“We delivered record results in our first quarter, demonstrating continued growth and outstanding performance as we provide innovative solutions to our customers,” said Stephen G. Kaniewski, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Driven by strong end market demand, the solid execution and operational excellence of our global teams, and our commitment to disciplined pricing strategies, we achieved significant operating income growth and margin expansion in both segments. We are executing our growth strategies while meeting growing market demand through investments in incremental capacity and technology solutions to better serve our customers. Across global infrastructure markets, we are seeing strong, multi-year demand for our products and solutions that support our customers’ critical infrastructure buildouts and energy transition initiatives. Underlying agricultural market fundamentals, particularly in South America, continue to be favorable as global commodity prices remain elevated and 2023 net farm income levels in North America are projected to remain above historical averages. Our teams around the world remain committed to providing our customers with vital infrastructure products and solutions to enhance agricultural productivity with an unwavering focus on price leadership and shareholder value creation.”

First Quarter 2023 Segment Review

Infrastructure (68.9% of Net Sales)

Products and solutions to serve the infrastructure markets of utility, solar, lighting, transportation, and telecommunications, and coatings services to preserve metal products

Sales of $736.1 million grew 11.2% year-over-year, with double-digit sales growth in nearly all product lines, led by Transmission, Distribution and Substation (TD&S) and Solar (formerly Renewable Energy). Higher sales were driven by favorable pricing globally, higher volumes, notably in the Lighting and Transportation (L&T) and Solar product lines, and sales from the ConcealFab acquisition.

Operating Income improved to $94.4 million or 12.9% of net sales compared to $78.3 million or 11.9% of net sales in first quarter 2022, driven by favorable pricing and higher volumes.

Agriculture (31.1% of Net Sales)

Center pivot components and linear irrigation equipment for agricultural markets, including parts and tubular products; advanced technology solutions for precision agriculture

Sales of $332.2 million increased 8.3% year-over-year, with sales growth led by higher average selling prices of irrigation equipment globally. International sales were significantly higher, led by a record first quarter in Brazil and higher Middle East sales. North America sales were similar to last year despite first quarter 2022 benefiting from the delivery of record year-end backlog. Sales of agriculture technology products and services globally were higher.

Operating Income improved to $53.3 million, or 16.1% of net sales ($57.0 million or 17.2% adjusted¹) compared to $37.5 million or 12.4% of net sales ($41.6 million or 13.7% adjusted¹) in first quarter 2022. The benefit of higher average selling prices and additional volume leverage were partially offset by higher SG&A, including incremental R&D expense for technology investments.

Other

Offshore wind energy structures business

As previously announced, the divestiture of the offshore wind energy structures business was completed in December 2022. In the first quarter of 2022, the subsequently-divested business generated sales of $18.7 million and an operating loss of $0.8 million.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity, and Capital Allocation

The Company generated strong first quarter 2023 operating cash flows of $21.2 million through record earnings and effectively managing working capital while supporting sales growth. At the end of the first quarter, cash and cash equivalents were $172.9 million. This quarter, Valmont announced an additional $400.0 million share repurchase authorization with no expiration and repurchased $111.1 million of company stock, with $370.3 million remaining on the share repurchase program. During the quarter, Moody's reaffirmed the Company's Baa3/Stable credit rating.

Updating 2023 Full Year Financial Outlook and Key Assumptions

The Company is raising its full-year diluted earnings per share outlook from the previous indications that were communicated last quarter and is providing updated key assumptions for the year.


