Overview

CoolCo is an LNGC pure play company with a balanced portfolio of short and longer-term charters, the cash flows from which form the basis of the Company’s dividends for common shareholders. In addition to the built-in and funded growth from the two Newbuild Vessels scheduled for delivery towards the end of 2024, our strategy includes ongoing assessment of opportunities for vessel acquisitions and potential consolidation in a fragmented market segment.

Through its in-house vessel management platform, CoolCo manages and operates its LNG transportation and infrastructure assets for a range of some of the world’s leading companies in addition to providing such services to third parties. CoolCo also benefits from the scale and stature encompassing EPS and its affiliates, as CoolCo’s largest shareholder and the owner of one of the world’s largest independent shipping fleets, which strengthen the Company’s strategic position with regard to shipyards, financial institutions, and access to deal-flow.

Developments in 2024

The significant developments that have occurred since January 1, 2024 are as follows:

•Newbuild Vessel

On May 16, 2024, we announced securing a 14-year charter with GAIL (India) Limited ("GAIL") for one of the two state-of-the-art MEGA LNG carriers currently under order at Hyundai-Samho (the "Newbuild Vessels"), expected to be delivered towards the end of 2024, with the 14-year time charter commencing in early 2025.

•Financing

On March 22, 2024, the Company and a group of lenders under the $520 million term loan facility maturing in May 2029, signed an amendment for a $200 million upsize of this facility (on a delayed drawdown basis) in anticipation of the maturity of the two existing sale and leaseback facilities during the first quarter of 2025. The amendment also includes reduction in the minimum free cash restriction.

•Dividends

In February 2024 and May 2024, the Company declared a cash distribution of $0.41 per common share in respect of the three month periods ended December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024, respectively, to common shareholders of record as of March 11, 2024 and May 31, 2024, respectively.

Operating and Financial Review

A. Operating Results for the six month period ended June 30, 2024 compared with the six month period ended June 30, 2023

The following discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, and related notes of our 2023 Annual Report.


	Six Months Ended June, 30
(in thousands of $, except operating days less scheduled off-hire days and average daily TCE rate)	2024	2023	Change	% Change
Time and voyage charter revenues	155,111	173,239	(18,128)	(10)%
Vessel and other management fee revenues	7,402	7,133	269	4%
Amortization of intangible assets and liabilities arising from charter agreements, net	8,984	8,593	391	5%
Total operating revenues	171,497	188,965	(17,468)	(9)%

Vessel operating expenses	(34,631)	(37,423)	2,792	(7)%
Voyage, charter hire and commission expenses, net	(2,339)	(2,376)	37	(2)%
Administrative expenses	(11,323)	(12,865)	1,542	(12)%
Depreciation and amortization	(37,746)	(38,795)	1,049	(3)%





Other non-operating income	—	42,549	(42,549)	(100)%


Interest income	3,062	4,308	(1,246)	(29)%
Interest expense	(38,858)	(39,348)	490	(1)%
Gains on derivative instruments	15,366	10,704	4,662	44%
Other financial items, net	(1,452)	(807)	(645)	80%



Income taxes	(286)	(134)	(152)	113%

Other Financial Data:
Total time and voyage charter revenues minus voyage, charter hire and commission expenses, net	152,772	170,863	(18,091)	(11)%
Operating days less scheduled off-hire days	1,964	2,072	(108)	(5)%
Average daily TCE rate(1) (to the closest $100)	77,800	82,500	(4,700)	(6)%

(1) Average daily TCE rate is a non-GAAP financial measure and is calculated by taking the total time and voyage charter revenues minus voyage, charterhire and commission expenses, net divided by operating days during a reporting period. Operating days are calculated on a vessel-by-vessel basis and represent the calendar days in a given period that a vessel is in our possession less off-hire days as a result of scheduled repairs, scheduled dry docking or special or intermediate surveys and scheduled lay-ups. See “Item 5. Important financial and operational terms and concepts” in the 2023 Annual Report.

Time and voyage charter revenues: The time and voyage charter revenues decreased by $18.1 million to $155.1 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2024 compared to $173.2 million during the six month period ended June 30, 2023, principally because of idling of one vessel whilst it transitioned to a new charter and one vessel not operating the full period as a result of dry dock maintenance during the six month period ended June 30, 2024.

Amortization of intangible assets and liabilities arising from charter agreements, net: Amortization of intangible assets and liabilities arising from charter agreements, net relates to favorable contract intangible assets and unfavorable contract liabilities which were recognized as part of the acquisition of the Original Vessels and the Acquired Vessels (each, as defined below). We remeasured the below/above market fair value of the existing underlying time charter party (TCP) contracts that we acquired during the spin off from Golar and the subsequent acquisition of the Acquired Vessels. The net amortization income for the six month period ended June 30, 2024 amounted to $9.0 million ($9.5 million amortization income of unfavorable intangible contract liabilities net of $0.5 million amortization expense of favorable intangible contract assets). The amortization income for the six month period ended June 30, 2023 amounted to $8.6 million ($11.1 million amortization income of unfavorable intangible contract liabilities net of $2.5 million amortization expense of favorable intangible contract assets).

Vessel operating expenses: The vessel operating expenses decreased by $2.8 million to $34.6 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2024, compared to the $37.4 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to the sale of Golar Seal in late March 2023 and increased cost on the Acquired Vessels as these were purchased without inventory in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Administrative expenses: The administrative expenses decreased by $1.5 million to $11.3 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2024 compared to $12.9 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to non-recurring legal, professional and audit fees associated with the Company's listing on the New York Stock Exchange during the six month period ended June 30, 2023.

Other non-operating income: Other non-operating income of $42.5 million was attributable to the gain on sale of the Golar Seal vessel on March 22, 2023 for the six month period ended June 30, 2023. No similar income was earned during the six month period ended June 30, 2024.

Interest income: Interest income decreased by $1.2 million to $3.1 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2024 compared to $4.3 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to a decrease in amounts held in fixed deposits for the six month period ended June 30, 2024.

