NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

(1) Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and do not include all of the disclosures normally required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for financial statements contained in Lindsay Corporation’s (the “Company”) annual Form 10-K filing. Accordingly, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2009.

     In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company reflect all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary to present a fair statement of the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the respective interim periods. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of trends or results expected by the Company for a full year.

     Notes to the condensed 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 by management in the preparation of the condensed 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 condensed consolidated financial statements. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior financial statements and notes to conform to the current year presentation. These reclassifications were not material to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

     During the second quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company recognized incentive wage and investment tax credits from the state of Nebraska’s economic development program, the Nebraska Advantage Act (the “Nebraska Advantage Act Credits”). Wage credits reduced cost of operating revenues by $0.6 million and operating expenses by $0.3 million. In addition, investment tax credits reduced income tax expense by $1.4 million. The net after-tax benefit of the wage and investment tax credits increased net earnings by $2.0 million, or $0.16 per diluted share. The Company uses the deferral method of accounting for its investment tax credits related to state wage incentives.

(2) Net Earnings per Share

Basic net earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive potential common shares consist of stock options and restricted stock units to the extent they are not anti-dilutive. Performance stock units are excluded from the calculation of dilutive potential common shares until the threshold performance conditions have been satisfied. At February 28, 2010, the threshold performance conditions for the November 16, 2007 grants had been satisfied resulting in the inclusion of 10,800 performance stock units in the calculation of diluted net earnings per share. The threshold performance conditions for the Company’s outstanding performance stock units had not been satisfied as of February 28, 2010 for the units granted on November 3, 2008 and November 12, 2009, resulting in the exclusion of 74,245 performance stock units from the calculation of diluted net earnings per share.

     Employee equity share options, nonvested shares and similar equity instruments granted by the Company are treated as potential common shares outstanding in computing diluted net earnings per share. The Company’s diluted common shares outstanding reported in each period include the dilutive effect of restricted stock units, in-the-money options, and performance stock units for which threshold performance conditions have been satisfied and 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 exercising stock options, the amount of compensation cost for future service that the Company has not yet recognized on share based awards, and the amount of excess tax benefits that would be recorded in additional paid-in capital when shares are issued and assumed to be used to repurchase shares.

     There were 1,333 and 57,377 restricted stock units excluded from the calculation of diluted net earnings per share for the three months ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, respectively, since their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive. Additionally, there were 952 and 29,334 restricted stock units excluded from the calculation of diluted net earnings per share as a result of being anti-dilutive for the six months ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

(3) Comprehensive Income

The accumulated other comprehensive income, net, shown in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets includes the unrealized gain (loss) on cash flow hedges, changes in the transition obligation and net actuarial losses from the defined benefit pension plan and the accumulated foreign currency translation adjustment, net of hedging activities. The following table shows the difference between the Company’s reported net earnings and its comprehensive income:

		Three months ended								Six months ended
		February 28,								February 28,
$ in thousands		2010				2009				2010				2009
Comprehensive income:
Net earnings		$	5,978			$	150			$	12,655			$	6,472
Other comprehensive income(1):
Defined benefit pension plan, net of tax			28				27				56				54
Unrealized gain (loss) on cash flow hedges, net of tax			723				(115	)			556				415
Foreign currency translation, net of hedging activities			(3,816	)			(108	)			(872	)			(9,161	)
Total comprehensive income (loss)		$	2,913			$	(46	)		$	12,395			$	(2,220	)

(4) Income Taxes

It is the Company’s policy to report income tax expense for interim periods using an estimated annual effective income tax rate. However, the tax effects of significant or unusual items are not considered in the estimated annual effective tax rate. The tax effects of such discrete events are recognized in the interim period in which the events occur.

     The Company recorded income tax expense of $0.6 million and $4.8 million for the three and six months ended February 28, 2010, respectively. The Company recorded an income tax benefit of $0.6 million and income tax expense of $2.8 million for the three and six months ended February 28, 2009, respectively. The estimated effective tax rate used to calculate income tax expense (benefit) before discrete items was 35.5% and 34.9% for the periods ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

     For the three months ended February 28, 2010, the Company recorded two discrete items that reduced income tax expense. The first item was a benefit of $1.4 million related to previously discussed Nebraska Advantage Act Credits. The second item relates to the reversal of previously recorded liabilities for uncertain tax positions relating to taxation of certain of the Company’s international subsidiaries. This reversal was recorded due to the expiration of the statute of limitations in the respective tax jurisdictions without any actual tax liability being assessed. The benefit recorded was $0.4 million. For the six months ended February 28, 2010, the Company recorded the two discrete items discussed above as well as a discrete item resulting in $0.4 million of additional tax expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. In fiscal 2004 the European Commission (“EC”) overturned a tax deduction previously allowed by the French Tax Authorities and taken by the Company’s French subsidiary in a period prior to being owned by the Company. In the first quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company determined it had not previously recorded the tax obligation resulting from the EC ruling. The Company corrected the error and recorded an immaterial adjustment of $0.4 million to increase tax expense to reflect the correction of the tax obligation incurred during fiscal 2004. The Company has concluded that the impact of this correction is not material to its previously issued financial statements.

     For the three and six months ended February 28, 2009, the Company recorded two discrete items that reduced income tax expense for those periods. The first item was a benefit of $0.1 million related to the reversal of previously recorded liabilities for uncertain tax positions, relating to taxation of the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary. This reversal was recorded due to the expiration of the statute of limitations without any actual tax liability being assessed. The second item was a benefit of $0.3 million resulting from finalizing the fiscal 2008 income tax return calculation that was less than the estimated fiscal 2008 income tax provision.

