GAAP net loss and non-GAAP adjusted net loss for the second quarter of 2018 compared to the same period of the prior year were primarily affected by lower average spot tanker rates and the expiry of time-charter out contracts for various vessels which subsequently traded in the spot market at lower rates. GAAP net loss in the second quarter of 2017 included an impairment on the Company's investment in Tanker Investments Ltd. (
TIL
).
Compared to the first quarter of 2018, GAAP net loss and non-GAAP adjusted net loss for the second quarter of 2018 were affected by lower average spot tanker rates.

CEO Commentary
“Including our sale-leaseback transaction previously-announced in May, we have signed term sheets for three financings which, upon completion, are expected to increase our net liquidity position by approximately $110 million and extend our debt maturity profile,” commented Kevin Mackay, Teekay Tankers’ President and Chief Executive Officer. “In June 2018, we signed term sheets for a sale-leaseback financing transaction relating to six Aframax tankers and a loan to fund working capital in our revenue sharing arrangement (
RSA
) pooling operations.”
“While OPEC supply cuts and a further drawdown of global oil inventories continued to weigh on crude tanker rates during the second quarter of 2018, our fixed charter cover and full service lightering business continued to support our results,” commented Mr. Mackay. “Looking ahead, while we expect the tanker market to remain under pressure in the near-term, we believe that an inflection point will be reached in the later part of 2018 due to improving demand fundamentals and slowing fleet supply growth resulting from elevated scrapping and a shrinking mid-size tanker orderbook. The improved tanker market is expected to be further boosted by positive demand developments ahead of the new IMO fuel regulations in 2020.”
Summary of Recent Developments
Financing Transactions
In June 2018, Teekay Tankers signed a term sheet for a sale-leaseback financing transaction relating to six modern Aframax tankers, which is in addition to the signed term sheet for a sale-leaseback transaction for seven mid-sized tankers announced in May 2018.
In July 2018, Teekay Tankers signed a term sheet for a loan to finance working capital for the Company's RSA pool management operations.
Upon completion, these three transactions are expected to increase liquidity by approximately $110 million after the repayment of outstanding debt related to the 13 vessels.
These transactions are targeted to be completed in the third quarter of 2018 and remain subject to customary conditions precedent and the execution of definitive documentation.
Secured Additional Fixed-Rate Charter
In July 2018, Teekay Tankers entered into a time charter-out contract with a key customer for one Suezmax tanker for a firm period of 12 months, plus an extension option, which is expected to commence by mid-August 2018. The new charter contract is expected to add approximately $6.4 million in fixed revenues over the initial 12-month period.
Tanker Market
Crude tanker rates remained at cyclical lows in the second quarter of 2018 due to continued OPEC supply cuts and a further drawdown in global oil inventories. OPEC crude oil supply fell to 31.6 million barrels per day (
mb/d
) in April 2018, the lowest level in over three years. The decline in OPEC supply was due to both high compliance with crude oil supply cuts and plummeting output from Venezuela, where supply is at the lowest level since the early 1950s. Firm oil demand, coupled with OPEC supply cuts, resulted in a further decline in global oil inventories during the second quarter of 2018, with OECD inventories falling below the five-year average for the first time since 2014. The large drawdown of global oil inventories seen over the past 18 months has been negative for crude tankers, as it has reduced import demand.
Although the tanker market has endured a very weak first half of the year, the Company remains encouraged by underlying tanker market fundamentals. On the fleet supply side, the global tanker fleet experienced virtually zero net fleet growth in the first six months of 2018. A total of 15.7 million deadweight tonnes (
mdwt
) of vessels were removed from the fleet in the first half of 2018 while 15.8 mdwt of newbuildings entered the fleet. Looking ahead, the Company expects that fleet growth in the remainder of 2018 will remain low due to elevated scrapping levels and a shrinking orderbook for mid-size tankers. The Company is now forecasting approximately 2.5 percent net Suzemax fleet growth and 1.5 percent net Aframax/Long Range 2 (
LR2
) fleet growth in 2018 and approximately 1.5 percent net fleet growth in both fleets during 2019.
Global oil demand remains firm with forecast growth of 1.6 mb/d in 2018 and a further 1.5 mb/d in 2019 (average of IEA, EIA and OPEC forecasts). In response to this strong demand, and given that oil inventories have now fallen below five-year average levels, OPEC recently announced that it will increase oil production in order to keep the markets adequately supplied to prevent oil prices from rising too high. OPEC’s intention is to return to 100 percent compliance with production cuts, having been well above 100 percent through the first six months of the year. This implies an increase in OPEC crude oil production of up to 1 mb/d from current levels. An increase in OPEC oil production through the second half of the year would be positive for tanker demand, although uncertainty remains over the impact of a potential decline in Iranian exports due to U.S. sanctions, which could offset some of these gains.
Looking further ahead, the Company believes the new IMO regulations on sulphur content in bunker fuels due to come into force on January 1, 2020, could be positive for tanker demand. Some of the potential impacts that would benefit the tanker market include:
|
|
|
|
•
|
An increase in crude tanker trade due to increased refinery utilization and throughput in order to produce more low-sulphur fuels;
|
|
|
|
|
•
|
An increase in clean tanker trade due to the increased production of low-sulphur fuel and the need to deliver these fuels to global bunker markets; and
|
|
|
|
|
•
|
Floating storage demand for both clean products (building inventories of low-sulphur fuel prior to 2020) and dirty products (a need to store excess fuel oil post-2020).
|
In summary, the tanker market has gone through a period of very weak freight rates during the first half of 2018, due primarily to OPEC supply cuts and a drawdown in global oil inventories. However, the Company believes that an inflection point will be reached later in 2018 due to improving demand fundamentals and slow fleet supply growth. This is expected to lead to an improved tanker market, further boosted by positive demand developments ahead of the new IMO fuel regulations in 2020.

