LINDSAY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and do not include all of the disclosures normally required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) as contained in Lindsay Corporation’s (the “Company”) Annual Report on Form 10-K. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2020.

In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of trends or results expected by the Company for a full year. The condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared using U.S. GAAP. These principles require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Recent Accounting Guidance Adopted

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. The standard replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses on instruments within its scope, including trade receivables. This update is intended to provide financial statement users with more decision-useful information about the expected credit losses. The Company adopted this in the first quarter of the Company’s fiscal 2021. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which eliminates the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill; rather, an entity will measure its goodwill impairment by the amount the carrying value exceeds the fair value of a reporting unit. The Company adopted this in the first quarter of the Company’s fiscal 2021. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Further disaggregation of revenue is disclosed in the Note 13 – Industry Segment Information.

For contracts with an initial length longer than twelve months, the unsatisfied performance obligations were $ i 6.8 million at February 28, 2021.

Contract Balances

Contract assets arise when recorded revenue for a contract exceeds the amounts billed under the terms of such contract. Contract liabilities arise when billed amounts exceed revenue recorded. Amounts are billable to customers upon various measures of performance, including achievement of certain milestones and completion of specified units of completion of the contract. At February 28, 2021, February 29, 2020, and August 31, 2020, contract assets amounted to $ i 1.2 million, $ i 0.9 million, and $ i 0.9 million, respectively. These amounts are included within other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Contract liabilities include advance payments from customers and billings in excess of delivery of performance obligations. At February 28, 2021, February 29, 2020, and August 31, 2020, contract liabilities amounted to $ i 21.3 million, $ i 13.4 million, and $ i 19.6 million, respectively. Contract liabilities are included within other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the Company’s six months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29 2020, the Company recognized $ i 15.4 million and $ i 12.6 million of revenue that were included in the liabilities as of August 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The revenue recognized was due to applying advance payments received for the performance obligations completed during the quarter.

Note 3 – Net Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated on the basis of weighted average outstanding common shares. Diluted earnings per share is calculated on the basis of basic weighted average outstanding common shares adjusted for the dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock unit awards and other dilutive securities.

Note 4 – Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $ i 2.7 million and $ i 1.4 million for the three months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, respectively, and recorded income tax expense of $ i 2.5 million and $ i 4.3 million for the six months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, respectively.

It is the Company’s policy to report income tax expense for interim periods using an estimated annual effective income tax rate. The estimated annual effective income tax rate was i 23.7 percent and i 23.5 percent for the six months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, respectively.

The tax effects of significant or unusual items are not considered in the estimated annual effective income tax rate. The tax effects of such discrete events are recognized in the interim period in which the events occur. The Company recorded discrete items resulting in an income tax benefit of $ i 2.6 million for the six months ended February 28, 2021, which includes a benefit of $ i 1.7 million related to the release of a valuation allowance primarily related to net operating loss carryforwards in a foreign jurisdiction that are now expected to be realizable. The tax effects of discrete items did i not have a significant impact on income tax expense for the six months ended February 29, 2020.

Table of Contents

The Company’s investment in marketable securities consists of United States treasury bonds and investment grade corporate bonds. The marketable securities are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value with the change in unrealized gains and losses reported as a separate component on the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) until realized. The Company determines fair value using data points that are observable, such as quoted prices and interest rates. The amortized cost of the investments approximates fair value. Investment income is recorded within other (expense) income on the condensed consolidated statements of earnings. As of February 28, 2021, approximately i 65% of the Company’s marketable securities investments mature within one year and i 35% mature within one to three years.

The Company’s earn-out liability relates to its acquisition of Net Irrigate, LLC during the third quarter of fiscal 2020. The value of the earn-out liability is based on active customers i one year subsequent to the closing date. The fair value of this earn-out payment was calculated using the weighted average probability for each potential outcome and has a maximum potential payout of $ i 1.5 million.

There were i i i i no / / / required fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis for the six months ended February 28, 2021 or February 29, 2020.

