Highlights and subsequent events
FLNG Hilli: Continued market leading uptime during the quarter, 137 cargoes offloaded to date since contract start up in 2018 in Cameroon. Upon completion of the current charter in July 2026, Hilli is scheduled to enter a yard in the third quarter of 2026 for upgrades and life extension work before arriving in Argentina for its 20-year charter for SESA during Q2 2027. Yard selection for the redeployment related upgrade and modification works is expected within Q3 2025. The scope for the yard stay includes repair, life extension modifications, winterization of the vessel and installation of a new soft-yoke mooring system.
The key commercial terms for the 20-year charter agreement include net charter hire to Golar of \$285 million per year, a total of \$5.7 billion over the 20-year term. In addition Hilli will make a commodity linked FLNG tariff component of 25% of FOB prices in excess of \$8/MMBtu. This will add approximately \$30 million of potential upside to Golar for every US dollar the achieved FOB price is above the reference price of \$8/MMBtu. Hilli will be moored in the San Matías Gulf in Argentina.
Having concluded the 20-year charter agreement in Argentina, we will seek to optimize the asset level debt on Hilli.
FLNG Gimi: In June 2025, Gimi successfully achieved COD, marking the commencement of the 20 year lease term with BP under the Lease and Operate Agreement. Gimi is now in the process of offloading its 8th cargo. The vessel is operating well and has transitioned into its contractual post COD appraisal period during which equipment will be tuned to optimize performance as operations and interfaces with customer infrastructure normalize. Golar owns 70% of Gimi, and Golar's share of the net earnings backlog for the contract duration is expected to be approximately \$3 billion.
Stakeholder approvals for the \$1.2 billion sale and leaseback facility have taken longer than expected. This allows for potential alternative financing optimization for debt refinancing of Gimi including a bank facility or secured bonds.
MKII FLNG 3.5 MTPA conversion: Conversion work on the \$2.2 billion MKII FLNG is proceeding to schedule. As of June 30, 2025, Golar has spent \$0.8 billion on this project, all of which is currently equity funded. The MKII FLNG is expected to be delivered in Q4 2027.
On August 6, 2025, SESA reached FID for the charter of Golar's 3.5 MTPA MKII FLNG, as contemplated under the terms of the definitive agreements executed by SESA and Golar in May 2025. The MKII charter remains subject to regulatory conditions precedent and satisfaction of other customary closing conditions, expected within 2025.
The key commercial terms for the 20-year charter agreement include net charter hire to Golar of \$400 million per year, equal to \$8 billion over the charter period. In addition the MKII FLNG charter includes a commodity linked tariff component of 25% of FOB prices in excess of \$8/MMBtu. This will add approximately \$40 million of potential upside to Golar for every US dollar the achieved FOB price is above the reference price of \$8/MMBtu. The MKII FLNG, currently under conversion in China, will sail to Argentina following her redelivery, with contract start-up expected during 2028. The MKII FLNG will be moored in the San Matías Gulf near the Hilli. Combined, the two units have a nameplate capacity of 5.95MTPA, and the project expects to benefit from significant operational efficiencies and synergies from two FLNGs in the same area.
Southern Energy: SESA is a company formed to enable LNG exports from Argentina. SESA is owned by a consortium of leading Argentinian gas producers including Pan American Energy (30%), YPF (25%), Pampa Energia (20%) and Harbour Energy (15%), as well as Golar (10%).
Golar's 10% ownership of SESA provides additional commodity exposure. With both FLNG's operational, the 10% equity stake equates to approximately \$28 million in annual commodity exposure to Golar for every US dollar/MMBtu change in achieved FOB prices above or below SESA's cash break even.
With the combination of the fixed charter hire, operating expenses pass through, commodity exposure for FOB prices above \$8/MMBtu and Golar's 10% shareholding in SESA, Golar has secured an attractive contracted cash flow with highly attractive risk-reward in commodity linked earnings. For every US dollar FOB price above \$8/MMBtu, Golar's total commodity upside is approximately \$100 million, versus approximately \$28 million in downside for every US dollar/MMBtu that realized FOB prices are below SESA's cash break even.
