Operating Units [Abstract] |
Operating Units | Operating Units. Investment Our Investment segment is comprised of various private investment funds, including Icahn Partners L.P. ("Icahn Partners"), Icahn Partners Master Fund LP, Icahn Partners Master Fund II LP and Icahn Partners Master Fund III LP (collectively, the "Master Funds," and together with Icahn Partners, the "Investment Funds"), through which we invest our proprietary capital. We and certain of Mr. Icahn's wholly owned affiliates are the sole investors in the Investment Funds. Icahn Onshore LP and Icahn Offshore LP (together, the "General Partners") act as the general partner of Icahn Partners and the Master Funds, respectively. The General Partners provide investment advisory and certain administrative and back office services to the Investment Funds but do not provide such services to any other entities, individuals or accounts. Interests in the Investment Funds are not offered to outside investors. Effective January 1, 2014, Icahn Partners Master Fund II LP and Icahn Partners Master Fund III LP were merged with and into Icahn Partners. As a result, the Investment Funds now consist solely of Icahn Partners LP and Icahn Partners Master Fund LP. Other than this merger, no other organizational or policy changes were made within our Investment segment. The fair value of our interest in the Investment Funds was approximately $3.4 billion and $4.3 billion as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Automotive As of December 31, 2015, we conduct our Automotive segment through our majority ownership in Federal-Mogul and our wholly owned subsidiary, IEH Auto Parts Holding LLC ("IEH Auto"), which acquired certain automotive assets of Uni-Select, Inc. through an acquisition that was consummated during the second quarter of 2015 (see below for further discussion). Federal-Mogul is a leading global supplier of a broad range of components, accessories and systems to the automotive, small engine, heavy-duty, marine, railroad, agricultural, off-road, aerospace and energy, industrial and transport markets, including customers in both the original equipment manufacturers and servicers (“OE”) market and the replacement market (“aftermarket”). Federal-Mogul’s customers include the world’s largest automotive OEs and major distributors and retailers in the independent aftermarket. Federal-Mogul operates with two end-customer focused businesses. The Powertrain business unit focuses on original equipment products for automotive, heavy duty and industrial applications. The Motorparts business unit sells and distributes a broad portfolio of products in the global aftermarket, while also serving original equipment manufacturers with products including braking, chassis, wipers and other vehicle components. This organizational model allows for a strong product line focus benefiting both original equipment and aftermarket customers and enables the global Federal-Mogul teams to be responsive to customers’ needs for superior products and to promote greater identification with Federal-Mogul premium brands. Additionally, this organizational model enhances management focus to capitalize on opportunities for organic and acquisition growth, profit improvement, resource utilization and business model optimization in line with the unique requirements of the two different customer bases. IEH Auto has 34 distribution centers and satellite locations and 264 corporate-owned parts stores in the United States and supports a network of more than 2,000 independent parts stores. IEH Auto operates independently of Federal-Mogul. Transactions between Federal-Mogul and IEH Auto have been eliminated in consolidation. Federal-Mogul Reorganization On September 3, 2014, Federal-Mogul announced its plan to separate its Powertrain and Motorparts businesses into two independent, publicly-traded companies serving the global original equipment and aftermarket industries. On February 24, 2015, Federal-Mogul announced that it would defer the previously announced spin-off of its Motorparts business to allow for the integration of its recently completed brake component, chassis and valvetrain acquisitions and to recognize the benefits of the strategic initiatives in the Motorparts business. As a result of the deferral and the recent closing of the acquisition of TRW's (as defined below) valvetrain business, Federal-Mogul commenced a common stock rights offering to strengthen its balance sheet. See below for further information regarding this rights offering. On January 15, 2016, Federal-Mogul announced it terminated its previously announced spin-off of its Motorparts business. Federal-Mogul will continue to operate in two separate, independent businesses with separate CEOs who will each report directly to Federal-Mogul's board of directors. The separate businesses more effectively serve their unique markets and allow each operating business