Risk factors and legal proceedings
The risks New Fortress Energy names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Apr 13, 2026: 76 risks under these headings, as written.68
- Risks Related to Our Business
- We are subject to risks and uncertainties associated with the Restructuring Transaction, the Restructuring Plans and the RSA.
- Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to complete the Restructuring Transaction and delay capital expenditures.
- If the RSA is terminated, our ability to consummate the Restructuring Plans may be materially and adversely affected.
- Effectiveness of the Restructuring Plans requires the approval of the Restructuring Plan creditors.
- Effectiveness of the Restructuring Plans requires the sanction of the UK High Court.
- Certain of the Company’s contracts may contain termination clauses which could be triggered by the Restructuring Plans.
- The Restructuring Plans may not be recognized or enforced in the United States or Mexico.
- Ongoing events of default subject to forbearance could result in the acceleration of substantially all of our indebtedness.
- The separation of the Company into two independent entities as part of the Restructuring Transaction may result in operational, financial, tax and other risks, and there can be no assurance that the anticipated benefits of the separation will be realized.
- The market price of our Class A common stock may decline in the future as a result of the Restructuring Transaction, including the proposed equity issuances and future grants under the Incentive Plan.
- Our ability to implement our business strategy may be materially and adversely affected by many known and unknown factors.
The other 65 risks

- Operation of our infrastructure, facilities and vessels involves significant risks.
- We depend on third-party contractors, operators and suppliers.
- Failure of LNG to be a competitive source of energy in the markets in which we operate, and seek to operate, could adversely affect our expansion strategy.
- We operate in a highly regulated environment and our operations could be adversely affected by actions by governmental entities or changes to regulations and legislation.
- Failure to obtain and maintain permits, approvals and authorizations from governmental and regulatory agencies and third parties on favorable terms could impede operations and construction.
- When we invest significant capital to develop a project, we are subject to the risk that the project is not successfully developed and that our customers do not fulfill their payment obligations to us following our capital investment in a project.
- Failure to maintain sufficient working capital could limit our growth and harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
- Our ability to generate revenues is substantially dependent on our current and future long-term agreements and the performance by customers under such agreements.
- Our current lack of asset and geographic diversification could have an adverse effect on our business, contracts, financial condition, operating results, cash flow, liquidity and prospects.
- Because we are currently dependent upon a limited number of customers, the loss of a significant customer could adversely affect our operating results.
- We may not be able to convert our anticipated customer pipeline into binding long-term contracts, and if we fail to convert potential sales into actual sales, we will not generate the revenues and profits we anticipate.
- Our contracts with our customers are subject to termination under certain circumstances.
- Competition in the LNG industry is intense, and some of our competitors have greater financial, technological and other resources than we currently possess.
- Cyclical or other changes in the demand for and price of LNG and natural gas may adversely affect our business and the performance of our customers.
- Developments related to the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine and the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, as well as geopolitical instability in Venezuela, could adversely affect our business, contracts, financial condition, operating results, cash flows, liquidity and prospects.
- Our risk management strategies cannot eliminate all LNG price and supply risks. In addition, any non-compliance with our risk management strategies could result in significant financial losses.

- We may not be able to fully utilize the capacity of our FSRUs and other facilities.
- The operation of our vessels is dependent on our ability to deploy our vessels to an NFE terminal or to long-term charters.
- Vessel values may fluctuate substantially and, if these values are lower at a time when we are attempting to dispose of vessels, we may incur a loss.
- Maritime claimants could arrest our vessels, which could interrupt our cash flow.
- We seek to develop innovative and new technologies as part of our strategy that are not yet proven and may not realize the time and cost savings we expect to achieve.
- Technological innovation may impair the economic attractiveness of our projects.
- Our Fast LNG technology is a new strategy and may encounter unforeseen or unknown operational risks.
- We have incurred, and may in the future incur, a significant amount of debt. The agreements governing our significant indebtedness place restrictions on us and our subsidiaries, reducing operational and financing flexibility and creating default risks.
- Despite our substantial level of indebtedness, we and our subsidiaries will be permitted to incur additional indebtedness in the future. This could further exacerbate the risks associated with our substantial indebtedness.
- We have entered into, and may in the future enter into or modify existing, joint ventures that might restrict our operational and corporate flexibility or require credit support.

- We may experience increased labor costs and regulation, and the unavailability of skilled workers or our failure to attract and retain qualified personnel, as well as our ability to comply with such labor laws, could adversely affect us.

- Our By-Laws designate the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with us or our directors, officers, employees or agents.
- The declaration and payment of dividends to holders of our Class A common stock is at the discretion of our board of directors and we do not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future.

Legal proceedings
From time to time, we are involved in, and may in the future become involved in, various legal and regulatory claims and proceedings relating to claims arising out of our operations and activities in the normal course of business. If we become a party to proceedings in the future, we may be unable to predict with certainty the ultimate outcome of such claims and proceedings. Refer to Note 25 - Commitments and Contingencies to the consolidated financial statements included in Part II, Item 8. These matters also include the following:
In re New Fortress Energy Inc. Securities Litigation, 24-cv-07032 (S.D.N.Y.)
On September 17, 2024, plaintiff Mikolaj Bojdol filed a putative class action lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against the Company and certain officers alleging violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act and certain rules promulgated thereunder relating to statements concerning the Company’s FLNG project in Altamira, Mexico. On November 1, 2024, plaintiff Taylor Anderson filed a similar class action lawsuit also in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. The cases were consolidated and a lead plaintiff was appointed on December 17, 2024. The lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint on February 18, 2025 asserting claims on behalf of persons and entities that purchased the Company’s securities between September 20, 2022 and August 8, 2024 and seeks compensatory damages, interest, fees, and costs. On February 19, 2026, the Court denied the defendants’ motion to dismiss. The Company believes the claims are without merit and intends to vigorously defend against this lawsuit.
