About Eagle Materials Inc.

Eagle Materials Inc. is a building materials subsidiary of Centex Corporation. The company was formed through a merger in 1963 and operated under the name "Centex Building Products" from April 1994 until January 30, 2004, during which it was publicly traded. During this period, Centex distributed tax-free dividends to shareholders in the form of EXP shares, a transaction referred to as a "spin-off." Since the spin-off, Eagle Materials has operated independently from Centex. The company's core business involves the manufacturing and distribution of gypsum board and the production and sale of cement. Its gypsum board products are distributed throughout the United States, with a strategic focus on serving markets closest to its manufacturing facilities. Eagle Materials sells cement across six regional markets: Nevada and California, the Greater Chicago area, the Rocky Mountain region, the Central Plains, and Texas. Additionally, the company’s recycled cardboard operations support its gypsum board business, while its concrete and polymer segments bolster the cement division.