(5) Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) method for the Company’s Lindsay, Nebraska inventory and two warehouses in Idaho and Texas. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) method for inventory at the Company’s Omaha, Nebraska warehouse, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Barrier Systems, Inc. (“BSI”) and Watertronics, LLC, China and other non-U.S. warehouse locations. Cost is determined by the weighted average cost method for inventory at the Company’s other operating locations in Washington State, France, Brazil, Italy and South Africa. 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.

		February 28,				February 28,				August 31,

(7) Credit Arrangements

Euro Line of Credit

     The Company’s wholly-owned European subsidiary, Lindsay Europe, has an unsecured revolving line of credit with Societe Generale, a European commercial bank, under which it could borrow up to 2.3 million Euros, which equates to approximately USD $3.1 million as of February 28, 2010, for working capital purposes (the “Euro Line of Credit”). As of February 28, 2010 and August 31, 2009, there were no borrowings outstanding on the Euro Line of Credit. As of February 28, 2009 there was $2.3 million outstanding on the Euro Line of Credit, which was included in other current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Under the terms of the Euro Line of Credit, borrowings, if any, bear interest at a floating rate in effect from time to time designated by the commercial bank as the Euro Interbank Offered Rate plus 150 basis points (1.83% at February 28, 2010). Unpaid principal and interest is due by January 31, 2011, which is the termination date of the Euro Line of Credit.

BSI Term Note

     The Company entered into an unsecured $30.0 million Term Note and Credit Agreement, effective June 1, 2006, with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (the “BSI Term Note”) to partially finance the acquisition of BSI. Borrowings under the BSI Term Note bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 50 basis points. The Company has fixed the rate at 6.05% through an interest rate swap as described in Note 8, Financial Derivatives. Principal is repaid quarterly in equal payments of $1.1 million over a seven-year period that began in September of 2006. The BSI Term Note is due in June of 2013.

Snoline Term Note

     The Company’s wholly-owned Italian subsidiary, Snoline S.P.A. (“Snoline”) has an unsecured $13.2 million seven-year Term Note and Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. that was effective on December 27, 2006 (the “Snoline Term Note”). Borrowings under the Snoline Term Note are guaranteed by the Company and bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 50 basis points. The Snoline Term Note is due in December of 2013. On the same day as entering into the Snoline Term Note, the Company entered into a cross currency swap transaction obligating the Company to make quarterly payments of 0.4 million Euros per quarter over the same seven-year period as the Snoline Term Note and to

receive payments of $0.5 million per quarter over a seven year period commencing March 27, 2007. This is approximately equivalent to converting the $13.2 million seven-year Snoline Term Note into a 10.0 million Euro seven-year term note at a fixed rate of 4.7% as described in Note 8, Financial Derivatives.

Revolving Credit Agreement

     The Company has an unsecured $30.0 million Revolving Credit Note and Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”). The Company entered into the First Amendment to the Revolving Credit Agreement, effective January 23, 2010 in order to extend the Revolving Credit Agreement’s termination date from January 23, 2010 to January 23, 2012 as well as to modify the interest rate from LIBOR plus 50 basis points to LIBOR plus 120 basis points. The Revolving Credit Agreement, as amended, is hereinafter referred to as the “Amended Revolving Credit Agreement”. The borrowings from the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement will primarily be used for working capital purposes and funding acquisitions. At February 28, 2010 and 2009 and August 31, 2009, there was no outstanding balance on the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement.

     Borrowings under the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 120 basis points, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement. Interest is paid on a monthly to quarterly basis depending on loan type. The Company also pays an annual commitment fee of 0.25% on the unused portion of the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement. Unpaid principal and interest is due by January 23, 2012, which is the termination date of the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement.

The BSI Term Note, the Snoline Term Note and the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement (collectively, the “Notes”) each contain the same covenants, including certain covenants relating to the Company’s financial condition. These include maintaining a funded debt to EBITDA ratio, a fixed charge coverage ratio, and a current ratio (all as defined in the Notes) at specified levels. In connection with entering into the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement during the second quarter of fiscal 2010, these covenants for each of the Notes were modified by adding a tangible net worth requirement to the already existing covenants. Upon the occurrence of any event of default of these covenants specified in the Notes, including a change in control of the Company (as defined in the Notes), all amounts due thereunder may be declared to be immediately due and payable.

(8) Financial Derivatives

The Company uses certain financial derivatives to mitigate its exposure to volatility in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company uses these derivative instruments to hedge exposures in the ordinary course of business and does not invest in derivative instruments for speculative purposes. Each derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, a hedge

of a net investment, or remains undesignated. The Company records the fair value of these derivative instruments on the balance sheet. For those instruments that are designated as a cash flow hedge and meet certain documentary and analytical requirements to qualify for hedge accounting treatment, changes in the fair value for the effective portion are reported in other comprehensive income (“OCI”), net of related income tax effects, and are reclassified to the income statement when the effects of the item being hedged are recognized in the income statement. Changes in fair value of derivative instruments that qualify as hedges of a net investment in foreign operations are recorded as a component of accumulated currency translation adjustment in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), net of related income tax effects. Changes in the fair value of undesignated hedges are recognized currently in the income statement as other income (expense). All changes in derivative fair values due to ineffectiveness are recognized currently in income.

