Including these items, the Company reported, on a GAAP basis, net income attributable to its stockholders of $2.4 million, or $0.03 per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, compared to net loss attributable to its stockholders of $49.1 million, or $0.69 per share, for the same period of the prior year. Net revenues(2) for the third quarter of 2014 increased to $456.0 million, compared to $426.8 million for the same period of the prior year.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company reported adjusted net loss attributable to its stockholders(1) of $29.2 million, or $0.40 per share, compared to adjusted net loss attributable to its stockholders of $81.0 million, or $1.15 per share, for the same period of the prior year.

Net revenues(2) for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 increased to $1,346.3 million, compared to $1,256.0 million for the same period of the prior year.
On October 3, 2014, the Company declared a cash dividend on its common stock of $0.31625 per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2014. The cash dividend was paid on October 31, 2014 to all shareholders of record on October 17, 2014.
“While the third quarter 2014 results improved from the previous quarter, our results were lower than anticipated due to lower than expected production on the Foinaven FPSO relating to subsea issues, and the delayed start-up of the Banff FPSO and the Hi-Load DP unit charter contract,” commented Peter Evensen, Teekay–s President and Chief Executive Officer.
“We recently announced our new dividend policy which represents the next step in Teekay–s transformation into a pure-play owner of two general partnerships,” Mr. Evensen continued. “Based on the increase in cash flows we expect to receive from our general partner and limited partner ownership interests in Teekay Offshore following the proposed dropdown of the Knarr FPSO, we intend to raise Teekay–s annualized cash dividend to between $2.20 and $2.30 per share, representing an increase of approximately 75 to 80 percent. In addition, with a project backlog of approximately $5 billion of known growth capital expenditures at Teekay Offshore and Teekay LNG, we expect that Teekay–s dividend will continue to grow by approximately 20 percent per annum for at least the three years following the initial dividend increase.”
Mr. Evensen added, “The proposed dropdown of the Knarr FPSO is an important milestone in Teekay–s transformation because it will provide for significant deleveraging of Teekay Parent–s balance sheet. The Knarr FPSO, which has now been offered to Teekay Offshore and is currently being reviewed by Teekay Offshore–s Conflicts Committee, is anticipated to achieve first oil in December of this year.”
Operating Results
The following tables highlight certain financial information for each of Teekay–s four publicly-listed entities: Teekay Offshore Partners L.P. (Teekay Offshore) (NYSE: TOO), Teekay LNG Partners L.P. (Teekay LNG) (NYSE: TGP), Teekay Tankers Ltd. (Teekay Tankers) (NYSE: TNK) and Teekay Parent (which excludes the results attributed to Teekay Offshore, Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers). A brief description of each entity and an analysis of its respective financial results follow the tables below. Please also refer to the “Fleet List” section below and Appendix B to this release for further details.
Teekay Offshore Partners L.P.
Teekay Offshore is an international provider of marine transportation, oil production, storage services and floating accommodation to the offshore oil industry through its fleet of 33 shuttle tankers (including two charter-in vessels and one vessel currently in lay-up as a candidate for conversion to an offshore unit), six floating production, storage and offloading (FPSO) units (including one committed FPSO conversion unit), six floating storage and offtake (FSO) units (excluding one existing shuttle tanker scheduled to commence conversion to an FSO unit following expiry of its current charter contract in 2015), 10 long-haul towing and anchor handling vessels (including six vessels Teekay Offshore has agreed to acquire between the fourth quarter of 2014 and first quarter of 2015 and four newbuildings scheduled to deliver during 2016), three floating accommodation unit newbuildings, one Hi-Load Dynamic Positioning (DP) unit and four conventional oil tankers. Teekay Offshore–s interests in these vessels range from 50 to 100 percent. Teekay Offshore also has the right to participate in certain other FPSO and vessel opportunities pursuant to the omnibus agreement with Teekay. Teekay Parent currently owns a 29.2 percent interest in Teekay Offshore (including the 2 percent sole general partner interest).
For the third quarter of 2014, Teekay Offshore–s quarterly distribution was $0.5384 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 $17.7 million for the third quarter of 2014, as detailed in Appendix D to this release.
