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, 2021.

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 December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, which simplifies the accounting and related disclosure requirements for income taxes. The Company adopted this standard in the first quarter of its fiscal 2022. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued 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 $2.1 million at May 31, 2022.

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 May 31, 2022, May 31, 2021, and August 31, 2021, contract assets amounted to $1.0 million, $1.5 million, and $1.3 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 May 31, 2022, May 31, 2021, and August 31, 2021, contract liabilities amounted to $35.0 million, $35.5 million, and $37.4 million, respectively. Contract liabilities are included within other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. During the Company’s nine months ended May 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company recognized $32.7 million and $16.7 million of revenue that were included in the liabilities as of August 31, 2021 and 2020 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.

The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted net earnings per share for the three and nine months ended May 31, 2022 and 2021:


	Three months ended				Nine months ended
($ and shares in thousands, except per share amounts)	May 31, 2022		May 31, 2021		May 31, 2022		May 31, 2021
Numerator:
Net earnings	$	25,073	$	17,797	$	47,540	$	36,768

Denominator:
Weighted average shares outstanding		10,978		10,907		10,960		10,879
Diluted effect of stock awards		43		126		60		88
Weighted average shares outstanding assuming dilution		11,021		11,033		11,020		10,967

Basic net earnings per share	$	2.28	$	1.63	$	4.34	$	3.38
Diluted net earnings per share	$	2.28	$	1.61	$	4.31	$	3.35

Certain stock options and restricted stock units were excluded from the computation of diluted net earnings per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Performance stock units are excluded from the calculation of dilutive potential common shares until the threshold performance conditions have been satisfied. The following table shows the securities excluded from the computation of earnings per share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive:


	Three months ended				Nine months ended

Restricted stock units		—		—		1		—
Stock options		—		—		5		28
Performance stock units		2		—		4		4

Note 4 – Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $10.5 million and $3.4 million for the three months ended May 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and recorded income tax expense of $16.7 million and $5.8 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2022 and 2021, 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 28.2 percent and 21.4 percent for the nine months ended May 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The increase in the estimated annual effective income tax rate from May 2021 to May 2022 relates primarily to the change in earnings mix among foreign operations.

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 $1.4 million and $3.3 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The discrete items recorded in the nine months ended May 31, 2022 include a benefit of $0.7 million related to the vesting of share-based compensation awards, and the discrete items recorded in the nine months ended May 31, 2021 include a benefit of $1.7 million related to the release of a valuation allowance related to net operating loss carryforwards in a foreign jurisdiction.

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 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 May 31, 2022, approximately 44% of the Company’s marketable securities investments mature within one year and 56% mature within one to five years.

The Company enters into derivative instrument agreements, to manage risk in connection with changes in foreign currency. The Company only enters into derivative instrument agreements with counterparties who have highly rated credit and does not enter into derivative instrument agreements for trading or speculative purposes. The fair values are based on inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability and are determined by standard calculations and models that use readily observable market parameters. These inputs include foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. Industry standard data providers are the primary source for forward and spot rate information for both interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

On March 28, 2022, the Company entered into a fixed-to-fixed cross currency swap with a notional amount of $50.0 million, or €45.6 million, that is set to mature on March 30, 2027. The Company elected the spot method for designating this contract as a net investment hedge. Changes in the fair value of the this contract is reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of this contract as of May 31, 2022, is disclosed in the table above, and is recorded within other noncurrent assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company’s earn-out liability relates to its acquisition of Net Irrigate, LLC during the third quarter of fiscal 2020 and was settled in full during the first quarter of fiscal 2022.

There were no required fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis for the nine months ended May 31, 2022 or 2021.

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 $16.1 million is based on consideration of remediation options which the Company believes could be successful in meeting the long-term 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. While the proposed remediation plan is preliminary and has not been approved by the EPA or the NDEE, they have recently approved an in situ thermal remediation pilot study to be conducted by the Company at a specific location on the site. The Company expects to begin implementation of the pilot program in the second half of calendar 2022. Of the total liability as of May 31, 2022, $11.0 million was calculated on a discounted basis using a discount rate of 1.2%, which represents a risk-free rate. This discounted portion of the liability amounts to $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 a definitive plan has not been formally 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 but not limited to (1) EPA input on the proposed remediation plan and any changes which the EPA may subsequently require, (2) effectiveness of the in situ thermal pilot remediation pilot study, (3) refinement of cost estimates and length of time required to complete remediation and post-remediation operations and maintenance, (4) effectiveness of the technology chosen in remediation of the site as well as changes in technology that may be available in the future, and (5) 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.

