EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this "Report") is a joint report being filed by Icahn Enterprises L.P. and Icahn Enterprises Holdings L.P. Each registrant hereto is filing on its own behalf all of the information contained in this Report that relates to such registrant. Each registrant hereto is not filing any information that does not relate to such registrant, and therefore makes no representation as to any such information.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Report contains certain statements that are, or may be deemed to be, “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("the Exchange Act"), or by Public Law 104-67. All statements included in this Report, other than statements that relate solely to historical fact, are “forward-looking statements.” Such statements include, but are not limited to, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate or imply future results, performance, achievements or events, or any statement that may relate to strategies, plans or objectives for, or potential results of, future operations, financial results, financial condition, business prospects, growth strategy or liquidity, and are based upon management’s current plans and beliefs or current estimates of future results or trends. Forward-looking statements can generally be identified by phrases such as “believes,” “expects,” “potential,” “continues,” “may,” “should,” “seeks,” “predicts,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “projects,” “estimates,” “plans,” “could,” “designed,” “should be” and other similar expressions that denote expectations of future or conditional events rather than statements of fact.
Forward-looking statements include certain statements made under the caption, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” under Part I, Item 2 of this Report, but also forward-looking statements that appear in other parts of this Report. Forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are based on certain assumptions and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from trends, plans, or expectations set forth in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties may include the risks and uncertainties described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 and those set forth in this Report, including under the caption "Risk Factors," under Part II, Item 1A of this Report. Additionally, there may be other factors not presently known to us or which we currently consider to be immaterial that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements.

ICAHN ENTERPRISES HOLDINGS L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)


1.
Description of Business.
Overview
Icahn Enterprises L.P. ("Icahn Enterprises") owns a 99% limited partner interest in Icahn Enterprises Holdings L.P. ("Icahn Enterprises Holdings"). Icahn Enterprises G.P. Inc. ("Icahn Enterprises GP"), which is owned and controlled by Mr. Carl C. Icahn, owns a 1% general partner interest in each of Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings as of June 30, 2018. Icahn Enterprises Holdings and its subsidiaries own substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Icahn Enterprises and conduct substantially all of its operations. Therefore, the financial results of Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings are substantially the same, with differences relating primarily to allocations of the general partner interest, which is reflected as an aggregate 1.99% general partner interest in the financial statements of Icahn Enterprises, as well as due to the carrying amount of deferred financing costs related to our senior unsecured notes. In addition to the above, Mr. Icahn and his affiliates owned approximately 91.3% of Icahn Enterprises' outstanding depositary units as of June 30, 2018.
References to "we," "our" or "us" herein include both Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings and their subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise requires.
Description of Continuing Operating Businesses
We are a diversified holding company owning subsidiaries currently engaged in the following continuing operating businesses: Investment, Automotive, Energy, Railcar, Metals, Mining, Food Packaging, Real Estate and Home Fashion. We also report the results of our Holding Company, which includes the results of certain subsidiaries of Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings (unless otherwise noted), and investment activity and expenses associated with our Holding Company. See Note 11, "Segment Reporting," for a reconciliation of each of our reporting segment's results of operations to our consolidated results. Certain additional information with respect to our segments is discussed below.
Investment
Our Investment segment is comprised of various private investment funds ("Investment Funds") in which we have general partner interests and through which we invest our proprietary capital. We and certain of Mr. Icahn's wholly owned affiliates are the only investors in the Investment Funds. As general partner, we provide investment advisory and certain administrative and back office services to the Investment Funds but do not provide such services to any other entities, individuals or accounts. Interests in the Investment Funds are not offered to outside investors. We had interests in the Investment Funds with a fair value of approximately $3.3 billion and $3.0 billion as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.
Automotive
We conduct our Automotive segment through our wholly owned subsidiary Icahn Automotive Group LLC ("Icahn Automotive"). Icahn Automotive is engaged in the retail and wholesale distribution of automotive parts in the aftermarket as well as providing automotive repair and maintenance services to its customers.
Energy
We conduct our Energy segment through our majority ownership in CVR Energy, Inc. ("CVR Energy"). CVR Energy is a diversified holding company primarily engaged in the petroleum refining and nitrogen fertilizer manufacturing industries through its holdings in CVR Refining L.P. ("CVR Refining") and CVR Partners L.P. ("CVR Partners"), respectively. CVR Refining is a petroleum refiner and marketer of high value transportation fuels. CVR Partners produces and markets nitrogen fertilizers in the form of ammonia and urea ammonium nitrate. As of June 30, 2018, CVR Energy owned 100% of each of the general partners of CVR Refining and CVR Partners and approximately 66% and 34% of the common units of CVR Refining and CVR Partners, respectively.
As of June 30, 2018, we owned approximately 82.0% of the total outstanding common stock of CVR Energy. In addition, as of June 30, 2018, we directly owned approximately 3.9% of the total outstanding common units of CVR Refining.
In June 2018, CVR Energy commenced an exchange offer to acquire additional common units of CVR Refining in exchange for shares of CVR Energy common stock. The exchange offer expired on July 27, 2018. A total of 21,625,106 common units of CVR Refining were validly tendered and not properly withdrawn, which, together with the common units already owned by CVR Energy and its affiliates (including affiliates of Icahn Enterprises L.P.), represent approximately 84.5% of CVR Refining’s outstanding common units. All of the common units that were validly tendered and not properly withdrawn

During January 2018, Viskase received $50 million in connection with its common stock rights offering. In connection with this rights offering, we fully exercised our subscription rights under our basic and over subscription privileges to purchase additional shares of Viskase common stock, thereby increasing our ownership of Viskase from 74.6% to 78.6%, for an aggregate additional investment of $44 million.
Viskase is a producer of cellulosic, fibrous and plastic casings used to prepare and package processed meat products.

ICAHN ENTERPRISES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES
ICAHN ENTERPRISES HOLDINGS L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

On April 10, 2018, we announced a definitive agreement to sell Federal-Mogul to Tenneco Inc. ("Tenneco") for approximately $5.4 billion, comprised of $800 million in cash and 29.5 million shares of Tenneco common stock, of which 23.8 million shares will be non-voting shares that will convert to voting shares if and when sold. There will be restrictions on how many shares of Tenneco common stock can be sold by us within the first 150 days after the closing of the sale. In addition, under this agreement, Tenneco can reduce the amount of non-voting shares of common stock by up to 7.3 million shares and increase the cash consideration proportionately at closing. The voting and non-voting shares of Tenneco common stock will have the same economic value. All of Federal-Mogul's outstanding debt at the time of closing will be assumed by Tenneco. We expect the sale to close in the second half of 2018, subject to regulatory approvals, approval by Tenneco shareholders and other customary closing conditions. This agreement is also subject to a $200 million termination clause. Following the close of this transaction, we will own a non-controlling interest in Tenneco which we will value using the fair value option. This transaction met all the criteria to be classified as held for sale on April 10, 2018 upon execution of the definitive agreement.
Gaming
Our discontinued Gaming operations consists of our majority ownership in Tropicana Entertainment Inc. ("Tropicana") and the Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort ("Taj Mahal"). As of June 30, 2018, we owned approximately 83.9% of the total outstanding common stock of Tropicana.
On April 16, 2018, we announced a definitive agreement to sell Tropicana's real estate to Gaming and Leisure Properties, Inc. and to merge Tropicana's gaming and hotel operations into Eldorado Resorts, Inc. for aggregate consideration of approximately $1.85 billion. The transaction does not include Tropicana's Aruba assets, which will be disposed of as a condition to closing. The aggregate consideration of approximately $1.85 billion will be increased by the amount of the net proceeds received in connection with the Aruba disposition and will be further adjusted to pay corporate level taxes. We expect the sale to close in the second half of 2018, subject to receipt of required gaming approvals, termination of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and other customary closing conditions. This transaction met all the criteria to be classified as held for sale on April 15, 2018 upon execution of the definitive agreement.
Taj Mahal closed in October 2016 and was subsequently sold on March 31, 2017.

2.
Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.
We conduct and plan to continue to conduct our activities in such a manner as not to be deemed an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “'40 Act”). Therefore, no more than 40% of our total assets can be invested in investment securities, as such term is defined in the '40 Act. In addition, we do not invest or intend to invest in securities as our primary business. We intend to structure our investments to continue to be taxed as a partnership rather than as a corporation under the applicable publicly traded partnership rules of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended.
As discussed above, in April 2018, we announced definitive agreements to sell Federal-Mogul and Tropicana. Following the closing of our contemplated sale of Federal-Mogul, it is likely that we would be considered an investment company but for an exemption under the '40 Act that would provide us up to one year to take steps to avoid becoming classified as an investment company. We expect to take steps to avoid becoming classified as an investment company during this exemption period, but no assurance can be made that we will successfully be able to take the steps necessary to avoid becoming classified as an investment company.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) related to interim financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The financial information contained herein is unaudited; however, management believes all adjustments have been made that are necessary to present fairly the results for the interim periods. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature.
Principles of Consolidation
As of June 30, 2018, our condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of (i) Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings and (ii) the wholly and majority owned subsidiaries of Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings, in addition to variable interest entities ("VIEs") in which we are the primary beneficiary. In evaluating whether we have a controlling financial interest in entities that we consolidate, we consider the following: (1) for voting interest entities, including limited partnerships and similar entities that are not VIEs, we consolidate these entities in which we own a majority


14


ICAHN ENTERPRISES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES
ICAHN ENTERPRISES HOLDINGS L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

of the voting interests; and (2) for VIEs, we consolidate these entities in which we are the primary beneficiary. See below for a discussion of our VIEs. Kick-out rights, which are the rights underlying the limited partners' ability to dissolve the limited partnership or otherwise remove the general partners, held through voting interests of partnerships and similar entities that are not VIEs are considered the equivalent of the equity interests of corporations that are not VIEs.
Except for our Investment segment, for those investments in which we own 50% or less but greater than 20%, we generally account for such investments using the equity method, while investments in affiliates of 20% or less are accounted for under the cost method.
Discontinued Operations and Held For Sale
As discussed above, in April 2018, we announced separate definitive agreements to sell Federal-Mogul and Tropicana, each of which are considered separate disposal groups. Each transaction met the criteria to be classified as discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2018. As a result, in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the assets and liabilities of each disposal group have been reclassified to held for sale and their respective results of operations have been reclassified to discontinued operations for all periods presented. Each disposal group is reported at the lesser of carrying value or fair value less cost to sell.
Reclassifications
In connection with our adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-18, Restricted Cash, as discussed below, our net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2017 was decreased by $215 million.
In connection with our adoption of FASB ASU No. 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost, as discussed below, we decreased our selling, general and administrative costs by $1 million and decreased other income, net by $1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017. For the six months ended June 30, 2017, we decreased our selling, general and administrative costs by $2 million and decreased other income, net by $2 million.
In addition, certain other reclassifications from the prior year presentation have been made to conform to the current year presentation, which did not have an impact on previously reported net income and equity and are not deemed material.
Variable Interest Entities
Icahn Enterprises Holdings
We determined that Icahn Enterprises Holdings is a VIE because it lacks both substantive kick-out and participating rights. Icahn Enterprises is the primary beneficiary of Icahn Enterprises Holdings principally based on its 99% limited partner interest in Icahn Enterprises Holdings and therefore continues to consolidate Icahn Enterprises Holdings. The condensed consolidated financial statements of Icahn Enterprises Holdings are included in this Report. The balances with respect to Icahn Enterprises Holdings' consolidated VIEs are discussed below, comprising the Investment Funds, CVR Refining, CVR Partners and Viskase.
Investment
We determined that each of the Investment Funds are considered VIEs because these limited partnerships lack both substantive kick-out and participating rights. Because we have a general partner interest in each of the Investment Funds and have significant limited partner interests in each of the Investment Funds, coupled with our significant exposure to losses and benefits in each of the Investment Funds, we are the primary beneficiary of each of the Investment Funds and therefore continue to consolidate each of the Investment Funds.

