1		Net income as used herein refers to net income attributable to common stockholders on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
2		Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure. See Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures below for further information, including a reconciliation of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders, the most directly comparable financial measure prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA includes portions attributable to non-controlling interests.

With 34 of 36 liquefaction trains at the Plaquemines Project now producing LNG, we expect total cargos across our projects to be 382 – 386 cargos for the year. We are reducing and tightening the range of our Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA⁽²⁾ guidance to $6.35 billion – $6.50 billion from $6.40 billion – $6.80 billion, adjusting for lower expected fixed liquefaction fees reflecting higher domestic natural gas prices, two expected DES loadings that will be realized upon delivery at their destinations in early 2026 and accounting reserves relating to ongoing arbitrations.

“The Venture Global team continues to excel operationally, as evidenced by the significant accomplishments we achieved this quarter, including the 100 cargos we exported in Q3, our elevated financial performance year-over-year and successful capital transactions, and the execution of over 5 MTPA in new LNG supply agreements,” said Venture Global CEO Mike Sabel. “We are pleased with the construction and commissioning process at Plaquemines, which is progressing well and safely despite power island construction delays and normal-course challenges inherent in projects of this scale and complexity. This quarter we reaffirmed our COD timing for Phase 1 and Phase 2, and thanks to incremental investments made by VG including temporary power at no additional cost to our customers, we remain on track to reach COD at Phase 1 in 54 months. The early-stage construction progress at CP2 is also well positioned to bring new LNG supply to global markets on schedule. Our record of execution positions Venture Global as an important leader in the LNG market, enabling us to provide flexible short and medium term supply as well as the lowest-cost long-term LNG to the world.”

Summary and Review of Financial Results

(in millions, except LNG data)		Three months ended September 30,									Nine months ended September 30,
			2025			2024			% Change			2025			2024		% Change
Revenue		$	3,329		$	926			260%		$	9,324		$	3,448		170%
Income from operations		$	1,320		$	189			598%		$	3,438		$	1,169		194%
Net income (loss)1		$	429		$	(347	)		NA		$	1,193		$	604		98%
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA2		$	1,525		$	283			439%		$	4,264		$	1,416		201%
LNG volumes exported:
Cargos			100			31			223%			252			107		136%
TBtu			371.8			110.4			237%			936.3			384.0		144%
LNG volumes sold (TBtu)			373.0			100.0			273%			930.5			373.0		149%

Net income¹ for the three months ended September 30, 2025, increased $776 million as compared to a net loss¹ during the same period in 2024. This increase was largely driven by higher income from operations of $1.1 billion primarily due higher LNG sales volumes of $1.9 billion primarily at the Plaquemines Project, partially offset by lower LNG sales prices net of the cost of feed gas of $645 million at the Calcasieu Project due to the commencement of LNG sales under its post-COD SPAs in April 2025, non-cash favorable changes in interest rates swaps of $336 million and higher interest expense of $293 million. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA² for the three months ended September 30, 2025, increased $1.2 billion, or 439%, as compared to 2024 driven primarily by higher LNG sales volumes primarily at the Plaquemines Project, resulting in greater total margin for LNG sold.

Net income¹ for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, increased by $589 million, or 98%, as compared to 2024. This increase was primarily driven by higher income from operations of $2.3 billion primarily due to higher LNG sales volumes $4.0 billion primarily at the Plaquemines Project, partially offset by lower LNG sales prices net of the cost of feed gas of $1.0 billion at the Calcasieu Project due to the commencement of LNG sales under its post-COD SPAs in April 2025, non-cash unfavorable changes in interest rate swaps of $518 million and higher interest expense of $540 million. Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA² for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, increased $2.8 billion, or 201%, as compared to 2024 driven primarily by higher LNG sales volumes primarily at the Plaquemines Project, partially offset by lower LNG sales prices net of the cost of feed gas at the Calcasieu Project.

