Casey’s chairman, president and CEO Darren Rebelez said: “Casey’s started the fiscal year off on the right foot and delivered another solid quarter highlighted by strong inside gross profit growth. Inside same-store sales were driven by prepared food and dispensed beverages, with hot sandwiches and bakery performing exceptionally well.  

“Our fuel team continues to balance volume and margin as they delivered positive same-store fuel gallons while also achieving over 40 cents per gallon fuel margin. The operations team continues to find efficiencies as we reduced same-store labour hours for the ninth consecutive quarter.” 

For fiscal 2025, the retailer anticipates inside same-store sales to grow between 3% and 5% and inside margin to be comparable to fiscal 2024.  

Casey’s also expects total operating expenses to increase 6% to 8% during the fiscal year.  

In July 2024, the retailer entered an agreement to acquire CEFCO Convenience Stores, owned by Fikes Wholesale, in a $1.145bn cash transaction.
