■ | CALIFORNIA WATER SERVICE COMPANY On June 6, 2008, we were served in an action styled California Water Service Company v. Dow, et al., now pending in the San Mateo County Superior Court, California. According to the complaint, California Water Service Company owns and/or operates public drinking water systems, and supplies drinking water to hundreds of thousands of residents and businesses throughout California. The complaint alleges that water wells in a number of communities have been contaminated with perc. The plaintiff is seeking compensatory damages and punitive damages. As a result of the discovery to date, which has focused principally on issues such as legal injury (as defined by the maximum contaminant level for perc) and the statute of limitations, the number of wells at issue has been reduced from 244 to 14. Recently, plaintiffs identified 63 dry cleaners that allegedly used perc in the vicinity of the 14 wells at issue, and discovery has commenced on those dry cleaners. At this time, plaintiffs have not established that our perc was used at any specific dry cleaner or that we are liable for any alleged contamination of a specific well. |
■ | CITY OF SUNNYVALE CALIFORNIA On January 6, 2009, we were served in an action styled City of Sunnyvale v. Legacy Vulcan Corporation, f/k/a Vulcan Materials Company, filed in the San Mateo County Superior Court, California. The plaintiffs are seeking cost recovery and other damages for alleged environmental contamination from perc and its breakdown products at the Sunnyvale Town Center Redevelopment Project. Based on the discovery to date, we do not believe that plaintiffs can meet their burden of proof to establish that our perc was used at sites in a redevelopment project area or that we are liable for any alleged contamination. Discovery is ongoing. Trial is scheduled for September 2012. |

■ | SUFFOLK COUNTY WATER AUTHORITY On July 29, 2010, we were served in an action styled Suffolk County Water Authority v. The Dow Chemical Company, et al., in the Supreme Court for Suffolk County, State of New York. The complaint alleges that the plaintiff owns and/or operates drinking water systems and supplies drinking water to thousands of residents and businesses, in Suffolk County, New York. The complaint alleges that perc and its breakdown products have been and are contaminating and damaging Plaintiffs drinking water supply wells. The plaintiff is seeking compensatory and punitive damages. At this time, plaintiffs have not established that our perc was used at any specific dry cleaner, much less that we are liable for any alleged contamination. Discovery is being phased, with the initial focus on legal injury and the statute of limitations. Phase One discovery is now closed and we have filed a partial motion for summary judgment on these issues. | |
■ | ADDAIR This is a purported class action case for medical monitoring and personal injury damages styled Addair et al. v. Processing Company, LLC, et al., pending in the Circuit Court of Wyoming County, West Virginia. The plaintiffs allege various personal injuries from exposure to perc used in coal sink labs. By Order dated September 20, 2011, the Court denied class action certification. | |
■ | WEST VIRGINIA COAL SINK LAB LITIGATION This is a mass tort action consisting of over 100 cases filed in 17 different counties in West Virginia from September 1 to October 13, 2010, for medical monitoring and personal injury damages for exposure to perc and carbon tetrachloride used in coal sink labs. The West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals, in an order entered January 19, 2011, transferred all of these cases (referred to as Jeffrey Blount v. Arkema, Inc., et al.) to the West Virginia Mass Litigation Panel. Discovery is ongoing. The panel has scheduled a trial of some or all of this matter for September 2012. | |
■ | SANTARSIERO This is a case styled Robert Santarsiero v. R.V. Davies, et al., pending in Supreme Court, New York County, New York. We were brought in as a third-party defendant by original defendant R.V. Davies. The plaintiff, who was alleging perc exposure, is now deceased. The case has been stayed pending further information about this development. | |
■ | R.R. STREET INDEMNITY Street, a former distributor of perc manufactured by us, alleges that we owe Street, and its insurer (National Union), a defense and indemnity in several of these litigation matters, as well as some prior litigation which we have now settled. National Union alleges that we are obligated to contribute to National Unions share of defense fees, costs and any indemnity payments made on Streets behalf. We have had discussions with Street about the nature and extent of indemnity obligations, if any, and to date there has been no resolution of these issues. |

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS |
NOTE 7: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair
value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into
three broad levels as described below:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2: Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data
Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement
Our assets and liabilities that are subject to fair value measurements on a recurring basis are
summarized below:
The Rabbi Trust investments relate to funding for the executive nonqualified deferred compensation
and excess benefit plans. The fair values of these investments are estimated using a market
approach. The Level 1 investments include mutual funds and equity securities for which quoted
prices in active markets are available. Investments in common/collective trust funds are stated at
estimated fair value based on the underlying investments in those funds. The underlying investments
are comprised of short-term, highly liquid assets in commercial paper, short-term bonds and
treasury bills.
The medium-term investments were comprised of money market and other money funds, as more fully
described in Note 5. Using a market approach, we estimated the fair value of these funds by
applying our historical distribution ratio to the liquidated value of investments in The Reserve
funds. Additionally, we estimated a discount against our investment balances to allow for the risk
that legal and accounting costs and pending or threatened claims and litigation against The Reserve
and its management would reduce the principal available for distribution.
Interest rate swaps are measured at fair value using quoted market prices or pricing models that
use prevailing market interest rates as of the measurement date. These interest rate swaps are more
fully described in Note 6.
The carrying values of our cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts and notes receivable,
current maturities of long-term debt, short-term borrowings, trade payables and other accrued
expenses approximate their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.
Additional disclosures for derivative instruments and interest-bearing debt are presented in Notes
6 and 11, respectively.
There were no assets or liabilities subject to fair value measurement on a nonrecurring basis in
2011. Assets that were subject to fair value measurement on a nonrecurring basis are summarized
below:
We recorded a $3,936,000 loss on impairment of long-lived assets in 2010. We utilized an income
approach to measure the fair value of the long-lived assets and determined that the carrying value
of the assets exceeded the fair value. The loss on impairment represents the difference between the
carrying value and the fair value (less costs to sell for assets held for sale) of the impacted
long-lived assets.