Interest expense: The interest expense decreased by $0.5 million to $38.9 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2024, compared to $39.3 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to a reduction in the fixed interest rate margin rate component of one of our debt facilities.

Gains on derivative instruments: Gains on derivative instruments represents mark-to-market income on interest rate swaps. Net gains on derivative instruments for the six month period ended June 30, 2024 amounted to a net gain of $15.4 million ($9.1 million unrealized gains on derivative instruments and $6.3 million realized gains) compared to net gain of $10.7 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2023 ($6.4 million unrealized gains on derivative instruments and $4.3 million realized gains).

Other financial items, net: Other financial items, net, increased by $0.6 million mainly due to increased debt financing arrangement fees amounted to $1.5 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2024 compared to $0.8 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2023.

Average daily TCE rate: The average daily TCE rate of $77,800 for the six month period ended June 30, 2024, is 6% lower than the average daily TCE rate of $82,500 for the six month period ended June 30, 2023. This movement is in-line with the decrease in time and voyage charter revenues.

B. Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities for the periods indicated:


	Six Months Ended June, 30
(in thousands of $)	2024	2023	Change	% Change
Net cash provided by operating activities	81,369	117,581	(36,212)	(31)%
Net cash (used in) / provided by investing activities	(25,377)	182,996	(208,373)	(114)%
Net cash used in financing activities	(106,829)	(120,207)	13,378	(11)%
Net (decrease) / increase in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash	(50,837)	180,370	(231,207)	(128)%
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at beginning of period	137,338	133,077	4,261	3%
Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash at end of period	86,501	313,447	(226,946)	(72)%

Net cash provided by operating activities

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $36.2 million to $81.4 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2024 compared to $117.6 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to:

•Higher expenditure as a result of a scheduled dry dock during the six month period ended June 30, 2024; and

•Movement in changes in operating assets and liabilities mainly due to the general timing of working capital which resulted in a decrease in cash provided by operating activities for the six month period ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023.

Net cash (used in) / provided by investing activities

The net cash used in investing activities of $25.4 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2024 is comprised of:

•$22.5 million additions to newbuilds mainly attributable to the Newbuild Vessels shipyard installments; and

•$2.7 million additions to vessels relating to advance payments for retrofitting and upgrade costs relating to certain of our vessels;

The net cash provided by investing activities of $183.0 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2023 pertained to cash consideration received from the disposal of the Golar Seal vessel in March 2023.

Net cash used in financing activities

The net cash used in financing activities of $106.8 million during the six month period ended June 30, 2024 is comprised of:

•$58.0 million debt repayments;

•$44.0 million cash dividends paid to shareholders; and

•$4.8 million of financing fees relating to the $520 million term loan facility.

The net cash used in financing activities of $120.2 million during the six month period ended June 30, 2023 is comprised of:

•$144.8 million debt repayments, including $88 million for the Golar Seal related debt;

•$43.5 million cash dividends paid to shareholders; and

•$1.9 million of financing fees relating to the increased borrowing capacity of the $570 million bank facility.

This was partially offset by:

•$70.0 million of proceeds from the $570 million bank facility.

Contractual Obligations

The following table sets forth our contractual obligations for the periods indicated as at June 30, 2024:


(in millions of $)	Total Obligation	Remainder of 2024	Due in 2025-2026	Due in 2027-2028	Due Thereafter
CoolCo short-term and long-term debt(1)(2)	948.7	78.4	153.7	448.4	268.2
VIE short-term and long-term debt	60.7	60.7	—	—	—
Interest commitments on long-term debt(3)	175.6	29.0	97.4	42.4	6.8
Operating lease obligations	3.2	0.5	1.2	1.0	0.5
Total	1,188.2	168.6	252.3	491.8	275.5

(1) The obligations under long-term and short-term debt above are presented gross of deferred finance charges and exclude interest.

(2) The future loan repayments comprise repayments under the $570 million bank facility, the $520 million term loan facility and the Newbuild Vessels pre-delivery facility.

(3) Our interest commitment on our short-term and long-term debt is calculated based on Secured Overnight Financing Rates ("SOFR") and takes into account our various margin rates and interest rate swaps associated with each financing arrangement.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to various market risks, including interest rate, commodity price and foreign currency exchange risks. The following analysis provides quantitative information regarding our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk. There are certain shortcomings inherent in the sensitivity analysis presented, primarily due to the assumption that exchange rates change in a parallel fashion and that interest rates change instantaneously.

Interest rate risk

A significant portion of our long-term debt obligation is subject to adverse movements in interest rates. Credit exposures are monitored on a counterparty basis, with all new transactions subject to senior management approval. Certain of our current bank and lease financing agreements bear floating interest rates, based on SOFR. Significant adverse fluctuations in floating interest rates could adversely affect our operating and financial performance and our ability to service our debt.

We have entered into interest rate swap agreements with various financial institutions to reduce the interest rate risk associated with fluctuations and exposure to changes in interest rates associated with our financing agreements. As of June 30, 2024, the interest exposure for our $570 million bank facility and $520 million facility has been hedged at 70% at an average fixed rate of 3.42%, which has a notional principal of $633.4 million. These swap agreements, maturing in February 2027, and May, 2029, follow the amortization profile of the $570 million bank facility and $520 million facility, respectively. We may enter into additional financial instruments to manage our exposure to interest rates.

Foreign currency risk

The majority of our transactions, assets and liabilities are denominated in U.S. dollars, our functional currency. Periodically, we may be exposed to foreign currency exchange fluctuations as a result of expenses paid by certain subsidiaries in currencies other than U.S. dollars, for instance British Pounds, in relation to our administrative office in the U.K. and Norwegian Kroner, Euros and Malaysian Ringgit, for operating expenses and capital expenditure projects.

We operate principal technical and operations offices in Norway, where the majority of expenses are incurred in NOK. Based on our NOK administrative expenses incurred during the first half of 2024, a 10% depreciation of the U.S. dollar against NOK would have increased our expenses for this period by $0.5 million.

