Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are, and may in the future be, involved as a party to various legal proceedings, which are incidental to the ordinary course of business. We regularly analyze current information and, as necessary, provide accruals for probable liabilities on the eventual disposition of these matters. Other than as discussed below, there have been no material changes to the legal proceedings disclosed in ourannual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality (“LDEQ”) Matter

We and another subsidiary of CQP are in discussions with the LDEQ to resolve alleged non-compliance with national emission standards for formaldehyde from combustion turbines at the Sabine Pass LNG Terminal. The allegations are identified in a Consolidated Compliance Order and Notice of Potential Penalty, Tracking No. AE-CN-22-00833 (the “2023 Compliance Order”) issued by the LDEQ on April 12, 2023. In August 2004, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the“EPA”) stayed the application of the emission standard to combustion turbines such as those at the Sabine Pass LNG Terminal. In March 2022, the EPA lifted the stay, and in June 2022, we and the other subsidiary of CQP petitioned the EPA and LDEQ for approval of additional operating parameters to demonstrate compliance with the emission limitation. The EPA approved the petition on July 31, 2025 and in October 2025 the LDEQ confirmed that all remaining milestones under the 2023 Compliance Order have been met. We and the other subsidiary of CQP continue to work with the LDEQ to resolve the 2023 Compliance Order. As of December 2024, we and the other subsidiary of CQP had filed test results with the LDEQ indicating that for the 2024 testing period all 44 turbines met the relevant compliance standard. As of September 2025, for the 2025 testing period, all 44 turbines met the relevant compliance standard. We do not expect that any ultimate penalty will have a material adverse impact on our financial results.
