The 2020 Casey's General Stores, Inc. annual shareholders' meeting will be held at 9:00 a.m. Central Time on September 2, 2020 (the "Annual Meeting"). Due to the ongoing developments, concerns and uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, the Annual Meeting will be a virtual meeting only, conducted via live webcast at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/CASY2020.

To participate in the virtual Annual Meeting, you will need the 16-digit control number included on your Notice, proxy card or voting instruction form. The meeting webcast will begin promptly at 9:00 a.m., Central Time, and we encourage you to access the meeting prior to the start time. We are committed to ensuring that shareholders will be afforded the same rights and opportunities to participate as they would at an in-person meeting, and as such, you will be able to vote your shares electronically during the virtual annual meeting and submit questions on the virtual meeting website.

We will also make the Annual Meeting accessible to anyone else who is interested, including team members and other constituents, by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/CASY2020; however, non-shareholders guests will not be permitted to vote or submit questions at the Annual Meeting.

The Company's principal executive office mailing address is P.O. Box 3001, One SE Convenience Blvd., Ankeny, Iowa 50021.

This Proxy Statement and the proxy card are first being provided and/or made available on or about July 22, 2020 to each holder of record of common stock, no par value per share ("Common Stock"), of the Company at the close of business on July 6, 2020—the "Record Date".

Table of Contents

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Securities Entitled to Vote

The only securities eligible to be voted at the Annual Meeting are shares of Common Stock. Only holders of Common Stock at the close of business on the Record Date—July 6, 2020—are entitled to vote. Each share of Common Stock represents one vote, and all shares vote together as a single class. There were 36,906,773 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the Record Date.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Quorum; Vote Required

The presence in person or by proxy of shareholders entitled to cast a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast at the Annual Meeting constitutes a quorum. Shareholders are entitled to one vote per share. Shares of Common Stock held by shareholders abstaining from voting but otherwise present at the meeting in person or by proxy ("abstentions") are included in determining whether a quorum is present. Broker shares that are not voted on a particular proposal because the broker does not have discretionary voting power for that proposal and have not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner ("broker non-votes") are also included in determining whether a quorum is present.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" How to Vote; Submitting Your Proxy; Revoking Your Proxy

Your vote is very important to the Company. Whether or not you plan to attend the virtual Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote your shares today. You may vote your shares by either:

Table of Contents

If you hold shares through the Company's 401(k) Plan (the "401K Plan"), such shares are not registered in your name, and your name will not appear in the Company's register of shareholders. Instead, your shares are registered in the name of a trust, which is administered by Principal Trust Company (the "Trustee"). Only the Trustee will be able to vote your shares, even if you attend the Annual Meeting virtually. You can direct the voting of the shares allocated to your accounts—including changing or revoking a previously submitted vote—on the Internet, by telephone or by mail on a proxy instruction card, but cannot direct the voting of your 401K Plan shares at the meeting. If voting instructions for shares in the 401K Plan are not returned, those shares will be voted by the Trustee in the same proportion as the shares for which voting instructions are returned by the other participants in the 401K Plan. To allow sufficient time for the Trustee to tabulate the vote of the 401K Plan shares, participant instructions must be received before 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on August 28, 2020.

If you have previously submitted a proxy card, you may change any vote you may have cast by following the instructions on the proxy card to vote by telephone or on the Internet, or by completing, signing, dating and returning a new proxy card, or by attending the virtual Annual Meeting and voting your shares. If your shares are registered in the "street name" of a bank, broker or other holder of

record, please contact the applicable bank, broker or record holder for instructions on how to change or revoke your vote.

Your proxy is revocable. If you are a shareholder of record, after you have submitted your proxy card, you may revoke it by mail before the Annual Meeting by sending a written notice to Julia L. Jackowski, Chief Legal Officer and Secretary, Casey's General Stores, Inc., P.O. Box 3001, One SE Convenience Blvd., Ankeny, Iowa 50021. If you wish to revoke your submitted proxy card and submit new voting instructions by mail, then you must sign, date and mail a new proxy card with your new voting instructions. Please mail any new proxy card in sufficient time for it to be received by the morning of September 2, 2020. If you are a shareholder of record and you voted your proxy card by telephone or on the Internet, you may revoke your submitted proxy and/or submit new voting instructions by that same method, which must be received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on September 1, 2020. You also may revoke your proxy card by attending the virtual Annual Meeting and voting your shares. Attending the virtual Annual Meeting without taking one of the actions above will not revoke your proxy. If you are a beneficial owner, or you hold your shares in "street name" as described below, please contact your bank, broker or other holder of record for instructions on how to change or revoke your vote.

If your shares are not registered in your name but in the "street name" of a bank, broker or other holder of record (a "Nominee"), your name will not appear in the Company's register of shareholders. Your Nominee, as the record holder of your shares, is required to vote those shares in accordance with your instructions. If you do not give instructions to your Nominee, your Nominee will be entitled to vote the shares with respect to "discretionary" items but will not be permitted to vote the shares with respect to "non-discretionary" items—those shares are treated as broker non-votes. Proposal 1—election of directors, and Proposal 3—executive officer compensation, are "non-discretionary" items for any Nominee holding shares on your behalf. As a result, if your shares are held in "street name" and you do not provide instructions as to how your shares are to be voted, your Nominee will not be able to vote your shares on these proposals. Note that even if you attend the virtual Annual Meeting, you cannot vote the shares that are held by your Nominee unless you have a proxy from your Nominee. If you do not provide instructions to your Nominee and your Nominee does not vote your shares on your behalf with respect to Proposal 2—ratification of the selection of the independent registered public accounting firm, which is a "discretionary" item, your shares will not be counted in determining whether a quorum is present for the Annual Meeting. If your Nominee exercises its "discretionary" authority to vote your shares on Proposal 2, your shares will be counted in determining whether a quorum is present for all matters presented at the Annual Meeting. We urge you to provide instructions to your Nominee so that your votes may be counted on these important matters. Please contact your Nominee for the deadlines for submission of your vote and for instructions on how to change or revoke your vote.

The Board is committed to building and maintaining a sound corporate governance structure that is the foundation of integrity, shareholder transparency and strong financial performance.

newly-created directorship is to serve until the next annual shareholders' meeting following their election and until their successor is elected and qualified.

The Company is incorporated in Iowa. Until January 1, 2019, under the Iowa Business Corporation Act, the Board was required to be classified. However, starting with last year's annual meeting, Iowa Code section 490.806B required that the Board begin a phased declassification over a three-year period. In particular, Iowa Code section 490.806B requires that the staggered terms of the previously-designated "Class I", "Class II" and "Class III" directors elected or appointed prior to January 1, 2019 cease at the expiration of their then current terms, and that the terms of directors elected or appointed after January 1, 2019 expire at the next annual shareholders' meeting following their election or appointment. As a result:

Therefore, by the 2021 annual shareholders' meeting, all of the Company's director nominees will stand for annual election, and directors will no longer be assigned to a "class".

GOVERNANCE OF THE COMPANY

The Company is committed to strong corporate governance, which we believe promotes the long-term interests of our shareholders, strengthens Board and management accountability and fosters strong Company performance.

To help ensure the Company meets this commitment, the Board has approved Corporate Governance Guidelines (the "Guidelines") to address key governance practices and identify the framework for the operations of the Board and its committees. A copy of the current Guidelines is posted on the Company's website—www.caseys.com—under the "Investor Relations" link at the bottom of each page.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee monitors developments in law and governance practices, including but not limited to those set forth by the Investor Stewardship Group, and recommends to the Board appropriate changes to the Guidelines and other governance practices. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also maintains a focus on "ESG" (environmental, social, governance) issues, as they relate to the Company's business and industry.

Certain highlights of our corporate governance practices include the following (items with a "*" are described in more detail below the respective table):

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND ITS COMMITTEES

Members of the Board are kept informed of the Company's business through discussions with the CEO, the Company's senior management and other key employees, by reviewing materials provided to them, and by participating in regular Board and committee meetings, including closed and executive sessions. Between meetings, directors are provided with information regarding the Company's operations and are frequently consulted on an informal basis with respect to pending matters.

