CVR Partners, LP announced the passing of independent director Brian A. Goebel, which has led to the company's Audit Committee falling out of compliance with NYSE listing standards. The committee now has only two independent members, short of the required three. While the company has initiated a search for a new independent director to regain compliance, this formal notice of non-compliance from the NYSE introduces a governance concern that investors will monitor closely. This follows recent financial results that showed strong performance but a reduced quarterly distribution.
