Report of Independent
Registered Public Accounting Firm
Plan Administrator and
Trustee
Roper Industries Inc.
Employees’ Retirement Savings 003 Plan
Duluth, Georgia
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Roper Industries Inc. Employees’ Retirement
Savings 003 Plan (Plan) as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for
benefits for the year ended December 31, 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for
benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended
December 31, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The
supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required
part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is
the responsibility of the Plan’s management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in
our audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Roper Industries, Inc.
Employees’ Retirement
Savings 003 Plan
Notes to Financial
Statements
| 1. |
Description
of the Plan The following description of the Roper Industries,
Inc. Employees’ Retirement Savings 003 Plan (the “Plan”)
provides only general information. Participants should refer to the
Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions. |
| |
a. |
General — The
Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all employees of Roper
Industries, Inc. (the “Company”), who are age eighteen or
older and have completed six months of service, as defined in the
Plan. Certain participants who become employees of the Company as a
result from mergers or acquisitions are given credit for their prior
service for purposes of determining eligibility and vesting. It is
subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), as amended. Effective January 2002,
the Plan was amended to incorporate certain provisions of the
Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 (EGTRRA). |
| |
During
2003, the plan transferred assets from the Roper Industries, Inc. Employees’Retirement
Savings 004 Plan into this Plan. The transferred amounts were based upon what division
under Roper Industries, Inc. the employee worked for. |
| |
b. |
Contributions — Each
year, participants may contribute up to 40 percent of their eligible
compensation in the form of (i) before-tax contributions (30%
maximum), (ii) after-tax contributions or (iii) a combination of
before-tax and after-tax contributions. Participants may also contribute
amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined
benefit or defined contribution plans. Participants direct the
investment of their contributions into various investment options
offered by the Plan. The Plan currently offers two common collective
trusts, thirteen mutual funds, and Roper Industries, Inc. common
stock as investment options for participants. The Company contributes
100 percent of the first 3 percent of base compensation that a
participant contributes to the Plan, and 50 percent of the next 3 percent of
base compensation that a participant contributes to the Plan. In no
case does the total Company matching contribution exceed 6 percent of
a participant’s compensation. In addition, the Company makes
profit-sharing contributions equal to 3 percent of each participant’s
compensation. Contributions are subject to certain limitations. |
| |
c. |
Participant
Accounts — Each participant’s account is credited with
the participant’s contributions, an allocation of the Company’s
matching and profit sharing contributions, Plan earnings, and is
charged with an allocation of administrative expenses. Allocations
are based on the participant’s account balance, as defined. The
benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be
provided from the participant’s vested account. |
| |
d. |
Vesting — Participants
are immediately vested in their contributions plus actual earnings
thereon. Vesting in the Company’s contribution portion of their
accounts is based on years of continuous service. Participants vest
over a five year period beginning with 20 percent after one year of
service and 20 percent each year thereafter, and are 100 percent
vested after five years. |
| |
e. |
Participant
Loans - Participants may borrow from their accounts a
minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50 percent
of their vested account balance. The loans are secured by the balance
in the participant’s account and bear interest at rates that
range from 5.0 percent to 10.5 percent, which are commensurate with
local prevailing rates as determined by the Plan administrator.
Principal and interest is paid ratably through payroll deductions. |
| |
f. |
Payment
of Benefits — On termination of service due to death,
disability, retirement or separation from service, subsequent to July
1, 2002, a participant will generally receive their benefits as a
lump-sum amount equal to the value of the participant’s vested
interest in his or her account. Participants can elect to receive
shares of the Company’s common stock if their total balance
exceeds $5,000. For distributions prior to July 1, 2002, participants
age 55 or older could have elected to receive their benefits in
installments. Withdrawals from the Plan may also be made upon
circumstances of financial hardship, in accordance with provisions
specified in the Plan. |
| |
g. |
Forfeitures — Forfeitures
by non-vested participants are used to reduce future Company
contributions. Forfeitures used amounted to approximately $136,982
and $142,652 for the years ended December 31, 2004, and 2003, respectively. |
| |
h. |
Administrative
Expenses - The majority of the administrative expenses
of the Plan are paid by the Company. |
| 2. |
Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies |
| |
Basis
of Accounting —The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the
accrual method of accounting. |
| |
Management
Estimates — The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates. |
| |
Investment
Valuation —The Plan’s investments are stated at fair market value based
upon quoted market prices. Shares of mutual funds and common collective trusts are valued
at the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year end. Participant loans are
valued at cost, which approximates fair value. |
| |
The
Plan’s investment in the Scudder Stable Value Fund is stated at contract value in
accordance with Statement of Position 94-4, “Reporting for Investment Contracts Held
by Health and Welfare Benefit Plans and Defined Contribution Pension Plans.” |
| |
Payment
of Benefits —Benefits are recorded when paid. |
| 3. |
Investments
—The fair market value of individual investments that represent at
least 5 percent or more of the Plan’s net assets available are as follows

Related
Party Transactions Certain Plan investments are shares of mutual funds or
common collective trusts managed by Scudder Trust Company. Scudder Trust
Company is the trustee as defined by the Plan, and therefore, these
transactions qualify as party-in-interest. |
| |
The
Plan offers Roper Industries, Inc. common stock as an investment option for participants.
Roper Industries, Inc. is the Plan sponsor as defined by the Plan, and therefore, these
transactions qualify as party-in-interest. |
| 5. |
Plan
Termination Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company
has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and
to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan
termination, participants would become 100 percent vested in their employer
contributions. |
| 6. |
Income
Tax Status The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the
Company by a letter dated June 19, 2001, that the Plan and related trust are
designed in accordance with applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code
(IRC). The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter.
However, the Plan administrator and the Plan’s tax counsel believe that
the Plan is designed and is currently being operated in compliance with the
applicable requirements of the IRC. |
