ICAHN ENTERPRISES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES
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 September 30, 2017 . 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 90.8% of Icahn Enterprises' outstanding depositary units as of September 30, 2017 .
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 Operating Businesses
We are a diversified holding company owning subsidiaries currently engaged in the following continuing operating businesses: Investment, Automotive, Energy, Railcar, Gaming, 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 12 , " 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 are 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 $2.9 billion and $1.7 billion as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively.
Automotive
We conduct our Automotive segment through our wholly owned subsidiaries Federal-Mogul LLC ("Federal-Mogul") and Icahn Automotive Group LLC ("Icahn Automotive"), which is the parent company of IEH Auto Parts Holding LLC and The Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack ("Pep Boys"). During January 2017, we increased our ownership in Federal-Mogul from 82.0% to 100% through a tender offer for the remaining shares of Federal-Mogul common stock not already owned by us and a subsequent short form merger for an aggregate purchase price of $305 million .
Federal-Mogul is engaged in the manufacture and distribution of automotive parts. Icahn Automotive is engaged in the distribution of automotive parts in the aftermarket as well as providing automotive 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 an independent petroleum refiner and marketer of high value transportation fuels. CVR Partners produces and markets nitrogen fertilizers in the form of urea ammonium nitrate and ammonia. As of September 30, 2017 , 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 September 30, 2017 , we owned approximately 82.0% of the total outstanding common stock of CVR Energy. In addition, as of September 30, 2017 , we directly owned approximately 3.9% of the total outstanding common units of CVR Refining.

Railcar
We conduct our Railcar segment through our majority ownership in American Railcar Industries, Inc. ("ARI") and, prior to June 1, 2017, our wholly owned subsidiary American Railcar Leasing, LLC ("ARL"). As of September 30, 2017 , we owned approximately 62.2% of the total outstanding common stock of ARI. As discussed below, we sold ARL, along with a majority of its railcar lease fleet, on June 1, 2017. As of September 30, 2017 , through a wholly owned subsidiary of ours, we continued to own 4,551 remaining railcars previously owned by ARL.
ARI is a North American designer and manufacturer of hopper and tank railcars. ARI provides its railcar customers with integrated solutions through a comprehensive set of high-quality products and related services through its manufacturing, leasing and railcar services operations. ARI's manufacturing consists of railcar manufacturing and railcar and industrial component manufacturing. ARI's railcar leasing business consists of railcars built by ARI leased to third parties under operating leases. ARI's railcar services consist of railcar repair, engineering and field services.
On December 19, 2016, Icahn Enterprises entered into a definitive agreement to sell ARL to SMBC Rail Services, LLC ("SMBC Rail"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, for cash based on (i) a value of approximately $2.8 billion (subject to certain adjustments) and (ii) a fleet of approximately 29,000 railcars (the "ARL Initial Sale"). The ARL Initial Sale closed on June 1, 2017. After repaying, or assigning to SMBC Rail, applicable indebtedness of ARL, we received cash consideration of approximately $1.3 billion in connection with the ARL Initial Sale, resulting in a pretax gain on disposition of assets for our Railcar segment of approximately $1.5 billion . For a period of three years after the closing of the ARL Initial Sale, and upon satisfaction of certain conditions, we have an option to sell, and SMBC Rail has an option to buy, the 4,551 remaining railcars owned by a wholly owned subsidiary of ours. The majority of these remaining railcars were sold subsequent to September 30, 2017 .
Gaming
We conduct our Gaming segment through our majority ownership in Tropicana Entertainment Inc. ("Tropicana") and our wholly owned subsidiary Trump Entertainment Resorts Inc. ("TER"), which we acquired out of bankruptcy in 2016. During August 2017, we increased our ownership in Tropicana from 72.5% to 83.9% through a tender offer for additional shares of Tropicana common stock not already owned by us for an aggregate purchase price of $95 million . In addition, Tropicana repurchased and retired shares of its common stock in connection with this tender offer for an aggregate purchase price of $36 million .
Tropicana is an owner and operator of regional casino and entertainment properties located in the United States and one hotel, timeshare and casino resort located on the island of Aruba. TER owned the Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort, which closed and ceased its casino and hotel operations in October 2016, and was subsequently sold on March 31, 2017. TER also owns Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino, which ceased operations in September 2014, prior to our obtaining a controlling interest in TER.
Metals
We conduct our Metals segment through our indirect wholly owned subsidiary, PSC Metals, Inc. (“PSC Metals”). PSC Metals is principally engaged in the business of collecting, processing and selling ferrous and non-ferrous metals, as well as the processing and distribution of steel pipe and plate products. PSC Metals collects industrial and obsolete scrap metal, processes it into reusable forms and supplies the recycled metals to its customers .
Mining
We conduct our Mining segment through our majority ownership in Ferrous Resources Ltd. ("Ferrous Resources"). As of September 30, 2017 , we owned approximately 77.2% of the total outstanding common stock of Ferrous Resources. Ferrous Resources acquired certain rights to iron ore mineral resources in Brazil and develops mining operations and related infrastructure to produce and sell iron ore products to the global steel industry.
Food Packaging
We conduct our Food Packaging segment through our majority ownership in Viskase Companies, Inc. ("Viskase").

Real Estate
Our Real Estate operations consist of rental real estate, property development and associated club activities. Our rental real estate operations consist primarily of office and industrial properties leased to single corporate tenants. Our property development operations are run primarily through a real estate investment, management and development subsidiary that focuses primarily on the construction and sale of single-family and multi-family homes, lots in subdivisions and planned communities and raw land for residential development.

In August 2017, our Real Estate segment sold a development property in Las Vegas, Nevada for $600 million , resulting in a pretax gain on disposition of assets of $456 million . The transaction included cash proceeds from the sale of $225 million and two tranches of seller financing totaling $375 million (including a $345 million first-lien mortgage and a $30 million second-lien mortgage), which is included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2017 .
Home Fashion
We conduct our Home Fashion segment through our indirect wholly owned subsidiary, WestPoint Home LLC (“WPH”). WPH's business consists of manufacturing, sourcing, marketing, distributing and selling home fashion consumer products.

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.
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, 2016 . 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 September 30, 2017 , 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 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.
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 and CVR Partners.

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

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.
Energy
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.
The following table includes balances of assets and liabilities of VIE's included in Icahn Enterprises Holdings' condensed consolidated balance sheets.

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, a ccounts 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 September 30, 2017 was approximately $11.2 billion and $11.5 billion , respectively. The carrying value and estimated fair value of our long-term debt as of December 31, 2016 was approximately $11.1 billion and $11.2 billion , respectively.
Restricted Cash
Our restricted cash balance was $866 million and $686 million as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively.
Accounts Receivable, net
Transfers of receivables relate primarily to our Automotive segment. Federal-Mogul's subsidiaries in Brazil, France, Germany, Italy, Canada and the United States are party to accounts receivable factoring and securitization facilities. Gross

