Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following information describes our ability to generate and obtain adequate amounts of cash to meet our requirements in the short term and the long term. In the short term, we expect to meet our cash requirements using operating cash flows and available liquidity, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents and available commitments under our credit facilities. Additionally, we expect to meet our long term cash requirements by using operating cash flows and other future potential sources of liquidity, which may include debt and equity offerings by us or our subsidiaries.

The table below provides a summary of our available liquidity (in millions). Future material sources of liquidity are discussed below.

June 30, 2025
Cash and cash equivalents (1)$1,648
Restricted cash and cash equivalents (1)369
Available commitments under our credit facilities (2):
SPL Revolving Credit Facility785

CCH Credit Facility3,260
CCH Working Capital Facility1,390
Cheniere Revolving Credit Facility (3)1,250
Total available commitments under our credit facilities7,685
Total available liquidity$9,702

(1)Amounts presented include balances held by our consolidated variable interest entities (“VIEs”), as discussed in Note 6—Non-controlling Interests and Variable Interest Entities of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. As of June 30, 2025, assets of our VIEs, which are included in our Consolidated Balance Sheets, included $108 million of cash and cash equivalents and $40 million of restricted cash and cash equivalents.

(2)Available commitments represent total commitments less loans outstanding and letters of credit issued under each of our credit facilities as of June 30, 2025. See Note 8—Debt of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our credit facilities and other debt instruments.

(3)In August 2025, we entered into an amendment and restatement of the Cheniere Revolving Credit Facility. See Note 8—Debt of our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional details.

Our liquidity position subsequent to June 30, 2025 will be driven by future sources of liquidity and future cash requirements. For a discussion of our future sources and uses of liquidity, see the liquidity and capital resources disclosures in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in ourannual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

Although our sources and uses of cash are presented below from a consolidated standpoint, SPL, CQP, CCH and Cheniere operate with independent capital structures. Certain restrictions or requirements under debt and equity instruments executed by our subsidiaries limit the entity’s use of cash, including the following:

SPL and CCH are required to deposit all cash received into restricted cash and cash equivalents accounts under certain of their debt agreements. The usage or withdrawal of such cash is restricted to the payment of liabilities related to the Liquefaction Projects and other restricted payments. In addition, SPL and CCH’s operating costs are managed by our subsidiaries under affiliate agreements, which may require SPL and CCH to advance cash to the respective affiliates, however the cash remains restricted for operation and construction of the Liquefaction Projects;

CQP is required under its partnership agreement to distribute to unitholders all available cash on hand at the end of a quarter less the amount of any reserves established by its general partner. Beginning with the distribution paid in the second quarter of 2022, quarterly distributions by CQP are currently comprised of a base amount plus a variable amount equal to the remaining available cash per unit, 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 CQP’s business;

Our 48.6% limited partner interest, 100% general partner interest and incentive distribution rights in CQP limit our right to receive cash held by CQP to the amounts specified by the provisions of CQP’s partnership agreement; and

SPL and CCH are restricted by affirmative and negative covenants included in certain of their debt agreements in their ability to make certain payments, including distributions, unless specific requirements are satisfied.

Despite the restrictions noted above, we believe that sufficient flexibility exists within the Cheniere complex to enable each independent capital structure to meet its currently anticipated cash requirements. The sources of liquidity at SPL, CQP and

CCH primarily fund the cash requirements of the respective entity, and any remaining liquidity not subject to restriction, as supplemented by liquidity provided by Cheniere Marketing, is available to enable Cheniere to meet its cash requirements.

Corpus Christi LNG Terminal Expansion

In March 2025, substantial completion of the first of seven midscale Trains of the Corpus Christi Stage 3 Project was achieved. Additionally, first LNG was produced from the second Train of the Corpus Christi Stage 3 Project in June 2025, and substantial completion was achieved in August 2025. In June 2025, our Board made a positive FID with respect to the CCL Midscale Trains 8 & 9 Project and issued a full notice to proceed with construction to Bechtel under an EPC contract for a contract price of approximately $2.9 billion, subject to adjustment only by change order, and a guaranteed substantial completion date within the second half of 2028. The project completion and construction status for the CCL Midscale Trains 8 & 9 Project as of June 30, 2025 was not yet available. See Sources and Uses of Cash below for further discussion of the expenditures related to these projects.
