Organization

Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. (the Company or Martin Marietta) is a natural resource-based building materials company. The Company supplies aggregates (crushed stone, sand and gravel) through its network of more than 300 quarries, mines and distribution yards in 27 states, Canada and the Bahamas. In the western United States, Martin Marietta also provides cement and downstream products, namely, ready mixed concrete, asphalt and paving services, in vertically-integrated structured markets where the Company has a leading aggregates position. The Company’s heavy-side building materials are used in infrastructure, nonresidential and residential construction projects. Aggregates are also used in agricultural, utility and environmental applications and as railroad ballast. The aggregates, cement, ready mixed concrete and asphalt and paving product lines are reported collectively as the “Building Materials” business.

The Company’s Building Materials business includes three reportable segments: the Mid-America Group, the Southeast Group and the West Group.

The Magnesia Specialties business produces magnesia-based chemicals products used in industrial, agricultural and environmental applications, and dolomitic lime sold primarily to customers in the steel and mining industries.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Other than the required adoption of Accounting Standards Codification 842 – Leases (ASC 842), the Company has continued to follow the accounting policies set forth in the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. In the opinion of management, the interim consolidated financial information provided herein reflects all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the interim periods. The consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 are not indicative of the results expected for other interim periods or the full year. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2018 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not

(Continued)

include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

During the second quarter ended June 30, 2019, the Company identified a prior-period error that overstated its earnings from a nonconsolidated equity affiliate. The overstatement was not deemed material to the current period or any previously reported periods and was therefore corrected as an out-of-period expense of $15.7 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2019. The pretax noncash adjustment is recorded in other nonoperating expenses, consistent with the recurring classification of equity earnings from the nonconsolidated affiliate.

New Accounting Pronouncement

Leases

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 842, which requires virtually all leases, excluding mineral interest leases, to be recorded as right-of-use (ROU) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and provides guidance on the recognition of lease expense and income. ASC 842 requires the modified retrospective transition approach, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. It further states that an entity may use either 1) its effective date or 2) the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements as its date of initial application. The Company used the effective date as the date of initial application. As such, financial information and disclosures required under ASC 842 will not be provided for dates and periods prior to January 1, 2019.

The lease standard provides a number of practical expedients for transition and policy elections for ongoing accounting. The Company elected the “package of practical expedients”, which permits the Company to not reassess its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company elected the practical expedients pertaining to the use of hindsight and to land easements. Applying the hindsight practical expedient resulted in longer lease terms for many leases. The standard provides policy election options for recognition exemption for short-term leases and separation of lease and non-lease components. The Company elected the short-term lease recognition exemption and elected not to separate lease and non-lease components for all underlying asset classes, with the exceptions of railcars and fleet vehicle leases. The Company determines lease and non-lease components based on observable information, including rates provided by the lessor.

The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the recognition of ROU assets and lease liabilities of $502.5 million and $501.6 million, respectively, for operating leases and $10.9 million and $12.1 million, respectively, for finance leases. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated statement of earnings or consolidated statement of cash flows.

Subsequent to the date of adoption, the Company determines if a contract is or contains a lease at inception of the agreement. Operating and finance leases are recognized as ROU assets and the related obligations are recognized as current or noncurrent liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. Leases with an initial lease term of one year or less are not recorded on the balance sheet.

ROU assets, which represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset, and lease liabilities, which represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease, are recognized based on the present value of the future lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. The ROU asset also includes any lease payments made at or before commencement date and any initial direct costs incurred and excludes lease incentives. Certain of the Company’s leases contain renewal and/or termination options. The Company recognizes renewal or termination options as part of its ROU assets and lease liabilities when the Company has the unilateral right to renew or terminate and it is reasonably certain these options will be exercised. The Company determines the present value of lease payments based on the implicit rate, which may be explicitly stated in the lease if available or may be the

Company’s estimated collateralized incremental borrowing rate based on the term of the lease. For operating leases, lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Some leases require the Company pay non-lease components, which may include taxes, maintenance, insurance and certain other expenses applicable to the leased property, and are primarily considered variable costs. The Company generally accounts for lease and non-lease components as a single amount. However, for railcars and fleet vehicle leases, the Company separately accounts for the lease and non-lease components.

