CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward-looking statements,” as that term is defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (“PSLRA”), Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements include statements about our expectations, beliefs or intentions regarding our product development efforts, business, financial condition, results of operations, strategies or prospects. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that these statements do not relate strictly to historical or current matters. Rather, forward-looking statements relate to anticipated or expected events, activities, trends or results as of the date they are made. Because forward-looking statements relate to matters that have not yet occurred, these statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from any future results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Many factors could cause our actual activities or results to differ materially from the activities and results anticipated in forward-looking statements. These factors include those described below and in “Item 1A-Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2022~~2023 and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and described from time to time in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). We do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements, except to the extent required by applicable law. We intend that all forward-looking statements be subject to the safe-harbor provisions of the PSLRA. These forward-looking statements are only predictions and reflect our views as of the date they are made with respect to future events and financial performance.

Risks and uncertainties, the occurrence of which could adversely affect our business, include the following:

•

changes in economic conditions and consumer confidence in the United States;

•

our ability to make acquisitions on economically acceptable terms;

•

our ability to successfully integrate acquired operations or otherwise realize the expected benefits from our acquisitions;

•

our ability to successfully implement our growth strategies;

•

labor, raw materials and building supply shortages and price fluctuations in the construction industry could delay or increase the costs of our store upgrade and remodel programs and our maintenance capital expenditures;

changes in the wholesale prices of motor fuel;

significant changes in the current consumption of, and related regulations and litigation related to, cigarettes and other tobacco products;

•

changes in the wholesale prices of motor fuel;

•

significant changes in demand for fuel-based modes of transportation;

•

the highly competitive fragmented industry in which we operate, characterized by ~~low~~many ~~entry~~similar ~~barriers~~competing inproducts ~~which~~and ~~we operate~~services;

•

negative events or developments associated with branded motor fuel suppliers;

•

we depend on several principal suppliers for our fuel purchases and ~~two~~one principal ~~suppliers~~supplier for merchandise;

•

a portion of our revenue is generated under fuel supply agreements with dealers that must be renegotiated or replaced periodically;

•

the retail sale, distribution, transportation and storage of motor fuels is subject to environmental protection and operational safety laws and regulations that may expose us or our customers to significant costs and liabilities;

•

business disruption and related risks resulting from global pandemics;

failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations;

•

the loss of key senior management personnel or the failure to recruit or retain qualified personnel;

•

unfavorable weather conditions;

•

we may be held liable for fraudulent credit card transactions;

payment-related risks that may result in higher operating costs or the inability to process payments;

•

significant disruptions of information technology systems, breaches of data security or compromised data;

•

evolving laws, regulations, standards, and contractual obligations related to data privacy and security regulations, and our actual or perceived failure to comply with such obligations;

•

our failure to adequately secure, maintain, and enforce our intellectual property rights and third-party claims of infringement upon their intellectual property rights;

•

Table of Contents

third-party claims of infringement upon their intellectual property rights;

our dependence on third-party transportation providers for the transportation of most of our motor fuel;

•

our operations present risks which may not be fully covered by insurance;

Table of Contents

•

our variable rate debt;

•

the agreements governing our indebtedness contain various restrictions and financial covenants;

•

the majority of our ~~principal~~common stock is held by a limited number of stockholders and management ~~control us,~~ and their interests may conflict with yours;

•

our corporate structure includes Israeli subsidiaries that may have adverse tax consequences and expose us to additional tax liabilities;

•

we may not be able to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting and we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or prevent fraud;

•

the market price and trading volume of our common stock may be volatile and could decline significantly; and

•

if securities or industry analysts do not publish research, publish inaccurate or unfavorable research, or cease publishing research about us or the convenience store industry; and

sales of a substantial number of shares of our common stock in the public market could cause the prices of our common stock to decline.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. General

ARKO Corp. (the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation whose common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“common stock”), and publicly-traded warrants are listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbols “ARKO” and “ARKOW,” respectively.

The Company’s operations are primarily performed by its wholly owned subsidiary, GPM Investments, LLC ~~(“GPM”)~~, a Delaware limited liability company (“GPM”). Formed in 2002, GPM is primarily engaged directly and through fully owned and controlled subsidiaries ~~(directly or indirectly)~~ in retail activity, which includes the operations of a chain of convenience stores, most of which include adjacent gas stations. ~~The~~GPM ~~Company~~ is also engaged in wholesale activity, which includes the supply of fuel to gas stations operated by third -parties, and, in fleet fueling, which includes the operation of proprietary and third-party cardlock locations (unstaffed fueling locations) and issuance of proprietary fuel cards that provide customers access to a nationwide network of fueling sites. As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024, GPM’s activity included the operation of 1,~~552~~540 retail convenience stores, the supply of fuel to 1,~~825~~816 gas stations operated by dealers and the operation of ~~295~~296 cardlock locations, ~~throughout~~in ~~more~~the ~~than~~District 30of ~~states~~Columbia and ~~the~~throughout ~~District~~more ofthan ~~Columbia~~30 states in the Mid-Atlantic, Midwestern, Northeastern, Southeastern and Southwestern United States (“U.S.”).

The Company has four reportable segments: retail, wholesale, fleet fueling, and GPMP. Refer to Note 1112 below for further information with respect to the segments.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements (“interim financial statements”) as of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024 and for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024 and ~~2022~~2023 are unaudited and have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and Regulation S-X set forth by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim reporting. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal and recurring adjustments except those otherwise described herein) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the accompanying interim financial statements. However, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Therefore, the interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of the Company included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, ~~2022~~2023 (the “annual financial statements”).

The same significant accounting policies, presentation and methods of computation have been followed in these interim financial statements as were applied in the preparation of the annual financial statements.

Accounting Periods

The Company’s fiscal periods end on the last day of the month, and its fiscal year ends on December 31. This results in the Company experiencing fluctuations in current assets and current liabilities due to purchasing and payment patterns which change based upon the day of the week. As a result, working capital can change from period to period not only due to changing business operations, but also due to a change in the day of the week on which ~~each~~a period ends. The Company earns a disproportionate amount of its annual operating income in the second and third quarters as a result of the climate and seasonal buying patterns of its customers. Inclement weather, especially in the Midwest and Northeast regions of the U.S. during the winter months, can negatively impact financial results.

Use of Estimates

In the preparation of interim condensed consolidated financial statements, management may 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 interim condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual

Table of Contents

results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include right-of-use assets and lease liabilities; impairment of goodwill, intangible, right-of-use and fixed assets; environmental assets and liabilities; deferred tax assets; and asset retirement obligations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all unrestricted highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents are maintained at several financial institutions, and in order to have sufficient working capital on hand, the Company maintains concentrations of cash inat several financial institutions in amounts that are above the FDIC standard deposit insurance limit of $250,000.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to the customers. This requires the Company to identify contractual performance obligations and determine whether revenue should be recognized at a single point in time or over time, based on when control of goods and services transfers to a customer. Control is transferred to the customer over time if the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company’s performance. If a performance obligation is not satisfied over time, the Company satisfies the performance obligation at a single point in time.

Revenue is recognized in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for goods or services.

When the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of goods or services to the customer, revenue is recognized against contract assets in the amount of consideration to which the Company is entitled. When the consideration amount received from the customer exceeds the amounts recognized as revenue, the Company recognizes a contract liability for the excess.

An asset is recognized related to the costs incurred to obtain a contract (e.g. sales commissions) if the costs are specifically identifiable to a contract, the costs will result in enhancing resources that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in the future and the costs are expected to be recovered. These capitalized costs are recorded as a part of other current assets and other non-current assets and are amortized on a systematic basis consistent with the pattern of transfer of the goods or services to which such costs relate. The Company expenses the costs to obtain a contract, as and when they are incurred, in cases where the expected amortization period is one year or less.

