    我們的第一個開始交付了另一個堅實的季度業績,並預計有機收入的連續成長將加速。

  • Heading into Q4, we completed the transaction campus acquisition, a very attractive business at a very attractive net purchase price for raising our full-year guidance to the high end of our range before we continue to be very well-positioned relative executing on our capital deployment strategy.

    進入第四季度,我們完成了交易園區收購,這是一項非常有吸引力的業務,淨購買價格非常有吸引力,可以將我們的全年指導提高到範圍的高端,然後我們繼續相對執行我們的資本處於非常有利的位置部署策略。

  • Now digging a bit deeper into these four key takeaways.

    現在更深入地研究這四個關鍵要點。

  • We grew total revenue by 13%, organic revenue by 4% and EBITDA by 10%.

    我們的總收入成長了 13%,有機收入成長了 4%,EBITDA 成長了 10%。

  • Importantly, we grew free cash flow by 15% in the quarter and by 20% on a TTM basis operationally and in order to perform slightly better than our expectations.

    重要的是,我們本季的自由現金流成長了 15%,營運上的自由現金流成長了 20%,以便表現略好於我們的預期。

  • As a result, last quarter's mechanical leader production challenges, and also importantly, we're encouraged to see strong organic enterprise software bookings momentum continued this quarter, growing in the double digits area, up from last quarter's high single digits.

    因此,上季度的機械領先生產面臨挑戰,重要的是,我們很高興看到本季度繼續保持強勁的有機企業軟體預訂勢頭,以兩位數的速度增長,高於上季度的高個位數。

  • Bookings growth.

    預訂量增長。

  • Also in the quarter, we completed the acquisition of transact campus.

    同樣在本季度,我們完成了 transact Campus 的收購。

  • Our software businesses, being combined with transaction and integration activities are well underway.

    此外,加上最近收購的交易園區,我們將總收入成長預期提高至 13%。

  • Finally, we're maintaining our approximate 6% organic revenue outlook for the year.

    最後,我們維持今年約 6% 的有機收入預期。

  • If we step back a bit, we recognize we just posted back-to-back 4% organic growth quarters, although not unexpected without question unsatisfied.

    如果我們退一步,我們會認識到我們剛剛連續兩個季度實現了 4% 的有機增長,儘管這並不令人意外,但毫無疑問是不滿意的。

  • That said, we do see quarterly organic growth momentum improving can expect our Q4 organic growth to sequentially improve, given back-to-back quarters of strong enterprise bookings growth, stabilizing freight market conditions, albeit at the bottom by resource net to an operational issue in Indiana returning to growth in Q4.

    也就是說,我們確實看到季度有機成長勢頭有所改善,鑑於企業預訂連續幾個季度強勁增長,貨運市場狀況穩定,預計我們第四季度的有機增長將連續改善,儘管由於運營問題,資源淨值處於底部印第安納州第四季度恢復成長。

  • So with this mostly behind us, we're confident we're seeing a reacceleration of our growth.

    因此,隨著這一切基本上過去,我們有信心看到我們的成長重新加速。

  • And finally, we continue to be very active on the M&A market environment that continues to improve and one where we have a very large pipeline of highly attractive opportunities.

    最後,我們持續積極參與持續改善的併購市場環境,我們擁有大量極具吸引力的機會。

  • And I don't think I've seen a cost synergy estimate coming out of a transaction and a long time from this is this more of an opportunistic time of the acquisition?

    我認為我沒有看到交易中產生的成本協同效應估計,而且很長一段時間以來這是否更像是收購的機會主義時期?

  • And if at all, also the other businesses that are a bit faster, growing and maturing leaders have been sort of specifics that and if you look at our acquisitions we've done since we've done Stratus and tell us or tell us and combine it with restaurant on, though, is the architect is very similar to transact, has it.

    如果有的話,其他速度更快、成長和成熟的領先企業也有一些具體情況,如果你看看我們自從完成 Stratus 以來所做的收購,告訴我們或告訴我們並合併它與餐廳,雖然,是建築師非常相似,以交易,有它。

  • I would say on the bolt-on was the driving the principle driving the reason for that.

    我想說的是,螺栓固定式驅動原理是驅動其原因的原因。

  • It was to buy businesses or if you have a high right to win, the choices are adjacencies that are close to ours that we see increases in labor there for accelerate organic growth looks to bolt-on turns, organic.

    是購買企業,或者如果你有很高的獲勝權,那麼選擇是與我們接近的鄰近地區,我們看到那裡的勞動力增加,以加速有機增長,看起來是有機的。

  • So yes, it's very much part of our strategy in Canada.

    所以,是的,這是我們在加拿大策略的重要組成部分。

  • We've talked about the Czech Republic team agenda as we got folks that are focused on partnering with our businesses, doing a lot for the development work in the marketplace.

    所以我的意思是,自從幾年前收購 Frontline 以來,第三季現在是我們最強勁的現金季度。

  • And now with the addition of transact, it's definitely our strongest quarter transaction helped a little bit bigger, couple of points of growth in the quarter.

    現在,隨著交易的增加,這絕對是我們最強勁的季度交易,幫助該季度實現了更大的幾個百分點的成長。

  • It's or as I mentioned, seasonally strong for them.

    正如我所提到的,這對他們來說季節性很強。

  • But aside from that, I've just said tremendous execution through the renewal seasons, which is Q3 and Q4 for us.

    但除此之外,我剛剛說過在續約季節(對我們來說是第三季和第四季)的巨大執行力。

  • So Q4 is expected to be strong as well.

    因此,預計第四季也將表現強勁。

  • And I would just say, you know, DSO improved by almost across the board for a number of our businesses.

    我只想說,您知道,我們的許多業務的 DSO 幾乎全面改善。

  • And so just good old-fashioned execution, I think is what drove that drove the outsized growth relative to depths.

