Jul 27, 2026John Stipancich sold 2K shares ($758K) with no plan disclosed. That is 5.3% of the total stake held that day. 2K shares came in from vesting or option exercises the same day, so the holding rose by 0 net.

"% of total stake" is the shares in this event against all the vested shares the person held that day, across every share class and holding entity, after that day's vesting. "n/a" means the person's holdings don't reconcile, or the row is a purchase. "Holdings record incomplete" means more shares were sold than the filings show the person held that day, so a percentage would be wrong.

Is this normal? In line with the past 5 years. 4 insiders sold; the average is 5 a year. Year by year

What stands out

Richard Wallman sold 39% of vested holdings: 6.4K shares for $2.3M, none under a disclosed plan.Largest sale, Jul 24, 2026
Three insiders bought shares: Laurence Hunn (10K shares, $4.5M), Amy Brinkley (1.2K shares, $541K) and Thomas Joyce Jr. (1.4K shares, $502K). These are the first by current officers or directors since Feb 14, 2023.Laurence Hunn: purchase, Nov 12, 2025 · Amy Brinkley: purchase, Nov 12, 2025 · Thomas Joyce Jr.: purchase, Feb 6, 2026
Jason Conley sold $2.7M of stock with no disclosed trading plan. The filings don't state a reason.Largest such sale, Dec 1, 2025

Percentages cover 12 of 14 officers and directors. Left out: Jason Conley (most holdings were last confirmed in 2023); Abhijit Dubey (held no vested shares at the start). Disclosed company stock is not an insider's whole wealth.

Common questions

Is the Roper Technologies CEO selling stock?

Yes. Laurence Hunn sold 30K shares ($13.3M, 17% of starting holdings) in the past 12 months, all of it under a trading plan disclosed in the filings.

Why are Roper Technologies insiders selling?

Filings rarely give a reason, and we don't guess at one. What they show is how the sales were made: 70% of sales by value ran under 10b5-1 trading plans disclosed in the filings and 30% had no disclosed plan. A trading plan schedules sales in advance.

Are any Roper Technologies insiders buying?

Yes. 3 officers or directors reported 4 purchases in the past 12 months (Form 4 code P, which includes private purchases).

How much of their stake did Roper Technologies insiders sell?

About 11% overall. As a group they still hold 99% of their starting shares. That covers the 12 months to Oct 8, 2026 and counts vested shares reported on SEC Forms 3, 4 and 5, which is not an insider's whole wealth.

14 of 14 insiders fully reconciled: starting holdings plus reported transactions match ending holdings (13 exactly, 1 with a minor or footnoted difference). Percentages cover 12 of 14 officers and directors. Left out: Jason Conley (most holdings were last confirmed in 2023); Abhijit Dubey (held no vested shares at the start). "Still held" compares ending with starting vested shares; a plus sign means the holding grew.

What explains the selling$19.1M of sales by plan status, purpose, seller and month

Officer and director open-market sales: $19.1M across 44,434 shares. Plan status and stated purpose are separate questions, and a sale can have both.

By plan status

The lighter segment is sales with no plan disclosed in the filing ($5.8M), including tax-related sales outside a plan.

No plan disclosed · $5.8M

Sales with no 10b5-1 plan and no tax reference in the filing. $2.7M of it is Jason Conley. No plan disclosed is a statement about the filing, not about why the sale happened. Largest such sale: Jason Conley, Dec 1, 2025

Taxes

19,227 shares ($6.8M) were withheld by the company for taxes, which isn't a market sale.

Purchases · 3 buyers (4 trades)

3 officers and directors bought shares in this period, in 4 trades(Form 4 code P). Across all their filings on record there are 12 purchase trades.

Open-market sales (Form 4 code S) by people who were officers or directors, in split-adjusted shares. Earlier years include people who have since left. A sale that an outside holder also reports (a family trust, a fund) is counted with outside holders in every year. Shares, not dollars, are compared, so a change in the stock price doesn't look like a change in selling. Years the filings don't fully cover are shown but left out of the average.

Known gaps and uncertaintyEvery officer and director reconciles

Every officer and director reconciles for this period.

Robert Johnson: minor difference of 200 shares. Unexplained small increases, consistent with stock unit vesting or reinvested dividends.

Inferred rename: "401(k)" is treated as the same holder as "401(k) Plan", because the old name was never reported again and the new one opened with the same balance (2,135 shares). Old name, new name

Inferred typo: the share class "Comnmon Stock" is treated as the same class as "Common Stock" on 1 holding line, because the two spellings are nearly identical and each balance carried over exactly. Example (Derrick Key, 73,456 shares): old title, new title

Inferred typo: the share class "CommonStock" is treated as the same class as "Common Stock" on 3 holding lines, because the two spellings are nearly identical and each balance carried over exactly. Example (Derrick Key, 39,552 shares): old title, new title

Inferred typo: the share class "Comon Stock" is treated as the same class as "Common Stock" on 1 holding line, because the two spellings are nearly identical and each balance carried over exactly. Example (Derrick Key, 600 shares): old title, new title

External context: we only cite outside events when a documented connection exists. None is shown for this period.

Sources and methodology1,017 filings from SEC EDGAR, and how we read them

All 1,017 Forms 3, 4 and 5 filed for Roper Technologies (SEC CIK 882835) from Jun 4, 2003 to Oct 5, 2026, retrieved from SEC EDGAR on Oct 8, 2026. Prices are the ones reported in each filing, often weighted averages.

Probable 2-for-1 stock split on or before Aug 26, 2005 (split date stated in a footnote). Splits aren't reported as transactions; 22 holding lines changed by exactly this ratio, so earlier share counts are restated.

Holdings. Each holding line (a share class plus an owner, such as a trust or LLC) carries its last reported balance forward. Entities first reported during the period start at zero, so transfers between an insider's own trusts don't count as selling. Lines not reported for three years or more are listed separately and left out of totals.

Sales. A sale counts as under a 10b5-1 plan if its footnote cites one or the filing's Rule 10b5-1 box is checked, and as tax-related if its footnote cites tax obligations or sell-to-cover. Shares withheld by the company for taxes are listed separately. Sales with neither attribute are labeled "no plan disclosed".