COVID-19 Impact

In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) a global pandemic. This outbreak 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, the Company’s manufacturing facilities worldwide 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, although the Company continues to experience supply chain challenges, including increased lead times and limited availability of certain components, raw material price increases, and labor and transportation logistical constraints that have contributed to cost increases. The pandemic has not had a material adverse effect on the overall demand for the Company’s irrigation or infrastructure products. However, the pandemic has resulted in a slowdown of some road construction activity and delays in certain project implementations. 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.

The ongoing 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.

- 17 -

Table of Contents

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 Report on Form 10-K for the Company’s fiscal year ended August 31, 2021. 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 nine months ended May 31, 2022.

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 May 31, 2022 were $214.3 million, an increase of 32 percent compared to $161.9 million for the three months ended May 31, 2021. Irrigation segment revenues increased 35 percent to $188.7 million and infrastructure segment revenues increased 17 percent to $25.6 million. Net earnings for the three months ended May 31, 2022 were $25.1 million, or $2.28 per diluted share, compared to net earnings of $17.8 million, or $1.61 per diluted share, for the three months ended May 31, 2021.

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 efficiently. These drivers are affected by a number of factors, including the following:

•

Agricultural commodity prices – As of May 2022, U.S. corn prices have increased approximately 18 percent and U.S. soybean prices have increased approximately 11 percent from May 2021. The sustained increases are due to constrained supply levels globally coupled with higher demand. The continued conflict between Ukraine and Russia has put additional pressure on the availability of agricultural commodities, further increasing corn, wheat and soybean prices.

•

Net farm income – As of February 2022, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (the “USDA”) estimated U.S. 2022 net farm income to be $113.7 billion, a decrease of 4.5 percent from the USDA’s estimated U.S. 2021 net farm income of $119.1 billion. A projected increase in cash receipts has been more than offset by a decrease in government support payments and higher cash expenses. If the estimated 2022 net farm income is realized, such income would be at its second-highest level since 2013.

•

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 provides 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.

•

Changes to U.S. income tax laws 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.

- 18 -

Table of Contents

•

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. In December 2021, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) proposed the Renewable Fuels Standard (RFS) volume requirements for 2022, 2021, and 2020. The proposed volumes for 2022 are over 3.5 billion gallons higher than the volume of renewable fuel used in 2020. The EPA is proposing 2021 volumes at the level it predicts the market will use by the end of the year, while proposing revisions to the 2020 standards to account for market challenges, including the COVID-19 pandemic.

•

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.

Demand for irrigation equipment in the U.S. has remained robust over the same prior year period due to positive farmer sentiment resulting from strong agricultural commodity prices and a favorable outlook for net farm income. During this period supply chain constraints such as steel and other raw material costs as well as freight and logistics costs have continued to persist. These circumstances have continued to temper operating margins and are expected to continue to do so 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 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 primarily 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. The Company continues to monitor the Ukraine and Russia conflict for both short and long-term implications and has currently suspended new business activity in Russia and Belarus since February 2022. Sales with Russian and Ukrainian customers historically have represented less than 5% of consolidated revenues. Additionally, international results are heavily dependent upon project sales which tend to fluctuate and can be difficult to forecast accurately.

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 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act in November 2021 marked the largest infusion of federal investment into infrastructure projects in more than a decade. This legislation introduced $110 billion in incremental federal funding, planned for roads, bridges, and other transportation projects, which the Company anticipates will translate into higher demand for its transportation safety products.

The backlog of unshipped orders at May 31, 2022 was $98.3 million compared with $120.8 million at May 31, 2021. The backlog in the prior year included an irrigation project order of $36 million. Excluding the impact of this order, the irrigation backlog is higher compared to the prior year while the infrastructure backlog is lower. 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.

Includes $8.2 million and $6.4 million of corporate operating expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Revenues

Operating revenues for the three months ended May 31, 2022 increased 32 percent to $214.3 million from $161.9 million for the three months ended May 31, 2021, as irrigation revenues increased $48.5 million and infrastructure revenues increased $3.8 million. The irrigation segment provided 88 percent of the Company’s revenue during the three months ended May 31, 2022 as compared to 87 percent for the three months ended May 31, 2021.