Financial derivatives consist of the following:

Cash Flow Hedging Relationships

     In order to reduce interest rate risk on the BSI Term Note, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. that is designed to convert the variable interest rate on the entire amount of this borrowing to a fixed rate of 6.05% per annum. Under the terms of the interest rate swap, the Company receives variable interest rate payments and makes fixed interest rate payments on an amount equal to the outstanding balance of the BSI Term Note, thereby creating the equivalent of fixed-rate debt (see Note 7, Credit Arrangements). Changes in the fair value of the 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 AOCI, net of related income tax effects.

     Similarly, the Company entered into a cross currency swap transaction with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. fixing the conversion rate of Euro to U.S. dollars for the Snoline Term Note at 1.3195 and obligating the Company to make quarterly payments of 0.4 million Euros per quarter over the same seven-year period as the Snoline Term Note and to receive payments of $0.5 million per quarter. In addition, the variable interest rate was converted to a fixed rate of 4.7%. This is approximately equivalent to converting the $13.2 million seven-year Snoline Term Note into a 10.0 million Euro seven-year term note at a fixed rate of 4.7%. Under the terms of the cross currency swap, the Company receives variable interest rate payments and makes fixed interest rate payments, thereby creating the equivalent of fixed-rate debt (see Note 7, Credit Arrangements). Changes in the fair value of the cross currency swap designated as a hedging instrument that effectively offset the hedged risks are reported in AOCI, net of related income tax effects.

     In order to reduce exposures related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company, at times, may enter into forward exchange or option contracts for transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency for certain of our operations. This activity primarily relates to economically hedging against foreign currency risk

in purchasing inventory, sales of finished goods, and future settlement of foreign denominated assets and liabilities. Changes in the fair value of the forward exchange contracts or option contracts designated as hedging instruments that effectively offset the hedged risks are reported in AOCI, net of related income tax effects. The Company had no forward exchange contracts or option contracts with cash flow hedging relationships outstanding at February 28, 2010, February 28, 2009 or August 31, 2009.

Net Investment Hedging Relationships

     In order to reduce translation exposure resulting from translating the financial statements of its international subsidiaries into U.S. dollars, the Company, at times, utilizes Euro foreign currency forward contracts to hedge its Euro net investment exposure in its foreign operations. These foreign currency forward contracts qualify as a hedge of net investments in foreign operations. Changes in fair value of the net investment hedge contracts are reported in OCI as part of the currency translation adjustment, net of tax.

     During the second quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company entered into and settled a Euro foreign currency forward contract resulting in an after-tax gain of $0.4 million which was included in OCI as part of a currency translation adjustment. For the three and six months ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, there were no amounts recorded in the consolidated statement of operations related to ineffectiveness of Euro foreign currency forward contracts. Accumulated currency translation adjustment in AOCI at February 28, 2010 and 2009 and August 31, 2009 reflected after-tax gains of $1.6 million, $1.2 million and $1.2 million, net of related income tax effects of $1.0 million, $0.8 million and $0.8 million, respectively, related to settled foreign currency forward contracts. At February 28, 2010 and 2009 and August 31, 2009, the Company had no outstanding Euro foreign currency forward contracts with net investment hedging relationships.

     In order to reduce exposures related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company, at times, may enter into forward exchange or option contracts for transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency for certain of the Company’s operations. This activity primarily relates to economically hedging against foreign currency risk in purchasing inventory, sales of finished goods, and future settlement of foreign denominated assets and liabilities. Changes in the fair value of undesignated hedges are recognized currently in the income statement as other income (expense).

(9) Fair Value Measurements

The Financial Accounting Standards Board’s guidance on fair value measurements that establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements was adopted by the Company for its financial assets and liabilities, effective September 1, 2008. In addition, the Company adopted this guidance for its nonfinancial assets and liabilities effective September 1, 2009. These nonfinancial assets and liabilities requiring nonrecurring fair value measurements include long-lived assets, goodwill and certain other intangible assets. These items are recognized at fair

value when they are considered other than temporarily impaired. There were no required fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis for the three and six months ended February 28, 2010.

     The fair value measurements guidance establishes the fair value hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques based on observable and unobservable data and categorizes the inputs into three levels, with the highest priority given to Level 1 and the lowest priority given to Level 3. The levels are described below.

	•		Level 1 — Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
	•		Level 2 — Significant observable pricing inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date. Essentially, this represents inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.
	•		Level 3 — Generally unobservable inputs, which are developed based on the best information available and may include the Company’s own internal data.

The following table presents the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value based upon the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall, as of February 28, 2010:

$ in thousands		Level 1				Level 2				Level 3				Total
Cash and cash equivalents		$	91,635			$	—			$	—			$	91,635
Derivative Liabilities			—				(1,854	)			—				(1,854	)

The carrying amount of long-term debt (including current portion) was $22.5 million as of February 28, 2010. The fair value of this debt at February 28, 2010 was estimated at $21.8 million. Fair value of long-term debt (including current portion) is estimated by discounting the future estimated cash flows of each instrument at current market interest rates for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities and credit quality.

(10) Commitments and Contingencies

In 1992, the Company entered into a consent decree with the Environmental Protection Agency of the United States Government (the “EPA”) in which the Company committed to remediate environmental contamination of the groundwater that was discovered in 1982 through 1990 at and adjacent to its Lindsay, Nebraska facility (the “site”). The site was added to the EPA’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. The current remediation process consists of drilling wells into the aquifer and pumping water to the surface to allow these contaminants to be removed by aeration. In 2008, the Company and the EPA conducted a periodic five-year review of the status of the remediation of the contamination of the site. In response to the review, the Company and its environmental consultants have developed a remedial action work plan that will allow the Company and the EPA to better identify the boundaries of the contaminated groundwater and determine whether the contaminated groundwater is being contained by current and planned remediation methods. The Company accrues the anticipated cost of remediation when the obligation is probable and can be reasonably estimated. During the second quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company accrued incremental costs of $0.7 million for additional environmental monitoring and remediation in connection with the current ongoing supplemental remedial action work plan. Amounts accrued and included in balance sheet liabilities related to the remediation actions were $1.3 million, $1.0 million and $1.3 million at February 28, 2010, February 28, 2009 and August 31, 2009, respectively. Although the Company has accrued all reasonably estimable costs of completing the actions defined in the current ongoing work plan agreed to between the Company and the EPA, it is possible that additional testing may be required or additional actions could be requested or mandated by the EPA at any time, resulting in the recognition of additional related expenses.

