UNITED STATES LIME & MINERALS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

  1. Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by United States Lime & Minerals, Inc. (the “Company”) without independent audit. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2024. The results of operations for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year.

  1. Organization

The Company is a manufacturer of lime and limestone products, supplying primarily the construction (including highway, road, and building contractors), industrial (including paper and glass manufacturers), environmental (including municipal sanitation and water treatment facilities and flue gas treatment processes), metals (including steel producers), roof shingle manufacturers, agriculture (including poultry producers), and oil and gas services industries. The Company is headquartered in Dallas, Texas and operates lime and limestone plants and distribution facilities in Arkansas, Colorado, Louisiana, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Arkansas Lime Company, ART Quarry TRS LLC (DBA Carthage Crushed Limestone), Colorado Lime Company, Mill Creek Dolomite, LLC, Texas Lime Company, U.S. Lime Company, U.S. Lime Company-Shreveport, U.S. Lime Company-St. Clair, and U.S. Lime Company-Transportation. In addition, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, U.S. Lime Company-O & G, LLC, has royalty and non-operated working interests in natural gas wells located in Johnson County, Texas, in the Barnett Shale Formation.

  1. Accounting Policies

Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue for its lime and limestone operations when (i) a contract with the customer exists and the performance obligations are identified; (ii) the price has been established; and (iii) the performance obligations have been satisfied, which is generally upon shipment. The Company’s returns and allowances are minimal. Revenues include external freight billed to customers with related costs accounted for as fulfillment costs and included in cost of revenues. External freight billed to customers included in 2025 and 2024 revenues was$13.7 million and $12.3 million, for the respective three-month periods ended September 30, and $37.3 million and $34.5 million, for the respective nine-month periods ended September 30, which approximates the amount of external freight included in cost of revenues. Sales taxes billed to customers are not included in revenues. For its natural gas interests, the Company recognizes revenue in the month of production and delivery.

Trade Receivables, Net. The majority of the Company’s trade receivables are unsecured. Payment terms for all trade receivables are based on the underlying purchase orders, contracts, or purchase agreements, and are generally fixed, short-term, and do not contain a significant financing component. The Company estimates credit losses relating to trade receivables based on an assessment of the current and forecasted probability of collection, historical trends, economic conditions, and other significant events that may impact the collectability of accounts receivables. Due to the relatively homogenous nature of its trade receivables, the Company does not believe there are any meaningful asset-specific differences within its trade receivables portfolio that would require the portfolio to be grouped below the consolidated level for review of credit losses. Credit losses relating to trade receivables have generally been within management expectations and historical trends. Uncollected trade receivables are charged-off when identified by management to be unrecoverable. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses to reflect currently expected estimated losses resulting from the failure of customers to make required payments.

  1. Reportable Segment

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board amended guidance in ASC 280,Segment Reporting(“ASC 280”), by issuing Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, which updated the disclosure requirements for reportable segments, primarily through requiring enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The Company adopted this guidance in the fourth quarter 2024, with retrospective application to prior reportable periods.

The Company is managed asone reportable segment, lime and limestone operations, based on the distinctness of the Company’s activities and products. All operations are in the United States. During 2024, the Company determined that the activities of its natural gas interests and the associated level of review of those activities by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) precluded the natural gas activities from meeting the definition of an operating segment, as provided in ASC 280. In addition, previously unallocated items, including cash, interest income and expense, and other expense are now included as part of lime and limestone operations, and consolidated net income is now used as the measure of segment profit or loss. Segment disclosures for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 have been recast to be consistent with the presentation for the periods ended September 30, 2025.

The Company’s CODM is the chief executive officer. The Company’s lime and limestone operations derives revenues from the sale of crushed limestone, pulverized limestone, aggregate, quicklime, hydrated lime, and lime slurry.

In evaluating the operating results of the Company, the CODM assesses performance for the lime and limestone operations segment and decides how to allocate resources (including, but not limited to, decisions on fuel blends, capital investments, and staffing levels) based on net income that is also reported on the consolidated statements of income. The measure of segment assets is reported on the consolidated balance sheets as “Total assets,” and the measure of segment capital expenditures is reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows as “Purchase of property, plant, and equipment.”

