Current report
In March 2026, in connection with the conflict in the Middle East, we received a force majeure notice from QatarEnergy under our long-term LNG purchase agreement. We issued a corresponding force majeure notice to Petrobangla under our long-term LNG supply agreement. We currently cannot predict the timing of resumption of performance under these contracts.
Current report
In May 2026, we executed a nine-month time charter party agreement with Jordan’s National Electric Power Company, NEPCO, to deploy the Excelerate Acadia to the country’s existing LNG terminal in Aqaba. The Excelerate Acadia is expected to commence operations in mid-2026. The interim deployment enhances Jordan’s energy security by providing additional regasification capacity and generates incremental earnings for us while we continue to advance the Iraq integrated import terminal.
Current report
During the first quarter of 2026, global LNG markets were materially impacted by the armed conflicts in the Middle East, which disrupted supply availability and drove significant price volatility. The conflicts resulted in the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz and damage to LNG infrastructure in the Middle East, constraining exports from the region and tightening near‑term market balances.
Current report
These disruptions led to sharp increases in spot LNG prices during the quarter, particularly in Asia. Elevated prices, increased shipping and insurance costs and logistical challenges contributed to volatile trading conditions and prompted demand curtailment in certain price sensitive markets. As a result, LNG market dynamics during the quarter were driven less by underlying demand fundamentals and more by geopolitical risk, security of supply considerations, and the reallocation of limited LNG volumes across regions.
Current report
Natural gas and LNG prices increased across European and Asian markets during the first quarter of 2026 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2025. Dutch Title Transfer Facility (“TTF”) and Japan Korea Marker (“JKM”) reported average first quarter prices of $13.69 per million British thermal units (“MMBtu”) and $13.25 per MMBtu, respectively, compared to $10.20 per MMBtu and $10.29 per MMBtu, respectively, in the fourth quarter of 2025. Separately, average Henry Hub futures settlement prices increased from $3.55 per MMBtu in the fourth quarter of 2025 to $5.04 per MMBtu in the first quarter of 2026.
Current report
Global LNG trade during the first quarter of 2026 decreased to 116 million tonnes (“MT”), compared to 119 MT in the fourth quarter of 2025. Approximately 20% of the world’s LNG trade flows through the Strait of Hormuz. The closure of this critical passage resulted a major disruption in global LNG trade. The disruption of flows impacted LNG export volumes, which fell to 35 MT in March 2026 as compared to 39 MT in March 2025. As a result of the decreased volumes, TTF and JKM traded at peaks of $24.99 per MMBtu and $22.35 per MMBtu, respectively, during the first quarter of 2026.
Current report
Overall, the Middle East conflict has placed significant constraints on the near-term LNG market, limiting supply flexibility and heightening price volatility as buyers prioritize security of supply. Over the longer term, however, the global LNG outlook remains constructive, with approximately 200 MT of incremental LNG supply expected to come online by 2030. As these new volumes are delivered, they are expected to improve market liquidity, enhance diversification of supply, and alleviate structural tightness, helping to rebalance global LNG markets over time.
Current report
LNG, gas and power sales agreements ($23.2 million) and additional short-term LNG, gas and power sales opportunities ($2.1 million), partially offset by a seasonal maintenance project ($4.1 million).
Current report
LNG, gas and power revenues were $275.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, an increase of $108.5 million, as compared to $166.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to the Acquisition.

Cost of LNG, gas and power was $243.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, an increase of $82.2 million, as compared to $160.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to the Acquisition.
Current report
In December 2025, our board of directors approved a share repurchase program (the “Share Repurchase Program”) to purchase up to $75.0 million of our Class A Common Stock, par value $0.001 (“Class A Common Stock”). The Share Repurchase Program does not obligate us to acquire any specific number of shares, has no expiration date, and may be suspended, extended, modified or discontinued at any time at the discretion of the board of directors. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we repurchased 147,699 shares of our outstanding Class A Common Stock at a weighted average price of $34.07 per share, for a total net cost, including commission fees and taxes, of approximately $5.0 million.

Acquisition
Previous report
In May 2025, we closed the acquisition of 100% of the interests in New Fortress Energy Inc.’s business in Jamaica for approximately $1.055 billion in cash, which was subject to certain adjustments for cash, indebtedness, transaction expenses, working capital and liquefied natural gas and fuel inventory (the “Acquisition”). Under the terms of the purchase agreement, we acquired 100% of the operating interests in three facilities, as well as the operations, pipelines and infrastructure associated therewith: the Montego Bay LNG Terminal, the Old Harbour LNG Terminal and the Clarendon combined heat and power plant. The Acquisition was funded with the Debt Offering (as defined herein), the Equity Offering (as defined herein), and cash on hand.
Previous report
The Acquisition directly aligns with our strategies of (1) acquiring interests in LNG regasification terminals and integrated LNG infrastructure projects, which we believe will enhance long-term contract revenue and margins, and (2) diversifying the geographic mix of the LNG markets we serve and our customer base.
Previous report
We believe that the Acquisition is complementary to our existing assets and business strategy and establishes Excelerate as a provider of “last-mile” LNG infrastructure in Jamaica. Additionally, the Acquisition provides an attractive downstream natural gas market for Excelerate’s 20-year Venture Global LNG supply agreement and secures pull through demand and value-accretive offtake for our LNG supply. The Acquisition aligns with our investment thesis in the following ways:
Previous report
During the third quarter of 2025, Dutch Title Transfer Facility (“TTF”) prices remained steady at $11.70 per million British thermal units (“MMBtu”) compared to $11.76/MMBtu in the second quarter of 2025. Japan Korea Marker (JKM) reported average third quarter 2025 prices of $11.84/MMBtu, which decreased from second quarter 2025 prices of $13.11/MMBtu.
Previous report
Global LNG trade volumes reached approximately 104 million tons per annum (“MTPA”) in the third quarter of 2025, a modest increase from 101 MTPA in the second quarter. This uptick was driven by stronger seasonal demand in Europe and a rebound in Asian spot LNG imports, particularly in China and India, where heatwaves and infrastructure expansions boosted gas-for-power consumption. However, global economic uncertainty and relatively high prices continued to weigh on broader natural gas demand, especially in price-sensitive markets. Meanwhile, Europe’s LNG imports increased, supported by increased storage injections and lower pipeline flows from Russia.
Previous report
We believe the continued growth in global LNG supply will drive greater affordability for customers worldwide. Globally there is approximately 193 MTPA of new liquefaction capacity coming online by 2030. As new liquefaction capacity comes online, downward pressure on prices may unlock new opportunities for fuel switching, particularly in regions such as the Caribbean where diesel and heavy fuel oil remain prevalent. More affordable LNG could provide a catalyst for investments in regasification infrastructure and long-term LNG supply agreements. This reinforces our strategic focus on the downstream segment of the LNG value chain, where Excelerate is also well positioned to deliver flexible, scalable LNG solutions that connect emerging demand centers with reliable supply.

