Eagle Materials Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(A) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements as of and for the three-month period ended June 30, 2022, include the accounts of Eagle Materials Inc. and its majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the Company, us, or we) and have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 20, 2022.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the information in the following unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been included. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There have been no recent accounting pronouncements that are expected to materially affect the Company.

(B) SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION

Supplemental cash flow information is as follows:


	For the Three Months Ended June 30,
		2022		2021
	(dollars in thousands)
Cash Payments
Interest	$	1,005	$	2,945
Income Taxes		271		10,010
Operating Cash Flows Used for Operating Leases		2,135		2,030

On April 22, 2022, we purchased the assets of a readymix concrete and aggregates business (the ConAgg Acquisition). The purchase price (Purchase Price) of the ConAgg Acquisition was approximately $121.2 million. The purchase price allocation has not yet been finalized. The Purchase Price and expenses incurred in connection with the ConAgg Acquisition were funded through borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Operations related to the ConAgg Acquisition are included in the Concrete and Aggregates business in our segment reporting from April 22, 2022 through June 30, 2022.

The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the Purchase Price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of June 30, 2022:



	Estimated Fair Value
Working Capital	$	12,130
Property, Plant, and Equipment		39,489
Intangible Assets		30,800
Goodwill		38,743
Total Estimated Purchase Price	$	121,162

The estimated useful lives assigned to Property, Plant, and Equipment range from 5 to 30 years, while the estimated useful lives assigned to Intangible Assets range from 2 to 15 years.

The following table presents the Revenue and Operating Loss related to the ConAgg Acquisition that has been included in our Consolidated Statement of Earnings from April 22, 2022 through June 30, 2022.



	(dollars in thousands)
Revenue	$	11,030
Operating Loss	$	(107	)

Included in Operating Loss shown above is approximately $2.0 million and $1.2 million related to depreciation and amortization and the recording of acquired inventories at fair value, respectively.

(D) REVENUE

We earn Revenue primarily from the sale of products, which include cement, concrete, aggregates, gypsum wallboard, and recycled paperboard. The vast majority of Revenue from the sale of cement, concrete, aggregates, and gypsum wallboard is originated by purchase orders from our customers, who are mostly third-party contractors and suppliers. Revenue from our Recycled Paperboard segment is generated mainly through long-term supply agreements that mature in 2025. We invoice customers upon shipment, and our collection terms range from 30-75 days. Revenue from the sale of cement, concrete, aggregates, and gypsum wallboard not related to long-term supply agreements is recognized upon shipment of the related products to customers, which is when title and ownership are transferred, and the customer is obligated to pay.

Revenue from sales under our long-term supply agreements is also recognized upon transfer of control to the customer, which generally occurs at the time the product is shipped from the production facility or terminal location. Our long-term supply agreements with customers define, among other commitments, the volume of product that we must provide and the volume that the customer must purchase by the end of the defined periods. Pricing structures under our agreements are generally market-based, but are subject to certain contractual adjustments. Shortfall amounts, if applicable under these arrangements, are constrained and not recognized as Revenue until an agreement is reached with the customer and, therefore, are not subject to the risk of reversal.

The Company offers certain of its customers, including those with long-term supply agreements, rebates and incentives, which we treat as variable consideration. We adjust the amount of Revenue recognized for the variable consideration using the most likely amount method based on past history and projected volumes in the rebate and incentive period. Any amounts billed to customers for taxes are excluded from Revenue.

The Company has elected to treat freight and delivery charges we pay for the delivery of goods to our customers as a fulfilment activity rather than a separate performance obligation. When we arrange for a third party to deliver products to customers, fees for shipping and handling that are billed to the customer are recorded as Revenue, while costs we incur for shipping and handling are recorded as expenses and included in Cost of Goods Sold.

Other Non-Operating Income includes lease and rental income, asset sale income, non-inventoried aggregates sales income, distribution center income, and trucking income, as well as other miscellaneous revenue items and costs that have not been allocated to a business segment.

See Footnote (N) to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for disaggregation of revenue by segment.

(E) ACCOUNTS AND NOTES RECEIVABLE

Accounts Receivable are shown net of the allowance for doubtful accounts totaling $6.7 million at both June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers’ financial condition and generally require no collateral from our customers. The allowance for non-collection of receivables is based upon analysis of economic trends in the construction industry, detailed analysis of the expected collectability of accounts receivable that are past due, and the expected collectability of overall receivables. We have no significant credit risk concentration among our diversified customer base.

We had Notes Receivable totaling approximately $8.5 million at June 30, 2022, none of which was classified as current. We lend funds to certain companies in the ordinary course of business, and the notes bear interest, on average, at 3.1%. Remaining unpaid amounts, plus accrued interest, mature in fiscal 2025. The notes are collateralized by certain assets of the borrowers, namely property and equipment, and are generally payable monthly. We monitor the credit risk of each borrower by assessing the timeliness of payments, credit history, credit metrics, and our ongoing interactions with each borrower.

(F) INVENTORIES

Inventories are stated at the lower of average cost (including applicable material, labor, depreciation, and plant overhead) or net realizable value. Raw Materials and Materials-in-Progress include clinker, which is an intermediary product before it is ground into cement powder. Quantities of Raw Materials and Materials-in-Progress, Aggregates, and Coal inventories, are based on measured volumes, subject to estimation based on the size and location of the inventory piles, and are converted to tonnage using standard inventory density factors. Inventories consist of the following:


	June 30,		March 31,
	2022		2022

Raw Materials and Materials-in-Progress	$	77,652	$	81,308

Other		7,069		6,729
	$	88,280	$	86,754

(H) LEASES

We lease certain real estate, buildings, and equipment. Certain of these leases contain escalations of rent over the term of the lease, as well as options for us to extend the term of the lease at the end of the original term. These extensions range from periods of one to 20 years. Our lease agreements do not contain material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. In calculating the present value of future minimum lease payments, we use the rate implicit in the lease if it can be determined. Otherwise, we use our incremental borrowing rate in effect at the commencement of the lease to determine the present value of the future minimum lease payments. Additionally, we lease certain equipment under short-term leases with initial terms of less than 12 months, which are not recorded on the balance sheet.

