Business Acquisitions

Roper completed six business acquisitions in the nine months ended September 30, 2018, with an aggregate purchase price of $1,188.3, net of cash acquired. The results of operations of the acquired businesses are included in Roper’s condensed consolidated results of operations 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.

The results of the following acquisitions are reported in the RF Technology segment:

Roper completed three business acquisitions which provide software solutions that support the development of cost estimates in the construction industry: Quote Software, PlanSwift Software, and Smartbid.

The Company initially recorded $663.6 in goodwill and $660.7 of other identifiable intangibles in connection with the acquisitions; however, purchase price allocations are preliminary pending final tax-related adjustments. The amortizable intangible assets include customer relationships of $589.7 (19 year weighted average useful life) and technology of $44.1 (8 year weighted average useful life).

Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale

During the second quarter of 2018, Roper and Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc.