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 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These non-GAAP financial measures, which include Adjusted Net (Loss) Income, Free Cash Flow, Net Revenues and Cash Flow from Vessel Operations, 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 definitions across companies, and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The Company believes that certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s financial performance, as does management.
Consolidated Financial Measures
Adjusted net (loss) income
excludes items of income or loss from GAAP net income that are typically excluded by securities analysts in their published estimates of the Company’s financial results. The Company believes that certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’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 (loss) income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Cash flow from vessel operations (CFVO)
represents income from operations before depreciation and amortization expense, amortization of in-process revenue contracts, vessel write-downs, and gains or losses on the sale of vessels and equipment. CFVO - Consolidated represents CFVO from vessels that are consolidated on the Company’s financial statements. CFVO - Equity Investments represents the Company’s proportionate share of CFVO from its equity-accounted vessels and other investments. The Company does not control the equity-accounted vessels and investments, and as a result, the Company does not have the unilateral ability to determine whether the cash generated by its equity-accounted vessels and other investments is retained within the entity in which the Company holds the equity-accounted investment or distributed to the Company and other owners. In addition, the Company does not control the timing of such distributions to the Company and other owners. Consequently, readers are cautioned when using total CFVO as a liquidity measure as the amount contributed from CFVO - Equity Investments may not be available to the Company in the periods such CFVO is generated by its equity-accounted vessels and other investments. CFVO is a non-GAAP financial measure used by certain investors and management to measure the operational financial performance of companies. Please refer to
Appendices C
of this release for reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to income from vessel operations and income from vessel operations of equity-accounted investments, respectively, the most directly comparable GAAP measures reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Free cash flow (FCF)
represents net income, plus depreciation and amortization, unrealized losses from derivatives, certain non-cash items, FCF from equity-accounted investments, loss on sales of vessels, and any write-offs or other non-recurring items, less unrealized gains from derivatives, equity income from the equity-accounted investments, gain on sales of vessels and certain other non-cash items. The Company includes FCF from equity-accounted investments as a component of its FCF. FCF from the equity-accounted investments represents the Company’s proportionate share of FCF from its equity-accounted investments. The Company does not control its equity-accounted investments, and as a result, the Company does not have the unilateral ability to determine whether the cash generated by its equity-accounted investments is retained within the entity in which the Company holds the equity-accounted investment or distributed to the Company and other owners. In addition, the Company does not control the timing of such distributions to the Company and other owners. Consequently, readers are cautioned when using FCF as a liquidity measure as the amount contributed from FCF from the equity-accounted investments may not be available to the Company in the periods such FCF is generated by the equity-accounted investments. FCF is a non-GAAP financial measure used by certain investors and management to evaluate the Company’s financial and operating performance and to assess the Company’s ability to generate cash sufficient to repay debt, pay dividends and undertake capital and dry dock expenditures. Please refer to
Appendix B
to this release for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to net (loss) income, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Entities under common control
represent a transfer of a business between entities under common control. As a result, Teekay Tankers consolidated financial statements prior to the date the interests in these entities were actually acquired by the Company are retroactively adjusted to include the results of these entities during the periods they were under common control of Teekay Corporation and had begun operations.
Net revenues
represent revenues less voyage expenses. Because the amount of voyage expenses the Company incurs for a particular charter depends upon the type of the charter, the Company uses net revenues to improve the comparability between periods of reported revenues that are generated by the different types of charters and contracts. The Company principally uses net revenues, a non-GAAP financial measure, because the Company believes it provides more meaningful information about the deployment of the Company's vessels and their performance than does revenues, the most directly comparable financial measure under GAAP.
Important Notice to Reader
Effective January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the new revenue accounting standard, which had no impact on net loss but a material effect on revenues and voyage expenses. The Company previously presented the net allocation for its vessels participating in RSAs as net pool revenues. The Company has determined that it is the principal in voyages its vessels perform that are included in the RSAs. As such, commencing January 1, 2018, revenue from those voyages is presented in voyage charter revenues and the difference between this amount and the Company's net allocation from the RSA is presented as voyage expenses. This had the effect of increasing both voyage charter revenues and voyage expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2018, and March 31, 2018 and the six months ended June 30, 2018 by $67.5 million, $61.3 million, and $128.8 million, respectively.

