The $33.3 million, net of tax, other comprehensive loss before reclassifications in the Pension and Postretirement Benefit Plans for the three months ended March 31, 2022 is driven by the remeasurement of the funded status of the Company’s qualified pension plan, required as a result of the plan amendment that provided an enhanced benefit for eligible hourly employees.

Earnings per Common Share

The numerator for basic and diluted earnings per common share is net earnings attributable to Martin Marietta 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 months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, 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.

Restricted Cash

At December 31, 2021, the Company had restricted cash of $0.5 million, which was invested in an account designated for the purchase of like-kind exchange replacement assets under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code and related IRS procedures (Section 1031). The Company was restricted from utilizing the cash for purposes other than the purchase of the qualified assets for a designated period from receipt of the proceeds from the sale of the exchanged property. There was no restricted cash at March 31, 2022.

In connection with Accounting Standards Update 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), the statement of cash flows reflects cash flow changes and balances for cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash on an aggregated basis.

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 are recognized using the percentage-of-completion method

Page 10 of 41


MARTIN MARIETTA MATERIALS, INC. AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES

For the Quarter Ended March 31, 2022

(UNAUDITED) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Continued)

 

under the cost-to-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 two years. 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 March 31, 2022 and 2021 were $213.9 million and $172.8 million, respectively, where the remaining periods to complete these obligations ranged from one month to 25 months and one month to 19 months, respectively.  

Revenue by Category. The following table presents the Company’s total revenues by category for each reportable segment.

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.

Revenues recognized from the beginning balance of contract liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 were $3.5 million and $4.9 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 $5.5 million and $10.5 million at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

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.

Business Combinations and Discontinued Operations

Business Combinations

In October 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of Lehigh Hanson, Inc.’s West Region business (Lehigh West Region) for $2.26 billion. The acquisition was primarily financed using proceeds from the issuance of publicly traded debt. These operations provided a new upstream, materials-led growth platform across several of the nation’s largest and fastest-growing megaregions in California and Arizona. The results from the acquired business are included in the Company’s West Group.

The Company determined fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Although the initial accounting for the business combination has been recorded, these amounts are subject to change during the measurement period, which extends no longer than one year from the consummation date based on additional reviews, such as asset verification. Therefore, the measurement period remains open as of March 31, 2022. Specific accounts subject to ongoing purchase accounting adjustments included, but are not limited to, property, plant and equipment; lease assets and liabilities; goodwill; intangible assets; asset retirement obligations; and other liabilities. The goodwill generated by the transaction is deductible for income tax purposes.

In July 2021, the Company acquired assets of Southern Crushed Concrete (SCC) in the Houston area, one of the country’s largest addressable aggregates markets. SCC was a leading producer of recycled concrete, which is principally used as a base aggregates product in infrastructure, commercial and residential construction applications. Although the initial accounting for the business combination has been recorded, the fair values of these amounts are subject to change during the measurement period, which remains open as of March 31, 2022. The goodwill generated by the transaction is deductible for income tax purposes. The results from the acquired business are included in the Company’s West Group, but are immaterial for pro-forma financial statement disclosures.

In April 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of Tiller Corporation (Tiller), a leading aggregates and hot mix asphalt supplier in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area, which is one of the largest and fastest-growing midwestern metropolitan areas. The Tiller acquisition complemented the Company’s existing product offerings in the surrounding areas.  The Company has recorded fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which are subject to asset verification and a normal post-closing working capital adjustment.  Although the initial accounting for the business combination has been recorded, the fair values of these amounts are subject to change during the measurement period, which remains open as of March 31, 2022. The goodwill generated by the transaction is deductible for income tax purposes. The results from the acquired business are included in the Company’s East Group, but are immaterial for pro-forma financial statement disclosures.

Discontinued Operations

Discontinued operations include the cement and California ready-mixed concrete businesses acquired as part of the Lehigh West Region acquisition.

Total cash used for operating and investing activities for the discontinued operations was $14.0 million, including $8.6 million in capital expenditures, for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. Non-cash items related to operating and investing activities for the discontinued operations were immaterial for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

Assets Held for Sale. On March 1, 2022, the Company announced a definitive agreement to sell the Redding, California cement plant, related cement distribution terminals and 14 California ready mix operations for $250 million in cash. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2022, subject to customary regulatory  approvals and closing conditions. The Company did not record any amortization or depreciation expense related to these businesses for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, as these are classified as assets held for sale.

