Annual General Meeting financial
"Golar LNG Limited (the “Company”) advises that the 2026 Annual General Meeting of the Company was held on May 19, 2026"
casual vacancies regulatory
"vacancies in the number of Directors be designated as casual vacancies and that the Board of Directors be authorised to fill such vacancies"
independent auditors financial
"To re-appoint Ernst & Young LLP of London, England as the Company’s independent auditors and to authorise the Directors to determine their remuneration."
Independent auditors are outside, licensed accountants who examine a company’s books, records and internal controls and issue an objective opinion on whether the financial statements accurately reflect the business’s financial position. Investors treat their report like a neutral inspector’s stamp — it increases trust, makes financial results easier to compare, and alerts readers if there are errors, omissions or other problems that could affect investment decisions.
director fees financial
"To approve director fees payable to the Company’s Board of Directors of a total amount of fees not to exceed US$2,000,000.00 for the year ending December 31, 2026."
Norwegian Securities Trading Act regulatory
"This information is subject to the disclosure requirements pursuant to Section 5-12 the Norwegian Securities Trading Act"
The Norwegian Securities Trading Act is the national law that sets the rules for buying, selling and offering financial instruments in Norway, including requirements for fair disclosure, market conduct and investor protection. For investors it matters because it helps ensure companies and intermediaries provide accurate information and prevents abusive trading, much like traffic laws make driving safer and predictable so people can trust the market and make informed decisions.
