Notes to Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - (Unaudited)
March 31, 2025
1. Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
General
The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Alamo Group Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulations S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025. The balance sheet at December 31, 2024 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the "2024 10-K").
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740). The ASU requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as additional information on income taxes paid. The ASU is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is also permitted for annual financial statements that have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. This ASU will result in the required additional disclosures being included in our consolidated financial statements, once adopted.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40). The ASU requires disaggregated Income Statement Expenses. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is also permitted. This ASU will result in the required additional disclosures being included in our consolidated financial statements, once adopted.

5. Fair Value Measurements
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company records all derivatives in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, which requires derivative instruments to be reported on the condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value and establishes criteria for designation and effectiveness of hedging relationships. The Company is exposed to market risk such as changes in foreign currencies and interest rates. The Company does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.
The Company may periodically utilize derivative instruments such as foreign currency or interest rate swaps in the normal course of business to partially offset exposure. The related gains and losses are reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL") in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Company has two interest rate swap agreements outstanding as of March 31, 2025. The notional amount of the Company’s outstanding swap agreements is $267.6 million. The fair value of the Company’s derivative liabilities is $1.1 million as of March 31, 2025 compared to a derivative asset of $0.8 million as of December 31, 2024. In the condensed consolidated balance sheet, the fair value of the interest rate swaps is included in other long-term liabilities. The gains and losses are not material to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods presented.

Segment Information
The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) is the Chief Executive Officer. The CODM is responsible for evaluating the performance of the Company’s operating segments. This evaluation of operating segments supports the allocation of resources, both financial and human, to optimize income from operations as the measure of segment profit and loss.
Our reportable segments are our two Divisions: Vegetation Management and Industrial Equipment.
The CODM focuses heavily on operating performance and reviews mainly non-GAAP measures, such as bookings and backlog, absorption, and headcount. However, a few GAAP measures used to assess segment performance and allocation resources are:
•Division Net Sales
•Division Cost of Sales
13
•Division Operating Expenses
•Division Income from Operations

Overview
This report contains forward-looking statements that are based on Alamo Group’s current expectations. Actual results in future periods may differ materially from those expressed or implied because of a number of risks and uncertainties which are discussed below and in the Forward-Looking Information section. Unless the context otherwise requires, the terms the "Company", "we", "our" and "us" means Alamo Group Inc.
We experienced strong demand for our products in the Industrial Equipment Division during the first three months of 2025, resulting in 12% organic growth compared to first quarter in 2024. Forestry, tree care, and agricultural industries remained weaker leading to 27% sales decline in the Vegetation Management Division. Gross profit margins improved slightly, driven by the cost reduction actions completed in 2024, as well as continuous operational improvements.
For the first three months of 2025, the Company's net sales decreased by 8%, and net income decreased by 1% compared to the same period in 2024. The decrease in net sales was driven by weakness in the markets

served by our Vegetation Management Division. Additionally, the sale of Herschel Parts on August 16, 2024 had a negative impact to year-on-year sales, albeit immaterial on total Company basis. These challenges were offset by strong sales growth in the Industrial Equipment Division. The decline in net income was due to lower sales in the Vegetation Management Division.
Net Sales in the Vegetation Management Division decreased 27% for the first three months of 2025 compared to the strong first three months of 2024. The steep decline in the forestry, tree care and agricultural mowing markets that we experienced in 2024 affected first quarter sales. The Division's backlog has declined 30% compared to the same period in 2024 but improved by 1.3% compared to the fourth quarter in 2024. As a result, the Division's income from operations for the first three months of 2025 declined 39% versus the same period in 2024. To adjust to the market conditions and improve operational efficiency, the Company completed cost savings initiatives in the second half of 2024. As a result, operating margin in the first three months of 2024 was 8.1% compared to 4.0% in the fourth quarter in 2024.
