A purchase agreement between Commonwealth LNG and Japan’s top liquefied natural gas buyer, Jera Co. , has been terminated, according to a document filed with the US Department of Energy. Jera and Commonwealth entered the long-term agreement last year, which would’ve seen the proposed Louisiana-based export project supply 1 million tons of LNG annually for 20 years. The notification of the deal’s termination was dated April 1 and filed on behalf of Commonwealth Energy. The agreement was terminated effective March 3, the letter said, without giving a reason. Spokespeople for Commonwealth LNG and Jera did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The planned Commonwealth LNG project is under development by private equity-backed Kimmeridge Energy Management LLC, whose managing partner Ben Dell said last week that a final investment decision is expected in April. The project has other long-term offtake agreements with purchasers including Glencore Plc and Malaysia’s Petronas .

David Paul Morris | Bloomberg | Getty Images Microsoft has made greater inroads with sales of its Copilot artificial intelligence add-on for business clients after facing criticism for relatively low adoption in recent months, executive Judson Althoff told employees on Thursday. Software stocks including Microsoft have come down this year on fears that generative AI models could heighten competition. Microsoft, whose stock sunk 23% in the first quarter, has ramped up spending on data centers for cloud customers such as OpenAI, and investors are seeking signs that products enhanced with AI models will boost revenue and profitability. In January, Microsoft said it had racked up 15 million seats for the Microsoft 365 Copilot that sits atop commercial productivity software subscriptions, representing 3% of seats for the standard bundles. Microsoft 365 corporate users have access to a Copilot Chat assistant with limited features. CEO Satya Nadella told analysts on an earnings call that the company had "multiples more enterprise chat users." The $30-per-month Microsoft 365 Copilot became widely available in 2023, and since then, many analysts have described adoption as nascent . After the January disclosure, analysts at UBS, who recommend buying Microsoft shares, said they had expected more subscribers. Sellers had been trying to land paid Microsoft 365 Copilot seats and get everyone else using Copilot Chat, but Microsoft revamped its strategy after receiving feedback from analysts on the results, Althoff, CEO of the company's commercial business, said in a town hall meeting, according to a transcript that CNBC reviewed. Microsoft did not immediately have a comment. Bloomberg reported earlier on the remarks. Althoff said he and Amy Hood, Microsoft's finance chief, issued bold...
