For the Quarter Ended March 31, 2009

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.		Significant Accounting Policies

		Basis of Presentation

		The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. (the “Corporation”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and to Article 10 of Regulation S-X. The Corporation has continued to follow the accounting policies set forth in the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 17, 2009. In the opinion of management, the interim financial information provided herein reflects all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations, financial position and cash flows for the interim periods. The results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 are not indicative of the results expected for other interim periods or the full year.

		Comprehensive Earnings

		Consolidated comprehensive earnings/loss for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 was a loss of $4,455,000 and earnings of $16,231,000, respectively, and consist of consolidated net earnings or loss; amortization of actuarial losses, prior service costs and transition assets related to pension and postretirement benefits; foreign currency translation adjustments; for 2009, amortization of the terminated value of forward starting interest rate swap agreements into interest expense; and, for 2008, changes in the fair value of forward starting interest rate swap agreements.

		Derivatives

		The Corporation records derivative instruments at fair value on its consolidated balance sheet. At March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, the Corporation did not hold any derivative instruments. At March 31, 2008, the Corporation’s derivatives were forward starting interest rate swaps, which represented cash flow hedges. The Corporation’s objective for holding these derivatives was to lock in the interest rate related to a portion of the Corporation’s refinancing of Notes due in 2008. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“FAS 133”), the fair values of these hedges were recorded as other assets or liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet and changes in the fair value were recorded, net of tax, directly in shareholders’ equity as other comprehensive earnings or loss. In April 2008, the Corporation unwound these cash flow hedges in connection with a public debt offering (see Note 5) and the accumulated other comprehensive loss at the date of termination is being charged to earnings in the same periods as interest expense is incurred on the underlying debt issuance.

For the Quarter Ended March 31, 2009

CONDENSED NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)

1.		Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

		Accounting Changes

		In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Staff Position No. FAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, beginning January 1, 2009, if the Corporation is required to record any nonrecurring nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities at fair value, they are measured in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements.

		On January 1, 2009, the Corporation adopted Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (“FAS 141(R)”) and No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB 51 (“FAS 160”). FAS 141(R) requires recognizing the full fair value of all assets acquired, liabilities assumed and noncontrolling minority interests in acquisitions of less than a 100% controlling interest; expensing all acquisition-related transaction and restructuring costs; capitalizing in-process research and development assets acquired; and recognizing contingent consideration obligations and contingent gains acquired and contingent losses assumed. FAS 160 requires the classification of noncontrolling interests as a separate component of equity and net earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests as a separate line item on the face of the income statement. FAS 141(R) and FAS 160 require prospective application for all business combinations with acquisition dates on or after the effective date. The Corporation did not consummate any business combinations during the three months ended March 31, 2009.

		FAS 160 also requires retrospective application of its disclosure and presentation requirements for all periods presented. Accordingly, noncontrolling interests at December 31, 2008 and March 31, 2008, which were previously reported as other noncurrent liabilities, have been reclassified as a separate component of equity. Furthermore, the net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests for the three months ended March 31, 2008 has been presented as a separate line item on the Corporation’s consolidated statement of earnings. Consolidated comprehensive earnings for the three months ended March 31, 2008 were also adjusted to include the comprehensive loss attributable to noncontrolling interests.

		Reclassifications

		Certain 2008 amounts, in addition to those required by FAS 160, have been reclassified to conform to the 2009 presentation. The reclassifications had no impact on previously reported results of operations or financial position.

5.		Long-Term Debt (continued)

		In connection with the issuance of the 6.6% Senior Notes, on April 16, 2008, the Corporation unwound its two forward starting interest rate swap agreements with a total notional amount of $150,000,000 (the “Swap Agreements”). The Corporation made a cash payment of $11,139,000, which represented the fair value of the Swap Agreements on the date of termination. The accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax, at the date of termination is being recognized in earnings over the life of the 6.6% Senior Notes. For the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Corporation recognized $203,000, net of tax, as additional interest expense. The accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the Swap Agreements at March 31, 2009 was $6,271,000, net of cumulative noncurrent deferred tax assets of $4,102,000. The ongoing amortization of the terminated value of the Swap Agreements will increase annual interest expense by approximately $1,000,000 until the maturity of the 6.6% Senior Notes in 2018. At March 31, 2008, the fair value of the Swap Agreements was a liability of $13,786,000 and was included in other current liabilities in the Corporation’s consolidated balance sheet. This fair value represented the estimated amount, using Level 2 observable market inputs for similar liabilities, the Corporation would have expected to pay to terminate the Swap Agreements at that date. Other comprehensive earnings/loss for the three months ended March 31, 2008 included a loss of $3,935,000, net of tax, for the change in fair value of the Swap Agreements.

