**CASEY'S GENERAL STORES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES**

**NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED**

**FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**

*(Dollars in Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Amounts)*

*1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Presentation of Financial Statements*

As of October 31, 2025, Casey's General Stores, Inc. and its subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to as the "Company" or "Casey's") operate 2,921 convenience stores in 19 states, primarily in the Midwest. Many of the stores are located in smaller communities, often with populations of less than 20,000.

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts and transactions of Casey's General Stores, Inc. and its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

*2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Basis of Presentation*

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of October 31, 2025 and April 30, 2025, the results of operations for the three and six months ended October 31, 2025 and 2024, and shareholders' equity and cash flows for the six months ended October 31, 2025 and 2024. Although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading, it is suggested that these interim condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company's most recent audited financial statements and notes thereto. Additionally, see the most recent audited financial statements for our consideration of new accounting pronouncements issued prior to this fiscal year.

Amounts in the prior year related to share-based compensation and tax withholdings on employee share-based awards on the condensed consolidated statements of shareholders' equity have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. This reclassification had no impact to the condensed consolidated balance sheets, condensed consolidated statements of income, or the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

*3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Revenue and Cost of Goods Sold*

The Company recognizes retail sales of prepared food and dispensed beverage, grocery and general merchandise, fuel and other revenue at the time of the sale to the guest. Sales taxes collected from guests and remitted to the government are recorded on a net basis in the condensed consolidated statements of income.

A portion of revenue from sales that include points under our Casey's Rewards program is deferred. The deferred portion of the sale represents the value of the estimated future redemption of the points. The amounts related to points are deferred until their redemption or expiration. Revenue related to the points issued is expected to be recognized less than one year from the original sale to the guest. As of October 31, 2025 and April 30, 2025, the Company recognized a contract liability of $68,710 and $64,077, respectively, primarily related to the Casey's Rewards program, which is included in accrued expenses and current portion of operating lease liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company often receives vendor allowances on the basis of quantitative contract terms that vary by product and vendor or directly on the basis of purchases made. Vendor allowances include rebates and other funds received from vendors to promote their products. These amounts are recognized in the period earned based on the applicable rebate agreement. Reimbursements of an operating expense (e.g., advertising) are recorded as reductions of the related expense.

Renewable identification numbers ("RINs") are assigned to gallons of renewable fuels produced and are used to track compliance with the renewable fuel standard. At times, we purchase fuel components (ethanol, gasoline, biodiesel or

------

**<u>[Table](#i719493586d3f43ee80311d8f2b4ffd27_7)[of](#i719493586d3f43ee80311d8f2b4ffd27_7)[Contents](#i719493586d3f43ee80311d8f2b4ffd27_7)</u>**

diesel) and blend those components into a finished product in a fuel truck. This process enables the Company to take title to the RIN assigned to each gallon of ethanol or biodiesel produced. RINs are recorded as a reduction in cost of goods sold at the contracted sales price, in the period when the Company transfers the RIN.

The Company includes in cost of goods sold the costs incurred to acquire fuel and merchandise, including excise taxes, less vendor allowances, vendor rebates and RINs. Warehousing costs are recorded within operating expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

*4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Long-Term Debt and Finance Lease Obligations, Lines of Credit and Fair Value Disclosure*

The fair value of the Company's long-term debt (including current maturities) is estimated based on the current rates offered to the Company for debt of the same or similar issuances. The fair value of the Company's long-term debt was approximately $2,255,000 and $2,285,000 at October 31, 2025 and April 30, 2025, respectively. The fair value calculated excludes finance lease obligations of $108,286 and $108,920 outstanding at October 31, 2025 and April 30, 2025, respectively, which are included with long-term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Interest, net on the condensed consolidated statements of income is net of interest income of $3,804 and $6,781, for the three and six months ended October 31, 2025, and $3,792 and $6,177, for the three and six months ended October 31, 2024. Interest, net is also net of interest capitalized of $757 and $1,252, for the three and six months ended October 31, 2025, and $489 and $908, for the three and six months ended October 31, 2024.

