About Badger Meter INC

Badger Meter Inc. (NYSE: BMI) is a U.S.-listed water technology company headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, United States. Founded in 1905 by two Milwaukee entrepreneurs who developed the first frost-proof water meter, the company has evolved from a traditional metering business into a broader smart-water platform with more than a century of operating history. For investors, Badger Meter is best understood as a specialized industrial technology company focused on water infrastructure, with a growing mix of hardware, connectivity, software and recurring services. ([investors.badgermeter.com](https://investors.badgermeter.com/news-releases/press-release-details/2008/Milwaukee-Wisconsin-US-Fresh-Water-CapitalCONNECTIVITY-Article/default.aspx?utm_source=openai)) The company’s core business spans flow measurement, water quality monitoring and control. Its product set includes residential and industrial ultrasonic meters, ORION® communication endpoints, BEACON® SaaS cloud software, water-quality instrumentation, and the BlueEdge® suite that ties together metering, analytics and network visibility. Badger Meter markets these solutions to water utilities, municipalities, commercial customers and industrial users, and it also highlights applications in HVAC, property operations and data centers. The strategic emphasis is on helping customers measure usage more accurately, reduce non-revenue water, improve billing, and manage infrastructure more efficiently. ([badgermeter.com](https://www.badgermeter.com/en-gb/products/meters/ultrasonic/residential-ultrasonic-flow-meters/?utm_source=openai)) Competitively, Badger Meter benefits from a strong installed base, a long operating history, and a growing reputation in connected water management. Its differentiation comes from combining measurement devices with communications hardware and cloud analytics, allowing utilities to move from periodic manual reads toward real-time insight and remote management. The company’s ultrasonic meter roadmap, cellular AMI offering and software stack help deepen customer relationships and raise switching costs.

The company also uses acquisitions to expand its capabilities and international reach.

In May 2024, Badger Meter launched BlueEdge as a unified suite of water-management solutions. In January 2025, it completed the acquisition of SmartCover, expanding into sewer and stormwater monitoring. In April 2026, it announced the acquisition of UDlive, a U.K.-based sewer line monitoring specialist, to strengthen its BlueEdge platform and broaden its collection-system monitoring capabilities. These moves underscore a clear strategy: build a more comprehensive smart-water franchise across the entire water cycle.
