AI Summary

United States Lime & Minerals Inc. reported a 4.1% increase in third-quarter revenue to $106.2 million, driven by higher selling prices and sales volumes, particularly from steel customers. However, net income saw a slight decrease of 1.9% to $38.0 million ($1.32 per diluted share) compared to the prior year's third quarter.
