MJM Limited was awarded Follow-On Deal of the Year this summer by shipping industry publication Marine Money Offshore for our work on the Golar LNG Limited $594 million follow-on equity offering in which we played a role as co-counsel to the issuer alongside Seward & Kissel. Latham & Watkins LLP was counsel to the underwriter.
Marine Money Offshore wrote “It should not surprise anyone to learn the winner of 2014’s Follow-on Deal of the Year. The deal involved vision, timing, superior execution and featured a team of professionals with a track record, all of which contributed to the accomplishment. That the deal was big and positioned in 2014’s shipping and offshore sweet spot certainly also added to the excitement.”
