CVR Energy, Inc., headquartered in Sugar Land, Texas, operates as a diversified holding company with a focus on petroleum refining, marketing, and nitrogen fertilizer manufacturing through its interest in CVR Partners.
In the third quarter of 2024, CVR Energy reported significant financial challenges, including a net loss of $124 million and an EBITDA loss of $35 million. The company cited reduced refining throughputs due to unplanned downtime and external power supply outages as key contributors to this downturn.
Key financial metrics revealed a sharp decline compared to the previous year, with the Petroleum Segment experiencing a net loss of $110 million and an adjusted EBITDA of $24 million. The company’s refining margin also saw a substantial drop, exacerbated by unfavorable market conditions and inventory valuation impacts. On a positive note, CVR Partners, the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment, reported improved net income and EBITDA, supported by higher ammonia production rates and increased average realized gate prices for their products.
Looking ahead, CVR Energy’s management remains cautious, with expectations of continued operational challenges in the near term. The Board’s decision to suspend the quarterly dividend underscores the uncertainties in the margin environment, particularly with the planned Coffeyville refinery turnaround scheduled for early 2025.
