CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Our disclosure and analysis in this report pertaining to our operations, cash flows and financial position, including, in particular, the likelihood of our success in developing and expanding our business, include forward-looking statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, or the PSLRA, provides safe harbor protections for forward-looking statements in order to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their business. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance, and underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of historical facts.

We are taking advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the PSLRA and are including this cautionary statement in connection therewith. This document and any other written or oral statements made by us or on our behalf may include forward-looking statements, which reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. This report includes assumptions, expectations, projections, intentions and beliefs about future events. These statements are intended as "forward-looking statements." We caution that assumptions, expectations, projections, intentions and beliefs about future events may and often do vary from actual results and the differences can be material. Statements that are predictive in nature, that depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, or that include words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "estimates," "seeks," "targets," "potential," "continue," "contemplate," "possible," "likely," "might," "will," "would," "could," "projects," "forecasts," "may," "should" and similar expressions are forward-looking statements.

All statements in this report that are not statements of either historical or current facts are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, such matters as:
general Liquefied Natural Gas ("LNG") shipping market conditions, including fluctuations in charter rates and vessel values;
the volatility of prevailing spot market charter rates;
our future operating or financial results;
global and regional economic and political conditions and developments, armed conflicts, including the war between Russia and Ukraine and conflicts between Israel and Hamas and the conflict regarding the Houthi's attack in the Red Sea, trade wars, tariffs, embargoes and strikes;
stability of Europe and the Euro;
inflationary pressures and central bank policies included to combat overall inflation and rising interest rates and
foreign exchange rates;
our business strategy and expected and unexpected capital spending and operating expenses, including dry-docking, surveys, upgrades, insurance costs, crewing and bunker costs;
our expectations of the availability of vessels to purchase, the time it may take to construct new vessels and risks associated with vessel construction and vessels' useful lives;
LNG market trends, including charter rates and factors affecting supply and demand;
the supply of and demand for vessels comparable to ours, including against the background of possibly accelerated climate change transition worldwide which would have an accelerated negative effect on the demand for fossil fuels, including LNG, and thus transportation of LNG;
our financial condition and liquidity, including our ability to repay or refinance our indebtedness and obtain financing in the future to fund capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate activities;
our ability to enter into and successfully deliver our vessels under time charters or other employment arrangements after our current charters expire and our ability to earn income in the spot market (which includes vessel employment under single voyage spot charters and time charters with an initial term of less than six months);



FLEX LNG Ltd.
our ability to compete successfully for future chartering opportunities and newbuilding opportunities (if any);
estimated future maintenance and replacement capital expenditures;
the expected cost of, and our ability to comply with, governmental regulations, including environmental regulations, maritime self-regulatory organization standards, as well as standard regulations imposed by our charterers applicable to our business;
customers’ increasing emphasis on environmental and safety concerns;
availability of and ability to maintain skilled labor, vessel crews and management;
our anticipated incremental general and administrative expenses as a publicly traded company;
business disruptions, including supply chain disruption and congestion, including port congestion, due to natural or
other disasters or otherwise;
potential physical disruption of shipping routes due to accidents, climate-related incidents, and public health threats; and
our ability to maintain relationships with major LNG producers and traders.

Many of these statements are based on our assumptions about factors that are beyond our ability to control or predict and are subject to risks and uncertainties that are described more fully in "Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors" of our Annual Report (as defined below). Any of these factors or a combination of these factors could materially affect our future results of operations and the ultimate accuracy of the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause future results to differ include, but are not limited to, the following:
changes in governmental rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory authorities including the implementation of new environmental regulations;
fluctuations in currencies and interest rates, such as Secured Overnight Financing Rate;
the impact that any discontinuance, modification or other reform or the establishment of alternative reference rates have on the Company's floating interest rate debt instruments;
changes in economic and competitive conditions affecting our business, including market fluctuations in charter rates and charterers' abilities to perform under existing time charters;
shareholders’ reliance on the Company to enforce the Company’s rights against contract counterparties;
dependence on the ability of the Company’s subsidiaries to distribute funds to satisfy financial obligations and make dividend payments;
the impact that any discontinuance, modification or other reform or the establishment of alternative reference rates may have on our floating interest rate debt instruments;
the length and severity of epidemics and pandemics and any impact on across our business on demand, operations in China and the Far East and knock-on impacts to our global operations;
potential liability from future litigation, related to claims raised by public-interest organizations or activism with regard to failure to adapt or mitigate climate impact;
the arresting or attachment of one or more of the Company’s vessels by maritime claimants;
potential requisition of the Company’s vessels by a government during a period of war or emergency;
treatment of the Company as a “passive foreign investment company” by U.S. tax authorities;
being required to pay taxes on U.S. source income;
the Company’s operations being subject to economic substance requirements;

Employment of Our Fleet and Our Customers

In January and February 2024, the charterer of Flex Resolute and Flex Courageous exercised the first extension options on the respective vessels. Both vessels' firm periods are now scheduled to expire in the first quarter of 2027 and the charterer will have one further option, for each vessel, to extend the firm periods by an additional two years.

