The increase in revenues in the second quarter and first six months 2024, compared to the comparable 2023 periods, resulted from increases in average selling prices for the Company’s lime and limestone products, partially offset by decreased sales volumes. The decreases in sales volumes in the second quarter and first six months 2024, compared to the comparable 2023 periods, were principally due to decreased demand from the Company’s construction customers, partially offset by increased demand from its industrial and roof shingle customers.
