New Fortress Energy Inc. (NFE) reported that its Board of Directors appointed Frederick Hundt, previously Chief Accounting Officer, as interim Chief Financial Officer on September 3, 2026 while a search is conducted for a permanent CFO, considering both internal and external candidates.
Hundt, age 49, joined the company in June 2025 as Global Controller and became Chief Accounting Officer on July 1, 2026. He will serve as both principal financial officer and principal accounting officer for Securities Exchange Act purposes and has over 25 years of accounting, financial reporting, audit and public company experience.
New Fortress Energy Inc. (NFE) disclosed that its Chief Financial Officer, Christopher S. Guinta, has notified the company that he will resign from his role, effective August 21, 2026.

New Fortress Energy Inc., through its subsidiary NFE Brazil Financing Limited, issued $973.5 million of 12.000% senior secured notes due November 15, 2029. The notes pay interest in kind semiannually beginning November 15, 2026 and are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by NFE Brazil’s current and future subsidiaries.
A Turnover Agreement requires that payments on the notes be matched by corresponding payments to the Company on intercompany obligations tied to approximately $425 million. NFE Brazil intends to use the proceeds to refinance about $477 million of existing debt and to fund operations, capital expenditures, working capital, letters of credit, restructuring costs, and intercompany trade payables.
New Fortress Energy Inc. reported that stockholders approved a package of restructuring-related measures at the 2026 annual meeting. Investors backed amendments to the charter supporting the company’s “Restructuring Transaction,” including a 1-for-50 reverse split of Class A common stock and authorization for potential issuance of more than 20% of existing Class A shares in connection with the restructuring. Stockholders also adopted an Amended and Restated 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan that fixes the equity pool at 10% of Class A shares outstanding as of the restructuring effective date and adds a Series A mandatorily convertible preferred stock reserve equal to 7% of that series’ authorized shares. Governance changes include declassifying the board, moving to majority voting for directors, raising the minimum board size to three, removing Class B stock references, and adding officer exculpation consistent with Delaware law.
New Fortress Energy Inc. is changing its top accounting leadership. Chief Accounting Officer Michael Lowe will resign effective July 1, 2026, after serving the company since 2019 and helping guide a complex restructuring that is nearing completion.
On the same date, Frederick (“Fred”) Hundt, currently Global Controller, will become Chief Accounting Officer. Hundt, age 48, brings over 25 years of accounting, financial reporting, audit, and public company experience from roles at GXO Logistics, Mastercard, and PwC.
New Fortress Energy Inc. announced a key step in its consensual UK Restructuring Plan, with the UK High Court granting its plan companies permission to convene creditor meetings. This allows creditors to formally consider and potentially approve the restructuring proposal.
Plan creditors must submit voting instructions by 10:00 p.m. (London) / 5:00 p.m. (New York) on June 9, 2026, ahead of hybrid physical and virtual plan meetings on June 15, 2026 in London. A court Sanction Hearing is scheduled for June 18, 2026, and, if sanctioned and other customary conditions and regulatory approvals are met, the plan is expected to be implemented by the third quarter of 2026.
New Fortress Energy Inc. reported that its subsidiary NFE Brazil Financing Limited has received commitments for a proposed Offering of $885 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due 2029. The Notes will bear interest at 12.00% per annum, payable in kind semi-annually, and mature three years from the issue date.
NFE Brazil plans to use the net proceeds for approximately $368 million of operating and capital needs, about $52 million to refinance an existing bridge term loan, around $420 million to refinance Brazil Financing Notes, and roughly $45 million for cash reserves tied to a UK restructuring process.
The Notes will be secured by first-priority liens similar to existing Brazil financing, carry no call protection or financial covenants, and may later be converted or exchanged into debt and/or equity of the Brazil business with specified approvals. The Offering is being pursued alongside a broader recapitalization under a UK restructuring plan in which NFE’s Brazil operations are expected to be separated and owned by a consortium of institutional investors, with closing targeted by the third quarter of 2026.
New Fortress Energy Inc. received a notice from Nasdaq that its Class A common stock no longer meets the exchange’s minimum bid price requirement. The closing bid has stayed below $1.00 per share for 30 consecutive trading days, triggering a deficiency under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1).
The stock remains listed for now, and the company has 180 calendar days, until October 28, 2026, to regain compliance by maintaining a closing bid of at least $1.00 for 10 consecutive trading days while meeting other listing standards. The company plans to monitor its share price and seek stockholder approval for a reverse stock split to help restore compliance, but there is no assurance these efforts will succeed, and the shares could ultimately face delisting.
