In the first quarter of 2019, the Partnership made certain changes to its non-GAAP financial measures to more closely align with internal management reporting and annual reporting filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (
SEC
) under Form 20-F. Cash Flow from Vessel Operations (
CFVO
) from Consolidated Vessels and Total CFVO are replaced with Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Total Adjusted EBITDA, respectively, and CFVO from Equity-Accounted Vessels is replaced with Adjusted EBITDA from Equity-Accounted Vessels. Please refer to "Definitions and Non-GAAP Financial Measures" in this release for definitions of these non-GAAP financial measures and information about the changes made.
(1) These are non-GAAP financial measures. Please refer to “Definitions and Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the Appendices to this release for definitions of these terms and reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures as used in this release to the most directly comparable financial measures under United States generally accepted accounting principles (
GAAP
).

First Quarter of 2019 Compared to First Quarter of 2018
GAAP net income (loss) and non-GAAP adjusted net income attributable to the partners and preferred unitholders for the three months ended
March 31, 2019
, compared to the same quarter in the prior year, were positively impacted by: earnings from the 10 liquefied natural gas (
LNG
) carrier newbuildings delivered into the Partnership’s consolidated fleet and equity-accounted joint ventures between February 2018 and January 2019; higher earnings from the
Torben Spirit
due to a higher charter rate on a new three-year charter contract which commenced in December 2018; higher earnings from the
Magellan Spirit,
which is currently
chartered-in from the Partnership’s 52 percent-owned joint venture with Marubeni Corporation (the
Teekay LNG-Marubeni Joint Venture
) and has been employed and chartered-out since October 2018 to March 2019; and higher earnings from the Partnership's seven multi-gas carriers. These increases in earnings were partially offset by lower earnings from the Partnership's conventional tanker fleet for the three months ended March 31, 2019 due to the sales of four conventional tankers between February 2018 and January 2019.
In addition, GAAP net income (loss) attributable to the partners and preferred unitholders was positively impacted in the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, by various items, including a decrease in write-down of vessels, partially offset by increases in unrealized losses on non-designated derivative instruments.
CEO Commentary
“During the first quarter, the Partnership continued to report significant cash flow growth mainly driven by recent newbuild deliveries and the contract start-up of various LNG carriers at higher rates,” commented Mark Kremin, Teekay Gas Group Ltd.’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Looking ahead, we expect contract start-up of four additional LNG carrier newbuildings and the Bahrain LNG terminal in the second half of 2019, which we anticipate will continue to drive further growth in total adjusted EBITDA throughout the rest of 2019 and into 2020.”
Mr. Kremin added, “Despite the near-term weakness in the spot LNG carrier market since the start of the year, we have recently been able to take advantage of the improving medium-term fundamentals by securing multiple attractive charters on our LNG carriers for periods ranging from one to three years. This has allowed us to lock-in charters at attractive rates and maximize utilization, thereby further enhancing our earnings stability and improving our cash flows.”
Mr. Kremin continued, “We remain committed to our balanced capital allocation plan, which returns additional capital to unitholders, including the recent 36 percent cash distribution increase, while also creating equity value through continued delevering of our balance sheet. The new charters that we recently secured are expected to enable Teekay LNG to delever faster and with better visibility, which provides us with greater flexibility to allocate excess capital in the future.”
Summary of Recent Events
Re-chartering Activities
In April 2019, the Partnership secured a three-year, fixed-rate charter contract for the
Magellan Spirit
LNG carrier, which is expected to commence at the end of May 2019, and concurrently extended the charter-in contract of the
Magellan Spirit
from the Teekay LNG-Marubeni Joint Venture to cover the same three-year period.
In May 2019, the Partnership extended its fixed-rate charter contract of the
Polar Spirit
LNG carrier for three additional years at a charter rate in excess of the previous fixed rate. The charter extension commenced on May 7, 2019.
In addition, in May 2019, the Partnership secured one-year, fixed-rate charter contracts on the
Arwa Spirit
and
Marib Spirit
LNG carriers, which are expected to commence mid-June and early-July 2019, respectively, both of which are owned by the Teekay LNG-Marubeni Joint Venture.
Commercial Management Agreement for Multi-Gas Vessels
In February 2019, the Partnership entered into a commercial management agreement with Lauritzen Kosan A/S (
Manager
), a third-party commercial manager, pursuant to which the Manager will commercially manage the Partnership's seven multi-gas vessels. In May 2019, the Partnership completed the transition of the commercial management of all seven multi-gas vessels to the Manager.

