Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. Summary of significant accounting policies

1.1. Description of business

CRH is the leading provider of building materials critical to modernizing infrastructure. The Company operates in the building materials industry, providing essential materials and products for construction projects across its Americas and International footprint. The Company is a major producer of aggregates, cementitious materials, readymixed concrete, asphalt, precast concrete and outdoor living products and is a provider of paving and construction services, supplying a wide range of customers, including Federal and local authorities, general contractors, and the commercial and residential markets. A summary of significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements follows.

1.2. Basis of presentation and use of estimates

The accompanying unaudited Condensed 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 and in Article 10 of Regulation S-X. 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 2025 Form 10-K. In the opinion of our management, these statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of our results of operations and financial condition for the periods and as of the dates presented. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026 or any future interim period. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2025 has been derived from the audited Consolidated Financial Statements at that date but does not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2025 Form 10-K.

The preparation of the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions about future events. These estimates and the underlying assumptions affect the amounts of assets and liabilities reported, disclosures about contingent assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Such estimates include impairment of long-lived assets, impairment of goodwill, pension and other postretirement benefits, tax matters and litigation, including insurance and environmental compliance costs. These estimates and assumptions are based on management’s judgment.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Changes in accounting estimates may be necessary if there are changes in the circumstances or experiences on which the estimate was based or as a result of new information.

Changes in estimates, including those resulting from changes in the economic environment, are reflected in the period in which the change in estimate occurs.

1.3. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and all highly liquid investments with original maturities at the time of purchase of three months or less. Restricted cash consists of amounts held in escrow designated for exchange of assets under Section 1031 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

1.4. New accounting standards

Refer to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's 2025 Form 10-K for impacts of new accounting standards. There were no material impacts from the adoption of new accounting standards to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the six months ended June 30, 2026.

Contract assets were $793 million, $525 million and $834 million and contract liabilities were $358 million, $405 million and $396 million, as of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025, and June 30, 2025, respectively. The Company recognized revenue of $309 million and $334 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, and June 30, 2025, respectively, which was previously included in the contract liability balance as of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Contract assets include unbilled revenue and retentions held by customers in respect of construction contracts as of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025, and June 30, 2025 amounting to $575 million and $218 million, $299 million and $226 million, and $618 million and $216 million, respectively. Unbilled revenue represents the estimated value of unbilled work for projects with performance obligations recognized over time. Retentions represent amounts that have been billed to customers but payment is withheld until final acceptance of the performance obligation by the customer. Retentions that have been billed but are not due until completion of performance and acceptance by customers, are generally expected to be collected within one year. The Company applies the practical expedient and does not adjust any of its transaction prices for the time value of money.

On June 30, 2026, the Company had $3,254 million of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations. The majority of open contracts as of June 30, 2026 are expected to close and revenue to be recognized within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

3. Assets held for sale and divestitures

On January 27, 2026, the Company entered into an agreement to divest of its construction accessories operations for consideration of $0.7 billion. A goodwill impairment of $48 million was recognized on the operations' assets in the first quarter of 2026 to reflect the reduction to fair value less costs to sell, inclusive of Cumulative Translation Adjustment (CTA), the primary driver of the impairment. The transaction closed on May 29, 2026. The results of the divested operations, up to the date of divestiture, are reported in the International Solutions segment.

On March 16, 2026, the Company entered into an agreement to divest of its lawn and garden operations for consideration of $1.1 billion. The transaction closed on May 8, 2026. The results of the divested operations, up to the date of divestiture, are reported in the Americas Building Solutions segment.

Total second quarter divestitures resulted in a pre-tax gain of $266 million which is included in Other nonoperating income (expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

CRH FORM 10-Q

4. Acquisitions

The Company strategically acquires companies in order to increase its footprint and offer products and services that enhance its existing offerings. These acquisitions are accounted for as business combinations using the acquisition method, whereby the purchase price is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, based on their estimated fair values at the date of the acquisition with the remaining amount recorded in Goodwill.

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company completed the acquisition of 16 companies. The total cash consideration for these acquisitions, net of cash acquired, was $1,110 million. The estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are provisional and are based on the information that was available as of the acquisition dates. The Company expects to finalize the valuation and complete the purchase price allocations as soon as practical but no later than one year from the acquisition dates.

