Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Icahn Enterprises L.P. reported a first quarter 2026 net loss attributable to the company of $459 million, or $0.71 per depositary unit, on revenues of about $2.2 billion, compared with a $422 million loss, or $0.79 per unit, on $1.9 billion of revenues a year earlier.

The quarter’s GAAP net loss excludes a $605 million increase in the value of the long position in CVR Energy and reflects $425 million of refining hedge losses in the Investment segment and $158 million of unrealized derivative losses in the Energy segment. Adjusted EBITDA loss attributable to Icahn Enterprises improved slightly to $216 million from $228 million.

Indicative net asset value rose by $201 million since December 31, 2025, reaching $3.37 billion, helped by the CVR Energy position but partly offset by refining hedge losses, holding company net interest expense and the distribution payable. The board declared a quarterly distribution of $0.50 per depositary unit, payable in cash or additional units on or about June 25, 2026, to holders of record on May 18, 2026.

Insights

Revenue grew and NAV increased, but Icahn Enterprises remained loss-making in Q1 2026.

Icahn Enterprises generated about $2.2 billion of Q1 2026 revenue versus $1.9 billion a year earlier, yet posted a net loss attributable to the company of $459 million. Losses were driven largely by hedge and derivative impacts in the Investment and Energy segments.

Management highlighted a $605 million gain in the long CVR Energy position that is not captured in GAAP net loss, alongside $425 million of refining hedge losses and $158 million of unrealized Energy-derivative losses. Adjusted EBITDA loss attributable to the company narrowed modestly to $216 million from $228 million, reflecting slightly better core performance under the revised non-GAAP definition.

Indicative net asset value increased by $201 million since December 31, 2025, reaching $3.37 billion, mainly on CVR Energy’s higher value. The board maintained a quarterly distribution of $0.50 per unit, payable on or about June 25, 2026, which continues to represent a meaningful cash or stock outlay relative to ongoing losses.

Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA loss attributable to IEP was $216 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026"
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
indicative net asset value financial
"As of March 31, 2026, indicative net asset value increased $201 million compared to December 31, 2025"
An indicative net asset value (iNAV) is a live, running estimate of a fund’s per‑share value calculated from current market prices of its holdings. Think of it like a real‑time bank balance for a fund versus the official end‑of‑day number: it helps investors see whether the fund’s market price is higher or lower than the value of its underlying assets, informing intraday buy/sell decisions and helping traders or market makers identify pricing mismatches.
NYMEX crack spread swaps financial
"aggregate locked in value expected to be derived within our Energy segment through 2027 from the sale of NYMEX crack spread swaps"
A NYMEX crack spread swap is a financial contract that lets traders lock in the price difference between crude oil and refined products (such as gasoline or diesel) using standardized New York Mercantile Exchange benchmarks. It works like agreeing today on the margin a refiner earns later by swapping future payments tied to crude and product prices, helping producers, refiners and investors hedge against swings in that margin or take directional bets on refining profitability. This matters to investors because changes in that spread can drive profit and loss for energy companies and affect fuel-related inflation risks.
Renewable Fuel Standard ("RFS") positions financial
"unrealized gains/losses on Renewable Fuel Standard (“RFS”) positions"
master limited partnership financial
"Icahn Enterprises L.P., a master limited partnership, is a diversified holding company"
A master limited partnership is a type of business structure that combines features of a corporation and a partnership, allowing it to raise money from investors while passing profits directly to them. Think of it as a shared ownership group that offers regular income, making it attractive to investors seeking steady cash flow. This structure is often used by companies involved in natural resources or energy, where consistent revenue is common.

Exhibit 99.1

 

Icahn Enterprises L.P. (Nasdaq: IEP) Today Announced Its First Quarter 2026 Financial Results

Sunny Isles Beach, Fla, May 6, 2026

 

·Indicative Net Asset Value was approximately $3.4 billion as of March 31, 2026, an increase of $201 million compared to December 31, 2025. This improvement was primarily due to an increase of $605 million in the value of our long position in CVI, offset in part by losses on refining hedges in the Investment segment of $320 million, the Holding Company’s net interest expense of $79 million and IEP distribution payable of $51 million. Excluding refining hedges and $605 million of gains in CVI, the Investment segment alone saw positive performance of $110 million.

 

·IEP declares first quarter distribution of $0.50 per depositary unit

 

Financial Summary

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, revenues were $2.2 billion and net loss attributable to IEP was $459 million, or approximately $0.71 per depositary unit. This first quarter 2026 GAAP net loss does not include the increase of $605 million in the value of our long position in CVI and was negatively impacted by $425 million of losses resulting from the impact of refining hedges within our Investment segment and $158 million of unrealized derivative losses within our Energy segment and does not include $447 million of aggregate locked in value expected to be derived within our Energy segment through 2027 from the sale of NYMEX crack spread swaps entered into during Q1 2026 (in each case including losses and expected value attributable to non-controlling interests). For the three months ended March 31, 2025, revenues were $1.9 billion and net loss attributable to IEP was $422 million, or a loss of $0.79 per depositary unit. Adjusted EBITDA loss attributable to IEP was $216 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to Adjusted EBITDA loss attributable to IEP of $228 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.1

 

As of March 31, 2026, indicative net asset value increased $201 million compared to December 31, 2025. This improvement was primarily due to an increase of $605 million in the value of our long position in CVI, offset in part by losses on refining hedges in the Investment Segment of $320 million, the Holding Company’s net interest expense of $79 million and IEP’s distribution payable to unitholders of $51 million. Excluding the negative impact of refining hedges and $605 million of gains in CVI, the Investment segment saw positive performance of $110 million.

