PART I
Item 1. Description of Business
Teekay has changed its fiscal year end from March 31 to December 31,
effective December 31, 1999, in order to facilitate comparison of its operating
results to those of other companies in the transportation industry.
The Company
Teekay Shipping Corporation ("Teekay"), together with its subsidiaries (the
"Company"), is a leading provider of international crude oil and petroleum
product transportation services through the world's largest fleet of medium size
oil tankers. The Company's modern fleet of tankers provides transportation
services to major oil companies, oil traders and government agencies world wide.
The Company's fleet consists of 74 vessels: 69 Aframax oil tankers and
oil/bulk/ore carriers ("O/B/Os") (including five vessels time-chartered-in and
three vessels owned by a joint venture), two smaller oil tankers, two Suezmax
tankers, and one Very Large Crude Carrier ("VLCC"). The Company's vessels are of
Bahamian, Norwegian, Australian, Liberian, Panamanian or Marshall Islands
registry. The Company's fleet has a total cargo capacity of approximately 7.4
million tonnes and its Aframax vessels represent approximately 10.4% of the
total tonnage of the world Aframax fleet.
The Company's Aframax tanker fleet is one of the most modern fleets in the
world, with an average age of approximately 7.4 years, compared to an average
age for the world oil tanker fleet, including Aframax tankers, of approximately
13.9 years and for the world Aframax tanker fleet of approximately 12.1 years.
The Company has been recognized by customers and rating services for safety,
quality and service. Given the age profile of the world tanker fleet, increasing
emphasis by customers on quality as a result of stringent environmental
regulations, and heightened concerns about liability for oil pollution, the
Company believes that its modern fleet and its emphasis on quality and safety
provide it with a favorable competitive profile.
Through wholly owned subsidiaries located worldwide, the Company provides
substantially all of the operations, ship maintenance, crewing, technical
support, shipyard supervision, insurance and financial management services
necessary to support its fleet.
The Company has a worldwide chartering staff located in Vancouver, Tokyo,
London, Oslo, Houston and Singapore. Each office serves the Company's clients
headquartered in such office's region. Fleet operations, vessel positions and
charter market rates are monitored around the clock. Management believes that
monitoring such information is critical to making informed bids on competitive
brokered business. During the nine month period ended December 31, 1999,
approximately 74% of the Company's net voyage revenues were derived from spot
voyages or time charters and contracts of affreightment priced on a spot market
basis.
The Teekay organization was founded in 1973 to manage and operate oil
tankers. Prior to 1985, the Company chartered-in most of the tonnage that it
subsequently provided to its transportation customers. As the availability of
acceptable chartered-in tonnage declined, management began an expansion of its
owned fleet. Since 1985, the Company has significantly expanded and modernized
its owned fleet by taking delivery of 42 new vessels and acquiring 32 vessels in
the second-hand market, as well as disposing of 29 older tankers over the past
eight years. In addition, the Company acquired control of an additional 26
vessels in its acquisition of Bona Shipholding Ltd. described below.
The Company pursues an intensively customer and operations-oriented business
strategy, emphasizing market concentration and service quality to achieve
superior operating results. The Company believes that it has five key
competitive strengths: (i) market concentration in the Indo-Pacific and Atlantic
Basin, which facilitates comprehensive coverage of charterer requirements and
provides a base for efficient operation and a high degree of capacity
utilization, (ii) full-service marine operations capabilities and experienced
management in all functions critical to its operations, which affords a focused
marketing effort, tight quality and cost controls, improved capacity utilization
and effective operations and safety monitoring, (iii) a modern, high-quality
fleet that operates with high fuel efficiency and low maintenance and operating
costs and affords greater acceptance among charterers in an environment of
increasingly stringent operating and safety standards, (iv) a large,
uniform-size fleet of Aframax (75,000-115,000 dwt) tankers, many of which are in
sister vessel series (substantially identical vessels), which facilitates
scheduling flexibility due to vessel substitution opportunities, permitting
greater responsiveness to customer demands and enhanced capacity utilization,
and which results in lower operating costs than those experienced by smaller
operators and (v) a strong network of customer relationships and a reputation
for transportation excellence among quality-sensitive customers. As a result of
its business strategy, the Company has achieved consistently higher operating
cash flow per vessel as compared to an average of certain other publicly traded
shipping companies. The Company's growth strategy is to leverage its existing
competitive strengths to continue to expand its business. The Company
anticipates that the continued upgrade and expansion of its Aframax tanker
business will continue to be a key component of its strategy. In addition, the
Company believes that its full-service marine operations capabilities,
reputation for safety and quality and strong customer orientation provide it
with the opportunity to expand its business by providing additional value-added
and innovative services, in many cases to existing customers. Finally, the
Company intends to identify expansion opportunities in new tanker market
segments, geographic areas and services to which the Company's competitive
strengths are well suited. The Company may choose to pursue such opportunities
through internal growth, joint ventures or business acquisitions.
Teekay is incorporated under the laws of the Republic of The Marshall
Islands and maintains its principal executive headquarters at the 4th Floor,
Euro Canadian Centre, Marlborough Street & Navy Lyon Road, P.O. Box SS 6293,
Nassau, Commonwealth of the Bahamas. Its telephone number at such address is
(242) 322-8020. The Company's principal operating office is located at Suite
1400, One Bentall Centre, 505 Burrard Street, Vancouver, British Columbia,
Canada, V7X 1M5. Its telephone number at such address is (604) 683-3529.
Acquisition of Bona Shipholding Ltd.
On June 11, 1999, the Company acquired Bona Shipholding Ltd. ("Bona") for
aggregate consideration (including estimated transaction expenses of $19.0
million) of $450.3 million, consisting of $39.9 million in cash, $294.0 million
of assumed debt (net of cash acquired of $91.7 million) and the balance of $97.4
million in shares of the Company's common stock. Bona was the third largest
operator of medium-size tankers, controlling a fleet of vessels consisting of 15
Aframax tankers, eight oil/bulk/ore carriers and, through a joint venture, 50%
interests in one additional Aframax tanker and two Suezmax tankers. Bona engaged
in the transportation of oil, oil products, and dry bulk commodities, primarily
in the Atlantic region. Through this acquisition, the Company has combined
Bona's market strength in the Atlantic region with the Company's franchise in
the Indo-Pacific Basin. For the year ended December 31, 1998, Bona earned net
voyage revenues of $148.9 million resulting in income from vessel operations of
$29.5 million and net income of $16.6 million. Bona's operating results are
reflected in the Company's financial statements commencing the effective date of
the acquisition.
As a result of this acquisition, the Company anticipates annual cost savings of
approximately $10 million, commencing after an estimated 12-month integration
period, through a reduction in combined overhead costs, increased purchasing
power, and other operational efficiencies. The Company also believes that the
acquisition will create revenue enhancement opportunities as a result of owning
a larger fleet with a greater selection of vessels to match customer demands and
enable the Company to further extend the breadth of services provided to its
customers.
Competition
International seaborne oil and other petroleum products transportation
services are provided by two main types of operators: captive fleets of major
oil companies (both private and state-owned) and independent ship owner fleets.
Many major oil companies and other oil trading companies, the primary charterers
of the vessels owned or controlled by the Company, also operate their own
vessels and transport their own oil as well as oil for third party charterers in
direct competition with independent owners and operators. Competition for
charters is intense and is based upon price, location, the size, age, condition
and acceptability of the vessel, and the vessel's manager. Competition in the
Aframax segment is also affected by the availability of other size vessels that
compete in the Company's markets. Suezmax (115,000 to 200,000 dwt) size vessels
and Panamax (50,000 to 75,000 dwt) size vessels can compete for many of the same
charters for which the Company competes. Because of their large size, Ultra
Large Crude Carriers (320,000+ dwt) ("ULCCs") and VLCCs (200,000 to 320,000 dwt)
rarely compete directly with Aframax tankers for specific charters; however,
because ULCCs and VLCCs comprise a substantial portion of the total capacity of
the market, movements by such vessels into Suezmax trades and of Suezmax vessels
into Aframax trades would heighten the already intense competition.
The Company competes principally with other Aframax owners through the
global tanker charter market, comprised of tanker broker companies which
represent both charterers and ship owners in chartering transactions. Within
this market, some transactions, referred to as "market cargoes," are offered by
charterers through two or more brokers simultaneously and shown to the widest
possible range of owners; other transactions, referred to as "private cargoes,"
are given by the charterer to only one broker and shown selectively to a limited
number of owners whose tankers are most likely to be acceptable to the charterer
and are in position to undertake the voyage. Management estimates that the
Company transacts approximately one-third of its spot voyages from market
cargoes, the remainder being either private cargoes or direct cargoes transacted
directly with charterers outside this market.