    因此,我認為正是良好的老式執行力推動了相對於深度的超額成長。

    我認為這是現代歷史上最令人期待的經濟放緩,這種心理在一定程度上減緩了企業企業 Leslye 跨軟體的活動,我們根據過去幾個季度的企業軟體預訂活動持謹慎樂觀的態度季度處於高個位數成長領域本季到兩位數成長的管道看起來非常強勁

    隨著噸位的下降。

  • So as a number of carriers that are participants that network, which could put pressure on that, we've just seen this slide and 20 to 25 weeks of negative brokered loans compared to prior year, that actually in the last handful of weeks is more normalized to last year.

    因此,作為網路參與者的許多運營商,這可能會對此施加壓力,我們剛剛看到了這種下滑以及與去年相比持續 20 至 25 週的負經紀貸款,實際上在過去幾周里更多正常化至去年。

    我們可以在一段時間內繼續橫向移動,也許就像你現在看到的那樣,到 2024 年,有多少代工和貨運匹配業務會下降?

  • So I'll take the first part and so on the ACA load Lynch on track with intangible that we've changed our word choice this call will be stabilizing.

    所以我將採取第一部分,等等 ACA 加載林奇無形的軌道,我們已經改變了我們的用詞選擇,這次電話將穩定。

  • So it is very much a stabilized market.

    所以這是一個非常穩定的市場。

  • We anticipate for until we see anything either stable or going to be of dispositions from a tonnage or load volumes that are doing over and over the roads and to the network.

    我們預計,直到我們看到道路上和網路上的噸位或負載量穩定或即將發生變化為止。

  • That said, JT. does have a from a pathway to plan a high high competence plan to return to some modest levels of growth next year with no assumed improvement in carrier network participation of their packaging priced.

    也就是說,JT.確實有一個途徑來規劃一個高水平的計劃,以在明年恢復到一定程度的增長,而假設運營商網絡參與其包裝價格的情況沒有改善。

  • And so we'll have, like I said, some modest growth of GATTEX here that we have a further a high degree of confidence heading into our AOP sessions that that would occur.

    因此,正如我所說,我們在這裡的 GATTEX 將會有一些適度的成長,我們對進入 AOP 會議時會發生的情況更有信心。

  • Next wells, they'll bounce rate.

    下一口井,他們會跳出率。

  • It's just the waiting for the post-production that unemployment to return to its historical levels.

    只是等待後期生產,失業率才會恢復到歷史水準。

  • I think about 15% below pre-pandemic pre-strike, I should say employment levels of post the production that will just need the content is being produced is a set of metrics really through the pipelines, and that will be sometime in 2025.

    我認為比大流行前罷工前低約 15%,我應該說,只需要製作內容的後期製作的就業水平是一組真正通過管道的指標,這將在 2025 年的某個時候實現。

  • So it's definitely taken a few quarters longer than we anticipated earlier this year.

    因此,這肯定比我們今年早些時候的預期要長幾個季度。

  • Yes, Ed West sorry, Frank matches down sort of low singles for this year.

    是的,艾德韋斯特抱歉,弗蘭克今年的比賽成績較低。

  • I think we definitely think for us in general that the Q3 is the low point for us.

    我認為我們肯定認為第三季是我們的最低點。

  • And then that will start to trend up, as Neil said, 500, fourth quarter and then into next year.

    然後,正如尼爾所說,第四季將達到 500 家,然後進入明年。

  • And the pacing just dependent on a sort of the market momentum there on foundry has been down double digits this year, and that's been pretty consistent throughout the year.

    而僅依賴代工市場動力的步伐今年已經下降了兩位數,而且這一情況全年都非常穩定。

  • So we expected a little bit more of a recovery in the second half of this year.

    因此,我們預計今年下半年會出現更多復甦。

  • But as Neil said, it's a little bit longer.

    但正如尼爾所說,它有點長。

  • So here because we think about the trends for next year, I think the first quarter, just to remind you, we had called out I may change a sort of sort of one-time item this year.

    所以在這裡,因為我們考慮明年的趨勢,我想是第一季度,只是提醒您,我們已經說過我今年可能會改變某種一次性項目。

  • So beyond that, we expect steady growth Anno into next year for the segment.

    因此,除此之外,我們預計該領域明年將穩定成長。

  • Thanks very much.

    非常感謝。

  • My follow-up switching tech, maybe to the EBITDA margins, AT & TEP. and sales have been sort of down year on year for a few quarters.

    我的後續轉換技術,可能是 EBITDA 利潤率,AT & TEP。幾個季度以來,銷售額較去年同期有所下降。

  • You've mentioned the production issues with supply chain efficiency sort of moving around as we look ahead of that EP., kind of what's the confidence that margins can return to year-on-year expansion in the coming quarters?

    您提到,當我們展望該EP時,供應鏈效率的生產問題在某種程度上發生了變化,對未來幾季利潤率恢復年比擴張的信心有多大?

  • No, you're right.

    不,你是對的。

  • I mean the second and third quarter, we had your call last year, we had some big supply chain liberation farm-in product businesses in our product businesses.

    我的意思是第二和第三季度,我們去年接到了你們的電話,我們的產品業務中有一些大型供應鏈解放農場產品業務。

  • Side of this year were down a little bit in the eyes down on had a little bit of negative mix.

    今年的一面有點向下,眼睛向下有一點負面的混合。

  • And we're obviously investing for growth there just because it's always been a consistent settled digit grower for us.

    顯然,我們在那裡投資是為了成長,因為它對我們來說一直是一個穩定的數位成長者。

  • Orders continue to invest in India.

    訂單繼續投資印度。

  • But I think for the year, just thinking broadly, we're going to be flat EBITDA margin.

    但我認為,從廣泛的角度來看,今年我們的 EBITDA 利潤率將持平。

  • And so so it should inflect back up in the fourth quarter.

    因此,它應該會在第四季回升。

  • Great.

    偉大的。

  • Thank you.