CVR Refining and CVR Partners are each considered VIEs because each of these limited partnerships lack both substantive kick-out and participating rights. In addition, CVR Energy also concluded that, based upon its general partner's roles and rights in CVR Refining and CVR Partners as afforded by their respective partnership agreements, coupled with its exposure to losses and benefits in each of CVR Refining and CVR Partners through its significant limited partner interests, intercompany credit facilities and services agreements, it is the primary beneficiary of both CVR Refining and CVR Partners. Based upon this evaluation, CVR Energy continues to consolidate both CVR Refining and CVR Partners.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, cash held at consolidated affiliated partnerships and restricted cash, accounts receivable, due from brokers, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities and due to brokers are deemed to be reasonable estimates of their fair values because of their short-term nature. See Note 4, “Investments and Related Matters,” and Note 5, “Fair Value Measurements,” for a detailed discussion of our investments and other non-financial assets and/or liabilities.
The fair value of our long-term debt is based on the quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to us for debt of the same remaining maturities. The carrying value and estimated fair value of our long-term debt as of June 30, 2018 was approximately $7.9 billion and $8.0 billion, respectively. The carrying value and estimated fair value of our long-term debt as of December 31, 2017 was approximately $7.9 billion and $8.2 billion, respectively.
Cash Flow
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows is comprised of (i) cash and cash equivalents and (ii) cash held at consolidated affiliated partnerships and restricted cash.
Restricted Cash
Our restricted cash balance was $286 million and $574 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.
Revenue From Contracts With Customers and Contract Balances
As discussed below, on January 1, 2018, we adopted FASB ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Due to the nature of our business, we derive revenue from various sources in various industries. Investment segment and Holding Company revenues are not in scope of FASB ASC Topic 606. Railcar leasing and Real Estate leasing revenues are also not in scope of FASB ASC Topic 606. The following is a summary of our revenue recognition that is in scope of FASB ASC Topic 606 for certain of our reporting segments. In addition, we present disaggregated revenue information in Note 11, "Segment Reporting."

Automotive
Revenue:   Our Automotive segment recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product or service to a customer. Our Automotive segment revenue from retail and commercial sales is measured based on consideration specified in a contract with a customer and excludes any sales incentives and amounts collected on behalf of third parties. Automotive service revenues are recognized on completion of the service and consist of products and the labor charged for installing products or maintaining or repairing vehicles. Automotive services labor revenues are included in other revenues from operations in our condensed consolidated statements of operations, however, the sale of any installed parts or materials related to automotive services are included in net sales. Our Automotive segment recognizes revenues from extended warranties offered to its customers on tires its sells, including lifetime warranties for road hazard assistance (recognized over 3 years) and 1-year, 3-year and lifetime plans for alignments (recognized over 1 year, 3 years and 5 years, respectively), for which it receives payment upfront. Revenues from extended warranties are recognized over the term of the warranty contract with the satisfaction of its performance obligations measured using the output method. Our Automotive segment recognizes revenues from franchise fees, which it receives payment upfront, and franchise royalties, for which it receives payment over time. Revenues from upfront franchise fees are recognized at the time the store opens, as that is when our Automotive segment's performance obligations are deemed complete, and revenues from franchise royalties are recognized in the period in which royalties are earned, generally based on a percentage of franchise sales.
Contract balances:   Our Automotive segment has deferred revenue with respect to extended warranty plans of $42 million and $42 million as of June 30, 2018 and January 1, 2018, respectively, which are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, our Automotive segment recorded revenue of $6 million and $12 million, respectively, with respect to deferred revenue outstanding as of January 1, 2018. For deferred revenue outstanding as of June 30, 2018, our Automotive segment expects to recognize approximately $30 million in 2019 and thereafter.
Energy
Revenue: Our Energy segment revenues from the sale of petroleum products are recorded upon delivery of the products to customers, which is the point at which title is transferred and the customer has assumed the risk of loss. This generally takes place as product passes into the pipeline, as a product transfer order occurs within a pipeline system, or as product enters equipment or locations supplied or designated by the customer. For our Energy segment's nitrogen fertilizer products sold, revenues are recorded at the point in time at which the customer obtains control of the product, which is generally upon delivery and acceptance by the customer. Nitrogen fertilizer products are sold on a wholesale basis under a contract or by purchase order. Excise and other taxes collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities by our Energy segment are not included in reported revenues.
Many of the petroleum business' contracts have index-based pricing which is considered variable consideration that should be estimated in determining the transaction price. Our Energy segment determined that it does not need to estimate the variable consideration because the uncertainty related to the consideration is resolved on the pricing date or the date when the product is delivered. The nitrogen fertilizer business has an immaterial amount of variable consideration for contracts with an original duration of less than a year. A small portion of the nitrogen fertilizer partnership's revenue includes contracts extending beyond one year and contain variable pricing in which the majority of the variability is attributed to the market-based pricing. The nitrogen fertilizer business' contracts do not contain a significant financing component.
Our Energy segment has elected to not disclose the amount of the transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations for contracts with an original expected duration of less than one year. Our Energy segment has elected to not disclose variable consideration allocated to wholly unsatisfied performance obligations that are based on market prices that have not yet been determined.
Contract balances:   Our Energy segment's deferred revenue is a contract liability that primarily relates to fertilizer sales contracts requiring customer prepayment prior to product delivery to guarantee a price and supply of nitrogen fertilizer. Deferred revenue is recorded at the point in time in which a prepaid contract is legally enforceable and the associated right to consideration is unconditional prior to transferring product to the customer. An associated receivable is recorded for uncollected prepaid contract amounts. Contracts requiring prepayment are generally short-term in nature and, as discussed above, revenue is recognized at the point in time in which the customer obtains control of the product. Our Energy segment had deferred revenue of $11 million and $34 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, which is included in accrued expense and other liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, our Energy segment recorded revenue of $20 million and $32 million, respectively, with respect to deferred revenue outstanding as of January 1, 2018.

Railcar
Revenue: Revenues from manufactured railcar sales are recognized following completion of manufacturing, inspection, customer acceptance and title transfer, which is when the risk for any damage or loss with respect to the railcars passes to the customer, in accordance with our Railcar segment's contractual terms. Revenues from railcar and industrial components are recorded at the time of product shipment, in accordance with our Railcar segment's contractual terms. Revenues from railcar maintenance services are recognized upon completion and shipment of railcars from our Railcar segment's plants. Our Railcar segment does not currently bundle railcar service contracts with new railcar sales. Revenues from engineering and field services are recognized as performed.
As of June 30, 2018, our Railcar segment had $241 million of remaining performance obligations for contractual commitments from customers for which work is partially completed. Our Railcar segment expects to recognize approximately $98 million of these performance obligations as revenue during the remainder of 2018 and an additional $143 million thereafter. There was no revenue recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 from performance obligations satisfied, or partially satisfied, in previous periods due to the adoption of FASB ASC Topic 606.
Contract balances:  ARI bills its customers once services have been rendered or products have been delivered and ARI has an unconditional right to consideration as only the passage of time is required before payment of that consideration is due. The contract assets that ARI maintains are related to unbilled revenues recognized on repair services that have been performed but the entire project has not yet been completed, and the railcar has not yet been shipped to the customer. Contract liabilities represent deferred revenue related to railcar manufacturing and repair services. Our Railcar segment contract assets and liabilities are not material.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
Revenue Accounting Standards Updates
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, creating a new topic, FASB ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, superseding revenue recognition requirements in FASB ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. This ASU requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, an entity is required to disclose sufficient information to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. This ASU was amended by ASU No. 2015-14, issued in August 2015, which deferred the original effective date by one year; the effective date of this ASU is for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, using one of two retrospective application methods. In addition, the FASB issued other amendments during 2016 and 2017 to FASB ASC Topic 606 that include implementation guidance to principal versus agent considerations, guidance to identifying performance obligations and licensing guidance and other narrow scope improvements. We adopted these new standards on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective application method which required a cumulative effect adjustment recognized in equity at such date. The standard has been applied to all contracts at the date of initial application. No adjustment to revenue for periods prior to adoption were required. We have not identified any material differences in our revenue recognition methods that required modification under the new standards. Additionally, our internal control framework did not materially change as a result of the adoption of these new standards. The impact of adopting these new standards on our condensed consolidated financial statements is a cumulative effect adjustment to decrease our equity attributable to Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings as of January 1, 2018 by $29 million, primarily relating to our Automotive segment.
As of January 1, 2018, our Automotive segment increased accrued expenses and other liabilities by $42 million and decreased deferred tax liabilities by $10 million for certain extended warranties to reflect the revenues from these plans as deferred revenue. Previously, revenues from these plans were recognized upfront. Our Automotive segment also recognizes revenue from the sale of goods on a drop ship basis. Previously, revenues from these transactions were recognized gross. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, net sales and costs of goods sold would have been higher by $16 million and $16 million, respectively, under prior accounting principles. For the six months ended June 30, 2018, net sales and cost of goods sold would have been higher by $32 million and $32 million, respectively.
As of January 1, 2018, our Energy segment increased each of accounts receivable, net and accrued expenses and other liabilities by $21 million for customer prepayments prior to delivery and to gross up certain fees collected from customers to reflect a receivable and deferred revenue recorded at the point in time in which a prepaid contract is legally enforceable and the associated right to consideration is unconditional. Previously, deferred revenue was recorded by our Energy segment upon customer prepayment.

