TABLE OF CONTENTS

PART I

ITEM 1 — Business

INTRODUCTION

Lindsay Corporation, along with its subsidiaries (collectively called the “Company”), is a global leader in providing a variety of proprietary water management and road infrastructure products and services. The Company has been involved in the manufacture and distribution of agricultural irrigation equipment since 1955 and has grown from a regional company to an international firm with worldwide sales, distribution and manufacturing operations. The Company is a Delaware corporation and maintains its corporate offices in Omaha, Nebraska. The Company has operations which are categorized into two reporting segments, Irrigation and Infrastructure.

Irrigation Segment – The Company’s irrigation segment includes the manufacture and marketing of center pivot, lateral move, and hose reel irrigation systems which are used principally in the agricultural industry to increase or stabilize crop production while conserving water, energy and labor. The irrigation segment also manufactures and markets repair and replacement parts for its irrigation systems and controls and large diameter steel tubing. The Company continues to strengthen irrigation product offerings through innovative technology such as Global Positioning System (“GPS”) positioning and guidance, variable rate irrigation, wireless irrigation management, irrigation scheduling, Industrial Internet of Things (“IIOT”) technology solutions and mobile device applications. The Company’s primary domestic irrigation manufacturing facilities are located in Lindsay, Nebraska; Olathe, Kansas; and Norfolk, Nebraska. Internationally, the Company has commercial and production operations in Brazil, France, China, Türkiye (formerly Turkey), and South Africa, as well as distribution and sales operations in the Netherlands, Egypt, Australia, and New Zealand. The Company also exports equipment from the U.S. and its global production facilities to other international markets.

Infrastructure Segment – The Company’s infrastructure segment includes the manufacture and marketing of moveable barriers, specialty barriers and crash cushions, road marking and road safety equipment, and railroad signals and structures. The infrastructure segment also offers technology to monitor critical safety infrastructure on roadways. The principal infrastructure manufacturing facilities are located in Rio Vista, California; Milan, Italy; and Lindsay, Nebraska.

PRODUCTS BY SEGMENT

IRRIGATION SEGMENT

Products – The Company manufactures and markets its center pivot and lateral move irrigation systems and its irrigation controls in the U.S. and internationally under its Zimmatic® brand. The Company also manufactures and markets hose reel travelers under the Perrot™ brand. The Company also produces or markets chemical injection systems, variable rate irrigation systems, flow meters, weather stations, soil moisture sensors, and remote monitoring and control systems. In addition to whole systems, the Company manufactures and markets repair and replacement parts for its irrigation systems. Furthermore, the Company designs and manufactures innovative IIOT technology solutions, data acquisition and management systems, and custom electronic equipment for critical applications under its Elecsys™ brand. Lastly, the Company provides contract manufacturing services, including steel tubing production, hot-dip galvanization, fabrication, welding, and related finishing and assembly services, for a variety of third-party industrial applications.

The Company’s irrigation systems are primarily of the standard center pivot type, with a small portion of its products consisting of the lateral move type. Both are automatic move systems consisting of sprinklers mounted on a water carrying pipeline which is supported approximately 11 feet off the ground by a truss system suspended between moving towers.

A standard center pivot in the U.S. is typically seven spans and approximately 1,300 feet long and is designed to circle within a quarter‑section of land, which comprises 160 acres, wherein it irrigates approximately 125 to 130 acres. A center pivot or lateral move system can also be custom designed and can irrigate from 25 to 600+ acres.

A center pivot system represents a significant investment to a farmer. In a dry land conversion to center pivot irrigation, approximately one‑half of the investment is for the pivot itself, and the remainder is attributable to installation of additional equipment such as wells, pumps, underground water pipes, electrical supply, and a concrete

pad upon which the pivot is anchored. The Company’s center pivot and lateral move irrigation systems can be enhanced with a family of integrated proprietary products such as GPS monitoring and other automated controls.

The Company also manufactures and distributes hose reel travelers. Hose reel travelers are typically deployed in smaller or irregular fields and usually are easy to operate, easy to move from field to field, and a smaller investment than a center pivot.

The Company also markets proprietary remote monitoring and automation technology that works on any brand of electronic pivot and drip irrigation systems and is sold on a subscription basis under the brand names FieldNET® and FieldWise®. FieldNET® is commercialized exclusively through Zimmatic® dealers while FieldWise® is used primarily by non-Zimmatic® dealers and customers. These technologies enable growers to remotely monitor and operate irrigation equipment, saving time, and reducing water and energy consumption. The technology uses cellular or radio frequency communication systems to remotely acquire data relating to various conditions in an irrigated field, including operational status of the irrigation system, position of the irrigation system, and water usage. Through its strategic partnership with Pessl Instruments, the Company is able to incorporate data from Pessl's METOS™ weather stations and soil moisture probes, among other products, into these technologies to provide growers with additional data for enhanced decision making. Growers can also remotely control the irrigation system, altering the speed to vary water application amounts, and controlling pump station and diesel generator operation. Data management and control is achieved using various online applications.

The Company also markets patented technology under the FieldNET Advisor® product name which delivers information that helps farmers decide precisely when, where and how much to irrigate. This technology combines crop and irrigation science and expertise accumulated since 1955 with FieldNET’s cloud computing capabilities, remote sensing functionality and machine learning to provide farmers with field-specific and crop-specific irrigation recommendations.

Other Types of Irrigation – Center pivot and lateral move irrigation systems compete with three other types of irrigation: flood, drip, and other mechanical devices such as hose reel travelers and solid set sprinklers. The majority of worldwide irrigation is accomplished by traditional flood irrigation. Flood irrigation is accomplished by either flooding an entire field, or by providing a water source (ditches or a pipe) along the side of a field, which is planed and slopes slightly away from the water source. The water is released to the crop rows through gates in the ditch or pipe, or through siphon tubes arching over the ditch wall into some of the crop rows. It runs down through the crop row until it reaches the far end of the row, at which time the water source is moved and another set of rows is flooded. Disadvantages or limitations of flood irrigation include that it cannot be used to irrigate uneven, hilly, or rolling terrain, it can be wasteful or inefficient and coverage can become inconsistently applied. In “drip” or “low flow” irrigation, perforated plastic pipe or tape is installed on the ground or buried underground at the root level. Several other types of mechanical devices, such as hose reel travelers, irrigate the remaining irrigated acres.

Center pivot, lateral move, and hose reel traveler irrigation offer significant advantages when compared with other types of irrigation. They require less labor and monitoring; can be used on sandy ground, which, due to poor water retention ability, must have water applied frequently; can be used on uneven ground, thereby allowing previously unsuitable land to be brought into production; can be used for the application of fertilizers, insecticides, herbicides, or other chemicals (termed “fertigation” or “chemigation”); and conserves water and chemicals through precise control of the amount and timing of the application.

Markets – Water is an essential and critical requirement for crop production, and the extent, regularity, and frequency of water application can be a critical factor in crop quality and yield. The fundamental factors which govern the demand for center pivot and lateral move systems are essentially the same in both the U.S. and international markets. Demand for center pivot and lateral move systems is determined by whether the value of the increased crop production and cost savings attributable to center pivot or lateral move irrigation exceeds any increased costs associated with purchasing, installing, and operating the equipment. Thus, the decision to purchase a center pivot or lateral move system, in part, reflects the profitability of agricultural production, which is determined primarily by the prices of agricultural commodities and the costs of other farming inputs. In new or developing international markets, demand for irrigation systems can also be driven by food security concerns and the desire of some countries to become more self-sufficient in food production.

