Golar LNG Limited Closes Offering of $575 Million of 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2030 and Repurchase of 2.5 Million Common Shares

Hamilton, Bermuda, July 1, 2025 -- Golar LNG Limited (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: GLNG) announced today the closing of its previously announced offering of 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2030 (the “Notes”), in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company sold $575 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes, including $75 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes sold pursuant to the initial purchasers’ exercise in full of their 30-day option to purchase additional Notes in connection with the offering.

The Notes are senior, unsecured obligations of the Company, bear interest at a rate of 2.75% per annum, are payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2025, 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 for the Notes initially equals 17.3834 common shares per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes, which is 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 of $41.09 on June 25, 2025, and is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events.

The Company used a portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes to repurchase 2.5 million of the Company’s common shares in connection with the offering of the Notes and intends to cancel these shares, reducing the total outstanding share count to 102.3 million shares. The Company plans to use the remaining net proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, future growth investments including a contemplated fourth FLNG unit, MKII FLNG conversion costs, FLNG Hilli redeployment costs, repaying indebtedness, and funding working capital and capital expenditures.
