The OPIS Bottom Line Report goes beyond traditional rack pricing to uncover where the true deals are happening. OPIS observes hundreds of branded and unbranded offers at prices under the OPIS Rack Low. Many of these prices are negotiated privately as deals under the OPIS Terminal Rack Low. The OPIS Bottom Line Report brings transparency to these βbottom lineβ values. By analyzing these transactions, we shine a light on the hidden side of the market, giving you unprecedented visibility into what buyers are really paying for gasoline, diesel and ethanol.Β
Each report delivers two critical views: the Bottom Line Average, which shows the true average price under the OPIS Net Terminal Low, and the Observed Offer Count, which indicates just how active the market has been beneath the published low. Together, these snapshots tell you whether youβre looking at an isolated price or a broader pricing trend. Because the report integrates seamlessly with OPIS RackPro, you can easily connect Bottom Line insights with other OPIS rack pricing data. This means you donβt just see prices in isolation but you see them in market context.

Across the supply chain, buyers and sellers rely on the Bottom Line Report to sharpen their competitive edge:Β
When you need to clear out excess fuel inventory, finding the right market-clearing price is a challenge. The OPIS Bottom Line Report reveals the true market floor by reporting observed off-rack transactions below the posted OPIS Rack Low. Armed with this transparency, sellers can quickly discover how low they may need to price their discretionary barrels to stay competitive, maximize velocity, and clear out inventory fast without needlessly sacrificing margin.
Entering a contract renewal without visibility into off-market discounts puts you at a disadvantage. While traditional rack benchmarks provide a baseline, the OPIS Bottom Line Report reports observed fuel offers at lower prices. Knowing these additional observed prices gives you additional leverage to negotiate pricing and secure a better deal on your next contract.
