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, 2026, the Company supplies aggregates (crushed stone, sand and gravel) through its network of approximately 480 quarries, mines and distribution yards in 28 states, Canada and The Bahamas. Martin Marietta also provides other building materials, namely, ready mixed concrete, asphalt and paving services, in certain vertically-integrated structured markets where the Company has a notable aggregates position.

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 and other building materials product lines are reported collectively as the Building Materials business.

On February 23, 2026, the Company completed its previously announced asset exchange with QUIKRETE Holdings, Inc. (QUIKRETE). Under the terms of the transaction, Martin Marietta acquired aggregates operations producing approximately 20 million tons annually in Virginia, Missouri, Kansas and Vancouver, British Columbia and an asphalt and paving business in Vancouver, British Columbia, along with $450 million in cash. In exchange, QUIKRETE acquired the Company’s Midlothian cement plant, related cement distribution terminals, Texas ready mixed concrete assets and certain nonoperating land. The financial results for the Midlothian cement plant, related cement terminals and Texas ready mixed concrete plants are reported as discontinued operations through the divestiture date and for the comparable prior-year quarter (see Note 2 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements).

In connection with closing the asset exchange during the quarter ended March 31, 2026, the Company updated its reportable segments. As of March 31, 2026, the Building Materials business includes two reportable segments: East Group (comprised of the East and Southwest divisions) and West Group (comprised of the Central and West divisions). The Company has recast all comparative prior-period information presented in the related notes to the financial statements to reflect the updated reportable segments.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Continued)

The Building Materials business is significantly affected by weather patterns, precipitation and other weather-related conditions. Production and shipment levels for aggregates, 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. Excessive rainfall, drought, wildfire and extreme hot and cold temperatures 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's Specialties business (formerly known as the Magnesia Specialties business), which represents a separate reportable segment, has manufacturing facilities in Michigan, Ohio, Nevada, North Carolina, Indiana and Pennsylvania. The Specialties business produces high-purity natural and synthetic magnesia-based products, including magnesium sulfate, magnesium oxide and magnesium hydroxide, used in a wide range of environmental, industrial, agricultural, construction, consumer and specialty applications. The Specialties business also produces dolomitic lime, which is sold primarily to external customers for use in steel production and soil stabilization, and is used internally as a raw material input in synthetic magnesia production.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company outlined its critical accounting policies in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. There were no changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

All financial and operating results included in this section are for continuing operations and comparisons are versus the prior-year first quarter, unless otherwise noted.

Building Materials Business

First-quarter aggregates shipments increased 12.4% to 43.9 million tons, driven by organic growth and partial-quarter contributions from the operations acquired in the QUIKRETE transaction, which closed on February 23, 2026. Average selling price (ASP) of $23.70 per ton was in line with prior-year first quarter, reflecting geographic and acquisition mix headwinds, as organic shipment growth was notable in the Central and West Divisions, which typically carry lower selling prices compared with the East and Southwest Divisions.

Aggregates gross profit decreased $9 million, or 3%, from the prior-year quarter to $288 million, inclusive of the $22 million charge for the impact of selling acquired inventory after markup to fair market value as part of acquisition accounting and higher depreciation, depletion and amortization expense.

Other Building Materials revenues decreased 5% to $116 million. Consistent with historical first-quarter trends, the business posted a gross loss of $16 million due to seasonal winter operational shutdowns in Colorado and Minnesota.

Specialties Business

Specialties achieved first-quarter revenues of $143 million and gross profit increased 17% to $45 million. These results reflected contributions from the 2025 Premier Magnesia, LLC acquisition and organic pricing gains, partially offset by lower organic shipments and higher energy costs, which weighed on input cost trends during the quarter.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Consolidated SG&A for the first quarter of 2026 was 9.8% of revenues compared with 10.8% in the prior-year quarter as revenue growth outpaced the increase in these expenses.

Income Taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the effective income tax rates for continuing operations were 32.3% and 21.2%, respectively. The higher 2026 effective income tax rate versus 2025 was primarily attributable to the revaluation of deferred tax liabilities driven by changes in the state jurisdictional mix of the business following the QUIKRETE transaction.

Net Earnings and Earnings per Diluted Share from Continuing Operations Attributable to Martin Marietta

Net earnings from continuing operations attributable to Martin Marietta were $79 million, or $1.31 per diluted share, in 2026 compared with $104 million, or $1.70 per diluted share, in 2025. Results for 2026 included after-tax charges of $37 million, or $0.62 per diluted share, related to acquisition, integration and divestiture expenses, the impact of selling acquired inventory after markup to fair value as part of acquisition accounting, an asset and portfolio rationalization charge and the revaluation of deferred tax liabilities driven by changes in the state jurisdictional mix of the business following the QUIKRETE transaction.