In addition to the above, we increased assets by an aggregate of $32 million and increased liabilities by $29 million as of January 1, 2018, primarily assets and liabilities held for sale, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the impact on revenues would have been immaterial under prior accounting principles.
Other Accounting Standards Updates
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall, which amends FASB ASC Topic 825, Financial Instruments. This ASU requires that equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in the consolidation of the investee) to be measured at fair value with changes recognized in earnings. However, an entity may choose to measure equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values at cost minus impairment. In addition, there were other amendments to certain disclosure and presentation matters pertaining to financial instruments, including the requirement of an entity to use the exit price notion when measuring the fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted this new standard on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective application method which required a cumulative effect adjustment recognized in equity at such date. The amendments related to equity securities without readily determinable fair values were applied prospectively to equity investments that existed as of the date of adoption. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which amends FASB ASC Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows. This ASU seeks to reduce the diversity currently in practice by providing guidance on the presentation of eight specific cash flow issues in the statement of cash flows. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2018 using the retrospective application method. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Restricted Cash, which amends FASB ASC Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows. This ASU requires that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period total cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We have adopted this standard on January 1, 2018 using the retrospective application method. The impact of adopting this new standard is discussed above under "Reclassifications."
In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost, which amends FASB ASC Topic 715, Compensation - Retirement Benefits. This ASU requires entities to present the service cost component of net periodic benefit cost in the same line item or items in the financial statements as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by the pertinent employees during the period. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2018 using the retrospective application method. The impact of adopting this new standard is discussed above under "Reclassifications."
In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Scope of Modification Accounting, which amends FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation. This ASU provides updated guidance about which changes to the terms and conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We adopted this standard on January 1, 2018 which has been applied prospectively and which did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which supersedes FASB ASC Topic 840, Leases. This ASU requires the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous guidance. In addition, among other changes to the accounting for leases, this ASU retains the distinction between finance leases and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the previous guidance. Furthermore, quantification and qualitative disclosures, including disclosures regarding significant judgments made by management, will be required. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The amendments in this ASU should be applied using a modified retrospective approach. Early application is permitted. In addition, in July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases

(Topic 842), which provides an additional (and optional) transition method to adopt the new leases standard. We anticipate adopting the new leases standard using the new transition method option effective January 1, 2019, which will require adopting the new leases standard at the adoption date and recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of equity in the period of adoption instead of the earliest period presented. In addition, prior period presentation and disclosure will not be adjusted. We believe the most significant impact will relate to the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on our condensed consolidated balance sheets for long-term operating leases primarily within our Automotive segment. We anticipate our assessment and implementation plan to be ongoing during the remainder of 2018 and continue to evaluate the impact of this standard on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends FASB ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. This ASU requires financial assets measured at amortized cost to be presented at the net amount to be collected and broadens the information, including forecasted information incorporating more timely information, that an entity must consider in developing its expected credit loss estimate for assets measured. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, Targeting Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, which amends FASB ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging. This ASU includes amendments to existing guidance to better align an entity’s risk management activities and financial reporting for hedging relationships through changes to both the designation and measurement guidance for qualifying hedging relationships and the presentation of hedge results. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, which amends FASB ASC Topic 220, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income. This ASU allows a reclassification out of accumulated other comprehensive loss within equity for standard tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and consequently, eliminates the stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Related Party Transactions.
Our second amended and restated agreement of limited partnership expressly permits us to enter into transactions with our general partner or any of its affiliates, including, without limitation, buying or selling properties from or to our general partner and any of its affiliates and borrowing and lending money from or to our general partner and any of its affiliates, subject to limitations contained in our partnership agreement and the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act. The indentures governing our indebtedness contain certain covenants applicable to transactions with affiliates.
Investment Funds
During the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, Mr. Icahn and his affiliates (excluding us) invested $280 million and $600 million, respectively, in the Investment Funds, net of redemptions. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the total fair market value of investments in the Investment Funds made by Mr. Icahn and his affiliates (excluding us) was approximately $5.1 billion and $4.4 billion, respectively, representing approximately 60% and 59% of the Investment Funds' assets under management as of each respective date.
We pay for expenses pertaining to the operation, administration and investment activities of our Investment segment for the benefit of the Investment Funds (including salaries, benefits and rent). Effective April 1, 2011, based on an expense-sharing arrangement, certain expenses borne by us are reimbursed by the Investment Funds. For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, $2 million and $3 million, respectively, was allocated to the Investment Funds based on this expense-sharing arrangement and for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, such allocation was $2 million and $5 million, respectively.

million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Additionally, Federal-Mogul had payments to Hertz in the ordinary course of business of $1 million and $1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively.
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Investment Funds purchased shares of a certain investment from Hertz in the amount of $36 million.
In addition to our transactions with Hertz disclosed above, in January 2018, we entered into a Master Motor Vehicle Lease and Management Agreement with Hertz, pursuant to which Hertz granted 767 Auto Leasing LLC ("767 Leasing"), a joint venture created to purchase vehicles for lease, the option to acquire certain vehicles from Hertz at rates aligned with the rates at which Hertz sells vehicles to third parties. Under this agreement, Hertz will lease the vehicles that 767 Leasing purchases from Hertz, or from third parties, under a mutually developed fleet plan and Hertz will manage, service, repair, sell and maintain those leased vehicles on behalf of 767 Leasing. Additionally, Hertz will rent the leased vehicles to transportation network company drivers from rental counters within locations leased or owned by us. This agreement has an initial term of 18 months and is subject to automatic six-month renewals thereafter, unless terminated by either party (with or without cause) prior to the start of any such six-month renewal. Our agreement with Hertz was unanimously approved by the independent directors of Icahn Enterprises' audit committee. Due to the nature of our involvement with 767 Leasing, which includes guaranteeing the payment obligations of 767 Leasing and sharing in the profits of 767 Leasing with Hertz, we determined that 767 Leasing is a variable interest entity. Furthermore, we determined that we are not the primary beneficiary as we do not have the power to direct the activities of 767 Leasing that most significantly impact its economic performance. Therefore, we do not consolidate the results of 767 Leasing. As of June 30, 2018, we had an investment in 767 Leasing of $10 million. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, purchases from Hertz by 767 Leasing were $7 million.
ACF Industries, Inc.
Our Railcar segment has certain transactions with ACF Industries LLC ("ACF"), an affiliate of Mr. Icahn, under various agreements, as well as on a purchase order basis. ACF is a manufacturer and fabricator of specialty railcar parts and miscellaneous steel products. Agreements and transactions with ACF include the following:
Railcar component purchases from ACF;
Railcar parts purchases from and sales to ACF;
Railcar purchasing and engineering services agreements with ACF;
Lease of certain intellectual property to ACF;
Railcar repair services and support for ACF; and
Railcar purchases from ACF.
Purchases from ACF were $1 million and $2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, and $2 million and $4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. For each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, revenues from ACF were not material.
Insight Portfolio Group LLC
Insight Portfolio Group LLC ("Insight Portfolio Group") is an entity formed and controlled by Mr. Icahn in order to maximize the potential buying power of a group of entities with which Mr. Icahn has a relationship in negotiating with a wide range of suppliers of goods, services and tangible and intangible property at negotiated rates. Icahn Enterprises Holdings has a minority equity interest in Insight Portfolio Group and agreed to pay a portion of Insight Portfolio Group's operating expenses. In addition to the minority equity interest held by Icahn Enterprises Holdings, certain subsidiaries of ours, including Federal-Mogul, CVR Energy, PSC Metals, ARI, ARL (prior to June 1, 2017), Tropicana, Viskase and WPH also acquired minority equity interests in Insight Portfolio Group and agreed to pay a portion of Insight Portfolio Group's operating expenses. A number of other entities with which Mr. Icahn has a relationship also have minority equity interests in Insight Portfolio Group and also agreed to pay certain of Insight Portfolio Group's operating expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, we and certain of our subsidiaries paid certain of Insight Portfolio Group's operating expenses of $1 million and $1 million, and for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, such expenses paid were $2 million and $1 million, respectively, in respect to certain of Insight Portfolio Group's operating expenses.

Fair Value Measurements.
U.S. GAAP requires enhanced disclosures about investments and non-recurring non-financial assets and liabilities that are measured and reported at fair value and has established a hierarchal disclosure framework that prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring investments or non-financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Market price observability is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment. Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.
Investments and non-financial assets and/or liabilities measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:
Level 1 - Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments and non-financial assets and/or liabilities as of the reporting date.
Level 2 - Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies where all significant inputs are observable. The inputs and assumptions of our Level 2 investments are derived from market observable sources including reported trades, broker/dealer quotes and other pertinent data.
Level 3 - Pricing inputs are unobservable for the investment and non-financial asset and/or liability and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment or non-financial asset and/or liability. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. Fair value is determined using comparable market transactions and other valuation methodologies, adjusted as appropriate for liquidity, credit, market and/or other risk factors.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the investments', non-financial assets' and/or liabilities' level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to the investment. Significant transfers, if any, between the levels within the fair value hierarchy are recognized at the beginning of the reporting period when changes in circumstances require such transfers.

Net unrealized gains during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 relate to a certain equity investment which is considered a Level 3 investment due to unobservable market data and is measured at fair value on a recurring basis. We determined the fair value of this investment based on recent market transactions. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the fair value of this investment was $329 million and $274 million, respectively.
Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis for Which We Use Level 3 Inputs to Determine Fair Value
Certain assets measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs on a non-recurring basis have been impaired. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded impairment charges of $7 million relating to property, plant and equipment, and during the six months ended June 30, 2017, we recorded impairment charges of $2 million relating to property, plant and equipment. We determined the fair value of property, plant and equipment by applying probability weighted, expected present value techniques to the estimated future cash flows using assumptions a market participant would utilize. In addition, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, we recorded a loss of $2 million and $7 million, respectively, from marking inventory down to net realizable value at our Automotive segment. Additionally, in connection with our reclassification of certain railcars leased to others from held and used to assets held for sale, we recorded an impairment charge at our Railcar segment of $67 million for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2017. Refer to Note 11, "Segment Reporting," for total impairment recorded by each of our segments.

