MARTIN MARIETTA MATERIALS INC Q1 FY26 Results

“2026 is off to a strong start, with revenues improving 17% to a new first-quarter record. Organic aggregates shipment growth of 7% meaningfully exceeded expectations, benefiting from an early start to the construction season in the Midwest and Colorado, as well as strong infrastructure and heavy nonresidential demand across our geographic footprint. The quarter's results reflect a 14% improvement in both Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations and Adjusted earnings per diluted share from continuing operations. Importantly, our teams delivered the best first-quarter safety performance in the Company's history, underscoring our unwavering commitment to world-class safety and operational excellence. "As noted, on February 23 we closed our largest aggregates acquisition to date through an Internal Revenue Code Section 1031 asset exchange with Quikrete Holdings, Inc. (QUIKRETE). This milestone enhanced the quality and durability of our earnings profile and provided $450 million of cash to redeploy into M&A opportunities. As such, and consistent with the Company's strategic plan, on April 19, we signed a definitive agreement to acquire New Frontier Materials (NFM). NFM is a leading Midwestern aggregates-led producer with high-quality, strategically located reserves complementing Martin Marietta's existing footprint and long-term growth objectives. "With April's continued strong product demand, the impact of April 1 price increases, and ongoing optimization efforts, we are reaffirming our full-year 2026 Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations guidance of $2.43 billion at the midpoint.” Mr. Nye concluded, "Our increasingly aggregates-focused portfolio, complemented by a differentiated Specialties business with aggregates-like characteristics, positions us to deliver superior performance across a broad range of economic environments while maintaining discipline through periods of macroeconomic volatility. With SOAR 2030 underway, we remain confident in our ability to achieve our 2026 objectives while creating sustainable long-term value for shareholders."