ICAHN ENTERPRISES L.P. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

accounts receivable transferred under these facilities were $607 million and $487 million as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively. Of those gross amounts, $600 million and $485 million , respectively, qualify as sales in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The remaining transferred receivables were pledged as collateral and accounted for as secured borrowings and recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets within accounts receivable, net and debt. Under the terms of these facilities, Federal-Mogul is not obligated to draw cash immediately upon the transfer of accounts receivable. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , Federal-Mogul did not have any undrawn cash related to such transferred receivables.
Proceeds from the transfers of accounts receivable qualifying as sales were $424 million and $311 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and approximately $1.3 billion and $1.2 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Expenses associated with transfers of receivables were $2 million and $2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and $10 million and $9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. Such expenses were recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of operations within other income (loss), net. Where Federal-Mogul receives a fee to service and monitor these transferred receivables, such fees are sufficient to offset the costs and as such, a servicing asset or liability is not incurred as a result of such activities.
Held For Sale
As of December 31, 2016 , assets and liabilities held for sale primarily consisted of property plant and equipment and debt, respectively, and related primarily to our pending ARL Initial Sale as of December 31, 2016 . On June 1, 2017, we closed on the ARL Initial Sale and disposed of such assets and liabilities previously classified as held for sale.
During 2017, we identified additional assets and liabilities that meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale. As of September 30, 2017 , assets held for sale primarily consisted of the remaining railcars previously owned by ARL that we continued to own subsequent to the ARL Initial Sale.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications from the prior year presentation have been made to conform to the current year presentation.
Adoption of New Accounting Standards
In July 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory , which amends FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 330, Inventory . This ASU requires entities to measure inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value and eliminates the option that currently exists for measuring inventory at market value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. This ASU is effective beginning with our interim period beginning January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance was applied prospectively and had minimal impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-07, Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting , which amends FASB ASC Topic 323, Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures . This ASU eliminates the retroactive adjustment of an investment that qualifies for the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership or degree of influence as if the equity method had been in effect during all previous periods that the investment had been held. This ASU is effective beginning with our interim period beginning January 1, 2017. The adoption of this guidance had minimal impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting , which amends FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation . This ASU simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. This ASU is effective beginning with our interim period beginning January 1, 2017. During the first quarter of 2017, the board of directors of the general partner of Icahn Enterprises unanimously approved and adopted the Icahn Enterprises L.P. 2017 Long Term Incentive Plan (the "2017 Incentive Plan"), which became effective during the first quarter of 2017 subject to the approval by holders of a majority of Icahn Enterprises depositary units. The 2017 Incentive Plan permits us to issue depositary units and grant options, restricted units or other unit-based awards to all of our, and our affiliates', employees, consultants, members and partners, as well as the three non-employee directors of our general partner. One million of Icahn Enterprises' depositary units are initially available under the 2017 Incentive Plan. Prior to the adoption of the 2017 Incentive Plan, accounting for unit-based payments did not apply to us. Therefore, the adoption of this guidance in 2017 was the result of the adoption of the 2017 Incentive Plan and which had a minimal impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory , which amends FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes . This ASU requires the recognition of income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory when the transfer occurs. Current U.S. GAAP prohibits the recognition of current and deferred incomes taxes for an intra-entity asset transfer until the asset has been sold to an outside party. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. We have elected to early adopt this guidance in the first quarter of 2017. The impact of early adopting this guidance on our consolidated financial statements is a cumulative effect adjustment to decrease our equity attributable to Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings as of January 1, 2017 by $47 million to reverse previously deferred charges and recognize them in equity.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Clarifying the Definition of a Business , which amends FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations . This ASU provides guidance on what constitutes a business for purposes of applying FASB ASC Topic 805. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We have elected to early adopt this guidance in the first quarter of 2017. We did not have any material transactions affected by this guidance and therefore, the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment , which amends FASB ASC Topic 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other . This ASU simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating "Step 2" from the goodwill impairment test which, prior to adoption of this ASU, requires comparing the implied fair value of goodwill with its carrying value. By eliminating "Step 2" from the goodwill impairment test, the quantitative analysis of goodwill will result in an impairment loss for the amount that the carrying value of a reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds its fair value, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to the tested reporting unit. While this ASU reduces the complexity and cost of our goodwill impairment tests, it may result in significant differences in the recognition of goodwill impairment. For example, should our reporting units fail "Step 1" of the impairment tests but pass the current "Step 2" impairment tests, we may have more impairments of goodwill under the new guidance. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted beginning for interim and annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. We have elected to early adopt this guidance for our interim and annual goodwill impairment tests to be performed on testing dates beginning in 2017. This ASU principally affects our Automotive segment as substantially all of our goodwill balance pertains to our Automotive segment as of September 30, 2017 . We did not perform any interim goodwill impairment analysis in 2017 and therefore, the adoption of this guidance had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
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 have developed an implementation plan to adopt this new ASU. We will adopt these new standards on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective application method which will require a cumulative effect adjustment recognized in equity at such date. No adjustment to revenue for periods prior to adoption will be required. To date, we have not identified any material differences in our existing revenue recognition methods that would require modification under the new standards. Additionally, although we anticipate our internal controls to be modified as necessary, we do not anticipate our internal control framework to materially change as a result of the adoption of these new standards. The assessment of the impact of this new standard on our business processes, business and accounting systems, and consolidated financial statements and related disclosures will continue as we proceed with the design and implementation phases of the plan.
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. The amendments in this ASU should be applied by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the balance sheet as of the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The amendments related to equity securities without readily determinable fair values should be applied prospectively to equity investments that exist as of the date of adoption. Early application is permitted for certain matters only. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.
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 lease 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. 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. We anticipate our assessment and implementation plan to be ongoing during the remainder of 2017 and into 2018 and are currently unable to reasonably estimate the impact of this guidance on our 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 guidance on our consolidated financial statements.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payment s, 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 are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on our 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. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.
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. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on our consolidated financial statements.
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. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance on our 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 guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

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.
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, 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.

Transfers out of Level 3 during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 primarily relates to our previously held corporate debt investment in TER of $126 million . The investment was transferred out of Level 3 following TER's emergence from bankruptcy on February 26, 2016 and subsequently becoming a wholly owned consolidated subsidiary of ours upon the extinguishment of their debt and its conversion to equity in TER. Purchases during the nine months ended September 30, 2016 relates to an increase in a certain investment classified as trading securities 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

using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and other valuation techniques. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the fair value of this investment was $258 million and $207 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 nonrecurring basis have been impaired. During the three months ended September 30, 2016 , we recorded impairment charges of $79 million relating to property, plant and equipment. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , we recorded impairment charges of $2 million and $82 million , respectively, 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 nine months ended September 30, 2017 , we recorded a loss of $6 million from marking inventory down to net realizable value at our Automotive segment. Additionally, in connection with our reclassification of certain assets from held and used to assets held for sale at our Railcar and Automotive segments, we recorded aggregate impairment charges of $6 million and $74 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 , which represents the difference between the carrying value and fair value less cost to sell of such assets.

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 contingent features that are in a liability position at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $7 million and $39 million , respectively.
Automotive
Federal-Mogul is exposed to market risk, such as fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and changes in interest rates, which may result in cash flow risks. To manage the volatility relating to these exposures, Federal-Mogul aggregates the exposures on a consolidated basis to take advantage of natural offsets. For exposures not offset within its operations, Federal-Mogul enters into various derivative transactions pursuant to its risk management policies, which prohibit holding or issuing derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes, and designation of derivative instruments is performed on a transaction basis to support hedge accounting. The changes in fair value of these hedging instruments are offset in part or in whole by corresponding changes in the fair value or cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. Federal-Mogul assesses the initial and ongoing effectiveness of its hedging relationships in accordance with its documented policy.
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. At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , CVR Refining had open commodity swap instruments consisting of 16.2 million and 4.0 million barrels of crack spreads, respectively, primarily to fix the margin on a portion of its future gasoline and distillate production.
Consolidated Derivative Information
Certain derivative contracts executed by the Investment Funds with a single counterparty, by our Automotive segment 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.

