Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
On July 18, 2016, CST updated the monthly fuel margin data and benchmark wholesale conventional gasoline prices in the Investors section of its website under the tab “Historical Fuel Margins” to include the most recent monthly historical data.
As more fully described in the Company’s Form 10-K and Form 10-Q filings, approximately half of CST’s gross profit is derived from the sale of motor fuel. CST typically experiences lower motor fuel gross profits in periods when the cost of motor fuel increases, and higher motor fuel gross profits in periods when the cost of motor fuel declines rapidly or is more volatile. The volatility of crude oil and wholesale motor fuel prices impacts CST’s motor fuel gross profits.
The following tables present the average monthly fuel margin data and benchmark wholesale conventional gasoline prices for June 2016:
