Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
The condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by United States Lime & Minerals, Inc. (the “Company”) without independent audit. In the opinion of the Company’s management, all adjustments of a normal and recurring nature necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented have been made. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2024. The results of operations for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year.
2. Organization
The Company is a manufacturer of lime and limestone products, supplying primarily the construction (including highway, road, and building contractors), industrial (including paper and glass manufacturers), environmental (including municipal sanitation and water treatment facilities and flue gas treatment processes), metals (including steel producers), roof shingle manufacturers, agriculture (including poultry producers), and oil and gas services industries. The Company is headquartered in Dallas, Texas and operates lime and limestone plants and distribution facilities in Arkansas, Colorado, Louisiana, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Arkansas Lime Company, ART Quarry TRS LLC (DBA Carthage Crushed Limestone), Colorado Lime Company, Mill Creek Dolomite, LLC, Texas Lime Company, U.S. Lime Company, U.S. Lime Company-Shreveport, U.S. Lime Company-St. Clair, and U.S. Lime Company-Transportation. In addition, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary, U.S. Lime Company-O & G, LLC, has royalty and non-operated working interests in natural gas wells located in Johnson County, Texas, in the Barnett Shale Formation.

4. Reportable Segment
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board amended guidance in ASC 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), by issuing Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, which updated the disclosure requirements for reportable segments, primarily through requiring enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The Company adopted this guidance in the fourth quarter 2024, with retrospective application to prior reportable periods.
The Company is managed as
The Company’s CODM is the chief executive officer. The Company’s lime and limestone operations derives revenues from the sale of crushed limestone, pulverized limestone, aggregate, quicklime, hydrated lime, and lime slurry.
In evaluating the operating results of the Company, the CODM assesses performance for the lime and limestone operations segment and decides how to allocate resources (including, but not limited to, decisions on fuel blends, capital investments, and staffing levels) based on net income that is also reported on the consolidated statements of income. The measure of segment assets is reported on the consolidated balance sheets as “Total assets,” and the measure of segment capital expenditures is reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows as “Purchase of property, plant, and equipment.”
The following table presents revenue, significant expenses, and profit for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, as reviewed and used by the CODM. There are no other significant segment items or reconciling items to consolidated net income.

We are headquartered in Dallas, Texas and operate lime and limestone plants and distribution facilities in Arkansas, Colorado, Louisiana, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas through our wholly owned subsidiaries, Arkansas Lime Company, ART Quarry TRS LLC (DBA Carthage Crushed Limestone), Colorado Lime Company, Mill Creek Dolomite, LLC, Texas Lime Company, U.S. Lime Company, U.S. Lime Company-Shreveport, U.S. Lime Company-St. Clair, and U.S. Lime Company-Transportation.
Our revenues increased 19.6% and 23.3% in the second quarter and first six months 2025, respectively, compared to the second quarter and first six months 2024. Revenues increased in the second quarter 2025, compared to the second quarter 2024, primarily due to a 12.1% increase in sales volumes of our lime and limestone products, which was principally due to increased demand from our construction, environmental, and steel customers, and a 7.6% increase in the average selling prices for our lime and limestone products. Revenues increased in the first six months 2025, compared to the first six months 2024, primarily due to a 15.7% increase in sales volumes of our lime and limestone products, which was principally due to increased demand from our construction, environmental, and steel customers, and a 7.6% increase in the average selling prices for our lime and limestone products.
Our gross profit increased 20.3% and 34.5% in the second quarter and first six months 2025, respectively, compared to the second quarter and first six months 2024. The increases in gross profit resulted primarily from the increases in revenues discussed above.
In 2024, we began construction on a new vertical kiln and related equipment and infrastructure at our Texas Lime Company plant. We estimate that the construction costs of the Texas kiln project will total approximately $65 million and be completed in 2026.
Liquidity and Capital Resources.
