Analysts Stay Bullish on Roper Technologies (ROP) Despite Price Target Cuts Following Mixed Q4 Results

Roper Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:ROP) is one of the best blue-chip stocks with 52-week lows to buy right now. On January 29, Goldman Sachs reiterated a Buy rating but cut its price target on Roper Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:ROP) to $440 from $477.

The price target cut follows the fourth-quarter 2025 report, in which overall segment EBITDA came in below expectations. While the Technology Enabled segment EBITDA came 1% above consensus estimates, the Application Software and Network Software segments missed expectations by 1% and 2%, respectively.

Nevertheless, the research firm maintains a Buy stance, as all three segments posted mid-single-digit sales growth, with organic growth of about 4% in Application Software. The Network Software segment delivered 5% organic growth, with Technology Enabled Products increasing by 5%.

In addition, the company issued solid guidance with expected earnings per share of $21.30 to $21.55 for 2026. The company is also projecting organic growth of between 5% to 6%.

Similarly, Raymond James reiterated a Strong Buy rating on the stock and also cut the price target to $500 from $575. The price target cut is in response to the company’s touted yet imperfect fourth-quarter 2025 results.