Lease expense for our operating and short-term leases is as follows:


	For the Three Months Ended June 30,
	2022		2021
	(dollars in thousands)
Operating Lease Cost	$	1,727	$	1,514

(I) Share-BASED EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION

On August 7, 2013, our stockholders approved the Eagle Materials Inc. Amended and Restated Incentive Plan (the Plan), which increased the shares we are authorized to issue as awards by 3,000,000 (1,500,000 of which may be stock awards). Under the terms of the Plan, we can issue equity awards, including stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stock, and stock appreciation rights, to employees of the Company and members of the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors specifies grant terms for awards under the Plan.

Long-Term Compensation Plans

OPTIONS

In May 2022, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors approved the granting to certain officers and key employees an aggregate of 25,192 performance-vesting stock options that will be earned only if certain performance conditions are satisfied (the Fiscal 2023 Employee Performance Stock Option Grant). The performance criteria for the Fiscal 2023 Employee Performance Stock Option Grant are based upon the achievement of certain levels of return on equity (as defined in the option agreements), ranging from 10.0% to 20.0%, for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023. All stock options will be earned if the return on equity is 20.0% or greater, and the percentage of shares earned will be reduced proportionately to approximately 66.7% if the return on equity is 10.0%. If the Company does not achieve a return on equity of at least 10.0%, all granted stock options will be forfeited. Following any such reduction, restrictions on the earned stock options will lapse and the earned options will vest ratably over four years, with the initial fourth vesting promptly following the determination date, and the remaining options vesting on March 31, 2024 through 2026. The stock options have a term of 10 years from the grant date. The Compensation Committee also approved the granting of 20,994 time-vesting stock options to the same officers and key employees, which vest ratably over four years (the Fiscal 2023 Employee Time-Vesting Stock Option Grant).

The Fiscal 2023 Employee Performance Stock Option Grant and the Fiscal 2023 Employee Time-Vesting Stock Option Grant were valued at their grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The weighted-average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes model to value the option awards in fiscal 2023 are as follows:



Dividend Yield		0.8	%
Expected Volatility		38.2	%
Risk-Free Interest Rate		2.9	%
Expected Life	6.0 years

In addition to the stock options described above, from time to time we issue stock options to certain employees. Any options issued are valued using the Black-Scholes options pricing model on the grant date, and expensed over the vesting period.

Stock option expense for all outstanding stock option awards totaled approximately $0.8 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. At June 30, 2022, there was approximately $5.7 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to outstanding stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.5 years.

The following table represents stock option activity for the three months ended June 30, 2022:


	Number of Shares			Weighted- Average Exercise Price
Outstanding Options at March 31, 2022		456,849		$	83.81
Granted		51,522		$	125.88

Outstanding Options at June 30, 2022		491,212		$	88.85
Options Exercisable at June 30, 2022		298,520
Weighted-Average Fair Value of Options Granted During the Year	$	125.88

The following table summarizes information about stock options outstanding at June 30, 2022:


	Options Outstanding						Options Exercisable
Range of Exercise Prices	Number of Shares Outstanding		Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Life (in years)		Weighted- Average Exercise Price		Number of Shares Outstanding		Weighted- Average Exercise Price
$59.32 - $81.56		172,395		7.08	$	62.87		85,585	$	64.96
$87.37 - $93.03		151,569		6.58	$	91.57		109,241	$	91.57

		491,212		6.96	$	88.85		298,520	$	89.00

At June 30, 2022, the aggregate intrinsic value for both the outstanding and exercisable options was approximately $10.4 million and $6.3 million, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the three months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately $1.0 million.

RESTRICTED STOCK

In May 2022, the Compensation Committee approved the granting to certain officers and key employees an aggregate of 50,783 shares of performance-vesting restricted stock that will be earned if certain performance conditions are satisfied (the Fiscal 2023 Employee Restricted Stock Performance Award). The performance criteria for the Fiscal 2023 Employee Restricted Stock Performance Award are based upon the achievement of certain levels of return on equity (as defined in the award agreement), ranging from 10.0% to 20.0%, for the fiscal

year ending March 31, 2023. All restricted shares will be earned if the return on equity is 20.0% or greater, and the percentage of shares earned will be reduced proportionately to approximately 66.7% if the return on equity is 10.0%. If the Company does not achieve a return on equity of at least 10.0%, all awards will be forfeited. Following any such reduction, restrictions on the earned shares will lapse ratably over four years, with the initial fourth lapsing promptly following the determination date, and the remaining restrictions lapsing on March 31, 2024 through 2026. The Compensation Committee also approved the granting of 42,545 shares of time-vesting restricted stock to the same officers and key employees, which vest ratably over four years (the Fiscal 2023 Employee Restricted Stock Time-Vesting Award). The Fiscal 2023 Employee Restricted Stock Performance Award and the Fiscal 2023 Employee Restricted Stock Time-Vesting Award were valued at the closing price of the stock on the grant date and are being expensed over a four-year period.

In addition to the restricted stock described above, from time to time we issue restricted stock to certain employees. These awards are valued at the closing price of the stock on the grant date, and expensed over the vesting period.

The fair value of restricted stock is based on the stock price on the grant date. The following table summarizes the activity for nonvested restricted shares during the three months ended June 30, 2022:


	Number of Shares			Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
Nonvested Restricted Stock at March 31, 2022		258,779		$	85.34
Granted		96,135		$	126.01
Vested		(28,746	)	$	133.85
Forfeited		—		$	—
Nonvested Restricted Stock at June 30, 2022		326,168		$	94.66

Expense related to restricted shares was approximately $4.3 million and $1.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. At June 30, 2022, there was approximately $25.6 million of unearned compensation from restricted stock, which will be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.7 years.

The number of shares available for future grants of stock options, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, and restricted stock under the Plan was 3,271,524 at June 30, 2022.

