</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Products </I>- The Company markets its center pivot and lateral move irrigation systems
domestically and internationally under its <I>Zimmatic </I>brand. The Company also manufactures and
markets separate lines of center pivot and lateral move irrigation equipment for use on smaller
fields under its <I>Greenfield </I>and <I>Stettyn </I>brands, and hose reel travelers under the <I>Perrot </I>brand
(<I>Greenfield </I>in the United States). The Company also produces irrigation controls, chemical
injection systems and remote monitoring and control systems which it sells under its <I>GrowSmart</I>
brand. In addition to whole systems, the Company manufactures and markets repair and replacement
parts for its irrigation systems and controls.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s irrigation systems are primarily of the standard sized center pivot type, with a
small portion of its products consisting of the lateral move type. Both are automatic, continuous
move systems consisting of sprinklers mounted on a water carrying pipeline which is supported
approximately 11 feet off the ground by a truss system suspended between moving towers.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A typical center pivot for the U.S. market is approximately 1,250 feet long and is designed to
circle within a quarter-section of land, which comprises 160 acres, wherein it irrigates
approximately 130 to 135 acres. A typical center pivot for the international market is somewhat
shorter than that in the U.S. market. A center pivot or lateral move system can also be custom
designed and can irrigate from 25 to 600&#043; acres. A mini-pivot is a small version of the standard
pivot and is used for smaller fields and/or shorter crops, than that for which standard pivots are
used.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A center pivot system represents a significant investment to a farmer. In a dry land
conversion to center pivot irrigation, approximately one-half of the investment is for the pivot
itself and the remainder is attributable to
installation of additional equipment such as wells, pumps, underground water pipe, electrical
supply and a concrete pad upon which the pivot is anchored.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company also manufactures and distributes mini-pivots and hose reel travelers. These
systems are considered to be relatively easy to operate, and the hose reel travelers are easily
moved from field to field. They are

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">



<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">typically deployed in smaller or irregular fields. Mini-pivots
and hose reel travelers require, on average, a lower investment than a typical standard center
pivot.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company also markets pivot monitoring and control systems, which include remote telemetry
and a web or personal computer hosted data acquisition and monitoring applications. These systems
will allow the grower to monitor their pivot system, accumulate data on the operation of the system
and control the pivot from a remote location by logging onto an internet web site. The pivot
monitoring and control systems are marketed under the GrowSmart brand with product names of
FieldSENTRY and FieldLink.
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Other Types of Irrigation. </I>Center pivot and lateral move irrigation systems compete with three
other types of irrigation: flood, drip, and other mechanical devices such as hose reel travelers.
The bulk of the worldwide irrigation is accomplished by the traditional method of flood irrigation.
Flood irrigation is accomplished by either flooding an entire field, or by providing a water
source (ditches or a pipe) along the side of a field, which is planed and slopes slightly away from
the water source. The water is released to the crop rows through gates in the ditch or pipe, or
through siphon tubes arching over the ditch wall into some of the crop rows. It runs down through
the crop row until it reaches the far end of the row, at which time the water source is moved and
another set of rows are flooded. A significant disadvantage or limitation of flood irrigation is
that it cannot be used to irrigate uneven, hilly, or rolling terrain or fields. In &#147;drip&#148; or &#147;low
flow&#148; irrigation, perforated plastic pipe or tape is installed on the ground or buried underground
at the root level. Several other types of mechanical devices, such as hose reel travelers, irrigate
the remaining irrigated acres.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Center pivot, lateral move, and hose reel traveler irrigation offers significant advantages
when compared with other types of irrigation. It requires less labor and monitoring; can be used
on sandy ground which, due to poor water retention ability, must have water applied frequently; can
be used on uneven ground, thereby allowing previously unsuitable land to be brought into
production; can also be used for the application of fertilizers, insecticides, herbicides, or other
chemicals (termed &#147;chemigation&#148;); and conserves water and chemicals through precise control of the
amount and timing of the application.
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Markets &#151; General. </I>Water is an essential and critical requirement for crop production, and the
extent, regularity, and frequency of water application can be a critical factor in crop quality and
yield.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The fundamental factors which govern the demand for center pivot and lateral move systems are
essentially the same in both the domestic and international markets. Demand for center pivot and
lateral move systems is determined by whether the value of the increased crop production
attributable to center pivot or lateral move irrigation exceeds any increased costs associated with
purchasing, installing, and operating the equipment. Thus, the decision to purchase a center pivot
or lateral move system, in part, reflects the profitability of agricultural production, which is
determined primarily by the prices of agricultural commodities and the costs of other farming
inputs.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The current demand for center pivot systems has three sources: conversion to center pivot
systems from less water efficient, more labor intensive types of irrigation; replacement of older
center pivot systems, which are beyond their useful lives or technologically outmoded; and
conversion of dry land farming to irrigated farming. In addition, demand for center pivots and
lateral move irrigation equipment depends upon the need for the particular operational
characteristics and advantages of such systems in relation to alternative types of irrigation,
primarily flood. More efficient use of the basic natural resources of land, water, and energy
helps drive demand for center pivot and lateral move irrigation equipment. Increasing global
population not only increases demand for agricultural output, but also places additional and
competing demands on land, water, and energy. The Company expects demand for center pivots and
lateral moves to continue to increase relative to other irrigation methods because center pivot and
lateral move systems are required where the soil is sandy, the terrain is not flat, there is a
shortage of reliable labor, water supply is restricted and conservation is critical, and/or
chemigation will be utilized.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>United States Market. </I>In the United States, the Company sells its branded irrigation systems,
including <I>Zimmatic</I>, to approximately 200 independent dealer locations, who resell to their
customer, the farmer. Dealers assess their customer&#146;s requirements, assemble and erect the system
in the field from the parts delivered from the Company, and provide additional system components,
primarily relating to water supply (wells, pumps, pipes) and
electrical supply (on-site generation or hook-up to power lines). Lindsay dealers generally are
established local agri-businesses, many of which also deal in related products, such as well
drilling and water pump equipment, farm implements, grain handling and storage systems, or farm
structures. The Company also has a small number of direct sales agents that sell the <I>Greenfield</I>
and <I>GrowSmart </I>branded products directly to the end-users.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>International Market. </I>Over the years, the Company has sold center pivot and lateral move
irrigation systems throughout the world. The Company has production and sales operations in
France, Brazil, South Africa and China serving the key European, South American, South Africa and
China markets, respectively. The Company exports its

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">equipment from the U.S. to other
international markets. The majority of the Company&#146;s U.S. export sales are denominated in U.S.
dollars and is shipped against prepayments or U.S. bank confirmed irrevocable letters of credit or
other secured means.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s international markets differ significantly with respect to the need for
irrigation, the ability to pay, demand, customer type, government support of agriculture, marketing
and sales methods, equipment requirements, and the difficulty of on-site erection. The Company&#146;s
industry position is such that it believes that it will likely be approached as a potential
supplier for most major international agricultural development projects utilizing center pivot or
lateral move irrigation systems.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<I>Competition. </I>The U.S. center pivot irrigation systems industry has seen significant
consolidation of manufacturers over the years; four primary manufacturers remain today. The
international market includes participation and competition by the leading U.S. manufacturers as
well as certain regional manufacturers. The Company competes in certain product lines with several
manufacturers, some of whom may have greater financial resources than the Company. The Company
competes by continuously improving its products through ongoing research and development
activities. The Company&#146;s engineering and research expenses totaled $2.7&nbsp;million, $2.7&nbsp;million,
and $2.9&nbsp;million for fiscal years 2006, 2005, and 2004, respectively. There is a level of price
competition and utilization of seasonal promotional programs. Competition also occurs in areas of
product quality and durability, product characteristics, retention and reputation of local dealers,
customer service, and, at certain times of the year, the availability of systems and their delivery
time. The Company believes it generally competes favorably with respect to these factors.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Products </I>&#150; <I>Quickchange Moveable Barrier </I>&#150; The Company&#146;s Quickchange Moveable Barrier system is
composed of three parts: 1) T-shaped concrete barriers that are connected to form a continuous
wall, 2) a Barrier Transfer Machine (&#147;BTM&#148;) capable of moving the barrier laterally across the
pavement, and 3) the variable length barrier necessary for transferring barriers within a narrow
radius. A barrier is 32 inches high, 18-24 inches wide and 3 feet long and weighs 1,500 pounds.
The concrete barriers are interconnected by steel hinges to form a continuous barrier. The BTM
employs an inverted S-shaped conveyor mechanism that lifts the barrier, moving it laterally before
setting it back on the pavement. In permanent applications BSI&#146;s moveable barrier systems increase
capacity and reduce congestion by varying the number of traffic lanes to match the traffic demand.
Roadways with fixed medians have a set number of lanes in each direction and cannot adjust to
traffic demands that may change over the course of a day, or to capacity reductions caused by
traffic incidents or road repair and maintenance. Applications include high volume highways where
expansion may not be feasible due to lack of additional right-of-way, environmental concerns, or
insufficient funding. The moveable barrier is particularly useful in busy commuter corridors and
at choke points such as bridges and tunnels. Moveable barriers can also be deployed at roadway or
roadside construction sites to accelerate construction, improve traffic flow and safeguard work
crews and motorists by positively separating the work area and traffic. Examples of types of work
completed with the help of a moveable barrier system include highway reconstruction, paving and
resurfacing, road widening, median and shoulder construction, and repairs to tunnels and bridges.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company offers an equipment lease option on its moveable barrier system and accompanying
transfer machine used in construction applications. The leases extend for periods of three months
and greater for equipment already existing in inventory, and a minimum of one year if equipment
needs to be built for specific projects.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;These systems have been in use in the United States for almost 20&nbsp;years. They have also been
used in several foreign countries, with progress made in recent years introducing the product in
Europe. Typical sales for a project are $2.0-$15.0&nbsp;million, making them significant capital
projects.
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Crash Cushions &#150; </I>BSI offers a family of redirective and non-redirective crash cushions. These
crash cushion systems are usually placed at fixed hazards such as toll booths, freeway off-ramps,
medians, bridge supports and utility poles. The Company offers the redirective Universal TAU-II
system and the non-redirective ABSORB 350. The crash cushions compete with other vendors in the
world market. These products are highway safety products generally made of steel and plastic.
These systems are generally sold through a distribution channel that works in particular geographic
areas selling and potentially installing these systems. These systems typically sell in the range
of $5,000-$20,000; however, multiple units may be installed on a project.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s sales are primarily in the U.S. but progress is being made in overseas markets.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Markets </I>&#150; The U.S. highway infrastructure market has annual expenditures of over $50&nbsp;billion and
includes projects such as new roadway construction, bridges, tunnels, maintenance and resurfacing,
and the purchase of right-of-ways for roadway expansion and development of technologies for relief
of roadway congestion. BSI&#146;s primary market includes portable concrete barriers, delineation
systems, guardrails and similar protective equipment. Much of the U.S. highway infrastructure
market is driven by government spending programs. For example, the U.S. government funds highway
and road improvements through the Federal Highway Program. This program provides funding to
improve the nation&#146;s roadway system. Matching funding from the various states may be required as a
condition of federal funding. New federal highway program legislation was enacted in 2005, which
the Company believes provides a solid platform for future growth of this market. Governments and
communities desire to improve road and highway systems by reducing
traffic congestion.</div>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Competition </I>&#150; The Company competes in certain product lines with several manufacturers, some of
whom may have greater financial resources than the Company. The Company competes by continuously
improving its products through ongoing research and development activities. The Company competes
with certain products and companies in its crash cushion business, but has limited competition in
its barrier line, as there is not another moveable barrier product today comparable to the
Company&#146;s system. However, the Company&#146;s barrier product does compete with the traditional poured
concrete and sand barrel applications. In addition, the Company continues to expand its
Infrastructure products into contract manufacturing. The Company continues to develop new
relationships for Infrastructure manufacturing in industries outside of agriculture and irrigation.
The Company&#146;s customer base includes certain large industrial companies. Each benefits from the
Company&#146;s design and engineering capabilities as well as the Company&#146;s ability to provide a wide
spectrum of manufacturing services, including welding, machining, painting, forming, galvanizing
and hydraulic, electrical, and mechanical assembly.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Distribution methods and channels </I>&#150; BSI&#146;s sales efforts consist of both direct sales and sales
programs managed by its network of distributors and third-party representatives. BSI&#146;s sales team
located throughout the U.S. has responsibility for new business development and assisting
distributors and dealers in soliciting large projects and new customers. The distributor and
dealer networks have exclusive territories and are responsible for developing sales and providing
service, including product maintenance, repair and installation. The typical dealer sells an array
of safety supplies, road signs, crash cushions, delineation equipment and other highway equipment.
BSI&#146;s customers include State Departments of Transportation, municipal transportation road
agencies, roadway contractors, subcontractors, distributors and dealers. Due to the project nature
of the roadway construction and congestion management markets, the Company&#146;s customer base changes
from year-to-year. Due to the limited life of projects, it is rare that a single customer will
account for the highest concentration of revenues in consecutive years. The customer base is also
dependent on the type of product sold. The Company&#146;s moveable barrier products are typically sold
to transportation agencies or the contractors or suppliers serving those agencies. In contrast,
distributors account for a majority of crash cushion sales since those products have lower price
points and tend to have shorter lead times.