		On October 24, 2008, the Corporation amended its $325,000,000 five-year revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) to provide for an increased leverage ratio covenant. As amended, the covenant requires the Corporation’s ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization (EBITDA), as defined, for the trailing twelve months (the “Ratio”) to not exceed 3.25 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. Furthermore, the covenant allows the Ratio to exclude debt incurred in connection with an acquisition for a period of 180 days, provided that the Ratio does not exceed 3.50 to 1.00. The Corporation was in compliance with the Ratio at March 31, 2009.

		At March 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, $180,000,000 and $200,000,000, respectively, was outstanding under the Credit Agreement. The Corporation used the borrowings from the Credit Agreement to repay its $200,000,000 5.875% Notes that matured in December 2008. No borrowings were outstanding under the Credit Agreement at March 31, 2008.

		The Credit Agreement supports a $325,000,000 commercial paper program to the extent commercial paper is available to the Corporation. No borrowings were outstanding under the commercial paper program at March 31, 2009 or December 31, 2008. At March 31, 2008, commercial paper borrowings of $81,000,000 were outstanding.

6.		Income Taxes

		As required by FAS 160, income tax (benefit) expense reported on the Corporation’s consolidated statements of earnings includes income taxes on earnings attributable to both controlling and noncontrolling interests. The adoption of FAS 160 increased the consolidated overall effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2008 by 0.9%.


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2009			2008
Estimated effective income tax rate:
Continuing operations		25.3	%		25.3	%

Discontinued operations		27.9	%		40.9	%

Consolidated Overall		25.3	%		25.1	%

The Corporation’s effective income tax rate reflects the effect of state income taxes and the impact of differences in book and tax accounting arising from the net permanent benefits associated with the depletion allowances for mineral reserves, the domestic production deduction and the tax effect of nondeductibility of goodwill related to asset sales. The effective income tax rates for discontinued operations reflect the tax effects of individual operations’ transactions and are not indicative of the Corporation’s overall effective income tax rate.

7.		Pension and Postretirement Benefits

		The following presents the estimated components of the recorded net periodic benefit cost for pension and postretirement benefits for the three months ended March 31 (dollars in thousands):


	Pension						Postretirement Benefits
	2009			2008			2009			2008
Service cost	$	3,022		$	3,140		$	154		$	159

13.		Subsequent Events

		On April 21, 2009, the Corporation entered into a $100,000,000 three-year secured accounts receivable credit facility (the “AR Credit Facility”) with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”). The AR Credit Facility provides for borrowings, on a revolving basis, of up to 90% of the Corporation’s eligible accounts receivable less than 90 days old and bears interest at a rate equal to the one-month LIBOR plus 2.75%, 3.19% at May 5, 2009. Under the AR Credit Facility, purchases and settlements will be made bi-weekly between the Corporation and Wells Fargo. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions in the AR Credit Facility, Wells Fargo may determine which receivables are eligible receivables, may determine the amount it will advance on such receivables, and may require the Corporation to repay advances made on receivables and thereby repay amounts outstanding under the AR Credit Facility. Wells Fargo also has the right to require the Corporation to repurchase receivables that remain outstanding 90 days past their invoice date. The Corporation continues to be responsible for the servicing and administration of the receivables purchased. The Corporation will carry the receivables and outstanding borrowings on its consolidated balance sheet.

