 <p align="justify"><strong>Highlights and subsequent events</strong></p>  <ul><li>Golar LNG Limited (&#8220;Golar&#8221; or &#8220;the Company&#8221;) reports a Q1 2023 Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> of $84 million and a Net Loss attributable to Golar of $102 million, inclusive of non-cash mark-to-market charges<sup>1</sup> of $188 million.</li><li>Total Golar Cash<sup>1</sup> of $1 billion, inclusive of $113 million of restricted cash.</li><li>Based on strong balance sheet position and a solid operational cash flow outlook, Golar reinstates quarterly dividend and will distribute $0.25 per share for Q1 2023.</li><li>Approved share buyback program of up to $150 million.</li><li>Exited Cool Company Ltd. (&#8220;CoolCo&#8221;) investment by selling remaining 4.5 million shares raising net proceeds of $56 million. </li><li>Reacquired New Fortress Energy Inc. (&#8220;NFE&#8221;) interest in Golar Hilli LLC for 4.1 million NFE shares and $100 million in cash and exited NFE investment by selling our remaining 1.2 million NFE shares for net proceeds of $46 million.</li><li>Credit approval to improve terms of existing <em>Hilli </em>debt facility, reducing debt service cost. </li><li>High-graded FLNG conversion candidate by agreeing to sell 1977 built LNG carrier <em>Gandria</em> for net proceeds of $15 million and exercising option to acquire 2004 built LNG carrier <em>Fuji LNG</em> targeted for conversion to a 3.5mtpa MKII FLNG.</li><li>Signed Memorandum of Understanding (&#8220;MOU&#8221;) with Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (&#8220;NNPC&#8221;) for joint development of potential FLNG opportunities.</li><li>Repurchased $20 million of 2025 maturing Unsecured Bonds and secured approval for amendments to bond terms that increase financial flexibility.</li></ul>  <p align="justify"><strong>FLNG <em>Hilli</em>:</strong> FLNG <em>Hilli</em> maintained its strong operational performance with 100% economic uptime throughout the quarter. On March 15, 2023, Golar completed the repurchase of NFE's interest in the FLNG <em>Hilli,</em> increasing Golar&#8217;s annual run-rate Distributable Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> by approximately $70 million per year between January 1, 2023 and July 2026, and increasing our exposure to an anticipated re-contracting upside in the world&#8217;s best performing FLNG. Due to lower Brent oil and Dutch Title Transfer Facility (&#8220;TTF&#8221;) prices, Q1 2023 Distributable Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> from FLNG <em>Hilli</em> decreased by $20 million from $114 million in Q4 2022 to $94 million in Q1 2023, of which Golar&#8217;s increased share was $88 million, compared to $86 million in Q4 2022. </p>  <p align="justify">In January 2023, Golar effectively unwound its 2023 and 2024 TTF hedges, locking in approximately $140 million of TTF hedged Distributable Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> and re-gaining full market exposure to its TTF linked production. For the remainder of 2023 and 2024, the locked in TTF Distributable Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup>, which will be additional to Golar&#8217;s share of tolling fees and market linked Brent oil and TTF fee exposure, will be allocated as follows:</p>  <ul><li style="list-style:none;"> <ul><li>April-December 2023: 100% of TTF linked production unwound securing approximately $68 million of Distributable Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> equivalent to approximately $23 million for each of quarters 2, 3 and 4; and</li><li>Full year 2024: 50% of TTF linked production unwound securing approximately $49 million of Distributable Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> equivalent to approximately $12 million per quarter in 2024.</li></ul> </li></ul>  <p align="justify">The FLNG <em>Hilli</em> sale and leaseback facility lenders have agreed to reduce the facility margin and extend the amortization profile and duration. Following the credit approved changes, FLNG <em>Hilli&#8217;s</em> annual debt service cost will reduce from a current 2023 level of around $126 million to around $93 million. Golar&#8217;s 94.6% share of this amounts to $88 million, of which $40 million is principal and $48 million is interest. The new terms extend the facility maturity from 2028 to 2033, increasing financial flexibility in connection with re-contracting of the existing July 2026 expiring contract with Perenco. Subject to execution of customary documentation, the new terms are expected to become effective in Q3 2023.