Directors are expected to attend all Board meetings, meetings of the committees on which they serve and each annual shareholders' meeting. The Board held fourteen meetings during the 2020 fiscal year. Each incumbent director attended at least 90% or more of the aggregate number of Board meetings and committee meetings on which the director served during the 2020 fiscal year, and all directors attended last year's annual shareholders' meeting.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Director Independence

In making independence determinations, the Board observes the criteria for independence set forth in the Nasdaq Listing Standards. Consistent with these criteria, the Board considers all relationships and material transactions between the Company and the director-nominees (and any affiliated companies), and has affirmatively determined that all of its current directors, other than Mr. Rebelez (as the CEO), are "independent" within the meaning of the Nasdaq Listing Standards. As such, a substantial majority of the Board is independent, as so defined.

In reaching this conclusion, the Board considered that both Mr. Horak and Ms. Heiden held executive leadership positions within the Wells Fargo organization during their careers, and concluded that each of them bring distinct and valuable skills to the Board, and that their prior employment experiences would not interfere with their exercise of independent judgment in carrying out their responsibilities as directors.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Board Committees

In September 2019, the Board, acting on a recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, amended its Bylaws to eliminate the requirement for, and subsequently dissolved, the Executive Committee. As such, the Bylaws now provide for three standing committees of the Board:

In addition, the Bylaws authorize the Board to establish other committees for selected purposes, pursuant to which the Risk Committee has been established.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" The Board's Role in Risk Oversight

Risk assessment and risk management are the responsibility of the CEO and the Company's management. The Board retains oversight responsibility over the Company's key strategic risks, information security risks and regulatory compliance risks. The Board meets regularly with the Company's executive officers to discuss strategy and risks facing the Company, and each quarter receives presentations from the executive officers and other key employees on business operations, financial results and strategic issues, including the identification, assessment and management of critical risks and management's risk mitigation strategies. In addition, annual strategic planning sessions are held to discuss strategies, key challenges and risks and opportunities for the Company. An Enterprise Risk Manager reports to the Chief Legal Officer and leads a working group comprised of senior management and other key employees to provide recommendations to the CEO for further action, with periodic progress reports on the same being provided to the Risk Committee and the Board. Areas of focus include, but are not limited to, cybersecurity, food safety, competitive, economic, operational, financial, personnel, legal, regulatory, compliance, health, safety and environment, political and reputational risks.

The Board committees also provide assistance to the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities in certain areas of risk. The Risk Committee's responsibility is to provide oversight and to engage management and the Board with regard to the Company's principal operating and business risks. The Audit Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to financial reporting, internal controls, and financial risks. The Compensation Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to the management of risks arising from the Company's compensation policies and practices, including overseeing the development of stock

ownership guidelines, the annual incentive compensation program and clawback policies, in addition to CEO and executive officer succession planning risks. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to the management of risks associated with Board and committee membership, structure and succession, and the monitoring of corporate governance issues, and the development of recommendations to address evolving best practices in those areas. All of these committees report back to the full Board as to each committee's activities and matters discussed and reviewed at the committee meetings. In addition, all directors are encouraged to participate in external director education courses to keep apprised of current issues, including evolving areas of risk.

Regarding COVID-19, the Company has assembled a cross-functional "task-force," which includes executive officers and team members from a variety of departments/roles, for the continuous monitoring of the impact of COVID-19 on our team members and business operations and to implement measures to manage team member and guest safety, liquidity and other risks. The full Board is actively engaged in overseeing these risk management strategies and initiatives, and is working closely with management during this unprecedented situation to maintain information flow and timely review of issues, including mitigation of risk, arising from the pandemic.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The focus of this discussion and analysis is on the Company's compensation philosophies and programs for its named executive officers ("NEOs") for the 2020 fiscal year:

Mr. Walljasper retired as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer on May 31, 2020, and Mr. Bramlage succeeded him as Chief Financial Officer effective June 1, 2020. As a result, Mr. Bramlage is not considered a NEO for the 2020 fiscal year.

In this section, the word "Committee" refers to the Compensation Committee of the Board and "CEO" refers to Mr. Rebelez, unless specifically noted otherwise.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The 2020 fiscal year was a successful year for the Company. It included the addition of several talented individuals to its executive officer team, continued repositioning of the Company strategically, and the delivery of strong financial performance. The Committee continued our executive compensation practices with the fundamental objectives of motivating, attracting and retaining top executive talent and creating alignment with our business strategy and linkage to long-term value creation for our shareholders.

The Committee believes that in 2020 we achieved these objectives and have further positioned the Company for continued future success.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Executive Leadership Changes

At the beginning of the 2020 fiscal year, Mr. Rebelez, a highly-respected and experienced senior executive in the convenience, restaurant and oil industries, was appointed as President and CEO. In addition, the Company added executive officers Tom Brennan as Chief Merchandising Officer and Chad Frazell as Chief Human Resources Officer, each of whom bring a wealth of knowledge and experience in the convenience, restaurant and/or retail industries.

After the end of the 2020 fiscal year, the Company continued to add talented individuals to its executive officer team by appointing Ena Williams as Chief Operating Officer, Steve Bramlage as Chief Financial Officer (as noted above) and Adrian Butler as Chief Information Officer.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Alignment of Executive Compensation with 2020 Company Performance and Values

The Company finished the 2020 fiscal year with strong financial performance, highlighted in-part by a 29% increase in diluted earnings per share (EPS) and a 14.5% increase in stock price—see chart below. These industry leading results overcame the strong headwinds from the unprecedented challenges created by the COVID-19 crisis, which resulted in significant impacts in the Company's operating territory during its fourth fiscal quarter. During this time, the Company focused significant attention on our team members and guests to ensure their safety, health, and economic well-being. Further, we made significant progress on, and achieved excellent results from, our loyalty program and e-commerce platforms, price optimization, unit growth and other strategic initiatives.

Since both our annual and long-term incentive plans (including the performance-based strategic equity award to our CEO) are strongly aligned with our operating and strategic metrics, the most recent payouts for both plans were above target. The 2020 fiscal year annual incentive plan paid out at 113% of target and the 2018-2020 long-term incentive PSUs paid out at 125% of target for the ROIC PSUs, and 195% of target for the TSR PSUs. The Committee was very proud of our attention to the well-being of our team members and guests, and pleased with the operating results and associated payouts.

The Committee firmly believes that the executive compensation program is working as intended.

COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY

During the 2020 fiscal year, the Committee, in conjunction with WTW and through robust discussions with executive leadership, adopted an executive compensation "philosophy," which expanded-upon the Committee's prior objectives of attracting, motivating and retaining executives, emphasizing pay for performance, and focusing on long-term success and shareholder alignment, as follows:

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE BEST PRACTICES

Our executive compensation practices support good governance and discourage excessive risk-taking. The Committee evaluates the program on an ongoing basis to ensure that it is consistent with short-term and long-term goals in combination with strong ties to our strategic direction. Highlights include:

COMMAND=ADD_TABLEWIDTH,"100%" User-specified TAGGED TABLE

What we Do What we Don't Do
✓ Pay for performance : A significant portion of NEO compensation is tied to the Company's
financial performance and is "at-risk". ✓ Reasonable balance between short-term and long-term incentives : A reasonable balance between cash and stock, fixed and variable compensation, short- and long-term compensation, and performance- and service-based
awards, discourages short-term risk taking at the expense of long-term results. Annual grants of RSUs and PSUs vest three years after the grant date based on the achievement of service-based and, in the case of PSUs, performance-based goals. ✓ Multiple performance metrics : Both the annual and long-term incentive programs use multiple performance metrics. This approach discourages excessive risk-taking by removing any incentive to focus on a single performance goal to the detriment of the Company. ✓ Engagement of independent advisor : The Committee directly retains an independent compensation consultant to advise on the executive compensation program and practices. ✓ Clawback policy : Permits the Company to recoup certain compensation payments or equity awards in the event of a
substantial or material restatement of the Company's financials. ✓ Double-trigger protection : The Company maintains change of control agreements with each officer that provide for severance benefits following a change in control only in
the event that such officer is terminated without cause or resigns for good reason. The 2018 Stock Incentive Plan provides similar "double-trigger" protection. ✓ Share ownership requirements : Meaningful requirements are in place for executives based on multiples of
base salary. ý No guaranteed incentive payments : We do not provide guaranteed annual incentive payments to any of our NEOs. Other than base salaries, none of
our NEOs' compensation for the 2020 fiscal year was guaranteed. ý No
excessive benefits or perquisites : The Company does not maintain enhanced health benefits for its executives and does not permit excessive perquisites. ý No tax gross-ups : No tax gross-ups are paid to cover personal income taxes or excise taxes that pertain to
executive or severance benefits. ý No re-pricing of stock
options : Underwater stock options may not be repriced without shareholder approval. Additionally, stock options may only be granted at 100% of fair market value. ý No hedging or pledging of Company stock : The Company prohibits the hedging of Company stock and other
short-term or speculative transactions as well as the pledging of Company stock unless approved in advance by the compliance officer. ý No payment of dividends on equity awards : Equity-based awards granted in the 2020 fiscal year do not pay dividends until the underlying awards become
payable.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Overview

