1 Net income (loss) as used herein refers to Net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
2 Non-GAAP financial measure. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures” for further details.





In June 2018, we reached a definitive agreement with Cheniere Energy Partners LP Holdings, LLC (“Cheniere Partners Holdings”) (NYSE American: CQH) under which we will acquire all of the publicly-held shares of Cheniere Partners Holdings not already owned by us in a stock for share transaction pursuant to which the Cheniere Partners Holdings’ shareholders will receive a fixed exchange ratio of 0.4750 shares of Cheniere common stock for each outstanding publicly-held share of Cheniere Partners Holdings. The transaction is expected to close by the end of third quarter 2018, subject to customary closing conditions. Upon consummation of the transaction, Cheniere Partners Holdings will merge with and into a wholly owned subsidiary of Cheniere.
In June 2018, Cheniere Corpus Christi Holdings, LLC (“Corpus Christi Holdings”) amended and restated its existing working capital facility to increase total commitments to $1.2 billion. The working capital facility is intended to be used for loans and the issuance of letters of credit for certain working capital requirements related to developing and placing into operation the CCL Project.
In May 2018, Corpus Christi Holdings amended and restated its existing credit facilities to increase total commitments under the credit facilities to $6.1 billion. The proceeds will be used to fund a portion of the costs of developing, constructing, and placing into service the three Trains and the related facilities of the CCL Project and the Corpus Christi Pipeline, as well as for related business purposes.

Houston, Texas - August 9, 2018 - Cheniere Energy, Inc. (“Cheniere”) (NYSE American: LNG) reported a net loss1 of $18 million, or $0.07 per share (basic and diluted), for the three months ended June 30, 2018, compared to a net loss of $285 million, or $1.23 per share (basic and diluted), for the comparable 2017 period. The decrease in net loss was primarily due to increased income from operations as a result of additional Trains in operation at the SPL Project, increased derivative gain, decreased loss on modification or extinguishment of debt, and decreased net income attributable to non-controlling interest, partially offset by increased interest expense, net of amounts capitalized.

Cheniere reported net income1 of $339 million, or $1.42 per share (basic) and $1.40 per share (diluted), for the six months ended June 30, 2018 compared to a net loss of $231 million, or $0.99 per share (basic and diluted), for the comparable 2017 period. The increase in net income was primarily due to increased income from operations as a result of additional Trains in operation at the SPL Project, increased derivative gain, and decreased loss on modification or extinguishment of debt, partially offset by increased interest expense, net of amounts capitalized.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA2 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 was $531 million and $1.4 billion, respectively, compared to $371 million and $854 million for the comparable 2017 periods. The increase in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to increased income from operations.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, 61 and 128 LNG cargoes, respectively, were exported from the SPL Project, none of which were commissioning cargoes. One cargo exported from the SPL Project and sold on a delivered basis was in transit as of June 30, 2018.





“Our results for the second quarter of 2018 reflect strong operational performance and continued robust and durable LNG market pricing,” said Jack Fusco, Cheniere’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “The second quarter was highlighted by the achievement of a positive FID on Train 3 at the CCL Project, which reinforces our position as the leader in U.S. LNG. We continue to see significant opportunities in the market today, and we are leveraging our world-class LNG platform to deliver on our growth plans.”

Summary of Financial Performance
Second Quarter 2018 Results
Our financial results are reported on a consolidated basis. Our ownership interest in Cheniere Energy Partners, L.P. (“Cheniere Partners”) (NYSE American: CQP) as of June 30, 2018 consisted of 100% ownership of the general partner of Cheniere Partners and 91.9% ownership interest in Cheniere Partners Holdings which owned a 48.6% limited partner interest in Cheniere Partners as of June 30, 2018.

Total revenues increased $302 million and $1.3 billion during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the respective 2017 periods. Total operating costs and expenses increased $240 million and $900 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the respective 2017 periods. The increases in revenues and total operating costs and expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, compared to the respective 2017 periods, were primarily driven by the timing of completion of Trains at the SPL Project and the length of each Train’s operations within the periods being compared.

Selling, general and administrative expense included share-based compensation expenses of $20 million and $38 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2018, respectively, compared to $13 million and $25 million for the comparable 2017 periods.