The base currency of the majority of our seafaring officers’ remuneration was the Euro. Based on the crew costs incurred during the first half of 2024, a 10% depreciation of the U.S. dollar against the Euro would have increased our crew cost for this period by $1.1 million.

Inflation risk

Inflation has had a modest impact on operating or other expenses; our contracts do not generally contain inflation-adjustment mechanisms and we are subject to risks related to inflation. We do not consider inflation to be a significant risk to costs in the current and foreseeable future economic environment. However, should the world economy continue to be affected by inflationary pressures this could result in increased operating and financing costs.

Credit risk

There is a concentration of credit risk with respect to cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash to the extent that substantially all of the amounts are deposited with either Nordea Bank of Finland PLC, DNB ASA, Danske Bank A/S, SMBC Credit Agricole and Citibank. However, we believe this risk is remote, as these banks are established and reputable establishments with no prior history of default.

Operational Risk

The operation of a liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) carriers (“LNGCs”) 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 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 LNGCs suffer damage, they may need to be repaired at a dry docking facility. The costs of dry-dock repairs are unpredictable and may be substantial. We may have to pay unexpected dry docking 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.

At a commercial level, additional operational risks include the ability to secure employment contracts on reasonable terms for our vessels and obtaining financing and working capital on reasonable terms.

COOL COMPANY LTD.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. GENERAL

The Cool Company Ltd. (“CoolCo” or the “Company”) is a private limited liability company incorporated in 2018 under the laws of Bermuda. In the period from the incorporation of CoolCo in October 2018 until early 2022 when the transactions described below occurred, the operations of CoolCo were considered insignificant. Beginning in 2022, CoolCo started engaging in the acquisition, ownership, operation and chartering of liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) carriers (“LNGCs”), and the operation of third party fleets under management agreements. The Company is currently listed on the Euronext Growth Oslo and New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "CLCO".

As used herein and unless otherwise required by the context, the terms “CoolCo”, the “Company”, “we”, “our”, “us” and words of similar import refer to CoolCo or any one or more of its consolidated subsidiaries, or to all such entities.

References to “QPSL” refer to Quantum Pacific Shipping Ltd. and to any one or more of its subsidiaries. References to “EPS” refer to EPS Ventures Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of QPSL.

As of June 30, 2024, CoolCo’s owned fleet comprised of eleven LNGCs, including seven modern tri-fuel diesel electric (“TFDE”) vessels we acquired from Golar LNG Limited (“Golar”) and four vessels, comprising of two modern 2-stroke and two TFDE, acquired from Quantum Crude Tankers Ltd, an affiliate of EPS. CoolCo managed four vessels (including both LNGCs and Floating Storage and Regasification Units (“FSRUs”)) for third parties.

A.Acquisitions from Golar LNG Limited

Golar Shipping and Vessel Management (“GSVM” or "Predecessor”) was a carve-out business of Golar. GSVM was engaged in the acquisition, ownership, operation and chartering LNGCs, previously reported within the 'Shipping' segment by Golar, and the operation of third-party vessels under management agreements, previously reported within the 'Corporate and other' segment by Golar. On January 26, 2022, CoolCo entered into various agreements with Golar, including:

1) Vessel SPA: CoolCo and Golar entered into the Vessel SPA, as amended on February 25, 2022, pursuant to which CoolCo acquired all of the outstanding shares of nine of Golar’s wholly-owned subsidiaries on various dates in March and April 2022. Eight of these entities are each the registered or disponent owner or lessee of the following modern TFDE LNG carriers: Golar Seal, Golar Crystal, Golar Ice, Golar Bear, Golar Frost, Golar Glacier, Golar Snow and Golar Kelvin (the "Original Vessels"), each of which operated, as of the acquisition date, under pre-existing time charters of various durations with major energy, utility and commodity trader counterparties. The ninth subsidiary, The Cool Pool Limited, is the entity responsible for the commercial marketing of these LNG carriers. CoolCo sold one of the TFDE LNG carriers, Golar Seal, in March 2023.

The purchase price for each vessel under the Vessel SPA was $145 million per vessel, subject to working capital and debt adjustments. Each acquisition of Golar’s subsidiaries closed on phased completion dates corresponding with the date that the respective Golar subsidiary debt was either refinanced with CoolCo’s $570 million Senior Secured Sustainability Linked Amortizing Term Loan (as described further below, for six of the Golar subsidiaries acquired) or assumed by CoolCo (for two of the Golar subsidiaries acquired, lender consent was obtained for the change of control of the existing sale and leaseback arrangements for the vessels Golar Ice and Golar Kelvin, further described in Note 5 herein), which were all subject to customary conditions precedent. CoolCo’s acquisitions closed on various dates from March 3, 2022 to April 5, 2022.

2) Revolving Credit Facility: CoolCo and Golar also entered into a Revolving Credit Facility (the "RCF") for up to $25.0 million (with a maturity date of January 2024, a fixed interest rate of 5% and a commitment fee of 50 basis points on the undrawn amount) to fund CoolCo’s working capital requirements. On May 28, 2023, CoolCo terminated the RCF and no further commitment fee shall be payable from this date.

3) Transitional Services Agreement: CoolCo and Golar entered into a Transitional Services Agreement (the "TSA"), which was subsequently replaced with the Administrative Services Agreement (the "ASA") pursuant to which Golar provided corporate administrative services to CoolCo for a fixed daily fee. The ASA expired on June 30, 2023.

4) ManCo Agreement: Pursuant to the agreement, CoolCo and Golar agreed that following the conclusion of an internal reorganization of Golar’s management organization, CoolCo acquired Golar’s LNGC and FSRU management organization on June 30, 2022.

F-8

On January 26, 2022, CoolCo authorized the issuance of 398,990,000 additional common shares at $1 par value, increasing the total number of authorized common shares to 400,000,000. These additional common shares authorized for issuance have the same rights as the issued and outstanding common shares prior to such date.

On February 17, 2022, CoolCo entered into a Senior Secured Sustainability Linked Amortizing Term Loan of $570.0 million (with a maturity date of March 2027 and an initial interest rate of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 275 basis points) with a syndicate of banks, which CoolCo drew-down contemporaneously with the respective vessel acquisitions to refinance Golar’s existing financing relating to certain of the vessels acquired pursuant to the Vessel SPA, as discussed above.

