Tom Hill, Vulcan Materials’ Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our teams’ solid execution helped us overcome challenging weather conditions throughout much of the first quarter.  Margins expanded despite lower aggregates shipments, demonstrating the durability of our aggregates business and its attractive compounding growth characteristics.  Aggregates cash gross profit per ton increased 10 percent in the first quarter, with improvements widespread across our footprint.  A consistent focus on our strategic disciplines coupled with continued pricing momentum reinforces our confidence in our full year outlook and our ability to deliver another year of double-digit earnings growth and strong cash generation.”

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
First Quarter Segment Results

Aggregates
Segment gross profit was $303 million ($6.30 per ton).  Cash gross profit per ton improved 10 percent to $8.86 per ton, despite lower shipments due to unfavorable weather conditions throughout most of the quarter.  Improvements in unit profitability were widespread across the Company’s footprint and resulted from continued pricing momentum and solid operational execution.

Price increases effective at the beginning of the year resulted in another quarter of attractive growth.  Freight-adjusted selling prices increased 10 percent versus the prior year, with all markets realizing year-over-year improvement.  Freight-adjusted unit cash cost of sales increased 10 percent, primarily driven by a 7 percent decline in aggregates shipments due to unfavorable weather.  On a trailing-twelve months basis, unit cash cost increased 9 percent, marking the fourth consecutive quarter of unit cost deceleration.

Asphalt and Concrete
Asphalt segment gross profit was $5 million, and cash gross profit was $14 million, a 39 percent improvement over the prior year.  Shipments increased 3 percent, and price improved 6 percent.  Strong shipments in Arizona and California, the Company’s largest asphalt markets, were partially offset by lower shipments in Texas due to weather impacts.  Concrete segment gross profit was a loss of $3 million.  Cash gross profit was $9 million, and unit cash gross profit improved 10 percent despite lower volumes.  The prior year included results from the previously divested concrete assets in Texas.

Selling, Administrative and General (SAG)
SAG expense of $130 million was in line with the Company’s expectations for the first quarter.  On a trailing-twelve months basis, SAG expense was $555 million, or 7.2 percent of total revenues.

Financial Position, Liquidity and Capital Allocation
Capital expenditures were $103 million in the first quarter.  For the full year, the Company expects to spend $625 to $675 million for maintenance and growth projects.  During the quarter, the Company returned $81 million to shareholders through $19 million of common stock repurchases and $62 million of dividends.  The Company also used $550 million of cash on hand to redeem its 2026 notes, resulting in a ratio of total debt to Adjusted EBITDA of 1.7 times, or 1.5 times on a net basis reflecting $300 million of cash on hand.  A strong liquidity and balance sheet profile positions the Company well for continued growth.  The Company’s weighted-average debt maturity was 11 years, and the effective weighted-average interest rate was 4.8 percent.  On a trailing-twelve months basis, return on average invested capital was 16.3 percent, a 260 basis points improvement over the prior year.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Outlook
Regarding the Company’s outlook, Mr. Hill said, “Our operating performance in the first quarter was solid and in line with our expectations.  We remain on track to deliver $2.15 to $2.30 billion of Adjusted EBITDA, marking the fourth consecutive year of double-digit growth.  The pricing environment remains positive, and our focus remains on compounding unit margins through all parts of the cycle, creating value for our shareholders through improving returns on capital.”

All aspects of the Company’s outlook in February remain unchanged.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Because GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis are not accessible, and reconciling information is not available without unreasonable effort, we have not provided reconciliations for forward-looking non-GAAP measures, other than the reconciliation of Projected Adjusted EBITDA as included in Appendix 2 hereto. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENT DISCLAIMER
This document contains forward-looking statements.  Statements that are not historical fact, including statements about Vulcan’s beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements.  Generally, these statements relate to future financial performance, results of operations, business plans or strategies, projected or anticipated revenues, expenses, earnings (including EBITDA and other measures), dividend policy, shipment volumes, pricing, levels of capital expenditures, intended cost reductions and cost savings, anticipated profit improvements and/or planned divestitures and asset sales.  These forward-looking statements are sometimes identified by the use of terms and phrases such as “believe,” “should,” “would,” “expect,” “project,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “will,” “can,” “may” or similar expressions elsewhere in this document.  These statements are subject to numerous risks, uncertainties, and assumptions, including but not limited to general business conditions, competitive factors, pricing, energy costs, and other risks and uncertainties discussed in the reports Vulcan periodically files with the SEC.

