2025-04-01
New
Reason
Loop Capital analyst Garik Shmois lowered the firm's price target on Vulcan Materials to $320 from $325 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares as part of a broader research note on Aggregates/Cement names that follows the firm's discussions with key channel contacts at aggregates, cement and ready mix companies. Q1 was hit by weather and private construction weakness is likely to be a headwind moving forward unless macro uncertainty and consumer sentiment improve, even though infrastructure demand remains solid despite headline noise and pricing traction remains unchanged with prior expectations, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Loop adds that it expects Q1 to be modestly below consensus for most names within its coverage, though it doesn't expect any of its companies to change their full year organic guidance as price/cost should offset volume risk.

$290 → $285
2025-03-19
Reason
JPMorgan analyst Adrian Huerta downgraded Martin Marietta (MLM) to Neutral from Overweight with a price target of $560, down from $640. The firm slightly lowered estimates and switched its construction materials preference to Vulcan Materials (VMC) from Martin Marietta. The analyst, however, still sees "an attractive 15% upside" in shares of Martin Marietta. JPMorgan cites reduced margin expectations for its estimate cuts.

2025-03-04
Reason
Stifel resumed coverage of Vulcan Materials with a Buy rating and $287 price target. The firm likes the long-term construction materials market structure, which it believes supports mid- to high-single digit annual pricing growth in aggregates and mid-single digits in cement over the cycle. These pricing gains should outpace costs, creating line of sight to margin expansion for the group, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Stifel likes Vulcan's strategic focus on aggregates with the highest portion of mix amongst public peers.

Reason
Citi lowered the firm's price target on Vulcan Materials to $301 from $325 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Citi updated estimates and top picks as part of a 2025 outlook for the homebuilding and building products group. The firm's 2025 earnings estimates fell 3% on average, and are now below consensus for most producers. After housing starts, remodeling spend, and cement volumes fell in 2024, Citi expects a "very modest rebound year" in 2025, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm remains cautious on homebuilders, which it says have the greatest sensitivity to elevated rates. Its top picks are CRH (CRH), Owens Corning (OC), and Vulcan Materials (VMC).

Maintains
$245 → $290
2024-11-27
Reason
JPMorgan raised the firm's price target on Vulcan Materials to $290 from $245 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. With the U.S. constructing materials sector trading at peak multiples, the "current narrative is priced for perfection and that any signs of growth weakness could pose a de-rating risk," the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm says that while the sector is not a strong buy, it does not foresee significant downside from current levels either. It anticipates aggregates volumes to grow low single digits, with upside risks, driven primarily by infrastructure, while nonresidential and residential are likely to continue lagging.
UBS
Steven Fisher
Strong Buy
Initiates
$349
2024-11-07
Reason
UBS analyst Steven Fisher initiated coverage of Vulcan Materials with a Buy rating and $349 price target. The firm sees Vulcan as a beneficiary of an improving non-residential construction market in the second half of 2025 and 2026, and believes the accompanying earnings uplift is underappreciated. This will support 3%-4% aggregates volume growth in 2026 and also bolster Vulcan's pricing power, the analyst tells investors in a research note.