In April 2024, the charterer of Flex Endeavour exercised an option to extend the firm period of the time charter by 500 days. The vessels' firm period is now scheduled to expire in the first quarter of 2032. As announced on November 23, 2022, in connection with the option extensions in respect of three ships, the charterer has one further option to extend the time charter period by one additional year to the first quarter of 2033.

FLEX LNG Ltd.
In April and May 2024, Flex Constellation and her sister vessel, Flex Courageous, completed their first scheduled drydocks, both in Singapore. We are required to drydock each vessel once every five years. We are next scheduled to have drydockings for four vessels in 2025 and three vessels in 2026. We have no drydockings scheduled for any of our vessels in 2027.

In May 2024, we signed a time charter agreement for Flex Constellation with a large Asian utility and asset backed LNG trader for a minimum period of 312 days with the firm period scheduled to end in the first quarter of 2025. The charterer has the option to extend the charter by an additional one-year, which could extend the firm period to the end of the first quarter of 2026.

Business Developments

At the 2024 Annual General Meeting of the shareholders of the Company ("AGM") held in April 2024, our shareholders approved the reduction of the Share Premium Account (Recognized as Additional paid-in capital in the Consolidated Statements of Changes in Shareholders’ Equity) of the Company by $300.0 million and the crediting of the same amount resulting from the reduction to the Company’s Contributed Surplus account, with effect from April 2024.

Also at the 2024 AGM, our shareholders approved a reorganization of our share capital in accordance with the Bermuda Companies Act. Prior to the reorganization, the Company's authorized share capital was 10,000,000,000 shares with a par value of $0.10 per share. Following the reorganization, the Company's authorized share capital was adjusted to 100,000,000 shares of par value $0.01 per share. As there were 54,520,325 shares issued and fully paid at the time of the reorganization, to reflect the decrease in the par value of each share from $0.10 to $0.01, $4.9 million was transferred from share capital to contributed surplus. The shares of par value $0.01 each rank pari passu in all respects with each other.

In April 2024, the Board of Directors announced the election of Ola Lorentzon as the new Chairman of the Board of Directors. Mr. Lorentzon replaced David McManus who did not stand for re-election as a Director at the AGM.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023

Amounts included in the following discussion are derived from our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.
Vessel operating revenues
(unaudited figures in thousands of $)Six months ended
June 30,
20242023
Vessel operating revenues174,932 179,204 

Vessel operating revenues decreased by $4.3 million to $174.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in vessel operating revenues is due to the decline in the spot market affecting Flex Artemis and Flex Constellation as well as declaration of extension options for Flex Resolute and Flex Courageous resulting in a negative revenue recognition effect. These two time charters are the only time charters in our contract portfolio with lower optional rate than the initial firm period. These two effects are offset by the Company completing two drydocks in 2024 compared to four drydocks in 2023, thus resulting in lower off-hire for the period.

Voyage expenses

Voyage expenses(1,302)(1,035)

Voyage expenses, which include voyage specific expenses, broker commissions and bunkers consumption, increased by $0.3 million to $1.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Vessel operating expenses
(unaudited figures in thousands of $)Six months ended
June 30,
20242023
Vessel operating expenses(34,485)(32,999)

Vessel operating expenses increased by $1.5 million to $34.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in vessel operating expenses is as a result of some vessels reaching running hour milestones resulting in additional cost in relation to routine main engine and auxiliary engine servicing.


Administrative expenses
(unaudited figures in thousands of $)Six months ended
June 30,
20242023
Administrative expenses(5,261)(6,067)
Administrative expenses decreased by $0.8 million to $5.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in administrative expenses is principally due to a decrease in performance related bonuses in 2024 compared to 2023.
Depreciation
(unaudited figures in thousands of $)Six months ended
June 30,
20242023
Depreciation(37,455)(35,870)
Depreciation increased by $1.6 million to $37.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in depreciation is as a result of six drydocks completed between 2023 and 2024, which were capitalized at a higher cost than the initial drydock component capitalized upon the delivery of each vessel from the shipyard.
Interest income
(unaudited figures in thousands of $)Six months ended
June 30,
20242023
Interest income2,059 2,973 
Interest income decreased by $0.9 million to $2.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease is primarily due to the decrease in the average cash held on account.