In February 2022, CoolCo sold 27.5 million common shares at a price of $10.00 per share raising proceeds of $275 million (net: $266.7 million) in a private placement (the “Private Placement”). The proceeds were also used to finance the acquisition of the Original Vessels. As a result of the Private Placement, subsequent acquisitions of CoolCo shares from Golar, EPS at the time became the largest shareholder with 37.5% of CoolCo’s common shares. Golar held 31.3% of the common shares and public shareholders held the remaining common shares. The common shares were listed on Norwegian Over-The-Counter Market (N-OTC) immediately following completion of the Private Placement. On February 22, 2022, CoolCo completed its listing of common shares on the Euronext Growth Oslo. Golar determined that it relinquished control of CoolCo on January 26, 2022.

On June 30, 2022, CoolCo entered into various agreements (the "ManCo SPA") with Golar to purchase Golar's LNG carrier and FSRU management organization. Golar and CoolCo entered into the ManCo SPA (as contemplated in the ManCo Agreement), pursuant to which CoolCo acquired four of Golar's wholly-owned subsidiaries, including agreements to manage third parties' fleets of LNG carriers and FSRUs. Following completion of the transactions contemplated under the ManCo SPA, the employees of such entities became CoolCo employees.

The aggregate amount of purchase consideration under the Vessel SPA and ManCo SPA was $346.2 million. This was comprised of $127.9 million in the form of shares in the Company issued to Golar on each respective entity acquisition date pursuant to Vessel SPA, $211.7 million net cash from acquisition-related refinancing via the Company’s $570 million Senior Secured Sustainability Linked Amortizing Term Loan which was drawn-down contemporaneously with each respective vessel acquisition and Vessel SPA working capital adjustments and the ManCo SPA purchase price of approximately $6.6 million, including working capital adjustments, which was paid in cash. Golar and CoolCo also entered into an ASA, which replaced the TSA, for the provision of IT, accounting, treasury, finance operations and other corporate overhead functions from July 1, 2022 to June 30,2023. The ASA expired on June 30, 2023.

The Company accounted for the acquisitions pursuant to Vessel SPA and ManCo SPA as asset acquisitions.

B. Acquisition from Quantum Crude Tankers Ltd, an affiliate of EPS

On November 10, 2022, pursuant to the Master Sale Agreement (“MSA”), we acquired four special purpose vehicles (the “Acquired Vessel SPVs”) with contracted LNG carriers, the 2021 built 2-stroke Kool Orca, the 2020 built 2-stroke Kool Firn, and the 2015 built TFDE vessels Kool Boreas and Kool Baltic (together the “Acquired Vessels”), from Quantum Crude Tankers Ltd (“QCT”), an affiliate of EPS for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $662.8 million.

In connection with the acquisition, the Company completed a private placement of shares in November 2022 consisting of (i) a primary offering of new shares in the Company and (ii) a secondary offering of existing shares by Golar (the ‘‘Second Private Placement’’). The Company raised gross proceeds equivalent to approximately $170 million (net: $166.0 million) through an issuance of 13,678,462 new shares, and Golar sold 8,046,154 existing shares for approximately $100 million to EPS. The shares sold in the Second Private Placement were placed at a price per new share of NOK 130. Upon completion of this private placement, the Company had a total of 53,688,462 outstanding shares with a par value $1.00 each with EPS acquiring 10,789,728 additional shares as part of the Second Private Placement.

We financed the purchase price of the Acquired Vessels with the net proceeds of the Second Private Placement and assumed debt of $520.0 million (Note 15), resulting in a net cash consideration of $135.2 million.

F-9

On November 3, 2022, in connection with the Acquired Vessel acquisitions described above, the Company also entered into an option agreement with an affiliate of EPS to acquire newbuild contracts for a further two 2-stroke LNG carriers that are scheduled to be delivered in the second half of 2024. The option on these two vessels was exercised on June 28, 2023 (Note 12) and the total purchase consideration under the option agreement was approximately $235 million per vessel.

The Original Vessels we acquired pursuant to the Vessel SPA and the Acquired Vessels we acquired pursuant to the MSA are collectively referred to as the ‘‘Vessels’’.

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required under U.S. GAAP in annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, which are included in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

a) BASIS OF PREPARATION

The formation and funding of CoolCo and its acquisition of the eight TFDE LNG carriers, The Cool Pool Limited and the shipping and FSRU management organization from Golar (as described in Note 1) were completed in a series of phased acquisitions. CoolCo commenced meaningful operations from January 27, 2022, the date of the Private Placement from which point it had the means to finance the acquisitions contemplated by the Vessel SPA and ManCo SPA. CoolCo acquired each of the thirteen legal entities from Golar on multiple acquisition dates during the period from March 3, 2022 to June 30, 2022. Refer to Note 1.

b) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are consistent with those followed in the preparation of our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, except for those discussed below and disclosed in Note 3.

Use of estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In assessing the recoverability of our vessels carrying amounts, we make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows, estimates in respect of residual values, charter rates, vessel operating expenses and drydocking requirements.

Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to various claims, lawsuits and complaints. A contingent loss is recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements if the contingency was present at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements, the likelihood of loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If we determine that a reasonable estimate of the loss is a range and there is no best estimate within the range, a contingent loss is recognized for the lower amount within the range. A contingent gain is only recognized when the amount is considered realized or realizable. Legal costs are expensed as incurred.

Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share for the period is computed based on the income available to common shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding. For the periods ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the basic and diluted EPS is determined as follows: Net income attributable to the owners of Cool Company Ltd. divided by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares.