Net income attributable to non-controlling interest decreased $138 million and $13 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, primarily due to the non-recurrence of non-cash amortization of the beneficial conversion feature on Cheniere Partners’ Class B units that occurred during the comparable periods in 2017. Net income attributable to non-controlling interest during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 included approximately $294 million and $378 million due to amortization of the beneficial conversion feature on Cheniere Partners’ Class B units. Partially offsetting this decrease was a higher non-controlling percentage interest due to the conversion of Cheniere Partners’ Class B units to Cheniere Partners’ common units in August 2017, and an increase in income recognized by Cheniere Partners and Cheniere Partners Holdings.





Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2018, we had cash and cash equivalents of $874 million available to us. In addition, we had current and non-current restricted cash of $2.4 billion designated for the following purposes: $846 million for the SPL Project, $678 million for the CCL Project, $675 million for restricted purposes under the terms of Cheniere Partners’ credit facilities and $198 million for other restricted purposes.
Liquefaction Projects
SPL Project
Through Cheniere Partners, we are developing up to six natural gas liquefaction Trains at the Sabine Pass LNG terminal adjacent to the existing regasification facilities (the “SPL Project”). Each Train is expected to have a nominal production capacity, which is prior to adjusting for planned maintenance, production reliability, and potential overdesign, of approximately 4.5 mtpa of LNG and an adjusted nominal production capacity of approximately 4.3 to 4.6 mtpa of LNG. Trains 1 through 4 are operational, Train 5 is undergoing commissioning, and Train 6 is being commercialized and has all necessary regulatory approvals in place.
CCL Project
We are developing three Trains near Corpus Christi, Texas (the “CCL Project”). Each Train is expected to have a nominal production capacity, which is prior to adjusting for planned maintenance, production reliability, and potential overdesign, of approximately 4.5 mtpa of LNG. Train 1 is undergoing commissioning, and Trains 2 and 3 are under construction.
Corpus Christi Stage 3
We are developing up to seven midscale liquefaction Trains adjacent to the CCL Project (“Corpus Christi Stage 3”), each with an expected nominal production capacity, which is prior to adjusting for planned maintenance, production reliability, and potential overdesign, of approximately 1.4 mtpa of LNG. The total expected nominal production capacity of the seven midscale Trains is approximately 9.5 mtpa of LNG. In June 2018, we filed an application with FERC to site, construct, and operate Corpus Christi Stage 3.
Investor Conference Call and Webcast
We will host a conference call to discuss our financial and operating results for the second quarter of 2018 on Thursday, August 9, 2018, at 10 a.m. Eastern time / 9 a.m. Central time. A listen-only webcast of the call and an accompanying slide presentation may be accessed through our website at www.cheniere.com.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures

Regulation G Reconciliations

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.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) attributable to Cheniere before net income attributable to the non-controlling interest, interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for certain non-cash items, other non-operating income or expense items, and other items not otherwise predictive or indicative of ongoing operating performance, as detailed in the following reconciliation. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flows from operations or net income (loss) 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 business performance. We believe Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is widely used by investors to measure a company’s operating performance without regard to items such as interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization which vary substantially from company to company depending on capital structure, the method by which assets were acquired and depreciation policies. Further, the exclusion of certain non-cash items, other non-operating income or expense items, and items not otherwise predictive or indicative of ongoing operating performance enables comparability to prior period performance and trend analysis.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by taking net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders before net income attributable to non-controlling interest, interest expense, net of capitalized interest, changes in the fair value and settlement of our interest rate derivatives, taxes, depreciation and amortization, 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 and loss on disposal of assets, changes in the fair value of our commodity and foreign currency exchange (“FX”) derivatives and non-cash compensation expense. 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.

Distributable Cash Flow is defined as cash received, or expected to be received, from Cheniere’s ownership and interests in CQP, CQH and Corpus Christi Holdings, cash received (used) by Cheniere’s integrated marketing function (other than cash for capital expenditures) less interest, taxes and maintenance capital expenditures associated with Cheniere and not the underlying entities. Management uses this measure and believes it provides users of our financial statements a useful measure reflective of our business’s ability to generate cash earnings to supplement the comparable GAAP measure.

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 used for discretionary purposes such as common stock dividends, stock repurchases, retirement of debt, or expansion capital expenditures. Management uses this measure and believes it provides users of our financial statements a useful measure reflective of our business’s ability to generate cash earnings to supplement the comparable GAAP measure. Distributable Cash Flow is not intended to represent cash flows from operations or net income (loss) as defined by U.S. GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

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.