(11) Retirement Plan

The Company has a supplemental non-qualified, unfunded retirement plan for six former employees. Plan benefits are based on the participant’s average total compensation during the three highest compensation years of employment during the ten years immediately preceding the participant’s retirement or termination. This unfunded supplemental retirement plan is not subject to the minimum funding requirements of ERISA. The Company has purchased life insurance policies on four of the

participants named in this supplemental retirement plan to provide partial funding for this liability. Components of net periodic benefit cost for the Company’s supplemental retirement plan include:

		Three months ended								Six months ended

(12) Warranties

The Company generally warrants its products against certain manufacturing and other defects. These product warranties are provided for specific periods and/or usage of the product. The accrued product warranty costs are for a combination of specifically identified items and other incurred, but not identified, items based primarily on historical experience of actual warranty claims. This reserve is classified within other current liabilities.

(13) Industry Segment Information

The Company manages its business activities in two reportable segments:

     Irrigation: This segment includes the manufacture and marketing of center pivot, lateral move, and hose reel irrigation systems as well as various water pumping stations and controls. The irrigation segment consists of eight operating segments that have similar economic characteristics and meet the aggregation criteria, including similar products, production processes, type or class of customer and methods for distribution.

     Infrastructure: This segment includes the manufacture and marketing of moveable barriers, specialty barriers and crash cushions, providing outsource manufacturing services and the manufacturing and selling of large diameter steel tubing and railroad signaling structures. The infrastructure segment consists of three operating segments that have similar economic characteristics and meet the aggregation criteria.

     The accounting policies of the two reportable segments are described in the “Accounting Policies” section of Note A to the consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2009. The Company evaluates the performance of its reportable segments based on segment sales, gross profit, and operating income, with operating income for segment purposes excluding unallocated corporate general and administrative expenses, interest income, interest expense, other income and expenses, and income taxes. Operating income for segment purposes does include general and administrative expenses, selling expenses, engineering and research expenses and other overhead charges directly attributable to the segment. There are no inter-segment sales. Certain segment reporting prescribed by current accounting standards is not shown as this information cannot be reasonably disaggregated by segment and is not utilized by the Company’s management.

     For the six months ended February 28, 2010, more than 10% of the total revenues generated by the Company were realized from the $19.6 million Mexico City road barrier project completed in the first half of fiscal 2010. The Company had no single customer representing 10% or more of its total revenues during the three months ended February 28, 2010 or the three and six months ended February 28, 2009.

(14) Share Based Compensation

The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values. The Company’s current share-based compensation plan, approved by the stockholders of the Company, provides for awards of stock options, restricted shares, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance shares and performance stock units to employees and non-employee directors of the Company. In connection with the restricted stock units and performance stock units, the Company is accruing compensation expense based on the estimated number of shares expected to be issued utilizing the most current information available to the Company at the date of the financial statements. Share-based compensation expense was $0.6 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, respectively. Share-based compensation expense was $1.2 million and $0.9 million for the six months ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

     During the second quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company awarded its annual grant of restricted stock units to its independent members of the Board of Directors at a grant date fair value of $40.02 per share. Total units granted were 5,978 restricted stock units. These restricted stock units were the final awards issued from the 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan and will vest on November 1, 2010.

     On January 25, 2010, the stockholders of the Company approved the 2010 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2010 Plan”). The 2010 Plan replaces its predecessor plan, the 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Predecessor Plan”). The 2010 Plan provides for awards of stock options, restricted shares, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance shares and performance stock 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 2010 Plan is 435,000 shares. In addition, any shares subject to awards under the Predecessor Plan or the Company’s 2001 Long-Term Incentive Plan that expire, are forfeited or become unexercisable without having been issued will also be authorized for issuance under the 2010 Plan. At February 28, 2010, no awards had been granted under the 2010 Plan.

Accounting Policies

In preparing the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, management must make a variety of decisions, which impact the reported amounts and the related disclosures. These decisions include the selection of the appropriate accounting principles to be applied and the assumptions on which to base accounting estimates. In making these decisions, management applies its judgment based on its understanding and analysis of the relevant circumstances and the Company’s historical experience.

     The Company’s accounting policies that are most important to the presentation of its results of operations and financial condition, and which require the greatest use of judgments and estimates by management, are designated as its critical accounting policies. See further discussion of the Company’s critical accounting policies under Item 7 — “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Company’s year ended August 31, 2009.

Revenues

Operating revenues for the three months ended February 28, 2010 increased by 31% to $85.2 million compared with $65.1 million for the three months ended February 28, 2009. The increase is attributable to a $19.5 million increase in irrigation equipment revenues and a $0.6 million increase in infrastructure revenues.