|
Liquefied Natural Gas Segment
Income from vessel operations and Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the liquefied natural gas segment for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, were positively impacted primarily by: the deliveries of six wholly-owned LNG carrier newbuildings (the
Magdala
,
Myrina
,
Megara
,
Bahrain Spirit
,
Sean Spirit
and
Yamal Spirit
) between February 2018 and January 2019; higher earnings from the
Torben Spirit
due to an increased charter rate from a new three-year charter contract which commenced in December 2018; and earnings from the
Magellan Spirit
which has been employed on a charter-out basis since October 2018 to March 2019. These increases were partially offset by an increase in off-hire days in the first quarter of 2019 for certain of the Partnership’s LNG carriers due to repairs and a scheduled dry docking.
Equity income and Adjusted EBITDA from equity-accounted vessels for the liquefied natural gas segment for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, were positively impacted primarily by: the deliveries of three LNG carrier newbuildings between January 2018 and January 2019 in the Partnership's joint venture with China LNG Shipping (Holdings) Limited, CETS Investment Management (HK) Co. Ltd. and BW Investments Pte. Ltd. (the
Pan Union Joint Venture
)
, with the Partnership’s ownership interest in these vessels ranging from 20 to 30 percent; and the delivery of the second ARC7 LNG carrier newbuilding in September 2018 in the Partnership’s 50 percent-owned Yamal LNG Joint Venture. These increases were partially offset by the sale of the
S/S Excelsior
in the Partnership’s 50 percent-owned joint venture with Exmar NV (the
Excelsior Joint Venture
) in January 2018. In addition,
GAAP equity income was negatively impacted by unrealized losses of $3.9 million on non-designated derivative instruments in the Partnership’s equity-accounted investments in the first quarter of 2019 compared to gains on designated and non-designated derivative instruments of $10.5 million in the first quarter of 2018, and due to a gain of $5.6 million recognized on the sale of the Partnership's 50 percent investment in the Excelsior Joint Venture during the first quarter of 2018.
Liquefied Petroleum Gas Segment
Loss from vessel operations and Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the liquefied petroleum gas segment for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, were positively impacted by higher earnings from the Partnership's seven multi-gas carriers which earned higher spot revenues during the first quarter of 2019. In addition, GAAP equity loss for the liquefied petroleum gas segment for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was negatively impacted by unrealized losses of $0.5 million compared to unrealized gains of $1.0 million during the same quarter of the prior year on non-designated derivative instruments in the Partnership's equity-accounted investment.
Conventional Tanker Segment
Loss from vessel operations and Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the conventional tanker segment for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, were negatively impacted by the sales of the
Teide Spirit
,
European Spirit
,
African Spirit
and
Toledo Spirit
between February 2018 and January 2019. In addition, loss from vessel operations was positively impacted compared to the same quarter of the prior year due to write-downs of $18.7 million for the
Alexander Spirit
,
European Spirit
and
African Spirit
conventional tankers to their estimated fair values recorded during the first quarter of 2018.
Teekay LNG's Fleet
The following table summarizes the Partnership’s fleet as of May 1, 2019. The Partnership also owns a 30 percent interest in a