The current demand for center pivot systems has three sources: conversion to center pivot systems from less water-efficient, more labor-intensive types of irrigation; replacement of older center pivot systems, which are beyond their useful lives or are technologically obsolete; and conversion of dry land farming to irrigated farming. Demand for

center pivots and lateral move irrigation equipment also depends upon the need for the particular operational characteristics and advantages of such systems in relation to alternative types of irrigation, primarily flood. More efficient use of the basic natural resources of land, water, and energy helps drive demand for center pivot and lateral move irrigation equipment. An increasing global population not only increases demand for agricultural output, but also places additional and competing demands on land, water, and energy. The Company expects demand for center pivots and lateral move systems to continue to increase relative to other irrigation methods because center pivot and lateral move systems are preferred where the soil is sandy; the terrain is not flat; the land area to be irrigated is sizeable; there is a shortage of reliable labor; water supply is restricted and conservation is preferred or critical; and/or fertigation or chemigation will be utilized.

United States Market – In the United States, the Company sells its branded irrigation systems, including Zimmatic®, to over 200 independent dealers, who resell to their customer, the farmer. Dealers assess their customers’ requirements, design the most efficient solution, assemble and erect the system in the field, and provide additional system components, primarily relating to water supply (wells, pumps, pipes) and electrical supply (on-site generation or hook-up to power lines). The Company's dealers generally are established local agribusinesses, many of which also deal in related products, such as well drilling and water pump equipment, farm implements, grain handling and storage systems, and farm structures.

International Market – The Company sells center pivot and lateral move irrigation systems throughout the world. International sales accounted for approximately 52 percent of the Company’s total irrigation segment revenues in each of fiscal 2026 and 2025. The Company sells direct to consumers, as well as through an international dealer network, and has production and sales operations serving the key markets in South America, Western and Eastern Europe, China, Africa, Middle East, Australia, and New Zealand. The Company also exports irrigation equipment from its global production facilities to other international markets.

The Company’s industry position and geographic footprint are such that it believes that it will likely be considered as a potential supplier for most large international agricultural development projects utilizing center pivot or lateral move irrigation systems.

Competition – Four manufacturers control a substantial majority of the U.S. center pivot irrigation system market. The international irrigation market includes participation and competition by the leading U.S. manufacturers, as well as various regional manufacturers. The Company competes by continuously improving its products through ongoing research and development activities, channel improvement initiatives, and its operational strategies. The Company continues to strengthen irrigation product offerings through innovative technology such as GPS positioning and guidance, variable rate irrigation, wireless irrigation management, and mobile device applications, as well as through the acquisition of products and services that allow the Company to provide a more comprehensive solution to growers’ needs. Competition also occurs in areas of price and seasonal programs, product quality, durability, controls, product characteristics, retention and reputation of local dealers, customer service, and, at certain times of the year, the availability of systems and their delivery time. On balance, the Company believes it competes favorably with respect to these factors.

INFRASTRUCTURE SEGMENT

Products – The Company’s Quickchange® Moveable Barrier™ system, commonly known as the Road Zipper System®, is composed of three parts: 1) T-shaped concrete and steel barriers that are connected to form a continuous wall; 2) a Barrier Transfer Machine™ (“BTM™”) capable of moving the barrier laterally across the pavement; and 3) the variable length barriers necessary for accommodating curves. A barrier element is approximately 32 inches high, 12-24 inches wide, 3 feet long, and weighs 1,500 pounds. The barrier elements are interconnected by heavy duty steel hinges to form a continuous barrier. The BTM™ employs an inverted S-shaped conveyor mechanism that lifts the barrier, moves it laterally to the opposite side of a lane, and sets it back down on the roadway surface.

In permanent applications, the Road Zipper System® increases capacity and reduces congestion by varying the number of directional traffic lanes to match the traffic demand and promotes safety by maintaining the physical separation of opposing lanes of traffic. Roadways with fixed medians have a set number of lanes in each direction and cannot be adjusted to traffic demands that may change over the course of a day, or to capacity reductions caused by traffic incidents or road repair and maintenance. Applications include high-volume highways where expansion may not be feasible due to lack of additional right-of-way, environmental concerns, or insufficient funding. The Road Zipper System® is particularly useful in busy commuter corridors and at choke points such as bridges and tunnels. Road Zipper Systems® can also be deployed at roadway or roadside construction sites to accelerate construction, improve traffic flow, and safeguard work crews, motorists, pedestrians, cyclists and others using the roadway by definitively separating the work area and traffic. Examples of types of work completed with the help of a Road Zipper System®

include highway reconstruction, paving and resurfacing, road widening, median and shoulder construction, and repairs to tunnels and bridges.

The Company offers a variety of equipment lease options for Road Zipper Systems® and BTM™ equipment used in construction applications. The leases extend for periods of one month or more for equipment already existing in the Company’s lease fleet. Longer lease periods may be required for specialty equipment that must be built for specific projects.

Crash Cushions – The Company offers a complete line of redirective and non-redirective crash cushions which are used to enhance highway safety at locations such as toll booths, freeway off-ramps, medians and roadside barrier ends, bridge supports, utility poles, and other fixed roadway hazards. The Company’s primary crash cushion products cover a wide variety of lengths, widths, speed capacities, and application accessories and include the following brand names: TAU®; Universal TAU-II®; TAU-II-R™; TAU-B_NR™; ABSORB 350®; Walt™; TAU-M™; ABSORB-M™; TAU-XR™; and TAU-TUBE™. The crash cushions compete with other vendors in the world market. These systems are generally sold through a distribution channel that is domiciled in particular geographic areas.

Specialty Barriers – The Company also offers specialty barrier products such as the SAB™, ArmorGuard™, PaveGuard™, and DR46™ portable barrier and/or barrier gate systems. These products offer portability and flexibility in setting up and modifying barriers in work areas and provide quick-opening, high-containment gates for use in median or roadside barriers. The gates are generally used to create openings in barrier walls of various types for both construction and incident management purposes. The DR46™ is an energy-absorbing barrier that can help protect motorcyclists from impacting guardrail posts, which is an area of focus by departments of transportation and government regulators for reducing the amount and severity of injuries.

Road Marking and Road Safety Equipment – The Company also offers preformed tape and a line of road safety accessory products. The preformed tape is used primarily in temporary applications such as markings for work zones, street crossings, and road center lines or boundaries. The road safety equipment consists of mostly plastic and rubber products used for delineation, slowing traffic, and signaling. The Company also manages an ISO 17025 certified testing laboratory that performs full-scale impact testing of highway safety products in accordance with the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (“NCHRP”) Report 350, the Manual for Assessing Safety Hardware (“MASH”), and the European Norms (“EN1317 Norms”) for these types of products. The NCHRP Report 350 and MASH guidelines are procedures required by the U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration (“FHWA”) for the safety performance evaluation of highway features. The EN1317 Norms are being used to qualify roadway safety products for a majority of the European markets.

Rail Products – The Company also designs, engineers and manufactures a line of products for the railroad industry. These products are designed to meet industry standards and include signals and lights, structures, foundations, junction boxes and signs.

Markets – The Company’s primary infrastructure market includes moveable concrete barriers, delineation systems, crash cushions, and similar protective equipment. The U.S. roadway infrastructure market includes projects such as new roadway construction, bridges, tunnels, maintenance and resurfacing, and development of technologies for relief of roadway congestion. Much of the U.S. highway infrastructure market is driven by federal and state government spending programs. For example, the U.S. government funds highway and road improvements through the Federal Highway Trust Fund Program. This program provides funding to improve the nation’s roadway system. Matching funding from the various states may be required as a condition of federal funding. In the long term, the Company believes that the federal program provides a solid platform for growth in the U.S. market, as it is generally acknowledged that additional funding will be required for infrastructure development and maintenance in the future.

The global market for the Company’s infrastructure products continues to be driven by population growth and the need for improved road safety. The international market differs from country to country. The standardization in performance requirements and acceptance criteria for highway safety devices adopted by the European Committee for Standardization has led to greater uniformity and a larger installation program. Prevention programs put in place in various countries to lower highway traffic fatalities have also led to greater demand. The Company distributes infrastructure products in Europe, South America, the Middle East, Australia and Asia. The Company expects to continue expanding in international markets as populations grow and markets become more established.

