NOTE 10 — STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
At-the-Market Equity Offering Programs
We maintain at-the-market equity offering programs pursuant to which we sell shares of our common stock from time to time on the NYSE American. On December 30, 2022, we entered into an at-the-market equity offering program for aggregate sales proceeds of up to $500.0 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we issued approximately 29.6 million shares of our common stock under this at-the-market equity offering program for net proceeds of approximately $17.8 million. This at-the-market equity offering program has been inactive since February 1, 2024. As of March 31, 2024, this at-the-market equity offering program had a remaining capacity to raise aggregate sales proceeds of up to approximately $366.1 million.
On March 15, 2024, we entered into a new at-the-market equity offering program with capacity to raise aggregate sales proceeds of up to approximately $366.1 million. See Note 17, Subsequent Events, for further information.
Preferred Stock
In March 2018, we entered into a preferred stock purchase agreement with BDC Oil and Gas Holdings, LLC (“Bechtel Holdings”), a Delaware limited liability company and an affiliate of Bechtel Energy Inc., pursuant to which we sold to Bechtel Holdings approximately 6.1 million shares of our Series C convertible preferred stock (the “Preferred Stock”).
The holders of the Preferred Stock do not have dividend rights but do have a liquidation preference over holders of our common stock. The holders of the Preferred Stock may convert all or any portion of their shares into shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis. At any time after “Substantial Completion” of “Project 1,” each as defined in and pursuant to the LSTK EPC Agreement for the Driftwood LNG Phase 1 Liquefaction Facility, dated as of November 10, 2017, or at any time after March 21, 2028, we have the right to cause all of the Preferred Stock to be converted into shares of our common stock on a one-for-one basis. The Preferred Stock has been excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because including it in the computation would have been antidilutive for the periods presented.
