STRONG COMPETITIVE POSITION
 
 

 
31
STRONG COMPETITIVE POSITIONS
¨ Texas
  Accounts for approximately 80% of TXI sales
  TXI is the largest cement supplier in the state
  TXI is a low cost cement supplier
  Aggregate and ready mix operations are concentrated in Texas
  Largest expanded shale and clay supplier in Texas
¨ California
  Cement plant expansion makes TXI one of the largest competitors in
 southern California
  Expansion gives TXI low cost cement capacity
 
 

 
32
LOW COST OPERATIONS ARE KEY
Notes:
1 North Texas productivity from the dry kiln for the twelve months ended May 31, 2008
2 Old California productivity for the twelve months ended May 31, 2007
3 Expected California productivity for the new kiln at full capacity
4 Current Central Texas productivity for the twelve months ended May 31, 2008
5 Values reflect the expected combined operations of the current and new kilns at TXI’s Central Texas plant

CEMENT PLANT EXPANSIONS
 
 

 
34
CALIFORNIA CEMENT PLANT
MODERNIZATION AND EXPANSION
¨ Commissioned May 2008
¨ Added 2.3 million tons of state-of-the-art annual cement capacity
¨ Replaced 1.3 million tons of 50 year old production capacity
¨ Combined benefit of more capacity and significantly increased
 production efficiencies
  Compared to old plant
  Should be fully realized when California construction recovers
 
 

 
35
CENTRAL TEXAS CEMENT PLANT EXPANSION
¨ Enhances TXI’s market-leading position in Texas
¨ Adds 1.4 million tons of state-of-the-art cement
 capacity
¨ Existing .9 million ton cement facility will remain in
 operation
¨ Required permits and permissions are in place
¨ Completion of the project has been delayed due to
 market conditions
 
 

 
36
NORTH TEXAS CEMENT PLANT
INCREMENTAL PRODUCTION
¨ The plant’s current annual production capacity is 2.8 million tons
¨ We plan to increase production capacity on the dry kiln, built in 2001,
 by .5 million tons annually
¨ The increased production will come from a series of projects to
 improve the kiln that was added in 2001
¨ Significant clinker production improvements have already been
 realized
¨ The incremental nature of the additional production should improve
 production efficiencies
¨ The project has been delayed due to market conditions
¨ We plan to complete this project when market conditions improve
 
 

 
37
CURRENT MARKET CONDITIONS
 
 

 
38
CURRENT ECONOMIC CONDITIONS
¨ Macroeconomic conditions continue to be challenging
¨ The Texas economy continues to be one of the better economies in the
 nation
¨ California economic activity continues to be weak
¨ Energy costs have been volatile in recent years
¨ Credit markets have begun to heal
 
 

 
39
INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT
¨ The current federal stimulus program calls for approximately $27 - 30
 billion to be invested in highways and bridges
¨ Total recent annual U.S. investment (all sources) in highways and
 bridges has approximated $75 billion
¨ Roadbuilding:
  Creates jobs
  Creates a foundation for further growth and development
¨ The federal government is motivated to put the money to work quickly
¨ Texas and California should receive stimulus funding for infrastructure
 projects of $2.25 billion and $2.6 billion, respectively
¨ Federal funding for other infrastructure investment will help
¨ Highway construction in Texas should be a positive looking forward
 
 

 
40
ACTIONS IN A CHALLENGING ENVIRONMENT
¨ State-of-the-art cement capacity is now in place in California
¨ Two small kilns (600,000 tons of production capacity) were idled in
 October 2008 at the North Texas cement plant
¨ The Crestmore, California grinding facility was idled December 2008
¨ We are managing production to demand for all products
¨ Non-expansion capital expenditures have been reduced
¨ Construction on the Central Texas cement expansion project has been
 suspended
¨ Capital in aggregate operations has been redeployed from South
 Louisiana to Central Texas
¨ We are focused on continuing to reduce costs
¨ Employment has been reduced by approximately 30% since December
 2007
 
 

 
41
FOCUS ON LIQUIDITY
¨ CASH BALANCE OF $57 MILLION AT NOVEMBER 30, 2009
¨ $200 MILLION BANK CREDIT LINE
  Matures August 2012
  Utilization at May 31, 2009 - $28 million of letters of credit
  Amended bank credit line June 2009 to an Asset Based Lending (ABL) structure to eliminate
 maintenance covenants unless borrowing availability under the borrowing base is less than $40
 million
¨ $550 MILLION 7.25% NOTES
  Mature July 2013
  $300 million add-on financing was completed in August 2008
¨ CAPITAL EXPENDITURES WILL DECLINE DRAMATICALLY IN FY 2010
  Capital spending in FY2010 should range from $20 million to $30 million

TXI’S STRATEGY REMAINS INTACT
¨ Expand TXI’s most important business line - Cement
  All projects are at existing sites
 s They utilize infrastructure already in place
 s Growth is organic rather than through acquisitions
  All projects are in attractive long-term markets
  All projects should improve production efficiencies
  All projects should reduce per ton emissions
¨ Expand and improve efficiencies in TXI’s other business lines

 Plus Goodwill Impairment                                                                 (59)
EBITDA                                                                                                      130
EBITDA represents income from continuing operations before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, plus the goodwill impairment
EBITDA is presented because we believe it is a useful indicator of our performance and our ability to meet debt service and capital expenditure requirements.
It is not, however, intended as an alternative measure of operating results or cash flow from operations as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
EBITDA is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