Note 8 – Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of its business operations, the Company enters into arrangements that obligate it to make future payments under contracts such as lease agreements. Additionally, the Company is involved, from time to time, in commercial litigation, employment disputes, administrative proceedings, business disputes and other legal proceedings. The Company has established accruals for certain proceedings based on an assessment of probability of loss. The Company believes that any such currently-pending proceedings are either covered by insurance or would not have a material effect on the business or its consolidated financial statements if decided in a manner that is unfavorable to the Company. Such proceedings are exclusive of environmental remediation matters which are discussed separately below.

Infrastructure Products

The Company is currently defending a number of product liability lawsuits arising out of vehicle collisions with highway barriers incorporating the Company’s X-Lite® end terminal. Despite the September 2018 reversal of a sizable judgment against a competitor, the Company expects that the significant attention brought to the infrastructure products industry by the original judgment may lead to additional lawsuits being filed against the Company and others in the industry.

The Company, certain of its subsidiaries, and certain third parties which originally designed the X-Lite end terminal have also been named in a lawsuit filed on June 9, 2020 in the Circuit Court of Cole County, Missouri by Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission (“MHTC”). MHTC alleges, among other things, that the X-Lite end terminal was defectively designed and failed to perform as designed, intended, and advertised, leading to MHTC’s removal and replacement of X-Lite end terminals from Missouri’s roadways. MHTC alleges strict liability (defective design and failure to warn), negligence, breach of express warranties, breach of implied warranties (merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose), fraud, and public nuisance. MHTC seeks compensatory damages, interest, attorneys’ fees, and punitive damages.

The Company believes it has meritorious factual and legal defenses to each of the lawsuits discussed above and is prepared to vigorously defend its interests. Based on the information currently available to the Company, the Company does not believe that a loss is probable in any of these lawsuits; therefore, no accrual has been included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. While it is possible that a loss may be incurred, the Company is unable to estimate a range of potential loss due to the complexity and current status of these lawsuits. However, the Company maintains insurance coverage to mitigate the impact of adverse exposures in these lawsuits and does not expect that these lawsuits will have a material adverse effect on its business or its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2019, the Company was informed by letter that the Department of Justice, Civil Division and U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of New York, with the assistance of the Department of Transportation, Office of Inspector General, are conducting an investigation of the Company relating to the Company’s X-Lite end terminal and potential violations of the federal civil False Claims Act. Depending on the outcome of this matter, there could be a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or its consolidated financial statements. Given the current posture of the matter, the Company is unable to estimate a range of potential loss, if any, or to express an opinion regarding the ultimate outcome.

Environmental Remediation

In previous years, the Company committed to a plan to remediate environmental contamination of the groundwater at and adjacent to its Lindsay, Nebraska facility (the “site”). The current estimated aggregate accrued cost of $ i 16.1 million is based on consideration of remediation options which the Company believes could be successful in meeting the long-term

- 13 -

Table of Contents

regulatory requirements of the site. The Company submitted a revised remedial alternatives evaluation report to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and the Nebraska Department of Environment and Energy (the “NDEE”) in August 2020 to review remediation alternatives and proposed plans for the site. The proposed remediation plan is preliminary and has not been approved by the EPA or the NDEE. Based on guidance from third-party environmental experts and the preliminary discussions with the regulatory agencies, the Company anticipates that a definitive plan will not be agreed upon until the latter half of calendar 2021 or later. An increase to the liability of $ i 1.0 million was recorded within general and administrative expense on the condensed consolidated statement of earnings in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. Of the total liability, $ i 11.0 million was calculated on a discounted basis using a discount rate of i 1.2%, which represents a risk-free rate. This discounted portion of the liability amounts to $ i 12.4 million on an undiscounted basis.