		On April 23, 2009, the Corporation entered into a $130,000,000 unsecured term loan with a syndicate of banks (the “Term Loan”). The Term Loan bears interest, at the Corporation’s option, at rates based upon LIBOR or a base rate, plus, for each rate, basis points related to a pricing grid. The base rate is defined as the highest of (i) the bank’s prime lending rate, (ii) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5% and (iii) one-month LIBOR plus 1%. The initial rates on the Term Loan were at one-month LIBOR plus 300 basis points, or 3.44%. The Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments of $1,625,000 through March 31, 2011 and $3,250,000 thereafter, with the remaining outstanding principal due in full on June 6, 2012.

		Both the AR Credit Facility and Term Loan require the Corporation’s ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization (EBITDA) for the trailing twelve months (the “Ratio”) to not exceed 3.25 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter, provided that the Corporation may exclude from the Ratio debt incurred in connection with acquisitions for a period of 180 days so long as the Corporation maintains specified ratings on its long-term unsecured debt and the Ratio calculated without such exclusion does not exceed 3.50 to 1.00.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
First Quarter Ended March 31, 2009

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

OVERVIEW Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. (the “Corporation”), conducts its operations through four reportable business segments: Mideast Group, Southeast Group, West Group (collectively, the “Aggregates business”) and Specialty Products. The Corporation’s net sales and earnings are predominately derived from its Aggregates business, which processes and sells granite, limestone, and other aggregates products from a network of 288 quarries, distribution facilities and plants to customers in 29 states, Canada, the Bahamas and the Caribbean Islands. The Aggregates business’ products are used primarily by commercial customers principally in domestic construction of highways and other infrastructure projects and for commercial and residential buildings. The Specialty Products segment produces magnesia-based chemicals products used in industrial, agricultural and environmental applications and dolomitic lime sold primarily to customers in the steel industry.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Corporation outlined its critical accounting policies in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 17, 2009.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Except as indicated, the following comparative analysis in the Results of Operations section of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations reflects results from continuing operations and is based on net sales and cost of sales.

Gross margin as a percentage of net sales and operating margin as a percentage of net sales represent non-GAAP measures. The Corporation presents these ratios calculated based on net sales, as it is consistent with the basis by which management reviews the Corporation’s operating results. Further, management believes it is consistent with the basis by which investors analyze the Corporation’s operating results given that freight and delivery revenues and costs represent pass-throughs and have no profit mark-up. Gross margin and operating margin calculated as percentages of total revenues represent the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The following tables present the calculations of gross margin and operating margin for the three months ended March 31, 2009 and 2008 in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations of the ratios as percentages of total revenues to percentages of net sales (dollars in thousands):

Historically, due to the seasonality of the Aggregates business, the first quarter is the Corporation’s weakest since aggregates shipments and profitability are lowest and most volatile during this period. Further, the Corporation’s performance was affected this year by the recession and unusually cold, wet weather throughout the southern United States. The Corporation mitigated the impact of declining aggregates volumes by maintaining its focus on cost management, thereby continuing to generate operating earnings.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
First Quarter Ended March 31, 2009
(Continued)

Mindful of the state of the economy, the Corporation’s operating teams remained focused on efficiently running the business while positioning the Corporation’s cost structure for the current environment and eventual recovery. The results of their efforts included a 12% reduction in consolidated cost of sales, despite expected increases in depreciation and pension costs. Productivity, as measured by tons-per-worked man hours, improved over the first quarter of 2008, despite a 25% decline in production volumes. The Corporation reduced its aggregates inventory tonnage by closely controlling the operating schedules at each of its quarries. As expected, diesel fuel prices continued to decline during the first quarter from the peak prices experienced in 2008. This decrease, combined with a reduction in consumption, contributed to a $14 million decline in diesel fuel expense compared with the prior-year period.

The Aggregates business continued to experience pricing increases in the aggregates product line consistent with management’s expectations for the full year; however, weather affected pricing more than management had anticipated. The unusually cold and wet weather in the Carolinas and Georgia, particularly during March, skewed the geographic mix of business toward the Southeast and West Groups. Management believes that heritage aggregates pricing in the first quarter of 2009 would have increased an additional 100 basis points if the geographic distribution of business were the same as in the first quarter 2008.

The following tables present volume and pricing data and shipments data for the aggregates product line. Heritage aggregates operations exclude volume and pricing data for acquisitions that were not included in prior-year operations for the comparable period and divestitures.

