Golar LNG ( (GLNG) ) has shared an announcement.

Golar LNG reported preliminary results for the fourth quarter and full year 2025 on February 25, 2026, highlighting a sharp acceleration in growth. Net income attributable to Golar rose to $10 million in Q4 2025 and $66 million for 2025, with total operating revenues doubling year-on-year in the quarter and adjusted EBITDA climbing to $91 million in Q4 and $265 million for the year.

Operationally, FLNG Hilli exceeded its 2025 production target, while FLNG Gimi outperformed contractual volumes and often ran above nameplate capacity, underscoring the company’s operational reliability. Golar advanced its growth pipeline with on-time, on-budget MKII construction, satisfaction of all conditions for a 20-year MKII FLNG contract with Argentina’s Southern Energy S.A., and preparations to order a fourth FLNG unit once long-term commercial terms are secured.

The company also executed major balance sheet actions in 2025, closing and drawing a $1.2 billion secured facility for FLNG Gimi, issuing $500 million of five-year senior unsecured notes in the U.S. bond market, and repaying $190 million of 2021 unsecured bonds at maturity. Golar returned capital via the repurchase and cancellation of 1.1 million shares in Q4 under its buyback program and declared a quarterly dividend of $0.25 per share, reinforcing its confidence in cash generation and long-term FLNG backlog, which management quantified at about $14 billion in adjusted EBITDA over coming decades.
