Murphy USA Inc. reported its financial results for the third quarter and the first nine months of 2025, revealing a decline in both revenue and net income compared to the same periods in 2024. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the company generated total operating revenues of $5.1 billion, a decrease of 2.5% from $5.2 billion in the prior year. Net income for the quarter was $129.9 million, or $6.76 per diluted share, down from $149.2 million, or $7.20 per diluted share, in the same quarter of 2024. Year-to-date, revenues fell to $14.6 billion from $15.5 billion, with net income decreasing to $328.7 million from $360.0 million.

The decline in revenue was primarily attributed to a 7.2% reduction in average retail fuel sales prices, despite a 1.2% increase in fuel sales volumes and a 3.7% rise in merchandise sales revenue. The company's petroleum product sales for the quarter were $3.9 billion, down from $4.1 billion, while merchandise sales increased to $1.1 billion from $1.1 billion. Operating expenses also saw a slight decrease, totaling $4.9 billion compared to $5.0 billion in the previous year, driven by lower fuel costs, although this was offset by higher store operating expenses and increased depreciation and amortization.

Strategically, Murphy USA has continued to expand its store footprint, ending the quarter with 1,772 stores across 27 states, including 1,620 Murphy-branded locations and 152 QuickChek stores. The company has also been active in share repurchases, spending approximately $583 million to repurchase shares during the first nine months of 2025, compared to $318 million in the same period of 2024. The company has a remaining authorization of $358.7 million under its $1.5 billion share repurchase program initiated in May 2023.

Looking ahead, Murphy USA anticipates capital expenditures for 2025 to range between $450 million and $500 million, primarily for new store construction and improvements to existing locations. The company expects to fund these expenditures through operating cash flow and available credit facilities. The effective tax rate for the full year is estimated to be between 23.5% and 24.5%. Despite the challenges faced in the current fiscal year, Murphy USA remains optimistic about its growth prospects, particularly in expanding its food and beverage offerings and enhancing its retail capabilities.
