Risk Factor Summary
Risks Related to Our Industry
Changes in the oil markets could result in decreased demand for our vessels and services.
The cyclical nature of the tanker industry may lead to volatile changes in charter rates and significant fluctuations in the utilization of our vessels, which may adversely affect our earnings.
Changes in the spot tanker market may result in significant fluctuations in the utilization of our vessels and our profitability.
Our vessels operate in the highly competitive international tanker market.
High oil prices could negatively impact tanker freight rates.
Marine transportation is inherently risky, and an incident involving loss or damage to a vessel, significant loss of product or environmental contamination by any of our vessels could harm our reputation and business.
Terrorist attacks, increased hostilities, political change, or war could lead to further economic instability, increased costs and business disruption.
Acts of piracy on ocean-going vessels continue to be a risk, which could adversely affect our business.
6

Public health threats, including pandemics, epidemics, and other public health crises, could have adverse effects on our operations and financial results.
Governments could requisition our vessels during a period of war or emergency.
Risks Related to Our Business
Economic downturns, including disruptions in the global credit markets, could adversely affect our ability to grow.
Economic downturns may affect our customers’ ability to charter our vessels and pay for our services and may adversely affect our business and results of operations.
We may not be able to grow or to manage our growth effectively.
An increase in operating costs, due to increased inflation or otherwise, could adversely affect our cash flows and financial condition.
The timing of dry dockings of our vessels during peak market conditions could adversely affect our profitability.
Delays in the delivery of and installation of new vessel equipment could result in significant vessel downtime and have adverse impacts on our results of operations.
Technological innovation could reduce our charter hire income and the value and operational lives of our vessels.
Over time, the value of our vessels may decline, which could adversely affect our existing loans and obligations related to finance leases, our ability to obtain new financing, or our operating results.
We depend on the ability of our subsidiaries to distribute funds to us in order to satisfy our financial obligations and to make any dividend payments or share repurchases.
Financing agreements containing operating and financial restrictions may restrict our business and financing activities.
We may be required to make substantial capital expenditures should we decide to expand the size of our fleet, involving significant installment payments. Our financial leverage could increase or our shareholders’ ownership interest in us could be diluted.
Teekay Tankers' obligations related to finance leases and revolving credit facility may limit our flexibility in obtaining additional financing, pursuing other business opportunities, paying dividends, repurchasing shares and may incur additional debt and obligations in the future.
Our ability to repay or refinance debt and lease obligations and to fund our capital expenditures will depend on certain financial, business and other factors. To the extent we are able to finance these obligations and expenditures, our ability to pay cash dividends and repurchase shares may be diminished or our financial leverage may increase, or our shareholders may be diluted.
Many of our seafaring employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements and the failure to renew those agreements or any future labor agreements may disrupt operations and adversely affect our cash flows.
We may be unable to attract and retain qualified, skilled employees or crew necessary to operate our business, and the cost of attracting and retaining such personnel may increase.
We anticipate that Teekay Tankers may need to accelerate its fleet renewal in coming years, the success of any such program will depend on newbuilding and second-hand vessel availability and prices, market conditions and available financing, and which may require significant expenditures.
Increased demand for and supply of vessels fitted with scrubbers to comply with IMO sulfur reduction requirements could reduce demand for our existing vessels and impair our ability to time charter-out our vessels at competitive rates.
Our insurance may be insufficient to cover losses that may occur to our property or result from our operations.
Maritime claimants could arrest, or port authorities could detain, our vessels, which could interrupt our cash flow.
Exposure to interest rate fluctuations will result in fluctuations in our cash flows and operating results.
Our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are exposed to credit risk, which may be adversely affected by market conditions, interest rates and failures of financial institutions.
We may be unable to take advantage of favorable opportunities in the spot market to the extent any of our vessels are employed on medium to long-term time charters.
Teekay Tankers’ U.S. Gulf lightering business competes with alternative methods of delivering crude oil to ports and exports to offshore for consolidation onto larger vessels, which may limit our earnings in this market.
Teekay Tankers’ full service lightering (or FSL) operations are subject to specific risks that could lead to accidents, oil spills or property damage.
Our and many of our customers’ substantial operations outside the United States (or U.S.) expose us and them to political, governmental and economic instability, which could harm our operations.
Exposure to currency exchange rate fluctuations could result in fluctuations in our cash flows and operating results.
Our operating results are subject to seasonal fluctuations.
Our failure to renew or replace fixed-rate charters could cause us to trade the related vessels in the spot market, which could adversely affect our operating results and make them more volatile.
Changes in market conditions may limit our access to capital and our growth.
7

We have recognized asset impairments in the past and we may recognize additional impairments in the future.
The loss of any key customer or its inability to pay for our services could result in a significant loss of revenue in a given period.
We may be unable to make or realize benefits from investments or acquisitions, and growth through any such transaction may harm our financial condition and performance.
Legal and Regulatory Risks
We are bound to adhere to sanctions from many jurisdictions, including the United States, United Kingdom, European Union, and Canada, due to our domicile and location of offices.
Past port calls by our vessels or third-party vessels participating in Revenue Sharing Agreements (or RSAs) to countries that are subject to sanctions imposed by the United States, European Union and the United Kingdom could harm our business.
Failure to comply with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the UK Bribery Act, the UK Criminal Finances Act, the UK Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act and similar laws in other jurisdictions could result in fines, criminal penalties, contract terminations and an adverse effect on our business.
The shipping industry is subject to substantial environmental and other regulations, which may significantly limit operations and increase expenses and adversely impact insurance coverage.
Climate change and greenhouse gas restrictions may adversely impact our operations and markets.
Increasing scrutiny and changing expectations from certain investors, lenders, customers and other market participants with respect to ESG policies and practices may impose additional costs on us or expose us to additional risks.
Our operations may be subject to economic substance requirements in the Marshall Islands and other offshore jurisdictions, which could impact our business.
Regulations relating to ballast water discharge may adversely affect our operational results and financial condition.
The smuggling of drugs or other contraband onto our vessels may lead to governmental claims against us.
Information and Technology Risks
A cyber-attack could materially disrupt our business.
We rely on our information systems to conduct our business, and failure to protect these systems against viruses and security breaches could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Additionally, if these systems fail or become unavailable for any significant period of time, our business could be harmed.
Our failure to comply with data privacy laws could damage our customer relationships and expose us to litigation risks and potential fines.
Risks Related to an Investment in Our Securities
Because we are incorporated in the Marshall Islands, shareholders may have fewer rights and protections under Marshall Islands law than under a typical jurisdiction in the United States.
Because we are organized under the laws of the Marshall Islands, it may be difficult to serve us with legal process or enforce judgments against us, our directors or our management.
Tax Risks
U.S. tax authorities could treat us as a “passive foreign investment company”, which could have adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to our U.S. shareholders and other adverse consequences to us and all of our shareholders.
We are subject to taxes. The imposition of taxes, including as a result of a change in tax law or accounting requirements, may reduce our cash available for distribution to shareholders, cash flows and results of operations.
Risks Related to Our Industry
Changes in the oil markets could result in decreased demand for our vessels and services.

Demand for our vessels and services in transporting oil depends upon world and regional oil markets. Any decrease in shipments of crude oil in those markets could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Historically, those markets have been volatile as a result of the many conditions and events that affect the price, production and transport of oil, including competition from alternative energy sources. Past slowdowns of the U.S. and world economies have resulted in reduced consumption of oil products and decreased demand for our vessels and services, which reduced vessel earnings. Additional slowdowns could have similar effects on our operating results and may limit our ability to expand or renew our fleet.

8

The cyclical nature of the tanker industry may lead to volatile changes in charter rates and significant fluctuations in the utilization of our vessels, which may adversely affect our earnings.

Historically, the tanker industry has been cyclical, experiencing volatility in profitability due to changes in the supply of and demand for tanker capacity and changes in the supply of and demand for oil and oil products. The cyclical nature of the tanker industry may cause significant increases or decreases in the revenues we earn from our vessels and may also cause significant increases or decreases in the value of our vessels. If the tanker market is depressed, our earnings may decrease. Our exposure to industry business cycles is more acute because of our exposure to the spot tanker market, which is more volatile than the tanker industry generally. Our ability to operate profitably in the spot market and to recharter our other vessels upon the expiration or termination of their charters will depend upon, among other factors, the economic conditions in the tanker market.

The factors affecting the supply of and demand for tankers are outside of our control, and the nature, timing and degree of changes in industry conditions are unpredictable.

Key factors that influence the supply of tanker capacity include:

environmental concerns and regulations;
the number of newbuilding deliveries;
the scrapping rate of older vessels;
conversion of tankers to other uses; and
the number of vessels that are out of service.

Key factors that influence demand for tanker capacity include:

supply of oil and oil products;
demand for oil and oil products;
regional availability of refining capacity;
global and regional economic and political conditions;
the distance oil and oil products are to be moved by sea;
demand for floating storage of oil;
changes in seaborne and other transportation patterns;
weather and natural disasters;
competition from alternative sources of energy; and
international sanctions, embargoes, import and export restrictions, nationalizations and wars.

Historically, the tanker markets have been volatile as a result of the many conditions and factors that can affect the price and the supply of, and demand for, tanker capacity. Changes in demand for transportation of oil over longer distances and in the supply of tankers to carry that oil may materially affect our revenues, profitability and cash flows. Following our sale in January 2022 of the Teekay Gas Business, which operated primarily under long-term, fixed-rate charter contracts, our revenues are more volatile and dependent on revenues generated by our tanker fleet.

The conflict in Ukraine and the consequent sanctions imposed on Russia have significantly increased tanker demand and rates by reshaping global oil trading patterns, including the rerouting of Russian oil exports away from Europe and the subsequent backfilling of imports into Europe from other more distant sources. Changes in or resolution of the conflict in Ukraine and the lifting of those sanctions may lead to a reversal of these trading patterns or other effects that could significantly decrease tanker demand and rates.

Although the Hamas-Israel war so far has not had a direct material effect on the tanker industry, war, terrorism and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East could have material adverse effects. Since mid-December 2023, Houthi rebels in Yemen have carried out numerous attacks on vessels in the Red Sea area. As a result of these attacks, many shipping companies have routed their vessels away from the Red Sea, which has affected trading patterns, rates and expenses. Further escalation, or expansion of hostilities relating to the Israel-Hamas war could continue to affect the price of crude oil and the oil industry, the tanker industry, demand for or services, and our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Changes in the spot tanker market may result in significant fluctuations in the utilization of our vessels and our profitability.

During 2023 and 2022, we derived approximately 93% and 89%, respectively, of our consolidated revenues from continuing operations in Teekay Tankers. These revenues earned are primarily from vessels operating in the spot tanker market, either directly or by means of participation in RSAs (which includes vessels operating under full service lightering (or FSL) contracts and charters with an initial term of less than one year). Due to our involvement in the spot-charter market, declining spot rates in a given period generally will result in corresponding declines in our operating results for that period.

The spot-charter market is highly volatile and fluctuates based upon tanker and oil supply and demand. The successful operation of our vessels in the spot-charter market depends upon, among other things, obtaining profitable spot charters and minimizing, to the extent possible, time spent waiting for charters and time spent traveling unladen to load cargo. Future spot rates may not be sufficient to enable our vessels trading in the spot tanker market to operate profitably or to provide sufficient cash flow to service our debt and obligations related to finance leases.

In addition, as charter rates for spot charters are fixed for a single voyage that may last up to several weeks, during periods in which spot charter rates are rising, we will generally experience delays in realizing the benefits from such increases.
9


In addition, the impact of changes in the spot tanker market may be further impacted by our tankers participating in RSAs as an RSA may include vessels of third-party owners that do not perform as well as our vessels. As a result, we may earn less net revenue than we could by operating our vessels independently. For further information about the RSAs, please read "Item 4 – Information on the Company: B. Business Overview – Revenue Sharing Agreements".

Our vessels operate in the highly competitive international tanker market.

The operation of oil tankers and transportation of crude oil and refined petroleum products are extremely competitive businesses. Competition arises primarily from other tanker owners, including major oil companies and independent tanker companies, some of which have substantially greater financial strength and capital than us. Competition for the transportation of oil and oil products can be intense and depends on price and the location, size, age, and condition of the tanker and the acceptability of the tanker and its operators to the charterers. Our competitive position may erode over time. In addition, we may not be able to compete profitably to the extent we seek to expand our business into new geographic regions. New markets may require different skills, knowledge, or strategies than those we use in our current markets, and the competitors in those new markets may have greater financial strength and capital resources than we do.

High oil prices could negatively impact tanker freight rates.

High oil prices could negatively impact tanker freight rates due to reduced oil demand and weaker refining margins. In addition, fuel, or bunkers, is a significant operating expense for our vessels employed in the spot market and can have a significant impact on earnings. For any vessels which may be employed on time charters, the charterer is generally responsible for the cost and supply of fuel; however, such cost may affect the time charter rates we may be able to negotiate for such vessels. Changes in the price of fuel may adversely affect our profitability. The price and supply of fuel is unpredictable and fluctuates based on events outside our control, including, among other factors, geopolitical developments, supply and demand for oil and gas, actions by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (or OPEC) and other oil and gas producers, war and unrest in oil producing countries and regions, regional production patterns and environmental concerns.
Marine transportation is inherently risky, and an incident involving loss or damage to a vessel, significant loss of product or environmental contamination by any of our vessels could harm our reputation and business.
Our vessels, crew and cargoes are at risk of being damaged, injured or lost because of events such as:

marine disasters;
bad weather or natural disasters;
mechanical or electrical failures;
grounding, capsizing, fire, explosions and collisions;
piracy (hijackings and kidnappings);
cyber-attacks;
acute-onset illness in connection with global or regional pandemics or similar public health crises;
mental health of crew members;
human error; and
war and terrorism.

An accident involving any of our vessels could result in any of the following:

significant litigation with our customers or other third parties;
death or injury to persons, loss of property or damage to the environment and natural resources;
delays in the delivery of cargo;
liabilities or costs to recover any spilled oil or other petroleum products and to restore the environment affected by the spill;
loss of revenues from charters;
governmental fines, penalties, or restrictions on conducting business;
higher insurance rates; and
damage to our reputation and customer relationships generally.

Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and operating results, and the associated costs could exceed our insurance coverage.

If our vessels suffer damage, they may need to be repaired at a drydocking facility. The costs of dry-dock repairs are unpredictable and may be substantial. We may have to pay drydocking costs if our insurance does not cover them in full. The total loss of any of our vessels could harm our reputation as a safe and reliable vessel owner and operator. If we are unable to adequately maintain or safeguard our vessels, we may be unable to prevent any such damage, costs or loss, which could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, any damage to, or environmental contamination involving, oil production facilities serviced by our vessels could result in the suspension or curtailment of operations by our customers, which would, in turn, result in loss of revenues.

10

Terrorist attacks, increased hostilities, political change, or war could lead to further economic instability, increased costs, and business disruption.

Terrorist attacks, and current or future conflicts in Ukraine, the Middle East, the Red Sea, Libya, East Asia, Southeast Asia, West Africa and elsewhere, and political change, may adversely affect the tanker industry and our business, operating results, financial condition, and ability to raise capital and fund future growth. Recent hostilities in Ukraine, the Middle East (including the Israel-Hamas war) and elsewhere may lead to additional armed conflicts or to further acts of terrorism and civil disturbance in the U.S. or elsewhere, which may contribute further to economic instability and disruption of oil production and distribution, which could result in reduced demand for our services and have an adverse impact on our operations and our ability to conduct business.

Furthermore, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, in addition to sanctions announced by several world leaders and nations against Russia and any further sanctions, may also adversely impact our business given Russia’s role as a major global exporter of crude oil. Our business could be harmed by trade tariffs, trade embargoes or other economic sanctions by the U.S., the European Union or other countries against Russia, companies with Russian connections or the Russian energy sector and harmed by any retaliatory measures by Russia or other countries in response. While much uncertainty remains regarding the global impact of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, it is possible that such tensions could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operation and cash flows. In addition, it is possible that third parties with which we have charter contracts may be impacted by events in Russia, Ukraine, or the Middle East, which could adversely affect our operations and financial condition.

In addition, oil facilities, shipyards, vessels, pipelines, oil fields or other infrastructure could be targets of terrorist attacks or warlike operations and our vessels could be targets of hijackers, terrorists, or warlike operations. For example, the conflict in Ukraine has resulted in missile attacks on commercial vessels in the Black Sea, and since mid-December 2023, Houthi rebels in Yemen have carried out numerous attacks on vessels in the Red Sea area resulting in many shipping companies routing their vessels away from the Red Sea, which has affected trading patterns, rates, and expenses. Any such attacks could lead to, among other things, bodily injury or loss of life, vessel or other property damage, increased vessel operational costs, including insurance costs, and the inability to transport oil to or from certain locations. Terrorist attacks, war, hijacking, or other events beyond our control that adversely affect the distribution, production or transportation of oil to be shipped by us could entitle customers to terminate charters which would harm our cash flow and business.

Acts of piracy on ocean-going vessels continue to be a risk, which could adversely affect our business.

Acts of piracy have historically affected ocean-going vessels trading in regions of the world such as the South China Sea, Gulf of Guinea, and the Indian Ocean off the coast of Somalia. While there continues to be a significant risk of piracy incidents in the Gulf of Guinea, there have been increases in the frequency and severity of unmanned aerial vehicle and missile attacks in the southern Red Sea. There has also been an escalation in the Straits of Malacca and Singapore in the number of piracy incidents year on year. In addition, the threat of armed robbery and theft continues to exist to varying degrees in certain ports of South America, the Gulf of Mexico as well as in the Sulu & Celebes Seas. If these piracy attacks result in regions in which our vessels are deployed being named on the Joint War Committee Listed Areas, war risk insurance premiums payable for such coverage may increase significantly and such insurance coverage may be more difficult to obtain. In addition, crew costs, including costs which are incurred to the extent we employ onboard security guards and escort vessels, could increase in such circumstances. We may not be adequately insured to cover losses from these incidents, which could have a material adverse effect on us. In addition, detention or hijacking as a result of an act of piracy or other attacks against our vessels, or an increase in cost or unavailability of insurance for our vessels, could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Public health threats, including pandemics, epidemics, and other public health crises, could have an adverse effect on our operations and financial results.

Public health threats and highly communicable diseases, such as COVID-19, could adversely affect our operations, the operations of our customers or suppliers and the global economy. In response to a pandemic or epidemic, countries, ports, and organizations, including those where we conduct a large part of our operations, could implement measures to combat such outbreaks, such as quarantines and travel restrictions. Such measures could cause severe trade disruptions. In addition, pandemics, epidemics, and other public health crises may result in a significant decline in global demand for crude oil and refined petroleum products, as was the case during COVID-19. As our business is the transportation of crude oil and refined oil products on behalf of oil majors, oil traders and other customers, any significant decrease in demand for the cargo we transport could adversely affect demand for our vessels and services. The extent to which any pandemic, epidemic or any other public health crises may impact our business, results of operations and financial condition, including possible impairments, will depend on future developments, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted.

Governments could requisition our vessels during a period of war or emergency, which may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

A government could requisition for title or seize our vessels. Requisition for title occurs when a government takes control of a vessel and becomes the owner. Also, a government could requisition our vessels for hire. Requisition for hire occurs when a government takes control of a vessel and effectively becomes the charterer at dictated charter rates. Generally, requisitions occur during a period of war or emergency. Government requisition of one or more of our vessels could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Risks Related to Our Business

Economic downturns, including disruptions in the global credit markets, could adversely affect our ability to grow.

Economic downturns, bank failures and financial crises in the global markets could produce illiquidity in the capital markets, market volatility, heightened exposure to interest rate and credit risks, and reduced access to capital markets. If global financial markets and economic conditions deteriorate in the future, we may face restricted access to the capital markets or bank lending, which may make it more difficult and costly to fund future growth. Decreased access to such resources could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Global financial markets and economic conditions have been, and continue to be, volatile. Global economic growth weakened during 2023, due in part to inflationary pressures and higher interest rates. Growth in 2024 is expected to remain below long-term average levels.

Economic downturns may affect our customers’ ability to charter our vessels and pay for our services and may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Economic downturns in the global financial markets or economy generally may lead to a decline in our customers’ operations or ability to pay for our services, which could result in decreased demand for our vessels and services. Our customers’ inability to pay could also result in their default on our current contracts and charters. A decline in the amount of services requested by our customers or their default on our contracts with them could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may not be able to grow or to manage our growth effectively.

Our future growth will depend upon a number of factors, some of which are beyond our control. These factors include our ability to:

identify suitable tankers or shipping companies for acquisitions or joint ventures;
successfully integrate any acquired tankers or businesses with our existing operations; and
obtain required financing for our existing and any new operations.

In addition, competition from other companies, many of which have significantly greater financial resources than we do, may reduce our acquisition opportunities or cause us to pay higher prices. Our failure to effectively identify, purchase, develop and integrate any tankers or businesses could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Furthermore, any acquisition of a vessel or business may not be profitable at or after the time of acquisition and may not generate cash flows sufficient to justify the investment. Tanker asset values have increased significantly since 2022, and as of early 2024 are approaching all-time highs on a non-inflation adjusted basis. In addition, acquisitions expose us to risks that may harm our business, financial condition, and operating results.

To the extent we acquire existing vessels, they typically do not carry warranties as to their condition, unlike newbuilding vessels. While we generally inspect existing vessels prior to purchase, such an inspection would normally not provide us with as much knowledge of a vessel’s condition as we would possess if it had been built for us and operated by us during its life. Repair and maintenance costs for existing vessels are difficult to predict and may be substantially higher than for vessels we have operated since they were built. These costs could decrease our cash flows and liquidity and harm our financial condition and performance.
An increase in operating costs, due to increased inflation or otherwise, could adversely affect our cash flows and financial condition.

Our levels of vessel operating expenses depend upon a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control, such as competition for crew and inflation. Inflation has increased significantly on a worldwide basis since mid-2021, with many countries facing their highest inflation rates in decades. Inflation has increased our vessel operating expenses, voyage expenses and certain other expenses. To the extent our charter rates do not cover increased vessel operating expenses or voyage expenses for which we are responsible, or if other costs and expenses increase, our earnings would decrease and our cash flows and financial condition would be adversely affected.

The timing of dry dockings of our vessels during peak market conditions could adversely affect our profitability.

We periodically dry dock each of our vessels for inspection, repairs and maintenance and any modifications to comply with industry certification or governmental requirements. Generally, each vessel is dry docked every two and a half years to five years depending on the age of the vessel. Depending on the type of dry docking required, a vessel will incur a number of days of downtime when it will not be in service. During times of favorable market conditions, any increase in the number of required dry dockings in a given timeframe and the lost revenue days arising from this downtime could result in a material loss of earnings.

Delays in the delivery of and installation of new vessel equipment could result in significant vessel downtime and have adverse impacts on our results of operations.

In order to maximize fleet performance and efficiency, we plan to invest from time to time in new technologies to be installed on our fleet. However, the delivery and installation of any new equipment depends on a number of factors, some of which are within our control, such as the location of the vessels on a given date, and other factors which are outside of our control, such as the delivery due date, the availability of qualified personnel to install new equipment and potential bottlenecks in the supply chain. Depending on the type of new equipment to be installed, we may need to co-ordinate delivery and installation in line with vessel dry dockings. Any delays in the delivery or installation of new equipment could result in an increase in the number of dry docking days and adversely impact our results of operation.

Technological innovation could reduce our charter hire income and the value and operational lives of our vessels.

The charter hire rates and the value and operational life of a vessel are determined by a number of factors, including the vessel’s efficiency, operational flexibility and physical life. Efficiency includes speed, fuel economy and the ability to load and discharge cargo quickly. Flexibility includes the ability to enter various harbors and ports, utilize related docking facilities and pass through canals and straits. The length of a vessel’s physical life is related to its original design and construction, its maintenance and the impact of the stress of operations. If new tankers are built that are more efficient or more flexible or have longer physical lives than our vessels, competition from these more technologically-advanced vessels could adversely affect the amount of charter hire payments, if any, we receive for our vessels and the resale value of our vessels could significantly decrease. As a result, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Over time, the value of our vessels may decline, which could adversely affect our existing loans and obligations related to finance leases, our ability to obtain new financing, or our operating results.

Vessel values for oil tankers can fluctuate substantially over time due to a number of different factors. Vessel values may decline from existing levels. If the operation of a tanker is not profitable, rather than continue to incur costs to maintain and finance the vessel, we may seek to dispose of it. Our inability to dispose of the vessel at a fair market value or the disposition of the vessel at a fair market value that is lower than its book value could result in a loss on its sale and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. In addition, vessel value declines may result in impairment charges against our earnings. As of December 31, 2023, Teekay Tankers’ revolving credit facility and its obligations related to finance leases contained loan-to-value financial covenants tied to the value of the vessels that collateralize the credit facility and finance leases. Teekay Tankers is required to maintain vessel value to outstanding loan and lease principal balance ratios ranging from 100%-125%. As at December 31, 2023, Teekay Tankers was in compliance with these requirements. However, a decline in the market value of these tankers may result in a default of the applicable financing arrangement or may require Teekay Tankers to prepay portions of the outstanding principal or pledge additional collateral to avoid a default. If Teekay Tankers is unable to cure any such breach within the prescribed cure period in a particular financing facility, the relevant financiers could accelerate Teekay Tankers' debt or obligations under finance leases and foreclose on its vessels and other assets pledged as collateral or require an early termination of the credit facility or finance lease. In certain circumstances, such a breach could result in cross-defaults under Teekay Tankers’ other financing agreements. In addition, a significant decline in the market value of our tankers may prevent us from refinancing tankers with a similar amount of debt or obtaining additional debt using the tankers as collateral, thereby requiring us to either reduce debt levels in facilities collateralized by the tankers or seek alternative financing structures.

In addition, if we determine at any time that a vessel’s future useful life and earnings require us to impair its value on our consolidated financial statements, we may need to recognize a significant charge against our earnings.

We depend on the ability of our subsidiaries to distribute funds to us in order to satisfy our financial obligations and to make any dividend payments or repurchase shares.

Our subsidiaries, which are all directly and indirectly wholly owned by us, own all of our substantive operating assets. As a result, our ability to satisfy our financial obligations and to pay any dividends to, or repurchase shares from, our shareholders depends on the ability of our subsidiaries to generate profits available for distribution to us and our subsidiaries being permitted by law and contract to make such distributions to us; to the extent that they are unable to generate or distribute profits to us, we may be unable to pay our creditors or any dividends to, or repurchase shares from, our shareholders.

Financing agreements containing operating and financial restrictions may restrict our business and financing activities.

The operating and financial restrictions and covenants in our revolving credit facility, finance leases and in any of our future financing agreements could adversely affect our ability to finance future operations or capital needs or to pursue and expand our business activities. For example, these financing arrangements restrict our ability to:

incur additional indebtedness and guarantee indebtedness;
pay dividends or make other distributions or repurchase or redeem our capital stock;
prepay, redeem or repurchase certain debt;
issue certain preferred shares or similar equity securities;
make loans and investments;
enter into a new line of business;
incur or permit certain liens to exist;
enter into transactions with affiliates;
create unrestricted subsidiaries;
transfer, sell, convey or otherwise dispose of assets;
make certain acquisitions and investments;
enter into agreements restricting our subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and
consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of our assets.

13

In addition, certain of our debt agreements and finance leases require us to comply with certain financial covenants. Our ability to comply with covenants and restrictions contained in debt instruments and finance leases may be affected by events beyond our control, including prevailing economic, financial and industry conditions. If any such event were to occur, we may fail to comply with these covenants. If we breach any of the restrictions, covenants, ratios or tests in our financing agreements and we are unable to cure such breach within the prescribed cure period, our obligations may, at the election of the relevant lender, become immediately due and payable, and the lenders’ commitment under our credit facilities, if any, to make further loans available to us may terminate. In certain circumstances, this could lead to cross-defaults under our other financing agreements which in turn could result in obligations becoming due and commitments being terminated under such agreements. A default under our financing agreements could also result in foreclosure on any of our vessels and other assets securing related loans and finance leases or our need to sell assets or take other actions in order to meet our debt and obligations related to finance leases.

Furthermore, the termination of any of our charter contracts by our customers could result in the repayment of the debt facilities or finance leases to which the chartered vessels relate.
We may be required to make substantial capital expenditures should we decide to expand the size of our fleet. We generally will be required to make significant installment payments for any acquisitions of newbuilding vessels prior to their delivery and generation of revenue. Depending on whether we finance our expenditures through cash from operations or by issuing debt or equity securities, our financial leverage could increase or our shareholders’ ownership interests in us could be diluted.

We will be required to make substantial capital expenditures should we decide to increase the size of our fleet, including acquiring tankers from third parties. Our acquisitions may also include newbuildings. We generally will be required to make installment payments on any newbuildings prior to their delivery. We typically pay 10% to 20% of the purchase price of a newbuilding tanker upon signing the purchase contract, even though delivery of the completed vessel does not occur until much later (approximately two to three years from the order). To fund expansion capital expenditures, we may be required to use cash balances or cash from operations, incur borrowings or raise capital through the incurrence of debt or issuance of additional equity securities. Our ability to obtain bank financing or to access the capital markets for future offerings may be limited by our financial condition at the time of any such financing or offering, as well as by adverse market conditions resulting from, among other things, general economic conditions and contingencies and uncertainties that are beyond our control. Our failure to obtain funds for capital expenditures could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Even if we are successful in obtaining the necessary funds, incurring additional debt may significantly increase our interest expense and financial leverage, which could limit our financial flexibility and ability to pursue other business opportunities. In addition, issuing additional equity securities may result in significant shareholder ownership dilution.

Teekay Tankers has obligations related to finance leases and a revolving credit facility and may incur additional debt and finance lease obligations in the future.

As of December 31, 2023, Teekay Tankers had no outstanding long-term debt and $321.8 million was available to it under its revolving credit facility. In addition, Teekay Tankers' obligations related to finance leases were approximately $140.8 million as of December 31, 2023. We will continue to have the ability to incur additional debt, subject to limitations in Teekay Tankers’ revolving credit facility. Our level of debt could have important consequences to us, including the following:

our ability to obtain additional financing, if necessary, for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other purposes may be impaired, or such financing may not be available on favorable terms, if at all;
we will need a portion of our cash flow to make principal and interest payments on our debt and lease payments on our obligations related to finance leases, reducing the funds that would otherwise be available for operations, business opportunities, share repurchases and dividends to our shareholders;
incurring additional debt and finance lease obligations in the future may makes us more vulnerable than our competitors with less debt to competitive pressures or a downturn in our industry or the economy generally; and
incurring additional debt and finance lease obligations in the future may limit our flexibility in responding to changing business and economic conditions.

Our ability to service our debt and obligations related to finance leases depends upon, among other things, our financial and operating performance, which is affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. If our operating results are not sufficient to service our current or future indebtedness and obligations related to finance leases, we will be forced to take actions such as reducing or delaying our business activities, acquisitions, investments, or capital expenditures, selling assets, restructuring or refinancing our debt, or seeking additional equity capital or bankruptcy protection. We may not be able to effect any of these remedies on satisfactory terms, or at all.

Our ability to repay or refinance debt and lease obligations and to fund capital expenditures will depend on certain financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. To the extent we are able to finance these obligations and expenditures, our ability to pay any cash dividends and repurchase shares may be diminished, or our financial leverage may increase, or our shareholders may be diluted.

To fund existing and future debt and lease obligations and capital expenditures, we may be required to use our existing liquidity or cash from operations, incur borrowings, raise capital through the sale of assets or ownership interests in certain assets or our joint venture entity, issue debt or additional equity securities and/or seek to access other financing sources. Our access to potential funding sources and our future financial and operating performance will be affected by prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.

If we are unable to access additional financing and generate sufficient cash flow to meet our debt, lease, capital expenditure and other business requirements, we may be forced to take actions such as:

• restructuring our debt;
• selling additional assets or equity interests in certain assets or our joint venture;
14

• not paying dividends or repurchasing shares;
• reducing, delaying, or canceling business activities, acquisitions, investments or capital expenditures; or
• seeking bankruptcy protection.

Such measures might not be successful, and additional debt or equity capital may not be available on acceptable terms or enable us to meet our debt, lease, capital expenditure and other obligations. Some of such measures may adversely affect our business and reputation. In addition, financing agreements may restrict our ability to implement some of these measures.

