A Safer Solution for Rapid Deceleration on Impact Our Smart Cushion® crash attenuator allows vehicles to have longer ride-down distances in a crash. This is crucial for safety because it means: • a slower, more gradual deceleration • reducing the force applied to passenger's bodies It helps minimize the extreme gravitational impact that leads to severe injury or death. It's one of the ways we put SMART SAFETY FIRST when engineering our roadside safety products. #SmartCushion #SafetyInnovation #RoadwaySolutions #HillandSmith #RoadsideSafety #SavingLives

Exciting News for Our Trailer Business As part of Hill & Smith's ongoing growth strategy, we are merging our trailer business with National Signal in La Mirada, California. This transition allows us to combine resources, expertise and innovation under one roof – strengthening our ability to provide customers excellent and efficient service. While this means our Garland, Texas facility will be closing in late 2025, we view this as a strategic opportunity to align our operations for long-term success and invest in scalable solutions. We are grateful to our Garland team for their dedication and contributions, and we are committed to supporting them through this transition. At the same time, we are energized by the future and confident that this consolidation will position our trailer business for continued growth and innovation. We're looking forward to building even stronger solutions that continue to put smart safety first.

Not every crash has a story that ends like this. In Nevada, a fully loaded semi struck our Smart Cushion® system at highway speed. The attenuator prevented impact with the wall, and the driver survived. We’re reminded why safety innovation matters. He shouldn't have walked away. But he did because the Smart Cushion® was there. #HillandSmith #RoadsideSafety #SavingLives #SmartCushion
