We grow our businesses by leveraging our existing products, markets and processes. We recognize that our growth will only create shareholder value if, at the same time, we exceed our cost of capital. essential to our success is a company-wide commitment to customer service and innovation, and the ability to be the best cost producer for all products and services we provide. recognizing that our employees are the cornerstone of our accomplishments, we pride ourselves on being people of passion and integrity who excel and deliver results. valmont’s vision [ 3 ] message to FelloW shareholders 2011 was a record year for Valmont. Revenue increased 35 percent and operating income increased 48 percent. Operating income as a percent of sales improved from 9 percent to 9.9 percent. Net earnings were also at a record level, and were enhanced by a one-time positive adjustment during the fourth quarter. Our return on invested capital improved to 11 percent from 8.8 percent in 2010. It is gratifying to note that we delivered a record operating performance despite the fact that our largest segment, Engineered Infrastructure Products, experienced significant headwinds in the North American and European markets. Improved performance in our Irrigation, Utility Support Structures and Coatings Segments more than offset this softness. Our 2010 acquisition of Delta plc was fully integrated this year. International sales have now increased to more than 40 percent of Valmont’s total – providing more balance globally. Our enhanced footprint in the Asia Pacific region should drive approximately one quarter of total revenues in 2012. This year we established a regional headquarters in Sydney, Australia and appointed a group president who is responsible for our Asia Pacific businesses. Through a matrix management structure and overlaying geographic responsibilities with our global product lines, we expect to maximize our performance by sharing knowledge, research and development between markets. The successes of matrix organizational structures are highly dependent on senior executives, with responsibility for either product lines or geography, working well together. I have been impressed with what I have seen. Our Irrigation Segment had a great year. The market for irrigation is strong for a number of reasons. Conserving the world’s fresh water supply is an enduring global driver. Ever- increasing global demands for food and the resulting good crop prices are driving farm incomes. As a consequence, farmer sentiment and capital investments in equipment are robust. I have never seen a stronger macro environment for our irrigation business. Our irrigation team and dealer organization responded very effectively to a substantial increase in sales volume and delivered record results. The Utility Support Structures Segment delivered much improved results compared to 2010. Electric utility companies in North America increased capital spending on large- scale projects to add physical capacity and improve the reliability of the grid. We expect spending to remain strong for a number of years as utilities connect alternative energy sources to the grid and upgrade their transmission and distribution network. [ 4 ] We are ideally positioned – through our products, capabilities and market presence – to help meet the needs of a growing population worldwide. In 2011, our structural businesses serving the lighting, traffic and telecommunication markets faced difficult markets. Weak government spending in the U.S. and Europe reduced global demand for highway lighting and other traffic structures. Limited demand and volatile steel costs compressed prices and margins in a highly competitive market, leading to unsatisfactory results. We believe infrastructure is a growth business; economic growth depends on investments in infrastructure. We remain confident in the longer-term prospects for these businesses. While we do not anticipate much improvement in market conditions in 2012, we do expect continued progress increasing productivity, streamlining operations and reducing costs. Therefore, we believe that earnings in this segment will improve. Our other businesses within this segment in the Asia Pacific region, such as engineered access systems and highway safety products, performed to expectations. Our Coatings Segment had a strong performance despite operating in a generally weak economy. Increased captive demand from Valmont’s Utility and Irrigation Segments in North America provided beneficial leverage. We are driving productivity improvements by continually sharing best practices in our galvanizing operations in North America and the Asia Pacific region. We have several other businesses that are not as large as the four in our segments. These businesses made a meaningful contribution to our results in 2011. The tubing business benefited from the strong agricultural economy. Our grinding media business in Australia saw good demand from the mining industry. Our electrolytic manganese dioxide business in South Africa benefited from stable market conditions and favorable foreign exchange rates. As I visit our facilities and meet with customers worldwide, I am gratified by the passion and commitment of our teams at every level. The customer-driven innovations and service models that are shared within and among units support Valmont’s culture of continuous improvement and build the platform necessary for our further growth. Valmont anticipates another record year from operations in 2012. We expect market conditions for the Utility Support Structures Segment to continue to strengthen. We expect improved performance in our Engineered Infrastructure Products Segment, even absent a better market environment. Both our Coatings and Irrigation Segments should continue their strong performance. The agricultural economy