During the quarter, the Company reached agreement with one of the nation’s largest privately-owned concrete producers to divest the Colorado and Central Texas ready mix concrete operations, which was completed on April 1, 2022. This opportunity optimized the Company’s aggregates-led portfolio and improved its ability to generate generally more attractive margins over the long term by reducing both business cyclicality and exposure to raw material cost inflation.

The Company, through a wholly-owned special-purpose subsidiary, has a $400 million trade receivable securitization facility (the Trade Receivable Facility). On September 22, 2021 the Company extended the maturity to September 21, 2022. The Trade Receivable Facility, with Truist Bank, Regions Bank, PNC Bank, N.A., MUFG Bank, 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 by the Company to the wholly-owned special-purpose subsidiary.  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 asset-backed commercial paper costs of conduit lenders plus 0.85% for borrowings funded by conduit lenders and one-month London Inter-bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 1.00%, subject to change in the event that this rate no longer reflects the lender’s cost of lending, for borrowings funded by all other lenders.  The Trade Receivable Facility contains a cross-default provision to the Company’s other debt agreements.  Subject to certain conditions, including lenders providing the requisite commitments, the Trade Receivable Facility may be increased to a borrowing base not to exceed $500 million. There were no borrowings outstanding under the Trade Receivable Facility at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

The Company has a $800 million five-year senior unsecured revolving facility (the Revolving Facility) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc., PNC Bank, Truist Bank and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Syndication Agents, and the lenders party thereto (the Credit Agreement).  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 under the Credit Agreement at March 31, 2022 or December 31, 2021. The Credit Agreement requires the Company’s ratio of consolidated net debt-to-consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion 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 4.00x.  Additionally, if there are no amounts outstanding under both the Revolving Facility and the Trade Receivable Facility, consolidated debt, including debt for which the Company is a co-borrower (see Note 10), may be reduced in an amount equal to the lesser of $500 million or the sum of the Company’s unrestricted cash and temporary investments, for purposes of the covenant calculation.  The Company was in compliance with this covenant at March 31, 2022.

The Revolving Facility expires on December 21, 2026, with any outstanding principal amounts, together with interest accrued thereon, due in full on that date. 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 $2.6 million of outstanding letters of credit issued under the Revolving Facility at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

7.

Financial Instruments

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

Temporary cash investments 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.

Restricted cash is held in a trust account with a third-party intermediary. Due to the short-term nature of this account, the fair value of restricted cash approximates its carrying value.

For the Quarter Ended March 31, 2022

(UNAUDITED) NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Continued)

 

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 accounts receivable in the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. The estimated fair values of accounts receivable approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term nature of the accounts.

Notes receivable are primarily promissory notes with customers and are not publicly traded.  Management estimates that the fair value of notes receivable approximates its carrying amount.

Accounts payable represent amounts owed to suppliers and vendors. The estimated fair value of accounts payable approximates the 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 $5.10 billion and $4.93 billion, respectively, at March 31, 2022 and $5.10 billion and $5.45 billion, respectively, at December 31, 2021. The estimated fair value of the publicly-registered long-term notes was estimated using quoted market prices. The estimated fair values of other borrowings approximate their carrying amounts as the interest rates reset periodically.  

8.

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 primarily from the permanent tax benefits associated with the statutory depletion deduction for mineral reserves.  The effective income tax rates for continuing operations were 19.3% and 19.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and March 31, 2021, respectively.

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.

Pension and Postretirement Benefits

During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Company amended its qualified pension plan and provided an enhanced benefit for eligible hourly active participants who retire subsequent to April 30, 2022.  The amendment required a pension remeasurement.  The Company elected the use of a practical expedient to perform the pension remeasurement as of February 28, 2022, the month end closest to the approval of the plan amendment. The discount rate for the remeasurement was 3.75% compared with 3.23% prior to the remeasurement.  The enhanced benefit and remeasurement resulted in higher projected pension expense for the year compared with the initial annual pension expense for the qualified plan.  