Net Sales in the Industrial Equipment Division increased in the first three months of 2025 by 12% compared to the first three months of 2024, driven by growth in excavators, vacuum trucks, and snow removal. The Division’s backlog has declined by 8% compared to the same period in 2024 but improved by 7% compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. The Division's income from operations for the first three months of 2025 was up 23% versus the same period in 2024, due to the increased demand combined with operational improvements across all groups in this Division.
Consolidated income from operations was $44.5 million in the first three months of 2025 compared to $47.0 million in the first three months of 2024, a decrease of 5%. The Company's backlog of $702.7 million at the end of the first three months of 2025 is down 15% versus a backlog of $831.3 million at the end of the first three months of 2024.
The Company may be negatively affected by several factors, such as weakness in the overall U.S. or world-wide economy, further increases in interest rates, changes in tariff regulations and the imposition of new tariffs, ongoing trade disputes, a deterioration of our supply chain, changes in U.S. fiscal policy such as changes in the federal tax rate, significant changes in currency exchange rates, negative economic impacts resulting from geopolitical events such as the ongoing war in Ukraine, changes in trade policy, increased levels of government regulations, weakness in the agricultural sector, acquisition integration issues, budget constraints or revenue shortfalls in governmental entities, and other risks and uncertainties as described in the “Risk Factors" section in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the "2024 Form 10-K").
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 vs. Three Months Ended March 31, 2024
Net sales for the first quarter of 2025 were $391.0 million, a decrease of $34.6 million or 8% compared to $425.6 million for the first quarter of 2024. Net sales during the first quarter of 2025 declined due to weaker market demand in forestry, tree care, and agricultural mowing, partially offset by continued strong demand for Industrial Equipment.
Net Vegetation Management sales decreased by $59.8 million or 27% to $163.9 million for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $223.7 million during the same period in 2024. The decrease was due to sustained weakness in forestry, tree care, and agricultural mowing markets. The sale of Herschel Parts on August 16, 2024, contributed slightly to the year-over-year decrease but was immaterial to the overall results.
Net Industrial Equipment sales were $227.1 million in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $201.8 million for the same period in 2024, an increase of $25.3 million or 12%. The increase was due to solid demand in most product lines, particularly vacuum trucks and snow contributing the most to year-over-year growth.
Gross profit for the first quarter of 2025 was $102.8 million (26% of net sales) compared to $111.6 million (26% of net sales) during the same period in 2024, a decrease of $8.8 million. The decrease in gross profit during the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024 was driven by lower sales in the Vegetation Management
16
Division, partially offset by savings related to cost reduction initiatives completed in 2024. Gross margin improved by approximately 10 basis points compared to the same period in 2024.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) were $54.3 million (14% of net sales) during the first quarter of 2025 compared to $60.6 million (14% of net sales) during the same period of 2024, a decrease of $6.3 million. The decrease in SG&A expense in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024 is attributable to labor cost savings actions taken in Vegetation Management. Amortization expense in the first quarter of 2025 was $4.0 million compared to $4.1 million in the same period in 2024.
Interest expense was $3.2 million for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $6.1 million during the same period in 2024. The decrease in interest expense in the first quarter of 2025 was due to debt reduction.
Other income (expense), net was $0.7 million of expense for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $0.1 million of income during the same period in 2024. The decline was primarily a result of unfavorable currency exchange rates.
Provision for income taxes was $10.0 million (24% of income before income tax) in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $9.7 million (23% of income before income tax) during the same period in 2024. The increase in tax rate for the first quarter of 2025 was largely due to the release of a valuation allowance in first quarter of 2024, which provided a benefit in that quarter.