Use of cash from operations for capital purposes will reduce cash available for any future dividends to shareholders. Our ability to obtain bank financing or to access the capital markets for any future offerings may be limited by our financial condition at the time of any such financing as well as by adverse market conditions in general. Even if we are successful in obtaining necessary funds, the terms of such financing could limit our ability to pay any future cash dividends to shareholders, repurchase shares or to operate our businesses as currently conducted. In addition, incurring debt may significantly increase interest expense and financial leverage, and issuing additional equity securities may result in significant shareholder dilution. The sale of certain assets would reduce cash from operations and the cash available for distribution to shareholders. For more information on our liquidity requirements, please read “Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 20a – Commitments and Contingencies – Liquidity".

Many of our seafaring employees are covered by collective bargaining agreements and the failure to renew those agreements or any future labor agreements may disrupt operations and adversely affect our cash flows.

A significant portion of our seafarers are employed under collective bargaining agreements. We may become subject to additional labor agreements in the future. We may suffer labor disruptions if relationships deteriorate with the seafarers or the unions that represent them. Our collective bargaining agreements may not prevent labor disruptions, particularly when the agreements are being renegotiated. Salaries are typically renegotiated annually or bi-annually for seafarers and annually for onshore operational staff and may increase our cost of operation. Any labor disruptions could harm our operations and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

We may be unable to attract and retain qualified, skilled employees or crew necessary to operate our business, and the cost of attracting and retaining such personnel may increase.

Our success depends on our ability to attract and retain highly skilled and qualified personnel. In crewing our vessels, we require technically skilled employees with specialized training who can perform physically demanding work. Competition to attract and retain qualified crew members is intense. The shipping industry continues to forecast a shortfall in qualified personnel, and crew and other compensation has increased recently and may continue to increase in the future. If crew costs increase and we are not able to increase our rates to compensate for any such increases, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.  Any inability we experience in the future to hire, train and retain a sufficient number of qualified employees or crew could impair our ability to manage, maintain and grow our business.

We anticipate that Teekay Tankers may need to accelerate its fleet renewal in coming years, the success of any such program which will depend on newbuilding and second-hand vessel availability and prices, market conditions and available financing, and which may require significant expenditures.

As approximately 50% of Teekay Tankers' fleet is currently aged 15 years and older, we anticipate Teekay Tankers may need to accelerate its fleet renewal in coming years. Teekay Tankers' ability to successfully execute a renewal program will depend on the availability and prices of newbuilding and second-hand vessels, market conditions and charter rates (primarily spot tanker rates), and access to sufficient financing at acceptable rates. The cost of newbuilding or second-hand vessels will be significant, which could affect our consolidated financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. Failure to execute a timely renewal program may adversely impact our and Teekay Tankers' business and financial condition.

Increased demand for and supply of vessels fitted with scrubbers to comply with IMO sulfur reduction requirements could reduce demand for our existing vessels and impair our ability to time charter-out our vessels at competitive rates.

As of December 31, 2023, owners of approximately 34% of the worldwide fleet of tankers with capacity over 10,000 dead-weight tonnes had fitted or planned to fit scrubbers on their vessels. Fitting scrubbers allows a ship to consume high sulfur fuel oil, which is less expensive than the low sulfur fuel oil that ships without scrubbers must consume to comply with the IMO 2020 low sulfur emission requirements. Generally, owners of vessels with higher operating fuel requirements (generally larger ships) are more inclined to install scrubbers to comply with IMO 2020. Fuel expense reductions from operating scrubber-fitted ships could result in a substantial reduction of bunker cost for charterers compared to the vessels in our fleet, which do not have scrubbers. If (a) the supply of scrubber-fitted vessels increases, (b) the differential between the cost of high sulfur fuel oil and low sulfur fuel oil is high and (c) charterers prefer such vessels over our vessels to the extent they do not have scrubbers, demand for our vessels may be reduced and our ability to time charter-out our vessels at competitive rates may be impaired, which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our insurance may be insufficient to cover losses that may occur to our property or result from our operations.

The operation of oil tankers and lightering support vessels and the transfer of oil is inherently risky. Although we carry hull and machinery (marine and war risks) and protection and indemnity insurance, and other liability insurance, all risks may not be adequately insured against, and any particular claim may not be paid or paid in full. In addition, we do not carry insurance on our vessels covering the loss of revenues resulting from vessel off-hire time. Any significant unpaid claims or off-hire time of our vessels could harm our business, operating results and financial condition. Any claims covered by insurance would be subject to deductibles, and since it is possible that a large number of claims may be brought, the aggregate amount of these deductibles could be material. Certain of our insurance coverage is maintained through mutual protection and indemnity associations, and as a member of such associations, we may be required to make additional payments over and above budgeted premiums if member claims exceed association reserves. In addition, the cost of this protection and indemnity coverage has significantly increased and may continue to increase. Even if our insurance coverage is adequate to cover our losses, we may not be able to obtain a timely replacement vessel in the event of a total loss of a vessel.

15

We may be unable to procure adequate insurance coverage at commercially reasonable rates in the future. For example, more stringent environmental regulations have led to increased costs for, and in the future may result in the lack of availability of, insurance against risks of environmental damage or pollution. A catastrophic oil spill, marine disasters or natural disasters could exceed the insurance coverage, which could harm our business, financial condition and operating results. Any uninsured or under-insured loss could harm our business and financial condition. In addition, the insurance may be voidable by the insurers as a result of certain actions, such as vessels failing to maintain certification with applicable maritime regulatory organizations.

Changes in the insurance markets attributable to structural changes in insurance and reinsurance markets and risk appetite, economic factors, the impact of any pandemics, epidemics or other public health crises, war, terrorist attacks, environmental catastrophes or political changes may also make certain types of insurance more difficult to obtain. In addition, the insurance that may be available may be significantly more expensive than existing coverage or be available only with restrictive terms. Following our sale in January 2022 of the Teekay Gas Business, we own a smaller fleet, which may impact our buying power and could lead to us having increased insurance coverage costs.

Maritime claimants could arrest, or port authorities could detain, our vessels, which could interrupt our cash flow.

Crew members, suppliers of goods and services to a vessel, shippers of cargo and other parties may be entitled to a maritime lien against that vessel for unsatisfied debts, claims or damages. In many jurisdictions, a maritime lienholder may enforce its lien by arresting a vessel through foreclosure proceedings. The arrest or attachment of one or more of our vessels could interrupt our cash flow and require us to pay large sums of funds to have the arrest or attachment lifted. In addition, in some jurisdictions, such as South Africa, under the “sister ship” theory of liability, a claimant may arrest both the vessel that is subject to the claimant’s maritime lien and any “associated” vessel, which is any vessel owned or controlled by the same owner. Claimants could try to assert “sister ship” liability against one vessel in our fleet or the RSAs in which we operate for claims relating to another of our ships. Also, port authorities may seek to detain our vessels in port, which could adversely affect our operating results or relationships with customers.

Exposure to interest rate fluctuations will result in fluctuations in our cash flows and operating results.

As of December 31, 2023, we had $140.8 million in aggregate principal amount of outstanding indebtedness and obligations related to finance leases that bear interest based on variable, floating rates. We anticipate that we will enter into additional variable-rate financing obligations in the future. We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes primarily through certain of Teekay Tankers' borrowings and obligations related to finance leases that require us to make interest payments based on Secured Overnight Financing Rate (or SOFR). Some of the agreements governing our revolving credit facility and finance lease facilities provide for an alternate method of calculating interest rates in the event that a SOFR rate is unavailable. Transitions to the alternative methods may adversely affect the costs of these debt and obligations related to finance leases.

Significant increases in interest rates could adversely affect our profit margins, results of operations and our ability to service our debt. Interest rates remain significantly higher than rates in 2021 with central banks implementing several rate increases during 2022 and 2023. In accordance with our risk management policy, we may use interest rate swaps to reduce our exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates. The principal objective of these contracts is to minimize the risks and costs associated with our floating rate debt. However, any hedging activities entered into by us may not be effective in mitigating our interest rate risk from our variable rate indebtedness.

Returns on our cash and short-term investments and the value of any marketable securities in which we may invest could be adversely affected by changes in interest rates.

For further information about our financial instruments at December 31, 2023 that are sensitive to changes in interest rates, please read "Item 11 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk".

Our cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments are exposed to credit risk, which may be adversely affected by market conditions, interest rates and failures of financial institutions.

As of December 31, 2023, we had a total of $652.7 million of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments. We manage our available cash through various financial institutions and primarily invest our cash reserves in U.S. Government treasury bills and bank deposits. A collapse or bankruptcy of any of the financial institutions in which or through which we hold or invest our cash reserves, or rumors or the appearance of any such potential collapse or bankruptcy, might prevent us from accessing all or a portion of our cash, cash equivalents or short-term investments for an uncertain period of time, if at all. As demonstrated in recent years, the collapse of a financial institution may occur very rapidly. Any material limitation on our ability to access our cash, cash equivalents or short-term investments could adversely affect our liquidity, results of operations and ability to meet our obligations. In addition, our returns on our cash invested in short-term investments and the value of any marketable securities in which we may invest could be adversely affected by changes in interest rates or by the performance of the capital markets. For further information about our financial instruments at December 31, 2023 that are exposed to credit risk, please read "Item 11 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk".

We may be unable to take advantage of favorable opportunities in the spot market to the extent any of our vessels are employed on medium to long-term time charters.

As of the date of this Annual Report, one of our time chartered-in vessels operates under a fixed-rate time-charter contract. To the extent we enter into medium or long-term time charters, the vessels committed to such time charters may not be available for spot charters during periods of increasing charter hire rates, when spot charters might be more profitable.

Teekay Tankers’ U.S. Gulf lightering business competes with alternative methods of delivering crude oil to ports, which may limit its earnings in this area of its operations.

Teekay Tankers’ U.S. Gulf lightering business faces competition from alternative methods of delivering crude oil shipments to port and exports to offshore loading facilities for consolidation onto larger vessels, including the Louisiana Offshore Oil Platform and deep water terminals in Corpus Christi and Houston, Texas which can partially load Very Large Crude Carriers (or VLCCs). While we believe that lightering offers advantages over alternative methods of delivering crude oil to or from U.S. Gulf ports, Teekay Tankers’ lightering revenues may be limited due to the availability of alternative methods.

Teekay Tankers’ full service lightering operations are subject to specific risks that could lead to accidents, oil spills or property damage.

Lightering is subject to specific risks arising from the process of safely bringing two large moving tankers next to each other and mooring them for lightering operations in which oil, refined petroleum products or other cargoes are transferred from one ship to the other. These operations require a high degree of expertise and present a higher risk of collision or spill compared to when docking a vessel or transferring cargo at port. Lightering operations, similar to marine transportation in general, are also subject to risks due to events such as mechanical failures, human error, and weather conditions.

An oil spill could also result in significant liability, including fines, penalties, criminal liability, remediation costs and natural resource damages under international and U.S. federal, state and local laws, as well as third-party damages, and we may be subjected to such liability without regard to whether we were negligent or at fault. These costs could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition and any such incident could harm our reputation with current or potential charterers of our tankers.

Although we carry insurance coverage as customary in the shipping industry, with coverage for, among other things, accidents, property damage and potential spills of oil (including marine fuel) and other pollution incidents, not all risks can be insured, specific claims may be rejected, and we might not be always able to obtain adequate insurance coverage at reasonable rates. There can be no assurance that our insurance will be sufficient to cover all such risks or that any claims will not have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our and many of our customers' substantial operations outside the United States expose us and them to political, governmental, and economic instability, which could harm our operations.

Since our operations and the operations of our customers are primarily conducted outside of the United States, they may be affected by economic, political and governmental conditions in the countries where we or our customers engage in business or where our vessels are registered. Any disruption caused by these factors could harm our business, including by reducing the levels of oil exploration, development, and production activities in these areas or restricting the pool of customers. We derive some of our revenues from shipping oil from politically unstable regions. Conflicts in these regions have included attacks on ships and other efforts to disrupt shipping. Hostilities or other political instability in regions where we operate or where we may operate could have a material adverse effect on the growth of our business, results of operations and financial condition and ability to pay dividends.

In addition, tariffs, trade embargoes and other economic sanctions by the United States or other countries against countries in which we operate, to which we trade, or to which we or any of our customers, joint venture partners or business partners become subject, may limit trading activities with those countries or with customers, which could also harm our business and ability to pay dividends and/or repurchase shares. For example, the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom and numerous other nations imposed substantial additional sanctions on Russia for its invasion of Ukraine. In addition, in 2018 and 2019, general trade tensions between the United States and China escalated and led to each nation imposing tariffs on certain products of the other nation, with the United States and China subsequently negotiating an agreement to reduce trade tensions which became effective in February 2020. Our business could be harmed by increasing trade protectionism or trade tensions between the United States and China, or trade embargoes or other economic sanctions by the United States or other countries against countries in the Middle East or Asia, Russia or elsewhere as a result of terrorist attacks, hostilities, or diplomatic or political pressures that limit trading activities with those countries as we are currently seeing in the Red Sea.

Exposure to currency exchange rate fluctuations results in fluctuations in our cash flows and operating results.

Our tanker operations earn revenues in U.S. Dollars, while our Australian marine services business primarily earns revenues in Australian Dollars. A portion of our operating costs are incurred in currencies other than U.S. Dollars. This partial mismatch in operating revenues and expenses leads to fluctuations in net income due to changes in the value of the U.S. Dollar relative to other currencies, in particular the Australian Dollar, the Euro, the Singapore Dollar, the Canadian Dollar, and the British Pound.

Since we report our operating results in U.S. Dollars, changes in the value of the U.S. Dollar relative to other currencies also result in fluctuations of our reported revenues and earnings. Under U.S. accounting standards, all foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities, such as cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, restricted cash, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, advances from affiliates and long-term debt are revalued and reported based on the prevailing exchange rates at the end of the applicable period. This revaluation historically has caused us to report significant unrealized foreign currency exchange gains or losses each period.

17

Our operating results are subject to seasonal fluctuations.

Our tankers operate in markets that have historically exhibited seasonal variations in tanker demand and, therefore, in spot-charter rates. This seasonality may result in quarter-to-quarter volatility in our results of operations. Tanker markets are typically stronger in the winter months as a result of increased oil consumption in the northern hemisphere but weaker in the summer months as a result of lower oil consumption in the northern hemisphere and refinery maintenance. In addition, unpredictable weather patterns during the winter months tend to disrupt vessel scheduling, which historically has increased oil price volatility and oil trading activities in the winter months. As a result, revenues generated by the tankers in our fleet have historically been weaker during our fiscal quarters ended June 30 and September 30, and stronger in our fiscal quarters ended December 31 and March 31.

Our failure to renew or replace fixed-rate charters could cause us to trade the related vessels in the spot market, which could adversely affect our operating results and make them more volatile.

Our general vessel employment strategy includes using a mix of spot and fixed-rate time charters, and we expect to enter into fixed-rate time charters in the future. As of the date of this Annual Report, one of our time chartered-in vessels operates under a fixed-rate time-charter contract, which is scheduled to expire in 2024. If upon its scheduled expiration, or any early termination, we are unable to renew or replace the fixed-rate charter on favorable terms, or if we choose not to renew or replace this fixed-rate charter, we may employ the vessel in the volatile spot market. Increasing our exposure to the spot market, particularly during periods of unfavorable market conditions, could harm our results of operations and make them more volatile.

Changes in market conditions may limit our access to capital and our growth.

Historically, we have relied primarily upon bank financing and debt and equity offerings to fund our growth. Changes in market conditions in the energy and shipping sectors could reduce our and Teekay Tankers' access to capital, particularly equity capital. Issuing additional common equity would be dilutive to shareholders. Lack of access to debt or equity capital at reasonable rates would adversely affect our growth or fleet renewal prospects and our ability to refinance debt and pay dividends to our shareholders.

We have recognized asset impairments in the past and we may recognize additional impairments in the future, which will reduce our earnings and net assets.

If we determine at any time that an asset has been impaired, we may need to recognize an impairment charge that will reduce our earnings and net assets. We review our vessels for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable, which occurs when an asset's carrying value is greater than the estimated undiscounted future cash flows the asset is expected to generate over its remaining useful life. We review our goodwill for impairment annually and if a reporting unit's goodwill carrying value is greater than the estimated fair value, the goodwill attributable to that reporting unit is impaired. We evaluate the investment in our equity-accounted joint venture for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of such investment may have experienced an other-than-temporary decline in value below its carrying value.

