This
Amendment No. 6 to Statement of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule
13D (this “Amendment No.
6”) amends the Statement
of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting
Persons on February 26, 2016 (as amended, the “Schedule 13D” or this “Statement”), with respect to the Common Stock,
$0.10 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), of Iteris, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used but not
defined in this Amendment No. 6 shall have the meanings set forth
in the Schedule 13D. Except as amended and supplemented by this
Amendment No. 6, the Schedule 13D remains unchanged.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other
Consideration.
The
total cost for purchasing the Common Stock reported as owned by the
Reporting Persons, including brokerage commissions, was
approximately as follows: FGPP, $724,382, FGPM, $519,115, and RELM,
$2,709,791. The source of these funds was working capital of FGPP,
FGPM, and RELM, as applicable.
The
Common Stock reported as owned by Mr. Cerminara was received as
compensation for his service as a director of the Company. On
September 1, 2016, Mr. Cerminara received 2,605 restricted stock
units, which vested in full on October 26, 2016. On March 3, 2017,
Mr. Cerminara received 8,146 restricted stock units, which vest on
the date of the Company’s 2017 annual meeting of
shareholders. Each restricted stock unit represents the right to
receive one share of Common Stock.
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
(a) The
Reporting Persons beneficially own in the aggregate 1,757,494 shares of Common
Stock, which represents approximately 5.4% of the
Company’s outstanding
shares of Common Stock.
Each of
FGPP, FGPM and RELM directly holds the number and percentage of
shares of Common Stock disclosed as beneficially owned by it in the
applicable table set forth on the cover page to this Statement.
Share purchases by RELM were made through Tactical Capital
Investments LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a
wholly-owned subsidiary of RELM. None of the other Reporting
Persons or, to the Reporting Persons’ knowledge, any individuals
identified on Schedule B to the Schedule 13D directly holds any of
the shares of Common Stock disclosed in this Statement, except as
previously described in Item 5 of the Schedule 13D or as described
below.
100
shares of Common Stock are held by RELM of record; the remaining
shares of Common Stock held by RELM are in an account that is
managed by CWA Asset Management Group, LLC (doing business as
“Capital Wealth
Advisors”). CWA Asset
Management Group, LLC provides wealth management, estate planning
and family office services to individual investors. Fundamental
Global Investors, LLC owns 50% of CWA Asset Management Group, LLC.
In addition, CWA Asset Management Group, LLC holds 99,578 shares of Common Stock
for the accounts of individual investors, which represents
approximately 0.3% of the Company’s outstanding shares of
Common Stock.
Each
percentage ownership of shares of Common Stock set forth in this
Statement is based on the 32,566,210 shares of Common Stock
reported by the Company as outstanding as of August 1, 2017 in its
Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on September 1, 2017.
(c)
The transactions effected by the Reporting Persons in the Common
Stock through the open market since the filing of Amendment No. 5
to the Reporting Persons’ Schedule 13D on August 22, 2017 are
set forth on Schedule A to this Statement.
