Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. All statements other than statements of historical fact, including without limitation, statements regarding future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, growth, capital projects, stock or unit repurchases, impacts of legal proceedings, projected costs, prospects, plans and objectives of management are forward looking statements. The words “could”, “believe”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “estimate”, “expect”, “may”, “continue”, “predict”, “potential”, “project”, and similar terms and phrases are intended to identify forward-looking statements.
Although we believe our assumptions concerning future events are reasonable, a number of risks, uncertainties, and other factors could cause actual results and trends to differ materially from those projected or forward looking. Forward looking statements, as well as certain risks, contingencies or uncertainties that may impact our forward-looking statements, include but are not limited to the following:

•the ability to forecast our future financial condition, results of operations, revenues and expenses accurately or at all;
•the effects of transactions involving derivative instruments;
•changes in laws, regulations, rules and policies with respect to crude oil, refined products, other hydrocarbons or renewable feedstocks or products including, without limitation, the export, production, sale or transportation thereof and the actions of the Biden Administration or future administrations that impact oil and gas operations in the United States;

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(unaudited)
(1) Organization and Nature of Business
Organization
CVR Energy, Inc. (“CVR Energy”, “CVR”, “we”, “us”, “our”, or the “Company”) is a diversified holding company primarily engaged in the petroleum refining and marketing industry (the “Petroleum Segment”) and the nitrogen fertilizer manufacturing industry through its interest in CVR Partners, LP, a publicly traded limited partnership (the “Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment” or “CVR Partners”). The Petroleum Segment refines and markets high value transportation fuels primarily in the form of gasoline and diesel fuels. CVR Partners produces and markets nitrogen fertilizers primarily in the form of urea ammonium nitrate (“UAN”) and ammonia. We also produce and market renewable diesel. CVR’s common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “CVI”. Icahn Enterprises L.P. and its affiliates (“IEP”) owned approximately 66% of the Company’s outstanding common stock as of September 30, 2024.
CVR Partners, LP
Interest Holders - As of September 30, 2024, public common unitholders held approximately 63% of CVR Partners’ outstanding common units and CVR Services, LLC (“CVR Services”), a wholly owned subsidiary of CVR Energy, held the remaining approximately 37% of CVR Partners’ outstanding common units. In addition, CVR Services held 100% of the interest in CVR Partners’ general partner, CVR GP, LLC, which held a non-economic general partner interest in CVR Partners as of September 30, 2024. The noncontrolling interest reflected on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets of CVR is only impacted by the results of and distributions from CVR Partners.
Subsequent Events
The Company evaluated subsequent events, if any, that would require an adjustment to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements or require disclosure in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements through the date of issuance of the condensed consolidated financial statements. Where applicable, the notes to these condensed consolidated financial statements have been updated to discuss all significant subsequent events which have occurred.
(2) Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), include the accounts of the Company and its majority-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted from the condensed consolidated financial statements. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2023 audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in CVR Energy’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”).
Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the consolidated results of CVR Partners, which is defined as a variable interest entity (“VIE”). As the 100% owner of the general partner of CVR Partners, the Company has the sole ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of CVR Partners and is considered the primary beneficiary.
In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations of the Company for the periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed.
The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosure of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that will be realized for the year ending December 31, 2024 or any other interim or annual period.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(unaudited)
Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Implemented
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which requires enhanced income tax disclosures that reflect how operations and related tax risks, as well as how tax planning and operational opportunities, affect the tax rate and prospects for future cash flows. This standard is effective for the Company’s annual period beginning January 1, 2025 with early adoption permitted. While the Company does not expect adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements, it currently expects additional disclosures will be included for its annual and interim reporting periods beginning December 31, 2025. The Company does not intend to early adopt this ASU.
In November 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which includes requirements for more robust disclosures about significant segment expenses and information used in assessing segment performance on an annual and interim basis. This standard is effective for the Company’s annual period beginning January 1, 2024 and interim periods beginning January 1, 2025 and should be applied retrospectively to all comparative periods. Early adoption is permitted. While the Company continues to evaluate the effects of adopting this new accounting guidance, it currently expects additional disclosures will be included for its annual and interim reporting periods beginning December 31, 2024.

(1)At September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had $12 million and $13 million of collateral under master netting arrangements not offset against the derivatives within Other current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively, primarily related to initial margin requirements.
The Petroleum Segment’s commodity derivative contracts consist of exchange traded futures, commodity price swaps, and sale and purchase forwards that are measured at fair value using a market approach based on available broker quoted market prices of identical or similar instruments. Similarly, RFS obligations are measured at fair value using a market approach based on available broker quoted market RIN spot prices for each specific or closest vintage year.
The Company had no transfers of assets or liabilities between any of the above levels during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and year ended December 31, 2023.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis
CVR Partners performed a nonrecurring fair value measurement of the equity interest received as part of the 45Q Transaction in January 2023. Such valuation used a combination of the market approach and the discounted cash flow methodology with key inputs including the discount rate, contractual and expected future cash flows, and market multiples. In January 2023, CVR Partners determined the estimated fair value of the consideration received to be $46 million, which is a non-recurring Level 3 measurement, as defined by FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, based on the use of CVR Partners’ own assumptions described above. There are no other assets or liabilities that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis for the periods presented.

(13) Commitments and Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may become party to lawsuits, administrative proceedings, and governmental investigations, including environmental, regulatory, and other matters. The outcome of these matters cannot always be predicted accurately, but the Company accrues liabilities for these matters if the Company has determined that it is probable a loss has been incurred and the loss can be reasonably estimated. While it is not possible to predict the outcome of such proceedings, if one or more of them were decided against us, the Company believes there would be no material impact to its consolidated financial statements. Except as described below, there have been no material changes in the Company’s commitments and contingencies from those disclosed in the 2023 Form 10-K or in the Company’s quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2024.
Unconditional Purchase Obligations
The Company entered into new transportation agreements related to the Petroleum Segment during the third quarter of 2024, and as of September 30, 2024, the Company’s future minimum required payments for all unconditional purchase obligations as defined in FASB ASC Topic 440, Commitments, are as follows:

Crude Oil Supply Agreement
The Petroleum Segment has a crude oil supply agreement with Gunvor USA LLC (“Gunvor”), which commenced on January 1, 2024 (as amended, the “Gunvor Crude Oil Supply Agreement”), pursuant to which Gunvor supplies the Petroleum Segment with certain crude oil and intermediation logistics helping to reduce the amount of inventory held at certain locations and mitigate crude oil pricing risk. The Gunvor Crude Oil Supply Agreement replaced a similar agreement with a different supplier that expired on December 31, 2023. Volumes contracted under these agreements, as a percentage of the total crude oil purchases (in barrels), were approximately 21% and 23% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and 21% and 24% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Gunvor Crude Oil Supply Agreement, which currently extends through January 31, 2026, is subject to automatic one-year renewals following the expiration of the initial term in the absence of either party providing 180 days’ notice of termination.
As part of the transition of the crude oil supply agreement from Vitol to Gunvor, on December 31, 2023, the Company purchased the final inventory remaining under the crude oil supply agreement with Vitol and sold it to Gunvor on January 1, 2024. The inventory purchased from Vitol was included within Inventories on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2023.
45Q Transaction
Under the agreements entered into in connection with the 45Q Transaction, the Company’s indirect subsidiary CRNF is obligated to meet certain minimum quantities of carbon oxide supply each year during the term of the agreement and is subject to fees of up to $15 million per year (reduced pro rata for partial years) to the unaffiliated third-party investors, subject to an overall $45 million cap, if these minimum quantities are not delivered. CVR Partners issued a guarantee to the unaffiliated third-party investors and certain of their affiliates involved in the 45Q Transaction of the payment and performance obligations of CRNF and CVRP JV, which include the aforementioned fees. This guarantee has no impacts on the accounting records of CVR Partners unless the parties fail to comply with the terms of the 45Q Transaction contracts.
Renewable Fuel Standard
Coffeyville Resources Refining & Marketing, LLC (“CRRM”) and Wynnewood Refining Company, LLC (“WRC”, and together with CRRM, the “obligated-party subsidiaries”) are subject to the RFS implemented by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”), which requires obligated parties to either blend renewable fuels into their transportation fuels or purchase renewable fuel credits, known as RINs, in lieu of blending. The Petroleum Segment’s obligated-party subsidiaries are not able to blend the majority of their transportation fuels with renewable fuels and, unless their RFS obligations are waived or exempted, must either purchase RINs or obtain waiver credits for cellulosic biofuels in order to comply with the RFS. Additionally, the Petroleum Segment’s obligated-party subsidiaries purchase RINs generated from our renewable diesel operations, whose operating results are not included in either of our reportable segments, to partially satisfy their RFS obligations.
The Company’s obligated-party subsidiaries recognized an expense of $86 million and a benefit of $135 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and an expense of $65 million and a benefit of $99 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, for their compliance with the RFS (based on the 2020 through 2024 renewable volume obligation (“RVO”), for the respective periods, excluding the impacts of any exemptions or waivers to which the Company’s obligated-party subsidiaries may be entitled). The recognized amounts are included within Cost of materials and other in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and represent costs to comply with the RFS obligation through purchasing of RINs not otherwise reduced by blending of ethanol, biodiesel, or renewable diesel. At each reporting period, to the extent RINs purchased and generated through blending are less than the RFS obligation (excluding the impact of exemptions or waivers to which the Company may be entitled), the remaining position is valued using RIN market prices at period end for each specific or closest vintage year. As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s obligated-party subsidiaries’ RFS positions were approximately $374 million and $329 million, respectively, and are recorded in Other current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Litigation
Call Option Coverage Case – The lawsuits involving the Company and certain of its affiliates (the “Call Defendants”) and the Company’s primary and excess insurers (the “Insurers”) relating to insurance coverage for settlement by the Call Defendants of the consolidated lawsuits filed by purported former unitholders of CVR Refining, LP (“CVR Refining”) on behalf of themselves and an alleged class of similarly situated unitholders relating to the Company’s exercise of the call option under the CVR Refining Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership remain pending, with mediation scheduled for November 2024. While these cases remain pending, the Company does not expect their outcome have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
RFS Disputes – WRC has filed petitions for small refinery exemptions (“SREs”) for the 2017 through 2024 compliance periods, which petitions are in various stages of review by the EPA and/or various courts.
Regarding WRC’s petitions for the 2017 to 2021 compliance periods which, together with the SRE petitions from certain other small refineries, had been denied by the EPA in 2022 (the “2022 Denials”), the EPA has yet to act on those petitions after the EPA’s denials were vacated by the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit (the “Fifth Circuit”) in November 2023 and remanded back to the EPA on the grounds that the EPA’s denials were impermissibly retroactive and that the EPA’s interpretation was contrary to law and arbitrary and capricious as applied to petitioners’ exemptions. In May 2024, the EPA and certain biofuels groups sought certiorari before the Supreme Court of the United States (“SCOTUS”) seeking review of whether venue for these challenges to the 2022 Denials lies exclusively in the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Colombia Circuit (the “DC Circuit”), which certiorari was granted in October 2024. Oral argument is expected sometime in 2025.
In July 2024, the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Colombia Circuit (the “DC Circuit”) ruled in favor of certain small refineries also challenging the 2022 Denials, holding that the 2022 Denials as applicable to those small refineries was arbitrary and capricious, vacating such denials and remanding such petitions back to the EPA. The DC Circuit also dismissed a challenge brought by biofuel producers to the EPA’s alternative compliance action, concluding that the petitioners had not established any harm from EPA’s decision and therefore lacked standing to sue. WRC’s SRE petition for the 2022 compliance period, which was denied by the EPA in July 2023 largely on the same grounds as the 2022 Denials, remains stayed until issuance of the mandate in the DC Circuit case.
WRC’s lawsuit filed suit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas seeking, among other relief, a declaration that the Administrator of the EPA violated the Clean Air Act by failing to timely rule on WRC’s SRE petition for the 2023 compliance period within 90 days following receipt and compelling the Administrator to rule on WRC’s 2023 SRE petition by an expeditious date certain, remains pending. Similarly, the EPA has not yet ruled on WRC’s petition for the 2024 compliance period, which ruling is due before the end of 2024.
As these matters are in various stages, the Company cannot yet determine at this time the outcomes of these matters. While we intend to prosecute these actions vigorously, if these matters are ultimately concluded in a manner adverse to the Company, they could have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
Guaranty Dispute – During a mediation conducted in September 2024, Exxon Mobil Corporation (“XOM”) formally demanded, pursuant to a guaranty claimed by XOM to have been issued in its favor in 1993 by a subsidiary of CVR Energy, that such subsidiary defend and indemnify it against claims by numerous property owners in Louisiana alleging contamination from historic well operations. The Company disputes the validity of the alleged guaranty and has filed suit in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware for declaratory judgment relating thereto, which suit remains pending. As this matter remains in its early stages, the Company cannot yet determine whether its outcome will have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
(14) Business Segments
CVR Energy’s revenues are primarily derived from the two reportable segments: Petroleum and Nitrogen Fertilizer. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based primarily on segment operating income (loss) and Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (“EBITDA”). For the purposes of the business segments disclosure, the Company presents operating income (loss) as it is the most comparable measure to the amounts presented on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The other amounts reflect renewable fuels transactions, intercompany eliminations,

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 21, 2024 (the “2023 Form 10-K”), and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes and with the statistical information and financial data appearing in this Report. Results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of results to be attained for any other period. See “Important Information Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” References to “CVR Energy”, the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our”, may refer to consolidated subsidiaries of CVR Energy, including CVR Refining, LP or CVR Partners, LP, as the context may require.
Reflected in this discussion and analysis is how management views the Company’s current financial condition and results of operations, along with key external variables and management’s actions that may impact the Company. Understanding significant external variables, such as market conditions, weather, and seasonal trends, among others, and management actions taken to manage the Company, address external variables, among others, will increase users’ understanding of the Company, its financial condition and results of operations. This discussion may contain forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this Report.
Company Overview
CVR Energy is a diversified holding company primarily engaged in the petroleum refining and marketing industry (the “Petroleum Segment”) and the nitrogen fertilizer manufacturing industry through its interest in CVR Partners, LP, a publicly traded limited partnership (the “Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment” or “CVR Partners”). The Petroleum Segment is an “independent petroleum refiner”, in that it does not have crude oil exploration or production operations and is a marketer of high value transportation fuels primarily in the form of gasoline and diesel fuels. CVR Partners produces and markets nitrogen fertilizers primarily in the form of urea ammonium nitrate (“UAN”) and ammonia. CVR Energy also produces and markets renewable diesel. Our renewable diesel operations are not allocated or aggregated to our reportable segments discussed below.
We operate under two reportable segments: Petroleum and Nitrogen Fertilizer, which are referred to in this document as our “Petroleum Segment” and our “Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment”, respectively.
In recent years, we have focused on several decarbonization initiatives, including completion of construction of the renewable diesel and renewable feedstock pre-treatment units at the Wynnewood Refinery, creation of our Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) committee and the publication of ESG reports, and the restructuring of our organization to better align with management and financial reporting. We currently expect to continue to explore options to decarbonize our business in areas with attractive economics, without sole reliance on government subsidies, and in ways intended to support our Mission and Values.
Strategy and Goals
The Company has adopted Mission and Values, which articulate the Company’s expectations for how it and its employees do business each and every day.
Mission and Core Values
Our Mission is to be a top tier North American renewable fuels, petroleum refining, and nitrogen-based fertilizer company as measured by safe and reliable operations, superior performance and profitable growth. The foundation of how we operate is built on five core Values:
•Safety - We always put safety first. The protection of our employees, contractors and communities is paramount. We have an unwavering commitment to safety above all else. If it’s not safe, then we don’t do it.