to pursue its business strategy and more quickly react to its respective market conditions. Acquisitions Pursuant to a certain share and asset purchase agreement dated January 23, 2015, Federal-Mogul completed the acquisition of TRW Automotive Holdings Corp.'s ("TRW") valvetrain business. On February 6, 2015, Federal-Mogul completed the acquisition of certain assets of the TRW's valvetrain business. The business was acquired through a combination of asset and stock purchases for a base purchase price of $309 million. In addition, on July 7, 2015, Federal-Mogul completed the purchase of certain additional business assets of the TRW valvetrain business which were acquired through stock purchases for a base purchase price of $56 million. The purchase includes a $25 million non-controlling interest related to the acquisition of a majority owned entity that Federal-Mogul consolidates into its financial statements. These acquisitions were funded primarily from the Federal-Mogul Replacement Revolving Facility (as defined herein) and is subject to certain customary closing and post-closing adjustments. The purchase of TRW’s valvetrain business adds a new product line to Federal-Mogul's portfolio, strengthens its position as a leading developer and supplier of core components for engines, and enhances its ability to support its customers to improve fuel economy and reduce emissions. On June 1, 2015, IEH Auto acquired substantially all of the auto parts assets in the United States of Uni-Select, Inc., a leading automotive parts distributor for domestic and imported vehicles, for a purchase price of $325 million. We recorded a gain on acquisition of $5 million, net of taxes, related to this purchase, representing the difference of the fair value of net assets acquired over the consideration transferred as of the acquisition date. The bargain purchase gain was recorded in other income, net on the consolidated statements of operations. We reassessed whether we had correctly identified all of the assets acquired and all of the liabilities assumed of the IEH Auto business acquisition before recognizing a gain on a bargain purchase. We concluded that we had appropriately reviewed our procedures for measuring and allocating fair values of the IEH Auto business acquisition before recognizing a bargain purchase gain. The acquisitions of the TRW's valvetrain business, IEH Auto and Ferrous Resources (as discussed below) during the year ended December 31, 2015 are not material, individually or in the aggregate, to our consolidated financial statements. On February 3, 2016, pursuant to a tender offer, Icahn Enterprises acquired a majority of the outstanding shares of Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack ("Pep Boys"), a leading aftermarket provider of automotive service, tires, parts and accessories across the United States and Puerto Rico. On February 4, 2016, Icahn Enterprises completed the acquisition of the remaining outstanding shares of Pep Boys and our wholly owned subsidiary, IEP Parts Acquisition LLC, merged with and into Pep Boys, with Pep Boys surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Icahn Enterprises Holdings. The total value for the acquisition of Pep Boys was approximately $1.2 billion, including the fair value of our equity interest in Pep-Boys just prior to our acquisition of a controlling interest. Rights Offering On March 26, 2015, Federal-Mogul received $250 million in connection with its previously announced common stock registered rights offering (the “Federal-Mogul Rights Offering”). In connection with the Federal-Mogul Rights Offering, we fully exercised our subscription rights under our basic and over subscription privileges to purchase additional shares of Federal-Mogul common stock, thereby increasing our ownership of Federal-Mogul, for an aggregate additional investment of $230 million. As of December 31, 2015, we owned approximately 82.0% of the total outstanding common stock of Federal-Mogul. Accounts Receivable, net Federal-Mogul's subsidiaries in Brazil, France, Germany, Italy and the United States are party to accounts receivable factoring and securitization facilities. Gross accounts receivable transferred under these facilities were $408 million and $306 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Of those gross amounts, $401 million and $293 million, respectively, qualify as sales as defined in FASB ASC Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing. The remaining transferred receivables were pledged as collateral and accounted for as secured borrowings and recorded in the consolidated balance sheets within accounts receivable, net and debt. Under the terms of these facilities, Federal-Mogul is not obligated to draw cash immediately upon the transfer of accounts receivable; however, as of both December 31, 2015 and 2014, Federal-Mogul had withdrawn all such cash. Proceeds from the transfers