Aggregates volumes increased by 2% and pricing increased by 5%, while cement volumes were in line with the prior year period and pricing was 2% behind, reflecting weakness in residential demand and the impact of geographic mix-effects.<\/p>\n \nIn Road Solutions, Total revenues were 2% ahead of the prior year period. Asphalt volumes declined 2%, impacted by adverse weather and divestitures, while pricing increased by 7%. Ready mix concrete volumes increased by 2%, supported by project demand and acquisitions, with pricing up 3% over the same period. Paving and construction revenues were 1% behind the prior year period, as contributions from acquisitions were offset by adverse weather.<\/p>\n \nAdjusted EBITDA for Americas Materials Solutions was 1% ahead of the third quarter of 2025, supported by positive pricing momentum, disciplined cost management and contributions from acquisitions, offsetting the impact of divestitures and cost inflation.

Reconciliation and Supplementary Information<\/b><\/p>\n \nCRH uses a number of non-GAAP financial measures to monitor financial performance. These measures are referred to throughout the discussion of our reported financial position and operating performance on a continuing operations basis unless otherwise defined and are measures which are regularly reviewed by CRH management. These financial measures may not be uniformly defined by all companies and accordingly may not be directly comparable with similarly titled measures and disclosures by other companies.<\/p>\n \nCertain information presented is derived from amounts calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP but is not itself an expressly permitted GAAP measure. The non-GAAP financial measures as summarized below should not be viewed in isolation or as an alternative to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.<\/p>\n Adjusted EBITDA:<\/i><\/b> Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings from continuing operations before interest, taxes, depreciation, depletion, amortization, Loss on impairments, gain\/loss on divestitures and investments, Income\/loss from equity method investments, substantial acquisition and integration-related costs, pension expense\/income excluding current service cost component and transformation-related costs. It is quoted by management in conjunction with other GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures to aid investors in their analysis of the performance of the Company. During the third quarter of 2026, the Company revised its definition of Adjusted EBITDA to exclude substantial acquisition-related integration costs and transformation-related costs. Management believes this revised measure provides a more meaningful representation of performance by excluding non-routine costs that are not reflective of the Company’s underlying performance and may affect comparability. Adjusted EBITDA by segment is monitored by management in order to allocate resources between segments and to assess performance.<\/p>\n Adjusted EBITDA margin<\/i><\/b> is calculated by expressing Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of Total revenues.<\/p>\n \nReconciliation to its most directly comparable GAAP measure is presented below:<\/p>\n \n\n| \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n Three months ended<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n Nine months ended<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n| \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n September 30<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n September 30<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n| \n in $ millions<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 2026<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 2025<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 2026<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 2025<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n| \n Net income<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 1,184<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n1,519<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 2,515<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n2,753<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \nLoss (income) from equity method investments (i)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 41<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n(26)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 43<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n(17)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \nIncome tax expense<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 494<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n428<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 1,100<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n795<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \n(Gain) loss on divestitures and investments (ii)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n (3)<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n(4)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n (263)<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n38<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \nPension income excluding current service cost component (ii)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n (4)<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n(5)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n (22)<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n(14)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \nOther interest, net (ii)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n (3)<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n(3)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n (3)<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n(7)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \nInterest income<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n (22)<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n(37)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n (65)<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n(104)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \nInterest expense<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 209<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n209<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 632<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n590<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \nDepreciation, depletion and amortization<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 555<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n561<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 1,679<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n1,566<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \nLoss on impairments (i)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 178<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n40<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 226<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n40<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \nSubstantial acquisition and integration-related costs (iii)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 4<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n13<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 4<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n13<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \nTransformation-related costs (iv)<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 49<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n\u2013<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 49<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n\u2013<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n Adjusted EBITDA<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 2,682<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n2,695<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 5,895<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n5,653<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \nTotal revenues<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 11,396<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n11,069<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 29,543<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n28,031<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n Net income margin<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 10.4%<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n13.7%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 8.5%<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n9.8%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n Adjusted EBITDA margin<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 23.5%<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n24.3%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n 20.0%<\/b><\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n20.2%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| \n (i) <\/sup>For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the total impairment loss including tax impact comprised of $282 million, principally related to a goodwill impairment recorded within Philippines reporting unit within International Solutions, and the equity method investment in China.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n| \n (ii) <\/sup>(Gain) loss on divestitures and investments, pension income excluding current service cost component and other interest, net have been included in Other nonoperating income (expense), net in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n| \n (iii) <\/sup>Represents expenses associated with non-routine substantial acquisitions, which meet the criteria for being separately reported in Note 4 \u201cAcquisitions\u201d of the unaudited financial statements, as well as other acquisition and integration costs of an extraordinary nature.