Compensation Objectives for Mr. Rebelez's Appointment as President/CEO: The Committee determined that it would be in the best interests of our shareholders to align Mr. Rebelez's compensation with performance metrics that are key indicators of the Company's success over both short-term and long-term periods and to ensure his compensation is competitive and in-line with market practices. To that end, the Committee, in consultation with WTW, reviewed data with respect to the Compensation Peer Group, other survey data derived from WTW's proprietary U.S. Compensation Data Bank (CDB), and market practice among a larger pool of companies with respect to hiring an external CEO. The Committee considered annual compensation components, including base salary, target annual cash and long-term incentives, as well as severance and change of control benefits, relocation payments and make-whole awards for long-term incentives that Mr. Rebelez was forfeiting from his former employer (aside from his make-whole award, Mr. Rebelez did not receive any sign-on or other inducement awards). The Committee's objective was to create an initial target compensation package (excluding one-time payments) between the 25th and 50th percentiles based on market data, which would be more heavily weighted toward long-term incentive compensation. The Committee also determined it was important to provide Mr. Rebelez with an appropriate relocation package that would allow him to relocate from California to the Des Moines metropolitan area with minimal disruption and financial burden.

The details of Mr. Rebelez's compensation are provided under the applicable components, below.

Overall Pay Mix for NEOs: A significant portion of each NEO's compensation is incentive-based and at-risk, with the only fixed compensation during the 2020 fiscal year being base salary (excluding benefits). The following illustrates the current mix of incentive-based/at-risk compensation, at target, compared to base salary, for the 2020 fiscal year (other than for Mr. Handley; and, for Mr. Rebelez, illustrates his mix both with and without his one-time make-whole and special strategic equity grants):

While the Company does not have a prescribed pay mix that it attempts to achieve for each NEO, the Committee believes that the current mix, which is derived from our compensation philosophy and market data, appropriately balances short-term and long-term business goals and aligns the interests of our NEOs with our shareholders.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Base Salary

The Company pays its executive officers competitive base salaries as one part of a total compensation program to attract and retain talent but does not use base salary increases as the primary means of recognizing talent and performance. Base salaries for the NEOs are determined primarily on the basis of experience, performance, individual responsibilities, impact on the Company, and, as noted below, the Company's performance.

Consistent with past practice, for the 2020 fiscal year, our CEO (at the time, Mr. Handley) reviewed the base salaries of all officers, including our NEOs (other than himself, and Mr. Rebelez), in connection with their performance reviews, with assistance in such review provided by the Human Resources team. Based on each officer's performance review and the review of their base salary information and the competitive compensation analyses provided by WTW, recommendations were developed for the individual base salaries for all of the officers, including our NEOs (other than Mr. Handley and Mr. Rebelez). Those recommendations were then provided to the Committee, who considers those recommendations and recommends the new base salaries to the Board for approval, typically in June of each fiscal year.

The Committee also relies on data provided by WTW with respect to the Compensation Peer Group in order to determine our NEOs' base salaries. Evaluations of individual performance and the importance of each NEO's role have been key in differentiating between executives and applying the competitive compensation analyses. As noted above, the Board determines the CEO's compensation, including base salary, based on the Committee's recommendation.

As illustrated in the table below, the following are the base salaries of the NEOs for the 2019-2020 fiscal years (with such amounts annualized in the event a NEO was not employed for the entire fiscal year):

In the aggregate, the base salaries for the NEOs for the 2020 fiscal year were slightly below (but within 5% of) the market median, consistent with the Company's compensation philosophy.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Annual Incentive Compensation

The NEOs participate in an annual incentive compensation program (the "Annual Incentive Program"), the purpose of which is to reward efforts made during the fiscal year toward the Company's achievement of certain performance goals. The Committee believes that it is important for the executive officers to function as a cohesive team, and therefore establishes the performance goals on the basis of the Company's performance as a whole.

Table of Contents

The annual incentive opportunity for the 2020 fiscal year was based on (i) diluted EPS (50%), (ii) the Company's same-store sales growth and gross profit margin for the fuel category (20%), and (iii) the Company's same-store sales growth and gross profit margin for the inside sales categories (30%). A "circuit breaker" was also utilized, under which a minimum level of diluted EPS was required before any incentive payment could be earned.

The payout at target for each NEO, which was based in-part on market data provided by WTW, is set forth in the table below, and consists of an overall payout range from 0% to 200% of target depending on performance. Below the threshold level, there is no payout. Achievement of threshold levels results in payouts of 50% of the target payout, and achievement of maximum levels results in payouts of 200% of the target payout. All incentive payments earned under the Annual Incentive Program are paid in cash.

In the aggregate, the 2020 fiscal year Annual Incentive Plan target payout percentages were slightly below (but within 10% of) market median annual incentive targets, consistent with the Company's compensation philosophy.

As described below, based on the Company's performance during the 2020 fiscal year, in particular diluted EPS and gross profit margin in the fuel category, the NEOs achieved an Annual Incentive Program payout equal to 113% of their respective target, with the exception of Mr. Handley, who did not participate in the 2020 fiscal year Annual Incentive Program because he separated effective June 23, 2019, prior to the end of the fiscal year.

As noted above, for the 2020 fiscal year, the Company linked the Annual Incentive Program to the following three metrics, each of which is closely tied to the execution of strategic business objectives, the resulting financial performance and the impact on the returns earned by shareholders:

Same-store sales growth and gross profit margin are non-GAAP measures and are calculated as follows:

Each fiscal year, our management team, which includes our NEOs, officers and members of our finance and other teams, prepare its annual strategic business goals and objectives in the form of an annual operating/financial plan for the Company (the "Operating Plan"). The goals and objectives are designed to ensure that our short-term revenue and unit growth objectives are met or exceeded in a manner that is consistent with long-term shareholder value creation. The Chief Financial Officer and his team are closely involved with setting the Company's financial targets that are incorporated into the Operating Plan.

The Committee reviews the Operating Plan and estimates the operational and financial results for the fiscal year that would result from meeting the Operating Plan in terms of same-store sales, gross profit margin and diluted EPS. These pro forma results become the target performance levels for each metric under the Annual Incentive Program. Threshold and maximum performance goals are then set by the Committee, with the intent of providing reasonable upside opportunity and downside risk. Lastly, a "circuit breaker" is established, under which a minimum level of diluted EPS is required before any incentive payment under the Annual Incentive Program may be earned.

In making these determinations, the Committee seeks to adopt target goals that can be achieved with consistent superior performance throughout the year, so that both exceptional results above the target goal and results that are slightly less than the target goal, but which still represent acceptable performance, are rewarded to some extent. The Committee also considers the specific circumstances facing the Company during the year and expectations regarding diluted EPS and Company

(2) Equal to total revenue with respect to same-store fuel sales or same-store inside sales, as applicable, less total cost with respect to such sales (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) divided by gallons sold, in the case of fuel, and by revenue, in the case of inside sales.

As a reflection of the Company's expected continuous performance improvement, the performance goals for the 2020 fiscal year, at target, all exceeded the respective goals established for the 2019 fiscal year, other than the fuel same-store sales category. The reduction in the fuel same-store sales goal reflects the Company's evolving fuel strategy around fuel price optimization, which is a more proactive and balanced approach between fuel gallons sold and fuel gross profit margin, in order to grow profitability, which has partially led to higher fuel margins (which increase is reflected in the above goals, as well) and lower same-store fuel gallons.

As noted above, the potential payout under the Annual Incentive Program for each NEO is represented as a percentage of base salary. The Committee selected varying levels to incorporate differentiation based on job duties and responsibilities. In doing so, the Company has maintained that a significant portion of each NEO's total potential compensation is tied to the financial performance of the Company.