of accounts receivable qualifying as sales were approximately $1.6 billion, $1.7 billion and $1.5 billion for the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, expenses associated with transfers of receivables were $9 million, $6 million and $7 million, respectively, and were recorded in the consolidated statements of operations within other income (loss), net. Where Federal-Mogul receives a fee to service and monitor these transferred receivables, such fees are sufficient to offset the costs and as such, a servicing asset or liability is not recorded as a result of such activities. Certain of the facilities contain terms that require Federal-Mogul to share in the credit risk of the sold receivables. The maximum exposures to Federal-Mogul associated with certain of these facilities' terms were $11 million and $17 million at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Restructuring During the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013, Federal-Mogul recorded an aggregate of $89 million, $86 million and $40 million in restructuring charges, respectively. These restructuring charges, primarily consisting of employee costs and headcount reductions, pertain to all restructuring programs that Federal-Mogul has initiated in order to improve its operating performance. Federal-Mogul has approved and initiated restructuring activities as a part of a broader initiative to improve operating performance and reduce costs. As such, Federal-Mogul will continue to evaluate its activities and opportunities to align its business with its executive management's strategy. Restructuring expenses for the year ended December 31, 2015 primarily related to Europe, Middle East and Africa locations aimed at reducing production complexities and reducing inefficiencies in indirect and fixed cost structures. Federal-Mogul expects to complete these programs in 2017 and incur additional restructuring charges of approximately $10 million. For programs previously initiated, Federal-Mogul expects to complete these programs in 2018 and incur additional restructuring charges of approximately $10 million. Energy We conduct our Energy segment through our majority ownership in CVR. CVR is a diversified holding company primarily engaged in the petroleum refining and nitrogen fertilizer manufacturing industries through its holdings in CVR Refining, LP (“CVR Refining”) and CVR Partners, LP (“CVR Partners”), respectively. CVR Refining is an independent petroleum refiner and marketer of high value transportation fuels. CVR Partners produces and markets nitrogen fertilizers in the form of urea ammonium nitrate ("UAN") and ammonia. As of December 31, 2015, following various equity offerings as discussed below, CVR owned 100% of the general partners of CVR Refining and CVR Partners and approximately 66% of the outstanding common units of CVR Refining and 53% of the outstanding common units of CVR Partners. Immediately subsequent to the completion of the pending mergers, as discussed below, it is estimated that CVR will hold approximately 34% of the outstanding common units of CVR Partners and 100% of the general partner interest. As of December 31, 2015, we owned 82.0% of the total outstanding common stock of CVR. In addition, as of December 31, 2015, as a result of purchasing common units of CVR Refining as discussed below, we directly owned approximately 4.0% of the total outstanding common units of CVR Refining. CVR Partners - Pending Mergers On August 9, 2015, CVR Partners entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "CVR Partners Merger Agreement") with Rentech Nitrogen Partners, L.P., a publicly traded partnership whose common units are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "RNF" ("Rentech Nitrogen"), and Rentech Nitrogen GP, LLC ("Rentech Nitrogen GP"), pursuant to which CVR Partners will acquire Rentech Nitrogen and Rentech Nitrogen GP. Under the terms of the CVR Partners Merger Agreement, holders of common units representing limited partner interests in Rentech Nitrogen ("Rentech Nitrogen common units") eligible to receive consideration will receive 1.04 common units (the "unit consideration") representing limited partner interests in CVR Partners ("CVR Partners common units") and $2.57 in cash, without interest, (the "cash consideration" and together with the unit consideration, the "merger consideration") for each Rentech Nitrogen common unit. Phantom units granted and outstanding under Rentech Nitrogen's equity plans and held by an employee who will continue in the employment of a CVR Partners-affiliated entity upon closing of the CVR Partners Mergers will be canceled and replaced with new incentive awards of substantially equivalent value and on similar terms. Each phantom unit granted and outstanding and held by (i) an employee who will not continue in employment of a CVR Partners-affiliated entity, or (ii) a director of Rentech Nitrogen