F-10

European Union's Emissions Trading System

The European Union's Emissions Trading System (“EU ETS”) was extended to cover the maritime transportation industry commencing January 1, 2024, with application to all large ships of at least 5,000 gross tonnage. Vessels are in the scope of the scheme for those voyages which begin, end or pass through EU waters. The Company has an obligation to surrender EU ETS emissions allowances (“EUAs”) to the EU for each ton of reported greenhouse gas emissions in the scope of the EU ETS. Where vessels are operated under charters, such EUAs due to the EU are provided to the Company by the charterers pursuant to the terms of the charter hire agreement.

Liabilities in relation to EUAs obligations under the EU ETS, but not yet surrendered, are categorized as “Other current liabilities” if settlement to the EU is due within 12 months of the reporting date, and within “Other non-current liabilities” if settlement is due after 12 months of the reporting date. The liability is based on the the total number of EUAs required to be submitted based on level of emissions occurring on or prior to the period end. For partially completed voyages, the value of the liability is initially estimated using the cost of EUAs that may be required to be submitted at the reporting date, and updated following completion of the voyage. An equal and opposite asset is recognized in relation to EUAs due from charterers, within “Trade accounts and other receivables” assets. EUAs held by CoolCo are categorized as intangible assets, valued at cost. These assets are not subject to amortization but are reviewed for impairment at the reporting date.

As of June 30, 2024, a liability of $1.8 million has been recognized in respect of EUAs obligation due under the EU ETS, together with a related asset for the same amount, receivable from charterers. CoolCo did not hold any EUAs intangible assets at June 30, 2024.

3. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Adoption of new accounting standards

In March 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued ASU 2023-01 Leases (Topic 842): Common Control Arrangements. The amendments require all lessees, including public business entities, to amortize leasehold improvements associated with common control leases over their useful life to the common control group. At the end of the lease, a lessee is required to account for the leasehold improvements as a transfer of assets between entities under common control, meaning they would adjust equity (or net assets for not-for-profit entities). The adoption of ASU 2023-01 had no material impact on our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

In July 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03 Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. This amendment was intended to reduce diversity in practice in the measurement of the fair value of equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions. For entities that have investments in equity securities that are subject to contractual sale restrictions, the contractual restriction on the sale is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security, is not considered when measuring fair value and additional disclosures are required. The adoption of ASU 2022-03 had no material impact on our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

(1) The above table excludes the lessor VIEs that we have leased vessels from under finance leases. The lessor VIEs are wholly-owned, special purpose vehicles (“SPVs”) of financial institutions. While we do not hold any equity investments in these SPVs, we have concluded that we are the primary beneficiary of these lessor VIEs and accordingly have included these entities in our condensed consolidated financial statements. See Note 5 for further details.

F-13

5. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES (“VIEs”)

Lessor VIEs

As part of the original transactions that were entered into by Golar (Note 1), the vessels we acquired under the Vessel SPA had been sold and then subsequently leased back on a bareboat charter for a term of seven to ten years, with options available to the Predecessor to repurchase each vessel at fixed predetermined amounts during their respective charter periods and an obligation to repurchase each vessel at the end of each vessel's respective lease period.

As of June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 we leased two vessels (Kool Ice and Kool Kelvin) from lessor VIEs as part of sale and leaseback agreements with ICBC Finance Leasing Co. Ltd. (“ICBCL”) entities.

The equity attributable to ICBCL in Lessor SPVs is included in non-controlling interests in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations and statement of changes in equity within the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2024. As of June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the carrying values of the vessels Kool Ice and Kool Kelvin are reported under “Vessels and equipment, net” in our unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The following table gives a summary of the sale and leaseback arrangements, including repurchase options and obligations.

A.Favorable Contract Intangible Assets

As part of the acquisition of the Original Vessels TFDE LNG carriers pursuant to the Vessel SPA and the four acquired vessels pursuant to the MSA which were both accounted for as asset acquisitions, the Company remeasured the below / above market fair values of the existing associated time charter party (TCP) contracts that were acquired across the fleet in the pooling arrangement at the respective acquisition dates.

The favorable TCP contracts are included under intangible assets and unfavorable TCP contracts are included as liabilities. As of June 30, 2024, the net book value of favorable contract intangible assets, net of $3.8 million is included within "non-current assets". As of December 31, 2023, the net book value of favorable contract intangible assets, net of $4.3 million is included within "non-current assets". The carrying amount of the unfavorable contracts liabilities of $15.4 million and $79.6 million ($17.0 million and $87.4 million as of December 31, 2023) are included within “other current liabilities” (Note 16) and "other non-current liabilities" (Note 17), respectively.

The net amortization income for the six month period ended June 30, 2024 amounted to $9.0 million ($17.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023), representing $9.5 million amortization income of unfavorable contract liabilities as of June 30, 2024 ($20.6 million as of December 31, 2023) net of $0.5 million amortization expense of favorable contract intangible assets as of June 30, 2024 ($3.0 million as of December 31, 2023).

Senior Secured Sustainability Linked Amortizing Term Loan

On February 17, 2022, we entered into a senior secured sustainability linked amortizing term loan (the “$570 million bank facility”), which refinanced the debt relating to six of the Original Vessels acquired from Golar, of up to $570.0 million with a maturity date of March 2027 and an initial interest rate of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 275 basis points with a syndicate of banks, which CoolCo drew-down contemporaneously with the acquisition. The margin will decrease by 5 basis points if specified sustainability performance targets with respect to vessel efficiency ratios are met, or increase to 5 basis points if such targets are not met. Such targets lower each year from 2022 to 2026. In relation to the vessel disposal on March, 22, 2023, we made a prepayment of $88.0 million of debt associated with the Golar Seal.

On June 28, 2023, lender approval was granted for an increase in the debt principal amount of $70 million and a reduction in the $570 million bank facilities interest rate margin from 275 basis points to 225 basis points. The additional debt funding was drawn on June 30, 2023, to fund the conversion of five vessels, including retrofits of sub-coolers for LNG boil-off reliquefaction. The changes in terms of the debt was assessed and accounted for as a debt modification.

F-19

As of June 30, 2024, the outstanding balance under the $570 million bank facility amounted to $466.2 million.