New Fortress Energy Inc. disclosed that its indirect subsidiary NFE Brazil Holdings Limited entered into a senior secured, multiple draw term loan facility of $50,000,000 under a Brazil Bridge Credit Agreement. The loan bears 10% paid-in-kind interest and is secured by substantially all assets of NFE Brazil, including its equity in Hygo Energy Transition Ltd.
The Brazil Bridge Term Loan Facility matures on the earlier of several events, including refinancing of NFE Brazil Financing Limited’s 15% senior secured notes due 2029, milestones under a Restructuring Support Agreement, or a stated maturity of September 15, 2026, which may be extended to December 14, 2026 or December 31, 2026 under certain conditions. NFE Brazil may prepay without penalty and must prepay upon events such as change of control or certain new indebtedness.
The company also amended its Restructuring Support Agreement dated March 17, 2026 and a Letter of Credit Facility Forbearance Agreement dated March 27, 2026. These amendments obtain creditor consents for NFE Brazil’s new indebtedness, related liens, and use of proceeds for general corporate and operational purposes, including partial repayment of liquefied natural gas payables at CoreCo.
New Fortress Energy Inc. completed a turbine sale-leaseback transaction to raise cash and refinance debt. On April 1, 2026, a subsidiary sold certain turbine equipment to Macquarie Energy LLC for $265,882,500.00 and simultaneously entered into a long-term lease for the same assets.
Another subsidiary will lease the turbines back from Macquarie under a Master Lease Agreement with a 10-year term expected to begin on July 1, 2026, while the parent company provided guarantees of both the purchase and lease obligations. The company applied the net proceeds from the transaction to repay existing indebtedness, shifting from secured ownership financing toward a lease-based obligation.
New Fortress Energy Inc. entered into a forbearance agreement on March 27, 2026 with lenders under its Letter of Credit and Reimbursement Agreement. The lenders agreed to temporarily refrain from enforcing remedies tied to certain specified defaults until the LCF Forbearance Agreement terminates, currently scheduled for September 15, 2026 unless ended earlier. If no further forbearance is reached at that time, lenders could require the company to cash collateralize the outstanding principal balance of loans and other amounts under the letter of credit facility. The forbearance terms include consents, covenants and termination rights that align with a Restructuring Support Agreement signed on March 17, 2026 to facilitate recapitalization of the company’s indebtedness.
New Fortress Energy Inc. updated its capital structure and credit arrangements. The company entered into a Fourteenth Amendment to its Letter of Credit and Reimbursement Agreement, extending the facility’s maturity date to September 15, 2026 and waiving certain existing events of default during a specified period, subject to stated conditions.
The company also filed a Certificate of Elimination for its 4.8% Series A and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, formally returning these series to authorized but unissued status. All Series A shares had been exchanged into 96,746 Series B shares on October 1, 2024, and all Series B shares were redeemed on August 1, 2025, so no preferred shares remained outstanding before the elimination.
New Fortress Energy announced that its past audited and unaudited financial statements for 2023, 2024 and all interim 2024–2025 periods should no longer be relied upon. The company found errors in its historical cash flow statements and an error in interest capitalization, and will restate these items in its 2025 annual report. The restatement will reclassify certain delayed vendor payments from investing to financing cash flows and adjust other smaller items. Management expects to identify additional material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, although it states the adjustments did not result from any override of controls or misconduct.
Separately, New Fortress Energy entered into a restructuring support agreement covering its principal funded debt. Cleansing materials released under confidentiality agreements outline liquidity forecasts, a planned split between CoreCo and BrazilCo, significant funded debt reductions for CoreCo, and detailed projections for LNG production, power projects in Brazil, and future adjusted EBITDA and free cash flow. These projections are described as non‑GAAP, highly uncertain and intended only for counterparties evaluating the restructuring.
New Fortress Energy Inc. is launching a major balance-sheet restructuring and business split under a UK Restructuring Plan. The company entered a restructuring support agreement with creditor groups holding most of its ~$5.7 billion funded debt. That debt will be exchanged into a mix of new senior secured term loans, up to $2.5 billion of convertible preferred stock and NFE common equity representing 65% of the company at closing.
The plan separates NFE into two independent companies: privately held “BrazilCo,” owning Brazilian terminals and power plants, and publicly traded “New NFE,” holding the remaining LNG-to-power assets. Corporate debt at “New NFE” is targeted to fall to about $527.5 million, while existing shareholders will be diluted to 35% of common equity at closing, with potential further dilution because the preferred stock mandatorily converts after three years into 87% of fully diluted common if not redeemed.