Interest expense increased by $0.3 million to $53.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Extinguishment of long-term debt
(unaudited figures in thousands of $)Six months ended
June 30,
20242023
Extinguishment of long-term debt (10,238)
Extinguishment of long-term debt decreased by $10.2 million to $0.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. In the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded an unrealized write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs of $8.8 million and direct exit costs of $1.4 million in relation to the extinguishment of the $629 Million Facility and the Flex Amber Sale and Leaseback, which were re-financed.
Gain on derivatives
(unaudited figures in thousands of $)Six months ended
June 30,
20242023
Gain on derivatives
10,781 14,264 
The Company recorded a gain on derivatives of $10.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, which includes an unrealized loss of $2.6 million and a realized gain on derivatives of $13.4 million. This compares to a gain on derivatives of $14.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023, which includes an unrealized gain of $3.0 million and a realized gain of $11.2 million. The unrealized gain or loss on derivatives is primarily derived from the changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps which will fluctuate based on changes in the total notional amount and the movement in the long-term floating rate of interest during the period. The realized gain/(loss) on derivative settlements will be affected by changes in the shorter term floating rate of interest compared to the respective agreement's fixed rate of interest.
Other financial items

(unaudited figures in thousands of $)Six months ended
June 30,
20242023
Other financial items(352)(1,118)
The Company recorded an expense of $0.4 million in relation to other financial items in the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to an expense of $1.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
We operate in a capital-intensive industry and have financed the purchase of the vessels in our Fleet through a combination of cash generated from operations, equity capital and borrowings under our financing agreements. Payment of amounts outstanding under our debt agreements, and all other commitments that we have entered into are made from the cash available to us.
Cash
As of June 30, 2024, we had an aggregate of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $370.3 million, a decrease of $40.2 million, compared to an aggregate of $410.5 million as of December 31, 2023. In the six months ended June 30, 2024, the changes in cash consisted of $82.4 million provided by operating activities and $122.4 million used in financing activities, and $0.2 million used as a result of the effect of exchange rate changes on cash.

Financing information

$270 Million Facility
In July 2024, the Company received credit-approved term sheets for a $270.0 million term and revolving credit facility (the "$270 Million Facility"). The $270 Million Facility will re-finance the amounts outstanding under the $375 Million Facility, in respect of Flex Aurora and Flex Ranger. The facility is comprised of a $90.0 million term loan facility with a 6-year repayment profile and a non-amortizing $180.0 million revolving credit facility, resulting in an average age-adjusted repayment profile of 22 years. The facility has an interest rate of SOFR plus 185 basis points.
Flex Endeavour Sale and Leaseback
Also in July 2024, the Company received credit approved term sheets for a sale and leaseback agreement with an Asian based lease provider for the vessel, Flex Endeavour (the "Flex Endeavour Sale and Leaseback"). The Flex Endeavour Sale and Leaseback will re-finance the amounts outstanding under the $375 Million Facility, in respect of Flex Endeavour. Under the terms of the agreement, the vessel will be sold for a consideration of $160.0 million, with a bareboat charter of approximately 9.9 years. The bareboat rate payable under the lease has a fixed element based on a fixed rate of interest and a variable element based on term SOFR plus a margin. The Company has the options to terminate the lease and repurchase the vessel at fixed price after approximately 8.5 years.
The aforementioned re-financings of the $375 Million Facility, which is to be replaced with the Flex Endeavour Sale and Leaseback and the $270 Million Facility, are expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2024, subject to final documentation and customary closing conditions.
Interest Rate Swaps
In order to reduce the risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates, the Company has entered into interest rate swap transactions, whereby the floating rate has been swapped to a fixed rate of interest. As of June 30, 2024, the Company has fixed the interest rate on an aggregate, net notional principal of $670.0 million.

In the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company shortened the duration of two interest rate swaps by an aggregate of 14 years, resulting in cash proceeds of $5.0 million and $5.4 million. Both swaps each have a notional principal of $50 million and have fixed interest rates of 1.91% and 2.15%, respectively. The expiration date of both swaps has shortened from July 2032 to July 2025 respectively.
In August 2024, the Company terminated two forward-start, mirror interest rate swaps with notional principals of $100.0 million each. The positive proceeds at the date of termination were used to enter into a new $100.0 million interest rate swap with a fixed rate of interest of 0.825% swapped for a floating rate based on SOFR. The new swap has the same duration as the terminated swaps, which had an effective date in March 2026 and a maturity date of March 2032.
Loan Covenants
Certain of our financing agreements contain, among other things, the following financial and vessel covenants, which are tested quarterly, the most stringent of which require us (on a consolidated basis) to maintain:
a book equity ratio of minimum 0.20 to 1.0;
a positive working capital;
minimum liquidity, including undrawn credit lines with a remaining term of at least six months, being the higher of:
i.$25 million;
ii.an amount equal to five per cent (5%) of our total interest bearing financial indebtedness net of any cash and cash equivalents; and
collateral maintenance test, ensuring that the aggregate value of the vessels making up the facility in question exceeds the aggregate value of the debt commitment outstanding.

