Ward Nye, Chairman, President and CEO of Martin Marietta, stated, “Our Company delivered strong operating and financial performance for the first three months of 2019, including first-quarter records for revenues and EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, and Depreciation and Amortization). Driven by improved shipments, pricing and cost management, we are off to a promising start to what we expect to be another record year for Martin Marietta. Notably, the Building Materials business benefitted from robust pent-up demand as well as modestly improved weather across portions of our geographic footprint, which allowed for an early beginning to the construction season. These encouraging trends, combined with favorable pricing momentum and growing contractor backlogs, reaffirm our confidence in our full-year outlook.

- MORE -

 


 

“Consistent with our expectations, construction activity in our key regions, supported by strengthening public- and private-sector spending, is outpacing the nation as a whole. Infrastructure construction has begun in earnest on several transportation projects in North Carolina, Georgia and Florida following the recent acceleration in public lettings and contract awards in these key states. Additionally, notable employment gains and population growth continue to support private-sector strength in our leading markets. These favorable dynamics bode well for a busy construction season throughout the remainder of the year.”

Mr. Nye concluded, “This year, Martin Marietta celebrates 25 years as a public company. We have established a proven record of value creation and will continue to build upon our success by focusing on price discipline, strategic geographic positioning and prudent capital allocation. We remain committed to the diligent execution of our strategic plan and further enhancement of the world-class attributes of our business – including safety, cost discipline and operational excellence. We believe Martin Marietta is firmly positioned for continued growth and enhanced shareholder value in 2019 and beyond.”

Building Materials Business

First-quarter operating results demonstrate the robust underlying demand that was masked in 2018 by weather, contractor capacity and logistics disruptions. While winter weather traditionally limits the ability of outdoor contractors to perform work, the Company experienced relatively better weather during the first three months of 2019. This allowed contractors to begin addressing backlogs with an earlier-than-normal start to the construction season. The notable exception was in the Company’s second-largest state by revenues, Colorado, which experienced one of its harshest winters on record, delaying the onset of meaningful construction activity.

Aggregates

First-quarter heritage aggregates volume and pricing improved 12.5 percent and 4.0 percent, respectively.  

 

Shipments for the Mid-America Group heritage operations increased 18.4 percent, primarily driven by infrastructure, commercial and residential projects in the Carolinas. Heritage pricing improved 3.1 percent despite unfavorable product mix from increased shipments of lower-priced base stone in 2019.

 

 

Shipments for the Southeast Group heritage operations increased 16.7 percent, reflecting the overall strength of the North Georgia and Florida markets. Heritage pricing improved 6.2 percent.  

 

 

West Group shipments increased 6.3 percent as strong nonresidential construction activity in Texas more than offset weather-impacted Colorado shipments. Product and geographic mix limited West Group pricing growth to 2.7 percent.

Inclusive of acquired operations, aggregates volume and pricing improved 24.2 percent and 2.3 percent, respectively. Acquired operations shipped 3.5 million tons at selling prices that are approximately 15 percent below the Company’s average.  

Martin Marietta’s first-quarter heritage aggregates shipments by end use are as follows (all comparisons are versus the prior-year quarter):

Infrastructure Market

 

 

Aggregates shipments to the infrastructure market increased 2 percent as modestly improved weather, particularly in the Southeast, allowed contractors to advance transportation-related projects earlier in the construction season. Following more than a decade of underinvestment, management remains confident that infrastructure demand is poised for meaningful growth. Funding provided by the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act), combined with numerous state and local transportation initiatives, has resulted in an acceleration in lettings and contract awards in key states, including Texas, Colorado, North Carolina, Georgia and Florida. For the quarter, the infrastructure market represented 33 percent of aggregates shipments, which is below the Company’s most recent ten-year average of 46 percent but consistent with first-quarter historical trends.

Nonresidential Market

 

 

Aggregates shipments to the nonresidential market increased 33 percent, driven by both commercial and heavy industrial construction activity. The Company continued to benefit from robust distribution center, warehouse, data center and wind turbine projects in key geographies, including Texas, the Carolinas, Georgia and Iowa. The nonresidential market represented 37 percent of first-quarter aggregates shipments.    

Residential Market

 

 

Aggregates shipments to the residential market increased 8 percent, driven by weather-deferred homebuilding activity in the Carolinas, Georgia and Florida. Despite the recent slowdown in housing unit starts at the national level, the residential construction outlook across the Company’s geographic footprint remains positive for both single- and multi-family housing, driven by favorable demographics, job growth, land availability, steady interest rates and efficient permitting. On a national level, housing starts remain below the 50-year annual average of 1.5 million despite notable population gains. The residential market accounted for 23 percent of first-quarter aggregates shipments.

ChemRock/Rail Market

 

 

The ChemRock/Rail market accounted for the remaining 7 percent of first-quarter aggregates shipments.  Volumes to this sector decreased 9 percent, driven by reduced agricultural lime shipments from a depressed farm economy. Additionally, ballast shipments declined due to lower maintenance spending by western Class I railroads.

Aggregates product gross margin increased 550 basis points to 18.0 percent, reflecting improved operating leverage from increased shipment and production levels.  

Cement

Cement shipments and pricing increased 7.3 percent and 3.8 percent, respectively, as these operations benefitted from solid underlying demand in Texas, a new Houston-area sales yard and enhanced product line. Extended maintenance outages, including the acceleration of maintenance activities originally planned for later in the year, and higher transportation costs contributed to the 1,270-basis-point reduction in product gross margin to 13.9 percent.  

Downstream businesses

Ready mixed concrete shipments decreased 3.8 percent, driven by cold and wet winter weather in Colorado.  Overall, ready mixed concrete prices improved 0.5 percent for the quarter, led by a 3.0 percent increase in Colorado.  Restructuring initiatives implemented in 2018 have improved profitability for the Southwest ready mixed concrete business despite relatively flat shipments.  Colorado asphalt shipments declined while pricing improved 3.9 percent.  


- MORE -

 


 

 

Magnesia Specialties Business

Magnesia Specialties product revenues increased 6.6 percent to a record $69.2 million as the business continued to benefit from strong domestic steel production and increased global demand for magnesia chemical products.  Product gross margin was relatively flat at 38.5 percent as pricing gains and production efficiencies were offset by higher costs for supplies and contract services.       

Consolidated

Other operating income, net, included the reversal of a $4.2 million purchase accounting accrual related to the Texas Industries, Inc. acquisition.

The Company recorded a discrete income tax benefit of $13.2 million related to a change in tax election for an acquired entity.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash provided by operating activities was $117.9 million in 2019 compared with $105.0 million in 2018.

Cash paid for property, plant and equipment additions during the first quarter was $130.1 million.  Capital expenditures for the full year are expected to range from $350 million to $400 million as the Company continues to prudently deploy capital into the business.

At March 31, 2019, the Company’s ratio of consolidated net debt-to-consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the applicable credit agreement, for the trailing twelve months was 2.7 times.  

Commitment to Enhance Long-Term Shareholder Value

Martin Marietta is dedicated to disciplined capital allocation that preserves the Company’s financial flexibility and further enhances shareholder value. The Company’s capital allocation priorities remain unchanged and include value-enhancing acquisitions that promote the successful execution of the Company’s strategic growth plan, organic capital investment, and the return of cash to shareholders through a meaningful and sustainable dividend and share repurchases.

The Company has returned $1.4 billion to shareholders in the form of dividend payments and share repurchases since announcing a 20 million share repurchase authorization in February 2015. As of March 31, 2019, 14.1 million shares remained under the current repurchase authorization and 62.5 million shares of Martin Marietta common stock were outstanding.

Full-Year Outlook

Martin Marietta remains confident in its previously announced full-year outlook. The Company’s geographic footprint has attractive underlying market fundamentals, including notable employment gains, population growth and superior state fiscal health – all attributes promoting steady and sustainable construction growth.  Supported by robust underlying demand and third-party forecasts, Martin Marietta believes the current construction cycle will continue for the foreseeable future and expand further this year for each of the Company’s three primary construction end-use markets. Notably:

 

Infrastructure construction, particularly for aggregates-intensive highways and streets, should benefit from recent accelerations in state lettings and contract awards in key Martin Marietta states, continued FAST Act funding, and regulatory reform that allows for reduced permitting time for large projects. Importantly, states will continue to play an expanded role in infrastructure investment.  Incremental funding at the state and local levels, through bond issuances, toll roads and tax initiatives, should grow at faster near-term rates than federal funding. Martin Marietta’s top ten states – Texas, Colorado, North Carolina, Georgia, Iowa, Florida, South Carolina, Indiana, Maryland and Nebraska – accounted for 85 percent of total Building Materials’ revenues in 2018 and have all introduced incremental transportation funding measures within the last five years.  Third-party forecasts also predict increased infrastructure investment this year and beyond.

 

Nonresidential construction should increase in both the commercial and heavy industrial sectors for the next several years across many of the Company’s key markets. Both the Architectural Billings Index and Dodge Momentum Index indicate healthy commercial construction activity throughout the year. Continued federal regulatory approvals should notably contribute to increased heavy building materials consumption from the next wave of large energy-sector projects, particularly along the Gulf Coast. Construction activity for these projects is expected to begin in earnest this year and continue for several years thereafter.  

 

Residential construction should continue to grow within Martin Marietta’s geographic footprint, particularly as mortgage rates have stabilized and homebuilders are beginning to address the need for more affordable homes. The Company’s leading positions in southeastern and southwestern states offer superior opportunities for gains in both multi- and single-family housing, driven by a multitude of factors, such as available land, an overall business-friendly environment and fewer regulatory barriers. The Company believes that permits represent the best indicator of future housing construction. Martin Marietta’s top ten states outpaced the nation in housing unit permit growth for the trailing twelve months ended March 2019 for all three residential categories: total, multi-family and single-family. Continued strength in residential construction supports future infrastructure and nonresidential activity.

Based on current trends and expectations, management has reaffirmed its full-year guidance as follows:  

 

Aggregates shipments by end-use market compared with 2018 levels are as follows:

 

Infrastructure shipments to increase in the high-single digits.

 

Nonresidential shipments to increase in the mid- to high-single digits.

 

Residential shipments to increase in the mid-single digits.

 

ChemRock/Rail shipments to be up slightly.

Investors are cautioned that all statements in this press release 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, give the investor 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”, “expect”, “should”, “believe”, “will”, and other words of similar meaning in connection with future events or future operating or financial performance.  Any or all of our 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 press release (including the outlook) include, but are not limited to: the performance of the United States economy; shipment declines resulting from economic events beyond the Company’s control; a widespread decline in aggregates pricing, including a decline in aggregates 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 infrastructure construction; the level and timing of federal, state or local transportation or infrastructure projects funding, most particularly in Texas, Colorado, North Carolina, Georgia, Iowa and Maryland; the United States Congress’ inability to reach agreement among themselves or with the current 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; a decline in energy-related construction activity  resulting from a sustained period of low global oil prices or changes in oil production patterns in response to this decline, particularly in Texas; a slowdown in residential construction recovery; unfavorable weather conditions, particularly Atlantic Ocean and Gulf Coast hurricane activity, 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; the volatility of fuel costs, particularly diesel fuel, and the impact on the cost, or the availability generally, of other consumables, namely steel, explosives, tires and conveyor belts, and with respect to the Company’s Magnesia Specialties business, natural gas; continued increases in the cost of other repair and supply parts; construction labor shortages and/or supply‐chain challenges; unexpected equipment failures, unscheduled maintenance, industrial accident or other prolonged and/or significant disruption to production facilities; increasing governmental regulation, including environmental laws; transportation availability or a sustained reduction in capital investment by the railroads, notably the availability of railcars, locomotive power and the condition of rail infrastructure to move trains to supply the Company’s Texas, Colorado, Florida, North Carolina and the Gulf Coast markets, including the movement of essential dolomitic lime for magnesia chemicals to the Company’s plant in Manistee, Michigan and its customers; increased transportation costs, including increases from higher or fluctuating passed-through energy costs or fuel surcharges, and other costs to comply with tightening regulations, as well as higher volumes of rail and water shipments; availability of trucks and licensed drivers for transport of the Company’s materials; availability and cost of construction equipment in the United States; weakening in the steel industry markets served by the Company’s dolomitic lime products;  a trade dispute with one or more nations impacting the U.S. economy, including the impact of tariffs on the steel industry; unplanned changes in costs or realignment of customers that introduce volatility to earnings, including that of the Magnesia Specialties business that is running at capacity; proper functioning of information technology and automated operating systems to manage or support operations; inflation and its effect on both production and interest costs; the concentration of customers in construction markets and the increased risk of potential losses on customer receivables; the impact of the level of demand in the Company’s end-use markets, production levels and management of production costs on the operating leverage and therefore profitability of the Company;  the possibility that the expected synergies from acquisitions will not be realized or will not be realized within the expected time period, including achieving anticipated profitability to maintain compliance with the Company’s leverage ratio debt covenant; changes in tax laws, the interpretation of such laws and/or administrative practices that would increase the Company’s tax rate;  violation of the Company’s debt covenant if price and/or volumes return to previous levels of instability; continued downward pressure on the Company’s common stock price and its impact on goodwill impairment evaluations; reduction of the Company’s credit rating to non-investment grade; and other risk factors listed from time to time found in the Company’s filings with the SEC.  

You should consider these forward-looking statements in light of risk factors discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and other periodic filings made with the SEC.  All of our forward-looking statements should be considered in light of these factors.  In addition, other risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we consider immaterial could affect the accuracy of our forward-looking statements, or adversely affect or be material to the Company.  The Company assumes no obligation to update any such forward-looking statements.