**Revolving Facility**

The Company has a credit agreement that provides for an $850,000 unsecured revolving credit facility ("Revolving Facility"). Amounts borrowed under the Revolving Facility, bear interest at variable rates based upon, at the Company's option, either: (a) either Term SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR, in each case plus 0.10% (with a floor of 0.00%) for the interest period in effect, plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.10% to 1.70% or (b) an alternate base rate, which generally equals the highest of (i) the prime commercial lending rate announced by the Administrative Agent as its "prime rate", (ii) the federal funds rate plus 1/2 of 1.00%, and (iii) Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR plus 1.00%, each plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.10% to 0.70% and each with a floor of 1.00%. The applicable margins and facility fee, in each case, are dependent upon the Company's quarterly Consolidated Leverage Ratio, as defined in the credit agreement. The Company had $0 outstanding under the Revolving Facility at October 31, 2025 and April 30, 2025.

**Bank Line**

The Company has an additional unsecured bank line of credit (the "Bank Line") with availability of up to $50,000. As of October 31, 2025, the availability under the Bank Line is encumbered by letters of credit totaling $274. The Bank Line bears interest at a variable rate subject to change from time to time based on changes in an independent index referred to in the Bank Line as the Federal Funds Offered Rate. There was $0 outstanding under the Bank Line at October 31, 2025 and April 30, 2025. The Bank Line is due upon demand.

*5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Compensation Related Costs and Share-Based Payments*

The 2025 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2025 Plan") was approved by the Company's shareholders on September 3, 2025, at the Company's annual shareholders meeting (the "2025 Plan Effective Date"). There were 1,650,000 shares available for issuance under the 2025 Plan as of the 2025 Plan Effective Date. The 2025 Plan replaces the 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2018 Plan), under which no new awards were allowed to be granted as of the 2025 Plan Effective Date. Outstanding awards under the 2018 Plan continue to be governed by the terms thereof and the award agreements made pursuant thereto, including any such terms that are intended to survive the termination of the 2018 Plan or the settlement of such awards. Shares subject to awards under the 2018 Plan that expire, are forfeited, cancelled, or settled in cash will be added back to the shares available for issuance under the 2025 Plan. Awards under the 2025 Plan may take the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other equity-based and equity-related awards, each of which, upon issuance, is counted as one share against the 2025 Plan share reserve. At October 31, 2025, there were 1,645,676 shares that remain available for grant under the 2025 Plan.

We account for share-based compensation by estimating the grant date fair value of time-based and performance-based restricted stock unit awards using the closing price of our common stock on the applicable grant date, or the date on which performance goals for performance-based units are established, if after the grant date. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur.

The time-based awards most commonly vest ratably over a three-year period commencing on the first anniversary of the grant date. The performance-based awards represent a "target" amount; the final amount earned is based on the satisfaction of certain performance measures over a three-year performance period and will range from 0% to 200% of "target." Additionally, if the Company's relative total shareholder return over the performance period is in the bottom or

------

**<u>[Table](#i719493586d3f43ee80311d8f2b4ffd27_7)[of](#i719493586d3f43ee80311d8f2b4ffd27_7)[Contents](#i719493586d3f43ee80311d8f2b4ffd27_7)</u>**

top quartile of the companies comprising the S&P 500, the performance-based shares included will be adjusted downward by 25%, or upward by 25%, respectively (the "TSR Modifier"). The fair value of the awards with the TSR Modifier is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation as of the date of the grant. For market-based awards, the share-based compensation expense will not be adjusted should the target awards vary from actual awards.

We recognize these amounts as an operating expense in our condensed consolidated statements of income ratably over the requisite service period using the straight-line method, as adjusted for certain retirement provisions, and updated estimates of shares to be issued under performance-based awards. All awards have been granted at no cost to the grantee.

Information concerning the unvested restricted stock units is presented in the following table. At October 31, 2025, there were no stock options, stock appreciation rights or other equity-based awards outstanding.

Total share-based compensation costs recorded for employees and non-employee directors for the six months ended October 31, 2025 and 2024 were $30,659 and $23,645, respectively, related entirely to restricted stock unit awards. As of October 31, 2025, there was $65,814 of unrecognized compensation costs related to restricted stock units which are expected to be recognized through fiscal 2029, with a weighted average remaining term of 1.3 years. The fair value of restricted stock unit awards vested during the six months ended October 31, 2025 was $114,197 as of the applicable vest date.