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>General</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Certain information generally applicable to both of the Company&#146;s reportable segments is set
forth below.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>SEASONALITY</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Irrigation equipment sales are seasonal by nature. Farmers generally order systems to be delivered
and installed before the growing season. Shipments to U. S. customers usually peak during the
Company&#146;s second and third quarters for the spring planting period. Sales of infrastructure
products are traditionally higher during prime construction seasons and lower in the winter. The
primary construction season in North America is from March until late September.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>CUSTOMERS</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company is not dependent for a material part of either segment&#146;s business upon a single
customer or upon very few customers. The loss of any one customer would not have a material
adverse effect on the Company&#146;s financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>ORDER BACKLOG</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As of August&nbsp;31, 2006, the Company had an order backlog of $26.8&nbsp;million, an increase of 88% from
$14.2&nbsp;million at August&nbsp;31, 2005. The $12.6&nbsp;million increase in order backlog was primarily
attributable to the increase in the infrastructure backlog due to the acquisition of BSI in June,
2006. The irrigation backlog increased by $2.2&nbsp;million or 25% over the prior year. At fiscal year
end 2006, the Company had an $11.2&nbsp;million order backlog for irrigation equipment, compared to $9.0
million at fiscal year end 2005. At fiscal year end 2006, order backlog for infrastructure
products totaled $15.6&nbsp;million, compared to $5.2&nbsp;million at fiscal year end 2005. The Company
expects that the existing backlog of orders will be filled in fiscal 2007.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Generally, the Company manufactures or purchases the components for its irrigation equipment
from a sales forecast and prepares the equipment for shipment upon the receipt of a U.S. or
international dealer&#146;s firm order. Orders from U.S. dealers are accompanied with a down payment
unless they are purchasing through a Company financing program. Orders being delivered to
international markets from the U.S. are generally shipped against prepayments or receipt of an
irrevocable letter of credit confirmed by a U.S. bank or other secured means, which call for
delivery within time periods negotiated with the customer. Orders delivered from the Company&#146;s
international manufacturing operations are generally shipped according to payment and/or credit
terms customary to that country or region.
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>RAW MATERIALS AND COMPONENTS</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Raw materials used by the Company include coil steel, angle steel, plate steel, zinc, tires,
gearboxes, concrete, rebar, fasteners, and electrical and hydraulic components (motors, switches,
cable, valves, hose and stators). The Company has, on occasion, faced shortages of certain such
materials. The Company believes it currently has ready access to adequate supplies of raw
materials and components.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>CAPITAL EXPENDITURES</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Capital expenditures for fiscal 2006, 2005, and 2004 were $3.6&nbsp;million, $4.1&nbsp;million and $5.0
million, respectively. Fiscal 2006 capital expenditures were used primarily for updating
manufacturing plant and equipment, expanded manufacturing capacity, and to further automate the
Company&#146;s facilities. Capital
expenditures for fiscal 2007 are expected to be approximately $6.0 to $7.0&nbsp;million and will be used
primarily to improve the Company&#146;s existing facilities, expand its manufacturing capabilities,
integrate acquired business and increase productivity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, AND LICENSES</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Lindsay&#146;s <I>Zimmatic</I>, <I>Greenfield</I>, <I>GrowSmart, Quickchange Moveable Barrier, ABSORB 350, Universal
TAU-II, and SafeGuard </I>and other trademarks are registered or applied for in the major markets in
which the Company sells its products. Lindsay follows a policy of applying for patents on all
significant patentable inventions. Although the Company believes it is important to follow a patent
protection policy, Lindsay&#146;s business is not dependent, to any material extent, on any single
patent or group of patents.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>EMPLOYEES</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The number of persons employed by the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries at fiscal year ends
2006, 2005, and 2004 were 763, 645, and 639, respectively. None of the Company&#146;s U.S. employees
are represented by a union. Certain of the Company&#146;s foreign employees are unionized due to local
governmental regulations.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>ENVIRONMENTAL AND HEALTH AND SAFETY MATTERS</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Like other manufacturing concerns, the Company is subject to numerous laws and regulations that
govern environmental and occupational health and safety matters. The Company believes that its
operations are substantially in compliance with all such applicable laws and regulations. The
Company, in 1992, entered into a consent decree with the Environmental Protection Agency of the
U.S. federal government concerning its Lindsay, Nebraska facility, which is included in the
agency&#146;s Superfund sites as discussed in Note N to the consolidated financial statements. Permits
are or may be required for some of the operations at its facilities. Although management believes
that all currently required permits have been obtained by the Company, as with all such permits,
they are subject to revocation, modification, and renewal. Even where regulations or standards
have been adopted, they are subject to varying and conflicting interpretations and implementation.
In some cases, compliance with applicable environmental regulations or standards may require
additional capital and operational expenditures. Management does not believe that these matters,
individually or in the aggregate, are likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company&#146;s
consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>SUBSIDIARIES</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company has six wholly owned operating subsidiaries: Lindsay Transportation, Inc., Lindsay
Europe SAS, Irrigation Specialists, Inc., Lindsay America do Sul Ltda., Lindsay Manufacturing
Africa (PTY)&nbsp;Ltd., and Barrier Systems, Inc.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Lindsay Transportation, Inc. was formed in 1975. It owns approximately 110 trailers and,
through lease of tractors and arrangements with independent drivers, supplies the ground
transportation in the United States and Canada for the Company&#146;s products and the bulk of incoming

