Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization and Nature of Business	(1) Organization and Nature of Business Organization CVR Energy, Inc. (“CVR Energy,” “CVR,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) is a diversified holding company primarily engaged in the petroleum refining and marketing industry (the “Petroleum Segment”) and the nitrogen fertilizer manufacturing industry through its interest in CVR Partners, LP, a publicly traded limited partnership (the “Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment” or “CVR Partners”). The Petroleum Segment refines and markets high value transportation fuels primarily in the form of gasoline and diesel fuels. CVR Partners produces and markets nitrogen fertilizers primarily in the form of urea ammonium nitrate (“UAN”) and ammonia. We also produce and market renewable diesel. CVR’s common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “CVI.” Icahn Enterprises L.P. and its affiliates (“IEP”) owned approximately 71% of the Company’s outstanding common stock as of March 31, 2023. CVR Partners, LP Interest Holders - As of March 31, 2023, public common unitholders held approximately 63% of CVR Partners’ outstanding common units and CVR Services, LLC (“CVR Services”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CVR Energy, held the remaining approximately 37% of CVR Partners’ outstanding common units. In addition, CVR Services held 100% of the interest in CVR Partners’ general partner, CVR GP, LLC (“CVR GP”), which held a non-economic general partner interest in CVR Partners as of March 31, 2023. The noncontrolling interest reflected on the condensed consolidated balance sheets of CVR is only impacted by the net income of, and distributions from, CVR Partners. Unit Repurchase Program - On May 6, 2020, the board of directors of CVR Partners’ general partner (the “UAN GP Board”), on behalf of CVR Partners, authorized a unit repurchase program (the “Unit Repurchase Program”), which was increased on February 22, 2021. The Unit Repurchase Program, as increased, authorized CVR Partners to repurchase up to $20 million of the CVR Partners’ common units. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, CVR Partners had no common unit repurchases. During 2022, CVR Partners repurchased 111,695 common units on the open market in accordance with a repurchase agreement under Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, at a cost of $12 million, exclusive of transaction costs, or an average price of $110.98 per common unit. As of March 31, 2023, CVR Partners, considering all repurchases made since inception of the Unit Repurchase Program, had a nominal authorized amount remaining under the Unit Repurchase Program. This Unit Repurchase Program does not obligate CVR Partners to acquire any common units and may be cancelled, modified, or terminated by the UAN GP Board at any time. As a result of these repurchases, and the resulting change in CVR Energy’s ownership of CVR Partners while maintaining control, CVR Energy recognized a decrease of $2 million to additional paid-in capital from the reduction of noncontrolling interests totaling $3 million and the related reduction of a deferred tax liability totaling $1 million from changes in its book versus tax basis in CVR Partners as of December 31, 2022. Section 45Q Transaction - We believe that certain carbon oxide capture and sequestration activities conducted at or in connection with the Coffeyville Fertilizer Facility qualify under the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) safe harbor described in Revenue Procedure 2020-12 for certain tax credits available to joint ventures under Section 45Q of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 45Q Credits”). In January 2023, CVR Partners and its subsidiary, Coffeyville Resources Nitrogen Fertilizer, LLC (“CRNF”), entered into a series of agreements with CapturePoint LLC, an unaffiliated Texas limited liability company, and certain unaffiliated third-party investors intended to qualify under the IRS safe harbor described in Revenue Procedure 2020-12 for certain joint ventures that are eligible to claim Section 45Q Credits and allow us to monetize Section 45Q Credits we expect to generate from January 6, 2023 until March 31, 2030 (the “45Q Transaction”). Among other items, the 45Q Transaction resulted in the creation of CVR-CapturePoint Parent LLC, which was accounted for by CVR Partners as an equity-method investment. Refer to Note 5 (“Equity Method Investments”) for further discussion. In January 2023, we received an initial distribution, net of expenses, of approximately $18.1 million and could receive up to an additional $60 million in payments through March 31, 2030, if certain carbon oxide capture and sequestration milestones are met, subject to the terms of the applicable agreements. The foregoing description of the applicable agreements do not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the relevant agreements, which are filed herewith.