The provisional amounts for assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration related to the acquisitions as of June 30, 2026, including measurement period adjustments to provisional fair values in respect of acquisitions completed in previous periods, were:

(i) Acquisitions are aggregated on the basis of individual immateriality. The acquisition balance sheet presented in this note reflects the identifiable net assets acquired in respect of acquisitions completed in the six months ended June 30, 2026, together with measurement period adjustments to provisional fair values in respect of acquisitions completed during previous periods; none of which were material or non-routine substantial.

As a result of the acquisitions completed in the six months ended June 30, 2026, including adjustments to provisional values, the Company recognized $114 million of amortizable intangible assets and $649 million of goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration paid over the fair value of net assets acquired and includes the expected benefit of cost savings and synergies within the Company’s segments and intangible assets that do not qualify for separate recognition. Of the goodwill recognized in respect of the acquisitions completed in the six months ended June 30, 2026, $60 million is expected to be deductible for tax purposes. The amortizable intangible assets will be amortized against earnings over a weighted average of eight years.

On June 22, 2026, CRH announced a definitive agreement to acquire Arcosa, a leading U.S. provider of infrastructure-related materials, products, and solutions, headquartered in Dallas, Texas, in an all-cash transaction for $150 per share reflecting a total enterprise value of approximately $8.5 billion. The acquisition is expected to close in the first quarter of 2027 subject to approval of Arcosa’s stockholders, regulatory approvals, and other customary closing conditions.

(i) The $300 million 6.400% Senior Notes were issued in September 2003, and at the time of issuance the Senior Notes were partially swapped to floating interest rates. In August 2009 and December 2010, $87 million of the issued Senior Notes were acquired by the Company as part of liability management exercises undertaken and the interest rate hedge was closed out. The remaining fair value hedge adjustment on the hedged item in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets was $22 million, $23 million, and $25 million as of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025, and June 30, 2025, respectively.

(ii) Of the Company’s nominal fixed rate debt as of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025, and June 30, 2025, $500 million, $500 million, and $500 million, respectively, was hedged to daily compounded Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) using interest rate swaps. Of the Company’s nominal floating rate debt as of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025, and June 30, 2025, $413 million, $nil million, and $nil million, respectively, was hedged to fixed rates using interest rate swaps.

(iii) Excludes borrowings from bank overdrafts of $105 million, $120 million, and $107 million, which are recorded within Current portion of long-term debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025, and June 30, 2025, respectively.

Senior Notes:

The Senior Notes are issued by wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company and carry full and unconditional guarantees from the Company, as defined in the indentures that govern them. These Senior Notes represent senior unsecured obligations of the Company and hold an equal standing in payment priority with the Company's existing and future senior unsubordinated indebtedness.

With the exception of the 6.400% Senior Notes due 2033, all other Senior Notes can be redeemed before their respective par call dates, at a make-whole redemption price. Post par call dates and before the respective maturity dates, the Senior Notes can be redeemed at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount, along with any accrued and unpaid interest.

In the event of a change-of-control repurchase event, the Company is obligated to offer repurchase options for the 3.400% Senior Notes due 2027, 3.950% Senior Notes due 2028, 5.200% Senior Notes due 2029, 5.125% Senior Notes due 2030, 4.400% Senior Notes due 2031, 5.400% Senior Notes due 2034, 5.500% Senior Notes due 2035, 5.000% Senior Notes due 2036, 5.125% Senior Notes due 2045, 4.400% Senior Notes due 2047, 4.500% Senior Notes due 2048, 5.875% Senior Notes due 2055, and 5.600% Senior Notes due 2056. This repurchase involves a cash payment equal to 101% of the principal amount, along with any accrued and unpaid interest.

If the Company's credit rating falls below investment-grade, the Company would be required to make an additional coupon step-up payment on the 5.125% Senior Notes due 2045. The increase is 25 basis points (bps) per rating notch per agency, capped at 100 bps per agency. However, this coupon step-up would reverse if the Company returns to an investment-grade rating.

