Ituran reports Q4 EPS 60c vs. 47c last year

Reports Q4 revenue $320M vs. $293.1M last year. Eyal Sheratzky, Co-CEO of Ituran, said, “We are very pleased with our record results for 2023 across the board, capping the year with a strong fourth quarter which demonstrates Ituran’s resilience and strength. This is especially true against the background of significant global macro challenges in recent quarters and in Israel in particular, since October.” Sheratzky continued, “We are very pleased with Ituran’s solid and growing profitability as well as the record cash generation in our business throughout 2023. We are therefore very happy to share these continuing fruits of our success and reward our loyal shareholders for their long-term support of our company. We announced a very significant increase in our regular quarterly dividend payout to shareholders, totaling $8 million per quarter going forward. This is more than double the regular quarterly dividend we paid since Q3 2021 and up 60% compared with the updated dividend policy that we issued last quarter. This is a testimony to the Board’s confidence in our abilities to continue our growth and profitability path for the foreseeable future.”
