximately $3 million. We account for goodwill in a purchase business combination as the excess of the cost over the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill, which is not amortized, is tested for impairment on an annual basis (or an interim basis if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value) using a two-step process. The first step of the process utilizes both an income approach (discounted cash flows) and a market approach consisting of a comparable public company earnings multiples methodology to estimate the fair value of a reporting unit. To determine the reasonableness of the estimated fair values, we review the assumptions to ensure that neither the income approach nor the market approach provides significantly different valuations. If the estimated fair value exceeds the carrying value, no further work is required and no impairment loss is recognized. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value, the goodwill of the reporting unit is potentially impaired and then the second step would be completed in order to measure the impairment loss by calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets (including unrecognized intangible assets) of the reporting unit from the fair value of the reporting unit. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carrying value of goodwill, an impairment loss would be recognized. Key assumptions used in the income and market methodologies are updated when the analysis is performed for each reporting unit. Various assumptions are utilized including forecasted operating results, strategic plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows, the weighted-average cost of capital, comparable transactions, market data and earnings multiples. The assumptions that have the most significant effect on the fair value calculations are the anticipated future cash flows, discount rates, and the earnings multiples. While we use reasonable and timely information to prepare our cash flow and discount rate assumptions, actual future cash flows or market conditions could differ significantly resulting in future non-cash impairment charges related to recorded goodwill balances. Total goodwill includes 27 reporting units with individual amounts ranging from zero to $992 million. We concluded that the fair value of each of our reporting units was substantially in excess of its carrying value, with no impairment indicated as of December 31, 2012. However, negative industry or economic trends, disruptions to our business, actual results significantly below projections, unexpected significant changes or planned changes in the use of the assets, divestitures and market capitalization declines may have a negative effect on the fair value of our reporting units. Business combinations can also result in other intangible assets being recognized. Amortization of intangible assets, if applicable, occurs over their estimated useful lives. Trade names are determined to have an indefinite useful economic life and are not amortized, but separately tested for impairment during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year or on an interim basis if an event occurs that indicates the fair value is more likely than not below the carrying value. We conduct these reviews for all of our reporting units using the relief-from- royalty method, which we believe to be an acceptable methodology due to its common use by valuations specialists in determining the fair value of intangible assets. This methodology assumes that, in lieu of ownership, a third party would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of these assets. The fair value of each trade name is determined by applying a royalty rate to a projection of net sales discounted using a risk adjusted rate of capital. Each royalty rate is determined based on the profitability of the reporting unit to which it relates and observed market royalty rates. Sales growth rates are determined after considering current and future economic conditions, recent sales trends, discussions with customers, planned timing of new product launches or other variables. Reporting units resulting from recent acquisitions generally represent the highest risk of impairment, which typically decreases as the businesses are integrated into our enterprise and positioned for improved future sales growth. page 16 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report The assessment of fair value for impairment purposes requires significant judgments to be made by management. Although our forecasts are based on assumptions that are considered reasonable by management and consistent with the plans and estimates management is using to operate the underlying businesses, there is significant judgment in determining the expected results attributable to the report- ing units. Changes in estimates or the application of alternative assumptions could produce significantly different results. No impairment resulted from the annual reviews performed in 2012; however, the fair value of the trade names of one of our reporting units in the RF Technology segment could have fallen below the carrying value at December 31, 2012, had the assumed sales growth been less than that used in the assessment. The reporting unit is a relatively recent acquisition, therefore we do not believe that impairment is probable; however, it is possible that the trade name could become impaired in the future, at which point we would be required to record a non- cash impairment charge to reduce the carrying level of the trade names at the reporting unit. We evaluate whether there has been an impairment of identifiable intangible assets with definite useful economic lives, or of the remaining life of such assets, when certain indicators of impairment are present. In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the cost or remaining period of amortization of any asset may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability would be performed. If an evaluation is required, the estimated future gross, undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset would be compared to the asset’s carrying amount to determine if a write-down to fair value or a revision in the remaining amortization period is required.

Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report page 17 YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012 COMPARED TO YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2011 Net sales for the year ended December 31, 2012 were $2.99 billion as compared to sales of $2.80 billion for the year ended December 31, 2011, an increase of 7%. The increase was the result of organic sales growth of 4%, contributions from acquisitions of 4% and an unfavor- able effect from foreign exchange of 1%. Our Medical and Scientific Imaging segment reported a $93.2 million or 15% increase in net sales for the year ended December 31, 2012 over the year ended December 31, 2011. Acquisitions added $94.3 million in sales, while organic sales increased 1% due to increased sales in our medical and electron microscopy businesses, offset by declines in sales of scientific imaging products. The impact from foreign exchange was a negative 1%. Gross margins increased to 64.4% in the year ended December 31, 2012 from 63.3% in the year ended December 31, 2011, due primarily to additional sales from medical products which have a higher gross margin. Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) as a percentage of net sales decreased to 37.8% in the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to 39.0% in the year ended December 31, 2011 due to investments in new products in the medical businesses in 2011 that did not recur in 2012. Operating margins were 26.6% in the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to 24.3% in the year ended December 31, 2011. In our Energy Systems and Controls segment, net sales for the year ended December 31, 2012 increased by $48.3 million or 8% over the year ended December 31, 2011. Organic sales increased 7% while acquisitions added $18.8 million, or 3%. The increase in organic sales was primarily due to increased demand in industrial process and nuclear plant inspection end markets. The impact from foreign exchange was a negative 2%. Gross margins were 56.3% in the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to 55.5% in the year ended December 31, 2011, due to operating leverage from higher sales volume. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were 28.4% as com- pared to 29.1% in the prior year due to operating leverage from higher sales volume. Operating margins were 27.8% in the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to 26.4% in the year ended December 31, 2011. Net sales for our Industrial Technology segment increased by $57.9 million or 8% for the year ended December 31, 2012 over the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase was due to broad-based growth in nearly all businesses in the segment, with particular strength in our materials testing business and fluid handling businesses, offset in part by a negative 2% impact from foreign exchange. Gross margins were 51.6% for the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to 49.8% in the year ended December 31, 2011 due to operating leverage on higher sales volume as well as a $5.5 million one-time reduction to cost of goods sold at one of our businesses. This reduction is due to the cumulative effect of an accounting system error which caused the cost of goods sold to be overstated for several years by quarterly and annually immaterial amounts. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were 20.8%, as compared to 21.5% in the prior year, due primarily to operating leverage on higher sales volume. The resulting operating profit margins were 30.8% in the year ended December 31, 2012 as compared to 28.2% in the year ended December 31, 2011. In our RF Technology segment, net sales for the year ended December 31, 2012 decreased by $3.0 million over the year ended December 31, 2011. Organic sales were flat as growth in toll and traffic systems was offset by a large installation project in gas network monitoring during 2011 that has since been completed. Gross margins were 52.4% in 2012 as compared to 50.6% in the prior year due to product mix. SG&A as a percentage of sales in the year ended December 31, 2012 was 26.1%, a decrease from 26.8% in the prior year due to lower spending, particularly in selling expense related to toll projects. Operating profit margins were 26.3% in 2012 as compared to 23.8% in 2011. Corporate expenses increased by $20.6 million to $77.5 million, or 2.6% of sales, in 2012 as compared to $56.9 million, or 2.0% of sales, in 2011. The increase was due to $6.5 million of acquisition expense related to the Sunquest acquisition, higher equity compensation (as a result of higher stock prices) and other compensation related costs. Interest expense increased $3.9 million, or 6.1%, for the year ended December 31, 2012 compared to the year ended December 31, 2011. The increase is due primarily to higher average debt balances offset in part by lower average interest rates throughout 2012. Other expense for the year ended December 31, 2012 was $2.3 million, primarily due to foreign exchange losses at our non-U.S. based companies. Other income for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $8.1 million, which was primarily due to a currency remeasurement gain on an intercompany note. During 2012, our effective income tax rate was 29.6% versus 29.4% in 2011. This increase was due to a decrease in R&D deductions. At December 31, 2012, the functional currencies of our Canadian and most of our European subsidiaries were stronger against the U.S. dollar compared to currency exchange rates at December 31, 2011. The net result of these changes led to a pre-tax increase in the foreign exchange component of comprehensive earnings of $24.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2012. Approximately $12.7 million of this amount related to goodwill and is not expected to directly affect our projected future cash flows. For the entire year of 2012, operating profit decreased by 1.3% due to fluctuations in non-U.S. currencies. page 18 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report The following table summarizes our net order information for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 (dollar amounts in thousands).

