Biggest thing to watch: the price is not yet in a clear uptrend, so timing is the risk more than the business. ## What is the Yesway share price today? Yesway, Inc.'s share price was $25.14 at the close on 3 November 2026. Since its first close in our records, on 24 April 2026, it has traded between $19 and $27, and at that close it sat 76% of the way up from that low. Over the past 13 weeks it has done better than the S&P 500, and it has stayed ahead for 4 weeks in a row. Over the last 6 months the share price moved +16% while the S&P 500 moved +6%, so it is ahead of the index over that whole period. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Yesway pay? Yesway, Inc. pays no dividend. In the last 12 reported quarters it declared no dividend per share, so there is no payout history to chart and no yield to show. Companies like this usually keep their earnings in the business, so the cash-flow sections show where that cash goes. ## Which stock lists is Yesway on? Yesway is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Yesway profitable? Yesway, Inc. earned $6.6 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, −72.8% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY25 profit was $54.0 M. Over 5 years profit has grown 15.2% a year on average. That is 0.8% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $24.2 M. 2 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY25 profit was $54.0 M (+131.2% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +38.5% on a year earlier and the margin moved −0.2 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +84.6% and revenue +18.0%. Profit is growing faster than sales: fixed costs are spread over more sales, so each extra dollar of revenue adds more to profit. ## How much revenue does Yesway make, and is it growing? Yesway, Inc. reported $854 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +38.5% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 4th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 5 years it has grown 12.3% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $2.7 B. The last four reported quarters add to $2.9 B. FY25 revenue was $2.7 B, +5.8% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +18.0% on average, against 12.3% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +17.9%, against +14.7% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating); profit over the last 12 months grew +137.8%, against +82.9% a year (accelerating). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Yesway keep? Yesway, Inc.'s operating margin was 5.8% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 0.2 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between 3.4% and 6.7%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −0.2 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed −3.3 points. So the drop came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is Yesway's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 255% of Yesway, Inc.'s reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $147 M of operating cash against $54.0 M of profit. After $98.0 M of spending on assets, $49.2 M was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Yesway's cash go? Yesway, Inc. does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent $387 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 4.8% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $387 M over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is Yesway's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Yesway, Inc.'s P/E is 9.6×, with too little history to compare. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. In short: there is too little history to say whether the multiple is high or low for this company, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Yesway business getting better or worse? Yesway, Inc.'s business is giving mixed signals. Growth has been steadily positive, but ROCE at 4.9% is below the 15% level needed to call it steady growth. This is based on 10 quarters of 3 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: when the lines disagree, each line above matters more than any single label. This reading has some gaps: at least one line is short, or the return line is not the quarterly series, so treat it with a little more caution. ## How much does Yesway earn on its capital? Yesway, Inc. earned a ROE of 9% in FY25. That is up from a low of 4% in FY24. We cannot compare its return on capital used with its cost of capital from the data we have. It comes from a 2.0% net margin and 1.37× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 2.0% net margin × 1.37× asset turnover × 3.34× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 9.2% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The 9.6% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at 8.0%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Yesway have too much debt? Yesway, Inc. has total debt of $952 M against shareholder equity of $855 M as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 1.11× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 2.50 in FY19 to 1.68 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Yesway shareholding pattern? 12.2% of Yesway, Inc.'s tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so a large group of traders is betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 6.3 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Yesway from balance-sheet trouble? For Yesway, Inc., the Z-score is 2.12. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is in the grey area between the two. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 2.12 is in the grey area, neither clearly safe nor clearly in trouble. ## How does Yesway rank in its industry? 59.8 out of 100, rank 2 of 10 in Grocery Stores, with 51% of the evidence available. Yesway, Inc. scores 59.8 out of 100 against the 10 companies it is compared with in Grocery Stores, ranking 2. Some evidence is missing, so the score is pulled toward the middle on purpose. The three scored parts add up to the total exactly: 31.4 + 14.8 + 13.6 = 59.8 (no relative-strength reading this week; its 20 points are shared across the other three). This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Yesway compared with? Yesway ranks 2 of 10 Grocery Stores companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 59.8 out of 100. 1.

Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Sep 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.

Biggest thing to watch: the price is not yet in a clear uptrend, so timing is the risk more than the business. On price, this page treats a rise as over when the share price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row (as of 3 November 2026). ### Is Yesway a stock worth studying right now? What the numbers show: Yesway, Inc.'s share price, valuation and earnings point in different directions. The next one or two quarters should make it clearer.