Our financing agreements discussed above contain, among other things, restrictive covenants which, to the extent triggered, would restrict our ability to:
i.declare, make or pay any dividend, charge, fee or other distribution (whether in cash or in kind) on or in respect of its share capital (or any class of its share capital);
ii.pay any interest or repay any principal amount (or capitalized interest) on any debt to any of its shareholders;

6


FLEX LNG Ltd.
iii.redeem, repurchase or repay any of its share capital or resolve to do so; or
iv.enter into any transaction or arrangement having a similar effect as described in (i) through (iii) above.

Our secured credit facilities may be secured by, among other things:
a first priority mortgage over the relevant collateralized vessels;
a first priority assignment of earnings, insurances and charters from the mortgaged vessels for the specific facility;
a pledge of earnings accounts generated by the mortgaged vessels for the specific facility; and
a pledge of the equity interests of each vessel owning subsidiary under the specific facility.

A violation of any of the covenants contained in our financing agreements may constitute an event of default under the relevant financing agreement, which, unless cured within the grace period set forth under the financing agreement, if applicable, or waived or modified by our lenders, provides our lenders, by notice to the borrowers, with the right to, among other things, cancel the commitments immediately, declare that all or part of the loan, together with accrued interest, and all other amounts accrued or outstanding under the agreement, be immediately due and payable, enforce any or all security under the security documents, and/or exercise any or all of the rights, remedies, powers or discretion's granted to the facility agent or finance parties under the finance documents or by any applicable law or regulation or otherwise as a consequence of such event of default.

Furthermore, certain of our financing agreements contain a cross-default provision that may be triggered by a default under one of our other financing agreements. A cross-default provision means that a default on one loan would result in a default on certain of our other loans. Because of the presence of cross-default provisions in certain of our financing agreements, the refusal of any one lender under our financing agreements to grant or extend a waiver could result in certain of our indebtedness being accelerated, even if our other lenders under our financing agreements have waived covenant defaults under the respective agreements. If our secured indebtedness is accelerated in full or in part, it would be difficult for us to refinance our debt or obtain additional financing and we could lose our vessels and other assets securing our financing agreements if our lenders foreclose their liens, which would adversely affect our ability to conduct our business.

Moreover, in connection with any waivers of or amendments to our financing agreements that we have obtained, or may obtain in the future, our lenders may impose additional operating and financial restrictions on us or modify the terms of our existing financing agreements. These restrictions may further restrict our ability to, among other things, pay dividends, make capital expenditures or incur additional indebtedness, including through the issuance of guarantees. In addition, our lenders may require the payment of additional fees, require prepayment of a portion of our indebtedness to them, accelerate the amortization schedule for our indebtedness and increase the interest rates they charge us on our outstanding indebtedness.

As of June 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all of the financial covenants contained in our financing agreements.

Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $7.7 million to $82.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $74.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Net cash provided by operating activities was primarily impacted by: (i) overall market conditions as reflected by the decrease in vessel operating revenues of our Fleet, (ii) increases in interest expense as a result of the increase in floating interest rates offset by a decrease in our long-term debt, (iii) the realized gain/(loss) upon settlement of our interest rate swap derivatives (iv) scheduled drydocking of our vessels and (v) an increase in our other current assets and liabilities affecting working capital;
i.The majority of our Fleet is operating on improved, long-term fixed rate charter hires compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023;
ii.The increase in interest rates, has resulted in an increase in interest expense, however interest paid decreased by $6.8 million as a result of the timing and length of interest rate resets on re-financed facilities in 2023.
iii.The Company has recorded a realized gain on the settlement of our interest rate swap derivatives in the six months ended June 30, 2024 of $13.4 million, compared to a realized gain of $11.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This is principally due to higher interest rates in 2024 compared to 2023;
iv.Two of our vessels, Flex Constellation and Flex Courageous, underwent scheduled drydockings with expenditure of $10.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024. This compares with four vessels which underwent drydockings during 2023, with expenditure of $20.7 million; and
v.Changes in operating assets and liabilities resulted in a decrease in cash provided by operating activities of $4.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024. The movement in working capital balances are impacted by the timing of voyages, and also by the timing of re-fueling and consumption of fuel on board our vessels. Revenues for all of our vessels operate under time charters and are typically billed in advance.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $0.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $0.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $122.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $43.6 million provided by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Net cash used in financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily comprised of:
scheduled repayments of long-term debt amounting to $53.0 million; and

dividend payments of $80.7 million.

