Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
This Form 8-K is being furnished solely to correct one typographical error in slide 80 of the Global Partners LP, 2014 Investor Day Presentation, November 11, 2014 (the “Investor Presentation”). The third quarter 2014 product margin for the Gasoline Distribution and Station Operations segment in the third bullet on Slide 80 was incorrectly reported up $27.8 million year-over-year. The bullet with the corrected amount is as follows:
- Q3 2014 GDSO product margin up $15.5M YOY due to strong fuel margins and increased contribution from station operations
Global Partners LP (the “Partnership”) has posted the corrected version of the Investor Presentation in the “Presentations” section of its website at www.globalp.com.
The information furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 in this report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, unless the Partnership specifically states that the information is to be considered “filed” under the Exchange Act or incorporates it by reference into a filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act.