</p>  <p align="justify"><strong>FLNG <em>Gimi</em>:</strong> FLNG <em>Gimi </em>is now 94% technically complete. The yard departure date for FLNG <em>Gimi</em> has been postponed from 1H 2023 to Q3 2023 to allow for vessel completion and testing and a greater proportion of commissioning work to be performed in Singapore where requisite skills and resources are more accessible. The updated sail away timing is not expected to impact first feed gas on the Tortue project. As a result of project delays, pre-commissioning contractual cash flows under the Lease and Operate Agreement (&#8220;LOA&#8221;) have started. A LOA contract interpretation dispute regarding parts of these pre-commissioning contractual cash flows currently exists between Golar and BP, regarding payments due from BP to Golar as a result of the delays previously announced in 2020 related to force majeure claims. The dispute does not impact wider execution of the 20-year project that is expected to unlock around $3 billion of Adjusted EBITDA Backlog<sup>1</sup> to Golar, equivalent to Annual Adjusted EBITDA<sup>1</sup> of around $151 million.</p>  <p align="justify"><strong>FLNG business development</strong>: Golar signed a MOU with NNPC for joint development of FLNG opportunities in Nigeria. Following the signing of the MOU, both parties have allocated significant resources to initially develop a named gas field for a potential FLNG project. Material technical and commercial progress has been made. The MOU has a 5-year duration, with both parties&#8217; ambition to explore potential for multiple FLNG projects to be deployed on proven stranded and associated gas fields in Nigeria.</p>  <p align="justify">NNPC is Africa&#8217;s largest oil producer and Nigeria&#8217;s most important energy stakeholder with a strategy to expand gas exports. Nigeria&#8217;s gas specifications and met-ocean conditions are ideally suited to Golar&#8217;s FLNG solutions.</p>  <p align="justify">Recent months have seen a significant increase in interest and momentum for re-contracting alternatives for FLNG<em> Hilli</em>. Several promising projects that have more attractive economics than the current contract are now being discussed. Golar continues to target commercial structures aligned with gas resource owners, focusing on attractive break-even production costs relative to competing global LNG export projects, with upside in commodity price linkage. With its leading operational track record and near-term availability, FLNG<em> Hilli</em> is uniquely positioned to monetize gas reserves. A fully utilized FLNG<em> Hilli</em> has annual revenue potential in excess of $1 billion based on current LNG forward curves, to be shared between gas resource owners and Golar. Concluding a new charter for FLNG<em> Hilli</em> is therefore a commercial priority for the company.</p>  <p align="justify">As a result of increasing momentum for new FLNG opportunities, Golar high-graded its FLNG conversion candidate by selling the <em>Gandria</em> and exercising its option to acquire the 148,000cbm moss design carrier <em>Fuji LNG</em> targeted for the MKII FLNG conversion project. Sale of the <em>Gandria</em> for net proceeds of $15 million is subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions and is expected to complete in the second half of 2023. Of the $73 million purchase price balance for <em>Fuji LNG</em>, $11 million will be paid in Q2 2023 with the remainder in early 2024, when Golar will take delivery of the vessel. With key long-lead items on order, focus is now on a yard EPC contract and financing. A final investment decision on the MKII project is linked to securing attractive finance and further visibility on a charter, with strong progress on both fronts during the quarter.</p>  <p align="justify"><strong>FSRU:</strong> Fees earned in respect of the Development Agreement to assist Snam with FSRU <em>Tundra</em>&#8217;<em>s</em> drydocking, site commissioning and hook-up amounted to $7 million in Q1 2023. Costs associated with the above are recognized as incurred and amounted to $18 million in Q1 2023, included in project development expenses.</p>  <p align="justify"><strong>Financial Summary</strong></p> <table style="width:664;

Billing of this component is based on a three-month look-back at average Brent Crude prices. A $20 million realized gain on the oil derivative instrument was recorded in Q1 2023. Golar has an effective 89.1% interest in these earnings. A Q1 2023 realized gain of $18 million was also recognized in respect of fees for the TTF linked production. Golar has an effective 89.4% interest in these earnings. A $19 million realized gain (100% of which is attributable to Golar) on the hedged component of the quarter&#8217;s TTF linked earnings was also recognized during the quarter.

