For the first six months of 2020 net sales were a record $583.1 million compared to $547.1 million in the previous year’s first six month period, an increase of 6.6%. Net income for the first half of 2020 was $28.5 million, or $2.41 per diluted share, versus $35.9 million, or $3.05 per diluted share, for the same period in 2019, a decrease of 20.6% in net income.

The results for the second quarter and first six months of 2020 include the effects of the acquisition of Dutch Power, which was completed in March 2019, and the acquisition of Morbark, completed in October 2019. Together these acquisitions contributed $58.0 million to net sales and $2.5 million to net income in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $14.0 million in net sales and $0.9 million in net income in the second quarter of 2019. For the first six months of 2020, these acquisitions contributed $124.5 million to net sales and $6.0 million to net income compared to $17.6 million in net sales and $1.1 million in net income in the first six months of 2019. The above results also include the negative effects of non-cash inventory step up charges of approximately $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2020 and $2.7 million in the first six months of 2020 related to the Morbark acquisition. The acquisition of Dixie Chopper was completed in September 2019, however its contribution to consolidated results was not material.

Alamo Group’s results for the second quarter and first six months of 2020 were affected by issues related to the COVID-19 pandemic which began to materially impact the Company in March of the current year and is ongoing. In late March and throughout most of April, the Company experienced multiple plant closures most notably in France and England and to a lesser extent in the U.S. and Canada. The plants have now reopened and currently all Alamo Group manufacturing facilities are functioning at various levels of operation based on demand. In total, out of a workforce of approximately 4,270 employees at the beginning of 2020, we have 550 workers on some form of a furlough, temporary layoff or other such arrangements as of the end of June. In addition, we have had permanent reductions in work force totaling about 200 positions. We also have about 269 employees involved in various government sponsored work share programs working reduced hours. In addition to the above, we have

approximately 225 employees working remotely. All the above numbers change on a regular basis as a result of changing conditions and production needs to meet current market demand. For the most part the Company, supported by its supply chain, is functioning in a somewhat normal, though at a reduced level of operation and is able to meet most demand in a timely fashion.

Results by Division

Net sales for Alamo Group's Industrial Division in the second quarter of 2020 were $182.3 million, compared to $194.3 million in the prior year, a decrease of 6.2%. The Division’s income from operations for the quarter was $13.9 million compared to $21.5 million in the second quarter of 2019, a decrease of 35.5%. For the first six months of 2020, the Industrial Division's net sales were $412.2 million versus $367.8 million in the first six months of 2019, an increase of 12.1%. The Division's income from operations for the first six months of 2020 was $32.2 million versus $38.5 million in the same period of the prior year, a decrease of 16.3%.

The Industrial Division's results included the effects of the acquisitions of Dutch Power and Morbark mentioned previously. These acquisitions contributed $58.0 million to net sales and $3.8 million to income from operations in the second quarter of 2020 compared to $14.0 million in net sales and $1.2 million in income from operations contributed by Dutch Power in the previous year's second quarter. For the first six months of 2020, these acquisitions contributed $124.5 million to the Division's net sales and $8.1 million to income from operations compared to $17.6 million in net sales and $1.5 million in income from operations contributed by Dutch Power in the first six months of 2019. The Industrial Division's results include the negative effects of non-cash inventory step up charges of approximately $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2020 and $2.7 million for the first six months as mentioned above. While the Industrial Division's sales benefited from the acquisition of Dutch Power and Morbark, this was more than offset in the second quarter by reduced sales related to the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact this has had on demand for the Division's products.

The Company's Agricultural Division net sales in the second quarter of 2020 were $86.4 million compared to $90.9 million in the prior year's second quarter, a decrease of 5.0%. The Division's income from operations for the quarter was $8.8 million compared to $7.8 million in 2019, an increase of 12.2%. For the first six months of 2020, the Agricultural Division's net sales were $170.9 million versus $179.3 million in the prior year, a decrease of 4.7%. The Division's income from operations for the first six months of 2020 was $14.3 million compared to $13.5 million in the prior year, an increase of 6.2%, as a result of cost control and a favorable product mix. The Agricultural Division's results have been impacted by the repercussions from the COVID-19 pandemic, though to a lesser extent than our Industrial Division. Also, the Division's North American operations have held up better in the short term than its European operations, which experienced more operational and demand issues during the second quarter.

