Second-Quarter Operating and Financial Results

As previously announced, the Company completed the acquisition of
Aggregates
Second-quarter organic aggregates shipments and pricing increased 1.5 percent and 3.4 percent, respectively. Total aggregates shipments and pricing increased 3.3 percent and 2.9 percent, respectively.
By segment:
- East Group total shipments increased 7.0 percent reflecting strong construction activity in the Carolinas,
Georgia ,Florida andMaryland across all three primary end-use markets and shipments from the recently acquired Tiller operations. This growth more than offset weather-induced project delays in the Midwest. Pricing increased 3.6 percent, reflecting favorable geographic mix. West Group shipments decreased 3.6 percent, as significant rainfall inTexas andColorado hindered robust construction activity. Pricing increased 0.7 percent, reflecting a lower percentage of higher-priced commercial rail-shipped volumes. On a mix-adjusted basis,West Group pricing increased 2.4 percent.
Second-quarter aggregates product gross margin decreased 150 basis points to 34.0 percent, driven by higher diesel costs and a
Cement
Cement shipments decreased 1.9 percent, despite robust demand and construction activity throughout the Texas Triangle, resulting from extreme precipitation from late April through mid-June. Pricing improved 6.8 percent, or 4.2 percent on a mix-adjusted basis, following annual price increases that went into effect on
Cement product gross margin declined 870 basis points to 31.0 percent, driven by the timing of planned outages at the Company’s Hunter plant as well as higher energy and raw materials costs that more than offset pricing gains.
Downstream businesses
Ready mixed concrete shipments increased 8.2 percent, or 2.3 percent organically, as incremental volume from large projects and operations acquired in
Asphalt shipments increased 67.6 percent as incremental volume from the acquired Tiller operations more than offset weather-related shipment declines in

Full-Year Outlook
Martin Marietta remains confident that favorable pricing dynamics will continue, supported by the Company’s locally-driven pricing strategy. Additionally, the Company anticipates single-family housing growth, expanded infrastructure investment and notable heavy industrial projects of scale will drive increased shipment levels. Martin Marietta expects these demand drivers, combined with the ancillary construction necessary for housing community buildouts and the potential for increased infrastructure investment from a comprehensive federal surface transportation package, to result in sustained, multi-year growth in product demand.
The Company has updated its full-year 2021 guidance to reflect recent trends and the contribution of the Tiller acquisition. This guidance excludes any benefit from additional fiscal stimulus, relief funds beyond those already enacted or a potential successor federal surface transportation bill.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Continued)
Mix-adjusted average selling price (mix-adjusted ASP) is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the impact of period-over-period product, geographic and other mix on the average selling price. Mix-adjusted ASP is calculated by comparing current-period shipments to like-for-like shipments in the comparable prior period. Management uses this metric to evaluate the realization of pricing increases and believes this information is useful to investors. The following reconciles reported average selling price to mix-adjusted ASP and corresponding variances.