    謝謝。

  • Your next question comes from Terry Tillman with Truist Securities.

    您的下一個問題來自 Truist Securities 的 Terry Tillman。

  • Your line is now open.

    您的線路現已開通。

  • Yes, thanks.

    是的,謝謝。

  • Hi, Neil.

    嗨,尼爾。

  • Jason, exact data at my primary questions is actually on the enterprise software bookings.

    傑森,我的主要問題的確切數據實際上是企業軟體預訂的數據。

  • I think you said double digits up from high single digits.

    我認為你說的是從高個位數上升到兩位數。

  • I don't know what you could share in terms of what kind of budget flush you're looking for for 4Q.

    我不知道您在第四季度尋求什麼樣的預算充裕方面可以分享什麼。

  • I assume there is some of that.

    我想有一些這樣的情況。

  • So if you could make it either a comment on that or just more importantly, it's the bookings are picking up.

    因此,如果您可以對此發表評論,或者更重要的是,預訂量正在增加。

  • Do you think there's potentially an inflection in the first half next year or second half?

    您認為明年上半年或下半年可能會出現轉折點嗎?

  • Just depending on how some of that activates the revenue?

    僅僅取決於其中一些如何激活收入?

  • And then I had a follow-up.

    然後我進行了跟進。

  • Yes.

    是的。

  • Provide some color there, Terry.

    在那裡提供一些顏色,特里。

  • I mean, I think you're right, the federal court system, not necessarily a budget flush is probably more customer behavior is typically our biggest quarter.

    我的意思是,我認為你是對的,聯邦法院系統不一定是預算充裕,可能更多的是客戶行為通常是我們最大的季度。

  • So we'll probably see a team to see how that plays out.

    所以我們可能會看到一個團隊來看看效果如何。

  • The last couple of quarters have been strong.

    過去幾季表現強勁。

  • And I think just a little bit of color that you mentioned that Adaptec, Yell.com enterprise got a little bit better.

    我認為您提到的 Adaptec、Yell.com 企業的一點色彩變得更好了。

  • So we think about what happened from Q2 to Q3.

    所以我們想想從第二季到第三季發生了什麼事。

  • That was a little bit of the delta.

    那是三角洲的一小部分。

  • Also, Vertafore was really strong specifically in the carrier space.

    此外,Vertafore 在航空母艦領域確實非常強大。

  • I'm also had good broker expansions, but carriers is that an area that has been a focus for them.

    我也有很好的經紀商擴張,但營運商是他們一直在關注的領域。

  • So good to see some new logo wins there.

    很高興看到一些新標誌在那裡獲勝。

  • And then as it has been really strong as we'd mentioned, but it's really good to see the balance of both expansion of existing customers in this new logo wins out with their see our cloud product.

    正如我們所提到的,它非常強大,但很高興看到這個新徽標中現有客戶的擴展與他們看到的我們的雲端產品的平衡勝出。

  • So it's good to see that there continue to win in the market with new logos and innovating, we think about the phone.

    因此,很高興看到新標誌和創新繼續贏得市場,我們想到了手機。

  • But it's going to be important, as I mentioned it in terms of how that plays into next year and sort of how that will that translate into revenue.

    但這將很重要,正如我在明年如何發揮作用以及如何轉化為收入方面所提到的那樣。

  • But we're encouraged by what we saw the last couple of quarters.

    但我們對過去幾季的情況感到鼓舞。

  • Yes, we are a stylistic.

    是的,我們是風格家。

  • We continue to have enterprise companies that have it will matriculate into revenue and next year, the timing of waste events of implementation timeframes and customer base.

    我們繼續有擁有它的企業公司將計入收入和明年的實施時間框架和客戶群的浪費事件的時間。

  • But yes, it's definitely that's right and that we're watching carefully.

    但是,是的,這絕對是正確的,我們正在仔細觀察。

  • That's good to hear.

    很高興聽到這個消息。

  • And just my secondary question, Neil, you commented earlier when it when you get into kind of business level commentary and kind of talent management that you make, I think you talked about ProCare and frontline, I guess kind of what drove kind of some changes there are things that go to market is the idea that, hey, they're doing well, but they could be doing even better?

    我的第二個問題是,尼爾,您之前評論過,當您進行業務層面的評論和人才管理時,我想您談到了 ProCare 和前線,我想這推動了一些變革有些東西進入市場的想法是,嘿,他們做得很好,但他們可以做得更好嗎?

  • Or just maybe you could double-click a little bit into the ProCare and frontline and what to expect with some of those leadership changes?

    或者,也許您可以雙擊進入 ProCare 和前線,以及對其中一些領導層變化有何期待?

  • Thank you.

    謝謝。

  • Sure.

    當然。

  • So further two different things.

    還有兩個不同的事情。

  • So I'll start with ProCare.

    所以我將從 ProCare 開始。

  • So broker, we identified in our diligence process that there's an opportunity to welcome to improve modernize, wherever were to issue uptick on the go-to-market functions.

    因此,經紀人,我們在盡職調查過程中發現,無論在何處提高上市功能,都有機會改善現代化。

  • And so within a couple of months of ownership, by the way we share those deals is finding value creation lever with the leadership team approach where they agreed with that, we made a leadership change of like what's happening there.

    因此,在所有權的幾個月內,我們分享這些交易的方式是透過領導團隊的方法來尋找價值來創造槓桿,在他們同意的情況下,我們進行了領導層的變更,就像那裡正在發生的那樣。

  • Obviously, with the leadership change in go-to-market for ProCare, which was an internal promote somebody from within the Company from the UK, started attacking the underlying opportunities, which logistics of lead generation opportunity.

    顯然,隨著 ProCare 進入市場的領導層發生變化,這是公司內部來自英國的某人的內部晉升,開始攻擊潛在的機會,即潛在客戶生成機會的物流。

  • There's a way they actually staff the call that's laid it out, but it obviously and business development closers, there's a compensation, again, goal.