Net cash provided by operating activities was $73.5 million in the first six months 2025, compared to $48.4 million in the first six months 2024, an increase of $25.1 million, or 51.9%. Our net cash provided by operating activities is composed of net income, depreciation, depletion, and amortization (“DD&A”), deferred income taxes, stock-based compensation, other non-cash items included in net income and changes in working capital. In the first six months 2025, net cash provided by operating activities was principally composed of $64.9 million net income, $12.3 million DD&A, and $4.3 million stock-based compensation, partially offset by $2.3 million deferred income taxes and a $6.1 million decrease from changes in operating assets and liabilities. Changes in operating assets and liabilities in the first six months 2025 included an increase of $10.4 million in trade receivables, net, due primarily to increased sales in the second quarter 2025 compared to the fourth quarter 2024, partially offset by decreases of $2.1 million in inventories and $1.5 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets and an increase of $0.5 million in accounts payable and accrued expenses. In the first six months 2024, net cash provided by operating activities was principally composed of $48.5 million net income, $12.0 million DD&A, and $2.4 million stock-based compensation, partially offset by $0.4 million deferred income taxes and a $14.1 million decrease from changes in operating assets and liabilities. Changes in operating assets and liabilities in the first six months 2024 included an increase of $8.2 million in trade receivables, net, due primarily to increased sales in the second quarter 2024 compared to the fourth quarter 2023, increases of $3.0 million in inventories and $1.6 million in other assets, and a decrease of $2.4 million in accounts payable and accrued expenses, partially offset by a decrease of $1.2 million in prepaid expenses and other current assets.
We had $28.1 million in capital expenditures in the first six months 2025, compared to $11.2 million in the first six months 2024. Capital expenditures in the first six months 2025 included $14.1 million related to the Texas kiln project. Net cash used in financing activities was $3.7 million in the first six months 2025, compared to $2.9 million in the first six months 2024, consisting primarily of cash dividends paid in each period.
Cash and cash equivalents increased $41.9 million to $319.9 million at June 30, 2025 from $278.0 million at December 31, 2024.
12
We are not committed to any planned capital expenditures until actual orders are placed for equipment. As of June 30, 2025, we were committed to $29.2 million of open purchase orders related to the Texas kiln project. We did not have any other material commitments for open purchase orders. As of June 30, 2025, we had incurred a total of $17.4 million on the Texas kiln project, of which $15.4 million had been paid in cash.
Our credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (the “Lender”), as amended as of August 3, 2023, provides for a $75 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) and an incremental four-year accordion feature to borrow up to an additional $50 million on the same terms, subject to approval by the Lender or another lender selected by us. The credit agreement also provides for a $10 million letter of credit sublimit under the Revolving Facility. The Revolving Facility and any incremental loans mature on August 3, 2028.
Interest rates on the Revolving Facility are, at our option, SOFR, plus a SOFR adjustment rate of 0.10%, plus a margin of 1.000% to 2.000%, or the Lender’s Prime Rate, plus a margin of 0.000% to 1.000%, and a commitment fee range of 0.225% to 0.350% on the undrawn portion of the Revolving Facility. The Revolving Facility interest rate margins and commitment fee are determined quarterly in accordance with a pricing grid based upon our Cash Flow Leverage Ratio, defined as the ratio of our total funded senior indebtedness to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, and stock-based compensation expense (“EBITDA”) for the 12 months ended on the last day of the most recent calendar quarter, plus pro forma EBITDA from any businesses acquired during the period. Pursuant to a security agreement, dated August 25, 2004, the Revolving Facility is secured by our existing and hereafter acquired tangible assets, intangible assets, and real property. The maturity of the Revolving Facility and any incremental loans can be accelerated if any event of default, as defined under the credit agreement, occurs. Our maximum Cash Flow Leverage Ratio is 3.50 to 1.
We may pay dividends so long as we remain in compliance with the provisions of our credit agreement, and we may purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire shares of our common stock so long as our pro forma Cash Flow Leverage Ratio is less than 3.00 to 1.00 and no default or event of default exists or would exist after giving effect to such stock repurchase.
At June 30, 2025, we had no debt outstanding and no draws on the Revolving Facility other than $7.4 million of letters of credit, principally related to the Texas kiln project, which count as draws against the available commitment under the Revolving Facility. We believe that, absent a significant acquisition, cash on hand and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet our operating needs, ongoing capital needs, including current and possible future modernization, expansion, and development projects, and liquidity needs and allow us to pay regular quarterly cash dividends for the near future.
Results of Operations.