(1)		Volume/pricing variances reflect the percentage increase/(decrease) from the comparable period in the prior year.

(2)		Heritage Aggregates Product Line excludes volume and pricing data for acquisitions that have not been included in prior-year operations for the comparable period and divestitures.

(3)		Aggregates Product Line includes all acquisitions from the date of acquisition and divestitures through the date of disposal.

(4)		Divestitures include the tons related to divested aggregates product line operations up to the date of divestiture.

The Aggregates business is significantly affected by seasonal changes and other weather-related conditions. Aggregates production and shipment levels coincide with general construction activity levels, most of which occurs in the spring, summer and fall. Thus, production and shipment levels vary by quarter. Operations concentrated in the northern United States generally experience more severe winter weather conditions than operations in the Southeast and Southwest. Excessive rainfall, and conversely excessive drought, can also jeopardize shipments, production and profitability. Because of the potentially significant impact of weather on the Corporation’s operations, first quarter results are not indicative of expected performance for other interim periods or the full year.

Specialty Products’ net sales were $33.2 million for the first quarter 2009 compared with $42.9 million for the prior-year period. The decrease in net sales is due to reduced dolomitic lime shipments to the steel industry and slowing magnesia chemicals sales. Price increases, coupled with cost control, helped mitigate the decline in volumes. Earnings from operations for the quarter of $6.3 million decreased $2.8 million compared with the prior-year quarter.

The Corporation’s gross margin excluding freight and delivery revenues for the quarter ended March 31 decreased 430 basis points to 14.7% in 2009. The following presents a rollforward of the Corporation’s gross profit (dollars in thousands):


Consolidated gross profit, quarter ended March 31, 2008	$	75,148

Selling, general and administrative expenses declined $0.5 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2009, with other savings offsetting a $1.8 million increase in pension expense. The Corporation’s objective continues to be to reduce selling, general and administrative spending after absorbing pension expense increases.

Among other items, other operating income and expenses, net, includes gains and losses on the sale of assets; gains and losses related to certain accounts receivable; rental, royalty and services income; and the accretion and depreciation expenses related to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations. For the first quarter, consolidated other operating income and expenses, net, was an expense of $0.3 million in 2009 compared with income of $5.6 million in 2008. First quarter 2008 results included a $5.5 million gain on the sale of land for the Mideast Group.

Consolidated operating margin excluding freight and delivery revenues was 3.3% for the first quarter 2009 compared with 10.8% in the first quarter 2008. The 2009 decrease of 750 basis points as compared with 2008 is due to the lower gross margin excluding freight and delivery revenues and lower other operating income and expenses, net. Excluding the $5.5 million of nonrecurring gains on asset sales during the three months ended March 31, 2008, operating margin excluding freight and delivery revenues for first quarter 2008 would have been 9.4%.

Interest expense was $18.5 million for the first quarter 2009 as compared with $15.8 million for the prior-year quarter. The increase primarily resulted from interest for the 6.6% Senior Notes issued in April 2008, as well as outstanding borrowings on the Corporation’s $325 million five-year revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”).

In addition to other offsetting amounts, other nonoperating income and expenses, net, are comprised generally of interest income and net equity earnings from nonconsolidated investments. Consolidated other nonoperating income and expenses, net, for the quarter ended March 31, was expense of $1.0 million in 2009 compared with income of $0.1 million in 2008, primarily as a result of lower earnings from nonconsolidated equity investments and a higher loss on foreign currency transactions.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2009 was $64.8 million compared with $76.7 million in the comparable period of 2008. Operating cash flow is generally from consolidated net earnings, before deducting depreciation, depletion and amortization, offset by working capital requirements. Net cash provided by operating activities for the first three months of 2009 as compared with the year-earlier period reflects lower consolidated net earnings before depreciation, depletion and amortization, partially offset by increased accounts payable due to the timing of payments.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization was as follows (dollars in thousands):


	Three Months Ended
	March 31,
	2009		2008
Depreciation	$	41,193	$	37,555
Depletion		709		672
Amortization		717		695

	$	42,619	$	38,922

The seasonal nature of the construction aggregates business impacts quarterly operating cash flow when compared with the year. Full year 2008 net cash provided by operating activities was $341.7 million, compared with $76.7 million for the first three months of 2008.