    他們實際上有一種方法來為電話會議安排人員,但顯然,隨著業務發展的臨近,還有一個補償目標。

  • There's there's call scripts around attach rates and enough Sterling's all that is happening and and were both fixed very early days, but just starting to gain some encouragement sort of start to yield some fruit so that they get a job at finding very Thoratec pretty quickly from simply different through our existing a leader retires or is it are indicated he will retire.

    有關於附加費率和足夠的斯特林的所有正在發生的呼叫腳本,並且都在很早的時候就得到了修復,但剛剛開始獲得一些鼓勵,開始產生一些成果,以便他們很快就能找到非常Thoratec 的工作只是與我們現有的領導者退休或表明他將退休不同。

  • So we had an opportunity with master as we have long history with, as I mentioned, the higher that came to the organization to go to market with either Deltec that a wonderful job there than we first see opportunity.

    因此,我們有機會與大師合作,因為我們有悠久的歷史,正如我所提到的,進入該組織的高級人員與 Deltec 一起進入市場,那裡的工作比我們第一次看到的機會更好。

  • It was the construction index, just a terrific job in terms of the way the business is run with very much run it at Roper style, and it's very growth oriented leader.

    這是建立指數,就業務運作方式而言,這是一項非常棒的工作,非常以羅珀風格運營,而且它是一個以成長為導向的領導者。

  • And so given that Frontline is one of our more attractive growth assets, we wanted a growth leader there.

    因此,鑑於 Frontline 是我們更具吸引力的成長資產之一,我們希望在那裡有一位成長領導者。

  • And it's very early days of 82 months into the data or something like that at Frontline bottom end of the type of that is CFO, ConstructConnect, but broadly became the CEO ConstructConnect ended and head of FP&A became the CFO of constructing an extra from enterprise risk perspective, we're able to have sort of promote rotate leaders.

    數據還處於 82 個月的早期階段,或者類似的 Frontline 底端類型是 CFO、ConstructConnect,但大致上成為了 CEO,ConstructConnect 結束了,FP&A 負責人成為了從企業風險中構建額外的 CFO。看,我們可以進行某種程度的輪調領導。

  • And higher Rover is actually outside hires that have been a leader in that business versus the CEO, one of our larger businesses.

    更高的羅弗實際上是外部僱員,他們一直是該業務的領導者,而不是我們較大業務之一的執行長。

  • So that's a win-win for the organization and individuals.

    因此,這對組織和個人來說​​是雙贏的。

  • That's great.

    那太棒了。

  • That's very helpful.

    這非常有幫助。

  • Thanks.

    謝謝。

  • My pleasure.

    我的榮幸。

  • Your next question comes from Scott Davis with Melius Research.

    您的下一個問題來自 Melius Research 的 Scott Davis。

  • Your line is now open.

    您的線路現已開通。

  • Hey, good morning, guys.

    嘿,早上好,夥計們。

  • We're going to come up when it just it is a little bit of a high-level question, but there was a lot of price in the last couple of years, not just you guys pretty much everybody out there, but have you found any any harder to get price incrementally?

    當它只是一個有點高級的問題時,我們會提出這個問題,但在過去的幾年裡,價格上漲了很多,不僅僅是你們,幾乎每個人都在,但是你發現了嗎?更困難?

  • Are we back to kind of more normal when you walk into 2025, for example, would be back to kind of the more normal price increase cadence, particularly software, obviously.

    例如,當你走進 2025 年時,我們是否會回到更正常的價格上漲節奏,尤其是軟體,顯然。

  • But but just high-level picture, what do you see there?

    但這只是高層次的圖片,你在那裡看到了什麼?

  • So I would say this, I would assume because you asked the price question a few years ago as well.

    所以我會這麼說,我假設是因為幾年前你也問過價格問題。

  • So for us on software, we have always had a pricing mechanism in the air, our civil rights as a general matter, we treat it with 95 or so percent gross retention.

    因此,對於我們軟體產業來說,我們一直有一個懸而未決的定價機制,我們的公民權利作為一個普遍問題,我們以 95% 左右的毛保留率來對待它。

  • It's organic Ctrip, five or so percent.

    是攜程有機的,百分之五左右。

  • We're going to offset the vast majority of that each business unit level with prices just in the algorithms into price expectation with the customers is in what we do from a new product feature point of view.

    我們將從新產品功能的角度出發,用演算法中的價格來抵銷每個業務部門層級的絕大多數價格,以達到客戶的價格預期。

  • But with the with the R&D efforts were support that obviously of cross-sell upsell from their addition net retention, the one oh five, this range across the blended in our pricing, we've got that newer top of that, that I would say as of now muscle that as good as very well understood and built, we obviously get better in that example, we're getting better with that of over last year's and power plants like they didn't have that muscle bill validators, Bill.

    但是,隨著研發工作的支持,交叉銷售的追加銷售顯然來自於他們額外的淨保留,一五,這個範圍混合在我們的定價中,我們已經得到了更新的頂部,我想說到目前為止,我們已經很好地理解和建立了肌肉,在這個例子中,我們顯然變得更好了,我們比去年的發電廠變得更好,就像他們沒有肌肉帳單驗證器一樣,比爾。

  • But I would say we didn't get outsized pricing and software and and so in the past.

    但我想說的是,我們過去並沒有獲得過大的定價和軟體等等。

  • And so it's just revert due to normal on the tech businesses.

    因此,由於科技業的正常發展,它只是恢復了。

  • I would say that's a little difference.

    我想說這有一點差別。

  • Most of the businesses would take price when they launch new products.

    大多數企業在推出新產品時都會定價。

  • Now there's more just a more normalized, the inflationary every year, 18 months or so up to the to pass the regular way inflation across.

    現在有更多更正常化的通貨膨脹,每年18個月左右,直到以常規方式通貨膨脹。

  • Yes, typically metals products, you it's all about new products versus price just because you are sort of bound by some of that customer contracts with hospitals and the like.

