Roper’s management has made estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The results of operations for the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. You should read these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conjunction with Roper’s audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in its Annual Report.

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board FASB (“FASB”) establishes changes to accounting principles under GAAP in the form of accounting standards updates (“ASUs”) to the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs. Any recent ASUs not listed below were assessed and determined to be either not applicable or are expected to have an immaterial impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

The Company adopted ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (“ASC 326”), as of January 1, 2020 using the modified retrospective transition method. This ASU amends the impairment model to utilize an expected loss methodology in place of the incurred loss methodology for financial instruments, including trade receivables, and unbilled receivables. We recorded a noncash cumulative effect decrease to retained earnings of $1.7, net of income taxes, on our opening consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, 2020.

3. Weighted Average Shares Outstanding

Basic earnings per share were calculated using net earnings and the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the respective period. 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 period. Potentially dilutive common stock consisted of stock options based upon the trading price of Roper’s common stock. The effects of potential common stock were determined using the treasury stock method. Weighted average shares outstanding are shown below:


		Three months ended March 31,				Three months ended June 30,			Six months ended June 30,
		2020	2019		2020	2019	2020	2019
Basic shares outstanding	Basic shares outstanding	104.3	103.6	Basic shares outstanding	104.5	103.9	104.4	103.7
Effect of potential common stock:	Effect of potential common stock:			Effect of potential common stock:
Common stock awards	Common stock awards	1.0	1.1	Common stock awards	1.0	1.2	1.0	1.2
Diluted shares outstanding	Diluted shares outstanding	105.3	104.7	Diluted shares outstanding	105.5	105.1	105.4	104.9

Table of Contents

For the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, there were ~~1.318~~1.322 outstanding stock options, that were not included in the determination of diluted earnings per share because doing so would have been antidilutive, as compared to ~~1.381~~0.596 and 0.644 outstanding stock options that would have been antidilutive in the respective 2019 ~~period.~~periods.

4. Business Acquisitions

Roper completed 2 business acquisitions in the six months ended June 30, 2020, with an aggregate purchase price of $150.0, net of cash acquired and debt assumed. The results of operations of the acquired businesses are included in Roper’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements 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 Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations individually or in aggregate.

On June 9, 2020, Roper acquired substantially all of the assets of Freight Market Intelligence Consortium (“FMIC”), a leading provider of subscription-based freight transaction benchmarking and analysis service. FMIC is integrating into our DAT business and its results are reported in the Network Software & Systems reportable segment.

On June 15, 2020, Roper acquired substantially all of the assets of Team TSI Corporation (“Team TSI”), a leading provider of subscription-based data analytics serving long term health care facilities. Team TSI is integrating into our SHP business and its results are reported in the Network Software & Systems reportable segment.

The Company recorded $80.5 in goodwill and $70.2 of other identifiable intangibles in connection with the acquisitions; however, purchase price allocations remain preliminary. The amortizable intangible assets include customer relationships of $62.9 (15 year weighted average useful life) and technology of $7.3 (5 year weighted average useful life).

5. Stock Based Compensation

The Roper Technologies, Inc. 2016 Incentive Plan (“2016 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 Roper’s employees, officers, directors and consultants.

The following table provides information regarding the Company’s stock-based compensation expense:


		Three months ended March 31,							Three Months Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
		2020		2019			2020		2019		2020		2019

Tax effect recognized in net earnings	Tax effect recognized in net earnings	5.8		5.3		Tax effect recognized in net earnings	6.4		6.1		12.2		11.4

Stock Options - In the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, ~~0.725~~0.735 options were granted with a weighted average fair value of ~~$62.02~~$62.30 per option. During the same period in 2019, ~~0.686~~0.721 options were granted with a weighted average fair value of ~~$67.61~~$67.87 per option. All options were issued with an exercise price equal to the closing price of Roper’s common stock on the date of grant, as required by the 2016 Plan.

