LIBERTY LAKE, Wash., May 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Itron, Inc. (NASDAQ: ITRI), which is innovating new ways for utilities and cities to manage energy and water, has completed the deployment of a smart water management project with Thane Municipal Corporation (TMC), the governing body of the city of Thane in western India.

Itron faces muted sales growth, soft bookings, and a questionable acquisition-driven strategy, leading to a cautious stance despite management's upbeat narrative. First-quarter sales declined 3% to $587 million, with margins under pressure and bookings translating to a weak 0.81x book-to-bill ratio. Recent $850 million acquisitions contribute minimally to revenue, raising concerns about deal multiples and future earnings dilution.

ITRI beats Q1 EPS and revenue estimates, driven by strong execution and record gross profit, despite a year-over-year sales dip and project timing headwinds.

Itron stock had been down as much as 9.7% today, but it battled back to close out the session in the green. The company posted Q1 sales and earnings that beat the market's expectations.