All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Accordingly, certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted from the condensed consolidated financial statements. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2022 audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in CVR Energy’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”).

In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations of the Company for the periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed. The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosure of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that will be realized for the year ending December 31, 2023 or any other interim or annual period.

Equity Method Investments and Joint Ventures [Abstract]
Equity Method Investments	(5) Equity Method Investments We have the following investments which have applied the equity method of accounting: • CVR-CapturePoint Parent, LLC (“CVRP JV”) - Through our subsidiaries, and in connection with the 45Q Transaction, we received 50% interest in CVRP JV in connection with a modification to a carbon oxide contract (“CO Contract”) with a customer. We applied the VIE model under FASB ASC Topic 810, Consolidation, to our variable interest in CVRP JV and determined that CVRP JV is a VIE. While we concluded we are not the primary beneficiary of CVRP JV, we do have significant influence over CVRP JV’s operating and financial policies and, therefore, apply the equity method of accounting for our investment in CVRP JV. We will defer the recognition of the noncash consideration received and expect to recognize such revenue as the performance obligation associated with the CO Contract is satisfied. Refer to Note 9 (“Revenue”) for further discussion. We have elected to record our share of the earnings or loss of CVRP JV one quarter in arrears. Distributions received from CVRP JV will reduce our equity method investment and will be recorded in the period in which they are received. The investment in CVRP JV is presented within Other long-term assets on our condensed consolidated financial statements. • Enable South Central Pipeline, LLC (“Enable JV”) - Through our subsidiaries, we own a 40% interest in Enable JV, which operates a 12-inch 26-mile crude oil pipeline with a capacity of approximately 20,000 barrels per day that is connected to the Wynnewood Refinery. The remaining interest in Enable JV is owned by a subsidiary of Energy Transfer LP, which also serves as the operator of the pipeline owned by the Enable JV. • Midway Pipeline, LLC (“Midway JV”) - Through our subsidiaries, we own a 50% interest in Midway JV, which operates a 16-inch 99-mile crude oil pipeline with a capacity of approximately 131,000 barrels per day which connects the Coffeyville Refinery to the Cushing, Oklahoma oil hub. The remaining interest in Midway JV is owned by Plains Pipeline, L.P.

Leases [Abstract]
Leases	(6) Leases Lease Overview We lease certain pipelines, storage tanks, railcars, office space, land, and equipment across our refining, fertilizer, and corporate operations. Most of our leases include one or more renewal options to extend the lease term, which can be exercised at our sole discretion. Certain leases also include options to purchase the leased property. Certain of our lease agreements include rental payments which are adjusted periodically for factors such as inflation. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Additionally, we do not have any material lessor or sub-leasing arrangements. Balance Sheet Summary as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 The following tables summarize the right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability balances for the Company’s operating and finance leases at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022: March 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 (in millions) Operating Leases Finance Leases Operating Leases Finance Leases ROU assets, net Pipeline and storage $ 15 $ 19 $ 16 $ 20 Railcars 10 — 11 — Real estate and other 16 14 13 15 Lease liability Pipelines and storage 15 31 16 32 Railcars 10 — 11 — Real estate and other 16 16 13 16 Lease Expense Summary for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 We recognize lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term and short-term lease expense within Direct operating expenses (exclusive of depreciation and amortization).

Under the Messer Agreement, among other obligations, Messer is obligated to supply oxygen and make certain capital improvements during the term of the Messer Agreement, and CRNF is obligated to take as available and pay for oxygen from Messer’s facility. This arrangement for CRNF’s purchase of oxygen from Messer does not meet the definition of a lease under FASB ASC Topic 842, Leases (“Topic 842”), as CRNF does not expect to receive substantially all of the output, which includes oxygen, nitrogen, and compressed air, of Messer’s on-site production from its air separation unit over the life of the Messer Agreement. The Messer Agreement also obligates Messer to install a new oxygen storage vessel, related equipment and infrastructure (“Oxygen Storage Vessel” or “Vessel”) to be used solely by the Coffeyville Fertilizer Facility. The arrangement for the use of the Oxygen Storage Vessel meets the definition of a lease under Topic 842, as CRNF will receive all output associated with the Vessel. Based on terms outlined in the Messer Agreement, the Company expects the lease of the Oxygen Storage Vessel to be classified as a financing lease with an estimated amount within the range of $20 million to $25 million being capitalized upon lease commencement when the Vessel is placed in service, which is currently expected to happen within the next 12 months.

