Did CAPL Beat Earnings? Q2 2025 Results

CrossAmerica Partners delivered a standout second quarter, with earnings per share of $0.64 clearing the $0.20 consensus estimate by 220.00% and revenue of $961.92 million beating expectations by 21.22%, even as top-line results reflected a 15.1% yea… Read more CrossAmerica Partners delivered a standout second quarter, with earnings per share of $0.64 clearing the $0.20 consensus estimate by 220.00% and revenue of $961.92 million beating expectations by 21.22%, even as top-line results reflected a 15.1% year-over-year decline. The headline driver was the partnership's aggressive real estate rationalization program, which produced a $29.70 million net gain from the sale of 60 non-strategic properties for $64.00 million in proceeds, more than doubling net income to $25.17 million. Those proceeds were immediately put to work reducing debt, cutting the credit facility balance by $51.00 million to $727.00 million and improving the leverage ratio to 3.65x from 4.36x at year-end 2024. Underneath the asset-sale boost, the underlying business softened, with adjusted EBITDA declining 13% to $37.08 million amid lower fuel and rent gross profit. A bright spot emerged in merchandising, where same-store sales excluding cigarettes grew 4%. Management signaled that further divestitures, particularly in the Northeast, remain on the agenda as the company prioritizes cash flow and balance sheet strength.

Key Takeaways

  • Net gain from asset sales and lease terminations of $28.4 million drove net income growth
  • Same store merchandise sales excluding cigarettes increased 4% year-over-year
  • Merchandise gross profit increased 2% supported by transition from commission to gross profit model
  • Decline in interest expense due to lower average interest rate and lower outstanding debt balance
  • Retail motor fuel volume declined 1% with same store volume down 2%
  • Wholesale volume decreased 7% primarily from conversion of wholesale locations to retail
  • Adjusted EBITDA declined 13% due to lower fuel and rent gross profit and higher operating expenses

“Our second quarter results showed a meaningful improvement over the first quarter, although they remained below prior-year levels. During the quarter, we completed several asset sales, reducing debt by more than $50 million and strengthening our balance sheet. These transactions also positioned our operating portfolio for long-term performance. While overall demand remains soft, our volume and store sales outpaced industry trends, reflecting the strength of our market position.”
