VMC VS S&P500
Vulcan has a favorable geographic footprint in states that have a strong need for increased road work and the capability to fund it.
Not-in-my-backyard tendencies make the permitting process incredibly difficult for new quarries, forming high barriers to entry and protecting Vulcan's business from incoming entrants.
Vulcan's exposure to publicly funded infrastructure and repair activity has proved to be resilient during an economic downcycle.
VMC Analyst's Forecast

Citigroup
Strong Buy
Price Target
$325 → $301
Upside
+16.95%
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).
