of this press release.
- In November and December 2019, the
Company executed two term loan facilities with Hamburg Commercial
Bank AG and Prudential Private Capital, respectively, for
approximately $99.1 million in aggregate. These facilities were
partially drawn in December 2019 and the proceeds were used to
refinance the existing indebtedness on five vessels that were
previously financed under the Company’s KEXIM Credit Facility. The
Company's liquidity increased by approximately $31.0 million in
aggregate as a result of these transactions. There is
currently $1.5 million available to be drawn under the facility
with Hamburg Commercial Bank AG, which is expected to be utilized
to partially finance the purchase and installation of a scrubber on
one of the Company's LR2 tankers.
- In December 2019, the Company drew
down an aggregate of approximately $11.0 million from an upsized
lease financing arrangement with CSSC (Hong Kong) Shipping Company
Limited ("CSSC") to partially finance the purchase and installation
of scrubbers on seven of its vessels.
- As of the date of this press
release, the Company has received commitments from financial
institutions for an additional eight different facilities to
partially finance the purchase and installation of scrubbers on
certain of the Company's vessels. These commitments are
expected to increase the Company's liquidity by approximately
$118.7 million, after the repayment of existing indebtedness.
Subject to the negotiation and execution of definitive
documentation for these facilities, the drawdowns are expected to
occur as the scrubbers are installed throughout the remainder of
2020.
- In December 2019, the Company paid
a quarterly cash dividend with respect to the third quarter of 2019
on the Company's common stock of $0.10 per common share.
- In January 2020, the Company took
delivery of two scrubber-fitted 2020-built MR product tankers (STI
Miracle and STI Maestro) under eight-year bareboat leases.
The leasehold interests in these vessels were acquired as part of
the Company's transaction with Trafigura Maritime Logistics Pte.
Ltd. ( the "Trafigura Transaction") that was announced in September
2019. The bareboat leases have similar terms and conditions
as the original leased vessels in the Trafigura Transaction.
At the Market Share Issuance
Program
In November 2019, the Company entered into the
ATM Program pursuant to which the Company may sell up to $100
million of its common shares, par value $0.01 per
share. As part of the ATM Program, the Company entered into an
equity distribution agreement dated November 7, 2019 (the “Sales
Agreement”), with BTIG, LLC, as sales agent (the “Agent”). In
accordance with the terms of the Sales Agreement, the Company may
offer and sell its common shares from time to time through the
Agent by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the New York
Stock Exchange at market prices, in block transactions, or as
otherwise agreed upon by the Agent and the Company. The Company
intends to use the net proceeds from any sales under the Program
for general corporate and working capital purposes.
No shares have been sold under the ATM Program
through the date of this press release.
Diluted Weighted Number of
Shares
Diluted earnings per share is determined using
the if-converted method. Under this method, the Company assumes
that its Convertible Notes due 2022, which were issued in May and
July 2018, were converted into common shares at the beginning of
each period and the interest and non-cash amortization expense
associated with these notes of $3.7 million and $14.7 million,
respectively, during the three months and year ended December 31,
2019 were not incurred. Conversion is not assumed if the results of
this calculation are anti-dilutive.
For the three months and year ended December 31,
2019, the Company's basic weighted average number of shares were
54,626,119 and 49,857,998, respectively. For the three months
and year ended December 31, 2019, the Company's diluted weighted
average number of shares were 56,780,849 and 51,735,977,
respectively, excluding the impact of the Convertible Notes due
2022, and 62,009,488 and 57,656,484, respectively, under the
if-converted method.
The diluted weighted average number of shares
was anti-dilutive for the year ended December 31, 2019 as the
Company incurred a net loss.
The weighted average number of shares under the
if-converted method was anti-dilutive for the three months and year
ended December 31, 2019.
$250 Million Securities Repurchase
Program
In May 2015, the Company's Board of Directors
authorized a Securities Repurchase Program to purchase up to an
aggregate of $250 million of the Company's securities which, in
addition to its common shares, currently consist of its Unsecured
Senior Notes due 2020 (NYSE: SBNA), which were issued in May 2014,
and Convertible Notes due 2022, which were issued in May and July
2018.
No securities were repurchased under this
program during the fourth quarter of 2019 and through the date of
this press release.
As of the date hereof, the Company has
repurchased a total of $128.4 million of its securities under the
Securities Repurchase Program and has the authority to purchase up
to an additional $121.6 million of its securities. The Company may
repurchase its securities in the open market, at times and prices
that are considered to be appropriate by the Company, but is not
obligated under the terms of the Securities Repurchase Program to
repurchase any of its securities.