*6.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Commitments and Contingencies*

From time to time we may be involved in legal or administrative proceedings or investigations arising from the conduct of our business operations, including, but not limited to, contractual or other general business disputes; employment, personnel, or accessibility matters; personal injury and property damage claims; claims by federal, state, and local regulatory authorities relating to the sale of products pursuant to licenses and permits issued by those authorities; and, other claims or proceedings. Claims for damages in those actions may be substantial. While the outcome of such litigation, proceedings, investigations, or claims is never certain, it is our opinion, after taking into consideration legal counsel's assessment and the availability of insurance proceeds and other collateral sources to cover potential losses, that the ultimate disposition of such matters currently pending or threatened, individually or cumulatively, will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position and results of operations.

The Company is named as a defendant in a lawsuit filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Indiana, titled White (f/k/a McColley) v. Casey's General Stores, Inc., in which the plaintiff alleges that the Company misclassified its Store Managers as exempt employees under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The complaint seeks unpaid wages, liquidated damages and attorneys' fees for the plaintiff and all similarly situated Store Managers who worked at the Company from February 16, 2015, to the present. On March 31, 2021, the Court granted conditional certification, and to-date, approximately 1,400 current and/or former Store Managers remain opted-in to participate in the McColley lawsuit. The Company is also named in a related lawsuit filed in the Southern District of Illinois, titled Kessler v. Casey's Marketing Company, et al., with substantially the same allegations and seeking the same relief, but instead for the plaintiff and all similarly situated Store Managers located in the state of Illinois from December 19, 2019, to the present. On October 13, 2023, the Court approved conditional certification, and to-date, approximately 550 current and/or former Store Managers remain opted-in to participate in the Kessler lawsuit. Discovery in both cases is currently underway. The Company believes that adequate provisions have been made for probable losses related to these matters, and that those, and the reasonably possible losses in excess of amounts accrued, where such range of loss can be estimated, are not material to the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company believes that its Store Managers are properly classified as exempt employees under the FLSA and it intends to continue to vigorously defend these matters.

*7.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Unrecognized Tax Benefits*

The total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits was $12,419 and $10,773 at October 31, 2025 and April 30, 2025, respectively. If this unrecognized tax benefit were ultimately recognized, $9,811 is the amount that would impact our effective tax rate. The total net amount of accrued interest and penalties for such unrecognized tax benefits was $374 at October 31, 2025, and $266 at April 30, 2025. Net interest and penalties included in income tax expense for the six months ended October 31, 2025 and 2024 was a net expense of $108 and $154, respectively.

The State of Illinois is currently examining tax years 2020 and 2021. The Company has no other ongoing federal or state income tax examinations. The federal statute of limitations remains open for the tax years 2021 and forward. Tax years 2020 and forward are subject to audit by state tax authorities depending on open statute of limitations waivers and the tax code of each state.

*8.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Segment Reporting*

As of October 31, 2025, we operated 2,921 stores in 19 states. Our convenience stores offer a broad selection of merchandise, fuel and other products and services designed to appeal to the convenience needs of our guests. We manage the business on the basis of one operating segment and therefore, have only one reportable segment. Our stores sell similar products and services, use similar processes to sell those products and services, and sell their products and services to similar classes of guests. We make specific disclosures concerning the three broad categories of prepared food and dispensed beverage, grocery and general merchandise, and fuel because it allows us to more effectively discuss trends and operational initiatives within our business and industry. Although we can separate revenues and cost of goods sold within these categories (and further sub-categories), the operating expenses associated with operating a store that sells these products are not separable by these three categories.

Casey's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") is the President and Chief Executive Officer. The CODM assesses performance for the segment and decides how to allocate resources and capital based on profitability metrics, such as net income, that is reported on the condensed consolidated statements of income. The CODM considers actual-to-forecast variances on a monthly, quarterly and annual basis for this profit measure when making decisions about resource allocation and assessing company performance. Total asset information by segment is not regularly provided to our CODM or utilized for purposes of assessing performance or allocating resources and, as a result, such information has not been presented below.

**<u>Overview</u>**

As of October 31, 2025, Casey's General Stores, Inc. and its direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries operate convenience stores primarily under the names "Casey's" and "Casey's General Store" (collectively, with the stores below referenced as "GoodStop", "CEFCO", "Bucky's", or "Lone Star Food Store", referred to as "Casey's" or the "Company") throughout 19 states, approximately half of which are located in Iowa, Missouri and Illinois.