(J) COMPUTATION OF EARNINGS PER SHARE

The calculation of basic and diluted common shares outstanding is as follows:


	For the Three Months Ended June 30,
	2022			2021
Weighted-Average Shares of Common Stock Outstanding		37,982,580			42,028,619
Effect of Dilutive Shares

Weighted-Average Common Stock and Dilutive Securities Outstanding		38,222,949			42,437,366
Shares Excluded Due to Anti-Dilution Effects		32,656			3,578

(K) PENSION AND EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

We sponsor several single-employer defined benefit plans and defined contribution plans, which together cover substantially all our employees. Benefits paid under the single-employer defined benefit plans covering certain hourly employees were historically based on years of service and the employee’s qualifying compensation over the last few years of employment. Over the last several years, these plans have been frozen to new participants and new benefits, with the last plan becoming frozen during fiscal 2020. Our defined benefit plans are all fully funded, with plan assets exceeding the benefit obligation at March 31, 2022. Due to the frozen status, and current

funding of the single-employer pension plans, our expected pension expense for fiscal 2023 is less than $0.1 million.

(L) INCOME TAXES

Income Taxes for the interim periods presented have been included in the accompanying financial statements on the basis of an estimated annual effective tax rate. In addition to the amount of tax resulting from applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to pre-tax income, we will include, when appropriate, certain items treated as discrete events to arrive at an estimated overall tax amount. The effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was approximately 23%, which was higher than the effective tax rate of 22% for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The effective tax rate was higher than the U.S. Statutory rate of 21% mainly due to state income taxes, partially offset by a benefit recognized related to percentage depletion.

(M) LONG-TERM DEBT

Long-term Debt at June 30, 2022 was as follows:


	June 30,			March 31,
	2022			2022
	(dollars in thousands)
Revolving Credit Facility	$	181,000		$	200,000
2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes Due 2031		750,000			750,000
Term Loan		200,000			—
Total Debt		1,131,000			950,000
Less: Unamortized Discounts and Debt Issuance Costs		(11,418	)		(11,735	)
Long-term Debt	$	1,119,582		$	938,265

Revolving Credit Facility

On May 5, 2022, we amended the revolving credit facility (such facility, as amended, the Revolving Credit Facility). The Revolving Credit Facility includes a $200.0 million term loan facility (the Term Loan) and also provides the Company the option to increase the borrowing capacity by up to $375.0 million (for a total borrowing capacity of $1,125 million), provided that the existing lenders, or new lenders, agree to such increase. The Revolving Credit Facility includes a $40.0 million letter of credit facility and a swingline loan sub-facility of $25.0 million, and expires on May 5, 2027.

The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary covenants for an unsecured investment-grade facility, including covenants that restrict the Company’s and/or its subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional debt; encumber assets; merge with or transfer or sell assets to other persons; and enter into certain affiliate transactions. The Revolving Credit Facility also requires the Company to maintain at the end of each fiscal quarter a Leverage Ratio of 3.50:1.00 or less and an Interest Coverage Ratio (both ratios, as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) equal to or greater than 2.50 to 1.00 (collectively, the Financial Covenants).

At the Company’s option, outstanding loans under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest, at a variable rate equal to either (i) the adjusted term SOFR rate (secured overnight financing rate), plus 10 bps, plus an agreed spread (ranging from 100 to 162.5 basis points, which is established based on the Company's credit rating); (ii) in respect of any Revolving Loans (until such time as the then-existing Benchmark (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) is replaced in accordance with the Revolving Credit Facility), the adjusted daily simple SOFR rate, plus 10 bps, plus an agreed spread (ranging from 100 to 162.5 basis points, which is established based on the Company's credit rating) or (iii) an Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility), which is the highest of (a) the Prime Rate (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) in effect on any applicable day, (b) the NYFRB Rate (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) in effect on any applicable day, plus ½ of 1%, and (c) the Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) for a one-month interest period on any applicable day, or if such day is not a business day, the immediately preceding business day, plus 1.0%, in each case plus an agreed upon spread (ranging from 0 to 62.5 basis points) which is established quarterly based on the Company's credit rating. The Company is also required to pay a facility fee on unused available borrowings

under the Revolving Credit Facility ranging from 9 to 22.5 basis points which is established based on the Company's then credit rating.

The Company pays each lender a participation fee with respect to such lender’s participations in letters of credit, which fee accrues at the same Applicable Rate (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) used to determine the interest rate applicable to Eurodollar Revolving Loans (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) plus a fronting fee for each letter of credit issued by the issuing bank in an amount equal to 12.5 basis points per annum on the daily maximum amount then available to be drawn under such letter of credit. The Company also pays each issuing bank such bank’s standard fees with respect to issuance, amendment or extensions of letters of credit and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges relating to such issuing bank’s letters of credit from time to time.

There was $181.0 million of outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, plus $6.4 million outstanding letters of credit as of June 30, 2022, leaving us with $562.6 million of available borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, net of the outstanding letters of credit. We were in compliance with all Financial Covenants on June 30, 2022; therefore, all $562.6 million is available for future borrowings.

Term Loan

On May 5, 2022, we borrowed the $200.0 million Term Loan under the Revolving Credit Facility, and used these proceeds to, among other things, pay down a portion of the Revolving Credit Facility. The Term Loan requires quarterly principle payments of $2.5 million, with any unpaid amounts due upon maturity on May 5, 2027. At the Company’s option, principal amounts outstanding under the Term Loan bear interest as set forth in the Revolving Credit Facility (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, at a daily simple SOFR rate unless and until such time as the then-existing Benchmark (as defined in the Revolving Credit Facility) is replaced in accordance with the Revolving Credit Facility).

2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes Due 2031

On July 1, 2021, we issued $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2.500% senior notes due July 2031 (the 2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes). The 2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are not guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries. The 2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes were issued net of original issue discount of $6.3 million and have an effective interest rate of approximately 2.6%. The original issue discount is being amortized by the effective interest method over the ten-year term of the notes. The 2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes are redeemable prior to April 1, 2031 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes being redeemed, plus the present value of remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest from the applicable redemption date to April 1, 2031, discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis at the Treasury rate plus 20 basis points. The 2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes are redeemable on or after April 1, 2031 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date. If we experience certain change of control triggering events, we would be required to offer to repurchase the 2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes being repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the applicable redemption date. The indenture governing the 2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes contains certain covenants that limit our ability to create or permit to exist certain liens; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; and consolidate, merge, or transfer all or substantially all of our assets, and provides for certain events of default that, if any occurred, would permit or require the principal of and accrued interest on the 2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes to become or be declared due and payable.

