SUGAR LAND, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- CVR Energy, Inc. (NYSE: CVI, “CVR Energy” or the “Company”) today announced its third quarter 2025 results including earnings per diluted share of $3.72 and adjusted earnings per diluted share of 40 cents, compared to a loss per diluted share of $1.24 and an adjusted loss per diluted share of 50 cents for the prior year period.

“During the third quarter of 2025 we recognized a $488 million benefit from the August 2025 decision of the EPA in clearing years of undue RIN strain on our balance sheet, in addition to 97% crude utilization, higher cracks and an increased capture rate all contributing to third quarter 2025 EBITDA of $625 million. While the EPA’s August decision was not perfect, we appreciate the Trump Administration recognizing the critical role small refineries like ours play in Unleashing American Energy. Of course, we will continue to fight for the full waivers Wynnewood Refining Company, LLC deserves,” said Dave Lamp, CVR Energy’s Chief Executive Officer. “With continued geopolitical tensions, the exorbitant replacement costs for refineries, steady global demand and declining supply as refinery closures are expected to outpace additions over the next 5 years, we should be well positioned into the future.

“CVR Partners achieved strong results for the third quarter of 2025, with a combined ammonia production rate of 95 percent coupled with a supportive market environment for nitrogen fertilizers,” Lamp said. “CVR Partners also was pleased to declare a third quarter 2025 cash distribution of $4.02 per common unit.”

Petroleum Segment

The Petroleum Segment reported a third quarter 2025 net income of $520 million and EBITDA of $572 million, compared to net loss of $110 million and EBITDA loss of $75 million for the third quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA for the Petroleum Segment was $120 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $24 million for the third quarter of 2024.

Combined total throughput for the third quarter of 2025 was approximately 216,000 barrels per day (“bpd”) compared to approximately 189,000 bpd of combined total throughput for the third quarter of 2024. Throughput during the current quarter was higher primarily due to minor unplanned outages in the prior year period.

Refining margin for the third quarter of 2025 was $708 million, or $35.65 per total throughput barrel, compared to $44 million, or $2.53 per total throughput barrel, during the same period in 2024. Included in our third quarter 2025 refining margin were favorable mark-to-market impacts on our outstanding Renewable Fuel Standard (“RFS”) obligation of $471 million, which includes favorable adjustments to reflect the 2025 SRE Decision (defined below) of $488 million partially offset by an unfavorable renewable fuel credits, known as renewable identification numbers (“RINs”), revaluation of the renewable volume obligation (“RVO”) of $17 million, unfavorable inventory valuation impacts of $11 million, and unfavorable unrealized derivative impacts of $8 million primarily related to crack swap positions. Excluding these items, adjusted refining margin for the third quarter of 2025 was $12.87 per barrel, compared to an adjusted refining margin per barrel of $8.23 for the third quarter of 2024. The increase in adjusted refining margin per barrel was primarily due to an increase in the Group 3 2-1-1 crack spread.

Renewables Segment

The Renewables Segment reported third quarter 2025 net loss of $51 million and EBITDA loss of $15 million, compared to net income of $3 million and EBITDA of $9 million for the third quarter of 2024. Adjusted EBITDA loss for the Renewables Segment was $7 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to adjusted EBITDA of $8 million for the third quarter of 2024.

Total vegetable oil throughput for the third quarter of 2025 was approximately 208,000 gallons per day (“gpd”), compared to approximately 214,000 gpd for the third quarter of 2024.

Renewables margin was less than $(1) million, or $(0.01) per vegetable oil throughput gallon, for the third quarter of 2025 compared to $21 million, or $1.09 per vegetable oil throughput gallon, for the third quarter of 2024. Factors contributing to the decrease in third quarter 2025 renewables margin compared to the prior period were a decrease in the heating oil-bean oil spread of $0.57 per gallon, a decrease of inventory net realizable value resulting in a write-down of $9 million in the third quarter of 2025, and decreased production and sales volumes, partially offset by an increase in D4 RINs and Low Carbon Fuel Standard (“LCFS”) credit prices and an increase in renewable diesel yield due to improved catalyst performance in the current period.

During the third quarter of 2025, the Company resolved to revert the renewable diesel unit (“RDU”) at the refinery in Wynnewood, Oklahoma (the “Wynnewood Refinery”) back to hydrocarbon processing service at the next scheduled catalyst change in December 2025 (the “RDU Reversion”), considering the unfavorable economics of the renewables business and to optimize feedstock and relieve certain logistical constraints within the refining business. While the Company expects to maintain the option to switch back to renewable diesel service if incentivized to do so, this decision is expected to result in changes to the Company’s reportable segments, subject to completion of the operational transition and related financial reporting assessments.

Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment

The Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment reported net income of $43 million and EBITDA of $71 million on net sales of $164 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to net income of $4 million and EBITDA of $36 million on net sales of $125 million for the third quarter of 2024.

Production at CVR Partners, LP’s (“CVR Partners”) fertilizer facilities decreased slightly compared to the third quarter of 2024, producing a combined 208,000 tons of ammonia during the third quarter of 2025, of which 59,000 net tons were available for sale while the rest was upgraded to other fertilizer products, including 337,000 tons of urea ammonia nitrate (“UAN”). During the third quarter of 2024, the fertilizer facilities produced a combined 212,000 tons of ammonia, of which 61,000 net tons were available for sale while the remainder was upgraded to other fertilizer products, including 321,000 tons of UAN.

For the third quarter 2025, average realized gate prices for ammonia and UAN were up 33 percent and 52 percent, respectively, over the prior year to $531 and $348 per ton, respectively. Average realized gate prices for ammonia and UAN were $399 and $229 per ton, respectively, for the third quarter of 2024.

