Adjusted EBITDA1 increased $733 million and $1.3 billion during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, as compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to increased margins per MMBtu of LNG, and to a lesser extent from increased volumes of LNG delivered. Adjusted EBITDA was also positively impacted by the recognition of a portion of the $765 million

lump-sum payment to be made by Chevron U.S.A. Inc. (“Chevron”) during calendar year 2022 related to the early termination of the Terminal Use Agreement (“TUA”) between Sabine Pass LNG, L.P. and Chevron.
Net loss was $514 million and $13 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, as compared to net income of $381 million and $1.1 billion for the comparable 2021 periods. This unfavorable change was primarily due to non-cash unfavorable changes in fair value of commodity derivatives, partially offset by increased margins per MMBtu of LNG and increased volumes of LNG delivered. The unfavorable change was also partially offset by the recognition of a portion of the lump-sum payment related to the early termination of the TUA with Chevron.
Substantially all derivative losses are attributable to the recognition at fair value of our long-term Integrated Production Marketing (“IPM”) agreement with Tourmaline, a natural gas supply contract with pricing indexed to the Platts Japan Korea Marker (“JKM”). While operationally we seek to eliminate commodity risk by utilizing derivatives to mitigate price volatility for commodities procured or sold over a period of time, as a result of the significant appreciation in the forward JKM curves during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized approximately $1.3 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively, of non-cash unfavorable changes in fair value attributable to the Tourmaline IPM agreement.
Our IPM agreement is structured to provide stable margins on purchases of natural gas and sales of LNG over the life of the agreement and has a fixed fee component, similar to that of LNG sold under our long-term, fixed fee LNG SPAs. However, the long-term duration and international price basis of our IPM agreement makes it particularly susceptible to fluctuations in fair market value from period to period. In addition, accounting requirements prescribe recognition of this long-term gas supply agreement at fair value, but does not currently permit fair value recognition of the associated sale of LNG, resulting in incompatibility of accounting recognition for the purchase of natural gas and sale of LNG.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, we recognized in income 363 TBtu and 1,110 TBtu, respectively, of LNG loaded from the SPL Project (defined below). Additionally, in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, approximately 13 TBtu of commissioning LNG was exported from the SPL Project.

Adjusted EBITDA$1,471 $738 $3,480 $2,207 
(1) Change in fair value of commodity derivatives prior to contractual delivery or termination
Adjusted EBITDA is commonly used as a supplemental financial measure by our management and external users of our Consolidated Financial Statements to assess the financial performance of our assets without regard to financing methods, capital structures, or historical cost basis. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent cash flows from operations or net income as defined by U.S. GAAP and is not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
We believe Adjusted EBITDA provides relevant and useful information to management, investors and other users of our financial information in evaluating the effectiveness of our operating performance in a manner that is consistent with management’s evaluation of financial and operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by taking net income (loss) before interest expense, net of capitalized interest, depreciation and amortization, and adjusting for the effects of certain non-cash items, other non-operating income or expense items and other items not otherwise predictive or indicative of ongoing operating performance, including the effects of modification or extinguishment of debt, impairment expense and loss on disposal of assets, and changes in the fair value of our commodity derivatives prior to contractual delivery or termination. The change in fair value of commodity derivatives is considered in determining Adjusted EBITDA given that the timing of recognizing gains and losses on these derivative contracts differs from the recognition of the related item economically hedged. We believe the exclusion of these items enables investors and other users of our financial information to assess our sequential and year-over-year performance and operating trends on a more comparable basis and is consistent with management’s own evaluation of performance.