2023 Full Year Financial Outlook	Previous Outlook	Revised Outlook
Net Sales Growth (vs. PY)	4% to 7%	No Change
GAAP Diluted Earnings per Share	$14.70 to $15.25	$14.80 to $15.35
Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share¹	$15.35 to $15.90	$15.45 to $16.00

●

2022 sales include the offshore wind energy structures business which was divested at the end of fiscal 2022

●

Effective tax rate of 28% to 29%, primarily due to expected geographic mix of earnings

●

Minimal expected foreign currency translation impact to net sales

●

Capital expenditures expected to be in the range of $105 to $125 million to support strategic growth and digital transformation initiatives

●

Continued elevated inflation, raw material costs aligned with current price projections, and ongoing R&D investments

Kaniewski continued, “We are excited about the opportunity to support our customers and drive multi-year profitable growth by capitalizing on the strong market drivers across our businesses. These factors, along with our proven track record of execution and a backlog of $1.6 billion, give us confidence in our 2023 outlook. The long-term need for critical infrastructure investment globally is supporting multi-year market growth trends. Favorable global agriculture market trends, strong international markets and increasing adoption of innovative technology solutions are supporting growth for our Agriculture business. Looking ahead to the second quarter, we expect difficult sales comparisons in the Agriculture segment due to international project timing and last year’s ongoing delivery of considerable levels of backlog. Operating margin levels are expected to continue across the portfolio for second quarter and full year due to better price/cost alignment. We will continue to execute pricing strategies to manage broad-based inflation and leverage the strength of our global supply chain to deliver innovative products and solutions to our customers. Our balance sheet remains strong, giving us the flexibility to execute our long-term strategic plan. Our strategy remains focused on long-term profitable growth with an organizational emphasis on return on invested capital and operational excellence as we invest to meet the future needs of our customers and deliver value to our stakeholders.”

(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

(unaudited)

The non-GAAP tables below disclose the impact of intangible asset amortization (Prospera) and stock-based compensation recognized for the Prospera employees on fiscal 2023 and 2022 results. We believe the adjustments for Prospera allow for a better investor understanding of Agriculture segment performance related to traditional segment products. Amounts may be impacted by rounding. We believe it is useful when considering company performance for the non-GAAP adjusted net earnings and operating income to be taken into consideration by management and investors with the related reported GAAP measures.

REGULATION G RECONCILIATION OF EXCLUDING OTHER SEGMENT NET SALES

(Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

(unaudited)

Excluding Other segment net sales from the first quarter of fiscal 2022, which we refer to in this reconciliation as “Adjusted Net Sales” is a non-GAAP measure. The Other segment net sales were generated by the wind energy structures business which was divested in December 2022. Adjusted Net Sales should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings, cash flows from operations or other income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP, or as a measure of our operating performance or liquidity. The table below shows how Adjusted Net Sales is calculated from our statements of earnings. Adjusted Net Sales is calculated as Net Sales less Other segment net sales. Adjusted Net Sales allows investors to analyze our operating performance in light of the amount of net sales less net sales of a divested business.

We believe the adjustments for Prospera allow for a better investor understanding of Agriculture segment performance related to traditional segment products. We believe it is useful when considering company performance for the non-GAAP adjusted net earnings to be taken into consideration by management and investors with the related reported GAAP measures.

Regulation G Reconciliation of Excluding Other Segment Net Sales Dollars in thousands, except per share amounts Excluding Other segment net sales from the first quarter of fiscal 2022, which we refer to in this reconciliation as “Adjusted Net Sales” is a non-GAAP measure. The Other segment net sales were generated by the wind energy structures business which was divested in December 2022. Adjusted Net Sales should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings, cash flows from operations or other income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP, or as a measure of our operating performance or liquidity. The table below shows how Adjusted Net Sales is calculated from our statements of earnings. Adjusted Net Sales is calculated as Net Sales less Other segment net sales. Adjusted Net Sales allows investors to analyze our operating performance in light of the amount of net sales less net sales of a divested business.

The difference is due to non-recurring expenses which were settled in cash in the year of occurrence as part of net cash flows from operating activities. 10 Year Average FCF is $156M; Last 5 Years Has Averaged $138M 2 We use the non-GAAP measure of FCF, which we define as GAAP net cash flows from operating activities reduced by capex.
