|
(2)
|
Conversion is subject to various limitations and conditions.
|
(3)
|
Convertible on or after the later of March 1, 2020 and the substantial completion of Train 2 of the CCL Project, provided that our market capitalization is not less than
$10.0 billion
(“Eligible Conversion Date”). The conversion price is the lower of (1) a
10%
discount to the average of the daily volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of our common stock for the
90
trading day period prior to the date notice is provided, and (2) a
10%
discount to the closing price of our common stock on the trading day preceding the date notice is provided.
|
(4)
|
Redeemable at any time after March 15, 2020 at a redemption price payable in cash equal to the accreted amount of the 2045 Cheniere Convertible Senior Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to such redemption date.
|
(5)
|
Initially convertible at
$93.64
(subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events), provided that the closing price of our common stock is greater than or equal to the conversion price on the conversion date.
|
(6)
|
Convertible on or after the
six
-month anniversary of the Eligible Conversion Date, provided that our total market capitalization is not less than
$10.0 billion
, at a price equal to the average of the daily VWAP of our common stock for the
90
trading day period prior to the date on which notice of conversion is provided.
|
(7)
|
Prior to December 15, 2044, convertible only under certain circumstances as specified in the indenture; thereafter, holders may convert their notes regardless of these circumstances. The conversion rate will initially equal
7.2265
shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 2045 Cheniere Convertible Senior Notes, which corresponds to an initial conversion price of approximately
$138.38
per share of our common stock (subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain specified events).
|
(8)
|
Rate to accrete the discounted carrying value of the convertible notes to the face value over the remaining amortization period.
|
(9)
|
We amortize any debt discount and debt issuance costs using the effective interest over the period through contractual maturity except for the
2025 CCH HoldCo II Convertible Senior Notes
, which are amortized through the date they are first convertible by holders into our common stock.

|

|

The weighted average recognition timing represents an estimate of the number of years during which we shall have recognized half of the unsatisfied transaction price.
|
(1)
|
We omit from the table above all performance obligations that are part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less.
|
(2)
|
We omit from the table above all variable consideration that is allocated entirely to a wholly unsatisfied performance obligation or to a wholly unsatisfied promise to transfer a distinct good or service that forms part of a single performance obligation when that performance obligation qualifies as a series. The table above excludes all variable consideration under our SPAs and TUAs. The amount of revenue from variable fees that is not included in the transaction price will vary based on the future prices of Henry Hub throughout the contract terms, to the extent customers elect to take delivery of their LNG, and adjustments to the consumer price index. Certain of our contracts contain additional variable consideration based on the outcome of contingent events and the movement of various indexes. The receipt of such variable consideration is considered constrained due to the uncertainty of ultimate pricing and receipt and we have not included such variable consideration in the transaction price. During each of the
three and six months ended June 30, 2018
, approximately
55%
of our LNG revenues from contracts with a duration of over one year and approximately
3%
of our regasification revenues were related to variable consideration received from customers.

Leases (Topic 842)
, and subsequent amendments thereto
|
|
This standard requires a lessee to recognize leases on its balance sheet by recording a lease liability representing the obligation to make future lease payments and a right-of-use asset representing the right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. A lessee is permitted to make an election not to recognize lease assets and liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less. The standard also modifies the definition of a lease and requires expanded disclosures. This guidance may be early adopted, and may be adopted using either a modified retrospective approach to apply the standard at the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements or an optional transition approach to apply the standard at the date of adoption with no retrospective adjustments to prior periods. Certain additional practical expedients are also available.
|
|
January 1, 2019
|
|
We continue to evaluate the effect of this standard on our Consolidated Financial Statements. This evaluation process includes reviewing all forms of leases, performing a completeness assessment over the lease population, analyzing the practical expedients and assessing opportunities to make certain changes to our lease accounting information technology system in order to determine the best implementation strategy. Preliminarily, we anticipate a material impact from the requirement to recognize all leases on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Because this assessment is preliminary and the accounting for leases is subject to significant judgment, this conclusion could change as we finalize our assessment. We have not yet determined the impact of the adoption of this standard upon our results of operations or cash flows. We anticipate electing the optional transition method to initially apply the standard at the January 1, 2019 adoption date. We expect to elect the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance which, among other things, allows the carryforward of prior conclusions related to lease identification and classification. We also expect to elect the practical expedient to retain our existing accounting for land easements which were not previously accounted for as leases. We have not yet determined whether we will elect any other practical expedients upon transition.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)
, and subsequent amendments thereto
|
|
This standard provides a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model which replaces and supersedes most existing revenue recognition guidance and requires an entity to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The standard requires that the costs to obtain and fulfill contracts with customers should be recognized as assets and amortized to match the pattern of transfer of goods or services to the customer if expected to be recoverable. The standard also requires enhanced disclosures. This guidance may be adopted either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented subject to allowable practical expedients (“full retrospective approach”) or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption (“modified retrospective approach”).
|
|
January 1, 2018
|
|
We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2018, using the full retrospective method. The adoption of this guidance represents a change in accounting principle that will provide financial statement readers with enhanced disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The adoption of this guidance did not impact our previously reported consolidated financial statements in any prior period nor did it result in a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings. See
Note 11—Revenues from Contracts with Customers
for additional disclosures.

ASU 2016-16,
Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory
|
|
This standard requires the immediate recognition of the tax consequences of intercompany asset transfers other than inventory. This guidance may be early adopted, but only at the beginning of an annual period, and must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach.
|
|
January 1, 2018
|
|
The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements or related disclosures.

Section 6.8.A.2 provides that Contractor is entitled to an adjustment of the Contract Price for any delay or prevention that meets the requirements of Section 6.8A of the Agreement, if such delay or prevention, alone or in conjunction with other Force Majeure Events, continues for a period of at least thirty (30) Days, in the aggregate. The Parties agree that the Force Majeure impacts of Hurricane Harvey prevented or delayed the Work for a period of thirty-eight (38) Days and that Contractor is entitled to compensation for the reasonable costs necessarily incurred by Contractor during the eight (8) Days after the expiration of the thirty (30) Day period. The Parties agree that Owner will compensate Contractor in the amount of Nine Million Two Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S. $9,200,000) for such costs (the “Hurricane Harvey Force Majeure Compensation”). The Hurricane Harvey Force Majeure Compensation shall reduce the Owner’s total liability set forth in Section 6.8.A.2.c of the Agreement from Fifty Million U.S. Dollars (U.S. $50,000,000) to Forty Million Eight Hundred Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S. $40,800,000).
