GuruFocus Profitability Rank ranks how profitable a company is and how likely the company’s business will stay that way. It is based on these factors:

1. Operating Margin
2. Trend of the Operating Margin (5-year average). The company with an uptrend profit margin has a higher rank.
••3. Consistency of the profitability
4. Piotroski F-Score
5. Predictability Rank•

The maximum rank is 10. A rank of 7 or higher means a higher profitability and may stay that way. A rank of 3 or lower indicates that the company has had trouble to make a profit.

Profitability Rank is not directly related to the Financial Strength Rank. But if a company is consistently profitable, its financial strength will be stronger.

Business Description

Casey's General Stores, Inc. was incorporated in Iowa in 1967. The Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries operate convenience stores under the name 'Casey's General Store', 'HandiMart' and 'Just Diesel' in nine Midwestern states, mainly Iowa, Missouri, and Illinois. The stores carry a broad selection of food (including freshly prepared foods such as pizza, donuts, and sandwiches), beverages, tobacco products, health and beauty aids, automotive products, and other nonfood items. In addition, all stores offer gasoline for sale on a self-service basis. It seeks to meet the needs of residents of smaller towns by combining features of both general store and convenience store operations. The Company currently owns most of its real estate, including the Casey's Distribution Center and Corporate Headquarters facility. Casey's Retail Company operates stores in Illinois, Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska, and South Dakota; it also holds the rights to the Casey's trademark and trade name. Each Casey's General Store typically carries over 3,000 food and nonfood items. Many of the products offered are those generally found in a supermarket. All Casey's General Stores offer gasoline or gasohol for sale on a self-service basis. The gasoline and gasohol generally are sold under the Casey's name. All Casey's General Stores remain open at least sixteen hours per day, seven days a week.
