The company owns and operates terminals pipelines storage facilities and an integrated fleet of ships to deliver LNG and natural gas to power plants industrial users and utilities. In addition New Fortress Energy Inc. has developed a modular liquefaction technology known as Fast LNG to produce low cost LNG supply for its own terminals and for third party customers. The firm aims to address energy poverty and support the transition to reliable affordable and cleaner energy sources.

New Fortress Energy Inc. generates revenue primarily through the sale of LNG and natural gas to its downstream customers and through the provision of power generation services under long term power purchase agreements. The company also earns charter revenue from vessels that are leased to third parties under time charter arrangements. Service fees from operations and maintenance contracts such as the agreement with the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority for thermal generation assets contribute to income. Additionally the firm derives income from the sale of cargoes and from the utilization of its own Fast LNG production to supply its terminals.

The company operates through the following segments: Terminals and Infrastructure and Ships.

• Terminals and Infrastructure includes the full value chain from natural gas procurement and liquefaction to logistics storage and regasification. This segment operates terminals in Puerto Rico Mexico and Brazil and manages the associated pipelines and power generation facilities. It also encompasses the company’s own LNG production from the Fast LNG units and the coordination of vessel deployment for its terminal operations.
• The Ships segment consists of floating storage and regasification units floating storage units and LNG carriers. Certain of these vessels are currently chartered to third parties under long term agreements and are part of the Energos Formation Transaction.