Financial Instruments.
Overview
Investment
In the normal course of business, the Investment Funds may trade various financial instruments and enter into certain investment activities, which may give rise to off-balance-sheet risks, with the objective of capital appreciation or as economic hedges against other securities or the market as a whole. The Investment Funds' investments may include futures, options, swaps and securities sold, not yet purchased. These financial instruments represent future commitments to purchase or sell other financial instruments or to exchange an amount of cash based on the change in an underlying instrument at specific terms at specified future dates. Risks arise with these financial instruments from potential counterparty non-performance and from changes in the market values of underlying instruments.
Credit concentrations may arise from investment activities and may be impacted by changes in economic, industry or political factors. The Investment Funds routinely execute transactions with counterparties in the financial services industry, resulting in credit concentration with respect to the financial services industry. In the ordinary course of business, the Investment Funds may also be subject to a concentration of credit risk to a particular counterparty. The Investment Funds seek to mitigate these risks by actively monitoring exposures, collateral requirements and the creditworthiness of its counterparties.
The Investment Funds have entered into various types of swap contracts with other counterparties. These agreements provide that they are entitled to receive or are obligated to pay in cash an amount equal to the increase or decrease, respectively, in the value of the underlying shares, debt and other instruments that are the subject of the contracts, during the period from inception of the applicable agreement to its expiration. In addition, pursuant to the terms of such agreements, they are entitled to receive or obligated to pay other amounts, including interest, dividends and other distributions made in respect of the underlying shares, debt and other instruments during the specified time frame. They are also required to pay to the counterparty a floating interest rate equal to the product of the notional amount multiplied by an agreed-upon rate, and they receive interest on any cash collateral that they post to the counterparty at the federal funds or LIBOR rate in effect for such period.
The Investment Funds may trade futures contracts. A futures contract is a firm commitment to buy or sell a specified quantity of a standardized amount of a deliverable grade commodity, security, currency or cash at a specified price and specified future date unless the contract is closed before the delivery date. Payments (or variation margin) are made or received by the Investment Funds each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the contract, and the whole value change is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss by the Investment Funds. When the contract is closed, the Investment Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.
The Investment Funds may utilize forward contracts to seek to protect their assets denominated in foreign currencies and precious metals holdings from losses due to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and spot rates. The Investment Funds' exposure to credit risk associated with non-performance of such forward contracts is limited to the unrealized gains or losses inherent in such contracts, which are recognized in other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
The Investment Funds may also enter into foreign currency contracts for purposes other than hedging denominated securities. When entering into a foreign currency forward contract, the Investment Funds agree to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed-upon future date unless the contract is closed before such date. The Investment Funds record unrealized gains or losses on the contracts as measured by the difference between the forward foreign exchange rates at the dates of entry into such contracts and the forward rates at the reporting date.
The Investment Funds may also purchase and write option contracts. As a writer of option contracts, the Investment Funds receive a premium at the outset and then bear the market risk of unfavorable changes in the price of the underlying financial instrument. As a result of writing option contracts, the Investment Funds are obligated to purchase or sell, at the holder's option, the underlying financial instrument. Accordingly, these transactions result in off-balance-sheet risk, as the Investment Funds' satisfaction of the obligations may exceed the amount recognized in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Certain terms of the Investment Funds' contracts with derivative counterparties, which are standard and customary to such contracts, contain certain triggering events that would give the counterparties the right to terminate the derivative instruments. In such events, the counterparties to the derivative instruments could request immediate payment on derivative instruments in net liability positions. The aggregate fair value of all of the Investment Funds' derivative instruments with credit-risk-related

The short notional amount on our credit default swap positions was approximately $2.5 billion as of December 31, 2017. However, because credit spreads cannot compress below zero, our downside short notional exposure to loss is $391 million as of December 31, 2017.
Energy
CVR Refining enters into commodity swap contracts in order to fix the margin on a portion of future production. Additionally, CVR Refining may enter into price and basis swaps in order to fix the price on a portion of its commodity purchases and product sales. The physical volumes are not exchanged and these contracts are net settled with cash. The contract fair value of the commodity swaps is reflected on the condensed consolidated balance sheets with changes in fair value currently recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets (Level 2) are considered to determine the fair values for the purpose of marking to market the hedging instruments at each period end. CVR Refining did not have open commodity swap instruments at June 30, 2018. At December 31, 2017, CVR Refining had open commodity swap instruments consisting of 14 million barrels of crack spreads, primarily to fix the margin on a portion of its future gasoline and distillate production. Additionally, as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, CVR Refining had open forward purchase and sale commitments for 4 million barrels and 6 million barrels, respectively, of Canadian crude oil priced at fixed differentials that are not considered probable of physical settlement and are accounted for as derivatives.
Consolidated Derivative Information
Certain derivative contracts executed by the Investment Funds with a single counterparty or by our Energy segment with a single counterparty are reported on a net-by-counterparty basis where a legal right of offset exists under an enforceable netting agreement. Values for the derivative financial instruments, principally swaps, forwards, over-the-counter options and other conditional and exchange contracts, are reported on a net-by-counterparty basis. As a result, the net exposure to counterparties is reported in either other assets or accrued expenses and other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Icahn Enterprises Rights Offering
In January 2017, Icahn Enterprises commenced a rights offering entitling holders of the rights to acquire newly issued depositary units of Icahn Enterprises. In connection with this rights offering, we received proceeds of $600 million during the six months ended June 30, 2017.
LP Unit Distribution
On February 27, 2018, Icahn Enterprises declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $1.75 per depositary unit in which each depositary unit holder had the option to make an election to receive either cash or additional depositary units.
On May 2, 2018, Icahn Enterprises declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $1.75 per depositary unit in which each depositary unit holder had the option to make an election to receive either cash or additional depositary units.
As a result of the above distributions declared, during the six months ended June 30, 2018, Icahn Enterprises distributed an aggregate 8,608,269 depositary units to unit holders electing to receive depositary units, of which an aggregate of 8,494,768 depositary units were distributed to Mr. Icahn and his affiliates. In connection with these distributions, aggregate cash distributions to all depositary unitholders was $47 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018.
2017 Incentive Plan
During the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, Icahn Enterprises distributed 3,087 and 2,358 depositary units, respectively, and 18,158 and 3,030 depositary units during the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, net of payroll withholdings, with respect to certain restricted depositary units and deferred unit awards that vested during the period in connection with the Icahn Enterprises L.P. 2017 Long Term Incentive Plan ("2017 Incentive Plan"). The aggregate impact of the 2017 Incentive Plan is not material with respect to our condensed consolidated financial statements, including the calculation of potentially dilutive units and diluted income per LP unit.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

11.
Segment Reporting.
We report segment information based on the various industries in which our businesses operate and how we manage those businesses in accordance with our investment strategies, which may include: identifying and acquiring undervalued assets and businesses, often through the purchase of distressed securities; increasing value through management, financial or other operational changes; and managing complex legal, regulatory or financial issues, which may include bankruptcy or insolvency, environmental, zoning, permitting and licensing issues. Therefore, although many of our businesses are operated under separate local management, certain of our businesses are grouped together when they operate within a similar industry, comprising similarities in products, customers, production processes and regulatory environments, and when such businesses, when considered together, may be managed in accordance with one or more investment strategies specific to those businesses. Among other measures, we assess and measure segment operating results based on net income from continuing operations attributable to Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings. Certain terms of financings for certain of our businesses impose restrictions on the business' ability to transfer funds to us, including restrictions on dividends, distributions, loans and other transactions.
Condensed Statements of Operations
Icahn Enterprises' condensed statements of operations by reporting segment are presented below. Icahn Enterprises Holdings' condensed statements of operations are substantially the same, with immaterial differences relating to our Holding Company's interest expense.

As discussed in Note 1, "Description of Business," we adopted FASB ASC Topic 606 effective January 1, 2018 which affected the revenue recognized on the of sale of goods on a drop ship basis.

Income Taxes.
On December 22, 2017, The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Legislation") was enacted in the United States, significantly revising certain U.S. corporate income tax provisions; including, among other items, a reduction of the U.S. corporate rate from 35% to 21%; the imposition of a deemed repatriation tax on unremitted foreign earnings to facilitate a shift from a worldwide tax system to a territorial system; and the creation of new limitations on certain deductions. We do not currently anticipate significant revisions to the amounts recorded. However, under the guidance of Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 issued on December 22, 2017, we will account for the income tax effects of any additional guidance associated with the Tax Legislation under the measurement period approach.
For the three months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded an income tax benefit of $12 million on pre-tax income from continuing operations of $421 million compared to an income tax expense of $3 million on pre-tax income from continuing operations of approximately $1.7 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2017. Our effective income tax rate was (2.9)% and 0.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the effective tax rate was lower than the statutory federal rate of 21%, primarily due to partnership income for which there was no tax expense, as such income is allocated to the partners, and favorable permanent tax adjustments, including estimated deductions related to internal reorganization of certain corporate entities within the American Entertainment Properties Corp. consolidated group.
For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the effective tax rate was lower than the statutory federal rate of 35%, primarily due to partnership income for which there was no tax expense, as such income is allocated to the partners.
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, we recorded an income tax expense of $14 million on pre-tax income from continuing operations of $835 million compared to an income tax benefit of $5 million on pre-tax income from continuing

operations of approximately $1.5 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2017. Our effective income tax rate was 1.7% and (0.3)% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the effective tax rate was lower than the statutory federal rate of 21%, primarily due to partnership income for which there was no tax expense, as such income is allocated to the partners, and favorable permanent tax adjustments, including estimated deductions related to internal reorganization of certain corporate entities within the American Entertainment Properties Corp. consolidated group.
For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the effective tax rate was lower than the statutory federal rate of 35%, primarily due to a decrease in the valuation allowance and partnership income for which there was no tax expense, as such income is allocated to the partners.