Corporate and Other

The Company reported an income tax expense of $88 million, or 17.9 percent of income before income taxes, for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to an income tax benefit of $6 million, or 4.6 percent of loss before income taxes, for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The change in tax expense (benefit) was primarily due to an increase in overall pretax earnings while the change in the effective tax rate was primarily due to changes in pretax earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests and the impact of federal and state tax credits and incentives relative to overall pretax earnings.

Cash, Debt and Dividend

Consolidated cash and cash equivalents were $670 million at September 30, 2025, a decrease of $317 million from December 31, 2024. Consolidated total debt and finance lease obligations were $1.8 billion at September 30, 2025, including $570 million held by the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment.

On July 25, 2025, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries prepaid $20 million in principal of the senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan”), plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date.

CVR Energy will not pay a cash dividend for the third quarter of 2025.

Today, CVR Partners announced that the Board of Directors of its general partner declared a third quarter 2025 cash distribution of $4.02 per common unit, which will be paid on November 17, 2025, to common unitholders of record as of November 10, 2025.

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.

As a result of continuing volatile market conditions and the impacts certain non-cash items may have on the evaluation of our operations and results, the Company began disclosing the Adjusted Refining Margin non-GAAP measure, as defined below, in the second quarter of 2024. We believe the presentation of this non-GAAP measure is meaningful to compare our operating results between periods and better aligns with our peer companies. All prior periods presented have been conformed to the definition below.

The following are non-GAAP measures we present for the periods ended September 30, 2025 and 2024:

EBITDA - Consolidated net income (loss) before (i) interest expense, net, (ii) income tax expense (benefit) and (iii) depreciation and amortization expense.

Petroleum EBITDA, Renewables 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.

Adjusted Refining Margin - Refining Margin 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.

Refining Margin and Adjusted Refining Margin, per Throughput Barrel - Refining Margin and Adjusted 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.

Renewables Margin - The difference between our Renewables Segment net sales and cost of materials and other.

Adjusted Renewables Margin - Renewables Margin 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.

Renewables Margin and Adjusted Renewables Margin, per Vegetable Oil Throughput Gallon - Renewables Margin and Adjusted Renewables Margin divided by the total vegetable oil throughput gallons for the period, which is calculated as total vegetable oil throughput gallons per day times the number of days in the period.

Direct Operating Expenses per Vegetable Oil Throughput Gallon - Direct operating expenses for our Renewables Segment divided by total vegetable oil throughput gallons for the period, which is calculated as total vegetable oil throughput gallons per day times the number of days in the period.

Adjusted EBITDA, Petroleum Adjusted EBITDA, Renewables Adjusted EBITDA, and Nitrogen Fertilizer Adjusted EBITDA - EBITDA, Petroleum EBITDA, Renewables EBITDA, and Nitrogen Fertilizer EBITDA adjusted for certain significant non-cash 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.

Adjusted Earnings (Loss) per Share - Earnings (loss) per share adjusted for certain significant non-cash items and items that management believes are not attributable to or indicative of our on-going operations or that may obscure our underlying results and trends.

Free Cash Flow - Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities less capital expenditures and capitalized turnaround expenditures.

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

Our results of operations for the periods presented may not be comparable with prior periods or to our results of operations in the future for the reasons discussed below.

Petroleum Segment

Major Scheduled Turnaround Activities - Total capitalized expenditures as part of planned turnarounds were $165 million and $3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $189 million and $45 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Renewable Fuel Standard - As previously announced, on August 22, 2025, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) issued a decision document to the Company’s subsidiary, Wynnewood Refining Company, LLC (“WRC”), affirming the validity of its previous grant of WRC’s petitions for small refinery hardship relief under the RFS for WRC’s 2017 and 2018 compliance periods and granting 100 percent waivers for WRC’s 2019 and 2021 compliance periods and granting 50 percent waivers for its 2020, 2022, 2023 and 2024 compliance periods (the “2025 SRE Decision”). Based on this decision, WRC’s obligations for the 2020 through 2024 compliance periods were reduced by more than 424 million RINs, resulting in an RVO adjustment and a gain of $488 million to reflect the small refinery hardship relief (“SRE”) waivers for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Renewables Segment

While the Company expects to maintain the option to switch back to renewable diesel service after the RDU Reversion, if incentivized to do so, the remaining useful lives of certain assets within the Renewables Segment were adjusted as a result of changes in their expected utilization beginning in September 2025, which resulted in additional depreciation expense of $31 million during both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

(1)

Reflects our ammonia utilization rate on a consolidated basis. Utilization is an important measure used by management to assess operational output at each of CVR Partners’ facilities. Utilization is calculated as actual tons produced divided by capacity. We present our utilization for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 and take into account the impact of our current turnaround cycles on any specific period. Additionally, we present utilization solely on ammonia production rather than each nitrogen product as it provides a comparative baseline against industry peers and eliminates the disparity of plant configurations for upgrade of ammonia into other nitrogen products. With our efforts being primarily focused on ammonia upgrade capabilities, this measure provides a meaningful view of how well we operate.

(1)		The Renewables Segment’s basis for determining inventory value under GAAP is FIFO. Changes in renewable diesel  and renewable feedstock prices can cause fluctuations in the inventory valuation of renewable diesel, work in process and finished goods, thereby resulting in a favorable inventory valuation impact when renewable diesel prices increase and an unfavorable inventory valuation impact when renewable diesel 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.
(2)		Includes an inventory valuation charge of $2 million and $9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025, respectively, as inventories were reflected at the lower of cost or net realizable value. No adjustment was necessary for any other period in 2025 or 2024.