Pending Accounting Pronouncement

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (ASU 2016-13), which is effective and will be adopted January 1, 2020. ASU 2016-13 includes a current expected credit loss (CECL) model that requires an entity to estimate credit losses expected over the life of an exposure or pool of exposures based on historical information, current information and reasonable and supportable forecasts at the time the asset is recognized and is remeasured at each reporting period. ASU 2016-13 primarily relates to the Company’s receivables, but the scope also includes retainage and contract assets related to its paving business. The Company has evaluated ASU 2016-13 and the adoption will not have a material impact on its financial position or statement of earnings and comprehensive earnings.

Earnings per Common Share

The numerator for basic and diluted earnings per common share is net earnings attributable to Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. reduced by dividends and undistributed earnings attributable to certain of the Company’s stock-based compensation. If there is a net loss, no amount of the undistributed loss is attributed to unvested participating securities. The denominator for basic earnings per common share is the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share are computed assuming that the weighted-average number of common shares is increased by the conversion, using the treasury stock method, of awards to be issued to employees and nonemployee members of the Company’s Board of Directors under certain stock-based compensation arrangements if the conversion is dilutive. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the diluted per-share computations reflect the number of common shares outstanding to include the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive common shares had been issued.

2.	Revenue Recognition

Total revenues include sales of products and services to customers, net of any discounts or allowances, and freight revenues. Product revenues are recognized when control of the promised good is transferred to the customer, typically when finished products are shipped. Intersegment and interproduct revenues are eliminated in consolidation. Service revenues are derived from the paving business and recognized using the percentage-of-completion method under the revenue-cost approach. Freight revenues reflect delivery arranged by the Company using a third party on behalf of the customer and are recognized consistently with the timing of the product revenues.

Performance Obligations. Performance obligations are contractual promises to transfer or provide a distinct good or service for a stated price. The Company’s product sales agreements are single-performance obligations that are satisfied at a point in time. Performance obligations within paving service agreements are satisfied over time, primarily ranging from one day to 20 months. For product revenues and freight revenues, customer payment terms are generally 30 days from invoice date. Customer payments for the paving operations are based on a contractual billing schedule and are due 30 days from invoice date.

Future revenues from unsatisfied performance obligations at September 30, 2019 and 2018 were $133.9 million and $111.7 million, respectively, where the remaining periods to complete these obligations ranged from one month to 15 months and one month to 27 months, respectively.

Service revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were $191.8 million and $162.9 million, respectively.

Contract Balances. Costs in excess of billings relate to the conditional right to consideration for completed contractual performance and are contract assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Costs in excess of billings are reclassified to accounts receivable when the right to consideration becomes unconditional. Billings in excess of costs relate to customers invoiced in advance of contractual performance and are contract liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The following table presents information about the Company’s contract balances:

Costs in excess of billings	$	7,725	$	1,975
Billings in excess of costs	$	8,021	$	6,743

Revenues recognized from the beginning balance of contract liabilities for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were $8.0 million and $6.2 million, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 were $6.5 million and $6.8 million, respectively.

Retainage, which primarily relates to the paving services, represents amounts that have been billed to customers but payment withheld until final acceptance by the customer of the performance obligation. Included in other current assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, retainage was $11.0 million and $7.5 million at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Warranties. The Company’s construction contracts generally contain warranty provisions typically for a period of nine months to one year after project completion and cover materials, design or workmanship defects. Historically, the Company has not experienced material costs for warranties. The ready mixed concrete product line carries longer warranty periods, for which the Company has accrued an estimate of warranty cost based on experience with the type of work and any known risks relative to the project. In total, warranty costs were not material to the Company’s consolidated results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 and September 30, 2018.

Policy Elections. When the Company arranges third-party freight to deliver products to customers, the Company has elected the delivery to be a fulfillment activity rather than a separate performance obligation. Further, the Company acts as a principal in the delivery arrangements and, as required by the accounting standard, the related revenues and costs are presented gross and are included in the consolidated statements of earnings.