During the third quarter of the prior fiscal year, the Company closed on the acquisition of Fikes Wholesale and Group Petroleum Services (collectively "Fikes"), owner of CEFCO Convenience Stores, which added 198 total stores (the "Fikes acquisition") and a wholesale fuel network.

As of October 31, 2025, there were 2,921 stores in operation. Approximately 71% of all stores were opened in areas with populations of fewer than 20,000 persons. The Company competes on the basis of price, as well as on the basis of traditional features of convenience store operations such as location, extended hours, product offerings, and quality of service.

All convenience stores carry a broad selection of food items (which at most stores includes, but is not limited to, freshly prepared foods such as regular and breakfast pizza, donuts, hot breakfast items, and hot and cold sandwiches), beverages, tobacco and nicotine products, groceries, health and beauty aids, automotive products, and other non-food items. As of October 31, 2025, 247 store locations offered car washes. In addition, all but six store locations offer fuel.

The Company had 68 stores operating under the "GoodStop (by Casey's)" brand, 10 stores operating under the "Lone Star Food Store" brand, and was also temporarily operating certain locations under the name "Bucky's" as of October 31, 2025. Additionally, the majority of the stores acquired from Fikes are currently operating under the "CEFCO" brand. Similar to most of our store footprint, the "GoodStop", "Lone Star Food Store", "Bucky's", and "CEFCO" locations offer fuel for sale on a self-serve basis, and a broad selection of snacks, beverages, tobacco products, and other essentials. However, some of these locations do not have a kitchen and have limited prepared food offerings.

The Company operates a wholesale network where Casey's manages fuel wholesale supply agreements to certain dealer sites and other wholesale locations. During the prior year, the Company expanded its fuel wholesale network through the Fikes acquisition. The dealer and wholesale locations are not operated by Casey's and are not included in our overall store count in the table below. Approximately 3% of total revenue for the three and six-months ended October 31, 2025, relates to the fuel wholesale network.

The Company operates three distribution centers, through which certain grocery and general merchandise and prepared food and dispensed beverage items are supplied to most of our stores. One distribution center is adjacent to our corporate headquarters, which we refer to as the Store Support Center in Ankeny, Iowa. The other two distribution centers are located in Terre Haute, Indiana and Joplin, Missouri. Additionally, the Company owns and operates a fuel terminal in Waco, Texas, which was acquired from Fikes in the prior year. The Company also self-distributes the majority of fuel to our stores.

The Company's business is seasonal, and generally experiences higher sales and profitability during the first and second fiscal quarters (May-October), when guests tend to purchase greater quantities of fuel and certain convenience items such as beer, sports drinks, water, soft drinks and ice.

The Company reported diluted earnings per common share of $5.53 for the second quarter of fiscal 2026. For the same quarter a year-ago, diluted earnings per common share was $4.85.

The following table represents the roll forward of store count through the second quarter of fiscal 2026:

*Fuel Profitability* 

The Company, and the retail fuel industry, has recently experienced historically high average revenue less cost of goods sold per gallon (exclusive of depreciation and amortization). Although this has remained relatively consistent, on a longer-term basis, this metric can fluctuate significantly, and sometimes unpredictably, in the short-term. While the Company believes that its average revenue less cost of goods sold per gallon (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) will remain elevated from historical levels for the foreseeable future, it is possible that increased oil and fuel prices, higher interest rates, macroeconomic conditions and/or continuing conflicts or disruptions involving oil producing countries may materially impact the performance of this metric.

*Electric Vehicles and Renewable Fuels*

Casey's continues its process of implementing an electric vehicle ("EV") strategy and our management team remains committed to understanding how the increased demand for, and usage of, EVs impacts consumer behavior across our store footprint and beyond. As consumer demand for alternative fuel options continues to grow, Casey's has continued to add EV charging stations across our 19-state footprint. As of October 31, 2025, the Company has 232 charging stations at 48 stores, across 13 states. Our EV growth strategy is currently designed to selectively increase our charging stations at locations within our region where we see higher levels of consumer EV buying trends and demand for EV charging. To date, consumer EV demand within our Midwest footprint has been comparatively lower than the levels along the coasts. As EV demand from our guests increases, we are prepared to strategically integrate charging station options at select stores.

