Teekay Tankers Ltd. (Teekay Tankers or the Company) today reported its second quarter results for 2011. During the quarter, the Company generated $14.9 million in Cash Available for Distribution(2). Yesterday, Teekay Tankers declared a dividend of $0.21 per share(3) for the second quarter of 2011, which will be paid on August 26, 2011 to all shareholders of record on August 19, 2011.
Teekay Tankers’ policy is to pay a variable quarterly dividend equal to its Cash Available for Distribution, subject to any reserves its board of directors may from time to time determine are required. Since the Company’s initial public offering in December 2007, it has declared a dividend in 15 consecutive quarters, which now totals $6.605 per share on a cumulative basis (including the $0.21 per share dividend to be paid on August 26, 2011).
Summary of Accretive Charter Transactions
During the second and third quarter of 2011, Teekay Tankers completed the following transactions which, when combined, are accretive to Teekay Tankers’ dividend:
Time-charter Out of Existing Owned Aframaxes
-- As previously announced, the Everest Spirit was time-chartered out for a period of 12 months at a fixed time-charter rate of $17,200 per day, which commenced on June 29, 2011. -- The Kanata Spirit was time-chartered out for a period of 12 months at a fixed time-charter rate of $17,250 per day, which commenced on July 15, 2011.
Time-charter In of Aframaxes from Third Parties
-- The Stavanger Bell was chartered-in for a period of 6 months (with options to extend up to an additional 18 months(4)) at a charter-in rate of $14,000 per day, which commenced on July 25, 2011. -- The Sanko Brave will be chartered-in for a period of four months (with options to extend up to an additional 16 months(5)) at a charter-in rate of $14,000 per day, which is expected to commence on August 14, 2011. (1) Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please refer to Appendix A included in this release for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the most directly comparable financial measure under United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and information about specific items affecting net income that are typically excluded by securities analysts in their published estimates of the Company's financial results. (2) Cash Available for Distribution represents net income (loss) excluding depreciation and amortization, unrealized (gains) losses from derivatives, any non-cash items or write-offs of other non-recurring items, and net income attributable to the historical results of vessels acquired by the Company from Teekay Corporation (Teekay), referred to herein as the Dropdown Predecessor, for the period when these vessels were owned and operated by Teekay. (3) Please refer to Appendix B to this release for the calculation of the cash dividend amount. (4) Comprised of 3 x 6 months options at escalating rates. (5) Comprised of 1 x 4 month option and 2 x 6 months options at escalating rates.
On a combined basis, Teekay Tankers estimates that the above transactions lock-in a profit to Teekay Tankers during the firm in-charter periods of approximately $6,000 per day and provide further potential upside through the extension options.
"In the current weak tanker market, the ability to tactically manage our fleet is an important differentiator for Teekay Tankers," commented Bruce Chan, Teekay Tankers’ Chief Executive Officer. "We believe that the recent time-charter in of two Aframaxes and concurrent time-charter out of two owned Aframaxes at rates approximately $3,000 per day higher than the charter-in rates is a good example of our ability to leverage the chartering relationships of our sponsor, Teekay Corporation. This new combination of in- and out-charters essentially provides a fixed profit for the initial firm period of the charter-ins and the extension options on these contracts provide us with further upside potential. If the market remains weak at the end of the six- and four-month firm periods, we can release the time-chartered in vessels back to their owners and reduce our spot market exposure. If the market strengthens, we can exercise our extension options and retain exposure to future upside."
Mr. Chan added, "Teekay Tankers continues to benefit from its fixed-rate contract coverage of approximately 60 percent through the second half of 2011 and 55 percent through the next 12 months. In addition, we continue to evaluate opportunities to increase our owned fleet with funds raised in our February equity offering."
Estimated Third Quarter 2011 Dividend
The table below presents the estimated cash dividend per share for the quarter ending September 30, 2011 at various average rates earned by the Company’s spot tanker fleet and reflects the estimated contribution from its existing fixed-rate time-charter contracts and the effect of scheduled vessel drydockings. These estimates are based on current assumptions and actual dividends may differ materially from those included in the following table. In addition, the Company’s Aframax and Suezmax spot rates earned during the third quarter of 2011 may not necessarily equal industry averages:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Q3 2011 Dividend Estimate Suezmax Spot Rate Assumption (TCE per day) -------------------------------------------------------- Dividend Per Share(i) $10,000 $15,000 $20,000 $25,000 $30,000 $35,000 $40,000 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- $10,000 0.14 0.16 0.18 0.21 0.23 0.27 0.30 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Aframax $15,000 0.16 0.18 0.21 0.23 0.26 0.29 0.32 Spot ---------------------------------------------------------------- Rate $20,000 0.19 0.21 0.23 0.25 0.28 0.32 0.35 Assumption ---------------------------------------------------------------- (TCE per $25,000 0.21 0.23 0.25 0.28 0.30 0.34 0.37 day) ---------------------------------------------------------------- $30,000 0.23 0.25 0.28 0.30 0.33 0.36 0.40 ---------------------------------------------------------------- $35,000 0.26 0.28 0.30 0.33 0.35 0.39 0.42 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- (i) Estimated dividend per share is based on estimated Cash Available for Distribution, less $0.45 million for scheduled principal payments related to one of the Company's debt facilities and less a $2.0 million reserve for estimated drydocking costs and other vessel capital expenditures. Based on the estimated weighted average number of shares outstanding for the third quarter of 61.9 million shares.