Further, if we determine at any time that a vessel’s future useful life and cash flows require us to impair its value on our financial statements, we may need to recognize a significant impairment charge against our earnings. Such a determination involves numerous assumptions and estimates, some of which require more judgment and are less predictable. We recognized asset impairment charges of $92.4 million in 2021 in relation to continuing operations. There were no impairment charges in 2023 or 2022. The 2021 charge included impairments of $66.9 million and $24.7 million for four Suezmax tankers and seven Aframax / LR2 tankers, respectively, of Teekay Tankers.

The loss of any key customer or its inability to pay for our services could result in a significant loss of revenue in a given period.

We have derived, and believe that we will continue to derive, a significant portion of our revenues from a limited number of customers. While no customer accounted for over 10% of our consolidated revenues from continuing operations during 2023, 2022 or 2021, the loss of any significant customer or a substantial decline in the amount of services requested by a significant customer, or the inability of a significant customer to pay for our services, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We could lose a customer or the benefits of a contract if:

the customer fails to make payments because of its financial inability, disagreements with us or otherwise;
we agree to reduce the payments due to us under a contract because of the customer’s inability to continue making the original payments;
upon a breach by us of the relevant contract, the customer exercises certain rights to terminate the contract;
the customer terminates the contract because we fail to deliver the vessel within a fixed period of time, the vessel is lost or damaged beyond repair, there are serious deficiencies in the vessel or prolonged periods of off-hire, or we default under the contract;
under some of our contracts, the customer terminates the contract because of the termination of the customer's sales agreement or a prolonged force majeure affecting the customer, including damage to or destruction of relevant facilities, war or political unrest preventing us from performing services for that customer; or
the customer becomes subject to applicable sanctions laws which prohibit our ability to lawfully charter our vessel to such customer.

Our strategy includes seeking suitable investment or acquisition opportunities in both the broader shipping sector and, potentially, in new and adjacent markets, particularly following our sale of the Teekay Gas Business. We may be unable to make or realize the expected benefits from investments or acquisitions, and growth through any such transaction may harm our financial condition and performance.

A principal component of our business strategy is seeking suitable investment or acquisition opportunities in both the broader shipping sector and, potentially, in new and adjacent markets, particularly following our sale of the Teekay Gas Business. Any such growth may involve our expansion into new geographic areas and new services. We may not be successful in expanding our operations and any expansion may not be profitable. In order to achieve growth, we may acquire new companies or businesses, which transactions may involve business risks commonly encountered in acquisitions of companies, including:

interruption of, or loss of momentum in, the activities of one or more of an acquired company’s businesses and our businesses;
additional demands on members of our senior management while integrating acquired businesses or managing new investments, which would decrease the time they have to manage our existing business, service existing customers and attract new customers;
difficulties identifying suitable acquisition candidates or investment opportunities, and successfully competing for available opportunities;
difficulties integrating the operations, personnel and business culture of acquired companies;
difficulties coordinating and managing geographically separate organizations;
adverse effects on relationships with our existing suppliers and customers, and those of the companies acquired or invested in;
difficulties entering geographic markets or new market segments in which we have no or limited experience; and
loss of key officers and employees of acquired companies.

We may not be successful in identifying, negotiating and completing any potential acquisition or investment opportunities. Any such transactions may not be profitable to us at the time of their completion and may not generate revenues, profits or cash flows sufficient to justify our investment. In addition, our growth strategy exposes us to risks that may harm our results of operations and financial condition, including the risks that we may: fail to realize anticipated benefits, such as cost savings, revenue and cash flow enhancements and earnings accretion; decrease our liquidity by using a significant portion of our available cash or borrowing capacity to finance acquisitions or investments; incur additional indebtedness, which may result in significantly increased interest expense or financial leverage, or issue additional equity securities to finance acquisitions, which may result in significant shareholder dilution; incur or assume unanticipated liabilities, losses or costs associated with the business acquired; or incur other significant charges, such as impairment of goodwill or other intangible assets, asset devaluation or restructuring charges.

Unlike newbuildings, existing vessels typically do not carry warranties as to their condition. While we generally inspect existing vessels prior to purchase, such an inspection would normally not provide us with as much knowledge of a vessel’s condition as we would possess if it had been built for us and operated by us during its life. Repairs and maintenance costs for existing vessels are difficult to predict and may be substantially higher than for vessels we have operated since they were built. These costs could decrease our cash flows and reduce our liquidity.

Legal and Regulatory Risks

We are bound to adhere to sanctions from many jurisdictions, including the United States, United Kingdom, European Union, and Canada, due to our domicile and location of offices.

The United States has imposed sanctions on several countries or regions such as Cuba, North Korea, Syria, Iran, and the Ukraine's Crimea, Luhansk and Donetsk regions. The U.S. also has imposed substantial restrictions on trade with Yemen and Venezuela.

Since February 2022, the United States and numerous other organizations and nations, notably including the European Union and United Kingdom, have imposed substantial sanctions on Russia regarding its invasion of Ukraine. During 2022, Australia, the United Kingdom, the U.S. and the European Union prohibited the import of Russian oil into their territories. As of December 2022, for crude oil and February 2023, for petroleum products, the U.S., United Kingdom, and European Union in particular have also prohibited the provision of financial, legal, brokering, shipping and insurance services to any person of any nationality carrying Russian origin oil unless it is at or below a stated cap (currently $60 per barrel for crude oil and $100 per barrel for petroleum products). These Russian sanctions, together with the global reaction to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, may reduce our revenues.

Past port calls by our vessels or third-party vessels participating in RSAs to countries that are subject to sanctions imposed by the United States, European Union and the United Kingdom could harm our business.

Several years ago, oil tankers owned or chartered-in by us, or third-party vessels participating in RSAs from which we derived revenue, made port calls in certain countries that are currently subject to sanctions imposed by the U.S., European Union, and United Kingdom, for the loading and discharging of oil products. Those port calls did not violate U.S., European Union or United Kingdom sanctions at the time, and we intend to maintain our compliance with all U.S., European Union, and United Kingdom sanctions.

These historical port calls have not adversely affected our business, which we believe is due to such port calls being legal at the time and that we are able to demonstrate our compliance. However, some charterers may choose not to utilize a vessel that had previously called at a port in a now sanctioned country. Some investors might decide not to invest in us simply because we previously called on, or through our participation in RSAs previously received revenue from calls on, ports in these sanctioned countries. Any such investor reaction could adversely affect the market for our common shares.

19

Failure to comply with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the UK Bribery Act, the UK Criminal Finances Act, the UK Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act and similar laws in other jurisdictions could result in fines, criminal penalties, contract terminations and an adverse effect on our business.

We operate our vessels worldwide, which may require our vessels to trade in countries known to have a reputation for corruption. We are committed to doing business in accordance with applicable anti-corruption laws and have adopted a code of business conduct and ethics which is consistent and in full compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (or the FCPA) of the United States, the Bribery Act 2010 (or the UK Bribery Act), the Criminal Finances Act 2017 (or the CFA) and the Economic Crime and Corporate Transparency Act 2023 (or the ECCTA) of the United Kingdom. We are subject, however, to the risk that we, our affiliated entities or their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents may take actions determined to be in violation of applicable anti-corruption and anti-money laundering laws, including the FCPA, the UK Bribery Act, the CFA and the ECCTA. Any such violation could result in substantial fines, sanctions, civil and/or criminal penalties, or curtailment of operations in certain jurisdictions, and might adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. In addition, actual or alleged violations could damage our reputation and ability to do business. Furthermore, detecting, investigating, and resolving actual or alleged violations is expensive and can consume significant time and attention of our senior management.

The shipping industry is subject to substantial environmental and other regulations, which may significantly limit operations and increase expenses and adversely impact our insurance coverage.

Our operations are affected by extensive and changing international, national and local environmental protection laws, regulations, treaties and conventions which are in force in international waters, the jurisdictional waters of the countries in which our vessels operate, as well as the countries of our vessels’ registration, including those governing oil spills, discharges to air and water, and the handling and disposal of hazardous substances and wastes. Many of these requirements are designed to reduce the risk of oil spills and other pollution. In addition, we believe that the heightened environmental, quality and security concerns of insurance underwriters, regulators and charterers will lead to additional regulatory requirements, including enhanced risk assessment and security requirements and greater inspection and safety requirements on vessels. For example, new or amended legislation relating to ship recycling, sewage systems, emission control (including emissions of greenhouse gases and other pollutants) as well as ballast water treatment and ballast water handling have been or may be adopted. The International Maritime Organization (or the IMO), the United Nations agency for maritime safety and the prevention of pollution by vessels, has also established progressive standards that continue to limit emissions from ships as they strive to meet their 2030 and 2050 goals. These and other laws or regulations may require significant additional capital expenditures or operating expenses in order for us to comply with the laws and regulations and maintain our vessels in compliance with international and national regulations.

The environmental and other laws and regulations applicable to us may affect the resale value or useful lives of our vessels, require a reduction in cargo capacity, ship modifications or operational changes or restrictions, lead to decreased availability of insurance coverage for environmental matters or result in the denial of access to certain jurisdictional waters or ports, or detention in, certain ports. Under local, national, and foreign laws, as well as international treaties and conventions, we could incur material liabilities, including cleanup obligations, if there is a release of petroleum or other hazardous substances from our vessels or otherwise in connection with our operations. We could also become subject to personal injury or property damage claims relating to the release of or exposure to hazardous materials associated with our operations. In addition, failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations may result in administrative and civil penalties, criminal sanctions or the suspension or termination of our operations, including, in certain instances, seizure or detention of our vessels. For further information about regulations affecting our business and the related requirements imposed on us, please read "Item 4 – Information on the Company: B. Business Overview – Regulations".

Climate change and greenhouse gas restrictions may adversely impact our operations and markets.

An increasing concern for and focus on climate change has promoted extensive existing and proposed international, national and local regulations intended to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (including from various jurisdictions and the IMO). These regulatory measures may include the adoption of cap and trade regimes, carbon taxes, use of alternative fuels, increased efficiency standards and incentives or mandates for renewable energy. Compliance with these or other regulations and our efforts to participate in reducing greenhouse gas emissions are expected to increase our compliance costs and require additional capital expenditures to reduce vessel emissions and may require changes to our business and could have an adverse impact on our financial condition.

Our business includes transporting oil and oil products. Regulatory changes and growing public concern about the environmental impact of climate change may lead to reduced demand for our assets and decreased demand for our services, while increasing or creating greater incentives for use of alternative energy sources. We expect regulatory and consumer efforts aimed at combating climate change to intensify and accelerate. Although we do not expect demand for oil to decline dramatically over the short-term, in the long-term, climate change initiatives will likely significantly affect demand for oil and for alternatives. Any such change could adversely affect our ability to compete in a changing market and our business, financial condition, and results of operations. For example, as of January 1, 2024, the European Union has expanded the existing EU Emissions Trading System (or EU ETS) to include carbon dioxide (or CO2) emissions from vessels of 5,000 gross tonnage and above. Shipping companies which perform voyages to/from/within the EU and EEA (Iceland, Liechtenstein, and Norway) will need to acquire and surrender EU allowances (or EUAs) through their Union Registry account by September of the following year to cover their annual emissions. One EUA is equivalent to one tonne of CO2 emission. The EU ETS covers 50% of emissions from voyages starting or ending outside of the EU and 100% of emissions from voyages that occur between two EU ports and when ships are within EU ports. The surrendering of allowances by shipping companies will be gradually increased with respect to verified emissions reported for the years 2024 and 2025. This means, in 2025, shipping companies will be liable to surrender allowances for 40% of verified emissions reported in 2024. In 2026, this increases to 70% of verified emissions reported in 2025. As of 2027 and each year thereafter, shipping companies will have to surrender allowances reflecting 100% of their verified emissions.

20

Increasing scrutiny and changing expectations from certain investors, lenders, customers and other market participants with respect to ESG policies and practices may impose additional costs on us or expose us to additional risks.

In recent years, companies across all industries are facing increasing scrutiny relating to their ESG policies. Certain investor advocacy groups, certain institutional investors, investment funds, lenders and other market participants remain focused on ESG practices and place significant importance on the implications and social cost of their investments. This increased focus and activism related to ESG and similar matters may hinder access to capital, as these investors and lenders may decide to reallocate capital or to not commit capital as a result of their assessment of a company’s ESG practices. Companies that do not adapt to or comply with evolving expectations and standards by these investors, lenders or other industry stakeholders, or companies, which are perceived to have not responded appropriately to the growing concern for ESG issues, regardless of whether there is a legal requirement to do so, may suffer from reputational damage among these groups and their business, financial condition and stock price may be adversely affected.

We may face increasing pressures from certain investors, lenders, customers, and other market participants, which are increasingly focused on climate change, to prioritize sustainable energy practices, reduce our carbon footprint and promote sustainability. As a result, we may be required to implement more stringent ESG procedures or standards so that our interested existing and future investors and lenders remain invested in us and make further investments in us, or in order for customers to consider conducting future business with us, especially given our business of transporting oil and oil products. In addition, it is likely we will incur additional costs and require additional resources to monitor, report and comply with wide-ranging ESG requirements. The occurrence of any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

As a Marshall Islands corporation with our headquarters in Bermuda and with a majority of our subsidiaries being Marshall Islands entities and also having subsidiaries in other offshore jurisdictions, our operations may be subject to economic substance requirements, which could impact our business.

Finance ministers of the European Union rate jurisdictions for tax transparency, governance, real economic activity, and corporate tax rate. Countries that do not adequately cooperate with the finance ministers are put on a “grey list” or a “blacklist”. As of December 31, 2022, both Bermuda and the Marshall Islands remained “white-listed” by the European Union. However, on February 14, 2023, the European Union moved the Marshall Islands to the "blacklist" until October 17, 2023, when they were moved back to the "white list". If Bermuda and/or the Marshall Islands were put back onto the blacklist and sanctions or other financial, tax or regulatory measures were applied by European Union member states to countries on the list, or further economic substance requirements were imposed by Bermuda and/or the Marshall Islands, our business could be harmed.

European Union member states have agreed upon a set of measures, which they can choose to apply against blacklisted countries, including increased monitoring and audits, withholding taxes, special documentation requirements and anti-abuse provisions. The European Commission has stated it will continue to support member states' efforts to develop a more coordinated approach to sanctions for the listed countries. European Union legislation prohibits European Union funds from being channeled or transited through entities in countries on the blacklist. Other jurisdictions in which we operate could be put on the blacklist in the future.

We are a Marshall Islands corporation with our headquarters in Bermuda. A majority of our subsidiaries are Marshall Islands entities, and a number of our subsidiaries are either organized or registered in Bermuda. These jurisdictions have enacted economic substance laws and regulations with which we may be obligated to comply. We believe that we and our subsidiaries are compliant with the Bermuda and the Marshall Islands economic substance requirements. However, if there were a change in the requirements or interpretation thereof, or if there were an unexpected change to our operations, any such change could result in non-compliance with the economic substance legislation and related fines or other penalties, increased monitoring and audits, and dissolution of the non-compliant entity, which could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or operating results.

Regulations relating to ballast water discharge may adversely affect our operational results and financial condition.

The IMO has imposed updated guidelines for ballast water management systems specifying the maximum amount of viable organisms allowed to be discharged from a vessel’s ballast water. Depending on the date of the International Oil Pollution Prevention renewal survey, existing vessels are required to comply with updated applicable standards before September 8, 2024. Compliance with the applicable standard will involve installing on-board systems to treat ballast water and eliminate unwanted organisms. We are currently implementing ballast water management system upgrades on our vessels in accordance with the required timelines imposed by the IMO and also in line with our asset management requirements. The cost of compliance with these regulations, primarily from installing such systems, may be substantial and may adversely affect our results of operation and financial condition.

In addition to the requirements under the IMO, the United States Coast Guard (or the USCG) has imposed mandatory ballast water management practices for all vessels equipped with ballast water tanks and entering U.S. waters. These USCG regulations may have the effect of restricting our vessels from entering U.S. waters, unless we equip our vessels with pre-approved BWTS management systems or receive authorization by a duly-issued permit or exemption.

The smuggling of drugs or other contraband onto our vessels may lead to governmental claims against us.