The potential payout at target with respect to the 2020 fiscal year for each NEO is as follows: Mr. Rebelez, 100% ($950,000); Mr. Walljasper, 70% ($429,100); Ms. Jackowski, 65% ($385,125); Mr. Soupene, 70% ($317,240); and, Mr. Jones, 65% ($292,500). The target is then applied against each of the following individual percentages, which correspond to the achievement of the performance goals set forth above.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Long-Term Incentive Compensation

A significant portion of NEO compensation is delivered through equity awards granted annually under the Company's long-term incentive compensation program (the "LTIP").

For the 2020 fiscal year, the NEOs (other than Mr. Handley) were granted 25% of their LTIP award in the form of RSUs and 75% in the form of PSUs, with half of the PSUs subject to performance goals based on return on invested capital ("ROIC") and half subject to performance goals based on TSR relative to the Performance Peer Group. The PSUs result in zero payout if the Company does not achieve its ROIC and relative TSR performance goals over the three-year performance period (as described below) and 200% payout if the Company achieves applicable performance goals at maximum levels. The 25%/75% weighting is based on the competitive compensation analyses performed by WTW and demonstrates alignment between management and shareholder interests.

The combination of time and performance-based awards serves the Company's long-term objectives, as follows:

Both the RSUs and PSUs granted under the 2020 LTIP cliff-vest after three years (i.e., on June 15, 2022, and for Mr. Rebelez, on June 24, 2022), subject to continued employment through such vesting date, except as otherwise set forth in the applicable award agreement.

The value of the RSU and PSU awards at target, which was based in-part on market data provided by WTW, is set forth in the table below.

end of user-specified TAGGED TABLE

The PSUs awarded represent a target amount, with the actual number of shares earned ranging from 0% to 200% of each target, depending on the Company's performance in the ROIC and relative TSR metrics. Below the threshold level, there is no payout with respect to PSUs. Achievement of threshold levels results in payouts of 50% of the target payout, and achievement of maximum levels results in payouts of 200% of the target payout. The target, threshold and maximum performance levels are set to present our NEOs with reasonable upside and downside reward opportunities which align with typical market practices. In the aggregate, the 2020 fiscal year LTIP target payout percentages were below (but within 15% of) market median long-term incentive targets.

As with the Annual Incentive Program, the performance goals under the LTIP are derived from the Operating Plan and approved by the Committee, typically in June of each year. However, for the 2020 fiscal year LTIP, the performance goals for the ROIC PSUs were not approved until December, after the management team had the opportunity to fully evaluate and develop the Company's updated long-term strategic plan with Mr. Rebelez as President and CEO, which plan in-part, was the basis for the ROIC performance goals.

(1) The number of RSUs and the target number of PSUs subject to ROIC goals were determined by dividing the value of the award approved by the Committee by the closing price of a share of Common Stock on the applicable award date ($131.60; and for Mr. Rebelez, $154.01). The target number of PSUs subject to relative TSR, as set forth above, was determined based on a "Monte Carlo" valuation as of the award date. (2) RSUs Subject to Time-Based Goals : These units represent 25% of the overall value of each NEO's LTIP award. The units vest in full on June 15, 2022 (and for Mr. Rebelez, on June 24, 2022), subject to continued employment through the vesting date, except as otherwise set forth in the applicable award agreement and are not subject to achievement of performance goals.

PSUs Subject to ROIC Goals : These units represent 37.5% of the overall value of each NEO's LTIP award, vest in full on June 15, 2022 (and for Mr. Rebelez, on June 24, 2022), subject to continued employment through the vesting date, except as otherwise set forth in the applicable award agreement, and are subject to adjustment based on the Company's performance. The final number of units earned will be based on the Company's three-year average ROIC achievement over a three-year performance period, which includes the 2020-2022 fiscal years (the "Performance Period"). The number of units awarded to each NEO is based on the Company's achievement of threshold (50% awarded), target (100% awarded) and maximum (200% awarded) ROIC goals over the Performance Period.

PSUs Subject to Relative TSR Goals : These units represent 37.5% of the overall value of each NEO's LTIP award, vest in full on June 15, 2022 (and for Mr. Rebelez, on June 24, 2022), subject to continued employment through the vesting date, except as otherwise set forth in the applicable award agreement, and are subject to adjustment based on the Company's performance. The final number of units earned will be based on the Company's TSR during the Performance Period relative to the Performance Peer Group. At the end of the Performance Period, members of the Performance Peer Group will be ranked highest to lowest according to each member's TSR over the Performance Period. The Company's percentile rank will be determined based on linear interpolation by reference to the two members of the Peer Group whose TSRs are immediately above and below the Company's TSR. The number of units awarded to each NEO is based on the Company's achievement of threshold (the 25th percentile, 50% awarded), target (the 50th percentile, 100% awarded) and maximum (the 80th percentile or higher, 200% awarded) TSR performance over the Performance Period. In addition, if the Company's TSR over the Performance Period is negative, then the payout is capped at target (100% awarded), and if the Company's TSR over the Performance Period is 50% or higher, then the payout will not be less than target (100% awarded), in each case, regardless of the Company's percentile rank.

(3) Mr. Handley did not receive a 2020 fiscal year LTIP award due to his separation effective June 23, 2019.

On April 30, 2020, the Company completed the three-year performance period for the LTIP awards granted for the 2018 fiscal year (which awards had the same structure/components as the 2020 fiscal year LTIP awards, as described above), which covered the 2018-2020 fiscal years (i.e., May 1, 2017 through April 30, 2020). This was the first completed three-year performance cycle under the Company's current LTIP structure (which starting in the 2018 fiscal year began incorporating significant performance-based components).

In June 2020, the Committee evaluated performance against the goals for ROIC and relative TSR for the applicable performance period and certified payout for the PSUs as follows:

Relative TSR (percentile rank) 25th 50th 80th 78.4th 195.0 %

end of user-specified TAGGED TABLE

For purposes of evaluating the Company's ROIC performance, re-measurement of net deferred tax liabilities resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act enacted on December 22, 2017 (i.e., tax reform), was excluded. Actual TSR over the three-year performance period was 34%, which ranked 6th out of the 23 (of an original 30) companies remaining in the applicable performance peer group from the 2018 fiscal year. During this time, the Company's stock price increased from approximately $105 to $151 per share.

These awards vested on June 15, 2020, along with the time-based RSUs granted under the 2018 fiscal year LTIP.

Consistent with the Committee's efforts to provide a competitive, external-hire CEO compensation package, and after consultation with WTW, Mr. Rebelez, through his employment agreement, was granted a one-time "make-whole" equity-based award (the "Make-Whole Award"), which replaced the value of long-term incentive compensation that he forfeited when he left his prior employer, Dine Brands Global, Inc., to join the Company as its President and CEO. Aside from the Make-Whole Award, Mr. Rebelez did not receive any sign-on or other inducement awards.

The Make-Whole Award, granted on June 24, 2019, consisted of an award of RSUs with a grant date value equal to $3,850,000 and an award of PSUs with a target grant date value equal to $1,850,000, resulting in the following number of units awarded, at target:

As one of its key strategic pillars, the Company is in the process of a comprehensive digital transformation, which includes the launch of its e-commerce and loyalty platforms. These are designed to establish seamless digital engagement between the Company and its guests, while providing the Company the ability to derive guest insights and data to further meet its guests' expectations. The Committee believes these strategic digital initiatives are critical to the long-term success and growth of the Company. As a result, consistent with its pay-for-performance philosophy, and after consultation with WTW, the Committee also granted Mr. Rebelez a one-time special strategic equity-based award (the "Special Strategic Grant") during the 2020 fiscal year, intended to incentivize these initiatives.

The Special Strategic Grant, granted on December 23, 2019, consists of a target award of 5,000 PSUs, with: (i) up to 2,500 PSUs subject to vesting based on a net increase in the number of members enrolled in the Company's loyalty program—Casey's Rewards—based on the number of members as of December 31, 2020 as compared to December 1, 2019. In the event of a net increase of at least 200%, this goal will be achieved with respect to 75% of such PSUs, and in the event of a net increase of at least 300%, with respect of 100% of such PSUs; and (ii) up to 2,500 PSUs subject to vesting based on an increase in the number of e-commerce transactions by the Company's customers during calendar year 2020. In the event of an increase of at least 40%, this goal will be achieved with respect to 75% of such PSUs, and in the event of an increase of at least 50%, with respect to 100% of such PSUs. Following achievement of the performance goals, the PSUs remain subject to service-based vesting, which will occur one-third on each of January 15, 2021, 2022 and 2023, generally subject to Mr. Rebelez's continued employment.