Based on terms outlined in the Messer Agreement, the Company expects the lease of the Oxygen Storage Vessel to be classified as a financing lease with an estimated amount within the range of $20 million to $25 million being capitalized upon lease commencement when the Vessel is placed in service, which is currently expected to happen within the next 12 months.

The broker costs are expensed since the contract durations are less than one year. Transportation costs are accounted for as fulfillment costs and are expensed as incurred. (2) Distillates consist primarily of diesel fuel, kerosene, jet fuel, and renewable fuels activity. (3) Freight revenue recognized by the Petroleum Segment is primarily tariff and line loss charges rebilled to customers to reimburse the Petroleum Segment for expenses incurred from a pipeline operator. Freight revenue recognized by the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment represents the pass-through finished goods delivery costs incurred prior to customer acceptance and is reimbursed by customers. An offsetting expense for freight is included in Cost of materials and other. (4) Other revenue for the Petroleum Segment consists primarily of (i) renewable fuels, feedstock, and asphalt sales, and (ii) pipeline and processing fees. For the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment, other revenue includes revenue (i) from nitric acid sales and (ii) in connection with the 45Q Transaction, from carbon oxide sales and the noncash consideration received, which is recognized as the performance obligation associated with the CO Contract is satisfied over its term of 7 years, 3 months. Revenue from the CO Contract is recognized over time based on carbon oxide volumes measured at delivery. Remaining Performance Obligations We have spot and term contracts with customers and the transaction prices are either fixed or based on market indices (variable consideration). We do not disclose remaining performance obligations for contracts that have terms of one year or less and for contracts where the variable consideration was entirely allocated to an unsatisfied performance obligation. As of March 31, 2023, these contracts have a remaining duration of less than three years. As of March 31, 2023, the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment had approximately $3 million of remaining performance obligations for contracts with an original expected duration of more than one year. The Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment expects to recognize the majority of these performance obligations as revenue by the end of 2023 and the remaining nominal balance during 2024. Contract Balances A summary of the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment’s deferred revenue activity during the three months ended March 31, 2023 is presented below: (in millions) Balance at December 31, 2022 $ 48 Add: New prepay contracts entered into during the period 13 Noncash consideration received as part of the 45Q Transaction 46 Less: Revenue recognized that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the period (12) Revenue recognized related to contracts entered into during the period (10) Revenue recognized related to noncash consideration (2) Total deferred revenue 83 Less current portion of deferred revenue (45) Total long-term deferred revenue $ 38

Our derivative instruments may contain credit risk-related contingent provisions associated with our credit ratings. If our credit rating were to be downgraded, it would allow the counterparty to require us to post collateral or to request immediate, full settlement of derivative instruments in liability positions. There were no derivatives with credit risk-related contingent provisions that were in a liability position as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Fair Value Measurements The following tables set forth the assets and liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis, by input level, as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022: March 31, 2023 (in millions) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Location and description Prepaid expenses and other current assets (derivative financial instruments) $ — $ 29 $ — $ 29 Total assets $ — $ 29 $ — $ 29 Other current liabilities (RFS obligations) $ — $ (582) $ — $ (582) Other current liabilities (derivative financial instruments) — (1) — (1) Long-term debt and finance lease obligations, net of current portion (long-term debt) — (1,388) — (1,388) Total liabilities $ — $ (1,971) $ — $ (1,971) December 31, 2022 (in millions) Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Location and description Other current liabilities (commodity derivatives) $ — $ (4) $ — $ (4) Other current liabilities (RFS obligations) — (692) — (692) Long-term debt and finance lease obligations, net of current portion (long-term debt) — (1,394) — (1,394) Total liabilities $ — $ (2,090) $ — $ (2,090) As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the only financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are the Company’s derivative instruments, and the RFS obligations. The estimated fair value of cash equivalents, including amounts invested in short-term money market funds, and restricted cash approximate their carrying amounts. The Petroleum Segment’s commodity derivative contracts and RFS obligations, which use fair value measurements and are valued using broker quoted market prices of similar instruments, are considered Level 2 inputs. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, CVR Partners performed a non-recurring fair value measurement of the equity interest received as part of the 45Q Transaction. Such valuation used a combination of the market approach and the discounted cash flow methodology with key inputs including the discount rate, contractual and expected future cash flows, and market multiples. CVR Partners determined the estimated fair value of the consideration received to be $46 million, which is a non-recurring Level 3 measurement, as defined by FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements , based on the use of CVR Partners’ own assumptions described above. The Company had no transfers of assets or liabilities between any of the above levels during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	(12) Commitments and Contingencies Except as described below, there have been no material changes in the Company’s commitments and contingencies from those disclosed in the 2022 Form 10-K. In the ordinary course of business, the Company may become party to lawsuits, administrative proceedings, and governmental investigations, including environmental, regulatory, and other matters. The outcome of these matters cannot always be predicted accurately, but the Company accrues liabilities for these matters if the Company has determined that it is probable a loss has been incurred and the loss can be reasonably estimated. While it is not possible to predict the outcome of such proceedings, if one or more of them were decided against us, the Company believes there would be no material impact to its consolidated financial statements. The Company continues to monitor its contractual arrangements and customer, vendor, and supplier relationships to determine whether and to what extent, if any, the impacts of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the current global and domestic economic environment, including increasing interest rates and inflation or a potential recession, or ongoing crude oil, refined product, or utility price volatility will impair or excuse the performance of the Company or its subsidiaries or their customers, vendors, or suppliers under existing agreements. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had not experienced a material financial impact from any actual or threatened impairment of or excuse in its or others’ performance under such agreements. Crude Oil Supply Agreement Effective on August 4, 2021, an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of CVR Refining entered into the Second Amended and Restated Crude Oil Supply Agreement (the “Crude Oil Supply Agreement”) with Vitol Inc. (“Vitol”), which superseded, in its entirety, the August 31, 2012 Amended and Restated Crude Oil Supply Agreement between the parties. Under the Crude Oil Supply Agreement, Vitol supplies the Petroleum Segment with crude oil and intermediation logistics helping to reduce the amount of inventory held at certain locations and mitigate crude oil pricing risk. Volumes contracted under the Crude Oil Supply Agreement, as a percentage of the total crude oil purchases (in barrels), were approximately 31% and 39% for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Crude Oil Supply Agreement, which currently extends through December 31, 2023, automatically renews for successive one-year terms (each such term, a “Renewal Term”) unless either party provides the other with notice of non-renewal at least 180 days prior to expiration of the term or any Renewal Term. 45Q Transaction Under the agreements entered in connection with the 45Q Transaction, the Company’s subsidiary CRNF is obligated to meet certain minimum quantities of carbon oxide supply each year during the term of the agreement and is subject to fees of up to $15 million per year (reduced pro rata for partial years) to the unaffiliated third-party investors, subject to an overall $45 million cap, if these minimum quantities are not delivered. CVR Partners issued a guarantee to the unaffiliated third-party investors and certain affiliates involved in the 45Q Transaction of the payment and performance obligations of CRNF and CVRP JV, which include the aforementioned fees. This guarantee has no impacts on the accounting records of CVR Partners unless the parties fail to comply with the terms of the 45Q Transaction contracts. Renewable Fuel Standards The Petroleum Segment’s subsidiaries that are subject to the RFS (collectively, the “obligated-party subsidiaries”) implemented by the Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”), which requires refiners to either blend renewable fuels into their transportation fuels or purchase renewable fuel credits, known as RINs, in lieu of blending. The Petroleum Segment’s obligated-party subsidiaries are