The Company also remains committed to offering renewable fuel options at our stores and continues to expand its alternative fuel options in response to evolving guest needs and as part of its environmental stewardship efforts. Currently, almost all of our stores offer fuel with at least 10% of blended ethanol and approximately 41% of our stores offer biodiesel. Every newly built store has the capability to sell renewable fuels, and we aim to continue growing sales of renewable fuels throughout our footprint.

*Same-Store Sales*

Same-store sales is a common metric used in the convenience store industry. We define same-store sales as the total sales increase (or decrease) for stores open during the full time of both periods being presented. When comparing data, the store must be open for each entire fiscal period being compared. Remodeled stores that remained open or were closed for just a very brief period of time (i.e., less than a week) during the period being compared remain in the same-store sales comparison. If a store is replaced, either at the same location (i.e., razed and rebuilt) or relocated to a new location, it is removed from the comparison until the new store has been open for each entire period being compared. Newly constructed and acquired stores do not enter the calculation until they are open for each entire period being compared.

Same-store sales of prepared food and dispensed beverage increased 4.8% and grocery and general merchandise increased 2.7% during the quarter. The increase in prepared food and dispensed beverage same-store sales was attributable to strong sales of whole pizzas and hot sandwiches. The increase in grocery and general merchandise same-store sales was primarily due to sales of non-alcoholic beverages. Additionally, the second quarter results reflected a 0.8% increase in same-store fuel gallons sold.

Total revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 increased by $559,313 (14.2%) over the comparable period in fiscal 2025, primarily driven by $511,805 of additional revenue from the Fikes acquisition. Prepared food and dispensed beverage revenue increased by $49,972 (12.0%), due to an increase in same-store sales of 4.8% driven by strong sales of whole pizzas and hot sandwiches, as well as an increase of approximately 7.2% related to store growth, due to operating 236 more stores than a year ago. Grocery and general merchandise revenue increased by $140,943 (13.4%), due to an increase in same-store sales of 2.7% driven by sales of non-alcoholic beverages, as well as an increase of approximately 10.7% related to store growth. Retail fuel revenue increased by $272,657 (11.3%) due to an increase in the number of gallons sold of 130,738 (16.8%). This was partially offset by a decrease in the average retail price per gallon of 4.8%.

The other category primarily consists of activity related to wholesale fuel and car wash revenue, which are both presented gross of applicable costs, as well as lottery, which is presented net of applicable costs. Other revenue increased $95,741 (148.2%) for the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the prior year, driven primarily by an increase in wholesale fuel revenue, as a result of the Fikes acquisition. The increased activity related to the wholesale fuel network carries a lower revenue less cost of good sold as a percentage of total revenue. Additionally, other revenue and other revenue less cost of goods sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) was favorably impacted by a one-time adjustment of $8,000 due to a change in estimate related to breakage assumptions on the outstanding gift card liability balance.

Total revenue less cost of goods sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) was 24.9% of revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to 24.3% for the comparable period in the prior year. Prepared food and dispensed beverage revenue less related cost of goods sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) decreased to 58.6% of prepared food and dispensed beverage revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to 58.7% for the comparable period in the prior year driven primarily by the acquisition of Fikes, as the CEFCO stores contribute a lower percentage than a typical Casey's store. Grocery and general merchandise revenue less related cost of goods sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) increased to 36.0% of grocery and general merchandise revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to 35.6% of grocery and general merchandise revenue for the comparable period in the prior year driven primarily by product mix.

Fuel revenue less related cost of goods sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) was 14.0% of fuel revenue during the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to 12.9% for the comparable period in the prior year. Revenue less cost of goods sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) per gallon increased to 41.6 cents in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to 40.2 cents for the comparable period in the prior year. The Company sold 7.0 million RINs (renewable identification numbers) for $7,222 during the quarter, compared to the sale of 6.3 million RINs in the second quarter of the prior year, which generated $4,923 (see Note <u>[3](#i719493586d3f43ee80311d8f2b4ffd27_37)</u>, above, for a further description of RINs and how they are generated).

Operating expenses increased $101,908 (16.7%) to $711,587 in the second quarter of fiscal 2026. Approximately 10.5% of the increase is due to operating 236 more stores than the comparable period in the prior year. Same-store employee expense contributed to approximately 2% of the increase, due to increases in labor rates, as same-store labor hours were flat.