Fair Value Measurements |
ENHANCED DISCLOSURES FOR FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS As of and for the interim period ended
March 31, 2011, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-06, “Improving Disclosures
about Fair Value Measurements” as it relates to separate disclosures about purchases, sales,
issuances and settlements applicable to Level 3 measurements. Our adoption of this standard had no
impact on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
AMENDMENTS TO FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT REQUIREMENTS In May 2011, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement
and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.” The amendments in the ASU achieve the
objectives of developing common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) and improving their understandability. Some of
the requirements clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement
requirements while other amendments change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair
value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments in this ASU are
effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with no
early adoption permitted. We will adopt this standard as of and for the interim period ending March
31, 2012. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on our condensed
consolidated financial statements.
|
Other Comprehensive Income |
PRESENTATION OF OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME As of and for the interim period ended June 30, 2011,
we early adopted ASU No. 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” This standard eliminates
the option to present components of other comprehensive income (OCI) as part of the statement of
shareholders’ equity. The amendments in this standard require that all nonowner changes in
shareholders’ equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income
or in two separate but consecutive statements. Our Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Comprehensive Income conform to the presentation requirements of this standard.
|
Goodwill |
AMENDMENTS ON GOODWILL IMPAIRMENT TESTING In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08,
“Testing Goodwill for Impairment” which amends the goodwill impairment testing guidance in
ASC 350-20, “Goodwill.” Under the amended guidance, an entity
has the option of performing a qualitative assessment when testing goodwill for impairment. The
two-step impairment test would only be required if, on the basis of the qualitative factors, an
entity determines that the fair value of the reporting unit is more likely than not (a likelihood
of more than 50%) less than the carrying amount. Additionally, this ASU revises the examples of
events and circumstances that an entity should consider when determining if an interim goodwill
impairment test is required. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim
goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, with early
adoption permitted. We will adopt this standard as of and for the interim period ending March 31,
2012. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on our condensed
consolidated financial statements.

Enhanced Disclosure Requirements On Multiemployer Benefit Plans |
ENHANCED DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS ON MULTIEMPLOYER BENEFIT PLANS In September 2011, the FASB issued
ASU No. 2011-09, “Disclosures About an Employer’s Participation in a Multiemployer Plan” which
increases the quantitative and qualitative disclosures an employer is required to provide about its
participation in significant multiemployer plans that offer pension and other postretirement
benefits. The ASU’s objective is to enhance the transparency of disclosures about (1) the
significant multiemployer plans in which an employer participates, (2) the level of the employer’s
participation in those plans, (3) the financial health of the plans and (4) the nature of the
employer’s commitments to the plans. This ASU is effective for annual periods ending after December
15, 2011. We will adopt this standard as of and for our annual period ending December 31, 2011.

ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS |
NOTE 12: ASSET RETIREMENT OBLIGATIONS
Asset retirement obligations (AROs) are legal obligations associated with the retirement of
long-lived assets resulting from the acquisition, construction, development and/or normal use of
the underlying assets.
Recognition of a liability for an ARO is required in the period in which it is incurred at its
estimated fair value. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying
amount of the underlying asset and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the asset. The
liability is accreted through charges to operating expenses. If the ARO is settled for other than
the carrying amount of the liability, we recognize a gain or loss on settlement.
We record all AROs for which we have legal obligations for land reclamation at estimated fair
value. Essentially all these AROs relate to our underlying land parcels, including both owned
properties and mineral leases. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, we
recognized ARO operating costs related to accretion of the liabilities and depreciation of the
assets as follows:
ARO operating costs for our continuing operations are reported in cost of goods sold. AROs
are reported within other noncurrent liabilities in our accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance
Sheets.
Reconciliations of the carrying amounts of our AROs are as follows:
Revisions to our AROs during 2010 related primarily to extensions in the estimated settlement
dates at numerous sites.

EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS) |
NOTE 3: EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS)
We report two earnings per share numbers: basic and diluted. These are computed by dividing net
earnings by the weighted-average common shares outstanding (basic EPS) or weighted-average common
shares outstanding assuming dilution (diluted EPS) as set forth below:
All dilutive common stock equivalents are reflected in our earnings per share calculations.
Antidilutive common stock equivalents are not included in our earnings per share calculations. In
periods of loss, shares that otherwise would have been included in our diluted weighted-average
common shares outstanding computation are excluded. These excluded shares are as follows: nine
months ended September 30, 2011 — 304,000 shares and nine months ended September 30, 2010 — 406,000
shares.
The number of antidilutive common stock equivalents for which the exercise price exceeds the
weighted-average market price, are as follows:

NOTE 9: SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
In March 2010, we issued 1,190,000 shares of common stock to our qualified pension plan (par value
of $1 per share) as described in Note 10. This transaction increased shareholders’ equity by
$53,864,000 (common stock $1,190,000 and capital in excess of par $52,674,000).
In February 2011, we issued 372,992 shares (368,527 shares net of acquired cash) of common stock in
connection with a business acquisition as described in Note 14.
We periodically issue shares of common stock to the trustee of our 401(k) savings and retirement
plan to satisfy the plan participants’ elections to invest in our common stock. The resulting cash
proceeds provide a means of improving cash flow, increasing shareholders’ equity and reducing
leverage. Under this arrangement, the stock issuances and resulting cash proceeds were as follows:
No shares were held in treasury as of September 30, 2011, December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010.
As of September 30, 2011, 3,411,416 shares may be repurchased under the current authorization of
our Board of Directors.

ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES |
NOTE 14: ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES
During the first quarter of 2011, we acquired ten ready-mixed concrete facilities for 432,407
shares of common stock valued at the closing date price of $42.85 per share (total consideration of
$18,529,000 net of acquired cash). We issued 368,527 shares to the seller at closing and retained
63,880 shares to fulfill certain working capital adjustments and indemnification obligations.
As a result of this acquisition, we recognized $6,419,000 of amortizable intangible assets, none of
which is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The amortizable intangible assets
consist of contractual rights in place and will be amortized over an estimated weighted-average
period of 20 years.
The purchase price allocation for this 2011 acquisition is preliminary and subject to adjustment.
On September 30, 2011, we completed the sale of four aggregates facilities. The sale resulted in
net cash proceeds at closing of $61,774,000 and a pretax gain on sale of $39,659,000. The book value of the
divested operations includes $10,300,000 of goodwill. Goodwill was allocated based on the relative
fair value of the divested operations as compared to the relative fair value of the retained
portion of the reporting unit.
On October 3, 2011, we consummated a transaction resulting in an exchange of assets. We acquired
three aggregates facilities and a rail distribution yard. In return, we divested two aggregates
facilities, one asphalt mix facility, one ready-mixed concrete facility and undeveloped real
property, and paid $10,000,000 in cash (in escrow pending the exchange partner’s satisfaction of
certain obligations). As this exchange was an exchange of businesses, we will account for the
acquisitions and divestitures separately at fair value. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2011 the
exchanged assets met the criteria for classification as held for sale.
Additionally, as of the second quarter of 2011, we determined that the sale of an aggregates
facility and a ready-mixed concrete facility located outside the United States would not close
within the next twelve months. Thus, these assets no longer meet the criteria for classification as
held for sale. The property, plant & equipment of these foreign facilities was measured at the
lower of fair value or carrying amount adjusted to recapture suspended depreciation.
The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets reflect our assets held for sale and
liabilities of assets held for sale as of September 30, 2011 (exchange of assets), and as of
December 31, 2010 and September 30, 2010 (facilities located outside the United States) as follows:
During the third quarter of 2010, we acquired twelve ready-mixed concrete facilities for
approximately $35,404,000 (total cash consideration). Our final purchase price allocation for this
acquisition resulted in an immaterial revision to our September 30, 2010 balances for property,
plant & equipment and other intangible assets as reflected in the accompanying Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheet.
During the first quarter of 2010, we sold three aggregates facilities for approximately $42,750,000
(total cash consideration) and recognized a pretax gain of $39,479,000.

NOTE 10: BENEFIT PLANS
The following tables set forth the components of net periodic benefit cost:
The reclassifications from OCI noted in the tables above are related to amortization of prior
service costs or credits and actuarial losses as shown in Note 8.
We contributed $72,500,000 in March 2010 ($18,636,000 in cash and $53,864,000 in stock — 1,190,000
shares valued at $45.26 per share) and an additional $1,300,000 in July 2010 to our qualified
pension plans for the 2009 plan year. These contributions, along with the existing funding credits,
should be sufficient to cover expected required contributions to the qualified plans through 2012.
As of December 31, 2008, our Master Pension Trust had assets invested at Westridge Capital
Management, Inc. (WCM) with a reported fair value of $59,245,000. In February 2009, the New York
District Court appointed a receiver over WCM due to allegations of fraud and other violations of
federal commodities and securities laws by principals of a WCM affiliate. In light of these
allegations, we reassessed the fair value of our investments at WCM and recorded a $48,018,000
write-down in the estimated fair value of these assets for the year ended December 31, 2008.
During 2010, the Master Pension Trust received $6,555,000 from the receiver over WCM as a partial
distribution of assets, and received a $15,000,000 insurance settlement related to our WCM loss. In
April 2011, the court-appointed receiver released an additional $22,041,000 to our Master Pension
Trust.

NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Vulcan Materials Company (the “Company,” “Vulcan,” “we,” “our”), a New Jersey corporation, is the
nation’s largest producer of construction aggregates, primarily crushed stone, sand and gravel; a
major producer of asphalt mix and ready-mixed concrete and a leading producer of cement in Florida.
Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in compliance
with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and thus do not include all of
the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of our management, the
statements reflect all adjustments, including those of a normal recurring nature, necessary to
present fairly the results of the reported interim periods. Operating results for the three and
nine month periods ended September 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may
be expected for the year ended December 31, 2011. For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes included in our most recent Annual Report on Form
10-K.
Due to the 2005 sale of our Chemicals business as presented in Note 2, the operating results of the
Chemicals business are presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying Condensed
Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income.
RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain items previously reported in specific financial statement captions have been reclassified
to conform with the 2011 presentation.
CORRECTION OF PRIOR PERIOD FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
During 2010 we completed a comprehensive analysis of our deferred income tax balances and concluded
that our deferred income tax liabilities were understated. The errors arose during 2008 and during
periods prior to January 1, 2007, and are not material to previously issued financial statements.
As a result, we did not amend previously filed financial statements but restated the December 31,
2009 balance sheet in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 and have
restated the September 30, 2010 balance sheet presented in this Form 10-Q.
The errors that arose during 2008 related to the calculations of deferred income taxes referable to
the Florida Rock acquisition and additional 2008 federal return adjustments. The correction of
these errors resulted in a decrease to deferred income tax liabilities of $6,129,000, an increase
to goodwill referable to our Aggregates segment of $2,321,000 and an increase in current taxes
payable of $8,450,000 for the year ended December 31, 2008.
The errors that arose during periods prior to January 1, 2007 resulted in an understatement of
deferred income tax liabilities of $14,785,000. Based on the work performed to confirm the current
and deferred income tax provisions recorded during 2007, 2008 and 2009, and to determine the
correct deferred income tax account balances as of January 1, 2007, we were able to substantiate
that the $14,785,000 understatement related to periods prior to January 1, 2007. The correction of
these errors resulted in an increase to deferred income tax liabilities and a corresponding
decrease to retained earnings of $14,785,000 as of January 1, 2007.
A summary of the effects of the correction of the errors on our Condensed Consolidated Balance
Sheet as of September 30, 2010, is presented in the table below:

Income Taxes [Abstract] | |
INCOME TAXES |
NOTE 4: INCOME TAXES
Our income tax provision and the corresponding annual effective tax rate are based on expected
income, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available in the various jurisdictions
in which we operate. For interim financial reporting, except in circumstances as described in the
following paragraph, we estimate the annual effective tax rate based on projected taxable income
for the full year and record a quarterly tax provision in accordance with the expected annual
effective tax rate. As the year progresses, we refine the estimates of the year’s taxable income as
new information becomes available, including year-to-date financial results. This continual
estimation process often results in a change to our expected annual effective tax rate for the
year. When this occurs, we adjust the income tax provision during the quarter in which the change
in estimate occurs so that the year-to-date income tax provision reflects the expected annual
effective tax rate. Significant judgment is required in determining our annual effective tax rate
and in evaluating our tax positions.
When application of the expected annual effective tax rate is not reliable and distorts the income tax provision for an
interim period, we calculate the income tax provision or benefit using the year-to-date effective tax rate in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 740-270-30-18.
This cut-off method results in an income tax provision or benefit based solely on the
year-to-date pretax income or loss as adjusted for permanent differences on a pro rata basis.
We recognize an income tax benefit associated with an uncertain tax position when, in our judgment,
it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing
authority. For a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, we
initially and subsequently measure the income tax benefit as the largest amount that we judge to
have a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing
authority. Our liability associated with unrecognized tax benefits is adjusted periodically due to
changing circumstances, such as the progress of tax audits, case law developments and new or
emerging legislation. Such adjustments are recognized entirely in the period in which they are
identified. We consider resolution for an issue to occur at the earlier of settlement of an
examination, the expiration of the statute of limitations, or when the issue is effectively
settled. Our income tax provision includes the net impact of changes in the liability for
unrecognized tax benefits and subsequent adjustments as we consider appropriate.
We record deferred tax assets to the extent we believe these assets will more likely than not be
realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence,
including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, tax planning actions and
strategies, projected future taxable income and recent financial operating results. If our determination regarding the realizability of our deferred tax assets changes, we
would then adjust the valuation allowance.
We recorded income tax benefits from continuing operations of $47,938,000 for the nine months ended
September 30, 2011 compared to $61,491,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2010. The 2011
decrease in our income tax benefit, after the effect of the pretax loss at the statutory rate,
resulted largely from a decrease in permanent income tax benefits from charitable contributions and
an increase in discrete income tax adjustments. We recorded an income tax provision from continuing
operations of $29,833,000 in the third quarter of 2011 compared to an income tax benefit of
$6,048,000 in the third quarter of 2010. The current quarter’s income tax provision is the amount
required so that the year-to-date benefit reflects the expected annual effective tax rate.