First quarter capital expenditures, exclusive of acquisitions, were $40.3 million in 2009 and $85.4 million in 2008. Capital expenditures during the first three months of 2008 included work on several major plant expansion and efficiency projects. Comparable full-year capital expenditures were $258.2 million in 2008. Full-year capital spending is expected to approximate $185 million for 2009, excluding the Hunt Martin Materials joint venture and acquisitions. However, 2009 capital spending could be reduced, if necessary, to a maintenance level, defined as aggregates depreciation, depletion and amortization.

On March 5, 2009, the Corporation entered into a distribution agreement with J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. (“J.P. Morgan”). Under the distribution agreement, the Corporation could offer and sell up to 5,000,000 shares of its common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $300 million from time to time through J.P. Morgan, as distribution agent. From March 5, 2009 through March 31, 2009, the Corporation sold 3,051,365 shares of its common stock at an average price of $77.90 per share, resulting in gross proceeds to the Corporation of $237.7 million. The aggregate net proceeds from such sales were $232.9 million after deducting related expenses, including $4.8 million in gross sales commissions paid to J.P. Morgan. Of the aggregate net proceeds $37.6 million was received subsequent to March 31, 2009.

The Corporation can purchase its common stock through open-market purchases pursuant to authority granted by its Board of Directors. The Corporation did not repurchase any shares of common stock during the quarter ended March 31, 2009. At March 31, 2009, 5,042,000 shares of common stock were remaining under the Corporation’s repurchase authorization.

On October 24, 2008, the Corporation amended its Credit Agreement to provide for an increased leverage ratio covenant. As amended, the covenant requires the Corporation’s ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization (EBITDA), as defined, for the trailing twelve months (the “Ratio”) to not exceed 3.25 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. Furthermore, the covenant allows the Ratio to exclude debt incurred in connection with an acquisition for a period of 180 days, provided that the Ratio does not exceed 3.50 to 1.00. The Ratio is calculated as total long-term debt divided by consolidated EBITDA, as defined, for the trailing twelve months. Consolidated EBITDA is generally defined as earnings before interest expense, income tax expense, and depreciation, depletion and amortization expense for continuing operations. Additionally, stock-based compensation expense is added back and interest income is deducted in the calculation of consolidated EBITDA. Certain other nonrecurring items and noncash items, if they occur, can affect the calculation of consolidated EBITDA. At March 31, 2009, the Corporation’s ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated EBITDA, as defined, for the trailing twelve month EBITDA was 2.84 and was calculated as follows (dollars in thousands):

In the event of a default on the leverage ratio, the lenders can terminate the Credit Agreement and declare any outstanding balance as immediately due.

On April 14, 2009, the Corporation repaid $180 million of borrowings outstanding under its Credit Agreement.

On April 21, 2009, the Corporation entered into a $100 million three-year secured accounts receivable credit facility (the “AR Credit Facility”) with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”). The AR Credit Facility provides for borrowings, on a revolving basis, of up to 90% of the Corporation’s eligible accounts receivable less than 90 days old and bears interest at a rate equal to the one-month LIBOR plus 2.75%, 3.19% at May 5, 2009. Under the AR Credit Facility, purchases and settlements will be made bi-weekly between the Corporation and Wells Fargo. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions in the AR Credit Facility, Wells Fargo may determine which receivables are eligible receivables, may determine the amount it will advance on such receivables, and may require the Corporation to repay advances made on receivables and thereby repay amounts outstanding under the AR Credit Facility. Wells Fargo also has the right to require the Corporation to repurchase receivables that remain outstanding 90 days past their invoice date. The Corporation continues to be responsible for the servicing and administration of the receivables purchased. The Corporation will carry the receivables and outstanding borrowings on its consolidated balance sheet.