Competition – The Company competes in certain product lines with several manufacturers. The Company competes by striving to continuously improve its products through ongoing research and development activities. The Company

competes with certain products and companies in its crash cushion business, but has limited competition in its moveable barrier line. However, the Company’s barrier product does compete with traditional “safety-shaped” concrete barriers and other safety barriers.

Distribution Methods and Channels – The Company has dedicated production and sales operations in the United States, Italy and the Netherlands. Sales efforts consist of both direct sales and sales programs managed by the Company’s network of distributors and third-party representatives. The sales teams have responsibility for new business development and assisting distributors and dealers in soliciting large projects and new customers. The distributor traditionally has exclusive territories and is responsible for developing sales and providing service, including product maintenance, repair, and installation. The typical distributor sells an array of safety supplies, road signs, crash cushions, delineation equipment, and other highway products. Customers include departments of transportation, municipal transportation road agencies, roadway contractors, subcontractors, distributors, and resellers. Due to the project nature of the roadway construction and congestion management markets, the Company’s customer base changes from year to year. Due to the limited life of projects, it is rare that a single customer will account for a significant amount of revenues in consecutive years. The customer base also varies depending on the type of product sold. The Company’s moveable barrier products are typically sold to transportation agencies or the contractors or suppliers serving those agencies. In contrast, distributors account for a majority of crash cushion sales since those products have lower price points and tend to have shorter lead times.

GENERAL

Certain information generally applicable to both of the Company’s reportable segments is set forth below.

SEASONALITY

Irrigation equipment sales are seasonal by nature. Farmers generally order systems to be delivered and installed before the growing season. Shipments to customers located in Northern Hemisphere countries usually peak during the Company’s second and third fiscal quarters for the spring planting period. Sales of infrastructure products are traditionally higher during prime road construction seasons and lower in the winter. The primary construction season for Northern Hemisphere countries generally corresponds with the Company’s third and fourth fiscal quarters.

CUSTOMERS

In fiscal years 2026 and 2025, one customer within the Company's irrigation segment accounted for 12% and 13%, respectively, of consolidated revenues relating to a large irrigation project in the MENA region. In fiscal year 2024, no individual customer accounted for more than 10% of consolidated revenues.

ORDER BACKLOG

As of August 31, 2026, the Company had an order backlog of $102.5 million compared with $110.7 million as of 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 attributable to orders relating to a large irrigation project in the MENA region as of August 31, 2025 that were shipped during fiscal 2026. The Company’s backlog can fluctuate from period to period due to the seasonality, cyclicality, timing, and execution of contracts. Backlog typically represents long-term projects as well as short lead-time orders; therefore, it is generally not a good indication of the revenues to be realized in succeeding quarters.

RAW MATERIALS AND COMPONENTS

Raw materials used by the Company include coil steel, angle steel, plate steel, zinc, tires, gearboxes, concrete, rebar, fasteners, and electrical and hydraulic components (motors, switches, cable, valves, hose, and stators). While the Company has, on occasion, faced shortages of certain such materials, the Company believes it currently has ready access from assorted domestic and foreign suppliers to adequate supplies of raw materials and components.

CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

Capital expenditures for fiscal 2026, 2025, and 2024 were $40.2 million, $42.5 million, and $29.0 million, respectively. Capital expenditures for fiscal 2027 are expected to amount to approximately $40.0 million, including equipment replacement, productivity improvements, new product development and commercial growth investments. An increase over recent levels of capital expenditures relates to modernization and productivity improvements planned at certain manufacturing facilities. The Company’s management does maintain flexibility to modify the amount and timing of some of the planned expenditures in response to economic conditions.

PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, AND LICENSES

The Company relies on a variety of intellectual property laws, confidentiality procedures, and contractual provisions to protect its proprietary offerings and its brand.

The Company owns and, from time to time, licenses patents for many of its irrigation and infrastructure solutions, as well as cellular communication techniques, cathodic protection measurement methods, and data compression and transmission. The Company follows a policy of applying for patents on all significant patentable inventions in markets deemed appropriate. Although the Company believes it is important to follow a patent protection policy, the Company's business is not dependent, to any material extent, on any single patent or group of patents.

The Company’s Zimmatic™, Perrot™, Road Zipper™, The Road Zipper System™, Quickchange™ Moveable Barrier™, ABSORB 350™, ABSORB-M™, FieldNET™, FieldNET Advisor™, TowerWatchTM, TowerIQTM, Watertrend™, FieldWise™, Greenfield™, GrowSmart™, TAU™, Universal TAU-II™, TAU-II-R™, TAU-B_NR™, TAU-M™, TAU-TUBE™, TAU-XR™, CableGuard™, TESI™, SAB™, ArmorGuard™, PaveGuard™, DR46™, U-MAD™, Sabertooth™, RoadConnect™, ImpactAlert™, and other trademarks, service marks, domain names, and copyrights are registered or applied for in the major markets in which the Company sells its products.

HUMAN CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries have 1,083 employees as of August 31, 2026. None of the Company’s United States based employees are represented by a union. Certain of the Company’s non-U.S. employees are unionized due to local governmental regulations. Maintaining a sufficient number of skilled employees at its various manufacturing sites is a key focus of the Company’s human capital efforts. The Company believes it maintains a sufficient number of skilled employees by offering competitive wages, benefits and training and development programs.

The Company believes its commitment to empowering and developing its human capital resources is essential to becoming the innovation and market leader in its core businesses. Empowering the Company's personnel is one of its organizational priorities, highlighting three areas in particular: (1) workplace culture, (2) employee engagement and inclusion, and (3) employee health and safety.

Workplace Culture

The Company's culture is focused on the core values of safety, integrity, quality, collaboration, and creativity. The Company is guided by its global Anti-Discrimination and Equal Employment Policy which delineates its commitment to preventing any form of unlawful employee discrimination or harassment and its dedication to providing a workplace where all employees, customers, partners and investors are treated with courtesy, respect, and dignity. The Company is committed to building an inclusive workplace, guided by its Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

Employee Engagement and Inclusion

The Company has an annual evaluation process to measure and assess employee engagement. This focus on employee engagement aims to create and sustain employee empowerment, team collaboration, and support and service to the greater community.

Employee Health and Safety

The health and safety of the Company's employees is an integral part of everything the Company does. Personnel hold each other accountable to actively promote a safe and healthy workplace, and report any situations that may pose a health, safety or security risk. The Company uses the Lindsay Safety System to guide and develop its safety-based culture. The Lindsay Safety System is comprised of eight core elements:

The Company approaches safety by reviewing cultural change and engineering developments simultaneously. The Company also conducts job safety assessments, training and incident investigations. In addition, the Company recognizes and instills best practices in employee behavior, wherever practicable. Moreover, the Company creates policies and makes sure the appropriate infrastructure is in place and maintained. The Company's audit and inspection processes validate best-in-class performance.

EFFECT OF GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION

The Company is subject to numerous laws and government regulations, including those that govern environmental and occupational health and safety matters. The Company believes that its operations are substantially in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, and that it holds all necessary permits to operate its business in each jurisdiction in which its facilities are located. Laws and government regulations are subject to change and interpretation. In some cases, compliance with applicable laws and regulations may require the Company to make additional capital and operational expenditures. The Company, however, is not currently aware of any material expenditures required to comply with applicable laws or government regulations, other than the capital expenditures and ongoing monitoring costs relating to environmental remediation activities at its Lindsay, Nebraska plant that are more fully described in Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company accrues for the anticipated cost associated with compliance with laws and governmental regulations applicable to its business, including investigation and remediation costs at its Lindsay, Nebraska site, when its obligation to incur those costs is probable and can be reasonably estimated. Any revisions to these estimates could be material to the operating results of any fiscal quarter or fiscal year, however the Company does not expect future capital expenses relating to compliance with government regulations, including those for remediation of its Lindsay, Nebraska site, to have a material adverse effect on its earnings, liquidity, financial condition or competitive position.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT FOREIGN AND U.S. OPERATIONS

The Company’s primary production facilities are located in the United States. The Company has smaller production and sales operations in Brazil, France, Italy, China, Türkiye, and South Africa, as well as distribution and sales operations in the Netherlands, Egypt, Australia, and New Zealand. Where the Company exports products from the United States to international markets, the Company generally ships against prepayment, an irrevocable letter of credit confirmed by a banking institution or another secured means of payment, or with credit insurance from a third party. For sales within both U.S. and foreign jurisdictions, prepayments or other forms of security may be required before credit is granted, however most local sales are made based on payment terms after a full credit review has been performed. Most of the Company’s financial transactions are in U.S. dollars, although some export sales and sales from the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are conducted in other currencies. Approximately 35 and 34 percent of total consolidated Company revenues were conducted in currencies other than the U.S. dollar in fiscal 2026 and 2025, respectively. To reduce the uncertainty of foreign currency exchange rate movements on these sales and purchase commitments conducted in local currencies, the Company monitors its risk of foreign currency fluctuations and, at times, may enter into forward exchange or option contracts for transactions denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars.