     Domestic irrigation equipment revenues for the three months ended February 28, 2010 of $38.8 million increased 16% compared to the same period last year. The increase in domestic irrigation revenues is primarily due to an increase in the number of irrigation systems sold as compared to the prior year’s second fiscal quarter. The increase in the number of units sold was partially offset by a lower average price per unit. Agricultural commodity prices, for corn, soybeans and wheat are relatively similar to prices at the same time last year; however, there is a sense that farmers are moving beyond the shock effect of the economic recession experienced last year. USDA projections for 2010 Net Farm Income indicate a

12% increase compared to 2009 estimates and near the ten year average. International irrigation equipment revenues for the three months ended February 28, 2010 of $29.1 million increased 93% from $15.0 million compared to the same prior year period. Significant export increases in Mexico and Central America along with strong revenues from the Company’s South American international irrigation business unit, drove the second quarter increase. During the second fiscal quarter, exports to Mexico rose significantly as farmers raced to receive equipment prior to the expiration of a government subsidy.

     Infrastructure products segment revenues for the three months ended February 28, 2010 of $17.3 million increased 4% from the same prior year period. The increase in revenue was driven by the completion of the $19.6 million Mexico City road barrier project (the “Mexico City road project”). This was partially offset by decreased revenue in contract manufacturing and commercial tubing compared to the prior year’s second quarter. Contract manufacturing, which is less than 2% of total revenue in the quarter, decreased approximately 55% from the same time last year. This decrease reflects the recession impact on the Company’s customers for the manufacturing services, as well as companies pulling in work from contract manufacturers. BSI’s revenues were up 29% during the second fiscal quarter, with most of the increase due to the completion of the Mexico City road project.

Gross Margin

Gross profit was $22.1 million for the three months ended February 28, 2010; an increase of $8.9 million compared to the three months ended February 28, 2009. Gross margin was 26.0% for the three months ended February 28, 2010 compared to 20.4% for the same prior year period. Infrastructure margins increased primarily due to increased revenues of moveable barrier product. Irrigation margins increased from improved factory efficiencies at the Company’s Lindsay, Nebraska facility and a favorable regional sales mix compared to the same prior year period. While irrigation margins increased during the second fiscal quarter, the average irrigation price per unit was down approximately 5% from the same time last year, reflecting competitive action to pass through lower steel costs. Toward the end of the second fiscal quarter, steel prices moved somewhat higher and the Company anticipates effectively passing-through those increases. However, the Company has seen a recent increase in competitive pricing pressure in the U.S. market that could impact its ability to pass through price increases. In addition, during the second quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company recognized incentive wage and investment tax credits from the state of Nebraska’s economic development program, the Nebraska Advantage Act (the “Nebraska Advantage Act Credits”) which improved gross profit by $0.6 million and gross margin by 0.8% for the three months ended February 28, 2010.

Operating Expenses

The Company’s operating expenses of $15.2 million for the three months ended February 28, 2010 were $1.5 million higher than the same prior year period. The increase in operating expenses was due in large part to inclusion of $0.7 million of incremental expenses for additional environmental monitoring and remediation as part of an EPA work plan at the Company’s Lindsay, Nebraska facility and $0.7 million of higher employee medical expenses. In addition, an increase in incentive compensation expense was essentially offset by other personnel related expense reductions and $0.3 million of Nebraska Advantage Act Credits. Operating expenses were 17.9% of sales for the three months ended February 28, 2010 compared to 21.1% of sales for the three months ended February 28, 2009.

Interest

Interest expense for the three months ended February 28, 2010 decreased by $0.1 million compared to the same prior year period. The decrease in interest expense is due to the principal reductions on the Company’s two outstanding term notes.

     Interest income for the three months ended February 28, 2010 decreased by $0.1 million compared to the same prior year period. The decrease in interest income is primarily due to earning a lower interest rate on investments of the Company’s cash balances.

Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $0.6 million for the three months ended February 28, 2010 and income tax benefit of $0.6 million for the three months ended February 28, 2009.

     For the three months ended February 28, 2010, the Company recorded two discrete items that reduced income tax expense. The first item was a benefit of $1.4 million related to the Nebraska Advantage Act Credits. The second item relates to the reversal of previously recorded liabilities for uncertain tax positions relating to taxation of certain of the Company’s international subsidiaries. This reversal was recorded due to the expiration of the statute of limitations in the respective tax jurisdictions without any actual tax liability being assessed. The benefit recorded was $0.4 million.

     For the three months ended February 28, 2009, the Company recorded two discrete items that increased the income tax benefit. The first item was a benefit of $0.1 million related to the reversal of previously recorded liabilities for uncertain tax positions, relating to taxation of the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary. This reversal was recorded due to the

expiration of the statute of limitations without any actual tax liability being assessed. The second item was a benefit of $0.3 million resulting from finalizing the fiscal 2008 income tax return calculation that was less than the estimated fiscal 2008 income tax provision.

Net Earnings

Net earnings were $6.0 million or $0.48 per diluted share for the three months ended February 28, 2010 compared with $0.2 million or $0.01 per diluted share for the same prior year period. Included in net earnings for the three months ended February 28, 2010 is an after-tax net benefit of $2.0 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, from the Nebraska Advantage Act Credits.

Revenues

Operating revenues for the six months ended February 28, 2010 decreased by $7.1 million to $171.2 million compared with $178.3 million for the six months ended February 28, 2009. The decrease is attributable to a $13.2 million decrease in irrigation equipment revenues partially offset by an increase of $6.1 million in infrastructure segment revenues.