Approximately 1% of the change is related to an increase in accrued costs for variable incentive compensation due to strong financial performance.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $14,824 (15.3%) to $111,416 in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, primarily due to operating 236 more stores than a year ago.

Interest, net increased $12,137 (96.7%) to $24,690 in the second quarter of fiscal 2026, primarily due to issuing incremental debt of $1,100,000 in the prior year to partially fund the acquisition of Fikes.

The effective tax rate increased to 24.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to 24.5% in the same period of fiscal 2025. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to a decrease in favorable permanent differences.

Net income increased $25,418 (14.0%) to $206,336 compared to $180,918 in the comparable period. The increase in net income was primarily attributable to higher profitability both inside the store and in fuel, partially offset by increases in operating expenses, depreciation and amortization, and interest expense. See discussion in the paragraphs above for the primary drivers for each of these changes.

Operating expenses increased by $190,610 (15.6%) in the first six months of fiscal 2026 from the comparable period in the prior year. Operating 236 more stores than the prior year accounted for approximately 10% of the increase. Same-store employee expense contributed to approximately 2% of the increase, due to an increases in labor rates, offset by same-store labor hours down nearly 1%. Approximately 1% of the change is related to an increase in accrued costs for variable incentive compensation due to strong financial performance.

See discussion in the paragraphs above for the primary drivers for each of these changes.

**<u>Use of Non-GAAP Measures</u>**

We define EBITDA as net income before net interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is not considered to be a GAAP measure, and should not be considered as a substitute for net income, cash flows from operating activities or other income or cash flow statement data. This measure has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. We strongly encourage investors to review our financial statements and publicly filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

We believe EBITDA is useful to investors in evaluating our operating performance because securities analysts and other interested parties use this calculation as a measure of financial performance and debt service capabilities, and it is regularly used by management for internal purposes including our capital budgeting process, evaluating acquisition targets, assessing performance, and awarding incentive compensation.

Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, EBITDA, as defined by us, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. It therefore may not be possible to compare our use of this non-GAAP financial measure with those used by other companies.

The following table contains a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA for the three and six months ended October 31, 2025 and 2024:

in fuel, partially offset by higher operating expenses. See discussion in the preceding sections for the primary drivers for each of these individual changes.

**<u>Critical Accounting Policies</u>**

Critical accounting policies are those accounting policies that management believes are important to the portrayal of the Company's financial condition and results of operations. The Company's critical accounting policies are described in the Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2025, and such discussion is incorporated herein by reference. There have been no changes to these policies in the six months ended October 31, 2025.

**<u>Liquidity and Capital Resources</u>**

Due to the nature of the Company's business, cash provided by operations is the Company's primary source of liquidity. The Company finances its inventory purchases primarily from normal trade credit aided by the relatively rapid turnover of inventory. This turnover allows the Company to conduct its operations without large amounts of cash and working capital. As of October 31, 2025, the Company's ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 1.05 to 1. The ratio at October 31, 2024 and April 30, 2025 was 0.88 to 1 and 0.92 to 1, respectively. The increase in the ratio is primarily attributable to an increase in cash and cash equivalents. For further information, refer to discussions on the changes in the sections of the statement of cash flow below.

Management believes that the net availability under the Bank Line of approximately $49,726 and the Revolving Facility of $850,000, combined with the current cash and cash equivalents and the future cash flow from operations will be sufficient to satisfy the working capital needs of our business.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $719,486 for the six months ended October 31, 2025, compared to $552,057 for the comparable period in the prior year, an increase of $167,429. Our primary source of operating cash flows is from sales to guests at our stores. The primary uses of operating cash flows are payments to our team members and suppliers, as well as payments for taxes and interest. Cash flow from operations was favorably impacted by improved revenue less cost of goods sold (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) of $320,317, as well as a decrease in cash paid for taxes of $17,553 compared to the prior year, primarily due to increased accelerated tax depreciation following the reinstatement of 100% bonus depreciation under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. This was offset by an increase in operating expenses of $190,610 and an increase in cash paid for interest of $31,847. Refer to "Six Months Ended October 31, 2025 Compared to Six Months Ended October 31, 2024" starting on page <u>[16](#if50ca1e1fae54edf8b547fe62541c0d2_11894)</u> for further details on the primary drivers for the changes in revenue, cost of goods sold, operating expenses, and interest. Cash flows from operations can also be impacted by variability in the timing of payments and receipts for certain assets and liabilities, such as wage related accruals, accounts payable, and receivables from credit card companies or our vendors. Operating cash flows were also favorably impacted by an increase of $24,144 due to the timing of inventory purchases, as well as an increase of $30,288 related to accounts payable and accrued expenses, due to the timing of payments.

