Positive
  • Adjusted EBITDA increased 7% YoY to $852 million in Q3 2024
  • LNG export volumes grew 5% YoY to 377 TBtu
  • Number of cargoes increased 4% to 104 in Q3 2024
  • Strong liquidity position of $2.2 billion
Negative
  • Revenues declined 3% YoY to $2.1 billion in Q3 2024
  • Net income decreased 20% YoY to $635 million in Q3 2024
  • Nine-month revenues dropped 11% YoY to $6.2 billion
  • Nine-month net income fell 44% YoY to $1.9 billion

Insights

The Q3 2024 results show mixed performance for Cheniere Partners. While revenues decreased by 3% to $2.1 billion and net income dropped 20% to $635 million, Adjusted EBITDA improved by 7% to $852 million. The operational metrics remain strong with a 4% increase in LNG cargo shipments and a 5% rise in volumes.

The significant decline in net income is largely due to accounting treatment of derivative instruments, particularly the IPM agreements, rather than operational issues. The company maintains strong liquidity of $2.2 billion and continues its steady distribution policy with guidance of $3.15-$3.35 per unit for 2024. The expansion project progress and sustained operational performance indicate robust long-term fundamentals despite short-term earnings volatility.

The SPL Project's consistent operational performance, delivering 104 cargoes in Q3, demonstrates Cheniere Partners' strong market position in LNG exports. The development of the SPL Expansion Project, which could add up to 20 mtpa of production capacity, positions the company well for future growth in global LNG demand. The receipt of DOE authorization for FTA exports marks a important regulatory milestone.

The reduction in gross margins per MMBtu reflects current market conditions in global LNG pricing, but the company's long-term fixed-fee contracts provide stability. The total export volume of over 185 million tonnes across 2,700 cargoes establishes Cheniere as a reliable major player in the LNG market.

Net income decreased approximately $156 million and $1.5 billion during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, as compared to the corresponding 2023 periods. The decreases were primarily attributable to approximately $215 million and $1.6 billion of unfavorable variances related to changes in fair value of our derivative instruments (further described below) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, as compared to the corresponding 2023 periods.

Adjusted EBITDA1 increased by approximately $59 million and $108 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, as compared to the corresponding 2023 periods. The increases were primarily due to higher volumes delivered, and were partially offset by lower gross margins per MMBtu of liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) delivered compared to the prior periods.

A significant portion of the derivative gains are attributable to the recognition at fair value of our long-term Integrated Production Marketing (“IPM”) agreements, natural gas supply contracts with pricing indexed to international gas and LNG prices. Our IPM agreements are structured to provide stable margins on purchases of natural gas and sales of LNG over the life of the agreements and have a fixed fee component, similar to that of LNG sold under our long-term, fixed fee LNG sale and purchase agreements. However, the long-term duration and international price basis of our IPM agreements make them particularly susceptible to fluctuations in fair market value from period to period. In addition, accounting requirements prescribe recognition of these long-term gas supply agreements at fair value each reporting period on a mark-to-market basis, but do not currently permit mark-to-market recognition of the corresponding sale of LNG, resulting in a mismatch of accounting recognition for the purchase of natural gas and sale of LNG. As a result of continued moderation of international gas price volatility and changes in international forward commodity curves during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recognized approximately $32 million and $238 million, respectively, of non-cash favorable changes in fair value attributable to these IPM agreements, as compared to approximately $217 million and $1.5 billion of non-cash favorable changes in fair value in the corresponding 2023 periods.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recognized in income 377 and 1,166 TBtu of LNG loaded from the SPL Project (defined below).

Capital Resources

As of September 30, 2024, our total available liquidity was approximately $2.2 billion. We had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $331 million, restricted cash and cash equivalents of $80 million, $1.0 billion of available commitments under the Cheniere Partners Revolving Credit Facility, and $766 million of available commitments under the Sabine Pass Liquefaction, LLC (“SPL”) Revolving Credit Facility.

Recent Key Financial Transactions and Updates

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, SPL repaid $150 million in principal amount of its 5.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2025 with cash on hand.

SABINE PASS OVERVIEW

We own natural gas liquefaction facilities consisting of six liquefaction Trains, with a total production capacity of approximately 30 million tonnes per annum (“mtpa”) of LNG at the Sabine Pass LNG terminal in Cameron Parish, Louisiana (the “SPL Project”).

As of October 25, 2024, approximately 2,700 cumulative LNG cargoes totaling over 185 million tonnes of LNG have been produced, loaded, and exported from the SPL Project.

SPL Expansion Project

We are developing an expansion adjacent to the SPL Project with an expected total production capacity of up to approximately 20 mtpa of LNG (the “SPL Expansion Project”), inclusive of estimated debottlenecking opportunities. In February 2024, certain of our subsidiaries submitted an application to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission for authorization to site, construct and operate the SPL Expansion Project, as well as an application to the Department of Energy requesting authorization to export LNG to Free-Trade Agreement (“FTA”) and non-FTA countries, both of which applications exclude debottlenecking. In October 2024, we received authorization from the DOE to export LNG to FTA countries.

DISTRIBUTIONS TO UNITHOLDERS

In October 2024, we declared a cash distribution of $0.810 per common unit to unitholders of record as of November 4, 2024, comprised of a base amount equal to $0.775 ($3.10 annualized) and a variable amount equal to $0.035, which takes into consideration, among other things, amounts reserved for annual debt repayment and capital allocation goals, anticipated capital expenditures to be funded with cash, and cash reserves to provide for the proper conduct of the business. The common unit distribution and the related general partner distribution will be paid on November 14, 2024.

Change in fair value of commodity derivatives prior to contractual delivery or termination

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. 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 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.

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by taking net income before interest expense, net of capitalized interest, 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, and changes in the fair value of our commodity derivatives prior to contractual delivery or termination. The change in fair value of commodity derivatives is considered in determining 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.