In addition to the transactional foreign currency exposures mentioned above, the Company also has translation exposure resulting from translating the financial statements of its international subsidiaries into U.S. dollars. In order to reduce this translation exposure, the Company, at times, utilizes foreign currency forward contracts to hedge its net investment exposure in its foreign operations. For information on the Company’s foreign currency risks, see Item 7A of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

ITEM 1A — Risk Factors

The following are certain of the more significant risks that may affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to Business and Industry

Changing worldwide demand for food and biofuels could have an effect on the price of agricultural commodities and consequently the demand for irrigation equipment. Changing worldwide demand for farm outputs to meet the world’s growing food and biofuel demands, driven in part by government policies and an expanding global population, is likely to result in fluctuating agricultural commodity prices, which affect demand for irrigation equipment. The primary benefit of many of the Company’s irrigation products is to increase yields and the resulting revenue for farmers. As commodity prices decline, the breakeven point of incremental production is more difficult to achieve, reducing or eliminating the profit and return on investment from the purchase of the Company’s products. As a result, changes in commodity prices can significantly affect the Company’s sales levels.

A decline in oil prices or the overall demand for motor fuels, or changes in government policies regarding biofuels could also negatively affect the biofuels market and/or reduce government revenues of oil-producing countries that purchase or subsidize the purchase of irrigation equipment. Biofuels production is a significant source of grain demand in the U.S. and certain international markets. While ethanol blending levels are currently mandated within the U.S., potential mandate changes or price declines for ethanol could reduce the demand for grains. In addition, a number of ethanol producers in the U.S. are cooperatives partially owned by farmers. Reduced profit of ethanol production could reduce income for farmers which could, in turn, reduce the demand for irrigation equipment.

While climate change could shift global cropping practices and open new markets for irrigated agriculture, the changing short-term weather conditions or more prolonged climate change could adversely impact the Company’s business and operations. The Company’s irrigation revenues are highly dependent on the agricultural industry and weather conditions. Weather conditions, particularly leading up to the planting and early growing season, can significantly affect the purchasing decisions of consumers of irrigation equipment. An increased frequency or duration of extreme weather conditions, or other factors which may be the result of climate change, could adversely impact the Company's business and operations. For example, natural calamities such as regional floods, hurricanes or other storms, and droughts can have significant effects on seasonal irrigation demand. Drought conditions, which generally affect irrigation equipment demand positively over the long term, can adversely affect demand if water sources become unavailable or if governments impose water restriction policies to reduce overall water availability.

The Company’s irrigation revenues are cyclical and highly dependent upon the need for irrigated agricultural crop production which, in turn, depends upon many factors, including total worldwide crop production, the profitability of agricultural crop production, agricultural commodity prices, net farm income, availability of financing for farmers, governmental policies regarding the agricultural sector, water and energy conservation policies, the regularity of rainfall, and regional climate conditions. As farm income decreases, farmers may postpone capital expenditures or seek less expensive irrigation alternatives.

The extent of the effects of climate change, including any related compliance requirements, are uncertain but may adversely impact the Company’s operations through the availability and cost of raw materials, increased compliance costs, and increased costs to safeguard the Company’s facilities and assets from disruptions or damage.

The Company’s infrastructure revenues are highly dependent on government funding of transportation projects and subject to compliance with government regulations. The demand for the Company’s infrastructure products depends to a large degree on the amount of government spending authorized to improve road and highway systems. For example, the U.S. government funds highway and road improvements through the Federal Highway Trust Fund Program and matching funding from states may be required as a condition of federal funding. If highway funding is reduced or delayed, it may reduce demand for the Company’s infrastructure products.

In order to be eligible for government funding or reimbursement, the Company’s infrastructure products are generally required to meet certain standards as outlined by the various governments worldwide. The FHWA and state departments of transportation have implemented MASH standards which update and supersede NCHRP Report 350 standards for evaluating new road safety hardware devices. While infrastructure products previously accepted under NCHRP Report 350 criteria are not required to be retested under MASH standards, they generally are no longer eligible for federal reimbursement as the MASH standards have been implemented by FHWA and the states. The Company has incurred, and will continue to incur, research and development and testing expense to develop products to comply with MASH standards. Any reevaluation of the Company’s infrastructure products’ compliance with applicable standards, the implementation of new standards, and/or any delay in the Company’s development of additional infrastructure products that comply with new standards could have a significant adverse effect on the Company’s competitive position and on sales and profitability from its infrastructure product line.

Compliance with applicable environmental and health and safety regulations, standards, or expectations may require additional capital and operational expenditures. The Company is subject to numerous laws and government regulations, including those which govern environmental and occupational health and safety matters. The Company believes that its operations are substantially in compliance with all such applicable laws and regulations and that it holds all necessary permits to operate its business in each jurisdiction in which its facilities are located. Laws and government regulations applicable to the Company are subject to change and interpretation. The Company publishes an annual Corporate Impact Report, which includes information about the Company’s sustainability activities and may result in increased investor, media, and employee attention to such initiatives. Compliance with applicable laws and regulations and the pursuit of other sustainability-related objectives may require the Company to make additional capital and operational expenditures that may have a material adverse effect on its earnings, liquidity, financial condition or competitive position. In particular, the Company may incur costs in connection with the remediation of environmental contamination at its Lindsay, Nebraska site that exceed the amounts that the Company has accrued for this purpose as of the end of fiscal 2026, as more fully described in Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company’s revenues can be highly dependent on a limited number of key customers and projects. From time to time, the Company enters into large agreements, sometimes covering multiple years, with key customers, which can result in a significant concentration of revenues tied to such customers and/or certain geographies and projects. For example, in fiscal 2026, the Company entered into a multi-year supply agreement valued at approximately $80 million to provide Zimmatic irrigation systems and FieldNET remote management and scheduling technology for a key customer’s project in the MENA region. While securing and delivering on commitments of this magnitude demonstrates the competitiveness of the Company’s solutions and the Company’s ability to execute large-scale and complex projects, the Company’s dependence on a limited number of key customers or projects could adversely affect the Company’s results if any such customer or project owner (i) reduces, delays, or cancels orders; (ii) experiences financial difficulties or changes in funding priorities, (iii) alters project scope or timing due to regulatory, geopolitical, or economic factors, or (iv) chooses to pursue alternative suppliers or technologies. Any concentration of the Company’s customer base may also enable key customers to demand pricing and other terms unfavorable to the Company, which could negatively affect the Company’s gross margin and profitability. Opportunities in the MENA region and other geographies in which key customers or projects are located can also be particularly susceptible to disruption from changing socioeconomic conditions as well as terrorism, sanctions, war, outbreaks and similar incidents. If revenues from a key customer or project are not realized as expected or if a large project is not subsequently followed by another similarly sized opportunity, the Company’s financial performance could be negatively affected. Further, the concentration of resources and management attention on developing and strengthening relationships with key customers and on securing and delivering significant projects may divert resources from other opportunities, which could also have an adverse effect on the Company’s reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.