GP will, upon closing of the CVR Partners Mergers, vest in full and be entitled to receive the merger consideration. The unit consideration is fixed, and the number of units included in the merger consideration will not be adjusted to reflect changes in the price of Rentech Nitrogen common units or CVR Partners common units. CVR Partners is expected to issue approximately 40.7 million CVR Partners common units to former Rentech Nitrogen common unitholders pursuant to the CVR Partners Mergers. Rentech Nitrogen owns and operates two fertilizer facilities. The facility located in East Dubuque, Illinois produces primarily ammonia and UAN using natural gas as the facility's primary feedstock. The facility located in Pasadena, Texas (the "Pasadena facility") produces ammonium sulfate, ammonium thiosulfate and sulfuric acid, using ammonia and sulfur as the facility's primary feedstocks. Rentech Nitrogen is required to sell or spin off its Pasadena facility as a condition to closing of the CVR Partners Mergers (unless waived), and Rentech Nitrogen common unitholders may receive additional consideration for the Pasadena facility in the event such a sale or spin-off is consummated. The completion of the CVR Partners Mergers is subject to satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions. In addition, the CVR Partners Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for both CVR Partners and Rentech Nitrogen and further provides that upon termination of the CVR Partners Merger Agreement, under certain circumstances, either party may be required to make an expense reimbursement payment of $10 million, and Rentech Nitrogen may be required to pay CVR Partners a termination fee of approximately $31 million. See Note 17, "Commitments and Contingencies - Energy," for discussion of litigation related to the pending merger. Equity Offerings On January 23, 2013, CVR Refining completed its initial public offering ("CVR Refining IPO") of its common units representing limited partner interests, resulting in gross proceeds of $600 million, before giving effect to underwriting discounts and other offering expenses. Included in these proceeds is $100 million paid by us for the purchase of common units of CVR Refining in connection with the CVR Refining IPO. Additionally, on January 30, 2013, additional common units of CVR Refining were issued pursuant to the underwriters' exercise of their overallotment option, resulting in gross proceeds of $90 million, before giving effect to underwriting discounts and other offering costs. On May 20, 2013, CVR Refining completed an underwritten public offering of its common units representing limited partner interests, and on June 10, 2013 issued additional common units pursuant to the underwriters' exercise of their overallotment option, resulting in gross proceeds of $406 million before giving effect to underwriting discounts and offering expenses. In addition, we purchased $62 million of common units of CVR Refining in a privately negotiated transaction with CVR. CVR Refining did not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of common units of CVR Refining to us. On May 28, 2013, Coffeyville Resources, LLC (“CRLLC”), a wholly owned subsidiary of CVR, completed a secondary public offering of common units of CVR Partners. Additionally, the underwriters were granted an option to purchase additional units at the public offering price, which expired unexercised at the end of the option period. The gross proceeds to CRLLC from this secondary offering were $302 million, before giving effect to underwriting discounts and other offering expenses. CVR Partners did not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of common units by CRLLC. As a result of these equity offerings during 2013, our consolidated equity increased by an aggregate of $990 million, of which $902 million was attributable to non-controlling interests and $88 million was attributable to both Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings. These offerings are reflected in proceeds from subsidiary equity offerings within the consolidated statement of equity changes. On June 30, 2014, CVR Refining completed an underwritten offering (the “CVR Refining Follow-on Offering”), resulting in gross proceeds of $170 million before giving effect to underwriting discounts and other offering expenses. On July 24, 2014, the underwriters exercised their option to purchase additional common units of CVR Refining, resulting in gross proceeds of $15 million. CVR Refining used this $15 million in gross proceeds to redeem an equal amount of common units from CVR Refining Holdings. Additionally, on July 24, 2014, CVR Refining Holdings sold common units to the public in connection with the underwriters' exercise of their remaining option to purchase additional common units, resulting in gross proceeds of $10 million. As a result of the CVR Refining Follow-on