Alamo Group Inc. reported a decrease in net sales for the first quarter of 2025 compared to the prior year, but showed sequential improvement from the previous quarter. Despite the sales decline, the company improved its operating margin and gross margin, driven by cost reduction efforts. Net income and diluted EPS remained stable year-over-year.
Net Sales for Q1 2025 were $391.0 million, an 8.1% decrease year-over-year but a 1.5% increase sequentially.
Operating income was $44.5 million, representing an 11.4% margin, an increase of 40 basis points year-over-year and 130 basis points sequentially.
Fully diluted EPS was $2.64 per share, a 13.5% improvement compared to Q4 2024.
Total debt net of cash was significantly reduced to $16.5 million, a 91.7% improvement from Q1 2024.
Alamo Group Inc. anticipates continued strong demand in its Industrial Equipment Division and a return to modest growth in its Vegetation Management Division, with improved profitability expected from cost reduction actions implemented in 2024.