Commitments and Contingencies.
Environmental Matters
Due to the nature of our business, certain of our subsidiaries' operations are subject to numerous existing and proposed laws and governmental regulations designed to protect the environment, particularly regarding plant wastes and emissions and solid waste disposal. Our consolidated environmental liabilities were $38 million and $34 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, primarily within our Energy and Metals segments and which are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. In addition to the above, Federal-Mogul has environmental liabilities of $15 million and $16 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, which are included in liabilities held for


38

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

sale in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We do not believe that environmental matters will have a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
There have been no new developments or material changes to the environmental accruals or expected capital expenditures related to compliance with the environmental matters from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Renewable Fuel Standards
CVR Refining is subject to the Renewable Fuel Standard ("RFS") of the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") which requires refiners to either blend "renewable fuels" in with their transportation fuels or purchase renewable fuel credits, known as renewable identification numbers (“RINs”), in lieu of blending. Due to mandates in the RFS requiring increasing volumes of renewable fuels to replace petroleum products in the U.S. transportation fuel market, there may be a decrease in demand for petroleum products. CVR Refining is not able to blend the substantial majority of its transportation fuels and has to purchase RINs on the open market, as well as waiver credits for cellulosic biofuels from the EPA, in order to comply with the RFS.
The net cost of RINs for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 was $50 million and $106 million, respectively, and $27 million and $99 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, which is included in cost of goods sold in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. RINs expense includes the purchased cost of RINs, the impact of recognizing CVR Refining's uncommitted biofuel blending obligation at fair value based on market prices at each reporting date, and is reduced by the valuation change of RINs purchases in excess of CVR Refining's RFS obligation as of the reporting date. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, CVR Refining's biofuel blending obligation was $16 million and $28 million, respectively, which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and is reduced by the valuation change of RINs purchases in excess of CVR Refining's RFS obligation as of the reporting date. As of June 30, 2018, our Energy segment recorded a RINs asset within other assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheet of $14 million, representing excess RINs primarily due to a reduction in its RFS obligation during the first quarter of 2018.
Litigation
From time to time, we and our subsidiaries are involved in various lawsuits arising in the normal course of business. We do not believe that such normal routine litigation will have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.
Federal-Mogul
On March 3, 2017, certain purported former stockholders of Federal-Mogul Holdings Corporation filed a petition in the Delaware Court of Chancery seeking an appraisal of the value of common stock they claim to have held at the time of the January 23, 2017 merger of IEH FM Holdings, LLC into Federal-Mogul Holdings Corporation. IEH FM Holdings, LLC was a wholly owned subsidiary of Icahn Enterprises. Federal-Mogul Holdings LLC filed an answer to the petition on March 28, 2017. A second petition for appraisal was filed by purported former stockholders of Federal-Mogul Holdings Corporation on May 1, 2017. The two cases were consolidated on May 10, 2017, captioned In re Appraisal of Federal-Mogul Holdings LLC, C.A. No. 2017-0158-AGB. Discovery is ongoing and a trial date has not yet been set. Federal-Mogul believes that it has a meritorious defense and intends to vigorously defend the matter.
On April 25, 2014, a group of plaintiffs brought an action against Federal-Mogul Products, Inc. ("FM Products"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Federal-Mogul, alleging injuries and damages associated with the discharge of chlorinated hydrocarbons by the former owner of a facility located in Kentucky. Since 1998, when FM Products acquired the facility, it has been cooperating with the applicable regulatory agencies on remediating the prior discharges pursuant to an order entered into by the facility’s former owner. FM Products negotiated a settlement agreement with plaintiff's counsel which was approved by the required number of plaintiffs and, following a fairness hearing, given final approval by the court on July 13, 2018. FM Products will pay approximately $3 million pursuant to the settlement agreement, likely during the third quarter of 2018.
Other Matters
FRA Directive
On September 30, 2016, the Federal Railroad Administration ("FRA") issued Railworthiness Directive ("RWD") No. 2016-01 (the "Original Directive"). The Original Directive addressed, among other things, certain welding practices in one weld area in specified DOT 111 tank railcars manufactured between 2009 and 2015 by ARI and ACF. Our Railcar segment met and corresponded with the FRA following the issuance of the Original Directive to express its concerns with the Original Directive and its impact on our Railcar segment, as well as the industry as a whole. On November 18, 2016 (the "Issuance Date"), the


39


ICAHN ENTERPRISES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES
ICAHN ENTERPRISES HOLDINGS L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

FRA issued RWD No. 2016-01 [Revised] (the "Revised Directive"). The Revised Directive changed and superseded the Original Directive in several ways.
The Revised Directive required owners to identify their subject tank railcars and then from that population identify the 15% of subject tank railcars then in hazardous materials service with the highest mileage in each tank car owner’s fleet. Visual inspection of each of the subject tank railcars is required by the car operator prior to putting any railcar into service. Owners must ensure appropriate inspection, testing and repairs, if needed, within twelve months of the Issuance Date for the 15% of their subject tank railcars identified to be in hazardous materials service with the highest mileage. The FRA reserved the right to impose additional test and inspection requirements for the remaining tank railcars subject to the Revised Directive. The FRA also reserved the right to seek civil penalties or to take any other appropriate enforcement action for violation of the Federal Hazardous Materials Regulations that have occurred.
Although the Revised Directive addressed some of our Railcar segment's concerns and clarified certain requirements of the Original Directive, our Railcar segment identified significant issues with the Revised Directive. As a result, in December 2016, our Railcar segment sought judicial review of and relief from the Revised Directive by filing a petition for review against the FRA in the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
On August 17, 2017, our Railcar segment entered into a settlement agreement with the FRA, which covered the subject railcars owned by our Railcar segment. This agreement, among other things, extended the deadline for our Railcar segment to complete the inspection, testing and repairs, if needed, for the 15% identified railcars to December 31, 2017. Adding clarity regarding certain unknown requirements referenced in the Revised Directive, under the settlement agreement, our Railcar segment is required to inspect, test, and if necessary repair the remaining 85% subject tank railcars at the next tank railcar qualification, scheduled routine or regular maintenance, shopping or repair event, but no later than December 31, 2025. However, the settlement agreement permits our Railcar segment to: (i) if the FRA does not impose a similar requirement by July 31, 2018 on other owners’ railcars subject to the Revised Directive, suspend compliance with this requirement until such time as the FRA imposes requirements on all 85% railcars subject to the Revised Directive, and (ii) elect to be governed by any different requirements later imposed by the FRA on other owners’ railcars subject to the Revised Directive. In addition, the settlement agreement also provides that railcars owned by our Railcar segment are no longer required to have a surface inspection performed when the railcars are being inspected pursuant to the Revised Directive. The description above includes a summary of the terms of the settlement agreement. Finally, as part of the settlement agreement, our Railcar segment dismissed its lawsuit against the FRA.
Our Railcar segment has evaluated its potential exposure related to the Revised Directive and has a loss contingency reserve remaining of $9 million, as of June 30, 2018, to cover its probable and estimable liabilities with respect to our Railcar segment's response to the Revised Directive. The loss contingency reserve takes into account information available as of June 30, 2018 and our Railcar segment's contractual obligations in its capacity as both a manufacturer and owner of railcars subject to the Revised Directive. This amount is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. This amount will continue to be evaluated as our Railcar segment's and its customers' compliance with the Revised Directive and the settlement agreement progress. Actual results could differ from this estimate.
Pension Obligations
Mr. Icahn, through certain affiliates, owns 100% of Icahn Enterprises GP and approximately 91.3% of Icahn Enterprises' outstanding depositary units as of June 30, 2018. Applicable pension and tax laws make each member of a “controlled group” of entities, generally defined as entities in which there is at least an 80% common ownership interest, jointly and severally liable for certain pension plan obligations of any member of the controlled group. These pension obligations include ongoing contributions to fund the plan, as well as liability for any unfunded liabilities that may exist at the time the plan is terminated. In addition, the failure to pay these pension obligations when due may result in the creation of liens in favor of the pension plan or the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation ("PBGC") against the assets of each member of the controlled group.
As a result of the more than 80% ownership interest in us by Mr. Icahn’s affiliates and our ownership of more than 80% in certain of our subsidiaries, we and certain of our subsidiaries are subject to the pension liabilities of entities in which Mr. Icahn has a direct or indirect ownership interest of at least 80%. ACF and Federal-Mogul, are the sponsors of several pension plans. All the minimum funding requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended, and the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended by the Pension Protection Act of 2006, for these plans have been met as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. If the plans were voluntarily terminated, they would be underfunded by approximately $435 million and $424 million as of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. These results are based on the most recent information provided by the plans’ actuaries. These liabilities could increase or decrease, depending on a number of factors, including future changes in benefits, investment returns, and the assumptions used to calculate the liability. As members of the controlled group,


40


ICAHN ENTERPRISES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES
ICAHN ENTERPRISES HOLDINGS L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

we would be liable for any failure of ACF and Federal-Mogul to make ongoing pension contributions or to pay the unfunded liabilities upon a termination of the pension plans of ACF and Federal-Mogul. In addition, other entities now or in the future within the controlled group in which we are included may have pension plan obligations that are, or may become, underfunded and we would be liable for any failure of such entities to make ongoing pension contributions or to pay the unfunded liabilities upon termination of such plans.
The current underfunded status of the pension plans of ACF and Federal-Mogul requires them to notify the PBGC of certain “reportable events,” such as if we cease to be a member of the ACF and Federal-Mogul controlled group, or if we make certain extraordinary dividends or stock redemptions. The obligation to report could cause us to seek to delay or reconsider the occurrence of such reportable events.
Starfire Holding Corporation ("Starfire") which is 99.4% owned by Mr. Icahn, has undertaken to indemnify us and our subsidiaries from losses resulting from any imposition of certain pension funding or termination liabilities that may be imposed on us and our subsidiaries or our assets as a result of being a member of the Icahn controlled group. The Starfire indemnity (which does not extend to pension liabilities of our subsidiaries that would be imposed on us as a result of our interest in these subsidiaries and not as a result of Mr. Icahn and his affiliates holding more than an 80% ownership interest in us, and as such would not extend to the unfunded pension termination liability for Federal-Mogul) provides, among other things, that so long as such contingent liabilities exist and could be imposed on us, Starfire will not make any distributions to its stockholders that would reduce its net worth to below $250 million. Nonetheless, Starfire may not be able to fund its indemnification obligations to us.
Other
The U.S. Attorney’s office for the Southern District of New York contacted Icahn Enterprises L.P. in September 2017 seeking production of information pertaining to our and Mr. Icahn’s activities relating to the Renewable Fuels Standard and Mr. Icahn’s role as an advisor to the President. We are cooperating with the request and are providing information in response to the subpoena. The U.S. Attorney’s office has not made any claims or allegations against us or Mr. Icahn. We maintain a strong compliance program and, while no assurances can be made, we do not believe this inquiry will have a material impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Subsequent Events.
Icahn Enterprises
On July 31, 2018, the Board of Directors of the general partner of Icahn Enterprises declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $1.75 per depositary unit. The quarterly distribution is payable in either cash or additional depositary units, at the election of each depositary unit holder and will be paid on or about September 18, 2018 to depositary unit holders of record at the close of business on August 13, 2018. Depositary unit holders have until September 7, 2018 to make an election to receive either cash or additional depositary units; if a holder does not make an election, it will automatically be deemed to have elected to receive the distribution in cash. Depositary unit holders who elect to receive additional depositary units will receive units valued at the volume weighted average trading price of the units on NASDAQ during the 5 consecutive trading days ending September 14, 2018. No fractional depositary units will be issued pursuant to the distribution payment. Icahn Enterprises will make a cash payment in lieu of issuing fractional depositary units to any holders electing to receive depositary units. Any

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion is intended to assist you in understanding our present business and the results of operations together with our present financial condition. This section should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2018 (this "Report").
Executive Overview
Introduction
Icahn Enterprises L.P. (“Icahn Enterprises”) is a master limited partnership formed in Delaware on February 17, 1987. Icahn Enterprises Holdings L.P. (“Icahn Enterprises Holdings”) is a limited partnership formed in Delaware on February 17, 1987. References to "we," "our" or "us" herein include both Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings and their subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise requires.
Icahn Enterprises owns a 99% limited partner interest in Icahn Enterprises Holdings L.P. ("Icahn Enterprises Holdings"). Icahn Enterprises Holdings and its subsidiaries own substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Icahn Enterprises and conduct substantially all of its operations. Therefore, the financial results of Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings are substantially the same, with differences relating primarily to allocations to the general and limited partners. We do not discuss Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings separately unless we believe it is necessary to an understanding of the businesses.
We are a diversified holding company owning subsidiaries currently engaged in the following continuing operating businesses: Investment, Automotive, Energy, Railcar, Metals, Mining, Food Packaging, Real Estate and Home Fashion. We also report the results of our Holding Company, which includes the results of certain subsidiaries of Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings (unless otherwise noted), and investment activity and expenses associated with our Holding Company.
Significant Transactions and Developments
Discontinued Operations. In April 2018, we announced definitive agreements to sell Federal-Mogul LLC ("Federal-Mogul") and Tropicana Entertainment Inc. ("Tropicana"). The transactions are expected to close in the second half of 2018. The results of Federal-Mogul and Tropicana are reported in discontinued operations and classified as held for sale for all periods presented.