not able to blend the majority of their transportation fuels and must either purchase RINs or obtain waiver credits for cellulosic biofuels, or other exemptions from the EPA, in order to comply with the RFS. Additionally, the Petroleum Segment’s obligated-party subsidiaries purchase RINs generated from our renewable diesel operations, whose operating results are not included in either of our reportable segments, to partially satisfy their RFS obligations. The Company’s obligated-party subsidiaries recognized a benefit of approximately of $11 million and an expense of $107 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, for its compliance with the RFS (based on the 2020, 2021 and 2022 renewable volume obligation (“RVO”), for the respective periods, excluding the impacts of any exemptions or waivers to which the Company may be entitled). The recognized amounts are included within Cost of materials and other in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and represent costs to comply with the RFS obligation through purchasing of RINs not otherwise reduced by blending of ethanol, biodiesel, or renewable diesel. At each reporting period, to the extent RINs purchased and generated through blending are less than the RFS obligation (excluding the impact of exemptions or waivers to which the Company may be entitled), the remaining position is valued using RIN market prices at period end. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s obligated-party subsidiaries’ RFS positions were approximately $582 million and $692 million, respectively, and are recorded in Other current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Litigation Call Option Coverage Case – On November 28, 2022, the 434 th Judicial District Court of Fort Bend County, Texas granted summary judgment in favor of the primary and excess insurers (the “Insurers”) of the Company and certain of its affiliates (the “Call Defendants”) in the Insurers’ declaratory judgment action seeking determination that the Insurers owe no indemnity coverage in relation to insurance policies that have coverage limits of $50 million for settlement of the lawsuits filed by purported former unitholders of CVR Refining on behalf of themselves and an alleged class of similarly situated unitholders against the Call Defendants relating to the Company’s exercise of the call option under the CVR Refining Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership assigned to it by CVR Refining’s general partner, which settlement was entered into by the parties in August 2022 and approved by the Delaware Court of Chancery in December 2022. The Company intends to appeal the grant of summary judgment while it concurrently pursues its claims against the Insurers it filed in October 2022 in the Superior Court of the State of Delaware (the “Superior Court”) alleging breach of contract and breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing against their primary and excess insurers relating to their denial of coverage of the Call Defendants’ defense expenses and indemnity, as well as other conduct of the Insurers relating to the Call Option Lawsuits. On January 3, 2023, the Superior Court granted the Call Defendants’ motion for leave to amend its complaint to seek recovery from the Insurers of all of the amounts paid in settlement of the Call Option Lawsuits. As our potential appeal of the Texas court decision and our Superior Court lawsuit are in their early stages, the Company cannot determine at this time the outcome of these lawsuits, including whether the outcome would have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. RFS Disputes – The Company has filed a number of petitions in the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit (the “Fifth Circuit”) and the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Colombia Circuit challenging the EPA’s denial of small refinery exemptions sought by Wynnewood Refining Company, LLC (“WRC”) for the 2017 through 2021 compliance periods (the “SRE Denial”), the EPA’s April 2022 and June 2022 alternate compliance rulings and the EPA’s Final Rule filed in July 2022 establishing RVO, and also intervened in an action filed by certain biofuels producers relating to the RFS. In March 2023, the Fifth Circuit granted WRC’s motion to stay enforcement of the RFS against WRC pending resolution of its claims relating to the SRE Denial. As each of these proceedings is in its preliminary stages, the Company cannot determine at this time the outcomes of these matters. While we intend to prosecute these actions vigorously, if these matters are ultimately concluded in a manner adverse to the Company, they could have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Environmental, Health, and Safety (“EHS”) Matters Clean Air Act Matter - In August 2022, the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit (the “Tenth Circuit”) granted CRRM’s motion to stay its appeal of the March 30, 2022 decision of the United States District Court for the District of Kansas (“D. Kan.”) denying CRRM’s petition for judicial review of approximately $6.8 million in stipulated penalties (the “Stipulated