Golar LNG Limited (“Golar”) is pleased to announce that FLNG Gimi completed the offload of its first full LNG cargo to the LNG carrier British Sponsor. This introduces Mauritania and Senegal to the international gas market and triggers the final pre-Commercial Operations Date milestone bonus payment to Golar under the terms of the commercial reset agreed in August 2024. Commissioning remains on track for a Q2 2025 Commercial Operations Date (“COD”). COD triggers the start of the 20-year Lease and Operate Agreement that unlocks the equivalent of around $3 billion of Adjusted EBITDA backlog (Golar's share) and recognition of contractual payments comprised of capital and operating elements in both the balance sheet and income statement.
Market sentiment was surprisingly optimistic, despite political developments, with the UP World LNG Shipping Index gaining 3.03% and several companies achieving double-digit gains. Strong trading volumes in the U.S. and Japan drove significant price movements, with Golar LNG leading the surge at 21.4%. Despite some declines in major gas-oil firms, the overall outlook remains positive due to growing LNG demand and potential new long-term contracts.
Golar LNG (GLNG) was a big mover last session on higher-than-average trading volume. The latest trend in earnings estimate revisions might not help the stock continue moving higher in the near term.
Golar LNG is poised for significant EBITDA growth, as the firm brings Gimi onstream with BP. Golar may realize incremental EBITDA growth through commodity-linked agreements. Golar's transition to a pure FLNG company through its strategic asset sales, positions it for higher-margin growth through long-term, 20-year FLNG contracts. Despite potential risks from high capital investments for new FLNG vessels, Golar's long-term contracts and market positioning provide durability and more visibility into future earnings.