MEDIUM-TERM INVESTMENTS |
NOTE 5: MEDIUM-TERM INVESTMENTS
We held investments in money market and other money funds at The Reserve, an investment management
company specializing in such funds, as follows: September 30, 2011 — $0, December 31, 2010 —
$5,531,000 and September 30, 2010 — $5,531,000. The substantial majority of our investment was held
in the Reserve International Liquidity Fund, Ltd. On September 15, 2008, Lehman Brothers Holdings
Inc. filed for bankruptcy protection. In the following days, The Reserve announced that it was
closing all of its money funds, some of which owned Lehman Brothers securities, and was suspending
redemptions from and purchases of its funds, including the Reserve International Liquidity Fund.
As a result of the temporary suspension of redemptions and the uncertainty as to the timing of such
redemptions, during 2008 we changed the classification of our investments in The Reserve funds from
cash and cash equivalents to medium-term investments. We reduced the carrying value of our
investment to its estimated fair value of $3,630,000 and $3,910,000 as of December 31, 2010 and
September 30, 2010, respectively. See Note 7 for further discussion of the fair value
determination.
During January 2011, we received $3,630,000 from the Reserve representing the final redemption of
the investment. As a result of this redemption, we reclassified our investments in The Reserve
funds from medium-term investments to cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2010.

NOTE 13: STANDBY LETTERS OF CREDIT
We provide certain third parties with irrevocable standby letters of credit in the normal
course of business. We use commercial banks to issue such letters of credit to back our obligations
to pay or perform when required to do so according to the requirements of an underlying agreement.
The standby letters of credit listed below are cancelable only at the option of the beneficiaries
who are authorized to draw drafts on the issuing bank up to the face amount of the standby letter
of credit in accordance with its terms.
Our standby letters of credit as of September 30, 2011 are summarized in the table below:
Since banks consider standby letters of credit as contingent extensions of credit, we are
required to pay a fee until they expire or are canceled. Substantially all of our standby letters
of credit have a one-year term and are automatically renewed unless cancelled with the approval of
the beneficiary. Of the total $63,928,000 outstanding standby letters of credit as of September 30,
2011, $60,896,000 is backed by our $1,500,000,000 bank credit facility which expires November 16,
2012.