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Lindsay Europe SAS, located in France, was acquired in March&nbsp;2001, and is a manufacturer and
marketer of irrigation equipment for the European market.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Irrigation Specialists, Inc., a retail irrigation dealership in Washington State, was acquired
in March&nbsp;2002.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Lindsay America do Sul Ltda., located in Brazil, was acquired in April&nbsp;2002 and is a
manufacturer and marketer of irrigation equipment for the South American market.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Lindsay Manufacturing Africa (PTY)&nbsp;Ltd, located in South Africa, was organized in September
2002 and is a manufacturer and marketer of irrigation equipment for the southern African market.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Barrier Systems, Inc. is located in Rio Vista, California and manufactures its moveable
barrier products along with other specialty barriers and crash cushions. BSI also performs
full-scale impact testing of product onsite in accordance with National Cooperative Highway
Research Program (&#147;NCHRP&#148;) 350 guidelines. The NCHRP 350 guidelines are procedures required by the
U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration for the safety performance
evaluation of highway features. BSI has been in business since 1984 and was acquired by Lindsay in
June&nbsp;2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company also has three non-operational subsidiaries.
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC OPERATIONS</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s primary production facility is located in the United States, but it also has smaller
production facilities in France, Brazil, and South Africa. Most financial transactions are in U.S.
dollars, although sales from the Company&#146;s foreign subsidiaries, which were less than 11% of total
consolidated Company sales in fiscal 2006, are conducted in local currencies.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A portion of the Company&#146;s cash flow is derived from sales and purchases denominated in
foreign currencies. To reduce the uncertainty of foreign currency exchange rate movements on these
sales and purchase commitments, the Company monitors its risk of foreign currency fluctuations. To
date, the Company has not entered into any foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge any risk to
foreign currency. For information on international revenues, see Note Q to the Consolidated
Financial Statements entitled &#147;Industry Segment Information&#148; included in Item&nbsp;8 of Part&nbsp;II of this
report.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>The Company&#146;s domestic and international irrigation equipment sales are highly dependent on the
agricultural industry. </B>The Company&#146;s domestic and international irrigation equipment sales are
highly dependent upon the need for irrigated agricultural crop production which, in turn, depends
upon many factors, including total worldwide crop production, the profitability of agricultural
crop production, agricultural commodity prices, aggregate net cash farm income, governmental
policies regarding the agricultural sector, water and energy conservation policies, the regularity
of rainfall, and foreign currency exchange rates. As farm income decreases, farmers may postpone
capital expenditures or seek less expensive used irrigation equipment.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>The Company&#146;s infrastructure revenues are highly dependent on Federal and State funding of
transportation projects</B>. The demand for the Company&#146;s infrastructure products depends to a large
degree on the amount of government spending authorized to improve road and highway systems. For
example, the U.S. government funds highway and road improvements through the Federal Highway
Program and matching funding
from the states that may be required as a condition of federal funding. If highway funding is
reduced or delayed, it may reduce demand for the Company&#146;s infrastructure products.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>The Company&#146;s profitability may be negatively affected by increases in the cost of raw materials,
labor, and energy. </B>Certain of the Company&#146;s operating costs, such as the cost of steel, zinc, and
other raw materials may increase rapidly from time to time. Because there is a level of price
competition in the market for irrigation equipment and certain infrastructure products, the Company
may not be able to recoup increases in these costs through price increases for its products, which
would result in reduced profitability. Whether increased operating costs can be passed through to
the customer depends on a number of factors, including farm income and the price of competing
products. The cost of raw materials can be volatile and is dependent on a number of factors,
including availability, demand, and freight costs.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>The Company&#146;s international irrigation equipment sales are highly dependent on foreign market
conditions. </B>Approximately 26% of the Company&#146;s revenues are generated from international sales.
Specifically, international revenues are primarily generated in Australia, Canada, Central and
Western Europe, Mexico, the Middle East, South Africa, China, and Central and South America. In
addition to risks relating to general economic and political stability in these countries, the
Company&#146;s international sales are affected by international trade barriers, including governmental
policies on tariffs, taxes, and foreign currency exchange rates. International sales are also more
susceptible to disruption from political instability and similar incidents.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Compliance with applicable environmental regulations or standards may require additional capital
and operational expenditures. </B>Like other manufacturing concerns, the Company is subject to
numerous laws and regulations which govern environmental and occupational health and safety
matters. The Company believes that its operations are substantially in compliance with all such
applicable laws and regulations. Permits are or may be required

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">for some of the operations at its
facilities. Although management believes that all currently required permits have been obtained by
the Company, as with all such permits, they are subject to revocation, modification, and renewal.
Even where regulations or standards have been adopted, they are subject to varying and conflicting
interpretations and implementation. The Company, in 1992, entered into a consent decree with the
Environmental Protection Agency of the U.S. federal government concerning its Lindsay, Nebraska
facility, which is included in the agency&#146;s Superfund sites as discussed in Note N to the
consolidated financial statements. Compliance with applicable environmental regulations or
standards may require additional capital and operational expenditures. Management does not believe
any future material capital and operational expenditures for such issues are required.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The site was added to the EPA&#146;s list of priority
superfund sites in 1989 as discussed in Note N to the consolidated financial statements. Between
1993 and 1995, remediation plans for the site were approved by the EPA and fully implemented by the
Company. Since 1998, the primary remaining contamination at the site has been the presence of
volatile organic chemicals in the groundwater. In 2003, a second five year review of the status of
the remediation of the contamination of the site was conducted by the Company and the EPA. As a
result of this review, the EPA issued a letter placing the Company on notice that additional
remediation actions were required. The Company and its environmental consultants have completed
and submitted a supplemental remedial action work plan that, when implemented, will allow the
Company and the EPA to better identify the boundaries of the contaminated groundwater and will
allow the Company and the EPA to more effectively assure that the contaminated groundwater is being
contained by current and planned additional wells that pump and aerate it. The Company has been
able to reasonably estimate the cost of completing the remediation actions defined in the
supplemental remedial action work plan. Related liabilities recognized were $218,000 at August&nbsp;31,
2006, and $129,000 at August&nbsp;31, 2005.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B><I>Concerning Forward-Looking Statements </I></B>- This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains not only
historical information, but also forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section&nbsp;27A of
the Securities Act of 1933 and Section&nbsp;21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Statements that
are not historical are forward-looking and reflect expectations for future Company performance. In
addition, forward-looking statements may be made orally or in press releases, conferences, reports,
on the Company&#146;s worldwide web site, or otherwise, in the future by or on behalf of the Company.
When used by or on behalf of the Company, the words &#147;expect&#148;, &#147;anticipate&#148;, &#147;estimate&#148;, &#147;believe&#148;,
&#147;intend&#148;, and similar expressions generally identify forward-looking statements. The entire
section entitled Market Conditions and Fiscal 2007 Outlook should be considered forward-looking
statements. For these statements, the Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for
forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties, including but not
limited to those discussed in the &#147;Risk Factors&#148; section contained in Item&nbsp;1. Readers should not
place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement and should recognize that the statements are
predictions of future results which may not occur as anticipated. Actual results could differ
materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking
statements and from historical results, due to the risks and uncertainties described herein,
as well as others not now anticipated. The risks and uncertainties described herein are not
exclusive and further information concerning the Company and its businesses, including factors that
potentially could materially affect the Company&#146;s financial results, may emerge from time to time.
Except as required by law, the Company assumes no obligation to update forward-looking statements
to reflect actual results or changes in factors or assumptions affecting such forward-looking
statements.
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B><I>Overview- </I></B>The Company manufactures and markets <I>Zimmatic, Greenfield, Stettyn, </I>and <I>Perrot </I>center
pivot, lateral move, and hose reel irrigation systems. The Company also produces irrigation
controls, chemical injection systems and remote monitoring and control systems which it sells under
its <I>GrowSmart </I>brand. These products are used by farmers to increase or stabilize crop production
while conserving water, energy, and labor. The Company sells its irrigation products primarily to
a world-wide independent dealer network, who resell to their customer, the farmer. The Company
also has a small number of direct sales agents that sell the <I>Greenfield </I>and <I>GrowSmart </I>branded
products directly to the farmer. The Company&#146;s principal manufacturing facilities are located in
Lindsay, Nebraska, USA. The Company also has production facilities in France, South Africa, and
Brazil. The Company also manufactures and markets infrastructure products, including movable
barriers for lane management to reduce traffic congestion and improve safety, through its wholly
owned subsidiary, BSI. In addition, the Company produces crash cushions and specialty barriers to
improve motorist and highway worker safety, large diameter steel tubing, and provides outsourced
manufacturing and production services for other companies.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Key factors which impact demand for the Company&#146;s irrigation products include agricultural
commodity prices, crop yields, weather, environmental regulations, and interest rates. Demand for
the Company&#146;s irrigation products increased during fiscal 2006. Higher commodity prices,
stabilized farm input costs, and continued drought conditions in the West and Plains regions in the
United States increased demand for irrigation systems. International sales were primarily impacted
by the same factors affecting the domestic market. A key factor which impacts demand for the
Company&#146;s infrastructure products is the amount of spending authorized by governments to improve
road and highway systems. Much of the U.S. highway infrastructure market is driven by government
spending programs. For example, the U.S. government funds highway and road improvements through
the Federal Highway Program. This program provides funding to improve the nation&#146;s roadway system.
Matching funding from the various states may be required as a condition of federal funding.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company will continue to focus on opportunities for growth both organically and through
attractive acquisitions. On June&nbsp;1, 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of Barrier
Systems, Inc. The acquisition reflects the execution of the Company&#146;s strategy to build up the its
infrastructure business with more proprietary infrastructure products. The Company sees
opportunities to create shareholder value through manufacturing synergies, supporting BSI&#146;s
expansion in the U.S., and in international expansion where the Company can provide support through
its local entities. With BSI added to the Company&#146;s previously-existing infrastructure business,
the Company has significantly enhanced its position in the road and railroad infrastructure
markets.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Over the past five years, the Company has added the operations in Europe, South America, and
South Africa. The addition of those operations has allowed the Company to strengthen its market
position in those regions, yet they remain relatively small in scale. None of the international
operations has achieved the operating leverage of the United States based operations.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On July&nbsp;13, 2006, the FASB issued interpretation 48 (&#147;FIN 48&#148;), Accounting for Uncertainty in
Income Taxes-an Interpretation of FASB Statement No 109. The Interpretation provides a consistent
recognition threshold and measurement attribute, as well as clear criteria for recognizing,
derecognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions for financial statement purposes. The
Interpretation also requires expanded disclosure with respect to the
uncertainty in income tax positions. FIN 48 will be effective beginning its fiscal year 2008.
Management is currently assessing the effect of this pronouncement on the Company&#146;s consolidated
financial statements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In September&nbsp;2006, the FASB issued SFAS No.&nbsp;157, &#147;Fair Value Measurements&#148;, which defines fair
value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting
principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 is effective in fiscal
years beginning after November&nbsp;15, 2007. Management is currently evaluating the impact that the
adoption of this statement will have on the Company&#146;s consolidated financial statements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In September&nbsp;2006, the FASB issued SFAS No.&nbsp;158, &#147;Employers&#146; Accounting for Defined Pension
and Other Postretirement Plans&#148;. This Statement requires recognition of the funded status of a
single-employer defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of
financial position. Funded status is determined as the difference between the fair value of plan
assets and the benefit obligation. Changes in that funded status should be recognized in other
comprehensive income. This recognition provision and the related disclosures are effective as of
the end of the fiscal year ending after December&nbsp;15, 2006. The Statement also requires the
measurement of plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the fiscal year-end statement
of financial position. This measurement provision is effective for fiscal years ending after
December&nbsp;15, 2008. Management is currently assessing the effect of this pronouncement on the
Company&#146;s consolidated financial statements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On September&nbsp;13, 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (&#147;SEC&#148;) issued Staff Accounting
Bulletin No.&nbsp;108 (&#147;SAB 108&#148;) which provides interpretive guidance on how the effects of the
carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying a current
year misstatement. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending after November&nbsp;15, 2006. The
Company does not expect this pronouncement to have a material impact on the Company&#146;s consolidated
financial statements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On September&nbsp;7, 2006, the Task Force reached consensus on EITF Issue No.&nbsp;06-4, Accounting for
Deferred Compensation and Postretirement Benefit Aspects of Endorsement Split-Dollar Life Insurance
Arrangements (&#147;EITF 06-4&#148;). The scope of EITF 06-4 is limited to the recognition of a liability
and related compensation costs for endorsement split-dollar life insurance arrangements that
provide a benefit to an employee that extends to postretirement periods. EITF 06-4 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2007. The Company does not expect it to have a
material impact on the Company&#146;s consolidated financial statements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On September&nbsp;7, 2006, the Task Force reached a conclusion on EITF Issue No.&nbsp;06-5, Accounting
for Purchases of Life Insurance &#150; Determining the Amount That Could Be Realized in Accordance with
FASB Technical Bulletin No.&nbsp;85-4, Accounting for Purchases of Life Insurance. The scope of EITF
06-5 consists of three separate issues relating to accounting for life insurance policies purchased
by entities protecting against the loss of &#147;key persons.&#148; The three issues are clarifications of
previously issued guidance on FASB Technical Bulletin No.&nbsp;85-4. EITF 06-5 is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December&nbsp;15, 2006. The Company does not expect it to have a material impact
on the Company&#146;s consolidated financial statements.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Critical Accounting Policies</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (&#147;GAAP&#148;), management must make a variety of
decisions which impact the reported amounts and the related disclosures. Such decisions include the
selection of the appropriate accounting principles to be applied and the assumptions on which to
base accounting estimates. In reaching such decisions, management applies judgment based on its
understanding and analysis of the relevant circumstances. Certain of the Company&#146;s accounting
policies are critical, as these policies are most important to the presentation of the Company&#146;s
consolidated results of operations and financial condition. They require the greatest use of
judgments and estimates

