As of September 30, 2025, indicative net asset value increased $567 million compared to June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to gains of $678 million of our long position in CVI and the positive performance of $267 million of the long and other positions in the Funds. The increase was offset in part by losses of $281 million attributed to our hedging efforts we use to protect our portfolio within the Funds, IEP's distribution of $79 million and the Holding Company's net interest expense of $72 million. On November 3, 2025, the Board of Directors of the general partner of Icahn Enterprises declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $0.50 per depositary unit, which will be paid on or about December 24, 2025 to depositary unitholders of record at the close of business on November 17, 2025. Depositary unitholders will have until December 12, 2025 to make a timely election to receive either cash or additional depositary units. If a unitholder does not make a timely election, it will automatically be deemed to have elected to receive the distribution in additional depositary units. Depositary unitholders who elect to receive (or who are deemed to have elected to receive) additional depositary units will receive units valued at the volume weighted average trading price of the units during the five consecutive trading days ending December 19, 2025. Icahn Enterprises will make a cash payment in lieu of issuing fractional depositary units to any unitholders electing to receive (or who are deemed to have elected to receive) depositary units.

These include non-GAAP EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA represents earnings from continuing operations before net interest expense (excluding our Investment segment), income tax (benefit) expense and depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding certain effects of impairment, restructuring costs, transformation costs, certain pension plan expenses, gains/losses on disposition of assets, gains/losses on extinguishment of debt, performance of closed stores including closing costs, and certain other non-operational charges. We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA on a consolidated basis and on a basis attributable to Icahn Enterprises net of the effects of non-controlling interests. We conduct substantially all of our operations through subsidiaries. The operating results of our subsidiaries may not be sufficient to make distributions to us. In addition, our subsidiaries are not obligated to make funds available to us for payment of our indebtedness, payment of distributions on our depositary units or otherwise, and distributions and intercompany transfers from our subsidiaries to us may be restricted by applicable law or covenants contained in debt agreements and other agreements to which these subsidiaries currently may be subject or into which they may enter into in the future. The terms of any borrowings of our subsidiaries or other entities in which we own equity may restrict dividends, distributions or loans to us.  We believe that providing EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to investors has economic substance as these measures provide important supplemental information of our performance to investors and permits investors and management to evaluate the core operating performance of our business without regard to interest (except with respect to our Investment segment), taxes and depreciation and amortization and certain effects of impairment, restructuring costs, certain pension plan expenses, gains/losses on disposition of assets, gains/losses on extinguishment of debt and certain other non-operational charges. Additionally, we believe this information is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies that have issued debt. Management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our operating results, as well as in planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. Adjusting earnings for these charges allows investors to evaluate our performance from period to period, as well as our peers, without the effects of certain items that may vary depending on accounting methods and the book value of assets. Additionally, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA present meaningful measures of performance exclusive of our capital structure and the method by which assets were acquired and financed. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. For example, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:  do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures, or contractual commitments; do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt. Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated or amortized often will have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. Other companies in the industries in which we operate may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. In addition, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations.  EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements of our financial performance under U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP or as alternatives to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity. Given these limitations, we rely primarily on our U.S. GAAP results and use EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA only as a supplemental measure of our financial performance. Use of Indicative Net Asset Value Data The Company uses indicative net asset value as an additional method for considering the value of the Company's assets, and we believe that this information can be helpful to investors. Please note, however, that the indicative net asset value does not represent the market price at which the depositary units trade. Accordingly, data regarding indicative net asset value is of limited use and should not be considered in isolation. The Company's depositary units are not redeemable, which means that investors have no right or ability to obtain from the Company the indicative net asset value of units that they own. Units may be bought and sold on The Nasdaq Global Select Market at prevailing market prices. Those prices may be higher or lower than the indicative net asset value of the depositary units as calculated by management.  See below for more information on how we calculate the Company's indicative net asset value.  September 30, June 30, December 31, 2025 2025 2024 (in millions)(unaudited) Market-valued Subsidiaries and Investments:    Holding Company interest in Investment Funds(1) $ 2,449 $ 2,464 $ 2,703    CVR Energy(2) 2,569 1,891 1,250    CVR Partners LP(2) 25 24 13 Total market-valued subsidiaries and investments $ 5,043 $ 4,379 $ 3,966 Other Subsidiaries:    Viskase(3) $ 62 $ 71 $ 197    Real Estate Segment(4) 692 715 743    WestPoint Home(1) 159 166 162    Vivus(1) 183 197 209    Automotive Services(5) 568 442 482    Automotive Parts(1) - - 9    Automotive Owned Real Estate Assets(6) 711 752 768    Icahn Automotive Group 1,279 1,194 1,259 Operating Business Indicative Gross Asset Value $ 7,418 $ 6,722 $ 6,536    Add: Other Net Assets(7) 67 109 103 Indicative Gross Asset Value $ 7,485 $ 6,831 $ 6,639    Add: Holding Company cash and cash equivalents(8) 998 1,086 1,397    Less: Holding Company debt(8) (4,663) (4,664) (4,699) Indicative Net Asset Value $ 3,820 $ 3,253 $ 3,337 Indicative net asset value does not purport to reflect a valuation of IEP. The calculated indicative net asset value does not include any value for our Investment Segment other than the fair market value of our investment in the Investment Funds. A valuation is a subjective exercise and indicative net asset value does not necessarily consider all elements or consider in the adequate proportion the elements that could affect the valuation of IEP. Investors may reasonably differ on what such elements are and their impact on IEP. No representation or assurance, express or implied, is made as to the accuracy and correctness of indicative net asset value as of these dates or with respect to any future indicative or prospective results which may vary.

In August 2025, certain properties were sold and as of September 30, 2025,the value of the consideration received and held in our Real Estate Segment consisted of preferred equity investmentand debt and was used in the calculation of indicative fair value.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, a small group properties were transferred from IcahnAutomotive Group to our Real Estate Segment and as of June 30, 2025, were included in our Real Estate SegmentSubsequent to September 30, 2025 the vast majority of the properties were transferred to the Real Estate SegmentAs of September 30, 2025, these properties were fair valued utilizing the average results of discounted cashflowand sales comparison methodologies for each property to estimate fair-market value.
