MANAGEMENT’S
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITIONS AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS
|
·
|
Time
charters, where vessels are chartered to customers for a fixed period
of time at rates that are generally fixed but may contain a variable
component, based on inflation, interest rates or current market rates;
and
|
·
|
Voyage
charters, which are charters for shorter intervals, usually a single
round trip, that are priced on a current, or “spot” market
rate.
|
·
|
charges
related to the depreciation of the historical cost of our fleet (less
an
estimated residual value) over the estimated useful lives of our
vessels;
|
·
|
charges
related to the amortization of drydocking expenditures over the estimated
number of years to the next scheduled drydocking or intermediate
survey;
and
|
·
|
charges
related to the amortization of the fair value of the time charters
acquired in the Teekay Spain acquisition (over the remaining terms
of the
charters), which was initially determined at approximately $183 million
in
April 2004 when Teekay Corporation acquired Teekay
Spain.
|
·
|
Unrealized
end-of-period revaluations. Under U.S. accounting guidelines, all
foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities, such
as cash
and cash equivalents, restricted cash, long-term debt and capital
lease
obligations, are revalued and reported based on the prevailing exchange
rate at the end of the period. A substantial majority of our foreign
currency gains and losses are attributable to this revaluation in
respect
of our Euro-denominated term loans. Substantially all of these gains
and
losses are unrealized.
|
·
|
Foreign
currency revenues and expenses. A portion of our voyage revenues are
denominated in Euros. A substantial majority of our vessel operating
expenses and general and administrative expenses are denominated
in Euros,
which is primarily a function of the nationality of our crew and
administrative staff. We also have Euro-denominated interest expense
and
interest income related to our Euro-denominated loans and Euro-denominated
restricted cash deposits, respectively. As a result, fluctuations
in the
Euro relative to the U.S. Dollar have caused, and are likely to continue
to cause, fluctuations in our income statement, including our reported
voyage revenues, vessel operating expenses, general and administrative
expenses, interest expense and interest
income.
|
·
|
Our
financial results reflect the consolidation of Teekay Tangguh and
Teekay
Nakilat (III). On November 1, 2006, we entered into an
agreement with Teekay Corporation to purchase its 100% interest in
Teekay
Tangguh Holdings Corporation (or Teekay Tangguh), which owns a
70% interest in Teekay BLT Corporation (or Teekay Tangguh Joint
Venture), and its 100% interest in Teekay Nakilat (III) Holdings
Corporation (or Teekay Nakilat (III)), which owns a 40% interest
in Teekay Nakilat (III) Corporation (or RasGas 3 Joint Venture).
Teekay Tangguh Joint Venture owns two LNG newbuildings and the related
20-year time charters. RasGas 3 Joint Venture owns four LNG
newbuildings and the related 25-year time charters. The purchases
will
occur upon the delivery of the first newbuildings for the respective
projects, which are scheduled for 2008 and early 2009; however we
were
required to consolidate Teekay Tangguh and Teekay Nakilat (III) in
our
consolidated financial statements, effective November 1, 2006, as
both
entities are variable interest entities and we are their primary
beneficiary. Please read Item 1 - Financial Statements: Notes
11(e) and 11(f) – Related Party Transactions and Note 13(a) - Commitments
and Contingencies.
|
·
|
The
size of our LNG carrier and LPG carrier fleets has changed.
Our historical results of operations reflect changes in the size
and
composition of our fleet due to certain vessel deliveries. In particular,
we increased the size of our LNG carrier fleet from four LNG carriers
during the first six months of 2006 to seven LNG carriers by February
2007. We also purchased our first LPG carrier from Teekay Corporation
in
January 2007. Please read “– Results of Operations – Liquefied Gas
Segment” below for further details about our vessel
deliveries.
|
·
|
One
of our Suezmax tankers earns revenues based partly on spot market
rates.
The time charter for one Suezmax tanker, the Teide
Spirit, contains a component providing for additional revenues to
us
beyond the fixed hire rate when spot market rates exceed certain
threshold
amounts. Accordingly, even though declining spot market rates will
not
result in our receiving less than the fixed hire rate, our results
may
continue to be influenced, in part, by the variable component of
the
Teide Spirit charter. During the three and six months ended June
30, 2007, we earned $1.0 million and $1.9 million, and for the same
periods in 2006, we earned $0.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively,
in
additional revenue from this variable
component.