The Company’s net income after tax was $31.8 million or $2.64 per share on a diluted basis for the first quarter of 2025 compared to $32.1 million or $2.67 per share on a diluted basis for the first quarter of 2024.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
In addition to normal operating expenses, the Company has ongoing cash requirements which are necessary to operate the business, including inventory purchases and capital expenditures. The Company’s accounts receivable, inventory and accounts payable levels, particularly in its Vegetation Management Division, build in the first quarter and early spring and, to a lesser extent, in the fourth quarter in anticipation of the spring and fall selling seasons. Accounts receivable historically build in the first and fourth quarters of each year as a result of pre-season sales and year-round sales programs. These sales, primarily in the Vegetation Management Division, help balance the Company’s production during the first and fourth quarters.
As of March 31, 2025, the Company had working capital of $699.5 million which represents an increase of $32.3 million from working capital of $667.2 million at December 31, 2024. The increase in working capital was due to an increase in accounts receivable and inventory, partially offset by increase in accounts payable.
Capital expenditures were $6.0 million for the first three months of 2025, compared to $6.7 million during the first three months of 2024. The Company expects a capital expenditure level of approximately $30.0 million to $35.0 million for the full year of 2025. The Company will fund any future expenditures from operating cash flows or through our revolving credit facility, described below.
Net cash used for investing activities was $5.9 million during the first three months of 2025 compared to $5.9 million during the first three months of 2024.
Net cash used in financing activities was $8.6 million and net cash provided by financing activities was $77.8 million during the three month periods ended March 31, 2025 and March 31, 2024, respectively. Lower net cash provided by financing activities for the first three months of 2025 relates to no borrowings from the revolver during the three months ended March 31, 2025, while paying down long-term debt and a quarterly dividend.
The Company had $145.5 million in cash and cash equivalents held by its foreign subsidiaries as of March 31, 2025. The majority of these funds are at our European and Canadian facilities. The Company will repatriate European and Canadian cash and cash equivalents as needed to fund operating and investing activities, and will monitor exchange rates to determine the appropriate timing of such repatriation given the current relative value of the U.S. dollar. Repatriated funds will be used to reduce debt levels, and to fund working capital, capital investments, and acquisitions company-wide.
On October 28, 2022, the Company, as Borrower, and each of its domestic subsidiaries as guarantors, entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “2022 Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The 2022 Credit Agreement provides Borrower with the ability to request loans and other
17
financial obligations in an aggregate amount of up to $655.0 million. Under the 2022 Credit Agreement, the Company has borrowed $255.0 million pursuant to a Term Facility, while up to $400.0 million is available to the Company pursuant to a Revolver Facility which terminates in 2027. The Term Facility requires the Company to make equal quarterly principal payments of $3.75 million over the term of the loan, with the final payment of any outstanding principal amount, plus interest, due at the end of the five year term. Borrowings under the 2022 Credit Agreement bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) or a Base Rate (each as defined in the 2022 Credit Agreement), plus, in each case, an applicable margin. The applicable margin ranges from 1.25% to 2.50% for Term SOFR borrowings and from .25% to 1.50% for Base Rate borrowings with the margin percentage based upon the Company's consolidated leverage ratio. The Company must also pay a commitment fee to the lenders ranging between 0.15% to 0.30% on any unused portion of the $400.0 million Revolver Facility. The 2022 Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain two financial covenants, namely, a maximum consolidated leverage ratio and a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio. The Agreement also contains various covenants relating to limitations on indebtedness, limitations on investments and acquisitions, limitations on the sale of properties and limitations on liens and capital expenditures. The Agreement also contains other customary covenants, representations and events of defaults. The expiration date of the 2022 Credit Agreement, including the Term Facility and the Revolver Facility, is October 28, 2027. As of March 31, 2025, $217.5 million was outstanding under the 2022 Credit Agreement, $217.5 million on the Term Facility and zero on the Revolver Facility. On March 31, 2025, $2.8 million of the revolver capacity was committed to irrevocable standby letters of credit issued in the ordinary course of business as required by vendors' contracts resulting in $397.2 million in available borrowings. The Company is in compliance with the covenants under the Agreement as of March 31, 2025.
