Lindsay Corporation Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2026 Results
OMAHA, Neb., October 22, 2026—Lindsay Corporation (NYSE: LNN), a leading global manufacturer and distributor of irrigation and infrastructure equipment and technology, today announced results for its fourth quarter and fiscal year, which ended on August 31, 2026.
Key Highlights
Fourth Quarter:
Full-Year:
“North America irrigation revenue and unit volume increased in the fourth quarter, supported by stronger commodity prices and improving farmer sentiment," said Randy Wood, President and Chief Executive Officer. "In the Middle East North Africa (MENA) region we completed delivery of approximately $70 million of the $80 million project that began in our fiscal second quarter. We expect to recognize the majority of the remaining $10 million in services revenue over the next 12 to 24 months. In Brazil, limited credit availability and low farmer profitability continued to pressure demand. We continue to be encouraged by the strong performance across our infrastructure business, which delivered double-digit percent revenue and operating income growth in the fourth quarter, supported by road safety products' third consecutive quarter of growth."
Mr. Wood continued, "I'm pleased with the dedication and resiliency of our global team as we continue to demonstrate strong execution despite a volatile macro-economic environment. During the quarter, we took additional actions to better align our cost structure with current market demand and support margins. In June, we implemented a global restructuring that reduced our workforce, which we expect to generate approximately $8.0 million of net annualized savings. We remain focused on strengthening our operating performance, while investing in opportunities that support sustainable, long-term shareholder value creation. In fiscal 2026, we returned $96.1 million to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends, while also funding the largest capital investment in our history at our Lindsay, Nebraska facility. During the year, we announced a new share repurchase authorization of $150.0 million, of which $100.0 million remained available at the end of the fiscal year."

Infrastructure segment revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 were $27.8 million, an increase of $3.3 million, or 13 percent, compared to $24.5 million in the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by higher sales of road safety products, which was partially offset by lower Road Zipper System™ sales and lease revenues compared to the prior year.
Infrastructure segment operating income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 was $5.0 million, an increase of $1.4 million, or 41 percent, compared to $3.5 million in the prior year. Operating margin was 17.9 percent of sales, compared to 14.4 percent of sales in the prior year. The increase in operating income and operating margin resulted from increased revenue and a more favorable margin mix of revenues compared to the prior year.

Revenues for fiscal 2026 were $635.9 million, a decrease of $40.5 million, or 6 percent, compared to revenues of $676.4 million in the prior year. Irrigation revenues decreased $26.5 million primarily due to lower comparative project sales in the MENA region and lower sales volume in North America and Brazil. Infrastructure revenues decreased $14.0 million, primarily due to lower Road Zipper System project sales as the prior year included a $20.0 million project that did not repeat. The decrease was partially offset by higher sales of road safety products compared to the prior year.
Operating income for fiscal 2026 was $66.9 million, a decrease of $21.2 million, or 24 percent, compared to operating income of $88.1 million in the prior year. Operating margin was 10.5 percent of sales, compared to 13.0 percent of sales in the prior year. The decrease in operating income resulted primarily from lower revenues in both segments. Irrigation segment operating margin decreased primarily due to lower unit volume and the resulting lower fixed cost absorption as well as higher input costs. Infrastructure operating margin decreased primarily due to a $20.0 million Road Zipper project in the prior year that did not repeat.
Net earnings for fiscal 2026 were $55.7 million, a decrease of $18.4 million, or 25 percent, compared to net earnings of $74.1 million in the prior year. Diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2026 of $5.33 reflects a decrease of 21 percent compared to $6.78 in the prior year. The decrease in net earnings resulted from lower operating income and a higher effective tax rate, both of which were partially offset by higher other income compared to the prior year.
The backlog of unfilled orders as of August 31, 2026, was $102.5 million compared with $110.7 million on August 31, 2025. Included in these backlogs are amounts of $17.6 million and $9.8 million, respectively, for orders not expected to be fulfilled within the subsequent twelve months. The decrease in backlog is primarily attributed to deliveries relating to the large irrigation projects in the MENA region.
Outlook
Mr. Wood concluded, “During our fourth quarter, we saw encouraging signs for forward crop prices, improving farmer sentiment in the near-term in North America, however, it is still too early to forecast significant recovery. We expect demand for irrigation equipment in North America to remain tempered until the outlook for commodity prices and farm income improves. In Brazil, high interest rates and ongoing credit constraints remain as headwinds. We're managing the business with discipline through these headwinds so that we're well-positioned when financing conditions improve. Brazil remains central to our long-term international growth, and our planned acquisition of Setorial Irrigação further expands our irrigation portfolio and strengthens our position in the Brazilian market. While we expect difficult year-over-year comparisons in the international irrigation project markets in fiscal 2027, we remain optimistic about the long-term opportunities driven by the growing need to improve food security and water conservation."
"In our infrastructure business, we anticipate sustained growth in road safety products, supported by the new road safety solutions we've recently introduced in the market. We anticipate Road Zipper System leasing to be comparable to this fiscal year, while we continue to actively manage Road Zipper System projects through the sales funnel."

You can find a discussion of many of these risks and uncertainties in the annual, quarterly and current reports that the Company files with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Investors should understand that a number of factors could cause future economic and industry conditions and the Company’s actual financial condition and results of operations to differ materially from management’s beliefs expressed in the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation.

Lindsay to Acquire Setorial, Expanding our Brazil Irrigation Portfolio © 2026 Lindsay Corporation Setorial’s locally manufactured hose reels complement Zimmatic™ center pivots—expanding the fields, crops and growers we can serve. STRATEGIC FIT Advances two strategic priorities: growing our presence in Brazil's expanding irrigation market and increasing our share of the global mechanized irrigation market across pivots, laterals and hose reels. GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES Opportunity to sell Setorial hose reels through Lindsay's national dealer network, expand Zimmatic pivots to Setorial's base of mills, cooperatives and growers in the region, and extend Setorial into the broader Latin American market through Lindsay's existing channel. CONTINUITY AT CLOSING Setorial is expected to retain its brand, Limeira plant, team and existing leadership, with uninterrupted product, parts and technical support. + Two-way cross sell
Lindsay's dealer network and Setorial's customer base create new opportunities for both product lines. + Complete portfolio
Center pivots serve larger fixed areas; mobile hose reels cover irregular, temporary or smaller areas and can work alongside pivots. + Continuity + growth
Lindsay’s global scale, resources and 70 years of irrigation experience provide a platform for Setorial’s long-term growth.
Infrastructure – Current Market Factors Congress extended the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) surface transportation programs through December 11, 2026. The five-year BUILD America 250 Act has cleared House T&I but not either chamber, making another short-term extension likely Inflation on material prices and labor costs have offset some of the impact of incremental funding Through July 2026, states had committed $293.9 billion, approximately 85 percent, of the IIJA’s $347.5 billion in highway and bridge formula funds to roughly 127,400 projects* The value of state and local government transportation contract awards was $165.6 billion for the 12 months ending July 2026, up approximately 16 percent over the prior year* The Road Zipper ™ project pipeline continues to be actively managed, and project timing remains challenging to predict © 2026 Lindsay Corporation *Source: American Road and Transportation Builders Association
Infrastructure Segment – Fourth Quarter Summary © 2026 Lindsay Corporation Revenue of $27.8 million increased 13 percent Higher road safety product sales compared with the prior year Partially offset by lower Road Zipper System™ sales and lease revenues Operating income of $5.0 million increased 41 percent Operating margin was 17.9 percent compared with 14.4 percent in the prior year, reflecting higher revenue and a more favorable mix Revenue +41% Operating Income (with operating margin) +13% $ in millions