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"> by management based on the Company&#146;s historical experience and management&#146;s
knowledge and understanding of current facts and circumstances. Management periodically
re-evaluates and adjusts the estimates that are used as circumstances change. During the second
quarter of fiscal 2006, the Company reevaluated its revenue recognition policy and removed it from
its critical accounting policies. This decision was made because there is not a significant amount
of estimation or judgment used in determining revenue recognition. During the first quarter of
fiscal 2006 the Company adopted SFAS 123(R). Management does not consider this a critical
accounting policy, and there were no other significant changes in the Company&#146;s critical accounting
policies during fiscal 2006.

is determined by the weighted average method for inventories at the Company&#146;s other operating
locations. At all locations, the Company reserves for obsolete, slow moving, and excess inventory
by estimating the net realizable value based on the potential future use of such inventory.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Revenues</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Operating revenues for fiscal 2006 increased by $48.7&nbsp;million or 27% from fiscal 2005. This
increase was attributable to a 24% increase in irrigation equipment revenues and a 54% increase in
the infrastructure products segment.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Domestic irrigation revenues increased $29.7&nbsp;million or 28% over fiscal 2005. The increase in
revenues was primarily a result of an increase in the volume of units shipped during the year. In
addition, price increases implemented during the year increased revenues. Demand was generally
affected by improving domestic farmer sentiment. Increased ethanol production continued to support
the increase in corn prices experienced during fiscal 2006. Recent USDA estimates place corn usage
for ethanol at approximately 18% of total corn usage for the 2006-2007 crop year and 34% higher
than in the previous year. There are now more than 100 ethanol biorefineries operating in the
U.S., and more than 50 either under construction or expanding. Continued dry conditions in the
western United States and stabilized crop prices have created a stronger market for irrigation
equipment.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;International irrigation revenues increased $7.7&nbsp;million or 15% over fiscal 2005. Most of the
international revenue increase was realized in Latin America (excluding Brazil), China, Australia,
New Zealand, and the Middle East. The agricultural sector in Brazil remains depressed, in spite of
the Brazilian government&#146;s announced support plans which include debt extensions, lower interest
rates and higher debt limits. During fiscal 2006, the Company experienced revenue growth in China.
While the Company has been selling in China for a few years, in fiscal 2006 the Company realized
the benefits of a greater appreciation of its technology and government funding in support of
efficient irrigation technology.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Infrastructure products segment revenues increased by $11.3&nbsp;million or 54% compared to
fiscal 2005. On June&nbsp;1, 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of Barrier Systems, Inc.
(&#147;BSI&#148;) a manufacturer of movable barrier systems and road safety products. This acquisition added
$10.3&nbsp;million of sales during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2006. The acquisition reflects the
execution of the Company&#146;s strategy to build up its infrastructure manufacturing

