Insights
The reported financial results from Eagle Materials Inc. indicate a robust fiscal performance in the third quarter of 2024, with record revenue and net earnings growth of 9% and 10% respectively. The earnings per share (EPS) increase of 16% is particularly noteworthy, outpacing net earnings growth, which could be attributed to the company's aggressive share repurchase program. Such a program can signal confidence from management in the company's future prospects and potentially increase shareholder value.
From a financial perspective, the expansion of gross margins by 130 basis points to 32.3% reflects effective cost management and pricing power in the market. The company's adjusted EBITDA growth of 10% is a critical measure, as it provides insight into the company's operational efficiency by excluding non-routine and non-cash items. This metric is often used by investors to compare profitability across companies without the effects of financing and accounting decisions.
The capital allocation strategy, including the return of $276 million to shareholders in the first nine months, is significant. It demonstrates a balanced approach to capital distribution and reinvestment, which is a key consideration for investors. The company's focus on environmental stewardship and the agreement with Terra CO2 could potentially open up new markets and revenue streams, aligning with global sustainability trends and possibly providing a competitive advantage.
The construction materials industry, where Eagle Materials operates, is closely tied to macroeconomic factors such as interest rates, housing production and infrastructure spending. The CEO's reference to shifting market conditions and lower interest rates in the latter half of the quarter could have significant implications for the industry. Lower interest rates generally stimulate construction activity by reducing the cost of borrowing for projects, which in turn can drive demand for building materials.
Eagle Materials' geographic footprint in the heartland of the United States positions it to benefit from population growth and housing deficits, which are strong indicators for continued demand in the construction sector. The mention of a multi-year federal highway bill and state-level infrastructure spending suggests a favorable outlook for the Heavy Materials sector, potentially leading to increased sales volumes and operational earnings as seen in the reported results.
However, the Light Materials sector's performance presents a contrast, with a decrease in revenue and operating earnings. This could be indicative of market saturation or increased competition affecting sales prices and volumes, which may warrant a closer look at the sector's strategy and market dynamics. The reported increased input costs also suggest potential margin pressures that could impact future profitability if not managed effectively.
Eagle Materials' focus on environmental stewardship through the expansion of eco-friendly products like Portland Limestone Cement and other blended cement products represents a strategic move in an industry often criticized for its environmental impact. The exclusive rights agreement with Terra CO2 to produce low-carbon supplementary cementitious material is a forward-thinking initiative that could significantly reduce the carbon intensity of their products.
This approach not only addresses the environmental concerns but also anticipates the expected increase in demand for sustainable building materials. As regulations become stricter and consumer preferences shift towards eco-friendly products, Eagle Materials could gain a significant first-mover advantage. The development of such technology can be capital intensive, but it may lead to long-term cost savings and brand differentiation. Stakeholders should monitor the progress of these initiatives for their potential to drive long-term value creation and risk mitigation in the face of environmental regulations.

Commenting on the results, Michael Haack, President and CEO of Eagle, said, “We are pleased to announce another exceptional quarter against the backdrop of shifting, albeit constructive, market conditions as interest rates moved materially lower during the latter half of the quarter. In the third quarter, we achieved record revenue of
“We continued making progress on our environmental stewardship goals, expanding the production and sale of our eco-friendly Portland Limestone Cement and other blended cement products. In December, we announced an agreement with Terra CO2 granting us exclusive rights to use Terra’s technology to build and operate plants that would produce low-carbon supplementary cementitious material in three of our core cement markets. Once fully developed, this technology has the potential to not only reduce the carbon intensity of the cementitious products we sell, but also to fulfill the needs of our customers and meet the expected increase in demand for cement and supplementary cementitious materials.”
Mr. Haack concluded, “Eagle’s heartland geographic footprint remains well-positioned for long-term growth, supported by trends in population growth, well-documented housing production deficits and supply shortages, and a multi-year federal highway bill further enhanced by state-level infrastructure spending. We expect that our portfolio of businesses will continue to deliver leading financial results, and our capital allocation strategies will continue to generate superior shareholder value for the foreseeable future.”

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures |
(dollars in thousands) |
(unaudited) |
|
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA |
We present Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) and Adjusted EBITDA to provide additional measures of operating performance and allow for more consistent comparison of operating performance from period to period. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that provides supplemental information regarding the operating performance of our business without regard to financing methods, capital structures or historical cost basis. Adjusted EBITDA is also a non-GAAP financial measure that further excludes the impact from non-routine items and stock-based compensation. Management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as alternative bases for comparing the operating performance of Eagle from period to period and for purposes of its budgeting and planning processes. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies because other companies may not calculate Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner. Neither EBITDA nor Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in isolation or as an alternative to net income, cash flow from operations or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity in accordance with GAAP. The following shows the calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and reconciles them to net earnings in accordance with GAAP for the quarters and nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the trailing twelve months ended December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023: |

Reconciliation of Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA |
(unaudited) |
(dollars in thousands) |
|
GAAP does not define “Net Debt” and it should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow or liquidity measures defined by GAAP. We define Net Debt as total debt minus cash and cash equivalents to indicate the amount of total debt that would remain if the Company applied the cash and cash equivalents held by it to the payment of outstanding debt. The Company also uses “Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA,” which it defines as Net Debt divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve months, as a metric of its current leverage position. We present this metric for the convenience of the investment community and rating agencies who use such metrics in their analysis, and for investors who need to understand the metrics we use to assess performance and monitor our cash and liquidity positions. |
