Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q 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 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. In the opinion of management, the interim consolidated financial information provided herein reflects all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the interim periods. The consolidated results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for other interim periods or the full year. The consolidated balance sheet at 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 GAAP for complete financial statements. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions about future events. As future events and their effects cannot be fully determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from estimates. Changes in estimates are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period in which the change in estimate occurs.

Earnings per Common Share
The numerator for basic and diluted earnings per common share is net earnings attributable to Martin Marietta. The denominator for basic earnings per common share is the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed assuming that the weighted-average number of common shares is increased by the conversion, using the treasury stock method, of awards to be issued to employees and nonemployee members of the Company’s Board of Directors under certain stock-based compensation arrangements if the conversion is dilutive.
The following table reconciles the denominator for basic and diluted earnings from continuing operations per common share:
| Three Months Ended | ||
|---|---|---|
| March 31, | ||
| 2026 | 2025 | |
| (In Millions) | ||
| Basic weighted-average common shares outstanding | 60.3 | 60.9 |
| Effect of dilutive employee and director awards | 0.1 | 0.1 |
| Diluted weighted-average common shares outstanding | 60.4 | 61.0 |
New Accounting Pronouncement
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (DISE), which requires public entities to disaggregate any relevant expense caption presented on the face of the income statement within continuing operations into the following required natural expense categories, as applicable: (1) purchases of inventory, (2) employee compensation, (3) depreciation, (4) intangible asset amortization, and (5) depreciation, depletion and amortization recognized as part of oil- and gas-producing activities or other depletion expenses. These disclosures must be made in a tabular format in the footnotes to the financial statements. The new standard does not change the requirements for the presentation of expenses on the face of the statement of earnings. The ASU is effective prospectively for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. The ASU will impact the Company's expense disclosures beginning with the financial statements included in the 2027 Annual Report on Form 10-K, but will have no impact on its results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made in the Company's financial statements of the prior year to conform to the current-year presentation. The reclassifications had no impact on the Company’s previously reported results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Business Combinations
QUIKRETE Holdings, Inc. 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 acquired aggregates facilities complement Martin Marietta's existing geographic footprint in its Central Division and allow the Company to expand into new growth platforms in Virginia and the Pacific Northwest.
The Company determined the acquisition-date fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company has recorded preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which are subject to additional reviews that are not yet complete. As such, these amounts are subject to change during the measurement period, which extends no longer than one year from the consummation date, and remains open as of March 31, 2026. Specific accounts subject to ongoing purchase accounting adjustments include, but are not limited to, inventory; property, plant and equipment; intangible assets; other assets; other liabilities; deferred income taxes and goodwill. Of the total goodwill generated by the transaction, $141 million is not deductible and $79 million is deductible for income tax purposes.
The following is a summary of the preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of February 23, 2026 (dollars in millions):

Revenues and pretax loss attributable to QUIKRETE included in the Company's consolidated statements of earnings and comprehensive earnings were $42 million and $14 million, respectively, for thethree months ended March 31, 2026. The pretax loss includes a $22 million charge for the impact of selling acquired inventory after its markup to fair value as part of acquisition accounting.
The following unaudited pro forma financial information summarizes the combined results of the continuing operations for the Company and QUIKRETE as though the companies were combined as of January 1, 2025. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not purport to project the future financial position or operating results of the combined company. Consistent with the assumed acquisition date of January 1, 2025, the pro forma financial results include $8 million of after-tax acquisition and integration expenses and a $49 million after-tax charge from selling inventory after its markup to fair value for thethree months ended March 31, 2025.

Premier Magnesia, LLC. On July 25, 2025, the Company acquired Premier Magnesia, LLC (Premier), a privately-owned producer and distributor of magnesia-based products, using cash on hand and credit facility borrowings. Premier is the largest producer of natural magnesite and magnesium sulfate, or Epsom salt, in the United States, with facilities in Nevada, North Carolina, Indiana and Pennsylvania. This transaction expanded the Company's product offerings to new and existing customers and enhanced the Company's Specialties business. The Company has recorded preliminary fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which are subject to additional reviews that are not yet complete. Thus, these amounts are subject to change during the measurement period, which extends no longer than one year from the consummation date, and remains open as of March 31, 2026. Specific accounts subject to ongoing purchase accounting adjustments, include, but are not limited to, property, plant and equipment; goodwill; and other liabilities.

Divestitures
On February 23, 2026, the Company divested its Midlothian cement plant, related cement distribution terminals, Texas ready mixed concrete plants and certain nonoperating land as part of the QUIKRETE asset exchange. The divestiture of the Company's sole cement business and remaining Texas ready mixed concrete operations optimizes its portfolio and product mix and preserves balance sheet capacity to pursue pure-play aggregates opportunities. The transaction resulted in an after-tax gain of $1.4 billion, which is included in earnings from discontinued operations, net of income tax expense, in the Company's consolidated statement of earnings and comprehensive earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and is exclusive of transaction expenses incurred due to the divestiture.

The Company has a credit agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc., PNC Bank, Truist Bank and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Syndication Agents, and the lenders party thereto (the Credit Agreement), which provides for an $800 million five-year senior unsecured revolving facility (the Revolving Facility) with a maturity date of December 21, 2030. Borrowings under the Revolving Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at rates based upon the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) or a base rate, plus, for each rate, a margin determined in accordance with a ratings-based pricing grid. Any outstanding principal amounts, together with interest accrued thereon, are due in full on that maturity date. There were no borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Facility as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Available borrowings under the Revolving Facility are reduced by any outstanding letters of credit issued by the Company under the Revolving Facility. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had $3 million of outstanding letters of credit issued under the Revolving Facility.
The Credit Agreement requires the Company’s ratio of consolidated net debt-to-consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization (EBITDA), as defined, for the trailing-twelve months (the Ratio) to not exceed 3.50 x as of the end of any fiscal quarter, provided that the Company may exclude from the Ratio any debt incurred in connection with certain acquisitions during the quarter or three preceding quarters so long as the Ratio calculated without such exclusion does not exceed 4.25 x. Additionally, if no amounts are outstanding under the Revolving Facility or the Company's trade receivable securitization facility (discussed below), consolidated debt, as defined, which includes 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.
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, with Truist Bank, Regions Bank, First Citizens Bank & Trust Company, and certain other lenders that may become a party to the facility from time to time, is backed by eligible trade receivables, as defined. Borrowings are limited to the lesser of the facility limit or the borrowing base, as defined. These receivables are originated by the Company and then sold or contributed to the wholly-owned, special-purpose subsidiary. The Company continues to be responsible for the servicing and administration of the receivables purchased by the wholly-owned, special-purpose subsidiary. Borrowings under the Trade Receivable Facility bear interest at a rate equal to the Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (Adjusted Term SOFR), as defined, plus 0.7%. The Trade Receivable Facility contains a cross-default provision to the Company’s other debt agreements. Subject to certain conditions, including lenders providing the requisite commitments, the Trade Receivable Facility may be increased to a borrowing base not to exceed $600 million.
Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments include temporary cash investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, Trade Receivable Facility borrowings and publicly-registered long-term notes and debentures.
Temporary cash investments are placed primarily in money market funds, money market demand deposit accounts and Eurodollar time deposit accounts with financial institutions. The Company’s cash equivalents have maturities of less than three months. Due to the short maturity of these investments, they are carried on the consolidated balance sheets at cost, which approximates fair value.
Accounts receivable are due from a large number of customers, primarily in the construction industry, and are dispersed across wide geographic and economic regions. However, accounts receivable are more heavily concentrated in certain states, namely Texas, North Carolina, Colorado, California, Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, Arizona, Iowa and Minnesota. The carrying values of accounts receivable approximate their fair values.
Accounts payable represent amounts owed to suppliers and vendors. The estimated carrying value of accounts payable approximates its fair value due to the short-term nature of the payables.
The carrying value and fair value of the Company’s debt were$5.3 billion and $4.7 billion, respectively, at March 31, 2026 and$5.3 billion and$4.9 billion, respectively, at December 31, 2025. Due to its short-term nature, the carrying value of Trade Receivable Facility borrowings at December 31, 2025 approximates its fair value. The estimated fair value of the Company’s publicly-registered long-term debt was estimated based on Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy using quoted market prices.
Income Taxes
The Company's effective income tax rate reflects the effect of federal and state income taxes on earnings and the impact of differences in book and tax accounting arising primarily from the permanent tax benefits associated with the statutory depletion deduction for mineral reserves. The effective income tax rates for continuing operations were 32.3% and 21.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, 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.
The Company invests in renewable energy investment entities which qualify for tax credits and other tax benefits (RETC projects) and are accounted for under the proportional amortization method. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company's annualized effective tax rate included the proportional amortization of these investments of $11 million and $7 million, respectively, offset by other tax benefits of $10 million and $7 million, respectively. Unfunded commitments of tax equity investments as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are recorded in Unpaid commitments in limited liability companies on the consolidated balance sheets.
Pension Benefits
The net periodic benefit cost for pension benefits includes the following components:
| Three Months Ended March 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2026 | 2025 | |
| (Dollars in Millions) | ||
| Service cost | $9 | $9 |
| Interest cost | 15 | 15 |
| Expected return on assets | (23) | (21) |
| Amortization of prior service cost | 2 | 2 |
| Net periodic benefit cost | $3 | $5 |
The components of net periodic benefit cost, other than service cost, are included in the line item Other nonoperating income, net, in the consolidated statements of earnings and comprehensive earnings. Based on the roles of the employees, service cost is included in the Cost of revenues or Selling, general and administrative expenses line items in the consolidated statements of earnings and comprehensive earnings.
