CVR Energy, Inc. ("CVR Energy" or the "Company") (NYSE:CVI) today announced its fourth quarter 2025 results including a net loss attributable to CVR Energy stockholders of $110 million, or $1.10 per diluted share, and an adjusted loss per diluted share of 80 cents, compared to net income attributable to CVR Energy stockholders of $28 million, or 28 cents per diluted share, and an adjusted loss of 13 cents per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2024. Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2025 was $116 million compared to net income of $40 million for the fourth quarter of 2024. Net loss for the fourth quarter of 2025 included $62 million of accelerated depreciation associated with the reversion of the RDU at the Wynnewood Refinery back to hydrocarbon processing. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2025 were $51 million and $91 million, respectively, compared to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA of $122 million and $67 million, respectively, for the fourth quarter of 2024.

For full-year 2025, the Company reported net income attributable to CVR Energy stockholders of $27 million, or 27 cents per diluted share, and an adjusted loss per diluted share of $1.22, compared to net income attributable to CVR Energy stockholders of $7 million, or 6 cents per diluted share, and an adjusted loss per diluted share of 51 cents for full-year 2024. Net income for full-year 2025 was $90 million compared to net income of $45 million for full-year 2024. Net income for full-year 2025 included $93 million of accelerated depreciation associated with the reversion of the RDU at the Wynnewood Refinery back to hydrocarbon processing. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA for full-year 2025 were $591 million and $393 million, respectively, compared to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA of $394 million and $317 million, respectively, for full-year 2024.

"CVR Energy's solid fourth quarter results were driven by strong throughput volumes in our refining operations, along with attractive seasonal crack spreads in the Fall," said Mark Pytosh, CVR Energy's Chief Executive Officer. "We remain optimistic about the intermediate term prospects for refining, with expected steady increases in global demand for refined products and fewer supply additions compared to the past few years.

"CVR Partners' results were impacted by a 32-day planned turnaround at our Coffeyville fertilizer facility followed by subsequent downtime due to three weeks of startup issues at the third-party air separation plant. Nitrogen fertilizer market conditions continue to be supportive with tight global supply balances and continued strong demand, and pricing has remained robust so far this year."

*	See "Non-GAAP Reconciliations" section below.
(1)	In December 2025, the Company reverted the RDU at the Wynnewood Refinery back to hydrocarbon processing service, considering the unfavorable economics of the renewables business and to optimize feedstock and relieve certain logistical constraints within the refining business.

Corporate and Other

The Company reported income tax benefit of $10 million, or (12.5) percent of income before income taxes, for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to income tax benefit of $26 million, or (137.2) percent of income before income taxes, for the year ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in income tax benefit was due primarily to an increase in overall pretax earnings for full-year 2025, compared to full-year 2024. In addition, the change in the effective tax rate was due primarily to changes in pretax earnings attributable to noncontrolling interests and the impact of federal and state tax credits and incentives generated in relation to overall pretax earnings for full-year 2025, compared to full-year 2024.

Cash, Debt and Dividend

Consolidated cash and cash equivalents was $511 million at December 31, 2025. Consolidated total debt and finance lease obligations was $1.8 billion at December 31, 2025, including $570 million held by the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment.

CVR Partners announced that the Board of Directors of its general partner declared a fourth quarter 2025 cash distribution of $0.37 per common unit, which will be paid on March 9, 2026, to common unitholders of record as of March 2, 2026.

Non-GAAP Measures

Our management uses certain non-GAAP 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 measures are important factors in assessing our operating results and profitability and include the 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 three and twelve months ended December 31, 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 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 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 - The Petroleum Segment had total capitalized expenditures of $1 million and $13 million during the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 and $190 million and $58 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The next planned turnaround is currently scheduled to take place during 2027 at the Wynnewood Refinery.

Renewable Fuel Standard - Based on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency decision document to the Company's subsidiary, Wynnewood Refining Company, LLC's ("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 "August 2025 SRE Decision"), WRC 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 waivers.

Renewables Segment

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 $62 million and $93 million during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2025.

Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment

Major Scheduled Turnaround Activities - We incurred turnaround expenses of $14 million and less than $1 million during the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $17 million and less than $1 million during the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively. The next planned turnaround is currently scheduled to commence in August 2026 at the East Dubuque Fertilizer Facility.

____________________
(1)	Changes in the RFS liability include adjustments to reflect the August 2025 SRE Decision in the amount of $488 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as well as the revaluation of the RVO.
(2)	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.

____________________
(1)	The Renewables Segment's basis for determining inventory value under GAAP is FIFO. Changes in renewable diesel 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)	Consists of asset write-downs associated with the reversion of the RDU at the Wynnewood Refinery in December 2025.
(3)	Includes an inventory valuation charge of $2 million and $9 million for the second and third quarters of 2025, respectively, and $5 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2024, 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.