|
increases
of $18.1 million and $30.3 million, respectively, during the three
and six
months ended June 30, 2007 from the delivery of the RasGas II LNG
Carriers
and the Dania Spirit;
|
·
|
an
increase of $2.2 million for the three and six months ended June
30, 2007
due to the Catalunya Spirit being off-hire for 33.1 days during
the second quarter of 2006 undergoing repairs on its cargo tanks
and
replacing its propeller after a scheduled drydocking;
and
|
·
|
increases
of $1.9 million and $3.6 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, due to the effect on our Euro-denominated
revenues from the strengthening of the Euro against the U.S. Dollar
during
such period compared to the same period last
year;
|
·
|
decreases
of $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, due to the Madrid Spirit being
off-hire, as discussed above.
|
·
|
increases
of $3.0 million and $6.9 million, respectively, during the three
and six
months ended June 30, 2007 from the delivery of the RasGas II LNG
Carriers
and the Dania Spirit;
|
·
|
an
increase of $0.8 million for the three and six months ended June
30, 2007,
relating to the cost of the repairs completed on the Madrid
Spirit during the second quarter of 2007 net of estimated insurance
recoveries; and
|
·
|
increases
of $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, due to the effect on our Euro-denominated
vessel operating expenses from the strengthening of the Euro against
the
U.S. Dollar during such period compared to the same periods last
year (a
majority of our vessel operating expenses are denominated in Euros,
which
is primarily a function of the nationality of our
crew);
|
·
|
a
decrease of $1.0 million from the cost of the repairs completed on
the
Catalunya Spirit during the second quarter of 2006 net of
estimated recoveries.
|
·
|
increases
of $3.5 million and $6.4 million, respectively, during the three
and six
months ended June 30, 2007 from the delivery of the RasGas II LNG
Carriers
and the Dania Spirit; and
|
·
|
increases
of $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively, relating to amortization
of drydock expenditures incurred during the second half of
2006.
|
·
|
increases
of $0.8 million and $0.3 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, relating to revenues earned by the Teide
Spirit (the time charter for the Teide Spirit contains a
component providing for additional revenues to us beyond the fixed
hire
rate when spot market rates exceed threshold
amounts);
|
·
|
increases
of $0.3 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, due to adjustments to the daily charter
rate
based on inflation and increases from rising interest rates in accordance
with the time charter contracts for five Suezmax tankers. (However,
under
the terms of our capital leases for our tankers subject to these
charter
rate fluctuations, we had a corresponding increase in our lease payments,
which is reflected as an increase to interest expense. Therefore,
these
and future interest rate adjustments do not and will not affect our
cash
flow or net income); and
|
·
|
an
increase of $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2007,
relating
to 15.8 days of off-hire for a scheduled drydocking for one of our
Suezmax
tankers during February 2006.
|
·
|
increases
of $0.7 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, relating to higher crew manning, insurance,
and repairs and maintenance; and
|
·
|
increases
of $0.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, due to the effect on our Euro-denominated
vessel operating expenses from the strengthening of the Euro against
the
U.S. Dollar during the three and six months ended June 30, 2007,
compared
to the same periods last year (a majority of our vessel operating
expenses
are denominated in Euros, which is primarily a function of the nationality
of our crew).
|
·
|
increases
of $9.0 million and $18.8 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, relating to the increase in capital lease
obligations in connection with the delivery of the RasGas II LNG
Carriers
and an increase in debt of Teekay Nakilat used to finance restricted
cash
deposits and repay advances from Teekay
Corporation;
|
·
|
increases
of $2.6 million and $4.3 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, relating to debt of Teekay Nakilat (III)
used
by the RasGas 3 Joint Venture to fund shipyard construction installment
payments (this increase in interest expense from debt is offset by
a
corresponding increase in interest income from advances to joint
venture);
|
·
|
increases
of $3.2 million and $3.3 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, from the ineffective portion of Teekay

30, 2007, relating to debt incurred to finance the acquisition of
Teekay
Nakilat and the Dania
Spirit;
|
·
|
increases
of $0.2 million and $0.3 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, due to the effect on our Euro-denominated
debt
from the strengthening of the Euro against the U.S. Dollar during
such
period compared to the same periods last year;
and
|
·
|
increases
of $0.1 million and $0.5 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, from rising interest rates on our five
Suezmax
tanker capital lease obligations (however, as described above, under
the
terms of the time charter contracts for these vessels, we received
corresponding increases in charter payments, which are reflected
as an
increase to voyage revenues);
|
·
|
decreases
of $1.8 million and $3.3 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, from the purchase in December 2006
of the Catalunya Spirit, which was on a capital lease prior to
such purchase, and from scheduled capital lease repayments on the
Madrid Spirit (these LNG vessels were financed pursuant to
Spanish tax lease arrangements, under which we borrowed under term
loans
and deposited the proceeds into restricted cash accounts and entered
into
capital lease for the vessels; as a result, this decrease in interest
expense from the capital lease is offset by a corresponding decrease
in
the interest income from restricted
cash).
|
·
|
increases
of $2.1 million and $5.5 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, relating to additional restricted cash
deposits for the RasGas II LNG Carriers, which were funded by
debt;
|
·
|
increases
of $2.5 million and $4.2 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, relating to interest-bearing
advances made by us to the RasGas 3 Joint Venture for shipyard
construction installment payments;
|
·
|
increases
of $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, due to an increase in average cash balances
compared to the same periods last year;
and
|
·
|
increases
of $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, due to the effect on our Euro-denominated
deposits from the strengthening of the Euro against the U.S. Dollar
during
such period compared to the same period last
year;
|
·
|
decreases
of $1.8 million and $3.5 million, respectively, for the three and
six
months ended June 30, 2007, resulting from the purchase in
December 2006 of the Catalunya Spirit, which was on a capital
lease prior to such purchase, and from scheduled capital lease repayments
on the Madrid Spirit which were funded with restricted cash
deposits.