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">



<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">business with more
proprietary infrastructure products. BSI has been a customer of the Company&#146;s infrastructure
products segment for many years, and the Company sees exciting opportunities to create shareholder
value through manufacturing synergies, supporting BSI&#146;s expansion in the United States, and in
international expansion where the Company can provide support through its local entities. With the
addition of BSI, the Company continues to build its infrastructure revenues through proprietary
products, commercial tubing, and selected contract manufacturing.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In total international revenues were 26% of total revenues for fiscal 2006 as compared to
29% for fiscal 2005.
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Gross Margin</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Gross margin was 21.3% for fiscal 2006 compared to 18.9% for fiscal 2005. The improved margins
resulted from the inclusion of higher margin BSI products, stronger effective pricing on irrigation
equipment, and higher factory volume as compared to the prior year. During the fiscal year,
the Company experienced rapidly rising costs in zinc and copper, which are approximately 11% and 4%
respectively, of the cost of a standard irrigation pivot. At the same time, steel costs remained
relatively stable. The Company believes that the stabilization of major input costs, such as
steel, zinc and copper, will create an opportunity for further strengthening of irrigation and
infrastructure gross margins. The Company proactively responded to the rising costs by
passing-through multiple price increases on its products. The environment for passing-through and
retaining those price increases was improved over fiscal 2005 due to overall higher product demand.
The Company expects to be able to maintain or further increase prices which should allow it to
realize margin improvements as material costs stabilize. In addition, the Company is realizing
benefits from manufacturing and scheduling improvements implemented at the Lindsay, Nebraska
facility. The Company experienced improvements resulting from the higher volume and from the lean
manufacturing principles implemented.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Operating Expenses</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s operating expenses for fiscal 2006 increased $4.7&nbsp;million or 17% over fiscal
2005. The increase in operating expenses for the year is primarily attributable to the inclusion
of share based compensation expense of $1.7&nbsp;million and the inclusion of $1.8&nbsp;million of operating
expenses relating to BSI in the fourth quarter.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Interest Income, Other Income, and Taxes</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net interest income during the fiscal year ended August&nbsp;31, 2006 of $1.4&nbsp;million increased 19% from
the $1.2&nbsp;million earned during fiscal 2005. The increase is primarily the result of higher
interest rates during 2006 when compared to the average interest rate earned in the prior year.
Increased interest income in 2006 was partially offset by the interest expense incurred in 2006 on
a $30.0&nbsp;million term note used for the acquisition of BSI in June of 2006.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Other income, net during the fiscal year ended August&nbsp;31, 2006 increased $230,000 when
compared to the same period in fiscal 2005. This increase primarily resulted from gains from a
foreign government grant to the Company&#146;s South Africa subsidiary and higher other miscellaneous
income in the fiscal year 2006 compared to the same prior year period. These gains were offset by
a loss of other income from a 39% minority ownership in the Canadian dealership due to the sale of
this interest on September&nbsp;1, 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s effective tax rate for the income tax provision was 32.8% for the fiscal year
ended August&nbsp;31, 2006 compared to 30.4% in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to a
higher U.S. statutory rate due to the increase in taxable income, the continued phase-out of the
extraterritorial income exclusion, lower federal tax-exempt interest income and higher state and
local tax rates due to the increase in the number of state filings resulting from the BSI
acquisition. These increases were partially offset by the qualified export activity, domestic
production deduction included in the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 and a non-recurring tax
benefit.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This non-recurring tax benefit of approximately $436,000 included a credit adjustment of
$65,000 of prior estimated federal and state tax liabilities, a credit adjustment of $404,000 of
prior estimated deferred tax assets and liabilities due to the Company&#146;s recently completed IRS
Examination offset by a $32,000 tax expense resulting from the Company&#146;s recently completed state
examination. This benefit reduced the Company&#146;s effective tax rate by 2.5 points for the fiscal
year ended August&nbsp;31, 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Overall, the Company benefits from a U.S. effective tax rate which is lower than the combined
federal and state statutory rates primarily due to the qualified export activity and domestic
production deductions and the federal tax-exempt interest income on its investment portfolio.
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Net Earnings</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net earnings were $11.7&nbsp;million, or $1.00 per diluted share, for fiscal 2006, compared with $4.8
million, or $0.41 per diluted share, for fiscal 2005. The adoption of SFAS 123(R) had a negative
net of tax effect on earnings of $1.1&nbsp;million or $0.09 per diluted share.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Operating revenues for fiscal 2005 declined by $19.4&nbsp;million or 10% from fiscal 2004. The decline
was attributable to decreased irrigation equipment revenues, partially offset by an increase in
infrastructure manufacturing revenues.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Domestic irrigation revenues declined by $27.4&nbsp;million or 21% from fiscal 2004. The decline
in domestic irrigation revenue was due to a decline in unit volume of approximately 35% as compared
to prior year, which was partially offset by an increase in the selling price of irrigation
equipment of approximately 10%. Management believes that a combination of factors contributed to
the lower demand for irrigation equipment
during the year. These factors include generally lower agricultural commodity prices, higher
farm input costs, and a reduction in drought conditions. The price of corn declined approximately
10%, cotton declined approximately 8% and soybeans remained flat, from the same time last year. In
addition, strong U.S. harvests are expected for this fall season. While ethanol demand continues
to drive corn usage higher, ending inventories for corn are expected to remain high. The overall
growing conditions for farmers throughout most of the United States remained favorable. The
drought conditions experienced in much of the West and Plains regions were greatly alleviated. The
combination of these factors and higher costs for energy, fertilizer and other farm inputs
contributed to reduced demand for products such as irrigation equipment, which represent
substantial capital expenditures.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;International irrigation revenues remained flat in fiscal 2005 at $50.8&nbsp;million compared to
$50.9&nbsp;million in fiscal 2004.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">contributed additional revenues during the year. This
increase in revenue was partially offset by many of the same factors affecting domestic sales of
irrigation equipment, including the negative effects of depressed agricultural commodity prices.
In addition, the lower value of the United States dollar relative to local currencies continues to
negatively impact farmers&#146; profitability due to the fact that world commodity prices are
denominated in US dollars and a depressed U.S. dollar yields less local currency revenue for
farmers.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Infrastructure manufacturing revenues increased $8.1&nbsp;million or 63% compared to fiscal 2004.
Revenues grew in both contract manufacturing and commercial tubing. The Company continued to
develop new relationships for infrastructure manufacturing in industries outside of agriculture and
irrigation. Additionally, the Company pursued incremental growth paths for its commercial tubing
business.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In total international revenues were 29% of total revenues for fiscal 2005 as compared to 26%
for fiscal 2004.
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Gross Margin</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Gross margin was 18.9% for fiscal 2005 compared to 20.1% for fiscal 2004. The decrease in gross
margin is primarily attributable to the significant reduction in unit volume offset by product
price increases implemented in 2004 that were designed to pass&#150;through the steel cost increases
that occurred in the prior year. Towards the end of the 2005 fiscal year, the Company experienced
a slight reduction in steel costs from the high level of fiscal 2004. In addition, gross margins
for fiscal 2005 were negatively affected by the field repair campaign announced during the fourth
quarter, which decreased pre-tax earnings by $1.5&nbsp;million. Company-wide cost reduction actions
have partially offset lower domestic unit volumes and contributed to improved international and
infrastructure manufacturing margins.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Operating Expenses</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s operating expenses for fiscal 2005 increased $596,000 or 2% over fiscal 2004.
Operating expenses were positively affected by cost reduction efforts during the year, but these
savings were largely offset by incremental operating expenses of $217,000 incurred at the Stettyn
operation which was acquired in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004. In addition, the Company
incurred additional costs related to Sarbanes-Oxley compliance of approximately $800,000 higher
than 2004. Finally, 2004 operating expenses included a non-recurring bad debt charge related to
the insolvency of a Kansas dealership of $724,000.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Fiscal 2005 net interest income of $1.2&nbsp;million was a decrease of $277,000 as compared to 2004.
This decrease primarily reflects a reduction of interest income from securities due to smaller
balances held in marketable securities and higher balances in interest bearing accounts earning a
lower interest rate. The Company&#146;s interest income is primarily generated from its investments in
short-term (0 to 12&nbsp;months) and intermediate-term (12 to 42&nbsp;months) investment grade municipal
bonds, on which interest earnings are exempt from federal income taxes, and short-term investment
grade commercial paper.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Fiscal 2005 other income of $273,000 was comparable to fiscal 2004. Other income was
primarily the result of higher net earnings from minority equity investments.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The effective tax rate during fiscal 2005 was 30.4% compared to 32.5% for fiscal 2004. The
decreased effective tax rate reflects a higher percentage of tax deductions compared to net income
before taxes for fiscal year 2005 compared to the same period in 2004. Overall, the Company
benefits from a U.S. effective tax rate which is lower than the combined federal and state
statutory rates primarily due to the federal tax-exempt interest income from its municipal bond
investments.
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Net Earnings</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Net earnings were $4.8&nbsp;million, or $.41 per diluted share, for fiscal 2005, compared with $9.3
million, or $.78 per diluted share, for fiscal 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Liquidity and Capital Resources</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company requires cash for financing its receivables and inventories, paying operating costs and
capital expenditures, and for dividends. Historically, the Company has met its liquidity needs and
financed all capital expenditures exclusively from its available cash and funds provided by
operations.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s cash and marketable securities totaled $59.3&nbsp;million at August&nbsp;31, 2006 compared
with $54.8&nbsp;million at August&nbsp;31, 2005. The Company&#146;s marketable securities consist primarily of
tax exempt investment grade municipal bonds.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cash flows provided by operations totaled $14.4&nbsp;million during the fiscal year ended August
31, 2006, compared to $11.8&nbsp;million provided by operations during the same prior year period. The
$2.6&nbsp;million increase in cash flows provided by operations was primarily due to a $6.9&nbsp;million
increase in cash provided by net income, $2.1&nbsp;million increase in cash provided by accounts
payable, $8.9&nbsp;million increase in cash provided by current liabilities, $1.7&nbsp;million increase in
cash provided by stock-based compensation expense and $1.6&nbsp;million increase in cash provided by
current taxes payable. This cash increase was partially offset by a $11.4&nbsp;million increase in cash
used by receivables, $2.9&nbsp;million increase in cash used by inventory, and $2.5&nbsp;million increase in
cash used by deferred income taxes and a $2.0&nbsp;million decrease in cash provided by noncurrent
assets and liabilities.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cash flows used in investing activities totaled $24.2&nbsp;million during the fiscal year ended
August&nbsp;31, 2006 compared to cash flows provided by investing activities of $13.2&nbsp;million during the
same prior year period. This increase in use of cash was primarily due to the acquisition of
Barrier Systems Inc. on June&nbsp;1, 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Capital expenditures were $3.6&nbsp;million and $4.1&nbsp;million during the fiscal years ended August
31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Capital expenditures were used primarily for updating
manufacturing plant and equipment, expanding manufacturing capacity, and further automating the
Company&#146;s facilities. Capital expenditures for fiscal 2007 are expected to be approximately $6.0
to $7.0&nbsp;million and will be used to improve the Company&#146;s existing facilities, expand its
manufacturing capacities, integrate acquired business and increase productivity.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Cash flows provided by financing activities totaled $27.6&nbsp;million during the fiscal year ended
August&nbsp;31, 2006 compared to $8.6&nbsp;million used during the same prior year period. The increase in
cash provided by financing is due primarily to the long-term note payable of $30.0&nbsp;million, which
was used primarily in connection with the acquisition of BSI.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s European subsidiary, Lindsay Europe, has an unsecured revolving line of credit
with a commercial bank under which it could borrow up to 2.3&nbsp;million Euros, which equates to
approximately USD $3.0&nbsp;million, for working capital purposes. As of August&nbsp;31, 2006, there was no
outstanding balance on this line. Under the terms of the line of credit, borrowings, if any, bear
interest at a floating rate in effect from time to time designated by the commercial bank as Euro
LIBOR&#043;200 basis points, (5.0% at August&nbsp;31, 2006).
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company entered into an unsecured $30&nbsp;million Term Note and Credit Agreement, each
effective as of June&nbsp;1, 2006, with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (collectively, the &#147;Credit Agreement&#148;) to
partially finance the acquisition of BSI. In addition, the Company entered into an interest rate
swap transaction with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest
at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 50 basis points. However, this variable interest rate has been
converted to a fixed rate of 6.05% through the interest rate swap transaction. Principal is repaid
quarterly in equal payments of $1.1&nbsp;million over a seven year period commencing September, 2006.
The Credit Agreement contains certain covenants, including covenants relating to Lindsay&#146;s
financial condition. Upon the occurrence of any event of default specified in the Credit Agreement,
including a change in control of the Company (as defined in the Credit Agreement), all amounts due
thereunder may be declared to be immediately due and payable. As of August&nbsp;31, 2006, the Company
is in compliance with all covenants.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company believes its current cash resources (including cash and marketable securities
balances), projected operating cash flow, and bank lines of credit are sufficient to cover all of
its expected working capital needs, planned capital expenditures, dividends, and other cash
requirements, excluding potential acquisitions.
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>Inflation</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company is subject to the effects of changing prices. During fiscal 2006, the Company realized
stabilized pricing for purchases of certain commodities, in particular steel products, used in the
production of its products. While the cost outlook for commodities used in the Company&#146;s
production of its products is not certain,
management believes it can manage these inflationary pressures by introducing appropriate sale
price adjustments and by actively pursuing internal cost reduction efforts, while further refining
the Company&#146;s inventory and raw materials risk management system.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company has certain off balance sheet arrangements as described in Note P to the consolidated

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Improved agricultural commodity prices and continued drought conditions in the United States
are favorable drivers for the Company&#146;s irrigation equipment. Globally, long-term drivers remain
positive as population growth, the need for productivity improvements and fresh water constraints
drive demand for the Company&#146;s efficient irrigation technology. In addition, the Company expects
the federal highway program legislation enacted in 2005 to have a favorable impact on the
infrastructure segment in fiscal 2007. The Company will continue to create shareholder value
by pursuing a balance of acquisitions, organic growth opportunities, share repurchases and dividend
payments.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>ITEM 7A &#150; </B><B><I>Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk</I></B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The market value of the Company&#146;s investment securities fluctuates inversely with movements in
interest rates because all of these debt instruments bear interest at fixed rates. Accordingly,
during periods of rising interest rates, the market value of these securities will decline.
However, the Company does not consider itself to be subject to material market risks with respect
to its portfolio of investment securities because the maturity of these securities is relatively
short, making their value less susceptible to interest rate fluctuations.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As a result of the $30.0&nbsp;million credit facility, the Company had interest rate risk due to
the variable rate interest of this debt. The Company entered into the interest-rate swap derivative
instrument to manage its exposure on its debt instrument. The Company does not enter into
derivative instruments for any purpose other than cash-flow-hedging purposes. That is, the Company
does not speculate using derivative instruments.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company has manufacturing operations in the United States, France, Brazil, and South
Africa. The Company sells products throughout the world and purchases certain of its components
from foreign suppliers. Export sales made from the United States are principally U.S. dollar denominated.
Accordingly, these sales are not subject to significant currency transaction risk. However,
revenues generated from operations outside the United States are generally denominated in local
currencies. The Company&#146;s most significant transactional foreign currency exposures are the Euro,
Brazilian real, and the South African rand in relation to the U.S. dollar. Fluctuations in the
value of foreign currencies create exposures which can adversely affect the Company&#146;s results of
operations. The Company attempts to manage its transactional foreign exchange exposure by
monitoring foreign currency cash flow forecasts and commitments arising from the settlement of
receivables and payables, and from future purchases and sales. However, the Company does not
actively hedge its foreign currency risk through swaps or similar instruments.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">To the Board of Directors and Shareholders<BR>
Lindsay Manufacturing Co.:

</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Lindsay Manufacturing Co. and
subsidiaries (the Company) as of August&nbsp;31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements
of operations, shareholders&#146; equity and comprehensive income, and cash flows for each of the years
in the three-year period ended August&nbsp;31, 2006. In connection with our audits of the consolidated
financial statements, we also have audited the financial statement schedule listed in Item&nbsp;15(a)(2)
of this Form 10-K. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the
responsibility of the Company&#146;s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for
our opinion.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Lindsay Manufacturing Co. and subsidiaries as of
August&nbsp;31, 2006 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the
years in the three-year period ended August&nbsp;31, 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when
considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents
fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As discussed in Note R to the consolidated financial statements, the Company changed its method of
accounting for stock based compensation effective September&nbsp;1, 2005
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States), the effectiveness of the Company&#146;s internal control over financial reporting
as of August&nbsp;31, 2006, based on criteria established in Internal Control &#150; Integrated Framework
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our
report dated November&nbsp;10, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion on management&#146;s assessment of, and
the effective operation of, internal control over financial reporting.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Lindsay Manufacturing Co. (the &#147;Company&#148; or &#147;Lindsay&#148;) manufactures automated agricultural
irrigation systems and sells these products in both the U.S. and international markets. The Company
also manufactures and markets infrastructure products including movable barriers for lane
management to reduce traffic congestion and improve safety. In addition, the Company produces
crash cushions and specialty barriers to improve motorist and highway worker safety, large diameter
steel tubing, and provides outsourced manufacturing and production services for other companies.
The Company&#146;s principal manufacturing facilities are located in Lindsay, Nebraska, USA. The
Company&#146;s corporate office is located in Omaha, Nebraska, USA. The Company also has foreign
operating subsidiaries which manufacture irrigation equipment in France, Brazil, and South Africa,
and owns a retail irrigation dealership with three separate retail locations based in the eastern
Washington state region. The Company also has a location in Rio Vista, California. This location
manufactures and markets the movable and specialty barriers and crash cushions.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Notes to the consolidated financial statements describe various elements of the financial
statements and the accounting policies, estimates, and assumptions applied by management. While
actual results could differ from those estimated at the time of preparation of the consolidated
financial statements, management believes that the accounting policies, assumptions, and estimates
applied promote the representational faithfulness, verifiability, neutrality, and transparency of
the accounting information included in the consolidated financial statements.
</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The significant accounting policies of the Company are as follows:
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>(1)&nbsp;Principles of Consolidation</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries.
Significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>(2)&nbsp;Stock Based Compensation</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">On September&nbsp;1, 2005, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;123
(revised 2004), &#147;Share-Based Payment,&#148; (&#147;SFAS 123(R)&#148;) which requires the measurement and
recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and
directors based on estimated fair values. The Company uses the straight-line amortization method
over the vesting period of the awards. SFAS 123(R) supersedes the Company&#146;s previous accounting
under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.&nbsp;25, &#147;Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees&#148; (&#147;APB
25&#148;) for periods beginning in fiscal 2006. In March&nbsp;2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission
issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No.&nbsp;107 (&#147;SAB 107&#148;) relating to SFAS 123(R). The Company has
applied the provisions of SAB 107 in its adoption of SFAS 123(R).
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>(3)&nbsp;Revenue Recognition</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Revenues from the sale of the Company&#146;s irrigation products to its independent dealers are
recognized upon delivery of the product to the dealer. The Company has no post delivery
obligations to its independent dealers other than standard warranties. Revenues for retail sales
of irrigation products are recognized when the product or service is delivered to the end-user
customers. Revenues from the sale of infrastructure products are recognized when the product is
delivered to the customer. The Company is a lessor for the infrastructure products that it leases
to customers. Revenues for the lease of infrastructure products are recognized ratably over the
lease term. Revenues and gross profits on intercompany sales are eliminated in consolidation.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The costs related to revenues are recognized in the same period in which the specific revenues
are recorded. Shipping and handling revenue is reported as a component of operating revenues.
Shipping and handling costs are reported as a component of cost of operating revenues. Shipping
and handling revenues and costs are not significant to total operating revenues or cost of
operating revenues. Customer rebates, cash discounts, and other sales incentives are recorded as a
reduction of revenues at the time of the original sale. Other sales incentives such as guarantees
issued by the Company to support end-user customer financing are recognized as cost of sales.
Estimates used in the recognition of operating revenues and cost of operating revenues include, but
are not limited to, estimates for rebates payable and cash discounts expected.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Provision for the estimated warranty costs is made in the period in which such costs become
probable. This provision is periodically adjusted to reflect actual experience.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Warranty costs were $1.5&nbsp;million, $2.7&nbsp;million, and $1.5&nbsp;million for the fiscal years ended
August&nbsp;31, 2006, 2005, and 2004, respectively. Warranty costs decreased $1.2&nbsp;million in fiscal
year 2006 compared to the same period in 2005 primarily due to a voluntary repair campaign relating
to the end gun solenoid valves on Zimmatic irrigation systems in fiscal year 2005.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Cash equivalents are included at cost, which approximates market. At August&nbsp;31, 2006, the Company&#146;s
cash equivalents were held primarily by one financial institution. The Company considers all
highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents,
while those having original maturities in excess of three months are classified as marketable
securities or as long-term marketable securities when maturities are in excess of one year.
Marketable securities and long-term marketable securities consist of investment-grade municipal
bonds.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;At the date of acquisition of an investment security, management designates the security as
belonging to a trading portfolio, an available-for-sale portfolio, or a held-to-maturity portfolio.
Currently, the Company holds no securities designated as held-to-maturity or trading. All
investment securities are classified as available-for-sale and carried at fair value. Unrealized
appreciation or depreciation in the fair value of available-for-sale securities is reported in
accumulated other comprehensive income, net of related income tax effects. The Company monitors
its investment portfolio for any decline in fair value that is other-than-temporary and records any
such impairment as an impairment loss. No impairment losses for other-than-temporary declines in
fair value have been recorded in fiscal years 2006, 2005, or 2004. In the opinion of management,
the Company is not subject to material market risks with respect to its portfolio of investment
securities because of the investment grade quality of the securities and the maturities of these
securities are relatively short, making their value less susceptible to interest rate fluctuations.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>(6)&nbsp;Inventories</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the last-in,
first-out (LIFO)&nbsp;method for the Company&#146;s Lindsay, Nebraska inventory. Cost is determined by the
weighted average method for inventories at the Company&#146;s retail stores in Washington State and its
production facilities in France, Brazil, and South Africa. Costs are determined on the first-in,
first-out (FIFO)&nbsp;method by the Company&#146;s Barrier Systems, Inc. subsidiary and the warehouse in
China. At all locations, the Company reserves for obsolete, slow moving, and excess inventory by
estimating the net realizable value based on the potential future use of such inventory.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>(7)&nbsp;Property, Plant and Equipment</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Property, plant, equipment, and capitalized lease assets are stated at cost. The Company&#146;s policy
is to capitalize major expenditures and to charge to operating expenses the cost of current
maintenance and repairs. Provisions for depreciation and amortization have been computed
principally on the straight-line method for buildings and equipment. Rates used for depreciation
are based principally on the following expected lives: buildings &#151; 15 to 30&nbsp;years; temporary
structures &#151; 5&nbsp;years; equipment &#151; 3 to 10&nbsp;years; leased machines &#151; 5 to 10&nbsp;years; leased
barriers &#151;5 to 12&nbsp;years; other &#151; 2 to 20&nbsp;years and leasehold improvements &#150; shorter of the
economic life or term of the lease. All of the Company&#146;s long-lived assets are reviewed for
impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be
recoverable. If the sum of the expected discounted future cash flows is less than the carrying
amount of the asset, a loss is recognized based upon the difference between the fair value of the
asset and its carrying value. The cost and accumulated depreciation relating to assets retired or
otherwise disposed of are eliminated from the respective accounts at the time of disposition. The
resulting gain or loss is included in operating income in the consolidated statements of
operations.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>(8)&nbsp;Equity Investments</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company held a 39% minority investment in an irrigation dealership based outside of the United
States. This investment was accounted for on the equity method. On September&nbsp;1, 2005, the Company
sold its minority position in the irrigation dealership. The Company recognized an immaterial gain
from the sale of the dealership.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During fiscal 2004, due to the insolvency and liquidation of a Kansas irrigation dealership in
which the Company held a 25% minority interest, the Company wrote-off the value of the investment
which was deemed to be immaterial. The Company also incurred a bad debt charge during fiscal 2004
of $724,000 and a $250,000 charge relating to bank guarantees associated with this dealership.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired in
a business combination. Acquired intangible assets are recognized separately from goodwill.
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are tested for impairment at least
annually at the reporting unit level using a two-step
impairment test. The Company updated its impairment evaluation of goodwill and intangible assets
with indefinite useful lives at August&nbsp;31, 2006. No impairment losses were indicated as a result
of the annual impairment testing. The estimates of fair value of its reporting units and related
goodwill depend on a number of assumptions, including forecasted sales growth and improved
operating expense ratios. To the extent that the reporting unit is unable to achieve these
assumptions, impairment losses may emerge. Intangible assets which have identifiable useful lives
are amortized over the term of their useful lives.
</DIV>

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Basic net earnings per share are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number
of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings per share includes the incremental
dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock units, which under the treasury stock method
are determined to be dilutive.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company had additional stock options outstanding during the period, but these options were
excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because they were not dilutive, as set
forth in the following table:

Income Taxes-an Interpretation of FASB Statement No 109. The Interpretation provides a consistent
recognition threshold and measurement attribute, as well as clear criteria for recognizing,
derecognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions for financial statement purposes. The
Interpretation also requires expanded disclosure with respect to the uncertainty in income taxes.
FIN 48 will be effective beginning its fiscal year 2008. Management is currently assessing the

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;During June&nbsp;2004, the Company&#146;s subsidiary, Lindsay Manufacturing Africa (PTY)&nbsp;Ltd acquired
the assets of Stettyn, a manufacturer of center pivots in South Africa, for $1.0&nbsp;million in cash.
Stettyn specializes in standard height, four-inch pivot systems designed for the growing market
segment of farmers who want an economical irrigation system with smaller parcels of land. The
Company&#146;s allocation of purchase price for this acquisition consisted of inventory of $560,000,
fixed assets of $265,000, receivables of $465,000, and other current liabilities of $265,000. Pro
forma data is not presented for the Stettyn acquisition, as the amounts are considered immaterial.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On June&nbsp;1, 2006, Lindsay completed the acquisition of Barrier Systems, Inc. (&#147;BSI&#148;) and its
subsidiary Safe Technologies, Inc. through the merger of a wholly owned subsidiary of Lindsay with
and into BSI (the &#147;Merger&#148;). As a result, BSI has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Lindsay.
BSI is engaged in the manufacture of roadway barriers and traffic flow products that are used to
reduce traffic congestion and enhance safety.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total cash merger consideration paid to the stockholders of BSI and holders of options to
acquire BSI stock was $35.0&nbsp;million. Of the cash merger consideration, $3.5&nbsp;million was held in
escrow to secure the indemnification obligations of the shareholders and option holders of BSI and
$1.0&nbsp;million was held in escrow pending calculation of the final merger consideration based on the
adjusted net assets of BSI at closing. After completion of the closing balance sheet the purchase
price was reduced by approximately $1.2&nbsp;million related to the net asset test discussed above. The
Company funded the payment of the merger consideration using a combination of its own working
capital and borrowing under a new credit agreement. The results of operations of BSI have been
included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for year ended August
31, 2006 from the date of the acquisition. The total purchase price has been preliminarily
allocated to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired based on management&#146;s
estimates of current fair values. The resulting goodwill and other intangible assets will be
accounted for under SFAS No.&nbsp;142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (&#147;SFAS No.&nbsp;142&#148;).

