73 Iteris has reported total revenues of US18.1 million for its fiscal first quarter 2015, up six per cent over the same quarter a year ago. This was primarily driven by a 20 per cent increase in roadway sensors. iPerform revenues were also up 15 per cent, while transportation systems revenues were down seven per cent, but added US$10.1 million in new contracts

The increase in roadway sensors revenues was largely attributable to the success of various growth initiatives, including increases in the distribution of certain OEM products for the intersection market and higher unit sales of key products. iPerform revenues were primarily driven by increases in iPeMS performance measurement sales and ClearPath Weather services, which are legacy offerings in iPerform. The decline in transportation systems revenues was primarily attributed to timing delays with the start of certain new projects in the backlog, as well as a reduction in sub-consultant activity in the current quarter.

“Our first quarter fiscal 2015 results were encouraging, with double-digit growth in our roadway sensors business,” said Abbas Mohaddes, president and CEO of Iteris. “The record first quarter in roadway sensors was primarily due to strong demand for key products, including Vector, Velocity, and SmartCycle, as well as our planned increase in the sale of OEM distributed products. While our transportation systems segment was down this quarter, we entered into US$10.1 million of new transportation systems contracts in the first quarter that we expect to have a positive impact on our revenue in future quarters.

“We expect our core businesses will continue to fund our strategic investments in this exciting new marketplace, which should lead to growth in new target markets that can generate positive returns for our shareholders.”