Other large operators of Aframax tonnage include Neptune Orient Lines Ltd.
(owned partially by the Singapore government), with approximately 22 Aframax
vessels, Shell International Marine, a subsidiary of Royal Dutch/Shell Petroleum
Corporation, with approximately 16 Aframax vessels, trading globally (9 of which
are on charter), Ermis Maritime Corp., with approximately 15 Aframax vessels,
and Tanker Pacific Management, which controls approximately 11 Aframax vessels.
Management believes that it has significant competitive advantages in the
Aframax tanker market as a result of the age, quality, type and dimensions of
its vessels and its market share in the Indo-Pacific and Atlantic Basins. Some
competitors of the Company, however, may have greater financial strength and
capital resources than the Company.
As part of its growth strategy, the Company will continue to consider
strategic opportunities, including business acquisitions, such as the
acquisition of Bona. To the extent the Company enters new geographic areas or
tanker market segments, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able
to compete successfully therein. New markets may involve competitive factors
which differ from those of the Aframax market segment in the Indo-Pacific and
Atlantic Basins and may include participants which have greater financial
strength and capital resources than the Company.
Regulation
The business of the Company and the operation of its vessels are materially
affected by government regulation in the form of international conventions,
national, state and local laws and regulations in force in the jurisdictions in
which the vessels operate, as well as in the country or countries of their
registration. Because such conventions, laws, and regulations are often revised,
the Company cannot predict the ultimate cost of complying with such conventions,
laws and regulations or the impact thereof on the resale price or useful life of
its vessels. Additional conventions, laws and regulations may be adopted which
could limit the ability of the Company to do business or increase the cost of
its doing business and which may have a material adverse effect on the Company's
operations. The Company is required by various governmental and
quasi-governmental agencies to obtain certain permits, licenses and certificates
with respect to its operations. Subject to the discussion below and to the fact
that the kinds of permits, licenses and certificates required for the operations
of the vessels owned by the Company will depend upon a number of factors, the
Company believes that it has been and will be able to obtain all permits,
licenses and certificates material to the conduct of its operations.
The Company believes that the heightened environmental and quality concerns
of insurance underwriters, regulators and charterers will impose greater
inspection and safety requirements on all vessels in the tanker market and will
accelerate the scrapping of older vessels throughout the industry.
Environmental Regulation--International Maritime Organization ("IMO"). On
March 6, 1992, the IMO adopted regulations which set forth new and upgraded
requirements for pollution prevention for tankers. These regulations, which went
into effect on July 6, 1995, in many jurisdictions in which the Company's tanker
fleet operates, provide that (i) tankers between 25 and 30 years old must be of
double-hull construction or of a mid-deck design with double side construction,
unless they have wing tanks or double-bottom spaces, not used for the carriage
of oil, which cover at least 30% of the length of the cargo tank section of the
hull, or are capable of hydrostatically balanced loading which ensures at least
the same level of protection against oil spills in the event of collision or
stranding, (ii) tankers 30 years old or older must be of double-hull
construction or mid-deck design with double-side construction, and (iii) all
tankers will be subject to enhanced inspections. Also, under IMO regulations, a
tanker must be of double-hull construction or a mid-deck design with double side
construction or be of another approved design ensuring the same level of
protection against oil pollution in the event that such tanker (i) is the
subject of a contract for a major conversion or original construction on or
after July 6, 1993, (ii) commences a major conversion or has its keel laid on or
after January 6, 1994, or (iii) completes a major conversion or is a newbuilding
delivered on or after July 6, 1996.
Under the current regulations, the single-hulled vessels of the Company's
existing fleet will be able to operate for substantially all of their respective
economic lives before being required to have double-hulls. None of the Company's
vessels are older than 20 years, therefore, the IMO requirements currently in
effect regarding 25 and 30 year-old tankers will not affect the Company's fleet
in the near future. However, compliance with the new regulations regarding
inspections of all vessels may adversely affect the Company's operations. The
Company cannot at the present time evaluate the likelihood or magnitude of any
such adverse effect on the Company's operations due to uncertainty of
interpretation of the IMO regulations.
The operation of the Company's vessels is also affected by the requirements
set forth in the IMO's International Management Code for the Safe Operation of
Ships and Pollution Prevention (the "ISM Code"). The ISM Code requires
shipowners and bareboat charterers to develop and maintain an extensive "Safety
Management System" that includes the adoption of a safety and environmental
protection policy setting forth instructions and procedures for safe operation
and describing procedures for dealing with emergencies. The failure of a
shipowner or bareboat charterer to comply with the ISM Code may subject such
party to increased liability, may decrease available insurance coverage for the
affected vessels, and may result in a denial of access to, or detention in,
certain ports. Currently, each of the Company's applicable vessels is ISM
code-certified. However, there can be no assurance that such certification will
be maintained indefinitely.
Environmental Regulations--The United States Oil Pollution Act of 1990 ("OPA
90"). OPA 90 established an extensive regulatory and liability regime for the
protection and cleanup of the environment from oil spills. OPA 90 affects all
owners and operators whose vessels trade to the United States or its territories
or possessions or whose vessels operate in United States waters, which include
the United States' territorial sea and its two hundred nautical mile exclusive
economic zone.
Under OPA 90, vessel owners, operators and bareboat (or "demise") charterers
are "responsible parties" and are jointly, severally and strictly liable (unless
the spill results solely from the act or omission of a third party, an act of
God or an act of war) for all containment and clean-up costs and other damages
arising from discharges or threatened discharges of oil from their vessels.
These other damages are defined broadly to include (i) natural resources damages
and the costs of assessment thereof, (ii) real and personal property damages,
(iii) net loss of taxes, royalties, rents, fees and other lost revenues, (iv)
lost profits or impairment of earning capacity due to property or natural
resources damage, (v) net cost of public services necessitated by a spill
response, such as protection from fire, safety or health hazards, and (vi) loss
of subsistence use of natural resources. OPA 90 limits the liability of
responsible parties to the greater of $1,200 per gross ton or $10 million per
tanker that is over 3,000 gross tons (subject to possible adjustment for
inflation). These limits of liability would not apply if the incident was
proximately caused by violation of applicable United States federal safety,
construction or operating regulations or by the responsible party's gross
negligence or willful misconduct, or if the responsible party fails or refuses
to report the incident or to cooperate and assist in connection with the oil
removal activities. The Company currently plans to continue to maintain for each
of its vessels pollution liability coverage in the amount of $1 billion per
incident. A catastrophic spill could exceed the insurance coverage available, in
which event there could be a material adverse effect on the Company.
Under OPA 90, with certain limited exceptions, all newly built or converted
tankers operating in United States waters must be built with double-hulls, and
existing vessels which do not comply with the double-hull requirement must be
phased out over a 25-year period (1990-2015) based on size, age and hull
construction. Nine of the Company's non-double-hulled vessels are over 15 years
old, and the oldest of these vessels, the Teekay Foam and Teekay Favour, would
not be phased-out under the double-hull regulations until April 2009 and
November 2009, respectively. Notwithstanding the phase-out period, OPA 90
currently permits existing single-hull tankers to operate until the year 2015 if
their operations within United States waters are limited to discharging at the
Louisiana Off-Shore Oil Platform, or off-loading by means of lightering
activities within authorized lightering zones more than 60 miles off-shore.
OPA 90 requires owners and operators of vessels to establish and maintain
with the United States Coast Guard (the "Coast Guard") evidence of financial
responsibility sufficient to meet their potential liabilities under OPA 90. In
December 1994, the Coast Guard implemented regulations requiring evidence of
financial responsibility in the amount of $1,500 per gross ton for tankers,
coupling the OPA limitation on liability of $1,200 per gross ton with the
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act liability
limit of $300 per gross ton. Under the regulations, such evidence of financial
responsibility may be demonstrated by insurance, surety bond, self-insurance, or
guaranty. Under OPA 90, an owner or operator of a fleet of tankers is required
only to demonstrate evidence of financial responsibility in an amount sufficient
to cover the tanker in the fleet having the greatest maximum liability under OPA
90.