The Company, through a wholly-owned special-purpose subsidiary, has a $400 million trade receivable securitization facility (the Trade Receivable Facility). The Trade Receivable Facility, with SunTrust Bank, Regions Bank, PNC Bank, N.A., The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, LTD. (New York Branch), and certain other lenders that may become a party to the facility from time to time, is backed by eligible trade receivables, as defined, and is limited to the lesser of the facility limit or the borrowing base, as defined. These receivables are originated by the Company and then sold to the wholly-owned special-purpose subsidiary by the Company. The Company continues to be responsible for the servicing and administration of the receivables purchased by the wholly-owned special-purpose subsidiary. Borrowings under the Trade Receivable Facility bear interest at a rate equal to one-month London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, plus 0.725%, subject to change in the event that this rate no longer reflects the lender’s cost of lending. The Trade Receivable Facility contains a cross-default provision to the Company’s other debt agreements. On September 24, 2019, the Company extended the maturity of the Trade Receivable Facility to September 23, 2020.

The Company has a $700 million five-year senior unsecured revolving facility (the Revolving Facility), which expires on December 5, 2023, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Branch Banking and Trust Company (BB&T), Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc., SunTrust Bank and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Co-Syndication Agents, and the lenders party thereto. Borrowings under the Revolving Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at rates based upon LIBOR or a base rate, plus, for each rate, a margin determined in accordance with a ratings-based pricing grid. There were no borrowings outstanding of the Revolving Facility at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The Revolving Facility requires the Company’s ratio of consolidated debt-to-consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), as defined by the Revolving Facility, for the trailing-twelve months (the Ratio) to not exceed 3.50x as of the end of any fiscal quarter, provided that the Company may exclude from the Ratio debt incurred in connection with certain acquisitions during such quarter or the three preceding quarters so long as the Ratio calculated without such exclusion does not exceed 3.75x. Additionally, if no amounts are outstanding under both the Revolving Facility and the Trade Receivable Facility, consolidated debt, including debt for which the Company is a co-borrower, may be reduced by the Company’s unrestricted cash and cash equivalents in excess of $50 million, such reduction not to exceed $200 million, for purposes of the covenant calculation. The Company was in compliance with this Ratio at September 30, 2019.

Available borrowings under the Revolving Facility are reduced by any outstanding letters of credit issued by the Company under the Revolving Facility. The Company had $2.3 million of outstanding letters of credit issued under the Revolving Facility at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

The Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2019 and Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2020 are classified as noncurrent long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 as the Company has the intent and ability to refinance the notes on a long-term basis.

5.	Financial Instruments

The Company’s financial instruments include cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, accounts payable, publicly-registered long-term notes, debentures and other long-term debt.

Cash equivalents are placed primarily in money market funds, money market demand deposit accounts and Eurodollar time deposits. The Company’s cash equivalents have original maturities of less than three months. Due to the short maturity of these investments, they are carried on the consolidated balance sheets at cost, which approximates fair value.

Accounts receivable are due from a large number of customers, primarily in the construction industry, and are dispersed across wide geographic and economic regions. No single customer accounted for 10% or more of consolidated total revenues. The estimated fair values of accounts receivable approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term nature of the receivables.

(UNAUDITED) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Continued)

Notes receivable are not publicly traded. Management estimates that the fair value of notes receivable approximates the carrying amount due to the short-term nature of the receivables.

Accounts payable represent amounts owed to suppliers and vendors. The estimated fair value of accounts payable approximates its carrying amount due to the short-term nature of the payables.

The carrying values and fair values of the Company’s long-term debt were $2.92 billion and $3.07 billion, respectively, at September 30, 2019 and $3.12 billion and $3.01 billion, respectively, at December 31, 2018. The estimated fair value of the publicly-registered long-term notes was estimated based on Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy using quoted market prices. The estimated fair value of other borrowings approximate their carrying amounts as the interest rates reset periodically.

6.	Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate reflects the effect of federal and state income taxes on earnings and the impact of differences in book and tax accounting arising from the permanent tax benefits associated with the statutory depletion deduction for mineral reserves. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the lower effective income tax rate of 18.8% is primarily attributable to a $13.2 million discrete benefit from a change in the tax status of a subsidiary from a partnership to a corporation.