Bank Debt:

The Company maintains a multi-currency Revolving Credit Facility (the 'RCF') with a syndicate of lenders. The RCF offers a senior unsecured revolving credit facility of €3,500 million over five years, maturing May 11, 2030. Borrowings under the RCF bear interest at rates based upon an underlying base rate, plus a margin determined in accordance with a ratings-based pricing grid. Base rates include SOFR for U.S. Dollar, Euro Interbank Offer Rate (EURIBOR) for euros, Sterling Overnight Index Average (SONIA) for Sterling, and Swiss Average Rate Overnight (SARON) for Swiss Francs, respectively. A commitment fee is payable on a quarterly basis based on a percentage of the applicable margin and calculated on the daily undrawn amount of the facility.

The deferred financing costs associated with the RCF were $4 million as of June 30, 2026. The total potential credit available through this arrangement is €3,500 million, inclusive of the ability to issue letters of credit.

As of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025, and June 30, 2025, there were no outstanding borrowings or letters of credit issued under the RCF and the undrawn committed facility available to be drawn by the Company as of June 30, 2026 was $3,988 million (€3,500 million equivalent).

The RCF includes customary terms and conditions for investment-grade borrowers. There are no financial covenants.

In December 2024, the Company entered into a new $750 million two-year fixed rate term loan facility which was fully drawn. In December 2025, this facility was extended by one year to 2027.

In connection with the Arcosa Acquisition, on June 22, 2026, the Company, as guarantor, and CRH America Finance, Inc., a Delaware corporation and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (‘America Finance’), as borrower, entered into a bridge facility agreement with the lenders party thereto, pursuant to which the lenders committed to provide a 364-day $5.8 billion U.S. dollar term loan facility (the ‘Bridge Facility’) to finance, in part, the consideration payable in connection with the Arcosa Acquisition, the refinancing of certain of Arcosa’s existing debt and related fees and expenses. Borrowings under the Bridge Facility bear interest at SOFR plus a margin which increases over the tenor of the loan, initially at 0.25% for the first quarter, increasing to 0.40% for the next quarter, and increasing by another 0.20% each quarter thereafter. A ticking fee is payable on a quarterly basis based on a percentage of the applicable margin and calculated on the daily undrawn amount of the Bridge Facility. As of June 30, 2026, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Bridge Facility.

On July 17, 2026, the Company, as guarantor, and America Finance, as borrower, entered into a three-year $2.5 billion term loan facility in connection with the Arcosa Acquisition (the ‘Term Loan Facility’). As a result of the Term Loan Facility, the commitments under the Bridge Facility were reduced from $5.8 billion to $3.3 billion. Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility bear interest at SOFR plus a margin determined in accordance with a ratings-based pricing grid. A ticking fee is payable on a quarterly basis based on a percentage of the applicable margin and calculated on the daily undrawn amount of the Term Loan Facility.

Both the Bridge Facility and the Term Loan Facility include customary terms and conditions for investment-grade borrowers. There are no financial covenants. The funding of the Bridge Facility and the Term Loan Facility are subject to the occurrence of customary closing conditions for the Arcosa Acquisition.

Philippines (PHP) Debt:

The Company's subsidiary, Republic Cement & Building Materials, Inc., has entered into a number of committed credit arrangements with local banks totaling $0.4 billion (PHP23.6 billion). The Company does not guarantee these facilities. The funds drawn from these facilities carry a combination of fixed and floating interest rates.

Australian (AUD) Debt:

In July 2024, the Company acquired Adbri which had committed credit agreements with a range of banks and credit institutions totaling $0.6 billion (AUD0.9 billion). The funds drawn from these facilities carried a combination of fixed and floating interest rates. In November 2025, Adbri entered into a new credit facility with a range of banks and credit institutions totaling $0.8 billion (AUD1.2 billion). Funds were initially drawn to retire a portion of Adbri's existing credit facilities. The Company does not provide a guarantee for Adbri's facilities. The funds drawn from these facilities carry a combination of fixed and floating interest rates.