Roper records compensation expense for employee stock options based on the estimated fair value of the options on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. Historical data is used to estimate the expected price volatility, the expected dividend yield, the expected option life and the expected forfeiture rate. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for the estimated life of the option. The following weighted average assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of options granted during current and prior year periods using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model:


		Three months ended March 31,				Six months ended June 30,
		2020	2019		2020	2019
Risk-free interest rate (%)	Risk-free interest rate (%)	0.83	2.44	Risk-free interest rate (%)	0.83	2.42
Expected option life (years)	Expected option life (years)	5.64	5.41	Expected option life (years)	5.64	5.41
Expected volatility (%)	Expected volatility (%)	20.18	19.24	Expected volatility (%)	20.23	19.23

Employee Stock Purchase Plan - Roper’s stock purchase plan allows employees in the U.S. and Canada to designate up to 10% of eligible earnings to purchase Roper’s common stock at a 5% discount to the average closing price of the stock at the beginning and end of a quarterly offering period. Common stock sold to employees pursuant to the stock purchase plan may be either treasury stock, stock purchased on the open market, or newly issued shares.

We amended the Roper stock purchase plan effective July 1, 2020, which allows employees in the U.S. and Canada to designate up to 10% of eligible earnings to purchase Roper’s common stock at a 10% discount on the lower of the closing price of the stock on the first and last day of each quarterly offering period. Common stock sold to employees pursuant to the stock purchase plan may be either treasury stock, stock purchased on the open market, or newly issued shares.

During ~~both~~ the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and 2019, participants in the employee stock purchase plan purchased ~~0.008~~0.014 and 0.012 shares of Roper’s common stock for total consideration of ~~$2.8~~$4.5 and ~~$2.2,~~$3.6, respectively.

~~Table of Contents~~

An evaluation of the carrying value of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles is required to be performed on an annual basis and on 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.

In the first quarter of 2020, changes in facts and circumstances and general market declines from the coronavirus global pandemic (COVID-19) resulted in reduced expectations of near term future operating results. The Company considered these circumstances and the potential long-term impact on revenues and cash flows associated with its trade names and reporting units and determined that an indicator of possible impairment did not exist. While we have concluded that a triggering event did not occur during the first or second quarter ~~ended March 31,~~of 2020, a prolonged COVID-19 pandemic could further impact the expectations of future operating results and assumptions that are significant enough ~~that~~to require an interim impairment ~~review would be required. This is particularly true for~~review. In particular, the trade name associated with our lab software business, which had a fair value approximating its carrying value of $100.4 as of ~~October 1, 2019,~~ its most recent quantitative ~~analysis.~~analysis performed on October 1, 2019, could become subject to an interim review in future periods. The Company will perform the annual analysis during the fourth quarter of 2020.

7.8. Debt

On June 22, 2020, the Company completed a public offering of $600.0 aggregate principal amount of 2.00% senior unsecured notes due June 30, 2030 (“2030 Notes”). The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes are intended for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions.

The 2030 Notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 2.00% per year, and are payable semi-annually in arrears on June 30 and December 30 of each year, beginning December 30, 2020.

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.

The 2030 Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and rank equally in right of payment with all of its existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. The 2030 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 2030 Notes are not, and will not be,

Table of Contents

guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries and are effectively subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of our subsidiaries.

On April 23, 2020, the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement dated September 23, 2016 among the Company, the lenders party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the other agents and parties thereto, as previously amended December 2, 2016 (the “Credit Agreement”). The Amendment modified our gross debt to EBITDA covenant to allow for the benefit of our cash balance to be included in the calculation, changing the covenant to a net debt to EBITDA ratio.

The Amendment amends the definition of Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to be the ratio of (a)(i) Consolidated Total Debt (as defined in the Credit Agreement) minus (ii) the aggregate amount of Unrestricted Cash (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to (b) Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Amendment also adds a condition to each extension of credit through December 31, 2020, that after giving effect to any such borrowing and intended use of such borrowing, the aggregate amount of Unrestricted Cash may not be greater than $1,250.