Definitions and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes various financial measures that are non-GAAP financial measures as defined under the rules of the SEC. These non-GAAP financial measures which include Adjusted Net Income Attributable to the Partners and Preferred Unitholders, Distributable Cash Flow and, commencing in the first quarter of 2019, Adjusted EBITDA, are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these measures do not have standardized meanings across companies, and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. These non-GAAP measures are used by management, and the Partnership believes that these supplementary metrics assist investors and other users of its financial reports in comparing financial and operating performance of the Partnership across reporting periods and with other companies.
In prior periods, the Partnership reported Cash Flow from Vessel Operations (
CFVO
), as a non-GAAP measure. In the first quarter of 2019, the Partnership made certain changes to its non-GAAP financial measures to more closely align with internal management reporting, annual reporting with the SEC under Form 20-F and metrics used by certain investors. CFVO from Consolidated Vessels and Total CFVO are replaced with Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA and Total Adjusted EBITDA, respectively, for current and comparative periods.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted EBITDA
represents net income (loss) before interest, taxes, and depreciation and amortization and is adjusted to exclude
certain
items whose timing or amount cannot be reasonably estimated in advance or that are not considered representative of core operating performance. Such adjustments include vessel write-downs, gains or losses on sale of vessels and equity-accounted investments, unrealized gains or losses on derivative instruments, foreign exchange gains or losses, amortization of in-process contracts, adjustments for direct financing leases to a cash basis, and certain other income or expenses. Adjusted EBITDA also excludes realized gains or losses on interest rate swaps as management, in assessing the Partnership's performance, views these gains or losses as an element of interest expense and realized gains or losses on derivative instruments resulting from amendments or terminations of the underlying instruments.
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA
represents Adjusted EBITDA from vessels that are consolidated on the Partnership's financial statements.
Adjusted EBITDA from Equity-Accounted Vessels
represents the Partnership's proportionate share of Adjusted EBITDA from its equity-accounted vessels, and as a result, the Partnership does not have the unilateral ability to determine whether the cash generated by its equity-accounted vessels is retained within the entity in which the Partnership holds the equity-accounted investments or distributed to the Partnership and other owners. In addition, the Partnership does not control the timing of any such distributions to the Partnership and other owners. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure used by certain investors and management to measure the operational performance of companies. Please refer to
Appendices C
and
E
of this release for reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) and equity income, respectively, which are the most directly comparable GAAP measures reflected in the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements.
Adjusted Net Income Attributable to the Partners and Preferred Unitholder
s
excludes items of income or loss from GAAP net income (loss) that are typically excluded by securities analysts in their published estimates of the Partnership’s financial results. The Partnership believes that certain investors use this information to evaluate the Partnership’s financial performance, as does management. Please refer to
Appendix A
of this release for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to net income (loss), and refer to footnote (4) of the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) for a reconciliation of adjusted equity income to equity income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure reflected in the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements.
Distributable Cash Flow
(
DCF
) represents GAAP net income adjusted for write-down of vessels, depreciation and amortization expense, deferred income tax and other non-cash items, estimated maintenance capital expenditures, unrealized gains and losses from non-designated derivative instruments, ineffectiveness for derivative instruments designated as hedges for accounting purposes, distributions relating to equity financing of newbuilding installments, distributions relating to preferred units, adjustments for direct financing leases to a cash basis, unrealized foreign currency exchange gains or losses, additional tax indemnification guarantee liability net of portion previously recognized in DCF and the Partnership’s proportionate share of such items in its equity-accounted for investments. Maintenance capital expenditures represent those capital expenditures required to maintain over the long-term the operating capacity of, or the revenue generated by, the Partnership’s capital assets. DCF is a quantitative standard used in the publicly-
traded partnership investment community and by management to assist in evaluating financial performance. Please refer to
Appendix B
of this release for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP measure reflected in the Partnership’s consolidated financial statements.

The three months ended March 31, 2018 comparative figures for vessel operating expenses and general and administrative expenses have been reclassified to conform to the presentation adopted in the current period relating to the classification of certain related party transactions which had the effect of decreasing vessel operating expenses by $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 and an offsetting effect for general and administrative expenses in the same period. There is no impact on income from vessel operations or net loss as a result of this reclassification.

Included in the write-down of goodwill and vessels for the three months ended December 31, 2018 is an impairment charge of $0.8 million relating to the Partnership's goodwill attributable to its LPG segment. The Partnership recorded an aggregate write-down of $5.7 million for the
African Spirit
and
European Spirit
Suezmax tankers for the three months ended March 31, 2018 as the estimated fair values of these vessels had decreased at the time. In addition, the Partnership recorded a write-down of $13.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018 relating to the
Alexander Spirit
conventional tanker as a result of changes in the Partnership's expectations of the vessel's future opportunities after its current contract ends in 2019.

In January 2019 and February 2018, the

were sold and as a result of these sales, the Partnership recorded restructuring charges of $2.2 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018, respectively, relating to seafarer severance costs.