Commercial Paper:

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had a $4 billion U.S. Dollar Commercial Paper Program and a €1.5 billion Euro Commercial Paper Program. The purpose of these programs is to provide short-term liquidity as required. The Company’s RCF supports the commercial paper programs with a separate €750 million swingline sublimit which allows for same-day drawing in either euro or U.S. Dollar. Commercial paper borrowings may vary during the period, largely as a result of fluctuations in funding requirements.

10. Fair value measurement

Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and is measured using inputs in one of the following three categories:

Level 1 measurements are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Valuation of these items does not entail a significant amount of judgment.

Level 2 measurements are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active or market data other than quoted prices that are observable for the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 measurements are based on unobservable data that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Considerable judgment may be required in interpreting market data used to develop the estimates of fair value.

The carrying values of the Company’s Long-term debt were $17,821 million, $17,533 million, and $15,706 million as of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025, and June 30, 2025, respectively. The fair values of the Company’s Long-term debt were $17,608 million, $17,502 million, and $15,587 million as of June 30, 2026, December 31, 2025, and June 30, 2025, respectively. The Company’s Long-term debt obligations are Level 2 instruments whose fair value is derived from quoted market prices.

The Redeemable noncontrolling interests included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets are marked to fair value on a recurring basis using Level 3 inputs. The redemption value of Redeemable noncontrolling interests approximates the fair value and is based on a range of estimated potential outcomes of the expected payment amounts primarily dependent on underlying performance metrics. The unobservable inputs in the valuation include a discount rate determined using a Capital Asset Pricing Model methodology with ranges of between 6.22% and 7.26%.

See Note 17 for the changes in the fair value of Redeemable noncontrolling interests.

The carrying values of the Company’s Cash and cash equivalents, Restricted cash, Accounts receivable, net, Current portion of long-term debt, Accounts payable, Accrued expenses, and Other current liabilities approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

11. Income taxes

The Company’s income tax provision for interim periods is calculated using an estimated annual effective tax rate based on the expected full-year results which is applied to ordinary year-to-date income or loss. The income tax provision is adjusted for discrete items that occur in the applicable interim period to arrive at the effective income tax rate.

The summary of the income tax expense from operations was:

16. Variable interest entities

The Company’s operations in the Philippines are conducted through a Variable Interest Entity (VIE), wherein the Company holds 40% of the equity share capital and a 55% share of earnings and distributions. The remaining noncontrolling interest of 60% equity share capital and 45% share of earnings and distributions is held by an unrelated party. The Company’s voting rights are not proportional to its share of earnings and distributions, and substantially all of the activities of the Philippines business are conducted on behalf of the Company and controlled by the Company through contractual relationships. The Philippines business meets the definition of a VIE for which the Company is the primary beneficiary and, therefore, is consolidated.

Further, the Company has provided subordinated debt to the intermediate parent of the Philippines business which exposes the Company to the profits and losses of the Philippines business. The debt is repayable only where the shareholder agreement of the intermediate parent of the Philippines business is terminated or where the Company transfers its shares in the intermediate parent to an unrelated entity (i.e., the debt exposure of the Company becomes in substance a residual interest in the intermediate parent).

17. Redeemable noncontrolling interests

The Redeemable noncontrolling interests primarily comprise the noncontrolling interests in two of the Company’s North American subsidiaries, which are currently redeemable. The Company has the ability to exercise the call options for the noncontrolling interests after December 31, 2035, and December 31, 2040, respectively. In addition to the call options, the noncontrolling interest holder has the right to sell the noncontrolling interests to the Company, which are currently exercisable. These noncontrolling interests have put and call options and both are redeemable based on multiples of EBITDA. The noncontrolling interests are considered redeemable noncontrolling equity interests, classified as temporary or mezzanine equity, as their redemption is not solely within the Company’s control. The noncontrolling interests were recorded at their respective fair values as of the acquisition dates and are adjusted to their expected redemption values, with an offsetting entry to retained earnings, as of the reporting date as if that date was the redemption date, if those amounts exceed their respective carrying values.

During the periods ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025 the Company adjusted the carrying amount of the redeemable noncontrolling interests to reflect the estimated redemption values as of the balance sheet date. The adjustment was based on the formulaic redemption values, with an offsetting entry to retained earnings.

The following table summarizes the redeemable noncontrolling interest for the following periods:
