Eight firms place a USD 30.50 average target on CVR Energy stock, with four sell and four hold ratings, according to MarketBeat on September 29, 2026. The same report says CVR Energy generated USD 2.74 billion in revenue in the second quarter of 2026, up 55.50 percent year over year, while earnings per share reached USD 0.34 against a USD 0.26 consensus estimate.

Analysts see a USD 30.50 target

The consensus leaves a wide gap between the average target and the company picture presented by recent operating figures. The target is a third-party assessment, while the earnings comparison offers a concrete test of execution: CVR Energy exceeded the reported consensus by USD 0.08 per share in the second quarter.

MarketBeat also reported that CVR Energy paid a USD 0.10 quarterly dividend on August 17, 2026. The annualized payout was USD 0.40 per share, giving the distribution a separate income component alongside the cyclical refining and fertilizer businesses.

Operations span refining and fertilizer

CVR Energy's investor-relations materials describe two Mid-Continent refineries with combined nameplate capacity of 206,500 barrels per day. The company also owns 37.00 percent of CVR Partners common units and reports nitrogen fertilizer capacity of 2,375 tons of ammonia per day and 4,050 tons of urea ammonium nitrate per day, as stated on CVR Energy's investor-relations page.

Adjusted EBITDA reaches USD 517 million

A September 8, 2026 Form 8-K presentation showed 2025 consolidated adjusted EBITDA of USD 393 million and trailing-twelve-month adjusted EBITDA of USD 517 million. StockTitan reported that the materials also estimate 2026 petroleum capital expenditures at USD 119 million to USD 130 million and nitrogen fertilizer capital expenditures at USD 85 million to USD 95 million. Those ranges frame the investment burden behind the operating expansion story.

CVR Energy had a market capitalization of USD 5.7 billion and a 52-week range of USD 17.56 to USD 57.25 as of October 5, 2026. StockIQ lists October 27, 2026 as the next earnings date, placing the second-quarter comparison and the USD 30.50 analyst target ahead of the next scheduled reporting checkpoint.