Table of Contents
•Environment - We care for our environment. Complying with all regulations and minimizing any environmental impact from our operations is essential. We understand our obligation to the environment and that it’s our duty to protect it.
•Integrity - We require high business ethics. We comply with the law and practice sound corporate governance. We only conduct business one way—the right way with integrity.
•Corporate Citizenship - We are proud members of the communities where we operate. We are good neighbors and know that it’s a privilege we can’t take for granted. We seek to make a positive economic and social impact through our financial donations and the contributions of time, knowledge and talent of our employees to the places where we live and work.
•Continuous Improvement - We believe in both individual and team success. We foster accountability under a performance-driven culture that supports creative thinking, teamwork, diversity and personal development so that employees can realize their maximum potential. We use defined work practices for consistency, efficiency and to create value across the organization.
Our core Values are driven by our people, inform the way we do business each and every day and enhance our ability to accomplish our mission and related strategic objectives.
Strategic Objectives
We have outlined the following strategic objectives to drive the accomplishment of our mission:
•Environmental, Health & Safety (“EH&S”) - We aim to achieve continuous improvement in all EH&S areas through ensuring our people’s commitment to environmental, health and safety comes first, the refinement of existing policies, continuous training, and enhanced monitoring procedures.
•Reliability - Our goal is to achieve industry-leading utilization rates at our facilities through safe and reliable operations. We are focusing on improvements in day-to-day plant operations, identifying alternative sources for plant inputs to reduce lost time due to third-party operational constraints, and optimizing our commercial and marketing functions to maintain plant operations at their highest level.
•Market Capture - We continuously evaluate opportunities to improve the facilities’ realized pricing at the gate and reduce variable costs incurred in production to maximize our capture of market opportunities.
•Financial Discipline - We strive to be as efficient as possible by maintaining low operating costs and disciplined deployment of capital.
Potential Strategic Transactions
As previously disclosed in a Schedule 13D amendment filed on March 18, 2024, Icahn Enterprises L.P. and its affiliates (“IEP”) and the Company are considering potential strategic transactions available to the Company and our subsidiaries, which may include the acquisition of additional entities, assets or businesses, including the acquisition of material amounts of refining assets through negotiated mergers or stock or asset purchase agreements by the Company or our subsidiaries. IEP may participate in such acquisitions, including by providing financing to us or our subsidiaries through the acquisition of additional equity of us or our subsidiaries, providing loans to us or our subsidiaries or otherwise. In addition, IEP and the Company are considering strategic options involving CVR Partners, which may include the acquisition by IEP, the Company, a combination of IEP and the Company or other affiliated entities of some or all of the outstanding common units of CVR Partners not already indirectly owned by the Company (the “public common units”), the sale of CVR Partners or the Company’s interest therein, or other transactions. Any such acquisition, sale or transaction could be effectuated through open market purchases, tender or exchange offers, exercise of the limited call right contained in CVR Partners’ limited partnership agreement, value enhancing partnerships, negotiated merger transactions, privately negotiated transactions, sale transactions or otherwise. At this time, there can be no assurance that IEP or the Company will pursue any such potential strategic transactions or that any transactions, if pursued, will be completed on attractive terms or at all.

Table of Contents
As of September 30, 2024, public common unitholders held approximately 63% of CVR Partners’ outstanding common units and CVR Services, LLC (“CVR Services”), a wholly owned subsidiary of CVR Energy, held the remaining approximately 37% of CVR Partners’ outstanding common units. In addition, CVR Services held 100% of the interest in CVR Partners’ general partner, CVR GP, LLC, as of September 30, 2024. IEP owned approximately 66% of the Company’s outstanding common stock as of September 30, 2024.
Recent Developments
As previously disclosed, the Wynnewood Refinery experienced a fire incident in the second quarter of 2024 with damages limited to pipe racks and pumps in the naphtha processing units. No employees or contractors were injured in the incident, and it did not impact the operations at the Coffeyville Refinery. During the current quarter, the Company incurred additional expenses related to this incident of approximately $6 million, excluding insurance recoveries. All necessary repairs have been completed and the plant was fully operational in July 2024.
As described further below, volatile commodity pricing and higher industry utilization and oversupply have had an unfavorable impact on our business and have negatively impacted our cash from operating activities and liquidity. As a result, the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) elected to suspend payment of the cash dividend, defer new growth capital spending, and reduce certain expected capital expenditures, as further discussed in “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below.
Industry Factors and Market Indicators
General Business Environment
Geopolitical Matters - The conflict in the Middle East, which began in October 2023 and has continued to escalate, and the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war can significantly impact global oil, fertilizer, and agriculture markets. These conflicts pose significant geopolitical risks to global markets, raise concerns of major implications, such as the enforcement of sanctions, could contribute to further oil price volatility, and disrupt the production and trade of fertilizer, grains, and feedstock through several means, such as trade restrictions. The ultimate outcome of these conflicts, or further escalation or expansion thereof, and any associated market disruptions are difficult to predict and may affect our business, operations, and cash flows in unforeseen ways.
Regulatory Environment - In addition to existing regulations like the Renewable Fuel Standard (“RFS”) of the Clean Air Act, which significantly impacts our business, there have been several proposed and enacted climate-related rules and compliance requirements, in various stages of approval, that, if finalized, could demand considerable compliance efforts and could impact our disclosure controls and procedures as well as require additional disclosures in our regulatory filings. In addition, the current political environment and the yet-unknown results of the upcoming presidential election in the United States create uncertainty regarding existing and future laws, regulations, policies, or rulings, including the reinterpretation or amplification thereof by regulators or others, which may materially impact our business, operations, compliance costs, results and market stability.
Petroleum Segment
The earnings and cash flows of the Petroleum Segment are primarily affected by the relationship between refined product prices and the prices for crude oil and other feedstocks that are processed and blended into refined products together with the cost of refinery compliance, including the cost of compliance with RFS regulations. The cost to acquire crude oil and other feedstocks and the price for which refined products are ultimately sold depends on factors beyond the Petroleum Segment’s control, including the supply of and demand for crude oil, as well as gasoline, distillate, and other refined products which, in turn, depend on, among other factors, changes in domestic and foreign economies, driving habits, weather conditions, domestic and foreign political affairs, production levels, the availability or permissibly of imports and exports, the marketing of competitive fuels, and the extent of government regulations. Because the Petroleum Segment applies first-in, first-out (“FIFO”) accounting to value its inventory, crude oil price movements may impact net income as a result of changes in the value of its unhedged inventory. The effect of changes in crude oil prices on the Petroleum Segment’s results of operations is partially influenced by the rate at which the processing of refined products adjusts to reflect these changes.
The prices of crude oil and other feedstocks and refined products are also affected by other factors, such as product pipeline capacity, system inventory, local and regional market conditions, inflation, and the operating levels of other refineries. Crude