Updated 2025 Outlook

Our updated guidance for 2025 is as follows:

• Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA¹ guidance for the full year 2025 is being reduced and tightened from $6.40 billion – $6.80 billion to $6.35 billion – $6.50 billion. The reduction accounts for a lower assumed fixed liquefaction fee on the remaining unsold cargos and the impact of reserves taken relative to ongoing arbitrations.
  • As noted last quarter, changes in natural gas prices, both domestic and international, could impact Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA guidance. The spread between domestic and international prices for gas and LNG is largely unchanged since last quarter. Consequently, we assume a fixed liquefaction fee range of $4.50/MMBtu – $5.50/MMBtu for our remaining unsold cargos in 2025 in support of our reiterated guidance, reflecting market forward prices and recently executed cargo sales.
  • +/- $1.00/MMBtu change in fixed liquefaction fees will impact our full year 2025 Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA by $50 million – $60 million, as opposed to $230 million – $240 million previously.
• We now expect to export 148 cargos from the Calcasieu Project and 234 – 238 cargos from the Plaquemines Project in 2025, inclusive of the 108 and 144 cargos we exported from the Calcasieu Project and the Plaquemines Project, respectively, in the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

We do not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking amounts of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA to Net income², the most directly comparable financial measure prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. Many of the adjustments and exclusions used to calculate the projected Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA may vary significantly based on actual events, so we are not able to forecast on a GAAP basis with reasonable certainty all adjustments needed in order to provide a GAAP calculation of these projected amounts. The amounts of these adjustments may be material and, therefore, could result in the GAAP measure being materially different from (including materially less than) the projected non-GAAP measures. The guidance in this press release is only effective as of the date it is given and will not be updated or affirmed unless and until we publicly announce updated or affirmed guidance.

Webcast and Conference Call Information

Venture Global will host a conference call to discuss third quarter results for 2025 and discuss our updated guidance for full year 2025 at 9:00 am Eastern Time (ET) on November 10, 2025. The live webcast of Venture Global’s earnings conference call can be accessed at our website at www.ventureglobal.com along with the earnings press release, financial tables, and slide presentation. After the conclusion of the webcast, a replay will be made available on the Venture Global website.

our dependence on our EPC and other contractors for the successful completion of our projects and delivery of our LNG tankers, including the potential inability of our contractors to perform their obligations under their contracts; various economic and political factors, including opposition by environmental or other public interest groups, or the lack of local government and community support required for our projects, which could negatively affect the timing or overall development, construction and operation of our projects; the effects of FERC regulation on our interstate natural gas pipelines and their FERC gas tariffs; our potential inability to obtain, maintain or comply with necessary permits or approvals from governmental and regulatory agencies on which the construction of our projects depends, including as a result of opposition by environmental and other public interest groups; the risk that the natural gas liquefaction system and mid-scale design we utilize at our projects will not achieve the level of performance or other benefits that we anticipate; potential additional risks arising from the duration of and the phased commissioning start-up of our projects; the potential risk that our customers or we may terminate our SPAs if certain conditions are not met or for other reasons; potential decreases in the price of natural gas and its related impact on our ability to pay the cost of gas transportation, the payment of a premium by us for feed gas relative to the contractual price we charge our customers, or other impacts to the price of natural gas resulting from inflationary pressures; the potential negative impacts of seasonal fluctuations on our business; our current and potential involvement in disputes and legal proceedings, including the arbitrations and other proceedings currently pending against us and the possibility of a negative outcome in any such dispute or proceeding and the potential impact thereof on our results of operations, liquidity and our existing contracts; the risks related to the development and/or contracting for additional gas transportation capacity to support the operation and expansion capacity of our LNG projects; the risks related to the management and operation of our LNG tanker fleet and our future regasification terminal usage rights; the uncertainty regarding the future of international trade agreements and the United States’ position on international trade, including the effects of any current or future tariffs imposed by the U.S. and any current or future retaliatory tariffs imposed by other countries, including China, on the U.S.; the potential effects of existing and future environmental and similar laws and governmental regulations on compliance costs, operating and/or construction costs and restrictions; our indebtedness levels, and the fact that we may be able to incur substantially more indebtedness, which may increase the risks created by our substantial indebtedness. For more information on these and other factors that could cause our results to differ materially from expected results, please refer to the risks and uncertainties discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
