Description: MLM Martin Marietta Materials January 29, 2026
Martin Marietta Materials (NYSE: MLM) is a natural-resource-based building-materials producer that supplies aggregates, ready-mix concrete, asphalt, cement, and magnesia-based chemicals to U.S. and international construction, rail, agricultural, utility, and environmental markets.
In its most recent quarter (Q2 2024), the company reported revenue of $1.62 billion, a 5 % year-over-year increase, and adjusted earnings per share of $1.12, with an operating margin of roughly 12 %. The cement segment contributed about 22 % of total sales, reflecting continued demand from infrastructure projects.
Key macro drivers include the U.S. construction-spending outlook, which the U.S. Census Bureau projects to grow at an average 3 % annual rate through 2027, and the lingering impact of the 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, which is expected to sustain elevated demand for aggregates and cement. Conversely, the sector remains sensitive to interest-rate cycles and potential slowdowns in residential construction.