8.9. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Roper’s debt at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 included ~~$5,300~~$5,900 of fixed-rate senior notes with the following fair values:


$600 3.000% senior notes due 2020			~~601~~606
$500 2.800% senior notes due 2021			~~501~~515
$500 3.125% senior notes due 2022			~~511~~524
$700 3.650% senior notes due 2023			~~721~~761
$500 2.350% senior notes due 2024			~~492~~532
$300 3.850% senior notes due 2025			~~323~~341
$700 3.800% senior notes due 2026			~~723~~801
$800 4.200% senior notes due 2028			~~860~~938
$700 2.950% senior notes due 2029			~~681~~764
$600 2.000% senior notes due 2030			601

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.

9.10. 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 that, in general, are based upon claims of the kind that have been customary over the past several years and which the Company is vigorously defending. 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 Roper’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Roper or its subsidiaries have been named defendants along with numerous industrial companies in asbestos-related litigation claims in certain U.S. states. No significant resources have been required by Roper to respond to these cases and Roper believes

~~Table of Contents~~

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.

⁽²⁾The non-current portion of deferred revenue is included in “Other liabilities” in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The change in our net contract assets/(liabilities) from December 31, 2019 to ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 was due primarily to the increase in unbilled receivables associated with timing of invoicing in our project-based businesses, most notably our Transcore business, and to a lesser extent the foreign exchange impact on our contract liability balances.

Most of the Company’s project-based contracts where the input method of revenue recognition is utilized are billed as work progresses in accordance with the contract terms and conditions, either at periodic intervals or upon achievement of certain milestones. Often this results in billing occurring after revenue recognition resulting in contract assets. The Company records contract liabilities when cash payments are received or due in advance of the Company’s performance relating primarily to Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) and post contract support (“PCS”) renewals. Revenue recognized during the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 that was included in the contract liability balance on December 31, 2019 was ~~$323.5.~~$211.5 and $535.0, respectively .

In order to determine revenues recognized in the period from contract liabilities, we allocate revenue to the individual deferred revenue or BIE balance outstanding at the beginning of the year until the revenue exceeds that balance.

Impairment losses recognized on our accounts receivable and unbilled receivables were immaterial in the three and six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion in conjunction with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (“Annual Report”) as filed on February 28, 2020 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report.

Information About Forward-Looking Statements

This report includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. 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 SEC or in connection with oral statements made to the press, potential investors or others.

Impact of COVID-19 on our Business

A novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) was first identified in December 2019, and subsequently declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization.

Our top priority during this pandemic is on the health and safety of our employees. The leadership teams at our businesses ~~were~~continue to be proactive in instituting safety measures that protect our employees, while maintaining operational capabilities required to meet their customers’ needs. All our businesses with manufacturing facilities have been deemed essential businesses and remain operational, supplying our customers with critical products. Additionally, all of our businesses have been operational in their work-from-home ~~environments.~~environments with limited disruption.

The spread of COVID-19 has caused us to modify our business practices, and we may take further actions as required by governmental and other regulatory authorities or as we determine to protect the safety or best interests of our employees, customers, suppliers and business partners. Some changes in business practices include, but are not limited to: restricting employee travel, developing social distancing plans for our employees, expanding the number of our associates who work from home, and cancelling physical participation in meetings, events and conferences.

While we did not experience a material impact on our results in the ~~first~~second quarter of 2020, COVID-19 ~~has created~~continues to present significant uncertainty in the future economic outlook of our businesses.

