Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	(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, 2024 audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in CVR Energy’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the “2024 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, 2025 or any other interim or annual period. Reclassifications Effective beginning with the 2024 Form 10-K and due to the prominence of the renewables business relative to the Company’s overall 2024 performance, the Company has revised its reportable segments to reflect a new reportable segment: Renewables. The Renewables Segment includes the operations of the renewable diesel unit and renewable feedstock pretreater at the refinery located in Wynnewood, Oklahoma (the “Wynnewood Refinery”). Results of the Renewables Segment were not previously included within our reportable segments, rather included within “Other.” Prior period segment information has been retrospectively adjusted to reflect the current segment presentation. Refer to Note 13 (“Business Segments”) for segment disclosures. In addition, certain other immaterial reclassifications have been made within the consolidated financial statements for prior periods to conform with current presentation. Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Adoption of Segment Reporting Standard The Company adopted Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, with its 2024 Form 10-K, and included all disclosures required by the guidance and all existing segment disclosures under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 280, Segment Reporting. Effective with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company adopted this ASU for its interim reports. Refer to Note 13 (“Business Segments”) for the required segment disclosures. Recent Accounting Pronouncements - Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Implemented In December 2023, the FASB issued 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 reporting beginning January 1, 2025 with early adoption permitted. While the Company does not believe the adoption will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements, additional disclosures will be included for our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2025 and interim reporting periods beginning January 1, 2026. The Company does not intend to early adopt this ASU. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which requires additional disclosures in the footnotes that disaggregate certain expenses presented on the face of the income statement. This standard is effective for the Company’s annual reporting period beginning January 1, 2027 and interim reporting periods beginning January 1, 2028. Retrospective application to comparative periods is optional, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effects of adopting this new accounting guidance.