The Company accrues the anticipated cost of investigation and remediation when the obligation is probable and can be reasonably estimated. While the plan has not formally been approved by the EPA, the Company believes the current accrual is a good faith estimate of the long-term cost of remediation at this site; however, the estimate of costs and their timing could change as a result of a number of factors, including (1) EPA input on the proposed remediation plan and any changes which it may subsequently require, (2) refinement of cost estimates and length of time required to complete remediation and post-remediation operations and maintenance, (3) effectiveness of the technology chosen in remediation of the site as well as changes in technology that may be available in the future, and (4) unforeseen circumstances existing at the site. As a result of these factors, the actual amount of costs incurred by the Company in connection with the remediation of contamination of its Lindsay, Nebraska site could exceed the amounts accrued for this expense at this time. While any revisions could be material to the operating results of any fiscal quarter or fiscal year, the Company does not expect such additional expenses would have a material adverse effect on its liquidity or financial condition.

Note 10 – Share-Based Compensation

The Company’s current share-based compensation plans, approved by the stockholders of the Company, provides for awards of stock options, restricted shares, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), stock appreciation rights, performance shares, and performance stock units (“PSUs”) to employees and non-employee directors of the Company. The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values. Share-based compensation expense was $ i 2.5 million and $ i 1.5 million for the three months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, respectively, and $4.2 million and $ i 2.7 million for the six months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, respectively.

During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company’s former chief executive officer retired and entered into a one-year consulting agreement to provide transition services. The agreement provided for the modification of all outstanding and unvested share-based payment awards held by the former chief executive officer to continue vesting according to their respective original vesting schedules for the duration of the consulting services. For the three months ended February 28, 2021, the Company recorded $ i 1.5 million of incremental share-based compensation expense related to this modification.

ITEM 2 ‑ Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Concerning Forward‑Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains not only historical information, but also forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Statements that are not historical are forward-looking and reflect information concerning possible or assumed future results of operations and planned financing of the Company. In addition, forward-looking statements may be made orally or in press releases, conferences, reports, on the Company's web site, or otherwise, in the future by or on behalf of the Company. When used by or on behalf of the Company, the words “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “intend,” “will,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “outlook,” “could,” “may,” “should” or similar expressions generally identify forward-looking statements. The entire section entitled “Executive Overview and Outlook” should be considered forward-looking statements. For these statements, the Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including but not limited to those discussed in the “Risk Factors” section in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2020. Readers should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement and should recognize that the statements are predictions of future results or conditions, which may not occur as anticipated. Actual results or conditions could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements and from historical results, due to the risks and uncertainties described herein and in the Company’s other public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Company’s fiscal year ended August 31, 2020, as well as other risks and uncertainties not now anticipated. The risks and uncertainties described herein and in the Company’s other public filings are not exclusive and further information concerning the Company and its businesses, including factors that potentially could materially affect the Company's financial results, may emerge from time to time. Except as required by law, the Company assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in factors or assumptions affecting such forward-looking statements.

COVID-19 Impact

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) a global pandemic. This outbreak, which has continued to spread worldwide, has adversely affected workforces, customers, economies, and financial markets globally, leading to economic uncertainty. Shelter-in-place or stay-at-home orders have been implemented from time to time in many of the jurisdictions in which the Company operates. However, because the Company supports critical industries, the Company’s facilities worldwide have generally been considered “business essential” and have remained open throughout the outbreak with limited exceptions. Accordingly, COVID-19 has had a limited impact on the Company’s manufacturing operations to date. While the Company has implemented new procedures to protect the health and well-being of employees and customers, costs associated with these procedures have not been material. In addition, the pandemic has not had a material adverse effect on demand for the Company’s irrigation or infrastructure products; however, the timing of infrastructure revenue continues to be impacted by reduced road construction activity and delays in project implementations.

The ultimate impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business, results of operations, or cash flows remains uncertain and depends on numerous evolving factors that the Company may not be able to accurately predict or effectively respond to, including, without limitation: the duration and scope of the outbreak; mutations of COVID-19; actions taken by governments, businesses, and individuals in response to the outbreak; the effect on economic activity and actions taken in response; the effect on customers and their demand for the Company’s products and services; and the Company’s ability to manufacture, sell, distribute and service its products, including without limitation as a result of supply chain challenges, facility closures, social distancing, restrictions on travel, fear or anxiety by the populace, and shelter-in-place orders. As such, the full financial impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business is difficult to estimate.