The Partnership’s proportionate share of items within equity income as identified in
Appendix A
of this release is detailed in the table below. By excluding these items from equity income, the Partnership believes the resulting adjusted equity income is a normalized amount that can be used to better evaluate the financial performance of the Partnership’s equity-accounted investments. Adjusted equity income is a non-GAAP financial measure.

For accounting purposes, the Partnership is required to revalue all foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities based on the prevailing exchange rates at the end of each reporting period. This revaluation does not affect the Partnership’s cash flows or the calculation of distributable cash flow, but results in the recognition of unrealized foreign currency translation gains or losses in the Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).
|
Foreign currency exchange loss includes realized losses relating to the amounts the Partnership paid to settle the Partnership’s non-designated cross currency swaps that were entered into as economic hedges in relation to the Partnership’s Norwegian Kroner (
NOK
) denominated unsecured bonds. Foreign currency exchange loss also includes unrealized (losses) gains relating to the change in fair value of such derivative instruments, partially offset by unrealized (losses) gains on the revaluation of the NOK bonds as detailed in the table below:

(7) Following the termination of the capital lease arrangements for the three LNG carriers in Teekay Nakilat Corporation (the
Teekay Nakilat Joint Venture
), the lessor made a determination that additional rentals were due under the leases following a challenge by the UK taxing authority. As a result, during the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Teekay Nakilat Joint Venture recognized tax indemnification guarantee liability of $53.0 million for a total liability of $65.6 million (46.9 million GBP) as at March 31, 2018. During the second and third quarters of 2018, the Teekay Nakilat Joint Venture paid this liability by releasing a $7.0 million cash deposit it had made with the lessor and making a $56.0 million cash payment for the balance, which was based on the GBP/USD foreign currency exchange rates at the time the payments were made.

Upon adoption of the new leasing accounting standard on January 1, 2019, the Partnership’s chartered-in contract for the
Magellan Spirit
previously accounted for as an operating lease is now treated as an operating lease right-of-use asset and an operating lease liability. This resulted in an increase in the Partnership’s assets and liabilities by $19.6 million at March 31, 2019. This adoption related to the
Magellan Spirit
chartered-in contract had no impact on the Partnership’s Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss).

Items affecting net income (loss) include items from the Partnership’s consolidated non-wholly-owned subsidiaries. The specific items affecting net income (loss) are analyzed to determine whether any of the amounts originated from a consolidated non-wholly-owned subsidiary. Each amount that originates from a consolidated non-wholly-owned subsidiary is multiplied by the non-controlling interests’ percentage share in this subsidiary to arrive at the non-controlling interests’ share of the amount. The amount identified as “non-controlling interests’ share of items listed above” in the table above is the cumulative amount of the non-controlling interests’ proportionate share of the other specific items affecting net income (loss) listed in the table.

and
Marib Spirit
LNG carriers; the Partnership’s capital allocation plan and its ability to create equity value and allocate excess capital in the future; and Teekay LNG’s ability to benefit from future LNG fundamentals. The following factors are among those that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties, and that should be considered in evaluating any such statement: potential shipyard and project construction delays, newbuilding specification changes or cost overruns; deliveries of vessels under charter contracts and the commencement thereof; changes in production of LNG or LPG, either generally or in particular regions; changes in trading patterns or timing of start-up of new LNG liquefaction and regasification projects significantly affecting overall vessel tonnage requirements; changes in applicable industry laws and regulations and the timing of implementation of new laws and regulations; the potential for early termination of long-term contracts of existing vessels in the Partnership's fleet; higher than expected costs and expenses; general market conditions and trends, including spot, multi-month and multi-year charter rates; inability of charterers to make future charter payments; the inability of the Partnership to renew or replace long-term contracts on existing vessels; the Partnership’s or the Partnership’s joint ventures’ ability to secure or draw on financings for its vessels; potential lack of cash flow to reduce balance sheet leverage or of excess capital available to allocate; and other factors discussed in Teekay LNG Partners’ filings from time to time with the SEC, including its Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. The Partnership expressly disclaims any obligation to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in the Partnership’s expectations with respect thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.