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

Commitments and Contingencies

Legal and Administrative Proceedings

The Company is engaged in certain legal and administrative proceedings incidental to its normal business activities, including matters relating to environmental protection. The Company considers various factors in assessing the probable outcome of each matter, including but not limited to the nature of existing legal proceedings and claims, the asserted or possible damages, the jurisdiction and venue of the case and whether it is a jury trial, the progress of the case, existing law and precedent, the opinions or views of legal counsel and other advisers, the Company’s experience in similar cases and the experience of other companies, the facts available to the Company at the time of assessment, and how the Company intends to respond to the proceeding or claim. The Company’s assessment of these factors may change over time as proceedings or claims progress. The Company believes the probability is remote that the outcome of any currently pending legal or administrative proceeding will result in a material loss to the Company as a whole, based on currently available facts.

Borrowing Arrangements with Affiliate

The Company is a co-borrower with an unconsolidated affiliate for a $12.5 million revolving line of credit agreement with Truist Bank, of which $4.5 million was outstanding as of March 31, 2022. The affiliate has agreed to reimburse and indemnify the Company for any payments and expenses the Company may incur from this agreement. The

Company holds a lien on the affiliate’s membership interest in a joint venture as collateral for payment under the revolving line of credit.

In addition, the Company has a $6.0 million interest-only loan receivable, due December 31, 2022, outstanding from this unconsolidated affiliate as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.  The interest rate is one-month LIBOR plus a current spread of 1.63%.

Letters of Credit

In the normal course of business, the Company provides certain third parties with standby letter of credit agreements guaranteeing its payment for certain insurance claims, contract performance and permit requirements.  At March 31, 2022, the Company was contingently liable for $17.2 million in letters of credit, of which $2.6 million were issued under the Company’s Revolving Facility.

11.

Business Segments

The Building Materials business contains two reportable segments: the East Group and the West Group. The Company also has a Magnesia Specialties segment.  The Company’s evaluation of performance and allocation of resources are based primarily on earnings from operations. Consolidated earnings from operations include total revenues less cost of revenues; selling, general and administrative expenses; acquisition and integration expenses; other operating income and expenses, net; and exclude interest expense; other nonoperating income and expenses, net; and income taxes. Corporate loss from operations primarily includes depreciation; expenses for corporate administrative functions; acquisition and integration expenses; and other nonrecurring income and expenses excluded from the Company’s evaluation of business segment performance and resource allocation. All long-term debt and related interest expense are held at Corporate.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

OVERVIEW

Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. (the Company or Martin Marietta) is a natural resource-based building materials company. As of March 31, 2022, the Company supplies aggregates (crushed stone, sand and gravel) through its network of approximately 350 quarries, mines and distribution yards in 28 states, Canada and The Bahamas.  Martin Marietta also provides cement and downstream products and services, namely, ready mixed concrete, asphalt and paving, in vertically-integrated structured markets where the Company has a leading aggregates position. In addition, the Company has two cement plants, cement distribution terminals and ready mixed concrete operations primarily in California that are classified as assets held for sale and reported as discontinued operations as of March 31, 2022. 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 two reportable segments: the East Group and the West Group.

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 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, southwest and west. 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 results are not necessarily indicative of expected performance for other interim periods or the full year.

 

The Company has a Magnesia Specialties business with manufacturing facilities in Manistee, Michigan, and Woodville, Ohio. 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.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company outlined its critical accounting policies in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. There were no changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2022.  

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Earnings from continuing operations before interest; income taxes; depreciation, depletion and amortization; the earnings/loss from nonconsolidated equity affiliates; and acquisition and integration expenses; (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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and, as such, should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings, earnings from operations or cash provided by operating activities. However, the Company’s management believes that Adjusted EBITDA may provide additional information with respect to the Company’s performance and is a measure used by management to evaluate the Company’s performance. 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 with similarly titled measures of other companies.

A reconciliation of net earnings from continuing operations attributable to Martin Marietta to Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:

Mix-adjusted average selling price (mix-adjusted ASP) excludes the impacts of product, geographic and other mix from the current-period average selling price and is a non-GAAP measure.  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 effectiveness of the Company’s pricing increases and believes this information is useful to investors as it provides same-on-same pricing trends.  The following reconciles reported average selling price to mix-adjusted ASP and corresponding variances.

