SEGUIN, Texas - Alamo Group Inc. (NYSE:ALG), a $2.7 billion market cap equipment manufacturer currently trading near its 52-week high of $233.29, announced Monday that Robert P. Hureau will succeed Jeffery A. Leonard as President and Chief Executive Officer, effective September 2, 2025. According to InvestingPro analysis, the company maintains a "GOOD" financial health score, suggesting a stable foundation for this leadership transition.

Hureau most recently served as Chief Executive Officer of American Trailer World, a manufacturer and retailer of trailers, truck equipment and aftermarket parts. His previous experience includes executive positions at Pharmaceutical Product Development as EVP and Chief Financial Officer, and at Sensata Technologies as SVP and Chief Financial Officer.

"After thorough succession planning and a comprehensive executive search process, we are excited to welcome Robert as Jeff Leonard’s successor," said Rick Parod, Alamo Group’s Board Chair, in a press release statement. Parod added that the board believes Hureau has relevant experience for Alamo Group and is "the right person to lead the Company in its next phase of growth and development."

Leonard has served as President and CEO since 2021 and will be retiring from the position.

Alamo Group, founded in 1969, manufactures equipment for vegetation management, infrastructure maintenance and other applications. The company employs approximately 3,800 people and operates 27 plants across North America, Europe, Australia, and Brazil as of June 30, 2025.

The company’s product line includes truck and tractor mounted mowing equipment, street sweepers, snow removal equipment, excavators, vacuum trucks, agricultural implements, and forestry equipment, along with related after-market parts and services.

In other recent news, Alamo Group Inc. reported its second-quarter financial results for 2025, showcasing a mixed performance. The company achieved revenue of $419.1 million, surpassing analyst expectations. However, its earnings per share (EPS) came in at $2.57, slightly below the anticipated $2.59.