Results of Operations
Consolidated Financial Results
Our operating businesses comprise consolidated subsidiaries which operate in various industries and are managed on a decentralized basis. Results of operations for our continuing operating businesses primarily consist of net sales of various products, services revenue, franchisor operations and leasing of certain assets. Due to the structure and nature of our business, we primarily discuss the results of operations by individual reporting segment in order to better understand our consolidated operating performance. Certain other financial information is discussed on a consolidated basis following our segment discussion, including our results from discontinued operations. In addition to the summarized financial results below, refer to Note 11, "Segment Reporting," to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a reconciliation of each of our reporting segment's results of continuing operations to our consolidated results.
The comparability of our summarized consolidated financial results from continuing operations presented below is affected by, among other factors, (i) the performance of the Investment Funds, (ii) various acquisitions, primarily within our Automotive segment during 2017 and (iii) dispositions of assets, primarily with respect to our railcar lease fleet in 2017. Refer to our respective segment discussions and "Other Consolidated Results of Operations," below for further discussion.

Investment
We invest our proprietary capital through various private investment funds ("Investment Funds"). As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, we had investments with a fair market value of approximately $3.3 billion and $3.0 billion, respectively, in the Investment Funds. As of June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the total fair market value of investments in the Investment Funds made by Mr. Icahn and his affiliates (excluding us) was approximately $5.1 billion and $4.4 billion, respectively.
Our Investment segment's results of operations are reflected in net income on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Our Investment segment's net income is driven by the amount of funds allocated to the Investment Funds and the performance of the underlying investments in the Investment Funds. Future funds allocated to the Investment Funds may increase or decrease based on the contributions and redemptions by our Holding Company and by Mr. Icahn and his affiliates. Additionally, historical performance results of the Investment Funds are not indicative of future results as past market conditions, investment opportunities and investment decisions may not occur in the future. Changes in general market conditions coupled with changes in exposure to short and long positions have significant impact on our Investment segment's results of operations and the comparability of results of operations year over year and as such, future results of operations will be impacted by our future exposures and future market conditions, which may not be consistent with prior trends. Refer to the "Investment Segment Liquidity" section of our "Liquidity and Capital Resources" discussion for additional information regarding our Investment segment's exposure as of June 30, 2018.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
For the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Investment Funds' positive performance was driven by net gains in their long positions, offset in part by net losses in their short positions. The positive performance of our Investment segment's long positions was driven by gains from an energy sector investment and a consumer, non-cyclical sector investment aggregating $478 million, offset in part by losses from a consumer non-cyclical sector investment of $106 million. The aggregate performance of investments with net gains across various other sectors accounted for the additional positive performance of our Investment segment's long positions. Losses in short positions were attributable to the negative performance of broad market hedges of $167 million offset in part by the performance of short positions with net gains across various other sectors.
For the three months ended June 30, 2017, our Investment Funds' positive performance was driven by net gains in their long and short positions. The positive performance of our Investment segment's long positions was driven by gains from two consumer, non-cyclical sector investments with gains aggregating $422 million. The aggregate performance of investments with gains across various other sectors accounted for the additional positive performance of our Investment segment's long positions. These gains were offset in part by the aggregate performance of investments with losses across various sectors,

including a consumer non-cyclical sector investment with a loss of $141 million. Gains in short positions were attributable to the positive performance of three consumer, cyclical sector investments with gains aggregating $448 million offset in part by the negative performance of broad market hedges aggregating $378 million and losses from various other short positions.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
For the six months ended June 30, 2018, the Investment Funds' positive performance was driven by net gains in their long positions. The positive performance of our Investment segment's long positions was driven by gains from an energy sector investment and consumer, non-cyclical sector investment aggregating approximately $1.0 billion, offset in part by losses from a consumer non-cyclical sector investment of $158 million and the aggregate performance of investments with net losses across various other sectors.
For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Investment Funds' positive performance was driven by net gains in their long positions, offset in part by net losses in their short positions. The positive performance of our Investment segment's long positions was driven by gains from two consumer, non-cyclical sector investments, an energy sector investment and a technology sector investment with gains aggregating approximately $1.0 billion. The aggregate performance of investments with gains across various other sectors accounted for the additional positive performance of our Investment segment's long positions. These gains were offset in part by the aggregate performance of investments with losses across various sectors, including a consumer non-cyclical sector investment with a loss of $236 million. Losses in short positions were attributable to the negative performance of broad market hedges of approximately $1.1 billion and the negative performance of various other short positions across multiple sectors.

Automotive
Our Automotive segment's results of operations are generally driven by the distribution and installation of automotive parts and are affected by the relative strength of automotive part replacement trends, among other factors. Acquisitions in recent years within our Automotive segment, including our acquisitions of the franchise businesses of Precision Tune Auto Care and American Driveline Systems, the franchisor of AAMCO and licensor of Cottman Transmission service centers, in 2017, provided operating synergies, expanded our market presence, strengthened our parts distribution channel and enhanced our Automotive segment's ability to better service its customers. Our Automotive segment's results of operations also include automotive services labor. Automotive services labor revenues are included in other revenues from operations in our condensed consolidated statements of operations, however, the sale of any installed parts or materials related to automotive services are included in net sales. Therefore, we discuss the combined results of our automotive net sales and automotive services labor revenues below.
Our Automotive segment is in the process of implementing a multi-year transformation plan, which includes the integration and restructuring of the operations of The Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack ("Pep Boys"), IEH Auto Parts Holding LLC ("IEH Auto") and the franchise businesses of Precision Tune Auto Care and American Driveline Systems. Our Automotive segment's priorities include:
Positioning the service business to take advantage of opportunities in the do-it-for-me market and vehicle fleets;
Growing the commercial parts distribution business in high volume markets;
Optimizing inventory across Icahn Automotive's parts and tire distribution network;
Optimizing the store and warehouse footprint through openings, closings, consolidations and conversions by market;
Digital initiatives including a new e-commerce platform and enhanced e-fulfillment capabilities;
Investment in customer experience initiatives such as enhanced customer loyalty programs and selective upgrades in facilities;
Investment in employees with focus on training and career development investments; and
Continued integration of the businesses including, but not limited to, supply chain and information technology capabilities.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
Net sales and automotive services labor revenues for our Automotive segment for the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $43 million (6%) as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was due to acquisitions which accounted for $33 million of the increase and organic revenue growth of $28 million, offset in part by $18 million from the effects of the adoption of FASB ASC Topic 606. On an organic basis, commercial sales increased $17 million (7%) driven by growth in both Pep Boys commercial programs as well as increases in IEH Auto sales, service sales (including labor) increased $13 million (4%) due to growing do-it-for-me and fleet businesses, and retail sales decreased $2 million (1%).
Cost of goods sold and automotive services labor for the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $9 million (2%), as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was due to volume increases offset in part by the effects of the adoption of FASB ASC Topic 606 as discussed above. Gross margin on net sales and automotive services labor revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $34 million (17%) as compared to the comparable prior year period. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales and automotive services labor revenues was 32% and 29% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The improvement in gross margin primarily reflects higher margin percentages from franchisor operations as well as higher margins in automotive services due to cost improvements and selective price increases.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
Net sales and automotive services labor revenues for our Automotive segment for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $92 million (7%) as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was due to acquisitions which accounted for $71 million of the increase and organic revenue growth of $57 million, offset in part by $36 million from the effects of the adoption of FASB ASC Topic 606. On an organic basis, services sales (including labor) increased $33 million (6%) due to growing do-it-for-me and fleet businesses, commercial sales increased $25 million (6%) driven by growth in both Pep Boys commercial programs as well as increases in IEH Auto sales, and retail sales decreased by $1 million (0%).
Cost of goods sold and automotive services labor for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $27 million (3%), as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was due to volume increases offset in part by the effects of the adoption of FASB ASC Topic 606 as discussed above. Gross margin on net sales and automotive services labor revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $65 million (17%) as compared to the comparable prior year period. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales and automotive services labor revenues was 31% and 29% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The improvement in gross margin primarily reflects higher margin percentages from franchisor operations as well as higher margins in automotive services due to cost improvements and selective price increases.

Energy
Our Energy segment is primarily engaged in the petroleum refining and nitrogen fertilizer manufacturing businesses. The petroleum business accounted for approximately 95%, and 94% of our Energy segment's net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
The results of operations of the petroleum business are primarily affected by the relationship between refined product prices and the prices for crude oil and other feedstocks that are processed and blended into petroleum products, such as gasoline, diesel fuel and jet fuel, that are produced by a refinery ("refined products"). The cost to acquire crude oil and other feedstocks and the price for which refined products are ultimately sold depend on factors beyond our Energy segment's control, including the supply of and demand for crude oil, as well as gasoline and other refined products. This supply and demand depends on, among other factors, changes in domestic and foreign economies, weather conditions, domestic and foreign political affairs, production levels, the availability of imports, the marketing of competitive fuels and the extent of government regulation. Because the petroleum business applies first-in, first-out accounting to value its inventory, crude oil price movements may impact gross margin in the short term because of changes in the value of its unhedged on-hand inventory. The effect of changes in crude oil prices on the petroleum business' results of operations is influenced by the rate at which the prices of refined products adjust to reflect these changes.


