Recent press releases and 8-K filings for MUSA.
- Murphy USA provided 2026 EBITDA guidance of $1 billion and reiterated its long-term EBITDA target of $1.2 billion by 2028, with growth driven by sustaining 50+ new-to-industry (NTI) stores annually (each class expected to generate $35 million-$40 million of EBITDA at maturity) and executing initiatives, though a more volatile fuel environment is needed to reach the higher target.