Discontinued Operations

The Company's Midlothian cement plant, related cement terminals and Texas ready mixed concrete plants were reported as discontinued operations through their February 2026 divestiture date. The collective businesses generated earnings, net of income tax expense, of $1.4 billion in 2026 compared with $12 million in 2025. The 2026 earnings included a $1.4 billion after-tax gain on the divestiture.

Adjusted EBITDA from Continuing Operations

Earnings from continuing operations before interest; income taxes; depreciation, depletion and amortization; earnings/loss from nonconsolidated equity affiliates; acquisition, divestiture and integration expenses; the impact of selling acquired inventory after its markup to fair value as part of acquisition accounting (the Inventory Markup); and an asset and portfolio rationalization charge, or Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, is an indicator used by the Company and investors to evaluate the Company’s operating performance from period to period. The Company has elected to add back, for purposes of its Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations calculation, acquisition, divestiture and integration expenses and the Inventory Markup only for transactions with consideration of at least $2.0 billion for the Building Materials business or $200 million for the Specialties business.

Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations is not defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and, as such, should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings attributable to Martin Marietta, earnings from operations or operating cash flow. Since Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations excludes some, but not all, items that affect net earnings and may vary among companies, Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations as presented by the Company may not be comparable with similarly titled measures of other companies.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Continued)

Cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was $227 million and $218 million, respectively. Operating cash flow is substantially derived from consolidated net earnings before deducting depreciation, depletion and amortization and the impact of changes in working capital requirements. In the quarter ended March 31, 2026, operating cash flow reflects deducting the noncash gain on the QUIKRETE transaction from net earnings.

The seasonal nature of construction activity impacts the Company’s interim operating cash flow when compared with the full year. Full-year 2025 net cash provided by operating activities was $1.8 billion.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company paid $186 million and $233 million, respectively, for additions to property, plant and equipment.

As part of the QUIKRETE asset exchange, the Company received $450 million in cash, which is included in net cash provided by investing activities for discontinued operations.

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. During the first three months of 2026, the Company repurchased 325,455 shares of common stock at an average price of $614.52 and an aggregate cost of $200 million. At March 31, 2026, 10.7 million shares of common stock remain 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 16, 2026. The Trade Receivable Facility contains a cross-default provision to the Company’s other debt agreements. There were no amounts outstanding on the Trade Receivable Facility as of March 31, 2026.

The Company has an $800 million five-year senior unsecured revolving facility (the Revolving Facility), which matures in December 2030. There were no outstanding borrowings on the Revolving Facility as of March 31, 2026. The Revolving Facility requires the Company’s ratio of consolidated net debt-to-consolidated EBITDA, as defined, for the trailing-twelve-month period (the Ratio) to not exceed 3.50 times 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 4.25 times. 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 guarantor, shall 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 the Ratio at March 31, 2026. 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.

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, meet capital expenditures and discretionary investment needs, fund certain acquisition opportunities that may arise, allow for payment of dividends for the foreseeable future and allow the repurchase of shares of the Company’s common stock. At March 31, 2026, the Company had $1.2 billion 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.

TRENDS AND RISKS

The Company outlined the risks associated with its business in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Management continues to evaluate its exposure to all operating risks on an ongoing basis.

FORM 10-Q

For the Quarter Ended March 31, 2026

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. Consequently, these marketplaces could experience lower levels of economic activity in an environment of rising interest rates.

Management has considered the current economic environment and its potential impact to the Company's business. Demand for aggregates products, particularly in the infrastructure construction market, is affected by federal, state and local budget and deficit issues. Further, delays or cancellations of capital projects in the nonresidential and residential construction markets could occur if companies and consumers are unable to obtain affordable financing for construction projects or if consumer confidence is eroded by economic uncertainty.

Demand in the nonresidential and residential construction markets is affected by interest rates. While unchanged since December 31, 2025, the benchmark federal funds rate remains above the current rate of inflation, resulting in continued restrictive monetary policy.

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, 2026, the Company had an $800 million Revolving Facility and a $400 million Trade Receivable Facility. Borrowings under these facilities bear interest at a variable interest rate. There were no borrowings outstanding at March 31, 2026. 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, 2025.

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 the Company’s effective tax rate, tax payments, cash flow, financial condition and results of operations.

Energy Costs. Energy costs, including diesel fuel, natural gas, electricity, coal and petroleum coke, represent significant production costs of the Company. The Company may be unable to pass along increases in the costs of energy to customers in the form of price increases for the Company’s products. The Specialties business has varying fixed-price agreements for a portion of its 2026 energy requirements. A hypothetical 10% change in the Company’s energy prices in 2026 as compared with 2025, assuming comparable volumes, would change 2026 energy expense for continuing operations by $29 million.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of March 31, 2026, 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, 2026. 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.