These items were partially offset by:
proceeds from termination of derivative instruments of $10.4 million.
Net cash provided by financing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily consisted of $792.3 million net proceeds from the issuance of re-financed long-term debt, offset by: $596.8 million in prepayments of existing long-term debt; dividends of $93.9 million; and scheduled repayments of long-term debt amounting to $58.0 million.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our activities expose us to a variety of financial risks including market risk (including currency risk and interest rate risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. Our overall risk management program considers the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimize potential adverse effects on our financial performance, in a cost-effective manner.

FLEX LNG Ltd.
Interest rate risk

The Company is exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through its floating-rate borrowings that require the Company to make interest payments based on SOFR. Significant increases in interest rates could adversely affect operating margins, results of operations and ability to service debt. The Company uses interest rate swaps to reduce its exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates. The principal objective of these contracts is to minimize the risks and costs associated with its floating-rate debt. The Company is exposed to the risk of credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparty to the interest rate swap agreements.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company's long-term debt which was at variable rates, net of the amount subject to interest rate swap agreements was $949.5 million, which includes $400.0 million drawn under revolving credit facilities. Based on this, one percentage point increase in annual SOFR interest rates would increase its annual interest expense by approximately $9.5 million.

As of June 30, 2024, we had interest rate swap transactions, aimed at reducing the risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates, whereby the floating rate has been swapped to a fixed rate. The aggregate net notional principal of our interest rate swaps was $670.0 million. Please see “Note 10. Financial Instruments” to our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements for additional details.

Foreign Currency Risk

The majority of our transactions, assets and liabilities are denominated in U.S. dollars, our functional currency. However, we incur expenditures in currencies other than the functional currency, mainly overhead costs in GBP and NOK. Historically, we have not hedged these exposures. There is a risk that currency fluctuations in transactions incurred in currencies other than our functional currency will have a negative effect on the value of our cash flows.

Inflation

Significant global inflationary pressures increase operating, voyage, general and administrative, and financing costs. Historically, shipping companies are accustomed to navigating in shipping downturns, coping with inflationary pressures and monitoring costs to preserve liquidity, as they typically encourage suppliers and service providers to lower rates and prices.

Liquidity Risk

We monitor the risk of a shortage of funds using a cash modeling forecast. This model considers the maturity of payment profiles and projected cash flows required to fund the operations. Historically funds have been raised via equity issuance, lease finance and loan finance. Market conditions can have a significant impact on the ability to raise equity, lease finance and loan finance. While equity issuance may be dilutive to existing shareholders, lease and loan finance will contain covenants and other restrictions.

Our objective is to maintain a balance between continuity of funding and flexibility through the raising of funds from investors.

Credit Risk

We are exposed to credit risk, which is the risk that a counterparty will be unable to pay amounts in full when due. There is a concentration of credit risk with respect to cash and cash equivalents to the extent that substantially all of the amounts are carried with Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB ("SEB") (S&P Global rating: A+), Danske Bank AS ("Danske Bank") (S&P Global rating: A+) and DNB Bank ASA ("DNB") (S&P Global rating: AA-).

Price Risk

We are also subject, indirectly, to price risk related to the spot/short term charter market for chartering LNG carriers. Charter rates may be uncertain and volatile and depend upon, among other things, the natural gas prices, the supply and demand for vessels, arbitrage opportunities, vessel obsolescence and the energy market, which we cannot predict with certainty. Currently, no financial instruments have been entered into to reduce this risk.

FLEX LNG Ltd.
Operational Risk

The operation of an LNG carrier has certain unique operational risks. Our vessels and their cargoes are at risk of being damaged or lost because of events such as marine disasters, bad weather, business interruptions caused by mechanical failures, grounding and fire, explosions and collisions, human error, war, terrorism, piracy, labor strikes, boycotts and other circumstances or events. These hazards may result in death or injury to persons, loss of revenues or property, higher insurance rates, damage to our customer relationships and market disruptions, delay or rerouting.

