CRH makes aggregates, cement, asphalt and paving products, and increasingly sells them as integrated building solutions in the US, its largest market, where it is the leading producer of aggregates and has a broad network of quarries and plants. The moat is the scarcity and transport cost of those inputs: a quarry near a metro area is hard to permit and expensive to replicate, which supports pricing power and a 36.2% gross margin. The near-term driver is US infrastructure and non-residential construction spending, with the company's 5.6% revenue growth and 19.0% operating margin showing the pricing and volume mix holding up. At 14.5x trailing and 13.0x forward earnings, with a 15.8% return on equity, the shares price in a modest slowdown rather than a downturn, which makes the cyclicality of its end markets the central question for a deeper look.