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS |
NOTE 6: DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
During the normal course of operations, we are exposed to market risks including fluctuations in
interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and commodity pricing. From time to time, and
consistent with our risk management policies, we use derivative instruments to hedge against these
market risks. We do not utilize derivative instruments for trading or other speculative purposes.
The accounting for gains and losses that result from changes in the fair value of derivative
instruments depends on whether the derivatives have been designated and qualify as hedging
instruments and the type of hedging relationship. The interest rate swap agreements described below
were designated as either fair value hedges or cash flow hedges. The changes in fair value of our
interest rate swap fair value hedges are recorded as interest expense consistent with the change in
the fair value of the hedged items attributable to the risk being hedged. The changes in fair value
of our interest rate swap cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income
AOCI and are reclassified into interest expense in the same period the hedged items affect
earnings.
Derivative instruments are recognized at fair value in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheets. Fair values of derivative instruments designated as hedging instruments are as
follows:
We use interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges to minimize the variability in
cash flows of liabilities or forecasted transactions caused by fluctuations in interest rates. In
December 2007, we issued $325,000,000 of floating-rate notes due in 2010 that bore interest at
3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 1.25% per annum. Concurrently, we entered into a
3-year interest rate swap agreement in the stated amount of $325,000,000. Under this agreement, we
paid a fixed interest rate of 5.25% and received 3-month LIBOR plus 1.25% per annum. Concurrent
with each quarterly interest payment, the portion of this swap related to that interest payment was
settled and the associated realized gain or loss was recognized. This swap agreement terminated
December 15, 2010, coinciding with the maturity of the notes due in 2010.
Additionally, during 2007, we entered into fifteen forward starting interest rate swap agreements
for a total stated amount of $1,500,000,000. Upon the 2007 and 2008 issuances of the related
fixed-rate debt, we terminated and settled these forward starting swaps for cash payments of
$89,777,000. Amounts accumulated in other comprehensive income (OCI) are being amortized to
interest expense over the term of the related debt. For the 12-month period ending September 30,
2012, we estimate that $6,362,000 of the pretax loss accumulated in OCI will be reclassified to
earnings.
The effects of changes in the fair values of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges on the
accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income are as follows:
We use interest rate swap agreements designated as fair value hedges to minimize exposure to
changes in the fair value of fixed-rate debt that results from fluctuations in the benchmark
interest rates for such debt. In June 2011, we issued $500,000,000 of 6.50% fixed-rate notes due in
2016. Concurrently, we entered into interest rate swap agreements in the stated amount of
$500,000,000. Under these agreements, we paid 6-month LIBOR plus a spread of 4.05%
and received a fixed interest rate of 6.50%. Additionally, in June 2011, we entered into interest
rate swap agreements on our
$150,000,000 of 10.125% fixed-rate notes due in 2015. Under these
agreements, we paid 6-month LIBOR plus a spread of 8.03% and received a fixed
interest rate of 10.125%. In August 2011, we terminated and settled these interest rate swap
agreements for $25,382,000 of cash proceeds. The $23,387,000 forward component of the settlement
(cash proceeds less $1,995,000 of accrued
interest) was added to the carrying value of the related
debt and is being amortized as a reduction to interest expense over the remaining lives of the
related debt using the effective interest method. During the three and nine months ended September
30, 2011, $320,000 was amortized to earnings as a reduction to interest expense.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS |
NOTE 16: NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
ACCOUNTING STANDARDS RECENTLY ADOPTED
ENHANCED DISCLOSURES FOR FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS As of and for the interim period ended
March 31, 2011, we adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2010-06, “Improving Disclosures
about Fair Value Measurements” as it relates to separate disclosures about purchases, sales,
issuances and settlements applicable to Level 3 measurements. Our adoption of this standard had no
impact on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
PRESENTATION OF OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME As of and for the interim period ended June 30, 2011,
we early adopted ASU No. 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income.” This standard eliminates
the option to present components of other comprehensive income (OCI) as part of the statement of
shareholders’ equity. The amendments in this standard require that all nonowner changes in
shareholders’ equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income
or in two separate but consecutive statements. Our Condensed Consolidated Statements of
Comprehensive Income conform to the presentation requirements of this standard.
ACCOUNTING STANDARD RECENTLY ISSUED
AMENDMENTS TO FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT REQUIREMENTS In May 2011, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement
and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs.” The amendments in the ASU achieve the
objectives of developing common fair value measurement and disclosure requirements in U.S. GAAP and
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) and improving their understandability. Some of
the requirements clarify the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement
requirements while other amendments change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair
value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The amendments in this ASU are
effective prospectively for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with no
early adoption permitted. We will adopt this standard as of and for the interim period ending March
31, 2012. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on our condensed
consolidated financial statements.
AMENDMENTS ON GOODWILL IMPAIRMENT TESTING In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-08,
“Testing Goodwill for Impairment” which amends the goodwill impairment testing guidance in
ASC 350-20, “Goodwill.” Under the amended guidance, an entity
has the option of performing a qualitative assessment when testing goodwill for impairment. The
two-step impairment test would only be required if, on the basis of the qualitative factors, an
entity determines that the fair value of the reporting unit is more likely than not (a likelihood
of more than 50%) less than the carrying amount. Additionally, this ASU revises the examples of
events and circumstances that an entity should consider when determining if an interim goodwill
impairment test is required. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual and interim
goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, with early
adoption permitted. We will adopt this standard as of and for the interim period ending March 31,
2012. We do not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on our condensed
consolidated financial statements.
ENHANCED DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS ON MULTIEMPLOYER BENEFIT PLANS In September 2011, the FASB issued
ASU No. 2011-09, “Disclosures About an Employer’s Participation in a Multiemployer Plan” which
increases the quantitative and qualitative disclosures an employer is required to provide about its
participation in significant multiemployer plans that offer pension and other postretirement
benefits. The ASU’s objective is to enhance the transparency of disclosures about (1) the
significant multiemployer plans in which an employer participates, (2) the level of the employer’s
participation in those plans, (3) the financial health of the plans and (4) the nature of the
employer’s commitments to the plans. This ASU is effective for annual periods ending after December
15, 2011. We will adopt this standard as of and for our annual period ending December 31, 2011.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
NOTE 19: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
We are a defendant in various lawsuits in the ordinary course of business. It is not possible
to determine with precision the outcome, or the amount of liability, if any, under these lawsuits,
