Daly, Ph.D. has informed the Board of his intention if elected to serve on the Iteris Board of Directors until March 31, 2020, at which time he will step down from the Board.

The Board looks forward to finding a replacement with the knowledge, experience and skills to match the needs of our business as we grow and evolve. Further, the Company remains committed to implementing best practices in corporate governance, including the continuous refreshment of our Board.”
Dr Daly said: “I am honored to have served on the Board of Iteris for many years, during which time the Company has accumulated a valuable portfolio of intellectual property.