oil costs and the prices of refined products have historically been subject to wide fluctuations. Widespread expansion or upgrades of third-party facilities, price volatility, international political and economic developments, and other factors are likely to continue to play an important role in refining industry economics. These factors can impact, among other things, the level of inventories in the market, resulting in price volatility and a reduction in product margins. Moreover, the refining industry typically experiences seasonal fluctuations in demand for refined products, such as increases in the demand for gasoline during the summer driving season and for volatile seasonal exports of diesel from the United States Gulf Coast. Specific factors impacting the Company’s operations are outlined below.
Current Market Outlook
•Refined product demand declined 4% nationwide in the third quarter of 2024 from the pre-pandemic third quarter of 2019. Group 3 demand has been relatively consistent compared to other parts of the country following the pandemic. We characterize current crack spreads just below mid-cycle levels.
•Winter 2023/2024 weather was warmer than average in North America and Europe and, when combined with natural gas conservation measures, has caused demand and prices for natural gas to fall significantly, which contributed to the flattening of the global cost curve and has reduced the U.S. refiners’ advantage compared to refiners in Europe. If similar conditions are experienced during the 2024/2025 winter, these impacts could persist into 2025.
•Industrial production has slowed since the second half of 2023, and truck, rail, and ship tonnage and freight volumes were reduced, which reduced distillate pricing in the fourth quarter of 2023 and continued into 2024. In addition, distillate crack spreads continue to be pressured by the low price levels of natural gas causing a lack of distillate demand to generate electricity around the world. Moreover, new LNG projects coming online and expansion of export capacity in the United States has contributed to the increase of global supply of natural gas and thus downward pressure on prices, and may also support fleet shifting from diesel to LNG. Gasoline and distillate pricing declined significantly through the end of the third quarter of 2024.
•Shale oil production continues to increase in the shale oil basins, albeit at a slower pace than in prior years, including in the Anadarko Basin. Crude oil exports have sustained a 4 million bpd rate, and we believe the Petroleum Segment benefits from these exports through the Brent crude differential to WTI, as do all refineries in PADD II.
•Refining capacity is increasing significantly around the world. Major projects have started up in the Middle East and Asia and others are in progress, specifically in Mexico and Africa. Refining capacity in the United States has also increased approximately 500,000 bpd from pandemic levels mainly due to expansion projects. While these ongoing projects may encounter various challenges and come to market slower than anticipated, they have begun to and should have a growing impact global oil and refined product flows. At the same time, these capacity expansions could be offset by additional renewable diesel conversions and further refinery fleet rationalization through planned shutdowns or currently unplanned shutdowns due to future economic constraints given refined product consumption is slowing in the United States and remains weak in Europe.
•While renewable identification number (“RIN”) prices increased slightly at the end of the third quarter of 2024, they are still lower than the third quarter of 2023. Production of renewable fuels in the United States continues to increase as new plants start up, which we expect to continue through 2025. We also expect biomass-based diesel RIN (“D4”) production to exceed the renewable volume obligation (“RVO”) significantly going forward, creating a RIN surplus. In June 2023, the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) set the D4 RVO for 2023, 2024, and 2025 at 2.82, 3.04, and 3.35 billion, respectively.
•In the third quarter of 2024, new electric vehicle sales in the United States increased approximately 11% from the third quarter of 2023. In 2022, miles per gallon of the new auto fleet continued to increase, averaging 26 miles per gallon (“MPG”). The EPA expects the new fleet average to have increased in 2023 by approximately 1 MPG. Vehicle miles traveled continues to increase but the effect of electric vehicle penetration in the fleet is clear and present. We expect this trend to continue.
•Asian refiners appear to be benefiting from discounted crude oil offered by sanctioned countries like Russia and Iran, adding product to an oversupplied global market.
•While the Chinese government has taken several steps to spur economic activity, the Chinese economy is still weighed by a weak property sector and lower domestic demand for transportation fuels, and any lasting effects remain to be seen.

Regulatory Environment
We continue to be impacted by significant volatility and costs associated with current and proposed laws, rules, regulations and policies, including the reinterpretation and amplification thereof, relating to climate change, the RFS, energy transition and related matters.
•Certain of the Petroleum Segment’s subsidiaries are subject to the RFS (collectively, the “obligated-party subsidiaries”), which, each year, absent exemptions or waivers, requires such obligated-party subsidiaries to blend renewable fuels with transportation fuels, purchase RINs in lieu of blending, or otherwise face liability. Our cost to comply with the RFS is dependent upon a variety of factors, which include but are not limited to the availability of ethanol and biodiesel for blending at our refineries and downstream terminals or RINs for purchase, the actions of RIN market participants including non-obligated parties, the price at which RINs can be purchased, transportation fuel and renewable diesel production levels and pricing including potential discounts thereto related to the RFS, the mix of our products, our refining margins and other factors, all of which can vary significantly from period to period, as well as certain waivers or exemptions to which we may be entitled. Our costs to comply with the RFS further depend on the consistent, timely, and legal administration of the RFS program by the EPA, including the EPA’s unlawful failure to establish the RVOs by their statutory deadlines, its subsequent promulgation of RVOs exceeding the blendwall, its delay in issuing and refusal to issue decisions on pending small refinery exemption (“SRE”) petitions, its subsequent denial of those SRE petitions, most of which have been overturned by courts, and its enabling non-obligated parties to generate, hoard and sell RINs. Our costs to comply with the RFS are also impacted by, and dependent upon the outcome of, the numerous lawsuits filed by multiple refiners including our obligated-party subsidiaries, biofuels groups and others. Refer to Part I, Item 1, Note 13 (“Commitments and Contingencies”) in this Report. As a result, our costs to comply with RFS (excluding the impacts of any exemptions or waivers to which the Petroleum Segment’s obligated-party subsidiaries may be entitled) increased significantly throughout 2022, remained significant in 2023 and is expected to remain significant through 2024 and beyond.
•In March 2024, the EPA finalized new motor vehicle emissions standards for light-, medium-, and heavy-duty vehicles for model year 2027 and beyond. New heavy-truck requirements are also being proposed. As a result of these new standards, the EPA is expected to propose new automobile limits requiring at least 54% of new vehicles sold to be electric by 2030. In the United States in the third quarter of 2024, approximately 9% of new-vehicle sales were EVs.
•Congress has several potential bills pending that would extend the Blenders Tax Credit (“BTC”) with other tax extenders, but their future is unknown at this point. While extensions of this tax incentive have been granted close to, and even after, expiration dates in the past, we believe provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act that create the Production Tax Credit incentive may signal the end of the BTC. In any case, the credits will be significantly reduced if the BTC is not renewed, which is likely to affect RIN prices.
Company Initiatives
•Our Wynnewood Refinery has a renewable diesel unit and a pretreatment unit. The renewable diesel unit at the Wynnewood Refinery has the flexibility to be returned to hydrocarbon processing service primarily through a catalyst change depending on market conditions including but not limited to renewable diesel margins, contractual obligations and other factors. The pretreatment unit is designed to lower our feedstock costs and enable us to process a wider variety of renewable diesel feedstocks at the Wynnewood Refinery, most of which have a lower carbon intensity than soybean oil and generate additional Low Carbon Fuel Standard credits. Wynnewood Refining Company, LLC (“WRC”) continues to seek, and pursue in court, SREs. The Wynnewood Refinery has also been assessing a project to produce sustainable aviation fuels at this plant assuming we can find a third-party for a guaranteed off take at a formula price.
•The Company is evaluating a potential renewables project near its Coffeyville location, the approval of which would be subject to numerous conditions and requirements including, but not limited to, approval of our Board, regulators, and potential other third parties, including our ability to enter into an agreement with third parties to fund such project. This project, if approved and pursued, could enable the capture of synergies with the Petroleum Segment as our Coffeyville Refinery has excess hydrogen capacity as well as potential access to third-party carbon capture use and storage.
•As part of an agreement the Company entered into with an unaffiliated party, a fuel-by-rail facility was built during the first quarter of 2024, which is now in operation, at a property adjacent to the Coffeyville Refinery intended to allow the Company to sell product to customers that ship refined products to higher priced markets primarily in PADD IV and V. This unaffiliated party has agreed to operate the facility under a take-or-pay agreement for an initial term of two years.

