Recent press releases and 8-K filings for VMI.
- Valmont Industries has significantly improved its financial performance since 2020, with earnings per share (EPS) more than doubling and Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) almost doubling to 16.4%. The company aims to achieve $25-$30 EPS by driving $500 million-$700 million in incremental sales growth.
- The business is primarily composed of 75% infrastructure and 25% agriculture. Infrastructure is supported by strong tailwinds such as aging infrastructure replacement, energy transition, and increased technology/data consumption. While agriculture is currently in a trough, it benefits from solid long-term drivers like food security and population growth.
- The company plans to invest approximately $150 million per year in capital expenditures, with about $100 million allocated to growth opportunities, particularly in utility infrastructure capacity. For every $100 million of growth CapEx, Valmont expects at least $100 million in revenue and $1 in EPS.
- Valmont's capital allocation strategy includes a $700 million share buyback authorization (just under 10% of market cap) to be executed over the next three to four years, and a commitment to regular dividend increases, following a 13% raise in February.
- Valmont Industries has demonstrated strong financial performance, more than doubling its earnings per share and nearly doubling its return on invested capital to 16.4% since 2020.
- The company targets $500 million-$700 million in sales growth, projecting an incremental $7-$12 in earnings per share to reach a total of $25-$30.

- With a strong balance sheet and projected operating cash flow of just under $600 million in 2024, Valmont plans to invest $150 million annually in CapEx (with $100 million for growth), pursue selective M&A, execute a $700 million share buyback, and consistently increase dividends.
- Valmont Industries aims to achieve $500 million-$700 million in sales growth, leading to an incremental $7-$12 in earnings per share (EPS) and a target EPS of $25-$30. This growth is expected to be driven by strong demand in the utility market, advancements in agriculture technology, and disciplined capital allocation.
- The company plans to invest in capacity expansion, particularly in its utility infrastructure business, with an expected run-rate CapEx of approximately $150 million per year over the next few years, of which about $100 million is allocated to growth opportunities.