North America irrigation revenues for the three months ended May 31, 2022 of $96.2 million increased $8.8 million, or 10 percent, from $87.4 million for the three months ended May 31, 2021. The increase resulted primarily from the impact of higher average selling prices which was partially offset by lower unit sales volume compared to the same prior year period. Demand for irrigation equipment is supported by favorable agricultural commodity prices and farm income, while higher average selling prices result from the pass through of higher raw material costs to customers.

International irrigation revenues for the three months ended May 31, 2022 of $92.5 million increased $39.7 million, or 75 percent, from $52.8 million for the three months ended May 31, 2021. The increase resulted from a combination of higher average selling prices and higher unit sales volumes in most international markets. Revenues in Brazil more than doubled compared to the same prior year period. These increases are the result of positive market fundamentals and from the pass through of higher raw material costs. Also contributing were favorable effects of foreign currency translation of approximately $2.5 million compared to the same prior year period.

Infrastructure segment revenues for the three months ended May 31, 2022 of $25.6 million increased $3.8 million, or 17 percent, from $21.7 million for the three months ended May 31, 2021. The increase resulted from increased sales of Road Zipper Systems and road safety products, which were partially offset by lower Road Zipper System lease revenue.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the three months ended May 31, 2022 of $61.7 million increased 40 percent from $44.1 million for the three months ended May 31, 2021. The increase in gross profit resulted primarily from higher revenues in both segments along with improved gross margin. Gross margin was 28.8 percent of sales for the three months ended May 31, 2022 compared with 27.2 percent of sales for the three months ended May 31, 2021. Irrigation gross margin increased primarily due to improved price realization while infrastructure gross margin decreased due to a less favorable margin mix of revenues and under absorbed fixed overhead costs.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses of $26.5 million for the three months ended May 31, 2022 increased $3.8 million, or 17 percent, compared with $22.7 million for the three months ended May 31, 2021. The increase resulted primarily from higher incentive expense attributable to improved business results and higher travel related expenses compared to the same prior year period.

Other Income (Expense), net

The Company recorded other income of $0.4 million for the three months ended May 31, 2022 compared to other expense of $0.2 million for the three months ended May 31, 2021. The change resulted primarily from higher foreign currency transaction gains compared to the same prior year period.

Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $10.5 million and $3.4 million for the three months ended May 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective income tax rate was 29.5 percent and 15.9 percent for the three months ended May 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The higher effective tax rate reflects an increased proportion of earnings in higher rate foreign jurisdictions in the current year period. In addition, the same prior year period benefited from the impact of larger discrete items.

Includes $21.5 million and $22.3 million of corporate operating expenses for the nine months ended May 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Revenues

Operating revenues for the nine months ended May 31, 2022 increased 40 percent to $580.5 million from $414.0 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2021, as irrigation revenues increased $169.3 million and infrastructure revenues decreased $2.7 million. The irrigation segment provided 89 percent of the Company’s revenue during the nine months ended May 31, 2022 as compared to 84 percent for the nine months ended May 31, 2021.

North America irrigation revenues for the nine months ended May 31, 2022 of $275.6 million increased $55.3 million, or 25 percent, from $220.3 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2021. The increase resulted primarily from the impact of higher average selling prices which was partially offset by lower unit sales volume compared to the same prior year period. Demand for irrigation equipment is supported by favorable agricultural commodity prices and farm income, while higher average selling prices result from the pass through of higher raw material costs to customers.

International irrigation revenues for the nine months ended May 31, 2022 of $239.8 million increased $114.0 million, or 91 percent, from $125.8 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2021. The increase resulted from a combination of higher average selling prices and higher unit sales volumes in most international markets, namely Brazil, Middle East and Europe. These increases are the result of positive market fundamentals and from the pass through of higher raw material costs. Also contributing were favorable effects of foreign currency translation of approximately $0.7 million compared to the same prior year period.