In December 2019, the Company executed an agreement with Hamburg
Commercial Bank AG for a senior secured term loan facility of
approximately $43.7 million. A portion of the proceeds of
this facility were used to refinance the existing indebtedness on
two vessels that were previously financed under the KEXIM Credit
Facility (STI Poplar and STI Veneto). There is currently $1.5
million available to be drawn under this facility, which is
expected to be utilized to partially finance the purchase and
installation of a scrubber on one of the Company's LR2 tankers. The
loan is scheduled to be repaid in quarterly aggregate installment
payments of $0.8 million and bears interest at LIBOR plus a margin
of 2.25% per annum. A balloon payment is due upon the
maturity date of November 2024. Approximately $0.3 million of
deferred financing fees were written off as part of the repayment
of the amounts previously borrowed under the KEXIM Credit
Facility. |
(2) |
In November 2019, the Company executed an agreement with Prudential
Private Capital for a senior secured term loan facility of
approximately $55.5 million. This facility was fully drawn in
December 2019 and the proceeds were used to refinance the existing
indebtedness on three vessels that were previously financed under
the KEXIM Credit Facility (STI Clapham, STI Camden and STI
Acton). The loan will be repaid in monthly aggregate
installment payments of $0.5 million and bears interest at LIBOR
plus a margin of 3.00% per annum. A balloon payment is due
upon the maturity date of December 2025. Approximately $0.2
million of deferred financing fees were written off as part of the
repayment of the amounts previously borrowed under the KEXIM Credit
Facility. |
(3) |
In January 2020, the Company took delivery of two scrubber-fitted
2020-built MR product tankers (STI Miracle and STI Maestro) under
eight-year bareboat leases. The leasehold interests in these
vessels were acquired as part of the Trafigura Transaction and a
$68.7 million lease liability was recorded at the commencement date
of these leases, which are being accounted for as lease liabilities
under IFRS 16. |
(4) |
In December 2019, the Company drew down an aggregate of
approximately $11.0 million from its upsized lease financing
agreement with CSSC to partially finance the purchase and
installation of scrubbers on seven of the Company’s vessels.
The upsized portion of the lease financing bears interest at LIBOR
plus a margin of 3.8% per annum, matures two years from the date of
the drawdown and will be repaid in monthly installment payments of
approximately $0.5 million in aggregate. There is currently $1.6
million available under this arrangement, which is expected to be
utilized to partially finance the purchase and installation of a
scrubber on the eighth remaining vessel under this agreement. |

Explanation of Variances on the Fourth
Quarter of 2019 Financial Results Compared to the Fourth Quarter of
2018
For the three months ended December 31, 2019,
the Company recorded a net income of $12.0 million compared to a
net loss of $17.7 million for the three months ended December 31,
2018. The following were the significant changes between the two
periods:
- TCE revenue, a Non-IFRS measure, is
vessel revenues less voyage expenses (including bunkers and port
charges). TCE revenue is included herein because it is a standard
shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare
period-to-period changes in a shipping company's performance
irrespective of changes in the mix of charter types (i.e., spot
voyages, time charters, and pool charters), and it provides useful
information to investors and management. The following table sets
forth TCE revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2019 and
2018:

- TCE revenue for the three months
ended December 31, 2019 increased by $51.9 million to $219.1
million, from $167.2 million for the three months ended December
31, 2018. The increase was the result of quarter over quarter
improvements in TCE revenue per day across all of the Company's
operating segments. Overall average TCE revenue per day
increased to $19,910 per day during the three months ended December
31, 2019, from $15,008 per day during the three months ended
December 31, 2018. The fourth quarter of 2019 reflected
significant improvements in TCE revenue per day, both sequentially,
and as compared to the fourth quarter of 2018. Supply and
demand dynamics shifted favorably during the fourth quarter of
2019, driven by the January 1, 2020 implementation date of the
International Maritime Organization’s ("IMO") low sulfur emissions
standards. The implementation of these standards has impacted
the trade flows of both crude and refined petroleum products which,
combined with favorable supply and demand dynamics, has resulted in
improvements in daily spot market TCE rates across all of the
Company's operating segments during the fourth quarter of
2019.These results were mitigated by several factors including (i)
higher than expected offhire days during the fourth quarter of 2019
as a result of port congestion and delays at the shipyards where
the Company's drydocks, ballast water treatment system and scrubber
installations are taking place, (ii) below-market positioning
voyages both to and from these shipyards as vessels deviated from
their normal trading patterns, and (iii) the purchase and
consumption of higher cost low sulfur fuel in anticipation of the
IMO's January 1, 2020 implementation date for the Company's vessels
that do not yet have scrubbers installed.The increase in TCE
revenue in the fourth quarter of 2019 as compared to the fourth
quarter of 2018 was also affected by an increase in the number of
the Company's vessels to an average of 134.0 operating vessels
during the three months ended December 31, 2019 from an average of
121.9 operating vessels during the three months ended December 31,
2018, which was primarily the result of the acquisition of 15
vessels (11 MRs and four LR2s) in connection with the Trafigura
Transaction in September 2019. This increase was offset by
the redelivery of time chartered-in vessels in the fourth quarter
of 2018 and in the first quarter of 2019.
- Vessel operating costs for the
three months ended December 31, 2019 increased by $14.2 million to
$85.4 million, from $71.2 million for the three months ended
December 31, 2018. This increase was primarily due to the
acquisition of 15 vessels (11 MRs and four LR2s) that were acquired
in connection with the Trafigura Transaction in September
2019. Vessel operating costs per day increased to $6,928 per
day for the three months ended December 31, 2019 from $6,505 per
day for the three months ended December 31, 2018. This
increase was largely due to timing, in addition to various
miscellaneous repairs that were undertaken while certain vessels
were drydocked for scrubber or ballast water treatment system
installations during the period.
- Charterhire expense for the three
months ended December 31, 2019 decreased by $10.6 million to $0.0
million, from $10.6 million for the three months ended December 31,
2018. This decrease was the result of (i) a decrease in the
number of time chartered-in vessels when comparing the three months
ended December 31, 2019 to the three months ended December 31,
2018, and (ii) the implementation of IFRS 16 - Leases beginning on
January 1, 2019. The Company's time and bareboat chartered-in
fleet consisted of 27 bareboat chartered-in vessels for the three
months ended December 31, 2019, which operated for the entire
period. The Company's time and bareboat chartered-in fleet
consisted of an average of 2.9 time chartered-in vessels and 10
bareboat chartered-in vessels for the three months ended December
31, 2018. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had 27 bareboat
chartered-in vessels which are being accounted for under IFRS 16 as
right of use assets and related lease liabilities. Under IFRS 16,
there is no charterhire expense for these vessels as the right of
use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis (through
depreciation expense) over the lease term and the lease liability
is amortized over that same period (with a portion of each payment
allocated to principal and a portion allocated to interest
expense).
- Depreciation expense - owned or
finance leased vessels for the three months ended December 31,
2019 increased slightly by $1.9 million to $46.5 million,
from $44.6 million for the three months ended December 31,
2018. Depreciation expense in future periods is expected to
increase as the Company installs ballast water treatment systems
and/or scrubbers on certain of its vessels in 2020. The Company
expects to depreciate the majority of the cost of this equipment
over each vessel's remaining useful life.
- Depreciation expense - right of use
assets for the three months ended December 31, 2019 was $12.6
million. Depreciation expense - right of use assets reflects
the straight-line depreciation expense recorded during the three
months ended December 31, 2019, as a result of the Company's
transition to IFRS 16 - Leases on January 1, 2019. Right of
use asset depreciation is approximately $0.2 million per vessel per
month for the 10 vessels (seven Handymax and three MR) previously
bareboat chartered-in prior to the Trafigura Transaction in
September 2019. Additionally, as part of the Trafigura
Transaction, the Company acquired the leasehold interests in 15
vessels (11 MR and four LR2), which are being accounted for as
right of use assets under IFRS 16. The right of use asset
depreciation for these vessels is approximately $0.2 million per MR
per month and $0.3 million per LR2 per month. Additionally, in
January 2020, the Company took delivery of two MRs that were
previously under construction and were acquired as part of the
Trafigura Transaction. The right of use asset depreciation for
these vessels is expected to be similar to the MR vessels acquired
in September 2019.
- General and administrative expenses
for the three months ended December 31, 2019, increased by $2.8
million to $15.8 million, from $12.9 million for the three months
ended December 31, 2018. This increase was primarily driven
by compensation expenses, including an increase in restricted stock
amortization. General and administrative expenses in future periods
are expected to reflect a similar run-rate to that which was
incurred in the fourth quarter of 2019.
- Financial expenses for the three
months ended December 31, 2019 decreased by $0.9 million to $47.3
million, from $48.2 million for the three months ended December 31,
2018. The decrease was primarily driven by an increase of
$0.8 million of capitalized interest expense during the three
months ended December 31, 2019 as a result of the Company's
scrubber and ballast water treatment system investments. No
interest was capitalized during the three months ended December 31,
2018.