Management believes the 2022 Credit Agreement along with the Company’s ability to internally generate funds from operations should be sufficient to allow the Company to meet its cash requirements for the foreseeable future. However, future challenges affecting the banking industry and credit markets in general could potentially cause changes to credit availability, which creates a level of uncertainty.
As of March 31, 2025, we believe our financial position remains robust, supported by a strong balance sheet and healthy cash flow from operations. Our available liquidity, comprised of cash and cash equivalents, along with access to undrawn credit facilities, ensures that we are well equipped to meet our operating needs and explore strategic initiatives that could enhance shareholder value. We continuously evaluate our capital allocation strategy, including potentially repurchasing shares under the share repurchase program adopted by the Company and approved by the Board of Directors as announced on October 31, 2024 if it aligns with our strategic priorities and is deemed to be in the best interest of our shareholders. We believe that repurchasing our shares would be a prudent use of capital, provided appropriate market conditions exist.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Critical Accounting Policies
An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made, and if different estimates that reasonably could have been used, or changes in the accounting estimates that are reasonably likely to occur periodically, could materially impact the financial statements. Management believes that of the Company's significant accounting policies, which are set forth in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the 2024 Form 10-K, the policies relating to the business combinations involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity. There have been no material changes to the nature of estimates, assumptions and levels of subjectivity and judgment related to critical accounting estimates disclosed in Item 7 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of the 2024 Form 10-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risks
The Company is exposed to various market risks. Market risks are the potential losses arising from adverse changes in market prices and rates. The Company does not enter into derivative or other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
Foreign Currency Risk
International Sales
A portion of the Company’s operations consists of manufacturing and sales activities in international jurisdictions. The Company primarily manufactures its products in the U.S., U.K., France, Canada, Brazil, and the Netherlands. The Company sells its products primarily in the functional currency within the markets where the products are produced, but certain sales from the Company's U.K. and Canadian operations are denominated in other foreign currencies. As a result, the Company’s financials, specifically the value of its foreign assets, could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in the other markets in which the subsidiaries of the Company distribute their products.
Exposure to Exchange Rates
The Company translates the assets and liabilities of foreign-owned subsidiaries at rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates in effect during the reporting period. Translation adjustments are included in accumulated other comprehensive income within the statement of stockholders’ equity. The total foreign currency translation adjustment for the current quarter increased stockholders’ equity by $10.8 million.
The Company’s earnings are affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar as compared to foreign currencies, predominately in Europe and Canada, as a result of the sales of its products in international markets. Forward currency contracts are used to hedge against the earnings effects of such fluctuations. The result of a uniform 10% strengthening or 10% decrease in the value of the dollar relative to the currencies in which the Company’s sales are denominated would result in a change in gross profit of $3.3 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2025. A stronger U.S. dollar would unfavorably impact gross profit while a weaker U.S. dollar would provide a favorable impact to gross profit. This calculation assumes that each exchange rate would change in the same direction relative to the U.S. dollar. In addition to the direct effects of changes in exchange rates, which include a changed dollar value of the resulting sales, changes in exchange rates may also affect the volume of
20
sales or the foreign currency sales price as competitors’ products become more or less attractive. The Company’s sensitivity analysis of the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates does not factor in a potential change in sales levels or local currency prices.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s long-term debt bears interest at variable rates. Accordingly, the Company’s net income is affected by changes in interest rates. Assuming the current level of borrowings at variable rates and a two percentage point change for the first quarter 2025 average interest rate under these borrowings, the Company’s interest expense would have changed by approximately $1.1 million. To protect the Company's long-term debt from fluctuations in interest rates, the Company may enter into interest rate swaps to mitigate exposure. However, this analysis assumes no such actions. Further this analysis does not consider the effects of the change in the level of overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment.

Based upon the evaluation, the President and Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (Principal Financial Officer) concluded that the Company’s design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the end of the period covered by this report.