Includes product sales (crushed stone, sand and gravel, sand, and other aggregates), as well as freight & delivery costs that we pass along to our customers, and service revenues related to aggregates.
2
Includes product sales, as well as service revenues from our asphalt construction paving business.
3
Freight-adjusted revenues are Aggregates segment sales excluding freight & delivery revenues and other revenues related to services, such as landfill tipping fees, that are derived from our aggregates business.
4
Freight-adjusted sales price is calculated as freight-adjusted revenues divided by aggregates unit shipments.
5
Sales price is calculated by dividing revenues generated from the shipment of product (excluding service revenues  generated by the segments) by total units of the product shipped.


Appendix 1
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

Aggregates segment freight-adjusted revenues is not a Generally Accepted Accounting Principle (GAAP) measure and should not be considered as an alternative to metrics defined by GAAP. We present this metric as it is consistent with the basis by which we review our operating results. We believe that this presentation is consistent with our competitors and meaningful to our investors as it excludes revenues associated with freight & delivery, which are pass-through activities. It also excludes other revenues related to services, such as landfill tipping fees, that are derived from our aggregates business. Additionally, we use this metric as the basis for calculating the average sales price of our aggregates products. Reconciliation of this metric to its nearest GAAP measure is presented below:

At the segment level, freight & delivery revenues include intersegment freight & delivery (which are eliminated at the consolidated level) and freight to   remote distribution sites.

GAAP does not define “cash gross profit,” and it should not be considered as an alternative to earnings measures defined by GAAP. We and the investment community use this metric to assess the operating performance of our business. Additionally, we present this metric as we believe that it closely correlates to long-term shareholder value. Cash gross profit adds back noncash charges for depreciation, depletion, accretion and amortization to gross profit. Segment cash gross profit per unit is computed by dividing segment cash gross profit by units shipped. Segment cash cost of sales per unit is computed by subtracting segment cash gross profit per unit from segment freight-adjusted sales price. Reconciliation of these metrics to their nearest GAAP measures are presented below:

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures (Continued)

GAAP does not define “Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization” (EBITDA), and it should not be considered as an alternative to earnings measures defined by GAAP. We use this metric to assess the operating performance of our business and as a basis for strategic planning and forecasting as we believe that it closely correlates to long-term shareholder value. We do not use this metric as a measure to allocate resources. We adjust EBITDA for certain items to provide a more consistent comparison of earnings performance from period to period. Reconciliation of this metric to its nearest GAAP measure is presented below (numbers may not foot due to rounding):

Because GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis are not accessible, and reconciling information is not available without unreasonable effort, we have not provided reconciliations for forward-looking non-GAAP measures, other than the reconciliation of Projected Adjusted EBITDA as noted above. For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.

Net debt to Adjusted EBITDA is not a GAAP measure and should not be considered as an alternative to metrics defined by GAAP. We, the investment community and credit rating agencies use this metric to assess our leverage. Net debt subtracts cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash from total debt.

We define “Return on Invested Capital” (ROIC) as Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing-twelve months divided by average invested capital (as illustrated below) during the trailing 5-quarters. Our calculation of ROIC is considered a non-GAAP financial measure because we calculate ROIC using the non-GAAP metric EBITDA. We believe that our ROIC metric is meaningful because it helps investors assess how effectively we are deploying our assets. Although ROIC is a standard financial metric, numerous methods exist for calculating a company’s ROIC. As a result, the method we use to calculate our ROIC may differ from the methods used by other companies. This metric is not defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to earnings measures defined by GAAP.
