(1) The liquefaction tolling agreement (the “LTA”) entered into in connection with the FLNG Hilli bills at a base rate when the oil prices are at or below $60 per barrel, with an increased rate when prices exceed $60 per barrel. The oil price above the base rate is recognized as a derivative and included in “Realized and unrealized (loss)/gain on oil and gas derivative instruments” in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations (note 7).

(2) Day 1 gains result from amount established on the initial recognition of the FLNG Hillis oil derivative instrument embedded in the LTA and the FLNG Hillis gas derivative instruments pursuant to the third amendment to the LTA (“LTA Amendment 3”) (notes 17 and 18). These amounts were deferred on initial recognition and amortized evenly over the contract term.

(3) In 2021, we entered into LTA Amendment 3 to increase the FLNG Hilli's annual contracted capacity by 0.2 million tonnes for 2022. In July 2022, Perenco Cameroon S.A. (“Perenco”) and Société Nationale des Hydrocarbures (“SNH”), (together, the “Customer”) exercised its option for an additional 0.2 million tonnes (out of 0.4 million tonnes) from January 2023 until the end of the LTA, increasing the annual base capacity to 1.4 million tonnes. The tolling fee is linked to Dutch Title Transfer Facility (“TTF”) and the Euro/U.S. Dollar foreign exchange movements. The contractual floor rate is recognized in “Liquefaction services revenue” and the tolling fee above the contractual floor rate is recognized as a derivative in “Realized and unrealized (loss)/gain on oil and gas derivative instruments,” in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations (note 7).

(4) Customer billing during the commissioning period of the FLNG Hilli, prior to vessel acceptance and commencement of the LTA was deferred (notes 17 and 18) and recognized evenly over the contract term.

(5) Comprised of revenue earned from various ship management, administrative and vessel O&M services we provide to external customers.

(6) The LOA, contains both a lease component (the use of the FLNG Gimi) and a non-lease component (the O&M services). The total contract consideration is allocated between the lease and non-lease components based on their relative stand-alone selling prices determined at commencement date of the LOA. The non-lease component is recognized over time based on the value of services rendered during each billing period in accordance with the terms of the contract.

(7) In August 2024, we and bp agreed to a series of pre-COD payments to address project delays and align on commissioning milestones. Following COD in June 2025, the non-lease component of the pre-COD cash flows amounting to $36.8 million and was deferred and classified within “Other current liabilities” and “Other non-current liabilities” on our unaudited consolidated balance sheet (notes 17 and 18) which will be recognized to income evenly over the term of the LOA.

deferred pre-COD cash flows in relation to the FLNG Gimi LOA amounting to $36.8 million (December 31, 2024: $nil) (note 17 and 18). We expect to recognize vessel management fee and other revenue evenly over the remaining LOA contract term of 20 years; and
deferred commissioning revenue in relation to the FLNG Hilli of $4.3 million (December 31, 2024: $6.4 million) (note 17 and 18). We expect to recognize liquefaction services revenue related to the partially unsatisfied performance obligation at the reporting date evenly over the remaining LTA contract term of 1.1 years.