     Domestic irrigation equipment revenues for the six months ended February 28, 2010 of $71.6 million decreased $15.4 million compared to the same period last year. The six months ended February 28, 2009 reflected a record first quarter irrigation revenue, working off a record backlog from the end of fiscal 2008. The Company saw a significant decline in orders in the quarters following August 31, 2008 as a result of the economic slowdown. International irrigation

equipment revenues for the six months ended February 28, 2010 increased $2.2 million as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2009. The Company’s revenues from international markets were also impacted by the record revenue in the first fiscal quarter of 2009. Management believes that the combination of factors described above in the discussion of the three months ended February 28, 2010 also contributed to the increase in international irrigation revenues for the six-month period and more than offsets the impact of the record revenue recorded in the first fiscal quarter of 2009.

     Infrastructure products segment revenue of $50.0 million for the six months ended February 28, 2010 represented an increase of $6.1 million from the same prior year period. For the six month period revenue increased at Barrier Systems by over 70% compared to the first six months of fiscal 2009. The completion of the $19.6 million Mexico City road project benefited Barrier Systems during the first half of fiscal 2010. Management believes that the combination of factors described above in the discussion of the three months ended February 28, 2010 also contributed to the decrease in Diversified Manufacturing revenues for the six-month period.

Gross Margin

Gross profit for the six months ended February 28, 2010 was $47.9 million, an increase of $6.0 million compared to the same prior year period. Gross margin percentage for the six months ended February 28, 2010 increased to 28.0% from the 23.5% achieved during the same prior year period. Management believes that the combination of factors described above in the discussion of the three months ended February 28, 2010 also contributed to the increase in gross margin for the six-month period.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses during the first half of fiscal 2010 decreased by $0.7 million to $29.9 million compared to the same prior year period. The lower operating expenses were primarily due to reduced personnel related costs and Nebraska Advantage Act Credits. This decrease was partially offset by increased medical and incentive compensation expenses.

Interest, Other Income (Expense), net

Interest expense during the six months ended February 28, 2010 of $0.8 million decreased $0.3 million from the $1.1 million recognized during the same prior year period for fiscal 2009. The decrease in interest expense is due to lower interest expense payments resulting from principal reductions on the Company’s two outstanding term notes.

     Interest income during the six months ended February 28, 2010 decreased by $0.4 million compared to the same prior year period. The decrease in interest income is primarily due to earning a lower interest rate on investments of the Company’s cash balances.

     Other income (expense), net during the six months ended February 28, 2010 increased from an expense of $1.5 million to income of $0.1 million compared with the same prior year period. The higher expense for the first half of fiscal 2009 primarily resulted from foreign currency transaction losses realized from the volatility of exchange rates.

Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $4.8 million and $2.8 million for the six months ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The effective tax rate used to calculate income tax expense before discrete items was 35.5% and 34.9% for the six months ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

     For the six months ended February 28, 2010, the Company recorded three discrete items that reduced income tax expense. The first item was a benefit of $1.4 million related to the Nebraska Advantage Act Credits. The next item relates to the reversal of previously recorded liabilities for uncertain tax positions relating to taxation of the Company’s international subsidiaries. This reversal was recorded due to the expiration of the statute of limitations in the respective tax jurisdictions without any actual tax liability being assessed. The benefit recorded was $0.4 million. Lastly, the Company recorded a discrete item resulting in $0.4 million of additional tax expense in the first quarter of fiscal 2010. In fiscal 2004 the European Commission (“EC”) overturned a tax deduction previously allowed by the French Tax Authorities and taken by the Company’s French subsidiary in a period prior to being owned by the Company. In the current period, the Company determined it had not previously recorded the tax obligation resulting from the EC ruling. The Company corrected the error and recorded an immaterial adjustment of $0.4 million to increase tax expense to reflect the correction of the tax obligation incurred during fiscal 2004. The Company has concluded that the impact of this correction is not material to its previously issued financial statements.

     For the six months ended February 28, 2009, the Company recorded two discrete items that reduced income tax expense. The first item was a benefit of $0.1 million related to the reversal of previously recorded liabilities for uncertain tax positions, relating to taxation of the Company’s Brazilian subsidiary. This reversal was recorded due to the expiration of the statute of limitations without any actual tax liability being assessed. The second item was a benefit of $0.3 million

resulting from finalizing the fiscal 2008 income tax return calculation that was less than the estimated fiscal 2008 income tax provision.

Net Earnings

Net earnings were $12.7 million or $1.01 per diluted share for the six months ended February 28, 2010 compared with $6.5 million or $0.52 per diluted share for the same prior year period. Included in net earnings for the six months ended February 28, 2010 is an after-tax net benefit of $2.0 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, from the Nebraska Advantage Act Credits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company requires cash for financing its receivables and inventories, paying operating costs and capital expenditures, and for dividends. The Company meets its liquidity needs and finances its capital expenditures from its available cash and funds provided by operations along with borrowings under four credit arrangements that are described below.

     The Company’s cash and cash equivalents totaled $91.6 million at February 28, 2010 compared with $41.1 million at February 28, 2009 and $85.9 million at August 31, 2009.

     The Company currently maintains two bank lines of credit with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and Societe Generale to provide additional working capital or to fund acquisitions, if needed. The Company has an unsecured $30.0 million Revolving Credit Note and Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”). The Company entered into the First Amendment to the Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Amended Revolving Credit Agreement”), effective as of January 23, 2010, in order to extend the Revolving Credit Agreement’s termination date from January 23, 2010 to January 23, 2012 as well as to modify the interest rate from LIBOR plus 50 basis points to LIBOR plus 120 basis points. As of February 28, 2010 and 2009 and August 31, 2009, there was no outstanding balance on the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement.