We have international operations that are also subject to foreign income tax and U.S. corporate subsidiaries subject to U.S. federal tax. Therefore, its effective income tax rate is dependent on many factors, including the geographical distribution of income, a rate benefit attributable to the portion of our earnings not subject to corporate level taxes, and the impact of nondeductible items and foreign exchange impacts as well as varying tax regimes of jurisdictions. In one jurisdiction, our tax rate is significantly less than the applicable statutory rate as a result of a tax holiday that was granted. This tax holiday will expire in 2033 at the same time that our contract with and revenue from our customer ends.
Previous report
Net income attributable to non-controlling interest was $97.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, an increase of $12.9 million, as compared to $85.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The increase in net income attributable to non-controlling interest was primarily due to higher net income attributable to owners of our Class B Common Stock, partially offset by a decrease in the Class B ownership as a result of the Equity Offering (as defined herein).
Previous report
During the year ended December 31, 2024, we repurchased 2,473,787 shares of our outstanding Class A Common Stock at a weighted average price of $20.41 per share, for a total net cost, including commission fees and taxes, of approximately $50.0 million. As indicated under the EELP Limited Partnership Agreement, for each Class A Common Stock we repurchased, EELP, immediately prior to the repurchase, redeemed an equal number of Class A interests held by us, upon the same terms and at the same price, as the shares of our Class A Common Stock were repurchased.

Newbuild Agreement
Previous report
In February 2023, we executed a 20-year LNG sale and purchase agreement (“SPA”) with Venture Global LNG. Under the agreement, we will purchase 0.7 MTPA of LNG on a free-on-board basis from the Plaquemines Phase 2 LNG facility in Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana. Our purchase commitment will be based on the final settlement price of monthly Henry Hub natural gas futures contracts plus a contractual spread. The start of this commitment, however, is dependent on the second phase of the LNG facility becoming operational, which is not expected in the next 12 months.
Previous report
In January 2024, we executed a 15-year SPA with QatarEnergy. Under the agreement, we have agreed to purchase LNG from QatarEnergy beginning in 2026. QatarEnergy will deliver 0.85 MTPA of LNG in 2026 and 2027 and 1.0 MTPA from 2028 to 2040. Our purchase commitment will be based on a three-month average of Brent Crude prices for the months immediately preceding each delivery, multiplied by a fixed percentage. These LNG volumes are intended to be used to supply sales under the SPA we have with Petrobangla.
Previous report
In the third quarter of 2024, we signed a medium-term agreement for LNG purchases in one of the Atlantic Basin regions in which we do business. Over the term of this agreement, we will purchase approximately 0.65 million tonnes of LNG, the pricing of which will be based on TTF. The first purchase under this agreement was made during the fourth quarter of 2024.
Previous report
In May 2025, as part of the Acquisition, we assumed an LNG SPA. Under the agreement, we will purchase approximately 0.14 million tonnes of LNG for the remainder of 2025 and approximately 0.55 MTPA throughout the remainder of the agreement, which ends in January 2030. Our purchase commitment is based on the final settlement price of monthly Henry Hub natural gas futures contracts plus a contractual spread and adjusted for inflation. These LNG volumes are expected to be used to supply customers in Jamaica.

Business Combination
Previous report
We account for business combinations in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, we allocate the purchase price of an acquired business to its identifiable assets and liabilities based on estimated fair values. The fair values of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed are determined based on various valuation techniques, including the cost approach, discounted cash flow analysis, and independent appraisals. Goodwill is calculated as the difference between the estimate of the fair value of the consideration transferred and the estimates of the fair value assigned to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company intends to finalize the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable within the measurement period, but in no event later than one year following the closing date of the combination. Transaction and integration costs associated with business combinations are expensed as incurred.

Previous wording
Excelerate Energy, Inc. (“Excelerate” and together with its subsidiaries, “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) owns and operates liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) and natural gas infrastructure assets. Once natural gas is liquefied, it needs an inlet into the countries where it will be consumed – and Excelerate provides that home for LNG. Our assets are the receiving point across the globe for LNG, which we convert back into natural gas through the process of regasification. That natural gas is then used by us, our customers, or other end users further downstream for lower carbon emitting power generation or direct energy consumption. At Excelerate, we believe that access to energy sources such as LNG is critical to assist countries in growing their economies, enhancing their energy security, and advancing their decarbonization efforts.