Retirement of Debt

In connection with the issuance of the 2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes on July 1, 2021, we repaid all outstanding amounts under and terminated our $665.0 million term loan credit agreement (the Term Loan Credit Agreement). The Term Loan Credit Agreement was used to pay a portion of the purchase price for the Kosmos Acquisition and fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Kosmos Acquisition in March 2020. Additionally, on July 19, 2021 (the first business day following the redemption date), we redeemed and paid in full all outstanding amounts due under the $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.500% senior notes (4.500% Senior Unsecured Notes) due August 2026, using proceeds from the 2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes, the Revolving Credit Facility and cash on hand. The 4.500% Senior Unsecured Notes redemption price included all of the outstanding principal and accrued interest through the redemption date of July 17, 2021, as well as an early termination premium of approximately $8.4 million. In connection with the termination and repayment of the Term Loan Facility and the redemption of the 4.500% Senior Unsecured Notes, we expensed approximately $6.1 million of related debt issuance costs in July 2021.

(N) SEGMENT INFORMATION

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities that earn revenue, incur expenses, and prepare separate financial information that is evaluated regularly by our chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources and assess performance.

Our business is organized into two sectors within which there are four reportable business segments. The Heavy Materials sector includes the Cement and Concrete and Aggregates segments. The Light Materials sector includes the Gypsum Wallboard and Recycled Paperboard segments.

Our primary products are commodities that are essential in commercial and residential construction; public construction projects; and projects to build, expand, and repair roads and highways. Demand for our products is generally cyclical and seasonal, depending on economic and geographic conditions. We distribute our products throughout most of the United States, except the Northeast, which provides us with regional economic diversification. Our operations are conducted in the U.S. and include the mining of limestone for the manufacture, production, distribution, and sale of portland cement (a basic construction material that is the essential binding ingredient in concrete); the grinding and sale of slag; the mining of gypsum for the manufacture and sale of gypsum wallboard; the manufacture and sale of recycled paperboard to the gypsum wallboard industry and other paperboard converters; the sale of readymix concrete; and the mining and sale of aggregates (crushed stone, sand, and gravel).

We operate eight modern cement plants (one of which is operated through a joint venture located in Buda, Texas), one slag grinding facility, and 29 cement distribution terminals. Our cement companies focus on the U.S. heartland and operate as an integrated network selling product primarily in California, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, Ohio, Oklahoma, and Texas. We operate 30 readymix concrete batch plants and five aggregates processing plants in markets that are complementary to our cement network.

We operate five gypsum wallboard plants and a recycled paperboard mill. We distribute gypsum wallboard and recycled paperboard throughout the continental U.S., with the exception of the Northeast.

We account for intersegment sales at market prices. For segment reporting purposes only, we proportionately consolidate our 50% share of the Joint Venture Revenue and Operating Earnings, consistent with the way management reports the segments within the Company for making operating decisions and assessing performance.

The following table sets forth certain financial information relating to our operations by segment. We do not allocate interest or taxes at the segment level; these costs are disclosed at the consolidated company level.

Segment Operating Earnings, including the proportionately consolidated 50% interest in the revenue and expenses of the Joint Venture, represent Revenue, less direct operating expenses, segment Depreciation, and segment Selling, General, and Administrative expenses. We account for intersegment sales at market prices. Corporate assets consist mainly of cash and cash equivalents, general office assets, and miscellaneous other assets.

The basis used to disclose Identifiable Assets; Capital Expenditures; and Depreciation, Depletion, and Amortization conforms with the equity method, and is similar to how we disclose these accounts in our Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets and Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

The segment breakdown of Goodwill is as follows:

Paperboard		7,538		7,538
	$	367,880	$	329,137

The increase in Goodwill in the Concrete and Aggregates segment is related to the ConAgg Acquisition. The purchase price allocation is still in progress, and may affect the recorded balance of Goodwill when completed .

Summarized financial information for the Joint Venture that is not consolidated is set out below. This summarized financial information includes the total amount for the Joint Venture and not our 50% interest in those amounts:

	(dollars in thousands)
Interest Income	$	(15	)	$	(25	)
Interest Expense		6,882			6,126
Other Expenses		463			871
Interest Expense, net	$	7,330		$	6,972

Interest Income includes interest earned on investments of excess cash. Components of Interest Expense include interest associated with the Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loan, Senior Unsecured Notes, and commitment fees based on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility. Other Expenses include amortization of debt issuance costs and Revolving Credit Facility costs.

(P) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We have certain deductible limits under our workers’ compensation and liability insurance policies for which reserves are established based on the undiscounted estimated costs of known and anticipated claims. We have entered into standby letter of credit agreements relating to workers’ compensation, auto, and general liability self-insurance. At June 30, 2022, we had contingent liabilities under these outstanding letters of credit of approximately $6.4 million.

In the ordinary course of business, we execute contracts involving indemnifications that are both standard in the industry and specific to a transaction, such as the sale of a business. These indemnifications may include claims relating to any of the following: environmental and tax matters; intellectual property rights; governmental regulations and employment-related matters; customer, supplier, and other commercial contractual relationships; and construction contracts and financial matters. While the maximum amount to which the Company may be exposed under such agreements cannot be estimated, management believes these indemnifications will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. We currently have no outstanding guarantees.

We are currently contingently liable for performance under $26.8 million in performance bonds required by certain states and municipalities, and their related agencies. The bonds are principally for certain reclamation obligations and mining permits. We have indemnified the underwriting insurance company against any exposure under the performance bonds. In our past experience, no material claims have been made against these financial instruments.