•The Company has undertaken a project to replace the hydrofluoric acid catalyst in the alkylation unit at its Wynnewood Refinery with a fixed bed catalyst system, which should expand the alkylation unit by approximately 2,500 bpd, increase product capture by reducing propylene production and increase production of premium gasoline, and eliminate hydrofluoric acid inventory onsite. The capital investment is estimated at $136 million.
•In April 2024, the Board approved a distillate yield improvement project at the Wynnewood Refinery to modify one of the vacuum towers, which may increase distillate production at Wynnewood by up to approximately 4,000 bpd. Final completion is currently expected in 2026 at a capital cost of less than $15 million. The Company is also studying a similar project at Coffeyville. In connection with our settlement with the EPA on certain environmental issues at the Coffeyville Refinery, the Company plans to install a flare gas recovery system at a cost of approximately $50 million, which is expected to be operational in late 2026.
As of September 30, 2024, we have an estimated liability of $374 million for the Petroleum Segment’s obligated-party subsidiaries compliance with the RFS for 2020 through 2024, which consists of approximately 467 million RINs, excluding open, fixed-price commitments to purchase a net 27 million RINs. The Company’s open RFS position, which does not consider open commitments expected to settle in future periods or the impact of any waivers or exemptions, is marked-to-market each period at spot price and thus significant market volatility, as experienced in late 2022, 2023, and 2024 to date, could impact our RFS expense from period to period.
Market Indicators
NYMEX WTI crude oil is an industry wide benchmark that is utilized in the market pricing of a barrel of crude oil. The pricing differences between other crude oils and WTI, known as differentials, show how the market for other crude oils such as WCS, White Cliffs (“Condensate”), Brent Crude (“Brent”), and Midland WTI (“Midland”) are trending. Due to the Russia-Ukraine war, the conflict in the Middle East, and, in each case, actions taken by governments and others in response thereto, refined product prices have experienced extreme volatility. As a result of the current environment, refining margins have been and should continue to be volatile.
As a performance benchmark and a comparison with other industry participants, we utilize NYMEX and Group 3 crack spreads. These crack spreads are a measure of the difference between market prices for crude oil and refined products and are a commonly used proxy within the industry to estimate or identify trends in refining margins. Crack spreads can fluctuate significantly over time as a result of market conditions and supply and demand balances. The NYMEX 2-1-1 crack spread is calculated using two barrels of WTI producing one barrel of NYMEX RBOB Gasoline (“RBOB”) and one barrel of NYMEX NY Harbor ULSD (“HO”). The Group 3 2-1-1 crack spread is calculated using two barrels of WTI crude oil producing one barrel of Group 3 sub-octane gasoline and one barrel of Group 3 ultra-low sulfur diesel.
Both NYMEX 2-1-1 and Group 3 2-1-1 crack spreads decreased during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The NYMEX 2-1-1 crack spread averaged $25.54 per barrel during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $36.48 per barrel in the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The Group 3 2-1-1 crack spread averaged $19.25 per barrel during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to $35.10 per barrel during the nine months ended September 30, 2023.
Average monthly prices for RINs decreased 47.5% during the third quarter of 2024 compared to the same period of 2023. On a blended barrel basis (calculated using applicable RVO percentages), RINs approximated $3.89 per barrel during the third quarter of 2024 compared to $7.42 per barrel during the third quarter of 2023.

Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment
Within the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment, earnings and cash flows from operations are primarily affected by the relationship between nitrogen fertilizer product prices, utilization, and operating costs and expenses, including pet coke and natural gas feedstock costs.

September 30, 2024 | 31

Table of Contents
The price at which nitrogen fertilizer products are ultimately sold depends on numerous factors, including the global supply and demand for nitrogen fertilizer products, which, in turn, depends on world grain demand and production levels, changes in world population, the cost and availability of fertilizer transportation infrastructure, weather conditions, the availability of imports, the availability and price of feedstocks to produce nitrogen fertilizer, and the extent of government intervention in agriculture markets, among other factors. These factors can impact, among other things, the level of inventories in the markets, resulting in price and product margin volatility. Moreover, the industry typically experiences seasonal fluctuations in demand for nitrogen fertilizer products.
Certain governmental regulations and incentives associated with the automobile transportation and agricultural industries, including the ones related to corn-based ethanol and sustainable aviation fuel production or consumption, can impact, and have directly impacted, our business. In June 2023, the EPA announced the renewable volume obligations for 2023, 2024, and 2025 which maintained the conventional biofuel blending level at 15 billion gallons. These actions lead us to believe that the demand on food, in particular corn, for fuel will remain strong for the foreseeable future and support farmer economics that incentivize the use of nitrogen-based fertilizers.
In contrast, in March 2024, the EPA finalized motor vehicle emission standards for light-, medium-, and heavy-duty vehicles for model year 2027 and beyond, which could significantly reduce the use of internal combustion engine vehicles and the demand for liquid fuels, including ethanol. New heavy-truck requirements are also being proposed. In 2023, production of ethanol consumed approximately 38% of the annual United States corn crop used by the market.
Market Indicators
While there is risk of shorter-term volatility given the inherent nature of the commodity cycle and governmental and geopolitical risks, the Company believes the long-term fundamentals for the U.S. nitrogen fertilizer industry remain intact. The Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment views the anticipated combination of (i) increasing global population, (ii) decreasing arable land per capita, (iii) continued evolution to more protein-based diets in developing countries, (iv) sustained use of corn and soybeans as feedstock for the domestic production of ethanol and other renewable fuels, and (v) positioning at the lower end of the global cost curve should provide a solid foundation for nitrogen fertilizer producers in the United States over the longer term.
Corn and soybeans are two major crops planted by farmers in North America. Corn crops result in the depletion of the amount of nitrogen within the soil in which it is grown, which in turn, results in the need for this nutrient to be replenished after each growing cycle. Unlike corn, soybeans are able to obtain most of their own nitrogen through a process known as “N fixation”. As such, upon harvesting of soybeans, the soil retains a certain amount of nitrogen which results in lower demand for nitrogen fertilizer for the following corn planting cycle. Due to these factors, nitrogen fertilizer consumers generally operate a balanced corn-soybean rotational planting cycle as shown by the chart presented below.
The relationship between the total acres planted for both corn and soybeans has a direct impact on the overall demand for nitrogen products, as the market and demand for nitrogen increases with increased corn acres and decreases with increased soybean acres. Additionally, an estimated 14 billion pounds of soybean oil is expected to be used in producing cleaner renewable fuels in marketing year 2024/2025. Multiple refiners have announced renewable diesel expansion projects for 2024 and beyond, which should only increase the demand for soybeans and potentially for corn and canola.
The United States Department of Agriculture (“USDA”) estimates that in spring 2024 farmers planted 91 million corn acres, representing a decrease of 4% compared to 95 million corn acres in 2023. Planted soybean acres are estimated to be 87 million, representing an increase of 4% compared to 84 million soybean acres in 2023. The combined estimated corn and soybean planted acres of 178 million represents a nominal decrease compared to the acreage planted in 2023. Due to lower input costs in 2024 for corn planting and the relative grain prices of corn versus soybeans, economics have favored planting corn compared to soybeans in 2024. Inventory levels of corn and soybeans are expected to be supportive of grain prices for the remainder of 2024.
Ethanol is blended with gasoline to meet RFS requirements and for its octane value. Since 2010, ethanol production has historically consumed 38% of the U.S. corn crop used by the market, so demand for corn generally rises and falls with ethanol demand, as shown by the chart below.