The Company records interest accrued in relation to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. Penalties, if incurred, are recorded as operating expenses in the consolidated statements of earnings and comprehensive earnings.

7.	Pension and Postretirement Benefits

The estimated components of the recorded net periodic benefit cost (credit) for pension and postretirement benefits are as follows:

	Pension						Postretirement Benefits

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Third Quarter Ended September 30, 2019

(Continued)

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Building Materials business is significantly affected by weather patterns and seasonal changes. Production and shipment levels for aggregates, cement, ready mixed concrete and asphalt and paving materials correlate with general construction activity levels, most of which occur in the spring, summer and fall. Thus, production and shipment levels vary by quarter. Operations concentrated in the northern and midwestern United States generally experience more severe winter weather conditions than operations in the southeast and southwest. Excessive rainfall, and conversely excessive drought, can also jeopardize production, shipments and profitability in all markets served by the Company. Due to the potentially significant impact of weather on the Company’s operations, current period and year-to-date results are not indicative of expected performance for other interim periods or the full year.

Earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization, the earnings/loss from nonconsolidated equity affiliates, Bluegrass acquisition-related expenses, net, the impact of selling acquired inventory after its markup to fair value as part of acquisition accounting and the asset and portfolio rationalization charge (Adjusted EBITDA) is an indicator used by the Company and investors to evaluate the Company’s operating performance from period to period. Adjusted EBITDA is not defined by generally accepted accounting principles and, as such, should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings, operating earnings or operating cash flow. However, the Company’s management believes that Adjusted EBITDA may provide additional information with respect to the Company’s performance or ability to meet its future debt service, capital expenditures or working capital requirements. Because Adjusted EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net earnings and may vary among companies, Adjusted EBITDA as presented by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

A reconciliation of net earnings attributable to Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. to consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:

The following tables present total revenues, gross profit (loss), selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses and earnings (loss) from operations data for the Company and its reportable segments by product line for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. In each case, the data is stated as a percentage of revenues of the Company or the relevant segment or product line, as the case may be. The aggregates products gross profit rollforward is presented following the gross profit table. In 2019, the Company reclassified its two cold mix asphalt plants from the asphalt and paving product line to the aggregates product line as they display characteristics more similar to aggregates than asphalt products. These operations did not represent a material amount of product revenues or gross profit. Prior-year information has been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the Company’s current reportable product lines.

Aggregates Product Line End-Use Markets

Aggregates shipments to the infrastructure market increased 7%. As expected, transportation-related projects accelerated during the quarter, supported by funding provided by the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act) and numerous state and local transportation initiatives and continued reconstruction efforts following flooding in the Midwest. For the quarter, the infrastructure market represented 38% of aggregates shipments, which is below the Company’s most recent ten-year average of 46%.

Aggregates shipments to the nonresidential market increased 19%, driven by gains in commercial and heavy industrial construction activity. The Company continued to benefit from distribution center, warehouse, data center and wind

energy projects in key geographies, including Texas, the Carolinas, Iowa and Maryland, as well as the early phases of several large energy-sector projects along the Gulf Coast. The nonresidential market represented 34% of third-quarter aggregates shipments.

Aggregates shipments to the residential market increased 16%, driven by continued homebuilding activity in states such as Texas, Colorado, the Carolinas, Georgia and Florida. The residential construction outlook across the Company’s geographic footprint remains positive for both single- and multi-family housing, driven by favorable demographics, job growth, land availability, low interest rates and efficient permitting. On a national level, housing starts remain below the 50-year annual average of 1.5 million despite notable population gains. The residential market accounted for 22% of third-quarter aggregates shipments.

The ChemRock/Rail market accounted for the remaining 6% of third-quarter aggregates shipments. Volumes to this end use increased 4%, driven by improved ballast shipments as the western Class 1 railroads continued to address repairs from the Midwest flooding earlier in the year.