(Q) FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair value of our long-term debt has been estimated based upon our current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements. The fair value of our 2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes at June 30, 2022 is as follows:


	Fair Value
	(dollars in thousands)
2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes Due 2031	$	591,030

The estimated fair value of our long-term debt was based on quoted prices of similar debt instruments with similar terms that are publicly traded (level 1 input). The carrying values of Cash and Cash Equivalents, Accounts Receivable, Notes Receivable, Accounts Payable, and Accrued Liabilities approximate their fair values at June 30, 2022, due to the short-term maturities of these assets and liabilities. The fair value of our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan also approximates the carrying value at June 30, 2022.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

We are a leading manufacturer of heavy construction materials and light building materials in the United States. Our primary products, Portland Cement and Gypsum Wallboard, are commodities that are essential in commercial and residential construction; public construction projects; and projects to build, expand, and repair roads and highways. Demand for our products is generally cyclical and seasonal, depending on economic and geographic conditions. We distribute our products throughout most of the United States, except the Northeast, which provides us with regional economic diversification. However, general economic downturns or localized downturns in the regions where we have operations may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Our business is organized into two sectors: Heavy Materials, which includes the Cement and Concrete and Aggregates segments; and Light Materials, which includes the Gypsum Wallboard and Recycled Paperboard segments. Financial results and other information for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, are presented on a consolidated basis and by these business segments – Cement, Concrete and Aggregates, Gypsum Wallboard, and Recycled Paperboard.

We conduct one of our cement operations through a joint venture, Texas Lehigh Cement Company LP, which is located in Buda, Texas (the Joint Venture). We own a 50% interest in the Joint Venture and account for our interest under the equity method of accounting. We proportionately consolidate our 50% share of the Joint Venture’s Revenue and Operating Earnings in the presentation of our Cement segment, which is the way management organizes the segments within the Company for making operating decisions and assessing performance.

All our business activities are conducted in the United States. These activities include the mining of limestone for the manufacture, production, distribution, and sale of portland cement (a basic construction material that is the essential binding ingredient in concrete); the grinding and sale of slag; the mining of gypsum for the manufacture and sale of gypsum wallboard; the manufacture and sale of recycled paperboard to the gypsum wallboard industry and other paperboard converters; the sale of readymix concrete; and the mining and sale of aggregates (crushed stone, sand, and gravel).

On April 22, 2022, we finalized the ConAgg Acquisition. The Purchase Price of the ConAgg Acquisition was approximately $121.2 million. The ConAgg Acquisition is included in our Heavy Material sector, in the Concrete and Aggregates business segment. See Footnote (B) in the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for more information regarding the ConAgg Acquisition.

MARKET CONDITIONS AND OUTLOOK

During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, our end markets generally remained resilient despite external challenges, such as transportation disruptions, supply chain constraints, and increasing interest rates and inflation. Construction activity in most of our regional markets continued to outpace the national average, and sales volume in our largest business lines remained strong – our Gypsum Wallboard shipments were up 5%, and although our Cement sales volume decreased 2%, sales volumes remain historically high.

Demand Outlook

The principal end-use market of Cement is public infrastructure (i.e. roads, bridges, and highways). Our Cement business remains in a near sold-out position. We expect demand for cement to remain strong with infrastructure investment increasing as federal funding from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act begins in earnest during this fiscal year. However, despite underlying demand growth, our ability to achieve further Cement sales volume growth from our existing facilities is limited, because our integrated cement sales network, which stretches across the U.S. heartland, is operating at high utilization levels.

The principal end use for Gypsum Wallboard is residential housing, consisting of new construction (both single-family and multi-family homes) as well as repair and remodel. The construction of single-family homes is more wallboard-intensive than multi-family homes. Gypsum wallboard shipments and orders currently remain strong, but we recognize quantitative tightening will likely have an impact on residential construction activity in the future. In the near term, we expect record home construction backlogs to support product demand this year. Our Recycled Paperboard business sells paper primarily into the gypsum wallboard market, and demand for our paper generally follows the demand for gypsum wallboard.

Cost Outlook

We are well positioned to manage our cost structure and meet our customers’ needs during the upcoming fiscal year, despite growing challenges related to rising inflation and increased transportation costs. Our substantial raw material reserves for our Cement, Aggregates, and Gypsum Wallboard businesses, and their proximity to our respective manufacturing facilities, support our low-cost producer position across all of our business segments.

Energy and freight costs increased in all of our businesses during fiscal 2022, and we anticipate further increases throughout fiscal 2023. The increases in energy costs are related to rising demand and disruption in the global supply of natural gas and solid fuels. Regarding natural gas, we have forward purchase contracts for approximately 40% of our natural gas needs at $4.78 per mmbtu across all of our businesses for fiscal 2023. For freight, several factors are contributing to higher costs, including: limited availability of trucking and rail service, congestion on the shipping routes, and the increase in price of diesel fuel, all of which have constrained freight capacity. We do not expect these factors to improve in the near term.

The primary raw material used to produce paperboard is OCC. Prices for OCC significantly increased during fiscal 2022 but started to decline during the winter and spring. We expect OCC prices to remain relatively level for the remainder of fiscal 2023. Our current customer contracts for gypsum liner include price adjustments that partially compensate for changes in raw material fiber prices. However, because these price escalations are not realized until future quarters, material costs in our Gypsum Wallboard segment are likely to be higher in the period that these price increases are realized.

REVENUE

Revenue increased by $85.6 million, or 18%, to $561.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The ConAgg Acquisition contributed $11.0 million of Revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2022. Excluding the ConAgg Acquisition, Revenue improved by $74.6 million, or 16%, largely because of increases in both gross sales prices and Sales Volume. The increases in gross sales prices and Sales Volume positively affected Revenue by approximately $70.7 million and $3.9 million, respectively.

COST OF GOODS SOLD

Cost of Goods Sold increased by $61.3 million, or 18%, to $410.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The ConAgg Acquisition contributed $11.1 million of Cost of Goods Sold during the three months ended June 30, 2022. Excluding the ConAgg Acquisition, Cost of Goods Sold increased by $50.2 million, or 14%. The increase was due to higher Sales Volume and operating costs of $2.1 million and $48.1 million, respectively. Higher operating costs were primarily related to our Cement, Gypsum Wallboard, and Recycled Paperboard segments, which are discussed further in the segment analysis.

