A higher percentile is simply a higher value (for P/E, more expensive on earnings — never "better"). Informational only.
Dividend coverage (FY2025)
Exceeded at least one reported measure. In FY2025, FLNG's dividend exceeded at least one reported measure of what it earned or generated (earnings payout 217%, operating-cash-flow payout 115%). A payout above 100% in one year is not necessarily unsustainable, but it is not fully covered by that measure.
- Earnings payout217% dividends / net income
- Operating-cash-flow payout115% dividends / operating cash flow — capital spending was not reported, so this does not subtract it
Coverage derived from reported SEC EDGAR XBRL figures for FY2025 (dividends paid vs. net income and free cash flow, same fiscal year). This describes PAST coverage for one fiscal year — it does not predict whether a dividend will be maintained, raised, or cut, and a one-year payout ratio can be distorted by non-recurring items. Informational only — not financial advice.
How FLEX LNG LTD looks technically
FLEX LNG LTD (FLNG) is trading 7.2% below its 200-day average, the long-term trend line — a long-term downtrend. Its 50-day average crossed above its 200-day average about 299 trading days ago — a "golden cross", a bullish long-term signal. A trend is forming but not yet strong — ADX, a 0–100 trend-strength gauge, is 23 (a reading of 25+ marks a strong trend). Momentum is beaten down — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 24, in oversold territory (below 30). It just made a new 20-day low, its first since 2026-02-27, breaking below its recent trading range. It is 17.2% below its highest point of the past year.

| Distance from the 200-day | it is trading 7.2% below its 200-day average, the long-term trend line — a long-term downtrend | -7.2% |
|---|---|---|
| 50-day moving average | its average price over the last 50 trading days — a short-term trend line — is $31.01 | $31.01 |
| 200-day moving average | its average price over the last 200 trading days — the long-term trend line — is $29.79 | $29.79 |
| Swing structure | its recent peaks and dips disagree — one of them is rising while the other is not, so there is no clean up or down pattern in the swings | mixed — one of the two is not confirming |
| Last swing turn | its last significant turn was a swing high 33 calendar days ago — the swings before that are what the structure reading is measured on | 33 sessions |
| Wave structure | its recent swings can be read as a completed three-part upward correction — a pullback in the A-B-C shape Elliott-wave chartists use; the labelling fails if price closes above 32.975. It is the only labelling that fits, though not with textbook proportions, and it describes the swings already printed, not what comes next. | possible three-wave upward correction, complete (atypical proportions) |

| 14-day RSI | momentum is beaten down — its 14-day RSI (a 0–100 momentum gauge) is 24, in oversold territory (below 30) | 23.6 |
|---|---|---|
| Position in its 14-day range | it is trading near the bottom of its 14-day range ($27.09 to $31.69) — its "stochastic" reading is 12 out of 100, where 0 would mean closing exactly at the 14-session low and 100 exactly at the high. This measures WHERE the price sits inside its recent range, which is a different question from the RSI beside it: RSI is a momentum gauge, measuring how FAST the price has been moving, so a stock can drift quietly to the bottom of its range with an ordinary RSI, or fall sharply and still sit in the middle. It has been climbing within that range over the last few sessions. | 12.2 |
| Since the MACD crossed zero | MACD, a trend-momentum gauge, is in negative territory (momentum leaning bearish) | 21 sessions |

| All-time high | its highest closing price on record is $38.24 (set on 2022-12-01) | $38.24 |
| Given back of the 52-week move | over the past year its closes ranged ($24.34 to $33.27), and it has given back close to two thirds of its rise from last year’s low — 63% of it. Chart-watchers call 61.8%-65% given back the "golden pocket", and this is inside it — for this company that is $27.47 to $27.75. It is watched widely enough that orders cluster there, which is the honest reason it matters; it is not a forecast. | 62.9% |
| From the all-time high | it is 27.7% below its all-time high | -27.7% |
| Nearest price level | it is sitting right on a support level at $27.64 — a price it turned at three times since 2025-08-29, most recently on 2026-06-30. Since 2024-10-21 it has 9 such levels below the current price and 5 above. Levels like these describe where the price has reversed or paused before; they are not a forecast of where it will go. | -0.1% |
| All-time low | its lowest closing price on record is $3.40 (set on 2020-03-19) | $3.40 |
| Above the all-time low | it is 713.2% above its all-time low | +713.2% |
Volatility

