Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We use non-GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted
EBITDA and Store Contribution, to supplement financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that excluding certain
items from our GAAP results allows management to better understand our consolidated financial performance, in the case of Adjusted EBITDA,
and the direct performance of our stores, in the case of Store Contribution, from period to period, and better project our future consolidated
financial performance as forecasts are developed at a level of detail different from that used to prepare GAAP-based financial measures.
Moreover, we believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide our stakeholders with useful information to help them evaluate our operating
results by facilitating an enhanced understanding of our performance and enabling them to make more meaningful period to period comparisons.
There are limitations to the use of the non-GAAP financial measures presented herein. For example, our non-GAAP financial measures may
not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Additionally, Store Contribution excludes costs that we incur on an
enterprise level that while essential in supporting our store operations, are not directly related to store operations, and that we believe
result in efficiencies of scale and confer other benefits across our business. Other companies, including companies in our industry, may
calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently than we do, limiting the usefulness of those measures for comparative purposes.
A reconciliation of our guidance contained in
this press release of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure cannot be provided without unreasonable efforts
and is not provided herein because of the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such
reconciliations, including but not limited to, uncertainty related to the timing, amount, and structure of stock-based compensation awards,
as well as potential forfeitures of such awards, all of which could materially impact the Company’s estimates of forward-looking
GAAP net income. These items are inherently difficult to predict, subject to significant variability, and dependent on factors that may
be outside of the Company’s control.
See “Definitions” for additional information
about our non-GAAP financial measures and “Non-GAAP Reconciling Information” for a reconciliation for each non-GAAP financial
measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
Definitions
· We define the same-store base for a given period
as all owned or leased stores that were open for the entirety of that period in both the current and prior years. This measure highlights
the performance of existing stores, while excluding the impact of new store openings and closures as well as acquisitions and divestitures.
· We define gross profit as sales less cost of goods sold (exclusive of depreciation
and amortization).
· Store Contribution represents, as applicable
for the period, income (loss) from operations before depreciation, amortization and accretion, loss (gain) on disposal of assets, long-lived
asset impairment, acquisition financing, integration, and stock-based compensation expense, and overhead expenses directly attributed
to support staff and corporate offices that, while essential in supporting our store operations, are not directly related to store operations.
· Adjusted EBITDA represents, as applicable for
the period, net income (loss) before change in fair value of derivative liability, interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation,
amortization, and accretion, and further adjusted by excluding the loss (gain) on disposal of assets, long-lived asset impairment, acquisition,
financing, and integration costs, and stock-based compensation expense.
Presentation of Financial Information
As a result of Yesway’s initial public offering
in April 2026, Yesway now consolidates the results of BW Ultimate Parent, LLC, for financial reporting purposes. All of Yesway’s
business operations are currently, and have historically been, conducted through BW Ultimate Parent, LLC and its subsidiaries. Periods
prior to Yesway’s initial public offering reflect the results of BW Ultimate Parent, LLC.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-looking Statements
Some information in this press release contains
forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical facts
contained in this press release may be forward-looking statements. Statements regarding our future results of operations and financial
position, business strategy and plans and objectives of management for future operations, including, among others, statements regarding
the expected timing of the sale of our Iowa and Kansas stores, 2026 guidance, including with respect to same-store sales growth, Adjusted
EBITDA, capital expenditures and new store openings, expected growth and future capital expenditures, are forward-looking statements.
In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms, such as “may,” “will,” “would,”
“should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “could,” “intends,”
“targets,” “projects,” “contemplates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,”
“potential,” or “continue,” or the negative of these terms or other similar expressions. Accordingly, we caution
you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions, and uncertainties
that are difficult to predict. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable
as of the date made, actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking
statements.
There are or will be important factors that could
cause actual results to differ materially from those indicated in these forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the
following: volatility in the global prices and availability of oil and petroleum products and general economic conditions, including interest
rates; our ability to maintain an adequate pipeline of suitable locations for new stores; our ability to successfully implement our rapid
growth strategy; risks associated with new store development; our ability to successfully recruit, hire, and retain qualified personnel;
our dependence upon market acceptance by consumers and our failure to offer products that meet our existing customers’ taste and
attract new customers; changes to wage regulations and other employment and labor laws; changes in demand for fuel-based modes of transportation
and advancements in technologies, such as hybrid and electric vehicles, that significantly reduce fuel consumption related to the public’s
current general approach with regard to climate change and the effects of greenhouse gas emissions, among others; our dependence on a
limited number of suppliers for the majority of our gross fuel purchases and merchandise; operational hazards and risks normally associated
with marketing of petroleum products; hazards and risks relating to the physical effects of weather and climate change; changes to tobacco
legislation, potential court rulings affecting the tobacco industry, campaigns to discourage smoking, increases in tobacco and nicotine
products taxes and wholesale cost increases of tobacco and nicotine products; the significant influence that Brookwood Financial Partners,
LLC continues to have over us, including control over decisions that require the approval of stockholders; and the other important factors
discussed under “Risk Factors” in our final prospectus dated April 21, 2026, as filed with the SEC on April 23,
2026 pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Prospectus”) and in our other filings with the SEC.
The foregoing factors should not be construed
as exhaustive and should be read together with the other cautionary statements included in this press release. If one or more events related
to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ
materially from what we anticipate. Many of the important factors that will determine these results are beyond our ability to control
or predict. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks
only as of the date on which it is made, and, except as otherwise required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to publicly update
or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.