The long-term incentive equity award agreements contain retirement provisions which provide for a "rule of 65" (55 years of age + 10 full years of service) and "rule of 75" (age + full years of service), whereby if either rule is satisfied, a participant who separates by reason of normal retirement will retain all of his or her unvested RSUs and PSUs, which will vest as originally scheduled, subject to the achievement of applicable performance goals in the case of PSUs. As of April 30, 2020, only Mr. Walljasper ("rule of 65" and "rule of 75") and Ms. Jackowski ("rule of 75") have satisfied the retirement conditions.

The Committee presently intends to continue this practice and believes it rewards long-term, successful service to the Company while encouraging natural turnover at appropriate times.

For a description of the Separation Agreement, Mr. Rebelez's employment agreement and the change of control agreements, see the section named "Executive Compensation—Narrative to the Summary Compensation Table and the Grants of Plan-Based Awards Table" beginning on page 60. For a description of Mr. Bramlage's employment agreement and change of control agreement, see the section named "Recent Executive Compensation Decisions for the 2021 Fiscal Year" beginning on page 52.

RETIREMENT ARRANGEMENTS

All NEOs and other officers are eligible to participate in the 401K Plan on the same terms and conditions as other eligible, full-time employees, under which the Company makes matching contributions up to a certain percentage of the participant's salary.

The Company also maintains the Executive Nonqualified Excess Plan (the "Deferred Compensation Plan"), a nonqualified deferred compensation plan that is described in the section named "Executive Compensation—Nonqualified Deferred Compensation" on page 69. The purpose of the Deferred Compensation Plan is to enable the participants, including our NEOs, to defer a portion of their income without the limitations imposed by the Internal Revenue Code on deferrals under the 401K Plan. The Company does not make matching or other contributions to the Deferred Compensation Plan.

COMMITTEE CONSIDERATION OF RESULTS OF ADVISORY SHAREHOLDER VOTE

At the 2019 annual shareholders' meeting, our executive compensation program received the support of over 97% of the votes cast at that meeting. The Committee has considered the results of this advisory vote and views the outcome as evidence of shareholder support of our executive compensation decisions and policies.

The Committee will continue to review shareholder votes on our executive compensation program and consider whether any additional changes to the program are warranted in light of the voting results.

RECENT EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION DECISIONS FOR THE 2021 FISCAL YEAR

Since the end of the 2020 fiscal year, the following decisions have been made by the Committee and the Board, as applicable, with respect to compensation matters for the 2021 fiscal year for the Company's NEOs (including Mr. Bramlage, who was appointed Chief Financial Officer effective June 1, 2020):

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Compensation Arrangements with Mr. Bramlage

The Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Bramlage, Chief Financial Officer, effective June 1, 2020, under which he is entitled to (i) a base salary at an annual rate of at least $675,000, (ii) an annual target bonus opportunity equal to at least 75% of base salary, and (iii) an annual long-term incentive award with a target grant date value equal to at least 175% of base salary. The agreement also provided for a one-time, long-term equity award consisting of RSUs with a grant date value equal to $1,000,000, and an award of PSUs with a target grant date value equal to $1,000,000, generally subject to continued employment. The RSUs will vest in equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date. The PSUs will cliff vest between 0% and 200% of target subject to the achievement of performance goals over a three-year performance period, as determined by the Committee and not inconsistent with the annual PSU awards granted to the Company's other senior executives in for the 2021 fiscal year. Lastly, Mr. Bramlage will be reimbursed for certain relocation expenses, which are subject to repayment in the event his employment is terminated prior to the first anniversary by Mr. Bramlage without good reason or by the Company for

cause (as defined in his employment agreement). He is solely responsible for his taxes with respect to the relocation benefits.

The Company also entered into a change of control severance agreement with Mr. Bramlage. In the event his employment is terminated by the Company without cause or by him for good reason (as defined in his change of control agreement) within 24 months following a change of control, Mr. Bramlage would be entitled to a lump-sum cash severance payment in an amount equal to (i) two times the sum of his then-current base salary and the greater of the annual incentive payment received by him for the last full fiscal year prior to such termination or the last full fiscal year prior to the change of control (the "Recent Incentive Payment"), (ii) a pro rata Recent Incentive Payment, and (iii) 24 months of COBRA premiums. Mr. Bramlage is not entitled to any excise tax gross-up payments with respect to Section 280G, and instead, the agreement provides for a "best net" approach.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Base Salaries

Base salary increases for the following NEOs for the 2021 fiscal year are as follows: (i) Mr. Rebelez, $50,000 increase to $1,000,000; (ii) Ms. Jackowski, $12,500 increase to $605,000; (iii) Mr. Soupene, $13,800 increase to $467,000; and (iv) Mr. Jones, $25,000 increase to $475,000.

The increase to Mr. Rebelez's 2021 fiscal year base salary, along with the increases to his target annual incentive and LTIP percentages, as noted below, reflect the Committee's desire to move the elements of his compensation closer to the market median, consistent with its compensation philosophy, and are also reflective of the Company's financial/operating results, and Mr. Rebelez's individual performance and contributions, during the 2020 fiscal year.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Annual Incentive Compensation Program

The annual incentive compensation structure for the 2021 fiscal year was approved, which was simplified with fewer metrics, and will be based on EBITDA (50%), with the remaining 50% based on gross profit dollars in the fuel category (25%) and same-store sales growth in the inside sales category (25%). The payout at target is based on a percentage of 2021 fiscal year base salary (Mr. Rebelez, 130%; Mr. Bramlage, 75%; Mr. Soupene, 70%; Ms. Jackowski, 65%; and Mr. Jones, 65%), with an overall payout range from 0% to 200% of target depending on performance. All bonuses earned under the plan will be paid in cash.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Long-Term Incentive Compensation Program

The long-term equity incentive awards, made under the terms of the Company's 2018 Stock Incentive Plan, were approved, with metrics consistent with the Company's long-term strategic plan that was unveiled in January 2020. The awards are based on a percentage of 2021 fiscal year base salary (Mr. Rebelez, 380%; Mr. Bramlage, 175%; Mr. Soupene, 125%; Ms. Jackowski, 110%; Mr. Jones, 110%) and consist of (i) time-based RSUs, comprising 25% of the award amount, (ii) PSUs subject to ROIC performance goals, comprising 37.5% of the award amount, and (iii) PSUs subject to EBITDA performance goals, comprising 37.5% of the award amount. The PSUs granted represent a target amount, with the number of shares awarded based on the Company's achievement of threshold (50% awarded), target (100% awarded) and maximum (200% awarded) performance goals over a three-year performance period (fiscal years 2021, 2022 and 2023).

Following the determination of the Company's achievement of the ROIC and EBITDA goals for such performance period, the PSUs actually awarded will be subject to a positive or negative adjustment based upon a comparison of the Company's TSR relative to a comparator group for such period (the "TSR Modifier"). If the Company ranks in the bottom quartile of the group, the number of PSUs actually awarded will be reduced by 25%; if the Company ranks in the top quartile of the group,

Table of Contents

the number of PSUs actually awarded will be increased by 25% (which, based on maximum performance goals achieved, could result in a payment of up to 250% of target for the PSUs).

The RSUs will vest in equal installments on June 15, 2021, June 15, 2022 and June 15, 2023, and the PSUs will vest in full on June 15, 2023, subject to satisfaction of the applicable performance goals and application of the TSR Modifier, with each generally subject to continued employment through the vesting date, except as otherwise set forth in the applicable award agreement.

In addition, the NEOs will accrue dividend equivalents on their respective 2021 LTIP awards, which will accrue throughout the applicable performance period and will be paid in cash if, and only to the extent that, the applicable performance goals and service-based vesting requirements have been met. No payment will be made with respect to RSUs or PSUs that do not vest.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Special Performance RSU Grant

The Committee approved a special performance grant of RSUs to Mr. Soupene with respect to 2,000 shares of Common Stock. The award was made in recognition of Mr. Soupene's significant contributions and efforts in leading the Company's COVID-19 "task force" which was established in March 2020 and was, and continues to be, instrumental to the Company's continued operations and performance during the COVID-19 pandemic. The RSUs will vest on June 2, 2022, generally subject to continued employment through the vesting date, except as otherwise set forth in the applicable award agreement.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" CFO Transition Services

The Committee approved a one-time cash payment to Mr. Walljasper in the amount of $75,000 for transition services to be provided to the Company during the three-month period following his retirement as CFO (which retirement was effective May 31, 2020).

