Cheniere Energy SEC Filings

Cheniere Energy Partners, L.P. (CQP) has filed an S-4 to register an exchange offer for up to $1,000,000,000 of 5.550% Senior Notes due 2035 in exchange for an equal principal amount of existing 5.500% Senior Notes due 2035 that were privately issued and are not registered. The new notes are the same debt as the old notes, but without transfer restrictions, registration rights or additional interest provisions.

CQP is a publicly traded LNG-focused partnership that owns the Sabine Pass LNG Terminal in Louisiana, with over 30 mtpa of liquefaction capacity as of September 30, 2025, plus related storage and pipeline assets. The partnership relies on long-term sale and purchase agreements and integrated production marketing arrangements to secure largely fixed-fee, long-duration cash flows.

As of September 30, 2025, CQP reported approximately $14.9 billion of total consolidated debt and notes that the new notes will rank equally with its other senior unsecured obligations and be structurally subordinated to about $7.1 billion of indebtedness at non-guarantor subsidiaries. Key risks highlighted include high leverage, refinancing needs, structural and secured debt subordination, the lack of a change-of-control put right, potential note redemptions at CQP’s option, tax-status risks if treated as a corporation, and limited trading liquidity because the new notes will not be listed on an exchange.

Cheniere Energy Partners (CQP) furnished an update on its business by announcing third-quarter results for the period ended September 30, 2025. The company disclosed that a press release detailing its results was issued on October 30, 2025 and included as Exhibit 99.1.

The information in the update, including Exhibit 99.1, was furnished and is not deemed filed under the Exchange Act, which affects how it may be incorporated by reference in future documents. CQP’s common units trade on the NYSE under the symbol CQP.

Cheniere Energy Partners (CQP) reported third‑quarter 2025 results. Total revenues were $2,404 million, up from $2,055 million a year ago, while net income was $506 million versus $635 million. Basic and diluted net income per common unit was $0.80, compared with $1.08.

Management cites higher Henry Hub pricing lifting LNG revenues, partly offset by lower production volumes due to planned maintenance and unfavorable derivative fair value changes flowing through cost of sales. For the nine months, revenues were $7,848 million and net income was $1,700 million.

Operating cash flow was $1,881 million for the nine months. The partnership declared a $0.830 cash distribution per common unit for the quarter, comprised of a base $0.775 and variable $0.055. As of October 24, 2025, 484,052,623 common units were outstanding. During 2025, CQP issued $1.0 billion of 5.550% Senior Notes due 2035 and redeemed $1.0 billion of SPL 5.875% notes due 2026. Contracted future consideration totaled $42.6 billion across LNG, affiliate LNG, and regasification.

Cheniere Energy Partners (CQP) declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.830 per common unit. The distribution is payable on November 14, 2025 to unitholders of record as of November 7, 2025. The Partnership also issued a press release announcing the distribution.

Richard Oliver G III, a director of Cheniere Energy Partners, L.P. (CQP), reported Section 16 transactions dated 09/07/2025. On that date portions of previously granted phantom unit awards vested: 750 phantom units vested from each of the 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024 grants (each grant originally 3,000 phantom units), and a new 3,000 phantom-unit grant payable in cash was issued. The filing shows multiple matched transactions: phantom units converted/recognized (code M) in 750-unit increments and corresponding disposals (code D) of 375 units at $53.98 in several lines. Each phantom unit is stated to be the economic equivalent of one common unit, and the phantom units vest 25% on each anniversary of the grant date.

James Robert Ball, a director of Cheniere Energy Partners, L.P. (CQP), reported a series of transactions on 09/07/2025 related to phantom units and common units. Multiple prior grants partially vested, producing vesting entries and cash/common-unit settlements. Following the reported activity, Mr. Ball beneficially owned 8,625 common-unit equivalents. Several disposals are reported at a price of $53.98 per unit for specified executed sales.