Building Materials Business Product Lines

Aggregates product gross margin expanded 480 basis points to 35.1%, reflecting pricing gains, improved operating leverage from increased shipment and production levels and the absence of the $8.3 million negative impact of selling acquired inventory after its markup to fair value as part of acquisition accounting incurred in 2018 as part of the Company’s purchase of Bluegrass Materials.

Third-quarter cement shipments increased 20.6%, driven by strong underlying Texas demand and weather-deferred projects from second-quarter 2019. Unfavorable product mix constrained pricing growth to 1.6%. Production efficiencies from increased shipment and production levels, coupled with lower maintenance costs, contributed to the 750-basis-point expansion in cement product gross margin to 40.6%.

Ready mixed concrete shipments increased 9.0% and benefitted from healthy demand environments in Texas and Colorado and weather-impacted carryover projects. Ready mixed concrete selling prices declined 2.2%, reflecting unfavorable product mix. Gross margin improvement in ready mixed concrete was due to increased shipments and production efficiencies. Asphalt volume increased 34.1% attributable to favorable weather enabling commencement of delayed residential construction. Asphalt prices increased 3.3%.

Magnesia Specialties Business

Magnesia Specialties product revenues decreased 13.2% to $59.3 million, compared with $68.4 million, as international chemicals and domestic lime customers rationalized inventory levels. Product gross profit was $24.0 million compared with $26.8 million. Product gross margin improved 120 basis points to 40.4% due to lower costs for contract services and supplies and enhanced cost control measures. Earnings from operations were $20.1 million compared with $23.3 million.

Consolidated Operating Results

Consolidated SG&A was 5.5% of total revenues compared with 5.6% in the prior-year quarter. The dollar increase in expense is driven by higher incentive compensation expense, reflecting the Company’s improved operating results. Earnings from operations for the quarter were $345.3 million in 2019 compared with $240.7 million in 2018.

Among other items, other operating income and expenses, net, includes gains and losses on the sale of assets; recoveries and writeoffs related to customer accounts receivable; rental, royalty and services income; accretion expense, depreciation expense and gains and losses related to asset retirement obligations. For the third quarter, consolidated

other operating income and expenses, net, was income of $2.9 million in 2019 and expense of $3.8 million in 2018. The 2018 amount reflects $7.1 million of asset and portfolio rationalization charges which primarily consists of asset impairment charges and severance costs in the Company’s Southwest ready mixed concrete operations, reported in the West Group reportable segment.

Other nonoperating income and expenses, net, includes interest income; pension and postretirement benefit cost, excluding service cost; foreign currency transaction gains and losses; equity in earnings or losses of nonconsolidated affiliates and other miscellaneous income. For the third quarter, other nonoperating income, net, was income of $2.0 million and $4.2 million in 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Significant items for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 (unless noted, all comparisons are versus the prior-year period):

♦

Consolidated total revenues of $3.64 billion compared with $3.22 billion, an increase of 13%

♦

Building Materials business products and services revenues of $3.20 billion compared with $2.82 billion and Magnesia Specialties products revenue of $198.9 million compared with $201.4 million

♦

Consolidated gross profit of $920.4 million compared with $739.3 million, an increase of 25%

♦

Consolidated earnings from operations of $700.4 million compared with $543.7 million, an increase of 29%

The following tables present total revenues, gross profit (loss), SG&A expenses and earnings (loss) from operations data for the Company and its reportable segments by product line for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018. In each case, the data is stated as a percentage of revenues of the Company or the relevant segment or product line, as the case may be. The aggregates products gross profit rollforward is presented following the gross profit table. In 2019, the Company reclassified its two cold mix asphalt plants to the aggregates product line as they display characteristics more similar to aggregates than asphalt products. These operations were not material to product revenues or gross profit. Prior-year information has been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the Company’s current reportable product lines.

Aggregates Product Line End-Use Markets

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, aggregates shipments to the infrastructure market increased 6%, as improved weather, particularly along the eastern seaboard, allowed contractors to advance transportation-related projects. Funding provided by the FAST Act, combined with numerous state and local transportation initiatives, has resulted in an acceleration in lettings and contract awards in key states, including Texas, Colorado, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Maryland and Iowa. Additionally, the Midwest Division benefitted from shipments related to emergency flood repairs. Year-to-date infrastructure market represented 36% of aggregates shipments.

