Golar LNG Limited (NASDAQ: GLNG) (“Golar” or the “Company”) today announced its Board of Directors has initiated a formal process to evaluate strategic alternatives for the Company. As previewed on the 4th Quarter 2025 results, this review aims to accelerate the FLNG growth pipeline and maximize shareholder value, reflecting Golar’s successful transition into a high-growth, pure-play Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG) company. To support this process, the Company has appointed Goldman Sachs International as its financial advisor.
The strategic review will include a comprehensive evaluation of the Company’s platform, including its industry-leading FLNG technology, long-term contract backlog, and growth pipeline. Potential alternatives to be explored include, but are not limited to, a sale of the Company, a merger or other business combination, divestiture of assets, or further optimization of the corporate structure. The Company will target solutions that unlock shareholder value and enable faster roll-out of Golar’s FLNG growth pipeline.
The Company notes there is no set timetable for the conclusion of this strategic review, and there can be no assurance that the process will result in any specific transaction or other strategic outcome. The company will provide no additional comment or commentary until the review is completed.
