Earnings Per Unit [Abstract] |
Net Income Per LP Unit | 11. Net Income Per LP Unit. The components of the computation of basic and diluted income (loss) per LP unit of Icahn Enterprises are as follows: ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | Three Months Ended March 31,
​ |  | 2020 |  | 2019
​ | ​ | (in millions, except per unit amounts)
Net loss attributable to Icahn Enterprises | ​ | $ | (1,384) |  | $ | (394)
Net loss attributable to Icahn Enterprises allocated to limited partners (98.01% allocation) | ​ | $ | (1,356) | ​ | $ | (386)
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
Basic and diluted loss per LP unit | ​ | $ | (6.34) | ​ | $ | (2.02)
Basic and diluted weighted average LP units outstanding | ​ |  | 214 | ​ |  | 191
​ As their effect would have been anti-dilutive, four million and two million weighted average units have been excluded from the calculation of diluted income per LP unit for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. LP Unit Transactions Unit Distributions On February 26, 2020, Icahn Enterprises declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $2.00 per depositary unit in which each depositary unitholder had the option to make an election to receive either cash or additional depositary units. Because the depositary unitholders had the election to receive the distribution either in cash or additional depositary units, we recorded a unit distribution liability of $428 million as the unit distribution had not been made as of March 31, 2020. In addition, the unit distribution liability, which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, is considered a potentially dilutive security and is considered in the calculation of diluted income per LP unit as disclosed above. Any difference between the liability recorded and the amount representing the aggregate value of the number of depositary units distributed and cash paid would be charged to equity. On April 28, 2020, Icahn Enterprises distributed an aggregate 123,453 depositary units to unitholders electing to receive depositary units. In connection with this distribution, aggregate cash distributions to all depositary unitholders was $423 million in April 2020, primarily due to Mr. Icahn and his affiliates’ significant ownership of Icahn Enterprises’ depositary units. 2019 At-The-Market Offering On May 2, 2019, Icahn Enterprises announced the commencement of its “at-the-market” offering pursuant to its Open Market Sale Agreement, pursuant to which Icahn Enterprises may sell its depositary units, from time to time, during the term of the program ending on March 31, 2021, for up to $400 million in aggregate sale proceeds. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, Icahn Enterprises sold 107,131, depositary units pursuant to this agreement, resulting in gross proceeds of $7 million. As of March 31, 2020, Icahn Enterprises may sell its depositary units for up to an additional $339 million in aggregate sale proceeds pursuant to this agreement. No assurance can be made that any or all amounts will be sold during the term of the program. 2017 Incentive Plan During the three months ended March 31, 2019, Icahn Enterprises distributed 10,656 depositary units, net of payroll withholdings, with respect to certain restricted depositary units and deferred unit awards that vested during the period in connection with the Icahn Enterprises L.P. 2017 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2017 Incentive Plan”). There were no distributions during the three months ended March 31, 2020. The aggregate impact of the 2017 Incentive Plan is not material with respect to our condensed consolidated financial statements, including the calculation of potentially dilutive units and diluted income per LP unit.
