HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Cheniere Energy, Inc. ("Cheniere") (NYSE: LNG) today announced its financial results for the third quarter 2025.

**THIRD QUARTER 2025 SUMMARY FINANCIAL RESULTS**

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| *(in billions)* | **Three Months Ended September 30, 2025** | **Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025** |
| Revenues | $4.4 | $14.5 |

**2025 FULL YEAR FINANCIAL GUIDANCE**

|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| *(in billions)* | **2025 Previous** | **2025 Previous** | **2025 Revised** | **2025 Revised** |
| Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA<sup>2</sup> | $6.6 | $7.0 | $6.6 | $7.0 |
| Distributable Cash Flow<sup>2</sup> | $4.4 | $4.8 | $4.8 | $5.2 |

**RECENT HIGHLIGHTS**

• During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, Cheniere generated revenues of approximately $4.4 billion and $14.5 billion, net income<sup>1</sup> of approximately $1.0 billion and $3.0 billion, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA<sup>2</sup> of approximately $1.6 billion and $4.9 billion, and Distributable Cash Flow<sup>2</sup> of approximately $1.6 billion and $3.8 billion, respectively.

• Maintaining full year 2025 Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA<sup>2</sup> guidance of $6.6 billion - $7.0 billion and raising full year 2025 Distributable Cash Flow<sup>2</sup> guidance from $4.4 billion - $4.8 billion to $4.8 billion - $5.2 billion. 2025 Distributable Cash Flow guidance is increasing primarily due to the Internal Revenue Service issuing revised interim rules related to the Corporate Alternative Minimum Tax ("CAMT") in September that, among other things, deferred certain cash tax obligations and entitled us to a refund of previously paid CAMT.

• Pursuant to Cheniere's comprehensive capital allocation plan, Cheniere deployed approximately $1.8 billion and $4.4 billion towards accretive growth, balance sheet management and shareholder returns in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, Cheniere repurchased an aggregate of approximately 4.4 million and 7.4 million shares of common stock for approximately $1.0 billion and $1.7 billion, respectively, paid quarterly dividends of $0.500 and $1.500 per share of common stock, totaling approximately $109 million and $332 million, respectively, and repaid approximately $52 million and $352 million of consolidated long-term indebtedness, respectively.

*•* For third quarter 2025, Cheniere increased its quarterly dividend by over 10% from the prior quarter to $0.555 per share of common stock, which is payable on November 18, 2025.

• In October 2025, substantial completion of Train 3 of the CCL Stage 3 Project (defined below) was achieved. This follows the previously announced substantial completions of Trains 1 and 2 of the CCL Stage 3 Project in March and August 2025, respectively.

<sup>___________________________</sup>

<sup>1</sup> Net income as used herein refers to Net income attributable to Cheniere Energy, Inc. on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

<sup>2</sup> Non-GAAP financial measure. See "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures" for further details.

------

• In August 2025, Cheniere published *Together, We Deliver*, its sixth annual Corporate Responsibility report, which details Cheniere's vital role in meeting the world's need for reliable and secure energy and our commitment to our employees, communities, and other stakeholders.

*•* In August 2025, Cheniere announced the execution of a long-term liquefied natural gas ("LNG") sale and purchase agreement ("SPA") between Cheniere Marketing, LLC ("Cheniere Marketing") and JERA Co., Inc. ("JERA"), under which JERA has agreed to purchase approximately 1.0 million tonnes per annum ("mtpa") of LNG from Cheniere Marketing on a free-on-board basis from 2029 through 2050. The purchase price for LNG under the SPA is indexed to the Henry Hub price, plus a fixed liquefaction fee.

• In July 2025, certain subsidiaries of Cheniere initiated the pre-filing review process with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC") under the National Environmental Policy Act ("NEPA") for the CCL Stage 4 Expansion Project (defined below).

**CEO COMMENT**

"The third quarter of 2025 was another outstanding quarter for Cheniere across our business, as our team makes continued progress on the operation, construction and commissioning of the CCL Stage 3 Project, executes on our comprehensive capital allocation plan, and continues to solidify the commercial foundation for future accretive growth," said Jack Fusco, Cheniere's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Looking forward, we have completed our initial 2026 LNG production forecast, which benefits from additional new capacity from the CCL Stage 3 Project as we continue to bring capacity online on an accelerated schedule and on budget. We remain singularly focused on maintaining our track record of safety and operational excellence, while continuing to develop accretive expansions of our brownfield platform in order to reliably and economically meet the growing energy needs of our global customers over the coming decades."

Net income<sup>1</sup> increased approximately $156 million and $753 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding 2024 periods. The increases were primarily attributable to approximately $69 million and $665 million of favorable variances related to changes in fair value of our derivative instruments, including those impacts related to our long-term Integrated Production Marketing ("IPM") agreements (before tax and non-controlling interests) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding 2024 periods.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA<sup>2</sup> increased approximately $125 million and $318 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding 2024 periods. The increases were primarily due to higher total margins per MMBtu of LNG delivered, and higher volumes of LNG delivered in both periods, primarily as a result of the substantial completion of the initial trains of the CCL Stage 3 Project, as compared to the corresponding 2024 periods. The increases were partially offset primarily by lower contributions from certain portfolio optimization activities related to our charter vessel portfolio.

Share-based compensation expenses included in net income totaled $35 million and $140 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to $47 million and $139 million for the corresponding 2024 periods.

**Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

In addition to disclosing financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the accompanying news release contains non-GAAP financial measures. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Distributable Cash Flow are non-GAAP financial measures that we use to facilitate comparisons of operating performance across periods. These non-GAAP measures should be viewed as a supplement to and not a substitute for our U.S. GAAP measures of performance and the financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP and reconciliations from these results should be carefully evaluated.

