Exothermic means heat is released while the catalytic cracking process requires heat.

Therefore it is not an exothermic reaction.

The term cracking is defined as the braking down of hydrocarbons into simpler form using thermal or catalyst.

Due to using catalyst for cracking it required less tempreture and pressure so obvious at less temp and pressure the it is not a exothermic.

Because the craking energy is already given to proceed the reaction, so there is no chance for the exhothermic process.

Cracking requires an energy for process completion.