Comments on Results

Ron Robinson, Alamo Group's President and Chief Executive Officer, commented on Alamo's second quarter results as follows: "While our second quarter results were down, given the environment in which we continue to operate, they were in line with our expectations. I am proud of all the dedicated people at our Company who have worked so hard to achieve these results, given the many operational challenges we experienced - temporary plant closures, supply chain issues, stay at home directives, customer constraints and other issues, which all effected our operations during the quarter, but we managed to continue to function throughout this time and generally deliver our products when and as required.

"Fortunately, many of these challenging conditions with functionality for us, our vendors and our customers have eased and currently all of our facilities are now operating, though generally at reduced levels. The same is true for our supply chain. Our customers are also operating at a more effective level than at the beginning of the crisis as communication levels have generally improved. We hope the progress we are seeing does not move in a negative direction as many areas in which we operate are dealing with increased levels of cases related to COVID-19.

"While we are glad to see the improved functionality we are concerned about the effects this pandemic is having on our markets and the overall economic environment. We feel the challenging business climate will impact our business for the balance of 2020 and into next year as well. Fortunately, both our Industrial and Agricultural customers are using our equipment on a regular basis, but budget constraints and lower incomes are impacting new order placements. Our bookings are still active and coming in at a consistent pace, but at levels that are below our typical pace. Our Agricultural Division products are holding up at a little better pace since the agricultural industry is functioning reasonably well and seems to have less downside since this sector had already been operating at a reduced level for the last several years. Our Industrial Division equipment, which is highly focused on infrastructure maintenance operations for various governmental entities is seeing more challenging conditions as reduced levels of tax revenue has had a heavier impact on governmental operating budgets. Still, we feel Alamo should continue to hold up a little better than many other industrial equipment manufacturers and rebound more quickly when conditions start to improve as a result of the historic stability of the types of equipment we provide, which are used regularly even during times such as these and need replacing on a steady basis.

"We also believe, while our results will be negatively impacted during this downturn, as evidenced by past economic upheavals, our cash flow should remain strong as demonstrated in our second quarter results. Despite reduced sales and earnings, we paid down over $50 million in debt during the quarter, while maintaining high cash levels of over $80 million. We achieved this through a combination of balance sheet management and expense control as we focused on reducing inventory and receivables in line with sales reductions and cut back on capital spending among other actions. We feel such measures will allow us to maintain our financial stability going forward, even as economic conditions remain soft.

"Alamo is also continuing to benefit from our backlog which is still at a healthy level of $217 million. This came down 6.9% during the second quarter, compared to the first quarter of 2020, but gives us a good base to support our operations as we move into the second half of the year. Certainly, new bookings are the key to our ongoing results and while they are continuing at a steady pace, we would like to see them

at a higher level than we are currently experiencing. Until they return to a more historic level, we will continue to take all reasonable actions to manage our business including adjusting our staff levels commensurate with production needs, controlling our expenses, limiting capital expenditures and other actions to maintain our financial stability and ensure Alamo Group can continue to meet our customers' needs for the benefit of our Company, our employees, our vendors and our stakeholders. We thank you for your support during these challenging times."

Alamo Group Inc.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation

From time to time, Alamo Group Inc. may disclose certain “non-GAAP financial measures” in the course of its earnings releases, earnings conference calls, financial presentations and otherwise. For these purposes, “GAAP” refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) defines a “non-GAAP financial measure” as a numerical measure of historical or future financial performance, financial positions, or cash flows that is subject to adjustments that effectively exclude or include amounts from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by Alamo Group are provided as additional information to investors in order to provide them with greater transparency about, or an alternative method for assessing, our financial condition and operating results. These measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, GAAP and may be different from, or inconsistent with, non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies. Whenever we refer to a non-GAAP financial measure, we will also generally present the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, along with a reconciliation of the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure we reference and such comparable GAAP financial measure.

Attachment 1 discloses the impact of the Company's recently completed acquisitions upon Sales, Operating Income and Net Income all of which are non-GAAP financial measures. Attachment 2 discloses Adjusted Operating Income, Acquisition Adjusted Net Income and Acquisition Adjusted Diluted EPS, each adjusted to exclude the impact of the recently completed acquisitions, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures. Attachment 3 discloses a non-GAAP financial presentation related to the impact of currency translation on net sales by division. Attachment 4 shows the net change in our total debt net of cash and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") and Adjusted EBITDA excluding the impact of the step-up inventory charge at Morbark, all of which are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company considers this information useful to investors to allow better comparability of period-to-period operating performance.
