Second Quarter Results For the three months ended June 30, 2008, total revenue increased 15.5% to $67.7 million compared to $58.7 million for the second quarter of 2007. Construction services revenue increased 39.0% to $50.5 million compared to $36.3 million for the same period last year, reflecting scheduled progress on the larger value of highway construction projects underway in the second quarter of 2008 versus the same period last year. Construction materials revenue decreased 23.5% to $16.9 million compared to $22.1 million for the same period last year, the result of continued weakness in residential construction in Meadow Valley's primary Phoenix, Arizona and Las Vegas, Nevada metropolitan markets.

This compares to net income after minority interest for the second quarter of 2007 of $0.9 million, or $0.16 per diluted share. At June 30, 2008, Meadow Valley owned 2,645,212 shares, or approximately 69%, of the outstanding common stock of Ready Mix, Inc. (AMEX:RMX).
