Ronnie Pruitt, Vulcan Materials' Chief Executive Officer, said, "Our aggregates-led business delivered another year of strong earnings growth and margin expansion. Adjusted EBITDA for the full year improved 13 percent over the prior year, and margin expanded 160 basis points. Through a consistent focus on commercial and operational execution, we continue to deliver attractive organic growth and expand our industry-leading aggregates cash gross profit per ton, which increased to $11.33 per ton. The resulting strong cash generation, coupled with disciplined M&A and portfolio management, positions us well to continue compounding results and creating value for our shareholders in 2026 and beyond."

#### Segment Results

#### Aggregates

As compared to the prior year, fourth quarter aggregates shipments increased 2 percent and continued to benefit from healthy public construction activity. Shipments in the prior year's fourth quarter were aided by strong demand in Western North Carolina and East Tennessee in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene. Full year aggregates shipments increased 3 percent, with volume from operations acquired in late 2024 more than offsetting slightly lower year-over-year same-store shipments.

Freight-adjusted selling prices increased 5 percent on a mix-adjusted basis (2 percent on a reported basis) as compared to the prior year's fourth quarter. As anticipated, reported price in the quarter was impacted by unfavorable geographic and product mix, along with the impact of prior year acquisitions. For the full year, mix-adjusted pricing improved 6 percent (4 percent on a reported basis). Pricing growth was widespread across the Company's footprint.

For the full year, freight-adjusted unit cash cost of sales increased 2 percent, even with several fourth quarter timing impacts, reflecting a continued focus on cost management and operating efficiencies.

Cash gross profit per ton for the full year was $11.33, an increase of 7 percent over the prior year and marked the twelfth consecutive quarter of at least high single-digit improvement on a trailing-twelve months basis. Segment gross profit improved 8 percent, and gross margin expanded 70 basis points to 31.2 percent.

#### Asphalt and Concrete

Non-aggregates segment gross profit in the fourth quarter was $51 million, and cash gross profit was $73 million. For the full year, gross profit improved 15 percent to $210 million, and cash gross profit improved 18 percent to $322 million.

Asphalt gross profit margin remained strong at 13 percent, and unit cash gross profit improved 6 percent for the full year. Gross profit margin in the concrete segment expanded 220 basis points to 4 percent, and unit cash gross profit increased 34 percent for the full year, benefiting from the profitability of acquired operations.

#### Selling, Administrative and General (SAG) and Other Items

SAG expense in the quarter was $136 million, 1 percent lower than the prior year and 40 basis points lower as a percentage of revenue. Full year SAG expense was $564 million and, at 7.1 percent of revenues, was 10 basis points lower than the prior year.

Full year other operating income was $9 million compared to $104 million of expense in the prior year. The prior year included a pretax charge of $87 million resulting from the write-off of goodwill for the Company's concrete assets in Northern California and $18 million of charges associated with previously divested operations.

Page 3<br> February 17, 2026<br> **FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE**<br>

#### Financial Position, Liquidity and Capital Allocation

In 2025, cash provided by operating activities was $1.8 billion, a 29 percent increase over the prior year. Capital expenditures for maintenance and growth projects were $261 million in the fourth quarter and $703 million for the full year. During the year, the Company returned $698 million to shareholders through $438 million of common stock repurchases and $260 million of dividends. On a trailing-twelve months basis, return on average invested capital was 15.7 percent.

In the fourth quarter, the Company completed the disposition of its asphalt and construction services assets in the greater Houston market and entered into an agreement for the disposition of its ready-mixed concrete businesses in California. Subject to obtaining regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions, the California ready-mixed concrete transaction is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026. The sale of these downstream assets is consistent with our aggregates-led strategy and generates cash proceeds that can be redeployed into attractive growth opportunities in the future.

At December 31, 2025, the ratio of total debt to Adjusted EBITDA was 1.9 times, or 1.8 times on a net debt basis. The Company's weighted average debt maturity was 14 years, and the effective weighted average interest rate was 5 percent. The Company's strong balance sheet and ample liquidity position the Company well for continued growth.

#### Outlook

Regarding the Company's outlook, Mr. Pruitt said, "As we look to 2026, I'm encouraged about the demand backdrop in our markets. We expect continued strength in public construction activity and improving private nonresidential opportunities, a combination that should benefit an already healthy pricing environment. Growing demand, coupled with our Vulcan Way of Selling and Vulcan Way of Operating disciplines, will drive another year of earnings growth and further improvement in our aggregates unit profitability. We expect to deliver between $2.4 and $2.6 billion of Adjusted EBITDA."

Management expectations supporting the 2026 outlook include:

• Continued improvement in Aggregates segment cash gross profit per ton ($11.33 in 2025)

For the same reasons, we are unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.

<sup>3</sup> 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.

<sup>4</sup> Freight-adjusted sales price is calculated as freight-adjusted revenues divided by aggregates unit shipments.

<sup>5</sup> 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.

#### 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:

<sup>1</sup> 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:

Appendix 2

#### 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):

Similar to our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, we present Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share (EPS) attributable to Vulcan from continuing operations to provide a more consistent comparison of earnings performance from period to period. This metric is not defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to earnings measures defined by GAAP. Reconciliation of this metric to its nearest GAAP measure is presented below:

Projected EBITDA is not defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to earnings measures defined by GAAP. Reconciliation of this metric to its nearest GAAP measure is presented below:

#### 2026 Projected EBITDA

| Interest expense, net | **225** |
| Depreciation, depletion, accretion and amortization | **700** |
| Projected EBITDA | $**2500** |

---

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 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.

#### Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures (Continued)
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. Reconciliation of this metric to its nearest GAAP measure is presented below:

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. Reconciliation of this metric to its nearest GAAP measure is presented below (numbers may not foot due to rounding):