GROSS PROFIT

Gross Profit increased 19% to $150.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022. The improvement was primarily related to higher gross sales prices and Sales Volume, partially offset by increased operating costs. The gross margin increased slightly to 27%, with higher gross sales prices being offset by an increase in operating costs.

EQUITY IN EARNINGS OF UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURE

Equity in Earnings of our Unconsolidated Joint Venture declined $2.9 million, or 36%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to increased operating costs, which adversely affected earnings by approximately $6.2 million. This was partially offset by higher gross sales prices and Sales Volume of $3.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively. The increase in operating costs was primarily related to extended equipment downtime that reduced cement production in June, and higher purchased cement costs, which reduced operating earnings by $3.1 million and $3.0 million, respectively.

CORPORATE GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE

Corporate General and Administrative expenses increased by approximately $2.4 million, or 25%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher incentive compensation associated with executive retirements of $2.3 million, respectively.

OTHER NON-OPERATING INCOME

Other Non-Operating Income consists of a variety of items that are unrelated to segment operations and include non-inventoried Aggregates income, asset sales, and other miscellaneous income and cost items.

INTEREST EXPENSE, NET

Interest Expense, net increased by approximately $0.4 million, or 5%, during the three months ended June 30, 2022. This was primarily due to approximately $0.7 million of higher interest on our public notes because we increased our outstanding balance to $750.0 million from $350.0 million. The increased interest expense was partially offset by lower loan amortization costs of $0.3 million due to the termination of the term loan facility repaid on July 1, 2021. See Footnote (M) to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.

EARNINGS BEFORE INCOME TAXES

Earnings Before Income Taxes increased to $136.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily as a result of higher Gross Profit. This was partially offset by higher Corporate General and Administrative Expenses and Interest Expense, as well as lower Equity in Earnings of Unconsolidated Joint Venture.

INCOME TAX EXPENSE

Income Tax Expense was $31.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared with $26.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The effective tax rate increased to 23% from 22% in the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to a reduced benefit received from the vesting and exercise of employee stock awards during the quarter in fiscal 2023.

NET EARNINGS

Net Earnings increased 10% to $105.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as discussed above.

Three MONTHS ENDED June 30, 2022 vs. three MONTHS ENDED June 30, 2021 BY SEGMENT

The following presents results within our two business sectors for the three months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021. Revenue and operating results are organized by sector and discussed by individual business segment within each respective business sector.

Cement Revenue was $284.5 million, a 5% increase, for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher gross sales prices, which improved Cement Revenue by approximately $21.4 million, partially offset by lower Sales Volume, which reduced Revenue by $7.2 million.

Cement Operating Earnings declined $0.2 million to $62.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was due to lower Sales Volume of $2.1 million and higher operating costs $20.4 million. This was partially offset by an increase in gross sales prices of $21.4 million. The increase in operating costs was primarily due to higher energy and maintenance costs of approximately $10.9 million and $8.9 million, respectively. The Operating Margin decreased to 22% from 23%, primarily because of higher operating costs, partially offset by increased gross sales prices.

Concrete and Aggregates Revenue increased 38% to $61.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The ConAgg Acquisition contributed $11.0 million of Revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2022. Excluding the ConAgg Acquisition, Revenue increased by $5.8 million, or 13%. The increase was due to higher gross sales price and Sales Volume, which improved Revenue by $3.4 million and $2.4 million, respectively.

Operating Earnings increased 7% to approximately $5.7 million. Excluding the ConAgg Acquisition, Operating Earnings increased to $5.8 million, which was due to increased gross sales prices and Sales Volume of $3.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively. This was partially offset by higher operating costs of $3.2 million. The increase in operating costs was primarily due to higher materials and delivery expenses of approximately $2.4 million and $1.1 million, respectively, partially offset by lower fixed costs in our aggregate operations of approximately $0.5 million.

(1) Net of freight per MSF.

Gypsum Wallboard Revenue increased 30% to $216.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The improvement was due to higher gross sales prices and Sales Volume, which increased Revenue by approximately $42.4 million and $7.6 million, respectively. Our market share remained relatively consistent during the three months ended June 30, 2022.

Operating Earnings increased 33% to $84.1 million, primarily because of higher gross sales prices and Sales Volume. The increase in gross sales prices and Sales Volume positively affected Operating Earnings by approximately $42.4 million and $2.9 million, respectively. This was partially offset by higher operating costs, which adversely affected Operating Earnings by approximately $24.5 million. The higher operating costs were primarily related to freight, energy, and raw materials, which reduced Operating Earnings by approximately $9.3 million, $5.8 million, and $9.2 million, respectively. The Operating Margin increased to 39% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily because of higher gross sales prices, partly offset by higher operating costs. Fixed costs are not a significant portion of the overall cost of wallboard; therefore, changes in utilization have a relatively minor impact on our operating cost per unit.

(1) Net of freight per ton.

Recycled Paperboard Revenue increased 25% to $54.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher gross sales prices and Sales Volume, which positively affected Revenue by $10.6 million and $0.2 million, respectively. Higher gross sales prices were related to the pricing provisions in our long-term sales agreements.

Operating Earnings increased 14% to $3.8 million, primarily because of higher gross sales prices, which increased Operating Earnings by $10.6 million. This was partially offset by higher operating costs, which reduced Operating Earnings by approximately $10.1 million. The increase in operating costs was primarily related to higher input costs, namely fiber, energy, and freight, which lowered Operating Earnings by approximately $5.5 million, $2.1 million, and $1.1 million, respectively. The Operating Margin declined to 7% because of increased operating costs, partially offset by higher gross sales prices. Although the Company has certain pricing provisions in its long-term sales agreements, prices are only adjusted at certain times throughout the year, so price adjustments are not always reflected in the same period as the change in costs.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to adopt accounting policies and make significant judgments and estimates to develop amounts disclosed in the financial statements. In many cases, there are alternative policies or estimation techniques that could be used. We maintain a thorough process to review the application of our accounting policies and to evaluate the appropriateness of the many estimates that are required to prepare our financial statements. However, even under optimal circumstances, estimates routinely require adjustment based on changing circumstances and the receipt of new or better information.

