Getty Realty Corp. is a real estate company that owns and leases properties used by gas stations, convenience stores, and car washes across the United States. Its tenants are operators of fuel and convenience retail businesses, including well-known brands like BP, Mobil, and GetGo. Getty is one of the largest publicly traded landlords focused specifically on this type of roadside, single-tenant retail property.

Getty makes money by collecting rent from the businesses that lease its properties, operating as a real estate investment trust (REIT), which means it is required to pay out most of its income to shareholders as dividends. The company owns roughly 1,100 properties spread across more than 40 states, with concentration in the Northeast. Its long-term net leases — where tenants pay most property expenses — provide stable, predictable cash flow and act as a key competitive advantage. The main risk Getty faces is the long-term shift toward electric vehicles, which could reduce demand for traditional gas station properties over time.

Growth + cash flow

Getty Realty is a rare growth stock that's already generating positive cash flow while growing at 11%. The Winston Score doesn't fully credit this transition from "burner" to "earner."

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
