Ward Nye, Chair and CEO of Martin Marietta, stated, “Our Company’s second-quarter performance is a testament to the value-added benefits of our geography and durable products. As a result, we established record quarterly aggregates revenues and second-quarter records for aggregates profitability, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, as sustained pricing momentum and effective cost management continue to yield strong results. Additionally, our Magnesia Specialties business achieved record quarterly revenues and second-quarter records for gross profit and gross margin. Importantly, the first six months of 2025 represented the lowest total reportable incident rate in Martin Marietta’s history. Given our strong first-half performance, together with acquisition contributions and current shipment trends, we are increasing our full-year 2025 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to $2.30 billion at the midpoint.

"Demand across our primary end markets remains varied. Infrastructure activity remains robust, underpinned by sustained record levels of federal and state investment. In nonresidential, accelerating data center development and a warehouse recovery are contributing positively to near-term demand, partially offsetting relative softness in interest rate-sensitive light commercial construction. We expect residential construction demand to remain subdued until ongoing affordability headwinds improve.

"We also continued our portfolio refinement, with a focus on generating consistently higher margins. On August 3, we entered into a definitive agreement with Quikrete Holdings, Inc. (Quikrete) for the exchange of certain of its aggregates operations for our Midlothian cement plant, related cement terminals and North Texas ready-mixed concrete assets. Additionally, on July 25, we completed the acquisition of Premier Magnesia, LLC (Premier), a privately-owned producer of magnesia-based products. This earnings-accretive transaction wholly aligns with our SOAR 2025 growth priorities and enhances our position as the leading producer of natural and synthetic magnesia-based products in the United States."

Mr. Nye concluded, "Martin Marietta's resilient aggregates-led building materials business in economically and structurally advantaged markets, together with our highly complementary Magnesia Specialties business, provides enduring earnings strength through periods of demand cyclicality. These pillars, anchored by the disciplined execution of our proven strategy, deep experience navigating through cycles and our clear runway for quality growth, solidify our foundation, enabling us to consistently deliver superior shareholder value creation."

Second-Quarter Financial and Operating Results

(Comparisons are versus the prior-year second quarter, unless otherwise noted)

Building Materials Business

The Building Materials business reported revenues of $1.7 billion, a 2 percent increase. Gross profit increased 3 percent to $517 million.

Aggregates

Second-quarter aggregates shipments decreased 0.6 percent to 52.7 million tons, as softening demand in Colorado and wet weather largely offset relative strength in the Southeast and acquisition contributions. Pricing momentum continued, as average selling price (ASP) increased 7.4 percent to $23.21 per ton.

Aggregates gross profit increased 9 percent to $430 million and gross margin expanded 94 basis points to 33 percent, both second-quarter records, driven by continued price/cost improvement.

Cement and Downstream Businesses

Cement and ready mixed concrete revenues decreased 6 percent to $245 million due primarily to lower shipments. Gross profit decreased 25 percent to $54 million due to lower shipments and higher ready mix raw material costs.

Asphalt and paving revenues decreased 7 percent to $228 million and gross profit decreased 8 percent to $33 million due to lower shipments and higher costs.

Magnesia Specialties Business

Magnesia Specialties achieved record quarterly revenues of $90 million, while gross profit increased 32 percent to $36 million and gross margin improved 605 basis points to 40 percent, both second-quarter records. This performance was due primarily to strong pricing, improved lime shipments, operational reliability and efficiency gains.

Portfolio Optimization

On July 25, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of Premier, a privately-owned producer of magnesia-based products with operations in Nevada, North Carolina, Indiana and Pennsylvania.

The Company entered into a definitive agreement with Quikrete on August 3, 2025, for the exchange of certain assets. Under the terms of the agreement, Martin Marietta will receive aggregates operations producing approximately 20 million tons annually in Virginia, Missouri, Kansas and Vancouver, British Columbia, as well as $450 million in cash. In exchange, Quikrete will receive the Company’s Midlothian cement plant, related cement terminals and North Texas ready-mixed concrete assets (Divestiture Assets). The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2026, subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

These portfolio optimizing transactions collectively provide for an increasingly robust aggregates-led business possessing a more durable and resilient earnings profile through cycles while preserving balance sheet flexibility for continued strategic plan execution.

Cash Generation, Capital Allocation and Liquidity

Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was $605 million compared with $173 million for the prior-year period. 2025 cash provided by operating activities reflects the impact of deferred income tax payments in connection with disaster tax relief provided by the Internal Revenue Service, while 2024 included higher income tax payments resulting from the taxable gain associated with the February 2024 divestiture of the South Texas cement business and certain related ready mixed concrete operations.

Cash paid for property, plant and equipment additions for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was $412 million.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company returned $547 million to shareholders through dividend payments and share repurchases. As of June 30, 2025, 11.0 million shares remained under the current repurchase authorization.

The Company had $225 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents on hand and $1.2 billion of unused borrowing capacity on its existing credit facilities as of June 30, 2025.

