Description: VMI Valmont Industries January 09, 2026
Valmont Industries, Inc. (NYSE: VMI) manufactures infrastructure and agricultural products across the United States, Australia, Brazil and other markets, operating through two primary segments: Infrastructure and Agriculture.
In the Infrastructure segment, the company produces steel, pre-stressed concrete, and composite structures for electric transmission, substations, and distribution, as well as poles and lighting/transportation structures in metal, wood, aluminum and composites. Ancillary services include galvanizing, anodizing, painting and powder-coating, plus specialized wireless-communication hardware such as small-cell towers and passive-intermodulation mitigation equipment. Valmont also supplies solar single-axis tracker systems that combine steel structures, electric motors and electronic controllers.
The Agriculture segment focuses on center-pivot and linear irrigation equipment, tubular products for industrial customers, and advanced technology solutions under the Valley brand. This includes mechanical irrigation hardware, service parts, and related coatings to protect metal components.
Key recent metrics: FY 2023 revenue reached approximately $3.2 billion, with an operating margin of roughly 13 %, and the company reported a backlog of about $1.1 billion, indicating sustained demand. Core drivers include U.S. infrastructure spending (stimulated by the bipartisan infrastructure law), global farm-income trends tied to commodity prices, and accelerating adoption of utility-scale solar projects that boost tracker sales.
Founded in 1946 and headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska, Valmont’s diversified product mix positions it to benefit from both cyclical construction activity and longer-term renewable-energy and agricultural-efficiency trends.
