Chip-
The biggest risk right now is that the ex-im bank will cease support for the Gazprom business due to to Gazprom's activities in Iran or Iraq. Roper has big business in semiconductors and in energy, both sectors have been hard hit recently. I think the stock is at a reasonable price if you can stomach a potential further drop due to ex-im problems.
