Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Global Partners LP reported modestly higher fourth-quarter 2025 profitability but softer full-year earnings versus 2024. Q4 2025 net income was $25.1 million, or $0.54 per diluted common unit, up slightly from $23.9 million, or $0.52, a year earlier. Full-year 2025 net income was $98.0 million, or $2.11 per diluted unit, down from $110.3 million, or $2.41, in 2024.

Q4 sales rose to $4.6 billion from $4.2 billion, driven mainly by higher Wholesale volume, with total quarterly volume increasing to 2.1 billion gallons from 1.8 billion. Segment performance was mixed: Gasoline Distribution and Station Operations product margin increased to $231.3 million, while Wholesale product margin fell to $58.3 million and Commercial product margin declined to $6.0 million, reflecting less favorable conditions in several markets.

Full-year EBITDA was $378.8 million compared with $389.4 million in 2024, and adjusted EBITDA was $383.0 million versus $389.1 million. Full-year distributable cash flow was $189.1 million, with adjusted DCF of $190.9 million, both below 2024 levels, indicating slightly lower cash generation even as gross profit and combined product margin held around $1.1–$1.2 billion.

Insights

Results show stable Q4, mildly weaker full-year cash generation.

Global Partners LP delivered solid fourth-quarter 2025 results, with net income of $25.1M and EBITDA of $94.1M, roughly flat year over year. Higher total sales of $4.6B and volume of 2.1 billion gallons underline strong Wholesale activity despite softer margins in that segment.

For full-year 2025, net income declined to $98.0M from $110.3M and EBITDA eased to $378.8M from $389.4M. Distributable cash flow of $189.1M and adjusted DCF of $190.9M were below 2024, suggesting slightly reduced capacity to fund distributions from internal cash.

Segment trends matter: Gasoline Distribution and Station Operations product margin rose to $231.3M in Q4, while Wholesale and Commercial product margins fell, reflecting less favorable market conditions. Subsequent quarterly reports for periods after December 31, 2025 will show whether stronger retail performance can continue offsetting volatility in wholesale and commercial markets.

Global Partners Reports Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year 2025 

Financial Results

 

Waltham, Mass., February 27, 2026 – Global Partners LP (NYSE: GLP) (“Global Partners” or the “Partnership”) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025.

 

CEO Commentary

 

“We closed 2025 with a fourth quarter that reflected the strength and resilience of our integrated platform,” said Eric Slifka, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Built and refined over more than 90 years, our diversified business model and broad network provide a durable competitive advantage, positioning us to navigate market cycles and adapt to dynamic market conditions while meeting the needs of the markets, customers and communities we serve.

 

“The flexibility of our business model was reflected in the strong fourth-quarter performance of our Gasoline Distribution and Station Operations segment, which helped to offset less favorable market conditions in our Wholesale segment,” Slifka said. “As an owner, supplier, and operator of liquid energy terminals and retail fueling locations, our scale enables us to capture opportunities across the value chain, helping to balance segment variability and support consistent results over time.”

 

Slifka concluded, “Backed by a strong balance sheet and healthy cash flow generation, we enter 2026 focused on disciplined execution and continued investment in our diversified portfolio to enhance long-term value for our unitholders.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

Product Margin

 

Global Partners views product margin as an important performance measure of the core profitability of its operations. The Partnership reviews product margin monthly for consistency and trend analysis. Global Partners defines product margin as product sales minus product costs. Product sales primarily include sales of unbranded and branded gasoline, distillates, residual oil, renewable fuels and crude oil, as well as convenience store and prepared food sales, gasoline station rental income and revenue generated from logistics activities when the Partnership engages in the storage, transloading and shipment of products owned by others. Product costs include the cost of acquiring products and all associated costs including shipping and handling costs to bring such products to the point of sale as well as product costs related to convenience store items and costs associated with logistics activities. The Partnership also looks at product margin on a per unit basis (product margin divided by volume). Product margin is a non-GAAP financial measure used by management and external users of the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements to assess its business. Product margin should not be considered an alternative to net income, operating income, cash flow from operations, or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, product margin may not be comparable to product margin or a similarly titled measure of other companies.

