United States Lime & Minerals reported lower first‑quarter 2026 results, but maintained strong profitability and a debt‑free balance sheet. Revenues were $87.8 million, down 3.7% from $91.3 million, as softer demand from construction, oil and gas, and roof shingle customers more than offset stronger steel demand. Net income declined to $30.6 million, or $1.06 per diluted share, from $34.1 million, or $1.19 per diluted share, mainly due to lower volumes and higher fuel and transportation costs.
Operating cash flow was $32.1 million, compared with $39.4 million a year earlier, while capital expenditures rose to $18.3 million, including $10.0 million for a new vertical kiln at the Texas Lime Company plant.