Net cash used in investing activities increased by $98,395. During the first six months of fiscal 2026, the Company expended $368,554 for purchases of property and equipment and payments for acquisitions compared to $257,567 for the comparable period in the prior year. Purchases of property and equipment and payments for acquisitions of businesses typically represent the single largest use of excess Company funds. Management believes that by acquiring, building, and reinvesting in stores, the Company will be better able to drive long-term shareholder value.

Net cash used in financing activities was $209,890 for the six months ended October 31, 2025, compared to net cash provided by financing activities of $999,149 in the comparable period. The change from the prior year was primarily due to the proceeds from long-term debt of $1,100,000 received to partially fund the Fikes acquisition in the prior year. Additionally, the repurchase and retirement of common stock under our share repurchase program resulted in an increase in the net cash used of approximately $61,768 during the period.

The Company has funded purchases of property and equipment and payments for acquisitions of businesses primarily from the issuance of debt, existing cash, and funds generated from operations. Future capital needs required to finance operations, improvements and the anticipated growth in the number of stores are expected to be met from cash generated by operations, the Revolving Facility, the Bank Line, and additional long-term debt or other securities as circumstances may dictate, and are not expected to adversely affect liquidity.

Forward-looking statements represent the Company's current expectations or beliefs concerning future events and trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, liquidity and related sources and needs, supply chain, results of operations and performance at our stores, business strategy, strategic plans, growth opportunities, integration of acquisitions, acquisition synergies, short-term and long-term business operations and objectives including our long-term strategic plan, wholesale fuel, inventory and ingredient costs and the potential effects of the conflicts in oil producing regions and other geopolitical disruptions on our business. The Company cautions that these statements are further qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, the following risk factors described more completely in the Company's Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2025:

<u>Business Operations</u>; Our business and our reputation could be adversely affected by a cyber or data security incident or the failure to protect sensitive guest, Team Member or supplier data, or the failure to comply with applicable regulations relating to data security and privacy; food-safety issues and foodborne illnesses, whether actual or reported, or the failure to comply with applicable regulations relating to the transportation, storage, preparation or service of food, could adversely affect our business and reputation; we may be adversely impacted by increases in the cost of food ingredients and other related costs; a significant disruption to our distribution network, to the capacity of the distribution centers, or timely receipt of inventory could adversely impact our sales or increase our transaction costs, which could have a material adverse effect on our business; we could be adversely affected if we experience difficulties in, or are unable to recruit, hire or retain, members of our leadership team and other distribution, field and store Team Members; any failure to anticipate and respond to changes in consumer preferences, or to introduce and promote innovative technology for guest interaction, could adversely affect our financial results; we rely on our information technology systems, and a number of third-party software providers, to manage numerous aspects of our business, and a disruption of these systems could adversely affect our business; increased credit card expenses could lead to higher operating expenses and other costs for the Company; our operations present hazards and risks which may not be fully covered by insurance, if insured; the dangers inherent in the storage and transport of fuel could cause disruptions and could expose to us potentially significant losses, costs or liabilities; consumer or other litigation could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations; pandemics or disease outbreaks, responsive actions taken by governments and others to mitigate their spread, and guest behavior in response to these events, have, and may in the future, adversely affect our business operations, supply chain and financial results; and, covenants in our Senior Notes and credit facility agreements require us to comply with certain covenants and meet financial maintenance tests and the failure to comply with these requirements could have a material impact to us.

<u>Governmental Actions, Regulations, and Oversight</u>: Compliance with and changes in tax laws could adversely affect our performance; we are subject to extensive governmental regulations; governmental action and campaigns to discourage tobacco and nicotine use and other tobacco products may have a material adverse effect on our revenues and gross profit; and, wholesale cost and tax increases relating to tobacco and nicotine products could affect our operating results.