The Company evaluates if it is a principal or an agent in a transaction to determine whether revenue should be recorded on a gross or a net basis. In performing this analysis, the Company considers first whether it controls the goods before they are transferred to the customers and if it has the ability to direct the use of the goods or obtain benefits from them. The Company also considers the following indicators: (1) the primary obligor, (2) the latitude in establishing prices and selecting suppliers, and (3) the inventory risk borne by the Company before and after the goods have been transferred to the customer. When the Company acts as principal, revenue is recorded on a gross basis. When the Company acts as agent, revenue is recorded on a net basis.

Fuel revenue and fuel cost of revenue included fuel taxes of $~~311~~272.92 million, ~~$274.8 million, $883.4 million~~ and $~~750~~264.3 million for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024 and ~~2022~~2023, respectively.

Refer to Note 1112 for disclosure of the revenue disaggregated by segment and product line, as well as a description of the reportable segment operations.

3. ~~Acquisitions~~Limited Partnership

~~Transit~~As ~~Energy~~of ~~Group~~December 31, ~~LLC~~2023, GPM, directly and through certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries, held approximately 99.8% of the limited partnership interests in the Company’s subsidiary, GPM Petroleum LP (“GPMP”) and all of the rights in the general partner of GPMP. A non-controlling interest had been recorded for the interests owned in GPMP by the seller in the Company’s 2019 acquisition of 64 sites from a third-party (the “Riiser Seller”) and was classified in the consolidated statements of changes in equity as “Non-controlling interests.”

The purchase price for the TEG Acquisition was approximately $370 million, as adjusted in accordance with the terms of the TEG Purchase Agreement, plus the value of inventory at the closing, of which $50 million was deferred and payable in two annual payments of $25 million, which the Company may elect to pay in either cash or, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, shares of common stock (the “Installment Shares”), on the first and second anniversaries of the closing4. ~~Pursuant~~Transit toEnergy ~~the TEG Purchase Agreement~~Group, atLLC closing, ARKO and TEG entered into a registration rights agreement, pursuant to which ARKO agreed to prepare and file a registration statement with the SEC, registering the Installment Shares, if any, for resale by TEG.Acquisition

On March 26, 2024, the Company and TEG entered into a second amendment to the TEG Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement Amendment”), pursuant to which, in full satisfaction of all Installment Payments, (i) the Company repurchased the First Installment Shares from TEG for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $19.3 million in cash, or $5.66 per share, and (ii) the Company paid to TEG an additional amount in cash equal to approximately $17.2 million in satisfaction of the second Installment Payment, which would have otherwise been due on March 1, 2025. The $36.5 million was financed with the Capital One Line of Credit (refer to Note 5 below). The Purchase Agreement Amendment additionally terminated the registration rights agreement, terminated TEG’s indemnity obligations under the TEG Purchase Agreement and extended the transition services agreement entered into between the Company and TEG. As a result of this transaction, the Company recorded a net gain of approximately $6.4 million, out of which approximately $6.5 million was recorded as a component of interest and other financial income in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

The initial accounting treatment of the TEG Acquisition reflected in these interim financial statements is provisional as the Company has not yet finalized the initial accounting treatment of the business combination, and, in this regard, has not finalized the valuation of some of the assets and liabilities acquired and the goodwill resulting from the TEG Acquisition, mainly due to the limited period of time between the TEG Acquisition closing date and the date of these interim financial statements5. ~~Therefore,~~Debt ~~some of the financial information presented with respect to the TEG Acquisition in these interim financial statements remains subject to change.~~

The Company included identifiable tangible assets and identifiable liabilities at their respective fair values based on the information available to the Company’s management on the TEG Acquisition closing date, including, among other things, a preliminary valuation performed by external consultants for this purpose. The useful life of both the wholesale fuel supply contracts and the trade name was estimated at five years.

Table of Contents

As a result of the preliminary accounting treatment of the TEG Acquisition, the Company recorded goodwill of approximately $57.3 million, all of which was allocated to the GPMP segment attributable to the opportunity to add a significant amount of volume to the GPMP segment. None of the goodwill recognized is tax deductible for U.S. income tax purposes.

Acquisition-related costs amounting to approximately $0.4 million and $3.3 million have been excluded from the consideration transferred and have been recognized as an expense within other expenses, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. Approximately $0.3 million of acquisition-related costs were recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Results of operations for the TEG Acquisition for the period subsequent to the acquisition closing date were included in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. For the period from the TEG Acquisition closing date through September 30, 2023, the Company recognized $564.3 million in revenues and $2.3 million of net loss related to the TEG Acquisition. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized $247.2 million in revenues and $0.4 million of net income related to the TEG Acquisition.

WTG Fuels Holdings, LLC

On June 6, 2023, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries completed the acquisition of certain assets from WTG Fuels Holdings, LLC and certain other sellers party thereto (collectively, “WTG”) pursuant to an asset purchase agreement entered on December 6, 2022, including (i) 24 company-operated Uncle’s convenience stores located across Western Texas, and (ii) 68 proprietary GASCARD-branded cardlock sites and 43 private cardlock sites for fleet fueling operations located in Western Texas and Southeastern New Mexico (the “WTG Acquisition”).

The purchase price for the WTG Acquisition was approximately $140.0 million, plus the value of inventory at the closing. The Company paid approximately $29.9 million of the purchase price including the value of inventory and other closing adjustments, of which $19.2 million was financed with the Capital One Line of Credit (as defined in Note 4 below). Oak Street, under the Program Agreement, paid the balance of the purchase price for fee simple ownership in 33 properties. At the closing, pursuant to the Program Agreement, the Company entered into master leases with Oak Street for the sites Oak Street acquired in the transaction under customary lease terms. For accounting purposes, the transaction with Oak Street was treated as a sale-leaseback. Because the sale-leaseback was off-market, a financial liability of $28.8 million was recorded, resulting in interest expense recognized over the lease term. Additionally, right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities of approximately $49.0 million were recorded in connection with the operating lease, after reducing for accounting purposes from the contractual lease payments the amount attributable to the repayment of the additional financing.

The details of the WTG Acquisition were as follows:

The initial accounting treatment of the WTG Acquisition reflected in these interim financial statements is provisional as the Company has not yet finalized the initial accounting treatment of the business combination, and, in this regard, has not finalized the valuation of some of the assets and liabilities acquired and the goodwill resulting from the WTG Acquisition, mainly due to the limited period of time between the WTG Acquisition closing date and the date of these interim financial statements. Therefore, some of the financial information presented with respect to the WTG Acquisition in these interim financial statements remains subject to change.

The Company included identifiable tangible assets and identifiable liabilities at their respective fair values based on the information available to the Company’s management on the WTG Acquisition closing date, including, among other things, a preliminary valuation performed by management. The useful life of the contracts related to the third-party cardlock sites, the customer relationships related to the proprietary cardlock sites and the proprietary fuel cards, the wholesale fuel supply contracts and the trade name was each estimated at five years.

The Company’s preliminary accounting treatment of the WTG Acquisition resulted in no goodwill being recorded.

Acquisition-related costs amounting to approximately $0.1 million and $2.2 million have been excluded from the consideration transferred and have been recognized as an expense within other expenses, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. No material acquisition-related costs were recognized for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Results of operations for the WTG Acquisition for the period subsequent to the acquisition closing date were included in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. For the period from the WTG Acquisition closing date through September 30, 2023, the Company recognized $68.9 million in revenues and $0.6 million of net income related to the WTG Acquisition. For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recognized $54.0 million in revenues and $0.4 million of net income related to the WTG Acquisition.

Speedy Acquisition

On August 15, 2023, the Company acquired from a third party seven company-operated convenience stores located in Arkansas and Oklahoma (the “Speedy Acquisition”). Prior to the acquisition, the Company had supplied fuel to these sites, which had been

operated by an independent dealer. The consideration at closing was approximately $13.7 million including cash and inventory in the stores on the closing date, of which approximately $10.4 million was paid by Oak Street under the Program Agreement for fee simple ownership in three of the properties. At the closing, pursuant to the Program Agreement, the Company entered into a master lease with Oak Street for the sites Oak Street acquired under customary lease terms. For accounting purposes, the transaction with Oak Street was treated as a sale-leaseback and the Company recorded right of use assets and operating lease liabilities of approximately $8.8 million in connection therewith. As of the closing, the Company leases the remaining four sites from the seller and Oak is expected to purchase the fee simple ownership in these sites from the seller, for approximately $10.3 million, within twenty months from the closing of the Speedy Acquisition, and then lease these sites to the Company.

