its (ts)
adj. The possessive form of it.
Used as a modifier before a noun: The airline canceled its early flight to New York.
[Alteration of it's : it + -'s.]
Usage Note: Its is the possessive form of the pronoun it and is correctly written without an apostrophe. It should not be confused with the contraction it's (for it is or it has), which should always have an apostrophe.