If our LNG carriers suffer damage, they may need to be repaired at a drydocking facility. The costs of drydock repairs are unpredictable and may be substantial. We may have to pay drydocking costs that our insurance does not cover at all or in full. The loss of revenues while these vessels are being repaired and repositioned, as well as the actual cost of these repairs, may adversely affect our business and financial condition.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.     GENERAL
FLEX LNG Ltd. ("FLEX LNG" or the "Company") is a limited liability company, originally incorporated in the British Virgin Islands in September 2006 and re-domiciled to Bermuda in June 2017. The Company is currently listed on the Oslo and New York Stock Exchanges under the symbol "FLNG". The Company's activities are focused on seaborne transportation of liquefied natural gas ("LNG") through the ownership and operation of fuel efficient, fifth generation LNG carriers. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had thirteen LNG carriers in operation.
2.     ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of accounting
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and, in the opinion of management, include all material adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the Company's consolidated financial statements, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and notes included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 5, 2024.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the disclosures required in an Annual Report on Form 20-F.
Significant accounting policies
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company’s annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023.
3.     RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Recently issued accounting pronouncements are not expected to materially impact the Company.
4.     EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net income/(loss) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during that period.
Diluted earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net income/(loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares. If in the period there was a loss, then any potential ordinary shares have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share, because the effects were anti-dilutive.

The following reflects the net income/(loss) and share data used in the earnings per share calculation.

of any cash and cash equivalents; and

collateral maintenance test, ensuring that the aggregate value of the vessels making up the facility in question exceeds the aggregate value of the debt commitment outstanding.

As of June 30, 2024, all financial covenants have been met accordingly.

10.     FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
In order to reduce the risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates, the Company has hedged exposures to interest rates using derivative instruments, which involves swapping floating rates of interest to fixed rates of interest. These instruments are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes.

Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative instrument. When the fair value of a derivative instrument is positive, the counterparty owes the Company, which creates credit risk for the Company. When the fair value of a derivative instrument is negative, the Company owes the counterparty, and, therefore, the Company is not exposed to the counterparty's credit risk in those circumstances. The Company minimizes counterparty credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with major banking and financial institutions. The derivative instruments entered into by the Company do not contain credit risk-related contingent features. The Company has not entered into master netting agreements with the counterparties to its derivative financial instrument contracts.
Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a derivative instrument that results from a change in interest rates, currency exchange rates or commodity prices. The market risk associated with interest rate contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken.
The Company assesses interest rate risk by monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating economical hedging opportunities.
In order to reduce the risk associated with fluctuations in interest rates, the Company has interest rate swap agreements, whereby it receives a floating and pays a fixed rate of interest, on an aggregate net notional principal of $670.0 million as of June 30, 2024 (December 31, 2023: $720.0 million).
The Company shortened the duration of two interest rate swaps by an aggregate 14 years resulting in cash proceeds of $5.0 million and $5.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024. Both swaps each have a notional principal of $50 million and have fixed interest rates of 1.91% and 2.15%, respectively. The expiration date of both swaps has shortened from July 2032 to July 2025.
Our interest rate swap contracts as of June 30, 2024, of which none are designated as hedging instruments, are summarized as follows:

11.        FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

The principal financial assets of the Company at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, other current assets, receivables due from related parties and derivative instruments receivable amongst other less significant items. The principal financial liabilities of the Company consist of payables due to related parties, accounts payable, other current liabilities, derivative instruments payable and long-term debt.

The fair value measurements requirement applies to all assets and liabilities that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis. The assets and liabilities carried at fair value should be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories based on the inputs used to determine its fair value:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data;
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

The fair value of the Company's cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash approximates their carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The fair value of other current assets, receivables from related parties, payables due to related parties, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The fair value of floating rate debt has been determined using Level 2 inputs and is considered to be equal to the carrying value since it bears variable interest rates, which are reset on a quarterly or semi-annual basis. Carrying value of the floating rate debt is shown net deduction of debt issuance cost, while fair value of floating rate debt is shown gross.

The fixed rate debt has been determined using Level 2 inputs being the discounted expected cash flows of the outstanding debt.

The following table includes the estimated fair value and carrying value of those assets and liabilities.

There have been no transfers between different levels in the fair value hierarchy during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

13.    SHARE CAPITAL
The Company had an issued share capital at June 30, 2024 of $0.5 million divided into 54,520,325 ordinary shares, par value $0.01 per share (December 31, 2023: $5.5 million divided into 54,520,325 ordinary shares, par value $0.10 per share).
At the 2024 Annual General Meeting ("AGM") held in April 2024, the Company's shareholders approved a reorganization of share capital in accordance with the Bermuda Companies Act. Prior to the reorganization, the Company's authorized share capital was 10,000,000,000 shares, par value $0.10 per share. Following the reorganization, the Company's authorized share capital was adjusted to 100,000,000 shares of par value $0.01 per share. As there were 54,520,325 shares issued and fully paid at the time of the reorganization, to reflect the decrease in the par value of each share from $0.10 to $0.01, $4.9 million was transferred from Share Capital to Contributed Surplus. The shares of par value $0.01 each rank pari passu in all respects with each other.