Pride Convenience Holdings, LLC

On December 6, 2022, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding membership interests in Pride Convenience Holdings, LLC, which operated at closing 31 convenience stores and gas stations in Connecticut and Massachusetts (the “Pride Acquisition”). In the second quarter of 2023, the Company updated the initial accounting treatment of the Pride Acquisition, including the valuation of some of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and the goodwill resulting from the acquisition. As a result, the Company primarily reduced property and equipment by approximately $4.7 million, increased accounts payable and other liabilities by a net $1.0 million, and increased the deferred tax asset by approximately $1.0 million. The adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed resulted in an increase in goodwill of approximately $3.1 million, of which $0.4 million was allocated to the GPMP segment and the remainder was allocated to the retail segment attributable to the opportunities to expand into new geographic locations. These adjustments resulted in a reduction in depreciation and amortization expenses recorded, approximately $0.2 million that related to amounts recorded for the year ended December 31, 2022 and approximately $0.6 million that related to the three months ended March 31, 2023.

6. Financial Derivative Instruments

The Company makes limited use of derivative instruments (futures contracts) to manage certain risks related to diesel fuel prices. The Company does not hold any derivatives for speculative purposes, and it does not use derivatives with leveraged or complex features. The Company currently uses derivative instruments that are traded primarily over national exchanges such as the New York Mercantile Exchange (“NYMEX”). For accounting purposes, the Company has designated its derivative contracts as fair value hedges of firm commitments.

As of ~~September~~March 3031, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had fuel futures contracts ~~in place~~ to hedge approximately 1.83 million gallons and 1.2 million gallons, respectively, of diesel fuel for which the Company had a firm commitment to purchase. As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024 and December 31, ~~2022~~2023, the Company had an asset ~~derivatives~~derivative with a fair ~~values~~value of approximately $0.051 million and $0.51 million, respectively, recorded in other current assets and a firm ~~commitments~~commitment with a fair ~~values~~value of approximately $0.051 million and $0.51 million, respectively, recorded in other current liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024 and December 31, ~~2022~~2023, there was $03.050 ~~million~~thousand and $0~~.5 million~~, respectively, of cash collateral provided to counterparties that was classified as restricted cash on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. All cash flows associated with purchasing and selling fuel derivative instruments are classified as other operating activities, net ~~cash flows~~ in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.

78. Equity

The Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) declared, and the Company paid, dividends of $0.03 per share of common stock on ~~each of~~ March 21, ~~2023~~2024, ~~June 1, 2023 and September 1, 2023,~~ totaling approximately $103.86 million ~~in the nine months ended September 30, 2023~~. The amount and timing of dividends payable on the common stock are within the sole discretion of the Board, which will evaluate dividend payments within the context of the Company’s overall capital allocation strategy on an ongoing basis, giving consideration to its current and ~~forecast~~forecasted earnings, financial condition, cash requirements and other factors. As a result of the aggregate amount of dividends paid on the common stock through ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024, the conversion price of the Company’s Series A convertible preferred stock has been adjusted from $12.00 to $11.8276 per share, as were the threshold share prices in the Deferred Shares agreement (as defined in Note 10). The Board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.03 per share of common stock, to be paid on December 1, 2023 to stockholders of record as of November 17, 2023.

In February 2022, the Board authorized a share repurchase program for up to an aggregate of $50 million of outstanding shares of common stock and in May 2023, the Board increased the size of the share repurchase program to $100.0 million. The share repurchase program does not have an expiration date. In the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company repurchased approximately 1.5 million and 3.1 million shares of common stock, respectively, under the repurchase program for approximately $11.6 million and $23.5 million, or an average share price of $7.53 and $7.55, respectively.14

8. Share-Based Compensation

The Compensation Committee of the Board has approved the grant of non-qualified stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and shares to certain employees, non-employees and members of the Board under the ARKO Corp. 2020 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”).

9. Share-Based Compensation

The Compensation Committee of the Board has approved the grant of non-qualified stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and shares of common stock to certain employees, non-employees and members of the Board under the ARKO Corp. 2020 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”). Stock options granted under the Plan expire no later than ten years from the date of grant and the exercise price may not be less than the fair market value of the underlying shares on the date of grant. Vesting periods are assigned to stock options and RSUs on a grant-by-grant basis at the discretion of the Board. The Company issues new shares of common stock upon exercise of stock options and vesting of RSUs.

Additionally, a non-employee director may receive RSUs in lieu of up to 100% of his or her cash fees, which are vested immediately and which RSUs will be settled in common stock upon the director’s departure from the Board or an earlier change in control of the Company.

Stock Options

~~The~~During ~~following~~the ~~table~~three ~~summarizes~~months ~~share~~ended March 31, 2024, 447 thousand stock options vested. There was no other activity related to stock options: during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

	Stock Options		Weighted Average Exercise Price		Weighted Average Fair Value		Remaining Average Contractual Term (Years)		Aggregate Intrinsic Value
	(in thousands)								(in thousands)
Options Outstanding, December 31, 2022		897	$	9.24				9.0	$	77
Granted		409		8.58		3.27
Options Outstanding, September 30, 2023		1,306	$	9.03				8.6	$	—

As of March 31, 2024, total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options was approximately $1.3 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.6 years.

The aggregate intrinsic value is the difference between the exercise price and the closing price of the Company’s common stock on September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2023, 352 thousand stock options vested.

As of September 30, 2023, total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options was approximately $1.9 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.9 years.

The fair value of each stock option award is estimated by management on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following table summarizes the assumptions utilized in the valuation of the stock option awards granted in the nine months ended September 30, 2023:

Expected dividend rate	1.4	%
Expected stock price volatility	28.8	%
Risk-free interest rate	4.0	%
Expected term of options (years)	10.0

The expected stock price volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock price plus the Company’s peer group’s stock price for the period prior to the Company’s listing on Nasdaq. The volatilities are estimated for a period of time equal to the expected term of the related option. The risk-free interest rate is based on the implied yield of U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with an equivalent remaining term. The expected term of the options represents the estimated period of time until exercise and is determined by considering the contractual terms, vesting schedule and expectations of future employee behavior.

Restricted Stock Units

The following table summarizes share activity related to RSUs:

19The fair value of RSUs released during the three months ended March 31, 2024 was approximately $11.0 million.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company granted 1,505,244 performance-based RSUs (“PSUs”), which, subject to achieving certain performance criteria, could result in the issuance of up to 2,257,866 shares of common stock (i.e., 150% of the number of PSUs granted). The PSUs were awarded to certain members of senior management and cliff vest at the end of a three-year period, subject to the achievement of specific performance criteria measured over such period. The number of PSUs which will ultimately vest is contingent upon the recipient continuing to be in the continuous service of the Company and related entities through the last day of the performance period and that the Compensation Committee of the Board determines the performance criteria has been met and certifies the extent to which they have been met. The Company assesses the probability of achieving the performance criteria on a quarterly basis. In the first quarter of 2024, the Compensation Committee of the Board approved the performance criteria

Given the Company’s strong performance in 2022, in the first quarter of 2023, the Compensation Committee of the Board approved the adjustment of the performance criteria for 2022 such that the percentage of PSUs that vest with respect to the target amount for 2022 would be 125% instead of 100% and would be applied to all PSUs granted as part of the 2021 and 2022 long-term incentives. As a result, the number of PSUs was adjusted for the probability of achieving these metrics, resulting in additional expense of $0.1 million being recorded in the first quarter of 2023, based on the fair value at the adjustment approval date. For PSUs with market conditions, the Company recognizes the fair value expense ratably over the performance and vesting period.

As of September 30, 2023, total unrecognized compensation cost related to RSUs and PSUs was approximately $19.3 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.8 years.

