Eagle Materials Inc. (NYSE: EXP) saw its stock price plummet 5.48% in pre-market trading on Tuesday following the release of its fourth-quarter fiscal 2025 financial results, which fell short of analysts' expectations. The construction materials company reported disappointing earnings and revenue figures, raising concerns among investors about its near-term performance.

For the quarter ended March 31, Eagle Materials posted adjusted earnings per share of $2.08, significantly below the $2.48 consensus estimate from analysts polled by FactSet. This represents a 7.14% decrease from the $2.24 per share reported in the same period last year. The company's revenue for Q4 also disappointed, coming in at $470.2 million, down 1.37% year-over-year and missing the FactSet consensus estimate of $481.6 million.

Adding to investor concerns, Eagle Materials reported quarterly net earnings of $66.5 million, a notable decline from the previous year. The company's adjusted EBITDA for Q4 was $141.2 million, falling short of the $156.4 million expected by analysts. These results suggest that Eagle Materials is facing challenges in maintaining its profit margins and growth trajectory, likely contributing to the sharp pre-market sell-off. As the construction materials sector continues to navigate economic uncertainties, investors will be closely watching Eagle Materials' performance in the coming quarters for signs of improvement.