The Coast Guard's regulations concerning certificates of financial
responsibility provide, in accordance with OPA 90, that claimants may bring suit
directly against an insurer or guarantor that furnishes certificates of
financial responsibility; and, in the event that such insurer or guarantor is
sued directly, it is prohibited from asserting any contractual defense that it
may have had against the responsible party and is limited to asserting those
defenses available to the responsible party and the defense that the incident
was caused by the willful misconduct of the responsible party. Certain
organizations, which had typically provided certificates of financial
responsibility under pre-OPA 90 laws, including the major protection and
indemnity organizations, declined to furnish evidence of insurance for vessel
owners and operators if they are subject to direct actions or required to waive
insurance policy defenses.
The Coast Guard's financial responsibility regulations may also be satisfied
by evidence of surety bond, guaranty or by self-insurance. Under the
self-insurance provisions, the ship owner or operator must have a net worth and
working capital, measured in assets located in the United States against
liabilities located anywhere in the world, that exceeds the applicable amount of
financial responsibility. The Company has complied with the Coast Guard
regulations by providing a financial guaranty from a related company evidencing
sufficient self-insurance.
OPA 90 specifically permits individual states to impose their own liability
regimes with regard to oil pollution incidents occurring within their
boundaries, and some states have enacted legislation providing for unlimited
liability for oil spills. In some cases, states which have enacted such
legislation have not yet issued implementing regulations defining tanker owners'
responsibilities under these laws. The Company intends to comply with all
applicable state regulations in the ports where the Company's vessels call.
Owners or operators of tankers operating in United States waters are
required to file vessel response plans with the Coast Guard, and their tankers
are required to operate in compliance with their Coast Guard approved plans.
Such response plans must, among other things, (i) address a "worst case"
scenario and identify and ensure, through contract or other approved means, the
availability of necessary private response resources to respond to a "worst case
discharge," (ii) describe crew training and drills, and (iii) identify a
qualified individual with full authority to implement removal actions. The
Company has filed vessel response plans with the Coast Guard for the tankers
owned by the Company and has received approval of such plans for all vessels in
its fleet to operate in United States waters.
Environmental Regulation--Other Environmental Initiatives. The European
Union is considering legislation that will affect the operation of tankers and
the liability of owners for oil pollution. It is difficult to predict what
legislation, if any, may be promulgated by the European Union or any other
country or authority.
Although the United States is not a party thereto, many countries have
ratified and follow the liability scheme adopted by the IMO and set out in the
International Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage, 1969, as
amended (the "CLC"), and the Convention for the Establishment of an
International Fund for Oil Pollution of 1971, as amended. Under these
conventions, a vessel's registered owner is strictly liable for pollution damage
caused on the territorial waters of a contracting state by discharge of
persistent oil, subject to certain complete defenses. Many of the countries that
have ratified the CLC have increased the liability limits through a 1992
Protocol to the CLC. The liability limits in the countries that have ratified
this Protocol are currently approximately $4.0 million plus approximately $566.0
per gross registered tonne above 5,000 gross tonnes with an approximate maximum
of $80.5 million, with the exact amount tied to a unit of account which varies
according to a basket of currencies. The right to limit liability is forfeited
under the CLC where the spill is caused by the owner's actual fault or privity
and, under the 1992 Protocol, where the spill is caused by the owner's
intentional or reckless conduct. Vessels trading to contracting states must
provide evidence of insurance covering the limited liability of the owner. In
jurisdictions where the CLC has not been adopted, various legislative schemes or
common law govern, and liability is imposed either on the basis of fault or in a
manner similar to the CLC.
Risk of Loss and Insurance
The operation of any ocean-going vessel carries an inherent risk of
catastrophic marine disasters and property losses caused by adverse weather
conditions, mechanical failures, human error, war, terrorism, piracy and other
circumstances or events. In addition, the transportation of crude oil is subject
to the risk of crude oil spills, and business interruptions due to political
circumstances in foreign countries, hostilities, labor strikes, and boycotts.
Any such event may result in loss of revenues or increased costs.
The Company carries insurance to protect against most of the
accident-related risks involved in the conduct of its business and it maintains
environmental damage and pollution insurance coverage. The Company does not
carry insurance covering the loss of revenue resulting from vessel off-hire
time. There can be no assurance that all covered risks are adequately insured
against, that any particular claim will be paid or that the Company will be able
to procure adequate insurance coverage at commercially reasonable rates in the
future. More stringent environmental regulations at times in the past have
resulted in increased costs for, and may result in the lack of availability of,
insurance against the risks of environmental damage or pollution.
Operations Outside the United States
The operations of the Company are primarily conducted outside of the United
States and, therefore, may be affected by currency fluctuations and by changing
economic, political and governmental conditions in the countries where the
Company is engaged in business or where its vessels are registered. During the
nine month period ended December 31, 1999, the Company derived approximately 57%
of its total revenues from its operations in the Indo-Pacific Basin. In the
past, political conflicts in such regions, particularly in the Arabian Gulf,
have included attacks on tankers, mining of waterways and other efforts to
disrupt shipping in the area. Vessels trading in such regions have also been
subject to, in limited instances, acts of terrorism and piracy. Future
hostilities or other political instability in the region could affect the
Company's trade patterns and adversely affect the Company's operations and
performance.
Crewing and Staff
The Company employs approximately 2,700 seagoing staff around the world and
approximately 300 personnel ashore.
The Company places great emphasis on attracting, through its recruiting
offices in Manila, Glasgow, Sydney, Mumbai and Latvia, qualified crew members
for employment on the Company's tankers. Recruiting has become an increasingly
difficult task for operators in the tanker industry. The Company pays
competitive salaries and provides competitive benefits to its personnel and
tries to promote, when possible, from within their ranks. Management believes
that the well maintained quarters and equipment on the Company's vessels help to
attract and retain motivated and qualified seamen and officers. During fiscal
1996, the Company entered into a Collective Bargaining Agreement with the
Philippine Seafarers' Union (PSU), an affiliate of the International Transport
Workers' Federation (ITF), and a Special Agreement with ITF London, which covers
substantially all of the Company's junior officers and seamen. The Collective
Bargaining Agreement and the Special Agreement did not result in any significant
increase in the levels of wages paid or benefits provided to members of the
vessel crews. The Company is also a party to Enterprise Bargaining Agreements
with three Australian maritime unions, covering officers and seamen. The time
charters covering the Australian vessels provide that increases in wages or
benefits for the Company's Australian-crewed vessels will be passed on to the
customer. Bona's officers and seamen are also covered under Special Agreements
with ITF London.
The Company has a cadet training program, the purpose of which is to develop
a cadre of future senior officers for the Company, with one specially equipped
vessel staffed with an instructor and trainees. In addition to the basic
training that all seamen are required to undergo to achieve certification, the
Company provides additional training of as much as one month for all newly hired
seamen and junior officers at training facilities in the Philippines. Safety
procedures are a critical element of this training and continue to be emphasized
through the Company's onboard training program. Management believes that high
quality manning and training policies will play an increasingly important role
in distinguishing larger independent tanker companies which have in-house (or
affiliate) capabilities, from smaller companies that must rely on outside ship
managers and crewing agents.
Customers
Customers of the Company include major oil companies, major oil traders,
large oil consumers and petroleum product producers, government agencies, and
various other entities dependent upon the tanker transportation trade. One
customer, an international oil company, accounted for 13% ($48,140,000) of the
company's consolidated voyage revenues during the nine month period ended
December 31, 1999. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of the
Company's consolidated voyage revenues. Three customers, all international oil
companies, individually accounted for 12% ($51,411,000), 12% ($50,727,000) and
10% ($42,797,000), respectively, of the Company's consolidated voyage revenues
during the year ended March 31, 1999. A single customer, also an international
oil company, accounted for 14% ($56,357,000) of the Company's consolidated
voyages revenues during the year ended March 31, 1998.
Taxation of the Company
The legal jurisdictions of the countries in which Teekay and the majority
of its subsidiaries are incorporated do not impose income taxes upon
shipping-related activities. The Company's Australian ship-owning subsidiaries
are subject to income taxes. In addition, some subsidiaries pay taxes in the
jurisdictions in which they operate in connection with the revenue generated

Many of the Company's vessels have been designed and constructed as
substantially identical sister ships. Such vessels can, in many situations, be
interchanged, providing scheduling flexibility and greater capacity utilization.
In addition, spare parts and technical knowledge can be applied to all the
vessels in the particular series, thereby generating operating efficiencies and
economies of scale.