Share-Based Compensation Cost

Total share-based compensation cost recorded ~~collectively~~ for employees, non-employees and members of the Board for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024 and ~~2022~~2023 was $~~4.6 million, $~~3.13 million, ~~$13.2 million~~ and $94.01 million, respectively, and included in general and administrative expenses on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

11. Fair Value Measurements and Financial Instruments

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investments, trade receivables, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximated their carrying values as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 primarily due to the short-term maturity of these instruments. On October 21, 2021, the Company completed a private offering of $450 million aggregate principal amount of 5.125% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “Senior Notes”). Based on market trades of the Senior Notes close to March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (Level 1 fair value measurement), the fair value of the Senior Notes was estimated at approximately $373.9 million and $391.8 million, respectively, compared to a gross carrying value of $450 million at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The fair values of the other long-term debt approximated their respective carrying values as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 due to the frequency with which interest rates are reset based on changes in prevailing interest rates. The fair value of fuel futures contracts was determined using NYMEX quoted values.

The Company entered into an agreement with Ares Capital Corporation (“Ares”) and certain of its affiliates (the “Ares Put Option”), which guaranteed Ares a value of approximately $27.3 million (including all dividend payments received by Ares) at the end of February 2023 for the shares of common stock that the Company issued in consideration for its acquisition in December 2020 of equity in GPM (the “Ares Shares”). The Company and Ares agreed that in lieu of the Company issuing to Ares additional shares of common stock in accordance with the Ares Put Option or purchasing the Ares Shares, Ares would retain the Ares Shares, and the Company would pay approximately $9.8 million in cash to Ares in full satisfaction of the Company’s obligations related to the Ares Put Option. The Company made this payment on April 14, 2023, and the Ares Put Option terminated. The Ares Put Option had been measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period and amounted to $8.6 million as of December 31, 2022.

Approximately $0, $(2.4) million, $1.2 million and $(1.9) million were recorded as components of interest and other financial (income) expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations for the change in the fair value of the Ares Put Option for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

11. Segment Reporting

The reportable segments were determined based on information reviewed by the chief operating decision maker for operational decision-making purposes and the segment information is prepared on the same basis that the Company’s chief operating decision maker reviews such financial information. The Company’s reportable segments are retail, wholesale, fleet fueling and GPMP. The Company defines segment earnings as operating income.

The retail segment includes the operation of a chain of retail stores, which includes convenience stores selling fuel products and other merchandise to retail customers. At its Company operated convenience stores, the Company owns the merchandise and fuel inventory and employs personnel to manage the store.

The wholesale segment supplies fuel to dealers, sub-wholesalers and bulk and spot purchasers, on either a cost plus or consignment basis. For consignment arrangements, the Company retains ownership of the fuel inventory at the site, is responsible for the pricing of the fuel to the end consumer, and shares the gross profit with the dealers.

The fleet fueling segment includes the operation of proprietary and third-party cardlock locations (unstaffed fueling locations), and commissions from the sales of fuel using proprietary fuel cards that provide customers access to a nationwide network of fueling sites.

The GPMP segment includes GPMP and ~~primarily~~ includes its sale and supply of fuel to ~~GPM and its subsidiaries related to~~ substantially all of ~~its~~GPM’s sites that sell fuel in the retail and wholesale segments, at GPMP’s cost of fuel (including taxes and transportation) plus a fixed margin (currently 5.0 cents per gallon), and charges a fixed fee primarily to sites in the fleet fueling segment ~~and certain Company sites~~ which are not supplied by GPMP (currently 5.0 cents per gallon sold). GPMP also supplies fuel to a ~~small~~limited number of dealers and bulk ~~and spot~~ purchasers.

The “All Other” segment includes the results of non-reportable segments which do not meet both quantitative and qualitative criteria as defined under ASC 280, Segment Reporting. ~~The Company revised the composition of the “All Other” segment in the third quarter of 2022 in conjunction with the closing of the Quarles Acquisition.~~

The majority of general and administrative expenses, depreciation and amortization, net other expenses, net interest and other financial expenses, income taxes and minor other income items including intercompany operating leases are not allocated to the segments.

Table of Contents

With the exception of goodwill, assets and liabilities relevant to the reportable segments are not assigned to any particular segment, but rather, managed at the consolidated level. All reportable segment revenues were generated from sites within the U.S. and substantially all of the Company’s assets were within the U.S.

Inter-segment transactions primarily included the distribution of fuel by GPMP to ~~GPM and~~ substantially all of ~~its~~GPM’s sites that sell fuel (both in the retail and wholesale segments) and charges by GPMP primarily to sites that sell fuel in the fleet fueling segment ~~and certain Company sites~~ which are not supplied by GPMP. The effect of these inter-segment transactions was eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

1213. Commitments and Contingencies

Environmental Liabilities and Contingencies

The Company is subject to certain federal and state environmental laws and regulations associated with sites at which it stores and sells fuel and other fuel products, as well as at owned and leased locations leased or subleased to dealers. As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024 and December 31, ~~2022~~2023, environmental obligations totaled $1412.17 million and $1213.14 million, respectively. These amounts were recorded as other current and non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Environmental reserves have been established on an undiscounted basis based upon internal and external estimates in regard to each site. It is reasonably possible that these amounts will be adjusted in the future due to changes in estimates of environmental remediation costs, the timing of the payments or changes in federal and/or state environmental regulations.

24The Company maintains certain environmental insurance policies and participates in various state underground storage tank funds that entitle it to be reimbursed for environmental loss mitigation. Estimated amounts that will be recovered from its insurance policies and various state funds for the exposures totaled $7.1 million and $7.5 million as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and were recorded as other current and non-current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The Company maintains certain environmental insurance policies and participates in various state underground storage tank funds that entitle it to be reimbursed for environmental loss mitigation. Estimated amounts that will be recovered from its insurance policies and various state funds for the exposures totaled $7.6 million and $4.9 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and were recorded as other current and non-current assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Asset Retirement Obligation

As part of the fuel operations at its ~~operated~~retail convenience stores, at most of the other owned and leased locations leased to dealers, certain other dealer locations and proprietary cardlock locations, there are aboveground and underground storage tanks for which the Company is responsible. The future cost to remove a storage tank is recognized over the estimated remaining useful life of the storage tank or the termination of the applicable lease. A liability for the fair value of an asset retirement obligation with a corresponding increase to the carrying value of the related long-lived asset is recorded at the time a storage tank is installed. The estimated liability is based upon historical experience in removing storage tanks, estimated tank useful lives, external estimates as to the cost to remove the tanks in the future and current and anticipated federal and state regulatory requirements governing the removal of tanks, and discounted. The Company has recorded an asset retirement obligation of $8185.07 million and $6585.34 million at ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024 and December 31, ~~2022~~2023, respectively. The current portion of the asset retirement obligation is included in other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

~~Program Agreement~~19

OnTable ~~May 2, 2023, GPM, together with Oak Street, entered into a third amendment to the Program Agreement, which, among other things, (i) extended the term~~ of the Program Agreement and the exclusivity period thereunder through September 30, 2024 and (ii) provides for up to $1.5 billion of capacity under the Program Agreement from the date of the third amendment through September 30, 2024, not including the funding for the WTG Acquisition.Contents

Legal Matters

The Company is a party to various legal actions, as both plaintiff and defendant, in the ordinary course of business. The Company’s management believes, based on estimations with support from legal counsel for these matters, that these legal actions are routine in nature and incidental to the operation of the Company’s business and that it is not reasonably possible that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

1314. Related Party Transactions

There have been no material changes to the description of related party transactions as set forth in the annual financial statements.