will continue to be driven by the need for food and water management as growing middle class populations move towards higher protein diets, increasing demand for feed grains. We cannot control economic conditions; however, Valmont will continue to leverage our products, markets and capabilities. We will maintain our focus on productivity, safety and customer engagement. The world’s increasing investments in infrastructure enhancements and water conservation solutions to help secure food supply are inevitable. Valmont is constantly scanning the horizon for potentially disruptive designs or technologies. We are confident that mechanized irrigation is the best means of water delivery for large-scale agriculture. Our structural support products remain the best way to support objects in the air. Galvanizing is the best coating to extend the product life of steel. We are ideally positioned – through our products, capabilities and market presence – to help meet the needs of a growing population worldwide. We welcomed two new members to our Board: James B. Milliken, President of the University of Nebraska, and Catherine Paglia, a director of Enterprise Asset Management, Inc. We are looking forward to benefiting from their experience and counsel. At the end of 2011, Clarice Barnhill retired. For more than 60 years, Clarice was the devoted Executive Secretary to our founder Robert B. Daugherty. She is the supreme ambassador of the Valmont culture. Our company is undoubtedly better for her loyal service and warmth. We wish her well in her retirement. Thank you for your continued support and shared enthusiasm. I look forward to updating you on our progress in the year ahead. Sincerely, Mogens C.

But today, because our resources are constrained, we must invest wisely, maximize returns on our existing systems, and use those assets more productively.” Frankel is the former commissioner of the national connectivity, metropolitan accessibility, Connecticut Department of Transportation energy security and environmental sustainability, (1991-1995) and former assistant secretary and safety. The Project advocates reform, including of transportation policy of the U.S. Department increased funding for research and planning, so that of Transportation (2002-2005). He has devoted state and metropolitan institutions have the capacity his career to issues of transportation, energy, and motivation to implement comprehensive, environmental policy and public management. strategic and performance-driven capital programs. The BPC’s National Transportation Policy Project directed by Frankel has recommended five goals for U.S. surface transportation policy: economic growth, Valmont’s drive to create sustainable infrastructure systems complements these goals. [ 11 ] engineered infrastructure products strengthening foundations. products Growth in the Engineered Infrastructure Products segment will come through urbanization in developing countries, and by meeting the demand for new and upgraded infrastructure in developed markets where product needs include residential decorative lighting poles and citywide traffic and transportation systems. With a broad range of infrastructure products, from high- way safety barriers to support structures to engineered access systems, Valmont can participate in infrastructure development opportunities around the globe. For example, in the Asia Pacific region, technological innovation has allowed us to introduce an exciting new guardrail product in Australia. Our Webforge® brand of engineered grating and access systems provides a strong growth platform to participate in the region’s burgeoning mining and infrastructure investment. markets Despite reduced government spending on infrastructure in 2011, particularly in North America and Europe, opportunities for Valmont to grow are plentiful. Growth strategies are in place around the globe to bring Valmont products to markets where we already have a presence. For example, our innovative decorative wood lighting pole products are finding new demand in European markets. We are also proud of our work with customers who wish to highlight unique community identities with customized structures and cityscapes. In 2011, Valmont teams in the [ 12 ] strengthening foundations. U.S. completed a picturesque, multi-level custom bridge project in Austin, TX, as well as a signature “Welcome” sign in Monrovia, CA. Many municipalities in Europe hold elections during which mayors make a point to invest money in infrastructure. We anticipate that decorative lighting opportunities in those cities will increase. capabilities Though each Valmont facility is unique, locations world- wide share best practices to make sure that customer needs are optimally met. Mindful that our natural resources are finite and energy is becoming more costly, Valmont optimizes designs to reduce waste, and maximizes usage of recyclable materials like steel and aluminum. Conscious of aesthetics as well, many structures are designed to inconspicuously blend with the surroundings – in harmony with natural environments. Environmental responsibility includes not only driving change, but also responding to it. In the lighting market, Valmont is participating in the shift from incandescent lighting to LED through modified pole structure solutions. customers Building strong relationships with customers is becoming increasingly collaborative. Valmont is focusing on customer- centric metrics, like delivery speed and quality, by offering better engineering support at a quicker pace and working with third-party testing facilities to continually enhance our technical skills. By establishing multiple sites in different regions, we ensure that products and support services have a local presence, enabling us to remain competitive in key global markets. building communities.