The mark-to-market fair value of the FLNG <em>Hilli</em> TTF natural gas derivative asset decreased by $74 million during the quarter with a corresponding unrealized loss of the same amount recognized in the unaudited statement of operations. A $1 million unrealized loss in respect of the hedged portion of the Q1 2023 TTF linked FLNG <em>Hilli</em> production was also recognized during the quarter. Collectively this resulted in a $115 million Q1 2023 unrealized loss on oil and gas derivative instruments.</p>  <p align="justify">During Q1 2023 Golar sold 1.2 million of its 5.3 million NFE shares and repurchased NFE&#8217;s interest in FLNG <em>Hilli </em>using its remaining 4.1 million NFE shares as part of the purchase price consideration. A decrease in the NFE share price between January 1, 2023 and March 15, 2023, when Golar&#8217;s re-acquisition of NFE&#8217;s interest in FLNG <em>Hilli</em> closed, resulted in the recognition of a Q1 2023 realized mark to market loss of $62 million. The fair value of these shares had decreased from $42.42 per share as of December 31, 2022 to $28.51 on March 15, 2023. Together with $11 million of dividend income from NFE, this collectively amounted to $51 million of other non-operating losses for the quarter.</p>  <p align="justify"><em>Balance Sheet and Liquidity:</em></p>  <p align="justify">As of March 31, 2023, Total Golar Cash<sup>1</sup> was $1.0 billion, comprised of $889 million of cash and cash equivalents and $113 million of restricted cash.

Having closed the repurchase of NFE&#8217;s interest in FLNG <em>Hilli</em> and assumed NFE&#8217;s share of <em>Hilli</em> debt, Golar&#8217;s share of Contractual Debt<sup>1 </sup>has increased to $1,152 million as of March 31, 2023. Deducting Total Golar Cash<sup>1</sup> of $1.0 billion from Golar&#8217;s share of Contractual Debt<sup>1</sup> of $1,152 million&#160; leaves debt of $152 million. </p>  <p align="justify">During Q1 2023, Golar repurchased $4 million of the $300 million Unsecured Bonds, reducing the outstanding balance to $155 million as of March 31, 2023. In April, a further $16 million of the Unsecured Bonds were repurchased, reducing the outstanding balance to $139 million. On May 25, 2023, in return for a 3.75% fee, the remaining bondholders agreed to amend certain bond terms in order to allow for the earlier payment of dividends and for additional share buybacks.</p>  <p align="justify">Inclusive of $16 million of capitalized interest, $42 million was invested in FLNG <em>Gimi</em> during the quarter, with the total FLNG <em>Gimi</em> Asset under development balance as at March 31, 2023 amounting to $1.2 billion. Of this, $545 million was drawn against the $700 million debt facility secured by FLNG <em>Gimi</em>. Both the investment and debt drawn to date are reported on a 100% basis. Golar&#8217;s share of remaining capital expenditure to be funded out of equity, net of the Company&#8217;s share of remaining undrawn debt amounts to $181 million. Subsequent to the quarter end, a further $75 million was drawn down on the debt facility which now stands at $620 million. </p>  <p align="justify">Expenditure on long-lead items and engineering services for the MKII FLNG amounted to $75 million as of March 31, 2023, and is included in other non-current assets. </p>  <p align="justify"><em>Corporate and Other Matters:</em></p>  <p align="justify">As at March 31, 2023, Golar had 107.4 million shares issued and outstanding. There were also 1.4 million outstanding stock options with an average price of $15.74, 0.2 million unvested restricted stock units, and 0.04 million unvested performance stock units awarded. </p>  <p align="justify">The Board of Directors has authorized a new share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to $150 million of Golar&#8217;s outstanding stock. The Company intends to opportunistically repurchase shares from time to time for cash in open market transactions or in privately-negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable federal securities laws. Share repurchases will be executed only during periods where the executive team and the Board of Directors are not aware of material inside information that would likely affect a seller&#8217;s decision to sell, with the timing and the amount of any repurchases being determined by an evaluation of market conditions, capital allocation alternatives, and other factors. </p>  <p align="justify">Golar&#8217;s Board of Directors has also approved a total dividend of $0.25 per share in respect of Q1 2023 to be paid on June 16, 2023.