Ward Nye, Chairman and CEO of Martin Marietta, stated, "In the third quarter, our team achieved record quarterly aggregates gross profit per ton, record third-quarter cash flows from operations, record third-quarter revenues and gross profit in our Magnesia Specialties business, and the best year-to-date safety performance in our Company's history. While these achievements demonstrate our continued success managing those factors we can control, well-chronicled weather-related events had major impacts on our third-quarter business results. Significant July precipitation together with Tropical Storm Debby in North Carolina, Hurricane Beryl in Texas and Hurricane Helene across much of our Southeast footprint all occurred during the quarter. Although these events are short-term and temporary, they nonetheless adversely impacted our third-quarter product shipments, geographic mix and financial results and, as a result, we revised our full-year 2024 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to $2.1 billion at the midpoint.

"In October, we acquired pure aggregates assets in South Florida and Southern California, both attractive growing markets. These bolt-on acquisitions are consistent with our Strategic Operating and Analysis (SOAR) plan and, together with the transactions completed in the first half of this year, further enhance our gross profit contribution from the aggregates product line and improve the long-term durability of our business.

"Looking ahead to 2025 and beyond, we expect to benefit from record levels of federal and state investments in highways, streets and bridges. Additionally, reshoring and the build-out of artificial intelligence infrastructure should provide steady growth in these aggregates-intensive end markets for years to come. Further, although higher interest rates continue to affect residential construction activity, we are encouraged by recent Federal Reserve policy actions and the likelihood of more interest rate cuts later this year, which should support a recovery in housing and, subsequently, light nonresidential construction activity."

Mr. Nye concluded, "Importantly, we fully expect our aggregates price/cost spread to continue to expand over time, driving improvement in unit profitability through macroeconomic cycles. With our resilient aggregates-led business model, strategically positioned footprint in the country's fastest-growing markets and continued disciplined execution of SOAR, Martin Marietta is firmly positioned to generate continued earnings growth and superior shareholder value creation."

Third-Quarter Financial and Operating Results

(All financial and operating results are for continuing operations and comparisons are versus the prior-year third quarter, unless otherwise noted)

Building Materials Business

The Building Materials business reported revenues of $1.8 billion, a 6 percent decrease. Gross profit decreased 9 percent to $588 million.

Aggregates

Third-quarter aggregates shipments declined 3.9 percent to 53.7 million tons, largely due to historically wet weather in the Company's East Division and softer warehouse and residential demand across the Company's footprint, partially offset by acquisitions. Average selling price (ASP) increased 7.7 percent to $21.52 per ton, or 8.9 percent on an organic mix-adjusted basis.

Aggregates gross profit decreased modestly to $438 million, driven primarily by lower operating leverage from reduced shipments and weather-driven inefficiencies, which were largely offset by acquisition contributions. Aggregates gross profit per ton increased 3 percent to a quarterly record of $8.16.

Cement and Downstream Businesses

Cement and ready mixed concrete revenues decreased 30 percent to $296 million and gross profit decreased 37 percent to $89 million compared with the prior-year quarter, primarily due to the February 2024 divestiture of the South Texas cement plant and related concrete operations.

Asphalt and paving revenues decreased 5 percent to $343 million as shipments were negatively impacted by wet weather, project delays and a softer nonresidential market. Gross profit decreased 8 percent to $61 million due to lower revenues and higher aggregates costs.

Magnesia Specialties Business

Magnesia Specialties delivered revenues and gross profit of $82 million and $29 million, respectively, both third-quarter records, as pricing growth and improved lime shipments more than offset lower chemical shipments.

Portfolio Optimization

During October 2024, the Company acquired pure aggregates assets in South Florida and Southern California.

Cash Generation, Capital Allocation and Liquidity

Cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was $773 million compared with $973 million for the prior-year period, reflecting the significant impact of increased 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 provided by operating activities for the third quarter was $601 million, an increase of 32 percent as compared with the prior-year quarter, due primarily to working capital improvements that more than offset lower net earnings.

Cash paid for property, plant and equipment additions for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, was $622 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company returned $591 million to shareholders through dividend payments and share repurchases. As of September 30, 2024, 11.9 million shares remained under the current repurchase authorization.

The Company had $52 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand and $1.1 billion of unused borrowing capacity on its existing credit facilities as of September 30, 2024.

a widespread decline in aggregates pricing, including a decline in aggregates shipment volume negatively affecting aggregates price; the history of both cement and ready mixed concrete 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 U.S. elections 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, Minnesota, Arizona, Iowa, Florida and Indiana; 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 and West Virginia; sustained high mortgage 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 of Mexico 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 resiliency and potential declines of the Company's various construction end-use markets; the potential negative impacts of new waves of COVID-19 or its variants, or any other 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; increasing governmental regulation, including environmental laws and climate change regulations at the federal and state levels; 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, Colorado, Florida, Carolinas and the 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 the war between Russia and Ukraine, the war in Israel and related conflict in the Middle East and the conflict between China and Taiwan; trade disputes with one or more nations impacting the U.S. economy, including the impact of tariffs on the steel industry; 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; 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 covenant; the strategic benefits, outlook, performance and opportunities expected as a result of acquisitions and portfolio optimization; 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 covenant 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.}

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Mix-adjusted average selling price (mix-adjusted ASP) is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the impact of period-over-period product, geographic and other mix on the average selling price. Mix-adjusted ASP is calculated by comparing current-period shipments to like-for-like shipments in the comparable prior period. Management uses this metric to evaluate the realization of pricing increases and believes this information is useful to investors. The following reconciles reported average selling price to mix-adjusted ASP and corresponding variances.