Accounting Policies

In preparing the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management must make a variety of decisions which impact the reported amounts and the related disclosures. These decisions include the selection of the appropriate accounting principles to be applied and the assumptions on which to base accounting estimates. In making these decisions, management applies its judgment based on its understanding and analysis of the relevant circumstances and the Company’s historical experience.

The Company’s accounting policies that are most important to the presentation of its results of operations and financial condition, and which require the greatest use of judgments and estimates by management, are designated as its critical accounting policies. See discussion of the Company’s critical accounting policies under Item 7 in the Company’s Annual

- 17 -

Table of Contents

Report on Form 10-K for the Company’s fiscal year ended August 31, 2020. Management periodically re-evaluates and adjusts its critical accounting policies as circumstances change. There were no significant changes in the Company’s critical accounting policies during the six months ended February 28, 2021.

Recent Accounting Guidance

See Note 1 – Basis of Presentation and the disclosure therein of recently adopted accounting guidance to the condensed consolidated financial statements set forth in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Executive Overview and Outlook

Operating revenues for the three months ended February 28, 2021 were $143.6 million, an increase of 26 percent compared to $113.8 million for the three months ended February 29, 2020. Irrigation segment revenues increased 27 percent to $118.6 million and infrastructure segment revenues increased 23 percent to $25.0 million. Net earnings for the three months ended February 28, 2021 were $11.9 million, or $1.08 per diluted share, compared to net earnings of $5.5 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, for the three months ended February 29, 2020.

The Company’s irrigation revenues are highly dependent upon the need for irrigated agricultural crop production, which, in turn, depends upon many factors, including the following primary drivers:

•

Agricultural commodity prices – As of February 2021, U.S. corn prices have increased approximately 43 percent and U.S. soybean prices have increased approximately 54 percent from February 2020. The increase in these commodity prices resulted from lower production levels caused by unfavorable weather conditions coupled with higher demand coming primarily from an increase in corn and soybean exports to China.

•

Net farm income – As of February 2021, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (the “USDA”) estimated U.S. 2021 net farm income to be $111.4 billion, a decrease of eight percent from the USDA’s estimated U.S. 2020 net farm income of $121.1 billion. The decrease is primarily related to a reduction in 2021 in Federal government direct farm program payments from the Coronavirus Food Assistance Program (“CFAP”) that increased government support in 2020. Federal government direct farm program payments are estimated to return to more historical levels during 2021. A projected increase in cash receipts from crops and livestock is expected to offset a portion of the decrease in government support payments.

•

Weather conditions – Demand for irrigation equipment is often positively affected by storm damage and prolonged periods of drought conditions as producers look for ways to reduce the risk of low crop production and crop failures. Conversely, demand for irrigation equipment can be negatively affected during periods of more predictable or excessive natural precipitation.

•

Governmental policies – A number of governmental laws and regulations can affect the Company’s business, including:

•

The Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 (the “Farm Bill”) was signed into law in December 2018. The Farm Bill continues many of the programs that were in the Agricultural Act of 2014, which expired in September 2018. Such programs are designed to provide a degree of certainty to growers, including funding for the Environmental Quality Incentives Program, which provides financial assistance to farmers to implement conservation practices, and is frequently used to assist in the purchase of center pivot irrigation systems.

•

The U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“U.S. Tax Reform”) enacted in December 2017 increased the benefit of certain tax incentives, such as the Section 179 income tax deduction and Section 168 bonus depreciation, which are intended to encourage equipment purchases by allowing the entire cost of equipment to be treated as an expense in the year of purchase rather than amortized over its useful life.