The Company’s international sales efforts and profit margins are affected by international trade barriers and subject the Company to additional compliance obligations. The Company’s international sales efforts and profit margins are affected by international trade barriers, including governmental policies on tariffs, taxes, import or export licensing requirements and trade sanctions. In recent years, certain of the components required for the manufacture of the Company's products have been or may be impacted by tariffs. Other international trade disputes, changes to or termination of existing international trade agreements, treaties or policies (e.g. the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement), or imposition of trade protection measures by certain countries in favor of their local producers or competing products could increase the Company's costs, reduce the Company's competitiveness, and have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

In addition, the Company’s international sales efforts must also comply with anti-corruption laws like the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. These anti-corruption laws generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries (including, in the Company’s case, dealers and sales representatives) from making improper payments or providing anything of value to improperly influence government officials or certain private individuals for the purpose of obtaining or retaining a business advantage. As part of the Company’s irrigation and infrastructure sales efforts, the Company promotes and sells products to governmental entities and state-owned or state-backed business enterprises, the employees and representatives of which may be considered government officials for purposes of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Further, some of the countries in which the Company does business lack fully developed legal systems and are perceived to have elevated levels of corruption. Although the Company has compliance and training programs in place designed to reduce the likelihood of potential violations of such laws, violations of these laws or other compliance requirements could occur and result in criminal or civil sanctions and have an adverse effect on the Company’s reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to Legal Proceedings

The Company is exposed to risks from legal proceedings. From time to time, the Company may be involved in various legal proceedings and other various claims that arise in the ordinary course of its business, which may include commercial, employment, product liability, tort, and other litigation. Current and future litigation, governmental proceedings and investigations, audits, indemnification claims or other claims that the Company faces may result in substantial costs and expenses and significantly divert the attention of its management regardless of the outcome. In addition, these matters could lead to increased costs or interruptions of its normal business operations. Litigation, governmental proceedings and investigations, audits, indemnification claims or other claims involve uncertainties and the eventual outcome of any such matter could adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations or cash flows. For a summary of the Company’s infrastructure products litigation, see Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The frequency and magnitude of liability claims and the related expenses could lower profitability and increase business risk. The nature of the Company’s business subjects the Company to potential liability for claims alleging property damage and personal injury or death arising from the use of or exposure to its products, especially infrastructure products that are installed along roadways. While the Company believes it maintains adequate insurance, an unusually large liability claim or a string of claims could potentially exceed the Company’s available insurance coverage. In addition, the availability of, and the Company’s ability to collect on, insurance coverage can be subject to factors beyond the Company’s control. For example, any accident, incident, or lawsuit involving the Company, its products specifically, or the industries in which the Company operates generally, even if the Company is fully insured, contractually indemnified, or not held to be liable, could significantly affect the cost and availability of insurance to the Company in the future.

If any of the Company’s third-party insurers fail, cancel, or refuse coverage, or otherwise are unable to provide the Company with adequate insurance coverage, then the Company’s overall risk exposure and operational expenses would increase and the management of the Company’s business operations would be disrupted.

Further, as insurance policies expire, increased premiums for renewed or new coverage, if such coverage can be secured, may increase the Company’s insurance expense and/or require that the Company increase its self-insured retention or deductibles. The Company maintains primary coverage and excess coverage policies. If the number of claims or the dollar amounts of any such claims rise in any policy year, the Company could suffer additional costs associated with accessing its excess coverage policies. Also, an increase in the loss amounts attributable to such claims could expose the Company to uninsured damages if the Company was unable or elected not to insure against certain claims because of increased premiums or other reasons.

The Company’s infrastructure products are installed along roadways in inherently dangerous applications. Accidents involving the Company’s infrastructure products could reduce demand for such products and expose the Company to significant damages and reputational harm. The Company is currently defending a number of product liability lawsuits involving the Company’s X-Lite® end terminal. Further, while the U.S. Department of Justice, Civil Division, and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of New York successfully obtained the 2023 dismissal of a federal civil False Claims Act lawsuit filed against the Company by an individual relator after the United States conducted a yearslong investigation of the Company’s X-Lite end terminal and determined that the individual relator’s allegations “lack[ed] merit” and did “not warrant the continued expenditure of resources to pursue or monitor the action,” the same individual relator has subsequently filed a limited number of state-level lawsuits in which he makes substantially similar allegations under state false claims or fraud laws as more fully described in Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Company's consolidated financial statements. While the Company’s infrastructure products are designed to meet all applicable standards in effect in the markets in which such products are offered, the risk of product liability claims, demands for reimbursement or compensatory payments, and associated adverse publicity is inherent in the development, manufacturing, marketing, and sale of such products, including end terminals and crash cushions that are ultimately installed along roadways. In addition to this inherent risk, a sizable False Claims Act judgment against a competitor (which was reversed on appeal) brought significant attention to the infrastructure products industry and may be a factor leading to additional lawsuits, demands, and investigations being pursued against the Company and others in the industry.

An actual or perceived issue with the Company’s infrastructure products can lead to a decline in demand for such products, the removal of such products from qualified products lists used by government customers in their purchasing decisions, the removal and replacement of such products from roadways by government customers and demands for reimbursement or compensatory payments for such actions, adverse publicity, claims or litigation, and/or the diversion of management’s attention, which could materially and adversely affect the Company’s reputation, business, financial condition, and results of operations. While infrastructure product selection, assembly, installation, operation, repair, and maintenance are the responsibilities of dealers, distributors, customers, and/or state departments of transportation, the Company may nevertheless also be subjected to claims, litigation, or demands for reimbursement or compensatory payments in connection with a third party’s alleged failure to satisfactorily discharge such responsibilities, including but not limited to claims associated with personal injuries, property damage, and death. Likewise, improper assembly, installation, operation, repair, or maintenance of the Company’s infrastructure products may cause such infrastructure products to fail to meet certain performance standards, which could lead to similar consequences as an actual or perceived issue with the infrastructure products themselves.

Although the Company currently maintains insurance against product-related claims or litigation, the Company could be exposed to significant losses arising from claims involving infrastructure products if the Company’s insurance does not cover all associated liabilities or if coverage in the future becomes unobtainable on commercially reasonable terms.

General Risks

The Company’s profitability may be negatively affected by changes in the availability and price of certain parts, components, and raw materials. The Company requires access to various parts, components, and raw materials at competitive prices in order to manufacture its products. Changes in the availability and price of these parts, components, and raw materials (including steel and zinc), which have changed significantly and rapidly at times and are affected by factors like demand, tariffs, freight costs, and outbreaks, can significantly increase the costs of production. Due to price competition in the market for irrigation equipment and certain infrastructure products, the Company may not be able to recoup increases in these costs through price increases for its products, which would result in reduced profitability. Whether increased operating costs can be passed through to the customer depends on a number of factors, including farm income and the price of competing products. Further, the Company relies on a limited number of suppliers for certain raw materials, parts and components in the manufacturing process. Disruptions or delays in supply or significant price increases from these suppliers could adversely affect the Company’s operations and profitability. Such disruptions, terminations or cost increases could result in cost inefficiencies, delayed sales or reduced sales.

The Company’s international sales are highly dependent on foreign market conditions. International revenues are primarily generated from Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Western and Eastern Europe, Mexico, the Middle East, Africa, China, and Central and South America. In addition to risks relating to general economic and potential instability in these countries, a number of countries are particularly susceptible to disruption from changing socioeconomic conditions as well as terrorism, sanctions, war, outbreaks, and similar incidents. Since fiscal 2022, sales to Russia and Belarus have been paused indefinitely due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Prior to that time,

sales with Russian, Ukrainian, and Belarusian customers had historically represented less than 5 percent of consolidated revenues. Commercial activities in Russia and Belarus remain on hold while hostile actions against Ukraine continue. The collectability of international receivables can also be difficult to estimate, particularly in areas of political instability or with governments with which the Company has limited experience or where there is a lack of transparency as to the current credit condition.

