Is Ituran Location and Control Ltd. (NASDAQ:ITRN) a buy in 2026?
Yes, on balance. The Compass leans toward accumulating Ituran Location and Control Ltd. at current levels.
A boring Israeli telematics cash machine with Brazilian growth optionality, trading like a sleepy industrial when it behaves like a recurring-revenue software business.
Where ITRN is headed
Ituran is one of those businesses that nobody outside Tel Aviv and São Paulo thinks about, and that is precisely the setup. Strip away the 'scientific instruments' classification and what you actually own is a subscription business with roughly 2.4 million paying subscribers, a 30% return on equity, almost no debt, and gross margins approaching 50%. The product is mundane (a box in your car that helps recover it if stolen, plus a growing layer of fleet management and usage-based insurance services), but the economics are not. In markets where car theft is a structural problem rather than an occasional headline (Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Israel), Ituran sells what is effectively insurance-mandated peace of mind, and the insurers themselves push the product onto policyholders.