Amortization expense associated with definite-lived intangible assets was $26 million and $23 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and $75 million and $72 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. We utilize the straight-line method of amortization, recognized over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Acquisitions
Acquisitions during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 were not material individually or in the aggregate. As a result of certain acquisitions, our Automotive and Food Packaging segments allocated $47 million and $2 million , respectively, to goodwill during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . In addition, our Food Packaging segment allocated $25 million to definite-lived intangible assets amortized over a weighted average of 12 to 20 years. The purchase price allocations for the above acquisitions are not all final and are subject to change.
Impairment of Goodwill
We perform the annual goodwill impairment test for our Energy segment as of April 30 of each year, or more frequently if impairment indicators exist. During the first quarter of 2016, due to worsening sales trends for our Energy segment's petroleum reporting unit, we performed an interim goodwill impairment analysis. Based on this analysis, our Energy segment recognized a goodwill impairment charge of $574 million , which represented the full amount of the remaining goodwill allocated to the petroleum reporting unit as well as the Energy segment.

9 .
Debt .
Refer to Note 12 , " Segment Reporting ," for debt balances for each of our segments and our Holding Company. Except for those described below, there were no other significant changes to our consolidated debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to that reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 . Additionally, where applicable, we or our subsidiaries were in compliance with all covenants for their respective debt instruments as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 .
Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings
On January 18, 2017, we and a wholly owned subsidiary of ours, Icahn Enterprises Finance Corp. (collectively, the "Issuers"), issued $695 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.250% senior unsecured notes due 2022 and $500 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.750% senior unsecured notes due 2024 (collectively, the "New Notes"). The net proceeds from the sale of the New Notes were $1.190 billion , after deducting the initial purchaser’s discount and commission and estimated fees and expenses related to the offering. These proceeds were used to redeem all of the Issuer's outstanding senior unsecured notes due 2017, including accrued interest. Interest on the New Notes are payable on February 1 and August 1 of each year, commencing August 1, 2017. The Issuers issued the New Notes under an indenture dated January 18, 2017, among the Issuers, Icahn Enterprises Holdings (the "Guarantor"), and Wilmington Trust Company, as trustee. The indenture contains customary events of defaults and covenants relating to, among other things, the incurrence of debt, affiliate transactions, liens and restricted payments. Prior to maturity of the New Notes, the Issuers may redeem some or all of the notes at certain times by paying a premium as specified in the indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
The New Notes and the related guarantee are the senior unsecured obligations of the Issuers and rank equally with all of the Issuers’ and the Guarantor’s existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness and senior to all of the Issuers’ and the Guarantor’s existing and future subordinated indebtedness.  All of our senior unsecured notes and the related guarantees are effectively subordinated to the Issuers’ and the Guarantor’s existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the collateral securing such indebtedness. All of our senior unsecured notes and the related guarantees are also effectively subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities of the Issuers’ subsidiaries other than the Guarantor.
On March 22, 2017, the Issuers and the Guarantor filed a registration statement on Form S-4 with the SEC which offered to exchange the unregistered New Notes for registered, publicly tradable notes that have substantially identical terms as the New Notes. The registration statement on Form S-4 was declared effective by the SEC on April 27, 2017 and the exchange offer expired on May 24, 2017.
As of September 30, 2017 , based on covenants in the indentures governing our senior unsecured notes, we are not permitted to incur additional indebtedness.
Automotive
On March 30, 2017, Federal-Mogul issued €415 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.875% senior secured notes due 2022 and €300 million in aggregate principal amount of floating rate senior secured notes due 2024. Interest on the floating

rate notes will accrue at the three-month EURIBOR rate, with 0% floor, plus 4.875% per annum. These notes were issued without a discount and will rank equally in right of payment to all existing and future senior secured indebtedness of Federal-Mogul. Proceeds from the issuance of these notes were $776 million which were used to repay Federal-Mogul's tranche B term loan, including accrued interest, a portion of the outstanding balance on its revolving facility and fees and expenses related to the issuance of the notes.
On June 29, 2017, Federal-Mogul issued €350 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.000% senior secured notes due 2024. These notes were issued without a discount and will rank equally in right of payment to all existing and future senior secured indebtedness of Federal-Mogul. Proceeds from the issuance of these notes were $395 million which were used to repay a portion of Federal-Mogul's tranche C term loan, including accrued interest, and fees and expenses related to the issuance of the notes.
Federal-Mogul recognized an aggregate $4 million loss on the extinguishment of debt for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 for the write-off of prior debt issuance costs and original issue discounts related to the tranche B and tranche C term loans discussed above.

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.
Icahn Enterprises' condensed statements of operations by reporting segment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 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.

Income Taxes .
In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes , we analyze all positive and negative evidence and maintain a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets that are not considered more likely than not to be realized. Based on current analysis, including increased level of income and ability to use losses previously limited, we have determined that it is more likely than not that a significant portion of our U.S. tax loss carryforwards and credits will be realized and have released the valuation allowance on these deferred tax assets.
For the three months ended September 30, 2017 , we recorded an income tax expense of $68 million on pre-tax income of $897 million compared to an income tax expense of $15 million on pre-tax income of $253 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016 . Our effective income tax rate was 7.6% and 5.9% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively.
For the three months ended September 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 three months ended September 30, 2016 , the effective tax rate was lower than the statutory federal rate of 35% , primarily due to partnership income not subject to taxation, as such income is allocated to the partners.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , we recorded an income tax expense of $110 million on pre-tax income of approximately $2.5 billion compared to an income tax expense of $81 million on pre-tax loss of approximately $1.6 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 . Our effective income tax rate was 4.4% and (5.1)% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively.
For the nine months ended September 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.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 , the effective tax rate was lower than the statutory federal rate of 35% , primarily due to partnership losses for which there was no tax benefit, as such losses are allocated to the partners, and goodwill impairment not deductible for tax purposes.

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 $49 million and $50 million as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively, primarily within our Automotive, Energy and Metals segments and which are included in accrued expenses and other liabilities 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.
Automotive
Federal-Mogul is a defendant in lawsuits filed, or the recipient of administrative orders issued or demand letters received, in various jurisdictions pursuant to the Federal Comprehensive Environmental Response Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (“CERCLA”) or other similar national, provincial or state environmental remedial laws. These laws provide that responsible parties may be liable to pay for remediating contamination resulting from hazardous substances that were discharged into the environment by them, by prior owners or occupants of property they currently own or operate, or by others to whom they sent such substances for treatment or other disposition at third party locations. Federal-Mogul has been notified by the EPA, other national environmental agencies and various provincial and state agencies that it may be a potentially responsible party (“PRP”) under such laws for the cost of remediating hazardous substances pursuant to CERCLA and other national and state or provincial environmental laws. PRP designation often results in the funding of site investigations and subsequent remedial activities.
Many of the sites that are likely to be the costliest to remediate are often current or former commercial waste disposal facilities to which numerous companies sent wastes. Despite the potential joint and several liability which might be imposed on Federal-Mogul under CERCLA and some of the other laws pertaining to these sites, its share of the total waste sent to these sites has generally been small. Federal-Mogul believes its exposure for liability at these sites is limited.
Federal-Mogul has also identified certain other present and former properties at which it may be responsible for cleaning up or addressing environmental contamination, in some cases as a result of contractual commitments and/or federal or state environmental laws. Federal-Mogul is actively seeking to resolve these actual and potential statutory, regulatory and contractual obligations. Although difficult to quantify based on the complexity of the issues, Federal-Mogul has accrued amounts corresponding to its best estimate of the costs associated with such regulatory and contractual obligations on the basis of available information from site investigations and the professional judgment of consultants.
Our Automotive segment's total environmental liabilities, determined on an undiscounted basis, were $15 million and $16 million as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively. Federal-Mogul believes that recorded environmental liabilities will be adequate to cover its estimated liability for its exposure in respect to such matters. In the event that such