The increase was the result of organic sales growth of 13%, favorable effect from foreign exchange of 1% and 3% from acquisitions. Our Medical and Scientific Imaging segment reported a $61.9 million or 11.3% increase in net sales for the year ended December 31, 2011 over the year ended December 31, 2010. Acquisitions added $26.1 million in sales, while organic sales increased 5.1% due to increased sales in our electron microscopy and medical businesses. The impact from foreign exchange was a positive 1.4%. Gross margins increased to 63.3% in the year ended December 31, 2011 from 61.3% in the year ended December 31, 2010, due primarily to additional sales from medical products which have a higher gross margin. SG&A as a percentage of net sales increased to 39.0% in the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to 37.5% in the year ended December 31, 2010 due to investments in new products, primarily in the medical businesses. Operating margins were 24.3% in the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to 23.8% in the year ended December 31, 2010. In our Energy Systems and Controls segment, net sales for the year ended December 31, 2011 increased by $93.9 million or 19% over the year ended December 31, 2010. Organic sales increased 16% while acquisitions added $4 million, or 1%. The increase in organic sales was primarily due to increased demand in industrial process end markets and growth in our diesel engine safety systems. The impact from foreign exchange was a positive 2%. Gross margins were 55.5% in the year ended December 31, 2011, compared to 53.7% in the year ended December 31, 2010, due to operating leverage from higher sales volume. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were 29.1% as compared to 29.8% in the prior year due to operating leverage from higher sales volume. Operating margins were 26.4% in the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to 23.9% in the year ended December 31, 2010. Net sales for our Industrial Technology segment increased by $129.8 million or 21% for the year ended December 31, 2011 over the year ended December 31, 2010. The increase was due to broad-based growth in all businesses in the segment, with particular strength in our materials testing and fluid handling businesses, as well as a positive 2% impact from foreign exchange. Gross margins decreased slightly to 49.8% in the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to 51.0% in the year ended December 31, 2010 due to product mix. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were 21.5%, as compared to 24.3% in the prior year, due primarily to operating leverage on higher sales volume. The resulting operating profit margins were 28.2% in the year ended December 31, 2011 as compared to 26.7% in the year ended December 31, 2010. Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report page 19 In our RF Technology segment, net sales for the year ended December 31, 2011 increased by $125.4 million or 17% over the year ended December 31, 2010. Organic sales increased 10% due to strength in sales to colleges and universities, growth in our water and gas network monitoring products and growth in our toll and traffic solutions. Foreign exchange added 1% to sales and acquisitions added 6%. Gross margins were 50.6% in 2011 as compared to 49.4% in the prior year due to product mix. SG&A as a percentage of sales in the year ended December 31, 2011 was 26.8%, a decrease from 28.7% in the prior year due to operating leverage on higher sales volume. Operating profit margins were 23.8% in 2011 as compared to 20.8% in 2010. Corporate expenses increased by $7.5 million to $56.9 million, or 2.0% of sales, in 2011 as compared to $49.4 million, or 2.1% of sales, in 2010. The dollar increase is due to higher equity compensation costs and higher salaries and wages. Interest expense decreased $2.9 million, or 4.3%, for the year ended December 31, 2011 compared to the year ended December 31, 2010. The decrease is due primarily to lower average debt balances and higher interest income throughout 2011. Other income for the year ended December 31, 2011 was $8.1 million, which was primarily due to a currency remeasurement gain on an intercompany note. Other income for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $0.6 million, primarily due to gain on sale of assets offset by foreign exchange losses at our non-U.S. based companies. During 2011, our effective income tax rate was 29.4% versus 28.1% in 2010. This increase was due primarily to a foreign tax credit received in 2010 which did not recur in 2011. At December 31, 2011, the functional currencies of our Canadian and most of our European subsidiaries were weaker against the U.S. dollar compared to currency exchange rates at December 31, 2010. The net result of these changes led to a pre-tax decrease in the foreign exchange component of comprehensive earnings of $11.0 million in the year ending December 31, 2011. Approximately $5.1 million of this amount related to goodwill and is not expected to directly affect our projected future cash flows. For the entire year of 2011, operating profit increased by 1.4% due to fluctuations in non-U.S. currencies. The following table summarizes our net order information for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 (dollar amounts in thousands).

Investing activities—Cash used by investing activities during 2012, 2011, and 2010 was primarily for business acquisitions. Financing activities—Cash used by financing activities in all periods presented was primarily debt repayments as well as dividends paid to stockholders. Cash provided by financing activities during all periods presented was primarily debt borrowings for acquisitions partially offset by debt payments made using cash from operations. Net working capital (current assets, excluding cash, less total current liabilities, excluding debt) was $307.8 million at December 31, 2012 compared to $293.1 million at December 31, 2011. We acquired net working capital of negative $1.9 million through business acquisitions during 2012. Total debt was $2.0 billion at December 31, 2012 (35.4% of total capital) compared to $1.1 billion at December 31, 2011 (25.4% of total capital). Our increased debt at December 31, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011 was due to debt borrowings for acquisitions, partially offset by debt payments made using cash from operations. On July 27, 2012, we entered into a new $1.5 billion unsecured credit facility (the “2012 Facility”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders, as more fully described below under the heading “Description of Certain Indebtedness— Senior Unsecured Credit Facility.” At December 31, 2012, there were $100 million of outstanding borrowings under the 2012 Facility, $500 million of senior notes due 2013, $400 million of senior notes due 2017, $500 million of senior notes due 2019, $500 million of senior notes due 2022 and $11.6 million in senior subordinated convertible notes due 2034. In addition, we had $5.4 million of other debt in the form of capital leases and several smaller facilities that allow for borrowings or the issuance of letters of credit in foreign locations to support our non-U.S. businesses. We had $42.7 million of outstanding letters of credit at December 31, 2012, of which $36.8 million was covered by our lending group, thereby reducing our remaining revolving credit capacity commensurately. On November 21, 2012, we completed a public offering of $400 million aggregate principal amount of 1.850% senior unsecured notes due November 15, 2017 and $500 million aggregate principal amount of 3.125% senior unsecured notes due November 15, 2022. The terms of the notes are described below under the headings “Description of Certain Indebtedness-Senior Notes due 2017” and “Descriptions of Certain Indebtedness-Senior Notes due 2022.” The cash and short-term investments at our foreign subsidiaries at December 31, 2012 totaled $295 million. Repatriation of these funds under current regulatory and tax law for use in domestic operations would expose us to additional taxes. We consider this cash to be per- manently reinvested. We expect that cash flows from existing business combined with our available borrowing capacity will be sufficient to fund operating requirements in the U.S. We were in compliance with all debt covenants related to our credit facilities throughout the year ended December 31, 2012. Capital expenditures of $38.4 million, $40.7 million and $28.6 million were incurred during 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. In the future, we expect capital expenditures as a percentage of sales to be between 1.0% and 1.5% of annual net sales. Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report page 21 DESCRIPTION OF CERTAIN INDEBTEDNESS Senior Unsecured Credit Facility—On July 27, 2012, we entered into a new $1.5 billion unsecured credit facility (the “2012 Facility”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders, which replaced our previous unsecured credit facility dated as of July 7, 2008 (the “2008 Facility”). The 2012 Facility is composed of a five-year $1.5 billion revolving credit facility. We recorded a $1.0 million non-cash debt extinguishment charge in the third quarter of 2012 related to the early termination of the 2008 Facility. This charge reflects the unamortized fees associated with the 2008 Facility and was reported as other expense. We may also, subject to compliance with specified conditions, request term loans or additional revolving credit commitments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $350 million. At December 31, 2012, there were $100 million of outstanding borrowings under the 2012 Facility. The facility contains various affirmative and negative covenants which, among other things, limit our ability to incur new debt, prepay subordinated debt, make certain investments and acquisitions, sell assets and grant liens, make restricted payments (including the payment of dividends on our common stock) and capital expenditures, or change our line of business. We also are subject to financial covenants which require us to limit our consolidated total leverage ratio and to maintain a consolidated interest coverage ratio. The most restrictive covenant is the consolidated total leverage ratio which is limited to 3.5. Senior Notes due 2017—In November 2012, we completed a public offering of $400 million aggregate principal amount of 1.850% senior unsecured notes due November 2017. Net proceeds of $397.2 million were used to pay off a portion of the outstanding revolver balance under the 2012 Facility. The notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 1.850% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning May 15, 2013. We may redeem some or all of these notes at any time or from time to time, at 100% of their principal amount, plus a make-whole premium based on a spread to U.S. Treasury securities. The notes are unsecured senior obligations of the Company and rank senior in right of payment with all of our existing and future subor- dinated indebtedness and rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness. The notes are effectively subordinated to any of our existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. The notes are not guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries and are effectively subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries. Senior Notes due 2022—In November 2012, we completed a public offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 3.125% senior unsecured notes due November 2022. Net proceeds of $496.4 million were used to pay off a portion of the outstanding revolver balance under the 2012 Facility. The notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 3.125% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning May 15, 2013. We may redeem some or all of these notes at any time or from time to time, at 100% of their principal amount, plus a make-whole premium based on a spread to U.S. Treasury securities. The notes are unsecured senior obligations of the Company and rank senior in right of payment with all of our existing and future subor- dinated indebtedness and rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness. The notes are effectively subordinated to any of our existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. The notes are not guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries and are effectively subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries. Senior