Weather continues to be a critical variable for crop production. Even with high planted acres and above trendline yields per acre for corn in the United States, global inventory levels for corn and soybeans remain near historical 10-year averages and prices have remained elevated. Demand for nitrogen fertilizer, as well as other crop inputs, was strong for the spring 2024 planting season, primarily due to elevated grain prices and favorable weather conditions for planting.
Fertilizer input costs have been volatile since the fall of 2021. Natural gas prices were elevated in the fall of 2022 due to shortages in Europe and demand being driven by building natural gas storage for winter. Winter 2022/2023 weather was warmer than average in Europe and, when combined with natural gas conservation measures, caused demand and prices for natural gas in Europe to fall significantly in the first quarter of 2023 and remain below the 2021/2022 price levels. The decline in natural gas prices, and the resulting capacity curtailments, among other factors, has led to a significant reduction in the price for nitrogen fertilizer from peak prices. While we expect that natural gas prices might remain below the elevated levels experienced in 2022 in the near term, we believe that the structural shortage of natural gas in Europe will continue to be a source of volatility for the rest of 2024 through 2026. Although pet coke prices had been elevated since 2021 due to higher natural gas prices compared to historical levels, as natural gas prices fell in 2023, third-party pet coke prices have declined into 2024 and are expected to decline further in 2025.
CVR Partners Initiatives
CVR Partners has been conducting engineering studies on the potential to utilize natural gas as an optional feedstock to pet coke at its facility in Coffeyville, Kansas (the “Coffeyville Fertilizer Facility”). Based on these studies, CVR Partners believes the Coffeyville Fertilizer Facility could utilize either natural gas or pet coke to produce nitrogen fertilizer by making certain modifications to the plant. If this project is approved by the board of directors of CVR Partners’ general partner (the “UAN GP Board”) and successfully implemented, it could allow CVR Partners to choose the optimal feedstock mix for production and would make the Coffeyville Fertilizer Facility the only nitrogen fertilizer plant in the United States with that feedstock flexibility.

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 versus September 30, 2023 (Consolidated)
Overview - For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company’s operating loss and net loss were $113 million and $122 million, respectively, compared to operating income and net income of $445 million and $354 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company’s operating income and net income were $37 million and $5 million, respectively, compared to operating income and net income of $1.0 billion and $781 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Refer to our discussion of each segment’s results of operations below for further information.
Income Tax (Benefit) Expense - Income tax benefit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $6 million and $14 million, or 4.6% and 155.0% of loss before income tax, respectively, compared to income tax expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 of $84 million and $185 million, or 19.3% and 19.2% of income before income tax, respectively. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily due to a decrease in overall pretax earnings from the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. In addition, the change in the effective tax rate was primarily due to changes in pretax earnings attributable to noncontrolling interest and the impact of

Petroleum Segment Financial Highlights (Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 versus September 30, 2023)
Overview - For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Petroleum Segment’s operating loss and net loss were $119 million and $110 million, respectively, compared to operating income and net income of $431 million and $460 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2023. These declines were primarily due to decreases in gasoline and distillate crack spreads, coupled with unfavorable impacts from unplanned outages at both refineries and increased RFS related expenses. The unplanned outages during the 2024 period were partially related to external power supply interruptions, which resulted in estimated lost profit opportunities of approximately $13 million. These variances were partially offset by a favorable derivatives impact in the current period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Petroleum Segment’s operating income and net income were $9 million and $35 million, respectively, compared to operating income and net income of $838 million and $913 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Similarly, these declines were primarily due to decreases in gasoline and distillate crack spreads, decreased production and increased maintenance costs resulting from the fire at the Wynnewood Refinery during severe weather (the “Wynnewood Fire”) and the unplanned outages at both refineries, coupled with increased RFS related expenses, partially offset by a favorable derivatives impact in the current period.

Net Sales - For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, net sales for the Petroleum Segment was $1.6 billion and $5.2 billion, respectively, compared to $2.3 billion and $6.3 billion for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The decrease in net sales for both periods was driven by lower refined product prices resulting from elevated inventory levels and reduced demand, along with a decline in sales volumes as a result of the Wynnewood Fire and an unplanned outage at the Coffeyville Refinery.

Q3 Refining Margin (1) |  | YTD Refining Margin (1)

(1)See “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” section below for reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures shown above.
Refining Margin - For the three months ended September 30, 2024, refining margin was $44 million, or $2.53 per throughput barrel, compared to $607 million, or $31.05 per throughput barrel, for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The primary factors contributing to the $563 million decrease in refining margin were:
•A decrease in the Group 3 2-1-1 crack spread of $19.70 per barrel, driven by a tightening of gasoline and distillate crack spreads primarily due to increased inventory levels and lower demand in the current year;
•Unfavorable sales volume impacts related to the unplanned outages at both refineries;
•An increase in RFS related expense of $187 million, which includes unfavorable RINs revaluation adjustments of $232 million;
•Unfavorable inventory valuation impacts of $31 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to favorable inventory valuation impacts of $82 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to falling crude oil and refined product prices in the current period compared to rising crude oil prices in the third quarter of 2023.
Factors partially offsetting the decrease in refining margin were:
•Favorable derivative impacts of $97 million resulting primarily from open crack spread swap positions in the prior year period.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, refining margin was $520 million, or $9.96 per throughput barrel, compared to $1.4 billion, or $24.33 per throughput barrel, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The primary factors contributing to the $831 million decrease in refining margin were:
•A decrease in the Group 3 2-1-1 crack spread of $15.85 per barrel, driven by a tightening of gasoline and distillate crack spreads primarily due to increased inventory levels and lower demand in the current year;
•Unfavorable sales volume impacts resulting from the Wynnewood Fire and unplanned outages at both refineries;
•An increase in RFS related expense of $52 million, which includes unfavorable RINs revaluation adjustments of $196 million;
•Favorable inventory valuation impacts of $8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to favorable inventory valuation impacts of $48 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to a larger increase in crude oil and refined product prices for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Q3 Direct Operating Expenses (1) |  | YTD Direct Operating Expenses (1)

(1)Exclusive of depreciation and amortization expense.
Direct Operating Expenses (Exclusive of Depreciation and Amortization) - For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, direct operating expenses (exclusive of depreciation and amortization) was $100 million and $320 million, respectively, compared to $105 million and $310 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The decrease for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily due to decreased repairs and maintenance. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily due to increased repairs and maintenance from the Wynnewood Fire. On a total throughput barrel basis, direct operating expenses increased to $5.72 and $6.14 per barrel for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, from $5.39 and $5.58 per barrel for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. These increases were primarily due to decreased throughput for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, and increased maintenance and decreased throughput for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense |  | Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses

Depreciation and Amortization Expense - For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, depreciation and amortization expense was $40 million and $133 million, respectively, compared to $50 million and $141 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The decreases in both periods were primarily attributable to certain assets being retired or fully depreciated during the 2024 turnaround, partially offset by fixed asset additions during the 2024 turnaround.
Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses - For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, selling, general and administrative expenses was $23 million and $57 million, respectively, compared to $21 million and $62 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. The increase for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily due to the donation of certain assets to the Coffeyville community. The decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was primarily due to decreased share-based compensation as a result of a decrease in the market price of CVR Energy’s common shares, as well as decreased consulting services and legal services expense during the current period.
Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment
Utilization and Production Volumes - The following tables summarize the consolidated ammonia utilization from the Coffeyville Fertilizer Facility and the East Dubuque Fertilizer Facility. Utilization is an important measure used by management to assess operational output at each of the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment’s facilities. Utilization is calculated as actual tons of ammonia produced divided by capacity.
Utilization is presented solely on ammonia production, rather than on each nitrogen product, as it provides a comparative baseline against industry peers and eliminates the disparity of facility configurations for upgrade of ammonia into other nitrogen products. With production primarily focused on ammonia upgrade capabilities, we believe this measure provides a meaningful view of how we operate.
Gross tons of ammonia represent the total ammonia produced, including ammonia produced that was upgraded into other fertilizer products. Net tons available for sale represents the ammonia available for sale that was not upgraded into other

fertilizer products. The table below presents all of these Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment metrics for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:

| Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
| 2024 |  | 2023 |  | 2024 |  | 2023
Consolidated Ammonia Utilization | 97 | % |  | 99 | % |  | 96 | % |  | 101 | %
Production Volumes (in thousands of tons) |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Ammonia (gross produced) | 212 |  | 217 |  | 626 |  | 660
Ammonia (net available for sale) | 61 |  | 68 |  | 191 |  | 200
UAN | 321 |  | 358 |  | 964 |  | 1,063