On April 23, 2009, the Corporation entered into a $130 million unsecured term loan with a syndicate of banks (the “Term Loan”). The Term Loan bears interest, at the Corporation’s option, at rates based upon LIBOR or a base rate, plus, for each rate, basis points related to a pricing grid. The base rate is defined as the highest of (i) the bank’s prime lending rate, (ii) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5% and (iii) one-month LIBOR plus 1%. The initial rates on the Term Loan were at one-month LIBOR plus 300 basis points, or 3.44%. The Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments of $1.6 million through March 31, 2011 and $3.3 million thereafter, with the remaining outstanding principal due in full on June 6, 2012.

Both the AR Credit Facility and Term Loan require the Corporation’s ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization (EBITDA) for the trailing twelve months (the “Ratio”) to not exceed 3.25 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter, provided that the Corporation may exclude from the Ratio debt incurred in connection with acquisitions for a period of 180 days so long as the Corporation maintains specified ratings on its long-term unsecured debt and the Ratio calculated without such exclusion does not exceed 3.50 to 1.00.

Cash on hand, along with the Corporation’s projected internal cash flows and availability of financing resources, including its access to debt and equity capital markets, are expected to continue to be sufficient to provide the capital resources necessary to support anticipated operating needs, cover debt service requirements, meet capital expenditures and discretionary investment needs, fund certain acquisition opportunities that may arise, and allow for payment of dividends for the foreseeable future. At March 31, 2009, the Corporation had $143 million of unused borrowing capacity under its Credit Agreement, subject to complying with the related leverage covenant. Consistent with the Corporation’s objective of obtaining sufficient committed financing at least twelve months in advance of pending maturities, the AR Credit Facility and Term Loan provide sufficient liquidity to refinance the maturity of the Corporation’s $225 million of Senior Notes due in April, 2010. The proceeds from the new credit facilities and the equity issuances were used to pay down outstanding amounts under the Corporation’s Credit Agreement and will provide financing flexibility for, among other things, potential strategic activity.

The Corporation’s ability to borrow or issue securities is dependent upon, among other things, prevailing economic, financial and market conditions. Based on discussions with the Corporation’s bank group, the Corporation expects to have continued access to the public credit market, although at a higher cost of debt when compared with its 5.2% weighted average interest rate at March 31, 2009.

The Corporation may be required to obtain financing in order to fund certain strategic acquisitions, if any such opportunities arise, or to refinance outstanding debt. Any strategic acquisition of size would require an appropriate balance of newly issued equity with debt in order to maintain an investment grade credit rating. Borrowings under the AR Credit Facility would be limited based on the balance of the Corporation’s accounts receivable. Furthermore, the Corporation is exposed to risk from tightening credit markets, through the interest cost related to its $225 million Floating Rate Senior Notes due in 2010 and the interest cost related to its commercial paper program, to the extent that it is available to the Corporation. Currently, the Corporation’s senior unsecured debt is rated BBB+ by Standard & Poor’s and Baa3 by Moody’s. The Corporation’s commercial paper obligations are rated A-2 by Standard & Poor’s and P-3 by Moody’s. While management believes its credit ratings will remain at an investment-grade level, no assurance can be given that these ratings will remain at those levels.

ACCOUNTING CHANGES As discussed in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, effective January 1, 2009, the Corporation adopted FAS 141(R) and FAS 160.

TRENDS AND RISKS The Corporation outlined the risks associated with its business in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 17, 2009. Management continues to evaluate its exposure to all operating risks on an ongoing basis.

OUTLOOK 2009 The overriding drivers of the Corporation’s 2009 performance will likely be a number of macroeconomic factors. Management’s current thinking envisions growth during the second half of 2009, primarily fueled by the economic stimulus plan. Management is encouraged by the increase in the number of projects being bid in many of the states in which the Corporation operates. Specifically, the Federal Highway Administration had approved 2,013 projects as of April 15, indicating that road work represents the vast majority of approved recovery efforts. As expected, the mix of projects is currently weighted heavily towards resurfacing, as this type of work lends itself to meeting the aggressive timetable under which states are expected to use much of the stimulus money. The Corporation’s quarries are well positioned to serve many of the projects being bid. The Corporation is also bidding on projects outside of the infrastructure sector that are funded by the stimulus plan. That said, the Corporation has not seen enough activity in the first quarter to apply more precision to its current estimates. Management continues to expect that favorable energy prices, as experienced during the first quarter, will contribute a range of $35 million to $50 million to operating profitability in 2009.