47


In addition to current market conditions, there are long-term factors that may impact the demand for refined products. These factors include mandated renewable fuels standards, proposed climate change laws and regulations, and increased mileage standards for vehicles. The petroleum business is also subject to the Renewable Fuel Standard of the United States Environmental Protection Agency, which requires it to either blend “renewable fuels” in with its transportation fuels or purchase renewable fuel credits, known as renewable identification numbers (“RINs”), in lieu of blending. The price of RINs has been extremely volatile and the future cost of RINs for the petroleum business is difficult to estimate. Additionally, the cost of RINs is dependent upon a variety of factors, which include the availability of RINs for purchase, the price at which RINs can be purchased, transportation fuel production levels, the mix of the petroleum business' petroleum products, as well as the fuel blending performed at its refineries and downstream terminals, all of which can vary significantly from period to period. Refer to Note 16, "Commitments and Contingencies," to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion of RINs.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
Net sales for our Energy segment increased by $480 million (33%) for the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to our petroleum business as a result of higher sales prices, including increases of approximately 32% for gasoline and 42% for distillates as compared to the comparable prior year period. This increase was offset in part by a decrease in sales volume for our petroleum and nitrogen fertilizer business' products.
Cost of goods sold for our Energy segment increased by $360 million (25%) for the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to our petroleum business as a result of a higher cost of consumed crude oil costs due to an increase in crude oil prices. This increase was offset in part by volume decreases for our petroleum business' products and lower third-party costs and volume for our nitrogen fertilizer business.
Gross margin for our Energy segment increased by $120 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable prior year period. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 7% and 1% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, with an increase attributable to our petroleum business offset in part by a decrease attributable to our fertilizer business. The increase in the gross margin as a percentage of net sales for our petroleum business was primarily due to higher gross margins per barrel resulting from a higher spread between crude oil and transportation fuels pricing.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
Net sales for our Energy segment increased by $509 million (17%) for the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to our petroleum business as a result of higher sales prices, including increases of approximately 26% for gasoline and 35% for distillates as compared to the comparable prior year period. This increase was offset in part by a decrease in sales volume for our petroleum and nitrogen fertilizer business' products.
Cost of goods sold for our Energy segment increased by $372 million (13%) for the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to our petroleum business as a result of a higher cost of consumed crude oil costs due to an increase in crude oil prices, offset in part by a decrease in the cost of other feedstocks and RINs as well as by volume decreases for our petroleum business' products.
Gross margin for our Energy segment increased by $137 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable prior year period. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 7% and 4% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, with an increase attributable to our petroleum business offset in part by a decrease attributable to our fertilizer business. The increase in the gross margin as a percentage of net sales for our petroleum business was primarily due to higher gross margins per barrel resulting from a higher spread between crude oil and transportation fuels pricing.

Gross margin from manufacturing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $1 million as compared to the comparable prior year period. Gross margin from manufacturing operations as a percentage of manufacturing revenues was 8% and 9% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The decrease in gross margin as a percentage of revenue was due to higher costs associated with lower production volumes and a more competitive market for both hopper and tank railcars.
Railcar leasing revenues decreased for the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the comparable prior year period due to a decrease in leased railcars as a result of the sale of ARL in 2017 as well as a decrease in weighted average lease rates. The lease fleet decreased to 13,128 railcars at June 30, 2018 from 16,905 railcars at June 30, 2017.

Metals
The scrap metals business is highly cyclical and is substantially dependent upon the overall economic conditions in the United States and other global markets. Ferrous and non-ferrous scrap has been historically vulnerable to significant declines in consumption and product pricing during prolonged periods of economic downturn or stagnation. 
Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $30 million (29%) compared to the comparable prior year period primarily due to higher shipment volumes of ferrous and non-ferrous materials and higher average selling prices for most grades of material. Ferrous selling prices increased due to higher market pricing as domestic mill production benefited from trade cases and speculation regarding the recent probe into steel imports. Improved consumer market pricing was also driven primarily by the increased demand from domestic steel mills. Non-ferrous shipment volumes increased primarily due to the capital investment in aluminum processing at one of our facilities made in late 2017, while higher pricing reflected higher terminal market prices.
Cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $26 million (27%) compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was due to higher shipment volumes, as discussed above, and to increased material costs due to higher market prices. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 6% and 4% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Our Metals segments continues to focus on disciplined buying and efforts to bring processing costs in line with volume and market pricing.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $45 million (22%) compared to the comparable prior year period primarily due to higher shipment volumes of ferrous and non-ferrous materials and higher average selling prices for most grades of material. Ferrous selling prices increased due to higher market pricing as domestic mill production benefited from trade cases and speculation regarding the recent probe into steel imports. Improved consumer market pricing was also driven primarily by the increased demand from domestic steel mills. Non-ferrous shipment volumes increased primarily due to the capital investment in aluminum processing at one of our facilities made in late 2017, while higher pricing reflected higher terminal market prices.
Cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $40 million (21%) compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to higher shipment volumes, as discussed above, and to increased material costs due to higher market prices. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 6% and 5% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. As discussed above, our Metals segments continues to focus on disciplined buying and efforts to bring processing costs in line with volume and market pricing.
Mining
Our Mining segment's performance is driven by global iron ore prices and demand for raw materials from Chinese steelmakers. Since acquiring Ferrous Resources Ltd. in 2015, our Mining segment has been concentrating on sales in its domestic market, Brazil.


50


Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased $4 million as compared to the comparable prior year period primarily due to iron ore price and volume increases. Cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased $6 million (46%) compared to the comparable prior year period due to a certain plant operation resuming in 2018, increasing the cost of production.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2018 decreased $9 million as compared to the comparable prior year period primarily due to iron ore price and volume decreases. Cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased $6 million (20%) compared to the comparable prior year period due to a certain plant operation resuming in 2018, increasing the cost of production, offset in part by volume decreases.
Food Packaging
Our Food packaging segment's results of operations are primarily driven by the production and sale of cellulosic, fibrous and plastic casings for the processed meat and poultry industry and derives a majority of its total net sales from customers located outside the United States.
Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $5 million (5%) as compared to the corresponding prior year period. The increase was primarily due to higher sales volume and the favorable effects of foreign exchange, offset in part by unfavorable price and product mix. Cost of goods sold for the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $5 million (7%) as compared to the corresponding prior year period due to higher sales volume, lower production volume resulting in lower fixed cost absorption, input material and labor cost increases, offset in part by lower cost related to acquisition synergies. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 23% and 24% for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $12 million (6%) as compared to the corresponding prior year period.

Cost of goods sold for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $14 million (10%) as compared to the corresponding prior year period due to higher sales volume, lower production volume resulting in lower fixed cost absorption, input material and labor cost increases, offset in part by lower cost related to acquisition synergies. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 22% and 24% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The decrease in gross margin as a percentage of net sales over the comparable periods was primarily due to increasing raw material costs and lower fixed cost absorption.
Real Estate
Real Estate revenues and expenses include sales of residential units, results from club operations and rental income and expenses, including income from financing leases. Sales of residential units are included in net sales in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Results from club and rental operations, including financing lease income, are included in other revenues from operations in our condensed consolidated financial statements. Revenue from our real estate operations for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 were substantially derived from income from club and rental operations.

Our consolidated selling, general and administrative for the three months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $45 million (15%) as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase from our Automotive segment of $46 million primarily due to the inclusion of various acquisitions of automotive businesses as well as costs associated with the growth of the commercial parts business.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
Our consolidated selling, general and administrative for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased by $75 million (12%) as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase from our Automotive segment of $88 million primarily due to the inclusion of various acquisitions of automotive businesses as well as costs associated with the growth of the commercial parts business. This increase was offset in part by a decrease in our Railcar segment due to the sale of ARL in the second quarter of 2017.
Interest Expense
Three Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
Our consolidated interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2018 decreased by $52 million as compared the corresponding prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to lower interest expense from our Investment segment attributable to a decrease in due to broker balances over the respective periods, as well as lower interest expense from our Railcar segment due to the sale of ARL in the second quarter of 2017. These decreases were offset in part by higher interest expense from our Holding Company due to debt refinancing in December 2017, resulting in debt with higher interest rates.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 and 2017
Our consolidated interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2018 decreased by $84 million as compared the corresponding prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to lower interest expense from our Investment segment attributable to a decrease in due to broker balances over the respective periods, as well as lower interest expense from our Railcar segment due to the sale of ARL in the second quarter of 2017. These decreases were offset in part by higher interest expense from our Holding Company due to debt refinancing in December 2017, resulting in debt with higher interest rates.
Income Tax Expense
Certain of our subsidiaries are partnerships not subject to taxation in our consolidated financial statements and certain other subsidiaries are corporations, or subsidiaries of corporations, subject to taxation in our consolidated financial statements. Therefore, our consolidated effective tax rate generally differs from the statutory federal tax rate. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, the statutory federal tax rate was 21% which decreased as compared to the statutory federal tax rate of 35% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, as a result of tax legislation enacted in December 2017. Refer to Note 13, "Income Taxes," to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of income taxes.
Discontinued Operations
As discussed in Note 1, "Description of Business," we operated discontinued operations previously included in our Automotive segment and our former Gaming segment effective in the second quarter of 2018. The sales of the businesses are each expected to close in the second half of 2018.
Following the sale of Federal-Mogul, we will obtain a non-controlling interest in Tenneco Inc. ("Tenneco"), the purchaser of Federal-Mogul. In addition, All of Federal-Mogul's outstanding debt at the time of closing will be assumed by Tenneco.
See Note 12, "Discontinued Operations," for financial information with respect to each of our discontinued operating businesses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Holding Company Liquidity
We are a holding company. Our cash flow and our ability to meet our debt service obligations and make distributions with respect to depositary units likely will depend on the cash flow resulting from divestitures, equity and debt financings, interest income, returns on our interests in the Investment Funds and the payment of funds to us by our subsidiaries in the form of loans, dividends and distributions. We may pursue various means to raise cash from our subsidiaries. To date, such means include receipt of dividends and distributions from subsidiaries, obtaining loans or other financings based on the asset values of subsidiaries or selling debt or equity securities of subsidiaries through capital market transactions. To the degree any distributions and transfers are impaired or prohibited, our ability to make payments on our debt or distributions on our depositary units could be limited. The operating results of our subsidiaries may not be sufficient for them to make distributions to us. In addition, our subsidiaries are not obligated to make funds available to us 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.
As of June 30, 2018, our Holding Company had cash and cash equivalents of $79 million and total debt of approximately $5.5 billion. As of June 30, 2018, our Holding Company had investments in the Investment Funds with a total fair market value of approximately $3.3 billion. We may redeem our direct investment in the Investment Funds upon notice. See "Segment Liquidity and Capital Resources" below for additional information with respect to our Investment segment liquidity.
Agreements to Sell Interests in Consolidated Subsidiaries
In April 2018, we announced definitive agreements to sell Federal-Mogul and Tropicana which are expected to provide significant additional liquidity to our Holding Company. Each transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2018. Refer to Note 1, "Description of Business," to the condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.
Distributions From/Investments In Subsidiaries
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we received $77 million in aggregate dividends and distributions from our Energy segment. In addition, CVR Energy and CVR Refining declared a quarterly dividend and distribution, respectively, which will result in an additional aggregate $57 million in dividends and distributions payable to us in the third quarter of 2018.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we received $26 million in aggregate dividends and distributions from our Railcar segment. In addition, ARI declared a quarterly dividend, which will result in an additional $5 million in dividends payable to us in the third quarter of 2018.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we received $22 million in distributions from our Real Estate segment.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we invested $240 million in our Automotive segment.
Purchase of Additional Interests in Consolidated Subsidiaries
During January 2018, we increased our ownership in Viskase to 78.6% through a rights offering for additional shares of Viskase common stock for an aggregate additional investment of $44 million.

