Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Amounts in millions except share and per share information and where otherwise noted) June 30, 2026 and 2025 (Unaudited) (1) Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Fastenal Company and subsidiaries (the 'Company,' 'Fastenal,' 'we,' 'our,' or 'us') have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information. They do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for a complete set of financial statements. However, except as described herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in our consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Percentages, values, and dollar change calculations, which are based on non-rounded dollar values, may not be able to be recalculated or footed using the dollar values in this document due to the rounding of those dollar values. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (DISE), which specifies new disclosure requirements, including the composition of certain income statement expense line items (such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, and 'other expenses') and a separate disclosure for selling expenses. This change is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027, however, early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2024-03 will have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosures and anticipate adoption in 2027. (2) Revenue Revenue Recognition Net sales include products and shipping and handling charges, net of estimates for product returns and any related sales incentives. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring products. All revenue is recognized when or as we satisfy our performance obligations under the contract. We recognize revenue by transferring control of the promised products to the customer, which primarily occurs when products are delivered or picked up by the customer. We recognize revenue for shipping and handling charges at the time the products are delivered to or picked up by the customer. We estimate product returns based on historical return rates and lag. Using probability assessments, we estimate sales incentives expected to be paid over the term of the contract. The majority of our contracts have a single performance obligation and are short-term in nature. Sales taxes and value-added taxes in foreign jurisdictions that are collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and therefore are excluded from net sales. 6 Table of Contents FASTENAL COMPANY Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Amounts in millions except share and per share information and where otherwise noted) June 30, 2026 and 2025 (Unaudited) Disaggregation of Revenue Revenues are attributable to countries based on the selling location from which the sale occurred.

The following table presents the cash dividends either paid previously or declared by our board of directors for future payment on a per share basis during 2026 and 2025: 2026 2025 First quarter $ 0.240 $ 0.215 Second quarter 0.240 0.220 Third quarter 0.260 0.220 Fourth quarter 0.220 Total $ 0.740 $ 0.875 Stock Options The following tables summarize the details of options granted under our stock option plans that were outstanding as of June 30, 2026, and the assumptions used to value those grants. All such grants were effective at the close of business on the grant date.

Each option will terminate approximately 10 years after the grant date. The fair value of each share-based option is estimated on the grant date using a Black-Scholes valuation method that uses the assumptions listed above. The risk-free interest rate is based on the United States (U.S.) Treasury rate over the expected life of the option at the time of grant. The expected life is the average length of time over which we expect the employee groups will exercise their options, net of cancellations, which is based on historical experience with similar grants. The dividend yield is estimated over the expected life of the option based on our current dividend payout, historical dividends paid, and expected future cash dividends. Expected stock volatility is based on the movement of our stock price over the most recent historical period equivalent to the expected life of the option. Compensation expense equal to the grant date fair value is recognized for all of these awards over the vesting period. The stock-based compensation expense for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was $ 5.2 and $ 4.1 , respectively, and for the second quarter of 2026 and 2025 was $ 2.6 and $ 2.0 , respectively. Unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to outstanding unvested stock options as of June 30, 2026 was $ 25.2 and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.83 years. Any future changes in estimated forfeitures will impact this amount. Net Income Per Share The following tables present a reconciliation of the denominators used in the computation of basic and diluted net income per share and a summary of the options to purchase shares of common stock which were excluded from the diluted net income per share calculation because they were anti-dilutive: Six-month Period Three-month Period Reconciliation 2026 2025 2026 2025 Basic weighted average shares outstanding 1,147,852,954 1,147,216,127 1,147,550,923 1,147,492,218 Weighted shares assumed upon exercise of stock options 2,737,322 2,610,956 2,730,121 2,608,433 Diluted weighted average shares outstanding 1,150,590,276 1,149,827,083 1,150,281,044 1,150,100,651 Six-month Period Three-month Period Summary of Anti-dilutive Options Excluded 2026 2025 2026 2025 Options to purchase shares of common stock 1,294,575 1,293,470 1,301,767 1,203,422 Weighted average exercise prices of options $ 41.00 35.70 $ 41.00 36.00 Any dilutive impact summarized above related to periods when the average market price of our stock exceeded the exercise price of the potentially dilutive stock options then outstanding. 9 Table of Contents FASTENAL COMPANY Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Amounts in millions except share and per share information and where otherwise noted) June 30, 2026 and 2025 (Unaudited) (4) Income Taxes We file income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, all states, and various local and foreign jurisdictions. We are no longer subject to income tax examinations by taxing authorities for taxable years before 2022 in the case of U.S. federal examinations, and with limited exceptions, before 2020 in the case of foreign, state, and local examinations. During the first six months of 2026, there were no material changes in unrecognized tax benefits. (5) Operating Leases Certain operating leases for pick-up trucks contain residual value guarantee provisions which would generally become due at the expiration of the operating lease agreement if the fair value of the leased vehicles is less than the guaranteed residual value. The aggregate residual value guarantee related to these leases was approximately $ 124.2 . We believe the likelihood of funding the guarantee obligation under any provision of the operating lease agreements is remote. (6) Debt Commitments Credit Facility, Notes Payable, and Commitments Debt obligations and letters of credit outstanding at the end of each period consisted of the following: Average Interest Rate at June 30, 2026 Debt Outstanding Maturity Date June 