Badger Meter holds 42.1% gross margin as software and pricing power offset chip costs

Badger Meter (NYSE:BMI) said base sales, which exclude its May 2026 acquisition of water monitoring company UDlive, rose 5% from the second quarter. The utility water technology company reported the figure on its third-quarter earnings call on October 22, 2026. Base gross margin reached 42.1%, the top of its normalised range, despite electronic component supply constraints. Chief executive officer Ken Bockhorst said customers value its products, so the company can pass on higher costs. Badger Meter also launched OneNetwork, a software platform that combines advanced metering infrastructure, network monitoring, and water quality data. It raised its dividend 10%, extending a 34-year growth streak, and expects higher base sales in the fourth quarter.