(Continued)

As previously stated, 2009 will be a challenging year given the continued uncertainty in the United States economy. Management is carefully monitoring the states and how they prepare to invest the stimulus funding. In addition, the Corporation is watching closely as many states explore alternative means of funding their infrastructure over the longer term. Infrastructure demand will continue to be pressured as states grapple with long-term resolutions for their budget deficits. Commercial demand is weak, primarily in office and retail construction. Industrial-related construction demand, which includes alternative energy projects, is being dampened by disruption in the credit markets and decreasing energy prices. While residential construction has neared its bottom in many of the Corporation’s markets, management does not expect growth in the homebuilding sector to materialize in a significant way in 2009. In contrast, management expects steady growth for chemical-grade aggregates used for flue gas desulfurization and in agriculture lime, as well as ballast used in the railroad industry. In the Specialty Products segment, demand for magnesia-based chemicals products should track the general economy. However, with a greater emphasis on clean air, clean water, and other green initiatives, there may be some incremental volume for projects funded by the stimulus plan. Dolomitic lime is used in both chemicals products and as a fluxing agent in steel production. Management does not expect volume growth in dolomitic lime in 2009 as steel production is forecasted to decrease as the major automakers, significant consumers of steel, have announced extended shutdowns over the summer. The Specialty Products segment has responded to the changing economic dynamics of its business through reductions in maintenance activities and contract services and through workforce reductions to match current demand.

Based upon the scenario described above, and taking into consideration the Corporation’s results reported for the first quarter, the Corporation’s 2009 guidance of net earnings per diluted share, excluding the effect of the economic stimulus plan, is in the range of $3.70 to $4.15. The Corporation expects incremental aggregates volume of 8 million to 10 million tons and net earnings per diluted share of $0.50 to $0.75 for 2009 from the economic stimulus plan. Management expects to be able to update its guidance for the year as it gains further clarity about the impact of the economic stimulus plan.

Specifically, management expects aggregates volumes to range from down 9% to 12%, excluding the effect of the economic stimulus plan. The rate of price increase for the aggregates product line is expected to be in a range from 4% to 6%. The Specialty Products segment is expected to contribute $30 million to $32 million in pretax earnings compared with $28 million in 2008.

Investors are cautioned that all statements in this Quarterly Report that relate to the future involve risks and uncertainties, and are based on assumptions that the Corporation believes in good faith are reasonable but which may be materially different from actual results. Forward-looking statements give the investor our expectations or forecasts of future events. You can identify these statements by the fact that they do not relate only to historical or current facts. They may use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” and other words of similar meaning in connection with future events or future operating or financial performance. Any or all of our forward-looking statements here and in other publications may turn out to be wrong.

Factors that the Corporation currently believes could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include, but are not limited to, the performance of the United States economy and assumed stabilization in the second half of 2009; the level and timing of federal and state transportation funding, particularly in North Carolina, one of the Corporation’s largest and most profitable states, and Georgia, Texas and South Carolina, which when coupled with North Carolina, represented 52% of 2008 net sales in the Aggregates business; the ability of states and/or other entities to finance approved projects; levels of construction spending in the markets the Corporation serves; the severity of a continued decline in the residential construction market and the slowing growth rate in commercial construction, notably office and retail space; unfavorable weather conditions, particularly Atlantic Ocean hurricane activity, the late start to spring or the early onset of winter and the impact of drought in the Southeastern United States; the volatility of fuel costs, particularly diesel fuel, and the impact on the cost of other consumables, namely steel, explosives, tires and conveyor belts; continued increases in the cost of other repair and supply parts; transportation availability, notably barge availability on the Mississippi River system and the availability of railcars and locomotive power to move trains to supply the Corporation’s Texas, Florida and Gulf Coast markets; increased transportation costs, including increases from higher passed-through energy costs and higher volumes of rail and water shipments; further weakening in the steel industry markets served by the Corporation’s dolomitic lime products; increased interest cost resulting from further tightening of the credit markets or the unavailability of credit; changes in tax laws, the interpretation of such laws and/or administrative practices that would increase the Corporation’s tax rate; violation of the debt covenant if volumes decline worse than expected; downward pressure on the Corporation’s common stock price and its impact on goodwill impairment evaluations; and other risk factors listed from time to time found in the Corporation’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Other factors besides those listed here may also adversely affect the Corporation and may be material to the Corporation. The Corporation assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The Corporation’s operations are highly dependent upon the interest rate-sensitive construction and steelmaking industries. Consequently, these marketplaces could experience lower levels of economic activity in an environment of rising interest rates or escalating costs.

