Xylem Inc. announced the sale of its international water and heat metering business to Aurelius, a division of the company’s Measurement and Control Solutions segment. The transaction includes assets, products, and facilities serving customers in Europe and select international markets, and the division generated approximately $250 million in revenue in 2024 with an adjusted EBITDA margin that was dilutive to Xylem.
Xylem will retain its North American smart metering business, which continues to be a strategic focus for above‑market growth. The company said the sale aligns with its portfolio simplification strategy, allowing it to concentrate on high‑margin opportunities in its core markets. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026, pending regulatory approvals and customary closing conditions.
The divestiture is part of Xylem’s broader effort to streamline operations and improve capital allocation. By shedding a non‑core, lower‑margin segment, Xylem aims to enhance its financial flexibility and focus on its leading smart metering and digital solutions in North America. The move is expected to support the company’s long‑term growth strategy and shareholder value.
