CASY vs KGC Comparison

Founded in 1968, Casey's General Stores has become the third-largest convenience store retailer in the United States, operating nearly 3,000 locations across 19 states, primarily in the Midwest. In fiscal 2026, the company generated $17.6 billion in revenue from fuel (60% of sales), grocery and general merchandise (26%), prepared food and dispensed beverages (10%), and areas like wholesale fuel distribution (4%). Casey's footprint skews rural, with over 70% of stores in areas with fewer than 20,000 residents.

Kinross Gold is a Canada-based gold producer, producing roughly 2 million gold equivalent ounces in 2025. The company had about a decade of gold reserves at the end of 2025. It operates mines in the Americas and West Africa after selling its low-cost Russian operations in 2022 in response to the invasion of Ukraine. Kinross has historically used acquisitions to fuel expansion into new regions and production growth. In 2022, Kinross purchased the Great Bear project in Canada. If developed as we think likely, it could produce an average of more than 500,000 ounces of gold per year for at least a decade, with its unit cash costs likely in the first quartile of the industry cost curve. Though Great Bear's production is likely to be replacement ounces for falling volumes at other mines.