Revenues in the second quarter 2025 were $91.5 million, compared to $76.5 million in the second quarter 2024, an increase of $15.0 million, or 19.6%. For the first six months 2025, revenues were $182.8 million, compared to $148.2 million in the first six months 2024, an increase of $34.5 million, or 23.3%. The increases in our revenues in the second quarter and first six months 2025, compared to the comparable 2024 periods, resulted from increased sales volumes of our lime and limestone products, principally due to increased demand from our construction, environmental and steel customers, and an increase in the average selling prices for our lime and limestone products.
Gross profit was $41.9 million in the second quarter 2025, compared to $34.8 million in the second quarter 2024, an increase of $7.1 million, or 20.3%. Gross profit was $88.0 million in the first six months 2025, compared to $65.4 million in the first six months 2024, an increase of $22.6 million, or 34.5%. The increases in gross profit in the second quarter and first six months 2025, compared to the comparable 2024 periods, resulted primarily from the increased revenues discussed above.
Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $6.2 million in the second quarter 2025, compared to $4.9 million in the second quarter 2024, an increase of $1.3 million, or 26.8%. SG&A expenses were $12.5 million in the first six months 2025, compared to $9.7 million in the first six months 2024, an increase of $2.7 million, or 28.0%. The increases in SG&A expenses in the 2025 periods, compared to the comparable 2024 periods, were primarily due to increased personnel expenses, including stock-based compensation.
Other (income) expense, net was $3.1 million income in the second quarter 2025 and $6.2 million income in the first six months 2025, compared to $2.8 million income in the second quarter 2024 and $5.3 million income in the first
13
six months 2024. The increases of $0.3 million and $0.9 million in other (income) expense, net, during the 2025 periods, compared to the comparable 2024 periods, were primarily due to interest earned on higher average balances of our cash and cash equivalents.
Income tax expense was $8.0 million and $16.8 million in the second quarter and first six months 2025, respectively, compared to $6.7 million and $12.5 million in the second quarter and first six months 2024, respectively. The increases in income tax expense in the 2025 periods, compared to the comparable 2024 periods, were due to the increases in income before taxes.
On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed the Act. We anticipate the Act will result in the reclassification of a portion of our current taxes payable, currently presented in accrued expenses, to deferred tax liabilities, net, on our consolidated balance sheet, but we do not anticipate a significant impact on our effective income tax rate in future periods. We are currently evaluating the full impact of the Act on our financial statements, and no impact was included in our condensed consolidated financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2025.
Our net income was $30.8 million ($1.07 per share diluted) in the second quarter 2025, compared to net income of $26.1 million ($0.91 per share diluted) in the second quarter 2024, an increase of $4.8 million, or 18.3%. For the first six months 2025, our net income was $64.9 million ($2.26 per share diluted), compared to $48.5 million ($1.69 per share diluted) for the first six months 2024, an increase of $16.4 million, or 33.9%.
ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based upon that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report were effective.
No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II.
ITEM 2: UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
Our Amended and Restated 2001 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as Amended and Restated, allows employees and directors to pay the exercise price for stock options and the tax withholding liability upon the lapse of restrictions on restricted stock by payment in cash and/or delivery of shares of common stock. There were no repurchases in the second quarter 2025 pursuant to these provisions or otherwise.
ITEM 4: MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
Under Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 104 of SEC Regulation S-K, each operator of a coal or other mine is required to include disclosures regarding certain mine safety results in its periodic reports filed with the SEC. The operation of our quarries, underground mines and plants is subject to regulation by the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”) under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977. The required information regarding certain mining safety and health matters, broken down by mining complex, for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, is presented in Exhibit 95.1 to this Report.
We believe we are responsible to employees to provide a safe and healthy workplace environment. We seek to accomplish this by: training employees in safe work practices; openly communicating with employees; following safety standards and establishing and improving safe work practices; involving employees in safety processes; and recording, reporting and investigating accidents, incidents and losses to avoid reoccurrence.
Following passage of the Mine Improvement and New Emergency Response Act of 2006, MSHA significantly increased the enforcement of mining safety and health standards on all aspects of mining operations. There has also been an increase in the dollar penalties assessed for citations and orders issued in recent years.

MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
The following disclosures are provided pursuant to Section 1503(a) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and Item 104 of SEC Regulation S-K, which require certain disclosures by companies required to file periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that operate mines regulated under the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the “Mine Act”).
The Mine Act has been construed as authorizing MSHA to issue citations and orders pursuant to the legal doctrine of strict liability, or liability without fault. If, in the opinion of an MSHA inspector, a condition that violates the Mine Act or regulations promulgated pursuant to it exists, then a citation or order will be issued regardless of whether the operator had any knowledge of, or fault in, the existence of that condition. Many of the Mine Act standards include one or more subjective elements, so that issuance of a citation or order often depends on the opinions or experience of the MSHA inspector involved and the frequency and severity of citations and orders will vary from inspector to inspector.
Whenever MSHA believes that a violation of the Mine Act, any health or safety standard, or any regulation has occurred, it may issue a citation or order which describes the violation and fixes a time within which the operator must abate the violation. In some situations, such as when MSHA believes that conditions pose a hazard to miners, MSHA may issue an order requiring cessation of operations, or removal of miners from the area of the mine, affected by the condition until the hazards are corrected. Whenever MSHA issues a citation or order, it has authority to propose a civil penalty or fine, as a result of the violation, that the operator is ordered to pay.
The table that follows reflects citations, orders, violations and proposed assessments issued to the Company by MSHA during the quarter ended June 30, 2025, and all pending legal actions as of June 30, 2025. Due to timing and other factors, the data may not agree with the mine data retrieval system maintained by MSHA. The proposed assessments for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 were taken from the MSHA system as of July 29, 2025.
Additional information follows about MSHA references used in the table:
| ● | Section 104(a) Citations: The total number of citations received from MSHA under section 104(a) of the Mine Act for alleged violations of health or safety standards that could significantly and substantially contribute to a serious injury if left unabated. |
| ● | Section 104(b) Orders: The total number of orders issued by MSHA under section 104(b) of the Mine Act, which represents a failure to abate a citation under section 104(a) within the period of time prescribed by MSHA. This results in an order of immediate withdrawal from the area of the mine affected by the condition until MSHA determines that the violation has been abated. |
| ● | Section 104(d) Citations and Orders: The total number of citations and orders issued by MSHA under section 104(d) of the Mine Act for unwarrantable failure to comply with mandatory health or safety standards. |
| ● | Section 110(b)(2) Violations: The total number of flagrant violations issued by MSHA under section 110(b)(2) of the Mine Act. |
| ● | Section 107(a) Orders: The total number of orders issued by MSHA under section 107(a) of the Mine Act for situations in which MSHA determined an imminent danger existed. |
Citations and orders can be contested before the Federal Mine Safety and Health Review Commission (the “Commission”), and as part of that process, are often reduced in severity and amount, and are sometimes dismissed. The Commission is an independent adjudicative agency that provides administrative trial and appellate review of legal disputes arising under the Mine Act. These cases may involve, among other questions, challenges by operators to citations, orders and penalties they have received from MSHA, or complaints of discrimination by miners under section 105 of the Mine Act.

| (1) | The definition of a mine under section 3 of the Mine Act includes the mine, as well as other items used in, or to be used in, or resulting from, the work of extracting and processing limestone, such as roads, land, structures, facilities, equipment, machines, tools, kilns, and other property. These other items associated with a single mine have been aggregated in the totals for that mine. |
| (2) | The proposed MSHA assessments issued during the reporting period do not necessarily relate to the citations or orders issued by MSHA during the reporting period or to any pending contests reported above. |
| (3) | Includes any pending legal actions before the Commission involving such mine as of June 30, 2025. Any pending legal actions were initiated by the Company. The pending legal actions may relate to the citations or orders issued by MSHA during the reporting period or to citations or orders issued in prior periods. Due to timing and other factors, the data may not agree with the mine data retrieval system maintained by MSHA. There were two legal actions resolved and none instituted during the reporting period. |
Pattern or Potential Pattern of Violations. During the quarter ended June 30, 2025, none of the mines operated by the Company received written notice from MSHA of either (a) a pattern of violations of mandatory health or safety standards that are of such nature as could have significantly and substantially contributed to mine health or safety hazards under section 104(e) of the Mine Act or (b) the potential to have such a pattern.
