I had recently wrote about my second best performing investment the Butler National Corporation ($BUKS). While writing that article the stock had given me a 108% gain in under 10 months. You can read that piece here. Today I will be writing about my best performing investment. I’m going to write about where the company is on their business turn around as well as walking you guys through why I think this business is still a buy. Here’s some key stats on this food distribution company.

  • This company is a middle man that distributes grocery products it receives from producers to grocery stores around the country.

  • This company also operates a chain of 75 grocery stores.

  • The company’s net sales for fiscal 2025 year-to-date increased approximately 4.6% from fiscal 2024.

  • Their Gross profit increased $45 million, or 2.2%, to $2.11 billion for 2025, compared to $2.06 billion for fiscal 2024.

  • The company’s operating expenses increased by $13 million but decreased as a percentage of sales by 0.5%.

  • This led to the company’s operating income increasing by $32 million to $32 million in 2025, compared to $0 in 2024 year-to-date.

  • The company saw an adjusted EBITDA growth of over 13% and significant improvement in year-over-year free cash flow.

  • This led to a net loss of $0.39 in 2025, compared to a net loss of $0.92 for fiscal 2024.

  • A discounted cash flow I recently ran on the company suggests that the stock has an 101% upside to it.