34

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

liabilities were to significantly exceed the amounts recorded by Federal-Mogul, our Automotive segment's results of operations could be materially affected. At September 30, 2017 , Federal-Mogul estimates reasonably possible material additional losses, above and beyond its best estimate of required remediation costs as recorded, to approximate $40 million .
Energy
The petroleum and nitrogen fertilizer businesses are subject to various stringent federal, state, and local Environmental Health and Safety ("EHS") rules and regulations. Liabilities related to EHS matters are recognized when the related costs are probable and can be reasonably estimated. Estimates of these costs are based upon currently available facts, existing technology, site-specific costs, and currently enacted laws and regulations. In reporting EHS liabilities, no offset is made for potential recoveries.
Except as otherwise described below, 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, 2016 . CVR Energy believes the petroleum and nitrogen fertilizer businesses are in material compliance with existing EHS rules and regulations. There can be no assurance that the EHS matters described or referenced herein or other EHS matters which may develop in the future will not have a material adverse effect on CVR Energy's business, financial condition or results of operations.
As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , our Energy segment had environmental accruals of $4 million and $5 million , respectively. CVR Energy's management periodically reviews and, as appropriate, revises its environmental accruals. Based on current information and regulatory requirements, CVR Energy's management believes that the accruals established for environmental expenditures are adequate.
Environmental expenditures are capitalized when such expenditures are expected to result in future economic benefits. Capital expenditures incurred for environmental compliance and efficiency of the operations were $5 million and $7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and $12 million and $13 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively.
Metals
PSC Metals has been designated as a PRP under U.S. federal and state superfund laws with respect to certain sites with which PSC Metals may have had a direct or indirect involvement. It is alleged that PSC Metals and its subsidiaries or their predecessors transported waste to the sites, disposed of waste at the sites or operated the sites in question.  In addition, one of PSC Metals' Knoxville locations was the subject of investigations by the State of Tennessee under the federal Superfund law. These investigations were performed by the State of Tennessee pursuant to a contract with the EPA. PSC Metals is exploring a potential settlement of the matter. Currently, PSC Metals cannot assess the impact of any cost or liability associated with these investigations at this location. With respect to all other matters in which PSC Metals has been designated as a PRP under U.S. federal and state superfund laws, PSC Metals has reviewed the nature and extent of the allegations, the number, connection and financial ability of other named and unnamed PRPs and the nature and estimated cost of the likely remedy. Based on reviewing the nature and extent of the allegations, PSC Metals has estimated its liability to remediate these other sites to be immaterial as of both September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 . If it is determined that PSC Metals has liability to remediate those sites and that more expensive remediation approaches are required in the future, PSC Metals could incur additional obligations, which could be material to its operations.
In November and December of 2011, PSC Metals received three notices of violation ("NOV") from the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (“MDNR”) for hazardous waste and water violations related to its Festus, Missouri location. PSC Metals has entered into a settlement with MDNR that resolves these NOVs.  Currently, PSC Metals believes that it has established adequate reserves for the cost of this settlement.  In addition, PSC Metals believes that it has a claim for indemnification against the prior owner of the facility associated with the above-referenced notices of violation. MDNR and PSC Metals, as part of the resolution of MDNR's NOVs, have undertaken sampling for lead at residences near PSC Metals' Festus yard. Approximately 67 residences were sampled and tested, and of those, approximately 15 tested above residential standards for lead contamination. PSC Metals has entered into a settlement agreement with MDNR which resolves MDNR’s claims and required limited soil remediation at the 15 residences. PSC Metals has complied with the terms of the settlement agreement and expects its obligations under the settlement agreement to terminate in the near future. PSC Metals believes that it has adequately reserved for the cost of compliance with the settlement agreement. Additionally, PSC Metals believes that liability for off-site contamination was retained by the prior owner of the Festus yard and accordingly, it would have a claim for indemnification against the prior owner.
Certain of PSC Metals' facilities are environmentally impaired in part as a result of operating practices at the sites prior to their acquisition by PSC Metals and as a result of PSC Metals' operations. PSC Metals has established procedures to


35

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

periodically evaluate these sites, giving consideration to the nature and extent of the contamination. PSC Metals has provided for the remediation of these sites based upon its management's judgment and prior experience. PSC Metals has estimated the liability to remediate these sites to be $28 million and $28 million at September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , respectively. PSC Metals believes, based on past experience, that the vast majority of these environmental liabilities and costs will be assessed and paid over an extended period of time. PSC Metals believes that it will be able to fund such costs in the ordinary course of business. Estimates of PSC Metals' liability for remediation of a particular site and the method and ultimate cost of remediation require a number of assumptions that are inherently difficult to make, and the ultimate outcome may be materially different from current estimates. Moreover, because PSC Metals has disposed of waste materials at numerous third-party disposal facilities, it is possible that PSC Metals will be identified as a PRP at additional sites. The impact of such future events cannot be estimated at the current time.
Renewable Fuel Standards
CVR Refining is subject to the Renewable Fuel Standard which requires refiners to either blend "renewable fuels" with their transportation fuels or purchase renewable fuel credits, known as renewable identification numbers (“RINs”), in lieu of blending, by March 31, 2018 or otherwise be subject to penalties.
On December 12, 2016, the United States Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") published in the Federal Register a final rule establishing the renewable fuel volume mandates for 2017, and the biomass-based diesel mandate for 2018. On July 21, 2017, the EPA published in the Federal Register its proposed rule establishing the renewable fuel volume mandates for 2018, and the biomass-based diesel mandate for 2019. The EPA is required by the Clean Air Act to publish the final rule for 2018 by November 30, 2017.
RINs expense was $64 million and $58 million for three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, and $164 million and $152 million for nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively. RINs expense includes the impact of recognizing the petroleum business' uncommitted biofuel blending obligation at fair value based on market prices at each reporting date. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the petroleum business' biofuel blending obligation was $185 million and $186 million , respectively, which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The petroleum business' uncommitted biofuel blending obligation recognized at fair value as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $127 million and $186 million , respectively.
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.
Automotive
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. Federal-Mogul does not currently believe the outcome of this litigation will have a material impact on its financial statements.
On September 29, 2016, September 30, 2016, October 12, 2016 and October 19, 2016, respectively, four putative class actions, captioned Skybo v. Ninivaggi et al. , C.A. No. 12790, Lemanchek v. Ninivaggi et al. , C.A. No. 12791, Raul v. Ninivaggi et al. , C.A. No. 12821 and Mercado v. Ninivaggi et al. , C.A. No. 12837, were filed in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware against the Board of Directors of Federal-Mogul (the "FM Board") and Icahn Enterprises, Icahn Enterprises Holdings, certain of their affiliates and Icahn Enterprises' Board of Directors (the "Icahn Defendants"), and, in the case of Raul , Federal-Mogul. The complaints allege that, among other things, the FM Board breached its fiduciary duties by approving the proposed Merger Agreement, that the Icahn Defendants breached their fiduciary duties to the minority stockholders of Federal-Mogul and/or aided and abetted the FM Board’s breaches of its fiduciary duties, as well as alleging certain material


