Badger Meter Inc
Badger Meter makes equipment and software that help people measure and manage water. Its core products are water meters, flow measurement devices, sensors, and communication systems that let utilities and businesses track water use and detect leaks or other problems. It also sells software and services that turn that data into useful information for billing, operations, and maintenance. Its main customers are water utilities, municipalities, and commercial and industrial users that need accurate water measurement and monitoring. Badger Meter makes money by selling hardware, software, and related support, with a business that often becomes more valuable after the first sale because customers need ongoing meter replacement, data services, and system upgrades. That mix gives it both equipment sales and recurring service relationships. What makes the company’s role distinctive is that it sits at the point where physical water infrastructure meets digital monitoring. It is not just selling meters; it is helping customers manage a critical utility with better data, which is especially useful when water loss, billing accuracy, and infrastructure upkeep matter. That makes Badger Meter a specialized supplier in an essential but often overlooked part of the water industry.

Revenue: Q1 sales fell 9% year over year to $202 million, as project timing and weaker short-cycle orders hit results more than expected.
Outlook: Management now expects full-year 2026 organic revenue to be roughly in line with 2025, while still expecting a stronger back half as awarded projects start deploying.
Margins: Gross margin stayed solid at 41.7%, near the top of the company’s normal range, even though operating margin fell to 17.4% because of lower volume.
Acquisition: Badger Meter announced a $100 million deal to buy UD Live, a sewer monitoring software and hardware business, and said it should be accretive to EPS in year 1.
Project pipeline: Management said the company has 2.6 million to 3.6 million awarded connections expected to begin deployment in the back half of 2026, far more than the 800,000 connections that drove the prior cycle.
Market view: The company said the quarter’s weakness was timing-related, not a sign of weaker demand, market share loss, or a change in long-term water modernization trends.
