Global Partners (GLP) Q2 EPS Falls 50%
Global Partners (NYSE:GLP), a major owner of fuel terminals and gasoline stations in the Northeast U.S, reported its second quarter 2025 results on August 7, 2025. The headline news was that both earnings per share (EPS) and revenue for Q2 2025 fell short of analyst expectations. The company posted GAAP EPS of $0.55, lower than the consensus estimate of $0.60, and revenue (GAAP) reached $4.6 billion, lagging the expected $5.98 billion. Key profitability and margin metrics also declined compared to Q2 2024, led by reduced earnings, lower profits in retail operations, and weaker margins for wholesale gasoline products. Despite these results, Global Partners raised its cash distribution per unit and continued to invest in acquiring and integrating fuel terminals. The quarter reflected both ongoing growth strategies and short-term execution challenges.