Offering during 2014, our consolidated equity increased by an aggregate of $160 million, of which $150 million was attributable to non-affiliated non-controlling interests and $10 million was attributable to both Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings. These offerings are reflected in proceeds from subsidiary equity offering within the consolidated statement of equity changes. Petroleum Business Petroleum business. CVR Refining's petroleum business includes a 115,000 barrels per calendar day ("bpcd") rated capacity complex full coking medium-sour crude oil refinery in Coffeyville, Kansas and a 70,000 bpcd rated capacity complex crude oil refinery in Wynnewood, Oklahoma. The Coffeyville refinery is situated on approximately 440 acres in southeast Kansas, approximately 100 miles from Cushing, Oklahoma, a major crude oil trading and storage hub. The Wynnewood refinery is located approximately 65 miles south of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and approximately 130 miles from Cushing, Oklahoma. In addition to the refineries, CVR's petroleum business owns and operates the following: (i) a crude oil gathering system with a gathering capacity of over 65,000 barrels per day ("bpd") serving Kansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Nebraska, Colorado and Texas; (ii) a 170,000 bpd pipeline system (supported by approximately 336 miles of active owned and leased pipeline) that transports crude oil to its Coffeyville refinery from its Broome Station facility near Caney, Kansas; (iii) approximately 7.0 million barrels of company owned and leased crude oil storage capacity; (iv) a rack marketing division supplying product through tanker trucks directly to customers located in close geographic proximity to Coffeyville, Kansas and Wynnewood, Oklahoma and at throughput terminals on Magellan and NuStar Energy, LP's ("NuStar") refined products distribution systems; and (v) over 4.5 million barrels of combined refinery related storage capacity. Nitrogen fertilizer business. CVR Partners' nitrogen fertilizer business consists of a nitrogen fertilizer manufacturing facility that utilizes a petroleum coke, or pet coke, gasification process to produce nitrogen fertilizer. The facility includes a 1,300 ton-per-day ammonia unit, a 3,000 ton-per-day UAN unit and a gasifier complex having a capacity of 89 million standard cubic feet per day of hydrogen. The gasifier is a dual-train facility, with each gasifier able to function independently of the other, thereby providing redundancy and improving reliability. Metals We conduct our Metals segment through our indirect wholly owned subsidiary, PSC Metals, Inc. (“PSC Metals”). PSC Metals collects industrial and obsolete scrap metal, processes it into reusable forms and supplies the recycled metals to its customers, including electric-arc furnace mills, integrated steel mills, foundries, secondary smelters and metals brokers. PSC Metals' ferrous products include busheling, plate and structural, shredded, sheared and bundled scrap metal and other purchased scrap metal such as turnings (steel machining fragments), cast furnace iron and broken furnace iron.

Non-ferrous products are a significant raw material in the production of aluminum and copper alloys used in manufacturing. PSC Metals also operates a steel products business that includes the supply of secondary plate and structural grade pipe that is sold into niche markets for counterweights, piling and foundations, construction materials and infrastructure end-markets. Railcar We conduct our Railcar segment through our majority ownership interests in ARI and American Railcar Leasing, LLC ("ARL"). Pursuant to a contribution agreement dated September 20, 2013 (the "ARL Contribution Agreement"), we acquired a 75% eco nomic interest in ARL in October 2013. Pursuant to the ARL Contribution Agreement, on January 1, 2014, we contributed AEP Leasing, LLC, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of ours, to ARL. ARI manufactures railcars that are offered for sale or lease, custom and standard railcar components and other industrial products, primarily aluminum and special alloy steel castings. These products are sold to various types of companies including shippers, leasing companies, industrial companies, and Class I railroads. ARI leases railcars that it manufactures to certain markets that include the energy, food and agriculture, chemical, minerals and petrochemical industries. ARI provides railcar services consisting of railcar repair services, ranging from full to light repair, engineering and on-site repairs and maintenance through its various repair facilities, including mini repair shops and mobile repair units. ARL is engaged in the business of leasing railcars to customers with specific requirements whose products require specialized railcars dedicated to transporting, storing, and preserving the integrity of their