Measurement and Control smart metering organic revenue change measures the dollar change in organic revenue from smart metering and related applications.

Xylem reported a $7M organic revenue decline in smart metering and other applications in the second quarter of 2026.

Lower shippable backlog affected water metering

Xylem said U.S. water had lower shippable backlog coming into the quarter, partly offset by higher energy sales volume.

That makes the change sensitive to backlog timing as well as end-market demand.

The dollar change is narrower than segment growth

Measurement and Control Solutions also includes analytics applications, which were essentially flat organically.

Use the metric with Measurement and Control Solutions organic revenue growth and Measurement and Control Solutions adjusted EBITDA margin.