Cocaine production has risen dramatically in recent years, and the demand for cocaine has seen an increase in many countries as well. As a result, new hubs and new routes for cocaine smuggling have emerged, and seizures by law enforcement agencies are reaching record highs around the world. Many of these seizures have a direct impact on merchant ships. Detentions of vessels and crew members are possible when cocaine is discovered, leading to operational delays, lengthy legal proceedings, psychological impacts on employees, and associated costs.

21

Our vessels call on certain ports, such as Brazil, Venezuela and Colombia, where there is a higher risk that smugglers may attempt to hide drugs and other contraband on vessels, with or without the knowledge of crew members. To the extent our vessels are found with contraband, whether inside or attached to the hull of our vessel and whether with or without the knowledge of any of our crew, we may face governmental or other regulatory claims which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Information and Technology Risks

A cyber-attack could materially disrupt our business.

We rely on information technology systems and networks in our operations and the administration of our business. Cyber-attacks have increased in number and sophistication in recent years. Our operations could be targeted by individuals or groups seeking to sabotage or disrupt our information technology systems and networks, or to steal data. A successful cyber-attack could materially disrupt our operations, including the safety of our operations, or lead to the unauthorized release of information or alteration of information on our systems. Any such attack or other breaches of our information technology systems could have a material adverse effect on our business, and results of operations.

We rely on our information systems to conduct our business, and failure to protect these systems against viruses and security breaches could adversely affect our business and results of operations. Additionally, if these systems fail or become unavailable for any significant period of time, our business could be harmed.

Our business is international in scope, and the efficient operation of our business, including processing, transmitting and storing electronic and financial information and aspects of the control and operation of our vessels, is dependent on computer hardware and software systems. Information systems are vulnerable to security breaches and other attacks by computer hackers and cyber terrorists. We rely on what we believe are industry-accepted security measures and technology in seeking to secure confidential and proprietary information maintained on our information systems and to protect our assets. However, these measures and technology may not adequately prevent security breaches or cyberattacks.

We may be required to spend significant capital and other resources to further protect us, our information systems and our assets against threats of security breaches, computer viruses and cyberattacks, or to alleviate problems caused by such matters. Security breaches, viruses and cyberattacks could also harm our reputation and expose us to claims, litigation and other possible liabilities. Any inability to prevent security breaches (including the inability of our third-party vendors, suppliers or counterparties to prevent security breaches) could also cause existing customers to lose confidence in our information systems and harm our reputation, cause losses to us or our customers, damage our reputation, and increase our costs.

In addition, the unavailability of the information systems or the failure of these systems to perform as anticipated for any reason could disrupt our business and could result in decreased performance and increased operating costs. Any significant interruption or failure of our information systems or any significant breach of security could adversely affect our business, financial condition. and results of operations.

Our failure to comply with data privacy laws could damage our customer relationships and expose us to litigation risks and potential fines.

Data privacy is subject to frequently changing laws, rules and regulations, which sometimes conflict among the various jurisdictions and countries in which we provide services and continue to develop in ways which we cannot predict, including with respect to evolving technologies such as cloud computing and artificial intelligence. These data privacy laws, rules and regulations often include significant penalties for non-compliance. Our failure to adhere to or successfully implement processes in response to changing regulatory requirements in this area could result in legal liability or impairment to our reputation in the marketplace, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks Related to an Investment in Our Securities

We are incorporated in the Republic of the Marshall Islands, which does not have a well-developed body of corporate case law or bankruptcy law and, as a result, shareholders may have fewer rights and protections under Marshall Islands law than under a typical jurisdiction in the United States.

Our corporate affairs are governed by our articles of incorporation and bylaws and by the Marshall Islands Business Corporations Act (or the BCA). Many of the provisions of the BCA resemble provisions of the corporation laws of a number of states in the United States. However, there have been few judicial cases in the Republic of the Marshall Islands interpreting the BCA. The rights and fiduciary responsibilities of directors and officers under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands are not as clearly established as the rights and fiduciary responsibilities of directors and officers under statutes or judicial precedent in existence in certain U.S. jurisdictions.

Shareholder rights may differ as well. While the BCA incorporates the non-statutory law, or judicial case law, of the State of Delaware and other states with substantially similar legislative provisions, our shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions by management, directors or any controlling shareholders than would shareholders of a corporation incorporated in a U.S. jurisdiction. In addition, the Republic of the Marshall Islands does not have a well-developed body of bankruptcy law. As such, in the case of a bankruptcy involving us, there may be a delay of bankruptcy proceedings and the ability of security holders and creditors to receive recovery after a bankruptcy proceeding, and any such recovery may be less predictable.

22

Because we are organized under the laws of the Marshall Islands, it may be difficult to serve us with legal process or enforce judgments against us, our directors or our management.

We are organized under the laws of the Marshall Islands, and all of our assets are located outside of the United States. In addition, a majority of our directors and officers are non-residents of the United States, and all or a substantial portion of the assets of these non-residents are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult or impossible to bring an action against us or against these individuals in the United States. Even if successful in bringing an action of this kind, the laws of the Marshall Islands and of other jurisdictions may prevent or restrict the enforcement of a judgment against us or our assets or our directors and officers.

Tax Risks

In addition to the following risk factors, you should read "Item 4E – Taxation of the Company", "Item 10 – Additional Information – Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations" and "Item 10 – Additional Information – Non-United States Tax Considerations" for a more complete discussion of the expected material U.S. federal and non-U.S. income tax considerations relating to us and the ownership and disposition of our common stock.

Although we presently do not expect to be a "passive foreign investment company" (or PFIC) for the 2024 tax year, we currently have significant cash assets which could increase our risk that U.S. tax authorities could treat us as a PFIC in 2024 and future years, which could have adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to our U.S. shareholders and other adverse consequences to us and all our shareholders.

A non-U.S. entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes will be treated as a PFIC for such purposes in any tax year in which, after taking into account the income and assets of the corporation and, pursuant to a “look-through” rule, any other corporation or partnership in which the corporation directly or indirectly owns at least 25% of the stock or equity interests (by value) and any partnership in which the corporation directly or indirectly owns less than 25% of the equity interests (by value) to the extent the corporation satisfies an "active partner" test and does not elect out of "look through" treatment, either (i) at least 75% of its gross income consists of “passive income” (or the PFIC income test) or (ii) at least 50% of the average value of the entity’s assets is attributable to assets that produce or are held for the production of “passive income” (or the PFIC asset test). For purposes of these tests, “passive income” includes dividends, interest, gains from the sale or exchange of investment property and rents and royalties other than rents and royalties that are received from unrelated parties in connection with the active conduct of a trade or business. By contrast, income derived from the performance of services does not constitute “passive income.”

For purposes of the PFIC asset test, cash and other current assets readily convertible into cash (or "cash assets") are considered to be assets that produce passive income. We have significant cash assets. Please read “Item 5 – Operating and Financial Review and Prospects – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Overview”. At the present time, we do not expect to be treated as a PFIC for the 2024 tax year under the PFIC asset test. However, if current estimates or assumptions relating to our current PFIC asset test modeling, including our assumptions on the tanker market and the value of our fleet, were to prove to be inaccurate or contrary to anticipated future financial results, or if any other factors that would negatively affect PFIC asset outcomes were to occur, we could be a PFIC in 2024 or future tax years. In addition, should Teekay Tankers dispose of a certain number of their vessels without immediately replacing those vessels, we expect this would result in a significant risk that we would become a PFIC in the tax year in which these sales occurred. Furthermore, if our ownership of Teekay Tankers or another look-through subsidiary falls below 25% of the equity interests (by value), such as by way of us selling equity interests in any such look-through subsidiary, by way of any such look-through subsidiary issuing new equity and diluting our ownership, or by way of a merger of a look-through subsidiary, based on our current asset portfolio, we expect that we would become a PFIC in the year in which this event occurred. If any of the scenarios set out above were to occur, or any other scenario were to occur which resulted in a substantial increase in cash or other passive assets, our PFIC status for any tax year may depend significantly on how, and how quickly, we use our cash assets, including the cash proceeds received in connection with any dispositions of our shares in Teekay Tankers (or another look-through subsidiary), or received from the sale of any of Teekay Tankers’ vessels or from cash generated through vessel operations, and the extent to which we acquire or retain assets that are not considered to produce passive income. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will not be a PFIC in 2024 or any future tax years under the PFIC asset test, which could have adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences to U.S. shareholders and may cause the price of our common stock to decline and materially and adversely affect our ability to raise capital on acceptable terms.

Additionally, with respect to the PFIC income test, there are legal uncertainties involved in determining whether the income derived from our and our look-through subsidiaries' time-chartering activities constitutes rental income or income derived from the performance of services, including the decision in Tidewater Inc. v. United States, 565 F.3d 299 (5th Cir. 2009), which held that income derived from certain time-chartering activities should be treated as rental income rather than services income for purposes of a foreign sales corporation provision of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (or the Code). However, the Internal Revenue Service (or the IRS) stated in an Action on Decision (AOD 2010-01) that it disagrees with, and will not acquiesce to, the way that the rental versus services framework was applied to the facts in the Tidewater decision, and in its discussion stated that the time charters at issue in Tidewater would be treated as producing services income for PFIC purposes. The IRS’s statement with respect to Tidewater cannot be relied upon or otherwise cited as precedent by taxpayers. Consequently, in the absence of any binding legal authority specifically relating to the statutory provisions governing PFICs, there can be no assurance that the IRS or a court would not follow the Tidewater decision in interpreting the PFIC provisions of the Code. Nevertheless, based on our and our look-through subsidiaries’ current assets and operations, we intend to take the position that we are not now and have never been a PFIC by reason of the PFIC income test. No assurance can be given, however, that this position would be sustained by a court if contested by the IRS or that we would not constitute a PFIC by reason of the PFIC income test (or, alternatively, as described above, the PFIC asset test) for the 2024 tax year or any future tax year if there were to be changes in our and our look-through subsidiaries' assets, income or operations.

If we or the IRS were to determine that we are or have been a PFIC for any tax year during which a U.S. Holder (as defined below under "Item 10 – Additional Information – Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations") held our common stock, such U.S. Holder would face adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences. For a more comprehensive discussion regarding the tax consequences to U.S. Holders if we are treated as a PFIC, please read "Item 10 – Additional Information – Material United States Federal Income Tax Considerations – United States Federal Income Taxation of U.S. Holders – Consequences of Possible PFIC Classification".

We are subject to taxes. The imposition of taxes, including as a result of a change in tax law or accounting requirements, may reduce our cash available for distribution to shareholders, cash flows and results of operations.

We or our subsidiaries are subject to tax in certain jurisdictions in which we or our subsidiaries are organized, own assets or have operations, which reduces the amount of our cash available for distribution. In computing our tax obligations in these jurisdictions, we are required to take various tax accounting and reporting positions, including in certain cases estimates, on matters that are not entirely free from doubt and for which we may not have received rulings from the governing authorities. We cannot assure you that upon review of these positions, the applicable authorities will agree with our positions. A successful challenge by a tax authority could result in additional tax imposed on us or our subsidiaries, further reducing the cash available for distribution. We have established reserves in our financial statements that we believe are adequate to cover our liability for any such additional taxes. We cannot assure you, however, that such reserves will be sufficient to cover any additional tax liability that may be imposed on our subsidiaries. Additionally, tax laws, including tax rates, in the jurisdictions in which we operate may change as a result of macroeconomic or other factors outside of our control. For example, various governments and organizations such as the European Union and Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (or the OECD) are increasingly focused on tax reform and other legislative or regulatory action to increase tax revenue.

In January 2019, the OECD announced further work in continuation of its Base Erosion and Profit Shifting project, focusing on two “pillars.” Pillar One provides a framework for the reallocation of certain residual profits of multinational enterprises to market jurisdictions where goods or services are used or consumed. Pillar Two consists of two interrelated rules referred to as Global Anti-Base Erosion Rules, which operate to impose a minimum tax rate of 15% calculated on a jurisdictional basis. In October 2021, more than 130 countries tentatively signed on to a framework that imposes a minimum tax rate of 15%, among other provisions. The framework calls for law enactment by OECD and G20 members in 2022 to take effect in 2023 and 2024. Qualifying international shipping income is exempt from many aspects of this framework if the exemption requirements are met. On December 20, 2021, the OECD published model rules to implement the Pillar Two rules, which are generally consistent with agreement reached by the framework in October 2021. On December 12, 2022, the European Union member states agreed to implement the OECD’s Pillar Two global corporate minimum tax rate of 15% on large multinational enterprises with revenues of at least €750 million, which generally would go into effect in 2024. Legislatures of certain member states within the European Union, as well as legislatures of multiple countries outside of the European Union, in which we (or one of our “constituent entities,” as determined consistent with the Pillar Two framework) operate have drafted or enacted legislation to implement the OECD’s minimum tax proposal, including the countries of Canada, the United Kingdom, Australia, the Netherlands, and Norway. The application of the Pillar 2 rules continues to evolve and its implementation may result in additional tax imposed on us or our subsidiaries and increase the cost of operating in certain countries. We continue to evaluate the impact of these rules and are currently evaluating a variety of mitigating actions to reduce the potential impact.

In addition, changes in our operations or ownership could result in additional tax being imposed on us or on our subsidiaries in jurisdictions in which operations are conducted. For example, changes in the ownership of our stock may cause us to be unable to claim an exemption from U.S. federal income tax under Section 883 of the Code. If we were not exempt from tax under Section 883 of the Code, we would be subject to U.S. federal income tax on income we earn from voyages into or out of the United States, the amount of which is not within our complete control. In addition, we may rely on an exemption to be deemed non-resident in Canada for Canadian tax purposes under subsection 250(6) of the Canada Income Tax Act for (i) corporations whose principal business is international shipping and that derive all or substantially all of their revenue from international shipping, and (ii) corporations that are holding companies that have over half of the cost base of their investments in eligible international shipping subsidiaries and receive substantially all of their revenue as dividends from those eligible international shipping subsidiaries are exempt under subsection 250(6). If we were to cease to qualify for the subsection 250(6) exemption, we could be subject to Canadian income tax and also Canadian withholding tax on outbound distributions, which could have an adverse effect on our operating results. In addition, to the extent Teekay Corporation were to distribute dividends as a corporation determined to be resident in Canada, shareholders who are not resident in Canada for purposes of the Canada Income Tax Act would generally be subject to Canadian withholding tax in respect of such dividends paid by Teekay Corporation.

Typically, most of our and our subsidiaries' time-charter and spot-voyage charter contracts require the charterer to reimburse us for a certain period of time in respect of taxes incurred as a consequence of the voyage activities of our vessels, while performing under the relevant charter. However, our rights to reimbursement under charter contracts may not survive for as long as the applicable tax statutes of limitations in the jurisdictions in which we operate. As such, we may not be able to obtain reimbursement from our charterers where any applicable taxes that are not paid before the contractual claim period has expired.
Item 4.Information on the Company
A.Overview, History and Development
Overview

Teekay Corporation is a leading provider of international crude oil marine transportation and other marine services. Teekay currently provides these services directly and through its controlling ownership interest in Teekay Tankers Ltd. (NYSE: TNK) (or Teekay Tankers), one of the world’s largest owners and operators of mid-sized crude tankers.

The consolidated Teekay entities manage and operate approximately 64 conventional tankers and other marine assets, including vessels operated for the Australian government. With offices in eight countries and approximately 2,300 seagoing and shore-based employees, Teekay provides a comprehensive set of marine services to the world’s leading energy companies.

Our business strategy focuses on:

Generating attractive risk-adjusted returns, utilizing our strong operating franchise and capabilities, global footprint and operational excellence;
Offering a wide breadth of marine solutions to meet our customers’ needs;
Providing superior customer service by maintaining high reliability, safety, environmental and quality standards; and
24

Leveraging Teekay Parent’s deep expertise and experience in our industry to pursue suitable investment opportunities in both the broader shipping sector and, potentially, in new and adjacent markets, which we expect to be dynamic as the world pushes towards greater energy diversification.

Our organizational structure can be divided into (a) our controlling interest in Teekay Tankers and (b) Teekay and its remaining subsidiaries (or Teekay Parent).