Daileader, Jr., Partner at Nixon Peabody llP. “What will remain constant, in my view, is the [united states’] absolute need to modernize and expand the transmission grid so that new generation can reach people in a reliable and cost-effective manner. “although there will continue to be disputes between policy-makers and regulators about how decisions are made in terms of transmission planning and cost recovery and allocation, I am confident that there will continue to be consensus at both the federal and state levels that more transmission is needed, and that policies to encourage investment in upgrading the grid need to be in place.” Daileader concentrates his practice at Nixon as well as the corresponding regulatory Peabody – in Energy, Energy Transactions, approvals. He is currently representing clients Project Finance and Project Counsel – on a wide in the development of several transmission upgrade range of energy and public utility issues. Over projects throughout the U.S.; and is in agreement the past several years, he has participated in with Valmont and Valmont customers that transactions involving the development and it is imperative to advance an environmentally financing, and purchase and sale, of numerous conscious power transmission system electric generation and transmission facilities, of the utmost efficiency and reliability. [ 15 ] utility powering opportunities. products As countries in Central America, South America, Africa and Asia develop, people are looking to improve their standard of living. In fact, over 1.6 billion people in the world still do not have electricity. Consequently, the demand for electrical power is increasing. Valmont is penetrating new markets and stimulating growth by providing the transmission and distribution infrastructure to connect communities. We have entered into India during this unprecedented period of rapid industrialization, which requires construction of new power transmission lines, lighting and telecommunication poles, and electrified rail systems. In increasingly congested urban spaces of the Asia Pacific region, existing lattice tower structures have large physical footprints. Our new pole plant and galvanizing operation in India will supply monopole towers that conserve valuable land area in one of the most populated regions in the world. markets Our utility business is seeing more activity in North American markets than ever before. U.S. investment in utility transmission reached nearly $13 billion in 2011 – more than three times higher than just a decade ago.1 Utility customers are upgrading transmission lines across the nation to respond to the demand for reliable higher voltage transmission and renewable wind and solar energy. In particular, there is a major emphasis on transmitting power from remote wind farm locations to consumers in heavily-populated urban areas. One example is in Texas, [ 16 ] powering opportunities. where the Competitive Renewable Energy Zones (CREZ) Project has designated five wind-generated energy facilities across the state. Valmont is providing concrete, steel and hybrid poles to large utilities and other utility service companies constructing more than 4,000 miles of transmission lines to support this ambitious project. Although a complete transmission grid is not yet in place to connect all of the United States as the interstate high- way system does, Valmont support structures are playing a significant role in its development. capabilities Because power is more efficiently transmitted at a higher voltage, we are continually exploring the most cost-effective engineered solutions to maximize transmission structure productivity by modifying design and combining materials. customers Valmont collaborates with utility customers to conceive truly optimal material and design solutions that meet the world’s increasing demand for power. Steel, concrete or hybrid poles are the ideal structures to serve customer needs depending upon the accessibility, terrain, climate and soil conditions of a given area, as well as aesthetic preference. Substituting lattice towers with monopoles conserves steel, space and visual impact. 1Wamsted, Dennis J. “Tangible Results: Utilities across the nation use Federal Energy Regulatory Commission transmission construction incentives to build a host of new projects.” Electric Perspectives, Vol. 36, No. 5, September/October 2011, 35. energizing connections.