36

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

misstatements and omissions in the Schedule 14D-9 filed by Federal-Mogul (the "Schedule 14D-9"). The complaints allege that, among other things, the then-Offer Price was inadequate and, together with that the Merger Agreement, was the result of a flawed and unfair sales process and conflicts of interest of the FM Board and the special committee of independent directors of Federal-Mogul (the "Special Committee"), alleging that the Special Committee and Federal-Mogul’s management lacked independence from the Icahn Defendants. In addition, the complaints allege that the Merger Agreement contains certain allegedly preclusive deal protection provisions, including a no-solicitation provision, an information rights provision and a matching rights provision. Among other things, the complaints sought to enjoin the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, as well as award costs and disbursements, including reasonable attorneys’ and experts’ fees.  The Raul and Mercado complaints further seek to rescind the transaction or award rescissory damages, or (in the case of Raul ) award a quasi-appraisal remedy in the event that the transaction was consummated, as well as award money damages.  On October 28, 2016, all four actions were consolidated under the caption In re Federal-Mogul Holdings, Inc. Stockholder Litigation , C.A. No. 12790-CB (the "Delaware Action"). On March 6, 2017, plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint that does not name Federal-Mogul as a defendant. Among other things, the consolidated amended complaint also adds allegations regarding the commencement and extension of the Offer, the increase in the Offer price, the closing of the transaction, Federal-Mogul's subsequent performance and public statements, Mr. Ninivaggi’s post-merger employment with Icahn Enterprises and the independence of the chairman of the Special Committee. The Icahn Defendants have moved to dismiss the amended complaint and discovery was stayed pending determination of that motion. In lieu of proceeding with the October 12, 2017 hearing on the Icahn Defendants' motion to dismiss, the plaintiffs in the Delaware Action dismissed the Delaware Action, with prejudice as to the named plaintiffs.
On October 5, 2016, a putative class action captioned Sanders v. Federal-Mogul Holdings Corporation et al. , C.A. No. 16-155387 was filed in the Circuit Court for Oakland County of the State of Michigan against Federal-Mogul, the FM Board and the Icahn Defendants (the "Michigan Action"). The complaint alleges, among other things, that the FM Board breached its fiduciary duties and that Federal-Mogul and the Icahn Defendants aided and abetted the FM Board’s breaches of its fiduciary duties, as well as alleging certain material misstatements and omissions in the Schedule 14D-9. The complaint alleges that, among other things, the then-Offer Price was unfair and the result of an unfair sales process that included conflicts of interest.  In addition, the complaint alleges that the Merger Agreement contains certain allegedly preclusive deal protection provisions, including a no-solicitation provision, an information rights provision and a matching rights provision. Among other things, the complaint sought to enjoin the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, or, in the event that the transactions were consummated, rescind the transactions or award rescissory damages, as well as award money damages and costs, including reasonable attorneys’ and experts’ fees. On March 6, 2017, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint which, among other things, dropped Federal-Mogul as a defendant.  The amended complaint also: named certain additional Icahn-affiliated individuals and entities as defendants; deleted various allegations relating to process and purported disclosure deficiencies; added allegations regarding the commencement and extension of the Offer, the increase in the Offer price, the closing of the transaction, Federal-Mogul's subsequent performance and public statements, Mr. Ninivaggi’s post-merger employment with Icahn Enterprises, and the independence of certain directors; and eliminated the request for injunctive relief given the consummation of the transaction.  On April 4, 2017, the Court entered a stipulated order staying the Michigan Action pending final determination of the Delaware Action. On October 16, 2017, the plaintiffs in the Michigan Action dismissed the Michigan Action, with prejudice as to the named plaintiffs.
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 FRA issued RWD No. 2016-01 [Revised] (the "Revised Directive"). The Revised Directive changes and supersedes the Original Directive in several ways.
The Revised Directive requires owners to identify their subject tank railcars and then from that population identify the 15% of subject tank railcars currently 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


37

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

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.
Although the Revised Directive addressed some of our Railcar segment's concerns and clarifies 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, extends 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.
It also provides that all other tank railcars subject to the Revised Directive must be inspected, tested, and if necessary repaired at the earlier of the next qualification, scheduled maintenance, shopping or repair event, or December 31, 2025. Additionally, the settlement agreement provides flexibility if the FRA imposes, or fails to impose, requirements on the other owners of the tank railcars subject to the Revised Directive, and it modifies and clarifies the inspection protocol. Finally, pursuant to the settlement agreement, our Railcar segment has dismissed its petition for review of the Revised Directive.
Our Railcar segment has evaluated its potential exposure related to the Revised Directive and has a loss contingency reserve remaining of $13 million , as of September 30, 2017 , to cover its probable and estimable liabilities with respect to our Railcar segment's response to the Revised Directive. The loss contingency amount takes into account information available as of September 30, 2017 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 condensed 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.
It is reasonably possible that a loss exists in excess of the amount accrued by our Railcar segment. However, the amount of potential costs and expenses expected to be incurred for compliance with the Revised Directive in excess of the loss contingency reserve of $13 million cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
Pension Obligations
Mr. Icahn, through certain affiliates, owns 100% of Icahn Enterprises GP and approximately 90.8% of Icahn Enterprises' outstanding depositary units as of September 30, 2017 . 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, we and 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%. Therefore, as a result of our ownership of more than 80% in certain of our subsidiaries, we and our subsidiaries are subject to the pension liabilities of all 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 September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 . If the plans were voluntarily terminated, they would be underfunded by approximately $452 million and $613 million as of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , 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, 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.

Subsequent Events .
Icahn Enterprises
On November 1, 2017 , the Board of Directors of the general partner of Icahn Enterprises declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $1.50 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 December 20, 2017 to depositary unit holders of record at the close of business on November 13, 2017 . Depositary unit holders have until December 8, 2017 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 December 15, 2017 . 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 holders that would only be eligible to receive a fraction of a depositary unit based on the above calculation will receive a cash payment.

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 September 30, 2017 (this "Report").
Overview
Icahn Enterprises L.P. ("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 it is necessary to an understanding of the businesses. References to "we," "our" or "us" herein include both Icahn Enterprises and Icahn Enterprises Holdings and their subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise requires.

Results of Operations
Our operating businesses comprise consolidated subsidiaries which operate in various industries and are managed on a decentralized basis. Results of operations for our operating businesses primarily consist of net sales of various products, services revenue, casino related 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. In addition to the summary below, refer to Note 12 , " Segment Reporting ," to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a reconciliation of each of our reporting segment's results of operations to our consolidated results.

Investment
We invest our proprietary capital through various private investment funds ("Investment Funds"). As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , we had investments with a fair market value of approximately $2.9 billion and $1.7 billion , respectively, in the Investment Funds. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the total fair market value of investments in the Investment Funds made by Mr. Icahn and his affiliates (excluding us) was approximately $4.6 billion and $3.7 billion , respectively.
Our Investment segment's results of operations are reflected in net income (loss) on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Our Investment segment's net income (loss) 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 the 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 September 30, 2017 .
For the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , our Investment Funds' returns were 5.1% and 6.5% , respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , such returns were 6.6% and (12.7)% , respectively. Our Investment Funds' returns represent a weighted-average composite of the average returns, net of expenses. The following table sets forth the performance attribution for the Investment Funds' returns.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
For the three months ended September 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 a consumer, non-cyclical sector investment, a consumer, cyclical sector investment and a basic materials sector investment aggregating $683 million. The aggregate performance of investments with gains across various other sectors accounted for the additional net positive performance of our Investment segment's long positions. Losses in short positions were attributable to the negative performance of broad market hedges of $498 million and the negative performance of various other short positions across multiple sectors. Losses in short positions were offset in part by the positive performance of a certain short position in the consumer, cyclical sector of $112 million.
For the three months ended September 30, 2016 , 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 energy sector investments, a financial sector investment, a consumer, cyclical sector investment and a consumer, non-cyclical sector investment aggregating $816 million and the positive performance of various other long positions across multiple sectors. Losses in short positions were attributable to the negative performance of broad market hedges of $555 million offset in part by the net performance of various other short positions.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
For the nine months ended September 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, a technology sector investment and a consumer, cyclical sector investment aggregating approximately $1.1 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, offset in part by the aggregate performance of investments with losses in the financial sector. Losses in short positions were attributable to the negative performance of broad market hedges of approximately $1.6 billion and the negative performance of various other short positions across multiple sectors. Losses in short positions were offset in part by the positive performance of short positions in the consumer, cyclical sector aggregating $735 million.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 , the Investment Funds' negative performance was driven by net losses in their short positions, offset in part by net gains in their long positions. 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. The positive performance of our Investment segment's long positions was driven by gains from a basic materials sector investment, a consumer, cyclical sector investment and two energy sector investments aggregating $826 million, offset in part by two technology sector investments with losses aggregating $394 million.

