“CrossAmerica had it strongest first quarter in history in terms of overall EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow," said Charles Nifong, President and CEO of CrossAmerica. “From the Omicron surge in January to the extreme oil market pricing and volatility pressures in the latter half of the quarter, it was a challenging operational environment.

First Quarter Results

Consolidated Results

Key Operating Metrics | Q1 2022 | Q1 2021
Operating Income | $9.7M | ($0.9)M
Adjusted EBITDA | $32.0M | $20.7M
Distributable Cash Flow | $24.2M | $15.8M
Distribution Coverage Ratio – Current Quarter | 1.22x | 0.79x

CrossAmerica reported Operating Income of $9.7 million and Net Income of $5.0 million or earnings of $0.13 per diluted common unit for the first quarter 2022 compared to an Operating Loss of $0.9 million and a Net Loss of $4.0 million or $0.10 per common unit during the same period of 2021. During the first quarter 2022, Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow increased by more than 50% each as compared to the first quarter 2021. Each metric, as well as the Distribution Coverage Ratio, benefited from the overall performance in both the wholesale and retail segments, as well as the growth of the organization as a result of the acquisition of assets from 7-Eleven during the second half of 2021.

Non-GAAP measures used in this release include EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio. These Non-GAAP measures are further described and reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP measures in the Supplemental Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures section of this release.

Wholesale Segment

Key Operating Metrics | Q1 2022 | Q1 2021
Wholesale segment gross profit | $46.9M | $34.9M
Wholesale motor fuel gallons distributed | 320.2M | 291.8M
Average wholesale gross profit per gallon | $0.102 | $0.073

During the first quarter 2022, CrossAmerica’s wholesale segment gross profit increased 35% compared to the first quarter 2021. This was driven by an increase in motor fuel gross profit resulting from a 10% increase in fuel volume distributed and a 40% increase in fuel margin per gallon. The main driver of the volume increase was the acquisition of assets from 7-Eleven. The Partnership’s wholesale fuel margin benefited from its ongoing strategic initiatives, increased volume to CrossAmerica’s company operated retail sites and higher terms discount as a result of the higher crude prices during the quarter.

Retail Segment

Key Operating Metrics | Q1 2022 | Q1 2021
Retail segment gross profit | $32.7M | $19.7M
Retail motor fuel gallons distributed | 116.0M | 78.2M
Same store retail motor fuel gallons distributed | 39.2M | 37.5M
Motor fuel gross profit | $10.5M | $5.4M
Same store merchandise sales excluding cigs. | $23.1M | $23.0M
Merchandise gross profit | $16.7M | $10.4M
Merchandise gross profit percentage | 26.8% | 27.4%

For the first quarter 2022, the retail segment generated a 66% increase in gross profit compared to the first quarter 2021 due to increased retail fuel gallons sold, higher fuel margins and higher merchandise gross profit.

The retail segment sold 116.0 million of retail fuel gallons during the first quarter 2022, a 48% increase over first quarter 2021. This increased volume resulted from the increase in company operated sites as a result of the acquisition of assets from 7-Eleven. Same store fuel volume for the first quarter 2022 increased to 39.2 million gallons from 37.5 million gallons during the first quarter 2021, an increase of 4%. Additionally, the retail segment generated higher fuel margins for the three months ended March 31, 2022, as compared to the same period in 2021 due to the segment having a higher proportion of company operated retail locations as compared to commission agent locations than during the first quarter 2021.

CrossAmerica’s merchandise gross profit and other revenue increased due to the increase in company operated sites driven by the acquisition of assets from 7-Eleven. Merchandise gross profit percentage declined slightly from 27.4% to 26.8% with same store merchandise sales excluding cigarettes increasing 1% for the first quarter 2022 when compared to the first quarter 2021.

Divestment and Acquisition Activity

In February 2022, CrossAmerica closed on the final three properties related to its acquisition of assets from 7-Eleven for a purchase price of $3.6 million (including inventory and working capital), of which $1.8 million will be paid on or prior to February 8, 2027.

During the first three months of 2022, CrossAmerica sold four properties for $1.5 million in proceeds, resulting in a net gain of $0.3 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2022, CrossAmerica had $630.0 million outstanding under its CAPL Credit Facility and $163.6 million outstanding under its JKM Credit Facility.

(b) The decrease in the independent dealer site count was primarily attributable to loss of contracts, most of which were lower margin, partially offset by the increase in independent dealer sites as a result of the real estate rationalization effort and the resulting reclassification of the sites from a lessee dealer or commission site to an independent dealer site when CrossAmerica continues to supply the sites after divestiture.

(c) The decreases in the lessee dealer and commission agent site counts were primarily attributable to the real estate rationalization effort.

(d) The increase in the company operated site count was primarily attributable to the 106 company operated sites from the acquisition of assets from 7-Eleven.

Supplemental Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

CrossAmerica uses the non-GAAP financial measures EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio. EBITDA represents net income available to CrossAmerica before deducting interest expense, income taxes and depreciation, amortization and accretion (which includes certain impairment charges). Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted to exclude equity-based compensation expense, gains or losses on dispositions and lease terminations, net and certain discrete acquisition related costs, such as legal and other professional fees, separation benefit costs and certain other discrete non-cash items arising from purchase accounting. Distributable Cash Flow represents Adjusted EBITDA less cash interest expense, sustaining capital expenditures and current income tax expense. The Distribution Coverage Ratio is computed by dividing Distributable Cash Flow by distributions paid.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio are used as supplemental financial measures by management and by external users of our financial statements, such as investors and lenders. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used to assess CrossAmerica’s financial performance without regard to financing methods, capital structure or income taxes and the ability to incur and service debt and to fund capital expenditures. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is used to

assess the operating performance of the Partnership’s business on a consistent basis by excluding the impact of items which do not result directly from the wholesale distribution of motor fuel, the leasing of real property, or the day to day operations of CrossAmerica’s retail site activities. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio are also used to assess the ability to generate cash sufficient to make distributions to CrossAmerica’s unitholders.

CrossAmerica believes the presentation of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio provides useful information to investors in assessing the financial condition and results of operations. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio should not be considered alternatives to net income or any other measure of financial performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some but not all items that affect net income. Additionally, because EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Distributable Cash Flow and Distribution Coverage Ratio may be defined differently by other companies in the industry, CrossAmerica’s definitions may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies, thereby diminishing their utility.

The following table presents reconciliations of EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Distributable Cash Flow to net income, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, for each of the periods indicated (in thousands, except for per unit amounts):