The transaction will be implemented through UK court-sanctioned plans and chapter 15 recognition in the U.S., and is conditioned on court orders, regulatory consents and stockholder approval of charter amendments, increased authorized shares, a potential reverse split and Nasdaq-related share issuance approvals. If the deal cannot be completed, NFE warns it may need additional restructuring measures, including possible in-court processes in the UK or U.S.
New Fortress Energy Inc. extended a key debt forbearance and amended its letter of credit facility. Holders of more than 70% of the Company’s 12.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 agreed to extend their forbearance on enforcing remedies related to a missed semiannual interest payment that was due on November 17, 2025, pushing the forbearance end date from December 15, 2025 to January 9, 2026. The Company plans to use this period to continue negotiations toward a restructuring with its stakeholders. Separately, on December 12, 2025, the Company entered into a Twelfth Amendment to its Letter of Credit and Reimbursement Agreement, canceling an automatic reduction of commitments that was scheduled for December 22, 2025, so total commitments under that facility remain approximately $195 million.
New Fortress Energy Inc. (NFE) entered into an Eleventh Amendment to its Letter of Credit and Reimbursement Agreement, extending the facility’s maturity to March 31, 2026 and granting a covenant holiday for the consolidated first lien debt ratio and fixed charge coverage ratio for the quarters ended September 30, 2025 and ending December 31, 2025. The amendment also removes the minimum liquidity requirement.
In exchange, the Company loses certain flexibility to pay dividends and other distributions and faces new restrictions on paying principal or interest on specified indebtedness, including the November 17, 2025 interest payment under its New 2029 Notes Indenture. The amendment ties a default under the credit facility to NFE Financing’s continued compliance with a Forbearance and Waiver Agreement on the New 2029 Notes; a breach could trigger cash collateralization of letters of credit, acceleration of substantially all outstanding indebtedness, and the need for additional restructuring initiatives that could materially and adversely affect stockholders.
New Fortress Energy Inc. (NFE) disclosed that on August 19, 2025 Nasdaq's Listing Qualifications Department notified the company it is not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) because the company has not filed its periodic report for the period ended June 30, 2025. The notice gives 60% (sixty calendar days) to submit a plan to regain compliance and, if accepted, Nasdaq may grant up to February 16, 2026 to file the report and regain compliance. The notice has no immediate effect on listing or trading, but failure to regain compliance could lead to delisting of the Class A common stock. The company states it is working to finalize and file the late periodic financial reports as soon as possible.
New Fortress Energy, Inc. reported a Ninth Amendment to a credit facility that converts the facility from uncommitted to committed and extends the maturity to November 14, 2025. The amendment adds an asset sale sweep prepayment mechanism, adjusts fees and pricing, and reduces commitments to approximately $195,000, with an automatic reduction on October 5, 2025 to approximately $155,000. The filing states this change creates a direct financial obligation and cross-references Item 1.01 for additional details. The disclosure is focused on the loan amendment terms rather than operating results.
New Fortress Energy (NASDAQ:NFE) filed an 8-K reporting the results of its 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on June 18, 2025. Shareholders elected three Class III directors: Desmond Iain Catterall, Wesley R. Edens, and Randal A. Nardone, each to serve until the 2028 Annual Meeting. The election results showed strong support, with each director receiving over 194 million votes in favor.
Additionally, stockholders ratified the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the company's independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2025, with overwhelming approval of 244,403,944 votes in favor (99.7% approval rate).
New Fortress Energy Inc. (NASDAQ: NFE) filed a Form 8-K to furnish its unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows and accompanying management discussion for the three months ended March 31, 2025 (Exhibit 99.1). The disclosure is designed to keep the company in compliance with quarterly reporting covenants embedded in its bond indentures and credit facilities, which require delivery of financial statements within the non-accelerated-filer deadline plus a cure period.
The company missed the original Form 10-Q filing deadline and the additional grace period allowed under Rule 12b-25, as noted in its May 13, 2025 late-filing notice. Management states that the delay is procedural and that it does not expect any changes to previously released financial results. NFE now expects to file the complete Form 10-Q on or before June 27, 2025.
Because the financials are unaudited and unreviewed, the company includes a cautionary note highlighting potential adjustments and reiterates that the 8-K should not be considered “filed” for liability purposes. All forward-looking statements—particularly regarding the timing of the 10-Q—remain subject to customary risk factors and no duty to update.
Investor takeaway: The 8-K averts an imminent covenant breach by supplying interim information, but the filing delay introduces short-term disclosure risk until the full 10-Q is submitted. No new operating metrics, earnings figures, or segment data were provided beyond the cash-flow statement embedded in Exhibit 99.1.
