Teekay Corporation yesterday reported an adjusted net loss attributable to stockholders of Teekay of $33.3 million, or $0.47 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to an adjusted net loss attributable to stockholders of Teekay of $17.0 million, or $0.25 per share, for the same period of the prior year. Adjusted net loss attributable to stockholders of Teekay excludes a number of specific items that had the net effect of increasing GAAP net income by $44.7 million, or $0.63 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and increasing GAAP net loss by $30.2 million, or $0.43 per share, for the same period of the prior year, as detailed in Appendix A to this release. Including these items, the Company reported on a GAAP basis, net income attributable to stockholders of Teekay of $11.4 million, or $0.16 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2013, compared to net loss attributable to stockholders of Teekay of $47.3 million, or $0.68 per share, for the same period of the prior year. Net revenues(2) for the second quarter of 2013 were $404.6 million, compared to $447.6 million for the same period of the prior year.
For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company reported an adjusted net loss attributable to stockholders of Teekay(1) of $45.0 million, or $0.63 per share, compared to an adjusted net loss attributable to stockholders of Teekay of $37.8 million, or $0.55 per share, for the same period of the prior year. Adjusted net loss attributable to stockholders of Teekay excludes a number of specific items that had the net effect of increasing GAAP net income by $50.2 million, or $0.71 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and increasing GAAP net loss by $8.4 million, or $0.12 per share, for the same period of the prior year, as detailed in Appendix A to this release. Including these items, the Company reported on a GAAP basis, net income attributable to stockholders of Teekay of $5.2 million, or $0.07 per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2013, compared to net loss attributable to stockholders of Teekay of $46.2 million, or $0.67 per share, for the same period of the prior year. Net revenues for the six months ended of 2013 were $829.3 million, compared to $910.1 million for the same period of the prior year.
On July 5, 2013, the Company declared a cash dividend on its common stock of $0.31625 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. The cash dividend was paid on July 31, 2013 to all shareholders of record on July 16, 2013.
"The second quarter of 2013 was a challenging operational quarter for our FPSO segment due to near-term production issues which negatively impacted revenue contribution from the Voyageur Spirit and Foinaven FPSO units," commented Peter Evensen, Teekay Corporation's President and Chief Executive Officer. "On both units, production was reduced by issues related to the gas compressors. Resolving these issues has been a top priority and our FPSO operations teams have been working diligently to get these units back into full production as soon as possible. As part of the Voyageur Spirit sale and purchase agreement, Teekay Parent has agreed to indemnify Teekay Offshore due to the delayed acceptance by the charterer. Although the Voyageur Spirit off-hire has resulted in a reduction of approximately $0.05 per share to Teekay Corporation's second quarter adjusted earnings, the indemnification itself will be effectively treated as a reduction to the $540 million sales price to Teekay Offshore and will not impact Teekay Corporation's earnings or operating cash flows. The $540 million sales price paid by Teekay Offshore was approximately $75 million higher than Teekay Parent's cost to acquire and upgrade this unit. Since April 13, 2013, the Voyageur Spirit FPSO has been operating at partial production levels and is expected to reach full capacity levels by the end of August 2013, following the completion of repairs and testing."
"We continue to make progress on our strategy of selling assets into our publicly-traded daughter entities and supporting their growth through direct acquisitions and newbuilding deliveries at the daughter company level," Mr. Evensen continued. "During the second quarter, we completed the sale of the Voyageur Spirit FPSO and a 50 percent interest in the Cidade de Itajai FPSO to Teekay Offshore, contributing to a reduction in Teekay Parent's net debt by $334 million. In addition, Teekay Offshore took delivery of its first two shuttle tanker newbuildings which will operate under ten-year charters for BG Teekay in Brazil, and Teekay Tankers took delivery of a 50 percent-owned VLCC conventional tanker in June which commenced a five-year time-charter to a major Chinese charterer. In recent months Teekay LNG and Teekay Offshore have been awarded new contracts in the LNG and FSO segments, respectively, and Teekay LNG acquired additional LNG and LPG newbuildings, which will provide further near- and long-term growth."
Mr. Evensen added, "Looking ahead, we continue to develop new opportunities and build on the strong existing portfolio of visible growth projects in each of our businesses. So far in 2013, we have seen a strong level of new project tendering activity, specifically in our gas and offshore businesses. As Teekay Offshore and Teekay LNG grow, the cash flows from our general partnership interests in these entities will become an increasingly important component of Teekay Parent's overall cash flows."
Teekay Offshore Partners L.P.