See Note 6 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for information with
respect to major encumbrances against vessels of the Company.
Classification and Inspection
All of the Company's vessels have been certified as being "in class" by
their respective classification societies: Nippon Kaiji Kyokai, Lloyds Register,
Det Norske Veritas or American Bureau of Shipping. Every commercial vessel's
hull and machinery is "classed" by a classification society authorized by its
country of registry. The classification society certifies that the vessel has
been built and maintained in accordance with the rules of such classification
society and complies with applicable rules and regulations of the country of
registry of the vessel and the international conventions of which that country
is a member. Each vessel is inspected by a surveyor of the classification
society every year ("Annual Survey"), every two to three years ("Intermediate
Survey") and every four to five years ("Special Survey"). Vessels also may be
required, as part of the Intermediate Survey process, to be drydocked every 24
to 30 months for inspection of the underwater parts of the vessel and for
necessary repair related to such inspection. Many of the Company's vessels have
qualified with their respective classification societies for drydocking every
five years in connection with the Special Survey and are no longer subject to
the Intermediate Survey drydocking process. To so qualify, the Company was
required to enhance the resiliency of the underwater coatings of each such
vessel as well as to install apparatus on each vessel to accommodate thorough
underwater inspection by divers.
In addition to the classification inspections, many of the Company's
customers, including the major oil companies, regularly inspect the Company's
vessels as a precondition to chartering voyages on such vessels. Management
believes that the Company's well-maintained, high quality tonnage should provide
it with a competitive advantage in the current environment of increasing
regulation and customer emphasis on quality of service.
Company employees perform much of the necessary ordinary course maintenance
and regularly inspect all of the Company's vessels, both at sea and while the
vessels are in port. The Company inspects its vessels two to four times per year
using predetermined and rigorous criteria. Each vessel is examined and specific
notations are made, and recommendations are given for improvements to the
overall condition of the vessel, maintenance, safety, and crew welfare.
The Company has obtained through Det Norske Veritas, the Norwegian
classification society, accreditation with the ISO 9000 standards of total
quality management. ISO 9000 is a series of international standards for quality
systems which includes ISO 9002, the standard most commonly used in the shipping
industry. The Company has also completed the implementation of the International
Safety Management (ISM) code. The Company has obtained Documents of Compliance
(DOC) for its offices and Safety Management Certificates (SMC) for its
applicable vessels.
Item 3. Legal Proceedings
From time to time the Company has been, and expects to continue to be,
subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of its business,
principally personal injury and property casualty claims. Such claims, even if
lacking merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and
managerial resources. The Company is not aware of any legal proceedings or
claims that it believes will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material
adverse effect on the Company or on its financial condition or results of
operations.

Teekay Shipping Corporation was incorporated in the Republic of Liberia on
February 9, 1979 and was domesticated in the Republic of The Marshall Islands on
December 20, 1999.
(a) Republic of Liberia. Since, (i) prior to its domestication in the Republic
of The Marshall Islands, Teekay Shipping Corporation was a "non-resident
Liberian entity" under the Liberian Internal Revenue Code, and is now a
"non-resident foreign person" under the Liberian Internal Revenue Code,
(ii) the Company is not now carrying on, and in the future does not expect
to carry on, any operations within the Republic of Liberia, and (iii)
Teekay's 8.32% First Preferred Ship Mortgage Notes and all documentation
relating to the Notes and to the public offering of Teekay's common stock
were executed outside of the Republic of Liberia, and assuming the holders
of the Notes and the Common Stock neither reside in, maintain an office in,
nor engage in business in, the Republic of Liberia, under current Liberian
law, no taxes or withholdings are imposed by the Republic of Liberia on
payments to be made in respect to the Notes or on distributions made in
respect of the Common Stock. Furthermore, no stamp, capital gains or other
taxes will be imposed by the Republic of Liberia on the ownership or
disposition of the Common Stock by holders thereof.
(b) Republic of The Marshall Islands. Since, (i) Teekay Shipping Corporation is
not now carrying on or conducting, and in the future does not expect to
carry on or conduct, any business or transactions within the Republic of
The Marshall Islands and therefore is now, and in the future intends to
remain, a "non-resident domestic corporation" under The Marshall Islands
Business Corporations Act, and (ii) Teekay's 8.32% First Preferred Ship
Mortgage Notes and all documentation relating to the Notes and to the
public offering of Teekay's common stock were executed outside of the
Republic of The Marshall Islands, and assuming the holders of the Notes and
the Common Stock neither reside in, maintain an office in, engage in
business in, nor conduct transactions in, the Republic of The Marshall
Islands, under current Marshall Islands law, no taxes or withholdings are
imposed by the Republic of The Marshall Islands on payments to be made in
respect to the Notes or on distributions made in respect of the Common
Stock. Furthermore, no stamp, capital gains or other taxes will be imposed
by the Republic of The Marshall Islands on the ownership or disposition of

(Footnotes on following page)
(Footnotes for previous page)
(1) Cash earnings represents net income (loss) before extraordinary items,
foreign exchange gains (losses), and before depreciation and amortization
expense. Cash earnings is included because it is used by certain
investors to measure a company's financial performance as compared to
other companies in the shipping industry. Cash earnings is not required
by generally accepted accounting principles and should not be considered
as an alternative to net income or any other indicator of the Company's
performance required by generally accepted accounting principles.
(2) EBITDA represents net income (loss) before extraordinary items, interest
expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense,
minority interest, and gains or losses arising from prepayment of debt,
foreign exchange translation and disposal of assets. EBITDA is included
because such data is used by certain investors to measure a company's
financial performance. EBITDA is not required by generally accepted
accounting principles and should not be considered as an alternative to
net income or any other indicator of the Company's performance required
by generally accepted accounting principles.
(3) For purposes of computing EBITDA to interest expense, interest expense
includes capitalized interest but excludes amortization of loan costs.
(4) Net debt represents total debt less cash, cash equivalents and marketable
securities.
(5) Includes vessels time-chartered-in, but excludes vessels of joint
ventures.
(6) Average age of Company's Aframax fleet is the average age, at the end of
the relevant period, of all the vessels owned, leased or
time-chartered-in by the Company, excluding vessels of joint ventures.
(7) TCE (or "time charter equivalent") is a measure of the revenue
performance of a vessel, which, on a per voyage basis, is generally
determined by Clarkson Research Studies Inc. ("Clarkson") and other
industry data sources by subtracting voyage expenses (except commissions)
which are incurred in transporting cargo from gross revenue per voyage
and dividing the remaining revenue by the total number of days required
for the round-trip voyage. Voyage expenses comprise all expenses relating
to particular voyages, including bunker fuel expense, port fees and canal
tolls. For purposes of calculating the Company's average TCE for the
year, TCE has been calculated consistent with Clarkson's method, by
deducting total voyage expenses (except commissions) from total voyage
revenues and dividing the remaining sum by the Company's total voyage
days in the year.
(8) To facilitate comparison to prior years' results, excludes the results
from the Company's Australian-crewed vessels, which comprised four of the
Company's vessels during the nine month period ended December 31, 1999,
the year ended March 31, 1999 and the fourth quarter of the year ended
March 31, 1998. Vessel operating expenses for the Australian-crewed
vessels are substantially higher than those for the rest of the Company's
fleet on a per ship basis, primarily as a result of higher crew costs,
with correspondingly higher charter rates associated with the charter
arrangements for those vessels. See "Item 9. Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition--General."
(9) Vessel operating expenses consist of all expenses relating to the
operation of vessels (other than voyage expenses), including crewing,
repairs and maintenance, insurance, stores and lubes, and miscellaneous
expenses including communications. Ship days are calculated on the basis
of a 365-day year multiplied by the average number of vessels in the
Company's fleet for the respective year. Vessel operating expenses
exclude vessels time-chartered-in.
(10) Operating cash flow represents income from vessel operations plus
depreciation and amortization expense (other than drydock amortization
expense). Ship days are calculated on the basis of a 365-day fiscal year
multiplied by the average number of vessels in the Company's fleet for the
respective year. Operating cash flow is not required by generally accepted
accounting principles and should not be considered as an alternative to net
income or any other indicator of the Company's performance required by
generally accepted accounting principles.
Item 9. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations
Teekay has changed its fiscal year end from March 31 to December 31,
effective December 31, 1999, in order to facilitate comparison of its operating
results to those of other companies in the transportation industry.