Aggregates shipments to the nonresidential end-use market increased 28%, driven by growth in the commercial and heavy industrial markets. Notably, the increase reflects robust distribution center, warehouse, data center, wind turbine and energy-sector projects in key geographies, including Texas, the Carolinas, Georgia and Iowa. The nonresidential market represented 36% of the first nine months of aggregates shipments.

Aggregates shipments to the residential market increased 13%, driven by weather-deferred homebuilding activity in key states where the Company operates, namely Texas, Colorado, the Carolinas, Iowa and Maryland. The residential market accounted for 22% of aggregates shipments for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

The ChemRock/Rail market accounted for the remaining 6% of aggregates shipments. Volumes to this sector increased 4%, driven by improved ballast shipments.

Building Materials Business Product Lines

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, aggregates shipments increased 14.2%, reflecting robust underlying demand as improved weather in key states enabled contractors to advance weather-deferred projects. Average selling price increased 3.9%. Product gross margin improvement is reflective of better operating leverage from increased shipments and production levels, pricing gains and the absence of the $18.5 million negative impact of selling acquired inventory after its markup to fair value as part of acquisition accounting that occurred in 2018.

Cement shipments increased 6.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, despite unfavorable weather to start the construction season in second quarter 2019. The increase in shipments for the nine months ended reflects healthy Texas demand and favorable weather during the third quarter allowing progress on delayed construction projects. Cement pricing improved 3.3%. Cement product gross margin declined 90 basis points, attributable to higher transportation and energy costs.

Ready mixed concrete shipments decreased 4% despite growing customer backlogs as unfavorable weather conditions in Texas and Colorado hindered construction activity in these states during the first half of the year. Ready mixed concrete pricing improved 0.4%. Ready mixed concrete product gross margin was relatively flat compared with the prior-year

period. Asphalt shipments increased 11.2% notwithstanding the unfavorable weather conditions earlier in the year as strong bidding activity continued. Asphalt and paving gross margin declined 130 basis points to 17.1%, attributable to a 26% increase in raw material costs, notably liquid asphalt.

Magnesia Specialties Business

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, Magnesia Specialties reported product revenues of $198.9 million, a decrease of 1.2%, compared with $201.4 million. Product gross profit was $79.8 million compared with $76.8 million. Product gross margin improved 200 basis points to 40.1%. Earnings from operations were $68.0 million compared with $65.9 million.

Consolidated Operating Results

For the nine months ended September 30, consolidated SG&A was 6.3% of total revenues in 2019 compared with 6.5% in 2018. Earnings from operations for the nine months ended September 30 were $700.4 million in 2019 compared with $543.7 million in 2018.

For the nine months ended September 30, consolidated other operating income and expenses, net, was income of $9.1 million and $27.0 million in 2019 and 2018, respectively. The 2019 amount reflects the reversal of $6.9 million of accruals for sales tax and unclaimed property contingencies and higher gains on the sales of assets. The 2018 amount reflects nonrecurring gains on the sale of surplus land of $16.9 million and net gain on litigation and related settlements of $7.7 million, partially offset by $7.1 million in asset and portfolio rationalization charge which primarily consists of asset impairment charges and severance costs in the Company’s Southwest ready mixed concrete operations, reported in the West Group reportable segment.

For the nine months ended September 30, other nonoperating income and expenses, net, was an expense of $9.7 million in 2019 and income of $19.9 million in 2018. The expense in 2019 is attributable to a $15.7 million ($12.0 million net of tax) out-of-period correction of a Company-identified overstatement of the investment balance for a nonconsolidated equity affiliate. The 2018 income reflects interest income of $6.8 million due to cash on hand prior to the closing of the Bluegrass acquisition and approximately $10 million of income from nonconsolidated subsidiaries.

