    • Second quarter earnings per diluted share of 21 cents and adjusted earnings per diluted share of 9 cents
    • Announced cash dividend of 50 cents per share
    • CVR Partners announced a cash distribution of $1.90 per common unit

    SUGAR LAND, Texas, July 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CVR Energy, Inc. (NYSE: CVI, “CVR Energy” or the “Company”) today announced net income attributable to CVR Energy stockholders of $21 million, or 21 cents per diluted share, and EBITDA of $103 million for the second quarter of 2024, compared to net income attributable to CVR Energy stockholders of $130 million, or $1.29 per diluted share, and EBITDA of $300 million for the second quarter of 2023. Excluding the adjustments shown in the corresponding earnings release tables, adjusted earnings per diluted share for the second quarter of 2024 was 9 cents and adjusted EBITDA was $87 million, compared to adjusted earnings per diluted share of $1.64 and adjusted EBITDA of $347 million in the second quarter of 2023.

    “CVR Energy’s 2024 second quarter earnings results were attributable to lower refining margins due to a decrease in the Group 3 2-1-1 crack spread and reduced throughputs related to a fire at the Wynnewood refinery that occurred during severe weather,” said Dave Lamp, CVR Energy’s Chief Executive Officer. “CVR Energy was pleased to announce a second quarter 2024 cash dividend of 50 cents per share.

    “CVR Partners achieved solid operating results for the second quarter of 2024 driven by a combined ammonia production rate of 102 percent,” Lamp said. “CVR Partners was pleased to declare a second quarter 2024 cash distribution of $1.90 per common unit.”

    Petroleum

    The Petroleum Segment reported second quarter 2024 net income of $18 million and EBITDA of $56 million, compared to net income of $194 million and EBITDA of $220 million for the second quarter of 2023. Adjusted EBITDA for the Petroleum Segment was $37 million for the second quarter of 2024, compared to $258 million for the second quarter of 2023.

    Combined total throughput for the second quarter of 2024 was approximately 186,000 barrels per day (bpd) compared to approximately 201,000 bpd of combined total throughput for the second quarter of 2023.

    Refining margin for the second quarter of 2024 was $185 million, or $10.94 per total throughput barrel, compared to $333 million, or $18.21 per total throughput barrel, during the same period in 2023. Included in our second quarter 2024 refining margin were favorable derivative impacts of $17 million from unrealized gains on open crack spread swap positions and favorable inventory valuation impacts of $2 million. Excluding these items, adjusted refining margin for the second quarter of 2024 was $9.81 per barrel, compared to an adjusted refining margin per barrel of $20.27 for the second quarter of 2023. The decrease in adjusted refining margin per barrel was primarily due to a decrease in the Group 3 2-1-1 crack spread.

    Nitrogen Fertilizer

    The Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment reported net income of $26 million and EBITDA of $54 million on net sales of $133 million for the second quarter of 2024, compared to net income of $60 million and EBITDA of $87 million on net sales of $183 million for the second quarter of 2023.

    Production at the CVR Partners, LP’s (“CVR Partners”) fertilizer facilities remained consistent compared to the second quarter of 2023, producing a combined 221,000 tons of ammonia during the second quarter of 2024, of which 69,000 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 second quarter 2023, the fertilizer facilities produced a combined 219,000 tons of ammonia, of which 70,000 net tons were available for sale while the remainder was upgraded to other fertilizer products, including 339,000 tons of UAN.

    For the second quarter 2024, average realized gate prices for UAN showed a reduction compared to the prior year, down 15 percent to $268 per ton, and ammonia was down 26 percent over the prior year to $520 per ton. Average realized gate prices for UAN and ammonia were $316 and $707 per ton, respectively, for the second quarter of 2023.

    Corporate and Other

    The Company reported an income tax benefit of $26 million, or (219.7) percent of income before income taxes, for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to an income tax expense of $44 million, or 20.9 percent of income before income taxes, for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily due to a decrease in overall pretax earnings, while the change in the effective tax rate was primarily due to changes in pretax earnings attributable to noncontrolling interest and the impact of federal and state tax credits and incentives in relation to overall pretax earnings.

    The renewable diesel unit at the Wynnewood refinery had total vegetable oil throughputs for the second quarter of 2024 of approximately 11.7 million gallons, down from 17.8 million gallons in the second quarter of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to the turnaround at the Wynnewood refinery and a catalyst change at the renewable diesel unit during the spring of 2024, in addition to downtime due to a fire at the Wynnewood refinery in April 2024.

    Cash, Debt and Dividend

    Consolidated cash and cash equivalents were $586 million at June 30, 2024, an increase of $5 million from December 31, 2023. Consolidated total debt and finance lease obligations were $1.6 billion at June 30, 2024, including $548 million held by the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment.

    CVR Energy announced a second quarter 2024 cash dividend of 50 cents per share. The quarterly dividend, as declared by CVR Energy’s Board of Directors, will be paid on August 19, 2024, to stockholders of record as of August 12, 2024.

    Today, CVR Partners announced that the Board of Directors of its general partner declared a second quarter 2024 cash distribution of $1.90 per common unit, which will be paid on August 19, 2024, to common unitholders of record as of August 12, 2024.

    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 June 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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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 $11 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $42 million and $51 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The next planned turnaround is currently scheduled to take place in 2025 at the Coffeyville refinery.

    _________________________________
    (1)   Reflects our ammonia utilization rates 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 six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 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 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.
