Martin Marietta Materials, Inc. (MLM) on Decifer

Why it ranks here

• Its returns on invested money are modest, around 7% and it turns most of its profit into real cash.
• Revenue is expected to grow about 7% a year, profits are expected to grow 18%, and growth is speeding up, not slowing down.
• It keeps a healthy share of every sale as profit, and that has stayed steady over the years, a sign of real pricing power, with profitability widening as it grows.
• It is riding an active market tailwind and has the balance sheet to fund its growth.
