- Lindsay Corporation is a global manufacturer and distributor specializing in irrigation and infrastructure equipment and technology. The company’s core products include Zimmatic™ center pivot and lateral move agricultural irrigation systems; FieldNET™ and FieldWise™ remote irrigation management technologies; FieldNET Advisor™ irrigation scheduling solutions; and industrial Internet of Things (IoT) sensing solutions tailored for agriculture. In the infrastructure segment, Lindsay offers products to enhance road safety and transportation efficiency, including the Road Zipper™ movable barriers, Snoline™ snow and ice management equipment, crash cushions, end terminals, road marking systems, and railroad signals and structures. Lindsay operates internationally with a significant footprint across North America, South America, the Middle East, North Africa (MENA), Australia, and other regions, serving agricultural producers and transportation authorities worldwide. Founded in 1955, the company is headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska.
Recent strategic developments include Lindsay’s acquisition of a 49.9% minority interest in Austria-based Pessl Instruments, completed in early 2025. This partnership integrates Lindsay’s FieldNET irrigation platforms with Pessl’s METOS weather stations and FieldClimate software, enhancing precision agriculture capabilities and expanding Lindsay’s recurring software subscription and data services revenue streams. The collaboration also supports the development of AI-based Smart Pivot Solutions, reinforcing Lindsay’s position as a leading irrigation management and scheduling technology provider. Furthermore, Lindsay announced a new $150 million share repurchase program in late 2025 aimed at disciplined capital allocation. The company experienced increased revenues in fiscal year 2025 driven by growth in irrigation sales across the MENA region, South America, and Brazil, alongside infrastructure segment gains from Road Zipper System projects and road safety product sales. Leadership changes include the retirement of CFO Brian Ketcham and the appointment of Sam Hinrichsen as his successor effective November 2025.
Lindsay’s operations are organized into two main business segments: Irrigation, focusing on agricultural water management and technology solutions; and Infrastructure, concentrating on road safety equipment and transportation infrastructure technology. The firm continues to emphasize innovative AgTech solutions that combine on-farm equipment, in-field sensors, and remote sensing assets to improve agricultural productivity and operational efficiency. Its global presence and diverse product portfolio position Lindsay as a key player in addressing the water management and transportation infrastructure needs of a growing global population.
This comprehensive company profile reflects Lindsay Corporation’s status as a public company traded on the NYSE under the ticker LNN and highlights its ongoing investments in technology, geographic expansion, and shareholder value enhancement initiatives.