    是的,通常是金屬產品,一切都與新產品與價格有關,只是因為您受到與醫院等的一些客戶合約的約束。

  • But I think Bill's point on non-software, as it's been part of the rhythm for a long time, a lot of what we've done a strategic plan reviews is understand key purchasing criteria and really impacting data at a more detailed level for each of our businesses.

    但我認為比爾關於非軟體的觀點,因為它長期以來一直是節奏的一部分,我們所做的許多戰略計劃審查都是了解關鍵的採購標準,並在更詳細的層面上真正影響每個數據我們的業務。

  • And that's helped them progressing to provide some confidence or just some insight into what the customer thinks about the value prop position.

    這幫助他們提供了一些信心,或者只是提供了一些關於客戶對價值支撐立場的看法的見解。

  • And that's been helpful as well.

    這也很有幫助。

  • Okay.

    好的。

  • Yes, that makes a lot of sense.

    是的,這很有意義。

  • Tests consistent with what you said a couple of years ago.

    測試結果和你幾年前說的一致。

  • But hey, guys, it's just that a lot of debate as it relates to software around Part DAID. Gener today, I would.

    但是,嘿,夥計們,這只是很多爭論,因為它與 Part DAID 相關的軟體有關。今天,我願意。

  • But I just wondered kind of your view now that you've had a chance to dig more into this and spend more time on it.

    但我只是想知道你現在有什麼看法,因為你有機會深入研究這個問題並花更多的時間。

  • And certainly in your slide decks and you're and you're launching products, but just degenerative a I essentially you raise the barrier to entry because you have the relationship with the customer already and you can you can shore or your your time to market on product innovation?

    當然,在你的幻燈片中,你正在推出產品,但只是退化,本質上你提高了進入壁壘,因為你已經與客戶建立了關係,你可以支持或你的上市時間關於產品創新?

  • Or or is it the opposite and people can come in with a lower priced product easier because just the development cycle has somewhat shorter.

    或者相反,人們可以更容易獲得價格較低的產品,因為只是開發週期稍微縮短了。

  • How do you guys think about that?

    你們對此有何看法?

  • I think it's very much so for the first.

    我認為首先是這樣。

  • So it is pretty indicative of what were the first of all, the highest level.

    所以它很能說明什麼是第一個、最高的層次。

  • It's a real things are definitely I think the whole market is it sort of the trough of disillusionment, if you will have a high zero, the reality is starting to catch up with a high, I would say the number, the number of new use cases that are gains created, I think just not only for Roper, Butler read externally is slowing, but we're very much advancing the existing use cases, whether it's internal productivity or customer-facing products.

    這是一個真實的事情,我認為整個市場是一種幻滅的低谷,如果你有一個高零,現實正在開始趕上一個高,我會說數量,新使用的數量我認為,不僅僅是Roper、 Butler 的外部閱讀正在放緩,我們正在大力推進現有用例,無論是內部生產力還是面向客戶的產品。

  • Thus far with remind you that everybody that from a why we think this is an accelerator, a sort of raises the of the barriers to entries to do generally they I think you have been at two things.

    到目前為止,我提醒大家,從我們為什麼認為這是一個加速器的角度來看,在某種程度上提高了進入門檻,我認為你們已經做了兩件事。

  • Well, right in our Quest Software businesses are naturally positioned better than others.

    嗯,我們的 Quest Software 業務自然比其他業務定位得更好。

  • In regards to these two questions.

    關於這兩個問題。

  • The first is you need to have already elements savers questions.

    首先,您需要已經有元素保存問題。

  • You need to have that data from that.

    您需要從中獲得該數據。

  • It is very, very specific to what the question is.

    這是非常非常具體的問題。

  • You're answering the north.

    你回答的是北方。

  • So the Inova question to ask again more new, what's the question that was the general tools are out there.

    因此,Inova 再次提出了更多新問題,通用工具的問題是什麼。

  • You have a very simple example.

    你有一個非常簡單的例子。

  • We have ever illegals a software business that is the ERP backbone for large law firms, right?

    我們曾經違法過作為大型律師事務所 ERP 骨幹的軟體業務,對嗎?

  • Professional services, project base building.

    專業服務,工程基地建設。

  • The question is not how you create a professional base, Phil, it's how you create a how does how does law firm a creative compliant bill for Roper Technologies, right.

    菲爾,問題不在於你如何建立一個專業基礎,而是你如何為羅珀科技公司製定一份創意合規法案,對吧。

  • And certain very specific bespoke question.

    以及某些非常具體的客製化問題。

  • The nuance question is where the journey of tools really, really shines.

    細微差別的問題是工具之旅真正真正閃耀的地方。

  • So unless you've had the incumbency really matters in that regard.

    因此,除非你已經任職,否則在這方面確實很重要。

  • So it's not about the DoD making develop software as fast or faster than any startup in Biloxi software from a general point of view.

    因此,從一般角度來看,這並不是國防部讓軟體開發速度比 Biloxi 軟體中的任何新創公司都快或更快。

  • But we have incumbency in the data privacy, verticalized software businesses generally and the accompanying the data and the specific questions or wish to sort of ask you to ask if you will.

    但我們在資料隱私、垂直化軟體業務以及隨附的資料和具體問題方面負有責任,或希望您詢問是否願意。

  • So that's good color and context.

    所以這是很好的顏色和背景。

  • Thanks.

    謝謝。

  • Good luck, guys.

    祝你好運,夥計們。

  • Appreciate it.

    欣賞它。

  • Thanks.

    謝謝。

  • Your next question comes from Steve Tusa with JPMorgan.

    您的下一個問題來自摩根大通的史蒂夫·圖薩。

  • Your line is now open.

    您的線路現已開通。

  • Hi, good morning.

    嗨,早安。

  • And just on the and again, following up on Julien's question on the SaaS business for next year.