Claims”) being sought by the United States (on behalf of the EPA) and the State of Kansas, acting by and through the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (“KDHE”) (collectively, the “CAA Plaintiffs”) for alleged violations of the Clean Air Act (the “CAA”) and a 2012 Consent Decree between CRRM, the United States (on behalf of the EPA) and KDHE at CRRM’s Coffeyville refinery, primarily relating to flares. In December 2022, the Tenth Circuit lifted the stay, but CRRM and the CAA Plaintiffs have since agreed to mediate the Stipulated Claims before the Tenth Circuit. CRRM previously deposited funds into a commercial escrow account relating to the Stipulated Claims, and such funds are legally restricted for use and are included within Prepaid expenses and other current assets on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The separate lawsuit filed by the CAA Plaintiffs in the D. Kan., alleging violations of the CAA, the Kansas State Implementation Plan, Kansas law, 40 C.F.R. Parts 60 and 63, and CRRM’s permits relating to flares, heaters, and related matters and seeking civil penalties, injunctive and related relief (collectively, the “Statutory Claims”), remains ongoing. In October 2022, the D. Kan. granted CRRM’s motion to dismiss KDHE’s demand for state law civil penalties but denied its motion to dismiss other Statutory Claims. In March 2023, the D. Kan. granted KDHE’s motion to file a second amended supplemental complaint to add claims for injunctive relief under state law. KDHE filed the second amended supplemental complaint in April 2023. CRRM and the CAA Plaintiffs have agreed to mediate the Statutory Claims together with the Stipulated Claims before the Tenth Circuit, which mediation is expected to commence in May 2023. As negotiations and proceedings relating to the Stipulated Claims and the Statutory Claims are ongoing, the Company cannot determine at this time the outcome of these matters, including whether such outcome, or any subsequent enforcement or litigation relating thereto would have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Business Segments	(13) Business Segments CVR Energy’s revenues are primarily derived from two reportable segments: the Petroleum Segment and the Nitrogen Fertilizer Segment. The Company evaluates the performance of its segments based primarily on segment operating income (loss) and Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (“EBITDA”). For the purposes of the business segments disclosure, the Company presents operating income (loss) as it is the most comparable measure to the amounts presented on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The other amounts reflect activities associated with our renewable fuels business, intercompany eliminations, corporate cash and cash equivalents, income tax activities, and other corporate activities that are not allocated or aggregated to the reportable segments. The following table summarizes certain operating results and capital expenditures information by segment: Three Months Ended (in millions) 2023 2022 Net sales: Petroleum $ 1,993 $ 2,154 Nitrogen Fertilizer 226 223 Other, including intersegment eliminations (1) 67 (4) Total net sales $ 2,286 $ 2,373 Operating income (loss): Petroleum $ 237 $ 130 Nitrogen Fertilizer 109 104 Other, including intersegment eliminations (1) (16) (14) Total operating income (loss) 330 220 Interest expense, net (18) (24) Other income (expense), net 3 (9) Income before income tax expense $ 315 $ 187 Depreciation and amortization: Petroleum $ 46 $ 46 Nitrogen Fertilizer 15 19 Other (1) 7 2 Total depreciation and amortization $ 68 $ 67 Capital expenditures: (2) Petroleum $ 42 $ 19 Nitrogen Fertilizer 4 5 Other (1) 13 26 Total capital expenditures $ 59 $ 50 The following table summarizes total assets by segment: (in millions) March 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 Petroleum $ 4,114 $ 4,354 Nitrogen Fertilizer 1,116 1,100 Other, including intersegment eliminations (1) (1,022) (1,335) Total assets $ 4,208 $ 4,119 (1) Other includes amounts for the Wynnewood Refinery’s renewable feedstock pretreater project.

All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Accordingly, certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted from the condensed consolidated financial statements. Therefore, these condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2022 audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in CVR Energy’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (the “2022 Form 10-K”). Our condensed consolidated financial statements include the consolidated results of CVR Partners, which is defined as a variable interest entity (“VIE”). In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations of the Company for the periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature, unless otherwise disclosed. The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP, which requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosure of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that will be realized for the year ending December 31, 2023 or any other interim or annual period.
