Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

We expect Roper to continue execute on the firm’s highly successful playbook of using excess cash to acquire cash rich businesses at reasonable valuations.

Bears

Roper’s acquisition heavy model presents significant execution risk, and the firm may struggle to find attractive acquisition targets.
