The accompanying notes are an integral part of these condensed consolidated financial statements. 3 U.S. CONCRETE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION U.S. Concrete, Inc., a Delaware corporation, was founded in July 1997 to create a leading provider of ready-mixed concrete and related products and services to the construction industry in major markets in the United States. It did not conduct any operations prior to May 1999. On May 28, 1999, it completed the initial public offering of its common stock and concurrently acquired six operating businesses. From the date of its IPO through June 30, 2000, U.S. Concrete acquired 13 additional operating businesses and intends to acquire additional companies to expand its operations. For financial statement presentation purposes, (1) we present Central Concrete Supply Co., Inc., one of the businesses we initially acquired, as the acquirer of the other acquired businesses and U.S. Concrete, (2) we account for these acquisitions in accordance with the purchase method of accounting and (3) the effective date of the initial acquisitions is May 31, 1999. Our financial statements are those of Central prior to June 1, 1999 and of U.S. Concrete and its consolidated subsidiaries after that date. Our financial statements reflect the operations of the businesses we acquired after May 31, 1999 from their respective dates of acquisition. U.S. Concrete's future success depends on a number of factors, which include integrating operations successfully, identifying and integrating satisfactory acquisition candidates, obtaining acquisition financing, managing growth, attracting and retaining qualified management and employees, complying with government regulations and other regulatory requirements or contract specifications, and addressing risks associated with competition, seasonality and quarterly fluctuations. Under applicable regulations of the SEC, the historical consolidated financial statements in this report are unaudited and omit information and footnote disclosures that financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles normally would include. In the opinion of management, (1) the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading and (2) the consolidated financial statements reflect all elimination entries and normal adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for full years. You should read these condensed consolidated financial statements together with the audited financial statements and related notes in U.S. Concrete's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES U.S. Concrete has not added to or changed its accounting policies significantly since December 31, 1999. For a description of these policies, refer to Note 2 of the Consolidated Financial Statements in U.S. Concrete's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999. 3. BUSINESS COMBINATIONS During the first half of 2000, U.S. Concrete acquired five businesses. The aggregate consideration it paid in these transactions, all of which are accounted for as purchases, consisted of $86.0 million in cash and 3.3 million shares of common stock. The accompanying balance sheet as of June 30, 2000 includes preliminary allocations of the purchase prices and is subject to final adjustment. The initial purchase price allocations of the five acquired businesses resulted in the addition of $73.4 million to goodwill. The following summarized pro forma financial information adjusts the historical financial information by assuming that all the businesses acquired through June 30, 2000 by U.S. Concrete had been acquired on January 1, 1999:
THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30 JUNE 30 ---------------------------- -------------------------- 2000 1999 2000 1999 -------- -------- -------- -------- (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts; unaudited) Revenues $108,969 $102,699 $184,452 $175,611 Net income $ 6,864 $ 3,539 $ 7,898 $ 4,710 Basic earnings per share $ 0.31 $ 0.16 $ 0.36 $ 0.21 Diluted earnings per share $ 0.31 $ 0.16 $ 0.36 $ 0.21
4 The pro forma adjustments these amounts include primarily relate to: . contractual reductions in salaries, bonuses and benefits to former owners of the businesses; . elimination of legal, accounting and other professional fees incurred in connection with the acquisitions; . amortization of goodwill resulting from the acquisitions; . reduction in interest expense, net of interest expense on borrowings to fund acquisitions; and . adjustments to the federal and state income tax provisions based on pro forma operating results. The pro forma financial information does not purport to represent what the combined financial results of operations of U.S. Concrete actually would have been if these transactions had in fact occurred when assumed and are not necessarily representative of its financial results of operations for any future period. 4. SHARES USED IN COMPUTING EARNINGS PER SHARE The following table summarizes the number of shares (in thousands) of common stock we have used on a weighted average basis in calculating earnings per share:

5. LONG-TERM DEBT A summary of long-term debt is as follows (dollars in thousands): JUNE 30, DECEMBER 31, 2000 1999 ---------- ------------- (unaudited) Secured revolving credit facility $153,079 $57,100 Other 206 275 ----------- ----------- 153,285 57,375 Less: current maturities (143) (140) ----------- ----------- Long-term debt, net of current maturities $153,142 $57,235 =========== =========== On May 28, 1999, U.S. Concrete entered into a three-year $75 million revolving credit facility with a group of banks. It may use this facility for working capital, to finance acquisitions, to internally expand operations and for other general corporate purposes. Availability under the facility is tied to consolidated cash flow and liquidity. Advances bear interest, at U.S. Concrete's option, at a prime rate or LIBOR, in each case plus a margin keyed to the ratio of consolidated indebtedness to cash flow. Commitment fees are due on any unused borrowing capacity. The facility requires U.S. Concrete to maintain financial covenants regarding net worth, coverage ratios and additional indebtedness and prohibits dividends on its common stock. Subsidiary guarantees and pledges of substantially all U.S. Concrete's fixed assets secure the payment of all obligations owing under the facility. The size of the facility increased to $100 million in December 1999 and to $200 million in February 2000. 5 6. INCOME TAXES Prior to their respective acquisitions, Central and several other acquired businesses were S corporations and were not subject to federal income taxes. Effective with their acquisitions they became subject to those taxes, and U.S. Concrete has recorded an estimated deferred tax liability to provide for its estimated future income tax liability as a result of the difference between the book and tax bases of the net assets of these corporations as of the dates of their acquisitions. These consolidated financial statements reflect the federal and state income taxes of these corporations since their dates of acquisition. 7. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS You should read Item 1 of Part II for a discussion of our legal proceedings. 6 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Statements we make in the following discussion which express a belief, expectation or intention, as well as those that are not historical fact, are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, could differ materially from those we express in the following discussion as a result of a variety of factors, including the risks and uncertainties we have referred to under the heading "Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-looking Statements" following Items 1 and 2 of Part I of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999 and under the heading "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Factors That May Affect Our Future Operating Results" in Item 7 of Part II of that annual report on Form 10-K. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The following table sets forth for us selected historical statements of operations information and that information as a percentage of sales for the periods indicated. These financial statements are those of Central prior to June 1, 1999 and of U.S. Concrete and its consolidated subsidiaries after that date. Except as we note below, the consolidation of operating results beginning on June 1, 1999 and our subsequent acquisitions in 1999 and the first two quarters of 2000 principally account for the changes in 2000 from 1999.

SALES. Sales increased $78.8 million, or 285.1%, and $133.8 million, or 329.5%, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, as compared with the corresponding periods in 1999. GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased $17.5 million, or 318.1%, and $27.3 million, or 349.3%, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, as compared with the corresponding periods in 1999. Gross margins increased from 19.9% in the three months ended June 30, 1999 to 21.6% in the three months ended June 30, 2000 and increased from 19.3% in the six months ended June 30, 1999 to 20.2% in the six months ended June 30, 2000. SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $3.8 million, or 178.7%, and $7.8 million, or 224.7%, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, as compared with the corresponding periods in 1999. STOCK COMPENSATION CHARGE. The 1999 stock compensation charge represents a noncash charge related to 400,000 shares of common stock U.S. Concrete issued in December 1998 and March 1999 to management and nonemployee directors at a nominal cost. The amount of this charge reflected a fair value of $7.20 per share, which represented a 10% discount from the initial offering price to the public of $8.00 per share in the IPO. DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $2.4 million, or 360.0%, and $4.5 million, or 465.0%, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, as compared with the corresponding periods in 1999. This increase includes amortization of the goodwill attributable to our acquisition activity. We are amortizing this goodwill over 40 years for each acquisition. At June 30, 2000, the annualized amount of this noncash expense was $4.7 million. 7 INTEREST EXPENSE, NET. Interest expense, net, increased $3.1 million, or 972.2%, and $5.4 million, or 1,925.0%, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, as compared with the corresponding periods in 1999. This increase was attributable principally to borrowings we made to pay the cash portion of the purchase prices for our acquisitions. At June 30, 2000, we had borrowings totaling $153.1 million outstanding under our credit facility at a weighted average interest cost of 8.5% per annum. OTHER INCOME, NET. Other income, net increased $516,000, or 355.9%, and $561,000, or 168.0%, for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, as compared with the corresponding periods in 1999. These increases were attributable to the sale of a customer contract, a gain from the involuntary conversion of property and numerous other items of income and expense. INCOME TAX PROVISION. We provided for income taxes of $4.6 million and $5.6 million for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2000, respectively, as compared with a provision of $1,642 during the corresponding periods in 1999. These increases were attributable to the fact that Central was an S corporation during 1999 and thus made no provision for federal income taxes in that period. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Our acquisitions since December 31, 1999 principally account for the changes in our working capital accounts and our property, plant and equipment account from December 31, 1999 to June 30, 2000. During the first two quarters of 2000, we purchased five operating businesses that we have accounted for in accordance with the purchase method of accounting. The aggregate consideration we paid in these transactions consisted of $86.0 million in cash and 3.3 million shares of common stock. In February 2000, we increased the size of our secured revolving credit facility to $200 million. We had $153.1 million of outstanding borrowings under the facility at June 30, 2000. The facility has a term expiring in May 2002 and a $5.0 million sublimit for letters of credit issued on our behalf. Our borrowing capacity under the facility will vary from time to time depending on our satisfaction of several financial tests. We may use the facility for the following purposes: . financing acquisitions; . funding the internal expansion of our operations; . working capital; and . general corporate purposes. Our subsidiaries have guaranteed the repayment of all amounts owing under the facility, and we secured the facility with the capital stock and assets of our subsidiaries. The facility: . requires the consent of the lenders for certain acquisitions; . prohibits the payment of cash dividends on our common stock; . limits our ability to incur additional indebtedness; and . requires us to comply with financial covenants. The failure to comply with these covenants and restrictions would constitute an event of default under the facility. We anticipate that our consolidated cash flow from our operations will exceed our normal working capital needs, debt service requirements and the amount of our planned capital expenditures, excluding acquisitions, for at least the next 12 months. The continuation of our growth strategy will require substantial capital. We currently intend to finance future acquisitions through issuances of our common stock or debt securities, including convertible debt securities, and borrowings under our credit facility. Using debt to complete acquisitions could substantially limit our operational and financial flexibility. The extent to which we will be able or willing to use our common stock to make acquisitions will depend on its market value from time to time and the willingness of potential sellers to accept it as full or partial payment. Using our common stock for this purpose may result in dilution to our then existing stockholders. To the extent we are unable to use our common stock to make future acquisitions, our ability to grow will be limited by the extent to which we are able to raise capital for this purpose, as well as to expand existing operations, through debt or additional equity financings. If we are unable to obtain additional capital on acceptable terms, we may be required to reduce the scope of our presently anticipated expansion, which could materially adversely affect our business and the value of our common stock. 8 We cannot accurately predict the timing, size and success of our acquisition efforts or our associated potential capital commitments. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Borrowings under our revolving credit facility expose us to market risks. Outstanding borrowings under our credit facility were $153.1 million at June 30, 2000. A change of one percent in the interest rate would cause a change in interest expense on these outstanding borrowings of approximately $1.5 million, or $0.04 per share, on an annual basis. We did not enter into our credit facility for trading purposes, and the facility carries interest at a pre-agreed percentage point spread from either a prime interest rate or a LIBOR interest rate. 9 PART II - OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS Bay-Crete Transportation & Materials, LLC alleges in a lawsuit it filed on July 11, 2000 in California Superior Court in San Mateo County, against U.S. Concrete, Inc. and its subsidiary Central Concrete Supply Co., Inc., that it possesses beneficiary rights under a 1983 contract to purchase annually up to 200,000 cubic yards of ready-mixed concrete from Central until March 30, 2082. Under that contract, the purchase price would consist of Central's direct materials costs and an overhead fee. Bay-Crete alleges that U.S. Concrete, Inc. breached that contract by refusing to acknowledge Bay-Crete's rights as a beneficiary of that contract. It is seeking damages of $500 million of lost profits spread over the next 82 years. A predecessor to Central previously prevailed in a similar action brought by the general manager of Bay-Crete under a related agreement, and U.S. Concrete and Central believe they have meritorious defenses to Bay-Crete's claim and intend to vigorously defend this suit. Based on our evaluation of the above matter, we believe it is unlikely that the final outcome of this claim will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations; however, due to the inherent uncertainty of litigation, there can be no assurance that the resolution of this claim will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for the fiscal period in which such resolution occurs. From time to time, and currently, we are subject to various other claims and litigation brought by employees, customers and third parties for, among other matters, personal injuries, property damages, product defects and delay damages that have, or allegedly have, resulted from the conduct of our operations. We believe it is unlikely that the final outcome of any of such claims or litigation will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations; however, due to the inherent uncertainty of litigation, there can be no assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding to which we are a party will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for the fiscal period in which such resolution occurs. We expect in the future we will from time to time be a party to litigation or administrative proceedings which arise in the normal course of our business. ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS (c) Unregistered Sales of Securities. Between April 1, 2000 and June 30, 2000, U.S. Concrete issued 711,337 shares of common stock as part of the consideration we paid to the former owners of the two businesses we acquired in that period. We issued these shares without registration under the Securities Act in reliance on the exemption Section 4(2) of the Securities Act provides for transactions not involving any public offering. Each acquisition involved a small number of owners who received shares of U.S. Concrete common stock. ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS 1.