Aggregates End-Use Markets

Organic aggregates shipments to the infrastructure market increased 6.2%, primarily driven by increased highway widening projects in North Carolina, Georgia and Indiana. The infrastructure market accounted for 32% of first-quarter organic aggregates shipments.

Organic aggregates shipments to the nonresidential market were flat, with strong warehousing demand in Ohio, Indiana and Texas offset by a decrease in major projects in North and South Carolina.  The nonresidential market represented 36% of first-quarter organic aggregates shipments.

Organic aggregates shipments to the residential market decreased 2% compared with a strong prior-year quarter, reflecting supply chain issues, increased costs and labor shortages. The residential market accounted for 26% of first-quarter organic aggregates shipments.

The ChemRock/Rail market accounted for the remaining 6% of first-quarter organic aggregates shipments. Volumes to this end use increased 20%, driven by increased aglime shipments in Iowa and increased ballast demand in Texas spurred by long-deferred railroad maintenance projects.

Building Materials Business

First-quarter organic aggregates shipments increased 2.5%, reflecting growing public and private product demand at the onset of construction season, while organic pricing increased 6.5%.  Inclusive of acquired operations, aggregates shipments grew 13.4% compared with prior-year quarter and pricing increased 5.6%. Overall, East Group total shipments increased 1.1%, reflecting increased infrastructure construction activity in the Southeast and Midwest, while pricing increased 5.1%.  West Group total shipments increased 32.7%, driven by robust underlying demand in Texas and shipments from acquired operations that more than offset Colorado weather-related shipment shortfalls. West Group pricing increased 9.0%, or 4.8% on a mix-adjusted basis, benefitting from improving long-haul shipments from higher-priced distribution yards and higher selling prices at acquired operations. Aggregates product gross margin decreased 640 basis points to 14.9%, as year-over-year price increase impacts were more than offset by higher diesel fuel costs of approximately $12 million, increased supplies, repair costs, contract service cost of approximately $20 million, higher internal freight costs of $9 million and the impact of Tiller winter shut down, which did not impact prior year quarter as the operations were acquired April 30, 2021.

Texas cement shipments increased 10.0%, supported by robust product demand and tight supply throughout the Texas Triangle. Cement pricing improved 11.8%, benefitting from the carryover of 2021 mid-year price increases and improving demand for higher-priced specialty oil-well cement products. Product gross margin expanded 630 basis points to 20.3% compared with the prior-year quarter, which was negatively impacted by incremental costs and inefficiencies resulting from the Texas Deep Freeze.

Organic ready mixed concrete shipments declined slightly, driven by timing of project completions and weather-related Colorado shipment declines. Organic pricing grew 8.2% in first quarter 2022 compared with first quarter 2021, following the implementation of annual price increases early in the year. Inclusive of the acquired Arizona operations, ready mixed concrete shipments and pricing increased 14.8% and 7.7%, respectively. Product gross margin declined 100 basis points to 7.3%, driven primarily by higher raw material and diesel costs which more than offset price increases.  Seasonal winter weather conditions in Colorado contributed to a 3.1 percent decrease in organic asphalt shipments. Organic pricing increased 5.8 percent. Including contributions from the acquired West Coast operations, total asphalt shipments and pricing increased 509.1 percent and 27.2 percent, respectively. As anticipated, the Minnesota-based asphalt facilities, which were acquired on April 30, 2021, were closed during the first quarter given the construction season does not begin until late spring. Consistent with the Company’s historical first-quarter trends, the asphalt and paving business posted an overall loss.

Magnesia Specialties Business

Magnesia Specialties first-quarter product revenues increased 8.5% to $70.8 million, driven by robust global demand for magnesia-based chemical products as well as improving domestic steel production in the latter half of the quarter. Product gross profit was $26.8 million compared with $28.4 million. Product gross margin decreased 570 basis points to 37.8% as higher costs for energy, supplies and raw materials more than offset revenue growth. First-quarter earnings from operations were $21.5 million in 2022 compared with $23.5 million in 2021.

Consolidated Operating Results

Consolidated SG&A for first quarter 2022 was 7.9% of total revenues compared with 8.1% in the prior-year quarter, an improvement of 20 basis points. Earnings from operations for the quarter were $59.9 million in 2022 compared with $99.3 million in 2021, the decrease driven by higher costs for energy, supplies, freight and personnel, which more than offset year over year price increases.  