$520.0 million term loan facility

On November 10, 2022, in connection with the MSA CoolCo assumed the $520.0 million term loan facility (the "$520 million term loan facility") secured by the four SPVs related to the acquired LNG carriers, Kool Orca, Kool Firn, Kool Boreas and Kool Baltic. The facility matures in May 2029 and carries interest rate based on SOFR plus a margin of 200 basis points.

On March 22, 2024, the $520.0 million term loan facility was amended for a $200 million upsize (on a delayed drawdown basis) in anticipation of the maturity of the two existing sale & leaseback facilities during the first quarter of 2025. The amendment also includes a reduction in the minimum free cash restriction.

As of June 30, 2024, the balance outstanding under the $520.0 million term loan facility amounted to $442.5 million. Pursuant to this facility, CoolCo entered into a guarantee in favor of the lenders.

Newbuild Vessel pre-delivery facility

In October 2023, we entered into agreements with Huaxia Financial Leasing Co. Ltd ("Huaxia") for a pre-delivery credit facility and post-delivery sale and leaseback financing for the Kool Tiger and Kool Panther newbuild vessels (Note 12) scheduled to be delivered to CoolCo towards the end of 2024 from Hyundai Samho Heavy Industries in Republic of Korea.

Under the pre-delivery credit facility, we entered into an agreement with Huaxia to lend us a minimum of 20% and subject to the Company entering into a committed charter contract up to 32.5% of the shipyard price for the Newbuild Vessels. This pre-delivery credit facility is non-amortizing with the principal payable upon delivery of each Newbuild Vessel and the sale of the Newbuild Vessels to a subsidiary of Huaxia under the sale and leaseback arrangement. The pre-delivery facility bears an initial interest rate of SOFR plus a fixed margin of 260 basis points.

As of June 30, 2024, $40.0 million was drawn under the pre-delivery credit facility. As of June 30, 2024, we were in compliance with the financial covenants and obligations under the facility agreement.

Debt restrictions

Many of our debt agreements contain operating and financing restrictions and covenants, which require compliance with certain financial ratios. Such ratios include, but are not limited to, current assets to current liabilities, minimum net worth, minimum value-adjusted equity ratio and minimum free cash restrictions. Further, dividend payments are subject to compliance with such financial covenants and there being no existing events of default.

As of June 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all covenants under our existing debt and lease agreements.

18. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Interest rate risk management

In certain situations, we may enter into financial instruments to reduce the risk associated with fluctuations in interest rates. We

have entered into swaps that convert floating rate interest obligations to fixed rates, which, from an economic perspective, hedge our interest rate exposure. We do not hold or issue instruments for speculative or trading purposes. The counterparties to such contracts are major banking and financial institutions. Credit risk exists to the extent that the counterparties are unable to perform under the contracts; however we do not anticipate non-performance by any counterparties.

We manage our debt portfolio with interest rate swap agreements in U.S. dollars to achieve an overall desired position of fixed and floating interest rates. The following table summarizes the terms of interest rate swaps as of June 30, 2024:

Interest rate swaps:

Fair values of financial instruments

We recognize our fair value estimates using a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to measure fair value. The fair value hierarchy has three levels based on reliability of inputs used to determine fair value as follows:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and 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.

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

F-21

The carrying value and estimated fair value of our financial instruments were as follows:


		June 30, 2024		December 31, 2023
(in thousands of $)	Fair value hierarchy	Carrying value	Fair value	Carrying value	Fair value
Non-derivatives:
Cash and cash equivalents(1)	Level 1	84,362	84,362	133,496	133,496
Restricted cash and short-term deposits	Level 1	1,676	1,676	3,842	3,842

Current portion of long-term debt and short-term debt (3) (4)	Level 2	(177,570)	(177,570)	(196,305)	(196,305)

Interest rate swap assets (5)	Level 2	14,164	14,164	5,978	5,978
Interest rate swap liabilities (5)	Level 2	—	—	933	933

(1) The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, which are highly liquid, is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

(2) The carrying values of trade accounts receivable and trade accounts payable approximate fair values because of the near term maturity of these instruments.

(3) The carrying amounts of our short-term debt approximate their fair values because of the near term maturity of these instruments.

(4) Our debt obligations are recorded at amortized cost in the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The amounts presented in the table above, are gross of the deferred charges amounting to $7.1 million as of June 30, 2024 (December 31, 2023: $5.6 million).

(5) Derivative assets are presented within other non-current assets on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet. Derivative liabilities are presented within other current liabilities on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:

•The estimated fair value for floating long-term debt is considered to be equal to the carrying value since it bears variable interest rates, which are adjusted on a quarterly basis. The fair value measurement of a liability must reflect the non-performance of the entity.

•The fair value of our derivative instruments is the estimated amount that we would receive or pay to terminate the agreements at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and our credit worthiness and of our swap counterparty. The mark-to-market gain or loss on our interest rate swaps are not designated as hedges for accounting purposes for the period and are reported within the statement of operations caption "Gain on derivative instruments”.

•The credit exposure of interest rate swap agreements is represented by the fair value of contracts with a positive fair value at the end of each period, reduced by the effects of master netting agreements. It is our policy to enter into master netting agreements with the counterparties to derivative financial instrument contracts, which give us the legal right to discharge all or a portion of amounts owed to that counterparty by offsetting them against amounts that the counterparty owes to us.

Foreign currency risk

Concentration of risk

F-22

There is a concentration of credit risk with respect to cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash to the extent that substantially all of the amounts are deposited with either Nordea Bank of Finland PLC, DNB ASA, Danske Bank A/S, SMBC, Credit Agricole and Citibank. However, we believe this risk is remote, as they are established and reputable establishments with no prior history of default.