At March 1, 2024, we have an economic ownership interest of 28.7% in Teekay Tankers and hold 53.8% of the voting power of Teekay Tankers, through our ownership of shares of Teekay Tankers' Class A and Class B common stock. Teekay Tankers includes all of our conventional crude oil and product tankers. Teekay Tankers' conventional tankers primarily operate in the spot tanker market or are subject to time charters or contracts of affreightment that are priced on a spot market basis or are short-term, fixed-rate contracts. Teekay Tankers considers contracts that have an original term of less than one year in duration to be short-term. As of March 1, 2024, one of its tankers is on a fixed-rate time-charter contract with an initial duration of at least one year. Teekay Tankers also owns a ship-to-ship (or STS) transfer business that performs full service lightering and lightering support operations in the U.S. Gulf and Caribbean. Please read “– B. Business Overview – Our Consolidated Fleet” and “– C. Organizational Structure”.

Following the sale of the Teekay Gas Business in January 2022 and the maturity of its Convertible Senior Notes due January 15, 2023 (or the Convertible Notes) in January 2023, Teekay Parent repaid all of its debt and is now debt free. As at December 31, 2023 Teekay Parent has a cash and short-term investments position of approximately $287 million. In addition to its interests in Teekay Tankers highlighted above, Teekay Parent also has direct business operations in Australia through which it provides operational and maintenance marine services to third parties, and Teekay Parent provides marine and corporate services to Teekay Tankers through its various management services companies. Teekay Parent no longer has direct interests in any vessels or FPSO units. Please read “– B. Operations – Teekay Parent”.

Teekay Parent has developed extensive industry experience and industry-leading capabilities over its 50-year history, and has significant financial strength and liquidity following the sale of the Teekay Gas Business in January 2022. As the world pushes for greater energy diversification and a lower environmental footprint, we expect to see investment and acquisition opportunities in both the broader shipping sectors and potentially new and adjacent markets. Our primary financial objective for Teekay Parent is to increase Teekay’s intrinsic value per share, which includes, among other things, increasing the intrinsic value of Teekay Tankers.
In addition to Teekay Tankers, we also formed and developed Teekay LNG Partners L.P. (now Seapeak) related to our expansion into the liquefied gas shipping sector. We sold our entire interests in Seapeak and related assets to affiliates of Stonepeak pursuant to the sale of the Teekay Gas Business in January 2022. Please read “Item 5 – Operating and Financial Review and Prospects – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Overview” for more information about the sale of the Teekay Gas Business.

The Teekay organization was founded in 1973. We are a Marshall Islands corporation and maintain our principal executive office at 4th Floor, Belvedere Building, 69 Pitts Bay Road, Hamilton, HM 08, Bermuda. Our telephone number at such address is (441) 298-2530.

The SEC maintains an Internet site at www.sec.gov, that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC. Our website is www.teekay.com. The information contained on our website is not part of this annual report.

Seasonality of our operations

Our tankers operate in markets that have historically exhibited seasonal variations in tanker demand and, therefore, in spot-charter rates. This seasonality may result in quarter-to-quarter volatility in our results of operations. Tanker markets are typically stronger in the winter months as a result of increased oil consumption in the northern hemisphere but weaker in the summer months as a result of lower oil consumption in the northern hemisphere and refinery maintenance. In addition, unpredictable weather patterns during the winter months tend to disrupt vessel scheduling, which historically has increased oil price volatility and oil trading activities in the winter months. As a result, revenues generated by the tankers in our fleet have historically been weaker during our fiscal quarters ended June 30 and September 30, and stronger in our fiscal quarters ended December 31 and March 31.
B.Business Overview
Subsequent to the sale of the Teekay Gas Business and the disposition and recycling of our FPSO units, we have two primary lines of business: (1) conventional tankers and (2) marine services. We allocate capital and assess performance from the separate perspectives of Teekay Tankers and Teekay Parent, as well as from the perspective of the lines of business.

Teekay Tankers

The primary business of Teekay Tankers is to own and operate crude oil and refined product tankers. Teekay Tankers employs a chartering strategy that seeks to capture upside opportunities in the tanker spot market while using fixed-rate time charters and full service lightering contracts to reduce downside risks. In addition to its core business, Teekay Tankers also provides STS support services, along with its tanker commercial management operations. We believe this improves Teekay Tankers' ability to manage the cyclicality of the tanker market through the less volatile cash flows generated by these operational areas. Historically, the tanker industry has experienced volatility in profitability due to changes in the supply of, and demand for, tanker capacity. Tanker supply and demand are each influenced by several factors beyond our control.

25

Chartering Strategy. Teekay Tankers operates its vessels in the spot market, under time-charter contracts of varying lengths and under FSL contracts, in an effort to maximize cash flow from its vessels based on its outlook for freight rates, oil tanker market conditions and global economic conditions. As of December 31, 2023, a total of 43 of its owned and leased vessels, one vessel owned through a 50/50 joint venture and six time chartered-in vessels operated in the spot market through employment on spot voyage charters. The mix of vessels trading in the spot market, providing lightering services in the U.S. Gulf (or USG), or subject to fixed-rate time charters will change from time to time. Teekay Tankers also may seek to increase or decrease its exposure to the freight market through the use of forward freight agreements or other financial instruments.

Voyage Charters. Tankers operating in the spot market typically are chartered for a single voyage, which may last up to several weeks. Spot market revenues may generate increased profit margins during times when tanker rates are increasing, while tankers operating under fixed-rate time charters generally provide more predictable cash flows without exposure to the variable expenses such as port charges and bunkers. Under a typical voyage charter in the spot market, the shipowner is paid on the basis of moving cargo from a loading port to a discharge port. The shipowner is responsible for paying both vessel operating costs and voyage expenses, and the charterer is responsible for any delay at the loading or discharging ports. Voyage expenses are all expenses attributable to a particular voyage, including any bunker fuel expenses, port fees, cargo loading and unloading expenses, canal tolls, agency fees and commissions. Vessel operating expenses are incurred regardless of particular voyage details and include crewing, repairs and maintenance, insurance, stores, lube oils and communication expenses. When the vessel is “off-hire,” or not available for service, the vessel is unavailable to complete new voyage charters until the off hire is finalized and the vessel again becomes available for service. Under a voyage charter, the shipowner is generally required, among other things, to keep the vessel seaworthy, to crew and maintain the vessel and to comply with applicable regulations.

Time Charters. A time charter is a contract for the use of a vessel for a fixed period of time at a specified daily rate. A customer generally selects a time charter if it wants a dedicated vessel for a period of time, and the customer is commercially responsible for the use of the vessel. Under a typical time charter, the shipowner provides crewing and other services related to the vessel’s operation, the cost of which is included in the daily rate, while the customer is responsible for substantially all of the voyage expenses. When the vessel is "off-hire", or not available for service, the customer generally is not required to pay the hire rate, and the shipowner is responsible for all costs, including the cost of fuel bunkers, unless the customer is responsible for the circumstances giving rise to the lack of availability. A vessel generally will be deemed to be off-hire if there is an occurrence preventing the full working of the vessel. “Hire rate” refers to the basic payment from the charterer for the use of the vessel. Under our time charters, hire is payable monthly in advance in U.S. Dollars. Hire payments may be reduced, or under some time charters the shipowner must pay liquidated damages, if the vessel does not perform to certain of its specifications, such as if the amount of fuel consumed to power the vessel under normal circumstances exceeds a guaranteed amount.

Full Service Lightering. FSL is the process of transferring cargo between vessels, typically of different sizes. Teekay Tankers’ lightering capability leverages access to its Aframax fleet operating in the USG and its offshore lightering support acumen to provide full service lightering. Teekay Tankers’ customers include oil companies and trading companies that are importing or exporting crude oil in the USG to or from larger Suezmax tankers and Very Large Crude Carriers (or VLCCs) which are port restricted due to their size.

Revenue Sharing Agreements

Teekay Tankers and certain third-party vessel owners have entered into RSAs. As of March 1, 2024, a total of 25 of the Suezmax tankers and 24 of the Aframax / LR2 tankers in its fleet, as well as five vessels not in its fleet owned by third parties, were subject to RSAs. The vessels subject to the RSAs are employed and operated in the spot market or pursuant to time charters of less than one year.

The RSAs are designed to spread the costs and risks associated with operation of vessels and to share the net revenues earned by all of the vessels in the RSA, based on the actual earning days each vessel is available and the relative performance capabilities, including speed and bunker consumption of each vessel. The calculation of performance capabilities of each vessel is adjusted on standard intervals based on current data. Teekay Tankers' share of the net revenues includes additional amounts, consisting of a per vessel per day fee and a percentage of the gross revenues related to the vessels owned by third-parties, based on its responsibilities in employing the vessels subject to the RSAs on voyage charters or time charters.

A participating tanker will no longer participate in the applicable RSAs if it becomes subject to a time charter with a term exceeding one year, unless otherwise agreed by all other participants for the applicable RSA, or if the tanker suffers an actual or constructive total loss or is sold or becomes controlled by a person who is not an affiliate of a party to the applicable RSA agreements. An RSA participant may withdraw from the RSA upon at least 90 days' notice and shall cease to participate in the RSA if, among other things, it materially breaches the RSA agreement and fails to resolve the breach within a specified cure period or experiences certain bankruptcy events.

Ship-to-Ship Support Services

An STS support operation is the process of transferring cargo between seagoing ships positioned alongside each other, either stationary or underway. Demand for STS support services is often driven by oil market arbitrages and oil traders optimizing their cost per tonne-mile on cargoes. The provision of ship-to-ship services may be required by Teekay Tankers customers when blending cargos, breaking bulk cargo shipments, and optimizing opportunities when the oil market is in contango, which may result in the use of floating storage as a more cost-effective solution to onshore storage.

26

Industry and Competition

Teekay Tankers competes in the Suezmax (125,000 to 199,999 dwt) and Aframax (85,000 to 124,999 dwt) crude oil tanker markets. Competition in the Aframax and Suezmax markets is affected by the availability of other size vessels that compete in these markets. Suezmax size vessels, LR2 (85,000 to 109,999 dwt) size vessels and Panamax (55,000 to 84,999 dwt) size vessels can compete for many of the same charters for which Aframax tankers compete; Aframax size vessels and VLCCs (200,000 to 319,999 dwt) can compete for many of the same charters for which Suezmax tankers may compete. Because of their large size, VLCCs and Ultra Large Crude Carriers (or ULCCs) (320,000+ dwt) rarely compete directly with Aframax tankers, and ULCCs rarely compete with Suezmax tankers for specific charters. However, because VLCCs and ULCCs 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.

Teekay Tankers also competes in the Long Range 2 (or LR2) product tanker market. Competition in the LR2 product tanker market is affected by the availability of other size vessels that compete in the market. Long Range 1 (or LR1) (55,000-84,999 dwt) size vessels, as well as LR2 size vessels that trade in the Aframax market, can compete for many of the same charters for which LR2 tankers compete.

Seaborne transportation of crude oil and refined petroleum products are provided both by major energy companies (private as well as state-owned) and by independent ship owners. The desire of many major energy companies to outsource all or a portion of their shipping requirements has caused the number of oil tankers owned by energy companies to decrease in the last 20 years. As a result of this trend, independent tanker companies now own or control a large majority of the international tanker fleet.

As of December 31, 2023, Teekay Tankers remain one of three active STS lightering businesses in the USG. Teekay Tankers are one of the two providers in this group who provides a complete full service STS offering, which includes the availability of Aframax tonnage to provide shipment between shore and offshore. USG lightering trade has a foundation of demand due to traditional imports into the U.S. to serve USG Coast refinery demand. Although imports of crude oil into the U.S. have declined as a result of rising domestic crude oil production since 2018, Teekay Tankers believe that the current demand for import lightering has stabilized and is consistent with the dependency which U.S. refiners have on foreign oil that is most economically transported on larger VLCC and Suezmax vessels into the USG. Export related crude accounted for around 70% of total USG lightering operations in 2023. Teekay Tankers expect that the U.S. will continue crude production and exports, which provides a foundation of lightering demand for loading to VLCCs intended for export to Asia and, to a lesser degree, Europe. Although the ports of Houston and Corpus Christi, Texas are now able to accommodate a VLCC at berthside for direct loading, draft restrictions will still require offshore top off STS loading for those vessels to lift their full capacity. Overall port congestion at these locations will create an opportunity for the offshore lightering industry to absorb incremental U.S. crude output which the current deep berths are not able to accommodate efficiently.

The operation of tanker vessels, as well as the seaborne transportation of crude oil and refined petroleum products is a competitive market. There are several large operators of Aframax, Suezmax, and LR2 tonnage that provide these services globally. Competition in both the crude and product tanker markets is primarily based on price, location (for single-voyage or short-term charters), size, age, condition and acceptability of the vessel, oil tanker shipping experience and quality of ship operations, and the size of an operating fleet, with larger fleets allowing for greater vessel substitution, availability and customer service. Aframax and Suezmax tankers are particularly well-suited for short and medium-haul crude oil routes, while LR2 tankers are well-suited for long and medium-haul refined product routes.

Historically, the tanker industry has been cyclical, experiencing volatility in profitability due to changes in oil tanker demand and oil tanker supply. The cyclical nature of the tanker industry causes significant increases or decreases in charter rates earned by operators of oil tankers. Because voyage charters occur in short intervals and are priced on a current, or “spot,” market rate, the spot market is more volatile than time charters. In the past, there have been periods when spot rates declined below the operating cost of the vessels.

Oil Tanker Demand. Demand for oil tankers is a function of several factors, including world oil demand and supply (which affect the amount of crude oil and refined products transported in tankers), and the relative locations of oil production, refining and consumption (which affects the distance over which the oil or refined products are transported).

Oil has been one of the world’s primary energy sources for decades. According to the International Energy Agency (or IEA), global oil consumption decreased substantially in 2020 as a result of demand destruction caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, oil demand recovered substantially in 2021, 2022 and 2023, and is expected to increase further in 2024.
The distance over which crude oil or refined petroleum products are transported is determined by seaborne trading and distribution patterns, which are principally influenced by the relative advantages of the various sources of production and locations of consumption. Seaborne trading patterns are also periodically influenced by geopolitical events, such as wars, hostilities and trade embargoes that divert tankers from normal trading patterns, as well as by inter-regional oil trading activity created by oil supply and demand imbalances. Historically, the level of oil exports from the Middle East has had a strong effect on the crude tanker market due to the relatively long distance between this supply source and typical discharge points. Over the past few years, the growing economies of China and India have increased and diversified their oil imports, resulting in an overall increase in transportation distance for crude tankers. Major consumers in Asia have increased their crude import volumes from longer-haul producers, such as those in the Atlantic Basin.

The limited growth in refinery capacity in developed nations, the largest consumers of oil in recent years, and increasing refinery capacity in the Middle East and parts of Asia where capacity surplus supports exports, have also altered traditional trading patterns and contributed to the overall increase in transportation distance for both crude tankers and product tankers.

Oil Tanker Supply. New Aframax, Suezmax and LR2 tankers are generally expected to have a lifespan of approximately 25 to 30 years, based on estimated hull fatigue life. As of December 31, 2023, the world Aframax crude tanker fleet consisted of 696 vessels, with an additional 32 Aframax crude oil tanker newbuildings on order for delivery through 2027; the world Suezmax crude tanker fleet consisted of 661 vessels, with an additional 67 Suezmax crude oil tanker newbuildings on order for delivery through 2027; and the world LR2 product tanker fleet consisted of 438 vessels, with an additional 115 LR2 product tanker newbuildings on order through 2027. Currently, delivery of a vessel typically occurs within two to three years of ordering.
27


The supply of oil tankers is primarily a function of new vessel deliveries, vessel scrapping and the conversion or loss of tonnage. The level of newbuilding orders is primarily a function of newbuilding prices in relation to current and prospective charter market conditions. Other factors that affect tanker supply are the availability of financing and shipyard capacity. The level of vessel scrapping activity is primarily a function of scrapping prices in relation to current and prospective charter market conditions and operating, repair and survey costs. Industry regulations also affect scrapping levels. Please read “Regulations” below. Demand for dry bulk vessels and floating storage off-take units, to which tankers can be converted, strongly affects the number of tanker conversions.

For many years, there has been a significant and ongoing shift toward quality in vessels and operations, as charterers and regulators increasingly focus on safety and protection of the environment. Since 1990, there has been an increasing emphasis on environmental protection through legislation and regulations such as the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (or OPA 90), IMO regulations and protocols, and classification society procedures that demand higher quality tanker construction, maintenance, repair and operations. We believe that operators with a proven ability to integrate these required safety regulations into their operations have a competitive advantage.

