LNG is believed to provide an important balance between environmental sustainability, security, accessibility, and economic viability, playing a key role in the energy transition[15](index=15&type=chunk)[23](index=23&type=chunk) - New and expanding markets for LNG include marine bunkering (driven by IMO sulfur caps) and rocket propulsion (due to higher energy density, reduced explosion risk, and ease of production)[24](index=24&type=chunk) - Natural gas produces significantly lower carbon dioxide, particulate matter, and sulfur emissions compared to other fossil fuels like coal, gasoline, and diesel[25](index=25&type=chunk) - LNG is generally less expensive than competing fuel sources (e.g., crude oil, distillate fuels, propane) and exhibits less price sensitivity due to the smaller commodity cost portion[26](index=26&type=chunk) - LNG offers better safety characteristics than diesel and propane, as it boils and dissipates rapidly when spilled and has a higher ignition temperature and narrower flammability range[29](index=29&type=chunk) - Established small-scale LNG production and distribution technologies are widely available, reducing technology risk but placing a premium on owner/operator capabilities[30](index=30&type=chunk) [Our Customers](index=6&type=section&id=Our%20Customers) Stabilis serves approximately 50 customers across diverse North American markets, including aerospace and mining, with two customers each contributing over 10% of 2022 revenues -

Operation and/or construction of LNG infrastructure and facilities involve significant risks, including equipment failures, operational errors, industrial accidents, natural disasters, and non-compliance with health and safety regulations[69](index=69&type=chunk)[70](index=70&type=chunk) - Insurance may be insufficient to cover losses from inherent operational risks (e.g., explosions, pollution, natural disasters), potentially leading to significant liabilities and adverse effects on the business[71](index=71&type=chunk)[72](index=72&type=chunk) - The design, construction, and operation of energy-related infrastructure, including LNG facilities, are highly regulated activities, posing risks related to obtaining and maintaining permits, approvals, and authorizations[73](index=73&type=chunk)[75](index=75&type=chunk) - Existing and future environmental, health, and safety laws and regulations (e.g., CAA, CWA, RCRA, OSHA, GHG emissions) could result in increased compliance costs, additional operating/construction costs, and restrictions[76](index=76&type=chunk)[81](index=81&type=chunk)[83](index=83&type=chunk) - Dependence on contractors for successful completion of energy-related infrastructure projects introduces risks related to their performance, schedule adherence, cost overruns, and potential disagreements[87](index=87&type=chunk)[88](index=88&type=chunk) - Inability to purchase or receive physical delivery of natural gas in sufficient quantities and/or quality or at economically attractive prices could adversely affect delivery obligations and revenues[89](index=89&type=chunk) - Competition based on market price for LNG or natural gas, including from alternative fuels and energy sources, may prevent new contracts or decrease prices, adversely affecting results of operations[90](index=90&type=chunk)[92](index=92&type=chunk) - Technological innovation may render current processes obsolete, requiring continuous adaptation to maintain a competitive position and realize benefits from future projects[93](index=93&type=chunk) -