Notes due 2019—In September 2009, we completed a public offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6.25% senior unsecured notes due September 2019. Net proceeds of $496 million were used to pay off our $350 million term loan originally due July 2010 and the outstanding revolver balance under the 2008 Facility. The notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.25% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, beginning March 1, 2010. page 22 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report We may redeem some or all of these notes at any time or from time to time, at 100% of their principal amount, plus a make-whole premium based on a spread to U.S. Treasury securities. The notes are unsecured senior obligations of the Company and rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The notes are effectively subordinated to any of our existing and future secured indebted- ness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. The notes are not guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries and are effectively subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries. Senior Notes due 2013—On August 6, 2008, we issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% senior notes due August, 2013. These notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.625% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning February 15, 2009. The interest payable on the notes is subject to adjustment if either Moody’s Investors Service or Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services downgrades the rating assigned to the notes. We may redeem some or all of the notes at any time or from time to time, at 100% of their principal amount plus a make-whole premium based on a spread to U.S. Treasury securities as described in the indenture relating to the notes. The notes are unsecured senior obligations of the Company and rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The notes are effectively subordinated to any of our existing and future secured indebted- ness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. The notes are not guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries and are effectively subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries. During 2009 we entered into an aggregate notional amount of $500 million in interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges, which effectively changed our $500 million senior notes due 2013 with a fixed interest rate of 6.625% to a variable-rate obligation at a weighted- average spread of 4.377% plus the three month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”). Due to the application of fair value hedge accounting for the swaps, the notes are shown in the balance sheet net of a $5.1 million fair value adjustment at December 31, 2012 and $11.7 million at December 31, 2011. Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes—In December 2003, we issued $230 million of senior subordinated convertible notes at an original issue discount of 60.498%, resulting in an effective yield of 3.75% per year to maturity. Interest on the notes was payable semi- annually, beginning July 15, 2004, until January 15, 2009, after which cash interest is not paid on the notes prior to maturity unless contingent cash interest becomes payable. As of January 15, 2009, interest is recognized at the effective rate of 3.75% and represents accrual of original issue discount, excluding any contingent cash interest that may become payable. We will pay contingent cash interest to the holders of the notes during any six month period commencing after January 15, 2009 if the average trading price of a note for a five trading day measurement period preceding the applicable six month period equals 120% or more of the sum of the issue price, accrued original issue discount and accrued cash interest, if any, for such note. The contingent cash interest payable per note in respect of any six month period will equal the annual rate of 0.25%. In accordance with this criterion, contingent interest has been paid for each six month period since January 15, 2009. The notes are unsecured senior subordinated obligations, rank junior to our existing and future senior secured indebtedness and rank equally with our existing and future senior subordinated indebtedness. As originally issued, each $1,000 principal amount of the notes will be convertible at the option of the holder into 12.422 shares of our common stock (giving effect to the 2-for-1 stock split effective August 26, 2005 and subject to further adjustment), if (i) the sale price of our common stock reaches, or the trading price of the notes falls below, specified thresholds, (ii) if the notes are called for redemption or (iii) if specified corporate transactions have occurred. Upon conversion, we would have the right to deliver, in lieu of common stock, cash or a combination of cash and common stock. On November 19, 2004, we began a consent solicitation to amend the notes such that we would pay the same conversion value upon conversion of the notes, but would change how the conversion value is paid. In lieu of receiv- ing exclusively shares of common stock or cash upon conversion, noteholders would receive cash up to the value of the accreted principal amount of the notes converted and, at our option, any remainder of the conversion value would be paid in cash or shares of common stock. The consent solicitation was successfully completed on December 6, 2004 and the amended conversion provisions were adopted. Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report page 23 As of September 30, 2005, the senior subordinated convertible notes were reclassified from long-term to short-term debt as the notes became convertible on October 1, 2005 based upon our common stock trading above the trigger price for at least 20 trading days during the 30 consecutive trading-day period ending on September 30, 2005. Holders may require us to purchase all or a portion of their notes on January 15, 2014, January 15, 2019, January 15, 2024, and January 15, 2029, at stated prices plus accrued cash interest, if any, including contingent cash interest, if any. We may only pay the purchase price of such notes in cash and not in common stock. We may redeem for cash all or a portion of the notes at any time at redemption prices equal to the sum of the issue price plus accrued original issue discount and accrued cash interest, if any, including contingent cash interest, if any, on such notes to the applicable redemption date. The Company includes in its diluted weighted-average common share calculation an increase in shares based upon the difference between our average closing stock price for the period and the conversion price of $31.80, plus accretion. This is calculated using the treasury stock method. CONTRACTUAL CASH OBLIGATIONS AND OTHER COMMERCIAL COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES The following tables quantify our contractual cash obligations and commercial commitments at December 31, 2012 (in thousands).

See Note 8 of the notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. (2) We have excluded interest on the senior notes due 2013, as they have been effectively converted to variable-rate debt due to interest rate swaps. See “Description of Certain Indebtedness” above. At December 31, 2012, we had outstanding surety bonds of $402 million. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, we did not have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off- balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. We believe that internally generated cash flows and the remaining availability under our credit facilities will be adequate to finance normal operating requirements and future acquisition activities. Although we maintain an active acquisition program, any future acquisitions will be dependent on numerous factors and it is not feasible to reasonably estimate if or when any such acquisitions will occur and what the impact will be on our activities, financial condition and results of operations. We may also explore alternatives to attract additional capital resources. page 24 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report We anticipate that our recently acquired businesses as well as our other businesses will generate positive cash flows from operating activities, and that these cash flows will permit the reduction of currently outstanding debt in accordance with the repayment schedule. However, the rate at which we can reduce our debt during 2013 (and reduce the associated interest expense) will be affected by, among other things, the financing and operating requirements of any new acquisitions and the financial performance of our existing companies. None of these factors can be predicted with certainty. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS See Note 1 of our notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding the effect of new accounting pronouncements on our financial statements. ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK We are exposed to interest rate risks on our outstanding borrowings, and to foreign currency exchange risks on our transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We are also exposed to equity market risks pertaining to the traded price of our common stock. At December 31, 2012, we had a combination of fixed and floating rate borrowings. Our credit facility contains a $1.5 billion variable-rate revolver with outstanding borrowings of $100 million at December 31, 2012. Our $400 million senior notes due 2017, $500 million senior notes due 2019 and $500 million senior notes due 2022 have fixed interest rates of 1.850%, 3.125% and 6.250%, respectively, and our $12 million senior unsecured convertible notes have a fixed interest rate of 3.75%. Our $500 million senior notes due 2013 have a fixed interest rate of 6.625%; however, in October 2009 we entered into three interest rate swap agreements totaling $500 million that expire August 2013. The swaps, which are designated as fair value hedges, effectively convert the notes to a weighted-average variable-rate obligation with a spread of 4.377% plus LIBOR. At December 31, 2012, the prevailing market rates for our long-term notes were between 0.3% higher and 4.5% lower than the fixed rates on our debt instruments. At December 31, 2012, our outstanding variable-rate borrowings were the $100 million of outstanding revolver borrowings and the $500 million senior notes due 2013. An increase in interest rates of 1% would increase our annualized interest costs by $6.0 million. Several of our businesses have transactions and balances denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Most of these transactions or balances are denominated in euros, Canadian dollars, British pounds or Danish krone. Sales by companies whose functional currency was not the U.S. dollar were 25% of our total sales in 2012 and 60% of these sales were by companies with a European functional currency. The U.S. dollar was stronger against most currencies throughout most of 2012 as compared to 2011, which resulted in a decrease in sales of 1.0% due to foreign currency exchange. If these currency exchange rates had been 10% different throughout 2012 compared to currency exchange rates actually experienced, the impact on our net earnings would have been approximately 2.5%. The changes in these currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar at December 31, 2012 compared to currency exchange rates at December 31, 2011 resulted in a pre-tax increase in net assets of $23.6 million that was reported as a component of comprehensive earn- ings, $12.7 million of which was attributed to goodwill. Goodwill changes from currency exchange rate changes do not directly affect our reported earnings or cash flows. The trading price of our common stock influences the valuation of stock award grants and the effects these grants have on our results of operations. The stock price also influences the computation of potentially dilutive common stock which includes both stock awards and the premium over the conversion price on senior subordinated convertible notes to determine diluted earnings per share. The stock price also affects our employees’ perceptions of programs that involve our common stock. We believe the quantification of the effects of these changing prices on our future earnings and cash flows is not readily determinable. Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report page 25 ITEM 8.