GENERAL	Jun. 30, 2024
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
GENERAL	GENERAL The Cool Company Ltd. (“CoolCo” or the “Company”) is a private limited liability company incorporated in 2018 under the laws of Bermuda. In the period from the incorporation of CoolCo in October 2018 until early 2022 when the transactions described below occurred, the operations of CoolCo were considered insignificant. Beginning in 2022, CoolCo started engaging in the acquisition, ownership, operation and chartering of liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) carriers (“LNGCs”), and the operation of third party fleets under management agreements. The Company is currently listed on the Euronext Growth Oslo and New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "CLCO". As used herein and unless otherwise required by the context, the terms “CoolCo”, the “Company”, “we”, “our”, “us” and words of similar import refer to CoolCo or any one or more of its consolidated subsidiaries, or to all such entities. References to “QPSL” refer to Quantum Pacific Shipping Ltd. and to any one or more of its subsidiaries. References to “EPS” refer to EPS Ventures Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of QPSL. As of June 30, 2024, CoolCo’s owned fleet comprised of eleven LNGCs, including seven modern tri-fuel diesel electric (“TFDE”) vessels we acquired from Golar LNG Limited (“Golar”) and four vessels, comprising of two modern 2-stroke and two TFDE, acquired from Quantum Crude Tankers Ltd, an affiliate of EPS. CoolCo managed four vessels (including both LNGCs and Floating Storage and Regasification Units (“FSRUs”)) for third parties. A.Acquisitions from Golar LNG Limited Golar Shipping and Vessel Management (“GSVM” or "Predecessor”) was a carve-out business of Golar. GSVM was engaged in the acquisition, ownership, operation and chartering LNGCs, previously reported within the 'Shipping' segment by Golar, and the operation of third-party vessels under management agreements, previously reported within the 'Corporate and other' segment by Golar. On January 26, 2022, CoolCo entered into various agreements with Golar, including: 1) Vessel SPA: CoolCo and Golar entered into the Vessel SPA, as amended on February 25, 2022, pursuant to which CoolCo acquired all of the outstanding shares of nine of Golar’s wholly-owned subsidiaries on various dates in March and April 2022. Eight of these entities are each the registered or disponent owner or lessee of the following modern TFDE LNG carriers: Golar Seal, Golar Crystal, Golar Ice, Golar Bear, Golar Frost, Golar Glacier, Golar Snow and Golar Kelvin (the "Original Vessels"), each of which operated, as of the acquisition date, under pre-existing time charters of various durations with major energy, utility and commodity trader counterparties. The ninth subsidiary, The Cool Pool Limited, is the entity responsible for the commercial marketing of these LNG carriers. CoolCo sold one of the TFDE LNG carriers, Golar Seal, in March 2023. The purchase price for each vessel under the Vessel SPA was $145 million per vessel, subject to working capital and debt adjustments. Each acquisition of Golar’s subsidiaries closed on phased completion dates corresponding with the date that the respective Golar subsidiary debt was either refinanced with CoolCo’s $570 million Senior Secured Sustainability Linked Amortizing Term Loan (as described further below, for six of the Golar subsidiaries acquired) or assumed by CoolCo (for two of the Golar subsidiaries acquired, lender consent was obtained for the change of control of the existing sale and leaseback arrangements for the vessels Golar Ice and Golar Kelvin, further described in Note 5 herein), which were all subject to customary conditions precedent. CoolCo’s acquisitions closed on various dates from March 3, 2022 to April 5, 2022. 2) Revolving Credit Facility: CoolCo and Golar also entered into a Revolving Credit Facility (the "RCF") for up to $25.0 million (with a maturity date of January 2024, a fixed interest rate of 5% and a commitment fee of 50 basis points on the undrawn amount) to fund CoolCo’s working capital requirements. On May 28, 2023, CoolCo terminated the RCF and no further commitment fee shall be payable from this date. 3) Transitional Services Agreement: CoolCo and Golar entered into a Transitional Services Agreement (the "TSA"), which was subsequently replaced with the Administrative Services Agreement (the "ASA") pursuant to which Golar provided corporate administrative services to CoolCo for a fixed daily fee. The ASA expired on June 30, 2023. 4) ManCo Agreement: Pursuant to the agreement, CoolCo and Golar agreed that following the conclusion of an internal reorganization of Golar’s management organization, CoolCo acquired Golar’s LNGC and FSRU management organization on June 30, 2022. On January 26, 2022, CoolCo authorized the issuance of 398,990,000 additional common shares at $1 par value, increasing the total number of authorized common shares to 400,000,000. These additional common shares authorized for issuance have the same rights as the issued and outstanding common shares prior to such date. On February 17, 2022, CoolCo entered into a Senior Secured Sustainability Linked Amortizing Term Loan of $570.0 million (with a maturity date of March 2027 and an initial interest rate of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus 275 basis points) with a syndicate of banks, which CoolCo drew-down contemporaneously with the respective vessel acquisitions to refinance Golar’s existing financing relating to certain of the vessels acquired pursuant to the Vessel SPA, as discussed above. In February 2022, CoolCo sold 27.5 million common shares at a price of $10.00 per share raising proceeds of $275 million (net: $266.7 million) in a private placement (the “Private Placement”). The proceeds were also used to finance the acquisition of the Original Vessels. As a result of the Private Placement, subsequent acquisitions of CoolCo shares from Golar, EPS at the time became the largest shareholder with 37.5% of CoolCo’s common shares. Golar held 31.3% of the common shares and public shareholders held the remaining common shares. The common shares were listed on Norwegian Over-The-Counter Market (N-OTC) immediately following completion of the Private Placement. On February 22, 2022, CoolCo completed its listing of common shares on the Euronext Growth Oslo. Golar determined that it relinquished control of CoolCo on January 26, 2022. On June 30, 2022, CoolCo entered into various agreements (the "ManCo SPA") with Golar to purchase Golar's LNG carrier and FSRU management organization. Golar and CoolCo entered into the ManCo SPA (as contemplated in the ManCo Agreement), pursuant to which CoolCo acquired four of Golar's wholly-owned subsidiaries, including agreements to manage third parties' fleets of LNG carriers and FSRUs. Following completion of the transactions contemplated under the ManCo SPA, the employees of such entities became CoolCo employees. The aggregate amount of purchase consideration under the Vessel SPA and ManCo SPA was $346.2 million. This was comprised of $127.9 million in the form of shares in the Company issued to Golar on each respective entity acquisition date pursuant to Vessel SPA, $211.7 million net cash from acquisition-related refinancing via the Company’s $570 million Senior Secured Sustainability Linked Amortizing Term Loan which was drawn-down contemporaneously with each respective vessel acquisition and Vessel SPA working capital adjustments and the