Income Tax Expense

For the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the effective income tax rates for continuing operations were 19.3% and 19.5%, respectively.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 was $169.9 million and $191.9 million, respectively.  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:

The seasonal nature of construction activity impacts the Company’s interim operating cash flow when compared with the full year. Full-year 2021 net cash provided by operating activities was $1.14 billion.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company paid $139.8 million and $110.3 million, respectively, for capital investments.

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 130,551 shares of common stock during the first three months of 2022 at an aggregate cost of $50.0 million.  At March 31, 2022, 13,390,401 shares of common stock can be purchased under the Company’s repurchase authorization.

The Company, through a wholly-owned special-purpose subsidiary, has a $400 million trade receivable securitization facility (the Trade Receivable Facility) that matures on September 21, 2022. The Trade Receivable Facility contains a cross-default provision to the Company’s other debt agreements.

The Company has an $800 million five-year senior unsecured revolving facility (the Revolving Facility), which expires in December 2026. 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 4.00x. Additionally, if there are no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility and the Trade Receivable Facility, consolidated debt, including debt for which the Company is a co-borrower, may be reduced in an amount equal to the lesser of $500.0 million or the sum of the Company’s unrestricted cash and temporary investments, for purposes of the covenant calculation.  The Company was in compliance with the Ratio at March 31, 2022.

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.  There were no amounts outstanding under the Trade Receivable Facility or the Revolving Facility as of March 31, 2022.

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.  At March 31, 2022, the Company had $1,197.4 million of unused borrowing capacity under its Revolving Facility and Trade Receivable Facility, subject to complying with the related leverage covenant.  Historically, the Company has successfully extended the maturity dates of these credit facilities.  Further, as of March 31, 2022, the Company does not have any publicly-traded debt that matures prior to 2023.

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) was signed into law in March 2020 and provided liquidity support for businesses. Through the CARES Act, the Company deferred payment of $27.6 million, representing the 6.2% employer share of Social Security taxes for the period from March 27, 2020 through December 31, 2020.  Half of the deferred obligation was repaid in 2021 and the remaining half is due December 31, 2022.  There will be no interest assessed on amounts deferred.

Investors are cautioned that all statements in this Form 10-Q that relate to the future involve risks and uncertainties, and are based on assumptions that the Company believes in good faith are reasonable but which may be materially different from actual results.  These statements, which are forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, provide the investor with the Company’s expectations or forecasts of future events.  You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate only to historical or current facts.  They may use words such as anticipate, “may,” expect, should, believe, “project,” “intend,” “will,” and other words of similar meaning in connection with future events or future operating or financial performance.  Any or all of management’s forward-looking statements here and in other publications may turn out to be wrong.

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 Form 10-Q (including the outlook) include, but are not limited to: the ability of the Company to face challenges, including those posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and implementation of any such related response plans; fluctuations in COVID-19 cases in the United States and the extent that geography of outbreak primarily matches the regions in which the Company’s Building Materials business principally operates; the resiliency and potential declines of the Company’s various construction end-use markets; the potential negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s ability to continue supplying heavy-side building materials and related services at normal levels or at all in the Company’s key regions; the duration, impact and severity of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company, including the markets in which the Company does business, its suppliers, customers or other business partners as well as the Company’s employees; the economic impact of government responses to the pandemic; the performance of the United States economy, including the impact on the economy of the COVID-19 pandemic and governmental orders restricting activities imposed to prevent further outbreak of COVID-19; shipment declines resulting from economic events beyond the Company’s control; 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 gasoline tax(es) or other revenue related to public construction; the level and timing of federal, state or local transportation or infrastructure or public projects funding, most particularly in Texas, Colorado, California, North Carolina, Georgia, Minnesota, Iowa, Florida, Indiana and Maryland; the impact of governmental orders restricting activities imposed to prevent further outbreak of COVID-19 on travel, potentially reducing state fuel tax revenues used to fund highway projects; the United States Congress’ inability to reach agreement among themselves or with the Administration 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 the commercial component of the nonresidential construction market, notably office and retail space, including a decline resulting from economic distress related to the COVID-19 pandemic; 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, particularly in Texas; increasing residential mortgage interest rates and other factors that could result in a slowdown in residential construction; unfavorable weather conditions, particularly Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico hurricane activity, wildfires, the late start to spring or the early onset of winter and the impact of a drought or excessive rainfall in the markets served by the Company, any of which can significantly affect production schedules, volumes, product and/or geographic mix and profitability; whether the Company’s operations will continue to be treated as “essential” operations under applicable government orders restricting business activities imposed to prevent further outbreak of COVID-19 or, even if so treated, whether site-specific health and safety concerns might otherwise require certain of the Company’s operations to be halted for some period of time; the volatility of fuel costs, particularly diesel fuel, notably related to the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and the impact on the cost, or the availability generally, of other consumables, namely steel, explosives,