Information regarding our Critical Accounting Policies can be found in our Annual Report. The three Critical Accounting Policies that we believe either require the use of the most judgment, or the selection or application of alternative accounting policies, and are material to our financial statements, are those related to long-lived assets, goodwill, and business combinations. Management has discussed the development and selection of these Critical Accounting Policies and estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors and with our independent registered public accounting firm. In addition, Note (A) to the financial statements in our Annual Report contains a summary of our significant accounting policies.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to Footnote (A) in the Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of this Form 10-Q for information regarding recently issued accounting pronouncements that may affect our financial statements.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We believe at this time that we have access to sufficient financial resources from our liquidity sources to fund our business and operations, including contractual obligations, capital expenditures, and debt service obligations for at least the next twelve months. We regularly monitor any potential disruptions to the economy, and to our operations, particularly changing fiscal policy or economic conditions affecting our industries. Please see the Debt Financing Activities section below for a discussion of our revolving credit facility and the amount of borrowings available to us in the next twelve-month period.

Cash Flow

The following table provides a summary of our cash flows:


	For the Three Months Ended June 30,

Net Increase in Cash and Cash Equivalents	$	48,865		$	43,022

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities increased by $13.7 million to $124.8 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022. This increase was primarily attributable to higher Net Earnings, adjusted for non-cash charges, of approximately $18.3 million. This was partially offset by changes in working capital of $2.1 million and lower dividends from our Unconsolidated Joint Venture of $2.5 million.

Working capital increased by $83.3 million to $318.5 million at June 30, 2022, compared with March 31, 2022. The increase was due to higher Cash of approximately $48.9 million; higher Accounts and Notes Receivable, net of approximately $58.4 million, and lower Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities of $3.6 million. This was partially offset by lower Inventories and Income Tax Receivable of approximately $3.2 million and $4.6 million, respectively, and higher Income Tax Payable of $25.0 million. The reduction in inventory was due to our normal sales cycle in which we build inventory in the winter months to meet demand in the spring and summer. The ConAgg Acquisition in April 2022 increased working capital by approximately $12.6 million at June 30, 2022.

The increase in Accounts Receivable at June 30, 2022, was primarily related to higher Revenue during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared with the three months ended March 31, 2022. As a percentage of quarterly sales generated for the respective quarter, Accounts Receivable was approximately 42% at June 30, 2022 and 43% at March 31, 2022. Accounts Receivable related to the ConAgg Acquisition at June 30, 2022 were approximately $8.2 million. Management measures the change in Accounts Receivable by monitoring the days sales outstanding on a monthly basis to determine if any deterioration has occurred in the collectability of the Accounts Receivable. No significant deterioration in the collectability of our Accounts Receivable was identified at June 30, 2022. Notes Receivable are monitored on an individual basis, and no significant deterioration in the collectability of our Notes Receivable was identified at June 30, 2022.

Our Inventory balance at June 30, 2022 declined by approximately $3.1 million from our balance at March 31, 2022. Excluding the ConAgg Acquisition, our Inventory balance declined by $8.0 million. Within Inventory, raw materials and materials-in-progress decreased by approximately $3.6 million and finished cement decreased by approximately $4.1 million. The decline in raw materials and materials-in-progress and finished cement is consistent with our business cycle; we generally build up clinker inventory over the winter months to meet the demand for cement in the spring and summer. The increase in repair parts inventory was primarily due to the build-up of inventory necessary for our scheduled outages over the next several months. The largest individual balance in our Inventory is our repair parts. These parts are necessary given the size and complexity of our manufacturing plants, as well as the age of certain of our plants, which creates the need to stock a high level of repair parts inventory. We believe all of these repair parts are necessary, and we perform semi-annual analyses to identify obsolete parts. We have less than one year’s sales of all product inventories, and our inventories have a low risk of obsolescence because our products are basic construction materials.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities during the three months ended June 30, 2022, was approximately $136.1 million, compared with $11.9 million during the same period in 2021, an increase of approximately $124.2 million. The increase was primarily related to the $121.2 million Purchase Price for the ConAgg Acquisition in April 2022.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities was approximately $60.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared with Net Cash Used in Financing Activities of $56.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2021. The $116.3 million increase was primarily related to higher borrowings of $181.0 million, partially offset by increases in Dividends Paid to Shareholders of $9.6 million and Purchase and Retirement of Common Stock of $47.7 million.

Our debt-to-capitalization ratio and net-debt-to-capitalization ratio were 50.0% and 48.6%, respectively, at June 30, 2022, compared with 45.6% and 45.1%, respectively, at March 31, 2022.

Debt Financing Activities

Below is a summary of the Company’s outstanding debt facilities at June 30, 2022:


	Maturity
Revolving Credit Facility		May 2027
Term Loan		May 2027
2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes		July 2031

See Footnote (M) to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for further details on the Company’s debt facilities, including interest rate, and financial and other covenants and restrictions.

The borrowing capacity of our Revolving Credit Facility is $750.0 million until May 5, 2027. The Revolving Credit Facility also includes a swingline loan sublimit of $25.0 million, and a $40.0 million letter of credit facility. At June 30, 2022 we had $181.0 million outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility and $6.4 million of outstanding letters of credit, leaving us with $562.6 million of available borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, net of the outstanding letters of credit. We are contingently liable for performance under $26.8 million in performance bonds relating primarily to our mining operations. We do not have any off-balance sheet debt, or any outstanding debt guarantees.

Other than the Revolving Credit Facility, we have no additional source of committed external financing in place. Should the Revolving Credit Facility be terminated, no assurance can be given as to our ability to secure a new source of financing. Consequently, if any balance were outstanding on the Revolving Credit Facility at the time of termination, and an alternative source of financing could not be secured, it would have a material adverse impact on our business.

We believe that our cash flow from operations and available borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, as well as cash on hand, should be sufficient to meet our currently anticipated operating needs, capital expenditures, and dividend and debt service requirements for at least the next 12 months. However, our future liquidity and capital requirements may vary depending on a number of factors, including market conditions in the construction industry, our ability to maintain compliance with covenants in our Revolving Credit Facility, the level of competition, and general and economic factors beyond our control, such as COVID-19 or similar pandemics. These and other developments could reduce our cash flow or require that we seek additional sources of funding. We cannot predict what effect these factors will have on our future liquidity.

