10 stocks we like better than New Fortress Energy ›
New Fortress Energy (NASDAQ: NFE) stock is getting hit with another round of big sell-offs Tuesday. The company's share price was down 8.6% at 11:15 a.m. ET and had been down as much as 10.3% earlier in trading.
New Fortress submitted a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) stating that the filing of its quarterly 10-Q report will be delayed. While the quarterly report has been pushed further out, the company did say that revenue fell significantly in the period.
New Fortress stock sinks on 10-Q delay
With its filing today, New Fortress said that it believed it was prudent to delay its 10-Q report due to the status of negotiations to secure additional sources of credit support for one of the company's debt instruments. The filing said that developments on that front could affect its long-term debt and related items on its quarterly report. New Fortress also said that it needed more time to complete its unaudited results in the interim and have a public accounting firm complete a review of the interim report.
New Fortress Energy faces some big challenges
While it's not clear when New Fortress's quarterly report will be ready, the company did share that revenue from terminal operations in Q2 and across the first half of the year were down significantly compared to the respective prior-year periods. The energy specialist attributed the sales declines to the discontinuation of a power project in Puerto Rico, the sale of the company's Jamaican business, and softer cargo sales. Operating expenses across the first half of the year were also up significantly as a result of goodwill and asset impairments.
In July, New Fortress had seemingly been on track to secure a 15-year, $20 billion liquefied natural gas contract with Puerto Rico that would have provided substantial cash flows and helped the company to better manage its debt situation. The deal wound up hitting regulatory roadblocks, and Puerto Rico's negotiators ceased talks with the company after it refused to make concessions. Struggling with its debt load, New Fortress could really use a large new contract and source of capital.

NBA clears Boston Celtics' $6.1 billion sale to Bill Chisholm
A group headed by Bill Chisholm is set to take control of the Boston Celtics after the NBA Board of Governors unanimously approved the sale on Wednesday. The NBA wrote in a statement, 'The transaction is expected to close shortly.' The reported $6.1 billion valuation for the club makes it the second-largest sale price for a US sports franchise, behind the $10 billion valuation for the Los Angeles Lakers when Mark Walter purchased that team in June. Chisholm and his partners are buying at least 51 percent of the Celtics. The ownership stake will increase in 2028, according to the purchase contract, when Chisholm's group is scheduled to buy out the remaining minority shareholders at a $7.3 billion valuation. According to multiple media reports, Chisholm will take over as the Celtics' governor when the sale goes through. Outgoing owner Wyc Grousbeck is expected to serve as alternate governor and remain the CEO through 2028. Grousbeck will cede his role when he no longer has the required ownership stake of at least 15 percent. Chisholm, the co-founder and managing partner of the California-based private equity firm STG Partners, is a Massachusetts native and longtime Celtics fan. Grousbeck and the outgoing ownership group Boston Basketball Partners LLC purchased the Celtics for $360 million in 2002. During that group's tenure, the club won NBA titles in 2007-08 and 2023-24 – the latter representing Boston's league-record 18th championship.

Canadians Shun U.S., Ennismore's IPO Impact, and MSC's Carbon Cuts
Listen to the day's top travel stories in under four minutes every weekday. Good morning from Skift. It's Thursday, August 14. Here's what you need to know about the business of travel today. Canadians are continuing to shun travel to the U.S., writes Associate Editor Rashaad Jorden. The number of Canadians returning by car from the U.S. dropped 37% in July from last year, marking the seventh straight month of declines. July also saw a roughly 26% decrease in Canadians returning by air from the U.S. However, the number of Canadians returning from destinations other than the U.S. rose roughly 6%. Japan and Brazil, among other countries, have registered double-digit increases in Canadian visitors between January and June. Listen to This Podcast Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Youtube | RSS Next, Hospitality Reporter Luke Martin explains how a successful IPO for Ennismore could change how investors view lifestyle hotels. Martin writes, although Wall Street has long prioritized scale and cost efficiency, a successful IPO could elevate design, brand heat, and food-and-beverage revenue as credible sources of long-term value. If Ennismore performs well as a public company, Martin notes that would change how developers in the U.S. pick brands. However, Martin writes that if an Ennismore IPO were to stumble, that would reinforce the prevailing view that lifestyle belongs inside big hotel groups, not as a standalone business on the public markets. Finally, MSC Cruises, the third-largest cruise operator by passenger numbers, says it managed to cut greenhouse gas emissions last year. But the cruise industry still has a lot of work to reduce its massive carbon footprint, writes Climate Reporter Darin Graham. MSC Cruises highlighted in its latest climate report the tweaks and strategies that helped it cut emissions, including using AI-controlled heating and cooling systems. In addition, MSC's move to plug ships into the grid while in port enabled ships to run on electricity. However, MSC said its overall emissions will start climbing again without more transformative decarbonization solutions as its fleet grows. A report from maritime consultancy DNV warns that by 2030, the global production of carbon-neutral fuels for cruise ships won't match demand.

Pittsburgh Home and Garden Show organizers file lawsuit against Monroeville Home and Garden Show
The organizers of the Pittsburgh Home and Garden Show have filed a lawsuit against the company that runs the Monroeville Home and Garden show. The Pittsburgh Home and Garden Show organizers are suing the company over their use of a similar name. Organizers of the Pittsburgh Home and Garden Show say they've used the name for more than four decades, dating back to the 1980s and registered the service mark in 1991. The Pittsburgh show claims that Jace, who runs the Monroeville Home and Garden Show, have that show scheduled to take place September 5 at the Monroeville Convention Center. The Pittsburgh Home and Garden Show is arguing that the Monroeville show's use of a similar name is intentional, saying that it's meant to deceive, mislead, and cause confusion. The lawsuit says Jace called the Pittsburgh Home and Garden Show's lawyers a few days ago, saying that it won't stop using the term "home and garden show," adding that they would see each other in court. The Pittsburgh Home and Garden Show is seeking an injunction that would stop Monroeville's show from using the term "home and garden show" in addition to other things like attorney fees.