Full-Year 2025 Guidance

The Company's 2025 guidance table below reflects the Premier acquisition as of its closing date and includes the results of operations for the Divestiture Assets which will be classified as discontinued operations beginning with the third quarter of 2025.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This earnings release contains financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). The Appendix contains reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the closest GAAP measures. Management believes these non-GAAP measures are commonly used by investors to evaluate the Company’s performance and, when read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements, present a useful tool to evaluate the Company’s ongoing business performance from period to period and anticipated performance. Additionally, these are some of the factors the Company uses in internal evaluations of the overall performance of its businesses. Management acknowledges that many factors impact reported results, and the adjustments in these non-GAAP measures do not account for all such factors. Furthermore, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Second-quarter results and trends described in this release may not necessarily be indicative of the Company’s future performance. The Company’s outlook is subject to various risks and uncertainties and is based on assumptions that the Company believes in good faith are reasonable, but which may be materially different from actual results. Factors that the Company currently believes could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this release (including the outlook and 2025 Guidance) include, but are not limited to: the ability of the Company to face challenges, including shipment declines resulting from economic and weather events beyond the Company’s control; a widespread decline in aggregates pricing, including a decline in aggregates shipment volume negatively affecting aggregates price; the tendency of cement and ready mixed concrete sales being subject to significant changes in supply, demand and price fluctuations; the termination, capping and/or reduction or suspension of the federal and/or state fuel tax(es) or other revenue related to public construction; the impact of the new Administration on the amount available under and timing of federal and state infrastructure spending; the level and timing of federal, state or local transportation or infrastructure or public projects funding and any issues arising from such federal and state budgets, most particularly in Texas, North Carolina, Colorado, California, Georgia, Florida, Minnesota, Arizona, South Carolina and Iowa; the United States Congress' inability to reach agreement among themselves or with the Executive Branch on policy issues that impact the federal budget; the ability of states and/or other entities to finance approved projects either with tax revenues or alternative financing structures; levels of construction spending in the markets the Company serves; a reduction in defense spending and the subsequent impact on construction activity on or near military bases; a decline in energy-related construction activity resulting from a sustained period of low global oil prices or changes in oil production patterns or capital spending in response to such a decline, particularly in Texas; sustained high mortgage interest rates and other factors that have resulted in a slowdown in private construction in some geographies; unfavorable weather conditions, particularly Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean and Gulf Coast storm and hurricane activity, wildfires, the late start to spring or the early onset of winter and the impact of a drought, excessive rainfall or extreme temperatures in the markets served by the Company, any of which can significantly affect production schedules, volumes, product and/or geographic mix and profitability; the volatility of fuel and energy costs, particularly diesel fuel, electricity, natural gas and the impact on the cost, or the availability generally, of other consumables, namely steel, explosives, tires and conveyor belts, and with respect to the Company’s Magnesia Specialties business, natural gas; costs of raw materials, including bitumen; continued increases in the cost of other repair and supply parts; construction labor shortages and/or supply chain challenges; labor relations risks, including unionization efforts, work stoppages or strikes, particularly in jurisdictions with increasing labor advocacy and evolving labor law frameworks; workforce demographics-related risks, including difficulty recruiting and retaining skilled employees, particularly for physically demanding roles in rural or less-populated markets; unexpected equipment failures, unscheduled maintenance, industrial accident or other prolonged and/or significant disruption to production facilities; the resiliency and potential declines of the Company’s various construction end-use markets; the potential negative impacts of outbreak of disease, epidemic or pandemic, or similar public health threat, or fear of such event, and its related economic or societal response, including any impact on the Company's suppliers, customers or other business partners as well as on its employees; the performance of the United States economy; governmental regulation, including environmental laws and climate change regulations at both the state and federal levels; future implementation of emissions-based taxes or carbon-pricing schemes and/or more stringent state or federal climate-related regulatory requirements that may materially increase cement operating costs or restrict cement production capacity; difficulty in securing timely land use approvals or environmental permits for development, expansion, or ongoing operations in the face of potentially shifting public and regulatory expectations; the outcome of environmental or land use-related proceedings, or increased costs associated with regulatory obligations linked to resource extraction, including site reclamation; transportation availability or a sustained reduction in capital investment by the railroads, notably the availability of railcars, locomotive power and the condition of rail infrastructure to move trains to supply the Company’s Texas, Southeast and Gulf Coast markets, including the movement of essential dolomitic lime for magnesia chemicals to the Company’s plant in Manistee, Michigan and its customers; increased transportation costs, including increases from higher or fluctuating passed-through energy costs or fuel surcharges, and other costs to comply with tightening regulations, as well as higher volumes of rail and water shipments; availability of trucks and licensed drivers for transport of the Company’s materials; availability and cost of construction equipment in the United States; weakening in the steel industry markets served by the Company’s dolomitic lime products; potential impact on costs, supply chain, oil and gas prices, or other matters relating to geopolitical conflicts, including the war between Russia and Ukraine, the war in Israel and related conflict in the Middle East and any potential conflict between China and Taiwan; trade disputes with one or more nations impacting the U.S. economy, including the impact of tariffs; unplanned changes in costs or realignment of customers that introduce volatility to earnings, including that of the Magnesia Specialties business; proper functioning of information technology and automated operating systems to manage or support operations; risks associated with third-party technology vendors, including exposure to cybersecurity vulnerabilities or service outages due to reliance on external software platforms or IT infrastructure; inflation and its effect on both production and interest costs; the concentration of customers in construction markets and the increased risk of potential losses on customer receivables; the impact of the level of demand in the Company’s end-use markets, production levels and management of production costs on the operating leverage and therefore profitability of the Company; the possibility that the expected synergies from acquisitions will not be realized or will not be realized within the expected time period, including achieving anticipated profitability to maintain compliance with the Company’s leverage ratio debt covenants; the strategic benefits, outlook, performance and opportunities expected as a result of acquisitions and portfolio optimization will not be realized; risks related to executive succession planning, retention and development of leadership talent critical to strategic execution, including potential adverse effects in the event of unexpected transitions or departures; changes in tax laws, the interpretation of such laws and/or administrative practices, including acquisitions or divestitures, that would increase the Company’s tax rate; violation of the Company’s debt covenants if price and/or volumes return to previous levels of instability; cybersecurity risks; downward pressure on the Company’s common stock price and its impact on goodwill impairment evaluations; the possibility of a reduction of the Company’s credit rating to non-investment grade; and other risk factors listed from time to time found in the Company’s filings with the SEC.