Cash flow from vessel operations from Teekay Offshore increased to $120.1 million in the third quarter of 2014, from $92.3 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the contributions from the Voyageur Spirit FPSO unit following the commencement of its time-charter in August 2013, the three BG shuttle tanker newbuildings following commencement of their respective time-charters in August and November 2013 and January 2014 and the Suksan Salamander FSO following commencement of its time-charter in August 2014. These increases were partially offset by the lay-up and sale of older shuttle and conventional tankers during 2013 and 2014 as their related charter contracts expired or terminated and the scheduled drydocking of the Navion Saga FSO during the third quarter of 2014.
The results for the third quarter of 2014 were negatively impacted by the delayed start-up of the Hi-Load DP unit charter contract. The Hi-Load DP unit continues to undergo operational testing, and related delays in commencement of operations may affect previously anticipated cash flow from the unit. Upon successful completion of the testing, the unit is expected to commence its time-charter contract with Petrobras in Brazil.
In October 2014, Teekay Offshore, through its 50/50 joint venture with Odebrecht Oil & Gas S.A., signed a letter of intent with Petroleo Brasileiro SA (Petrobras) to provide an FPSO unit for the Libra field located in the Santos Basin offshore Brazil. The contract, which is expected to be finalized in the fourth quarter of 2014, will be serviced by a new FPSO unit converted from Teekay Offshore–s 1995-built shuttle tanker, the Navion Norvegia. The conversion project will be completed at Sembcorp Marine–s Jurong Shipyard in Singapore and is scheduled to commence operations in early-2017 under a 12-year firm period fixed-rate contract with Petrobras. The FPSO conversion is expected to be completed for a total fully built-up cost of approximately $1 billion.
In late-October 2014, Teekay Offshore, through its wholly-owned subsidiary ALP Maritime Services B.V. (ALP), agreed to acquire six modern on-the-water long-distance towing and anchor handling vessels for approximately $220 million. The vessels to be acquired were built between 2006 and 2010 and are all equipped with dynamic positioning (DP) capabilities. Teekay Offshore expects to take delivery of the six vessels during the fourth quarter of 2014 and the first quarter of 2015. Including these vessels, along with ALP–s four state-of-the-art long-distance towing and anchor handling newbuildings scheduled to deliver in 2016, ALP will become the world–s largest owner and operator of DP towing and anchor handling vessels. All ten vessels will be capable of long-distance towing and offshore unit installation and decommissioning of large floating exploration, production and storage units, including FPSO units, floating liquefied natural gas (FLNG) units and floating drill rigs. The acquisition remains subject to customary closing conditions, including the completion of vessel inspections and documentation.
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 44 LNG carriers (including one LNG regasification unit and 15 newbuildings under construction), 26 LPG/Multigas carriers (including nine newbuildings under construction) and eight conventional tankers. Teekay LNG–s interests in these vessels range from 20 to 100 percent. In addition, Teekay LNG, through its 50/50 LPG joint venture with Exmar NV (Exmar LPG BVBA), charters-in four LPG carriers. Teekay Parent currently owns a 34.0 percent interest in Teekay LNG (including the 2 percent sole general partner interest).
For the third quarter of 2014, Teekay LNG–s quarterly distribution was $0.6918 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 $25.3 million for the third quarter of 2014, as detailed in Appendix D to this release.
Teekay LNG–s total cash flow from vessel operations, including cash flows from equity-accounted vessels, was $123.3 million in the third quarter of 2014, compared to $125.2 million in the same period of the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of three 2000 and 2001-built conventional tankers and four older LPG carriers in Exmar LPG BVBA in 2013 and 2014 and the scheduled dry docking of one LNG carrier and two LPG carriers in Exmar LPG BVBA during the third quarter of 2014, partially offset by the acquisitions of, and contributions from, the two Awilco LNG carriers in late-2013 and higher revenues from Exmar LPG BVBA as a result of three newbuilding deliveries in 2014.
In late-October 2014, Teekay LNG agreed to acquire a 2003-built 10,200 cubic meter (cbm) LPG carrier, the Norgas Napa, from I.M. Skaugen SE (Skaugen) for approximately $27 million. Teekay LNG expects to take delivery of the vessel in mid-November 2014. Upon delivery, Skaugen will bareboat-charter the vessel back for a period of five-years at a fixed rate plus a profit share component based on actual earnings of the vessel, which is trading in Skaugen–s Norgas pool.
