Net income (loss) was approximately $791 million and $3.3 billion for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to approximately $(514) million and $(13) million in the corresponding 2022 periods. The favorable changes were primarily due to non-cash favorable changes in fair value of commodity derivatives (further described below).
Adjusted EBITDA1 decreased by approximately $678 million and $904 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to the corresponding 2022 periods. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to lower regasification revenues driven by the early termination of one of our terminal use agreements in 2022, as well as decreased total margins per MMBtu of LNG delivered.
Substantially all derivative gains (losses) are attributable to the recognition at fair value of our long-term Integrated

Production Marketing (“IPM”) agreement with Tourmaline Oil Marketing Corp. (“Tourmaline”), a natural gas supply contract with pricing indexed to the Platts Japan Korea Marker (“JKM”). 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 sale and purchase agreement (“SPA”). 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 each reporting period on a mark-to-market basis, but do not currently permit mark-to-market recognition of the associated sale of LNG, resulting in a mismatch of accounting recognition for the purchase of natural gas and sale of LNG. As a result of continued moderation of international gas price volatility and declines in international forward commodity curves during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized approximately $217 million and $1.5 billion, respectively of non-cash favorable changes in fair value attributable to the Tourmaline IPM agreement.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recognized in income 362 TBtu and 1,118 TBtu of LNG, respectively, loaded from the SPL Project, none of which was related to commissioning activities.
Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2023, our total available liquidity was approximately $2.3 billion. We had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $499 million. In addition, we had current restricted cash and cash equivalents of $35 million, $1.0 billion of available commitments under the Cheniere Partners Revolving Credit Facility, and $716 million of available commitments under the Sabine Pass Liquefaction, LLC (“SPL”) Revolving Credit Facility.
Recent Key Financial Transactions and Updates
In July 2023, SPL redeemed $1.4 billion of SPL’s 5.75% Senior Secured Notes due 2024 (the “2024 SPL Senior Notes”) using the proceeds from Cheniere Partners’ issuance of $1.4 billion aggregate principal amount of 5.95% Senior Notes due 2033 in June 2023.

In September 2023, Cheniere Partners redeemed $50 million in principal amount of the 2024 SPL Senior Notes with cash on hand.

SABINE PASS OVERVIEW
We own natural gas liquefaction facilities consisting of six liquefaction Trains, with a total production capacity of approximately 30 million tonnes per annum (“mtpa”) of LNG at the Sabine Pass LNG terminal in Cameron Parish, Louisiana (the “SPL Project”).
As of October 26, 2023, approximately 2,270 cumulative LNG cargoes totaling approximately 155 million tonnes of LNG have been produced, loaded, and exported from the SPL Project.
SPL Expansion Project
We are developing an expansion adjacent to the SPL Project with a potential production capacity of up to 20 mtpa of LNG (the “SPL Expansion Project”). In May 2023, certain of our subsidiaries entered the pre-filing review process with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) under the National Environmental Policy Act, and in April 2023, executed a contract with Bechtel to provide the Front-End Engineering and Design for the SPL Expansion Project.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO UNITHOLDERS
In October 2023, we declared a cash distribution of $1.03 per common unit to unitholders of record as of November 6, 2023, comprised of a base amount equal to $0.775 ($3.10 annualized) and a variable amount equal to $0.255, 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 the business. The common unit distribution and the related general partner distribution will be paid on November 14, 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA$793 $1,471 $2,576 $3,480 
(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.
