Cheniere Energy raised its full-year 2026 adjusted EBITDA guidance to USD 7.9 billion to USD 8.4 billion after second-quarter operating gains. ScanX News reported the revised outlook on October 12, 2026, alongside higher LNG volumes and a USD 1.2 billion second-quarter distributable cash flow figure.
Guidance reaches a new range
The revised adjusted EBITDA range followed second-quarter revenue of USD 5.73 billion and net income of USD 3.07 billion for the period ended June 30, 2026. Revenue increased 23.50 percent from the comparable period, while the company produced and exported 184 LNG cargoes, equivalent to 672 TBtu, according to ScanX News. The production total was 20 percent higher than in the second quarter of 2025.
The guidance midpoint increased by USD 650 million, while the midpoint of distributable cash flow guidance rose by USD 550 million. The operating explanation was higher utilization, faster ramp-up of mid-scale trains, stronger marketing margins and optimization gains.
Three dates show the progression