Tanker Market
Crude tanker freight rates weakened during the second quarter and into the third quarter of 2011 due to a combination of tanker supply growth, geopolitical factors, and seasonal factors. The tanker market continues to be affected by an oversupply of vessels relative to demand, which is dragging down tanker rates. In addition, the loss of Libyan crude oil production due to political unrest had a negative impact on Aframax rates in the Mediterranean, while North Sea production was impacted by a series of unplanned oilfield shutdowns. Tanker rates were further affected by seasonal refinery maintenance programs and the onset of summer oilfield maintenance in the North Sea.
The world tanker fleet grew by a net 13.8 million deadweight tonnes (mdwt), or 3.1 percent, in the first half of 2011 compared to a net increase of 10.6 mdwt, or 2.5 percent, in the same period last year. A combination of weak spot tanker freight rates and relatively high demolition prices have led to 7.3 mdwt of tanker removals through the first half of 2011, which has helped dampen tanker fleet growth. With increasing customer discrimination toward older double hull tankers on the rise, we expect this level of scrapping to persist through the second half of the year. In addition, new tanker ordering has remained virtually non-existent, with only 3.5 mdwt ordered since the start of the year. If this level of ordering continues for the rest of the year, it will be the lowest annual level of new tanker orders since 1985.
The International Energy Agency (IEA) is forecasting global oil demand of 89.5 million barrels per day (mb/d) in 2011, an increase of 1.2 mb/d from 2010 levels. The IEA also recently released its outlook for 2012 in which it calls for global oil demand growth of 1.5 mb/d, which is primarily driven by expected continued demand growth in China.
Financial Summary
The Company reported adjusted net income(1) (as detailed in Appendix A to this release) of $4.3 million, or $0.07 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, compared to adjusted net income of $7.6 million, or $0.18 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. The reduction in adjusted net income is primarily the result of lower average realized tanker rates for our spot fleet during the second quarter of 2011, compared to the same period in the prior year, which was partially offset by increased revenues of $2.9 million from the Company’s investment in two term loans. Adjusted net income excludes a number of specific items which had the net effect of decreasing net income by $2.9 million, or $0.05 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, compared to the net effect of decreasing net income by $5.3 million, or $0.13 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, as detailed in Appendix A. Including these items, the Company reported net income attributable to shareholders of $1.4 million, or $0.02 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, compared to net income attributable to shareholders of $2.2 million, or $0.05 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. Net revenues(2) were $30.9 million for the second quarter of 2011, compared to $35.8 million for the same period last year.
Adjusted net income(1) for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $9.9 million, or $0.17 per share, compared to adjusted net income of $14.0 million, or $0.38 per share, for the same period last year. The reduction in the adjusted net income is primarily the result of lower average realized spot tanker rates in the first half of 2011, compared to the same period in the prior year, which was partially offset by increased revenues of $5.6 million from the Company’s investment in two term loans, and a decrease in operating expenses related to repairs and maintenance. Adjusted net income excludes a number of specific items which had the net effect of decreasing net income by $1.4 million, or $0.03 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to the net effect of decreasing net income by $6.7 million, or $0.18 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2010, as detailed in Appendix A. Including these items, the Company reported net income attributable to shareholders of $8.5 million, or $0.14 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to net income attributable to shareholders of $7.3 million, or $0.20 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Net revenues(2) were $62.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $74.1 million for the same period last year.
For accounting purposes, the Company is required to recognize the changes in the fair value of its derivative instruments on the statements of income. This method of accounting does not affect the Company’s cash flows or the calculation of Cash Available for Distribution, but results in the recognition of unrealized gains or losses on the statements of income.
The Company’s financial statements for the prior periods include historical results of vessels acquired by the Company from Teekay, referred to herein as the Dropdown Predecessor, for the periods when these vessels were owned and operated by Teekay.
(1) Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please refer to Appendix A included in this release for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure to the most directly comparable financial measure under United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and information about specific items affecting net income that are typically excluded by securities analysts in their published estimates of the Company’s financial results.
(2) Net revenues represents revenues less voyage expenses. Net revenues is a non-GAAP financial measure used by certain investors to measure the financial performance of shipping companies. Please see the Company’s website at www.teekaytankers.com for a reconciliation of net revenues to the most directly comparable financial measure under GAAP.