We operate a diverse portfolio of businesses, and, as a result, our businesses are navigating through a diverse set of challenges. Some of the impacts our businesses are experiencing from COVID-19 include, but are not limited to:

•Our businesses have been unable to visit current and potential customers in order to solicit new business and/or provide necessary on-site installation, implementation and training services, which has, ~~impacted~~in some cases, limited our ability to obtain new business and ~~in some cases,~~ effectively service existing business;

•Government restrictions on non-emergency hospital procedures ~~may decrease~~resulted in decreased (1) demand in our businesses that provide medical products used in non-emergency procedures and (2) revenue related to pharmaceutical utilization in post-acute healthcare settings;

1516

Table of Contents

•The unprecedented slowdown and/or shut down of global economy sectors and the related uncertain timeline to reopen and recover has created a weak demand environment for our businesses serving industrial and energy markets; and

•Some of our customers, including those in the medical field, ~~will likely~~may seek to delay payments to us while they are addressing the numerous challenges presented by COVID-19; to date, such delays ~~will impact~~have not impacted the timing of our cash flow and our financial ~~performance.~~performance in a significant manner.

While our expectations for our operating results in 2020 have been lowered to reflect the new economic environment, our businesses are taking pragmatic cost countermeasures to manage profitability while continuing strategic investments for long term growth.

Our financial position remains strong with ~~$1,000~~$1,871 of cash on-hand as of ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 and an undrawn $2,500 revolving line of credit. On June 22, 2020, we issued and sold $600 aggregate principal amount of our 2.000% Senior Notes due 2030. These funds have been, and will be, used for general corporate purposes which may include repaying debt or financing acquisitions. Additionally, we expect our operating cash flow generation capability to continue due to our high levels of recurring revenue, high profitability, low capital expenditure requirements, and low working capital requirements. We believe that existing cash balances, together with funds generated from operations and amounts available under our credit facility, will be sufficient to finance our operations and meet our foreseeable cash requirements, including quarterly cash dividends and certain strategic acquisitions through at least the next twelve months.

Six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to six months ended June 30, 2019

Net revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased by 1.5% as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was the result of organic growth of 0.4%, and a net acquisitions/divestiture contribution of 1.6%, partially offset by a negative foreign exchange impact of 0.4%.

In our Application Software segment, revenues were $803.5 in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $771.8 in the six months ended June 30, 2019, an increase of 4%.

Gross margin decreased to 67.2% in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 69.0% in the six months ended June 30, 2019 due primarily to revenue mix. SG&A expenses increased as a percentage of revenues at 35.9% in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 33.3% in the six months ended June 30, 2019 due primarily to higher amortization of acquired intangibles from the acquisitions completed in 2019. As a result, operating margin was 31.3% in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 35.7% in the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Our Measurement and Analytical segment revenues decreased by 10% to $729.1 in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $810.2 in the six months ended June 30, 2019. Organic revenues increased 1%, more than offset by a decrease in revenue of 11% attributable to the disposal of the Imaging and Gatan businesses as discussed above, and a negative foreign exchange impact of 1%. The growth in organic revenues was due to our medical products businesses, partially offset by our water meter technology and industrial business declines. Gross margin increased to 59.8% in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 58.2% in the six months ended June 30, 2019. SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 27.3% in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 27.5% in the six months ended June 30, 2019 due primarily to revenue mix. The resulting operating margin was 32.5% in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 30.7% in the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Our Process Technologies segment revenues decreased by 19% to $262.9 in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $323.0 in the six months ended June 30, 2019. Organic revenues decreased by 18%, and the negative foreign exchange impact was 1%. The decrease in organic revenues was due to due broad-based revenue declines across the segment led by lower demand at our businesses serving upstream oil and gas end markets. Gross margin decreased to 54.1% in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 56.2% in the six months ended June 30, 2019 due primarily to lower revenues. SG&A expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 31.2% in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 22.9% in the six months ended June 30, 2019 due primarily to $13.6 restructuring charge for structural cost reduction actions taken at certain of our businesses and lower operating leverage on organic revenue declines. As a result, operating margin was 22.9% in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to 33.2% in the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Corporate expenses increased to $94.7, or 3.6% of revenues, in the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $85.2, or 3.3% of revenues, in the six months ended June 30, 2019. The dollar increase was due primarily to higher professional services expenses, stock compensation expenses and acquisition-related expenses.

