EAGLE MATERIALS INC Revenue Disclosure
Revenue Recognition
We earn Revenue primarily from the sale of products, which include cement, concrete, aggregates, gypsum wallboard, and recycled paperboard. The majority of Revenue from the sale of concrete, aggregates, and gypsum wallboard is originated by purchase orders from our customers, who are mainly third-party contractors and suppliers. Revenue from the sale of cement is sold point-of-sale to customers under sales orders. Revenue from our Recycled Paperboard segment is generated mostly through long-term supply agreements. These agreements do not have a stated maturity date, but may be terminated by either party with a to three-year notice period. We invoice customers upon shipment, and our collection terms range from 30 to 75 days. Revenue from the sale of cement, concrete, aggregates, and gypsum wallboard, which is not under long-term supply agreements, is recognized upon shipment of the related products to customers, which is when title and ownership are transferred, and the customer is obligated to pay.
Revenue from sales under our long-term supply agreements is also recognized upon transfer of control to the customer, which occurs at the time the product is shipped from the production facility. Our long-term supply agreements with customers define, among other commitments, the volume of product we must provide and the volume the customer must purchase by the end of the defined periods. Pricing structures under our agreements are generally market-based, but are subject to certain contractual adjustments. Shortfall amounts, if applicable under these arrangements, are constrained and not recognized as Revenue until agreement is reached with the customer and there is no risk of reversal.
The Company offers certain of its customers, including those with long-term supply agreements, rebates and incentives, which we treat as variable consideration. We adjust the amount of revenue recognized for the variable consideration using the most likely amount method based on past history and projected volumes in the rebate and incentive period. Any amounts billed to customers for taxes are excluded from Revenue.
The Company has elected to treat freight and delivery charges we pay for the delivery of goods to our customers as a fulfillment activity rather than a separate performance obligation. When we arrange for a third party to deliver products to customers, fees for shipping and handling billed to the customer are recorded as Revenue, while costs incurred for shipping and handling are recorded as expenses and included in Cost of Goods Sold.
Approximately $211.2 million, $215.3 million, and $229.6 million of freight for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively, were included in both Revenue and Cost of Goods Sold in our Consolidated Statement of Earnings.
Other Nonoperating Income includes lease and rental income, asset sale income, non-inventoried aggregates sales income, and trucking income, as well as other miscellaneous revenue items and costs that have not been allocated to a business segment.

About Revenue Disclosures
Revenue disclosures under ASC 606 explain how a company identifies performance obligations, allocates transaction prices, and determines when revenue is recognized. This section is essential for understanding whether reported revenue reflects genuine economic activity or aggressive accounting choices. Analysts examine the mix of point-in-time versus over-time recognition, which directly affects revenue timing and comparability.
Key signals: rising contract liabilities (deferred revenue) suggest strong future revenue visibility, while declining contract assets may indicate slowing project milestones. Watch for variable consideration estimates — rebates, returns, and performance bonuses that require management judgment. Significant changes in disaggregated revenue by geography or product line can reveal shifting business mix before it appears in headline numbers. Compare revenue growth against contract liability growth to assess sustainability, and scrutinize any changes in the timing of recognition that coincide with earnings pressure.
