MARTIN MARIETTA MATERIALS, INC.,
ANNOUNCES FIRST-QUARTER RESULTS
RALEIGH, North Carolina (April 29, 2003) Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. (NYSE:MLM), today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2003. Net sales for the quarter were $283.3 million compared with $289.9 million for the first quarter 2002. The Company posted a loss from operations of $10.6 million for the quarter compared with $5.0 million in the first quarter of 2002. Interest expense of $10.1 million for the first quarter decreased 9 percent from the year-earlier period. The loss for the quarter prior to the cumulative effect of an accounting change was $14.0 million, or $0.29 per diluted share, in 2003 compared with $10.5 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, in 2002. During the first quarter 2003, the Corporation recorded a charge of $6.9 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, as the cumulative effect of an accounting change related to the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. The pretax impact for the quarter was $400,000. The first quarter of 2002 was restated to reflect the $11.6 million charge recorded as the cumulative effect of an accounting change related to the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.
Net sales for the Aggregates division were $263.4 million in 2003 compared with $271.2 million for the prior-year quarter. Average sales price at heritage aggregates operations increased 3.3 percent, which was positively influenced by the mix of products sold. Price increases were offset by a 6 percent decline in heritage aggregates shipments, most significantly in the Southwest and Southeast. Heritage aggregates production volume for the first quarter of 2003 declined over 5.3 million tons, or 13 percent, compared with 2002, primarily due to the poor weather conditions coupled with inventory control. Gross margin for the division was 7.4 percent in 2003 compared with 7.7 percent in the year-earlier period. The aggregates product line gross margin increased, while margins in asphalt, ready mixed concrete and road construction declined. Selling, general and administrative costs increased over the prior year principally as a result of increased benefits costs and higher costs related to the Corporations information systems. The divisions loss from operations was $10.4 million for the first quarter, compared with $6.4 million in 2002.
First quarter 2003 net sales for the Magnesia Specialties division were $19.9 million compared with $18.7 million in the year-earlier period. The loss from operations for the division was $0.2 million compared with earnings from operations of $1.4 million in the first quarter 2002. The decline resulted principally from higher energy costs related to natural gas.

Commenting on the results, Stephen P. Zelnak, Jr., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. stated, As previously announced, the first quarter was negatively affected by continued weak economic demand and by extremely poor weather conditions, that restricted both shipments to customers and production operations. The commercial construction market continued to decline while state budget deficit issues and the delay in Congress in passing the fiscal 2003 federal highway authorization affected the level of highway construction spending. Further, while winter weather generally adversely affects first quarter results, particularly at our Midwest, MidAmerica and Northwest locations, unusually poor weather occurred at our operations in the Southwest and Southeast, with the exception of Florida.
Despite operating in an economic downturn, we were pleased with the 3.3 percent average price increase at our heritage aggregates operations. Heritage shipments were down 6 percent with a significant increase in our water transport quarries and a sharp decline in most of our other areas. The 13 percent production decline at heritage locations reflected the poor operating conditions. We were also pleased with the increase of over 100 basis points in our aggregates product line gross margin compared with the prior year. This was the result of the positive impact of pricing, productivity improvements, acquisition/divestiture activity and favorable development of health costs, which overcame low volume, poor operating conditions and high energy cost.
The first quarter was negatively affected by the sharp escalation of energy costs. Diesel fuel, which is used primarily to operate trucks and loaders in quarry production, increased by 68 percent, on an average per gallon basis, compared with the prior-year quarter. The combined cost of oil and natural gas-based products used in our heritage Aggregates and Magnesia Specialties businesses increased $6.2 million for the quarter. This equates to a negative impact on earnings of $0.09 per diluted share. While diesel prices have declined significantly in April, they are still running at a higher-than-average rate when compared with 2002.
The outlook for 2003 remains uncertain. Management continues to focus on productivity improvements and overhead reductions, which are necessary to maximize profitability. However, the duration of the soft economy, with its impact particularly on infrastructure and commercial construction markets, coupled with the absorption of fixed costs as they affect operations, is the primary driver of uncertainty. The impact of budget deficits on states road spending and the volatility of energy prices also continues to be a significant concern. On a positive note, many of our major customers indicate strong work backlogs despite the soft economy. The customers backlogs are influenced by the accumulation of work deferred from as far back as October 2002 because of poor weather conditions in many of our market areas. The timing of these deferred shipments is subject to various events, including customer project schedules and weather. Further, higher-than-anticipated TEA-21 funding levels could have a positive influence on 2003 results in the second half of the year.
Given our current assessment of economic and operating factors, we expect net earnings to fall in the range of $1.85 to $2.20 per diluted share for 2003, excluding the cumulative effect of adopting FAS 143. For the second quarter we expect net earnings to be in the range of $0.70 to $0.80 per diluted share. We continue to believe that the downside risks outweigh the upside potential.

At a time when there has been very little good news for investors, we announced a 20 percent increase in our annual dividends during the quarter. The increased dividend, which will take effect in the second quarter, represents an annual dividend rate of $0.72 per share.
We are also encouraged that the early interest by potential customers in our new structural composite products continues to appear very strong. The Sparta, North Carolina, factory is on schedule to begin production and assembly operations for composite flat panels, bridge decks and composite specialty truck trailers in the fourth quarter of this year. Given the early indications of interest, we are currently assessing the need for additional capacity at the Sparta plant.
The Company will host an online Web simulcast of its first-quarter 2003 earnings conference call later today (April 29, 2003). The live broadcast of Martin Marietta Materials conference call will begin at 2 p.m. Eastern Time today. An online replay will be available approximately two hours following the conclusion of the live broadcast. A link to these events will be available at the Companys Web site: www.martinmarietta.com
For those investors without online web access, the conference call may also be accessed by calling 913-981-5509, confirmation number 324182.

The Corporation assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.

Exhibit 99.2
Additional Information about Non-GAAP Financial Measures Available on the
Corporations Web site
From time to time management may publicly disclose certain non-GAAP financial measures in the course of our financial presentations, earnings releases, earnings conference calls, and otherwise. For these purposes, the SEC defines a non-GAAP financial measure as a numerical measure of historical or future financial performance, financial positions, or cash flows that excludes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that effectively exclude amounts, included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP in financial statements, and vice versa for measures that include amounts, or is subject to adjustments that effectively include amounts, that are excluded from the most directly comparable measure so calculated and presented. For these purposes, GAAP refers to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.
Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by management are provided as additional information to investors in order to provide them with an alternative method for assessing our financial condition and operating results. These measures are not in accordance with, or a substitute for, GAAP, and may be different from or inconsistent with non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.
One such non-GAAP financial measure we may present from time to time is Earnings before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization (EBITDA). EBITDA is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP. Accordingly, it should not be considered as a substitute for net earnings (loss), operating earnings (loss), cash flow provided by operating activities or other income or cash flow data prepared in accordance with GAAP. However, the Corporations management believes that EBITDA may provide additional information with respect to the Corporations ability to meet its future debt service, capital expenditures and working capital requirements. Because EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect net earnings and may vary among companies, the EBITDA presented by Martin Marietta Materials may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Martin Marietta Materials calculates EBITDA as:
Net earnings (loss) before interest expense, income tax expense (benefit) and depreciation, depletion and amortization expense. EBITDA is also before the cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, if applicable. |
The following tables present Martin Marietta Materials calculations of EBITDA for the years 1994 to 2002, quarterly and year-to-date periods in 2002 and 2003 (all dollars in thousands):