As market conditions warrant, the Company may from time to time seek to purchase or repay its outstanding debt securities or loans, including the 2.500% Senior Unsecured Notes, Term Loan, and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise. Subject to any applicable limitations contained in the agreements governing our indebtedness, any purchases made by us may be funded by the use of cash on our balance sheet or the incurrence of new debt. The amounts involved in any such purchase transactions, individually or in aggregate, may be material.

We have approximately $34.9 million of lease liabilities at June 30, 2022, that have an average remaining life of approximately 10.2 years.

Dividends

Dividends paid were $9.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. There were no dividends paid during the three months ended June 30, 2021. On May 19, 2021, we announced the reinstatement of our quarterly dividend that was suspended in fiscal 2021. Each quarterly dividend payment is subject to review and approval by our Board of Directors, who will continue to evaluate our dividend payment amount on a quarterly basis.

Share Repurchases

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, our share repurchases were as follows:


Period	Total Number of Shares Purchased		Average Price Paid Per Share		Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs		Maximum Number of Shares that May Yet be Purchased Under the Plans or Programs

On May 17, 2022, the Board of Directors authorized us to repurchase an additional 7.5 million shares. This authorization brought the cumulative total of Common Stock our Board has approved for repurchase in the open market to 55.9 million shares since we became publicly held in April 1994. Through June 30, 2022, we have repurchased approximately 46.0 million shares.

Share repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing and amount of any share repurchases are determined by management, based on its evaluation of market and economic conditions and other factors. In some cases, repurchases may be made pursuant to plans, programs, or directions established from time to time by the Company’s management, including plans intended to comply with the safe-harbor provided by Rule 10b5-1.

During the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company withheld from employees 10,745 shares of stock upon the vesting of Restricted Shares that were granted under the Plan. We withheld these shares to satisfy the employees’ statutory tax withholding requirements, which is required once the Restricted Shares or Restricted Share Units are vested.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain matters discussed in this report contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the context of the statement and generally arise when the Company is discussing its beliefs, estimates or expectations. These statements are not historical facts or guarantees of future performance but instead represent only the Company’s belief at the time the statements were made regarding future events which are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are outside the Company’s control. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially from what is expressed or forecast in such forward-looking statements. The principal risks and uncertainties that may affect the Company’s actual performance include the following: the cyclical and seasonal nature of the Company’s businesses; public infrastructure expenditures; adverse weather conditions; the fact that our products are commodities and that prices for our products are subject to material fluctuation due to market conditions and other factors beyond our control; availability of raw materials; changes in the costs of energy, including, without limitation, natural gas, coal and oil, and the nature of our obligations to counterparties under energy supply contracts, such as those related to market conditions (such as fluctuations in spot market prices), governmental orders and other matters; changes in the cost and availability of transportation; unexpected operational difficulties, including unexpected maintenance costs, equipment downtime and interruption of production; material nonpayment or non-performance by any of our key customers; fluctuations in or changes in the nature of activity in the oil and gas industry; inability to timely execute announced capacity expansions; difficulties and delays in the development of new business lines; governmental regulation and changes in governmental and public policy (including, without limitation, climate change and other environmental regulation); possible outcomes of pending or future litigation or arbitration proceedings; changes in economic conditions specific to any one or more of the Company’s markets; adverse impact of severe weather conditions (such as winter storms, tornados and hurricanes) and their effects on our facilities, operations and contractual arrangements with third parties; competition; cyber-attacks or data security breaches; announced increases in capacity in the gypsum wallboard and cement industries; changes in the demand for residential housing construction or commercial construction or construction projects undertaken by state or local governments; risks related to pursuit of acquisitions, joint ventures and other transactions or the execution or implementation of such transactions, including the integration of operations acquired by the Company; general economic conditions; and interest rates. For example, increases in interest rates, decreases in demand for construction materials or increases in the cost of energy (including, without limitation, natural gas, coal and oil) and the cost of our raw materials could affect the revenue and operating earnings of our operations. In addition, changes in national or regional economic conditions and levels of infrastructure and construction spending could also adversely affect the Company’s result of operations. Finally, any forward-looking statements made by the Company are subject to the risks and impacts associated with natural disasters, pandemics or other unforeseen events, including, without limitation, the COVID-19 pandemic and responses thereto designed to contain its spread and mitigate its public health effects, as well as their impact on economic conditions, capital and financial markets. These and other factors are described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022. All forward-looking statements made herein are made as of the date hereof, and the risk that actual results will differ materially from expectations expressed herein will increase with the passage of time. The Company undertakes no duty to update any forward-looking statement to reflect future events or changes in the Company’s expectations.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates on our Revolving Credit Facility. We have occasionally utilized derivative instruments, including interest rate swaps, in conjunction with our overall strategy to manage the debt outstanding that is subject to changes in interest rates. We had a $750.0 million Revolving Credit Facility at June 30, 2022, under which borrowings bear interest at a variable rate. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in interest rates on the $181.0 million of borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and the $200.0 million of borrowings under the Term Loan at June 30, 2022, would increase interest expense by approximately $3.8 million on an annual basis. At present, we do not utilize derivative financial instruments.

We are subject to commodity risk with respect to price changes principally in coal, coke, natural gas, and power. We attempt to limit our exposure to changes in commodity prices by entering into contracts or increasing our use of alternative fuels.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

We have established a system of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information relating to the Company, which is required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act), is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), in a timely fashion. An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) was performed as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. This evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our CEO and CFO. Based upon that evaluation, our CEO and CFO have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we have been and may in the future become involved in litigation or other legal proceedings in the ordinary course of our business activities or in connection with transactions or activities undertaken by us, including claims related to worker safety, worker health, environmental matters, commercial contracts, land use rights, taxes, and permits. While the outcome of these proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, in the opinion of management (based on currently available facts), we do not believe that the ultimate outcome of any currently pending legal proceeding will have a material effect on our consolidated financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.

For additional information regarding claims and other contingent liabilities to which we may be subject, see Footnote (P) in the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