Teekay Parent

In addition to its holdings in Teekay Tankers, Teekay Parent has direct business operations in Australia through which it provides operational and maintenance marine services to the Australian government and third parties, and Teekay Parent also provides marine and corporate services to Teekay Tankers through its various management services companies. Teekay Parent currently has no direct interests in any vessels or FPSO units. Our business strategy contemplates leveraging Teekay Parent’s deep expertise and experience in our industry to pursue suitable investment opportunities in both the shipping sector and, potentially, in new and adjacent markets, which we expect to be dynamic as the world pushes towards greater energy diversification.

Australian Operations

Teekay Parent has been operating in Australia for over 25 years, providing various marine services to the Commonwealth of Australia and other Australian companies; Teekay Parent is one of the largest employers of Australian seafarers. Our marine services business in Australia provides operations, supply, maintenance and engineering support and crewing and training services, primarily under long-term contracts with the Commonwealth of Australia, for 11 Australian government-owned vessels. In addition, we provide crewing services for an FPSO unit in Western Australia.

FPSO Units

In prior years, Teekay Parent directly owned FPSO units, all of which now have been divested by Teekay Parent.

Teekay Parent's Sevan Hummingbird FPSO unit was on a charter contract with Spirit Energy Ltd. (or Spirit Energy) in the North Sea. The contract was based on a fixed charter rate and was subject to early termination options. In February 2022, Spirit Energy provided a formal notice of termination of the FPSO charter contract, and oil production ceased on the Chestnut oil field on March 31, 2022. The Sevan Hummingbird FPSO charter contract was terminated on June 30, 2022 upon completion of the decommissioning activities. In April 2022, Teekay Parent entered into an agreement to sell the Sevan Hummingbird FPSO unit to a third party, which sale was completed on July 1, 2022 for gross proceeds of $13.3 million and Teekay Parent recognized a gain of $13.0 million during the third quarter of 2022. The proceeds from the sale of the Sevan Hummingbird FPSO unit covered the decommissioning costs for the unit, the majority of which were incurred in the second quarter of 2022.

In March 2020, Teekay Parent entered into a new bareboat charter contract with the existing charterer of the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO unit. In April 2021, BP plc (or BP) announced its decision to suspend production from the Foinaven oil fields and permanently remove the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO unit from the site. In August 2022, BP redelivered the FPSO unit to us and upon redelivery, Teekay Parent received a fixed lump sum payment of $11.6 million from BP, which Teekay Parent expects will cover the cost of green recycling the FPSO unit. On October 21, 2022, Teekay Parent delivered the FPSO unit to a EU-approved shipyard for green recycling. Teekay Parent expects to make the remaining scheduled payments related to this recycling by mid-2024.

In the first quarter of 2020, CNR International (U.K.) Limited (or CNRI) provided formal notice to Teekay Parent of its intention to decommission the Banff field and remove Teekay Parent's Petrojarl Banff FPSO unit and the related chartered-in Apollo Spirit floating storage and offtake (or FSO) unit from the field in June 2020. The oil production under the existing contract for the Petrojarl Banff FPSO unit ceased in June 2020, and Teekay Parent commenced decommissioning activities during the second quarter of 2020 and into 2021. In May 2021, Teekay Parent was deemed to have fulfilled its prior decommissioning obligations associated with the Banff field. In May 2021, Teekay Parent delivered the Petrojarl Banff FPSO unit to an EU-approved shipyard for recycling; green-recycling of the unit was completed in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Safety, Management of Ship Operations and Administration

Safety and environmental compliance are our top operational priorities. We operate our vessels in a manner intended to protect the safety and health of our employees, and to minimize the impact on the environment and society. We seek to effectively manage risk in the organization using a three-tiered approach at an operational, management and corporate level, designed to provide a clear line of sight throughout the organization. All of our operational employees receive training in the use of risk tools and the management system. We also have an approved competency management system in place to ensure our seafarers continue their professional development and are competent before being promoted to more senior roles.

We believe in continuous improvement, which has seen our safety and environmental culture develop over a significant time period. Health, Safety and Environmental Program milestones include the roll-out of the Environmental Leadership Program (2005), Safety in Action (2007), Quality Assurance and Training Officer Program (2008), Operational Leadership - The Journey (2010), E-Colours (2014), Significant Incident Potential (2015), Navigation Handbook (2016), Risk Tool Handbook (2017), Safety Management System upgrade (2018), Fleet Training Officer (or FTO) Program (2021) and Cargo Procedures handbook (2022). Electronic record keeping for the IMO's International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL) logs has been trialed on board in 2023. Beginning January 1, 2024, all vessels are using electronic record keeping for MARPOL logs.

In addition, the Operational Leadership - The Journey booklet was revised and relaunched in 2020. The booklet sets out our operational expectations and responsibilities and contains our safety, environmental, and leadership commitments and our Health, Safety, Security and Environmental & Quality Assurance Policy, which is signed by all employees and empowers them to work safely, to live Teekay’s vision, and to look after one another.

We, through certain of our subsidiaries, assist our operating subsidiaries in managing their ship operations. All vessels are operated under our comprehensive and integrated Safety Management System that complies with the International Safety Management Code (or ISM Code), the International Standards Organization’s (or ISO) 9001 for Quality Assurance, ISO 14001 for Environment Management Systems, ISO 45001 for Occupational Health and Safety Management System and the Maritime Labour Convention 2006 (MLC 2006). The management system is certified by Det Norske Veritas (or DNV), the Norwegian classification society. It has also been separately approved by the Australian flag administration. Although certification is valid for five years, compliance with the above-mentioned standards is confirmed on a yearly basis by a rigorous auditing procedure that includes both internal audits as well as external verification audits by DNV and certain flag states.

Since 2010, we have produced a publicly available sustainability report that reflects the efforts, achievements, results and challenges faced by us and our affiliates relating to several key related matters, including emissions, climate change, corporate social responsibility, diversity and health, safety environment and quality. We recognize the significance of ESG considerations and in 2020 set an ESG strategy foundation which is intended to direct our efforts and performance in the years ahead. Our ESG strategy is focused on three broad area: allocating capital to support the global energy transition, operating our existing fleets as safely and efficiently as possible, and further strengthening our ESG profile. Annual targets are set for the organization and are closely monitored. Our sustainability report is available on our website, www.teekay.com. The information contained in our sustainability report and on our website is not part of this Annual Report.

We provide expertise in various functions critical to the operations of our operating subsidiaries. We believe this arrangement affords a safe, efficient and cost-effective operation. Our subsidiaries also provide to us access to human resources, financial and other administrative functions pursuant to administrative services agreements.

Critical ship management functions undertaken by us are:

vessel maintenance (including repairs and dry docking) and certification;
crewing by competent seafarers;
procurement of stores, bunkers and spare parts;
management of emergencies and incidents;
supervision of shipyard and projects during new-building, conversions, lay up and recycling;
29

terminal support;
insurance; and
financial management services.

These functions are supported by onboard and onshore systems for maintenance, inventory, purchasing and budget management.

Risk of Loss and Insurance

The operation of any ocean-going vessel or facility carries an inherent risk of catastrophic marine disasters, death or injury of persons and property losses caused by adverse weather conditions, mechanical failures, human error, war, terrorism, piracy and other circumstances or events. In addition, the transportation and transfer/lightering of crude oil and petroleum products is subject to the risk of spills and to business interruptions due to political circumstances in foreign countries, hostilities, labor strikes, sanctions and boycotts, whether relating to us or any of our joint venture partners, suppliers or customers. The occurrence of any of these events may result in loss of revenues or increased costs.

We carry hull and machinery (marine and war risks) and protection and indemnity insurance coverage, and other liability insurance, to protect against most of the accident-related risks involved in the conduct of our business. Hull and machinery insurance covers loss of or damage to a vessel due to marine perils such as collision, grounding and weather. Protection and indemnity insurance indemnifies us against other liabilities incurred while operating vessels, including injury to our crew or third parties, cargo loss and pollution. The current maximum amount of our coverage for pollution is $1 billion per vessel per incident. We also carry insurance policies covering war risks (including piracy and terrorism) and cyber risks impacting the fleet; however, state-sponsored cyber attacks may be excluded from coverage. None of our vessels are insured against loss of revenues resulting from vessel off-hire time, based on the cost of this insurance compared to our off-hire experience.

We believe that our current insurance coverage is adequate to protect against most of the accident-related risks involved in the conduct of our business and that we maintain appropriate levels of environmental damage and pollution insurance coverage. However, we cannot guarantee that all covered risks are adequately insured against, that any particular claim will be paid or that we will be able to procure adequate insurance coverage at commercially reasonable rates in the future. More stringent environmental regulations have resulted in increased costs for, and may result in the lack of availability of, insurance against risks of environmental damage or pollution. In addition, the cost of protection and indemnity insurance significantly increased during 2022 and 2023 and may continue to increase in 2024. In 2023, the cost of hull and machinery increased due mainly to increased fleet values despite the existence of additional capacity in the market.

In our operations, we use a thorough risk management program that includes, among other things, risk analysis tools, maintenance and assessment programs, a seafarers' competence training program, seafarers' workshops and membership in emergency response organizations.

We have achieved certification under the standards reflected in ISO 9001 for quality assurance, ISO 14001 for environment management systems, ISO 45001:2018, and the IMO’s International Management Code for the Safe Operation of Ships and Pollution Prevention on a fully integrated basis.

Operations Outside of the United States

Because our operations are primarily conducted outside of the United States, we are affected by currency fluctuations, to the extent we do not contract in U.S. dollars, and by changing economic, political and governmental conditions in the countries where we engage in business or where our vessels are registered. Past political conflicts in those 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 certain regions have also been subject to acts of piracy. In addition to tankers, targets of terrorist attacks could include oil pipelines, and offshore oil fields. The escalation of existing or the outbreak of future hostilities or other political instability in regions where we operate could affect our trade patterns, increase insurance costs, increase tanker operational costs and otherwise adversely affect our operations and performance. In addition, tariffs, trade embargoes, and other economic sanctions by the United States or other countries against countries in the Indo-Pacific Basin, Russia or elsewhere as a result of terrorist attacks, Russia's invasion of Ukraine or other actions may limit trading activities with those countries, which could also adversely affect our operations and performance.

Customers

We have derived, and believe that we will continue to derive, a significant portion of our revenues from a limited number of customers. Our customers include major energy and utility companies, major oil traders, large oil consumers and petroleum product producers, government agencies, and various other entities that depend upon marine transportation. No customer accounted for over 10% of our consolidated revenues from continuing operations during 2023, 2022 or 2021. The loss of any significant customer or a substantial decline in the amount of services requested by a significant customer, or the inability of a significant customer to pay for our services, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Flag, Classification, Audits and Inspections

Our vessels are registered with reputable flag states, and the hull and machinery of all of our vessels have been “Classed” by one of the major classification societies and members of International Association of Classification Societies ltd (or IACS): Bureau Veritas (or BV), Lloyd’s Register of Shipping, the American Bureau of Shipping or DNV.

The applicable classification society certifies that the vessel’s design and build conform to the applicable Class rules and meets the requirements of the applicable rules and regulations of the country of registry of the vessel and the international conventions to which that country is a signatory. The classification society also verifies throughout the vessel’s life that it continues to be maintained in accordance with those rules. In order to validate this, the vessels are surveyed by the classification society, in accordance with the classification society rules, which in the case of our vessels follows a comprehensive five-year special survey cycle, renewed every fifth year. During each five-year period, the vessel undergoes annual and intermediate surveys, the scrutiny and intensity of which is primarily dictated by the age of the vessel.
30


In addition to class surveys, the vessel’s flag state also verifies the condition of the vessel during annual flag state inspections, either independently or by additional authorization to class. Also, port state authorities of a vessel’s port of call are authorized under international conventions to undertake regular and spot checks of vessels visiting their jurisdiction.

Processes followed onboard are audited by either the flag state or the classification society acting on behalf of the flag state to ensure that they meet the requirements of the ISM Code. DNV typically carries out this task. We also follow an internal process of internal audits undertaken annually at each office and vessel.

We follow a comprehensive inspections scheme supported by our sea staff, shore-based operational and technical specialists and members of our FTO program. We typically carry out a minimum of two such inspections annually, which helps ensure that:

our vessels and operations adhere to our operating standards;
the structural integrity of the vessel is being maintained;
machinery and equipment are being maintained to give reliable service;
we are optimizing performance in terms of speed and fuel consumption; and
our vessels’ appearance supports our brand and meets customer expectations.

Our customers also often carry out vetting inspections under the Ship Inspection Report Program, which is a significant safety initiative introduced by the Oil Companies International Marine Forum (or OCIMF) to specifically address concerns about sub-standard vessels. The inspection results permit charterers to screen a vessel to ensure that it meets their general and specific risk-based shipping requirements.

We believe that the heightened environmental and quality concerns of insurance underwriters, regulators and charterers will generally lead to greater scrutiny, inspection and safety requirements on all vessels in the oil tanker market and will accelerate the scrapping or phasing out of older vessels throughout the market.

Overall, we believe that our well-maintained and high-quality vessels provide us with a competitive advantage in the current environment of increasing regulation and customer emphasis on quality of service.

Regulations

General

Our business and the operation of our vessels are significantly affected by international conventions and national, state and local laws and regulations in the jurisdictions in which our vessels operate, as well as in the country or countries of their registration. Because these conventions, laws and regulations change frequently, we cannot predict the ultimate cost of compliance or their impact on the resale price or useful life of our vessels. Additional conventions, laws, and regulations may be adopted that could limit our ability to do business or increase the cost of our doing business, and that may materially affect our operations. We are required by various governmental and quasi-governmental agencies to obtain permits, licenses, and certificates for our 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 we own will depend on several factors, we believe that we will be able to continue to obtain all permits, licenses and certificates material to the conduct of our operations.

International Maritime Organization

The IMO is the United Nations’ agency for maritime safety and prevention of pollution. IMO regulations relating to pollution prevention for oil tankers have been adopted by many of the jurisdictions in which our tanker fleet operates. Under IMO regulations and subject to limited exceptions, a tanker must be of double-hull construction as per the requirements set out in these regulations or be of another approved design ensuring the same level of protection against oil pollution. All of our tankers are double-hulled.

Many countries, but not the U.S., have ratified and follow the liability regime adopted by the IMO and set out in the International Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Pollution Damage, 1969, as amended (or CLC). Under this convention, a vessel’s registered owner is strictly liable for pollution damage caused in the territorial waters of a contracting state by the discharge of persistent oil (e.g., crude oil, fuel oil, heavy diesel oil or lubricating oil), subject to certain defenses. The right to limit liability to specified amounts that are periodically revised is forfeited under the CLC when the spill is caused by the owner’s actual fault or when 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 regimes or common law governs, and liability is imposed either based on fault or in a manner similar to the CLC.

IMO regulations also include the International Convention for Safety of Life at Sea (or SOLAS), including amendments to SOLAS implementing the International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (or ISPS), the ISM Code and the International Convention on Load Lines of 1966. SOLAS provides rules for the construction of and the equipment required for commercial vessels and includes regulations for their safe operation. Flag states which have ratified the convention and the treaty generally employ the classification societies, which have incorporated SOLAS requirements into their class rules, to undertake surveys to confirm compliance.

31

SOLAS and other IMO regulations concerning safety, including those relating to treaties on the training of shipboard personnel, lifesaving appliances, radio equipment and the global maritime distress and safety system, apply to our operations. Non-compliance with IMO regulations, including SOLAS, the ISM Code, ISPS and other regulations, may subject us to increased liability or penalties, may lead to decreases in available insurance coverage for affected vessels and may result in the denial of access to or detention in some ports. For example, the USCG and European Union authorities have indicated that vessels not in compliance with the ISM Code will be prohibited from trading in the U.S., and European Union ports. The ISM Code requires vessel operators to obtain a safety management certification for each vessel they manage, evidencing the shipowner’s development and maintenance of an extensive safety management system. Each of the existing vessels in our fleet is currently ISM Code-certified.

Annex VI to the IMO’s International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (or MARPOL) (or Annex VI) sets limits on sulfur oxide (or SOx) and nitrogen oxide (or NOx) emissions from ship exhausts, regulates emissions from ship exhausts, regulates emissions of volatile compounds from cargo tanks, and prohibits emissions of ozone depleting substances, and the incineration of specific substances. Annex VI also includes a world-wide cap on the sulfur content of fuel oil and allows for special “emission control areas” (or ECAs) to be established with more stringent controls on sulfur emissions.