Business development: With the existing fleet committed to 20-year charters, we have increased focus on securing attractive FLNG growth units. We are working with three prospective shipyards for different FLNG designs (MKI, MKII and MKIII with liquefaction capacities ranging from 2.0 to 5.4 MTPA) to obtain updated EPC price and delivery schedules. In order to secure attractive delivery we plan to enter into slot reservations for long lead equipment within Q3 2025.
We see increasing industry recognition of the benefits of FLNG solutions versus land-based liquefaction terminals, driven by the proven track record of the fleet on the water, lower capex, shorter construction time and increased flexibility. This in turn drives prospective charter interest in our FLNG solutions. Golar is the only proven provider of FLNG as a service. Based on the increasing demand for FLNG to monetize stranded, associated and flared or re-injected gas reserves, we plan to order our next FLNG before locking in a charter to drive competitive tension and terms for our next FLNG project. This is the same approach successfully executed for the FLNG Hilli and for the MKII FLNG. Based on yard availability we are confident that a contemplated 4th Golar FLNG will be the only open and available FLNG capacity within this decade.
We expect to decide on vessel design for our fourth FLNG once final EPC prices and delivery schedules are obtained. We are in parallel working on the commercial pipeline to match commercial opportunities to the contemplated fleet addition. We also expect that a 5th unit could follow shortly after a 4th unit has been ordered and chartered.
Our fully delivered net debt to Adjusted EBITDA1 stands at around 3x, and we expect to fund planned FLNG fleet growth with proceeds from debt associated with the conclusion of long-term charters for our existing fleet.
Corporate/Other: In June we raised \$575 million of convertible bonds. As part of the convertible bond process we bought back 2.5 million shares for \$103 million, at a share price of \$41.09 per share. The Notes were priced at 2.75% fixed coupon with a 40% premium. Inclusive of the buyback the Notes are net dilutive to our share count prior to the Notes offering if our share price exceeds \$76.71 at maturity in December 2030, before adjusting for any dividends paid in the period.
Operating revenues and costs under corporate and other items are comprised of two legacy FSRU operate and maintain agreements in respect of Italis LNG and LNG Croatia, both of which are expected to end in Q4 2025.
Shares and dividends: 102.3 million shares are issued and outstanding as of June 30, 2025, inclusive of the 2.5 million shares repurchased and cancelled in connection with the June 2025 convertible senior notes offering. Golar's Board of Directors approved a total Q2 2025 dividend of \$0.25 per share to be paid on or around September 2, 2025. The record date will be August 26, 2025.
On COD the FLNG Gimi asset under development was de-recognized, and a sales-type lease receivable was recognized in the balance sheet. The accounting for a sales-type lease is different to Golar's other commercial agreements, which have typically been accounted for as operating leases. In order to compare the performance of the FLNG Gimi with our wider business, management has determined that
it will measure the performance of the FLNG Gimi sales-type lease based on Adjusted EBITDA1, modified by sales-type lease receivable in excess of interest income. This approach allows Golar to review the economic results of FLNG Gimi in a format consistent with FLNG Hilli.

(2)The line item "Realized and unrealized (loss)/gain on oil and gas derivative instruments" in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations relates to income from the Hilli Liquefaction Tolling Agreement ("LTA") and the natural gas derivative which is split into: "Realized gain on oil and gas derivative instruments" and "Unrealized (loss)/gain on oil and gas derivative instruments".
Golar reports today Q2 2025 net income of \$31 million, before non-controlling interests, inclusive of \$9 million of non-cash items1 , comprised of:
The Brent oil linked component of FLNG Hilli's fees generates additional annual cash of approximately \$3.1 million for every dollar increase in Brent Crude prices between \$60 per barrel and the contractual ceiling. Billing of this component is based on a three-month look-back at average Brent Crude prices. During Q2 2025, we recognized a total of \$16 million of realized gains on FLNG Hilli's oil and gas derivative instruments, comprised of a:
We also recognized \$35 million of non-cash losses in relation to FLNG Hilli's oil and gas derivative assets, with corresponding changes in the fair value in its constituent parts recognized on our unaudited consolidated statement of operations as follows:
During June 2025 Golar closed the offering of \$575 million of 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030. The Notes are senior, unsecured obligations of the Company, bear interest at a rate of 2.75% per annum, mature on December 15, 2030, and are convertible into the Company's common shares, cash, or a combination of shares and cash, at the Company's election. The conversion rate was equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately \$57.53 per common share, representing an initial conversion premium of approximately 40% over the closing price of the Company's common shares at the time of issuance. Of the net proceeds, \$103 million was used to repurchase 2.5 million of the Company's common shares on June 30, 2025.