<u>Industr</u>y: General economic and political conditions that are largely out of the Company's control may adversely affect the Company's financial condition and results of operations; developments related to fuel efficiency, fuel conservation practices, climate change, and changing consumer preferences may decrease the demand for motor fuel; unfavorable weather conditions can adversely affect our business; the volatility of wholesale petroleum costs could adversely affect our operating results; and, the convenience store industry is highly competitive.

<u>Growth Strategies</u>: We may not be able to identify, acquire, and integrate new properties and stores, which could adversely affect our ability to grow our business.

<u>Common Stock</u>: The market price for our common stock has been and may in the future be volatile, which could cause the value of your investment to decline; any issuance of shares of our common stock in the future could have a dilutive effect on your investment; and, Iowa law and provisions in our charter documents may have the effect of preventing or hindering a change in control and adversely affecting the market price of our common stock.

We further caution you that other factors we have not identified may in the future prove to be important in affecting our business and results of operations. We ask you not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements because they speak only of our views as of the statement dates. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

**Item 3. <u>Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk</u>.**

The Company's exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily to our investment portfolio and floating rate long-term debt obligations. We place our investments with high-quality credit issuers and, by policy, limit the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer. Our first priority is to attempt to reduce the risk of principal loss. Consequently, we seek to preserve our invested funds by limiting default risk, market risk, and reinvestment risk. We attempt to mitigate default risk by investing in only high-quality credit securities that we believe to be low risk and by positioning our portfolio to respond appropriately to a significant reduction in a credit rating of any investment issuer or guarantor. The portfolio includes only marketable securities with active secondary or resale markets to ensure portfolio liquidity. We utilize an interest rate swap to manage exposure to fluctuations in variable interest rates. While the interest rate swap is not designated as a hedging instrument for accounting purposes, the Company does not enter into interest rate swap agreements for trading or speculative purposes. The impact of the interest rate swap was immaterial to the financial statements as of October 31, 2025 and for the period then ended. Based upon the outstanding balance of the Company's term loan facilities as of October 31, 2025, an immediate 100-basis-point move in interest rates would have an approximate annualized impact of $9.6 million on interest expense.

The Company also has exposure to market risks related to the volatility of fuel prices associated with non-store inventoried fuel (pipeline and terminal). The Company utilizes futures contracts to economically hedge the physical products while the bulk fuel is in storage at various terminals and pipelines, until such time the underlying gallons can be delivered to the store or wholesale customer. The Company does not speculate in trading financial instruments. All hedges must be matched against recorded physical transactions, inventoried fuel in a pipeline or at a terminal. Derivative contracts outstanding were immaterial to the financial statements as of October 31, 2025 and for the period then ended.

We do from time to time, participate in a forward buy of certain commodities. These contracts are not accounted for as derivatives as they meet the normal purchases exclusion under derivative accounting.

**Item 4**. **<u>Controls and Procedures</u>**.

**<u>Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures</u>**

As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 240.13a-15(e)). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company's current disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

**<u>Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting</u>**

We acquired Fikes Wholesale, owner of CEFCO Convenience Stores, and Group Petroleum Services (collectively "Fikes") on November 1, 2024. We will exclude Fikes' internal controls over financial reporting from the scope of management's annual assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's controls and procedures for the period May 1, 2025 through October 31, 2025. This exclusion is in accordance with the general guidance issued by the Staff of the SEC that an assessment of a recent business combination may be omitted from management's report on internal control over financial reporting in the first year of consolidation.

There have been no other changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended October 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

On, and effective as of, March 3, 2022, the Board authorized a share repurchase program, whereby the Company was authorized to repurchase its outstanding common stock from time-to-time, for an aggregate amount of up to $400 million, exclusive of fees, commissions or other costs (the "Repurchase Program"). The Repurchase Program has no set expiration date. The timing and number of repurchase transactions under the Repurchase Program depends on a variety of factors including, but not limited to, market conditions, corporate considerations, business opportunities, debt agreements, and regulatory requirements. The Repurchase Program can be suspended or discontinued at any time. During the second quarter, we repurchased and retired 61,535 shares of our common stock under our share repurchase program for a total of $31.2 million, excluding fees, commissions and other costs. As of October 31, 2025, $232.6 million remained available for future purchases under this share repurchase program.
