Golar LNG (Buy, TP: USD35.00) - Turning on the distributions

There seems to be growing interest for Golar LNG’s fast-track and flexible FLNG offering with news of the recent MOU and several potential projects being widely discussed. However, it is still a waiting game for concrete news, and we believe the tighter LNG market this winter should create more visibility for Hilli and the next FLNG project for its MKII conversion. We continue to find the valuation too low when considering the potential, as its current NAV equates to USD24.1/share on our numbers. Thus, we reiterate our BUY and USD35 target price.