General
Teekay is a leading provider of international crude oil and petroleum
product transportation services to major oil companies, major oil traders and
government agencies worldwide. The Company's fleet consists of 74 vessels
(including five vessels time-chartered-in and three vessels owned by a joint
venture), for a total cargo-carrying capacity of approximately 7.4 million
tonnes.
During the nine months ended December 31, 1999, approximately 61% of the
Company's net voyage revenues were derived from spot voyages. The balance of the
Company's revenue is generated by two other modes of employment: time charters,
whereby vessels are chartered to customers for a fixed period; and contracts of
affreightment ("COAs"), whereby the Company carries an agreed quantity of cargo
for a customer over a specified trade route within a given period of time. In
the nine months ended December 31, 1999, approximately 13% of net voyage
revenues were generated by time charters and COAs priced on a spot market basis.
In the aggregate, approximately 74% of the Company's net voyage revenues during
the nine months ended December 31, 1999 were derived from spot voyages or time
charters and COAs priced on a spot market basis, with the remaining 26% being
derived from fixed-rate time-charters and COAs. This dependence on the spot
market, which is within industry norms, contributes to the volatility of the
Company's revenues, cash flow from operations, and net income.
Historically, the tanker industry has been cyclical, experiencing volatility
in profitability and asset values resulting from changes in the supply of, and
demand for, vessel capacity. In addition, tanker markets have historically
exhibited seasonal variations in charter rates. Tanker markets are typically
stronger in the winter months as a result of increased oil consumption in the
northern hemisphere and unpredictable weather patterns that tend to disrupt
vessel scheduling.
In December 1997, the Company acquired two vessels and related shore support
services from an Australian affiliate of Caltex Petroleum. These two tankers,
together with one of the Company's existing Aframax tankers, have been time
chartered to the Caltex affiliate in connection with the Company's provision of
Caltex's oil transportation requirements formerly provided by that affiliate. In
addition, the Company has converted one of its existing vessels to a floating
storage and off-loading vessel, which is sharing crews with the vessels employed
in the Caltex arrangement (together with the other three vessels involved in
this arrangement, the "Australian Vessels"). Vessel operating expenses for the
Australian Vessels are substantially higher than those for the rest of the
Company's fleet, primarily as a result of higher costs associated with employing
an Australian crew. The time-charter rates for the Australian Vessels are
correspondingly higher to compensate for these increased costs. During the nine
months ended December 31, 1999, the Australian Vessels earned net voyage
revenues and an average TCE rate (as defined below) of $27.2 million and
$25,218, respectively, and incurred vessel operating expenses of $9.3 million,
or $8,485 on a per ship per day basis. In comparison, during the year ended
March 31, 1999, the Australian Vessels earned net voyage revenues and an average
TCE rate of $38.2 million and $26,329, respectively, and incurred vessel
operating expenses of $14.9 million, or $10,173 on a per ship per day basis. The
results of the Australian Vessels are included in the Company's Consolidated
Financial Statements included herein.
Acquisition of Bona Shipholding Ltd.
On June 11, 1999, the Company acquired Bona Shipholding Ltd. ("Bona") for
aggregate consideration (including estimated transaction expenses of $19.0
million) of $450.3 million, consisting of $39.9 million in cash, $294.0 million
of assumed debt (net of cash acquired of $91.7 million) and the balance of $97.4
million in shares of the Company's common stock. Bona was the third largest
operator of medium-size tankers, controlling a fleet of vessels consisting of
fifteen Aframax tankers, eight oil/bulk/ore carriers and, through a joint
venture, 50% interests in one additional Aframax tanker and two Suezmax tankers.
Bona engaged in the transportation of oil, oil products, and dry bulk
commodities, primarily in the Atlantic region. Through this acquisition, the
Company has combined Bona's market strength in the Atlantic region with the
Company's franchise in the Indo-Pacific Basin. For the year ended December 31,
1998, Bona earned net voyage revenues of $148.9 million resulting in income from
vessel operations of $29.5 million and net income of $16.6 million.
The acquisition of Bona has been accounted for using the purchase method of
accounting. Bona's operating results are reflected in the Company's financial
statements commencing June 11, 1999.
As a result of this acquisition, the Company anticipates annual cost savings
of approximately $10 million, commencing after an estimated 12-month integration
period, through a reduction in combined overhead costs, increased purchasing
power, and other operational efficiencies. The Company also believes that the
acquisition will create revenue enhancement opportunities as a result of owning
a larger fleet with a greater selection of vessels to match customer demands and
enable the Company to further extend the breadth of services provided to its
customers.
Historically, the Company has depreciated its vessels for accounting
purposes over an economic life of 20 years down to estimated residual values.
Bona depreciated its vessels over an economic life of 25 years down to estimated
scrap values, the method used by the majority of companies in the shipping
industry. Effective April 1, 1999, the Company revised the estimated useful life
of its vessels to 25 years and also replaced the estimated residual values with
estimated scrap values. Since such changes, the Company's average depreciation
expense per vessel has decreased from historical levels.
As a result of the Bona acquisition, the Company expects that its general
and administrative expenses, while remaining relatively stable on a per vessel
basis during the first few fiscal quarters of combined operations, will begin to
decline on a per vessel basis as efficiencies are obtained from the integration
of the two companies' operations. The Company's interest expense has increased
as a result of debt that was assumed as part of the acquisition.
All oil/bulk/ore carriers ("O/B/O") owned by Bona have been operated through
an O/B/O pool managed by a subsidiary of Bona. Net voyage revenues from the
O/B/O pool are currently included on a 100% basis in the Company's consolidated
financial statements. Where the Company owns less than 50% of a vessel, the
minority participants' share of the O/B/O pool is reflected as a time charter
hire expense. The Company anticipates that these O/B/Os will earn lower average
TCE rates than the rest of the Teekay fleet as these vessels command lower rates
than modern Aframax tankers under typical market conditions, which reflects the
lower capital cost of these vessels.
Results of Operations
Bulk shipping industry freight rates are commonly measured at the net voyage
revenue level in terms of "time charter equivalent" (or "TCE") rates, defined as
voyage revenues less voyage expenses (excluding commissions), divided by voyage
ship-days for the round-trip voyage. Voyage revenues and voyage expenses are a
function of the type of charter, either spot charter or time charter, and port,
canal and fuel costs depending on the trade route upon which a vessel is
sailing, in addition to being a function of the level of shipping freight rates.
For this reason, shipowners base economic decisions regarding the deployment of
their vessels upon anticipated TCE rates, and industry analysts typically
measure bulk shipping freight rates in terms of TCE rates. Therefore, the
discussion of revenue below focuses on net voyage revenue and TCE rates.
Nine Months Ended December 31, 1999 versus Year Ended March 31, 1999
As a result of the Company's change in fiscal year end from March 31 to
December 31, the current fiscal period's results are for the nine month period
ended December 31, 1999, while the comparative results are for the twelve month
period ended March 31, 1999. Where indicated in the following discussions,
percentage change figures reflect the annualized results for the nine month
period ended December 31, 1999. The annualized results for the nine month period
ended December 31, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of those for a full
fiscal year.
The results for the nine month period ended December 31, 1999 include the
results of Bona commencing June 11, 1999. On an annualized basis, the Company's
average fleet size increased 39.5% in the nine month period ended December 31,
1999 compared to the year ended March 31, 1999.
Aframax TCE rates declined during the second half of 1998 and 1999 due to a
reduction in tanker demand, oil production cutbacks and a large number of
newbuilding deliveries. TCE rates will depend upon oil production levels, oil
consumption growth, the number of vessels scrapped and charterers' preference
for modern tankers. As a result of the Company's dependence on the tanker spot
market, any fluctuations in Aframax TCE rates will impact the Company's revenues
and earnings.
Net voyage revenues were $248.4 million in the nine month period ended
December 31, 1999, as compared to $318.4 million in the year ended March 31,
1999, representing a 4.0% increase on an annualized basis from the year ended
March 31, 1999. This is mainly the result of an increase in fleet size, offset
by a 31.5% decrease in the Company's average TCE rate, excluding the Australian
Vessels, of $13,410 for the nine month period ended December 31, 1999, from
$19,576 for the year ended March 31, 1999. As of December 31, 1999, the Company
changed its process of estimating net voyage revenues from a load port-to-load
port basis to a discharge port-to-discharge port basis, which is consistent with
most other shipping companies. This change in voyage estimate resulted in a
one-time increase in net voyage revenues of $5.7 million for the nine month
period ended December 31, 1999.