Automotive
Our Automotive segment's results of operations are generally driven by the manufacturing and distribution of automotive parts. Acquisitions in recent years within our Automotive segment, including our acquisition of The Pep Boys - Manny, Moe & Jack ("Pep Boys"), provided operating synergies, added new product lines, strengthened distribution channels and enhanced our Automotive segment's ability to better service its customers. Our Automotive segment's results of operations are affected by the relative strength of global vehicle production levels, global vehicle sales levels, automotive part replacement trends, geopolitical risk and foreign currencies, among other factors.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Net sales for our Automotive segment for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $147 million ( 6% ) as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase is primarily due to volume increases of $111 million, primarily organic sales volume increases and, to a lesser extent, sales volume increases from acquisitions, as well as $45 million due to a favorable effect of foreign currency exchange.
Cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $123 million ( 6% ) as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase is primarily due to volume increases of $47 million, $46 million from the unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange and $30 million from net performance and other.
Gross margin on net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $24 million ( 5% ) as compared to the comparable prior year period. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was flat at 19% for each of the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 . The favorable effects of higher sales volumes, net of changes in product mix, had a positive impact on gross margin as a percentage of net sales. However, this positive impact was offset by unfavorable effects of net performance and other.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Net sales for our Automotive segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $348 million ( 5% ) as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was due to volume increases of $409 million attributable to organic sales volume increases and acquisitions. Increases from acquisitions was impacted primarily from the inclusion of the results of Pep Boys for the full nine months in 2017 compared to eight months in the comparable prior year period. These sales volume increases were offset in part by the unfavorable effects of foreign currency exchange.
Cost of goods sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $248 million ( 4% ) as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase is primarily due to volume increases and product mix of $242 million and $12 million of additional costs from net performance, offset in part by $6 million primarily due to the favorable effect of foreign currency exchange.
Gross margin on net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $100 million ( 7% ) as compared to the comparable prior year period. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was flat at 19% for each of the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 . The inclusion of the results of Pep Boys, whose product sales margins are higher than those of Federal-Mogul's, as well as the favorable effects of higher sales volumes, net of changes in product mix, had a positive impact on gross margin as a percentage of net sales. However, this positive impact was offset by unfavorable effects of net performance, foreign currency exchange and other.

Energy
Our Energy segment is primarily engaged in the petroleum refining and nitrogen fertilizer manufacturing. The petroleum business accounted for approximately 94%, and 92% of our Energy segment's net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , 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 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 our results of operations is influenced by the rate at which the prices of refined products adjust to reflect these changes.
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 ("EPA"), 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 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 EPA regulations, 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.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Net sales for our Energy segment increased by $213 million ( 17% ) for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to our petroleum business as a result of significantly higher sales prices as well as higher sales volume. This increase was offset in part by our nitrogen fertilizer business primarily due to a decrease in sales prices for its products.
Cost of goods sold for our Energy segment increased by $161 million ( 13% ) for the three months ended September 30, 2017 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 and products purchased for resale. This increase was offset in part by our nitrogen fertilizer business which had a decrease in cost of material due to lower third-party costs.
Gross margin for our Energy segment increased by $52 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the comparable prior year period. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 7% and 4% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , respectively, with such 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 an increase in the sales price of gasoline and distillates, which was offset in part by unfavorable changes in the gasoline and distillate basis.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Net sales for our Energy segment increased by $966 million ( 28% ) for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to our petroleum business as a result of higher sales prices for gasoline and distillates, as well as higher sales volume. This increase was offset in part by our nitrogen fertilizer business primarily due to a decrease in sales prices for its products.


45

Cost of goods sold for our Energy segment increased by $894 million ( 27% ) for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to our petroleum business as a result of higher cost of consumed crude oil and other feedstock as well as higher volumes. This increase was offset in part by our nitrogen fertilizer business which had a decrease in cost of material due to lower third-party costs.
Gross margin for our Energy segment increased by $72 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the comparable prior year period. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 5% and 4% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 , 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 and a favorable change in gasoline basis.

Railcar
Our Railcar segment's results of operations are generally driven by the manufacturing and leasing of railcars. As discussed in Note 1 , " Description of Business ," to the condensed consolidated financial statements, we sold approximately 29,000 railcars on lease in connection with our previously announced ARL Initial Sale on June 1, 2017. For a period of three years after the closing of the ARL Initial Sale, and upon satisfaction of certain conditions, we have an option to sell, and SMBC Rail Services LLC has an option to buy, the 4,551 remaining railcars owned by a wholly owned subsidiary of ours, which continue to be included in our Railcar segment's results of operations. The majority of these remaining railcars were sold subsequent to September 30, 2017 .

Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Total manufacturing revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by $26 million ( 28% ) as compared to the comparable prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to fewer shipments to non-leasing customers and a decrease in average selling prices due to more competitive pricing for both hopper and tank railcars.
Gross margin from manufacturing operations for the three months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by $5 million as compared to the comparable prior year period. Gross margin from manufacturing operations as a percentage of manufacturing revenues decreased to 4% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 from 9% for the comparable prior year period. 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 three months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the comparable prior year period due to a decrease in leased railcars as a result of the closing of the ARL Initial Sale on June 1, 2017 as well as a decrease in weighted average lease rates. The lease fleet decreased to 17,122 railcars at September 30, 2017 from 45,481 railcars at September 30, 2016 .
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Total manufacturing revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by $131 million ( 42% ) as compared to the comparable prior year period.

The lease fleet decreased to 17,122 railcars at September 30, 2017 from 45,481 railcars at September 30, 2016 .

Gaming
Casino revenues are one of our Gaming segment's main performance indicators and account for a significant portion of its net revenues. In addition, casino revenues can vary because of table games hold percentage and differences in the odds for different table games. High end play may lead to greater fluctuations in table games hold percentage and, as a result, greater revenue fluctuation between reporting periods may occur.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Our consolidated gaming revenues decreased by $22 million ( 8% ) for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the comparable prior year period due to the closing of the Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort in October 2016, which accounted for a $38 million decrease in consolidated gaming revenues. Our existing gaming operations' revenues increased by $16 million over the comparable periods primarily due to an increase in casino revenues. The increase in casino revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the comparable prior year period was primarily due to increased casino revenues at Tropicana Atlantic City.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Our consolidated gaming revenues decreased by $55 million ( 7% ) for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the comparable prior year period due to the closing of the Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort in October 2016, which accounted for a $97 million decrease in consolidated gaming revenues. Our existing gaming operations' revenues increased by $42 million over the comparable periods primarily due to an increase in casino revenues. The increase in casino revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the comparable prior year period was primarily due to increased casino revenues at Tropicana Atlantic City.