2515. Subsequent Events

SpeedyQ Acquisition

On April 9, 2024, the Company acquired certain assets from a third-party, including 21 SpeedyQ Markets convenience stores and eight additional landbank sites located in Michigan, pursuant to a purchase agreement entered into on November 21, 2023 (the “Purchase Agreement”). The consideration at closing was approximately $52.7 million as adjusted in accordance with terms of the Purchase Agreement, plus the value of cash and inventory in the stores on the closing date, of which $6.0 million was financed with the Capital One Line of Credit and approximately $45.0 million was paid for fee simple ownership in 19 of the properties by an affiliate of Oak Street Real Estate Capital Net Lease Property Fund, LP (including its affiliates, “Oak Street”) under the standby real estate purchase, designation and lease program agreement (the “Program Agreement”) (as further described in Note 8 to the annual financial statements). At the closing, pursuant to the Program Agreement, the Company entered into a master lease with Oak Street for the sites Oak Street acquired under customary lease terms. The Company leases one site from the seller, for which the seller received a put right to require the Company to purchase the site and the Company received a call right to require the seller to sell the site, both for a purchase price of $7.0 million, subject to terms set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

Retail Segment

~~The~~Our retail segment includes the operation of a chain of retail stores, which includes convenience stores selling fuel products and other merchandise to retail customers. At our convenience stores, we own the merchandise and fuel inventory and employ personnel to manage the store.

Wholesale Segment

~~The~~Our wholesale segment supplies fuel to dealers, on either a ~~cost~~consignment ~~plus~~ or ~~consignment~~cost plus basis. For consignment arrangements, we retain ownership of the fuel inventory at the site, are responsible for the pricing of the fuel to the end consumer and share a portion of the gross profit earned from the sale of fuel by the consignment dealers. For cost plus arrangements, we sell fuel to dealers and bulk and spot purchasers on a fixed-fee basis. The sales price to the dealer is determined according to the terms of the relevant agreement with the dealer, which typically reflects our total fuel costs plus the cost of transportation and a margin, with us generally retaining the prompt pay discounts and rebates.

Fleet Fueling Segment

~~The~~Our fleet fueling segment includes the operation of proprietary and third-party cardlock locations (unstaffed fueling locations), and issuance of proprietary fuel cards that provide customers access to a nationwide network of fueling sites.

GPMP Segment

In recent years, the convenience store industry has focused on increasing and improving in-store foodservice offerings, including fresh foods, quick service restaurants orand proprietary food offerings. We believe consumers may be more likely to patronize convenience stores that include ~~such~~ new and improved food offerings, which may also lead to increased inside merchandise sales or fuel sales ~~for such stores~~. Our current foodservice offering, which varies by store, primarily consists of hot and fresh grab-n-go foods, deli, fried chicken, bakery, pizza, roller grill items and other prepared foods. We have historically relied upon a limited number of franchised quick service restaurants and in-store delis to drive customer traffic ~~rather than other types of foodservice offerings~~. As a result, we believe that our under-penetration of foodservice presents an opportunity to expand foodservice offerings and margin in response to changing consumer behavior. In ~~October 2023, we expanded our leadership team and named Richard Guidry in~~ the ~~newly~~first ~~created~~quarter ~~role~~ of ~~Senior Vice President of Food Service. This expansion tracks our commitment to growing our food service offering. In addition~~2024, we ~~believe~~launched ~~that~~an ~~continued~~extensive ~~investment in~~ new ~~technology~~pizza ~~platforms and applications to adapt to evolving consumer eating preferences~~program, ~~including~~as ~~contactless~~described ~~checkout,~~above ~~order~~under ~~ahead service, and delivery, will further drive growth in profitability~~“Overview.”

Our results of operation are significantly impacted by the retail fuel margins we earn on gallons sold. These fuel margins can change rapidly asbecause they are influenced by many factors including: the ~~price~~wholesale cost of ~~refined products~~fuel; interruptions in supply caused by severe weather; supply chain disruptions; refinery mechanical failures; and competition in the local markets in which we operate.

The cost of our main products, gasoline and diesel fuel, is greatly impacted by the wholesale cost of fuel in the United States. We attempt to pass on wholesale fuel cost changes ~~through~~ to our customers through retail price changes; however, we are not always able to do so. Competitive conditions primarily affect the timing of any related increase or decrease in retail prices. As a result, we tend to experience lower fuel margins when the cost of fuel is increasing gradually over a longer period and higher fuel margins when the cost of fuel is declining or more volatile over a shorter period of time. Depending on future market and geopolitical conditions, the supply of fuel, including diesel fuel in particular, may become constrained. Accordingly, we maintain terminal storage of diesel fuel for short-term supply needs for our fleet fueling sites.

28Additionally, the U.S. economy continues to endure price inflation and the effect of higher prevailing interest rates, which began in 2022 and which has increased merchandise costs and reduced consumer purchasing power. We have mitigated a portion of these higher costs with retail price increases. The persistence of, or increase in, inflation or high interest rates could negatively impact the demand for our products and services, including due to consumers reducing travel, which could reduce sales volumes. Additionally, because of current labor market conditions and the prevailing wage rates in the markets in which we operate, we have increased wages, which has increased our costs associated with recruiting and retaining qualified personnel.

We also operate in a highly competitive retail convenience market that includes businesses with operations and services that are similar to those that we provide. We believe that convenience stores managed by individual operators who offer branded or non-branded fuel are also significant competitors in the local markets in which we operate. Often, operators of both chains and individual stores compete by selling unbranded fuel at lower retail prices relative to the market. The convenience store industry is also experiencing competition from other retail sectors including grocery stores, large warehouse retail stores, dollar stores and pharmacies.

We believe that we have a significant opportunity to increase our sales and profitability by continuing to execute on our organic and inorganic strategies, which principally seek to improve the performance of current stores through enhanced offerings to meet our customers’ needs, and growing our store base in existing and contiguous markets through acquisitions.

Table of Contents

the cost of fuel is declining or more volatile over a shorter period of time. For the year ended December 31, 2022, we experienced historically high fuel margins as a result of the volatile market for gasoline and diesel fuel. In particular, in the first quarter of 2022, the war in Ukraine significantly affected market conditions and resulted in substantially higher fuel margins. Depending on future market and geopolitical conditions, the supply of fuel, including diesel fuel in particular, may become constrained. As such, we maintain terminal storage of diesel fuel for short-term supply needs for our fleet fueling sites.

Additionally, throughout 2022 and the first three quarters of 2023, the U.S. economy continued to experience inflationary pressures, which has increased merchandise cost and reduced consumer purchasing power. We have mitigated a portion of these higher costs with retail price increases. If this trend continues or increases, it could negatively impact demand for our products and services, as well as seasonal travel patterns, which could reduce future sales volumes. Additionally, because of current labor market conditions and the prevailing wage rates in the markets in which we operate, we have voluntarily increased wages, which has increased our costs associated with recruiting and retaining qualified personnel, and may continue to do so in the future.

We also operate in a highly competitive retail convenience market that includes businesses with operations and services that are similar to those that we provide. We face significant competition from other large chain operators. In particular, large convenience store chains have increased their number of locations and remodeled their existing locations in recent years, enhancing their competitive position. We believe that convenience stores managed by individual operators who offer branded or non-branded fuel are also significant competitors in the market. The convenience store industry is also experiencing competition from other retail sectors including grocery stores, large warehouse retail stores, dollar stores and pharmacies.

We believe that we have a significant opportunity to increase our sales and profitability by continuing to execute on our organic and inorganic strategies, improving the performance of current stores through enhanced offerings to meet our customers needs, and growing our store base in existing and contiguous markets through acquisitions.

The 2023 Acquisitions and the 2022 Acquisitions contributed to the improvement in our results of operations for the third quarter of 2023, as compared to the third quarter of 2022 which was partially offset by less fuel contribution on a same store basis, primarily due to market conditions in the third quarter of 2022. Store operating expenses increased in the third quarter of 2023 as compared to the third quarter of 2022, primarily as a result of expenses associated with the 2023 Acquisitions and the 2022 Acquisitions. General and administrative expenses also increased in the third quarter of 2023 as compared to the third quarter of 2022, primarily as a result of expenses associated with the 2023 Acquisitions and the 2022 Acquisitions, wage increases, and an increase in share-based compensation expense.

Seasonality

Our business is seasonal, and our operating income in the second and third quarters has historically been significantly greater than in the first and fourth quarters as a result of the generally ~~improved~~favorable climate and seasonal buying patterns of our customers. Inclement weather, especially in the Midwest and Northeast regions of the U.S. during the winter months, can negatively impact our financial results.

