US lawsuit dismissed relating to Cemex Colombia Maceo plant

12 February 2020

US: Cemex says that a class action lawsuit filed with the Southern District Court of New York in 2018 has been dismissed. The legal action was made by a group of investors who allege that they were misled in relation to an alleged corruption case in Colombia. The building materials company said that the decision of the court was final and that the plaintiffs would not be entitled to a new trial,

The legal proceedings followed reports in 2018 that the US Department of Justice had requested information from Cemex about a case of alleged corruption in the construction of the Maceo cement plant in Colombia. In 2016 Cemex fired several senior staff members in relation to the Maceo project and its subsidiary’s chief executive resigned. This followed an internal audit and investigation into payments worth around US$20m made to a non-governmental third party in connection with the acquisition of the land, mining rights and benefits of the tax free zone for the project.

Martin Marietta to make deal over Texas Industries acquisition

24 June 2014

US: Martin Martietta Materials has announced that it expects to enter an agreement with the US Department of Justice that will resolve all antitrust concerns over its planned US$2.7bn acquisition of Texas Industries.

Martin Marietta said that it believes the agreement will be finalised by 27 June 2014. It anticipates that the agreement will require it to divest its North Troy quarry in Mill Creek, Oklahoma and two rail yards in Dallas and Frisco, Texas. Martin Marietta has also announced that it plans to restructure Texas Industries' debt, offering US$700m in notes due in 2017 and 2024.

Martin Marietta and Texas Industries are both scheduled to hold special shareholder meetings on 30 June 2014 to vote on proposals. With the addition of Texas Industries, Martin Marietta will operate a network of more than 400 quarries, distribution yards and plants in 36 states, Canada, the Bahamas and the Caribbean.