The current credit environment has negatively affected the economy and management has considered the potential impact to the Corporation’s business. Demand for aggregates products, particularly in the commercial and residential construction markets, could continue to decline if companies and consumers are unable to obtain financing for construction projects or if the economic slowdown causes delays or cancellations to capital projects. Additionally, access to the public debt markets has been limited and, when available, has been at interest rates that are significantly higher than the Corporation’s weighted-average interest rate on outstanding debt. The lack of available credit has also lessened states’ abilities to issue bonds to finance construction projects.

Demand in the residential construction market is affected by interest rates. The Federal Reserve cut the federal funds rate by 425 basis points to zero percent in 2008. The residential construction market accounted for approximately 9% of the Corporation’s aggregates product line shipments in 2008.

Aside from these inherent risks from within its operations, the Corporation’s earnings are affected also by changes in short-term interest rates as a result of any temporary cash investments, including money market funds and overnight investments in Eurodollars; any outstanding short-term facility borrowings; Floating Rate Senior Notes; and defined benefit pension plans. Additionally, the Corporation’s earnings are affected by petroleum-based product costs. The Corporation has no counterparty risk.

Short-Term Facility Borrowings. The Corporation has a $325 million credit agreement which supports its commercial paper program. Borrowings under this facility bear interest at a variable interest rate. The effect of a hypothetical 100-basis-point increase in interest rates on borrowings of $180 million, the outstanding balance at March 31, 2009, would increase interest expense by $1.8 million on an annual basis. The Corporation has a $325 million commercial paper program in which borrowings bear interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR. At March 31, 2009, there were no outstanding commercial paper borrowings.

Floating Rate Senior Notes. The Corporation has $225 million of Floating Rate Senior Notes that bear interest at a rate equal to the three-month LIBOR plus 0.15%. As the Floating Rate Senior Notes bear interest at a variable rate, the Corporation has interest rate risk. The effect of a hypothetical 100-basis-point increase in interest rates on borrowings of $225 million would increase interest expense by $2.3 million on an annual basis.

MARTIN MARIETTA MATERIALS, INC. AND CONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARIES
FORM 10-Q
For the Quarter Ended March 31, 2009

Pension Expense. The Corporation’s results of operations are affected by its pension expense. Assumptions that affect this expense include the discount rate and the expected long-term rate of return on assets. Therefore, the Corporation has interest rate risk associated with these factors. The impact of hypothetical changes in these assumptions on the Corporation’s annual pension expense is discussed in the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 17, 2009.

Petroleum-Based Product Costs. Petroleum-based product costs, including diesel fuel, natural gas and liquid asphalt, represent significant production costs for the Corporation. Increases in these costs generally are tied to energy sector inflation. In 2008, increases in the prices of these products lowered earnings per diluted share by $0.65. A hypothetical 10% change in the Corporation’s petroleum-based product prices in 2009 as compared with 2008, assuming constant volumes, would impact 2009 pretax earnings by approximately $20.7 million.

Aggregate Risk for Interest Rates and Energy Sector Inflation. Interest rate risk in 2009 is limited to the potential effect related to the Corporation’s Floating Rate Senior Notes and borrowings under short-term facilities. The effect of a hypothetical increase in interest rates of 1% on the $225 million Floating Rate Senior Notes and $180 million of borrowings under the credit agreement would be an increase of $4.1 million in interest expense on an annual basis. Additionally, a 10% change in petroleum-based product prices would impact annual pretax earnings by $20.7 million.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2009, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Corporation’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and the operation of the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, the Corporation’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2009. There were no changes in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting.