Table of Contents

Net interest expense was $92.9 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to $88.8 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 due to higher weighted average debt balances, partially offset by lower weighted average interest rates.

Other expense, net, of $1.2 and $4.1 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, was composed primarily of foreign exchange losses at our non-U.S. based subsidiaries.

Gain on disposal of business, of $119.6 in the first quarter of 2019 is the pretax gain recognized on the sale of the Imaging businesses, which closed February 5, 2019.

Income taxes as a percent of pretax earnings ~~were 21.1%~~increased to 21.9% in the ~~first quarter of~~six months ended June 30, 2020 as compared to ~~11.8%~~16.5% in the ~~first quarter of~~six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase is due primarily to the recognition of a discrete tax benefit of ~~$43.0 in~~$41.0 during the ~~first quarter of 2019, in connection with a foreign restructuring plan allowing the future realization of net operating losses.~~

~~Backlog is equal to our remaining performance obligations expected to be recognized within the next 12~~six months ~~as discussed in Note 11 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Backlog increased 22% to $2,070.3 at March 31, 2020~~

The interest rate on borrowings under our $2,500.0 unsecured credit facility is calculated based upon various recognized indices plus a margin as defined in the credit facility. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, there were no outstanding borrowings under our unsecured credit facility. At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, we had ~~$7.2~~$7.0 of other debt in the form of short term borrowings, finance leases and several smaller facilities that allow for borrowings in various foreign locations to support our non-U.S. businesses and ~~$68.6~~$69.3 of outstanding letters of credit.

Cash at our foreign subsidiaries at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 ~~increased~~decreased to ~~$336~~$196 as compared to $292 at December 31, 2019 due primarily ~~due~~ to the repatriation of historical foreign earnings, partially offset by the cash generated at our foreign subsidiaries during the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020. We intend to repatriate substantially all historical and future unremitted foreign earnings.

We expect existing cash and cash equivalents, cash generated by our operations and availability under our unsecured credit facility, as well as our expected ability to access the capital markets, will be sufficient to fund operating requirements for the foreseeable future.

We were in compliance with all debt covenants related to our unsecured credit facility throughout the ~~three~~six months ended ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020.

Net working capital (total current assets, excluding cash, less total current liabilities, excluding debt) was negative ~~$490.1~~$587.6 at ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020 as compared to negative $505.4 at December 31, 2019, reflecting a ~~increase~~decrease in working capital due primarily to an increase in income taxes payable and a decrease in ~~accrued compensation resulting from the timing of payments and~~accounts receivable, partially offset by an increase in unbilled receivables ~~partially offset by~~and a decrease in ~~accounts receivable.~~accrued compensation.

There have been no material changes to our contractual obligations from those disclosed in our Annual Report other than the Amendment.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

At ~~March 31,~~June 30, 2020, 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.

Outlook

Current geopolitical and economic uncertainties could adversely affect our business prospects. The COVID-19 pandemic has had, and will continue to have, an adverse impact on our business. A significant terrorist attack, other global conflict, or public health crisis could cause changes in world economies that would adversely affect us. It is impossible to isolate each of these potential factor’s future effects on current economic ~~conditions.~~conditions or any of our businesses. It is also impossible to predict with any reasonable degree of certainty what or when any additional events may occur that also would similarly disrupt the economy and have an adverse impact on our businesses.

We maintain an active acquisition program; however, 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 business, financial condition and results of operations. Such acquisitions may be financed by the use of existing credit lines, future cash flows from operations, future divestitures, the proceeds from the issuance of new debt or equity securities or any combination of these ~~methods.~~methods, the terms and availability of which will be subject to market and economic conditions generally.

We anticipate that our 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 2020 (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.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Information pertaining to legal proceedings can be found in Note 910 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and is incorporated by reference herein.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

~~For information regarding~~The following should be read in conjunction with, and supplements and amends, the factors that ~~could~~may affect ~~our~~the Company’s business ~~financial condition and results of~~or operations ~~see the risk factors discussion~~described under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A, of ~~our~~the Company’s Annual Report on Form ~~10-K. See also “Information About Forward-Looking Statements” included~~10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Other than as described in ~~Part I,~~this Item 21A and Item 1A of ~~this~~the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form ~~10-Q. We are providing~~10-Q for the ~~following information regarding changes that have occurred to the previously disclosed risk factors in our Form 10-K. Except for such additional information, we believe~~quarter ended March 31, 2020, there have been no other material changes to our risk factors from the risk factors previously disclosed in ~~our Form 10-K.~~the 2019 Annual Report.

The extent to which the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak and measures taken in response thereto impact our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict.

The novel strain of the coronavirus identified in China in late 2019 has spread across the globe and has resulted in governmental and other regulatory authorities implementing numerous measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter in place orders, and shutdowns. These measures have impacted and may further impact our workforce and operations, as well as the work force, operations and financial prospects of our customers, suppliers and business partners. There is considerable uncertainty regarding such measures and potential future measures, such as restrictions on our access to our manufacturing facilities or on our support operations or workforce, or similar limitations for our customers, suppliers and business partners. The spread of COVID-19 has caused us to modify our business practices (including restricting employee travel, developing social distancing plans for our employees, expanding the number of our associates who work from home, and cancelling physical participation in meetings, events and conferences), and we may take further actions as may be required by governmental and other regulatory authorities or as we determine to protect the safety or best interests of our employees, customers, suppliers and business partners.

Some of the impacts our businesses are experiencing from COVID-19 include, but are not limited to:

•Some of our customers, including those in the medical field, ~~will likely~~may seek to delay payments to us while they are addressing the numerous challenges presented by COVID-19; such delays ~~will impact~~have not impacted the timing of our cash flow and our financial ~~performance.~~performance in a significant manner.

The extent to which the coronavirus outbreak impacts our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. Even after the COVID-19 outbreak has subsided, we may continue to experience materially adverse impacts to our business as a result of the virus’s global economic impact, including the availability of credit, adverse impacts on our liquidity and any recession that has occurred or may occur in the future.

There are no comparable recent events that provide guidance as to the effect of the spread of COVID-19 as a global pandemic may have on our customers, suppliers, vendors and other business partners, and, as a result, the ultimate impact of the outbreak is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do not yet know the full extent of the impacts on our business, our operations or the global economic and political environment as a whole. However, the effects could have a material impact on our results of operations and heighten many of our known risks described in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2019.~~2019 and in the Form 10-Q. In addition, the rapidly changing situation could give rise to ~~additional risks or adverse~~

2325

Table of Contents

additional risks or adverse impacts of which we are not presently aware, such as the ability to complete acquisitions, the ability to obtain credit through the capital markets and/or through our revolving credit facility.

We rely on information and technology for many of our business operations which could fail or be subject to cybersecurity threats and incidents and cause disruption to our business operations.

Our business operations are dependent upon information technology networks and systems to securely transmit, process and store electronic information and to communicate among our locations around the world and with clients and vendors. A shutdown of, or inability to access, one or more of our facilities, a power outage or a failure of one or more of our information technology, telecommunications or other systems could significantly impair our ability to perform such functions on a timely basis. Computer viruses, cyber-attacks, other external hazards and human error could result in the misappropriation of assets or sensitive information, corruption of data or operational disruption.