As of June 30, 2025, Total Golar Cash1 was \$891 million, comprised of \$783 million of cash and cash equivalents and \$108 million of restricted cash.
Golar's share of Contractual Debt1 as of June 30, 2025 is \$2,049 million. Deducting Total Golar Cash1 of \$891 million from Golar's share of Contractual Debt1 leaves a net debt position of \$1,158 million.
Assets under development amounts to \$0.9 billion, all of which relates to the MK II FLNG Fuji conversion project. Upon COD in June 2025, the FLNG Gimi asset under development was derecognized, with a sales type lease receivable recognized on the balance sheet in its place.
In addition to disclosing financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP), this earnings release and the associated investor presentation contains references to the non-GAAP financial measures which are included in the table below. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business, enable comparison of financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in operating our business and measuring our performance.
This report also contains certain forward-looking non-GAAP measures for which we are unable to provide a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP financial measures because certain information needed to reconcile those non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures is dependent on future events some of which are outside of our control, such as oil and gas prices and exchange rates, as such items may be significant. Non-GAAP measures in respect of future events which cannot be reconciled to the most comparable GAAP financial measure are calculated in a manner which
is consistent with the accounting policies applied to Golar's unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements.
These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures and financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP measures are not uniformly defined by all companies and may not be comparable with similarly titled measures and disclosures used by other companies. The reconciliations as at June 30, 2025 and for the six months ended June 30, 2025, from these results should be carefully evaluated.

We consolidate a lessor VIE for our sale and leaseback facility. This means that on consolidation, we include restricted cash held by the lessor VIE. Total Golar Cash represents our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash and short-term deposits (current and non-current) before consolidating the lessor VIE. Management believe that this measure enables investors and users of our financial statements to assess our liquidity and aids comparability with our competitors. |
(1) Please refer to reconciliation below for Golar's share of contractual debt
Adjusted EBITDA backlog (also referred to as "earnings backlog"): This is a non-GAAP financial measure and represents the share of contracted fee income for executed contracts or agreements subject to conditions precedent, less forecasted operating expenses for these contracts/agreements. Adjusted EBITDA backlog should not be considered as an alternative to net income / (loss) or any other measure of our financial performance calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Non-cash items: Non-cash items comprised of impairment of long-lived assets, release of prior year contract underutilization liability, MTM movements on our TTF and Brent oil linked derivatives, listed equity securities and interest rate swaps ("IRS") which relate to the unrealized component of the gains/(losses) on oil and gas derivative instruments, unrealized MTM (losses)/gains on investment in listed equity securities, gains or losses on derivative instruments net and gains or losses on recognition of sales type lease in our unaudited consolidated statement of operations.
FLNG tariff, net: This is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure that represents the total cash inflow and economic performance generated by our FLNGs during a given period. It is calculated by taking the total amount invoiced for FLNG services, including liquefaction services revenue, sales-type lease revenue, vessel management fees and other revenue and realized gains on oil and gas derivative instruments, adjusted for the amortization of deferred commissioning period revenue, Day 1 gains (deferred revenues) and deferred contractual payments received prior to COD under the LOA that is allocated to the non-lease component ("deferred pre-COD O&M service revenue"), the unwinding of liquidated damages, the accretion of unguaranteed residual value and the accruals and other timing related items including tax receipt, underutilization, overproduction revenue and demurrage cost. FLNG tariff, net is intended to enhance the comparability of our FLNG performance across periods and with other operational FLNGs in the industry. FLNG tariff, net should not be considered as an alternative to total operating revenue of the FLNG segment or any other performance measure of our financial performance calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