Infrastructure segment revenues for the nine months ended May 31, 2022 of $65.1 million decreased $2.7 million, or 4 percent, from $67.9 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2021. The decrease resulted from lower Road Zipper System sales and lease revenue, which was partially offset by increased sales of road safety products.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the nine months ended May 31, 2022 of $142.1 million increased 22 percent from $116.6 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2021. The increase in gross profit resulted from higher irrigation segment revenues that were partially offset by lower infrastructure segment revenues. In addition, gross profit was reduced by the impact of higher costs of raw materials and other inputs, as well as approximately $8.8 million resulting from the impact of the LIFO method of accounting for inventory, of which $7.8 million impacted the irrigation segment and $1.0 million impacted the infrastructure segment. Under LIFO, higher raw material costs are recognized in cost of goods sold rather than in ending inventory values. Gross margin was 24.5 percent of sales for the nine months ended May 31, 2022 compared with 28.2 percent of sales for the nine months ended May 31, 2021. In addition to the factors noted above, lower gross margin in the current year period resulted in part from a higher proportion of irrigation revenues, which have a lower gross margin than infrastructure revenues, as compared to the same prior year period.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses of $75.2 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2022 increased $3.2 million, or 5 percent, compared with $72.0 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2021. The increase resulted primarily from higher employee and travel related expenses, compared to the same prior year period. The prior year period also included a one-time expense of $1.5 million in equity awards related to the retirement of the Company's chief executive officer.

Other Expense, net

Other expense for the nine months ended May 31, 2022 increased $0.5 million compared to the nine months ended May 31, 2021. The change resulted primarily from higher foreign currency transaction losses compared to the same prior year period.

Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $16.7 million and $5.8 million for the nine months ended May 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective income tax rate was 26.0 percent and 13.7 percent for the nine months ended May 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The higher effective tax rate reflects an increased proportion of earnings in higher rate foreign jurisdictions in the current year period. In addition, the same prior year period benefited from the impact of larger discrete items.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities totaled $95.7 million at May 31, 2022 compared with $140.5 million at May 31, 2021 and $146.7 million at August 31, 2021. 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 its credit arrangements described below. The Company’s investments in marketable securities are primarily comprised of United States government securities and investment grade corporate securities. 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 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 $37.5 million, $43.1 million, and $38.4 million as of May 31, 2022, May 31, 2021, and August 31, 2021, 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 $301.6 million at May 31, 2022, as compared with $273.5 million at May 31, 2021 and $277.9 million at August 31, 2021. Cash used in operating activities totaled $24.9 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2022, compared to cash provided by operating activities of $30.7 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2021. This change was primarily due to increases in receivables and inventories, both resulting from increased irrigation demand, that were partially offset by changes in other current liabilities, compared to the same prior year period.

Cash flows used in investing activities totaled $10.1 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2022 compared to $25.0 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2021. Purchases of marketable securities increased $5.4 million compared to the same prior year period. Purchases of property, plant, and equipment were $12.2 million, compared to $22.5 million in the same prior year period, which included $8.5 million for the purchase of land and buildings in Turkey.

Cash flows used in financing activities totaled $9.0 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2022 compared to cash flows used in financing activities of $8.1 million during the nine months ended May 31, 2021. The change was primarily the result of lower 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 2022 are expected to be between $15.0 million and $20.0 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 third quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company paid a quarterly cash dividend to stockholders of $0.33 per common share, or $3.6 million, compared to a quarterly cash dividend of $0.33 per common share, or $3.6 million, in the third quarter of fiscal 2021.

Share Repurchases

The Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $250.0 million of common stock with no expiration date. Under the program, shares may 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. There were no shares repurchased during the nine months ended May 31, 2022 or 2021. The remaining amount available under the repurchase program was $63.7 million as of May 31, 2022.

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 August 26, 2026. The Company intends to use borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility for working capital purposes and to fund acquisitions. At May 31, 2022 and 2021, 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 May 31, 2022, 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. The Revolving Credit Facility was amended to transition the benchmark rate from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate equal to the 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 2.14 percent at May 31, 2022), 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 on the unused balance depending on the Company’s leverage ratio then in effect (which resulted in a fee of 0.125 percent at May 31, 2022).

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 May 31, 2022 and 2021, 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 $1.0 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 (1.72 percent as of May 31, 2022). This rate was adjusted on September 1, 2021 in accordance with the terms of the bonds, and the adjusted rate will be in force through maturity. The obligations under the Series 2006A Bonds are secured by a first priority security interest in certain real estate.