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. Demand in the residential and nonresidential construction market, which combined accounted for 62% of aggregates shipments for the three months ended March 31, 2022, is affected by interest rates. During the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Federal Reserve raised the target federal funds rate 25 basis points. Consequently, these marketplaces could experience lower levels of economic activity in an environment of rising interest rates or escalating costs if companies and consumers are unable to obtain financing for construction projects or if consumer confidence is eroded by economic uncertainty.

Demand for aggregates products, particularly in the infrastructure construction market, is affected by federal, state and local budget and deficit issues.

Aside from these inherent risks from within its operations, the Company’s earnings are also affected by changes in short-term interest rates and changes in enacted tax laws.

Variable-Rate Borrowing Facilities. At March 31, 2022, the Company had an $800.0 million Revolving Facility and a $400.0 million Trade Receivable Facility. Borrowings under these facilities bear interest at a variable interest rate. There were no borrowings outstanding on either facility at March 31, 2022. However, any future borrowings under the credit facilities or outstanding variable-rate debt are exposed to interest rate risk.

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, 2021. The Company remeasured its qualified pension plan as of February 28, 2022, to reflect an amendment that increased the pension benefit for qualifying hourly employees.  The discount rate at the remeasurement date was approximately 50 basis points higher compared with the discount rate as of December 31, 2021.  Further, discount rates increased approximately 25 additional basis points in the month of March 2022.  Unless another event requires an interim remeasurement, the Company will next remeasure its pension obligation and funded status as of December 31, 2022.  Changes in the discount rate and pension asset values will impact 2023 pension expense.

Income Tax. Any changes in enacted tax laws, rules or regulatory or judicial interpretations; or any change in the pronouncements relating to accounting for income taxes could materially impact our effective tax rate, tax payments, financial condition and results of operations.

Energy Costs. Energy costs, including diesel fuel, natural gas, electricity, coal and liquid asphalt, represent significant production costs of the Company.  The cement operations and Magnesia Specialties business have fixed price agreements covering a majority of their 2022 coal requirements. Organic energy expense for the three months ended March 31, 2022 increased approximately 52% compared with the prior-year period, related to higher prices for natural gas, diesel, electricity and gasoline in 2022.  Specifically, the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine has exacerbated already increased diesel prices; however, any future energy prices cannot be reliably predicted.  A hypothetical price change of 52% would change organic full-year 2022 energy expense by $158.1 million as compared with 2021, assuming constant volumes.  Further, the full-year 2022 impact on profitability and margins would be greater when considering the energy consumed by operations acquired 2021.

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 full- year 2021 cement product revenues of $494.5 million, a hypothetical 10% change in sales price would impact full-year cement product revenues by $49.5 million.

Cement is a key raw material in the production of ready mixed concrete. The Company may be unable to pass along increases in the costs of cement and raw materials to customers in the form of price increases for the Company’s products. A hypothetical 10% change in cement costs in 2022 compared with 2021, assuming constant volumes, would change the ready mixed concrete product line cost of revenues by $32.3 million. While increases in cement pricing may negatively impact the profitability of the ready mixed concrete operations, the cement business would benefit, although the positive impact may not reflect a direct correlation to the impact on the ready mixed concrete business.

The Company consumes other raw material and supply commodities in its operations, the costs of which have been negatively impacted by high inflation.  The Company periodically implements price increases due to rising costs.  However, there is a lag between announced price increases and the time when they are fully realized.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of March 31, 2022, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and the operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2022. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