products. These products are primarily in the energy, food and agriculture, chemical, minerals and petrochemical industries. Transactions between ARI and ARL have been eliminated in consolidation. As of December 31, 2015, we owned approximately 59.8% of the total outstanding common stock of ARI and had a 75.0% economic interest in ARL. Gaming We conduct our Gaming segment through our majority ownership in Tropicana. Tropicana currently owns and operates a diversified, multi-jurisdictional collection of casino gaming properties. The eight casino facilities it operates feature approximately 392,000 square feet of gaming space with 8,100 slot machines, 280 table games and 5,500 hotel rooms with two casino facilities located in Nevada and one in each of Mississippi, Missouri, Indiana, Louisiana, New Jersey and Aruba. As of December 31, 2015, we owned approximately 67.9% of the total outstanding common stock of Tropicana. Mining We conduct our Mining segment through our majority ownership in Ferrous Resources. As discussed below, we obtained control of and consolidated the results of Ferrous Resources during the second quarter of 2015. Ferrous Resources acquired certain rights to iron ore mineral resources in Brazil and develops mining operations and related infrastructure to produce and sell iron ore products to the global steel industry. Ferrous Resources has acquired significant iron ore assets in the State of Minas Gerais, Brazil, known as Viga, Viga Norte, Esperança, Serrinha and Santanense. In addition, Ferrous Resources has acquired certain mineral rights near Jacuípe in the State of Bahia, Brazil. Of the assets acquired, Viga, Esperança and Santanense are already extracting and producing iron ore, while the other assets are at an early stage of exploration. In response to the current depressed iron ore price environment, Ferrous Resources decided to temporarily suspend Esperança's and Santanense's operations during the first quarter of 2015 in order to study alternatives to further reduce cost of production and improve product quality and therefore to improve profitability and margin per metric ton. Acquisition On April 25, 2015, IEP Ferrous Brazil LLC ("IEP Ferrous"), a wholly owned subsidiary of ours, entered into an agreement which provided that IEP Ferrous would launch a tender offer to purchase any and all of the outstanding shares of Ferrous Resources for $0.36 per share and backstop a certain rights offering of up to $40 million. Prior to the tender offer, IEP Ferrous owned approximately 14.1% of the total outstanding shares of Ferrous Resources. As a result of the tender offer, IEP Ferrous obtained control of Ferrous Resources through the purchase of additional shares of Ferrous Resources on June 8, 2015 (the acquisition date), and additional shares of Ferrous Resources on June 26, 2015 for a combined aggregate tender consideration of $180 million. In addition, on June 26, 2015, pursuant to a certain rights offering, we purchased additional shares of Ferrous Resources for an aggregate consideration of $29 million. As a result, as of December 31, 2015, we owned approximately 77.2% of the total outstanding common stock of Ferrous Resources. Prior to obtaining a controlling interest, we remeasured our equity interest in Ferrous Resources to its acquisition-date fair value of $36 million, resulting in a $4 million loss on investment activities. The acquisitions of the TRW valvetrain business, IEH Auto and Ferrous Resources during the year ended December 31, 2015 are not material, individually or in the aggregate, to our consolidated financial statements. Food Packaging We conduct our Food Packaging segment through our majority ownership in Viskase Companies, Inc. ("Viskase"). Viskase is a worldwide leader in the production and sale of cellulosic, fibrous and plastic casings for the processed meat and poultry industry. Viskase currently operates nine manufacturing facilities, six distribution centers and three service centers throughout North America, Europe, South America and Asia. As a result, Viskase is able to sell its products in nearly 100 countries throughout the world, deriving approximately 70% of its total net sales from customers located outside the United States. As of December 31, 2015, we owned approximately 73.3% of the total outstanding common stock of Viskase.

In addition, our Real Estate segment owns an unfinished development property and a partially developed casino, located on approximately 23 acres in Las Vegas, Nevada, which is located in other assets in our consolidated balance sheets as held for sale as of December 31, 2015. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, $27 million and $31 million, respectively, of the net investment in financing leases and net real estate leased to others which is included in property, plant and equipment, net, were pledged to collateralize the payment of nonrecourse mortgages payable.
