Lindsay Corporation Reports Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2025 Results

Double-digit annual revenue growth and record full-year earnings

OMAHA, Neb., October 23, 2025—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, 2025.

Key Highlights

Fourth Quarter:

Full-Year:

“In the fourth quarter, our international irrigation business continued to deliver strong growth, led by marked improvement in South America and further supported by an increase in project revenues in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region," said Randy Wood, President and Chief Executive Officer. "North America irrigation revenues were down in the quarter in line with expectations, primarily due to lower storm damage replacement activity, but also reflecting the challenging market conditions that persist. Infrastructure revenues were also lower in the quarter, due primarily to the timing of Road Zipper project sales compared to last year."

Wood continued, "I am very pleased with our ability to deliver strong full-year results with record net earnings and earnings per share despite challenging market conditions in North America irrigation. This, in addition to a 15 percent growth in operating income while delivering year-over-year improvement in operating margin, serves as a testament to the resiliency of our operating model and the execution-focused mindset of our teams globally. Our performance also illustrates the value of the geographic diversification of our business. Our operating performance, along with effective working capital management, resulted in strong free cash flow generation which further enhances our ability to continue funding growth investments in innovation and other long-term shareholder value creation opportunities."

Fourth Quarter Summary

Revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 were $153.6 million, a decrease of $1.4 million, or 1 percent, compared to revenues of $155.0 million in the prior year. Higher international irrigation revenues were offset by lower revenues in both North America irrigation and the infrastructure segment compared to the prior year.

Operating income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 was $11.3 million, a decrease of $2.2 million, or 16 percent, compared to operating income of $13.5 million in the prior year. Operating margin was 7.4 percent of sales, compared to

8.7 percent of sales in the prior year. The decrease in operating income and operating margin resulted from lower revenues and a less favorable margin mix of revenues compared to the prior year.

Net earnings for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 were $10.8 million, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 15 percent, compared with net earnings of $12.7 million in the prior year. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter of $0.99 reflected a decrease of 15 percent compared with diluted earnings per share of $1.17 in the prior year. The year-over-year decrease in net earnings resulted from lower operating income and a higher effective tax rate that was partially offset by higher other income compared to the prior year.

Fourth Quarter Segment Results

Irrigation segment revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 were $129.0 million, an increase of $3.2 million, or 3 percent, compared to $125.9 million in the prior year. North America irrigation revenues of $50.0 million decreased $11.6 million, or 19 percent, compared to the prior year. The decrease in revenues resulted primarily from lower unit sales volume while average selling prices were up slightly compared to the prior year. Lower unit sales volume in the current quarter was due primarily to less storm damage replacement demand compared to the prior year, along with soft market conditions.

International irrigation revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 of $79.0 million increased $14.8 million, or 23 percent, compared to the prior year. The increase resulted from higher sales volumes in South America, the MENA region and Australia. The impact of foreign currency translation on revenues was minimal compared to the prior year.

Irrigation segment operating income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 was $17.7 million, an increase of $0.6 million, or 4 percent, compared to the prior year. Operating margin was 13.7 percent of sales, compared to 13.6 percent of sales in the prior year. Increased operating income resulted primarily from higher revenues and the positive leverage of fixed operating expenses compared to the prior year.

Infrastructure segment revenues for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 were $24.5 million, a decrease of $4.6 million, or 16 percent, compared to $29.1 million in the prior year. The decrease was primarily driven by lower Road Zipper System™ sales and lease revenues while sales of road safety products were slightly higher compared to the prior year. The prior year fourth quarter included Road Zipper System project sales that did not repeat in the current year.

Infrastructure segment operating income for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 was $3.5 million, a decrease of $2.1 million, or 37 percent, compared to $5.6 million in the prior year. Operating margin was 14.4 percent of sales, compared to 19.2 percent of sales in the prior year. Lower operating income and operating margin resulted from lower revenue and a less favorable margin mix of revenues compared to the prior year.

Full-Year Summary

Revenues for fiscal 2025 were $676.4 million, an increase of $69.3 million, or 11 percent, compared to revenues of $607.1 million in the prior year. Irrigation revenues increased $54.1 million primarily due to project sales in the MENA region and higher sales volume in Brazil and other parts of South America. These increases were partially offset by lower revenues in North America. Infrastructure revenues increased $15.2 million, primarily due to higher Road Zipper System project sales and higher sales of road safety products, while Road Zipper System lease revenues were slightly lower compared to the prior year.

Operating income for fiscal 2025 was $88.1 million, an increase of $11.5 million, or 15 percent, compared to operating income of $76.6 million in the prior year. Operating margin was 13.0 percent of sales, compared to 12.6 percent of sales in the prior year. The increase in operating income resulted primarily from higher revenues in both segments. Infrastructure segment operating margin increased due to a more favorable margin mix of higher Road Zipper System revenues while irrigation segment operating margin was comparable to the prior year.

Net earnings for fiscal 2025 were $74.1 million an increase of $7.8 million or 12 percent compared to net earnings of $66.3 million in the prior year. Diluted earnings per share for fiscal 2025 of $6.78 reflects an increase of 13 percent compared to $6.01, in the prior year. The increase in net earnings resulted from higher operating income and higher other income compared to the prior year. These increases were partially offset by the impact of a higher effective tax rate compared to the prior year.

The backlog of unfilled orders as of August 31, 2025, was $110.7 million compared with $180.9 million on August 31, 2024. Included in these backlogs are amounts of $9.8 million and $36.5 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 a large irrigation project in the MENA region during fiscal 2025.

Outlook

Mr. Wood concluded, “Favorable weather conditions across much of the U.S. this growing season are expected to boost grain production and supply, keeping pressure on commodity prices. The effect of trade disruptions with major buyers of U.S. farm commodities could also negatively impact demand and thus commodity prices. We expect demand for irrigation equipment in North America to remain tempered until the outlook for commodity prices and farm income improves. In Brazil, demand for irrigation equipment remains stable and we expect to see continued growth for our business but high interest rates and the ongoing credit constraints remain as headwinds. In developing international irrigation markets we remain optimistic regarding additional growth opportunities with projects under development."

"In our infrastructure business, we expect to see continued stable growth in Road Zipper System leasing and road safety products. The Road Zipper System project sales funnel remains active, but we do not anticipate a large project being realized in fiscal 2026."
