Strategy and growth opportunities

  • Targeting $500M–$700M in sales growth and $7–$12 incremental EPS, aiming for $25–$30 EPS, driven by leadership in infrastructure and agriculture markets with strong secular tailwinds.

  • Focused on infrastructure replacement, energy transition, and technology/data consumption as key growth drivers, leveraging engineering and manufacturing expertise.

  • Investing in capacity expansion, especially in utility infrastructure, to address industry constraints and capture demand through 2027.

  • Agriculture business is cyclical but has strong long-term drivers like food security, population growth, and tech-enabled irrigation solutions.

  • International ag growth expected, especially in Brazil, Middle East, and Africa, with a shift toward more global sales.

Financial performance and capital allocation

  • Operating income and EPS have more than doubled in recent years, despite plateauing net sales, due to disciplined cost management and focus on higher-value opportunities.

  • Strong balance sheet with leverage around 1x, long-dated fixed debt, and nearly $600M in operating cash flow in 2024.

  • Capital allocation prioritizes CapEx for organic growth, selective M&A for strategic fit, and significant shareholder returns via buybacks and dividends.

  • $700M buyback authorization to be executed over 3–4 years, with a commitment to regular annual dividend increases.

  • Margin expansion driven by pricing, operational efficiency, and higher-margin business growth.

Organizational changes and execution

  • Portfolio streamlined to focus on core strengths, eliminating non-core or non-accretive areas.

  • Organization flattened and leadership aligned to improve customer focus and execution on strategic goals.

  • Clear roadmap to $30 EPS, with every employee aligned on value drivers and targets.

  • Capacity investments focused on existing facilities for best ROI, with plans extending to 2027 and expected margin improvements as efficiencies are realized.

  • Balanced capital deployment between CapEx, M&A, buybacks, and dividends, adjusting based on opportunity set and market conditions.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