Kenneth g. cassman heuermann professor of agronomy chair at the university of nebraska at lincoln and chair of the independent science & partnership council (ispc) of the consultative group on international agricultural research (cgiar) i n o t a g r r i i [ 18 ] “ By 2050, 70 percent of our human population will live in cities. there is no way that we will be able to supply an urban population of that magnitude without substantial investment in irrigated agriculture,” said Dr. kenneth G. cassman, Heuermann Professor of agronomy at the university of Nebraska at lincoln and chair of the independent science & Partnership council (isPc) of the consultative Group on international agricultural Research (cGiaR). “having said this, it’s clear we are not going to have more water. that’s where companies like Valmont – concerned with the efficiency of water use – come in. You can’t cut down every forest and you can’t drain every swamp; we have to double the yields on existing land and we have to do that with the same amount of water. That’s got to be one of the most significant challenges facing humankind. . . . it’s clear to me that irrigation is fundamental, and companies improving it have to play a leading role.” Dr. Cassman has had the opportunity to work in investment in the expansion of irrigated agriculture nearly every major agricultural production system such that, today, more than one-third of all crop land worldwide during his career, and was among the in Asia is irrigated. first to predict that food prices must rise, threatening economic development, unless major agricultural initiatives were undertaken on a global scale. The “green revolution” in Africa, where there is tremendous poverty, food insecurity and malnutrition, is a focus of Dr. Cassman’s. He compares it to the most recent green revolution in Asia made possible by several components – not the least of which was massive Valmont shares Dr. Cassman’s passion for responding to the increasing demand for sustainable food sources, as well as the critical need for conservation of our limited freshwater supply. [ 19 ] irrigation sustaining resources. products Seven billion people in the world need food. Mechanized irrigation provides a highly efficient means to sustain precious water supply and farmland to generate the food that improving diets require. Through our global network of manufacturing locations and dealers, we can demonstrate to growers the benefits of mechanized irrigation equipment over traditional flood irrigation methods. This, in turn, will help growers conserve resources and become better stewards of their land. Our model for international growth, honed in markets such as Brazil and South Africa, is now being applied to other geographies. For example, our China manufacturing operation has been operating for over a year using equipment and processes perfected in North and South America, and South Africa. As a result of years of sales efforts in China, we expect growing demand and anticipate that the Chinese government will strive to become more self-sufficient and rely less on imports. Likewise, we see great potential for growth in Russia and other neighboring countries over the next several years due to greater public and private investment in agriculture. markets Irrigation was the foundation of Valmont’s business in North America over a half-century ago and our global leadership in the industry continues. Recognizing that food production will need to double within the next 40 years using less water and land, we expect the use [ 20 ] of our products to accelerate in both developed and emerging markets. Replacement of aging irrigation equipment in North America will continue as producers work to optimize crop yields for fiber, row crops, bio-diesel and ethanol. We have a significant opportunity to explore new applica- tions for and increase adoption of mechanized irrigation technology worldwide. With our global network of plants, we have the opportunity to reach virtually every grower and help countries become self-sufficient food producers. capabilities Only one percent of the world’s water is available for human consumption, and agriculture already uses 70 percent of it. Mechanized irrigation improves efficient water usage up to 70 percent, as compared to flood methods. We continue to explore innovative methodolo- gies to ensure that our Valley® brand center-pivot and linear irrigation equipment continues to be synonymous with quality and reliability. Equally critical to our success is our global network of dealers who share a passion for our products, personalized service and continuous improvement. customers Valmont is driven to develop products that make life better for producers of food, fiber and biofuels. With an absolute commitment to both agriculture and infrastructure, we are working to provide solutions to help meet the needs of the 9 billion people our planet will hold by 2050. Our manufacturers and dealers around the world are dedicated to making each year more productive than the last. nourishing futures. [ 21 ] lawrence Kavanagh president of the steel market development institute i s g n t a o c [ 22 ] “ For the past 15 years, Valmont has worked closely with the steel market development institute and other partners to bring cost-effective and reliable electricity delivery solutions to north america with galvanized steel utility distribution poles,” said lawrence kavanagh, President of the steel Market Development institute. “a key part of our business strategy is directly engaging management at the electric utility companies to discuss how steel poles can meet the ever-increasing demands for electricity distribution networks, e.g., by galvanizing to ensure strength and long life. We appreciate Valmont’s commitment and leadership in growing “ the market for steel poles, which now includes major power distributors like tucson electric power and san diego gas & electric.” The Steel Market Development Institute (SMDI) is a business unit of the American Iron and Steel Institute. Valmont is a founding member of the organization’s Steel Utility Pole Task Group. [ 23 ] coatings protecting materials. products Protected from corrosion, fabricated steel products look better and last longer. What began as an operation to best preserve the life of our own products has quickly become an opportunity to enhance product lives in new markets globally. Developing countries are allocating financial resources to extend the service lives of their critical infrastructure investments. With 12 existing galvanizing operations in Australia and Southeast Asia, a new plant opening in India in April 2012, and a total of 17 plants in North America, Valmont now has a presence in many high-growth markets. We