$87.5
million (2008 and 2009), $79.7 million (2010 and 2011) and $238.1
million
(beyond 2011). Expected interest payments are based on the existing
interest rates (fixed-rate loans) and LIBOR at June 30, 2007, plus
margins
that ranged up to 1.05% (variable-rate loans). The expected interest
payments do not reflect the effect of related interest rate swaps
that we
have used to hedge certain of our floating-rate
debt.
|
(2)
|
Includes,
in addition to lease payments, amounts we are required to pay to
purchase
certain leased vessels at the end of the lease terms. We are obligated
to
purchase five of our existing Suezmax tankers upon the termination
of the
related capital leases, which will occur at various times from late
2008
to 2010. The purchase price will be based on the unamortized portion
of
the vessel construction financing costs for the vessels, which we
expect
to range from $38.2 million to $41.1 million per vessel. We expect
to
satisfy the purchase price by assuming the existing vessel financing.
We
are also obligated to purchase one of our existing LNG carriers upon
the
termination of the related capital leases on December 31, 2011. The
purchase obligation has been fully funded with restricted cash deposits.
Please read Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 5 – Capital Lease
Obligations and Restricted Cash.
|

|
Existing
restricted cash deposits of $564.7 million, together with the interest
earned on the deposits, will be sufficient to repay the remaining
amounts
we currently owe under the lease
arrangements.

|
On
November 1, 2006, we entered into an agreement with Teekay Corporation
to
purchase its 70% interest in Teekay Tangguh and its 40% interest
in Teekay
Nakilat (III). The purchases will occur upon the delivery of the
first
newbuildings, which are scheduled for 2008 and early 2009. Please

Rate
refers to the weighted-average effective interest rate for our long-term
debt and capital lease obligations, including the margin we pay on
our
floating-rate debt and the average fixed pay rate for our interest
rate
swap agreements. The average interest rate for our capital lease
obligations is the weighted-average interest rate implicit in our
lease
obligations at the inception of the leases. The average fixed pay
rate for
our interest rate swaps excludes the margin we pay on our floating-rate
debt, which as of June 30, 2007 ranged from 0.50% to 1.20%. Please
read
Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 8 – Long-term
debt.
|

|
Interest
payments on U.S. Dollar-denominated debt and interest rate swaps
are based
on LIBOR.
|
(3)
|
Interest
payments on Euro-denominated debt and interest rate swaps are based
on
EURIBOR.

|
Excludes
capital lease obligations (present value of minimum lease payments)
of
139.0 million Euros ($188.4 million) on one of our existing LNG
carriers
with a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 5.8%. Under the
terms of
this fixed-rate lease obligation, we are required to have on deposit,
subject to a weighted-average fixed interest rate of 5.0%, an amount
of
cash that, together with the interest earned thereon, will fully
fund the
amount owing under the capital lease obligation, including a vessel
purchase obligation. As at June 30, 2007, this amount was 142.5
million
Euros ($193.0 million). Consequently, we are not subject to interest
rate
risk from these obligations or
deposits.
|
(6)
|
Under
the terms of the capital leases for the RasGas II LNG Carriers (see
Item 1
– Financial Statements: Note 5 – Capital Leases and Restricted Cash), we
are required to have on deposit, subject to a variable rate of interest,
an amount of cash that, together with interest earned on the deposit,
will
equal the remaining amounts owing under the variable-rate leases.
The
deposits, which as at June 30, 2007 totaled $564.7 million, and the
lease
obligations, which as at June 30, 2007 totaled $468.6 million, have
been
swapped for fixed-rate deposits and fixed-rate obligations. Consequently,
Teekay Nakilat is not subject to interest rate risk from these obligations
and deposits and, therefore, the lease obligations, cash deposits
and
related interest rate swaps have been excluded from the table above.
As at
June 30, 2007, the contract amount, fair value and fixed interest
rates of
these interest rate swaps related to Teekay Nakilat’s capital lease
obligations and restricted cash deposits were $525.0 million and
$484.0
million, $46.5 million and ($57.2) million, and 4.9% and 4.8%
respectively.
|
(7)
|
The
amount of capital lease obligations represents the present value
of
minimum lease payments together with our purchase obligation, as
applicable.
|
(8)
|
The
average interest rate is the weighted-average interest rate implicit
in
the capital lease obligations at the inception of the
leases.
|
(9)
|
The
average variable receive rate for our U.S. Dollar-denominated interest
rate swaps is set quarterly at 3-month
LIBOR.
|
(10)
|
The
average variable receive rate for our Euro-denominated interest rate
swaps
is set monthly at 1-month EURIBOR.