See Note 9 Commitments and Contingencies, Legal and Administrative Proceedings to the unaudited consolidated financial statements of this Form 10-Q.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

An investment in Martin Marietta common stock or debt securities involves risks and uncertainties. You should consider the following factors carefully, in addition to the other information contained in this Form 10-Q and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, before deciding to purchase or otherwise trade the Company’s securities.

This Form 10-Q and other written reports and oral statements made from time to time by the Company contain statements that, to the extent they are not recitations of historical fact, constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities law. Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, and are based on assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable, but which may be materially different from actual results. Investors can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate only to historic or current facts. The words “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “intend,” “outlook,” “plan,” “project,” “scheduled,” and similar expressions in connection with future events or future operating or financial performance are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Any or all of the Company’s forward-looking statements in this Form 10‑Q and in other publications may turn out to be wrong.

Statements and assumptions on future revenues, income and cash flows, performance, economic trends, the outcome of litigation, regulatory compliance, and environmental remediation cost estimates are examples of forward-looking statements. Numerous factors, including potentially the risk factors described in this section, could affect the Company's forward-looking statements and actual performance.

Investors are also cautioned that it is not possible to predict or identify all such factors. Consequently, the reader should not consider these risk factors to be a complete statement of all potential risks or uncertainties. Other factors besides those set forth herein may adversely affect the Company and may be material to the Company. The Company has listed the known material risks it considers relevant in evaluating the Company and its operations. The forward-looking statements in this document are intended to be subject to the safe harbor protection provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date hereof based on management’s current expectations, and the Company does not undertake an obligation to update such statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, other than as required by law.

For a discussion identifying some important factors that could cause actual results to vary materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements, see the factors listed below, along with Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations under Item 2 of this Form 10-Q, and Note 1: Significant Accounting Policies and Note 9: Commitments and Contingencies of the Notes to Financial Statements of the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements included under Item 1, Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q.

Industry Risk Factors

Our business depends on construction activity, which is cyclical and sensitive to macroeconomic, funding and operating conditions.

Demand for our construction materials is inherently cyclical and may decline or become more volatile due to economic and political uncertainty, elevated interest rates and inflation, reduced housing affordability, lower private nonresidential investment, or tightening credit conditions that delay, downsize, or cancel projects. Our products are used in public infrastructure projects, which include the construction, maintenance and improvement of highways, streets, roads,

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

bridges, schools and similar projects. Public infrastructure activity depends on federal, state, and local budgets and bid schedules. Changes in fuel-tax or other alternative financing, prolonged federal budget disputes or government shutdowns or other factors can reduce, defer, cap, suspend, or reprioritize transportation spending. The level and timing of federal, state or local transportation or infrastructure or public projects funding, including any issues arising from such budgets, particularly in our Building Materials business’ top ten revenue-generating states of Texas, North Carolina, Colorado, California, Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, Arizona, Iowa and Minnesota, can have an adverse impact on our business and construction projects that we supply.

We sell most of our aggregates (our primary business) to the construction industry and, therefore, our results depend on that industry’s strength. Because our businesses depend on construction spending, which can be cyclical, our profits are sensitive to national, regional and local economic conditions and the intensity of the underlying spending on aggregates. Construction spending is affected by economic conditions, changes in interest rates, inflation, employment levels, demographic and population shifts, and changes in construction budgets by federal, state and local governments. Further, delays or cancellations of projects in the nonresidential and residential construction markets, which combined accounted for 58% of aggregates shipments in 2025, could occur if companies and consumers are unable to obtain financing for construction projects or if consumer confidence continues to be eroded or affected by economic uncertainty.

In addition, reductions in defense spending and declines in energy-related construction could lower demand in certain markets and adversely affect our business. A portion of our aggregates and downstream shipments is tied to construction activity funded by, or adjacent to, U.S. Department of Defense installations and to private energy-related projects. If federal defense budgets are reduced, appropriations are delayed, base realignments occur or military construction and related projects are deferred or canceled, construction activity on or near affected installations may slow, resulting in lower shipments and increased pricing pressure in the surrounding local markets. Similarly, energy-sector cyclicality can materially impact construction demand, particularly in Texas and other energy-intensive regions.

While our business operations cover a wide geographic area, our earnings depend on the strength of the local economies in which we operate due to the high cost to transport our products relative to their selling price. If economic conditions and construction spending decline significantly in one or more areas, particularly in our Building Materials business’ top ten revenue-generating states, our profitability could be adversely affected.

Widespread declines in aggregates pricing could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Aggregates pricing is set locally and is sensitive to supply-demand conditions within each market. A broad decline in construction activity or shifts in project timing can reduce shipment volumes and intensify price competition. Lower volumes can also negatively impact fixed-cost absorption and prompt competitors or customers to seek price concessions, leading to further pricing pressure. Pricing could deteriorate due to one or more of the following, alone or in combination:

Reduced demand across residential, nonresidential, or public infrastructure markets;

Delays or deferrals in the rele