Results of Operations for the three ~~and nine~~ months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024 and ~~2022~~2023

The period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations contained in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation have been prepared using our condensed consolidated interim financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with such condensed interim consolidated financial statements and related notes. All figures for fuel contribution and fuel margin per gallon exclude the estimated fixed margin or fixed fee paid to GPMP for the cost of fuel (intercompany charges by GPMP).

~~Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 versus Three Months Ended September 30, 2022~~ 24

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, fuel revenue increased by $106.8 million, or 5.4%, compared to the third quarter of 2022. The increase in fuel revenue was primarily attributable to incremental gallons sold related to the 2023 Acquisitions and the 2022 Acquisitions, which was partially offset by a decrease in the average price of fuel compared to the third quarter of 2022 and fewer gallons sold at same stores in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, other revenue increased by $5.0 million, or 20.6%, compared to the third quarter of 2022, primarily due to additional revenue from the 2023 Acquisitions, the 2022 Acquisitions and greater lottery commissions.

Merchandise costs increased $38.8 million, or 12.6%, compared to the third quarter of 2022, primarily due to increased costs related to the 2023 Acquisitions and the Pride Acquisition, offset by a decrease in merchandise costs from underperforming retail stores that were closed or converted to dealers.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 versus Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022

Retail Revenues

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, fuel revenue decreased by $55.6 million, or 1.9%, compared to the first three quarters of 2022. The decrease in fuel revenue was attributable to a $0.49 per gallon decrease in the average retail price of fuel in the first three quarters of 2023 as compared to the first three quarters of 2022, primarily due to market factors, as well as a decrease in gallons sold at same stores. For the first three quarters of 2023, gallons at same stores decreased approximately 4.5%, or 33.7 million gallons. Offsetting these decreases, the 2023 Acquisitions and the Pride Acquisition contributed 134.3 million gallons sold, or $479.7 million in fuel revenue. Underperforming retail stores, which were closed or converted to dealers over the last 12 months in order to optimize profitability, also negatively impacted gallons sold during the first three quarters of 2023.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, merchandise revenue increased by $146.7 million, or 11.8%, compared to the first three quarters of 2022. The 2023 Acquisitions and the Pride Acquisition contributed approximately $151.2 million of merchandise revenue. Same store merchandise sales increased $16.9 million, or 1.4%, for the first three quarters of 2023 compared to the first three quarters of 2022. Same store merchandise sales increased primarily due to higher revenue from the Company’s six core destination categories, other tobacco products and franchises as a result of marketing initiatives, including expanded category assortments, new franchise food offerings and investments in coolers and freezers, which was partially offset by lower revenue from cigarettes. In addition, there was a decrease in merchandise revenue from underperforming retail stores that were closed or converted to dealers.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, other revenues, net increased by $7.7 million, or 15.4%, compared to the first three quarters of 2022, primarily related to additional income from the 2023 Acquisitions, the Pride Acquisition and greater lottery commissions.

Retail Operating Income

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, fuel contribution increased compared to the same period in 2022. Incremental fuel profit from the 2023 Acquisitions and the Pride Acquisition of approximately $51.4 million (excluding intercompany charges by GPMP) was partially offset by a decrease in same store fuel contribution of $32.5 million (excluding intercompany charges by GPMP). Fuel margin per gallon at same stores for the first three quarters of 2023 decreased to 38.7 cents per gallon from 41.4 cents per gallon for the first three quarters of 2022 primarily due to historically high fuel margins in 2022 principally as a result of the volatile market for gasoline and diesel fuel, with the first quarter of 2022 particularly impacted by the war in Ukraine, which significantly affected market conditions and resulted in substantially higher fuel margins. A decrease in fuel profit related to underperforming retail stores that were closed or converted to dealers also partially offset the increase in fuel profit compared to the first three quarters of 2022.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, merchandise contribution increased $59.9 million, or 15.8%, compared to the same period in 2022, and merchandise margin increased to 31.5% as compared to 30.4% in the prior period. The increase was due to $48.8 million in merchandise contribution from the 2023 Acquisitions and the Pride Acquisition and an increase in merchandise contribution at same stores of $15.9 million. Merchandise contribution at same stores increased in the first three quarters of 2023 primarily due to higher contribution from the Company’s six core destination categories and franchises. Merchandise margin at same stores was 31.5% in the first three quarters of 2023 compared to 30.6% in the first three quarters of 2022.

Table of Contents

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, store operating expenses increased $78.6 million, or 15.7%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022 primarily due to $79.2 million of expenses related to the 2023 Acquisitions and the Pride Acquisition and an increase of $7.5 million in expenses at same stores, including approximately $10.3 million or 5.2%, of higher personnel costs. The increase in store operating expenses was partially offset by underperforming retail stores that were closed or converted to dealers.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, fuel revenue decreased by $181.7 million, or 7.2%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Wholesale revenues were negatively impacted by a decrease in the average price of fuel in the first three quarters of 2023 as compared to the first three quarters of 2022, which was partially offset by a 7.4% increase in gallons sold. Of total gallons sold, the 2023 Acquisitions and the Quarles Acquisition contributed approximately 90.9 million incremental gallons, which were offset by lower volumes at legacy wholesale sites.

Wholesale Operating Income

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, fuel contribution decreased approximately $4.5 million (excluding intercompany charges by GPMP). Approximately $12.3 million of total fuel contribution increase was attributable to the 2023 Acquisitions and the Quarles Acquisition. At fuel supply locations, fuel contribution decreased by $2.8 million (excluding intercompany charges by GPMP), and fuel margin per gallon decreased for the first three quarters of 2023 as compared to the first three quarters of 2022, primarily due to decreased prompt pay discounts related to lower fuel costs and lower volumes at legacy wholesale sites, which was partially offset by the incremental contribution from the 2023 Acquisitions and the Quarles Acquisition. At consignment agent locations, fuel contribution decreased $1.7 million (excluding intercompany charges by GPMP) and fuel margin per gallon also decreased for the first three quarters of 2023 as compared to the first three quarters of 2022, primarily due to lower rack-to-retail margins and decreased prompt pay discounts related to lower fuel costs, which was partially offset by the incremental contribution from the 2023 Acquisitions and the Quarles Acquisition.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, store operating expenses decreased $2.1 million compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Use of Non-GAAP Measures

We disclose certain measures on a “same store basis,” which is a non-GAAP measure. Information disclosed on a “same store basis” excludes the results of any store that is not a “same store” for the applicable period. A store is considered a same store beginning in the first quarter in which the store had a full quarter of activity in the prior year. We believe that this information provides greater comparability regarding our ongoing operating performance. Neither this measure nor those described below should be considered an alternative to measurements presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”).

We define EBITDA as net income before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA further adjusts EBITDA by excluding the gain or loss on disposal of assets, impairment charges, acquisition costs, other non-cash items, and other unusual or non-recurring charges. ~~Each~~Both of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA isare a non-GAAP financial ~~measure~~measures.

We use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for operational and financial decision-making and believe these measures are useful in evaluating our performance because they eliminate certain items that we do not consider indicators of our operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also used by many of our investors, securities analysts, and other interested parties in evaluating our operational and financial performance across reporting periods. We believe that the presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors by allowing an understanding of key measures that we use internally for operational decision-making, budgeting, evaluating acquisition targets, and assessing our operating performance.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for net income or any other financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP. These measures have limitations as analytical tools, and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes 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.

should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes 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.

Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, same store measures, EBITDA and Adjusted 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 these non-GAAP financial measures with those used by other companies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations, availability under our credit facilities and our cash balances. Our principal liquidity requirements are the financing of current operations, funding capital expenditures, (including acquisitions), and servicing debt. We finance our inventory purchases primarily from customary trade credit aided by relatively rapid inventory turnover, as well as cash generated from operations. Rapid inventory turnover allows us to conduct operations without the need for large amounts of cash and working capital. We largely rely on internally generated cash flows and borrowings for operations, which we believe are sufficient to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future.

