Allentown, PA August 5, 2026 – CrossAmerica Partners LP (NYSE: CAPL) (“CrossAmerica” or the “Partnership”), a leading wholesale fuels distributor, convenience store operator, and owner and lessor of real estate used in the retail distribution of motor fuels, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026.

 

"The Partnership continued its strong start to the year, building on our very strong first quarter with another quarter of significant growth in Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow,” said Maura Topper, CEO and President of CrossAmerica. “I'm proud of how our team continued to execute with discipline through a volatile operating environment. One key area of success was our merchandise business with continued growth in merchandise margin percentage reflecting the strength of our convenience store operations and programs. Combined with our continued focus on cost management, these results allowed us to again pay down our credit facility during the quarter, further strengthening our balance sheet and providing increased flexibility and investment opportunities for the remainder of this year and beyond.”

CrossAmerica reported increases in Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage for the second quarter of 2026 compared to the second quarter of 2025. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily driven by an increase in motor fuel margin per gallon in both the retail and wholesale segments, an increase in merchandise gross profit in the retail segment and an overall decline in operating expenses. The decline in Net Income was primarily driven by lower net gains in connection with CrossAmerica's ongoing real estate optimization efforts with $29.7 million in net gains for the second quarter of 2025 compared to $1.1 million in net gains for the second quarter of 2026.

 

The increase for the second quarter of 2026 in Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage was primarily driven by the increase in Adjusted EBITDA noted above in addition to a decrease in interest expense due to a lower average interest rate along with a lower average outstanding debt balance, partially offset by increases in sustaining capital expenditures and current income tax expense.

For the second quarter of 2026, the retail segment generated a 13% increase in gross profit compared to the second quarter of 2025, primarily due to increases in motor fuel, merchandise and other revenue gross profit compared to the prior year.

 

The motor fuel gross profit for the retail segment increased $7.7 million or 20%, attributable to a 33% increase in the margin per gallon for the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the same period in 2025. The increase in margin per gallon was primarily driven by differences in movements in crude oil prices within the two periods and overall market volatility. The margin per gallon increase was partially offset by a motor fuel volume decrease of 12% driven by a decline in same store retail segment volume of 11% as well as a decrease in the average retail site count due to CrossAmerica's ongoing portfolio optimization efforts.

For the second quarter of 2026, CrossAmerica’s merchandise gross profit increased 2% when compared to the second quarter of 2025, despite a 9% decline in average company operated store count. Same store merchandise sales excluding cigarettes increased 1% for the second quarter of 2026 when compared to the second quarter of 2025. Merchandise gross profit percentage increased from 28.2% for the second quarter of 2025 to 29.5% for the second quarter of 2026. Other revenues increased $0.8 million or 18% driven by higher income from skills games and fuel sold on a commission basis.

 

Operating expenses for the retail segment declined $2.1 million dollars or 4% with same store operating expenses also declining for the second quarter of 2026 when compared to the same period in 2025. In addition, the average retail segment site count decreased 7% relative to the prior year due to CrossAmerica's ongoing portfolio optimization efforts.

During the second quarter of 2026, CrossAmerica’s wholesale segment gross profit increased $2.2 million or 9% compared to the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by a 17% or $2.6 million increase in motor fuel gross profit, partially offset by a 2% decline in rent gross profit. The decrease in rent gross profit was primarily due to the sale of locations and conversions to retail operations as part of the Partnership’s portfolio optimization efforts, partially offset by an increase in rent gross profit as a result of the reassessment of the accounting for CrossAmerica's lease with Getty required by the amendment of this lease during the first quarter of 2026.

 

The increase in motor fuel gross profit for the second quarter of 2026 when compared to the second quarter of 2025 was driven by a 31% increase in fuel margin per gallon, partially offset by an 11% decline in wholesale volume distributed. The decline in volume was primarily due to a reduction in volume in the base business as well as the loss of independent dealer contracts. Operating expenses declined $0.8 million or 11% due to the portfolio optimization efforts noted above.

 

Real Estate Activity

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2026, CrossAmerica sold five sites for $2.7 million in proceeds, resulting in a net gain of $1.1 million. CrossAmerica maintained a supply relationship post sale with substantially all of the locations divested during the quarter.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2026, CrossAmerica had $671.6 million outstanding under its Credit Facility. As of July 31, 2026, after taking into consideration debt covenant restrictions, approximately $244 million was available for future borrowings under the Credit Facility. Leverage, as defined in the Credit Facility, was 3.57 times as of June 30, 2026, compared to 3.65 times as of June 30, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, CrossAmerica was in compliance with its financial covenants under the Credit Facility.

(a) The decrease in the company operated site count was primarily attributable to the sale of certain company operated sites in connection with CrossAmerica's real estate optimization effort.

(a) In addition, CrossAmerica distributed motor fuel to sub-wholesalers who distributed to additional sites.

(b) The increase in the independent dealer site count was primarily attributable to the sale of certain lessee dealer, company operated and commission agent sites but with continued fuel supply, partially offset by the net loss of independent dealer contracts.

(c) The decrease in the lessee dealer count was primarily attributable to the sale of certain lessee dealer sites in connection with CrossAmerica's real estate optimization effort (generally with continued fuel supply, thereby converting the site to an independent dealer site) as well as the conversion of certain lessee dealer sites to company operated and commission agent sites.

Supplemental Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

CrossAmerica uses the non-GAAP financial measures EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio. EBITDA represents net income (loss) before deducting interest expense, income taxes and depreciation, amortization and accretion (which includes certain impairment charges). Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted to exclude equity-based compensation expense, gains or losses on dispositions and lease terminations, net and certain discrete acquisition related costs, such as legal and other professional fees, separation benefit costs and certain other discrete non-cash items arising from purchase accounting. Distributable Cash Flow represents Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest expense, sustaining capital expenditures and current income tax expense. The Distribution Coverage Ratio is computed by dividing Distributable Cash Flow by distributions paid on common units.

 

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio are used as supplemental financial measures by management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors and lenders. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used to assess CrossAmerica’s financial performance without regard to financing methods, capital structure or income taxes and the ability to incur and service debt and to fund capital expenditures. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is used to assess the operating performance of the Partnership’s business on a consistent basis by excluding the impact of items which do not result directly from the wholesale distribution of motor fuel, the leasing of real property, or the day to day operations of CrossAmerica’s retail site activities. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio are also used to assess the ability to generate cash sufficient to make distributions to CrossAmerica’s unitholders.

 

CrossAmerica believes the presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio provides useful information to investors in assessing the financial condition and results of operations. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio should not be considered alternatives to net income or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income. Additionally, because EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio may be defined differently by other companies in the industry, CrossAmerica’s definitions may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.

 

The following table presents reconciliations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Distributable Cash Flow to net income (loss), the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, for each of the periods indicated (in thousands, except for Distribution Coverage Ratio):
