Carl Icahn is also not deterred by the recent onset of the market due to the new Trump-Zölle and has continued to take the shares of CVR Partners vigorously. He remains loyal to his strategy at the group.
• Icahn bought vigorously from CVR Partners
• Trade plan in force
• Icahn also strongly committed to parent company
Star investor Carl Icahn has again significantly increased his participation in the fertilizer producer CVR Partners. Since the first quarter of 2024, the 89 -year -old investor has been involved in the agricultural company – and has already noticed in the past through true series of stock purchases. In November after Donald Trump’s election victory, Icahn significantly expanded his participation for numerous days. Since then, he has also continuously increased his share in the company through numerous transactions – most recently between April 3 and 7, when the stock markets had gone on a downturn worldwide.
Icahn increases participation in CVR partners despite market uncertainty
As can be seen from a form submitted in the US stock exchange supervision, Icahn acquired a total of 12,434 CVR partner shares with $ 855,580 on April 3, 4 and 7, 2025. The purchases were made at courses between $ 66.65 and $ 74.98 and fell into a phase of increased market fluctuations, triggered by US President Trump newly introduced import tariffs. The CVR Partners share also got into the downward suction and approached the NYSE its 52-week low, which at that time was $ 62.94. The losses – and the associated possibility of getting the share in more favorable – could possibly have played a role in the size of the acquisitions, because Icahn’s previous three transactions – between March 28 and April 1 – did not even be half as big with a total of 5,490.
According to the second, Carl Icahn was already involved in CVR partners with more than ten percent, according to the recurrence, and thus an important major shareholder of the company. The current increase in its company shares was carried out as part of a so-called Rule 10B5-1 trade plan, which had already been decided on December 20, 2024 and would allow up to 320,000 regular shares. The amount and time of the purchases are based on “the conditions of the 10b5-1 trade plan, the market conditions, the unit price and other factors,” the corresponding document says. The trading platform expires with the execution of all buying orders, but at the latest on June 1, 2025.
That is why the activist investor could have liked the CVR share
Icahn is known to target companies in his investments and not only provide capital, but also to actively influence their strategic orientation. His commitment to CVR partners should therefore be part of a more comprehensive strategy that aims at long -term increase in value – both through operational improvements and through targeted market opportunities.
According to “Investing.com”, the CVR Partners share is currently considered to be undervalued, although the manufacturer of nitrogen fertilizer products recently presented solid business figures for the fourth quarter of 2024 in February. The profit per share was $ 1.73 over the expectations of the analysts, while sales remained with $ 139.56 million as part of the forecasts. The net profit was $ 18 million, the EBITDA was $ 50 million. Investors were able to look forward to a quarterly dividend of $ 1.75, for the whole year 2024 the distributions added up to $ 6.76 per share-this may also be one reason why Icahn accesses the paper. In addition, the group was confident about the future development as part of the balance sheet template and expected a strong demand for nitrogen fertilizers in the spring season.
Icahn also a majority owner at parent company CVR Energy
In addition to direct participation in CVR Partners, Carl Icahn also holds shares in the parent company CVR Energy. There he also increased there in the past few days and weeks after a public takeover offer for up to 17,753,322 parent shares of CVR Energy had only met with little encouragement at the turn of the year: instead of more than 17 million papers, only 878,000 CVR energy shares were specially used. Nevertheless, around 69 percent of all company shares were owned by Icahn at the beginning of April.
Since the holding company CVR Energy has around 37 percent of CVR partners’ regulars in a press release from Icahn Enterprises, Icahn is now checking a total of around 4.11 million CVR partners shares, or a share of around 40 percent in the agricultural company.