Holding Company debt consists of various issues of fixed-rate senior unsecured notes issued by Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Finance Corp. and guaranteed by Icahn Enterprises Holdings. Interest on each of the senior unsecured notes are payable semi-annually.


53


The indentures governing our senior unsecured notes described above restrict the payment of cash distributions, the purchase of equity interests or the purchase, redemption, defeasance or acquisition of debt subordinated to the senior unsecured notes. The indentures also restrict the incurrence of debt or the issuance of disqualified stock, as defined in the indentures, with certain exceptions. In addition, the indentures require that on each quarterly determination date we and the guarantor of the notes (currently only Icahn Enterprises Holdings) maintain certain minimum financial ratios, as defined therein. The indentures also restrict the creation of liens, mergers, consolidations and sales of substantially all of our assets, and transactions with affiliates. Additionally, each of the senior unsecured notes outstanding as of June 30, 2018 are subject to optional redemption premiums in the event we redeem any of the notes prior to certain dates as described in the indentures.
As of June 30, 2018 and 2017, we were in compliance with all covenants, including maintaining certain minimum financial ratios, as defined in the indentures. Additionally, as of June 30, 2018, based on covenants in the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes, we are permitted to incur approximately $705 million of additional indebtedness.
Distributions on Depositary Units
On July 31, 2018, the Board of Directors of the general partner of Icahn Enterprises declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $1.75 per depositary unit. The quarterly distribution is payable in either cash or additional depositary units, at the election of each depositary unit holder and will be paid on or about September 18, 2018 to depositary unit holders of record at the close of business on August 13, 2018.
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, we declared two quarterly distributions aggregating $3.50 per depositary unit. Mr. Icahn and his affiliates elected to receive their proportionate share of these distributions in depositary units. Mr. Icahn and his affiliates owned approximately 91.3% of Icahn Enterprises' outstanding depositary units as of June 30, 2018. In connection with these distributions, aggregate cash distributions to all depositary unitholders was $47 million during the six months ended June 30, 2018
The declaration and payment of distributions is reviewed quarterly by Icahn Enterprises GP's board of directors based upon a review of our balance sheet and cash flow, our expected capital and liquidity requirements, the provisions of our partnership agreement and provisions in our financing arrangements governing distributions, and keeping in mind that limited partners subject to U.S. federal income tax have recognized income on our earnings even if they do not receive distributions that could be used to satisfy any resulting tax obligations. The payment of future distributions will be determined by the board of directors quarterly, based upon the factors described above and other factors that it deems relevant at the time that declaration of a distribution is considered. Payments of distributions are subject to certain restrictions, including certain restrictions on our subsidiaries which limit their ability to distribute dividends to us. There can be no assurance as to whether or in what amounts any future distributions might be paid.
Investment Segment Liquidity
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, affiliates of Mr. Icahn (excluding us and our subsidiaries) invested $280 million in the Investment Funds. In addition to investments by us and Mr. Icahn, the Investment Funds historically have access to significant amounts of cash available from prime brokerage lines of credit, subject to customary terms and market conditions.
Additionally, our Investment segment liquidity is driven by the investment activities and performance of the Investment Funds. As of June 30, 2018, the Investment Funds' had a net long notional exposure of 11%. The Investment Funds' long exposure was 99% (97% long equity and 2% long credit and other) and its short exposure was 88% (85% short equity, 3% short credit and other). The notional exposure represents the ratio of the notional exposure of the Investment Funds' invested capital to the net asset value of the Investment Funds at June 30, 2018.
Of the Investment Funds' 99% long exposure, 96% was comprised of the fair value of its long positions (with certain adjustments) and 3% was comprised of single name equity forward contracts and credit contracts. Of the Investment Funds' 88% short exposure, 4% was comprised of the fair value of our short positions and 84% was comprised of short credit default swap contracts and short broad market index swap derivative contracts.
With respect to both our long positions that are not notionalized (96% long exposure) and our short positions that are not notionalized (4% short), each 1% change in exposure as a result of purchases or sales (assuming no change in value) would have a 1% impact on our cash and cash equivalents (as a percentage of net asset value). Changes in exposure as a result of purchases and sales as well as adverse changes in market value would also have an effect on funds available to us pursuant to prime brokerage lines of credit.
With respect to the notional value of our other short positions (84% short exposure), our liquidity would decrease by the balance sheet unrealized loss if we were to close the positions at quarter end prices. This would be offset by a release of restricted cash balances collateralizing these positions as well as an increase in funds available to us pursuant to certain prime


54


brokerage lines of credit. If we were to increase our short exposure by adding to these short positions, we would be required to provide cash collateral equal to a small percentage of the initial notional value at counterparties that require cash as collateral and then post additional collateral equal to 100% of the mark to market on adverse changes in fair value. For our counterparties who do not require cash collateral, funds available from lines of credit would decrease.

Certain terms of financings for certain of our businesses impose restrictions on the business' ability to transfer funds to us, including restrictions on dividends, distributions, loans and other transactions.
Subsidiary Dividends and Distributions to Non-Controlling Interests
During the six months ended June 30, 2018, our Energy and Railcar segments had dividends and distributions to non-controlling interests of $58 million and $6 million, respectively.
Consolidated Cash Flows
Our Holding Company's cash flows are generally driven by payments and proceeds associated with our senior unsecured debt obligations and payments and proceeds associated with equity transactions with Icahn Enterprises' depositary unitholders. Additionally, our Holding Company's cash flows include transactions with our Investment and other operating segments. Our Investment segment's cash flows are primarily driven by investment transactions, which are included in net cash flows from operating activities due to the nature of its business, as well as contributions and distributions from Mr. Icahn and his affiliates (including Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings), which are included in net cash flows from financing activities. Our other operating segments' cash flows are driven by the activities and performance of each business as well as transactions with our Holding Company, as discussed below.
The following table summarizes cash flow information for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 for Icahn Enterprises' reporting segments, discontinued operations and our Holding Company:

Consolidated Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The critical accounting policies and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements that we believe affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements presented in this Report are described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and in the Notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Effective January 1, 2018, we adopted FASB ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Although this new standard is not expected to have a material impact on our ongoing results of operations, we determined that it was appropriate to identify our updated accounting policy as a critical accounting policy.
Except for the adoption of FASB ASC Topic 606, discussed above, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates during the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to those reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Refer to Note 2, "Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of recent accounting pronouncements applicable to us.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Except as discussed below, information about our quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk did not differ materially from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
Market Risk
Our predominant exposure to market risk is related to our Investment segment and the sensitivities to movements in the fair value of the Investment Funds' investments.
Investment
The fair value of the financial assets and liabilities of the Investment Funds primarily fluctuates in response to changes in the value of securities. The net effect of these fair value changes impacts the net gains from investment activities in our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The Investment Funds' risk is regularly evaluated and is managed on a position basis as well as on a portfolio basis. Senior members of our investment team meet on a regular basis to assess and review certain risks, including concentration risk, correlation risk and credit risk for significant positions. Certain risk metrics and other analytical tools are used in the normal course of business by the Investment segment.
The Investment Funds hold investments that are reported at fair value as of the reporting date, which include securities owned, securities sold, not yet purchased and derivatives as reported on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Based on their respective balances as of June 30, 2018, we estimate that in the event of a 10% adverse change in the fair value of these investments, the fair values of securities owned, securities sold, not yet purchased and derivatives would decrease by approximately $813 million, $37 million and $733 million, respectively. However, as of June 30, 2018, we estimate that the impact to our share of the net gain (loss) from investment activities reported in our condensed consolidated statement of operations would be less than the change in fair value since we have an investment of approximately 40% in the Investment Funds, and the non-controlling interests in income would correspondingly offset approximately 60% of the change in fair value.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
As of June 30, 2018, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of Icahn Enterprises' and Icahn Enterprises Holdings' and subsidiaries' disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to the Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2018 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
We are, and will continue to be, subject to litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Refer to Note 16, “Commitments and Contingencies” to the condensed consolidated financial statements, which is incorporated by reference into this Part II, Item 1 of this Report, for information regarding our lawsuits and proceedings.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.
Except for the risk factor disclosed below, there were no material changes to our risk factors during the six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to those reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
We are subject to the risk of becoming an investment company.
Because we are a holding company and a significant portion of our assets may, from time to time, consist of investments in companies in which we own less than a 50% interest, we run the risk of inadvertently becoming an investment company that is required to register under the Investment Company Act. In addition, events beyond our control, including significant appreciation or depreciation in the market value of certain of our publicly traded holdings or adverse developments with respect to our ownership of certain of our subsidiaries, could result in our inadvertently becoming an investment company that is required to register under the Investment Company Act. 
In April 2018, we announced definitive agreements to sell Federal-Mogul and Tropicana. Following the closing of our contemplated sale of Federal-Mogul, it is likely that we would be considered an investment company but for an exemption under the Investment Company Act that would provide us up to one year to take steps to avoid becoming classified as an investment company. We expect to take steps to avoid becoming classified as an investment company during this exemption period, but no assurance can be made that we will successfully be able to take the steps necessary to avoid becoming classified as an investment company.
If we are unsuccessful, then we will be required to register as a registered investment company and will be subject to extensive, restrictive and potentially adverse regulations relating to, among other things, operating methods, management, capital structure, dividends and transactions with affiliates. Registered investment companies are not permitted to operate their business in the manner in which we currently operate our business, nor are registered investment companies permitted to have many of the relationships that we have with our affiliated companies. In addition, if we become required to register under the Investment Company Act, it is likely that we would be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and would be subject to the tax consequences described under the caption, “Risk Factors - Risks Relating to Our Structure - We may become taxable as a corporation if we are no longer treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017.
If it were established that we were an investment company and did not register as an investment company when required to do so, there would be a risk, among other material adverse consequences, that we could become subject to monetary penalties or injunctive relief, or both, in an action brought by the Securities and Exchange Commission, that we would be unable to enforce contracts with third parties or that third parties could seek to obtain rescission of transactions with us undertaken during the period it was established that we were an unregistered investment company.