41Our ability to meet our debt service obligations and other capital requirements, including capital expenditures, as well as the cost of acquisitions, will depend on our future operating performance which, in turn, will be subject to general economic, financial, business, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other conditions, many of which are beyond our control. As a normal part of our business, we will from time to time consider opportunities to repay, redeem, repurchase or refinance our indebtedness, depending on market conditions. Changes in our operating plans, lower than anticipated sales, increased expenses, acquisitions, or other events may cause us to seek additional debt or equity financing in future periods. Additional debt financing could impose increased cash payment obligations, as well as covenants that may restrict our operations. There can be no guarantee that financing will be available on

This liquidity position currently provides us with adequate funding to satisfy our contractual and other obligations from our existing cash balances. As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024, we had no outstanding borrowings under our $140.0 million PNC Line of Credit (as defined below), $2921.49 million of unused availability under the M&T equipment line of credit, described below, and $~~461~~424.27 million of unused availability under our $800 million Capital One Line of Credit (as defined below), which we may elect to increase up to $1.0 billion, subject to obtaining additional financing commitments from current lenders or other banks, and subject to certain other terms.

The Board declared, and the Company paid, dividends of $0.03 per share of common stock on ~~each of~~ March 21, ~~2023~~2024, ~~June 1, 2023 and September 1, 2023,~~ totaling approximately $103.86 million. Additionally, the Board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.03 per share of common stock, to be paid on ~~December~~May 131, ~~2023~~2024 to stockholders of record as of ~~November~~May 1720, ~~2023~~2024. The amount and timing of dividends payable on our common stock are within the sole discretion of our Board, which will evaluate dividend payments within the context of our overall capital allocation strategy on an ongoing basis, giving consideration to our current and forecast earnings, financial condition, cash requirements and other factors. There can be no assurance that we will continue to pay such dividends or the amounts of such dividends.

In May ~~2023~~2024, wethe ~~announced that our~~ Board ~~authorized~~increased anthe ~~increase~~size toof our share repurchase program ~~from~~for up to an aggregate of $50125.0 million toof upour tooutstanding shares of common stock, from an aggregate of $100.0 million of our outstanding shares of common stock. During the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024, inclusive of the repurchase of the First Installment Shares from TEG, we repurchased approximately 34.18 million shares of common stock under the share repurchase program for approximately $2328.53 million, or an average share price of $75.5589. The share repurchase program does not have a stated expiration date. Whether and the extent to which we repurchase shares depends on a number of factors, including our financial condition, capital requirements, cash flows, results of operations, future business prospects and other factors management may deem relevant. The timing, volume, and nature of repurchases are subject to market conditions, applicable securities laws, and other factors, and the program may be amended, suspended or discontinued at any time. Repurchases may be effected from time to time through open market purchases, including pursuant to a pre-set trading plan meeting the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c)of the Exchange Act, privately negotiated transactions, pursuant to accelerated share repurchase agreements entered into with one or more counterparties, or otherwise.

To date, we have funded capital expenditures primarily through funds generated from operations, funds received from vendors, sale-leaseback transactions, the issuance of debt, and existing cash. Future capital required to finance operations, acquisitions, and raze-and-rebuild, functionally remodel and fully remodel and update stores is expected to come from cash on hand, cash generated by operations, availability under lines of credit, and additional long-term debt and equipment leases, as circumstances may dictate. In ~~both~~ the short-~~term~~ ~~and~~to ~~long~~medium-term, we currently expect that our capital spending program will be primarily focused on ~~expanding our store base through acquisitions, razing-and-rebuilding,~~ remodeling and updating stores, and maintaining our ~~owned~~ properties and equipment,. ~~including~~In ~~upgrading~~the ~~all~~medium- ~~fuel dispensers~~ to ~~be EMV~~long-~~compliant.~~term, Wewe currently expect tothat ~~spend~~our acapital ~~total~~spending ofprogram ~~approximately~~will ~~$4.5~~include ~~million~~more infocus ~~the~~on ~~current~~expanding ~~year to upgrade substantially all~~ our ~~fuel~~store ~~dispensers~~base through new-to-industry bestore ~~EMV-compliant~~builds.

Operating Activities

Cash flows provided by operations are our main source of liquidity. We have historically relied primarily on cash provided by operating activities, supplemented as necessary from time to time by borrowings on our credit facilities and other debt or equity transactions to finance our operations and to fund our capital expenditures. Cash flow provided by operating activities is primarily impacted by our net income and changes in working capital.

For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024, cash flows provided by operating activities were $7812.8 million compared to $~~139~~15.89 million for the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2022~~2023. The decrease was primarily the result of approximately $125.41 million of higher net interest payments, ~~approximately~~and a decrease in Adjusted EBITDA of $2210.98 million ofprimarily ~~higher~~from ~~net~~lower ~~tax~~fuel ~~payments~~contribution and aregulatory ~~technical~~state-wide ~~delay~~elimination of Virginia skill gaming machines income coupled with increases in ~~receiving~~same ~~approximately~~store ~~$12~~site operating expenses and general and administrative expenses.1 ~~million~~Cash ~~from~~flows aprovided ~~routine~~by ~~credit~~operating ~~card~~activities ~~processor~~for the three months ended March 31, as2023 ~~well~~were asunfavorably aimpacted ~~decrease~~by the investment in ~~Adjusted~~working ~~EBITDA~~capital ofassociated ~~$3.7~~with ~~million~~the TEG Acquisition.

Investing Activities

Cash flows used in investing activities primarily reflect capital expenditures for acquisitions and replacing and maintaining existing facilities and equipment used in the business.

For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024, cash used in investing activities ~~increased~~decreased by $~~198~~125.71 million compared to the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2022~~2023. For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024, we utilized $7529.62 million for capital expenditures, including the purchase of certain fee properties, upgrades to fuel dispensers and other investments in our stores. ~~The net consideration paid by us for our recent acquisitions $111.5 million, reflecting $494.9 million in aggregate purchase consideration, offset by $383.4 million paid by Oak Street.~~

Financing Activities

Cash flows from financing activities primarily consist of increases and decreases in the principal amount of our lines of credit and debt, ~~distributions to non-controlling interests~~ and issuance of common and preferred stock, net of dividends paid and common stock repurchases.

For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024, financing activities consisted primarily of net receipts of $6235.30 million for long-term debt, repayments of $801.41 million offor ~~consideration~~financing ~~paid~~leases, by$3.6 ~~Oak~~million ~~Street~~for ~~related~~dividend topayments ~~the~~on ~~2023~~common ~~Acquisitions~~stock, ~~which~~$1.4 ~~transactions~~million ~~with~~for ~~Oak~~dividend ~~Street~~payments ~~were~~on ~~accounted~~the Series A redeemable preferred stock and $31.9 million for ascommon ~~sale-leasebacks~~stock ~~(see~~repurchases, ~~Note~~including 3the torepurchase ~~our~~of ~~condensed~~the ~~consolidated~~First ~~financial~~Installment ~~statements~~Shares ~~contained~~originally issued to pay deferred consideration in ~~this~~the ~~Quarterly~~TEG ~~Report~~Acquisition. onWe ~~Form~~also ~~10-Q),~~made an early payment of $917.82 million, ~~for~~as ~~the~~payment ~~Ares~~in ~~Put~~full ~~Option,~~and ~~repayments~~as ofa discount for the $425.20 million ~~for~~deferred ~~financing~~consideration ~~leases,~~in ~~$10.8~~the ~~million~~TEG ~~for~~Acquisition ~~dividend~~which ~~payments~~would have been due on ~~common~~March ~~stock~~1, $42025.3 ~~million~~See ~~for~~Note ~~dividend~~4 ~~payments~~to onour ~~the~~consolidated ~~Series~~unaudited Ainterim ~~redeemable~~financial ~~preferred~~statements ~~stock~~included ~~and~~in ~~$25.2~~this ~~million~~Quarterly ~~for~~Report ~~common~~on ~~stock~~Form ~~repurchases~~10-Q.