Non-GAAP measures have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or in lieu of an analysis of our results as reported under GAAP and should be evaluated only on a supplementary basis.

**Forward-Looking Statements**

This press release contains certain statements that may include "forward-looking statements" within the meanings of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. All statements, other than statements of historical or present facts or conditions, included herein are "forward-looking statements." Included among "forward-looking statements" are, among other things, (i) statements regarding Cheniere's financial and operational guidance, business strategy, plans and objectives, including the development, construction and operation of liquefaction facilities, (ii) statements regarding regulatory authorization and approval expectations, (iii) statements expressing beliefs and expectations regarding the development of Cheniere's LNG terminal and pipeline businesses, including liquefaction facilities, (iv) statements regarding the business operations and prospects of third-parties, (v) statements regarding potential financing arrangements, (vi) statements regarding future discussions and entry into contracts, (vii) statements relating to Cheniere's capital deployment, including intent, ability, extent, and timing of capital expenditures, debt repayment, dividends, share repurchases and execution on the capital allocation plan, and (viii) statements relating to our goals, commitments and strategies in relation to environmental matters. Although Cheniere believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, they do involve assumptions, risks and uncertainties, and these expectations may prove to be incorrect. Cheniere's actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors, including those discussed in Cheniere's periodic reports that are filed with and available from the Securities and Exchange Commission. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release. Other than as required under the securities laws, Cheniere does not assume a duty to update these forward-looking statements.

(1) Change in fair value of commodity and FX derivatives prior to contractual delivery or termination

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used as a supplemental financial measure by our management and external users of our Consolidated Financial Statements to assess the financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structures, or historical cost basis. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flows from operations or net income as defined by U.S. GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

We believe Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA provides relevant and useful information to management, investors and other users of our financial information in evaluating the effectiveness of our operating performance in a manner that is consistent with management's evaluation of financial and operating performance.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by taking net income attributable to Cheniere before net income attributable to non-controlling interests, interest expense, net of capitalized interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and accretion expense, and adjusting for the effects of certain non-cash items, other non-operating income or expense items, and other items not otherwise predictive or indicative of ongoing operating performance, including the effects of modification or extinguishment of debt, impairment expense, gain or loss on disposal of assets, changes in the fair value of our commodity and FX derivatives prior to contractual delivery or termination, and non-cash compensation expense. The change in fair value of commodity and FX derivatives is considered in determining Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA given that the timing of recognizing gains and losses on these derivative contracts differs from the recognition of the related item economically hedged. We believe the exclusion of these items enables investors and other users of our financial information to assess our sequential and year-over-year performance and operating trends on a more comparable basis and is consistent with management's own evaluation of performance.

Note: Totals may not sum due to rounding.

(1) Our cash tax payments are subject to commodity and market volatility, regulatory changes and other factors which could significantly impact both the timing and amount of our future cash tax payments. Our 2025 full year Distributable Cash Flow guidance reflects current tax law and does not consider any prospective changes to local, domestic or international tax laws and regulations, or their interpretation and application. Our actual results could differ materially from our guidance due to such risks, uncertainties and other factors, including those set forth in Risk Factors or as disclosed under Operating Cash Flows in Sources and Uses of Cash within Liquidity and Capital Resources of the Cheniere Energy, Inc. Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2025, June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2025 and Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Distributable Cash Flow is defined as cash generated from the operations of Cheniere and its subsidiaries and adjusted for non-controlling interests. The Distributable Cash Flow of Cheniere's subsidiaries is calculated by taking the subsidiaries' EBITDA less interest expense, net of capitalized interest, taxes, maintenance capital expenditures and other non-operating income or expense items, and adjusting for the effect of certain non-cash items and other items not otherwise predictive or indicative of ongoing operating performance, including the effects of modification or extinguishment of debt, amortization of debt issue costs, premiums or discounts, impairment of equity method investment and deferred taxes. Cheniere's Distributable Cash Flow includes 100% of the Distributable Cash Flow of Cheniere's wholly-owned subsidiaries. For subsidiaries with non-controlling investors, our share of Distributable Cash Flow is calculated as the Distributable Cash Flow of the subsidiary reduced by the economic interest of the non-controlling investors as if 100% of the Distributable Cash Flow were distributed in order to reflect our ownership interests and our incentive distribution rights, if applicable. The Distributable Cash Flow attributable to non-controlling interests is calculated in the same method as Distributions to non-controlling interests as presented on our Consolidated Statements of Stockholders' Equity (Deficit) in our Forms 10-Q and Forms 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This amount may differ from the actual distributions paid to non-controlling investors by the subsidiary for a particular period.

We believe Distributable Cash Flow is a useful performance measure for management, investors and other users of our financial information to evaluate our performance and to measure and estimate the ability of our assets to generate cash earnings after servicing our debt, paying cash taxes and expending sustaining capital, that could be considered for deployment by our Board of Directors pursuant to our capital allocation plan, such as by way of

------

common stock dividends, stock repurchases, retirement of debt, or expansion capital expenditures<sup>1</sup>. Distributable Cash Flow is not intended to represent cash flows from operations or net income as defined by U.S. GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

<sup>1</sup> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Capital spending for our business consists primarily of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Maintenance capital expenditures.* These expenditures include costs which qualify for capitalization that are required to sustain property, plant and equipment reliability and safety and to address environmental or other regulatory requirements rather than to generate incremental distributable cash flow; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Expansion capital expenditures*. These expenditures are undertaken primarily to generate incremental distributable cash flow and include investment in accretive organic growth, acquisition or construction of additional complementary assets to grow our business, along with expenditures to enhance the productivity and efficiency of our existing facilities.
