Golar LNG Limited announces strategic review to maximize stakeholder value and appoints Goldman Sachs as financial advisor

25 Mar 2026 23:08 CET

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.