Vessel operating expenses, which include crewing, repairs and maintenance,
insurance, stores, lubes, and communication expenses, increased to $98.8 million
in the nine month period ended December 31, 1999 from $84.4 million in the year
ended March 31, 1999, representing a 56.1% increase on an annualized basis. This
increase was mainly the result of the addition of the Bona vessels, which
currently have higher operating expenses than the remainder of Teekay's fleet.
Time charter hire expense was $30.7 million in the nine month period ended
December 31, 1999, up from $29.7 million in the year ended March 31, 1999,
primarily due to the Bona acquisition. The minority pool participants' net
voyage revenues in the O/B/O pool managed by a Bona subsidiary is reflected as
time charter hire expense. The average number of vessels time-chartered-in by
the Company was four in the nine month period ended December 31, 1999, the same
as in the year ended March 31, 1999.
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased to $68.3 million in the nine
month period ended December 31, 1999, from $93.7 million in the year ended March
31, 1999, representing a 2.8% decrease on an annualized basis. This reflects the
change in estimated useful life of the vessels from 20 to 25 years, partially
offset by the increase in fleet size arising from the acquisition of Bona.
Depreciation and amortization expense included amortization of drydocking costs
of $6.3 million and $8.6 million in the nine month period ended December 31,
1999 and in the year ended March 31, 1999, respectively. Had Teekay retained its
previous depreciation policy and applied this policy to the Bona fleet,
depreciation expense would have been $22.5 million higher in the current period.
General and administrative expenses were $27.0 million in the nine month
period ended December 31, 1999, as compared to $25.0 million in the year ended
March 31, 1999, representing a 44.1% increase on an annualized basis primarily
as a result of the acquisition of Bona.
Interest expense increased to $45.0 million in the nine month period ended
December 31, 1999 from $44.8 million in the year ended March 31, 1999,
representing a 33.9% increase on an annualized basis. This increase reflects the
$386 million in additional debt assumed as part of the Bona acquisition and an
increase in interest rates.
Interest income decreased to $5.8 million in the nine month period ended
December 31, 1999 from $6.4 million in the year ended March 31, 1999. On an
annualized basis, interest income increased by 20.8% as a result of increased
interest rates and higher cash and marketable securities balances.
Other loss of $4.0 million in the nine month period ended December 31, 1999
consisted primarily of future income taxes related to the Australian Vessels and
one-time employee and severance-related costs, partially offset by equity income
from a 50%-owned joint venture. Other income of $5.5 million in the year ended
March 31, 1999 consisted primarily of gains on the sale of vessels.
As a result of the foregoing factors, net loss was $19.6 million in the nine
month period ended December 31, 1999, compared to net income of $45.4 million in
the year ended March 31, 1999. The results for the year ended March 31, 1999
included an extraordinary loss of $7.3 million on the redemption of the
Company's 9 5/8% First Preferred Ship Mortgage Notes (the "9 5/8% Notes"), and
gains on asset sales of $7.1 million. There were no extraordinary items and no
asset sales in the nine month period ended December 31, 1999.
Year Ended March 31, 1999 ("Fiscal 1999") versus Year Ended March 31, 1998
("Fiscal 1998")
Operating results for these two fiscal years generally reflect a cyclical
peak in average TCE rates in fiscal 1998 followed by a decline in TCE rates
experienced by the Company's fleet during the second half of fiscal 1999 and
growth in the size of the Company's fleet. In addition, the fiscal 1999 results
include a full year of results from the four Australian Vessels whereas the
fiscal 1998 results only include approximately three months of results from
three of the Australian Vessels, which have higher operating expenses and earn
correspondingly higher TCE rates. The Company sold two of its older Aframax
tankers during the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999 and added four newer Aframax
tankers (including three time-chartered-in vessels) to its fleet during the same
period. As a result, the Company's average fleet size increased by two vessels,
or 8.9%, in fiscal 1999 compared to fiscal 1998, following an earlier increase
of two vessels, or 4.9% in fiscal 1998.
Net voyage revenues increased 4.3% to $318.4 million in fiscal 1999 from
$305.3 million in fiscal 1998, reflecting the increase in the Company's fleet
size and higher TCE rates earned on the Australian Vessels, partially offset by
lower spot TCE rates. The Company's average overall TCE rate in fiscal 1999,
excluding the Australian Vessels, was down 8.4% to $19,576 from $21,373 in
fiscal 1998.
Vessel operating expenses increased 19.7% to $84.4 million in fiscal 1999
from $70.5 million in fiscal 1998, mainly as a result of higher crewing costs
associated with the Australian Vessels and an adjustment to crew wage rates and
salaries effective April 1, 1998.
Time-charter hire expense was $29.7 million in fiscal 1999, up from $10.6
million in fiscal 1998, as the average number of vessels time-chartered-in by
the Company increased to four in fiscal 1999 from two in fiscal 1998.
Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by 1.3% to $93.7 million in
fiscal 1999 from $94.9 million in fiscal 1998, primarily as a result of lower
amortization of drydocking costs during the current year due to fewer scheduled
drydockings compared to the previous fiscal year. Depreciation and amortization
expense included amortization of drydocking costs of $8.6 million and $11.7
million in fiscal years 1999 and 1998, respectively.
General and administrative expenses rose 16.1% to $25.0 million in fiscal
1999 from $21.5 million in fiscal 1998, primarily as a result of the hiring of
additional personnel in connection with the expansion of the Company's
operations, particularly in Australia. The fiscal 1999 results include the
Australian Vessels for the full year in comparison to three months in fiscal
1998 for three of the Australian Vessels.
Interest expense decreased by 20.4% to $44.8 million in fiscal 1999 from
$56.3 million in fiscal 1998, reflecting the reduction in the Company's total
debt and lower average interest rates on debt borrowings. In June 1998, the
Company completed a public offering of its Common Stock resulting in net
proceeds to the Company of approximately $69.0 million. These net proceeds,
together with other funds, were applied in August 1998 to redeem the Company's
outstanding 9 5/8% Notes.
Other income of $5.5 million in fiscal 1999 consisted primarily of $7.1
million in gains on the sale of two vessels, offset partially by $1.9 million in
income taxes related to the Australian Vessels. Other income of $11.2 million in
fiscal 1998 consisted primarily of gains on the sale of vessels.
As a result of the foregoing factors, net income was $45.4 million in fiscal
1999, compared to net income of $70.5 million in fiscal 1998. Net income for
fiscal 1999 included an extraordinary loss of $7.3 million arising from the
redemption of the 9 5/8% Notes and gains on asset sales of $7.1 million. Net
income for fiscal 1998 included $14.4 million in gains on asset sales.
The following table illustrates the relationship between fleet size
(measured in ship-days), TCE performance, and operating results per calendar
ship-day. To facilitate comparison to the prior years' results, unless otherwise
indicated, the figures in the table below exclude the results from the Company's
Australian Vessels.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's total liquidity, including cash, restricted cash, marketable
securities and undrawn long-term lines of credit, was $237.4 million as at
December 31, 1999, up from $143.3 million as at March 31, 1999, and $186.3
million as at March 31, 1998. The increase in liquidity during the nine month
period ended December 31, 1999 was primarily the result of drawing an additional
$100 million under one of the Company's revolving credit facilities.
Net cash flow from operating activities decreased to $51.5 million in the
nine month period ended December 31, 1999, compared to $137.7 million in the
year ended March 31, 1999, and $161.1 million in the year ended March 31, 1998.
This primarily reflects the change in TCE rates during these periods.
Scheduled debt repayments were $32.3 million during the nine month period
ended December 31, 1999, compared to $50.6 million in the year ended March 31,
1999 and $33.9 million in the year ended March 31, 1998.
Dividends declared during the nine month period ended December 31, 1999 were
$23.17 million, or $0.645 per share, of which $23.15 million was paid in cash
and the remainder was paid in the form of shares of Common Stock issued under
the Company's dividend reinvestment plan.
During the nine month period ended December 31, 1999, the Company incurred
capital expenditures for vessels and equipment of $23.3 million, consisting
mainly of payments made towards the two newbuilding double-hull Aframax tankers
delivered in July and September of 1999. Cash expenditures for drydocking were
$6.6 million in the nine month period ended December 31, 1999 compared to $11.7
million in the year ended March 31, 1999 and $18.4 million in the year ended
March 31, 1998. There were fewer scheduled drydockings than usual during the
nine month period ended December 31, 1999.