The effect of potentially dilutive securities relating to the
Company's Convertible Notes due 2022 were excluded from the
computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months
ended December 31, 2019 because their effect would have been
anti-dilutive. The effect of potentially dilutive unvested
shares of restricted stock and the Convertible Notes due 2022 were
excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the
year ended December 31, 2019 because their effect would have been
anti-dilutive. Weighted average shares under the if-converted
method (which includes the potential dilutive effect of the
unvested shares of restricted stock, and the Convertible Notes due
2022) were 62,009,488 and 57,656,484 for the three months and year

Accumulated deficit reflects the impact of the adoption of IFRS 16
- Leases. IFRS 16 amended the existing accounting standards
to require lessees to recognize as of January 1, 2019, on a
discounted basis, the rights and obligations created by the
commitment to lease assets on the balance sheet, unless the term of
the lease is 12 months or less. Accordingly, the standard
resulted in the recognition of right of use assets and
corresponding liabilities, on the basis of the discounted remaining
future minimum lease payments, relating to the existing bareboat
chartered-in vessel commitments for three bareboat chartered-in
vessels, which are scheduled to expire in April 2025. Upon
transition, a lessee shall apply IFRS 16 to its leases either
retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (the "full
retrospective approach") or retrospectively with the cumulative
effect of initially applying IFRS 16 recognized at the date of
initial application (the "modified retrospective approach").
We applied the modified retrospective approach upon transition. The
impact of the application of this standard on the opening balance
sheet as of January 1, 2019 was the recognition of a $48.5
million right of use asset, a $50.7
million operating lease liability and a $2.2
million reduction in retained earnings relating to these three
vessels. |

As described in the preceding sections, on
September 26, 2019, the Company acquired subsidiaries of Trafigura
which have leasehold interests in 19 product tankers under bareboat
charter agreements with subsidiaries of an international financial
institution for aggregate consideration of $803 million. Of
the 19 vessels, 15 (consisting of 11 MRs and four LR2s) were
delivered during 2019, two were delivered in January 2020, and two
MRs are currently under construction. For the delivered
vessels in 2019, the Company assumed the obligations under the
bareboat charter agreements of $531.5 million and issued 3,981,619
shares of common stock at $29.00 per share to a nominee
of Trafigura with an aggregate market value of $115.5
million. For the four vessels under construction as of
September 26, 2019, the Company agreed to assume the commitments on
the bareboat charter agreements of $138.9 million and issued
591,254 shares of common stock at $29.00 per share to a nominee of
Trafigura with an aggregate market value of $17.1 million. The
obligations under the bareboat charter agreements for the
undelivered vessels will be recorded upon the delivery of each
vessel (the lease commencement date).
This transaction represents a significant non-cash transaction
that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2019.

See Non-IFRS Measures section below. |
(2) |
Freight rates are commonly measured in the shipping industry in
terms of time charter equivalent per day (or TCE per day), which is
calculated by subtracting voyage expenses, including bunkers and
port charges, from vessel revenue and dividing the net amount (time
charter equivalent revenues) by the number of revenue days in the
period. Revenue days are the number of days the vessel is owned,
finance leased or chartered-in less the number of days the vessel
is off-hire for drydock and repairs. |
(3) |
Vessel operating costs per day represent vessel operating costs
divided by the number of operating days during the period.
Operating days are the total number of available days in a period
with respect to the owned, finance leased or bareboat chartered-in
vessels, before deducting available days due to off-hire days and
days in drydock. Operating days is a measurement that is only
applicable to our owned, finance leased or bareboat chartered-in
vessels, not our time chartered-in vessels. |

basis, for a period of up to eight years for $8,800 per day.
The sales price was $29.0 million per vessel, and we have the
option to purchase this vessel beginning at the end of the fifth
year of the agreement through the end of the eighth year of the
agreement, at market-based prices. Additionally, a deposit of $4.35
million per vessel was retained by the buyer and will either be
applied to the purchase price of the vessel if a purchase option is
exercised or refunded to us at the expiration of the
agreement. |

