Continuing to improve in all Environmental, Health and Safety matters - Safety is Job #1

Petroleum Segment had no recordable incidents in 1Q 2022, representing a 100% reduction from 1.7 in 1Q 2021. Fertilizer segment hadno

process safety incidents or recordable incidents and achieved a 50%reduction in environmental events for 1Q 2022 compared to1Q 2021.

Focusing capital spending on projects that are critical to safe and reliable operations

Deferring the majority of our growth capital spending, with the exception of renewablesprojects. Completed Wynnewoodturnaround in early April and planto complete turnarounds at the Coffeyville andEast Dubuque fertilizer facilities in the Summer of 2022.Planto complete a small turnaround at the Coffeyville Refinery in the Spring of 2023.

Positioning to take advantage of market recovery and potential near-term opportunities

Ended 1Q 2022 with total liquidity positionof $755 million(1) excludingCVR Partners. Increased liquidity position by 30% from year end 2021.

Leveraging our strategic location and proprietary gathering system to deliver high value neat crude oils to our refineries

Gathering volumes in 1Q 2022 averagedapprox. 114,000 bpdwith current rates at approx. 127,000 bpd. Working to further increase volumes and reduce purchases of Cushing WTI. Transportationandproduct yield advantages from gatheredcrude oils typically $ 0.50 - $1.00 per bbl relative to CushingWTI.

Reducing the carbon footprint of our operations and minimizing our exposure to Renewable Identification Numbers (RINs) through production of renewable biofuels

Wynnewood renewable diesel unit (RDU) completedin April2022 andwe are in the process of rampingup production. Construction of

Wynnewood pre-treatment unit (PTU) approvedby the Board and expected to be completedby 2Q 2023. Engineeringdesign underway on

potential CoffeyvilleRDU project. Pursuing 45Q tax credits for carbon capture andsequestrationactivities at Coffeyville fertilizer facility.

Minimize Lost

Opportunities

Minimizing lost profit opportunities and improving capture rates

Total 1Q 2022 lost profit opportunities (LPO) of $29mm down from $53mmin 1Q 2021. $9mm of the 1Q22 LPO and$43mm of the 1Q 2021 LPO was due to externalcauses, primarily as a result of a third-party outage at Coffeyville fertilizer facility for 2022 and primarily

Winter Storm Uri for 2021.

(1) Total liquidity as of March 31, 2022 comprised of $539 million of cash and availability under the ABL of $371 million, less cash included in the borrowing base of $155 million