As part of its growth strategy, the Company will continue to consider
strategic opportunities, including the acquisition of additional vessels and
expansion into new markets. The Company may choose to pursue such opportunities
through internal growth, joint ventures, or business acquisitions. The Company
intends to finance any future acquisitions through various sources of capital,
including internally generated cash flow, existing credit lines, additional debt
borrowings, and the issuance of additional shares of capital stock.
Market Rate Risks
The Company is exposed to market risk from foreign currency and changes in
interest rate fluctuations. The Company uses interest rate swaps and forward
foreign currency contracts to manage these risks, but does not use financial
instruments for trading or speculative purposes.
Interest Rate Risk
The Company invests its cash and marketable securities in financial
instruments with maturities of less than three months within the parameters of
its investment policy and guidelines.
The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage the impact of interest rate
changes on earnings and cash flows. The differential to be paid or received
under these swap agreements is accrued as interest rates change and is
recognized as an adjustment to interest expense. Premiums and receipts, if any,
are recognized as adjustments to interest expense over the lives of the
individual contracts.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk
The international tanker industry's functional currency is the U.S. dollar.
Virtually all of the Company's revenues and most of its operating costs are in
U.S. dollars. The Company incurs certain operating expenses, drydocking, and
overhead costs in foreign currencies, the most significant of which are Japanese
yen, Singapore dollars, Canadian dollars, Australian dollars and Norwegian
kroner. During the nine months ended December 31, 1999, approximately 20.4% of
vessel and voyage costs, overhead and drydock expenditures were denominated in
these currencies. However, the Company has the ability to shift its purchase of
goods and services from one country to another and, thus, from one currency to
another, on relatively short notice.
The Company enters into forward contracts as a hedge against changes in
certain foreign exchange rates. Market value gains and losses are deferred and
recognized during the period in which the hedged transaction is recorded in the
accounts.

Year 2000 Compliance
The Company relies on computer systems, software, databases, third party
electronic data interchange interfaces and embedded processors to operate its
business. The Company successfully implemented a program to systematically
address the Year 2000 problem. The Company was Year 2000 compliant prior to the
rollover to the Year 2000. The Company will continue to monitor electronic date
recognition issues.

AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Shareholders of
TEEKAY SHIPPING CORPORATION
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Teekay
Shipping Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1999 and March 31,
1999, and the related consolidated statements of income and retained earnings
and cash flows for the nine month period ended December 31, 1999 and for the
years ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. Our audits also included the financial
schedule listed in the Index: Item 19(a). These financial statements and
schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Teekay Shipping
Corporation and subsidiaries as at December 31, 1999 and March 31, 1999, and the
consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the nine month
period ended December 31, 1999 and for the years ended March 31, 1999 and 1998,
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States. Also, in our opinion, the related schedule, when considered in relation
to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all
material aspects the information set forth therein.

TEEKAY SHIPPING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share
or per share data)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. They include the
accounts of Teekay Shipping Corporation ("Teekay"), which is incorporated under
the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and its wholly owned or
controlled subsidiaries (the "Company"). Significant intercompany items and
transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Certain of the comparative figures have been reclassified to conform with
the presentation adopted in the current period.
Reporting currency
The consolidated financial statements are stated in U.S. dollars because
the Company operates in international shipping markets which utilize the U.S.
dollar as the functional currency.
Change in fiscal year end
The Company changed its fiscal year end from March 31 to December 31,
effective December 31, 1999. The following is a summary of selected financial
information for the comparative twelve and nine month periods ended December 31,
1999 and 1998:

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share or
per share data)
Operating revenues and expenses
Voyage revenues and expenses are recognized on the percentage of completion
method of accounting. The Company has refined its estimation process from a
load-to-load basis to a discharge-to-discharge basis under the percentage of
completion method to more precisely reflect net voyage revenues. This refinement
in accounting estimate resulted in an increase in net voyage revenues of $5.7
million, or 16 cents per share, for the nine month period ended December 31,
1999.
Estimated losses on voyages are provided for in full at the time such losses
become evident. The consolidated balance sheets reflect the deferred portion of
revenues and expenses applicable to subsequent periods.
Voyage expenses comprise all expenses relating to particular voyages,
including bunker fuel expenses, port fees, canal tolls, and brokerage
commissions. Vessel operating expenses comprise all expenses relating to the
operation of vessels, including crewing, repairs and maintenance, insurance,
stores, lubes, communications, and miscellaneous expenses.
Marketable securities
The Company's investments in marketable securities are classified as
available-for-sale securities and are carried at fair value. Net unrealized
gains or losses on available-for-sale securities, if material, are reported as a
separate component of stockholders' equity.
Vessels and equipment
All pre-delivery costs incurred during the construction of newbuildings,
including interest costs, and supervision and technical costs are capitalized.
The acquisition cost and all costs incurred to restore used vessel purchases to
the standard required to properly service the Company's customers are
capitalized. Depreciation is calculated on a straight-line basis over a vessel's
useful life from the date a vessel is initially placed in service.
Effective April 1, 1999, the Company revised the estimated useful life of
its vessels from 20 years to 25 years, consistent with most other public tanker
companies. This change in accounting estimate resulted in a reduction of
depreciation expense of $22.5 million, or 62 cents per share, for the nine month
period ended December 31, 1999.
Interest costs capitalized to vessels and equipment for the nine month
period ended December 31, 1999 and the years ended March 31, 1999 and 1998
aggregated $1,710,000, $3,018,000, and $283,000, respectively.
Expenditures incurred during drydocking are capitalized and amortized on a
straight-line basis over the period until the next anticipated drydocking. When
significant drydocking expenditures recur prior to the expiry of this period,
the remaining balance of the original drydocking is expensed in the month of the
subsequent drydocking. Drydocking expenses amortized for the nine month period
ended December 31, 1999 and the years ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 aggregated
$6,275,000, $8,583,000, and $11,737,000, respectively.
Investment in joint ventures
The Company has a 50% participating interest in the joint venture
(Soponata-Teekay Limited). The joint venture is accounted for using the equity
method whereby the investment is carried at the Company's original cost plus its
proportionate share of undistributed earnings.
Investment in the Panamax OBO Pool
All oil/bulk/ore carriers ("OBO") owned by the Company are operated through
a Panamax OBO Pool. The participants in the Pool are the companies contributing
vessel capacity to the Pool. The voyage revenues and expenses of these vessels
have been included on a 100% basis in the consolidated financial statements. The
minority pool participants' share of the result has been deducted as time
charter hire expense.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Cont'd)
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share or
per share data)
Other assets
Loan costs, including fees, commissions and legal expenses, are capitalized
and amortized on a straight line basis over the term of the relevant loan.
Amortization of loan costs is included in interest expense.
Interest rate swap agreements
The differential to be paid or received, pursuant to interest rate swap
agreements, is accrued as interest rates change and is recognized as an
adjustment to interest expense. Premiums and receipts, if any, are recognized as
adjustments to interest expense over the lives of the individual contracts.
Forward contracts
The Company enters into forward contracts as a hedge against changes in
certain foreign exchange rates. Market value gains and losses are deferred and
recognized during the period in which the hedged transaction is recorded in the
accounts.
Cash and cash equivalents
The Company classifies all highly liquid investments with a maturity date of
three months or less when purchased as cash and cash equivalents.
Cash interest paid during the nine month period ended December 31, 1999 and
the years ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 totaled $63,086,000, $48,527,000, and
$55,141,000, respectively.
Income taxes
The legal jurisdictions of the countries in which Teekay and the majority of
its subsidiaries are incorporated do not impose income taxes upon
shipping-related activities. The Company's Australian ship-owning subsidiaries
are subject to income taxes (see Note 11). The Company accounts for such taxes
using the liability method pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No.
109, " Accounting for Income Taxes".
Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
Under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 ("SFAS 123"),
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", disclosures of stock-based
compensation arrangements with employees are required and companies are
encouraged (but not required) to record compensation costs associated with
employee stock option awards, based on estimated fair values at the grant dates.
The Company has chosen to continue to account for stock-based compensation using
the intrinsic value method prescribed in APB Opinion No. 25 ("APB 25")
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and has disclosed the required pro
forma effect on net income and earning per share as if the fair value method of
accounting as prescribed in SFAS 123 had been applied (see Note 9--Capital
Stock).