are coating a variety of steel materials such as highway products, communication towers, sign structures and structural steel used in petrochemical plants. markets Fifteen years ago, 98 percent of the galvanizing performed at our single plant in Valley, Nebraska was for Valmont products. Now, coating our own products represent less than one-fifth of our total volumes; the remaining volumes are commercial – touching nearly every industry in North America, Australia and Southeast Asia. Due to the robust corrosion-protective characteristics of galvanization, we are continually seeking new applications and responding to shifts in the diverse array of adjacent markets we already serve. For example, as the demand for power and new alternative energy technologies increases, so does the need for lasting petrochemical and utility support infrastructure. [ 24 ] protecting materials. capabilities The diversity of the markets for which we provide protective coatings, both internal and external, is the reason for our success and further growth opportunities. We are able to exchange knowledge with and leverage competencies from our recently acquired facilities in the Asia Pacific region to match environmentally- conscious processes. Hot-dip galvanizing combines two sustainable products: fabricated steel and molten zinc. By using these materials wisely, we are enabling investments in critical infrastructure and other products to last up to 50 or 100 years. customers Although Valmont’s Coatings customers are primarily industrial, consumers come in contact with our coatings daily in recreation, agriculture, energy and transportation. Valmont’s coatings services enhance and protect the physical and financial well-being of our communities. Every detail of our process is considered, down to the chemistries of the zinc bath used in the coating. Galvanizing helps safeguard our roads and bridges from premature corrosion. It helps our neighborhoods with long-lasting poles for power and lighting. Galvanization of critical infrastructure, to extend the service life of products, is a good investment in the future. maximizing capabilities.

capital represents total assets minus total liabilities (excluding interest- bearing debt. return on invested capital is one of our key operating ratios, as it allows investors to analyze our operating performance in light of the amount of investment required to generate our operating profit. return on invested capital is also a measurement used to determine management incentives. return on invested capital is not a measure of financial performance or liquidity under generally accepted accounting principles (Gaap). accordingly, return on invested capital should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings, cash flows from operations or other income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with Gaap or as a measure of our operating performance or liquidity. return on invested capital, as presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. (b) earnings before interest, taxes, Depreciation and amortization (eBitDa) is one of our key financial ratios in that it is the basis for determining our maximum borrowing capacity at any one time. our bank credit agreements contain a financial covenant that our total interest-bearing debt not exceed 3.75x eBitDa for the most recent twelve month period. if this covenant is violated, we may incur additional financing costs or be required to pay the debt before its maturity date. eBitDa is not a measure of financial performance or liquidity under Gaap and, accordingly, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings, cash flows from operations or other income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with Gaap or as a measure of our operating performance or liquidity. (c) return on beginning shareholders’ equity is calculated by dividing net earnings attributable to Valmont industries, inc. by the prior year’s ending total Valmont industries, inc. shareholders equity. (d) long-term debt as a percent of invested capital is calculated as the sum of current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt divided by total invested capital. this is one of our key financial ratios in that it measures the amount of financial leverage on our balance sheet at any point in time. We also have covenants under our major debt agreements that relate to the amount of debt we carry. if those covenants are violated, we may incur additional financing costs or be required to pay the debt before its maturity date. We have an internal target to maintain this ratio at or below 40%. this ratio may exceed 40% from time to time to take advantage of opportunities to grow and improve our businesses. long-term debt as a percent of invested capital is not a measure of financial performance or liquidity under Gaap and, accordingly, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net earnings, cash flows from operations or other income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with Gaap or as a measure of our operating performance or liquidity. (e) see pages 21-22 of our attached company Form 10-K for tables that show how the financial measurements described in footnotes are calculated from our financial statements. forward-looking statements this report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the private securities litigation reform act of 1995. these forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that management has made in light of experience in the industries in which the company operates, as well as management’s perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors believed to be appropriate under the circumstances. these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. they involve risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond the company’s control) and assumptions. management believes that these forward- looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions. many factors could affect the company’s actual financial results and cause them to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. these factors include, among other things, risk factors described from time to time in the company’s reports to the securities and exchange commission, as well as future economic and market circumstances, industry conditions, company performance and financial results, operating efficiencies, availability and price of raw materials, availability and market acceptance of new products, product pricing, domestic and international competitive environments, and actions and policy changes of domestic and foreign governments. the company cautions that any forward-looking statements included in this report are made as of the date of this report.
