EE is in a Stage 2 advancing corrective reset within a clear long-term uptrend.

Short-term conditions are extreme overbought, but the Lockout Rally override signals further urgency and justifies entering on a pullback into rising EMAs.

Bull points

  • as this LNG wave comes on in the US, I'd expect to see a good correlation to, you know, the LNG coming on to some of these opportunities as the, you know, the affordability of that long-term supply is able to displace the fuels in some of these markets in the region.
  • net income of $50 million, a sequential increase of $11 million, or up 28% as compared to the fourth quarter of 2025. Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter was $122 million, up roughly 10 million, or up about 9%, versus the prior quarter. The net income and adjusted EBITDA increases were driven primarily by vessel optimization and higher LNG gas and power margins.
  • This updated outlook reflects careful planning, solid underlying fundamentals, and a continued focus on building durable, contracted earnings. Looking beyond 2026, the growth path through 2028 remains intact.

  • Based on our current assessment, we expect the financial impact to be approximately $1 million per month while the Strait of Hormuz remains closed.
