Houston – October 30, 2025
Cheniere Energy, Inc. (“Cheniere”) (NYSE: LNG) today announced its financial results for the third quarter 2025.
• During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, Cheniere generated revenues of approximately $4.4 billion and $14.5 billion, net income1 of approximately $1.0 billion and $3.0 billion, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA2 of approximately $1.6 billion and $4.9 billion, and Distributable Cash Flow2 of approximately $1.6 billion and $3.8 billion, respectively.
• Maintaining full year 2025 Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA2 guidance of $6.6 billion – $7.0 billion and raising full year 2025 Distributable Cash Flow2 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.

• 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.
• 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).
“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.”