Prior to May 31, 2017, the Company owned 50 percent of Teekay Tanker Operations Ltd. (
TTOL
) and accounted for this investment using the equity method of accounting. The Company acquired the remaining 50 percent of TTOL on May 31, 2017 from Teekay Corporation, resulting in the Company owning 100 percent of TTOL and consolidating its results. Periods prior to May 31, 2017 have been recast to include 100 percent of TTOL's results on a consolidated basis in accordance with common control accounting as required under GAAP. As a result, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for periods prior to May 2017 has been retroactively adjusted to include the approximately 13.8 million shares of the Company's Class B common stock issued to Teekay Corporation as consideration for the acquisition. The impact of this recasting is referred to herein as the "Entities under Common Control", and such amounts are summarized for the respective periods in Appendix A.

Voyage charter revenues include revenues earned from full service lightering activities. Voyage expenses include certain costs associated with full service lightering activities, which include: short-term in-charter expenses, bunker fuel expenses and other port expenses totaling $22.9 million, $21.4 million and $15.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2018, March 31, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively, and $44.3 million and $35.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2017, respectively.
|
|
|
|
|

|
Other revenues include lightering support and liquefied natural gas services revenue, and pool management fee and commission revenues earned from TTOL.

Commencing January 1, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 as required under GAAP. The Company previously presented the net allocation for its vessels participating in RSAs as net pool revenues. The Company has determined that it is the principal in voyages its vessels perform that are included in the RSAs. As such, commencing January 1, 2018, revenue from those voyages is presented in voyage charter revenues and the difference between this amount and the Company's net allocation from the RSA is presented as voyage expenses. This had the impact of increasing both voyage charter revenues and voyage expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018 and the six months ended June 30, 2018 by $67.5 million, $61.3 million, and $128.8 million, respectively. This change has been adopted prospectively from January 1, 2018.

Includes realized losses and gains relating to interest rate swaps entered into by the Company. For the three months ended June 30, 2018, March 31, 2018 and June 30, 2017, the Company recognized a realized gain on its interest rate swaps of $0.7 million, a realized gain of $0.2 million and a realized loss of $0.3 million, respectively, and a realized gain of $0.9 million and a realized loss of $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. The Company recognized realized gains relating to a time-charter swap agreement of $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and $1.1 million for the six months ended June 30,2017.

Included in equity (loss) income are the Company’s 50 percent interest in the High-Q Investment Ltd. (
High-Q)
joint venture, which owns one VLCC tanker, its 50 percent interest in Gemini Tankers L.L.C. (until March 2018, when the remaining capital was returned to the Company), and its proportionate 11.3 percent share of earnings from its investment in TIL until November 27, 2017, when the Company completed a merger with TIL. From that date, TIL became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and it has been consolidated.

As part of the accounting for the TIL merger, GAAP treats the Company's existing equity investment in TIL as being disposed of at its existing fair value and concurrently repurchased at such fair value, which is included in the cost of the acquisition of the 100 percent controlling interest in TIL. In June 2017, it was determined at that time that recovery of the carrying value of the Company's investment in TIL prior to closing of the merger would be unlikely. Consequently, a non-cash impairment of $28.1 million was required under GAAP to be recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2017 based on the difference between the carrying value of the investment at June 30, 2017 and its fair value based on the TIL share price on that date.

Forward Looking Statements
This release contains forward-looking statements (as defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) which reflect management’s current views with respect to certain future events and performance, including statements regarding: the completion of the Company’s expected sale-leaseback financing transactions and working capital loan, and the effect of the transactions on the Company’s liquidity and future debt maturity profile; future forward revenues; and crude oil and refined product tanker market fundamentals, including the balance of supply and demand in the tanker market, the occurrence and expected timing of a tanker market recovery, the estimated slowdown of growth in the mid-size tanker fleet, the amount of tanker scrapping and newbuild tanker deliveries, estimated growth in global oil demand and supply, future tanker rates, future OPEC oil supply, and estimated impact of IMO 2020 regulations on tanker demand. 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: failure to complete the sale-leaseback financing transactions and working capital loan and/or potential changes to the final terms of the transactions; the potential for early termination of charter contracts of existing vessels in the Company's fleet; the inability of charterers to make future charter payments; the inability of the Company to renew or replace charter contracts; changes in the production of, or demand for, oil or refined products; changes in trading patterns significantly affecting overall vessel tonnage requirements; greater or less than anticipated levels of tanker newbuilding orders and deliveries and greater or less than anticipated rates of tanker scrapping; changes in global oil prices; changes in applicable industry laws and regulations and the timing of implementation of new laws and regulations and the impact of such changes; increased costs; and other factors discussed in Teekay Tankers’ filings from time to time with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations with respect thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.
