SCHEDULE 13D

This Amendment No. 7 to Statement of Beneficial Ownership on Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 7”) 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. 7 shall have the meanings set forth in the Schedule 13D. Except as amended and supplemented by this Amendment No. 7, the Schedule 13D remains unchanged.
 
This Amendment No. 7 represents the final amendment to the Schedule 13D and constitutes an exit filing for the Reporting Persons as the Reporting Persons beneficially own less than five percent of the shares of Common Stock.
 
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
 
(a)           The Reporting Persons beneficially own in the aggregate 905,638 shares of Common Stock, which represents approximately 2.8% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock.
 
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 43,514 shares of Common Stock for the accounts of individual investors, which represents approximately 0.1% 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 32,787,202 shares of Common Stock reported by the Company as outstanding as of October 30, 2017 in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 7, 2017.
 
(c)         The transactions effected by the Reporting Persons in the Common Stock through the open market during the past 60 days are set forth on Schedule A to this Statement.
 
(e)           As of November 21, 2017, the Reporting Persons ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the shares of Common Stock.
 
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
 
Pursuant to rule 13d-1(k) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Reporting Persons have entered into an agreement with respect to the joint filing of this Amendment No. 7, which agreement is set forth on the signature page to this Statement.
