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.
| BUILDING MATERIALS BUSINESS (continuing operations only) | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Reportable Segments | East Group | West Group | |||
| Operating Locations | Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia, Nova Scotia and The Bahamas | Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah, Washington and Wyoming | |||
| Product Lines | Aggregates and Asphalt | Aggregates, Cement, Ready Mixed Concrete, Asphalt and Paving Services | |||
| Facility Types | Quarries, Mines, Asphalt Plants and Distribution Facilities | Quarries, Mines, Cement Plants, Asphalt Plants, Ready Mixed Concrete Plants and Distribution Facilities | |||
| Modes of Transportation | Truck, Railcar and Ship | Truck, Railcar and Ship |
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.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

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:
| Three Months Ended | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

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,

For the Quarter Ended March 31, 2022
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.