especially where the cases involve possible jury trials with as yet undetermined jury panels.
In addition to these lawsuits in which we are involved in the ordinary course of business, certain
other material legal proceedings are more specifically described below. At this time, we cannot
determine the likelihood or reasonably estimate a range of loss pertaining to these matters.
PERCHLOROETHYLENE CASES
We are a defendant in cases involving perchloroethylene (perc), which was a product
manufactured by our former Chemicals business. Perc is a cleaning solvent used in dry cleaning and
other industrial applications. These cases involve various allegations of groundwater contamination
or exposure to perc allegedly resulting in personal injury. Vulcan is vigorously defending all of
these cases, which are listed below:
FLORIDA ANTITRUST LITIGATION — Our subsidiary, Florida Rock Industries, Inc., has been named as a
defendant in a number of class action lawsuits filed in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of Florida. The lawsuits were filed by several ready-mixed concrete producers and
construction companies against a number of concrete and cement producers and importers in Florida.
There are now two consolidated amended complaints: (1) on behalf of direct independent ready-mixed
concrete producers, and (2) on behalf of indirect users of ready-mixed concrete. The other
defendants include Cemex Inc., Tarmac America LLC, and VCNA Prestige Ready-Mix Florida, Inc. The
complaints allege various violations under the federal antitrust laws, including price fixing and
market allocations. We have no reason to believe that Florida Rock is liable for any of the matters
alleged in the complaint, and we are defending the case vigorously. Discovery is ongoing. Trial is
scheduled for July 2012.
IDOT/JOLIET ROAD — In September 2001, we were named a defendant in a suit brought by the Illinois
Department of Transportation (IDOT), in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Chancery Division,
Illinois, alleging damage to a 0.9-mile section of Joliet Road that bisects our McCook quarry in
McCook, Illinois, a Chicago suburb. On May 18, 2010, we settled this lawsuit for $40,000,000 and
recognized the full settlement as a charge to operations in the second quarter of 2010. Under the
terms of the settlement we paid IDOT $20,000,000 in May 2010 and we paid the second installment of
$20,000,000 on February 17, 2011. We have taken appropriate actions, including participating in two
arbitrations in 2011, to recover the settlement amount in excess of the self-insured retention of
$2,000,000, as well as a portion of our defense costs, from our insurers. In February 2011, we
completed the first arbitration with two of our three insurers. The arbitration panel awarded us a
total of $25,546,000 in payment of the insurers’ share of the settlement amount and attorneys’
fees. This award was recorded as income in the first quarter of 2011. In September 2011, we
completed the second arbitration with the third and final insurer. The arbitration panel awarded us
a total of $24,111,000 in payment of the third insurer’s share of the settlement amount, attorneys’
fees and interest. This award was recorded in the third quarter of 2011.
LOWER PASSAIC RIVER CLEAN-UP — We have been sued as a third-party defendant in New Jersey
Department of Environmental Protection, et al. v. Occidental Chemical Corporation, et al., a case
brought by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection in the New Jersey Superior Court.
The third-party complaint was filed on February 4, 2009. This suit by the New Jersey Department of
Environmental Protection seeks recovery of past and future clean-up costs, as well as unspecified
economic damages, punitive damages, penalties and a variety of other forms of relief arising from
alleged discharges into the Lower Passaic River (the “River”) of dioxin and other unspecified
hazardous substances. Our former Chemicals business operated a plant adjacent to the River and has
been sued, along with approximately 300 other third-party defendants. This case is in the early
stages of discovery. It is unclear at this time what contaminants and legal issues will ultimately
be presented at trial or what parties will ultimately participate in the trial. It is also unknown
at this time, what, if any, substances we may have discharged into the River. A liability trial is
scheduled for April 2013. A separate damages trial, if required, is scheduled for January 2014.
Additionally, Vulcan and approximately 70 other companies are parties to a May 2007 Administrative
Order of Consent with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to perform a Remedial
Investigation/Feasibility Study of the contamination in the lower 17 miles of the River. This study
is ongoing and may take several more years to complete.
It is not possible to predict with certainty the ultimate outcome of these and other legal
proceedings in which we are involved and a number of factors, including developments in ongoing
discovery or adverse rulings, could cause actual losses to differ materially from accrued costs. No
liability was recorded for claims and litigation for which a loss was determined to be only
reasonably possible or for which a loss could not be reasonably estimated. In addition, losses on
certain claims and litigation described above may be subject to limitations on a per occurrence
basis by excess insurance, as described in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS |
NOTE 2: DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In 2005, we sold substantially all the assets of our Chemicals business to Basic Chemicals, a
subsidiary of Occidental Chemical Corporation. In addition to the initial cash proceeds, Basic
Chemicals was required to make payments under two earn-out agreements subject to certain
conditions. During 2007, we received the final payment under the ECU (electrochemical unit)
earn-out, bringing cumulative cash receipts to its $150,000,000 cap.
Proceeds under the second earn-out agreement are based on the performance of the hydrochlorocarbon
product HCC-240fa (commonly referred to as 5CP) from the closing of the transaction through
December 31, 2012 (5CP earn-out). The primary determinant of the value for this earn-out is the
level of growth in 5CP sales volume. At the June 7, 2005 closing date, the value assigned to the
5CP earn-out was limited to an amount that resulted in no gain on the sale of the business, as the
gain was contingent in nature. A gain on disposal of the Chemicals business is recognized to the
extent cumulative cash receipts under the 5CP earn-out exceed the initial value recorded.
In March 2011, we received a payment of $12,284,000 under the 5CP earn-out related to performance
during the year ended December 31, 2010. During the first quarter of 2010, we received $8,794,000
under the 5CP earn-out related to the year ended December 31, 2009. These receipts were recorded as
gains on disposal of discontinued operations. Through September 30, 2011, we have received a total
of $54,991,000 under the 5CP earn-out, a total of $21,890,000 in excess of the receivable recorded
on the date of disposition.
We are liable for a cash transaction bonus payable to certain former key Chemicals employees. This
transaction bonus is payable if cash receipts realized from the two earn-out agreements described
above exceed an established minimum threshold. The bonus is payable annually based on the prior
year’s results. Payments for this transaction bonus were $1,228,000 during the first nine months of
2011 and $882,000 during the first nine months of 2010.
The financial results of the Chemicals business are classified as discontinued operations in the
accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for all periods presented.
There were no net sales or revenues from discontinued operations during the nine month periods
ended September 30, 2011 and 2010. Results from discontinued operations are as follows:
The pretax loss from results of discontinued operations of ($4,068,000) for the third quarter of
2011 was due primarily to general and product liability costs, including legal defense costs, and
environmental remediation costs associated with our former Chemicals business. The pretax loss from
results of discontinued operations of ($481,000) for the nine months ended September 30, 2011
includes a $7,500,000 pretax gain recognized in the first quarter on recovery from an insurer in
lawsuits involving perchloroethylene offset by general and product liability costs, including legal
defense costs, and environmental remediation costs. The 2010 pretax earnings from results of
discontinued operations of $4,425,000 for the third quarter and $3,565,000 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2010 are due primarily to $7,600,000 of pretax gains recognized from insurance
recoveries in percholoroethylene lawsuits. These gains were offset in part by general and product
liability costs, including legal defense costs, and environmental remediation costs associated with
our former Chemicals business.