TAX TREATMENT OF CERTAIN COMPENSATION

The Tax Reform Act, which was signed into law on December 22, 2017, eliminated the exception for "performance-based compensation" under Section 162(m) of the Code with respect to the Company's 2019 fiscal year and thereafter. As a result, the Company expects that, except to the extent that compensation is eligible for limited transition relief applicable to binding contracts in effect on November 2, 2017, compensation over $1,000,000 per year paid to any NEO (and any person who was a named executive officer for any year beginning with the Company's 2018 fiscal year) will be nondeductible under Section 162(m).

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

The Committee has reviewed and discussed with management the Compensation Discussion and Analysis that begins on page 31. Based on the Committee's review and the discussions with management, the Committee recommended to the Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION IN COMPENSATION DECISIONS

The members of the Committee are Ms. Renda, Ms. Bridgewater, Mr. Lenhardt and Ms. Wing, none of whom has ever been an officer or employee of the Company or any its subsidiaries or had any relationship requiring disclosure by the Company under Item 404 of Regulation S-K. During the 2020 fiscal year, there were no executive officer-director interlocks where an executive officer of the Company served on the compensation committee or board of another corporation that had an executive officer serving on the Company's Board or Compensation Committee.

COMPENSATION PROGRAMS AND RISK MANAGEMENT

The Committee has considered whether any of its compensation programs and policies are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company's compensation programs and policies mitigate risk by combining performance-based, long-term compensation elements with payouts that are highly correlated to the value delivered to shareholders. The combination of performance measures for annual incentive payments and the equity compensation programs, maximum potential incentive payments, multi-year vesting schedules for RSUs and PSUs as well as the performance goals for PSUs, encourage employees to maintain both a short- and a long-term view with respect to Company performance. For these reasons, the Committee has determined that its compensation programs and policies are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

COMMAND=ADD_LINERULETXT,NOSHADE COLOR="#000000" SIZE="1.0PT" WIDTH="11%" ALIGN="LEFT" (1) Represents the potential cash incentive amounts payable to each NEOs under the Annual Incentive Program. The total value of each NEO's Annual Incentive Program award at target is represented as a percentage of base salary. Below the threshold level, there is no payout. Achievement of threshold levels results in payout of 50% of target, and achievement of maximum levels results in payout of 200% of target. Each NEO's annual incentive opportunity was based on (i) diluted EPS (50%), (ii) same-store sales growth and gross profit margin for the fuel category (20%) and (iii) same-store sales growth and gross profit margin for the inside sales categories (30%). A circuit breaker was also utilized, under which a minimum level of diluted EPS was required before any incentive payment could be earned. For a discussion of the Annual Incentive Program for the 2020 fiscal year, see the section named "Compensation Discussion and Analysis—Annual Incentive Compensation" beginning on page 40. The annual incentive payments earned for the 2020 fiscal year, as set forth in the Summary Compensation Table, represent a payment equal to 113% of each NEOs' target payout, resulting in the following payments: (i) Mr. Rebelez, $1,073,500; (ii) Mr. Walljasper, $484,883; (iii) Ms. Jackowski, $435,191; (iv) Mr. Soupene, $358,481; and (v) Mr. Jones, $330,525. Mr. Handley separated effective June 23, 2019, and as such, did not receive an annual incentive payment for the 2020 fiscal year. (2) Represents PSUs subject to ROIC performance goals and PSUs subject to relative TSR performance goals, representing 37.5% and 37.5%, respectively, of the total value of each NEO's award under the Company's LTIP for the 2020 fiscal year. The total value of each NEO's LTIP award at target is represented as a percentage of base salary. Below the threshold level, there is no payout with respect to the PSUs. Achievement of threshold levels results in payout of 50% of target, and achievement of maximum levels results in payout of 200% of target. Such RSUs and PSUs vest in full on June 15, 2022 (other than Mr. Rebelez's award, which vests in full on June 24, 2022), generally subject to continued employment and, in the case of the PSUs, to the Company's achievement of the applicable performance goals. The final number of shares awarded with respect to the ROIC PSUs will be based on the Company's average ROIC achievement over a three-year performance period, which includes the 2020-2022 fiscal years (the "Performance Period").

(1) The "value realized" on exercise for option awards represents the amount by which the closing price of Common Stock on the date that each option was exercised exceeded the exercise price of such option, multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock with respect to which such option was exercised. The value realized was determined without considering any taxes or brokerage commissions. (2) The RSU awards that vested in the 2020 fiscal year reflect (i) the vesting on June 2, 2019 of all RSUs awarded to each applicable NEO on June 2, 2016 and (ii) the vesting on May 1, 2019 of the third 20% installment of the RSUs awarded to Mr. Handley on April 12, 2016. (3) The "value realized" on vesting for stock awards represents the number of units that vested multiplied by the closing price of Common Stock on the applicable vesting date and was determined without regard to any taxes or brokerage commissions.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

Under the Deferred Compensation Plan, certain employees, including the NEOs, may voluntarily defer up to 80% of their base salary and up to 80% of any incentive payments awarded under the Company's Annual Incentive Program.

The Deferred Compensation Plan offers certain employees a deferral feature that can be used to supplement the limited deferrals permitted under our 401K Plan. However, unlike our tax-qualified 401K Plan, the participant deferrals under the Deferred Compensation Plan are not matched by the Company.

Elections to defer eligible compensation are made by participants in December of each year for amounts to be deferred in the following calendar year, after annual incentive compensation determinations have been made.

(1) The Company makes no contributions to deferrals. (2) The amounts in this column reflect pre-scheduled withdrawals that were created under the educational accounts for the NEOs' children, and in the case of Mr. Handley, his separation of employment. (3) All amounts in this column attributable to NEO contributions to the Deferred Compensation Plan were reported in the Summary Compensation Table with respect to the relevant fiscal year as salary or non-equity incentive plan compensation, as applicable, if the NEO was a NEO with respect to the fiscal year in which the relevant amount was earned. No portion of any NEO's balance in the Deferred Compensation Plan that is attributable to earnings was reported in the Summary Compensation Table because such earnings are not above-market or preferential.

A variety of mutual fund investment alternatives are available in which Deferred Compensation Plan participants can direct their notional investments. Each participant's investment return is based on his or her investment selections. Deferrals are immediately vested. Distributions from the plan are allowed at various times, including termination of employment, death, specified date, disability, change of control and in the event of unforeseen emergency. The Deferred Compensation Plan is unfunded and is not subject to the fiduciary requirements of ERISA.

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE OF CONTROL

The following tables set out the payments that could be paid to the NEOs upon a termination of their employment for certain reasons or in the event of a change of control of the Company. The amounts shown assume that the relevant event occurred on or was effective as of April 30, 2020, and thus include amounts earned through such time and are estimates of the amounts which would be paid upon termination or in the event of a change of control. The actual amounts to be paid out can only be determined at the time of actual separation from the Company or the consummation of a change of control.

In addition to the amounts shown or described below, upon termination of employment for any reason, each NEO will be entitled to his or her (i) vested benefits under the Deferred Compensation Plan, (ii) vested account balance under the 401K Plan, (iii) salary through the date of termination, and (iv) accrued but unpaid vacation.

(2) In the case of RSUs and PSUs granted during the 2018-2020 fiscal years, "retirement" means retirement upon satisfying either the "rule of 65" (55 years of age plus 10 years of service) or "rule of 75" (age plus full years of service equals at least 75). In such event, all such RSUs and PSUs would remain outstanding and vest on the regularly scheduled vesting date, in the case of PSUs, subject to achievement of applicable performance goals. As of April 30, 2020, Mr. Walljasper met the "rule of 65" and the "rule of 75", and Ms. Jackowski met the "rule of 75" (and as of his separation, Mr. Handley met both "rules"). As such, all such unvested RSUs and PSUs would vest as originally scheduled on June 15, 2020 (for fiscal 2018 awards), June 15, 2021 (for fiscal 2019 awards), and June 15, 2022 (for fiscal 2020 awards), subject to the Company's achievement of applicable performance goals in the case of PSUs. For the purposes of estimating these awards as set forth below, these awards were calculated using the target level of PSUs. The actual value, if any, realized by a NEO from PSUs will depend on the actual performance level achieved by the Company for the applicable performance periods. Mr. Rebelez, Mr. Soupene and Mr. Jones had not met the "rule of 65" or the "rule of 75" as of April 30, 2019 and, accordingly, were not eligible to retire and continue vesting in any RSUs or PSUs.