Teekay Offshore is an international provider of marine transportation, oil production and storage services to the offshore oil industry through its fleet of 36 shuttle tankers (including four chartered-in vessels and two newbuildings under construction), five floating, production, storage and offloading (FPSO) units, six floating storage and offtake (FSO) units (including one FSO unit under conversion) and five conventional oil tankers, in which its interests range from 50 to 100 percent. Teekay Offshore also has the right to participate in certain other FPSO and vessel opportunities. Teekay Parent currently owns a 29.9 percent interest in Teekay Offshore (including the 2 percent sole general partner interest).
For the second quarter of 2013, Teekay Offshore's quarterly distribution was $0.5253 per common unit. The cash distribution to be received by Teekay Parent based on its common unit ownership and general partnership interest in Teekay Offshore totaled $16.2 million for the second quarter of 2013.
Cash flow from vessel operations from Teekay Offshore decreased to $91.5 million in the second quarter of 2013, from $109.8 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the lay-up of the Navion Torinita and the Navion Clipper shuttle tankers upon expiration of their time-charter contracts in the second and fourth quarters of 2012, respectively, the sales of the Navion Fennia and Navion Savonita shuttle tankers in the third and fourth quarters of 2012, the sale of five conventional tankers during the past 12 months, higher maintenance costs and higher crew wages from the FPSO units and higher maintenance costs for the Dampier Spirit. This decrease was partially offset by the acquisition of the 50 percent interest in the Cidade de Itajai FPSO in June 2013 and higher shuttle tanker revenues from increased rates on both time-charter and contract of affreightment contracts as well as new contracts.
On May 2, 2013, Teekay Offshore completed the acquisition of the Voyageur Spirit FPSO unit from Teekay Parent for a purchase price of $540 million. The Voyageur Spirit FPSO unit has been contracted by E.ON Ruhrgas UK E&P Limited (E.ON) to operate on the Huntington Field in the North Sea under a five-year time-charter, plus up to 10 one-year extension options. Commencing from first-oil, which was achieved on April 13, 2013, the charter contract with E.ON required the Voyageur Spirit FPSO unit to achieve full production capability within a specified time period to receive final acceptance from E.ON. Due to a defective gas compressor on board the FPSO unit, the Voyageur Spirit was unable to achieve final acceptance within the allowable timeframe, which resulted in the FPSO unit being declared off-hire by the charterer retroactive to April 13, 2013. Under the Voyageur Spirit FPSO sale and purchase agreement between Teekay Parent and Teekay Offshore, Teekay Parent warranted that the FPSO unit would achieve final acceptance by the charterer and agreed to indemnify Teekay Offshore for revenue it would have received under the charter with E.ON from the date of acquisition until final acceptance is achieved, up to a maximum amount of $54 million. Any amounts relating to the indemnification of Teekay Offshore by Teekay Parent will be effectively treated as a reduction to the sale price of the FPSO unit and will therefore have no impact on the operating cash flows of Teekay Parent. For the period from May 2, 2013 to June 30, 2013, the indemnification effectively resulted in a reduction to the Voyageur Spirit FPSO purchase price of approximately $12.5 million. Repairs to the Voyageur Spirit compressor are expected to be completed in mid-August 2013 and the unit is expected to ramp-up to full production and achieve final acceptance later in the month. In addition, the Company intends to enter into commercial negotiations with the charterer to seek compensation for production during the period from April 13, 2013 through to final acceptance. Any compensation received from the charterer during the indemnification period will reduce the amount of Teekay Parent's indemnification to Teekay Offshore.
In May 2013, Teekay Offshore entered into an agreement with Statoil Petroleum AS (Statoil), on behalf of the field license partners, to provide an FSO unit for the Gina Krog oil and gas field in the North Sea. The contract will be serviced by a new FSO unit converted from the 1995-built shuttle tanker, Randgrid. The FSO conversion project is expected to be completed for a net capital cost of approximately $220 million. Following completion in early 2017, the FSO unit will commence operations under a three-year firm period time-charter contract to Statoil, which includes 12 additional one-year extension options.
In May 2013, Teekay Offshore entered into an agreement with Salamander Energy plc (Salamander) to provide an FSO unit for a ten-year charter contract, plus extension options, in offshore Thailand. Teekay Offshore intends to convert its 1993-built shuttle tanker, the Navion Clipper, into an FSO unit for an estimated fully-built-up cost of approximately $50 million. The unit is expected to commence its contract with Salamander in the third quarter of 2014.
In June 2013, Teekay Offshore completed the acquisition of a 50 percent interest in the Cidade de Itajai (Itajai) FPSO unit from Teekay Parent for a purchase price of $204 million. The Itajai FPSO has been operating on the Baúna and Piracaba (previously named Tiro and Sidon) fields in the Santos Basin offshore Brazil since February 2013 under a nine-year fixed-rate time-charter contract, plus extension options, with Petroleo Brasileiro SA (Petrobras). The remaining 50 percent interest in the Itajai FPSO unit is owned by Brazilian-based Odebrecht Oil & Gas S.A. (a member of the Odebrecht group).
Teekay LNG Partners L.P.
Teekay LNG provides liquefied natural gas (LNG), liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and crude oil marine transportation services generally under long-term, fixed-rate charter contracts through its current fleet of 32 LNG carriers (including five newbuildings under construction), 26 LPG carriers (including 10 newbuildings under construction) and 11 conventional tankers. Teekay LNG's interests in these vessels range from 33 to 100 percent. In addition, Teekay LNG, through its 50 percent owned LPG joint venture with Exmar NV, charters-in five LPG carriers. Teekay Parent currently owns a 36.9 percent interest in Teekay LNG (including the 2 percent sole general partner interest).
For the second quarter of 2013, Teekay LNG's quarterly distribution was $0.675 per common unit. The cash distribution to be received by Teekay Parent based on its common unit ownership and general partnership interest in Teekay LNG totaled $23.0 million for the second quarter of 2013, as detailed in Appendix D to this release.
Including cash flows from equity-accounted vessels, Teekay LNG's total cash flow from vessel operations increased to $112.6 million in the second quarter of 2013, from $109.0 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the February 2013 acquisition of the 50 percent interest in Exmar LPG BVBA, Teekay LNG's LPG joint venture with Exmar NV, higher rates on charter contracts entered into during 2012 for certain of the LNG carriers in Teekay LNG's 52 percent owned joint venture with Marubeni Corporation, and the scheduled dry docking of the Hispania Spirit in the second quarter of the prior year. This increase was partially offset by the effect of amendments to two of Teekay LNG's Suezmax tanker charter contracts, which temporarily reduced the daily hire rate for each vessel from October 2012 until September 2014, the scheduled dry docking of the European Spirit in the second quarter of 2013, and higher vessel operating expenditures due to the scheduled dry dockings of the first Tangguh project LNG carrier and the Catalunya Spirit during the second quarter of 2013 and preparations for the dry docking of the second Tangguh project LNG carrier scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2013.
In June 2013, Teekay LNG was awarded five-year time-charter contracts with Cheniere Marketing LLC (Cheniere) for the two 173,400 cubic meter (cbm) LNG carrier newbuildings it ordered in December 2012. The newbuilding LNG carriers are currently under construction by Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co., Ltd., (DSME) of South Korea and are scheduled to deliver in the first half of 2016. These newbuilding vessels will be equipped with the M-type, Electronically Controlled, Gas Injection (MEGI) twin engines, which are expected to be significantly more fuel-efficient and have lower emission levels than other engines currently being utilized in LNG shipping.
In July 2013, Teekay LNG exercised a portion of its existing options with DSME and ordered two additional 173,400 cbm LNG carrier newbuildings, which will also be constructed with the MEGI twin engines. The Partnership intends to secure long-term contract employment for both vessels prior to their deliveries in 2016. With the exercise of these two newbuilding options, the Partnership secured additional options from DSME for up to five additional LNG carrier newbuildings. In addition, Exmar LPG BVBA exercised its options to order two additional Midsize Gas Carrier (MGC) newbuildings, which will be constructed by Hanjin Heavy Industries and Construction Co., Ltd. (Hanjin) and scheduled for delivery in 2017.
In August 2013, Teekay LNG agreed to acquire a 155,900 cbm LNG carrier newbuilding from Norway-based Awilco LNG ASA (Awilco), which is currently under construction by DSME in South Korea. The vessel is expected to deliver in the third quarter of 2013, at which time Awilco will sell the vessel to Teekay LNG and bareboat charter the vessel back on a five-year fixed-rate charter contract (plus a one-year extension option) with a fixed-price purchase obligation at the end of the initial term (and option period). The net vessel purchase price of $155 million is net of a $50 million upfront prepayment of charter hire by Awilco, which is in addition to the daily bareboat charter rate. As part of the transaction, Awilco has the option to sell and bareboat charter back a second 155,900 cbm LNG carrier newbuilding from Teekay LNG, currently under construction by DSME, under similar terms. The second LNG carrier newbuilding is expected to deliver in late-2013 or early-2014.
Teekay Tankers Ltd.