ManCo SPA purchase price of approximately $6.6 million, including working capital adjustments, which was paid in cash. Golar and CoolCo also entered into an ASA, which replaced the TSA, for the provision of IT, accounting, treasury, finance operations and other corporate overhead functions from July 1, 2022 to June 30,2023. The ASA expired on June 30, 2023. The Company accounted for the acquisitions pursuant to Vessel SPA and ManCo SPA as asset acquisitions. B. Acquisition from Quantum Crude Tankers Ltd, an affiliate of EPS On November 10, 2022, pursuant to the Master Sale Agreement (“MSA”), we acquired four special purpose vehicles (the “Acquired Vessel SPVs”) with contracted LNG carriers, the 2021 built 2-stroke Kool Orca, the 2020 built 2-stroke Kool Firn, and the 2015 built TFDE vessels Kool Boreas and Kool Baltic (together the “Acquired Vessels”), from Quantum Crude Tankers Ltd (“QCT”), an affiliate of EPS for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $662.8 million. In connection with the acquisition, the Company completed a private placement of shares in November 2022 consisting of (i) a primary offering of new shares in the Company and (ii) a secondary offering of existing shares by Golar (the ‘‘Second Private Placement’’). The Company raised gross proceeds equivalent to approximately $170 million (net: $166.0 million) through an issuance of 13,678,462 new shares, and Golar sold 8,046,154 existing shares for approximately $100 million to EPS. The shares sold in the Second Private Placement were placed at a price per new share of NOK 130. Upon completion of this private placement, the Company had a total of 53,688,462 outstanding shares with a par value $1.00 each with EPS acquiring 10,789,728 additional shares as part of the Second Private Placement. We financed the purchase price of the Acquired Vessels with the net proceeds of the Second Private Placement and assumed debt of $520.0 million (Note 15), resulting in a net cash consideration of $135.2 million. On November 3, 2022, in connection with the Acquired Vessel acquisitions described above, the Company also entered into an option agreement with an affiliate of EPS to acquire newbuild contracts for a further two 2-stroke LNG carriers that are scheduled to be delivered in the second half of 2024. The option on these two vessels was exercised on June 28, 2023 (Note 12) and the total purchase consideration under the option agreement was approximately $235 million per vessel. The Original Vessels we acquired pursuant to the Vessel SPA and the Acquired Vessels we acquired pursuant to the MSA are collectively referred to as the ‘‘Vessels’’.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
BASIS OF PREPARATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	BASIS OF PREPARATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required under U.S. GAAP in annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, which are included in our annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. a) BASIS OF PREPARATION The formation and funding of CoolCo and its acquisition of the eight TFDE LNG carriers, The Cool Pool Limited and the shipping and FSRU management organization from Golar (as described in Note 1) were completed in a series of phased acquisitions. CoolCo commenced meaningful operations from January 27, 2022, the date of the Private Placement from which point it had the means to finance the acquisitions contemplated by the Vessel SPA and ManCo SPA. CoolCo acquired each of the thirteen legal entities from Golar on multiple acquisition dates during the period from March 3, 2022 to June 30, 2022. Refer to Note 1. b) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are consistent with those followed in the preparation of our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, except for those discussed below and disclosed in Note 3. Use of estimates The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions affecting the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. In assessing the recoverability of our vessels carrying amounts, we make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows, estimates in respect of residual values, charter rates, vessel operating expenses and drydocking requirements. Contingencies In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to various claims, lawsuits and complaints. A contingent loss is recognized in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements if the contingency was present at the date of the unaudited condensed financial statements, the likelihood of loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. If we determine that a reasonable estimate of the loss is a range and there is no best estimate within the range, a contingent loss is recognized for the lower amount within the range. A contingent gain is only recognized when the amount is considered realized or realizable. Legal costs are expensed as incurred. Earnings per share Basic earnings per share for the period is computed based on the income available to common shareholders and the weighted average number of shares outstanding. For the periods ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the basic and diluted EPS is determined as follows: Net income attributable to the owners of Cool Company Ltd. divided by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares. European Union's Emissions Trading System The European Union's Emissions Trading System (“EU ETS”) was extended to cover the maritime transportation industry commencing January 1, 2024, with application to all large ships of at least 5,000 gross tonnage. Vessels are in the scope of the scheme for those voyages which begin, end or pass through EU waters. The Company has an obligation to surrender EU ETS emissions allowances (“EUAs”) to the EU for each ton of reported greenhouse gas emissions in the scope of the EU ETS. Where vessels are operated under charters, such EUAs due to the EU are provided to the Company by the charterers pursuant to the terms of the charter hire agreement. Liabilities in relation to EUAs obligations under the EU ETS, but not yet surrendered, are categorized as “Other current liabilities” if settlement to the EU is due within 12 months of the reporting date, and within “Other non-current liabilities” if settlement is due after 12 months of the reporting date. The liability is based on the the total number of EUAs required to be submitted based on level of emissions occurring on or prior to the period end. For partially completed voyages, the value of the liability is initially estimated using the cost of EUAs that may be required to be submitted at the reporting date, and updated following completion of the voyage. An equal and opposite asset is recognized in relation to EUAs due from charterers, within “Trade accounts and other receivables” assets. EUAs held by CoolCo are categorized as intangible assets, valued at cost. These assets are not subject to amortization but are reviewed for impairment at the reporting date. As of June 30, 2024, a liability of $1.8 million has been recognized in respect of EUAs obligation due under the EU ETS, together with a related asset for the same amount, receivable from charterers. CoolCo did not hold any EUAs intangible assets at June 30, 2024.

There is a concentration of credit risk with respect to cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash to the extent that substantially all of the amounts are deposited with either Nordea Bank of Finland PLC, DNB ASA, Danske Bank A/S, SMBC, Credit Agricole and Citibank.