(3) Upon a NEO's death, the NEO's beneficiaries will receive payment of the proceeds of Company provided life insurance. All vested options remain exercisable by the NEO's legal representatives or beneficiaries for 12 months after the date of death. With respect to the unvested RSUs and PSUs awarded during the 2018-2020 fiscal years, the RSUs awarded will vest, and the PSUs awarded will vest at the target level, in each case prorated for the portion of the applicable performance period completed (other than Mr. Rebelez's Make-Whole Award, and Special Strategic Grant after December 31, 2020, which are not subject to proration), which, as of April 30, 2020, was the entire performance period for PSUs awarded during the 2018 fiscal year, two-thirds of the performance period for PSUs awarded during the 2019 fiscal year, and one-third of the performance period for PSUs awarded during the 2020 fiscal year. (4) If any NEO becomes "disabled" as defined in the Company-provided Long-Term Disability Plan, he or she will receive monthly disability payments equal to $5,000 per month to age 65. In accordance with applicable SEC guidance, the estimated present value of such disability benefits has not been included in the tables below, because such benefits are provided under a broad-based, nondiscriminatory plan. Upon termination of employment due to disability, all vested options remain exercisable for three months. All unvested RSUs and PSUs will be treated in the same manner as death, as described in the preceding paragraph. (5) Upon termination for cause, all unvested RSUs and PSUs are forfeited. If the termination is for deliberate, willful or gross misconduct, all rights to exercise options expire upon the receipt of such notice of termination. (6) Under Mr. Rebelez's employment agreement, upon his involuntary termination other than by the Company for cause or by Mr. Rebelez for good reason (as such terms are defined in the employment agreement), the Company would be obligated to pay Mr. Rebelez a lump-sum cash payment equal to 24 months' base salary and, for 24 months following such termination, a monthly cash payment equal to Mr. Rebelez's monthly COBRA premiums, in each case, subject to the execution of a general release in favor of the Company and compliance with certain restrictive covenants. Under the Casey's General Stores, Inc. Officer Severance Plan, upon a NEO's (other than Mr. Rebelez) involuntary termination other than by the Company for "Cause" or the NEO for "Good Reason" (as such terms are defined in the severance plan), the Company would be obligated to pay the NEO 18 months' base salary and COBRA premiums in equal installments over an 18 month period following such NEO's termination, in each case, subject to the execution of a general release in favor of the Company and compliance with certain restrictive covenants.

In the event of a termination without cause, the vested options remain exercisable for three months, and all unvested RSUs and PSUs are forfeited as of the effective date of the termination, other than the RSUs and PSUs granted to Mr. Rebelez's under the Make-Whole Award, which will continue to vest for a period of 24 months, and in the case of the PSUs, subject to the Company's achievement of applicable performance goals, and subject to subject to his execution of a general release in favor of the Company and compliance with certain restrictive covenants.

(7) Upon termination of a NEO's employment prior to the earlier of the second anniversary of a change of control and the executive's normal retirement date within the meaning of the Company's 401K Plan (the "Employment Period") for reasons other than cause, death or disability, or for good reason by the NEO (as such terms are defined in the applicable change of control severance agreement), the Company is obligated to pay the NEO a lump-sum cash severance payment in an amount equal to the sum of (a) three times (for Mr. Rebelez, 2.5 times) the sum of (i) the NEO's then-current annual base salary and (ii) the greater of the annual bonus received by the NEO for the last full fiscal year prior to such termination or the last full fiscal year prior to the change of control (the "Recent Bonus"); (b) a pro rata Recent Bonus; and (c) for the NEOs other than Mr. Rebelez, continued benefits during the remainder of the Employment Period, and for Mr. Rebelez, an amount equal to 30 months of Mr. Rebelez's monthly COBRA premiums.

Upon the NEO's death or disability during the Employment Period, the NEO, or his or her beneficiaries, would be entitled to receive a pro-rated Recent Bonus.

For the NEOs other than Mr. Rebelez, the Company will reduce any payment to the extent it would be non-deductible by the Company for federal income tax purposes because of Section 280G (a straight "cutback" approach). For Mr. Rebelez, the change of control payments are limited to the threshold amount under Section 280G if it would be more favorable to Mr. Rebelez on a net after-tax basis than receiving the full

(8) Upon a change of control of the Company, all unvested RSUs and PSUs awarded to the NEOs during the 2018 and 2019 fiscal years will vest, in the case of unvested PSUs, based on the Committee's determination of achievement of the applicable ROIC and TSR performance goals through the date of the change of control. For RSUs and PSUs awarded to the NEOs during the 2020 fiscal year, such awards would not vest upon a change of control if they are assumed by the acquirer (unless, within 24 months following a change of control, the NEOs employment is terminated without cause or for good reason, or as a result of death or disability, in which case such awards would automatically vest) (i.e., "double-trigger" vesting). For the purposes of estimating these awards, it was calculated using the target level of PSUs, and for the 2020 fiscal year awards, assuming they were assumed by the acquirer. The actual value, if any, realized by a NEO from PSUs will depend on the actual performance level achieved by the Company for the applicable performance periods. Any reductions with respect to Section 280G, as described in the paragraph above, are not reflected in the tables. (9) The amounts reported for long-term incentives are based on the closing price of the Company's stock on April 30, 2020 ($151.41), the last trading day of the fiscal year. No amount is reported for options or RSUs that vested prior to April 30, 2020. (10) Health care costs are based on estimates of the Company's current costs for such benefits as of April 30, 2020.

CEO PAY RATIO

Pursuant to Section 953(b) of the Dodd-Frank Act and Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we provide the following "pay ratio" information for 2020 fiscal year. The pay ratio included in this information represents a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K.

For 2020, our last completed fiscal year, the annual total compensation of our CEO, Mr. Rebelez, as provided in the Summary Compensation Table, was $11,298,729. However, Mr. Rebelez was appointed CEO effective June 24, 2019, less than the full 2020 fiscal year, and as such, annualizing his salary of $791,667 as set forth therein, to his full base salary of $950,000, arrives at a value of $11,457,062 for purposes of calculating the "pay ratio." The annual total compensation of our median employee, a part-time store employee located in rural Illinois, was $16,938, which was calculated using the same methodology as required by the Summary Compensation Table. Therefore, the ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to that of our median employee for the 2020 fiscal year was approximately 676:1.

Mr. Rebelez's total compensation for the 2020 fiscal year included several one-time, non-recurring items related to his transition as CEO, including relocation expenses and a "make-whole" and strategic equity award. Excluding these one-time, non-recurring items, his compensation would have been $4,771,259, resulting in a "pay ratio" of 281:1, which the Company believes is a more accurate reflection of the relationship of Mr. Rebelez's annual total compensation to that of our median compensated employee.

To determine the median employee (excluding our CEO), we used April 30, 2020 as the determination date, and we ranked each employee (other than our CEO) based on total gross wages received (as reflected in the Company's payroll records) with respect to the 12-month period beginning on May 1, 2019, and ending on April 30, 2020. Compensation for permanent employees who did not work the entire measurement period was annualized; however, no other exemptions, assumptions, adjustments or estimates were used.

Because the SEC rules for identifying the median employee and calculating the pay ratio based on that employee's annual total compensation allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, to apply certain exclusions, and to make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their compensation practices, the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

The Compensation Committee regularly reviews director compensation and seeks to compensate our directors in a manner that attracts and retains highly qualified directors and aligns the interests of our directors with those of our shareholders.

The compensation program compensates our directors for their Board service for the period between annual shareholders' meetings, which are typically held in September of each year. Directors elected to the board, or appointed to committees or chair positions after the start of such period, receive prorated compensation. Only non-employee directors receive compensation for their service on the Board.