In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2) presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements and financial statement schedule, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements, on the financial statement schedule, and on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions. A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with gener- ally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authori- zations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. As described in Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management has excluded acquisitions completed during 2012 from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012 because they were acquired by the Company in purchase business combinations during 2012. We have also excluded acquisitions completed during 2012 from our audit of internal control over financial reporting. These acquisitions are wholly-owned subsidiaries whose total assets and total revenues represent 2.1% and 1.1%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012. /s/PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP Tampa, Florida February 25, 2013 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report page 27 ROPER INDUSTRIES, INC.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Years Ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 (1) SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation—These financial statements present consolidated information for Roper Industries, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Roper” or the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Nature of the Business—Roper is a diversified growth company that designs, manufactures and distributes energy systems and controls, medical and scientific imaging products and software, industrial technology products and radio frequency products, services and appli- cation software. Roper markets these products and services to a broad range of markets, including radio frequency applications, medical, water, energy, research, education, software-as-a-service (“SaaS”)-based information networks, security and other niche markets. Accounts Receivable—Accounts receivable were stated net of an allowance for doubtful accounts and sales allowances of $16.0 million and $10.6 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Outstanding accounts receivable balances are reviewed periodically, and allowances are provided at such time that management believes it is probable that an account receivable is uncollectible. The returns and other sales credit allowance is an estimate of customer returns, exchanges, discounts or other forms of anticipated concessions and is treated as a reduction in revenue. Cash and Cash Equivalents—Roper considers highly liquid financial instruments with remaining maturities at acquisition of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Roper had no cash equivalents at December 31, 2012 and $136 million at December 31, 2011. Contingencies—Management continually assesses the probability of any adverse judgments or outcomes to its potential contingencies. Disclosure of the contingency is made if there is at least a reasonable possibility that a loss or an additional loss may have been incurred. In the assessment of contingencies as of December 31, 2012, management concluded that no accrual was necessary and that there were no matters for which there was a reasonable possibility of a material loss. Earnings per Share—Basic earnings per share were calculated using net earnings and the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the respective year. Diluted earnings per share were calculated using net earnings and the weighted-average number of shares of common stock and potential common stock outstanding during the respective year. Potentially dilutive common stock consisted of stock options and the premium over the conversion price on Roper’s senior subordinated convertible notes based upon the trading price of the Company’s common stock. The effects of potential common stock were determined using the treasury stock method (in thousands): Basic weighted-average shares outstanding Effect of potential common stock: Common stock awards Senior subordinated convertible notes Diluted weighted-average shares outstanding Years Ended December 31, 2012 2011 2010 97,702 95,959 94,242 1,040 816 1,213 1,214 1,009 1,402 99,558 98,386 96,653 As of and for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, there were 547,591, 760,000 and 1,143,350 outstanding stock options, respectively, that were not included in the determination of diluted earnings per share because doing so would have been antidilutive. Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions—Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar were translated at the exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date, and revenues and expenses were translated at average exchange rates for the period in which those entities were included in Roper’s financial results. Translation adjustments are reflected as a component of other comprehensive income. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are recorded in the income statement as other income/ (expense). The gain or loss included in pre-tax income was a net loss of $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, a net gain of $6.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and a net loss of $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. page 32 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report Goodwill and Other Intangibles—Roper accounts for goodwill in a purchase business combination as the excess of the cost over the fair value of net assets acquired. Business combinations can also result in other intangible assets being recognized. Amortization of intangible assets, if applicable, occurs over their estimated useful lives. Goodwill, which is not amortized, is tested for impairment on an annual basis (or an interim basis if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value) using a two-step process. The first step of the process utilizes both an income approach (discounted cash flows) and a market approach consisting of a comparable public company earnings multiples methodology to estimate the fair value of a reporting unit. To determine the reasonableness of the estimated fair values, the Company reviews the assumptions to ensure that neither the income approach nor the market approach provides significantly different valuations. If the estimated fair value exceeds the carrying value, no further work is required and no impairment loss is recognized. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value, the goodwill of the reporting unit is potentially impaired and then the second step would be completed in order to measure the impairment loss by calculating the implied fair value of goodwill by deducting the fair value of all tangible and intangible net assets (including unrecognized intangible assets) of the reporting unit from the fair value of the reporting unit. If the implied fair value of goodwill is less than the carry- ing value of goodwill, a non-cash impairment loss would be recognized. Key assumptions used in the income and market methodologies are updated when the analysis is performed for each reporting unit. Various assumptions are utilized including forecasted operating results, strategic plans, economic projections, anticipated future cash flows, the weighted-average cost of capital, comparable transactions, market data and earnings multiples. The assumptions that have the most significant effect on the fair value calculations are the anticipated future cash flows, discount rates, and the earnings multiples. While the Company uses reasonable and timely information to prepare its cash flow and discount rate assumptions, actual future cash flows or market conditions could differ significantly resulting in future impairment charges related to recorded goodwill balances. Total goodwill includes 27 reporting units with individual amounts ranging from zero to $992 million. The Company concluded that the fair value of each of its reporting units was significantly in excess of its carrying value, with no impairment indicated as of December 31, 2012. However, negative industry or economic trends, disruptions to its business, actual results significantly below expected results, unexpected significant changes or planned changes in the use of the assets, divestitures and market capitalization declines may have a negative effect on the fair value of Roper’s reporting units. The following events or circumstances would be considered to determine whether interim testing of goodwill would be required: • a significant adverse change in legal factors or in the business climate; • an adverse action or assessment by a regulator; • unanticipated competition; • a loss of key personnel; • a more-likely-than-not expectation that a reporting unit or a significant portion of a reporting unit will be sold or otherwise disposed of; • the testing for recoverability under the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets of a significant asset group within a reporting unit; and • recognition of a goodwill impairment loss in the financial statements of a subsidiary that is a component of a reporting unit. Business combinations can also result in other intangible assets being recognized. Amortization of intangible assets, if applicable, occurs over their estimated useful lives. Trade names are determined to have an indefinite useful economic life and are not amortized, but sepa- rately tested for impairment during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year or on an interim basis if an event occurs that indicates the fair value is more likely than not below the carrying value. Roper conducts these reviews for all of its reporting units using the relief-from-royalty method, which management believes to be an acceptable methodology due to its common use by valuations specialists in determining the fair value of intangible assets. This methodology assumes that, in lieu of ownership, a third party would be willing to pay a royalty in order to exploit the related benefits of these assets. The fair value of each trade name is determined by applying a royalty rate to a projec- tion of net sales discounted using a risk adjusted rate of capital. Each royalty rate is determined based on the profitability of the reporting unit to which it relates and observed market royalty rates. Sales growth rates are determined after considering current and future economic conditions, recent sales trends, discussions with customers, planned timing of new product launches or other variables. The assessment of fair value for impairment purposes requires significant judgments to be made by management. Although forecasts are based on assumptions that are considered reasonable by management and consistent with the plans and estimates management is using to operate the underlying businesses, there is significant judgment in determining the expected results attributable to the reporting units. Changes in estimates or the application of alternative assumptions could produce significantly different results. No impairment resulted from the annual reviews performed in 2012. Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report page 33 Roper evaluates whether there has been an impairment of identifiable intangible assets with definite useful economic lives, or of the remaining life of such assets, when certain indicators of impairment are present. In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the cost or remaining period of amortization of any asset may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability would be performed. If an evaluation is required, the estimated future gross, undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset would be compared to the asset’s carrying amount to determine if a write-down to fair value or a revision in the remaining amortization period is required. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets—The Company determines whether there has been an impairment of long-lived assets, excluding goodwill and identifiable intangible assets that are determined to have indefinite useful economic lives, when certain indicators of impairment are present. In the event that facts and circumstances indicate that the cost or life of any long-lived assets may be impaired, an evaluation of recoverability would be performed. If an evaluation is required, the estimated future gross, undiscounted cash flows associated with the asset would be compared to the asset’s carrying amount to determine if a write-down to fair value or revision to remaining life is required. Future adverse changes in market conditions or poor operating results of underlying long-lived assets could result in losses or an inability to recover the carrying value of the long-lived assets that may not be reflected in the assets’ current carry- ing value, thereby possibly requiring an impairment charge or acceleration of depreciation or amortization expense in the future. Income Taxes—Roper is a U.S.-based multinational company and the calculation of its worldwide provision for income taxes requires analysis of many factors, including income tax systems that vary from country to country, and the United States’ treatment of non-U.S. earnings. The Company provides U.S. income taxes for unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries that are not considered permanently reinvested overseas. As of December 31, 2012, the approximate amount of earnings of foreign subsidiaries that the Company considers permanently reinvested and for which deferred taxes have not been provided was approximately $1.05 billion. Because of the availability of U.S. foreign tax credits, it is not practicable to determine the U.S. federal income tax liability that would be payable if such earnings were not reinvested indefinitely. Although it is the Company’s intention to permanently reinvest these earnings indefinitely there are certain events that would cause these earnings to become taxable. These events include, but are not limited to, changes in U.S. tax laws, dividends paid between foreign subsidiaries in the absence of Section 954(c)(6) of the Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”), foreign subsidiary guarantees of U.S. parent debt and the liquidation of foreign subsidiaries or actual distributions by foreign subsidiaries into a U.S. affiliate. Certain assets and liabilities have different bases for financial reporting and income tax purposes. Deferred income taxes have been provided for these differences at the tax rates expected to be paid. Interest Rate Risk—The Company manages interest rate risk by maintaining a combination of fixed- and variable-rate debt, which may include interest rate swaps to convert fixed-rate debt to variable-rate debt, or to convert variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt. Interest rate swaps are recorded at fair value in the balance sheet as an asset or liability, and the changes in fair values of both the swap and the hedged item are recorded as interest expense in current earnings. Inventories—Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the first-in, first-out method. The Company writes down its inventory for estimated obsolescence or excess inventory equal to the difference between the cost of inventory and the estimated market value based upon assumptions about future demand and market conditions. Other Comprehensive Income—Comprehensive income includes net earnings and all other non-owner sources of changes in a company’s net assets. Product Warranties—The Company sells certain of its products to customers with a product warranty that allows customers to return a defective product during a specified warranty period following the purchase in exchange for a replacement product, repair at no cost to the customer or the issuance of a credit to the customer. The Company accrues its estimated exposure to warranty claims based upon current and historical product sales data, warranty costs incurred and any other related information known to the Company. Property, Plant and Equipment and Depreciation and Amortization—Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization are provided for using principally the straight-line method over the esti- mated useful lives of the assets as follows: Buildings Machinery Other equipment 20–30 years 8–12 years 3–5 years page 34 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report Recently Released Accounting Pronouncements—In July 2012, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an amend- ment to accounting rules related to the testing of indefinite-lived intangibles. The new accounting rules permit an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test prescribed under current accounting rules. The guidance is effective for annual and interim tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. The Company does not expect these rules to have a material effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. In May 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to accounting and disclosures related to fair value measurement. This amendment results in common principles and requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accord- ance with GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. Roper adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012. The guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. In June 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to the disclosure of comprehensive income. This amendment requires the presentation of total comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Roper adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012. The guidance did not have an impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows as it is disclosure only in nature. In September 2011, the FASB issued new accounting rules related to testing goodwill for impairment. The new accounting rules permit an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If it is concluded that this is the case, it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test prescribed under current accounting rules. Otherwise, the two-step goodwill impairment test is not required. Roper adopted this guidance on January 1, 2012. The guidance did not have a material effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Research and Development—Research and development (“R&D”) costs include salaries and benefits, rents, supplies, and other costs related to products under development. Research and development costs are expensed in the period incurred and totaled $125.9 million, $121.7 million and $102.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Revenue Recognition—The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following criteria are met: • persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; • delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; • the seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable; and • collectibility is reasonably assured. In addition, the Company recognizes revenue from the sale of product when title and risk of loss pass to the customer, which is generally when product is shipped. The Company recognizes revenue from services when such services are rendered or, if applicable, upon cus- tomer acceptance. Revenues under certain relatively long-term and relatively large-value construction projects are recognized under the percentage-of-completion method using the ratio of costs incurred to total estimated costs as the measure of performance. The Company recognized revenues of $145.5 million, $151.5 million and $131.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respec- tively, using this method. Estimated losses on any projects are recognized as soon as such losses become known. Capitalized Software—The Company accounts for capitalized software under applicable accounting guidance which, among other provi- sions, requires capitalization of certain internal-use software costs once certain criteria are met. Overhead, general and administrative and training costs are not capitalized. Capitalized software was $10.9 million and $14.1 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Stock-Based Compensation—The Company recognizes expense for the grant date fair value of its employee stock option awards on a straight-line basis over the employee’s requisite service period (generally the vesting period of the award). The fair value of its option awards is estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model and recognizes the expense of all share-based awards. The Company presents the cash flows resulting from the tax benefits arising from tax deductions in excess of the compensation cost recognized for stock award exercises (excess tax benefits) as financing cash flows. (2) BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS 2012 Acquisitions—During the year ended December 31, 2012, Roper completed six business combinations. The results of operations of the acquired companies have been included in Roper’s consolidated results since the date of each acquisition. Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report page 35 The largest of the 2012 acquisitions was Sunquest Information Systems, Inc. (“Sunquest”), a leading provider of diagnostic and laboratory software solutions to healthcare providers. Roper acquired 100% of the shares of Sunquest on August 22, 2012, in a $1.416 billion all-cash transaction. The Company acquired Sunquest in order to complement and expand its medical platform. Sunquest is reported in the Medical & Scientific Imaging segment. The Company expensed transaction costs of $6.5 million related to the acquisition as corporate general and administrative expenses, as incurred. The following table (in thousands) summarizes the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition. The allocation of the purchase price is considered preliminary pending final intangible asset valuations and tax adjustments.