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business, enable comparison of financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in operating our business and measuring our performance.</p>  <p align="justify">This report also contains certain forward-looking non-GAAP measures for which we are unable to provide a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP financial measures because certain information needed to reconcile those non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures is dependent on future events some of which our outside of our control, such as oil and gas prices and exchange rates, as such items may be significant. Non-GAAP measures in respect of future events which cannot be reconciled to the most comparable GAAP financial measure are calculated in a manner which is consistent with the accounting policies applied to Golar&#8217;s unaudited consolidated financial statements.</p>  <p align="justify">These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP measures are not uniformly defined by all companies, and may not be comparable with similarly titled measures and disclosures used by other companies. The reconciliations as at March 31, 2023, from these results should be carefully evaluated.</p> <table style="width:664; border-collapse:collapse !important;;border-collapse: collapse; "><tr><td style="width:101.00px;;border-top: solid black 1pt ; border-bottom: solid black 1pt ; border-left: solid black 1pt ; "><strong>Non-GAAP measure </strong></td><td style="width:119.00px;;border-top: solid black 1pt ; border-bottom: solid black 1pt ; border-left: solid black 1pt ; "><strong>Closest equivalent US GAAP measure </strong></td><td style="width:211.00px;;border-top: solid black 1pt ; border-bottom: solid black 1pt ; border-left: solid black 1pt ; "><strong>Adjustments to reconcile to primary financial statements prepared under US GAAP </strong></td><td style="width:233.00px;;border-top: solid black 1pt ; border-right: solid black 1pt ; border-bottom: solid black 1pt ; border-left: solid black 1pt ; text-align: justify ;  vertical-align: middle; "><strong>Rationale for adjustments </strong></td></tr><tr><td colspan="4" style="width:664.00px;;border-right: solid black 1pt ; border-bottom: solid black 1pt ; border-left: solid black 1pt ; "><strong>Performance measures</strong></td></tr><tr><td style="width:101.00px;;border-left: solid black 1pt ; vertical-align: top ; "><strong><em>Adjusted EBITDA</em></strong></td><td style="width:119.00px;;border-left: solid black 1pt ; vertical-align: top ; ">Net income/(loss)</td><td style="width:211.00px;;border-left: solid black 1pt ; vertical-align: top ; ">&#160;+/- Income taxes<br >&#160;+ Depreciation and amortization<br >&#160;+/- Unrealized (gain)/loss on oil and gas derivative instruments<br >+/- Other non-operating (income)/losses<br >+/- Net financial (income)/expense<br >+/- Net (income)/losses from equity method investments<br >+/- Net loss/(income) from discontinued operations <br ><br >&#160;</td><td style="width:233.00px;;border-right: solid black 1pt ; border-left: solid black 1pt ; vertical-align: top ; ">Increases the comparability of total business performance from period to period and against the performance of other companies by excluding the results of our equity investments, removing the impact of unrealized movements on embedded derivatives, depreciation, financing costs, tax items and discontinued operations.</td></tr><tr><td style="width:101.00px;;border-top: solid black 1pt ; border-bottom: solid black 1pt ; border-left: solid black 1pt ; vertical-align: top ; "><strong><em>Distributable Adjusted EBITDA</em></strong></td><td style="width:119.00px;;border-top: solid black 1pt ; border-bottom: solid black 1pt ; border-left: solid black 1pt ; vertical-align: top ; ">Net income/(loss)</td><td style="width:211.00px;;border-top: solid black 1pt ; border-bottom: solid black 1pt ; border-left: solid black 1pt ; vertical-align: top ; ">&#160;+/- Income taxes<br >&#160;+ Depreciation and amortization<br >&#160;+/- Unrealized (gain)/loss on oil and gas derivative instruments<br >+/- Other non-operating (income)/losses<br >+/- Net financial (income)/expense<br >+/- Net (income)/losses from equity method investments<br >+/- Net loss/(income) from discontinued operations <br >- Amortization of deferred commissioning period revenue<br >- Amortization of Day 1 gains<br >- Accrued overproduction revenue<br >+ Overproduction revenue received<br >- Accrued underutilization adjustment</td><td style="width:233.00px;;border-top: solid black 1pt ; border-right: solid black 1pt ; border-bottom: solid black 1pt ; border-left: solid black 1pt ; vertical-align: top ; ">Increases the comparability of our operational FLNG, Hilli from period to period and against the performance of other companies by removing the non-distributable income of Hilli, project development costs and the operating costs of the <em>Gandria</em> and <em>Gimi.</em> <br ><br >&#160;</td></tr><tr><td colspan="4" style="width:664.00px;;border-right: solid black 1pt ; border-bottom: solid black 1pt ; border-left: solid black 1pt ; "><strong>Liquidity measures</strong></td></tr><tr><td style="width:101.00px;;border-bottom: solid black 1pt ; border-left: solid black 1pt ; vertical-align: top ; "><strong><em>Contractual debt <sup>(1)</sup></em></strong></td><td style="width:119.00px;;border-bottom: solid black 1pt ; border-left: solid black 1pt ; vertical-align: top ; ">Total debt (current and non-current), net of deferred finance charges</td><td style="width:211.00px;;border-bottom: solid black 1pt ; border-left: solid black 1pt ; vertical-align: top ; ">'+/- Debt within liabilities held for sale net of deferred finance charges<br >+/-VIE consolidation adjustments<br >+/-Deferred finance charges<br >+/-Deferred finance charges within liabilities held for sale</td><td style="width:233.00px;;border-right: solid black 1pt ; border-bottom: solid black 1pt ; border-left: solid black 1pt ; vertical-align: top ; ">During the year, we consolidate a lessor VIE for our <em>Hilli</em> sale and leaseback facility.

All statements, other than statements of historical facts, that address activities and events that will, should, could or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements.

These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and are difficult to predict.

You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this press release. Unless legally required, Golar undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Delays to contracted deliveries to sites could result in incremental costs to both parties to the LOA, delay commissioning works and the unlocking of FLNG <em>Gimi</em> adjusted EBITDA backlog<sup>1</sup>;</li><li>that an attractive deployment opportunity, or any of the opportunities under discussion for the Mark II FLNG (&#8220;MKII&#8221;), one of our floating liquefaction natural gas vessel (&#8220;FLNG&#8221;) designs, will be converted into a suitable contract. Failure to do this in a timely manner or at all could expose us to losses on our investments in long-lead items and engineering services to date. Assuming a satisfactory contract is secured, changes in project capital expenditures, foreign exchange and commodity price volatility could have a material impact on the expected magnitude and timing of our return on investment;</li><li>our ability to close the sale of the liquefied natural gas (&#8220;LNG&#8221;) carrier <em>Gandria</em> on a timely basis or complete the acquisition of LNG carrier <em>Fuji LNG</em> on a timely basis or at all;</li><li>continuing uncertainty resulting from potential future claims from our counterparties of purported force majeure under contractual arrangements, including but not limited to our construction projects (including the GTA Project) and other contracts to which we are a party;</li><li>failure of shipyards to comply with delivery schedules or performance specifications on a timely basis or at all;</li><li>failure of our contract counterparties to comply with their agreements with us or other key project stakeholders;</li><li>our inability to expand our FLNG portfolio through our innovative FLNG growth strategy;</li><li>our ability to meet our obligations under the liquefaction tolling agreement (the &#8220;LTA&#8221;) entered into in connection with the <em>Hilli Episeyo</em> (&#8220;FLNG <em>Hilli</em>&#8221;);</li><li>our expectation that we make up the 2022 production shortfall pursuant to the LTA in 2023.