    就這樣,再次跟進 Julien 關於明年 SaaS 業務的問題。

  • And so you which businesses are, you know, accelerating?

    那麼您知道哪些業務正在加速發展?

  • And how much of a headwind is that MHAMHA. on benefit in the first quarter?

    MHAMHA 是多麼大的逆風。第一季效益如何?

  • And then will you be able to kind of get into that mid single digit range for that business next year?

    那麼明年你的業務能否達到中個位數的水平?

  • So I think, Steve, I think we want to stop short of even implying any guidance in the next year.

    所以我認為,史蒂夫,我認為我們不想在明年暗示任何指導。

  • What I would say just broadly across the enterprise is we like the Linden and we're seeing enterprise software bookings step in Zacatecas normalized a pretty normalized 2024 year from which to grow.

    我想說的是,在整個企業範圍內,我們喜歡 Linden,我們看到薩卡特卡斯的企業軟體預訂在 2024 年開始正常化,並開始成長。

  • You've seen every accelerations heading into Q4.

    您已經看到進入第四季度的每一次加速。

  • We expect that Q4 trends Acaria the 25, but I think we wanted to sort of stop there and shortage of issuing guidance next quarter.

    我們預計第四季度 Acaria 的趨勢是 25,但我認為我們想就此止步,下季發布指導意見不足。

  • That's right.

    這是正確的。

  • I think I've had a JV can call that as a company may say, in Q1 is a couple of points of drag.

    我認為我有一家合資企業可以稱之為公司可能會說的那樣,在第一季有幾個阻力點。

  • And lastly on cash on obviously really strong result here seasonally stepped-up or how does it now behave seasonally in Q4?

    最後,關於現金,顯然非常強勁的業績季節性上升,或者現在第四季的季節性表現如何?

  • Last year you were down, but not now not by much like basically kind of flat to down.

    去年你的表現是下降的,但現在情況並非如此,基本上是持平到下降。

  • Is that kind of the new seasonality?

    這是新的季節性嗎?

  • Was there something unusual in Q4?

    第四季有什麼不尋常的事情嗎?

  • Maybe just help us with the seasonality because it's definitely a different benefit in the past given the frontline?

    也許只是幫助我們解決季節性問題,因為考慮到前線,這在過去絕對是不同的好處?

  • Yeah, cable used to be our strongest and now it looks at Q. three is our strongest.

    是的,cable曾經是我們最強的,現在看看Q.3是我們最強的。

  • I think it will be we will see quite the same increase in the foreign cars.

    我認為我們將會看到外國汽車同樣的成長。

  • We did the third up, assuming that transact came in as so that was helpful, but that they have that option, obviously, their strongest collections quarter as well.

    我們做了第三個,假設交易進來了,所以這是有幫助的,但他們有這個選擇,顯然,他們也是最強的收藏季度。

  • So they'll be up but not as much as Q3 and Q4.

    所以它們會上漲,但不會像第三季和第四季那麼高。

  • Got it.

    知道了。

  • Sir, one more just on Vertafore.

    先生,Vertafore 上還有一篇。

  • I didn't I didn't see it in the slides on any updates there.

    我沒有在幻燈片中看到任何更新。

  • Silver forehead.

    銀額頭。

  • I think Jason mentioned in his prepared remarks, they had a couple very, very nice wins in the quarter.

    我認為傑森在他準備好的演講中提到,他們在本季度取得了幾場非常非常好的勝利。

  • You can't really talk about quite yet, but we will be able to also they had have a very impactful products are these and they have a product called benefit point, which is the leading product for sort of managing the medical and health insurance book and the automation feature that saves like 45 minutes per customer per acre safe and permit important benefit plans.

    你還不能真正談論,但我們也可以他們有一個非常有影響力的產品,他們有一個叫做福利點的產品,這是管理醫療和健康保險賬簿的領先產品自動化功能可為每個客戶每英畝安全節省45 分鐘,並允許制定重要的福利計劃。

  • So this is this is tens of thousands of hours of productivity that were that were sort of given to our customers is a huge relief.

    所以這就是數萬小時的生產力,對我們的客戶來說是一種巨大的緩解。

  • They work on this for quite a bit.

    他們在這方面做了相當多的工作。

  • So live, what's happening with new product development point of view, a couple of exciting wins and steady as she goes.

    那麼,從新產品開發的角度來看,正在發生什麼,一些令人興奮的勝利,並且她的進展穩定。

  • Congrats on the cash.

    恭喜拿現金了

  • Thanks to do that.

    謝謝你這麼做。

  • Your next question comes from Joe Giordano with Cowen.

    你的下一個問題來自喬·佐丹奴和考恩。

  • Your line is now open.

    您的線路現已開通。

  • Hey, guys, good morning.

    嘿,夥計們,早安。

  • Cratering state.

    彈坑狀態。

  • So on Neptune is good to hear the production issues have been fixed.

    因此,在海王星上,很高興聽到生產問題已解決。

  • Just curious like we've been hearing some kind of mix, I guess about order patterns in that business.

    只是好奇,就像我們聽到某種混合一樣,我猜想是關於該行業的訂單模式。

  • I know almost everyone in that sector had like huge order for a multi-year period and backlogs are really high.

    我知道該行業的幾乎每個人都在多年的時間內收到了巨額訂單,而且積壓訂單非常高。

  • Are you getting any sense of like changing like an incoming flow from like a new new booking standpoint for Neptune?

    您是否感覺到像海王星的新預訂角度一樣,流入流量發生了變化?

  • I would say it's was very much what we expect and what are you just described.

    我想說,這正是我們所期望的,也是您剛才所描述的。

  • And so during the pandemic, I mean, pre pandemic, this was a 48 week lead time business.

    因此,在大流行期間,我的意思是,在大流行之前,這是一項 48 週的交貨期業務。

  • Very much of may have very much a book-and-ship type business.

