OMAHA, Neb.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- AMCON Distributing Company (“AMCON� or “the Company�) (NYSE American: DIT), an Omaha, Nebraska based Convenience and Foodservice Distributor, announces fully diluted loss per share of $2.58 on a net loss available to common shareholders of $1.6 million for its second fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2025.

“The convenience retailing sector which we serve continues to experience a challenging operating environment with consumer behavior and discretionary spending lagging. At the same time, the cost structures for Convenience Distributors have been impacted by the cumulative impact of inflation over a multi-year period. These inflationary pressures have resulted in higher operating expenses in areas such as product costs, labor and employee benefits, equipment, and insurance, and in additional consolidation across our entire industry. Our management team is integrating our recent acquisitions and new facilities in order to provide our customer base AMCON’s industry leading suite of programs and services,� said Christopher H. Atayan, AMCON’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. He further noted, “We continue to actively seek strategic acquisition opportunities for Convenience and Foodservice Distributors, and their families, who want to align with our customer focused approach philosophy and further the legacy of their enterprises.�

“The system integration work we are implementing across our organization, which has now become the third largest Convenience Distributor in the United States measured by territory covered, provides the foundational support for our operating philosophy centered on a superior level of customer service. Our customer-centric approach is particularly helpful in challenging weather conditions as we ensure that AMCON’s retail partners receive a consistent and timely flow of goods and services. As we grow, our customer base has been increasingly enthusiastic about our integrated state of the art advertising, design, print and electronic display programs that we believe provide our customers a competitive edge,� said Andrew C. Plummer, AMCON’s President and Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Plummer continued, “Foodservice continues to be a strategic focus. We offer a breadth and depth of proprietary foodservice programs and associated store level merchandising that is unparalleled in the convenience distribution industry. We now have the capability to offer turn-key solutions that will enable our retail partners the ability to compete head-on with the Quick Service Restaurant industry.�

For the fiscal quarter ended March 2025, the wholesale distribution segment reported revenues of $607.6 million and operating income of $2.8 million and the retail health food segment reported revenues of $11.9 million and operating income of $0.4 million.

“We continue our relentless daily focus on managing the Company’s balance sheet and maximizing our liquidity position. At March 31, 2025, our shareholders� equity was $111.4 million,� said Charles J. Schmaderer, AMCON’s Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Schmaderer also added, “We are investing capital to develop our recently acquired 250,000 square foot distribution facility in Colorado City, Colorado, which will support our customers� growth initiatives in the Intermountain Region.�

AMCON, and its subsidiaries Team Sledd, LLC and Henry’s Foods, Inc., is a leading Convenience and Foodservice Distributor of consumer products, including beverages, candy, tobacco, groceries, foodservice, frozen and refrigerated foods, automotive supplies and health and beauty care products with fourteen (14) distribution centers in Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Tennessee and West Virginia. Through its Healthy Edge Retail Group, AMCON operates fifteen (15) health and natural product retail stores in the Midwest and Florida.

A number of factors could affect the future results of the Company and could cause those results to differ materially from those expressed in the Company's forward-looking statements including, without limitation, availability of sufficient cash resources to conduct its business and meet its capital expenditures needs and the other factors described under Item 1.A. of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. Moreover, past financial performance should not be considered a reliable indicator of future performance. Accordingly, the Company claims the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to all such forward-looking statements.