 

On May 4, 2026, the Board of Directors of the general partner of Icahn Enterprises declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $0.50 per depositary unit, which will be paid on or about June 25, 2026 to depositary unitholders of record at the close of business on May 18, 2026. Depositary unitholders will have until June 12, 2026 to make a timely election to receive either cash or additional depositary units. If a unitholder does not make a timely election, it will automatically be deemed to have elected to receive the distribution in additional depositary units. Depositary unitholders who elect to receive (or who are deemed to have elected to receive) additional depositary units will receive units valued at the volume weighted average trading price of the units during the five consecutive trading days ending June 22, 2026. Icahn Enterprises will make a cash payment in lieu of issuing fractional depositary units to any unitholders electing to receive (or who are deemed to have elected to receive) depositary units.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures in evaluating its performance. These include non-GAAP EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA represents earnings from continuing operations before net interest expense (excluding our Investment Segment), income tax (benefit) expense and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding certain effects of impairment, restructuring costs, transformation costs, certain pension plan expenses, gains/losses on disposition of assets, gains/losses on extinguishment of debt, the performance of closed stores and including closing costs, Energy segment unrealized gains/losses on hedging contracts, unrealized gains/losses on Renewable Fuel Standard (“RFS”) positions, Energy segment inventory revaluation, and certain other non-operational or non-recurring charges. The Energy segment’s basis for determining inventory value impacts are under a GAAP First-In, First-Out (“FIFO”) basis. 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. We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis and on a basis attributable to Icahn Enterprises net of the effects of non-controlling interests. We conduct substantially all of our operations through subsidiaries. The operating results of our subsidiaries may not be sufficient to make distributions to us. In addition, our subsidiaries are not obligated to make funds available to us for payment of our indebtedness, payment of distributions on our depositary units or otherwise, and distributions and intercompany transfers from our subsidiaries to us may be restricted by applicable law or covenants contained in debt agreements and other agreements to which these subsidiaries currently may be subject or into which they may enter into in the future. The terms of any borrowings of our subsidiaries or other entities in which we own equity may restrict dividends, distributions or loans to us. 

 

We believe that providing EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to investors has economic substance as these measures provide important supplemental information of our performance to investors and permits investors and management to evaluate the core operating performance of our business without regard to interest (except with respect to our Investment segment), taxes and depreciation and amortization and certain effects of impairment, restructuring costs, certain pension plan expenses, gains/losses on disposition of assets, gains/losses on extinguishment of debt and certain other non-operational charges. Additionally, we believe this information is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies that have issued debt. Management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our operating results, as well as in planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. Adjusting earnings for these charges allows investors to evaluate our performance from period to period, as well as our peers, without the effects of certain items that may vary depending on accounting methods and the book value of assets. Additionally, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA present meaningful measures of performance exclusive of our capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired and financed. Effective March 31, 2026, we modified our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA to exclude the impacts of certain of our Energy segment results, including unrealized gains/losses on hedging contracts, unrealized gains/losses on RFS positions, and inventory revaluation. We believe that this revised presentation improves the supplemental information provided to our investors because management believes these are not attributable to or indicative of our underlying operational results of the period or that may obscure results and trends we deem useful and the significance of these measures have been disproportionately impacted by increased volatility in recent periods.

 

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. For example, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA: 

 

·do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures, or contractual commitments; 
·do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and 
·do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt. 

 

Page 5 of 9

 

 

Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated or amortized often will have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. Other companies in the industries in which we operate may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. In addition, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations. 

 

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of our financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Given these limitations, we rely primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA only as a supplemental measure of our financial performance.

Use of Indicative Net Asset Value Data

 

The Company uses indicative net asset value as an additional method for considering the value of the Company’s assets, and we believe that this information can be helpful to investors. Please note, however, that the indicative net asset value does not represent the market price at which the depositary units trade. Accordingly, data regarding indicative net asset value is of limited use and should not be considered in isolation.

 

The Company's depositary units are not redeemable, which means that investors have no right or ability to obtain from the Company the indicative net asset value of units that they own. Units may be bought and sold on The Nasdaq Global Select Market at prevailing market prices. Those prices may be higher or lower than the indicative net asset value of the depositary units as calculated by management. 

 

See below for more information on how we calculate the Company’s indicative net asset value.

Indicative net asset value does not purport to reflect a valuation of IEP. The calculated indicative net asset value does not include any value for our Investment Segment other than the fair market value of our investment in the Investment Funds. A valuation is a subjective exercise and indicative net asset value does not necessarily consider all elements or consider in the adequate proportion the elements that could affect the valuation of IEP. Investors may reasonably differ on what such elements are and their impact on IEP. No representation or assurance, express or implied, is made as to the accuracy and correctness of indicative net asset value as of these dates or with respect to any future indicative or prospective results which may vary.  

 

(1)Represents GAAP equity attributable to IEP as of each respective date.
(2)Based on closing share price on each date (or if such date was not a trading day, the immediately preceding trading day) and the number of shares owned by us as of each respective date.
(3)Management performed a valuation of Viskase with the assistance of third-party consultants to estimate fair-market value. This analysis utilized the average results of a discounted cashflow methodology and a guideline public company methodology. Different judgments or assumptions would result in different estimates of value. Viskase indicative net asset value is derived by allocating our portion of ownership to the total equity value.
(4)For each period presented, management performed a valuation with the assistance of third-party consultants to estimate fair-market value, which utilized the average results of discounted cashflow and sales comparison methodologies.
