What the Analysts think about USLM
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for United States Lime & Minerals stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of United States Lime & Minerals stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Second-quarter 2026 revenue rose 8.3% and net income rose 11.9% year on year, with higher sales volumes from construction and steel customers driving the improvement. This suggests demand can recover after a softer start to the year. (SEC)
Management said data-centre projects should support construction demand and expected the new Texas kiln to come online in summer 2026. If demand holds and the kiln ramps up successfully, added capacity could support future sales. (SEC)
USLM had $402.6 million in cash and no debt at the end of June 2026. That financial cushion gives it scope to fund investment and maintain its regular dividend without relying on borrowing. (SEC)
First-half revenue grew only 2.3%, while net income was almost unchanged from a year earlier. One recent analysis argued the shares’ valuation leaves limited room for this modest earnings growth. (SEC, Seeking Alpha)
Demand from roof-shingle customers fell in the first half, partially offsetting stronger construction and steel sales. Continued weakness in roofing would leave the company more reliant on its other end markets. (SEC)
Higher fuel and transportation costs partly offset the second-quarter profit gains, and first-half gross profit was nearly flat year on year. Further cost increases could erode margins if USLM cannot pass them on through prices. (SEC)