On a consolidated basis for the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment’s utilization decreased to 97% compared to 99% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 due to minor unplanned outages at both facilities in the current period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, utilization decreased to 96% compared to 101% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 primarily due to the 14-day planned outage at the Coffeyville Fertilizer Facility during the first quarter of 2024 and other minor unplanned outages at both facilities in the current period.
Sales and Pricing per Ton - Two of the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment’s key operating metrics are total sales volumes for ammonia and UAN, along with the product pricing per ton realized at the gate. Product pricing at the gate represents net sales less freight revenue divided by product sales volume in tons and is shown in order to provide a pricing measure comparable across the fertilizer industry.

| Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
| 2024 |  | 2023 |  | 2024 |  | 2023
Consolidated sales volumes (thousands of tons) |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Ammonia | 62 |  |  | 62 |  |  | 175 |  |  | 183 |
UAN | 336 |  |  | 387 |  |  | 950 |  |  | 1,075 |
Consolidated product pricing at gate (dollars per ton) |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Ammonia | $ | 399 |  |  | $ | 365 |  |  | $ | 481 |  |  | $ | 633 |
UAN | 229 |  |  | 223 |  |  | 254 |  |  | 330 |

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, total product sales volumes were unfavorable compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, due to reduced production volumes resulting from the 14-day planned outage at the Coffeyville Fertilizer Facility during the first quarter of 2024 and minor unplanned outages at both facilities in the current period. For the three months ended September 30, 2024, ammonia and UAN sales prices were favorable compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to lower producer and customer inventories ahead of the fall season. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, ammonia and UAN sales prices were unfavorable compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to lower natural gas prices reducing input costs and driving an overall decrease in market prices during the current period.
Feedstock - Our Coffeyville Fertilizer Facility utilizes a pet coke gasification process to produce nitrogen fertilizer. Our East Dubuque Fertilizer Facility uses natural gas in its production of ammonia. The table below presents these feedstocks for

Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment Financial Highlights (Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024 versus September 30, 2023)
Overview - For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment’s operating income and net income were $11 million and $4 million, respectively, compared to operating income and net income of $8 million and $1 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2023. These increases were driven primarily by a decrease in utility costs due to lower natural gas and electricity prices, combined with favorable personnel costs related to share-based compensation due to a falling unit price in the current period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment’s operating income and net income were $65 million and $43 million, respectively, compared to operating income and net income of $184 million and $162 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. These decreases were driven primarily by lower product sales prices attributable to natural gas prices reducing input costs and driving an overall decrease in market prices, partially offset by favorable utility costs due to lower natural gas and electricity prices.

Net Sales - For the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment’s net sales was $125 million compared to $131 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to unfavorable UAN sales volumes contributing $11 million in lower revenue, partially offset by favorable UAN and ammonia sales prices.
The following table demonstrates the impact of changes in sales volumes and pricing for the primary components of net sales, excluding urea products, freight, and other revenue, for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023:

(in millions) | Price Variance |  | Volume Variance
UAN | $ | 2 |  |  | $ | (11) |
Ammonia | 2 |  |  | — |

The increases in ammonia and UAN sales pricing, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023 were primarily attributable to lower producer and customer inventory levels ahead of the fall season. The decrease in UAN sales volume for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily due to minor unplanned outages in the current period, limiting product available for sale.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment’s net sales was $386 million compared to $540 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. This decrease was primarily due to unfavorable UAN and ammonia pricing conditions and sales volumes which contributed $99 million and $46 million, respectively, in lower revenues.
The following table demonstrates the impact of changes in sales volumes and pricing for the primary components of net sales, excluding urea products, freight, and other revenue, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023:

(in millions) | Price Variance |  | Volume Variance
UAN | $ | (72) |  |  | $ | (41) |
Ammonia | (27) |  |  | (5) |

The decreases in ammonia and UAN sales pricing, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were primarily attributable to lower natural gas prices reducing input costs and driving an overall decrease in market prices, paired with increased global supply of nitrogen fertilizers driven by the restart of previously shut-in production capacity. The decreases in ammonia and UAN sales volumes for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were primarily attributable to lower ammonia and

UAN production volumes as a result of the 14-day planned outage at the Coffeyville Facility during the first quarter of 2024 combined with minor unplanned outage at both facilities in the current period.
Cost of Materials and Other - For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, cost of materials and other was $26 million and $78 million, respectively, compared to $31 million and $101 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023. These decreases were driven primarily by lower natural gas and refinery pet coke prices in the current periods.
Non-GAAP Measures
Our management uses certain non-GAAP performance measures, and reconciliations to those measures, to evaluate current and past performance and prospects for the future to supplement our financial information presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures are important factors in assessing our operating results and profitability and include the performance and liquidity measures defined below.
The following are non-GAAP measures we present for the periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:
EBITDA - Consolidated net income (loss) before (i) interest expense, net, (ii) income tax expense (benefit) and (iii) depreciation and amortization expense.
Petroleum EBITDA and Nitrogen Fertilizer EBITDA - Segment net income (loss) before segment (i) interest expense, net, (ii) income tax expense (benefit), and (iii) depreciation and amortization.
Refining Margin - The difference between our Petroleum Segment net sales and cost of materials and other.
Refining Margin, per Throughput Barrel - Refining Margin divided by the total throughput barrels during the period, which is calculated as total throughput barrels per day times the number of days in the period.
Direct Operating Expenses per Throughput Barrel - Direct operating expenses for our Petroleum Segment divided by total throughput barrels for the period, which is calculated as total throughput barrels per day times the number of days in the period.
Adjusted EBITDA, Petroleum Adjusted EBITDA and Nitrogen Fertilizer Adjusted EBITDA - EBITDA, Petroleum EBITDA and Nitrogen Fertilizer EBITDA adjusted for certain significant noncash items and items that management believes are not attributable to or indicative of our underlying operational results of the period or that may obscure results and trends we deem useful.
We present these measures because we believe they may help investors, analysts, lenders and ratings agencies analyze our results of operations and liquidity in conjunction with our U.S. GAAP results, including but not limited to our operating performance as compared to other publicly traded companies in the refining and fertilizer industries, without regard to historical cost basis or financing methods and our ability to incur and service debt and fund capital expenditures. Non-GAAP measures have important limitations as analytical tools because they exclude some, but not all, items that affect net earnings and operating income. These measures should not be considered substitutes for their most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures. See “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” included herein for reconciliation of these amounts. Due to rounding, numbers presented within this section may not add or equal to numbers or totals presented elsewhere within this document.
Factors Affecting Comparability of Our Financial Results
Petroleum Segment
Our results of operations for the periods presented may not be comparable with prior periods or to our results of operations in the future due to capitalized expenditures as part of planned turnarounds. Total capitalized expenditures were $3 million and $2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $45 million and $53 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The next planned turnaround is currently scheduled to commence in the first quarter of 2025 at the Coffeyville Refinery.