CREDIT FACILITIES, SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS AND LONG-TERM DEBT |
NOTE 11: CREDIT FACILITIES, SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS AND
LONG-TERM DEBT
Short-term borrowings are summarized as follows:
We utilize our $1,500,000 bank line of credit to fund our working capital and for general
corporate purposes. The line of credit expires November 16, 2012. As of September 30, 2011, there
were no borrowings under the line of credit. Interest rates referable to borrowings under the line
of credit are determined at the time of borrowing based on current market conditions.
In the normal course of business, we maintain bank balances for which we are credited with earnings
allowances toward our cash management related service fees. To the extent the earnings allowances
are not sufficient to fully cover the related fees for these non-credit services, we pay the
difference.
In June 2011, we issued $1,100,000,000 of long-term notes in two series, as follows: $500,000,000
of 6.50% notes due in 2016 and $600,000,000 of 7.50% notes due in 2021. These notes were issued
principally to:
The terminated $450,000,000 floating-rate term loan due in 2015 was established in July 2010 in
order to repay the $100,000,000 outstanding balance of our floating-rate term loan due in 2011 and
all outstanding commercial paper. Unamortized deferred financing costs of $2,423,000 were
recognized in June 2011 as a component of interest expense upon the termination of this
floating-rate term loan.
The June 2011 purchases of the 5.60% and 6.30% notes cost $294,533,000, representing a $19,534,000
premium above the $274,999,000 face value of the notes. This premium primarily reflects the trading
price of the notes at the time of purchase relative to par value. Additionally, $4,711,000 of
expense associated with a proportional amount of unamortized discounts, deferred financing costs
and amounts accumulated in OCI was recognized in June 2011 upon the partial termination of the
notes. The combined expense of $24,245,000 is presented in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Comprehensive Income as a component of interest expense for the nine month period
ended September 30, 2011.
As of September 30, 2011, $35,000 of our long-term debt, including current maturities, was secured.
This secured debt was assumed with the November 2007 acquisition of Florida Rock. All other debt
obligations, both short-term and long-term, are unsecured.
Long-term debt is summarized as follows:
The estimated fair value of total long-term debt presented in the table above was determined
by discounting expected future cash flows based on credit-adjusted interest rates on U.S. Treasury
bills, notes or bonds, as appropriate. The fair value estimates were based on information available
to us as of the respective balance sheet dates. Although we are not aware of any factors that would
significantly affect the estimated fair value amounts, such amounts have not been comprehensively
revalued since those dates.
Our current bank credit facility and the indentures governing our notes contain a covenant limiting
our total debt as a percentage of total capital to 65%. Our total debt as a percentage of total
capital was 42.1% as of September 30, 2011; 40.7% as of December 31, 2010; and 40.7% as of
September 30, 2010.
We plan to replace our $1,500,000,000 bank credit facility expiring November 16, 2012 with a
$500,000,000 five-year credit facility. The new revolving credit facility is being structured as an
asset based lending facility and is projected to close in November 2011.

GOODWILL |
NOTE 15: GOODWILL
Changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by reportable segment from December 31, 2010 to
September 30, 2011 are summarized below:
We test goodwill for impairment on an annual basis or more frequently if
events or circumstances change in a manner that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of
a reporting unit below its carrying value. While we have not completed our annual test and have not identified
any events or changes in circumstances that indicate the fair value of any of our reporting units is below its
carrying value, the timing of a sustained recovery in the construction industry may have a significant effect on the
fair value of our reporting units. A significant decrease in the estimated fair value of one or more of our reporting
units could result in the recognition of a material, noncash write-down of goodwill that would reduce equity and result
in an increase in our total debt as a percentage of total capital (42.1% as of September 30, 2011). Our current bank
credit facility and the indenture governing our notes contain a covenant limiting our total debt as a percentage of total
capital to 65%. We believe that it is highly unlikely that any potential write-down in goodwill would result in a violation of this covenant.
