Organization

Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. (the “Corporation” or “Martin Marietta”) is engaged principally in the construction aggregates business. The aggregates product line accounted for 58% of 2014 consolidated net sales and includes crushed stone, sand and gravel, and is used for construction of highways and other infrastructure projects, and in the nonresidential and residential construction industries. Aggregates products are also used in the railroad, agricultural, utility and environmental industries. These aggregates products, along with the Corporation’s aggregates-related downstream product lines, which accounted for 25% of 2014 consolidated net sales and include asphalt products, ready mixed concrete and road paving construction services, are sold and shipped from a network of more than 400 quarries, distribution facilities and plants to customers in 32 states, Canada, the Bahamas and the Caribbean Islands. The aggregates and aggregates-related downstream product lines are reported collectively as the “Aggregates business”.

The Corporation currently conducts the Aggregates business through three reportable segments: the Mid-America Group, the Southeast Group and the West Group.

The cement business produces Portland and specialty cements, such as masonry and oil well cements. Similar to the Aggregates business, cement is used in infrastructure projects, nonresidential and residential construction, and the railroad, agricultural, utility and environmental industries. The high calcium limestone reserves used as a raw material are a part of owned property adjacent to each of the plants. The Corporation also operates cement terminals, a packaging facility and cement grinding facility at the Crestmore plant near Riverside, California.

The Corporation has a Magnesia Specialties segment with manufacturing facilities in Manistee, Michigan and Woodville, Ohio. The Magnesia Specialties segment, which accounted for 9% of 2014 consolidated net sales, produces magnesia-based chemicals products used in industrial, agricultural and environmental applications and dolomitic lime sold primarily to customers in the steel industry.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Corporation have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles 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 Corporation has continued to follow the accounting policies set forth in the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. In the opinion of management, the interim consolidated financial information provided herein reflects all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the interim periods. The consolidated results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2015 are not indicative of the results expected for other interim periods or the full year. The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2014 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles 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 Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Revenue Recognition Standard

The FASB issued an accounting standard update that amends the accounting guidance on revenue recognition. The new standard intends to provide a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues, improve comparability of revenue recognition practices and improve disclosure requirements. The new standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and can be applied on a full retrospective or modified retrospective approach. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact of the provisions of the new standard, and at this time does not expect the impact to be material to its consolidated results of operations.

Consolidated Comprehensive Earnings/Loss and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss

Consolidated comprehensive earnings/loss for the Corporation consist of consolidated net earnings or loss; adjustments for the funded status of pension and postretirement benefit plans; foreign currency translation adjustments; and the amortization of the value of terminated forward starting interest rate swap agreements into interest expense, and are presented in the Corporation’s consolidated statements of earnings and comprehensive earnings.

Earnings per Common Share

The numerator for basic and diluted earnings (loss) per common share is net earnings/loss attributable to Martin Marietta reduced by dividends and undistributed earnings attributable to the Corporation’s unvested restricted stock awards and incentive stock awards. If there is a net loss, no amount of the undistributed loss is attributed to unvested participating securities. 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 are 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 Corporation’s Board of Directors under certain stock-based compensation arrangements if the conversion is dilutive. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the diluted per-share computations reflect a change in the number of common shares outstanding to include the number of additional shares that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive common shares had been issued.

The Corporation, through a wholly-owned special purpose subsidiary, has a $250,000,000 trade receivable securitization facility (the “Trade Receivable Facility”), which matures on September 30, 2016. The Trade Receivable Facility, with SunTrust Bank, Regions Bank, PNC Bank, N.A. and certain other lenders that may become a party to the facility from time to time, is backed by eligible trade receivables, as defined, of $450,791,000, $369,575,000 and $311,792,000 at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively. These receivables are originated by the Corporation and then sold to the wholly-owned special purpose subsidiary by the Corporation. The Corporation 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 one-month LIBOR plus 0.7% and are limited to the lesser of the facility limit or the borrowing base, as defined, of $377,688,000, $313,428,000 and $258,787,000 at June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, respectively. The Trade Receivable Facility contains a cross-default provision to the Corporation’s other debt agreements.

5.	Long-Term Debt (continued)

The Corporation’s Credit Agreement, which provides a $250,000,000 senior unsecured term loan (the “Term Loan Facility”) and a $350,000,000 five-year senior unsecured revolving facility (the “Revolving Facility”), requires the Corporation’s ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization (“EBITDA”), as defined by the Credit Agreement, for the trailing twelve months (the “Ratio”) to not exceed 3.50x as of the end of any fiscal quarter, provided that the Corporation may exclude from the Ratio debt incurred in connection with certain acquisitions for a period of 180 days so long as the Corporation, as a consequence of such specified acquisition, does not have its rating on long-term unsecured debt fall below BBB by Standard & Poor’s or Baa2 by Moody’s and the Ratio calculated without such exclusion does not exceed 3.75x. Additionally, if no amounts are outstanding under both the Revolving Facility and the Trade Receivable Facility, consolidated debt, including debt for which the Corporation is a co-borrower, may be reduced by the Corporation’s unrestricted cash and cash equivalents in excess of $50,000,000, such reduction not to exceed $200,000,000, for purposes of the covenant calculation.

In 2014, the Corporation amended the Credit Agreement to ensure the impact of the business combination with TXI does not impair liquidity available under the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Facility. The amendment adjusts consolidated EBITDA to add back fees, costs or expenses relating to the TXI business combination incurred on or prior to the closing of the combination not to exceed $95,000,000; any integration or similar costs or expenses related to the TXI business combination incurred in any period prior to the second anniversary of the closing of the TXI business combination not to exceed $70,000,000; and any make-whole fees incurred in connection with the redemption of TXI’s 9.25% senior notes due 2020. The Corporation was in compliance with this Ratio at June 30, 2015.

Available borrowings under the Revolving Facility are reduced by any outstanding letters of credit issued by the Corporation under the Revolving Facility. At June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, the Corporation had $2,507,000 of outstanding letters of credit issued under the Revolving Facility.

Accumulated other comprehensive loss includes the unamortized value of terminated forward starting interest rate swap agreements. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the Corporation recognized $317,000 and $624,000, respectively, as additional interest expense. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, the Corporation recognized $295,000 and $583,000, respectively, as additional interest expense. The ongoing amortization of the terminated value of the forward starting interest rate swap agreements will increase annual interest expense by approximately $1,200,000 until the maturity of the 6.6% Senior Notes in 2018.

6.	Financial Instruments

The Corporation’s financial instruments include cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable, bank overdraft, accounts payable, publicly-registered long-term notes, debentures and other long-term debt.

Cash equivalents are placed primarily in money market funds, money market demand deposit accounts and Eurodollar time deposits. The Corporation’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.

6.	Financial Instruments (continued)

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, Colorado, North Carolina, Iowa and Georgia). The estimated fair values of accounts receivable approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term nature of the receivables.

Notes receivable are primarily promissory notes with customers and are not publicly traded. Management estimates that the fair value of notes receivable approximates the carrying amount. The estimated fair values of notes receivable approximate their carrying amounts due to the short-term nature of the receivables.

The bank overdraft represents amounts to be funded to financial institutions for checks that have cleared the bank. The estimated fair value of the bank overdraft approximates its carrying value due to the short-term nature of the overdraft.

Accounts payable represent amounts owed to suppliers and vendors. The estimated fair value of accounts payable approximates its carrying amount due to the short-term nature of the payables.

The carrying values and fair values of the Corporation’s long-term debt were $1,658,001,000 and $1,729,511,000, respectively, at June 30, 2015; $1,585,395,000 and $1,680,584,000, respectively, at December 31, 2014; and $1,084,801,000 and $1,168,302,000, respectively, at June 30, 2014. The estimated fair value of the publicly-registered long-term notes was estimated based on Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy using quoted market prices. The fair value of the Notes was based on Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy using quoted market prices for similar debt instruments. The estimated fair value of other borrowings, which primarily represents variable-rate debt, approximates its carrying amount as the interest rates reset periodically.

7.	Income Taxes

	2015			2014
Estimated effective income tax rate:
Continuing operations		30.2	%		29.8	%
Discontinued operations		—			26.4	%
Consolidated overall		30.2	%		29.8	%

The Corporation’s effective income tax rate reflects the effect of federal and state income taxes and the impact of differences in book and tax accounting arising from the net permanent benefits associated with the statutory depletion deduction for mineral reserves and the domestic production deduction. The effective income tax rate for discontinued operations reflect the tax effects of individual operations’ transactions and are not indicative of the Corporation’s overall effective income tax rate.

The Corporation records interest accrued in relation to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. Penalties, if incurred, are recorded as operating expenses in the consolidated statements of earnings and comprehensive earnings.

9.	Commitments and Contingencies

Legal and Administrative Proceedings

The Corporation is engaged in certain legal and administrative proceedings incidental to its normal business activities. In the opinion of management and counsel, based upon currently-available facts, it is remote that the ultimate outcome of any litigation and other proceedings, including those pertaining to environmental matters, relating to the Corporation and its subsidiaries, will have a material adverse effect on the overall results of the Corporation’s operations, its cash flows or its financial position.

Borrowing Arrangements with Affiliate

The Corporation is a co-borrower with an unconsolidated affiliate for a $25,000,000 revolving line of credit agreement with BB&T Bank. The affiliate has agreed to reimburse and indemnify the Corporation for any payments and expenses the Corporation may incur from this agreement. The Corporation holds a lien on the affiliate’s membership interest in a joint venture as collateral for payment under the revolving line of credit.

In 2013, the Corporation loaned $3,402,000 to this unconsolidated affiliate to repay in full the outstanding balance of the affiliate’s loan with Bank of America, N.A. in 2013 and entered into a loan agreement with the affiliate for monthly repayment of principal and interest of that loan amount. The loan was repaid in full during first quarter 2015. As of December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014, the amounts due from the affiliate related to this loan was $1,808,000 and $2,455,000, respectively.

In addition, the Corporation has a $6,000,000 outstanding loan due from this unconsolidated affiliate as of June 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014.

Employees

Approximately 12% of the Corporation’s employees are represented by a labor union. All such employees are hourly employees. The Corporation maintains collective bargaining agreements relating to the union employees with the Aggregates business, Cement and Magnesia Specialties segments. For the Cement segment located in California and Texas, 100% of its hourly employees at the Oro Grande cement plant and Crestmore clinker grinding facility, both located in California, are represented by labor unions. The Oro Grande collective bargaining agreement expires June 2016, and the Crestmore collective bargaining agreement expires in August 2016. For the Magnesia Specialties segment located in Manistee, Michigan and Woodville, Ohio, 100% of its hourly employees are represented by labor unions. The Manistee collective bargaining agreement expires in August 2019, and the Woodville collective bargaining agreement expires in May 2018.

10.	Business Segments

The Aggregates business contains three reportable business segments: Mid-America Group, Southeast Group and West Group. The Corporation also has Cement and Magnesia Specialties segments. Corporate loss from operations primarily includes depreciation on capitalized interest, expenses for certain corporate administrative functions, business development and integration expenses, unallocated corporate expenses and other nonrecurring and/or non-operational adjustments. Intersegment sales represent net sales from one segment to another segment.

OVERVIEW

Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. (the “Corporation” or “Martin Marietta”) is a leading supplier of aggregates products (crushed stone, sand and gravel) and heavy building materials for the construction industry, including infrastructure, nonresidential, residential, railroad ballast, agricultural and chemical grade stone used in environmental applications. The Corporation’s annual consolidated net sales and operating earnings are predominately derived from its Aggregates business, which mines, processes and sells granite, limestone, sand, gravel and other aggregates-related downstream business, including asphalt, ready mixed concrete and road paving construction services for use in all sectors of the public infrastructure, environmental industries, nonresidential and residential construction industries, as well as agriculture, railroad ballast, chemical, utility and other uses. The Aggregates business shipped and delivered aggregates, asphalt products and ready mixed concrete from a network of more than 400 quarries, underground mines, distribution facilities and plants to customers in 32 states, Canada, the Bahamas and the Caribbean Islands. The Aggregates business’ products are used primarily by commercial customers principally in domestic construction of highways and other infrastructure projects and for nonresidential and residential building development. Aggregates products are also used in the railroad, agricultural, utility and environmental industries.

The Cement business produces Portland and specialty cements, such as masonry and oil well cements. Similar to the Aggregates business, cement is used in infrastructure projects, nonresidential and residential construction, and the railroad, agricultural, utility and environmental industries. The production facilities are located in Midlothian, Texas, south of Dallas/Fort Worth; Hunter, Texas, between Austin and San Antonio; and Oro Grande, California, near Los Angeles. The limestone reserves used as a raw material are located on property, owned by the Corporation, adjacent to each of the plants. The Corporation also operates a cement terminal and packaging facility at the Crestmore plant near Riverside, California, and operates its Portland cement grinding facility on an as-needed basis. The cement facilities currently have total annual capacity of 6.6 million tons. In addition to the manufacturing and packaging facilities, the Corporation operates eight cement distribution terminals. The corporation has signed a sale agreement to divest of the Oro Grande, California facility. Closing is expected by September 30, 2015.

The Corporation also has a Magnesia Specialties segment that produces magnesia-based chemicals products used in industrial, agricultural and environmental applications and dolomitic lime sold primarily to customers in the steel industry.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Corporation outlined its critical accounting policies in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. There were no changes to the Corporation’s critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2015.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Except as indicated, the comparative analysis in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations reflects results from continuing operations and is based on net sales and cost of sales. Gross margin and operating margin calculated as percentages of total revenues represent the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). However, gross margin as a percentage of net sales and operating margin as a percentage of net sales represent non-GAAP measures. The Corporation presents these ratios calculated based on net sales, as it is consistent with the basis by which management reviews the Corporation’s operating results. Further, management believes it is consistent with the basis by which investors analyze the Corporation’s operating results given that freight and delivery revenues and costs represent pass-throughs and have no profit mark-up. The following tables present the calculations of gross margin and operating margin for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations of the ratios as percentages of total revenues to percentages of net sales.

Second-quarter results reflect continued strong performance. Among other things, each heritage aggregates business reportable segment significantly improved gross profits, generating an incremental gross margin contribution in line with, or exceeding, the Corporation’s stated objectives. This result was achieved despite historic levels of rainfall throughout the United States, and notably in Texas. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the United States experienced the second wettest second quarter in more than a century. The NOAA further indicated that Texas reported its wettest second quarter and first six months of the year for the 121 years this data has been tracked. These highly unusual factors resulted in nearly $100 million in deferred net sales across all product lines

which lowered gross profit by an estimated $27 million. Additionally, precipitation reduced production and operating leverage, which negatively affected gross profit by an estimated additional $8 million to $13 million. Nevertheless, strong pricing, operational excellence and management’s stringent cost discipline, coupled with continued slow-but-steady economic recovery in the southeastern United States, contributed to a 100-basis-point expansion of consolidated gross margin (excluding freight and delivery fees).

The average per-ton selling price for the heritage aggregates product line was $11.83 and $11.00 for the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and the average per-ton selling price for the acquired aggregates product line was $13.52 for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The acquired aggregates product line selling price reflects the impact of higher priced sand and gravel, as well as freight for tons sold through rail yards, which combined account for over 70% of shipments.

Heritage aggregates product line shipments increased 0.7%, excluding shipments from the third-quarter 2014 divestiture of three operations from the prior-year quarter. The divestiture included an Oklahoma quarry and two Dallas, Texas rail-located distribution yards and was required by the Department of Justice in connection with the closing of the TXI acquisition. Shipments from these divestitures continue to be reported in heritage volumes in the prior-year quarter. Aggregates product line shipments in the Southeast Group increased 6.0%, and the Mid-America Group achieved an increase of 2.3%. Wet weather had the most significant impact in the West Group, where volumes decreased 3.2%, excluding 998,000 tons from the divested operations from the prior-year quarter. The reported variance for the West Group was a 9.4% decline, which reflects an estimated 2,198,000 tons of shipments deferred due to rainfall. Iowa also experienced significant precipitation during the second quarter which deferred an estimated 500,000 tons of shipments.

Heritage aggregates product line shipments to the infrastructure market comprised 43% of quarterly volumes and decreased 4%. The Mid-America and Southeast Group each achieved an increase of 2%, which was offset by the impact of rainfall in the West Group. In addition to Texas, major project activity is accelerating in North Carolina, Georgia and Florida. Infrastructure investments are being driven by state initiatives and public private partnerships while federal funding continues to be provided under a continuing resolution. The provisions of the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century, or MAP-21, have been extended through October 29, 2015. Management continues to anticipate the U.S. Congress working towards passage of a new multi-year bill later this year.

The nonresidential market represented 32% of quarterly heritage aggregates product line shipments and decreased 3%. Light nonresidential, which includes the commercial sector, increased 23% and was offset by a decline in heavy nonresidential, which includes the industrial and energy sectors. Activity varies significantly by state, with growth in nonresidential starts for the last twelve months strongest in Texas; however, weather constrained activity during the second quarter. Louisiana, Florida and Georgia have also reported significant increases in nonresidential projects. The overall growth in light nonresidential shipments illustrates economic diversity and the ability of other nonresidential projects to replace energy-related shipments currently displaced by volatile oil prices. Notwithstanding, the Corporation continues to expect energy-related activity to remain strong, supported by more than $100 billion of planned projects along the Gulf Coast, including a significant portion in Texas.

The residential end-use market accounted for 16% of quarterly heritage aggregates product line shipments, and volumes within this market increased 4%. Nationally, residential starts are up 8% for the trailing-12 months through June 2015. Florida and Georgia achieved double-digit growth and, along with Texas, were each ranked in the top five states for the

same period. The ChemRock/Rail market accounted for the remaining 9% of heritage aggregates product line volumes. Volumes to this end use decreased slightly, primarily related to excessive rainfall in Colorado and Iowa.

Heritage aggregates product line pricing grew in all reportable groups, led by the 10.7% increase in the West Group. Improvement was notable in South Texas and Colorado. The Mid-America Group and Southeast Group reported increases of 5.7% and 2.4%, respectively. The Corporation announced various mid-year price increases in all divisions of its Aggregates business and is realizing increased pricing across all of its segments.

The particularly wet weather throughout several of the Corporation’s operating areas not only affected sales, but also adversely affected aggregates product line production and resulted in lower operating leverage. As a result, total production cost per ton shipped increased 3%. Lower energy costs continue to benefit the cost structure.

The heritage aggregates product line leveraged a 7.6% increase in average selling price to expand its gross margin (excluding freight and delivery revenues) 540 basis points. The legacy TXI aggregates product line operations experienced significant amounts of rainfall that negatively affected shipments and margins. In total, acquired aggregates product line operations, which include legacy TXI quarries and two small acquisitions completed during the first quarter, had net sales of $36.2 million and a gross margin (excluding freight and delivery revenues) of 21.7%.

The Corporation’s aggregates-related downstream product lines include asphalt, ready mixed concrete and road paving businesses in Arkansas, Colorado, Texas and Wyoming. Average selling prices by product line for the Corporation’s aggregates-related downstream product lines are as follows:

	Three Months Ended

Unit shipments by product line for the Corporation’s aggregates-related downstream product lines are as follows:

	Three Months Ended
	June 30,
	2015		2014
Asphalt Product Line (in thousands):
Tons to external customers		356		458
Internal tons used in road paving business		456		492
Total asphalt tons		812		950
Ready Mixed Concrete (in thousands of cubic yards):
Heritage		498		552
Acquisitions⁽⁴⁾		1,115		—
Total cubic yards		1,613		552

⁽⁴⁾	Ready mixed operations acquired by Martin Marietta on July 1, 2014. For comparative purposes, for the three months ended June 30, 2014, TXI shipped 1,285,000 cubic yards of ready mixed concrete.

Management estimates rain reduced ready mixed concrete shipments by 454,000 cubic yards, of which 371,000 cubic yards was attributable to ready mix locations in Texas. The heritage ready mixed concrete product line reported pricing improvement of 10.1%.

The heritage ready mixed concrete product line reported a 10% increase in average selling price. However, weather-driven lower shipments limited the improvement in gross margin (excluding freight and delivery revenues) to 50 basis points. For the quarter, the legacy TXI ready mixed concrete operations contributed $98 million of net sales.

As illustrated in the second quarter of 2015, the Aggregates business is significantly affected by erratic weather patterns, seasonal changes and other weather-related conditions. Production and shipment levels for aggregates, asphalt, ready mixed concrete and road paving materials correlate with general construction activity levels, most of which occurs in the spring, summer and fall. Thus, production and shipment levels vary by quarter. Operations concentrated in the northern and midwestern United States generally experience more severe winter weather conditions than operations in the southeast and southwest. Excessive rainfall, and conversely excessive drought, can also jeopardize shipments, production and profitability in all markets served by the Corporation. Because of the potentially significant impact of weather on the Corporation’s operations, current period and year to date results are not indicative of expected performance for other interim periods or the full year. Depending on the timing and extent of any weather disruptions, shipments may be delayed to later in a year or deferred until the following year.

Cement Business

The Cement business is benefitting from continued strength in Texas markets, where demand exceeds local supply. The Portland Cement Association, or PCA, forecasts continued favorable supply/demand imbalance in Texas over the next several years. Further, the PCA currently forecasts growth each year through 2019. For the quarter, the business generated $100.4 million of net sales and $30.4 million of gross profit. The business announced a price increase

effective April 1, 2015. However, there is a lag time before the full impact is realized. Plant utilization varies between 75% and 85% for plants in Texas and 70% and 75% in California. The business incurred $5.9 million in planned cement kiln shutdown costs during the second quarter. Shutdown costs are expected to be heaviest in the fourth quarter.

Cement shipments for the three months ended June 30, 2015 were (tons in thousands):

Tons to external customers			994
Internal tons used in other product lines			209
Total cement tons			1,203

Similar to the aggregates and ready mixed concrete product lines, the cement business estimated 215,000 tons of shipments were deferred to future periods due to the unseasonably wet weather.

Average selling price per-ton for the cement operations for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was $98.86. For comparative purposes, the average selling price per-ton for the three months ended June 30, 2014, a period prior to the Corporation’s ownership of these operations, was $84.71.

Magnesia Specialties Business

Magnesia Specialties continued to deliver strong performance and generated second-quarter net sales of $60.5 million and a gross margin (excluding freight and delivery revenues) of 35.1%. Net sales reflect lower domestic steel production, which is down almost 8% year-to-date versus the comparable period of 2014. Second-quarter earnings from operations were $18.8 million compared with $21.0 million, with the decrease primarily driven by maintenance costs in 2015.

Consolidated Operating Results

Consolidated SG&A was 6.7% of net sales compared with 6.1% in the prior-year quarter. The increase reflects the impact of approximately $110 million of net sales delayed to later in the year and higher pension expenses. The Corporation incurred acquisition-related expenses of $2.1 million, which is in line with the expected run rate for the next few quarters. Earnings from operations for the quarter were $137.0 million compared with $96.2 million in the prior-year period.

Excluding discrete events, the 2015 estimated effective income tax rate for the year-to-date period was 31%, consistent with annual guidance. For the year, the Corporation expects to utilize allowable federal net operating loss carryforwards of $363 million, which were acquired with TXI.

The consolidated heritage gross margin (excluding freight and delivery revenues) for the quarter was 26.0%, a 350-basis-point improvement compared with the prior-year quarter.

Consolidated SG&A was 6.7% of net sales compared with 6.1% in the prior-year quarter. The increase reflects the impact of weather-deferred net sales and higher pension expenses. The Corporation incurred acquisition-related expenses of $2.1 million, which is in line with the expected run rate for the next few quarters. Earnings from operations for the quarter were $137.0 million compared with $96.2 million in the prior-year quarter.

Among other items, other operating income and expenses, net, includes gains and losses on the sale of assets; recoveries and writeoffs related to customer accounts receivable; rental, royalty and services income; accretion expense, depreciation expense and gains and losses related to asset retirement obligations. For the second quarter, consolidated other operating income and expenses, net, was an expense of $4.3 million in 2015 and income of
$2.5 million in 2014. Second quarter 2015 reflects a higher writeoff of customer accounts receivable and lower gains on the disposal of fixed assets. The 10-year average of annual accounts receivable writeoffs has been $2 million. During the quarter ended June 30, 2015, the Corporation reserved two large accounts and wrote-off a customer account who declared bankruptcy, collectively totaling $3.2 million. Conversely, second quarter 2014 provided bad debt recoveries of $0.6 million.

Other nonoperating income and expenses, net, includes foreign currency translation gains and losses, interest and other miscellaneous income and equity adjustments for nonconsolidated affiliates. The $2.7 million increase in other nonoperating income, net, reflects higher earnings from nonconsolidated companies compared with 2014, coupled with life insurance proceeds.

Significant items for the six months ended June 30, 2015 (unless noted, all comparisons are versus the prior-year period):

·	Earnings per diluted share of $1.30 compared with $0.81 (which includes a $0.20 per diluted share charge for business development and acquisition integration expenses related to the business combination with TXI)

Consolidated SG&A expenses were 7.2% of net sales, flat compared with the prior-year period.

For the first six months, consolidated other operating income and expenses, net, was an expense of $1.9 million in 2015 compared with income of $4.8 million in 2014, due in part to higher customer accounts receivable writeoffs in 2015 and higher gains on the disposal of assets in 2014. The 10-year average of annual accounts receivable writeoffs has been $2 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Corporation reserved two large accounts and wrote-off a customer account who declared bankruptcy, collectively totaling $4.0 million. Conversely, the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Corporation had bad debt recoveries of $0.6 million.

In addition to other offsetting amounts, other nonoperating income and expenses, net, are comprised generally of interest income and net equity earnings from nonconsolidated investments. Consolidated other nonoperating income and expenses, net, for the six months ended June 30 was income of $2.1 million in 2015 compared with expense of $3.2 million in 2014, primarily driven by increased income from nonconsolidated affiliates.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was $127.1 million compared with $70.4 million for the same period in 2014. The increase was primarily attributable to higher earnings before depreciation, depletion and amortization expense, partially offset by increased cash payments in 2015 for 2014 taxes that were ineligible for NOL utilization. Operating cash flow is primarily derived from consolidated net earnings before deducting depreciation, depletion and amortization, and the impact of changes in working capital. Depreciation, depletion and amortization were as follows:

	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
	2015		2014
	(Dollars in Thousands)
Depreciation	$	119,807	$	80,952
Depletion		6,452		2,696
Amortization		8,699		2,499
	$	134,958	$	86,147

The increase in depreciation, depletion and amortization expense is attributable to the acquired property, plant and equipment and other intangible assets from business combinations, primarily TXI. Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense for the acquired businesses was $44.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2015.

The seasonal nature of the construction aggregates business impacts quarterly operating cash flow when compared with the full year. Full-year 2014 net cash provided by operating activities was $381.7 million compared with $70.4 million for the first six months of 2014. For the year, the Corporation expects to utilize allowable federal net operating loss carryforwards of $363 million acquired with TXI.

During the first six months ended June 30, 2015, the Corporation invested $128.0 million of capital into its business. Full-year capital spending is expected to be approximately $330 million. Comparable full-year capital expenditures were $232.2 million in 2014, including $80 million for the Medina Rock and Rail (“Medina”) capital project. With a budgeted cost of nearly $160 million, the Medina project is the largest capital expansion project in the Corporation’s history. The project, located outside of San Antonio, consists of building a rail-connected limestone aggregates processing facility with the capability of producing in excess of 10 million tons per year.

The Corporation 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 six months ended June 30, 2015, the Corporation repurchased 670,000 shares of common stock. At June 30, 2015, 19,330,000 shares of common stock were remaining under the Corporation’s repurchase authorization.

The Corporation entered into a definitive agreement to sell its California cement business for $420 million. The sale, which is subject to regulatory approval under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act and customary conditions, is expected to close

in the third quarter of 2015. While the Corporation believes the California cement plant is one of the most up-to-date plants in the region, it is not in close proximity to other core assets of the Corporation and, unlike other marketplace competitors, is not vertically integrated with ready mixed concrete production. After careful evaluation, it was determined a divestiture is the best avenue to maximize shareholder value. The Corporation expects to use the proceeds from the sale to repurchase additional shares of its stock.

The Credit Agreement (which consists of a $250 million Term Loan Facility and a $350 million Revolving Facility) requires the Corporation’s ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization (“EBITDA”), as defined, for the trailing twelve month period (the “Ratio”) to not exceed 3.50x as of the end of any fiscal quarter, provided that the Corporation may exclude from the Ratio debt incurred in connection with certain acquisitions for a period of 180 days so long as the Corporation, as a consequence of such specified acquisition, does not have its ratings on long-term unsecured debt fall below BBB by Standard & Poor’s or Baa2 by Moody’s and the Ratio calculated without such exclusion does not exceed 3.75x. Additionally, if there are no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility, consolidated debt, including debt for which the Corporation is a co-borrower, will be reduced for purposes of the covenant calculation by the Corporation’s unrestricted cash and cash equivalents in excess of
$50 million, such reduction not to exceed $200 million.

The Ratio is calculated as debt, including debt for which the Corporation is a co-borrower, divided by consolidated EBITDA, as defined by the Credit Agreement, for the trailing twelve months. Consolidated EBITDA is generally defined as earnings before interest expense, income tax expense, and depreciation, depletion and amortization expense for continuing operations. Additionally, stock-based compensation expense is added back and interest income is deducted in the calculation of consolidated EBITDA. Certain other nonrecurring noncash items, if they occur, can affect the calculation of consolidated EBITDA.

At June 30, 2015, the Corporation’s ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated EBITDA, as defined, for the trailing twelve months EBITDA was 2.36 times and was calculated as follows:

	July 1, 2014 to
	June 30, 2015
	(Dollars in thousands)
Earnings from continuing operations attributable to Martin Marietta	$	205,729
Add back:
Interest expense		79,326
Income tax expense		117,387
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense		267,626
Stock-based compensation expense		12,147
Acquisition-related expenses, net, related to the TXI acquisition		31,284
Deduct:
Interest income		(428	)
Consolidated EBITDA, as defined	$	713,071
Consolidated debt, including debt for which the Corporation is a co-borrower, at June 30, 2015	$	1,683,676
Consolidated debt to consolidated EBITDA, as defined, at June 30, 2015 for the trailing twelve months EBITDA	2.36x

The Trade Receivable Facility contains a cross-default provision to the Corporation’s other debt agreements. In the event of a default on the Ratio, the lenders can terminate the Credit Agreement and Trade Receivable Facility and declare any outstanding balances as immediately due.

Cash on hand, along with the Corporation’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 and allow for payment of dividends for the foreseeable future. At June 30, 2015, the Corporation had $520 million of unused borrowing capacity under its Revolving Facility and Trade Receivable Facility, subject to complying with the related leverage covenant. The Revolving Facility expires on November 29, 2018 and the Trade Receivable Facility expires on September 30, 2016.

The Corporation may be required to obtain financing to fund certain strategic acquisitions, if any such opportunities arise, or to refinance outstanding debt. Any strategic acquisition of size for cash would likely require an appropriate balance of newly-issued equity with debt in order to maintain a composite investment-grade credit rating. Furthermore, the Corporation is exposed to the credit markets, through the interest cost related to its variable-rate debt, which included borrowings under its Term Loan Facility at June 30, 2015. The Corporation is currently rated by three credit rating agencies; two of those agencies’ credit ratings are investment-grade level and the third agency’s credit rating is one level below investment grade. The Corporation’s composite credit rating remains at investment-grade level, which facilitates obtaining financing at lower rates than noninvestment-grade ratings.

TRENDS AND RISKS

The Corporation outlined the risks associated with its business in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. Management continues to evaluate its exposure to all operating risks on an ongoing basis.

OUTLOOK

The Corporation is encouraged by positive trends in its business and markets, notably:

·	Nonresidential construction is expected to grow in both the heavy industrial and commercial sectors. The Dodge Momentum Index remains high and signals continued growth.

Energy-related economic activity, including follow-on public and private construction activities in the Corporation’s primary markets, is anticipated to remain strong. Residential construction is expected to continue to grow, driven by historically low levels of construction activity over the previous several years, employment gains, low mortgage rates, significant lot absorption, higher multi-family rental rates and rising housing prices.

·	For the public sector, authorized highway funding from MAP-21 should remain stable compared with 2014. Additionally, state initiatives to finance infrastructure projects, including support from TIFIA, are expected to grow and continue to play an expanded role in public-sector activity.

The significant amount of rainfall during the first half of the year coupled with capacity constraints is expected to delay a portion of weather-delayed shipments into 2016. Based on this expectation and external trends, the Corporation anticipates the following for the full year, which reflects the pending sale of the California cement operations:

·	Aggregates end-use markets compared to 2014 levels are as follows:

o	Infrastructure market to be relatively flat.

o	Nonresidential market to increase in the high-single digits.

o	Residential market to experience a double-digit increase.

o	ChemRock/Rail market to remain relatively flat.

·	Aggregates product line shipments to increase by 7% to 10% compared with 2014 levels.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(Continued)

o	Heritage aggregates shipments to increase 3% to 5%.

·	Aggregates product line pricing to increase by 7% to 9% compared with 2014.

·	Aggregates product line production cost per ton shipped to decline slightly.

·	Aggregates-related downstream product lines to generate between $875 million and $925 million of net sales and $65 million to $70 million of gross profit.

·	Net sales for the Cement segment to be between $375 million and $400 million, generating $110 million to $120 million of gross profit.

·	Net sales for the Magnesia Specialties segment to be between $240 million and $250 million, generating $85 million to $90 million of gross profit.

·	SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales to be less than 6.0%, despite an $18 million increase in heritage pension costs that resulted from lower discount rate.

·	Interest expense to approximate $75 million to $80 million.

·	Estimated effective income tax rate to approximate 31%, excluding discrete events.

·	Consolidated EBITDA to range from $810 million to $850 million.

·	Cash taxes paid to approximate $62 million.

·	Capital expenditures to approximate $330 million, including $35 million of synergy-related capital and $80 million for Medina limestone quarry.

The 2015 outlook includes management’s assessment of the likelihood of certain risks and uncertainties that will affect performance. The most significant risks to the Corporation’s performance will be Congress’ actions and timing surrounding federal highway funding and uncertainty over the funding mechanism for the Highway Trust Fund. Congress recently extended federal highway funding through continuing resolution through October 29, 2015. Further, a decline in consumer confidence may negatively impact investment in construction projects. While both MAP-21 and TIFIA credit assistance are excluded from the U.S. debt ceiling limit, this issue may have a significant impact on the economy and, consequently, construction activity. Other risks and uncertainties related to the Corporation’s future performance include, but are not limited to: both price and volume, and a recurrence of widespread decline in aggregates volume negatively affecting aggregates price; the termination, capping and/or reduction of the federal and/or state gasoline tax(es) or other revenue related to infrastructure construction; a significant change in the funding patterns for traditional federal, state and/or local infrastructure projects; a reduction in defense spending, and the subsequent impact on construction activity on or near military bases; a decline in nonresidential construction; a decline in energy-related drilling activity resulting from a sustained period of low global oil prices or changes in oil production patterns in response to this decline and certain regulatory or other economic factors; a slowdown in the residential construction recovery, or some combination thereof; a reduction in economic activity in the Corporation’s Midwest states resulting from reduced funding levels provided by the Agricultural Act of 2014 and a reduction in capital investment by the railroads; an increase in the cost of compliance with governmental laws and regulations; unexpected equipment failures, unscheduled maintenance, industrial accident or other prolonged and/or significant disruption to our cement production facilities; and the possibility that certain expected synergies and operating efficiencies in

connection with the TXI acquisition are not realized within the expected time-frames or at all. Further, increased highway construction funding pressures resulting from either federal or state issues can affect profitability. If these negatively affect transportation budgets more than in the past, construction spending could be reduced. Cement is subject to cyclical supply and demand and price fluctuations. The Magnesia Specialties business runs at near capacity; therefore any unplanned changes in costs or realignment of customers introduce volatility to the earnings of this segment.

The Corporation’s principal business serves customers in aggregates-related construction markets. This concentration could increase the risk of potential losses on customer receivables; however, payment bonds normally posted on public projects, together with lien rights on private projects, help to mitigate the risk of uncollectible receivables. The level of aggregates demand in the Corporation’s end-use markets, production levels and the management of production costs will affect the operating leverage of the Aggregates business and, therefore, profitability. Production costs in the Aggregates business are also sensitive to energy and raw material prices, both directly and indirectly. Diesel fuel and other consumables change production costs directly through consumption or indirectly by increased energy-related input costs, such as steel, explosives, tires and conveyor belts. Fluctuating diesel fuel pricing also affects transportation costs, primarily through fuel surcharges in the Corporation’s long-haul distribution network. The Cement business is also energy intensive and fluctuations in the price of coal affects costs. The Magnesia Specialties business is sensitive to changes in domestic steel capacity utilization and the absolute price and fluctuations in the cost of natural gas.

Transportation in the Corporation’s long-haul network, particularly the supply of railcars and locomotive power and condition of rail infrastructure to move trains, affects the Corporation’s ability to efficiently transport aggregate into certain markets, most notably Texas, Florida and the Gulf Coast. In addition, availability of railcars and locomotives affects the Corporation’s ability to move dolomitic lime, a key raw material for magnesia chemicals, to both the Corporation’s plant in Manistee, Michigan, and customers. The availability of trucks, drivers and railcars to transport the Corporation’s products, particularly in markets experiencing high growth and increased demand, is also a risk and pressures the associated costs.

All of the Corporation’s businesses are also subject to weather-related risks that can significantly affect production schedules and profitability. The first and fourth quarters are most adversely affected by winter weather. Hurricane activity in the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf Coast generally is most active during the third and fourth quarters.

Risks to the outlook also include shipment declines as a result of economic events beyond the Corporation’s control. In addition to the impact on nonresidential and residential construction, the Corporation is exposed to risk in its estimated outlook from credit markets and the availability of and interest cost related to its debt.

The Corporation’s future performance is also exposed to risks from tax reform at the federal and state levels.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The Corporation’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 or escalating costs.

Management has considered the current economic environment and its potential impact to the Corporation’s business. Demand for aggregates products, particularly in the infrastructure construction market, has already been negatively affected by federal and state budget and deficit issues and the uncertainty over future highway funding levels beyond the expiration of MAP-21 which has been extended via several continuing resolutions, the latest of which expires October 29, 2015. Further, delays or cancellations to capital projects in the nonresidential and residential construction markets could occur if companies and consumers are unable to obtain financing for construction projects or if consumer confidence continues to be eroded by economic uncertainty.

Demand in the residential construction market is affected by interest rates. The Federal Reserve kept the federal funds rate near zero percent during the six months ended June 30, 2015, unchanged since 2008. The residential construction market accounted for 14% of the Corporation’s aggregates product line shipments in 2014.

Aside from these inherent risks from within its operations, the Corporation’s earnings are also affected by changes in short-term interest rates. However, rising interest rates are not necessarily predictive of weaker operating results. In fact, since 2007, the Corporation’s profitability increased when interest rates rose, based on the last twelve months quarterly historical net income regression versus a 10-year U.S. government bond. In essence, the Corporation’s underlying business generally serves as a natural hedge to rising interest rates.

Variable-Rate Borrowing Facilities. At June 30, 2015, the Corporation had a $600 million Credit Agreement, comprised of a $350 million Revolving Facility and $250 million Term Loan Facility, and a $250 million Trade Receivable Facility. Borrowings under these facilities bear interest at a variable interest rate. A hypothetical 100-basis-point increase in interest rates on borrowings of $310.2 million, which was the collective outstanding balance at June 30, 2015, would increase interest expense by $3.1 million on an annual basis.

Pension Expense. The Corporation’s results of operations are affected by its pension expense. Assumptions that affect pension expense include the discount rate and, for the defined benefit pension plans only, the expected long-term rate of return on assets. Therefore, the Corporation has interest rate risk associated with these factors. The impact of hypothetical changes in these assumptions on the Corporation’s annual pension expense is discussed in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Energy Costs. Energy costs, including diesel fuel, natural gas, coal and liquid asphalt, represent significant production costs of the Corporation. The Corporation entered into a fixed price arrangement for 40% of its diesel fuel to reduce its diesel fuel price risk. The Magnesia Specialties business has fixed price agreements covering half of its 2015 coal requirements and the cement business has fixed pricing agreements on 100% of its 2015 coal requirements. A hypothetical 10% change in the Corporation’s energy prices in 2015 as compared with 2014, assuming constant volumes, would change 2015 energy expense by $27.9 million. However, the impact would be partially offset by the change in the amount capitalized into inventory standards.

Commodity risk. Cement is a commodity and competition is based principally on price, which is highly sensitive to changes in supply and demand. Prices are often subject to material changes in response to relatively minor fluctuations in supply and demand, general economic conditions and other market conditions beyond the Corporation’s control. Increases in the production capacity of industry participants or increases in cement imports tend to create an oversupply

of such products leading to an imbalance between supply and demand, which can have a negative impact on product prices. There can be no assurance that prices for products sold will not decline in the future or that such declines will not have a material adverse effect on the Corporation’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Based on forecasted net sales for the Cement business for full-year 2015 of $375 million to $400 million, a hypothetical 10% change in sales price would impact net sales by $37.5 million to $40 million.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of June 30, 2015, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Corporation’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and the operation of the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Corporation’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2015. As permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, management’s assessment of and conclusion on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting did not include the internal controls over accounts receivable related to the TXI ready mixed concrete operations, which are included in the consolidated financial statements for the period ending June 30, 2015. The excluded assets constituted less than one percent of consolidated total assets as of June 30, 2015.