    其中許多可能擁有圖書和運輸類型的業務。

  • During a during COVID.

    在新冠肺炎期間。

  • We got our lead times gapped out maybe 12 or 14 weeks, but we've got a deal 12, 18 months of backlog order the order activity.

    我們的交貨時間可能有 12 或 14 週的差距,但我們的訂單活動有 12、18 個月的積壓訂單。

  • And now that order of duration is compressing.

    現在,持續時間正在壓縮。

  • But the number the order volume, if you order repeat orders, are not.

    但訂單量的數字,如果重複下單,則不然。

  • So we're not it's just a instead of looking at your out there looking and whatever six new customer bookings six to nine months after that border of duration is coming in as expected.

    所以我們不只是看看你在外面的情況,無論六到九個月後的六到九個月的新客戶預訂是否按預期進入。

  • But yet, but nothing again, for competitive purposes, nothing from a from a number of meters that are being shipped to an account by account basis as all healthy.

    但是,出於競爭目的,從按帳戶運送到帳戶的多個儀表中沒有任何東西是健康的。

  • Yes, that makes sense.

    是的,這是有道理的。

  • Just curious of any of your businesses like if you when you talk to the leaders or any of them like super excited or super nervous one way or another about the election outcome, Mike, I don't think and maybe it Deltec and excited about the potential like an inflationary kind of sending three from the government like this.

    只是對您的任何企業感到好奇,就像您在與領導人或他們中的任何人交談時是否對選舉結果感到超級興奮或超級緊張,邁克,我不認為,也許德爾特克對選舉結果感到興奮像這樣從政府派遣三人的通貨膨脹的可能性。

  • And I guess, across the portfolio at anything that you call out one way or any other as a general matter?

    我想,在整個投資組合中,你以某種方式或任何其他方式提出的任何事情?

  • I'd say we're a political and no.

    我想說我們是政治家,但不是。

  • I mean, we're not we're not really impacted the positive and negative by by either the administration relative to Delta.

    我的意思是,我們並沒有真正受到與達美航空相關的政府的正面和負面影響。

  • I want to remind you and others is that the government always spins the administration determines the nature of the spend 30 go way back in the bush aerospace, defense and Obama was education, healthcare.

    我想提醒你們和其他人的是,政府總是在旋轉,政府決定了支出的性質。

  • And so the stent flow changes by the government contracts and dispositions or capabilities, order flow of the federal spending is going.

    因此,支架流量會因政府合約和配置或能力而變化,聯邦支出的訂單流量也會改變。

  • And so that's a relatively that's just what their businesses, I would say for two 25 to 25 appropriations are actually pretty well understood at this stage and aren't going to change based on the election.

    因此,這就是他們的業務,我想說的是,對於兩項 25 至 25 的撥款,現階段實際上已經很好理解,並且不會根據選舉而改變。

  • And that's why I think we're starting to see some of the enterprise direct contracting activity starting to talk a little bit, at least for the IB, your target of, if you will, as Pro relatively well understood.

    這就是為什麼我認為我們開始看到一些企業直接簽約活動開始談論一點,至少對於IB來說,如果你願意的話,你的目標是,正如專業人士相對較好理解的那樣。

  • Great.

    偉大的。

  • Thanks, guys.

    謝謝,夥計們。

  • Yes, thanks.

    是的,謝謝。

  • Your next question comes from Joe Ritchie with Goldman Sachs.

    您的下一個問題來自高盛的喬·里奇。

  • Your line is now open.

    您的線路現已開通。

  • Hey, good morning, guys.

    嘿,早上好,夥計們。

  • So my first my first question, just a little bit longer term, Neil, is you had these ambitions to grow the portfolio at a faster clip over the longer term period?

    所以我的第一個問題是,從長遠來看,尼爾,您是否有這些雄心壯志,希望在較長時期內以更快的速度成長投資組合?

  • Do you think you have the right portfolio in place?

    您認為您擁有合適的投資組合嗎?

  • Or is there maybe some addition by subtraction to help you kind of the key the investment that may be more of like a high single digit type organic growth number going?

    或者是否有一些加減法可以幫助您確定投資的關鍵,這可能更像是高個位數類型的自然成長數字?

  • Howard, I think we the portfolio like we think that there is some we have high confidence.

    霍華德,我認為我們對某些投資組合充滿信心。

  • There's opportunity for every Business Insider Rover to do better.

    每個 Business Insider Rover 都有機會做得更好。

  • No company has reached its full potential for a regulatory or its organic growth.

    沒有一家公司能夠充分發揮監管或有機成長的潛力。

  • What we like about our approach over organic growth is it tends to be quite sticky and sustainable.

    我們喜歡有機成長的方法是它往往具有相當的黏性和可持續性。

  • The downside is it takes time, right?

    缺點是需要時間,對嗎?

  • There's no that doesn't happen in a year.

    一年之內沒有什麼不會發生的。

  • And you know, we cited the on our investor day, all sites here in the for example, for us in SAP as our maritime business of eight or nine years ago was a low-single digit growth business now at the low 10s, maybe higher growth business, we think sustainably for quite some time, it takes it just unfortunately, it takes time to get the strategy right to enable the strategy to build the talent office to the CD and DVD, if you have a culture of continuous improvement were four or five years at across the portfolio for that.

    你知道,我們在投資者日引用了這裡的所有網站,例如,對於 SAP 來說,八九年前我們的海事業務是一個低個位數增長的業務,現在處於 10 多歲左右,甚至更高成長業務,我們認為永續發展相當長一段時間,這需要時間,只是不幸的是,需要時間來製定正確的策略,以使策略能夠建立CD 和DVD 的人才辦公室,如果你有持續改進的文化的話,四或整個投資組合五年。

  • And so we're definitely gaining some traction, but to what we like our odds in terms of able improved organic growth.