consist of customer relationships of $2.9&nbsp;million, non-compete agreements of $1.6&nbsp;million, and a

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more
likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The
ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable
income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. The Company
considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and
tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Management does not believe there are
significant uncertainties surrounding realization of the deferred tax assets, and, consequently,
has not provided a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets at August&nbsp;31, 2006 and 2005.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company&#146;s foreign subsidiaries had deferred tax assets of $888,000 and $301,000 at August
31, 2006 and 2005 as shown above. This is comprised principally of temporary differences for
property and equipment, inventory, and other items.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><I>The American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the &#147;Jobs Act&#148;).</I>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;On October&nbsp;22, 2004, the Jobs Act was enacted, which directly impacts the Company in several
areas.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company currently takes advantage of the extraterritorial income exclusion (&#147;EIE&#148;) in the
calculation of its federal income tax liability. The Jobs Act repealed the EIE, the benefits of
which will be phased out over the next three years, with 80% of the prior benefit allowed in 2005,
60% in 2006 and 0% allowed in any year after 2006. The Company reported an EIE of $319,000 and
$287,000 at fiscal years ended 2006 and 2005, respectively. The Jobs Act replaced the EIE with the
new &#147;manufacturing deduction&#148; that allows a deduction from taxable income of up to 9% of &#147;qualified
production activities income&#148; not to exceed taxable income. The deduction is phased in over a
nine-year period, with the eligible percentage increasing from 3% in 2005 to 9% in 2010. The
Company reported a $520,000 manufacturing deduction for fiscal year 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Jobs Act includes a foreign earnings repatriation provision that provides an 85% dividends
received deduction for certain dividends received from controlled foreign corporations. The
Company does not intend to repatriate earnings of its foreign subsidiaries and accordingly, under
APB Opinion No.&nbsp;23, &#147;Accounting for Income Taxes-Special Areas&#148; has not recorded deferred tax
liabilities for repatriated foreign earnings. However, the Company continues to analyze the
potential tax impact should it elect to repatriate foreign earnings pursuant to the Jobs Act;
currently the amount is not determinable.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s marketable securities consist of investment-grade municipal bonds. Marketable
securities may mature earlier than their weighted-average contractual maturities because of
principal prepayments.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>M. CREDIT ARRANGEMENTS</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company&#146;s European subsidiary, Lindsay Europe, has an unsecured revolving line of credit with a
commercial bank under which it could borrow up to 2.3&nbsp;million Euros, which equates to approximately
USD $3.0&nbsp;million, for working capital purposes. As of August&nbsp;31, 2006, there was no outstanding
balance on this line. Under the terms of the line of credit, borrowings, if any, bear interest at
a floating rate in effect from time to time designated by the commercial bank as Euro LIBOR&#043;200
basis points, (5.0% at August&nbsp;31, 2006).
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company entered into an unsecured $30&nbsp;million Term Note and Credit Agreement, each
effective as of June&nbsp;1, 2006, with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (collectively, the &#147;Credit Agreement&#148;) to
partially finance the acquisition of BSI. In addition, the Company entered into an interest rate
swap transaction with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest
at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 50 basis points. However, this variable interest rate has been
converted to a fixed rate of 6.05% through the interest rate swap transaction. Principal is repaid
quarterly in equal payments of $1.1&nbsp;million over a seven year period commencing September, 2006.
The Credit Agreement contains certain covenants, including covenants relating to Lindsay&#146;s
financial condition. Upon the occurrence of any event of default specified in the Credit Agreement,
including a change in control of the Company (as defined in the Credit Agreement), all amounts due
thereunder may be declared to be immediately due and payable.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company entered into the interest-rate swap derivative instrument to manage its exposure
on its debt instrument. The Company does not enter into derivative instruments for any purpose
other than cash-flow-hedging purposes. That is, the Company does not speculate using derivative
instruments.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company uses variable-rate debt to finance its operations. The debt obligations expose the
Company to variability in interest payments due to changes in interest rates. Management believes
that it is prudent to limit the variability of a portion of its interest payments. To meet this
objective, management entered into an interest rate swap agreement to manage fluctuations in cash
flows resulting from interest rate risk. The swap changes the variable-rate cash flow exposure on
the debt obligations to fixed cash flows. Under the terms of the interest rate swap, the Company
receives variable interest rate payments and makes fixed interest rate payments, thereby creating
the equivalent of fixed-rate debt. Changes in the fair value of interest rate swap designated as a
hedging instrument that effectively offset the variability of cash flows associated with
variable-rate, long-term debt obligations are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income.
For the year ended August&nbsp;31, 2006, there were no amounts recorded in the statement of operations
for ineffectiveness of the hedged instrument.

</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In 1992, the company entered into a consent decree with the Environmental Protection Agency of
the United States Government (&#147;the EPA&#148;) in which it committed to remediate environmental
contamination of the groundwater that was discovered in 1982 through 1990 at and adjacent to its
Lindsay, Nebraska facility (&#147;the site&#148;). The site was added to the EPA&#146;s list of priority
superfund sites in 1989. Between 1993 and 1995, remediation plans for the site were approved by
the EPA and fully implemented by the Company. Since 1998, the primary remaining contamination at
the site has been the presence of volatile organic chemicals in the groundwater. In 2003, a second
five year review of the status of the remediation of the contamination of the site was conducted by
the Company and the EPA. As a result of this review, the EPA issued a letter placing the Company
on notice that additional remediation actions were required. The Company and its environmental
consultants have completed and submitted a supplemental remedial action work plan that, when
implemented, will allow the Company and the EPA to better identify the boundaries of the
contaminated groundwater and will allow the Company and the EPA to more effectively assure that the
contaminated groundwater is being contained by current and planned wells that pump and aerate it.
The Company has been able to reasonably estimate the cost of completing the remediation actions
defined in the supplemental remedial action work plan. Related liabilities recognized were
$218,000 at August&nbsp;31, 2006, and $129,000 at August&nbsp;31, 2005.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><I>Guarantees of Customer Equipment Financing</I>

</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In the normal course of its business, the Company has arranged for unaffiliated financial
institutions to make favorable financing terms available to end-user purchasers of the Company&#146;s
irrigation equipment. In order to facilitate these arrangements, the Company provides limited
recourse guarantees or full guarantees to the financial institutions on these equipment loans. All
of the Company&#146;s customer-equipment recourse guarantees are collateralized by the value of the
equipment being financed. The estimated maximum potential future payments to be made by the
Company on these guarantees equaled $1.6&nbsp;million, $2.2&nbsp;million and $3.7&nbsp;million at August&nbsp;31,
2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company maintains an agreement with one financial institution under which it guarantees
the financial institution&#146;s total pool of financing agreements with end users. Under this
guarantee, the Company&#146;s exposure is limited to unpaid principal and interest where the first
and/or second annual customer payments on individual loans in the pool have not yet been made as
and when due. The maximum exposure on this pool guarantee is equal to 2.75% of the aggregate
original principal balance of the loans in the pool and equaled approximately $0.8&nbsp;million, $1.3
million and $1.5&nbsp;million at August&nbsp;31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The Company will no
longer provide new guarantees under this arrangement. The Company continues to guarantee loans in
the pool of record as of February&nbsp;28, 2006. The guarantee will be released as payments are made
against those loans.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Separately, the Company provides guarantees on specific customer loans made by two
unaffiliated financial institutions, including the institution for which the pool guarantee is
provided. Generally, the Company&#146;s exposure on these specific customer guarantees is limited to
unpaid principal and interest on customer payments that have not been made as and when due. In
some cases, the guarantee may cover all scheduled payments of a loan. The amount of these
guarantees of specific customer loans equaled approximately $0.8&nbsp;million at August&nbsp;31, 2006,
approximately $0.9&nbsp;million at August&nbsp;31, 2005 and $2.2&nbsp;million at August&nbsp;31, 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company recorded, at estimated fair value, deferred revenue of $25,000 at August&nbsp;31, 2006,
compared to $69,000 at August&nbsp;31, 2005 and $83,000 at August&nbsp;31, 2004, classified with other
current liabilities, for these guarantees. The estimated fair values of these guarantees are
primarily based on the Company&#146;s experience with these guarantee agreements and related
transactions. The Company recognizes the revenue for the estimated fair value of the guarantees
ratably over the respective terms of the guarantees. Separately, related to these guarantees, the
Company has accrued a liability of $110,000, $190,000, and $290,000 at August&nbsp;31, 2006 and 2005,
and August&nbsp;31, 2004, respectively, also classified with other current liabilities, for estimated
losses on such guarantees.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company had guaranteed three bank loans and a standby letter of credit on behalf of the
irrigation dealership based in Kansas in which the Company previously held a minority equity
investment position. By the end of the second quarter fiscal 2005, all underlying bank loans
guaranteed had been paid in full for approximately $250,000 and the guarantees released.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The warranty accrual increased approximately $1.5&nbsp;million in the
fourth quarter of fiscal year 2005 due to a voluntary repair campaign relating to the end gun
solenoid valves on Zimmatic irrigation systems.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>Q. INDUSTRY SEGMENT INFORMATION</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company manages its business activities in two reportable segments:
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Irrigation: This segment includes the manufacture and marketing of center pivot, lateral
move, and hose reel irrigation systems. The irrigation segment consists of six operating segments
that have similar economic characteristics and meet the aggregation criteria of SFAS No.&nbsp;131.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Infrastructure: This segment includes the manufacture and marketing of movable barriers,
specialty barriers and crash cushions; providing outsource manufacturing services and the
manufacturing and selling of large diameter steel tubing. The infrastructure segment consists of
two operating segments that have similar economic characteristics and meet the aggregation criteria
of SFAS No.&nbsp;131.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The accounting policies of the two reportable segments are described in the &#147;Accounting
Policies&#148; section of Note A. The Company evaluates the performance of its operating segments based
on segment sales, gross profit, and operating income, with operating income for segment purposes
excluding general and administrative expenses (which include corporate expenses), engineering and
research expenses, interest income net, other income and expenses, and income taxes. Operating
income for segment purposes does include selling expenses and other overhead charges directly
attributable to the segment. There are no inter-segment sales. Because the Company utilizes many
common operating assets for its irrigation and infrastructure segments, it is not practical to
separately identify assets by reportable segment. In addition the Company does not consider assets
in evaluation of segment performance. Similarly, other segment reporting proscribed by FAS 131 is
not shown as this information can not be reasonably disaggregated by segment and is not utilized by
the Company&#146;s management.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company has no single major customer representing 10% or more of its total revenues during
fiscal 2006, 2005, or 2004.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Summarized financial information concerning the Company&#146;s reportable segments is shown in the
following table:

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><B>R. SHARE BASED COMPENSATION</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective transition method, which
requires the application of the accounting standard as of September&nbsp;1, 2005, the first day of the
Company&#146;s fiscal year 2006. The Company&#146;s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year
ended August&nbsp;31, 2006 reflects the impact of SFAS 123(R). In accordance with the modified
prospective transition method, the Company&#146;s consolidated financial statements for prior periods
have not been restated to reflect, and do not include, the impact of SFAS 123(R). Share-based
compensation expense recognized under SFAS 123(R) for the year ended August&nbsp;31, 2006 was $1.1
million, net of tax. The share-based compensation expense is taxed at a blended
deferred rate of 37.9%.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;SFAS 123(R) requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment option awards
on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is
ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense in the Company&#146;s Consolidated Statement of
Operations over the periods during which the employee or director is required to perform service in
exchange for the award. Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company accounted for
share-based awards to employees and directors using the intrinsic value method in accordance with
APB 25. Under the intrinsic value method, no stock-based compensation expense was recognized in
the Company&#146;s Consolidated Statement of Operations, because the exercise price of the stock options
granted to employees and directors equaled the fair market value of the underlying stock at the
date of grant.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under SFAS 123(R), share-based compensation expense recognized during an
accounting period equals the value of the portion of share-based awards that is expected to vest
during the period. Share-based compensation expense recognized in the Company&#146;s Consolidated
Statement of Operations for the year ended August&nbsp;31, 2006, included compensation expense for
share-based compensation awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of August&nbsp;31, 2005, based
on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the pro forma provisions of SFAS 123 and
compensation expense for the share-based payment awards granted subsequent to August&nbsp;31, 2005 based
on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R).
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model (&#147;Black-Scholes model&#148;) as
its valuation method for share-based payment option awards. Under the Black-Scholes model, the
fair value of share-based payment option awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model
is affected by the Company&#146;s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly
complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to the Company&#146;s
expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee
stock option exercise behaviors. The restricted stock units granted to employees and directors
under the 2006 Plan have a grant date fair value equal to the fair market value of the underlying
stock on the grant date less present value of expected dividends.

</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Basic net income per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted-average
number of common shares and dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.
Dilutive potential common shares consist of stock options and restricted stock units.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.&nbsp;128, &#147;Earnings per Share,&#148; requires that
employee equity share options, nonvested shares and similar equity instruments granted by the
Company be treated as potential common shares outstanding in computing diluted earnings per share.
Diluted shares outstanding include the dilutive effect of in-the-money options, which is
calculated, based on the average share price for each fiscal period using the treasury stock
method. Under the treasury stock method, the amount the employee must pay for

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><I>Share Based Compensation Program Descriptions</I>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Share based compensation is designed to reward employees for their long-term contributions to
the Company and provide incentives for them to remain with the Company. The number and frequency of
share grants are based on competitive practices, operating results of the Company, and individual
performance. As of August&nbsp;31, 2006, the Company&#146;s share-based compensation plan was the 2006
Long-Term Incentive Plan (the &#147;2006 Plan&#148;). The 2006 Plan was approved by the stockholders of the
Company and became effective on February&nbsp;6, 2006 and replaced the Company&#146;s 2001 Long Term
Incentive Plan. No further grants will be made under the Company&#146;s 2001 Long-Term Incentive Plan
or its former 1991 Long-Term Incentive Plan. However, the Company has outstanding options under
its 2001 and 1991 Long-Term Incentive Plans.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The 2006 Plan provides for awards of stock options, restricted shares, restricted
stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance shares and performance units to employees and
non-employee directors of the Company. The maximum number of shares as to which stock awards may
be granted under the 2006 Plan is 750,000 shares. Stock awards other than stock options will be
counted against the 2006 Plan maximum in a 2 to 1 ratio. If options, restricted stock units or
restricted shares awarded under the 2006 Plan or the 2001 Plan terminate without being fully vested
or exercised, those shares will be available again for grant under the 2006 Plan. The 2006 Plan
also limits the total awards that may be made to any individual. Any options granted under the
2006 Plan would have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock on
the grant date and expire no later than ten years from the grant date. The restricted stock units
granted to employees and directors under the 2006 Plan have a grant date fair value equal to the
fair market value of the underlying stock on the grant date less present value of expected
dividends. The restricted stock units granted to employees vest over a three year period at
approximately 33% per year. The restricted stock units granted to non-employee directors vest over
a nine-month period.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For the year ended August&nbsp;31, 2006 net income before taxes was reduced $1.7&nbsp;million, for
share based compensation, while the net of tax effect on earnings was $1.1&nbsp;million. There was
minimal impact on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows from the adoption of SFAS 123(R).
Diluted earnings per share were negatively affected by $0.09 per share for the year ended August
31, 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The value of each employee stock option was estimated on the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes model for the purpose of the pro forma financial information in accordance with SFAS
123.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes
option valuation model that uses the assumptions noted in the following table. Expected
volatilities are based on historical volatilities of the Company&#146;s stock over the expected life of
the option. The expected volatility assumption was derived by referring to changes in the
Company&#146;s historical common stock prices over the same timeframe as the expected life of the
awards. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination
within the valuation model; groups of employees that have similar historical exercise behavior are
considered separately for valuation purposes. The expected term of options granted is derived from
historical experience and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be
outstanding. The risk-free rate for options is based on a U.S. Treasury rate commensurate with the
expected terms.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The use of the Black-Scholes model requires the use of a number of assumptions including
volatility, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends. There were 45,000, 128,872 and 190,122
stock options granted in the year ended August&nbsp;31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The
weighted-average estimated value of employee stock options granted during the years ended August
31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 were $10.26, $10.51 and $11.07 per share, respectively, with the following
weighted-average assumptions:

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation,
under the supervision and with the participation of the Company&#146;s management, including the
Company&#146;s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design
and operation of the Company&#146;s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rules
13a-15 (e), 15d-15(e) and internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Exchange Act
Rules&nbsp;13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f). Based upon that evaluation, the Company&#146;s Chief Executive Officer

effective in enabling the Company to record, process, summarize and report information required to
be included in the Company&#146;s periodic SEC filings within the required time period.

Lindsay Manufacturing Co.:

</DIV>
<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We have audited management&#146;s assessment, included in the accompanying Management&#146;s Report on
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting appearing under item 9A, that Lindsay Manufacturing Co.
and subsidiaries (the Company) maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of
August&nbsp;31, 2006, based on criteria established in <I>Internal Control&#151;Integrated Framework </I>issued by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company&#146;s
management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and
for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on management&#146;s assessment and an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Company&#146;s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was
maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal
control over financial reporting, evaluating management&#146;s assessment, testing and evaluating the
design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">A company&#146;s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A
company&#146;s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1)
pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the
transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2)&nbsp;provide reasonable assurance that
transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company
are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company;
and (3)&nbsp;provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use, or disposition of the company&#146;s assets that could have a material effect on the
financial statements.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or
detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are
subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that
the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">In our opinion, management&#146;s assessment that the Company maintained effective internal control over
financial reporting as of August&nbsp;31, 2006, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on
criteria established in <I>Internal Control&#151;Integrated Framework </I>issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in
all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of August&nbsp;31, 2006,
based on criteria established in <I>Internal Control&#151;Integrated Framework </I>issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company acquired Barrier Systems, Inc. during 2006, and management excluded from its assessment
of the effectiveness of the Company&#146;s internal control over financial reporting as of August&nbsp;31,
2006, Barrier Systems,
Inc.&#146;s internal control over financial reporting associated with total assets of $57.8&nbsp;million and
total revenues of $10.3&nbsp;million included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company as
of and for the year ended August&nbsp;31, 2006. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting
of the Company also excluded an evaluation of the internal control over financial reporting of
Barrier Systems, Inc.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of August&nbsp;31, 2006 and
2005, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders&#146; equity and comprehensive
income, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended August&nbsp;31, 2006, and
our report dated November&nbsp;10, 2006 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial
statements.

vested, and Shares will be issued in accordance with the Company&#146;s procedures for issuing Common
Stock. The Company&#146;s obligation hereunder is unfunded.

the event of any stock dividends, stock splits or reverse stock splits of Common Stock of the
Company. No fractional Shares of Common Stock will be issued. The Company may make such
adjustments as it deems appropriate to eliminate fractional Share interests.

otherwise.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.4 Nothing contained in the Agreement shall confer on the Grantee any right with respect
to continuation of employment with the Company, or interfere with the right of the Company to
terminate at any time and for any reason the employment of the Grantee.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.5 The Units and rights under the Agreement may not be sold, conveyed, assigned,
transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of or encumbered at any time, except upon the Grantee&#146;s
death by will or the laws of descent and distribution or written designation of a beneficiary by
the Grantee in a form acceptable to the Company. Any attempted action in violation of this
paragraph shall be null, void and without effect.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.6 The Company intends that the grant of Units under the Agreement will not be subject to
Section&nbsp;409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, because all payments with respect to
the Units will qualify for the exception from coverage under Section&nbsp;409A for short-term deferrals.
The Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner which is consistent with the foregoing intent. The
Committee may not take any action or exercise any discretion under the Plan in a manner which will
cause the Units granted under the Agreement to be subject to Code Section&nbsp;409A. Each payment which
becomes due under the Agreement shall be made as soon as practicable on or after the date when the
right to receive the payment vests. The latest date for any payment shall be the end of the
calendar year in which the Grantee&#146;s right to receive the payment becomes vested, or if this is not
practicable, not later than the 15<SUP style="font-size: 85%; vertical-align: text-top">th</SUP> day of the third month following the end of such
calendar year.
