Organization and Basis of Presentation | Note 1. Organization and Basis of Presentation Organization Global Partners LP (the “Partnership”) is a master limited partnership formed in March 2005. The Partnership owns, controls or has access to a large terminal network of refined petroleum products and renewable fuels—with connectivity to strategic rail, pipeline and marine assets—spanning from Maine to Florida and into the U.S. Gulf States. The Partnership is one of the largest independent owners, suppliers and operators of gasoline stations and convenience stores, primarily in Massachusetts, Maine, Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania (collectively, the “Northeast”) and Maryland and Virginia. As of December 31, 2025, the Partnership had a portfolio of 1,524 owned, leased and/or supplied gasoline stations, including 290 directly operated convenience stores, primarily in the Northeast, as well as 67 gasoline stations located in Texas that are operated or supplied by the Partnership’s joint venture, Spring Partners Retail LLC (“SPR”). The Partnership is also one of the largest distributors of gasoline, distillates, residual oil and renewable fuels to wholesalers, retailers and commercial customers in the New England states and New York. The Partnership engages in the purchasing, selling, gathering, blending, storing and logistics of transporting petroleum and related products, including gasoline and gasoline blendstocks (such as ethanol), distillates (such as home heating oil, diesel and kerosene), residual oil, renewable fuels, crude oil and propane and in the transportation of petroleum products and renewable fuels by rail from the mid-continent region of the United States and Canada. Global GP LLC, the Partnership’s general partner (the “General Partner”), manages the Partnership’s operations and activities and employs its officers and substantially all of its personnel, except for most of its gasoline station and convenience store employees who are employed by Global Montello Group Corp. (“GMG”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership and for substantially all of the employees who primarily or exclusively provide services to SPR, who are employed by SPR Operator LLC (“SPR Operator”), also a wholly owned subsidiary of the Partnership. The General Partner, which holds a 0.67% general partner interest in the Partnership, is owned by affiliates of the Slifka family. As of December 31, 2025, affiliates of the General Partner, including its directors and executive officers and their affiliates, owned 4,216,868 common units, and the General Partner held 230,273 common units on behalf of the Partnership pursuant to its repurchase program for future long-term incentive plan obligations, representing in the aggregate a 13.1% limited partner interest. 2025 Events Expansion of Marine Fuel Supply Operations—In October 2025, the Partnership expanded its marine fuel supply operations into the Gulf Coast with throughput and barge time-charter arrangements that enable operations in the Port of Houston and adjacent Gulf Coast ports, including Freeport, Beaumont and Lake Charles. 2033 Notes Offering and 2027 Notes Tender Offer and Redemption—On June 23, 2025, the Partnership and GLP Finance Corp. (the “Issuers”) issued $450.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.125% senior notes due 2033 (the “2033 Notes”) in a private placement exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Partnership used the net proceeds from the offering to fund the purchase of a portion of its 7.00% senior notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”) in a cash tender offer and to repay a portion of the borrowings outstanding under its credit agreement. On August 1, 2025, the Issuers redeemed the remaining 2027 Notes not purchased in the tender offer. See Note 9, “Debt and Financing Obligations—Senior Notes” for additional information on the 2033 Notes. Amendment to the Credit Agreement—On March 20, 2025, the Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries entered into the eleventh amendment to the third amended and restated credit agreement which, among other things, (i) extended the maturity date from May 2, 2026 to March 20, 2028, (ii) increased the working capital revolving credit facility from $950.0 million to $1.0 billion, and (iii) decreased the revolving credit facility from $600.0 million to $500.0 million. See Note 9 for additional information on the credit agreement. Investment in Real Estate—On January 23, 2025, the Partnership, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Global HQ 2 LLC, invested in BIG GRP 275 Grove JV LLC, a joint venture formed with unrelated third parties to acquire and operate an office building located in Newton, Massachusetts. Also on January 23, 2025, the Partnership signed a 12-year lease arrangement for space in this property that will serve as the Partnership’s principal executive office at the termination of its existing leased space in Waltham, Massachusetts in 2026. See Note 17 for additional information.