Metals
The scrap metals business is highly cyclical and is substantially dependent upon the overall economic conditions in the U.S. 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 September 30, 2017 and 2016
Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $38 million ( 53% ) compared to the comparable prior year period primarily due to higher ferrous, non-ferrous and non-ferrous auto residue shipment volumes and higher average selling prices for most grades of metal. Non-ferrous shipment volumes increased primarily due to the capital investment in aluminum processing capabilities at one of our facilities made in late 2016, while higher pricing reflected higher terminal market prices in 2017 as compared to 2016. Ferrous selling prices increased due to higher market pricing as domestic mill production has 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.
Cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $27 million ( 35% ) compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily due to higher shipment volumes, as discussed above, and to increased material costs driven by higher market prices. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 5% for the three months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to a loss of 8% in the comparable prior year period. The margin percentage improvement was attributed to a continued focus on disciplined buying, higher pricing for non-ferrous auto residue, improved terminal market pricing, and by continued efforts to bring processing costs in line with volume and market pricing.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $109 million ( 53% ) compared to the comparable prior year period primarily due to higher ferrous, non-ferrous and non-ferrous auto residue shipment volumes and higher average selling prices for most grades of metal. Ferrous shipment volumes increased due to improved demand from domestic steel mills and improved flow of raw materials into the recycling yards driven by increased market pricing. Additionally, during 2017, a major new steel mill came on line which increased demand for scrap metal. Domestic mill production has 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 44% during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to the comparable prior year period primarily due to utilization of the capital investment in aluminum processing capabilities at one of our facilities made in late 2016, while higher pricing reflected higher terminal market prices in 2017 as compared to 2016.
Cost of goods sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $82 million ( 38% ) 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 5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 as compared to a loss of 5% in the comparable prior year period. The margin percentage improvement was driven by an increased material margin attributed to a continued focus on disciplined buying, higher pricing for non-ferrous auto residue, and by continued efforts to bring processing costs in line with volume and market pricing.
Mining
Our Mining segment's key performance driver has historically been from demand for raw materials from Chinese steelmakers. Since acquiring Ferrous Resources in 2015, our Mining segment has been concentrating on sales in its domestic market, Brazil.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased $3 million as compared to the comparable prior year period due to iron ore price increases. Cost of goods sold for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased $2 million as compared to the comparable prior year period due to volume increases.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased $27 million as compared to the comparable prior year period primarily due to iron ore price increases, offset in part by volume decreases. Cost of goods sold for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased $2 million as compared to the comparable prior year period.
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.

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 nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 were substantially derived from income from club and rental operations.
Home Fashion
Our Home Fashion segment is significantly influenced by the overall economic environment, including consumer spending, at the retail level, for home textile products. Many of the larger retailers are customers of WestPoint Home LLC ("WPH"). WPH has a stable manufacturing platform and is focused on continued improvement in its cost structure through the use of certain process improvement initiatives.
Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016

Other Consolidated Results of Operations
Gain On Disposition of Assets, Net
As discussed in Note 1 , " Description of Business ," to the condensed consolidated financial statements, on June 1, 2017, we closed on the ARL Initial Sale, resulting in a pretax gain on disposition of assets of approximately $1.5 billion recorded by our Railcar segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . In August 2017, our Real Estate segment sold a development property in Las Vegas Nevada for $600 million, resulting in a pretax gain on disposition of assets of $456 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 .
Selling, General and Administrative
Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Our consolidated selling, general and administrative for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $30 million ( 5% ) as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to our Automotive segment due to certain acquisitions and personnel costs associated with integration and increased customer services, offset in part by a decrease in our Gaming segment due to the closing and subsequent sale the Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort in October 2016 and a decrease in our Investment segment due to lower compensation expense.


49

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Our consolidated selling, general and administrative for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 increased by $147 million ( 8% ) as compared to the comparable prior year period. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase from our Automotive segment of $189 million primarily due to the inclusion of Pep Boys' results beginning in February 2016 and certain other acquisitions as well as personnel costs associated with integration and increased customer services. This increase was offset in part by a decrease in our Gaming segment due to the closing and subsequent sale the Trump Taj Mahal Casino Resort in October 2016 and a decrease in our Investment segment due to lower compensation expense.
Restructuring, Net
Our consolidated restructuring costs, net is primarily attributable to our Automotive segment and consists primarily of employee severance and termination benefits as well as facility closures and other costs. Our Automotive segment's restructuring activities are undertaken as necessary to execute management’s strategy and streamline operations, consolidate and take advantage of available capacity and resources, and ultimately achieve net cost reductions. Restructuring activities include efforts to integrate and rationalize businesses and to relocate manufacturing operations to best cost manufacturing locations. Restructuring, net decreased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 compared to the comparable prior year periods due to lower severance and other charges incurred.
Impairment
Refer to Note 5 , " Fair Value Measurements ," and Note 8 , " Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net ," for discussion of impairments of assets.
Interest Expense
Three Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Our consolidated interest expense during the three months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by $15 million ( 7% ) as compared the corresponding prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to lower interest expense from our Railcar segment due to the sale of ARL in the second quarter of 2017, as well as lower interest expense from our Investment segment attributable to a decrease in due to broker balances over the respective periods. These decreases were offset in part by higher interest expense from our Holding Company due to our senior unsecured notes refinancing in the first quarter of 2017, which is subject to a higher interest rate.
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 and 2016
Our consolidated interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 decreased by $17 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 Energy segment due to a certain debt offering during the second quarter of 2016, as well as higher interest expense from our Holding Company due to our senior unsecured notes refinancing in the first quarter of 2017, which is subject to a higher interest rate.
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 of 35%. Refer to Note 13 , " Income Taxes ," to the condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of income taxes.
In addition, in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes , we analyze all positive and negative evidence and maintain a valuation allowance on deferred tax assets that are not considered more likely than not to be realized. Based on current analysis, including increased level of income and ability to use losses previously limited, we have determined that it is more likely than not that a significant portion of our U.S. tax loss carryforwards and credits will be realized and have released the valuation allowance on these deferred tax assets.

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 September 30, 2017 , our Holding Company had cash and cash equivalents of $484 million and total debt of approximately $5.5 billion . During 2017, our Holding Company invested $1.0 billion in the Investment Funds, net of redemptions. As of September 30, 2017 , our Holding Company had investments in the Investment Funds with a total fair market value of approximately $2.9 billion . Subsequent to September 30, 2017 , our Holding Company invested an additional $300 million in the Investment Funds. 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.
Sale of ARL
On June 1, 2017, we closed on our previously announced sale of ARL (the "ARL Initial Sale") to SMBC Rail Services, LLC ("SMBC Rail"). After repaying, or assigning to SMBC Rail, applicable indebtedness of ARL, we received cash consideration of approximately $1.3 billion in connection with the ARL Initial Sale. For a period of three years after the closing of the ARL Initial Sale, and upon satisfaction of certain conditions, we have an option to sell, and SMBC Rail has an option to buy, 4,551 remaining railcars owned by a wholly owned subsidiary of ours. Subsequent to September 30, 2017 , we sold an additional 4,382 railcars to SMBC Rail for $522 million , resulting in a $154 million pretax gain on disposition of assets.

Refinancing of 3.50% Senior Unsecured Notes Due 2017
On January 18, 2017, we issued $695 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.250% senior notes due 2022 and $500 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.750% senior notes due 2024 resulting in proceeds of $1.190 billion , after deducting the initial purchaser’s discount and commission and estimated fees and expenses related to the offering.