Of the $669 million of acquired intangible assets acquired, $98 million was assigned to trade names that are not subject to amortization. The remaining $571 million of acquired intangible assets have a weighted-average useful life of 18 years. The intangible assets that make up that amount include customer relationships of $460 million (20 year weighted-average useful life) and software of $111 million (12 year weighted-average useful life). Roper’s results for the year ended December 31, 2012 included results from Sunquest between August 22, 2012 and December 31, 2012. In that period, Sunquest contributed $69.4 million in revenue and $8.8 million of earnings (inclusive of deal-related costs) to Roper’s results. The following unaudited pro forma summary presents consolidated information as if the acquisition of Sunquest had occurred on January 1, 2011 (amounts in thousands, except per share data): Sales Net income Earnings per share, basic Earnings per share, diluted Pro Forma Year Ended December 31, 2012 2011 $3,130,407 $2,967,415 521,141 454,059 5.33 5.23 4.73 4.62 Pro forma earnings for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were adjusted by $50.7 million and $9.2 million, respectively, for non-recurring acquisition and other costs. Adjustments were also made to pro forma earnings for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 for recurring changes in amortization, interest expense and taxes related to the acquisition. During the year ended December 31, 2012, Roper completed five other acquisitions which were immaterial. The aggregate purchase price of these acquisitions totaled $62 million of cash. The Company recorded $43 million in other identifiable intangibles and $16 million in goodwill in connection with these acquisitions. The Company expensed transaction costs of $1 million related to these acquisitions as corporate general and administrative expenses, as incurred. Supplemental pro forma information has not been provided as the acquisitions did not have a material impact on Roper’s consolidated results of operations individually or in aggregate. The majority of the goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Of the $43 million of acquired intangible assets acquired, $1 million was assigned to trade names that are not subject to amortization. The remaining $42 million of acquired intangible assets have a weighted-average useful life of 7 years. The intangible assets that make up that amount include customer relationships of $17 mil- lion (7 year weighted-average useful life), protective rights and patents of $16 million (7 year weighted-average useful life) and unpatented technology of $8 million (8 year weighted-average useful life). page 36 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report 2011 Acquisitions—During the year ended December 31, 2011, Roper completed three business combinations. The results of operations of the acquired companies have been included in Roper’s consolidated results since the date of each acquisition. Supplemental pro forma information has not been provided as the acquisitions did not have a material impact on Roper’s consolidated results of operations indi- vidually or in aggregate. The aggregate purchase price of 2011 acquisitions totaled $234 million of cash. The Company recorded $91 million in other identifiable intangibles and $149 million in goodwill in connection with these acquisitions. The majority of the goodwill is not expected to be deduct- ible for tax purposes. The Company expensed transaction costs of $2.2 million related to these acquisitions, as incurred. On June 3, 2011, Roper acquired 100% of the shares of NDI Holding Corp. (“Northern Digital”), a provider of 3-D measurement technology for medical applications in computer-assisted surgery and computer-assisted therapy. Roper acquired Northern Digital as an addition to its medical platform, and it is reported in the Medical and Scientific Imaging segment. On September 26, 2011, Roper acquired 100% of the shares of United Controls Group, Inc. (“UCG”), a manufacturer of control systems in the oil and gas industry. UCG was acquired as an addition to our existing process control systems businesses, and is reported in the Energy Systems and Controls segment. On December 1, 2011, Roper acquired 100% of the shares of Trinity Integrated Systems Ltd. (“Trinity”), a specialist provider of require- ments capture, safety lifecycle management and engineering software tools, and safety and control system solutions to the oil and gas, industrial process and control markets. Trinity was acquired as an addition to our existing process control systems businesses, and is reported in the Energy Systems and Controls segment. Of the $91 million of acquired intangible assets acquired in 2011, $3 million was assigned to trade names that are not subject to amortization. The remaining $88 million of acquired intangible assets have a weighted-average useful life of approximately 11 years. The intangible assets that make up that amount include customer relationships of $70 million (12 year weighted-average useful life), and unpatented technology of $18 million (8 year weighted-average useful life). 2010 Acquisitions—During the year ended December 31, 2010, Roper completed two business combinations. The results of operations of the acquired companies have been included in Roper’s consolidated results since the date of each acquisition. Supplemental pro forma information has not been provided as the acquisitions did not have a material impact on Roper’s consolidated results of operations indi- vidually or in aggregate. The aggregate purchase price of 2010 acquisitions totaled $538 million of cash. The Company recorded $320 million in other identifiable intangibles and $327 million in goodwill, $97 million of which was recorded due to a deferred tax liability related to intangible assets, in connection with these acquisitions. The majority of the goodwill is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The Company expensed transaction costs of $2.1 million related to these acquisitions. iTrade Acquisition—The largest of the 2010 acquisitions was the purchase of all outstanding shares of iTradeNetwork, Inc. on July 27, 2010. iTrade, whose operations are reported in the RF Technology segment, is a global provider of software as a service (“SaaS”)-based trading network and business intelligence solutions primarily to the perishable food market. iTrade’s principal facilities are located in Pleasanton, California. The aggregate gross purchase price was $523 million of cash. The Company acquired iTrade in order to complement and expand existing software services at other Roper businesses.

Components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31 were as follows (in thousands): Deferred tax assets: Reserves and accrued expenses Inventories Net operating loss carryforwards R&D credits Foreign tax credits Valuation allowance Total deferred tax assets Deferred tax liabilities: Reserves and accrued expenses Amortizable intangible assets Plant and equipment Total deferred tax liabilities 2012 2011 $ 63,703 $ 72,150 9,171 21,161 6,331 20,270 — 7,104 20,642 1,114 — — $ 120,636 $ 101,010 $ 10,766 691,536 8,844 $ 33,861 456,613 2,677 $ 711,146 $ 493,151 At December 31, 2012, Roper has approximately $34.3 million of U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards. If not utilized, these carryforwards will expire in years 2023 through 2032. The net operating loss carryforward increased between 2011 and 2012 primarily because of losses incurred by a U.S. entity that is not a member of the Company’s consolidated tax group and whose losses are therefore not available for offset against the taxable income of other members of the group. Also, due to a recent acquisition, the consolidated group has acquired a net operating loss subject to an IRC Section 382 limitation; however, the Company expects to utilize the entire net operating loss prior to expiration. The majority of the state net operating loss carryforward is related to Florida and, if not utilized, will expire in years 2027 through 2030. The Company has smaller net operating losses in various other states. Additionally, Roper has foreign tax credit carryforwards and R&D credit carryforwards. Roper has not recognized a valuation allowance on these attributes since management has determined that it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize these deferred tax assets. page 40 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report The Company provides income taxes for unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries that are not considered permanently reinvested overseas. As of December 31, 2012, the approximate amount of earnings of foreign subsidiaries that the Company considers permanently reinvested and for which deferred taxes have not been provided was approximately $1.05 billion. Because of the availability of U.S. foreign tax credits, it is not practicable to determine the U.S. federal income tax liability that would be payable if such earnings were not reinvested indefinitely. Although it is the Company’s intention to permanently reinvest these earnings indefinitely there are certain events that would cause these earnings to become taxable. These events include, but are not limited to, change in U.S. tax laws, dividends paid between foreign subsidiaries in the absence of Section 954(c)(6) of the IRC, foreign subsidiary guarantees of U.S. parent debt and the liquidation of foreign subsidiaries or actual distributions by foreign subsidiaries into a U.S. affiliate. The Company recognizes in the consolidated financial statements only those tax positions determined to be “more likely than not” of being sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the positions. A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows (in thousands): Beginning balance Additions for tax positions of prior periods Additions for tax positions of the current period Additions due to acquisitions Reductions for tax positions of prior periods Reductions for tax positions of the current period Settlements with taxing authorities Lapse of applicable statute of limitations Ending balance 2012 2011 2010 $19,556 $24,765 $22,922 1,371 1,541 9,116 (197) (6,522) 470 2,572 — (558) (4,043) (3,650) 203 3,169 3,546 (565) — (4,510) $24,865 $19,556 $24,765 The total amount of unrecognized tax benefits that, if recognized, would affect the effective tax rate is $21.6 million. Interest and penal- ties related to unrecognized tax benefits are classified as a component of income tax expense and totaled $1.5 million in 2012. Accrued interest and penalties were $5.0 million at December 31, 2012 and $3.5 million at December 31, 2011. During the next twelve months, the unrecognized tax benefits are expected to decrease by a net $0.6 million, due mainly to a lapse in the applicable statute of limitations. The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state, city and foreign jurisdic- tions. The Company’s federal income tax returns for 2009 through the current period remain subject to examination and the relevant state, city and foreign statutes vary. There are no current tax examinations in progress where the Company expects the assessment of any significant additional tax in excess of amounts reserved. (9) LONG-TERM DEBT On July 27, 2012, Roper entered into a new $1.5 billion unsecured credit facility (the “2012 Facility”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders, which replaced its existing unsecured credit facility dated as of July 7, 2008 (the “2008 Facility”). The 2012 Facility is composed of a five year $1.5 billion revolving credit facility. Roper may also, subject to compliance with specified conditions, request term loans or additional revolving credit commitments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $350 million. At December 31, 2012, there were $100 million of outstanding borrowings under the 2012 Facility. Roper recorded a $1.0 million non- cash debt extinguishment charge in the third quarter of 2012 related to the early termination of the 2008 Facility. This charge reflects the unamortized fees associated with the 2008 Facility and was reported as other expense. On November 21, 2012, Roper completed a public offering of $400 million aggregate principal amount of 1.850% senior unsecured notes due November 15, 2017 and $500 million aggregate principal amount of 3.125% senior unsecured notes due November 15, 2022. The notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 1.850% and 3.125% per year, respectively, payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning May 15, 2013. Roper may redeem some or all of the notes at any time or from time to time, at 100% of their principal amount plus a make-whole premium based on a spread to U.S. Treasury securities as described in the indenture relating to the notes. Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report page 41 The notes are unsecured senior obligations of the Company and rank senior in right of payment with all of its existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and rank equally in right of payment with all of its existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness. The notes are effectively subordinated to any of Roper’s existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. The notes are not guaranteed by any of Roper’s subsidiaries and are effectively subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of its subsidiaries. In September 2009, the Company completed a public offering of $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6.25% senior unsecured notes due September 2019. The notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.25% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, beginning March 1, 2010. Roper may redeem some or all of these notes at any time or from time to time, at 100% of their principal amount, plus a make-whole premium based on a spread to U.S. Treasury securities. The notes are unsecured senior obligations of the Company and rank equally in right of payment with all of Roper’s existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The notes are effectively subordinated to any of its existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. The notes are not guaranteed by any of Roper’s subsidiaries and are effectively subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of Roper’s subsidiaries. On August 6, 2008, Roper issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% senior notes due August 15, 2013. The notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.625% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning February 15, 2009. The interest payable on the notes is subject to adjustment if either Moody’s Investors Service or Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services downgrades the rating assigned to the notes. Roper may redeem some or all of the notes at any time or from time to time, at 100% of their principal amount plus a make-whole premium based on a spread to U.S. Treasury securities as described in the indenture relating to the notes. The notes are unsecured senior obligations of the Company and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The notes are effectively subordinated to any of the Company’s existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness. The notes are not guaranteed by any of the Company’s subsidiaries and are effectively subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of the Company’s subsidiaries. Other debt includes $12 million of senior subordinated convertible notes due 2034. Total debt at December 31 consisted of the following (in thousands): $1.50 billion revolving credit facility 2013 Notes* 2017 Notes 2019 Notes 2022 Notes Senior Subordinated Convertible Notes Other Total debt Less current portion Long-term debt 2012 2011 $ 100,000 $ — 505,087 400,000 500,000 500,000 11,594 5,441 511,652 — 500,000 — 67,250 6,114 2,022,122 519,015 1,085,016 69,906 $ 1,503,107 $ 1,015,110 *Shown net of fair value swap adjustment of $5,087 at December 31, 2012 and $11,652 at December 31, 2011. The 2012 Facility and Roper’s $1.9 billion senior notes and senior subordinated convertible notes provide substantially all of Roper’s daily external financing requirements. The interest rate on the borrowings under the 2012 Facility is calculated based upon various recognized indices plus a margin as defined in the credit agreement. At December 31, 2012, Roper’s debt consisted of $1.9 billion of senior notes, $100 million of outstanding revolver borrowings and $12 million in senior subordinated convertible notes. In addition, the Company had $5.4 million of other debt in the form of capital leases, several smaller facilities that allow for borrowings or the issuance of letters of credit in foreign locations to support Roper’s non-U.S. businesses and $43 million of outstanding letters of credit at December 31, 2012. In December 2003, the Company issued through a public offering $230 million of 3.75% subordinated convertible notes due in 2034 at an original issue discount of 60.498% (the “Convertible Notes”). The Convertible Notes are subordinated in right of payment and collateral page 42 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report to all of Roper’s existing and future senior debt. Cash interest on the notes was paid semi-annually until January 15, 2009, after which interest is recognized at the effective rate of 3.75% and represents accrual of original issue discount, and only contingent cash interest may be paid. Contingent cash interest may be paid during any six month period if the average trading price of a note for a five trading day measurement period preceding the applicable six month period equals 120% or more of the sum of the issue price, accrued original issue discount and accrued cash interest, if any, for such note. The contingent cash interest payable per note in respect of any six month period will equal the annual rate of 0.25%. In accordance with this criterion, contingent interest has been paid for each six month period since January 15, 2009. Holders receive cash up to the value of the accreted principal amount of the notes converted and, at the Company’s option, any remainder of the conversion value may be paid in cash or shares of common stock. Holders may require Roper to purchase all or a portion of their notes on January 15, 2014 at a price of $475.66 per note, on January 15, 2019 at a price of $572.76 per note, on January 15, 2024 at a price of $689.68 per note, and on January 15, 2029 at a price of $830.47 per note, in each case plus accrued cash interest, if any, and accrued contingent cash interest, if any. The Company may only pay the purchase price of such notes in cash and not in common stock. In addition, if Roper experiences a change in control, each holder may require Roper to purchase for cash all or a portion of such holder’s notes at a price equal to the sum of the issue price plus accrued original issue discount for non-tax purposes, accrued cash interest, if any, and accrued contingent cash interest, if any, to the date of purchase. The Convertible Notes are classified as short-term debt as the notes became convertible on October 1, 2005 based upon the Company’s common stock trading above the trigger price for at least 20 trading days during the 30 consecutive trading-day periods ending on September 30, 2005. At December 31, 2012, the conversion price on the outstanding notes was $457.66. If converted at December 31, 2012, the value would have exceeded the $12 million principal amount of the notes by $23 million and could have resulted in the issuance of 211,962 shares of the Company’s common stock. The 2012 Facility contains affirmative and negative covenants which, among other things, limit Roper’s ability to incur new debt, prepay subordinated debt, make certain investments and acquisitions, sell assets and grant liens, make restricted payments (including the payment of dividends on our common stock) and capital expenditures, or change its line of business. Roper is also subject to financial covenants which require the Company to limit its consolidated total leverage ratio and to maintain a consolidated interest coverage ratio. The most restrictive covenant is the consolidated total leverage ratio which is limited to 3.5. The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants throughout the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. Future maturities of long-term debt during each of the next five years ending December 31 and thereafter were as follows (in thousands): 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 Thereafter (10) FAIR VALUE Roper’s debt at December 31, 2012 included $1.9 billion of fixed-rate senior notes with the following fair values (in millions): $500 million senior notes due 2013 $400 million senior notes due 2017 $500 million senior notes due 2019 $500 million senior notes due 2022 $ 519,015 1,404 975 533 500,195 1,000,000 $ 2,022,122 $518 399 605 509 The fair values of the senior notes are based on the trading prices of the notes, which the Company has determined to be Level 2 in the FASB fair value hierarchy. Short-term debt included $12 million of fixed-rate convertible notes which were at fair value due to the short- term nature of the notes. Most of Roper’s other borrowings at December 31, 2012 were at various interest rates that adjust relatively fre- quently under its credit facility. The fair value for each of these borrowings at December 31, 2012 was estimated to be the face value of these borrowings. In October 2009, Roper entered into interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional amount of $500 million. The swaps are designated as fair value hedges and effectively changed the Company’s $500 million senior notes due 2013 with a fixed interest rate of Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report page 43 6.625% to a variable-rate obligation at a weighted-average spread of 4.377% plus LIBOR. The Company has determined the swaps to be Level 2 in the FASB fair value hierarchy. To account for the fair value hedge, the swap is recorded at fair value in the balance sheet as an asset or liability, and the changes in fair values of both the interest rate swap and the hedged senior notes due 2013 are recorded as interest expense. The fair value of the swap was an asset balance of $5.8 million and $11.6 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The corresponding change in the fair value of the notes being hedged was an increase of $5.1 million and $11.7 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The impact on earnings was immaterial in the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010. (11) RETIREMENT AND OTHER BENEFIT PLANS Roper maintains eleven defined contribution retirement plans under the provisions of Section 401(k) of the IRC covering substantially all U.S. employees not subject to collective bargaining agreements. Roper partially matches employee contributions. Costs related to these plans were $16.4 million, $15.2 million and $14.0 million for 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Roper also maintains various defined benefit retirement plans covering employees of non-U.S. and certain U.S. subsidiaries and a plan that supplements certain employees for the contribution ceiling applicable to the Section 401(k) plans. The costs and accumulated benefit obligations associated with each of these plans were not material. (12) STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The Roper Industries, Inc. Amended and Restated 2006 Incentive Plan (“2006 Plan”) is a stock-based compensation plan used to grant incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, stock