ITRN--
The company's resilience in subscriber growth, even during significant geopolitical disruptions, underscores the defensive qualities of its subscription-based business model. Ituran achieved a net addition of 40,000 subscribers, bringing the total to 2,548,000, despite a temporary market shutdown due to regional conflict [1].
Ituran's strategic partnership with BMW Motorrad in Brazil aims to capture the high-growth Latin American motorcycle telematics market. This partnership follows the successful traction of new motorcycle product offerings in the region and is expected to accelerate penetration in the under-tapped motorcycle segment [1].
The company's dividend policy and cash generation signal sustained shareholder returns. The board approved a $10 million quarterly dividend, marking a 25% increase from the $8 million baseline established in 2024. The company reported $88.7 million in net cash and marketable securities as of June 30, 2025, up from $77.3 million at year-end 2024 [1].
Looking ahead, management reaffirmed 2025 net subscriber growth expectations of 220,000 to 240,000, supported by product launches and geographic expansion, particularly in the motorcycle segment. Future revenue growth remains subject to local currency fluctuations given the company's global exposure [1].
Analysts expect the company to report an EPS of $0.73, representing a 10.6% YoY increase, and a revenue of $89.17 million, up by 5.0% YoY. Over the past two years, Ituran has consistently exceeded EPS estimates, with an average surprise of 10.4% [2].
