On Thursday evening Venture Global (VG) disclosed that they\u2019d lost an arbitration case with BP over their Calcasieu Pass LNG terminal. The International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) found that VG had breached its obligation to make a timely declaration of the start of commercial operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BP and other buyers had signed Sale and Purchase Agreements (SPAs) that would start delivering LNG once VG decided the terminal was \u201coperational.\u201d When Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022, global LNG prices soared as Europe struggled to replace lost pipeline imports of natural gas from Russia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>VG interpreted their agreements as giving them enough latitude to delay fulfilling LNG shipments under their SPAs, which allowed them to sell the LNG the terminal was already producing into the high-priced spot market (see&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sl-advisors.com\/nothing-ventured-nothing-gained\">Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shell, BP and other expectant recipients of LNG cried foul and took VG to arbitration, claiming that VG\u2019s windfall gains of $3.5BN were rightly theirs. VG plowed the cash back into their business, building the Plaquemines terminal, reducing their reliance on debt markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In August, VG won a similar arbitration dispute with Shell, also before the ICC. It\u2019s unclear how the same facts and circumstances were interpreted differently by the same tribunal. It seems arbitration can be arbitrary. Following the August victory, VG not unreasonably&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bracewell.com\/resources\/shell-v-venture-global-commissioning-a-dispute\/\">said<\/a>&nbsp;they expected similar outcomes in other cases. In an SEC&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ogj.com\/general-interest\/companies\/news\/55309576\/tribunal-rules-in-favor-of-venture-global-in-shell-contract-dispute\">filing<\/a>&nbsp;submitted just before the Shell ruling, VG warned of $6.7-7.4BN in exposure if all the arbitration cases were lost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Friday, investors reacted to the news by wiping over $7.5BN from VG\u2019s market cap. Assuming the market was 100% sure of positive arbitration outcomes prior, this exceeds the worst case they warned of in August since the Shell ruling was found in their favor. Wells Fargo estimates the worst case including damages of $5.5BN. JPMorgan thinks $4.8BN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>VG is on track to generate over $6.4BN in EBITDA this year, growing by perhaps $300MM next year. If arbitration awards reduce EBITDA by $1BN annually over the next five years, the company is at around 11.8X Enterprise Value\/EBITDA. Cheniere is at 12.4X. The ruling was a big surprise and disappointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"579\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.interactivebrokers.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/Blog-Image-October-12-2025-V2-1-1030x579-1.jpg\" alt=\"Selected gas-exposed names, past year\" class=\"wp-image-208882 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/Blog-Image-October-12-2025-V2-1-1030x579-1.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/Blog-Image-October-12-2025-V2-1-1030x579-1-700x393.jpg 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/Blog-Image-October-12-2025-V2-1-1030x579-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/Blog-Image-October-12-2025-V2-1-1030x579-1-768x432.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1030px; aspect-ratio: 1030\/579;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/b3547620.smushcdn.com\/3547620\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Blog-Image-October-12-2025-V2-1-1030x579.jpg?lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Past performance is not indicative of future results.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m going to be traveling to see clients over the next two weeks. A year ago, at one client\u2019s annual conference, I received applause&nbsp;<em>before&nbsp;<\/em>even beginning my presentation. Four years of sparkling returns were warmly received, but this year has been tough. This time around I anticipate a friendly but less exuberant welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NextDecade (NEXT), whose Rio Grande LNG terminal should start shipping LNG in 2027, recently lost their CFO, an event that algorithms duly interpreted as a reason to sell. It\u2019s been a volatile stock, losing almost half its value following Liberation Day in April. It recovered in the summer, then swooned again when it announced Final Investment Decision on Train 4 with a modestly lower projected EBITDA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NEXT doesn\u2019t generate any cash today, but $800MM of Distributable Cash Flow (DCF) in 2030 discounted to today at 15% pa is worth about $400MM, which is a multiple of around 4X on today\u2019s $1.7BN market cap. It looks cheap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>YTD it is -16%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Energy Transfer (ET) has disappointed the many financial advisors we know that own it directly. Its 7.8% distribution yield is almost 2X covered by DCF. YTD it is \u201312%. It looks attractive to us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Midstream as defined by the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/americanenergyindices.com\/\">American Energy Independence Index<\/a>&nbsp;(AEITR) is \u20131% YTD. Natural gas exposed names have lagged. Gas demand for data centers was last year\u2019s story. Concerns about excess LNG capacity have weighed on exporters this year. The AI-laden S&amp;P500 is +13%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the past twelve months relative performance is better than YTD, but the calendar year is typically how investors assess outcomes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The possible resumption of a trade war with China dominated Friday\u2019s news. Even Trump\u2019s biggest critics have praised the peace agreement between Israel and Hamas. It looks as if we\u2019re moving from that victory to more capricious \u201cslapping\u201d of tariffs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1030\" height=\"579\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.interactivebrokers.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/10\/Blog-Image-October-12-2025-V2-2-1030x579-1.jpg\" alt=\"Dance while the music's playing\" class=\"wp-image-208881 lazyload\" title=\"Blog Image October 12 2025 V2 2\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/Blog-Image-October-12-2025-V2-2-1030x579-1.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/Blog-Image-October-12-2025-V2-2-1030x579-1-700x393.jpg 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/Blog-Image-October-12-2025-V2-2-1030x579-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.eu\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2025\/10\/Blog-Image-October-12-2025-V2-2-1030x579-1-768x432.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1030px) 100vw, 1030px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1030px; aspect-ratio: 1030\/579;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/b3547620.smushcdn.com\/3547620\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Blog-Image-October-12-2025-V2-2-1030x579.jpg?lossy=2&amp;strip=1&amp;webp=1\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The AI bubble is so commonly referenced that it\u2019s hard to believe anyone is unaware of the circular deals identified by Morgan Stanley.