     Borrowings under the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 120 basis points, subject to adjustment as set forth in the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement. Interest is repaid on a monthly or quarterly basis depending on loan type. The Company also pays an annual commitment fee of 0.25% on the unused portion of the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement. Unpaid principal and interest is due by January 23, 2012, which is the termination date of the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement.

     The Company’s wholly-owned European subsidiary, Lindsay Europe, has an unsecured revolving line of credit with Societe Generale, a European commercial bank, under which it could borrow up to 2.3 million Euros, which equates to approximately $3.1 million as of February 28, 2010, for working capital purposes (the “Euro Line of Credit”). At February 28, 2010 and August 31, 2009 there were no borrowings outstanding under the Euro Line of Credit. As of February 28, 2009, there was $2.3 million outstanding on the Euro Line of Credit. Under the terms of the Euro Line of Credit, borrowings, if any, bear interest at a floating rate in effect from time to time designated by the commercial bank as the Euro Interbank Offered Rate plus 150 basis points (all inclusive, 1.83% at February 28, 2010). Unpaid principal and interest is due by January 31, 2011, which is the termination date of the Euro Line of Credit.

     The Company also has two term loan arrangements that it used to finance previous acquisitions. The Company entered into an unsecured $30.0 million Term Note and Credit Agreement, each effective as of June 1, 2006, with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (collectively, the “BSI Term Note”) to partially finance the acquisition of BSI. Borrowings under the BSI Term Note 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 an interest rate swap agreement with the lender. Principal is repaid quarterly in equal payments of $1.1 million over a seven-year period that commenced in September, 2006. The BSI Term Note is due in June of 2013.

     On December 27, 2006, the Company’s wholly-owned Italian subsidiary entered into an unsecured $13.2 million seven-year Term Note and Credit Agreement (the “Snoline Term Note”) with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. Borrowings under the Snoline Term Note are guaranteed by the Company and bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 50 basis points. The Snoline Term Note is due in December of 2013. In connection with the Snoline Term Note, the Company entered into a cross currency swap transaction obligating the Company to make quarterly payments of 0.4 million Euros per quarter over the same seven-year period as the Snoline Term Note and to receive payments of $0.5 million per quarter. In addition, the variable interest rate was converted to a fixed rate of 4.7%. This is approximately equivalent to converting the $13.2 million seven-year Snoline Term Note into a 10.0 million Euro seven-year term note at a fixed rate of 4.7%.

     The BSI Term Note, the Snoline Term Note and the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement (collectively, the “Notes”) each contain the same covenants, including certain covenants relating to Lindsay’s financial condition. These include maintaining a funded debt to EBITDA ratio, a fixed charge coverage ratio, and a current ratio (all as defined in the Notes) at specified levels. In connection with entering into the Amended Revolving Credit Agreement during the second

quarter of fiscal 2010, these covenants for each of the Notes were modified by adding a tangible net worth requirement to the already existing covenants. Upon the occurrence of any event of default of these covenants specified in the Notes, including a change in control of the Company (as defined in the Notes), all amounts due under the Notes may be declared to be immediately due and payable. At February 28, 2010, the Company was in compliance with all loan covenants.

     The risk of receivable collectability has increased as global economic conditions have softened. In response, the Company continuously monitors the receivable portfolio and takes aggressive collection actions when required. In light of the ongoing significant changes in credit market liquidity and the general slowdown in the global economy, the Company still believes its current cash resources, projected operating cash flow, and remaining capacity under its 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.

     Cash flows provided by operations totaled $11.1 million during the six months ended February 28, 2010 compared to $2.0 million used in operations during the same prior year period. Cash provided by operations improved $13.1 million primarily due to increased net earnings and a decrease in cash used for working capital items.

     Cash flows used in investing activities totaled $1.0 million during the six months ended February 28, 2010 compared to cash flows used in investing activities of $4.3 million during the same prior year period. The decrease in cash used for investing activities was primarily due to a decrease of $3.2 million of purchases of property, plant and equipment.

     Cash flows used in financing activities totaled $4.2 million during the six months ended February 28, 2010 compared to cash flows used in financing activities of $3.2 million during the same prior year period. The increase in cash used in financing activities was primarily due to $0.8 million cash received from the revolving line of credit during the six months ended February 28, 2009. During the six months ended February 28, 2009, the Company’s French subsidiary’s net borrowings were $0.8 million on its revolving line of credit compared to $0 during the six months ended February 28, 2010.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments

There have been no material changes in the Company’s contractual obligations and commercial commitments as described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended August 31, 2009.

Market Conditions and Fiscal 2010 Outlook

Agricultural commodity prices for corn, soybeans and wheat are relatively similar to prices at the same time last year; however, there is a sense that farmers are moving beyond the shock effect of the economic recession experienced last year. USDA projections for 2010 Net Farm Income indicate a 12% increase compared to 2009 estimates and near the ten year average. Irrigation demand for the full fiscal 2010 remains unclear, as the Company is still only half way through the peak selling period, but the Company has seen improved demand in most regions of the country and overall irrigation demand is expected to be slightly better than fiscal 2009. In the international markets a few select regions appear to be rebounding at a faster pace compared to the rest of the world.

     In the infrastructure markets, interest in the moveable barrier product line for traffic mitigation remains very strong throughout the world. While the $19.6 million Mexico City road project was the largest project for the product line to-date, the Company’s list of potential projects continues to include ones of similar size as well as many smaller projects. Many of the Company’s other highway safety products, primarily the Company’s line of crash cushions, are more directly impacted by federal highway bill spending, which appears to be stabilized for the near-term. Infrastructure spending continues to remain uncertain beyond 2010, pending the passage of a new long-term highway bill.