30, 2026 December 31, 2025 Unsecured revolving credit facility 4.62 % June 18, 2031 $ 20.0 — Senior unsecured promissory notes payable, Series E 2.72 % May 15, 2027 50.0 50.0 Senior unsecured promissory notes payable, Series G 2.13 % June 24, 2026 — 25.0 Senior unsecured promissory notes payable, Series H 2.50 % June 24, 2030 50.0 50.0 Total 120.0 125.0 Less: Current portion of debt ( 70.0 ) ( 25.0 ) Long-term debt $ 50.0 100.0 Outstanding letters of credit under unsecured revolving credit facility - contingent obligation $ 0.2 29.7 Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility On June 18, 2026, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended and restated, the Credit Agreement) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent for the lenders party thereto, which amended and restated our existing unsecured revolving Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated September 28, 2022, as amended. The Credit Agreement was amended and restated to, among other things: (i) renew the aggregate revolving credit commitment under the Credit Agreement, increasing the uncommitted accordion option amount (as further described below), (ii) extend the revolving credit maturity date to June 18, 2031, (iii) modify the financial covenants to (x) remove the consolidated EBITDA covenant and (y) add an interest coverage ratio covenant with which we are required to comply, (iv) modify the pricing applicable to the commitment fee and borrowings under the Credit Agreement with an applicable margin based on our consolidated total leverage ratio, and (v) make certain other covenant and event of default changes. Under the Credit Agreement, we have an $ 835.0 committed unsecured revolving credit facility (the Credit Facility) with an uncommitted accordion option to increase the aggregate revolving commitment by an additional $ 500.0 for a possible total commitment amount, if the uncommitted accordion option is fully exercised, of $ 1,335.0 . The Credit Facility includes a committed letter of credit subfacility of $ 55.0 . During the first quarter of 2026, we replaced the majority of the related letter of credit contingent obligation with a surety bond arrangement, which would only be utilized in the event of our non‑performance under the related insurance obligations. Any borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility for which we have the ability and intent to pay using cash within the next 12 months will be classified as a current liability. The Credit Facility contains certain financial and other covenants, and our right to borrow under the Credit Facility is conditioned upon, among other things, our compliance with these covenants. We were in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2026. 10 Table of Contents FASTENAL COMPANY Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Amounts in millions except share and per share information and where otherwise noted) June 30, 2026 and 2025 (Unaudited) Borrowings under the Credit Facility generally bear interest at a rate per annum equal to Daily Simple SOFR or Term SOFR (at our election) plus an applicable margin that fluctuates between 1.00 % and 1.375 % based on our consolidated total leverage ratio as of the end of each of our fiscal quarters, with an applicable margin of 1.00 % applying to any outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2026. We pay a commitment fee for the unused portion of the Credit Facility, which fluctuates between 0.10 % and 0.175 % per annum based on our consolidated total leverage ratio as of the end of each of our fiscal quarters, with a 0.10 % commitment fee applicable to the unused portion of the Credit Facility as of June 30, 2026. Senior Unsecured Promissory Notes Payable On June 18, 2026, we amended our existing Master Note Agreement dated July 20, 2016 (as amended, the Master Note Agreement), with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, NYL Investors LLC, and PGIM, Inc. and certain other purchasers under the Master Note Agreement. The Master Note Agreement was amended to, among other things: (i) reduce the aggregate principal amount of notes that may be outstanding from time to time under the Master Note Agreement from an aggregate principal amount of up to $ 900.0 to $ 600.0 , (ii) release PGIM, Inc. as a purchaser and investor group representative under the Master Note Agreement, (iii) extend the issuance period to June 18, 2031, (iv) modify the financial covenants to (x) remove the consolidated EBITDA covenant and (y) add an interest coverage ratio covenant with which we are required to comply, and (v) make certain covenant and event of default changes. We have issued senior unsecured promissory notes under the Master Note Agreement in the aggregate principal amount of $ 100.0 as of June 30, 2026. The principal amount of notes that may be outstanding under the Master Note Agreement is $ 600.0 ; however, none of the institutional investors party to that agreement are committed to purchase notes thereunder. There is no amortization of these notes prior to their maturity date and interest is payable quarterly. The notes currently issued under our Master Note Agreement, including the maturity date and fixed interest rate per annum of each series of note, are contained in the table above. The Master Note Agreement contains certain financial and other covenants and we were in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2026. (7) Segment Reporting Each geographic region (U.S., Canada, Mexico, Central & South America, Europe, Asia, and SE Asia) is engaged in business activities for which it may earn sales and incur expenses. Discrete financial information is available at the geographic region level through our internal Return on Asset (ROA) reporting. The ROA reporting is a selling location income statement with an ROA calculation and the results are compiled by geographic region. ROA pre-tax profit measures financial performance and drives compensation programs. Our Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) is a group consisting of our Chief Executive Officer and President/Chief Sales Officer. We consider each geographic region to be an operating segment. The CODM regularly reviews ROA pre-tax profit to make decisions about the allocation of resources at the geographic region level. Operating segment significant expense categories and amounts are not regularly reviewed by or provided to our CODM. Segment expenses represent the difference between net sales and ROA pre-tax profit and consist of cost of sales and selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses. However, our CODM reviews consolidated expense information to manage the operations of the business. Considering our operating segments outside of the U.S. individually represent less than 10% of our total operating segment net sales, ROA pre-tax profit, and ROA assets, we do not consider them reportable segments. Therefore, we report the results of our one reportable segment (U.S.) below. Further details on our significant accounting policies can be found in Note 1 of our most recently filed annual report on Form 10-K, which are applied companywide. Our segment measure of profit or loss is ROA pre-tax profit and our measure of assets is ROA assets. ROA pre-tax profit is not a financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP and excludes inter-company transactions.