The Company’s international sales and profit margins are subject to currency exchange risk. The Company’s international sales involve some level of export from the U.S., either of components or completed products. Policies and geopolitical events affecting exchange rates could adversely affect the international flow of agricultural and other commodities, which can cause a corresponding downturn in the demand for agricultural equipment in many areas of the world. Further, any strengthening of the U.S. dollar or any other currency of a country in which the Company manufactures its products (e.g. the Euro, the Brazilian real, the South African rand, the Turkish lira, and the Chinese renminbi) and/or any weakening of local currencies can increase the cost of the Company’s products in its foreign markets. Irrespective of any effect on the overall demand for agricultural equipment, the effect of these changes can make the Company’s products less competitive relative to local producing competitors and, in extreme cases, can result in the Company’s products not being cost-effective for customers. As a result, the Company’s international sales and profit margins could decline.

Changes in interest rates could reduce demand for the Company’s products. Rising interest rates could have a dampening effect on overall economic activity and/or the financial condition of the Company’s customers, either or both of which could negatively affect customer demand for the Company’s products and customers’ ability to repay obligations to the Company. An increase in interest rates could also make it more difficult for customers to cost-effectively fund the purchase of new equipment, which could adversely affect the Company’s sales.

The Company’s consolidated financial results are reported in U.S. dollars while certain assets and other reported items are denominated in the currencies of other countries, creating currency translation risk. The reporting currency for the Company’s consolidated financial statements is the U.S. dollar. Certain of the Company’s assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues are denominated in other countries’ currencies. Those assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues are translated into U.S. dollars at the applicable exchange rates to prepare the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Therefore, increases or decreases in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and those other currencies affect the value of those items as reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Substantial fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar compared to other currencies could have a significant effect on the Company’s results.

Security breaches and other disruptions to the Company’s information technology infrastructure could interfere with its operations and could compromise the Company’s and its customers’ and suppliers’ information, exposing the Company to liability that could cause its business and reputation to suffer. In the ordinary course of business, the Company relies upon information technology networks and systems to process, transmit and store electronic information, and to manage or support a variety of business functions, including supply chain, manufacturing, distribution, invoicing and collection of payments. The Company uses information technology systems to record, process and summarize financial information and results of operations for internal reporting purposes and to comply with regulatory financial reporting, legal and tax requirements. Additionally, the Company collects and stores sensitive data, including intellectual property, proprietary business information and the proprietary business information of customers and suppliers, as well as personally identifiable information of customers and employees, in data centers and on information technology networks. The secure operation of these networks and the processing and maintenance of this information is critical to the Company’s business operations and strategy. Despite security measures and business continuity plans, the Company’s information technology networks and infrastructure may be vulnerable to damage, disruptions or shutdowns due to, among other reasons, attacks by hackers or breaches due to employee error or malfeasance or other disruptions during the process of upgrading or replacing computer software or hardware, power outages, computer viruses, telecommunication or utility failures or natural disasters or other catastrophic events. The occurrence of any of these events could compromise the Company’s networks, and the information stored there could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability or regulatory penalties under laws protecting the privacy of personal information, disrupt operations, and damage the Company’s reputation, which could adversely affect the Company’s business.

The use of artificial intelligence presents risks and challenges that may adversely impact our business and operating results. We are evaluating, and may increasingly rely on, generative artificial intelligence and machine

learning technologies (together, “AI”) to automate tasks, support decision-making and make our internal processes more efficient. AI is still an emerging technology, and using it brings risks that we may not be able to fully predict or control. AI tools can produce content or analysis that is wrong, incomplete or biased. Because AI tools often handle large amounts of data, they may also increase our exposure to cybersecurity incidents, unauthorized disclosure of confidential or personal information, and breaches of privacy and data protection laws. The realization of any risks involved in the Company's use or application of AI could adversely affect the Company's business.

The following are the Company’s significant properties.

ITEM 3 — Legal Proceedings

In the ordinary course of its business operations, the Company is involved, from time to time, in commercial litigation, product liability litigation, tort litigation, employment disputes, administrative proceedings, business disputes, and other legal proceedings. No such current proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, are expected to have a material effect on the business or financial condition of the Company, other than the specific environmental remediation matters which are disclosed as part of Note 14, Commitments and Contingencies, to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Any revisions to the estimates accrued for environmental remediation could be material to the operating results of any fiscal quarter or fiscal year, however the Company does not expect such additional expenses would have a material adverse effect on its liquidity or financial condition.

Company Overview

The Company manufactures and markets center pivot, lateral move, and hose reel irrigation systems. The Company also produces and markets irrigation controls, chemical injection systems, remote monitoring and irrigation scheduling systems. These products are used by farmers to increase or stabilize crop production while conserving water, energy, and labor. Through its acquisitions and third-party commercial arrangements, the Company has been able to enhance its capabilities in providing innovative, turn-key solutions to customers through the integration of designs, controls, and pump stations. The Company sells its irrigation products primarily to a world-wide independent dealer network, who resell to their customers, the farmers. The Company’s irrigation production facilities are located in the United States, Brazil, Türkiye, France, China and South Africa, and also has distribution and sales operations in the Netherlands, Egypt, Australia, and New Zealand. The Company also manufactures and markets, through distributors and direct sales to customers, various infrastructure products, including moveable barrier systems for traffic lane management, crash cushions, preformed reflective pavement tapes, and other road safety devices, through its production facilities in the United States and Italy, and has produced road safety products in irrigation manufacturing facilities in China, Brazil and Türkiye. In addition, the Company’s infrastructure segment produces railroad signals and structures.

For the business overall, the global, long-term drivers of population growth, water conservation and environmental sustainability, the need for increased food production, and the need for safer, more efficient transportation solutions remain positive. Key factors which impact demand for the Company’s irrigation products include total worldwide agricultural crop production, the profitability of agricultural crop production, agricultural commodity prices, net farm income, availability of financing for farmers, governmental policies regarding the agricultural sector, water and energy conservation policies, the regularity of rainfall, regional climate conditions, food security concerns and foreign currency exchange rates. A key factor which impacts demand for the Company’s infrastructure products is the amount of spending authorized by governments to improve road and highway systems. Much of the U.S. highway infrastructure market is driven by government spending programs. For example, the U.S. government funds highway and road improvements through the Federal Highway Trust Fund Program. This program provides funding to improve the nation’s roadway system. In November 2021, the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act ("IIJA") was enacted and included a five-year reauthorization of the Fixing America's Surface Transportation ("FAST") Act. This legislation also introduced $110 billion in incremental federal funding planned for roads, bridges, and other transportation projects, which supports demand for the Company's transportation safety products as states utilize these funds in construction projects. The federal programs under the IIJA are scheduled to run through December 2026.

The Company continues to have an ongoing, structured, acquisition process that it expects to generate additional growth opportunities throughout the world and add to its irrigation and infrastructure capabilities. The Company is committed to achieving earnings growth by global market expansion, improvements in margins, and strategic acquisitions.

Critical Accounting Policies

Management has evaluated the Company’s accounting policies and determined that none involve estimates or assumptions that are considered critical under Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") guidance. However, the Company considers its revenue recognition policy to be critical to understanding its financial condition and results of operations due to the significance of revenue to its business and the judgment involved in applying the principles of Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606 as follows:

Revenue Recognition

The Company determines the appropriate revenue recognition for its contracts by analyzing the type, terms and conditions of each contract or arrangement with a customer. Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies the performance obligation by transferring control over goods or services to a customer. The amount of revenue recognized is measured as the consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services pursuant to a contract with the customer. In both of its segments, the vast majority of the Company's revenues relate to the sale of physical goods, where control generally transfers to the customer based on shipping terms. In some circumstances, contracts include multiple performance obligations where revenue is allocated and recognized individually for each performance obligation. The standalone selling price for individual performance obligations is based on observable standalone prices or in other cases, management's estimate of the standalone selling price.

Financial Overview and Outlook

Operating revenues in fiscal 2026 were $635.9 million, a 6 percent decrease compared to $676.4 million in the prior year. Irrigation segment revenues decreased 5 percent to $541.5 million and infrastructure segment revenues decreased 13 percent to $94.4 million. Net earnings for fiscal 2026 decreased 25 percent to $55.7 million or $5.33 per diluted share compared with $74.1 million or $6.78 per diluted share in the prior fiscal year. The decrease in net earnings resulted from the impact of lower operating income in both segments and a higher effective income tax rate compared to the prior fiscal year, both of which were partially offset by higher other income compared to the prior year.

The primary drivers for the Company’s irrigation segment are the need for irrigated agricultural crop production, which is tied to population growth and the attendant need for expanded food production, and the need to use water resources more efficiently. These drivers are affected by a number of factors, including the following:

While the USDA's forecasted 2026 total net farm income is down slightly compared to 2025, an increase in forecasted cash receipts in 2026 is driven by higher government support payments and offset by increased costs. While the outlook for domestic commodity prices has improved in the weeks subsequent to the Company's fiscal year-end, elevated input costs continue to temper demand for irrigation equipment.

The most significant opportunities for growth in irrigation sales over the next several years continue to be in international markets where irrigation use is less developed and demand is driven not only by commodity prices and net farm income, but also by food security, water scarcity and population growth. While international irrigation markets remain active with opportunities for further development and expansion, regional political and economic factors, including armed conflict, currency conditions and other factors can create a challenging environment. Additionally, international results are influenced by large project sales which tend to fluctuate and can be difficult to forecast accurately. While deliveries in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region have not yet been significantly delayed or impacted by the current Iran conflict in the Middle East, the Company continues to monitor the implications on its business and acknowledges that expected project timing in the region could change as the conflict evolves. Additionally, the broader economic impact of the conflict on the Company’s supply chain and customers is uncertain as freight and other input costs have increased.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company began shipment under a multi-year supply agreement to provide irrigation systems and remote management and scheduling technology for a large project in the MENA region. The project was valued at over $100 million in revenue, with equipment deliveries occurring throughout fiscal 2025 and completing in the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Additionally, in December 2025, the Company announced a new supply agreement to provide irrigation systems and remote management and scheduling technology for a new large project in the MENA region. The Company began recognizing revenue on this project, valued at more than $80 million in revenue, in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, with approximately $70 million of the total contract revenue being recognized in the current fiscal year.

The infrastructure business continues to be driven by the Company's transportation safety products, the demand for which largely depends on government spending for road construction and improvements. The enactment of the IIJA in November 2021 introduced $110 billion in incremental federal funding for roads, bridges, and other transportation projects, which the Company believes has supported demand for its transportation safety products as states utilize these funds in construction projects. The federal programs under IIJA are scheduled to run through December 2026.

As of August 31, 2026, the Company had an order backlog of $102.5 million compared with $110.7 million at 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 project in the MENA region. The Company’s backlog can fluctuate from period to period due to the seasonality, cyclicality, timing, and execution of contracts. Backlog typically represents long-term projects as well as short lead-time orders; therefore, it is generally not a good indication of the revenues to be realized in succeeding quarters.

Results of Operations

The following “Fiscal 2026 Compared to Fiscal 2025” section presents an analysis of the Company’s consolidated operating results displayed in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings and should be read together with the information in Note 17, Business Segments, to the consolidated financial statements. A discussion regarding our financial condition and results of operations for fiscal 2025 compared to fiscal 2024 can be found in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Item 7 of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on October 23, 2025, which is available free of charge on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and the Company’s website at www.lindsay.com under the tab “Investor Relations – Filings & Reports – SEC Filings.”

Fiscal 2026 Compared to Fiscal 2025

The following table provides highlights for fiscal 2026 compared with fiscal 2025:

Revenues

Operating revenues in fiscal 2026 were $635.9 million, a decrease of 6 percent or $40.5 million, compared to $676.4 million in fiscal 2025. Irrigation segment revenues of $541.5 million decreased $26.5 million, or 5 percent, compared to the prior fiscal year primarily due to lower project sales in the MENA region and lower sales volume in North America, Brazil and other parts of South America. Infrastructure revenues of $94.4 million decreased $14.0 million, or 13 percent, compared to the prior fiscal year. The irrigation segment provided 85 percent of Company revenue in fiscal 2026 as compared to 84 percent in fiscal 2025.

North America irrigation revenues in fiscal 2026 were $262.1 million, a decrease of 4 percent or $11.7 million, from $273.8 million in fiscal 2025. The decrease resulted primarily from lower unit sales volume and was partially offset by slightly higher average selling prices compared to the prior year. Although commodity prices showed signs of improvement subsequent to the Company's fiscal year, demand for irrigation equipment will likely remain tempered until the long-term outlook for commodity prices and farm income improves.

International irrigation revenues in fiscal 2026 were $279.3 million, a decrease of 5 percent or $14.8 million, from $294.2 million in fiscal 2025. The decrease resulted primarily from lower sales volumes in Brazil, which were partially offset by growth in other regions. In Brazil, limited available credit and elevated interest rates continue to limit farmers' ability to invest in capital equipment. These decreases were partially offset by the favorable effects of foreign currency translation of approximately $12.1 million compared to the prior fiscal year.

Infrastructure segment revenues in fiscal 2026 were $94.4 million, a decrease of $14.0 million, or 13 percent, from $108.4 million in fiscal 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by lower Road Zipper System project revenues, as the prior year included a $20 million project that did not repeat. This decrease was partially offset by higher sales of road safety products in the current year.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was $183.8 million for fiscal 2026, a decrease of $27.0 million, or 13 percent, compared to $210.8 million for fiscal 2025. The decrease in gross profit resulted primarily from lower revenues in both irrigation and infrastructure. Gross margin was 28.9 percent of sales for fiscal 2026 compared to 31.2 percent of sales for fiscal 2025. Lower irrigation gross margin resulted primarily from higher input costs and fixed cost deleverage on lower unit sales volumes. Infrastructure gross margin also decreased due to the $20 million project in fiscal 2025 that did not repeat in fiscal 2026, resulting in an unfavorable impact on gross margin.

Operating Expenses

The Company’s operating expenses of $116.9 million for fiscal 2026 decreased $5.8 million, or 5 percent, compared to fiscal 2025 operating expenses of $122.7 million. The decrease was driven primarily by lower incentive compensation expenses.

Other Income, net

Other income amounted to $8.4 million in fiscal 2026 compared to $6.5 million in fiscal 2025. The increase in other income resulted primarily from an overall increase of $4.0 million in net interest income, which was partially offset by foreign currency losses of $2.3 million compared to the prior year.

Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $19.7 million and $20.5 million for fiscal 2026 and 2025, respectively. The effective tax rate was 26.1 percent and 21.7 percent for fiscal 2026 and 2025, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate was driven by an unfavorable impact of withholding tax associated with cash repatriation and a less favorable jurisdictional earnings mix compared to the prior year.

Net Earnings

Net earnings for fiscal 2026 were $55.7 million, or $5.33 per diluted share, a decrease of 25 percent, compared to $74.1 million, or $6.78 per diluted share, for fiscal 2025.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents totaled $189.8 million at August 31, 2026 compared with cash and cash equivalents of $250.6 million at August 31, 2025. The decrease resulted from the $139.0 million of total cash used in financing and investing activities, namely share repurchases and capital expenditures, exceeding cash generated from operating activities. The Company requires cash for financing its receivables and inventories, paying operating expenses and capital expenditures, and for dividends and share repurchases. The Company meets its liquidity needs and finances its capital expenditures from its available cash and funds provided by operations along with borrowings under the credit arrangements that are described below. In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts and commitments which obligate the Company to make future payments. The Company does not have any additional off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. The Company believes its current cash resources, projected operating cash flow, and remaining capacity under its continuing bank lines of credit are sufficient to cover all of its expected working capital needs, planned capital expenditures and dividends. The Company may require additional borrowings to fund potential acquisitions in the future.