    因此,我們肯定會獲得一些吸引力,但就我們所希望的而言,我們有可能改善有機成長。

  • In addition, as I mentioned, I think you will, and that was definitely one of the early in the first question today is, as we deploy our capital were definitely tilting towards slightly higher growth businesses, Black Widow, transaction, bio Seaboard, high singles growth here to 10s.

    此外,正如我所提到的,我認為你會的,這絕對是今天第一個問題中的早期問題之一,當我們部署我們的資本時,肯定會傾向於增長稍高的業務,黑寡婦,交易,生物海岸,高成長業務單打成長到10秒。

  • So there's going to be a little bit of mix up over time in terms of the portfolio.

    因此,隨著時間的推移,投資組合將會出現一些混亂。

  • Got it.

    知道了。

  • That makes a lot of sense.

    這很有意義。

  • And maybe just following up on that last point, with your leverage now around three times net leverage and fees, recognize that the pipeline that for Friday, you expect to see any pause in M&A activity as you delever and then start to get a little bit more opportunistic?

    也許只是跟進最後一點,你的槓桿現在約為淨槓桿和費用的三倍,認識到週五的管道,你預計會看到併購活動暫停,因為你去槓桿化,然後開始得到一點更加機會主義?

  • Or or or could you see yourself doing transactions in the next?

    或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者或者您可以看到自己在接下來進行交易嗎?

  • You know, in the near term, call it the next three to six months.

    你知道,在短期內,稱之為未來三到六個月。

  • I mean the those Jason alluded, we've got the oh four billion-plus of M&A capacity as we sit today.

    我的意思是 Jason 提到的,我們今天擁有超過 40 億美元的併購能力。

  • Over the course of the next 12 months or so.

    在接下來的 12 個月左右的時間內。

  • We're very active in M&A markets if it's a very attractive market.

    如果併購市場非常有吸引力,我們就會非常活躍。

  • And there's lots of sellers, one of the largest Planters in the world, European sponsors on CNBC earlier this week and asked about what's the mantra that sell sell sell.

    本週早些時候,有很多賣家、世界上最大的種植者之一、歐洲贊助商在 CNBC 上詢問銷售銷售的口號是什麼。

  • So there's a lot of a whole lot of LTE pressure for the FTI. matters a lot.

    因此,FTI 面臨很大的 LTE 壓力。很重要。

  • And so there's essentially a still three or four years worth of deals that are compressing here next year, the next year or two.

    因此,明年、後一兩年,基本上還有三、四年的交易會被壓縮。

  • And so it's a very attractive market and we plan to be active in that front.

    因此,這是一個非常有吸引力的市場,我們計劃在這方面積極參與。

  • Great.

    偉大的。

  • Okay.

    好的。

  • Thank you.

    謝謝。

  • From Christopher Glynn with Oppenheimer.

    來自克里斯托弗·格林和奧本海默。

  • Your line is now open.

    您的線路現已開通。

  • Yes, thanks.

    是的,謝謝。

  • Was going to ask also about the deal dynamics out there.

    我還想詢問那裡的交易動態。

  • You answered the supply side on the demand side.

    你從需求方面回答了供給方面。

  • Is that still very favorable to where you see and, you know, diluted buyer activity per deal in terms of the competitive intensity on a per diem basis?

    這對您所看到的情況是否仍然非常有利,並且您知道,就每日競爭強度而言,每筆交易的買家活動被稀釋了?

  • That's the question.

    這就是問題所在。

  • It's hard to ultimately nobody knows what was called out that we did transact deal on a proprietary basis.

    最終很難沒有人知道我們在專有基礎上進行交易的原因。

  • I would say that our M&A teams are engaged in BCA board proprietary or qualified proprietary opportunities.

    我想說的是,我們的併購團隊正在從事 BCA 董事會專有或合格的專有機會。

  • And I can recall quite some time.

    我還記得很長一段時間。

  • But yes, I think it is until we got those are facts.

    但是,是的,我認為直到我們得到這些事實為止。

  • I think we're out speculate a little bit with so many opportunities that are going to come into the pipeline.

    我認為我們對即將出現的眾多機會進行了一些猜測。

  • I think all I am going to be a little more discerning earlier processes which might lead to a little bit lower competitive intensity, but partner though that the absolute case.

    我認為我將在早期流程中更加挑剔,這可能會導致競爭強度降低一點,但合作夥伴儘管這是絕對的情況。

  • Okay.

    好的。

  • And then in terms of Deltec in the general gov con exposure at one of the stimulus in mega projects, a lot of that compliance hurdles are gaining that prostate tests.

    然後就 Deltec 在大型專案刺激措施之一中的一般政府騙局曝光而言,許多合規障礙正在獲得前列腺測試。

  • Are you seeing any at increase least leading or some momentum in that?

    您至少看到領先地位增加或有一些勢頭嗎?

  • And what's the implication for those platforms from 25.

    25. 對這些平台有何影響?

  • But I would say the I would just refer back to we're talking about forward Goldcar.

    但我想說的是,我只想回顧一下我們正在談論的前鋒 Goldcar。

  • It has been for six quarters.

    已經連續六個季度了。

  • Slow is based on the uncertainty about how four to six quarters slow based on the uncertainty of the government spending, the operation of the government side.

    緩慢是基於四到六個季度如何緩慢的不確定性,基於政府支出、政府方面運作的不確定性。

  • We saw some real issues here in the last quarter or two relative especially the enterprise class of some of the larger customers are starting to be acquisitive.

    我們在過去一兩個季度看到了一些真正的問題,尤其是一些較大客戶的企業級客戶開始積極收購。

  • Again, Phil check the exact underpinnings of the drivers there.

    菲爾再次檢查了驅動程式的確切基礎。

  • So that might be infrastructure, but some of it might be other things.

    所以這可能是基礎設施,但其中一些可能是其他東西。

  • That's not at our specific for you.

    這不是我們專門為您準備的。

  • Okay.

    好的。