Credit Facilities and Senior Notes

Senior Notes

~~The~~As of March 31, 2024, the Company ~~has~~had outstanding $450 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.125% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “Senior Notes”). ~~The~~Issued in October 2021, the Senior Notes are guaranteed, on an unsecured senior basis, by certain of the Company’s wholly owned domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”). The indenture governing the Senior Notes contains customary restrictive covenants that, among other things, generally limit the ability of the Company and substantially all of its subsidiaries to (i) create liens, (ii) pay dividends, acquire shares of capital stock and make payments on subordinated debt, (iii) place limitations on distributions from certain subsidiaries, (iv) issue or sell the capital stock of certain subsidiaries, (v) sell assets, (vi) enter into transactions with affiliates, (vii) effect mergers and (viii) incur indebtedness. The Senior Notes and the guarantees rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ respective existing and future senior unsubordinated indebtedness and are effectively subordinated to all of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness; and are structurally subordinated to any existing and future obligations of subsidiaries of the Company that are not Guarantors.

Guarantors’ existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness; and are structurally subordinated to any existing and future obligations of subsidiaries of the Company that are not Guarantors.

Financing Agreement with PNC

GPM and certain subsidiaries have a financing arrangement (as amended, the “PNC Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank National Association (“PNC”) to provide a line of credit with an aggregate principal amount of up to $140 million for purposes of financing working capital (the “PNC Line of Credit”).

The PNC Line of Credit bears interest, as elected by GPM at: (a) SOFR Adjusted plus Term SOFR (as defined in the PNC Credit Agreement) plus a margin of 1.25% to 1.75% or (b) a rate per annum equal to the alternate base rate (as defined in the PNC Credit Agreement) plus a margin of 0% to 0.50%. Every quarter, the SOFR margin rate and the alternate base rate margin rate are updated based on the quarterly average undrawn availability of the line of credit. The calculation of the availability under the PNC Line of Credit is determined monthly subject to terms and limitations as set forth in the PNC Credit Agreement, taking into account the balances of receivables, inventory and letters of credit, among other things. As of September 30, 2023, $7.3 million of letters of credit were outstanding under the PNC Credit Agreement.

As of March 31, 2024, $7.1 million of letters of credit were outstanding under the PNC Credit Agreement.

Financing Agreements with M&T Bank

As of March 31, 2024, GPM has a financing arrangement with M&T Bank tothat ~~provide~~provides a line of credit for up to $45.0 million to purchase equipment on or before September 2026, ~~and~~ which ~~line~~ may be borrowed in tranches, as ~~described~~well ~~below,~~as ~~and~~ an aggregate original principal amount of $3549.05 million of a real estate ~~loan~~loans (the “M&T Term ~~Loan~~Loans”). As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024, approximately $2921.49 million remained available under the equipment line of credit.

Each additional equipment loan tranche under such financing agreement will have a term of up to five years from the date it is advanced, payable in equal monthly payments of principal plus interest of SOFR (as defined in the agreement) plus 2.75%. The M&T Term ~~Loan~~Loans ~~bears~~bear interest at SOFR Adjusted (as defined in the agreement) plus 2.75% to 3.00% (depending on the loan), ~~matures~~mature in June 2026 or November 2028 (depending on the loan) and isare payable in monthly installments based on a fifteen-year amortization schedule, with the balance of ~~the~~each loan payable at maturity.

Financing ~~agreement~~Agreement with a ~~syndicate~~Syndicate of ~~banks~~Banks ~~led~~Led by Capital One, National Association (“Capital One”)

GPMP has a revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks led by Capital One, National Association, in an aggregate principal amount of up to $800 million (the “Capital One Line of Credit”). At GPMP’s request, the Capital One Line of Credit can be increased up to $1.0 billion, subject to obtaining additional financing commitments from current lenders or from other banks, and subject to certain terms as detailed in the Capital One Line of Credit. The ~~revolving credit facility matures on May 5, 2028. As of September 30, 2023, approximately $338.3 million was drawn on the~~ Capital One Line of Credit, ~~$0.5~~is ~~million~~available offor ~~letters~~general ofGPMP ~~credit~~purposes, ~~were~~including ~~outstanding~~working ~~under~~capital, ~~the~~capital ~~Capital~~expenditures ~~One Line of Credit~~ and ~~approximately~~permitted ~~$461~~acquisitions.2 ~~million was available thereunder.~~

On March 26, 2024, GPMP, Capital One and the guarantors and lenders party thereto entered into an amendment to the Capital One Line of Credit, to facilitate the borrowing and use of up to $36.5 million of the Capital One Line of Credit for the settlement of the Installment Payments as provided for in the TEG Purchase Agreement Amendment. The other material terms of the Capital One Line of Credit remain unchanged. The Capital One Line of Credit matures on May 5, 2028. As of March 31, 2024, approximately $374.8 million was drawn on the Capital One Line of Credit, $0.5 million of letters of credit were outstanding under the Capital One Line of Credit and approximately $424.7 million was available thereunder. In April 2024, we financed the SpeedyQ acquisition (as described in Note 15 to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q) utilizing $6.0 million under the Capital One Line of Credit.

The Capital One Line of Credit bears interest, as elected by GPMP at: (a) Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the agreement) plus a margin of 2.25% to 3.25% or (b) a rate per annum equal to the alternate base rate (as defined in the agreement) plus a margin of 1.25% to 2.25%. The margin is determined according to a formula in the Capital One Line of Credit that depends on GPMP’s leverage.

Critical Accounting ~~Policies and~~ Estimates

For the ~~nine~~three months ended ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024, there were no material changes to our critical accounting ~~policies and~~ estimates described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2022~~2023 that have had a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Commodity Price Risk

We have limited exposure to commodity price risk as a result of the payment and volume-related discounts in certain of our fuel supply contracts with our fuel suppliers, which are based on the market price of motor fuel. Significant increases in fuel prices could result in significant increases in the retail price of fuel and in lower sales to consumers and dealers. When fuel prices rise, some of our dealers may have insufficient credit to purchase fuel from us at their historical volumes. In addition, significant and persistent increases in the retail price of fuel could also diminish consumer demand, which could subsequently diminish the volume of fuel we distribute. A significant percentage of our sales are made with the use of credit cards. Because the interchange fees we pay when credit cards are used to make purchases are based on transaction amounts, higher fuel prices at the pump and higher gallon movements result in higher credit card expenses. These additional fees increase operating expenses. We make use of derivative commodity instruments

~~in higher credit card expenses. These additional fees increase operating expenses. In connection with the Quarles Acquisition, we began~~ to ~~make use of derivative commodity instruments to~~ manage risks associated with an immaterial number of gallons designed to offset changes in the price of fuel that are directly tied to firm commitments to purchase diesel fuel.

Interest Rate Risk

We may be subject to market risk from exposure to changes in interest rates based on our financing, investing, and cash management activities. The Senior Notes bear a fixed interest rate, therefore, an increase or decrease in prevailing interest rates has no impact on our debt service for the Senior Notes. As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024, the interest rate on our Capital One Line of Credit was 78.92%, the interest rate on our M&T Term Loan was 8.43% and the interest rate on ~~our~~the variable portion of our M&T equipment loan was 8.1% (approximately $15.6 million of the total loan). As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2022~~2023, the interest rate on our Capital One Line of Credit was 57.1% and the interest rate on our M&T Term Loan was 67.26% (the entire M&T equipment loan had a fixed rate). As of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024, approximately 4448% of our debt bore interest at variable rates. IfBased on the outstanding balances as of March 31, 2024, if our applicable interest rates increase by 1%, then our debt service on an annual basis would increase by approximately $34.73 million. Interest rates on commercial bank borrowings and debt offerings could be higher than current levels, causing our financing costs to increase accordingly. Although this could limit our ability to raise funds in the debt capital markets, we expect to remain competitive with respect to acquisitions and capital projects, as our competitors would likely face similar circumstances.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) under the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The disclosure controls and procedures related to the TEG Acquisition we closed on March 1, 2023 were excluded from the evaluation of effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2023, due to the timing of this acquisition. This acquisition’s total assets constituted approximately 11% of the Company’s total assets as of September 30, 2023, and represented approximately 8% of the Company’s revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Based on management’s evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~September~~March 3031, ~~2023~~2024.