For the 2020 fiscal year, each non-employee director received an annual Board retainer with a total value of $195,000, consisting of approximately $80,000 in cash and approximately $115,000 in equity. An additional annual cash retainer was paid to the Board Chair in the amount of $130,000, and to each individual committee chair/member as follows:

COMMAND=ADD_TABLEWIDTH,"100%" User-specified TAGGED TABLE

Committee Retainers Chair Member
Audit Committee $ 32,500 $ 15,000

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee $ 20,000 $ 8,000
Risk Committee $ 20,000 $ 8,000

end of user-specified TAGGED TABLE

Cash retainer fees are paid on an annual basis, in advance. The equity portion is granted on an annual basis at the time of our annual shareholders' meeting in the form of restricted stock units ("RSUs"), which vest at our next annual shareholders' meeting, subject to each director's continued service as a director.

During the 2020 fiscal year, certain directors also received a one-time cash payment to compensate them for their service on a special-purpose CEO search committee formed by the Board (the "Search Committee"), which resulted in Mr. Rebelez's hiring as the Company's President/CEO. The Chair of the Search Committee received a cash payment of $25,000 and each other member of the Search Committee received a cash payment of $15,000.

Our directors also receive the following benefits: (i) reimbursement for travel and other necessary business expenses; (ii) coverage under the Company's group life insurance plan, with coverages of up to $50,000 for each non-employee director; and (iii) reimbursement up to a maximum of $10,000 per year for costs associated with continuing education relating to corporate governance matters.

COMMAND=STYLE_ADDED,"margin-left:10.0pt;text-indent:-10.0pt;" Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

The Company has a written policy requiring the disclosure to and approval by the Audit Committee of certain "related party transactions" in which the Company is a participant that may be required to be disclosed under Item 404 of Regulation S-K. For this purpose, "related parties" include all directors, executive officers and any director nominee (and their immediate family members), and any holder of more than 5% of the Common Stock (and their immediate family members). For the purposes of the Company's policy, a "related party transaction" generally is any transaction in which (i) the aggregate amount involved will or may be expected to exceed $75,000 in any fiscal year, (ii) the Company is a participant, and (iii) any "related party" has or will have a direct or indirect interest, in each case, subject to certain pre-approved exceptions set forth in the policy.

Under the policy, each director and executive officer shall identify to the Chair of the Audit Committee any related party transaction for which he or she may be a related party, along with any requested supplemental information. The Audit Committee will review the material facts of all related party transactions that require the Committee's approval and either approve or disapprove of the same, or if advance approval is not feasible, consider whether to ratify the same. In determining whether to

Table of Contents

approve or ratify a related party transaction, the Audit Committee will take into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, whether the transaction is in the best interests of the Company, whether it is on non-preferential terms, and the extent of the related party's interest in the transaction. No director may participate in any discussion or approval of a transaction for which he or she is a related party, except that the director must provide all material information concerning the transaction to the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee will report its action with respect to any related party transaction to the Board. The Audit Committee did not review or approve any related party transactions during the 2020 fiscal year.

In 1997, the Company established a Non-Qualified Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan ("SERP") for the benefit of two former officers and directors, Ronald M. Lamb and Donald F. Lamberti, a founder of the Company and the father of former director Jeffrey M. Lamberti. The SERP provides for the payment of an annual retirement benefit to the specified officers for the earlier of a period of 20 years or until their death, after which such benefits are to be paid, in each case, to the officer's spouse for a period ending on the 20th anniversary of the officer's retirement or the spouse's death, whichever occurs first. Mr. Lamb's spouse and Donald F. Lamberti participate in the SERP and receive annual retirement benefits of $350,000 and $275,000, respectively.

Under the employment agreement with our former Chief Executive Officer and Board Chair, Mr. Myers, commencing on January 1, 2017 and continuing for a period until the earlier of ten years thereafter or the death of Mr. Myers and his spouse, the Company will pay an annual retirement benefit to Mr. Myers (or his spouse, in the event of his death during said period) equal to $330,000 per year.

The Separation Agreement with Mr. Handley, dated May 31, 2019, provided that (a) he will receive continued payment of his base salary for a period of 18 months following his separation, in accordance with the severance provisions in his employment agreement, (b) his outstanding RSUs and PSUs that were granted to him on or after July 14, 2017 will continue to vest pursuant to the provisions set forth in the applicable award agreements (while forfeiting any other outstanding equity-based awards that were unvested as of June 23, 2019), and (c) he would provide consulting services to the Company during the six months following his separation in exchange for a lump-sum cash payment equal to six months' of his base salary, or $462,500. In addition, the Company assigned the life insurance policy provided under Mr. Handley's employment agreement to him in accordance with the terms of the agreement.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Audit Committee operates under a Charter approved by the Board of Directors. All members of the Audit Committee are "independent", as defined by the SEC as well as the applicable Nasdaq Listing Standards.

The Audit Committee reviews the Company's financial reporting process, including internal control over financial reporting, on behalf of the Board of Directors. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including the system of internal controls. The Company's independent registered public accounting firm, KPMG LLP ("KPMG"), is responsible for expressing an opinion as to the fairness of the financial statements and the conformity of those audited financial statements with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Additionally, KPMG expresses an opinion on whether the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting.

In this context, the Audit Committee has met and held discussions with management, internal audit, and KPMG. Management represented to the Committee that the Company's audited consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and the Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited consolidated financial statements with management and KPMG. The Committee also discussed with KPMG matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") and the SEC. The Committee also has received and reviewed written disclosures and the letter from KPMG related to independence as required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB, has discussed with KPMG the firm's independence, and has considered whether the provision of non-audit services by KPMG, and the fees paid for such services, are compatible with maintaining its independence.

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended April 30, 2020.

PROPOSAL 2 RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Subject to shareholder ratification, the Audit Committee has appointed KPMG to audit the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the 2021 fiscal year. The Company has used KPMG (and its predecessor firms) as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm since the 1988 fiscal year. Ratification requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast on the matter at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions will not be counted as votes cast for such purposes and therefore will have no effect on the results of the vote. If the shareholders do not ratify this appointment, the Audit Committee will consider the matter of the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firm.

The Board of Directors recommends that shareholders vote FOR such ratification.

Representatives of KPMG will be present at the Annual Meeting, will be given an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions relating to the audit.

Under its charter, the Audit Committee shall pre-approve all audit and any permitted non-audit services provided to the Company by the independent registered public accounting firm and the fees to be paid for those services. The Audit Committee may delegate authority to subcommittees (consisting of one or more members) to grant pre-approvals of certain audit and permitted non-audit services, provided that decisions of such subcommittee to grant pre-approvals are presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. All of the services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm to the Company during the 2020 fiscal year were pre-approved by the Audit Committee or its chair pursuant to delegated authority.

PROPOSAL 3 ADVISORY VOTE ON OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION

The Board is committed to compensation governance and recognizes the significant interest of shareholders in executive compensation matters. We provide our shareholders annually with an opportunity to cast an advisory vote regarding the compensation of our named executive officers, as disclosed in this Proxy Statement. This "say-on-pay" proposal is intended to provide shareholders with the opportunity to express their views on our compensation decisions and policies regarding our named executive officers. In prior years, our shareholders have expressed strong support through this "say-on-pay" vote, including at our annual shareholders' meeting in September 2019, at which our named executive officers' compensation received approval of over 97% of the votes cast.

As described in the section named "Compensation Discussion and Analysis", our executive compensation program is designed to closely align the interests of our named executive officers with the interests of shareholders, and to balance long-term performance with shorter-term goals. The program maintains a strong link between executive pay and our long-term financial performance, including by subjecting 75% of annual long-term incentive compensation to achievement of performance goals over a three-year period. The Compensation Committee believes its compensation decisions for the 2020 fiscal year appropriately compensate the named executive officers for the Company's performance and are closely aligned with the long-term interests of our shareholders.

In view of the foregoing and in accordance with Section 14A of the Exchange Act, the Company is asking shareholders to approve the following resolution:

Shareholders may vote FOR, AGAINST or ABSTAIN on this item. Because your vote is advisory, it will not be binding on the Company, and will not overrule any decision by the Board or require the Board to take any particular action. However, the Board values the views of shareholders on executive compensation matters, and will consider the outcome of this vote when considering future executive compensation arrangements for the named executive officers.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THIS ADVISORY RESOLUTION ON OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICER COMPENSATION.