The following table presents revenue, significant expenses, and profit for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, as reviewed and used by the CODM. There are no other significant segment items or reconciling items to consolidated net income.

Parts inventories​18,323​15,739​
​​$28,681​$27,686​
  1. Banking Facilities and Debt

The Company’s credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (the “Lender”), as amended as of August 3, 2023, provides for a$75 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) and an incremental four-year accordion feature to borrow up to an additional$50 million on the same terms, subject to approval by the Lender or another lender selected by the Company. The credit agreement also provides for a$10 million letter of credit sublimit under the Revolving Facility. The Revolving Facility and any incremental loans mature on August 3, 2028.

Interest rates on the Revolving Facility are, at the Company’s option, SOFR, plus a SOFR adjustment rate of 0.10%, plus a margin of 1.000% to 2.000%, or the Lender’s Prime Rate, plus a margin of 0.000% to 1.000%, and a commitment fee range of 0.225% to 0.350% on the undrawn portion of the Revolving Facility. The Revolving Facility interest rate margins and commitment fee are determined quarterly in accordance with a pricing grid based upon the Company’s Cash Flow Leverage Ratio, defined as the ratio of the Company’s total funded senior indebtedness to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, and stock-based compensation expense

(“EBITDA”) for the 12 months ended on the last day of the most recent calendar quarter, plus pro forma EBITDA from any businesses acquired during the period. Pursuant to a security agreement, dated August 25, 2004, the Revolving Facility is secured by the Company’s existing and hereafter acquired tangible assets, intangible assets, and real property. The maturity of the Revolving Facility and any incremental loans can be accelerated if any event of default, as defined under the credit agreement, occurs. The Company’s maximum Cash Flow Leverage Ratio is 3.50 to 1.

The Company may pay dividends so long as it remains in compliance with the provisions of the Company’s credit agreement, and it may purchase, redeem, or otherwise acquire shares of its common stock so long as its pro forma Cash Flow Leverage Ratio is less than 3.00 to 1.00 and no default or event of default exists or would exist after giving effect to such stock repurchase.

As of September 30, 2025, the Company hadno debt outstanding and no draws on the Revolving Facility other than $4.7 million of letters of credit, principally related to the new kiln project at the Texas Lime Company plant, which count as draws against the available commitment under the Revolving Facility.

  1. Leases

The Company has operating leases for the use of equipment, corporate office space, and some of its terminal and distribution facilities. The leases have remaining lease terms of 0 to 8 years, with a weighted-average remaining lease term of 4 years at both September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Some operating leases include options toextend the leases for up to 5 years and are only considered in the lease terms if the Company is reasonably certain it will exercise the option to extend.

Cash payments for lease liabilities included in operating cash flows​$1,510​$1,450
Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for operating lease obligations​$368​$827
  1. Income Taxes

The Company has estimated that its effective income tax rate for 2025 will be 21.1%. The primary reason for the effective income tax rate being above the federal statutory rate is due to state income taxes, partially offset by statutory depletion, which is allowed for income tax purposes and is a permanent difference between net income for financial reporting purposes and taxable income.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) was signed into law. The OBBBA makes permanent key elements of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, including 100% bonus depreciation. The OBBBA did not have a material impact on the Company’s effective income tax rate for 2025, but it did reduce the Company’s cash tax outflows for the remainder of 2025 from what they would have been under the previous federal tax law.

  1. Dividends

On September 12, the Company paid$1.7 million in cash dividends, based on a dividend of$0.06 per share of its common stock, to shareholders of record at the close of business on August 22, 2025. On June 13, 2025, the Company paid$1.7 million in cash dividends, based on a dividend of$0.06 per share of its common stock, to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 23, 2025. On March 14, 2025, the Company paid$1.7 million in cash dividends, based on a dividend of$0.06 per share of its common stock, to shareholders of record at the close of business on February 21, 2025.

  1. Subsequent Event

On October 29, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of$0.06 per share on the Company’s common stock. This dividend is payable on December 12, 2025, to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 21, 2025.