Income Tax Benefit

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the effective income tax rate includes a $13.2 million discrete benefit from a change in the tax status of a subsidiary from a partnership to a corporation.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

For the nine months ended September 30, cash provided by operating activities was $649.8 million in 2019 compared with $441.5 million in 2018, driven by growth in earnings before noncash expenses and lower contributions to the Company’s pension plan, partially offset by higher working capital related to increased product revenues. Operating cash flow is

primarily derived from consolidated net earnings before deducting depreciation, depletion and amortization, and the impact of changes in working capital. Depreciation, depletion and amortization were as follows:

	(Dollars in Thousands)
Depreciation	$	234,341	$	219,019

Amortization		15,280		13,605
Total	$	276,974	$	253,200

The seasonal nature of construction activity impacts the Company’s quarterly operating cash flow when compared with the full year. Full-year 2018 net cash provided by operating activities was $705.1 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company paid $283.0 million for capital investments. Full-year capital spending is expected to range from $375 million to $400 million.

The Company can repurchase its common stock through open-market purchases pursuant to authority granted by its Board of Directors or through private transactions at such prices and upon such terms as the Chief Executive Officer deems appropriate. The Company repurchased 261,634 shares of common stock during the first nine months of 2019, at an aggregate cost of $57.3 million. At September 30, 2019, 13,886,117 shares of common stock were remaining under the Company’s repurchase authorization. Future share repurchases are at the discretion of management.

The Company has a $700 million five-year senior unsecured revolving facility (the Revolving Facility), which expires on December 5, 2023. The Revolving Facility requires the Company’s ratio of consolidated debt-to-consolidated EBITDA, as defined, for the trailing-twelve-month period (the Ratio) to not exceed 3.50x as of the end of any fiscal quarter, provided that the Company may exclude from the Ratio debt incurred in connection with certain acquisitions during the quarter or the three preceding quarters so long as the Ratio calculated without such exclusion does not exceed 3.75x. Additionally, if there are no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility and the $400 million trade receivable securitization facility (the Trade Receivable Facility) held by the Company’s wholly-owned special-purpose subsidiary, consolidated debt, including debt for which the Company is a co-borrower, may be reduced by the Company’s unrestricted cash and cash equivalents in excess of $50 million, such reduction not to exceed $200 million, for purposes of the covenant calculation.

The Ratio is calculated as debt, including debt for which the Company is a co-borrower, divided by consolidated EBITDA, as defined by the Company’s Revolving Facility, for the trailing-twelve months. Consolidated EBITDA is generally defined as earnings before interest expense, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization expense. Additionally, stock-based compensation expense is added back and interest income is deducted in the calculation of consolidated EBITDA. During periods that include an acquisition, pre-acquisition adjusted EBITDA of the acquired company is added to consolidated EBITDA as if the acquisition occurred on the first day of the calculation period. Certain other nonrecurring items, if they occur, can affect the calculation of consolidated EBITDA.

At September 30, 2019, the Company’s ratio of consolidated debt-to-consolidated EBITDA, as defined by the Company’s Revolving Facility, for the trailing-twelve months was 2.32 times and was calculated as follows:

	October 1, 2018 to
	September 30, 2019
	(Dollars in Thousands)
Earnings from continuing operations attributable to Martin Marietta	$	575,278
Add back:
Income tax expense		132,586
Interest expense		132,223
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense and noncash nonconsolidated equity affiliate adjustment		378,205
Stock-based compensation expense		34,583
Acquisition-related expenses, net		664
Noncash portion of asset and portfolio rationalization charge		11,725

Deduct:
Interest income		(511	)
Consolidated EBITDA, as defined by the Company’s Revolving Facility	$	1,264,753
Consolidated net debt, as defined and including debt for which the Company is a co-borrower, at September 30, 2019	$	2,935,066
Consolidated debt-to-consolidated EBITDA, as defined by the Company’s Revolving Facility, at September 30, 2019 for the trailing-twelve months EBITDA	2.32 times

The Trade Receivable Facility contains a cross-default provision to the Company’s other debt agreements. In the event of a default on the Ratio, the lenders can terminate the Revolving Facility and Trade Receivable Facility and declare any outstanding balances as immediately due. Outstanding amounts on the Trade Receivable Facility have been classified as a current liability on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