•

Biofuel production continues to be a major demand driver for irrigated corn, sugar cane and soybeans as these crops are used in high volumes to produce ethanol and biodiesel. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) missed the November 30, 2020 deadline to finalize Renewable Fuels Standard (RFS) volume requirements for 2021. In explaining the delay, the EPA cited a steep decline in gasoline sales during the coronavirus pandemic, making it difficult to forecast demand in 2021.

•

Many international markets are affected by government policies such as subsidies and other agriculturally related incentives. While these policies can have a significant effect on individual markets, they typically do not have a material effect on the consolidated results of the Company.

•

Currency – The value of the U.S. dollar fluctuates in relation to the value of currencies in a number of countries to which the Company exports products and in which the Company maintains local operations. The strengthening of the dollar increases the cost in the local currency of the products exported from the U.S. into these countries and, therefore, could negatively affect the Company’s international sales and margins. In addition, the U.S. dollar value of sales made in any affected foreign currencies will decline as the value of the dollar rises in relation to these other currencies.

International irrigation markets remain active with opportunities for further development and expansion, however regional political and economic factors, currency conditions and other factors can create a challenging environment. Additionally, international results are heavily dependent upon project sales which tend to fluctuate and can be difficult to forecast accurately.

The infrastructure business is dependent to some extent on government spending for road construction. In December 2015, the U.S. government enacted a five-year, $305 billion highway-funding bill (the “FAST Act”) to fund highway and bridge projects. The FAST Act was scheduled to expire in September 2020, however Congress reauthorized a one year extension. This extension includes an additional $13.6 billion added to the Highway Trust Fund, which finances most government spending for highways and mass transit. A Federal COVID-19 relief bill signed December 27, 2020 includes $10 billion of emergency aid for state departments of transportation to help fund eligible projects. Despite government spending uncertainty, opportunities exist for market expansion in each of the infrastructure product lines. Demand for the Company’s transportation safety products continues to be driven by population growth and the need for improved road safety.

During the first six months of fiscal 2021, demand for irrigation equipment in the U.S. has increased significantly over the same prior year period due to improved farmer sentiment resulting from higher agricultural commodity prices and improved net farm income in 2020. Also, during this period there has been a significant increase in steel and other raw material costs as well as freight and logistics costs. This has created short-term pressure on operating margins until these increased costs can be fully covered by increases in selling prices. In addition, supply chain constraints impacting availability of raw materials and trucking resources have contributed to cost increases and have resulted in extended lead times for deliveries.

The backlog of unshipped orders at February 28, 2021 was $101.4 million compared with $104.4 million at February 29, 2020. Included in these backlogs are amounts of $2.7 million and $5.5 million, respectively, for orders that are not expected to be fulfilled within the subsequent twelve months. The decrease in the total backlog is due to two large infrastructure orders in the prior year totaling $38.0 million that did not repeat, while order backlogs in North America and international irrigation are higher compared to the prior year. 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, and therefore is generally not a good indication of the next fiscal quarter’s revenues.

The global drivers for the Company’s markets of population growth, expanded food production, efficient water use and infrastructure expansion support the Company’s long-term growth goals. The most significant opportunities for growth over the next several years are in international markets, where irrigation use is less developed and demand is driven primarily by food security, water scarcity and population growth.

⁽¹⁾	Includes $8.6 million and $7.3 million of corporate operating expenses for the three months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, respectively.

Revenues

Operating revenues for the three months ended February 28, 2021 increased 26 percent to $143.6 million from $113.8 million for the three months ended February 29, 2020, as irrigation revenues increased $25.1 million and infrastructure revenues increased $4.7 million. The irrigation segment provided 83 percent of the Company’s revenue during the three months ended February 28, 2021 as compared to 82 percent for the three months ended February 29, 2020.

North America irrigation revenues for the three months ended February 28, 2021 of $80.2 million increased $13.1 million, or 19 percent, from $67.1 million for the three months ended February 29, 2020. The increase resulted primarily from higher irrigation equipment unit volume and slightly higher average selling prices. The increase was partially offset by revenue from engineering project services in the prior year that did not repeat.