| Band width vs its own 6 months | day-to-day price swings are unusually wide versus its own recent history (wider than about 99% of the past ~6 months) | 99th percentile |
|---|---|---|
| Typical daily range | in a typical session it travels about $0.8377 between its high and its low — about 3.0% of its price. That is its "average true range" over the last 14 sessions, which also counts the distance from the previous close, so a day that opens well away from yesterday counts as the large move it was | $0.8377 |
| Bollinger bands (20-day, ±2σ) | most of its recent trading has stayed between about $27.93 and $32.77 — the "Bollinger bands", a range drawn two standard deviations either side of its 20-day average price, which widens when the stock gets more volatile and narrows when it settles | $27.93 – $30.35 – $32.77 |
| Typical daily range (% of price) | its price moves about 3.0% in a typical session — about typical for the companies we cover. This is the average gap between a session's high and low over the last 14 sessions, counting overnight moves, expressed against the current price so it can be compared with companies trading at any price | 3.0% |
| Stretch from the 200-day average | it is trading 2.6 daily ranges below its 200-day average price (7.2% below it in plain percentage terms) — a way of asking how far it has stretched from its own average in units of how far it normally moves in a day, so a calm company and a jumpy one can be compared on the same scale | 2.6 daily ranges below its 200-day average |

Signal agreement
2
| Bullish technical signals | 3 of the 9 technical signals we can compute for it are currently in a bullish state: a "golden cross" — its 50-day average is above its 200-day, its RSI momentum gauge is oversold (a beaten-down reading), near the bottom of its 14-day range (oversold) — these describe past price behaviour, not a forecast | 3 of 9 |
|---|---|---|
| Bearish technical signals | 5 of the 9 technical signals we can compute for it are currently in a bearish state: trading below its 200-day average, a fresh 20-day low, MACD momentum is negative, lagging the market over 6 months, trading below the Ichimoku cloud — these describe past price behaviour, not a forecast | 5 of 9 |
Trend (Ichimoku cloud)
1
| Vs the Ichimoku cloud | trading 9.7% below the Ichimoku cloud — a band drawn from where its own highs and lows sat up to 2026-09-14 and projected forward over today's price, the side traders read as an established downtrend, with the band above acting as the level that would have to be cleared. The band itself is moderate, spanning 2.1% of the share price. | -9.7% |
|---|
Volume-weighted price
1
| Vs this year’s average price paid | the price is 7% below the average price paid so far this year, so the typical buyer over that stretch is under water. That average is $29.84 — a volume-weighted average of daily closes over 196 sessions, not a true tick-by-tick VWAP. | -7.3% |

Wave structure
Its recent swings can be read as a three-part upward correction — the A-B-C shape chartists use for a pullback — now complete.
This labelling fails — stops being a possible reading at all — if it closes above $32.98.
It is the only labelling that fits these swings, though its proportions are not the textbook ones. It was chosen from 3 labellings that survived the rules, counting shorter readings of the same bars.
This reading has stood for 19 trading days, since 2026-09-24.

Insider activity (SEC Form 4)
No open-market insider purchases or sales are on record for FLNG — recent Form 4 activity was compensation-related (awards, option exercises, or tax withholding), not open-market buying or selling.
View full insider trading history → View SEC Form 3/4/5 filingsOnly open-market purchases (SEC code P) and sales (code S) are counted here. Option exercises, vesting/awards, gifts, and shares withheld for taxes are excluded — they are compensation or mechanical, not open-market conviction.

FLNG had 4,316,055 shares of reported short interest as of the 2026-09-30 FINRA settlement date (delayed, bi-monthly; not real-time).
Short interest as a percent of shares outstanding is not shown for FLNG because the newest share count we hold predates that settlement by more than 180 days, and a buyback or issuance in between would move the base. The reported figures above are unaffected.

Reported to FINRA as of the 2026-09-30 settlement date. Short interest is reported to FINRA and published on a delayed, bi-monthly schedule (as of a settlement date, disseminated roughly eight business days later) — it is NOT real-time, does not cover every venue or all US trading, and is not a short-squeeze prediction or investment advice. Days-to-cover is the value FINRA reports; percent of float is not shown because the source file carries no share-count denominator — where a percent appears it is of shares OUTSTANDING, the larger base, and is therefore a floor on percent of float.
