Roper Technologies (ROP - Free Report) recently acquired cloud-based performance management and data solutions provider, Syntellis Performance Solutions, for $1.25 billion. The transaction value includes a $135 million tax benefit. ROP funded the transaction using cash on hand and revolving credit facility.
The acquired entity will be integrated into Roper’s Strata Decision Technology business, which provides healthcare financial planning, decision support, and performance management solutions.
Together the two companies will improve innovation and deliver greater value to their customer base. Syntellis is expected to contribute approximately $185 million and $85 million to Roper’s revenues and EBITDA in 2024, including planned cost synergies.
The combined businesses of Strata and Syntellis will be led by the former’s CEO, John Martino, under the name Strata Decision Technology.
Roper’s efforts to expand operations through successive acquisitions hold promise. In October 2022, the company acquired Frontline Education for $3.7 billion.

The acquisition is expected to contribute approximately $370 million to Roper’s revenues and $175 million to its EBITDA in 2023.
In January 2022, ROP acquired American LegalNet, which strengthened its Aderant business to provide comprehensive software solutions to its customers in the legal industry. Acquisitions boosted sales by 8% in the second quarter of 2023.