The leasehold interests in these vessels were acquired from
Trafigura in September 2019 as part of the Trafigura Transaction
and these vessels are currently under construction at Hyundai
Vinashin Shipyard Co., Ltd. One vessel is expected to be
delivered in March 2020 and one vessel is expected to be delivered
in the third quarter of 2020. |

Non-IFRS Measures
Reconciliation of IFRS Financial Information to Non-IFRS
Financial Information
This press release describes time charter
equivalent revenue, or TCE revenue, adjusted net income or loss and
adjusted EBITDA, which are not measures prepared in accordance with
IFRS ("Non-IFRS" measures). The Non-IFRS measures are presented in
this press release as we believe that they provide investors and
other users of our financial statements, such as our lenders, with
a means of evaluating and understanding how the Company's
management evaluates the Company's operating performance. These
Non-IFRS measures should not be considered in isolation from, as
substitutes for, or superior to financial measures prepared in
accordance with IFRS.
The Company believes that the presentation of
TCE revenue, adjusted net income or loss with adjusted earnings or
loss per share, basic and diluted, and adjusted EBITDA are useful
to investors or other users of our financial statements, such as
our lenders, because they facilitate the comparability and the
evaluation of companies in the Company’s industry. In addition, the
Company believes that TCE revenue, adjusted net income or loss with
adjusted earnings or loss per share, basic and diluted, and
adjusted EBITDA are useful in evaluating its operating performance
compared to that of other companies in the Company’s industry. The
Company’s definitions of TCE revenue, adjusted net income or loss
with adjusted earnings or loss per share, basic and diluted, and
adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as reported by other companies
in the shipping industry or other industries.
TCE revenue is reconciled above in the section
entitled "Explanation of Variances on the Fourth Quarter of 2019
Financial Results Compared to the Fourth Quarter of 2018".

Forward-Looking Statements
Matters discussed in this press release may
constitute forward‐looking statements. The Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbor protections for
forward‐looking statements in order to encourage companies to
provide prospective information about their business.
Forward‐looking statements include statements concerning plans,
objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance, and
underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other than
statements of historical facts. The Company desires to take
advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is including this cautionary
statement in connection with this safe harbor legislation. The
words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend,"
"plan," "target," "project," "likely," "may," "will," "would,"
"could" and similar expressions identify forward‐looking
statements.
The forward‐looking statements in this press
release are based upon various assumptions, many of which are
based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without
limitation, management’s examination of historical operating
trends, data contained in the Company’s records and other data
available from third parties. Although management believes that
these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these
assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and
contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and are
beyond the Company’s control, there can be no assurance that the
Company will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or
projections. The Company undertakes no obligation, and specifically
declines any obligation, except as required by law, to publicly
update or revise any forward‐looking statements, whether as a
result of new information, future events or otherwise.
In addition to these important factors, other
important factors that, in the Company’s view, could cause actual
results to differ materially from those discussed in the
forward‐looking statements include unforeseen liabilities, future
capital expenditures, revenues, expenses, earnings, synergies,
economic performance, indebtedness, financial condition, losses,
future prospects, business and management strategies for the
management, expansion and growth of the Company’s operations, risks
relating to the integration of assets or operations of entities
that it has or may in the future acquire and the possibility that
the anticipated synergies and other benefits of such acquisitions
may not be realized within expected timeframes or at all, the
failure of counterparties to fully perform their contracts with the
Company, the strength of world economies and currencies, general
market conditions, including fluctuations in charter rates and
vessel values, changes in demand for tanker vessel capacity,
changes in the Company’s operating expenses, including bunker
prices, drydocking and insurance costs, the market for the
Company’s vessels, availability of financing and refinancing,
charter counterparty performance, ability to obtain financing and
comply with covenants in such financing arrangements, changes in
governmental rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory
authorities, potential liability from pending or future litigation,
general domestic and international political conditions, potential
disruption of shipping routes due to accidents or political events,
vessels breakdowns and instances of off‐hires, and other factors.
Please see the Company's filings with the SEC for a more complete
discussion of certain of these and other risks and
uncertainties.