Teekay Tankers Ltd.
Teekay Tankers currently owns a fleet of 28 vessels, including 11 Aframax tankers, 10 Suezmax tankers, three Long Range 2 (LR2) product tankers, three Medium-Range (MR) product tankers and a 50 percent interest in a Very Large Crude Carrier (VLCC). In addition, Teekay Tankers has contracted to charter-in six Aframax and four LR2 product tankers. Of the 38 vessels, 12 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. In addition, Teekay Tankers owns a minority interest in Tanker Investments Ltd. (TIL) (OSLO: TIL), which currently owns a fleet of 14 modern tankers. Based on its current ownership of Teekay Tankers Class A common stock and its ownership of 100 percent of the outstanding Class B stock, Teekay Parent currently owns a 28.7 percent economic interest in and has voting control of Teekay Tankers.
For the third quarter of 2014, Teekay Tankers declared a dividend of $0.03 per share. Based on its ownership of Teekay Tankers Class A and Class B shares, the dividend paid to Teekay Parent totaled $0.8 million for the third quarter of 2014.
Cash flow from vessel operations from Teekay Tankers increased to $21.2 million in the third quarter of 2014, from $14.0 million in the same period of the prior year. The increase is primarily due to stronger average spot tanker rates in the third quarter of 2014 compared to the same period in the prior year, an increase in fleet size due to the addition of six in-chartered vessels during 2014 and higher equity income as a result of commercial and technical management fees earned through Teekay Tankers– 50 percent interest in the conventional tanker commercial management and technical management operations acquired from Teekay on August 1, 2014 (Teekay Operations).
In October 2014, Teekay Tankers secured time charter-in contracts for two additional Aframax vessels, which increased Teekay Tankers– total time charter-in fleet to ten vessels. The new time charter-in contracts have an average daily rate of $18,000 and firm contract periods of six months to 33 months, with extension options.
Teekay Parent
In addition to its equity ownership interests in Teekay Offshore, Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers, Teekay Parent directly owns five FPSO units and one VLCC vessel. As at November 1, 2014, Teekay Parent also had seven charter-in conventional tankers (including four Aframax tankers owned by Teekay Offshore), two charter-in LNG carriers owned by Teekay LNG, and three charter-in FSOs and two shuttle tankers owned by Teekay Offshore.
For the third quarter of 2014, Teekay Parent generated negative cash flow from vessel operations of $13.1 million, compared to negative cash flow from vessel operations of $36.3 million in the same period of the prior year. The reduction in negative cash flow is primarily due to the Banff FPSO recommencing operations under its time-charter contract in July 2014 following a storm event in late-2011, the re-delivery of several in-chartered tankers over the past year and higher spot tanker rates.
In July 2014, repairs to the gas compressors on the Foinaven FPSO were completed and the unit was available to produce at its maximum capacity. However, due to issues with the subsea flow lines, which are the responsibility of the charterer, the field was unable to produce at maximum capacity. As a result, the Foinaven FPSO is expected to generate lower revenues until these issues are resolved by the charterer.
In late-September, Teekay Parent announced a new dividend policy under which the Company–s future dividend payments will be primarily linked to cash flows received from the Company–s general partnership (GP) and limited partnership (LP) interests in its two master limited partnerships, Teekay LNG and Teekay Offshore, together with other dividends received, after deductions for parent company level corporate general and administrative expenses and any reserves determined to be required by the Company–s Board of Directors. The new dividend policy is expected to take effect for the quarter immediately following the completion of the sale of the Petrojarl Knarr FPSO unit to Teekay Offshore.
In late-June 2014, Teekay Parent took delivery of the Petrojarl Knarr FPSO newbuilding in South Korea and the unit arrived in Norway in mid-September 2014. Following installation and offshore testing on the Knarr field, the unit is anticipated to commence its ten-year charter contract with BG Group in December 2014. In September 2014, Teekay Parent formally offered to sell the Petrojarl Knarr FPSO to Teekay Offshore for its fully built-up cost of approximately $1.16 billion. The offer is currently being reviewed by the Conflicts Committee of Teekay Offshore–s Board of Directors. Once approved by the Conflicts Committee and Teekay Offshore–s Board of Directors, the sale will remain subject to the Petrojarl Knarr FPSO achieving first oil.