     Overall, the Company continues to focus on working capital management and tight spending control in all of the Company’s operations. The Company’s focus on improving cash flow has resulted in increasing cash and cash equivalents by $50.5 million to $91.6 million compared with the prior year. The Company also reduced debt by $6.2 million over the same period.

     As of February 28, 2010, the Company had an order backlog of $33.6 million compared with $36.1 million at November 30, 2009 and $45.5 million at February 28, 2009. The February 28, 2009 backlog included $19.6 million for the Mexico City road project that was completed in the first half of fiscal 2010.

     In the long term, the global drivers of increasing food production, improving water-use efficiency, expanding bio-fuel production, expanding interest in reducing environmental impacts and improving transportation infrastructure continue to be positive drivers of demand for the Company’s products. The Company’s strong balance sheet has well-positioned the Company to invest in growth initiatives both organically and through acquisitions.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13 (“ASU 2009-13”), which addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather than as a combined unit. ASU 2009-13 is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The Company is still assessing the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its consolidated financial statements, but expects the impact to be minimal.

ITEM 3 — Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company uses certain financial derivatives to mitigate its exposure to volatility in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company uses these derivative instruments to hedge exposures in the ordinary course of business and does not invest in derivative instruments for speculative purposes. The credit risk under these interest rate and foreign currency agreements is not considered to be significant.

     The Company has manufacturing operations in the United States, France, Brazil, Italy, South Africa and China. The Company has sold products throughout the world and purchases certain of its components from third-party international suppliers. Export sales made from the United States are principally U.S. dollar denominated. A majority of the Company’s revenue generated from operations outside the United States is denominated in local currency. Accordingly, these sales are not subject to significant foreign currency transaction risk. At times, export sales may be denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar. The Company’s most significant transactional foreign currency exposures are the Euro, the Brazilian real, the South African rand and the Chinese renminbi in relation to the U.S. dollar. Fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies create exposures, which can adversely affect the Company’s results of operations.

     In order to reduce exposures related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company, at times, may enter into forward exchange or option contracts for transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency for certain of our operations. This activity primarily relates to economically hedging against foreign currency risk in purchasing inventory, sales of finished goods, and future settlement of foreign denominated assets and liabilities.

     In order to reduce translation exposure resulting from translating the financial statements of its international subsidiaries into U.S. dollars, the Company, at times, utilizes Euro foreign currency forward contracts to hedge its Euro net investment exposure in its foreign operations. During the second quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company entered into and settled a Euro foreign currency forward contract resulting in an after-tax gain of $0.4 million which was included in other comprehensive income as part of currency translation adjustment. This gain partially offset the translation losses recognized during the second quarter due to the declining Euro.

     In order to reduce interest rate risk on the $30 million BSI Term Note, the Company has entered into an interest rate swap agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. that is designed to convert the variable interest rate on the entire amount of this borrowing to a fixed rate of 6.05% per annum. Under the terms of the interest rate swap, the Company receives variable interest rate payments and makes fixed interest rate payments on an amount equal to the outstanding balance of the BSI Term Note, thereby creating the equivalent of fixed-rate debt.

     Similarly, the Company entered into a cross currency swap transaction fixing the conversion rate of Euros to U.S. dollars for the Snoline Term Note at 1.3195 and obligating the Company to make quarterly payments of 0.4 million Euros per quarter over the same seven-year period as the Snoline Term Note and to receive payments of $0.5 million per quarter. In addition, the variable interest rate was converted to a fixed rate of 4.7%. This is approximately equivalent to converting the $13.2 million seven-year Snoline Term Note into a 10.0 million Euro seven-year term note at a fixed rate of 4.7%. Under the terms of the cross currency swap, the Company receives variable interest rate payments and makes fixed interest rate payments, thereby creating the equivalent of fixed-rate debt.

ITEM 4 — Controls and Procedures

     As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation under the supervision and the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based upon that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of February 28, 2010.

     Additionally, the CEO and CFO determined that there has not been any change to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Part II — OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1 — Legal Proceedings

     In the ordinary course of its business operations, the Company is involved, from time to time, in commercial litigation, employment disputes, administrative proceedings, and other legal proceedings.

In 1992, the Company entered into a consent decree with the Environmental Protection Agency of the United States Government (the “EPA”) in which the Company committed to remediate environmental contamination of the groundwater that was discovered in 1982 through 1990 at and adjacent to its Lindsay, Nebraska facility (the “site”). The site was added to the EPA’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. The current remediation process consists of drilling wells into the aquifer and pumping water to the surface to allow these contaminants to be removed by aeration. In 2008, the Company and the EPA conducted a periodic five-year review of the status of the remediation of the contamination of the site. In response to the review, the Company and its environmental consultants have developed a remedial action work plan that will allow the Company and the EPA to better identify the boundaries of the contaminated groundwater and determine whether the contaminated groundwater is being contained by current and planned remediation methods. The Company accrues the anticipated cost of remediation when the obligation is probable and can be reasonably estimated. During the second quarter of fiscal 2010, the Company accrued incremental costs of $0.7 million for additional environmental monitoring and remediation in connection with the current ongoing supplemental remedial action work plan. Amounts accrued and included in balance sheet liabilities related to the remediation actions were $1.3 million, $1.0 million and $1.3 million at February 28, 2010 and 2009 and August 31, 2009, respectively. Although the Company has accrued all reasonably estimable costs of completing the actions defined in the current ongoing work plan agreed to between the Company and the EPA, it is possible that additional testing may be required or additional actions could be requested or mandated by the EPA at any time, resulting in the recognition of additional related expenses.
