Casey’s Finishes the Year Strong and Remains Optimistic for Fiscal 2014

Ankeny, IA, June 13, 2013—Casey’s General Stores, Inc. (Nasdaq symbol CASY) today reported $0.60 in diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of fiscal year ended April 30, 2013 compared to $0.60 for the same period a year ago. For the year, diluted earnings per share were $2.86 versus $3.04 for the same period last year. The Company incurred approximately $3.5 million in non-cash charges in the 4^th quarter related to the write-down of an unrecoverable accounts receivable balance, as well as charges pertaining to accelerated depreciation and impairment for replaced, closed, and seven underperforming stores.

“A difficult cigarette environment and challenging weather comparisons adversely impacted sales during fiscal 2013,” said Chairman and CEO Robert J. Myers. “However, in the fourth quarter we saw strong sales gains with the recent implementation of a “fuel saver” program in partnership with Hy-Vee grocery stores and competitive cigarette pricing adjustments made earlier in the fiscal year. We expect this momentum will continue into fiscal 2014.”

Gasoline—The Company’s annual goal for fiscal 2013 was to increase same-store gasoline gallons sold 1% with an average margin of 14.0 cents per gallon. For the quarter, same-store gallons sold rose 1.0% with an average margin of 17.0 cents per gallon. “The fourth quarter gas margin benefited from our ability to sell 10.3 million renewable fuel credits for $4.8 million.” said Myers. For the fiscal year, total gallons sold were up 4% to 1.5 billion with an average margin of 15.2 cents, while gross profit rose 2.7%. Same-store gallons for the year were relatively flat compared to a year ago.

Grocery & Other Merchandise—Casey’s fiscal 2013 goal was to increase same-store sales 6.2% with an average margin of 32.7%. For the quarter, same-store sales were down 0.2% from the same period a year ago with an average margin of 31.7%. For the year, same-store sales finished up 0.8% with an average margin of 32.6%. “Challenging weather comparisons throughout the entire quarter hindered sales while cigarette price adjustments adversely impacted margins,” stated Myers. “However we are encouraged by the recent stabilization in cigarette sales and expect continued growth in beer and beverage sales during fiscal 2014.” Total annual sales for the category were up 3.9% compared to the prior year, and gross profit rose 4.4% to $462.7 million.

Prepared Food & Fountain—The goal for fiscal 2013 was to increase same-store sales 11% with an average margin of 61.1%. Same-store sales for the fourth quarter increased 4.4% with an average margin of 60.5%. For the year, same-store sales were up 8.6% with an average margin of 61.8%. “Unfavorable weather and higher input costs impacted fourth quarter results,” said Myers. “Looking ahead to fiscal 2014, we will continue to grow this category by implementing major remodels, 24-hour conversions, and pizza delivery where appropriate.” Year to date, total sales were up 13% to $564.9 million, and gross profit rose 15.1% to $349 million.

Operating Expenses—For the fiscal year, operating expenses increased 10.4% to $760.4 million. For the quarter, operating expenses were up 8.6%. In the fourth quarter, the Company wrote-off an accounts receivable balance of $1.5 million from a check collecting service that went out of business. The Company also incurred an impairment charge of approximately $0.7 million for seven underperforming stores that are expected to be closed in fiscal 2014. “The majority of the operating expense increase was due to various initiatives implemented to grow the business, particularly newly constructed, acquired, and replaced stores along with expanded hours, pizza delivery, and major remodels,” said Myers. For the year, store level operating expenses increased less than 4% for the remaining unchanged base of stores.

Expansion—The fiscal 2013 goal was to increase the total number of stores 4-6%. For the fiscal year, the Company opened 26 acquired stores and completed 31 new-store constructions, bringing the year-end store count to 1,749. In addition to this activity, the Company also replaced 26 stores during the year. “We currently have 15 new stores and 16 replacement stores under construction, as well as 20 stores under contract to acquire,” said Myers. “We have entered into several new markets this past year and we are excited about our growth opportunities in fiscal 2014.” The Company has over 70 locations under contract for both new store and replacement store construction.

Fiscal 2014 Goals—The corporate performance goals for fiscal 2014 are as follows:

Dividend— At its June meeting, the Board of Directors increased the quarterly dividend to $0.18 per share. The dividend is payable August 15, 2013 to shareholders of record on August 1, 2013.