Teekay Tankers currently owns a fleet of 32 vessels, including 11 Aframax tankers, 10 Suezmax tankers, seven Long Range 2 (LR2) product tankers (including four newbuildings currently under construction), three MR product tankers, and a 50 percent interest in a VLCC. In addition, Teekay Tankers currently time-charters in one Aframax tanker and has invested $115 million in first-priority mortgage loans secured by two 2010-built VLCCs. Of the 28 vessels currently in operation, 13 are employed on fixed-rate time-charters, generally ranging from one to three years in initial duration, with the remaining vessels trading in spot tanker pools. Based on its current ownership of Class A common stock and its ownership of 100 percent of the outstanding Teekay Tankers Class B stock, Teekay Parent currently owns a 25.1 percent economic interest in and has voting control of Teekay Tankers.
On July 8, 2013, Teekay Tankers declared a fixed second quarter 2013 dividend of $0.03 per share, which was paid on July 31, 2013 to all shareholders of record on July 19, 2013. Based on its ownership of Teekay Tankers Class A and Class B shares, the dividend paid to Teekay Parent totaled $0.6 million for the second quarter of 2013.
In the second quarter of 2013, Teekay Tankers generated cash flow from vessel operations of $10.7 million, a decrease from $15.4 million in the same period of the prior year primarily due to lower time-charter equivalent rates earned by its spot fleet and the expiration of certain time-charter contracts, and the subsequent redeployment of certain vessels on time-charter contracts at lower rates throughout the course of 2012 and early-2013, partially offset by the contribution from 13 vessels acquired from Teekay Corporation in June 2012.
In early April 2013, Teekay Tankers ordered four fuel-efficient 113,000 dead-weight tonne LR2 product tankers from STX Offshore & Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. (STX) plus options to order additional vessels. The payment of the first shipyard installment by Teekay Tankers to STX is contingent on Teekay Tankers receiving acceptable refund guarantees for the shipyard installment payments. In late-May 2013, STX commenced a voluntary financial restructuring with its lenders during which STX's refund guarantee applications were temporarily suspended. On July 31, 2013, STX announced it had completed its financial restructuring process. STX has indicated that certain amendments to the terms of the contracts with Teekay Tankers may be required in order to secure the issuance of the refund guarantees. Teekay Tankers has not agreed to any such amendments. To date, Teekay Tankers has not made any installment payments to STX for the four newbuilding LR2 vessels and, prior to receiving the refund guarantees, Teekay Tankers has the right to cancel the newbuilding orders at its discretion.
In July 2010, Teekay Tankers invested $115 million two loans maturing in July 2013, secured by first priority mortgages registered on two 2010-built VLCC newbuildings. The borrowers have been in default on their interest payment obligations since January 2013. As a result, Teekay Tankers entered into discussions with the borrowers and the second priority mortgagees of the vessels to realize on its security for the loans and, in May 2013, took over management of the vessels.
Teekay Parent
In addition to its equity ownership interests in Teekay Offshore, Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers, Teekay Parent directly owns several vessels, including four conventional Suezmax tankers and four FPSO units. In addition, Teekay Parent currently owns one newbuilding FPSO unit under construction. As at August 1, 2013, Teekay Parent also had eight chartered-in conventional tankers (including two Aframax tankers owned by Teekay Offshore), two chartered-in LNG carriers owned by Teekay LNG, and two chartered-in shuttle tankers and two chartered-in FSOs owned by Teekay Offshore.
For the second quarter of 2013, Teekay Parent generated negative cash flow from vessel operations of $31.2 million, compared to negative cash flow from vessel operations of $25.9 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease in cash flow is due to the sale of the 13 conventional tankers to Teekay Tankers in June 2012, the completion of the Petrojarl I FPSO time-charter in April 2013 and lower production on the Foinaven FPSO, partially offset by lower time-charter hire expense as a result of the redelivery of time-chartered in vessels over the course of the past year, including lower termination fees relating to time-chartered in vessels.
From the fourth quarter of 2012 through the second quarter of 2013, the Foinaven FPSO achieved lower than budgeted production levels due to equipment-related operating issues. In mid-July 2013, Teekay Parent and the charterer agreed to stop production to repair the FPSO unit's gas compression trains (which are the responsibility of Teekay Parent) and repair the subsea system (which is the responsibility of the charterer). The first compressor train is expected to be repaired by mid-August 2013 allowing the unit to recommence operations. The second compressor train is expected to be repaired by November 2013, at which point the Foinaven FPSO is expected to reach full production. Under the charter contract, Teekay Parent will receive lower quarterly revenue and a reduced annual production tariff, typically recognized in the fourth quarter of each year, due to lower expected production in 2013. Teekay Parent experienced a reduction of revenues of approximately $4 million, or $0.06 per share, in the second quarter of 2013 relating to the lower oil production from the Foinaven FPSO.