appreciation rights or equivalent instruments to the Company’s employees, officers, directors and consultants. The 2006 Plan replaced the Amended and Restated 2000 Incentive Plan (“2000 Plan”), and no additional grants will be made from the 2000 Plan. The number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2006 Plan is 14,000,000, plus the 17,000 remaining shares that were available to grant under the 2000 Plan at June 28, 2006, plus any shares underlying outstand- ing awards under the 2000 Plan that terminate or expire unexercised, or are cancelled, forfeited or lapse for any reason subsequent to June 28, 2006. At December 31, 2012, 6,941,775 shares were available to grant. Under the Roper Industries, Inc., Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”), all employees in the U.S. and Canada are eligible to designate up to 10% of eligible earnings to purchase Roper’s common stock at a 5% discount to the average closing price of its common stock at the beginning and end of a quarterly offering period. The common stock sold to the employees may be either treasury stock, stock purchased on the open market, or newly issued shares. Stock based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 was as follows (in millions): Stock based compensation Tax benefit recognized in net income Windfall tax benefit, net 2012 $40.8 14.3 30.8 2011 $31.7 11.1 12.7 2010 $25.2 8.8 7.3 Stock Options—Stock options are typically granted at prices not less than 100% of market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant. Stock options typically vest over a period of up to three to five years from the grant date and generally expire seven to ten years after the grant date. The Company recorded $14.8 million, $12.2 million, and $9.0 million of compensation expense relating to outstanding options during 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively, as a component of corporate and certain segment general and administrative expenses. The Company estimates the fair value of its option awards using the Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. The stock volatility for each grant is measured using the weighted-average of historical daily price changes of the Company’s common stock over the most recent period equal to the expected life of the grant. The expected term of options granted is derived from historical data to estimate option exercises and employee terminations, and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The weighted-average fair value of options granted in 2012, 2011 and 2010 were calculated using the following weighted-average assumptions: Weighted-average fair value ($) Risk-free interest rate (%) Average expected option life (years) Expected volatility (%) Expected dividend yield (%) page 44 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report 2012 30.25 0.77 5.24 36.51 0.58 2011 24.45 1.91 5.34 35.27 0.60 2010 17.00 2.32 5.38 34.55 0.72 The following table summarizes the Company’s activities with respect to its stock option plans for the year ended December 31, 2012: Outstanding at January 1, 2012 Granted Exercised Canceled Outstanding at December 31, 2012 Exercisable at December 31, 2012 Number of Shares 3,822,662 538,100 (1,389,069) (53,498) 2,918,195 1,616,022 Weighted-Average Exercise Price Weighted-Average Aggregate Per Share Contractual Term Intrinsic Value $50.44 95.27 40.46 70.01 63.15 $51.44 6.52 5.18 $141,029,378 $ 97,030,148 The following table summarizes information for stock options outstanding at December 31, 2012: Exercise Price $ 11.22–22.45 22.46–33.67 33.68–44.89 44.90–56.12 56.13–67.34 67.35–78.56 78.57–89.78 89.79–101.01 101.02–112.23 $ 11.22–112.23 Outstanding Options Exercisable Options Average Average Remaining Average Number Exercise Price Life (Years) Number Exercise Price 6,850 177,412 205,022 1,306,472 26,167 601,581 68,091 474,100 52,500 2,918,195 $ 21.49 23.57 41.86 53.55 63.96 72.85 84.22 94.25 104.85 $ 63.15 0.6 1.2 5.9 5.4 6.9 8.2 8.2 9.1 9.7 6.5 6,850 177,412 205,022 1,023,369 15,167 149,577 38,625 — — $21.49 23.57 41.86 53.78 64.45 73.18 84.21 — — 1,616,022 $51.44 At December 31, 2012, there was $19.1 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested options granted under the Company’s share-based payment plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.8 years. The total intrinsic value of options exercised in 2012, 2011 and 2010 was $86.0 million, $41.2 million and $27.5 million, respectively. Cash received from option exercises under all plans in 2012 and 2011 was $56.1 million and $28.2 million, respectively. Restricted Stock Grants—During 2012 and 2011, the Company granted 374,307 and 352,330 shares, respectively, of restricted stock to certain employee and director participants under the 2006 Plan. Restricted stock grants generally vest over a period of 1 to 3 years. The weighted-average fair value of the shares granted in 2012 was $95.78 per share. The Company recorded $25.9 million, $19.5 million and $16.2 million of compensation expense related to outstanding shares of restricted stock held by employees and directors during 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. A summary of the Company’s nonvested shares activity for 2012 is as follows: Nonvested at January 1, 2012 Granted Vested Forfeited Nonvested at December 31, 2012 Number of Shares 753,811 374,307 (551,051) (5,162) 571,905 Weighted-Average Fair Value $61.15 95.78 64.59 70.56 $80.96 At December 31, 2012, there was $31.6 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested awards granted to both employees and directors under the Company’s share-based payment plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.0 years. There were 551,051 and 264,848 shares that vested during 2012 and 2011, respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested shares of restricted stock grants is recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital in stockholder’s equity at December 31, 2012. Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report page 45 Employee Stock Purchase Plan—During 2012, 2011 and 2010, participants of the ESPP purchased 22,863, 27,756 and 29,439 shares, respectively, of Roper’s common stock for total consideration of $2.2 million, $2.1 million, and $1.7 million, respectively. All of these shares were purchased from Roper’s treasury shares. The Company had no compensation expense relating to the stock purchase plan during 2012, 2011 and 2010. (13) CONTINGENCIES Roper, in the ordinary course of business, is the subject of, or a party to, various pending or threatened legal actions, including product liability and employment practices. It is vigorously contesting all lawsuits that, in general, are based upon claims of the kind that have been customary over the past several years. After analyzing the Company’s contingent liabilities on a gross basis and, based upon past experience with resolution of its product liability and employment practices claims and the limits of the primary, excess, and umbrella liability insurance coverages that are available with respect to pending claims, management believes that adequate provision has been made to cover any potential liability not covered by insurance, and that the ultimate liability, if any, arising from these actions should not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows of Roper. Over recent years there has been a significant increase in certain U.S. states in asbestos-related litigation claims against numerous industrial companies. Roper or its subsidiaries have been named defendants in some such cases. No significant resources have been required by Roper to respond to these cases and Roper believes it has valid defenses to such claims and, if required, intends to defend them vigorously. Given the state of these claims it is not possible to determine the potential liability, if any.

(14) SEGMENT AND GEOGRAPHIC AREA INFORMATION Roper’s operations are reported in four segments around common customers, markets, sales channels, technologies and common cost opportunities. The segments are: Industrial Technology, Energy Systems and Controls, Medical & Scientific Imaging, and RF Technology. Products included within the Industrial Technology segment are water and fluid handling pumps, flow measurement and metering equipment, industrial valves and controls, and equipment and consumables for materials analysis and industrial leak testing. The Energy Systems and Controls segment’s products include control systems, equipment and consumables for fluid properties testing, vibration sensors and other non-destructive inspection and measurement products and services. The Medical and Scientific Imaging segment page 46 Roper Industries, Inc. 2012 Annual Report offers medical products and software, high performance digital imaging products and software and handheld and vehicle mounted com- puters. The RF Technology segment includes products and systems related to comprehensive toll and traffic systems and processing, security and access control, campus card systems, software-as-a-service applications in the freight matching and food industries and utility metering and remote monitoring applications. Roper’s management structure and internal reporting are aligned consistently with these four segments. There were no material transactions between Roper’s business segments during 2012, 2011 and 2010. Sales between geographic areas are primarily of finished products and are accounted for at prices intended to represent third-party prices. Operating profit by business segment and by geographic area is defined as net sales less operating costs and expenses. These costs and expenses do not include unallocated corporate administrative expenses. Items below income from operations on Roper’s statement of earnings are not allocated to business segments. Identifiable assets are those assets used primarily in the operations of each business segment or geographic area. Corporate assets are principally comprised of cash and cash equivalents, deferred tax assets, recoverable insurance claims, deferred compensation assets, unamortized deferred financing costs and property and equipment.

The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with various major financial institutions. Cash equivalents include investments in commercial paper of companies with high credit ratings, investments in money market securities and securities backed by the U.S. Government. At times such amounts may exceed the F.D.I.C. limits. The Company limits the amount of credit exposure with any one financial institution and believes that no significant concentration of credit risk exists with respect to cash investments. Trade receivables subject the Company to the potential for credit risk with customers. To reduce credit risk, the Company performs ongoing evaluations of its customers’ financial condition.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our evaluation under the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2012. Our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012 has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report which is included herein. Our management excluded acquisitions completed during 2012 from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. These acquisitions are wholly-owned subsidiaries whose excluded aggregate assets represent 2.1%, and whose aggre- gate total revenues represent 1.1%, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012. EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES As required by SEC rules, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Based on this evaluation, we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of December 31, 2012. Disclosure controls and procedures are our controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act are accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
