Total assets reached $53.4 billionb at December 31, 2025. The company provided 2026 guidance of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA of $5.20 billion to $5.80 billion, including $1.15 billion to $1.25 billion in Q1 2026, which reflects impacts from Winter Storm Fern and margin compression. It expects 486 to 527 total cargos in 2026 across the Calcasieu and Plaquemines projects.
The company reaffirmed a targeted Plaquemines Phase I commercial operation date in Q4 2026 and a Phase II COD in mid-2027. Construction at CP2 Phase I is on track for first production in late 2027, and the company anticipates a final investment decision on CP2 Phase II in the first half of 2026.
The release also highlights new long-term contracts, including a 20-year LNG sales agreement with Hanwha Aerospace for 1.5 MTPA starting in 2030, and a five-year agreement with Trafigura for about 0.5 MTPA starting in 2026. The company notes that Q4 2025 net income was affected by non-cash unfavorable changes in interest rate swaps of $476 millionc for the quarter and $994 million for the full year, and that higher interest expense also weighed on results.

The guidance assumes a fixed liquefaction fee range of $5.00 to $6.00 per MMBtu for remaining unsold 2026 cargos, and each $1.00 per MMBtu change would affect Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA by $575 million to $625 million.

Q4 2025 net income of $1.1 billion was partly offset by lower LNG sales prices net of feed gas cost of $1.0 billion, mainly at Calcasieu, non-cash unfavorable changes in interest rate swaps of $476 million, and higher interest expense of $330 million.

On February 26, 2026, the company announced a 20-year LNG Sales and Purchase Agreement with Hanwha Aerospace for 1.5 MTPA starting in 2030.
