				 Roper said it expected Deltek to generate $535 million in 
				revenue and add $80 million to its cash flow in 2017. 
				 
				The deal would be funded by cash on hand, borrowings under 
				existing credit facility and new debt, Roper said on Tuesday. 
				 
				Reuters had reported in July that Thoma Bravo was exploring a 
				sale of Deltek. 
				 
				Thoma Bravo took Deltek private in an all-cash deal valued at 
				$1.1 billion in 2012. 
				 
				Herndon, Virginia-based Deltek provides enterprise software to 
				the majority of the top 100 U.S. federal contractors, as well as 
				some of the world's largest engineering, architectural, 
				accounting and consulting firms. 
				 
				The transaction is expected to close before the end of this 
				year, Roper said.
