  • Murphy quarterly results reveal increase in both margins and volumes

    The quarterly financial report from Murphy USA, Inc. showed an increase in both retail fuel margins and volumes for the three months ended September 30, 2014.

    Retail fuel margins hit $0.175 per gallon for the quarter, up from $0.148 per gallon year over year. Retail fuel volumes were up 2.7% year over year to 281,185 gallons per store per month. Combining both increases yielded a fuel margin dollar per store per month of $49,347, an increase of 2.7%.

    The NACS industry research states that the average c-store sells approximately 123,000 gallons per month. That means Murphy is selling more than double the average.

    Skyline Products and Murphy Oil have an exclusive license agreement for the PriceAdvantage fuel price management software. The patent is based on the PriceAdvantage software determining the price of a fuel product, sending those price changes to the store including the electronic price signs, the POS, and the pumps, and then verifying the completion of the change. This rapid closed loop fuel pricing software process is key to the Murphy Oil fuel price management success.
