Stipancich John K 4

What Happened

• John K. Stipancich, Executive Vice President, General Counsel & Secretary of Roper Technologies (ROP), was granted 24,494 shares as an award (derivative) and, in connection with that transaction, 3,198 shares were disposed on March 10, 2026 to satisfy tax withholding obligations.
• The disposed shares were transacted at $353.87 per share, generating proceeds of $1,131,676. The award is reported at $0.00 per share (typical for restricted stock units or similar equity awards).

Key Details

• Transaction dates: March 10, 2026 (award and withholding sale).
• Award: 24,494 shares (code A — grant/award/other acquisition; derivative).
• Withholding/disposition: 3,198 shares @ $353.87 = $1,131,676 (code F — payment of exercise price or tax liability).
• Shares owned after transaction: Not specified in the provided filing.
• Filing date: March 12, 2026 (the Form 4 was filed two days after the transaction date, which appears to be timely).
• Notes: Code F indicates the disposition was made to cover tax obligations tied to the award (common for RSU vesting); no 10b5-1 plan or other special instructions disclosed in the filing.

Context

• This pattern (award issuance plus a smaller number of shares surrendered/sold to cover taxes) is a routine administrative step following equity awards and does not by itself indicate a change in insider sentiment.
• The award was reported as a derivative grant (likely RSUs or similar); the sale of 3,198 shares was to satisfy tax withholding rather than an independent open-market investment decision.