International irrigation revenues for the three months ended February 28, 2021 of $38.4 million increased $12.0 million, or 45 percent, from $26.4 million for the three months ended February 29, 2020. The increase resulted from higher unit sales volumes in several international markets which were partially offset by the unfavorable effects of foreign currency translation of approximately $0.6 million compared to the prior year second quarter.

Infrastructure segment revenues for the three months ended February 28, 2021 of $25.0 million increased $4.7 million, or 23 percent, from $20.3 million for the three months ended February 29, 2020. The increase resulted primarily from higher Road Zipper System sales and lease revenue.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the three months ended February 28, 2021 of $41.2 million increased 23 percent from $33.4 million for the three months ended February 29, 2020. The increase in gross profit resulted primarily from higher irrigation equipment unit sales volume and was partially offset by the impact of higher raw material and freight costs. In addition, gross profit for the three months ended February 29, 2020 included a gain recorded in the infrastructure segment of $1.2 million on the sale of a building that had been held for sale. Gross margin was 28.7 percent of sales for the three months ended February 28, 2021 compared with 29.4 percent of sales for the three months ended February 29, 2020. Higher gross margin in the prior year was primarily due to the building sale gain.

⁽¹⁾	Includes $15.9 million and $13.6 million of corporate operating expenses for the six months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, respectively.

Revenues

Operating revenues for the six months ended February 28, 2021 increased 13 percent to $252.1 million from $223.2 million for the six months ended February 29, 2020, as irrigation revenues increased $29.1 million and infrastructure revenues decreased $0.3 million. The irrigation segment provided 82 percent of the Company’s revenue during the six months ended February 28, 2021 as compared to 79 percent for the six months ended February 29, 2020.

North America irrigation revenues for the six months ended February 28, 2021 of $132.9 million increased $12.3 million, or 10 percent, from $120.7 million for the six months ended February 29, 2020. The increase resulted primarily from higher irrigation equipment unit sales volume. The increase was partially offset by revenue from engineering project services in the prior year that did not repeat.

International irrigation revenues for the six months ended February 28, 2021 of $73.0 million increased $16.8 million, or 30 percent, from $56.1 million for the six months ended February 29, 2020. The increase resulted from higher unit sales volumes in several international markets which were partially offset by the unfavorable effects of foreign currency translation of approximately $3.0 million compared to the six months ended February 29, 2020.

Infrastructure segment revenues for the six months ended February 28, 2021 of $46.1 million decreased $0.3 million or 0.5 percent from $46.3 million. The decrease resulted primarily from lower sales of road safety products due to lower road construction activity which was partially offset by higher Road Zipper System lease revenue.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the six months ended February 28, 2021 of $72.6 million increased 8 percent from $67.5 million for the six months ended February 29, 2020. The increase in gross profit resulted primarily from higher irrigation equipment unit sales volume and was partially offset by the impact of higher raw material and freight costs. In addition, gross profit for the six months ended February 29, 2020 included a gain recorded in the infrastructure segment of $1.2 million on the sale of a building that had been held for sale. Gross margin was 28.8 percent of sales for the six months ended February 28, 2021 compared with 30.2 percent of sales for the six months ended February 29, 2020. Lower gross margin in the current year resulted primarily from a higher proportion of revenues coming from irrigation compared to the prior year, which have lower gross margin than infrastructure revenues. In addition, the prior year gross margin benefited from the building sale gain.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses of $49.2 million for the six months ended February 28, 2021 increased $2.7 million, or 6 percent, compared with $46.6 million for the six months ended February 29, 2020. The increase resulted primarily from increased incentive compensation expense and a one-time expense of $1.5 million in equity awards related to the retirement of the Company’s chief executive officer. These increases were partially offset by decreases in other areas such as travel.

Other Expense, net

Other expense for the six months ended February 28, 2021 decreased $0.9 million compared to the six months ended February 29, 2020. The change resulted primarily from lower foreign currency transaction losses.

Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $2.5 million and $4.3 million for the six months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, respectively. The effective income tax rate was 11.5 percent and 23.5 percent for the six months ended February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, respectively. The six months ended February 28, 2021 include a benefit of $1.7 million related to the release of a valuation allowance primarily related to net operating loss carryforwards in a foreign jurisdiction that are now expected to be realizable.

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 its credit arrangements described below. The Company’s investments in marketable securities are primarily comprised of United States government securities and investment grade corporate bonds. The Company believes its current cash resources, investments in marketable securities, 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 were approximately $35.8 million, $39.8 million, and $37.2 million as of February 28, 2021, February 29, 2020, and August 31, 2020, respectively. The Company considers earnings in foreign subsidiaries to be indefinitely reinvested and would need to accrue and pay incremental state, local, and foreign taxes if such earnings were repatriated to the United States. The Company does not intend to repatriate the funds and does not expect these funds to have a significant impact on the Company’s overall liquidity.

Net working capital was $260.8 million at February 28, 2021, as compared with $237.2 million at February 29, 2020 and $245.5 million at August 31, 2020. Cash provided by operating activities totaled $11.1 million during the six months ended February 28, 2021, compared to cash used in operating activities of $2.2 million during the six months ended February 29, 2020. This change was primarily due to higher net earnings and more cash generated from changes in working capital, primarily accounts payable and other noncurrent assets and liabilities, compared to the same prior year period.

Cash flows used in investing activities totaled $17.7 million during the six months ended February 28, 2021 compared to $19.0 million during the six months ended February 29, 2020. The current year period includes $16.6 million in purchases of property, plant, and equipment, compared to $5.3 million in the same prior year period. The increase includes $8.5 million to exercise a purchase option for the land and buildings related to the Company’s manufacturing operation in Turkey. The prior year period included cash outflows of $20.0 million related to the Company’s initial purchase of marketable securities.

Cash flows used in financing activities totaled $4.5 million during the six months ended February 28, 2021 compared to cash flows used in financing activities of $6.4 million during the six months ended February 29, 2020. The decrease was primarily the result of higher proceeds from the exercise of stock options compared to the same prior year period.

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. Under the Company’s capital allocation plan, the priorities for uses of cash include:

•

Investment in organic growth including capital expenditures and expansion of international markets,

•

Dividends to stockholders, along with expectations to increase dividends over time,

•

Synergistic acquisitions that provide attractive returns to stockholders, and

•

Opportunistic share repurchases taking into account cyclical and seasonal fluctuations.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures for fiscal 2021 are expected to be between $20.0 million and $25.0 million, including equipment replacement, productivity improvements and new product development. 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 the second quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company paid a quarterly cash dividend to stockholders of $0.32 per common share, or $3.5 million, compared to a quarterly cash dividend of $0.31 per common share, or $3.3 million, in the second quarter of fiscal 2020.

Long-Term Borrowing Facilities

Senior Notes. The Company has outstanding $115.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 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 May 31, 2022. The Company intends to use borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility for working capital purposes and to fund acquisitions. At February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, 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 February 28, 2021, the Company had the ability to borrow up to $50.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 90 basis points (1.09 percent at February 28, 2021), 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 of 0.15 percent on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility.

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility have equal priority with borrowings under the Company’s Senior Notes. Each of the credit arrangements described above include 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 for the benefit of 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 February 28, 2021 and February 29, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all financial loan covenants contained in its credit arrangements in place as of each of those dates.

Series 2006A Bonds. Elecsys International LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, has outstanding $1.6 million in principal amount of industrial revenue bonds that were issued in 2006 (the “Series 2006A Bonds”). Principal and interest on the Series 2006A Bonds are payable monthly through maturity on September 1, 2026. The interest rate is adjustable every five years based on the yield of the 5-year United States Treasury Notes, plus 0.45 percent (0.81 percent as of February 28, 2021). This rate was adjusted on September 1, 2016 in accordance with the terms of the bonds, and the adjusted rate will be in force until September 1, 2021. The obligations under the Series 2006A Bonds are secured by a first priority security interest in certain real estate.