(1)The Petroleum Segment’s basis for determining inventory value under GAAP is First-In, First-Out (“FIFO”). Changes in crude oil prices can cause fluctuations in the inventory valuation of crude oil, work in process and finished goods, thereby resulting in a favorable inventory valuation impact when crude oil prices increase and an unfavorable inventory valuation impact when crude oil prices decrease. The inventory valuation impact is calculated based upon inventory values at the beginning of the accounting period and at the end of the accounting period. In order to derive the inventory valuation impact per total throughput barrel, we utilize the total dollar figures for the inventory valuation impact and divide by the number of total throughput barrels for the period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal source of liquidity has historically been cash from operations. Our principal uses of cash are for working capital, capital expenditures, funding our debt service obligations, and paying dividends to our stockholders, as further discussed below. We may also seek to secure additional liquidity to help mitigate the potential impact of adverse government actions such as the EPA denial of SREs.
Volatile commodity pricing and higher industry utilization and oversupply have had an unfavorable impact on our business and have negatively impacted cash from operations, our primary source of liquidity. Cash from operations has also been negatively impacted by operational issues at our facilities, including the fire incident at the Wynnewood Refinery in the second quarter of 2024, together with related downtime and expenses. In addition, uncertainty remains due to the potential for further demand destruction, increased supply of refined products from the startup of new refineries around the world, the impacts of increasing electric vehicles and liquid natural gas and other improvements in miles per gallon, along with potential implications of geopolitical matters. The planned turnaround at the Coffeyville Refinery in early 2025, an event that is planned to occur once every five years and supports our continued focus on safe and reliable operations, will require an estimated $175 million to $200 million cash outlay and is currently expected to be completed by May 31, 2025, further reducing our liquidity. As a result of these factors, the Board elected to suspend payment of the cash dividend and have implemented and are maintaining the following measures:
(1)The deferment of new growth capital spending; and
(2)A reduction in the amount of expected capital expenditures for the remainder of 2024, including certain capital expenditures through 2025, to only include those projects which are critical to continuing safe and reliable operations, environmental compliance projects or are required to support future activities.
We currently expect the implementation of the measures noted above, excluding the suspended payment of the cash dividend, to result in cash savings of approximately $25 million through the remainder of 2024. Further, the Company is concurrently exploring additional efforts to control costs. These decisions support the Company’s focus on financial discipline to maintain adequate capital for ongoing operations throughout this environment of uncertainty. The Board will continue to evaluate the economic environment, the Company’s cash needs, optimal uses of cash, payment of dividends (if any), and other applicable factors, and may elect to make additional changes to the Company’s capital allocation in future periods.
If needed, we may seek to access the capital markets, incur additional debt and/or pursue non-core asset sales or other alternatives to maintain liquidity aligned with our objectives. We closely monitor the amounts and timing of our sources and uses of funds and the availability and borrowings, if any, under the CVR Energy ABL. Our ability to incur additional indebtedness could be restricted by the terms of our existing Senior Notes or the CVR Energy ABL.
When considering the market conditions and actions outlined above, we currently believe that our cash from operations and existing cash and cash equivalents, along with borrowings, as necessary, will be sufficient to satisfy anticipated cash requirements associated with our existing operations for at least the next 12 months. Our future expenditures for turnaround, capital expenditures and other cash requirements could be higher than we currently expect as a result of various factors including, but not limited to, rising material and labor costs, the costs associated with complying with the RFS and the outcome of litigation and other factors. Additionally, our ability to generate adequate cash from our operating activities in the current commodity price environment, sell non-core assets, access capital markets, incur additional debt or take any other action to improve our liquidity is subject to the risks discussed above and elsewhere in our periodic reports and the other risks and uncertainties that exist in our industry, and depends on our future operational performance, which is subject to general economic, political, financial, competitive, and other factors, some of which may be beyond our control.
Depending on the needs of our business, contractual limitations and market conditions, we may from time to time seek to issue equity securities, incur additional debt, issue debt securities, or redeem, repurchase, refinance, or retire our outstanding debt through privately negotiated transactions, open market repurchases, redemptions, exchanges, tender offers or otherwise, but we are under no obligation to do so. There can be no assurance that we will seek to do any of the foregoing or that we will be able to do any of the foregoing on terms acceptable to us or at all.
As permitted under the CVR Energy ABL, certain subsidiaries of the Company entered into an Incremental Commitment Agreement on September 25, 2024 for an amount of $70 million, which increased the total aggregate principal amount available under the CVR Energy ABL from $275 million to $345 million. The Company and its subsidiaries were in compliance with

applicable financial covenants under their respective debt instruments as of September 30, 2024, and through the date of filing, as applicable.
We do not have any “off-balance sheet arrangements” as such term is defined within the rules and regulations of the SEC.
Cash Balances and Other Liquidity
As of September 30, 2024, we had total liquidity of approximately $863 million, consisting of consolidated cash and cash equivalents of $534 million, $290 million available under CVR Energy’s Amended and Restated ABL Credit Agreement (the “CVR Energy ABL”), and $39 million available under CVR Partners’ Credit Agreement (the “CVR Partners ABL”).

Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment
As of September 30, 2024, the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment has the 6.125% Senior Secured Notes, due June 2028 and the CVR Partners ABL, the proceeds of which may be used to fund working capital and capital expenditures and for other general corporate purposes. Refer to Part II, Item 8, Note 8 (“Long-Term Debt and Finance Lease Obligations”) of our 2023 Form 10-K for further discussion.
Capital Spending
We divide capital spending needs into two categories: maintenance and growth. Maintenance capital spending includes non-discretionary maintenance projects and projects required to comply with environmental, health, and safety regulations. Growth capital projects generally involve an expansion of existing capacity, reliability improvements, and/or a reduction in direct operating expenses. We undertake growth capital spending based on the expected return on incremental capital employed.

(1)As of September 30, 2024, Renewables does not meet the definition of a reportable segment as defined under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 280.
Our estimated capital expenditures are subject to further change due to changes in the cost, scope, and completion time for capital projects. For example, we may experience changes in labor or equipment costs necessary to comply with government regulations or to complete projects that sustain the operations of the refineries or facilities. Capital spending for CVR Partners is determined by the UAN GP Board. We will continue to monitor market conditions and make adjustments, if needed, to our current capital spending or turnaround plans.
The Petroleum Segment’s planned turnaround at the Wynnewood Refinery commenced in February 2024 and was completed in March 2024. The Petroleum Segment’s total capitalized expenditures were $3 million and $2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $45 million and $53 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The next planned turnaround is currently scheduled to commence in the first quarter of 2025 at the Coffeyville Refinery.
The next planned turnarounds for the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment are currently scheduled to take place in late 2025 at the Coffeyville Facility and in 2026 at the East Dubuque Facility.

Cash Flows
The following table sets forth our consolidated cash flows for the periods indicated below:

| Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in millions) | 2024 |  | 2023 |  | Change
Net cash provided by (used in): |  |  |  |  |
Operating activities | $ | 306 |  |  | $ | 984 |  |  | $ | (678) |
Investing activities | (164) |  |  | (181) |  |  | 17 |
Financing activities | (794) |  |  | (424) |  |  | (370) |
Net (decrease) increase in cash, cash equivalents, reserved funds and restricted cash | $ | (652) |  |  | $ | 379 |  |  | $ | (1,031) |

Operating Activities
The change in net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was driven primarily by lower income from operations, offset by an increase in net changes from working capital items. The decrease of $776 million in net income was primarily due to decreases in gasoline and distillate crack spreads as well as decreased production caused by unplanned outages in 2024. The lower activity in the current period was offset by working capital changes of $163 million which were substantially attributable to the increase in the RFS obligation in the current period when compared to 2023.
Investing Activities
The change in net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was due to a decrease in capital expenditures of $26 million and a decrease in our turnaround expenditures of $7 million in 2024 compared to 2023, partially offset by lower distributions from the CVR Partners’ equity method investment associated with the 45Q Transaction of $16 million during 2024.
Financing Activities
The change in net cash used for financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily due to the $600 million redemption of the 2025 Notes in 2024. This was partially offset by a decrease in dividends paid to CVR Partners noncontrolling interest holders of $131 million and a decrease in dividends paid to CVR Energy stockholders of $100 million during 2024 compared to 2023.

PLEASE NOTE: Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, we may file or incorporate by reference agreements as exhibits to the reports that we file with or furnish to the SEC. The agreements are filed to provide investors with information regarding their respective terms. The agreements are not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company, its business or operations. In particular, the assertions embodied in any representations, warranties and covenants contained in the agreements may be subject to qualifications with respect to knowledge and materiality different from those applicable to investors and may be qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules not included with the exhibits. These disclosure schedules may contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in the agreements. Moreover, certain representations, warranties and covenants in the agreements may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties, rather than establishing matters as facts. In addition, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may have changed after the date of the respective agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s public disclosures. Accordingly, investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants in the agreements as characterizations of the actual state of facts about the Company, its business or operations on the date hereof.