Comprehensive income
The Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130,
"Reporting Comprehensive Income", which establishes standards for reporting and
displaying comprehensive income and its components in the consolidated financial
statements. For the nine month period ended December 31, 1999, and the years
ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company did not have any components of
comprehensive income.

Recent accounting pronouncements
In June 1998, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", which
establishes new standards for recording derivatives in interim and annual
financial statements. This statement requires recording all derivative
instruments as assets or liabilities, measured at fair value. Statement No. 133,
as amended by FASB Statement No. 137, is effective for fiscal years beginning
after June 15, 2000. Management has not determined the impact, if any, that the
adoption of the new statement will have on the consolidated results of
operations or financial position of the Company.
2. Business Operations
The Company is engaged in the ocean transportation of petroleum cargoes
worldwide through the ownership and operation of a fleet of tankers. All of the
Company's revenues are earned in international markets.
One customer, an international oil company, accounted for 13% ($48,140,000)
of the Company's consolidated voyage revenues during the nine month period ended
December 31, 1999. No other customer accounted for more than 10% of the
Company's consolidated voyage revenues. During the year ended March 31, 1999,
three customers, all international oil companies, individually accounted for 12%
($51,411,000), 12% ($50,727,000) and 10% ($42,797,000), respectively, of the
Company's consolidated voyage revenues. During the year ended March 31, 1998, a
single customer, also an international oil company, accounted for 14%
($56,357,000) of the Company's consolidated voyage revenues.
3. Acquisition of Bona Shipholding Ltd.
On June 11, 1999, Teekay purchased Bona Shipholding Ltd. ("Bona") for
aggregate consideration (including estimated transaction expenses of $19.0
million) of $450.3 million, consisting of $39.9 million in cash, $294.0 million
of assumed debt (net of cash acquired of $91.7 million) and the balance of $97.4
million in shares of Teekay's Common Stock. Bona's operating results are
reflected in these financial statements commencing the effective date of the
acquisition.
The following table shows comparative summarized condensed pro forma
financial information for the nine month period ended December 31, 1999, and for

TEEKAY SHIPPING CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Cont'd)
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. dollars, other than share
or per share data)
The Company has two long-term Revolving Credit Facilities (the "Revolvers")
available, which, as at December 31, 1999, provided for borrowings of up to
$645.0 million. Interest payments are based on LIBOR (December 31, 1999: 6.0%;
March 31, 1999: 5.0%) plus a margin depending on the financial leverage of the
Company; at December 31, 1999, the margins ranged between 0.6% and 0.9% (March
31,1999: 0.5%). The amount available under the Revolvers reduces semi-annually
with final balloon reductions in 2006 and 2008. The Revolvers are collateralized
by first priority mortgages granted on forty of the Company's Aframax tankers
and oil/bulk/ore carriers, together with certain other related collateral, and a
guarantee from the Company for all amounts outstanding under the Revolvers.
The 8.32% First Preferred Ship Mortgage Notes due February 1, 2008 (the
"8.32% Notes") are collateralized by first preferred mortgages on seven of the
Company's Aframax tankers, together with certain other related collateral, and
are guaranteed by seven subsidiaries of Teekay that own the mortgaged vessels
(the "8.32% Notes Guarantor Subsidiaries") to a maximum of 95% of the fair value
of their net assets. As at December 31, 1999, the fair value of these net assets
approximated $182.0 million. The 8.32% Notes are also subject to a sinking fund,
which will retire $45.0 million principal amount of the 8.32% Notes on each
February 1, commencing 2004.
Upon the 8.32% Notes achieving Investment Grade Status and subject to
certain other conditions, the guarantees of the 8.32% Notes Guarantor
Subsidiaries will terminate, all of the collateral securing the obligations of
the Company and the 8.32% Notes Guarantor Subsidiaries under the Indenture and
the Security Documents will be released (whereupon the Notes will become general
unsecured obligations of the Company) and certain covenants under the Indenture
will no longer be applicable to the Company.
In August 1998, the Company redeemed the remaining $98.7 million of the 9
5/8% First Preferred Ship Mortgage Notes (the "9 5/8% Notes") which resulted in
an extraordinary loss of $7.3 million, or 24 cents per share, for the year ended
March 31, 1999.
The Company has several term loans outstanding, which, as at December 31,1999,
totalled $226.2 million. Interest payments are based on LIBOR plus a margin. At
December 31,1999, the margins ranged between 0.65% and 1.25%. The term loans
reduce in quarterly or semi-annual payments with varying maturities through
2009. All term loans of the Company are collateralized by first preferred
mortgages on the vessels to which the loans relate, together with certain other
collateral, and guarantees from Teekay.
As at December 31, 1999, the Company was committed to a series of interest
rate swap agreements whereby $200.0 million of the Company's floating rate debt
was swapped with fixed rate obligations having an average remaining term of 3.8
years, expiring between December 2001 and February 2005. These arrangements
effectively change the Company's interest rate exposure on $200.0 million of
debt from a floating LIBOR rate to an average fixed rate of 6.28%. The Company
is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counter parties
to the interest rate swap agreements; however, the Company does not anticipate
non-performance by any of the counter parties.
Among other matters, the long-term debt agreements generally provide for such
items as maintenance of certain vessel market value to loan ratios and minimum
consolidated financial covenants, prepayment privileges (in some cases with
penalties), and restrictions against the incurrence of additional debt and new
investments by the individual subsidiaries without prior lender consent. The
amount of Restricted Payments, as defined, that the Company can make, including
dividends and purchases of its own capital stock, is limited as of December 31,
1999, to $188.0 million. Certain of the loan agreements require a minimum level
of free cash be maintained. As at December 31, 1999, this amount was $26.0
million.
The aggregate annual long-term debt principal repayments required to be
made for the five fiscal years subsequent to December 31, 1999 are $66,557,000
(fiscal 2000), $92,196,000 (fiscal 2001), $90,043,000 (fiscal 2002),
$132,157,000 (fiscal 2003), and $114,078,000 (fiscal 2004).

7. Leases
Charters-out
Time charters to third parties of the Company's vessels are accounted for as
operating leases. The minimum future revenues to be received on time charters
currently in place are $82,204,000 (fiscal 2000), $72,158,000 (fiscal 2001),
$57,830,000 (fiscal 2002), $39,035,000 (fiscal 2003), $39,140,000 (fiscal 2004),
and $132,063,000 thereafter.
The minimum future revenues should not be construed to reflect total charter
hire revenues for any of the years.
Charters-in
Minimum commitments under vessel operating leases are $22,795,000 (fiscal
2000) and $2,981,000 (fiscal 2001).
8. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Carrying amounts of all financial instruments approximate fair market value
except for the following:
Long-term debt -- The fair values of the Company's fixed rate long-term debt
are based on either quoted market prices or estimated using discounted cash flow
analyses, based on rates currently available for debt with similar terms and
remaining maturities.
Interest rate swap agreements and foreign exchange contracts -- The fair
value of interest rate swaps and foreign exchange contracts, used for hedging
purposes, is the estimated amount that the Company would receive or pay to
terminate the agreements at the reporting date, taking into account current
interest rates, the current credit worthiness of the swap counter parties and
foreign exchange rates.
The estimated fair value of the Company's financial instruments is as
follows:

============= ==========
In June 1998, the Company sold 2,800,000 shares in a public offering. The
Company used the net proceeds from the offering of approximately $69.0 million,
together with other funds, to redeem the outstanding 9 5/8% Notes.
In September 1998, the Company's shareholders approved an amendment to the
Company's 1995 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") to increase the number of shares
of Common Stock reserved and available for future grants of options under the
Plan by an additional 1,800,000 shares. As of December 31, 1999, the Company had
reserved 3,642,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance upon exercise of options
granted pursuant to the Plan. During the nine month period ended December 31,
1999 and the years ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, the Company granted options
under the Plan to acquire up to 1,463,500, 573,000 and 359,750 shares of Common
Stock (the "Grants"), respectively, to certain eligible officers, employees
(including senior sea staff), and directors of the Company. The options have a
10-year term and vest equally over four years from the date of grant.

As the exercise price of the Company's employee stock options equals the
market price of underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense
is recognized under APB 25.
Had the Company recognized compensation costs for the Grants consistent with
the methods recommended by SFAS 123 (see Note 1--Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation), the Company's net income and earnings per share for the nine