17.        SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In July 2024, the Company received credit-approved term sheets for a $270 million term and revolving credit facility (the "$270 Million Facility"). The $270 million Facility will re-finance the amounts outstanding under the $375 Million Facility, in respect of Flex Aurora and Flex Ranger. The facility is comprised of a $90 million term loan facility with a six-year repayment profile and a non-amortizing $180 million revolving credit facility, resulting in an average age-adjusted repayment profile of 22 years. The facility has an interest rate of SOFR plus 185 basis points.

Also in July 2024, the Company received credit-approved term sheets for a sale and leaseback agreement with an Asian-based lease provider for the vessel, Flex Endeavour (the "Flex Endeavour Sale and Leaseback"). The Flex Endeavour Sale and Leaseback will re-finance the amounts outstanding under the $375 million Facility, in respect of Flex Endeavour. Under the terms of the agreement, the vessel will be sold for a consideration of $160 million, with a bareboat charter of approximately 9.9 years. The bareboat rate payable under the lease has a fixed element based on a fixed rate of interest and a variable element based on term SOFR plus a margin. The Company has the options to terminate the lease and repurchase the vessel at fixed price after approximately 8.5 years.

The aforementioned re-financings of the $375 million Facility, which is to be replaced with the Flex Endeavour Sale and Leaseback and the $270 million Facility, are expected to close in the fourth quarter 2024, subject to final documentation and customary closing conditions.

In August 2024, the Company terminated two forward-start, mirror interest rate swaps with notional principals of $100 million each. The positive proceeds at the date of termination were used to enter into a new $100 million interest rate swap with a fixed rate of interest of 0.825% swapped for a floating rate based on SOFR. The new swap has the same duration as the terminated swaps, which had an effective date in March 2026 and a maturity date of March 2032.

On August 13, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a cash dividend for the second quarter of 2024 of $0.75 per share. This dividend will be paid on or around September 12, 2024, to shareholders on record as of August 29, 2024. On the New York Stock Exchange, the ex-dividend date is August 29, 2024 and last day of trading right to receive distribution is August 28, 2024. On the Oslo Stock Exchange, the ex-dividend date is August 28, 2024 and the last day of trading right to receive distribution is August 27, 2024.

All declarations of dividends are subject to the determination and discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors based on its consideration of various factors, including the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, level of indebtedness, anticipated capital requirements, contractual restrictions, restrictions in its debt agreements, restrictions under applicable law, its business prospects and other factors that the Board of Directors may deem relevant.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]  
Earnings per share EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net income/(loss) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during that period.
Diluted earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net income/(loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be issued on conversion of all the dilutive potential ordinary shares into ordinary shares. If in the period there was a loss, then any potential ordinary shares have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share, because the effects were anti-dilutive.

The following reflects the net income/(loss) and share data used in the earnings per share calculation.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Financial instruments FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
In order to reduce the risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates, the Company has hedged exposures to interest rates using derivative instruments, which involves swapping floating rates of interest to fixed rates of interest. These instruments are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes.

Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative instrument. When the fair value of a derivative instrument is positive, the counterparty owes the Company, which creates credit risk for the Company. When the fair value of a derivative instrument is negative, the Company owes the counterparty, and, therefore, the Company is not exposed to the counterparty's credit risk in those circumstances. The Company minimizes counterparty credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with major banking and financial institutions. The derivative instruments entered into by the Company do not contain credit risk-related contingent features. The Company has not entered into master netting agreements with the counterparties to its derivative financial instrument contracts.
Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a derivative instrument that results from a change in interest rates, currency exchange rates or commodity prices. The market risk associated with interest rate contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken.
The Company assesses interest rate risk by monitoring changes in interest rate exposures that may adversely impact expected future cash flows and by evaluating economical hedging opportunities.
In order to reduce the risk associated with fluctuations in interest rates, the Company has interest rate swap agreements, whereby it receives a floating and pays a fixed rate of interest, on an aggregate net notional principal of $670.0 million as of June 30, 2024 (December 31, 2023: $720.0 million).
The Company shortened the duration of two interest rate swaps by an aggregate 14 years resulting in cash proceeds of $5.0 million and $5.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024. Both swaps each have a notional principal of $50 million and have fixed interest rates of 1.91% and 2.15%, respectively. The expiration date of both swaps has shortened from July 2032 to July 2025.
Our interest rate swap contracts as of June 30, 2024, of which none are designated as hedging instruments, are summarized as follows:

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair value of financial assets and liabilities FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
The principal financial assets of the Company at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, other current assets, receivables due from related parties and derivative instruments receivable amongst other less significant items. The principal financial liabilities of the Company consist of payables due to related parties, accounts payable, other current liabilities, derivative instruments payable and long-term debt.

