[1] In January 2026, we redeemed the remaining redeemable NCI in our consolidated variable interest entity (“VIE”) that owns the Gregory Power Plant, as described in Note 6—Non-Controlling Interests and Variable Interest Entities. Prior to the redemption, in computing basic and diluted net income per share attributable to common stockholders, net income attributable to Cheniere was adjusted for the remeasurement of the redeemable NCI, net of tax, to its redemption value, as required under the two-class method. See Note 13—Net Income per Share Attributable to Common Stockholders for the full computation.
