The effective tax rate declined to 15.3% in the third quarter of 2026 from 20.0% a year earlier, primarily because of a net tax benefit from a change in Roper’s outside basis in Indicor related to the Indicor Instrumentation transaction. For the first nine months, the rate declined to 14.0% from 20.9%, reflecting Indicor-related tax benefits and legal-entity restructuring.