The fair value measurements requirement applies to all assets and liabilities that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis. The assets and liabilities carried at fair value should be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories based on the inputs used to determine its fair value:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data;
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

The fair value of the Company's cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash approximates their carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The fair value of other current assets, receivables from related parties, payables due to related parties, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The fair value of floating rate debt has been determined using Level 2 inputs and is considered to be equal to the carrying value since it bears variable interest rates, which are reset on a quarterly or semi-annual basis. Carrying value of the floating rate debt is shown net deduction of debt issuance cost, while fair value of floating rate debt is shown gross.

The fixed rate debt has been determined using Level 2 inputs being the discounted expected cash flows of the outstanding debt.

The following table includes the estimated fair value and carrying value of those assets and liabilities.

There have been no transfers between different levels in the fair value hierarchy during the six months ended June 30, 2024.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The fair value (Level 2) of our derivative instruments, which is comprised of interest rate swap derivative agreements, is the present value of the estimated future cash flows that we would receive or pay to terminate the agreements at the balance sheet date, taking into account, as applicable, fixed interest rates on interest rate swaps, current interest rates, forward rate curves and the credit worthiness of both us and the derivative counterparty.

Concentration of Risk
There is a concentration of credit risk with respect to cash and cash equivalents to the extent that substantially all of the amounts are carried with SEB (S&P Global rating: A+), Danske Bank (S&P Global rating: A+) and DNB (S&P Global rating: AA-).

The Company had an issued share capital at June 30, 2024 of $0.5 million divided into 54,520,325 ordinary shares, par value $0.01 per share (December 31, 2023: $5.5 million divided into 54,520,325 ordinary shares, par value $0.10 per share).
At the 2024 Annual General Meeting ("AGM") held in April 2024, the Company's shareholders approved a reorganization of share capital in accordance with the Bermuda Companies Act. Prior to the reorganization, the Company's authorized share capital was 10,000,000,000 shares, par value $0.10 per share. Following the reorganization, the Company's authorized share capital was adjusted to 100,000,000 shares of par value $0.01 per share. As there were 54,520,325 shares issued and fully paid at the time of the reorganization, to reflect the decrease in the par value of each share from $0.10 to $0.01, $4.9 million was transferred from Share Capital to Contributed Surplus. The shares of par value $0.01 each rank pari passu in all respects with each other.

Subsequent events SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In July 2024, the Company received credit-approved term sheets for a $270 million term and revolving credit facility (the "$270 Million Facility"). The $270 million Facility will re-finance the amounts outstanding under the $375 Million Facility, in respect of Flex Aurora and Flex Ranger. The facility is comprised of a $90 million term loan facility with a six-year repayment profile and a non-amortizing $180 million revolving credit facility, resulting in an average age-adjusted repayment profile of 22 years. The facility has an interest rate of SOFR plus 185 basis points.

Also in July 2024, the Company received credit-approved term sheets for a sale and leaseback agreement with an Asian-based lease provider for the vessel, Flex Endeavour (the "Flex Endeavour Sale and Leaseback"). The Flex Endeavour Sale and Leaseback will re-finance the amounts outstanding under the $375 million Facility, in respect of Flex Endeavour. Under the terms of the agreement, the vessel will be sold for a consideration of $160 million, with a bareboat charter of approximately 9.9 years. The bareboat rate payable under the lease has a fixed element based on a fixed rate of interest and a variable element based on term SOFR plus a margin. The Company has the options to terminate the lease and repurchase the vessel at fixed price after approximately 8.5 years.

The aforementioned re-financings of the $375 million Facility, which is to be replaced with the Flex Endeavour Sale and Leaseback and the $270 million Facility, are expected to close in the fourth quarter 2024, subject to final documentation and customary closing conditions.

In August 2024, the Company terminated two forward-start, mirror interest rate swaps with notional principals of $100 million each. The positive proceeds at the date of termination were used to enter into a new $100 million interest rate swap with a fixed rate of interest of 0.825% swapped for a floating rate based on SOFR. The new swap has the same duration as the terminated swaps, which had an effective date in March 2026 and a maturity date of March 2032.

On August 13, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a cash dividend for the second quarter of 2024 of $0.75 per share. This dividend will be paid on or around September 12, 2024, to shareholders on record as of August 29, 2024. On the New York Stock Exchange, the ex-dividend date is August 29, 2024 and last day of trading right to receive distribution is August 28, 2024. On the Oslo Stock Exchange, the ex-dividend date is August 28, 2024 and the last day of trading right to receive distribution is August 27, 2024.

All declarations of dividends are subject to the determination and discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors based on its consideration of various factors, including the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, level of indebtedness, anticipated capital requirements, contractual restrictions, restrictions in its debt agreements, restrictions under applicable law, its business prospects and other factors that the Board of Directors may deem relevant.