Global cybersecurity threats and incidents can range from uncoordinated individual attempts to gain unauthorized access to IT systems to sophisticated and targeted measures known as advanced persistent threats, directed at the Company, its businesses, its customers and/or its third party service providers, including cloud providers. These may include such things as unauthorized access, phishing attacks, account takeovers, denial of service, computer viruses, introduction of malware or ransomware and other disruptive problems caused by hackers. Moreover, as more of our employees work remotely due to the COVID 19 pandemic or otherwise, our networks and systems may be more susceptible to breach or sabotage due to employee misuse or error which may increase the risk of access to our systems by unauthorized parties.

Our customers are increasingly requiring cybersecurity protections and mandating cybersecurity standards in our products and services, and we may incur additional costs to comply with such demands. While we have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, these types of threats and incidents, none of them to date have been material to the Company. We seek to deploy measures to deter, prevent, detect, respond to and mitigate these threats, including identity and access controls, data protection, vulnerability assessments, product software designs which we believe are less susceptible to cyber-attacks, continuous monitoring of our IT networks and systems and maintenance of backup and protective systems. Despite these efforts, we can make no assurance that we will be able to detect, prevent, timely and adequately address, or mitigate the negative effects of cyberattacks or other security compromises, and such cybersecurity incidents, depending on their nature and scope, could potentially result in the misappropriation, destruction, corruption or unavailability of critical data and confidential or proprietary information (our own or that of third parties) and the disruption of business operations. The potential consequences of a material cybersecurity incident include financial loss, reputational damage, litigation with third parties, theft of intellectual property, fines, diminution in the value of our investment in research and development, and increased cybersecurity protection and remediation costs due to the increasing sophistication and proliferation of threats, which in turn could adversely affect our competitiveness and results of operations.Any imposition of liability, particularly liability that is not covered by insurance or is in excess of insurance coverage, could materially harm our operating results and financial condition.

Regulation of privacy and data security may adversely affect sales of our products and services and result in increased compliance costs.

There has been, and we believe that there will continue to be, increased regulation with respect to the collection, use and handling of personal, financial and other information as regulatory authorities in the United States and around the world have recently passed or are currently considering a number of legislative and regulatory proposals concerning data protection, privacy and data security. This includes the California Consumer Privacy Act, or CCPA, which came into effect in January 2020, and the GDPR, which is a European Union-wide legal framework to govern data collection, use and sharing and related consumer privacy rights that became effective in May 2018. The CCPA provides for civil penalties for violations, as well as a private right of action for data breaches that may increase data breach litigation. The GDPR provides significant penalties for non-compliance (up to 4% of global revenue). European data protection authorities have already imposed fines for GDPR violations up to, in some cases, hundreds of millions of Euros. Many states in the United States are also considering their own privacy laws that, in the absence of a preemptive Federal privacy law, could impose burdensome and conflicting requirements. The interpretation and application of consumer and data protection laws and industry standards in the United States, Europe and elsewhere can be uncertain and currently is in flux. Cloud-based solutions may be subject to further regulation, including data localization requirements and other restrictions concerning international transfer of data, the operational and cost impact of which cannot be fully known at this time. In addition to the possibility of fines, application of these existing laws in a manner inconsistent with our data and privacy practices could result in an order requiring that we change our data and privacy practices, which could have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations. Complying with these various laws could cause us to incur substantial costs or require us to change our business practices in a manner adverse to our business. Also, any new law or regulation, or interpretation of existing law or regulation, imposing greater fees or taxes or restriction on the collection, use or transfer of information or data internationally or over the Web, could result in a decline in the use and adversely affect sales of our products and services and our results of operations. Finally, as we increasingly become a provider of technology solutions, our customers and regulators will expect that we can demonstrate compliance with current data privacy and security regulations as well as our privacy policies and the information we make available to our customers and the public about our data handling practices, and our inability to do so may adversely impact sales of our solutions and services to certain customers, particularly customers in highly-regulated industries, such as the healthcare industry, and could result in regulatory actions, fines, legal proceedings and negatively impact our brand, reputation and our business.