Cash on hand, along with the Company’s projected internal cash flows and availability of financing resources, including its access to debt and equity capital markets, is expected to continue to be sufficient to provide the capital resources necessary to support anticipated operating needs, cover debt service requirements, address near-term debt maturities, meet capital expenditures and discretionary investment needs, fund certain acquisition opportunities that may arise, allow the repurchase of shares of the Company’s common stock and allow for payment of dividends for the foreseeable future. Any future significant strategic acquisition for cash would likely require an appropriate balance of newly-issued equity with debt in order to maintain a composite investment-grade credit rating. At September 30, 2019, the Company had $907.7 million of unused borrowing capacity under its Revolving Facility and Trade Receivable Facility, subject to complying with the related leverage covenant. The Revolving Facility expires on December 5, 2023. On September 24, 2019, the Company extended the maturity of its Trade Receivable Facility to September 23, 2020. The Company has $300 million of floating rate senior notes due in December 2019 and $300 million of floating rate senior notes due in May 2020. Both notes are classified as long-term debt on the Company’s September 30, 2019 balance sheet as the Company has the intent and ability to refinance the notes on a long-term basis.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The Company’s operations are highly dependent upon the interest rate-sensitive construction and steelmaking industries. Consequently, these marketplaces could experience lower levels of economic activity in an environment of rising interest rates or escalating costs.

Management has considered the current economic environment and its potential impact to the Company’s business. Demand for aggregates products, particularly in the infrastructure construction market, is affected by federal and state budget and deficit issues. Further, delays or cancellations of capital projects in the nonresidential and residential construction markets could occur if companies and consumers are unable to obtain financing for construction projects or if consumer confidence continues to be eroded by economic uncertainty.

Demand in the residential construction market is affected by interest rates. The Federal Reserve lowered interest rates during the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The federal funds rate at September 30, 2019 was 1.9%. The residential construction market accounted for 22% of the Company’s aggregates shipments in 2018.

Aside from these inherent risks from within its operations, the Company’s earnings are also affected by changes in short-term interest rates. However, rising interest rates are not necessarily predictive of weaker operating results. Historically, the Company’s profitability increased during periods of rising interest rates. In essence, the Company’s underlying business generally serves as a natural hedge to rising interest rates.

Variable-Rate Borrowing Facilities. At September 30, 2019, the Company had a $700 million Revolving Facility and a $400 million Trade Receivable Facility. The Company also has $600 million variable-rate senior notes. Borrowings under these facilities bear interest at a variable interest rate. A hypothetical 100-basis-point increase in interest rates on borrowings of $790 million, which was the collective outstanding balance at September 30, 2019, would increase interest expense by $7.9 million on an annual basis.

Pension Expense. The Company’s results of operations are affected by its pension expense. Assumptions that affect pension expense include the discount rate and, for the qualified defined benefit pension plan only, the expected long-term rate of return on assets. Therefore, the Company has interest rate risk associated with these factors. The impact of hypothetical changes in these assumptions on the Company’s annual pension expense is discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.

Energy Costs. Energy costs, including diesel fuel, natural gas, coal and liquid asphalt, represent significant production costs of the Company. The cement operations and Magnesia Specialties business have fixed price agreements covering 100% of its 2019 coal requirements. Energy costs for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 increased approximately 0.7% over the prior-year period. A hypothetical 0.7% change in the Company’s energy prices for the full year 2019 as compared with 2018, assuming constant volumes, would change full year 2019 energy expense by $2.1 million.

Commodity Risk. Cement is a commodity and competition is based principally on price, which is highly sensitive to changes in supply and demand. Prices are often subject to material changes in response to relatively minor fluctuations in supply and demand, general economic conditions and other market conditions beyond the Company’s control. Increases in the production capacity of industry participants or increases in cement imports tend to create an oversupply of such products leading to an imbalance between supply and demand, which can have a negative impact on product prices. There can be no assurance that prices for products sold will not decline in the future or that such declines will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Assuming total revenues for cement for full-year 2019 of $420 million to $450 million, a hypothetical 10% change in sales price would impact total revenues by $42.0 million to $45.0 million.