 

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

 

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP financial measures used as supplemental financial measures by management and may be used by external users of Global Partners’ consolidated financial statements, such as investors, commercial banks and research analysts, to assess the Partnership’s:

 

·compliance with certain financial covenants included in its debt agreements;

 

·financial performance without regard to financing methods, capital structure, income taxes or historical cost basis;

 

·ability to generate cash sufficient to pay interest on its indebtedness and to make distributions to its partners;

 

·operating performance and return on invested capital as compared to those of other companies in the wholesale, marketing, storing and distribution of refined petroleum products, gasoline blendstocks, renewable fuels, crude oil and propane, and in the gasoline stations and convenience stores business, without regard to financing methods and capital structure; and

 

·viability of acquisitions and capital expenditure projects and the overall rates of return of alternative investment opportunities.

 

Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA further adjusted for gains or losses on the sale and disposition of assets, goodwill and long-lived asset impairment charges and Global Partners’ proportionate share of EBITDA related to its Spring Partners Retail LLC joint venture, which is accounted for using the equity method. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income, cash flow from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA exclude some, but not all, items that affect net income, and these measures may vary among other companies. Therefore, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Distributable Cash Flow and Adjusted Distributable Cash Flow

 

Distributable cash flow is an important non-GAAP financial measure for the Partnership’s limited partners since it serves as an indicator of Global Partners’ success in providing a cash return on their investment. Distributable cash flow as defined by the Partnership’s partnership agreement (the “partnership agreement”) is net income plus depreciation and amortization minus maintenance capital expenditures, as well as adjustments to eliminate items approved by the audit committee of the board of directors of the Partnership’s general partner that are extraordinary or non-recurring in nature and that would otherwise increase distributable cash flow.

 

Distributable cash flow as used in the partnership agreement also determines Global Partners’ ability to make cash distributions on its incentive distribution rights. The investment community also uses a distributable cash flow metric similar to the metric used in the partnership agreement with respect to publicly traded partnerships to indicate whether or not such partnerships have generated sufficient earnings on a current or historical level that can sustain distributions on preferred or common units or support an increase in quarterly cash distributions on common units. The partnership agreement does not permit adjustments for certain non-cash items, such as net losses on the sale and disposition of assets and goodwill and long-lived asset impairment charges.

 

Adjusted distributable cash flow is a non-GAAP financial measure intended to provide management and investors with an enhanced perspective of the Partnership’s financial performance. Adjusted distributable cash flow is distributable cash flow (as defined in the partnership agreement) further adjusted for Global Partners’ proportionate share of distributable cash flow related to its Spring Partners Retail LLC joint venture, which is accounted for using the equity method. Adjusted distributable cash flow is not used in the partnership agreement to determine the Partnership’s ability to make cash distributions and may be higher or lower than distributable cash flow as calculated under the partnership agreement.

 

Distributable cash flow and adjusted distributable cash flow should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income, cash flow from operations, or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, the Partnership’s distributable cash flow and adjusted distributable cash flow may not be comparable to distributable cash flow or similarly titled measures of other companies.

 

Forward-looking Statements

 

Certain statements and information in this press release may constitute “forward-looking statements.” The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “intend,” “foresee,” “should,” “would,” “could” or other similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, which are generally not historical in nature, although not all forward-looking statements contain such identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on Global Partners’ current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effect on the Partnership. While management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made, there can be no assurance that future developments affecting the Partnership will be those that it anticipates. Forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties (some of which are beyond the Partnership’s control) including, without limitation, uncertainty around the timing of an economic recovery in the United States which will impact the demand for the products we sell and the services that we provide, and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Partnership’s historical experience and present expectations or projections. We believe these assumptions are reasonable given currently available information. Our assumptions and future performance are subject to a wide range of business risks, uncertainties and factors, which are described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

(1) Under the Partnership's partnership agreement, for any quarterly period, the incentive distribution rights ("IDRs") participate in net income only to the extent of the amount of cash distributions actually declared, thereby excluding the IDRs from participating in the Partnership's undistributed net income or losses. Accordingly, the Partnership's undistributed net income or losses is assumed to be allocated to the common unitholders and to the General Partner's general partner interest. Net income attributable to common limited partners is divided by the weighted average common units outstanding in computing the net income per limited partner unit.
