The company said in its [PR Newswire](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/icahn-enterprises-lp-nasdaq-iep-today-announced-its-third-quarter-2026-financial-results-302927759.html) release that it declared a $0.50 per depositary unit distribution, its 86th consecutive quarterly payment since 2005.\n\n## How Refining Hedges Drove the Icahn Enterprises Loss\n\nThe quarterly loss included $522 million of losses on refining hedges in the Investment Funds attributable to Icahn Enterprises, according to the release. That figure does not include an increase of approximately $1.7 billion in the value of the company's long position in [CVR Energy](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/00047wf/cvr-energy-inc), its majority-owned subsidiary. Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Icahn Enterprises was a loss of $214 million, compared with $75 million a year earlier.

CVR Energy announced a transaction to acquire two refineries and a marketing platform from Marathon Petroleum for a $4.2 billion purchase price, which the release said represents less than 3.5 times management's estimate of 2026 EBITDA. Investing.com reported on November 3 that CVR Energy was close to a deal worth more than $4 billion for Marathon refineries.\n\n## Icahn Enterprises' Net Asset Value and Nine-Month Figures\n\nAccording to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data), Icahn Enterprises is a Carl Icahn-controlled diversified holding company operating seven segments, including Investment activist funds, Energy through CVR Energy and CVR Partners, Automotive, Food Packaging, Real Estate, Home Fashion and Pharma. Indicative net asset value was approximately $3.5 billion as of September 30, 2026, an increase of $865 million from June 30, 2026, the release said. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, revenues were $8.4 billion and the net loss attributable to Icahn Enterprises was $1.0 billion, or a loss of $1.51 per depositary unit.\n\n## Earlier Icahn Enterprises Moves\n\nIn October 2026, 247wallst reported that Icahn Enterprises was among six high-yield stocks facing dividend safety concerns, noting its units had fallen 75% in five years and its 2025 operating cash flow was negative $313 million.
