What these concentrations mean together

updated 2026-07-06

ARKO's concentration profile is dominated by its structural reliance on fuel: fuel sales made up approximately 79% of total revenues and about 47% of the company's combined fuel, merchandise and other income margin — a high-size exposure that is structural rather than counterparty-specific, tracking broader energy price and demand cycles more than any single relationship. Within merchandise, cigarettes and other tobacco products accounted for approximately 38% of total merchandise revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025, a medium-size structural exposure tied to a product category facing its own secular headwinds. On the supply side, the company sources merchandise inventory from one primary wholesale distributor, Core-Mark, alongside roughly 810 direct store delivery supplier distributors — a medium-size dependency exposure. Together, these three exposures net out to a business whose top line is fundamentally a fuel-price and consumer-tobacco story first, with a secondary supply-chain dependency on a single primary distributor that could compound disruption if fuel or tobacco trends were already under pressure. None of the three reads as an idiosyncratic single-customer risk; instead, the concentration is macro- and category-driven, with Core-Mark as the one relationship-based risk to watch.

Concentration counts reflect items disclosed in each peer’s most recent 10-K; disclosed-size classification uses TrendMatrix’s internal 10-K extraction taxonomy.

Concentration disclosures are extracted verbatim from SEC 10-K filings; the disclosed-size classification and the synthesis above are engine-derived. Size reflects how large each exposure is against fixed share thresholds (HIGH >50%, MEDIUM 25–50%, LOW <25% or an explicit diversification statement), not a judgment of how dangerous it is, and is not a buy/sell rating, a price target, or a view on the stock.
