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 these condensed consolidated financial statements. Therefore, the accompanying 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, the Company has revised its reportable segments to reflect the Renewables reportable segment, which includes the operations of the RDU and renewable feedstock pretreater at 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.
Income Tax
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBB”) was enacted, introducing significant amendments to federal tax law and permanently extending several provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“TCJA”). The Company expects to benefit from the permanent extension of certain TCJA provisions, including 100% bonus depreciation and modifications to the business interest limitation. The Company does not anticipate any material impacts to its income tax balances as a result of the OBBB, but will continue to monitor legislative developments and evaluate any potential future impacts of the new law on its consolidated financial statements.

Our effective income tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 were 17.9% and (1.6)%, compared to 4.6% and 155.0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. These changes were primarily caused by changes in pretax earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests and the impact of federal and state tax credits and incentives relative to overall pretax earnings.

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. The adoption of this standard update will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements but additional disclosures will be included for our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2025.
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 continues to evaluate and assess potential impacts of adopting this new accounting guidance.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which amends certain aspects of the accounting for and disclosure of software costs under ASC 350-40, including the elimination of accounting consideration of software project development stages and enhancement of the guidance around the ‘probable-to-complete’ threshold. This standard is effective for the Company’s annual and interim reporting periods beginning January 1, 2028. Retrospective application to comparative periods is optional, and early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the effects of adopting this new accounting guidance.
