Appendix
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement the actual results in accordance with GAAP for the applicable periods, the Company also uses non-GAAP financial measures
as discussed below, which are reconciled to GAAP-based results. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative
for GAAP results. The adjustments are provided to enhance an overall understanding of the Company’s financial performance for the
applicable periods and are indicators management believes are relevant and useful for planning and forecasting future periods.
6
Non-GAAP Financial Measures (cont'd)
Adjusted net income (loss) is not a recognized term under GAAP and should not be substituted for net income (loss) as a measure of our performance but rather should
be utilized as a supplemental measure of financial performance in evaluating our business. Management believes that adjusted net income (loss) provides relevant and
useful information that enables external users of our financial statements, such as industry analysts, investors, lenders and rating agencies, to better understand and
evaluate our ongoing operating results and allow for greater transparency in the review of our overall financial, operational and economic performance. Adjusted net
income (loss) per diluted share represents adjusted net income (loss) divided by weighted-average diluted shares outstanding. Adjusted net income (loss) represents net
income (loss), as adjusted, that is attributable to CVR Energy stockholders.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA represents net income (loss) attributable to CVR Energy stockholders before consolidated (i) interest expense and other financing
costs, net of interest income, (ii) income tax expense (benefit), and (iii) depreciation and amortization, less the portion of these adjustments attributable to non-controlling
interest. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted for, as applicable, consolidated (i) FIFO impact (favorable) unfavorable; (ii) (gain) loss on extinguishment of
debt; (iii) major scheduled turnaround expenses (that many of our competitors capitalize and thereby exclude from their measures of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA);
(iv) (gain) loss on derivatives, net; (v) current period settlements on derivative contracts; (vi) flood insurance recovery; (vii) business interruption insurance recovery;
and (viii) transaction expenses associated with the East Dubuque Merger, less the portion of these adjustments attributable to non-controlling interest. EBITDA and
Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized terms under GAAP and should not be substituted for net income (loss) or cash flow from operations. Management believes that
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA enable investors to better understand and evaluate our ongoing operating results and allow for greater transparency in reviewing our
overall financial, operational and economic performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA presented by other companies may not be comparable to our presentation,
since each company may define these terms differently. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA represent EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA that is attributable to CVR Energy
stockholders. Prior to 2016, EBITDA was also adjusted for share-based compensation expense in calculating Adjusted EBITDA. Beginning in 2016, share-based
compensation expense is no longer utilized as an adjustment to derive Adjusted EBITDA as no equity-settled awards remain outstanding for CVR Energy or any of its
subsidiaries, and CVR Partners and CVR Refining are responsible for reimbursing CVR Energy for their allocated portion of all outstanding awards. Management
believes, based on the nature, classification and cash settlement feature of the currently outstanding awards, that it is no longer necessary to adjust EBITDA for share-
based compensation expense to derive Adjusted EBITDA.
Petroleum and Nitrogen Fertilizer EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA by operating segment represents net income (loss) before (i) interest expense and other
financing costs, net of interest income, (ii) income tax expense and (iii) depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA by operating segment represents EBITDA by
operating segment adjusted for, as applicable (i) FIFO impact (favorable) unfavorable; (ii) loss on extinguishment of debt; (iii) major scheduled turnaround expenses
(that many of our competitors capitalize and thereby exclude from their measures of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA); (iv) (gain) loss on derivatives, net; (v) current period
settlements on derivative contracts; (vi) flood insurance recovery; (vii) transaction expenses associated with the East Dubuque Merger and (viii) business interruption
insurance recovery, less the portion of these adjustments attributable to noncontrolling interest. We present Adjusted EBITDA by operating segment because it is the
starting point for CVR Refining’s and CVR Partners’ calculation of available cash for distribution. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA by operating segment are not recognized
terms under GAAP and should not be substituted for net income (loss) as a measure of performance. Management believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA by operating
segment enable investors to better understand CVR Refining’s and CVR Partners’ ability to make distributions to their common unitholders, help investors evaluate our
ongoing operating results and allow for greater transparency in reviewing our overall financial, operational and economic performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
presented by other companies may not be comparable to our presentation, since each company may define these terms differently.
