- **$1.055B Jamaica Sale Success**: Generated $430M gain, reducing debt maturities to 2027+ and improving liquidity to $1.1B.
- **Brazil Project Momentum**: CELBA (95% complete) and PortoCem (54% complete) on track for 2025H2/2026H1 CODs, backed by 20-year, inflation-linked contracts.
- **EBITDA Guidance Raised**: Full-year EBITDA + gains revised to $1.25-$1.5B, up from prior estimate.
- **FSRU Re-leasing Growth**: $200M in future earnings from Eskimo and Freeze charters, with potential $200M upfront sale.
- **Puerto Rico Fuel Savings**: Targeting $300M annual savings via diesel-to-natural gas conversions, supported by new generation RFPs.

**【CEO Summary Section】**
- **Core Earnings Consistency**: Q1 2025 core earnings of $109 million align with prior quarters, reflecting stable performance post-Puerto Rico FEMA claims resolution.
- **EBITDA Guidance Update**: Full-year EBITDA plus gains revised to $1.25-$1.5 billion (up from previous estimate), driven by $430 million gain from the $1.055 billion Jamaica sale closed on May 14, 2025.
- **Jamaica Sale Highlights**: Net proceeds of $778 million, with $227 million used to repay Jamalco asset-level debt. Proceeds will reduce near-term maturities and extend debt duration to 2027+.
- **Brazil Growth Focus**: 624 MW CELBA power plant (95% complete) and 1.6 GW PortoCem plant (54% complete) on track for 2025H2 and 2026H1 CODs. Barcarena complex contracts provide 20-year, inflation-linked cash flows with BBB- to B+ counterparties.
- **Puerto Rico Strategy**: Targeting $300 million annual fuel cost savings via diesel-to-natural gas conversions. New generation RFPs and gas supply contracts present growth opportunities.

**【CFO Financial Commentary】**
- **Q1 Financial Results**: Adjusted EBITDA $82 million (vs. $240 million in Q4 2024), driven by delayed PR incentive payment ($110 million) and Eskimo vessel charter sale. GAAP net loss $200 million, but liquidity improved to $1.1 billion post-Jamaica sale.
- **Liquidity Position**: $448 million cash + $275 million revolver availability + $393 million post-debt paydown proceeds. Restricted cash ($400+ million) allocated to Brazil projects.
- **Debt Management**: Amended credit agreements waive asset sale waterfall, enabling $400 million retained proceeds. Term Loan A reduced by $55 million, revolving facility covenants deferred to September 2025.
- **FSRU Re-leasing**: $200 million in future earnings from Eskimo and Freeze charters, with potential $200 million upfront sale of FSRU contracts.

**【Q&A Key Highlights】**
- **Liquidity Strategy**: Restricted cash ($400+ million) tied to Brazil projects; $1.1 billion pro forma liquidity supports near-term maturities and refinancing.
- **Asset Sales Outlook**: Beyond Jamaica, focus on FSRU contract sales and FLNG 2 development. Brazil auctions delayed but fundamentals remain strong.
- **Puerto Rico Risks**: Regulatory noise around RFPs, but NFE's infrastructure (e.g., widened San Juan terminal) positions it for long-term gas supply leadership.
- **FLNG 2 Update**: Under construction in Corpus Christi; no immediate progress, but project remains strategic for long-term LNG supply.
- **Nicaragua PPA**: Finalizing restructuring to mirror Brazil model, with gas contracts indexed to Henry Hub + premium for BB+ credit quality.