The Company’s total cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries amounted to $124.2 million and $97.4 million as of August 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company does not consider its earnings in foreign subsidiaries to be permanently reinvested and accrues applicable taxes on its foreign subsidiaries' earnings. The Company does not expect the repatriation of these funds, and any applicable taxes, to have a significant impact on the Company’s overall liquidity.

Net working capital was $321.8 million at August 31, 2026 as compared with $389.2 million at August 31, 2025. Cash flows provided by operating activities totaled $74.9 million during the year ended August 31, 2026 compared to $132.9 million provided by operating activities during the prior fiscal year. The current year was unfavorably impacted by lower net earnings and negative changes in working capital compared to the prior year.

Cash flows used in investing activities totaled $42.8 million during the year ended August 31, 2026 compared to $48.6 million during the prior fiscal year. Purchases of property, plant, and equipment amounted to $40.2 million in the current fiscal year compared to $42.5 million in the prior fiscal year.

Cash flows used in financing activities totaled $96.2 million during the year ended August 31, 2026 compared to $26.9 million during the prior fiscal year. During the current fiscal year, the Company repurchased $80.7 million of common stock compared to $11.5 million in the prior fiscal year.

Capital Allocation Plan

The Company’s capital allocation plan is to continue investing in revenue and earnings growth, combined with a defined process for enhancing returns to stockholders. Priorities for the use of cash under the Company’s capital allocation plan include:

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures for fiscal 2027 are expected to amount to approximately $40 million, including equipment replacement, productivity improvements, new product development and commercial growth investments. The final cash flows related to the modernization and productivity improvements planned at certain manufacturing facilities are anticipated to occur in the first half of the Company's fiscal 2027. The Company’s management does maintain flexibility to modify the amount and timing of some of the planned expenditures in response to economic conditions.

Dividends

In fiscal 2026, the Company paid cash dividends of $1.49 per common share or $15.4 million to stockholders as compared to $1.45 per common share or $15.7 million to stockholders in fiscal 2025.

Share Repurchases

The Company’s Board of Directors previously authorized a share repurchase program of up to $250.0 million of common stock with no expiration date. Under the program, shares could be repurchased in privately negotiated and/or open market transactions as well as under formalized trading plans in accordance with the guidelines specified under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In November 2025, the Company's Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program of up to $150.0 million of the Company's outstanding common stock. The Company repurchased $80.7 million and $11.5 million of common shares during the year ended August 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The share repurchases completed in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 depleted the previous $250.0 million share repurchase authorization. The remaining amount available under the repurchase program was $100.0 million as of August 31, 2026.

Long-Term Borrowing Facilities

Senior Notes. The Company has outstanding $115.0 million in aggregate principal amount of unsecured Senior Notes, Series A (the “Senior Notes”). The entire principal of the Senior Notes is due and payable on February 19, 2030. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable semi-annually at a fixed annual rate of 3.82 percent. Borrowings under the

Senior Notes are unsecured. The Company used the proceeds of the sale of the Senior Notes for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions and dividends.

Revolving Credit Facility. The Company has outstanding a $50.0 million unsecured Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”) expiring August 26, 2030. The Company intends to use borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility for working capital purposes and to fund future acquisitions. At August 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. The amount of borrowings available at any time under the Revolving Credit Facility is reduced by the amount of standby letters of credit issued by Wells Fargo then outstanding. At August 31, 2026, the Company had the ability to borrow up to $50.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility may be increased by up to an additional $50.0 million at any time, subject to additional commitment approval. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a margin of between 100 and 210 basis points depending on the Company’s leverage ratio then in effect (which resulted in a variable rate of 5.03 percent at August 31, 2026), subject to adjustment as set forth in the loan documents for the Revolving Credit Facility. Interest is paid on a monthly to quarterly basis depending on loan type. The Company currently pays an annual commitment fee on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility. The fee is between 0.125 percent and 0.2 percent (0.125 percent at August 31, 2026) on the unused balance depending on the Company’s leverage ratio then in effect.

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility have equal priority with borrowings under the Company’s Senior Notes. Each of the credit arrangements described above includes certain covenants relating primarily to the Company’s financial condition. These financial covenants include a funded debt to EBITDA leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio. In the event that the loan documents for the Revolving Credit Facility were to require the Company to comply with any financial covenant that is not already included or is more restrictive than what is already included in the arrangement governing the Senior Notes, then such covenant shall be deemed incorporated by reference into the Senior Notes for the benefit of the holders of the Senior Notes. Upon the occurrence of any event of default of these covenants, including a change in control of the Company, all amounts outstanding thereunder may be declared to be immediately due and payable. At August 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company was in compliance with all financial loan covenants contained in its credit arrangements in place as of each of those dates.

ITEM 7A — Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Company uses certain financial derivatives to mitigate its exposure to volatility in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company uses these derivative instruments to hedge exposures in the ordinary course of business and does not invest in derivative instruments for speculative purposes. The credit risk under these interest rate and foreign currency agreements is not considered to be significant. The Company attempts to manage market and credit risks associated with its derivative instruments by establishing and monitoring limits as to the types and degree of risk that may be undertaken, and by entering into transactions with counterparties that have investment grade credit ratings. As of August 31, 2026, the Company’s derivative counterparties had an investment grade credit rating.

The Company has manufacturing operations in the United States, Brazil, France, Italy, China, Türkiye, and South Africa. The Company has sold products throughout the world and purchases certain of its components from third-party international suppliers. Export sales made from the United States are principally U.S. dollar denominated. At times, export sales may be denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar. A majority of the Company’s revenue generated from operations outside the United States is denominated in local currency. Accordingly, these sales are not typically subject to significant foreign currency transaction risk. The Company’s most significant transactional foreign currency exposures are the Euro, the Brazilian real, the South African rand, the Turkish lira, and the Chinese renminbi in relation to the U.S. dollar. Fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies create exposures, which can adversely affect the Company’s results of operations. Based on the consolidated statement of earnings for the year ended August 31, 2026, the Company estimates the potential decrease in operating income from a ten percent adverse change in the underlying exchange rates, in U.S. dollar terms, would be approximately $2.4 million.

In order to reduce exposures related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company, at times, may enter into forward exchanges, option contracts, or cross currency swaps for transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency for certain of its operations. This activity primarily relates to economically hedging against foreign currency risk in purchasing inventory, sales of finished goods, intercompany transactions and future settlement of foreign denominated assets and liabilities. At August 31, 2026, the Company had an outstanding foreign currency forward contract to sell a notional amount of 91.1 million South African rand at fixed prices to settle during the next fiscal quarter.

ITEM 8 — Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
Lindsay Corporation:

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Lindsay Corporation and subsidiaries (the Company) as of August 31, 2026 and 2025, the related consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended August 31, 2026, and the related notes and financial statement schedule (collectively, the consolidated financial statements). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of August 31, 2026 and 2025, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended August 31, 2026, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2026, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and our report dated October 22, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of a critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Sufficiency of audit evidence over operating revenues

As discussed in Note 3 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements, revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies the performance obligation by transferring control over goods or services to a customer. The Company recorded $635.9 million of operating revenues for the year ended August 31, 2026.

We identified the evaluation of the sufficiency of audit evidence over operating revenues as a critical audit matter. Subjective auditor judgment was required to evaluate the sufficiency of audit evidence due to the dispersion of the Company’s operating revenues across multiple locations. This included determining the Company locations at which procedures were performed and the supervision and review of procedures performed at those locations.

The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We applied auditor judgment to determine the nature and extent of procedures to be performed over operating revenues, including the determination of the Company locations at which those procedures were to be performed. At each Company location where procedures were performed, we evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the operating revenues process, including controls over the accurate recording of revenue. At each location where procedures were performed, we selected a sample of operating revenue transactions and assessed the recorded operating revenues by comparing the amounts recognized for consistency with underlying documentation, including contracts with customers and shipping documentation. We evaluated the sufficiency of audit evidence obtained over operating revenues by assessing the results of procedures performed, including the appropriateness of the nature and extent of audit effort.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2001.
