↑ 16%Toro expands autonomous mowing range. New robotic mower for smaller, more confined areas of the course Toro has expanded its autonomous mowing range with the introduction of the Turf Pro 200. Designed for smaller, more confined areas of the course, including areas around the clubhouse, tighter landscaped spaces and other sections of turf that require regular maintenance, the Turf Pro 200 provides an autonomous mowing option for areas where larger machines may be unnecessary. It is suitable for sports and training environments too where consistent cutting is required with limited daily input. The launch comes as many greenskeeping teams continue to manage labour pressures alongside increasing expectations around presentation standards and site maintenance. In response, Toro has expanded its autonomous mowing portfolio with the Turf Pro 200, delivering a new option where consistency and efficiency are key considerations. Andrew Ihrke, Senior International Marketing Manager at The Toro Company, said: "The Turf Pro 200 delivers consistent performance in tighter spaces where maintaining presentation standards can be more labour-intensive. It is designed to integrate into existing maintenance programmes, giving greenskeeping teams a practical, autonomous option that complements their wider mowing operations. "Combined with the wider Turf Pro range, Range Pro 100 and Greensmaster eTriflex with GeoLink Mow, it gives operators more flexibility when building an autonomous mowing approach that reflects the needs of their individual site." The Turf Pro 200 joins the Turf Pro 300 and Turf Pro 500 as part of Toro's autonomous mowing range. With the 300 and 500 models addressing larger open turf areas, course managers now have the ability to match the right unit to specific site requirements and mowing frequencies. Alongside the Turf Pro range, Toro's GeoLink Mow system supports autonomous mowing across larger, high-use turf areas such as fairways. Together, the systems provide autonomous mowing coverage across a range of site conditions and maintenance requirements. For operators managing ongoing staffing pressures or looking to improve maintenance efficiency, autonomous mowing can also support the redistribution of labour towards other operational tasks. The Turf Pro range is available in the UK through distributor Reesink Turfcare. Reesink has a dedicated resource for customers adopting autonomous mowing providing support on installation, training, maintenance and parts.

The Toro Company has declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.39 per share of common stock. The dividend will be paid on 13 April 2026 to shareholders of record at the close of business on 30 March 2026. The Toro Company is a global provider of outdoor environment solutions, including turf and landscape maintenance, snow and ice management, underground construction and irrigation systems. The company reported net sales of $4.5 billion in fiscal 2025 and operates in more than 125 countries through brands including Toro, Ditch Witch, Exmark and BOSS.
Toro reported Q4 revenue of $1.04 billion, exceeding analyst expectations by 3.5% and marking 4.2% year-on-year growth. Non-GAAP earnings of $0.74 per share beat consensus estimates by 14.2%. CEO Rick Olson attributed the performance to strong demand for snow and ice products following winter storms, plus growth in underground and specialty construction markets. The recent acquisition of Tornado Infrastructure Equipment expanded the company's offerings in these segments. Toro's Accelerated Margin Performance programme delivered $95 million in cost savings towards a $125 million target, helping offset higher material costs. Management raised full-year adjusted EPS guidance to $4.50 at the midpoint, a 1.7% increase. The company emphasised continued investments in product innovation, including AI-enabled irrigation software and autonomous turf solutions, whilst maintaining disciplined inventory management.
The Toro Company reported strong first-quarter 2026 results, with consolidated net sales rising 4.2% to $1.04 billion. Adjusted earnings per share increased to $0.74 from $0.65 year-over-year, driven by performance in the professional segment. The professional segment generated $824 million in net sales and $137.6 million in earnings, whilst the residential segment posted $206 million in sales and $13.2 million in earnings. The company's AMP cost-savings programme has achieved $95 million towards its $125 million goal. However, challenges persist in international markets, particularly Europe and Asia, whilst the residential segment faces flat to 3% decline expectations. The company returned $133 million to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases, maintaining a leverage ratio of 1.5 times.
The Toro Company reported fourth-quarter revenue of $1.04 billion, up 4.2% year on year and exceeding analyst estimates by 3.5%. The outdoor equipment manufacturer's adjusted earnings per share of $0.74 beat consensus forecasts by 14.2%. Management raised full-year adjusted EPS guidance to $4.50 at the midpoint, a 1.7% increase. Operating margin held steady at 8.4%, whilst free cash flow improved to $14.6 million from negative $67.7 million in the prior-year quarter. The company's Professional segment, representing 79.5% of revenue, grew 3% over the past two years, whilst Residential revenue declined 11.8%. Analysts expect revenue to grow 3.3% over the next 12 months, though this remains below sector averages.