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. The purposes of the rights offering were to (i) enhance Icahn Enterprises' depositary unit holder equity; (ii) endeavor to improve Icahn Enterprises' credit ratings; and (iii) raise equity capital to be used for general partnership purposes. Aggregate proceeds from the rights offering was $600 million .
Distributions on Depositary Units
On November 1, 2017 , the Board of Directors of the general partner of Icahn Enterprises declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $1.50 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 December 20, 2017 to depositary unit holders of record at the close of business on November 13, 2017 .
During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , we declared three quarterly distributions aggregating $4.50 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 90.8% of Icahn Enterprises' outstanding depositary units as of September 30, 2017 . In connection with these distributions, aggregate cash distributions to all depositary unitholders was $60 million.
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.
Purchase of Additional Interests in Consolidated Subsidiaries
During January 2017, we increased our ownership in Federal-Mogul from 82.0% to 100% through a tender offer for the remaining shares of Federal-Mogul common stock not already owned by us and a subsequent short form merger for an aggregate purchase price of $305 million .
During August 2017, we increased our ownership in Tropicana from 72.5% to 83.9% through a tender offer for additional shares of Tropicana common stock not already owned by us, for an aggregate purchase price of $95 million, excluding cash paid by Tropicana to repurchase shares in connection with the tender offer and in accordance with Tropicana's stock repurchase program, as discussed below.
Dividends and Distributions From Subsidiaries
Dividends and distributions are primarily received from our Energy, Railcar and Real Estate segments. See "Other Segment Liquidity" below for additional information with respect to our dividends and distributions received from subsidiaries.
Investment Segment Liquidity
During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , we invested $1.0 billion in the Investment Funds, net of redemptions, and affiliates of Mr. Icahn (excluding us and our subsidiaries) invested $600 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 September 30, 2017 , the Investment Funds' had a net short notional exposure of 77%. The Investment Funds' long exposure was 124% (118% long equity and 6% long credit and other) and its short exposure was 201% (182% short equity, 19% 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 September 30, 2017 .
Of the Investment Funds' 124% long exposure, 122% was comprised of the fair value of its long positions (with certain adjustments) and 2% was comprised of single name equity forward contracts and credit contracts. Of the Investment Funds' 201% short exposure, 17% was comprised of the fair value of our short positions and 184% 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 ( 122% long exposure) and our short positions that are not notionalized ( 17% 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


52

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 ( 184% 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 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.

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 may include various investment transactions, including acquisitions and dispositions of businesses, including proceeds from the ARL Initial Sale. 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 flow from financing activities. Our other operating segments' cash flows are driven by the activities and performance of each business, which is included in the discussion below. The following table summarizes consolidated cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2017 and cash flow information for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 for Icahn Enterprises' reporting segments and our Holding Company:

(1) Eliminations in the table above relate to our Holding Company's transactions with our Investment and other operating segments. Our Holding Company's transactions with our Investment and other operating segments are generally reported as cash flows from investing activities by our Holding Company and such transactions are generally reported as cash flows from financing activities by our Investment and other operating segments. During the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , our Holding Company had net investment of $1.0 billion in the Investment Funds offset in part by $215 million in net proceeds from our other operating segments. Additionally, our Holding Company repaid a loan to ARL for $120 million classified as financing activities by our Holding Company and investing activities by our Railcar segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 , our Holding Company had net proceeds from the Investment Funds and our other operating segments aggregating approximately $1.3 billion. Additionally, our Holding Company received loan proceeds from ARL of $125 million classified as financing activities by our Holding Company and investing activities by our Railcar segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 .
Operating Activities
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , net cash used in operating activities was primarily driven by our Investment segment and our Holding Company, offset in part by net cash provided by operating activities from our other operating segments, particularly from our Energy, Railcar, Automotive, and Gaming segments. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 , net cash provided by operating activities was primarily driven by our Investment and other operating segments, particularly from our Automotive, Railcar and Energy segments, offset in part by our Holding Company.
Our Investment segment's cash flows from operating activities for the comparable periods were attributable to its net investment transactions. Our Holding Company's cash flows from operating activities for the comparable periods were attributable to our semi-annual interest payments on our senior unsecured notes and certain operating expenses of the Holding Company. Our other operating segments' cash flows from operating activities for the comparable periods were primarily


55

attributable to earnings before non-cash charges. However, the decrease in net cash provided by operating activities from our other operating segments in 2017 compared to 2016 was primarily attributable to changes in operating assets and liabilities.
Investing Activities
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , our Holding Company had net cash provided by investing activities due to proceeds of approximately $1.3 billion from the ARL Initial Sale and aggregate proceeds from our other operating segments of $215 million. This was offset in part by net investments in the Investment Funds of $1.0 billion and payments to acquire additional outstanding common stock of Federal-Mogul and Tropicana aggregating $349 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 , our Holding Company had net cash provided by investing activities due to proceeds received from our Investment and other operating segments of approximately $1.3 billion, offset in part by our acquisition of Pep Boys for approximately $1.0 billion.
Our other operating segments had net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 primarily due to capital expenditures. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , capital expenditures at our Automotive segment of $333 million were primarily related to investing in new facilities, upgrading existing products, continuing new product launches and other infrastructure and equipment costs. Our Railcar segment's capital expenditures were $139 million, primarily for railcars for lease and our Gaming and Energy segments had capital expenditures of $83 million and $80 million, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 our Railcar segment had capital expenditures of $104 million, primarily for railcars for lease, and our Automotive and Energy segments had capital expenditures of $306 million and $106 million, respectively.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , our Railcar segment's net cash used in investing activities also reflects the cash held by ARL at disposition which, when netted with the proceeds from the ARL Initial Sale received by our Holding Company, resulted in net cash proceeds from the ARL Initial Sale in consolidation of approximately $1.2 billion, offset in part by cash received of $120 million from the Holding Company for the repayment of an intercompany loan. Additionally, our Automotive and Food Packaging segments had cash used in investing activities due to certain acquisitions aggregating $105 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 , our other operating segments had payments to acquire businesses of $94 million, including our Energy segments acquisition of CVR Nitrogen, LP. in 2016 for $64 million, net of cash acquired. In addition, our Railcar segment's net cash used in investing activities for or the nine months ended September 30, 2016 included a $125 million loan to our Holding Company.
Financing Activities
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , our Holding Company received proceeds from our rights offing of $612 million (which includes a contribution from our general partner in order to maintain its aggregate 1.99% general partner interest in us) and net proceeds from our senior unsecured debt refinancing of $15 million, offset in part by repayment of an intercompany loan due to ARL of $120 million and by cash distributions on our depositary units of $61 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 , our Holding Company received $125 million in proceeds from its intercompany loan from ARL which was offset in part by cash distributions to our depositary unitholders of $81 million.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 , our Investment segment had net cash provided by financing activities of $1.6 billion, which included our $1.0 billion investment in the Investment Funds as well as $600 million received from Mr. Icahn and his affiliates (excluding us). For the nine months ended September 30, 2016 , our Investment segment had net cash used in financing activities of $552 million due to distributions paid to our Holding Company of approximately $1.1 billion, offset in part by net contributions from Mr. Icahn and his affiliates (excluding us) of $498 million.
Our other operating segments had net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016 primarily due to net debt transactions as well as dividends and distributions to us and to non-controlling interests. Our other operating segments had net cash payments for debt of $237 million and $54 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Additionally, our Energy and Railcar segments had cash payments for dividends and distributions aggregating $210 million and $246 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, of which $172 million and $172 million, respectively, was paid to us.

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.

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements included in “Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” which are not historical in nature are intended to be, and are hereby identified as, “forward-looking statements” for purposes of the safe harbor provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or by Public Law 104-67.
Forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are based on assumptions and subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause 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, 2016 and those set forth in this Report.

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, 2016 .
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 September 30, 2017 , 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 $902 million, $126 million and $1.5 billion, respectively. However, as of September 30, 2017 , we estimate that


57

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 39% in the Investment Funds, and the non-controlling interests in income would correspondingly offset approximately 61% of the change in fair value.
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
Our predominant exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk is related to our Automotive segment and the sensitivities to movements in the foreign currency exchange rate between the Euro and U.S. Dollar.
Automotive
Federal-Mogul issued notes in the amount €1,065 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2017 . Federal-Mogul has designated €753 million of these notes as a net investment hedge in certain foreign subsidiaries and affiliates of Federal-Mogul. As such, an adverse change in foreign currency exchange rates will have no effect on earnings. For the portion of the debt not designated as a net investment hedge, Federal-Mogul has other natural hedges in place that will offset any adverse change in foreign currency exchange rates. A 10% adverse change in foreign currency exchange rates between the Euro and U.S. Dollar as of September 30, 2017 would increase the amount of cash required to settle the Euro Notes by approximately $126 million.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
As of September 30, 2017 , 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 SEC 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 September 30, 2017 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
