Vulcan Q2 2026: revenue up 2.5%, EBITDA down slightly, outlook reaffirmed
Vulcan's second quarter was steady rather than spectacular: revenue rose 2.5% to $2.16 billion, adjusted EPS of $2.59 edged past the $2.57 consensus, but Adjusted EBITDA slipped 0.8% to $654.0 million. The read-through is that aggregates pricing and cost control are working while weather and diesel costs hold back the reported numbers. We rate the quarter Neutral.