Annex VI provides for a three-tier reduction in NOx emissions from marine diesel engines, with the final tier (or Tier III) to apply to engines installed on vessels constructed on or after January 1, 2016, and which operate in the North American ECA or the U.S. Caribbean Sea ECA as well as ECAs designated in the future by the IMO. Tier III limits are 80% below Tier I and these cannot be achieved without additional means such as Selective Catalytic Reduction (or SCR). In October 2016, the IMO’s Marine Environment Protection Committee (or MEPC) approved the designation of the North Sea (including the English Channel) and the Baltic Sea as ECAs for NOx emissions; these ECAs and the related amendments to Annex VI of MARPOL (with some exceptions) entered into effect on January 1, 2019. This requirement is applicable to new ships constructed on or after January 1, 2021 if they visit the Baltic or the North Sea (including the English Channel) and requires the future trading area of a ship to be assessed at the contract stage. There are exemption provisions to allow ships with only Tier II engines, to navigate in a NOx Tier III ECA if the ship is departing from a shipyard where the ship is newly built or visiting a shipyard for conversion/repair/maintenance without loading/unloading cargoes.

Effective January 1, 2020, Annex VI imposed a global limit for sulfur in fuel oil used on board ships of 0.50% m/m (mass by mass), regardless of whether a ship is operating outside a designated ECA. To comply with this new standard, ships must utilize different fuels containing low or zero sulfur (e.g. LNG, low sulfur heavy fuel oil (or LSHFO), low sulfur marine gas oil (or LSMGO), biofuels or other compliant fuels), or utilize exhaust gas cleaning systems, known as “scrubbers”. Amendments to the information to be included in bunker delivery notes relating to the supply of marine fuel oil to ships fitted with alternative mechanisms to address sulfur emission requirements (e.g. scrubbers) became effective January 1, 2019.

We have implemented procedures to comply with the 2020 sulfur limit. We switched to burning compliant low sulfur fuel before the January 1, 2020 implementation date; however, with the exception of one vessel owned through a 50/50 joint venture, we have not installed any scrubbers on our fleet. Although the IMO has issued ISO 8217:2017 and PAS 23263:19, at present, neither the IMO nor the International Organization for Standardization has implemented globally accepted quality standards for 0.50% m/m fuel oil; however, a new specification for very low sulfur fuel oil is expected to be released in the coming years. The bunker market currently uses the specification for RMG 380 grade fuel oil with a maximum sulfur content of 0.50% m/m as an interim standard. We intend, and where applicable, expect our charterers to procure 0.50% m/m fuel oil from top tier suppliers. However, until such time that a globally accepted quality standard is issued, the quality of 0.50% m/m fuel oil that is supplied to the entire industry (including in respect of our vessels) is inherently uncertain. Low quality or a lack of access to high-quality low sulfur fuel may lead to a disruption in our operations (including mechanical damage to our vessels), which could impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

As of March 1, 2018, amendments to Annex VI impose new requirements on ships of 5,000 gross tonnage and above to collect fuel oil consumption data for ships, as well as certain other data including proxies for transport work. Amendments to MARPOL Annex VI that make the data collection system for fuel oil consumption of ships mandatory were adopted at the 70th session of the MEPC held in October 2016 and entered into force on March 1, 2018. The amendments require operators to update the vessel's Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan (or SEEMP) to include a part II describing the ship-specific methodology that will be used for collecting and measuring data for fuel oil consumption, distance travelled, hours underway, ensuring data quality is maintained and the processes that will be used to report the data. This has been verified as compliant on all of our ships for calendar years 2019 through 2022. A Confirmation of Compliance has been provided by the Ship's Flag State Administration / Recognized Organization on behalf of Flag State and is kept onboard. The data collected for 2023 has been submitted to authorized verifiers for confirmation and this process is expected to be completed by the end of April 2024.

IMO regulations required that as of January 1, 2015, all vessels operating within ECAs worldwide recognized under MARPOL Annex VI must comply with 0.10% sulfur requirements.

As of May 1, 2025, the Mediterranean Sea will effectively become an ECA for sulphur oxides (SOx) under MARPOL Annex VI Regulation 14. This implies that from then on when operating in the Mediterranean Sea, the sulphur content of the fuel used on board shall not exceed 0.10%, unless using an exhaust gas cleaning system (EGCS) ensuring an equivalent SOx emission level.

From July 1, 2024, heavy fuel oil (HFO) may no longer be used or carried as domestic fuel in bunker tanks when in Arctic waters, with some exceptions.

Certain modifications were necessary to optimize operation on LSMGO of equipment originally designed to operate on HFO. Also, LSMGO is more expensive than HFO, and this could impact the cost of operations. We are primarily exposed to increased fuel costs through our spot trading vessels, although our competitors bear a similar cost increase as this is a regulatory item applicable to all vessels. All required vessels in our fleet trading to and within regulated low sulfur areas comply with applicable fuel requirements.

The IMO has issued guidance regarding protecting against acts of piracy off the coast of Somalia. We comply with these guidelines.

32

IMO Guidance for countering acts of piracy and armed robbery is published by the IMO’s Maritime Safety Committee (or MSC). MSC.1/Circ.1339 (Piracy and armed robbery against ships in waters off the coast of Somalia) outlines Best Management Practices for protection against Somalia based Piracy. Specifically, MSC.1/Circ.1339 guides shipowners and ship operators, shipmasters, and crews on preventing and suppressing acts of piracy and armed robbery and was adopted by the IMO through Resolution MSC.324(89). The Best Management Practices (or BMP) is a joint industry publication by BIMCO, ICS, IGP&I Clubs, INTERTANKO and OCIMF. Version 5 is the latest BMP. Our fleet follows the guidance within BMP 5 when transiting in other regions with recognized threat levels for piracy and armed robbery, including West Africa.

The IMO's Ballast Water Management Convention entered into force on September 8, 2017. The convention stipulates two standards for discharged ballast water. The D-1 standard covers ballast water exchange while the D-2 standard covers ballast water treatment. The convention requires the implementation of either the D-1 or D-2 standard. There will be a transitional period from the entry into force to the International Oil Pollution Prevention (or IOPP) renewal survey in which ballast water exchange (reg. D-1) can be employed. Vessels will be required to meet the discharge standard D-2 by installing an approved BWTS.

Besides the IMO convention, ships sailing in U.S. waters are required to employ a type approved BWTS which is compliant with USCG regulations. The USCG has approved several BWTS both nationally and internationally, out of which Sunrui Systems (China) are under Teekay’s approved list for retrofit. We estimate that the installation of an approved BWTS will cost approximately $1.0 million per vessel subject to such installation during 2024.

Cyber-related risks are operational risks that are appropriately assessed and managed as per the safety management requirements of the ISM Code. Cyber risks are required to be appropriately addressed in our safety management system no later than the first annual verification of our Document of Compliance after January 1, 2021. The most recent annual verification audit of our Document of Compliance was completed on July 20, 2023 and confirmed that cyber risks are appropriately addressed in accordance with ISM standards in the Company's safety management system.

The Maritime Labour Convention (or MLC) 2006 was adopted by the International Labour Conference at its 94th (Maritime) Session (2006), establishing minimum working and living conditions for seafarers. The convention entered into force August 20, 2013, with further amendments approved by the International Labour Conference at its 103rd Session (2014). The MLC establishes a single, coherent instrument embodying all up-to-date standards of existing international maritime labor conventions and recommendations, as well as the fundamental principles to be found in other international labor conventions. All of our maritime labor contracts comply with the MLC.

The IMO continues to review and introduce new regulations and as such, it is difficult to predict what additional requirements, if any, may be adopted by the IMO and what effect, if any, such regulations might have on our operations.

European Union (or EU)

The EU has adopted legislation that: bans from European waters manifestly sub-standard vessels (defined as vessels that have been detained twice by EU port authorities in the preceding two years); creates obligations on the part of EU member port states to inspect minimum percentages of vessels using these ports annually; provides for increased surveillance of vessels posing a high risk to maritime safety or the marine environment; and provides the EU with greater authority and control over classification societies, including the ability to seek to suspend or revoke the authority of negligent societies.

Two regulations that are part of the implementation of the Port State Control Directive came into force on January 1, 2011 and introduced a ranking system (published on a public website and updated daily) displaying shipping companies operating in the EU with the worst safety records. The ranking is judged upon the results of the technical inspections carried out on the vessels owned by a particular shipping company. Those shipping companies that have the most positive safety records are rewarded by subjecting them to fewer inspections, while those with the most safety shortcomings or technical failings recorded upon inspection will in turn be subject to a greater frequency of official inspections to their vessels.

The EU has, by way of Directive 2005/35/EC, as amended by Directive 2009/123/EC, created a legal framework for imposing criminal penalties in the event of discharges of oil and other noxious substances from ships sailing in its waters, irrespective of their flag. This relates to discharges of oil or other noxious substances from vessels. Minor discharges shall not automatically be considered as offences, except where repetition leads to deterioration in the quality of the water. The persons responsible may be subject to criminal penalties if they have acted with intent, recklessly or with serious negligence and the act of inciting, aiding and abetting a person to discharge a polluting substance may also lead to criminal penalties.

The EU has adopted a directive requiring the use of low sulfur fuel. Since January 1, 2015, vessels have been required to burn fuel with sulfur content not exceeding 0.10% while within EU member states’ territorial seas, exclusive economic zones and pollution control zones that are included in SOX ECAs. Other jurisdictions have also adopted similar regulations.

All ships above 5,000 gross tonnage calling EU waters are required to comply with EU monitoring, reporting and verification (or MRV) regulations. These regulations came into force on July 1, 2015 and aim to reduce greenhouse gas (or GHG) emissions within the EU. It requires ships carrying out maritime transport activities to or from European Economic Area (or EEA) ports to monitor and report information including verified data on their carbon dioxide (or CO2) emissions from January 1, 2018. Data collection takes place on a per voyage basis and started from January 1, 2018. The reported CO2 emissions, together with additional data (e.g. cargo, energy efficiency parameters), are to be verified by independent verifiers and sent to a central database, managed by the European Maritime Safety Agency (or EMSA). Teekay Corporation signed an agreement with DNV for monitoring, verification and reporting as required by this regulation. We are presently using IMOS/Veslink forms which interface with DNV. Emission reports for the vessels which have carried out EU voyages have been submitted in the THETIS Database. Based on emission reports submitted in THETIS, a document of compliance has been issued and is placed onboard. The data for 2023 has been submitted and is currently under verification by DNV, our authorized verifier. The review is expected to be completed by end of April 2024 for all of our vessels. In addition to the EU-MRV data, from January 1, 2022, we have also started submitting data for UK-MRV which is a new requirement for all vessels calling UK ports and waters.

33

Currently, ships above 5,000 gross tonnage transporting cargo or passengers for commercial use are required to submit a MRV report to the authorities. Under the new EU ETS scope for shipping, they will also be required to surrender their EU allowances for their 2024 CO2 emissions by September 2025. From 2025, the MRV will also include offshore vessels and cargo ships between 400 gross tonnage and 5,000 gross tonnage. However, a review is to be done by the Commission in 2026 to evaluate the need to include these vessels in the ETS by 2027.
For ships under the EU ETS scope, with voyages within EU ports of call, 100% of their emissions will have to be surrendered in the form of EU allowances. For voyages either leaving or arriving in EU ports of call, 50% of their emissions will have to be surrendered in the form of EU allowances. The compliance obligation for EU ETS will be phased in over three years during which the following percentage of verified emissions will have to be surrendered in the form of EU allowances: 40% for 2024; 70% for 2025 and 100% for 2026 and each year thereafter.
Apart from the EU ETS, the EU also plans to introduce the FuelEU Maritime regulation (or FuelEU) into force soon to reduce greenhouse gas emissions (CO2, CH4 and N2O). The regulation is expected to apply from January 1, 2025 to ships over 5,000 gross tonnage which use EEA (EU plus Norway and Iceland) ports. To incentivize the use of renewable and low carbon fuels, FuelEU will impose limits on the greenhouse gas intensity of fuels used onboard and require certain ship types to have zero-emissions at berth from 2030, with stringent financial penalties for non-compliance.

Under the FuelEU regulation, the yearly average GHG intensity of energy used onboard by a ship is not to exceed the 2020 fleet average. Every five years from 2025 to 2050, this reference value will be reduced as follows: by 2% from 2025; by 6% from 2030; by 14.5% from 2035; by 31% from 2040; by 62% from 2045; and by 80% from 2050. The GHG intensity is a measure of the CO2 equivalent emissions per quantum of energy used on board. This will be measured based on reported fuel consumption from EU MRV and the emission factors of the fuels used on a well-to-wake basis.

The EU Ship Recycling Regulation aims to prevent, reduce, and minimize accidents, injuries and other negative effects on human health and the environment when ships are recycled and the hazardous waste they contain is removed. The legislation applies to all ships flying the flag of an EU country and to vessels with non-EU flags that call at an EU port or anchorage. It sets out responsibilities for ship owners and recycling facilities both in the EU and in other countries. Each new ship must have onboard an inventory of the hazardous materials (such as asbestos, lead or mercury) it contains in either its structure or equipment. The use of certain hazardous materials is forbidden. Before a ship is recycled, its owner must provide the company carrying out the work with specific information about the vessel and prepare a ship recycling plan. Recycling may only take place at facilities listed on the EU ‘List of facilities’.

The EU Ship Recycling Regulation generally entered into force on December 31, 2018, with certain provisions applicable from December 31, 2020. Compliance timelines are as follows: EU-flagged newbuildings were required to have onboard a verified Inventory of Hazardous Materials (or IHM) with a Statement of Compliance by December 31, 2018, existing EU-flagged vessels and non-EU-flagged vessels calling at EU ports are required to have onboard a verified IHM with a Statement of Compliance by December 31, 2020. We contracted with a class-approved hazardous materials company, Poly NDT Pte Ltd., to assist in the preparation of an Inventory of Hazardous Materials and with obtaining Statements of Compliance for our vessels. All our vessels were in compliance with IHM regulations as of December 31, 2023. The EU Commission adopted a European list of approved ship recycling facilities, as well as four further decisions dealing with certification and other administrative requirements set out in the regulation. In 2014, the Council Decision 2014/241/EU authorized EU countries having ships flying their flag or registered under their flag to ratify or to accede to the Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships. The Hong Kong Convention is scheduled to enter into force on June 26, 2025.

United States

The U.S., has enacted an extensive regulatory and liability regime for the protection and clean-up of the environment from oil spills, including discharges of oil cargoes, bunker fuels or lubricants, primarily through the OPA 90 and the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (or CERCLA). OPA 90 affects all owners, bareboat charterers, and operators whose vessels trade to the U.S., or its territories or possessions or whose vessels operate in U.S., waters, which include the U.S. territorial sea and the 200-mile exclusive economic zone around the U.S. CERCLA applies to the discharge of “hazardous substances” rather than “oil” and imposes strict joint and several liability upon the owners, operators or bareboat charterers of vessels for clean-up costs and damages arising from discharges of hazardous substances. We believe that petroleum products should not be considered hazardous substances under CERCLA, but additives to oil or lubricants used on other vessels might fall within its scope.

Under OPA 90, vessel owners, operators and bareboat charterers are “responsible parties” and are jointly, severally, and strictly liable (unless the oil spill results solely from the act or omission of a third party, an act of God or an act of war and the responsible party reports the incident and reasonably cooperates with the appropriate authorities) 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: natural resources damages and the related assessment costs; real and personal property damages; net loss of taxes, royalties, rents, fees and other lost revenues; lost profits or impairment of earning capacity due to property or natural resources damage; net cost of public services necessitated by a spill response, such as protection from fire, safety or health hazards; and loss of subsistence use of natural resources.

OPA 90 limits the liability of responsible parties in an amount it periodically updates. The liability limits do not apply if the incident was proximately caused by a violation of applicable U.S. federal safety, construction or operating regulations, including IMO conventions to which the U.S., is a signatory, 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. Liability under CERCLA is also subject to limits unless the incident is caused by gross negligence, willful misconduct, or a violation of certain regulations. We currently maintain for each of our vessels pollution liability coverage in the maximum coverage amount of $1 billion per incident. A catastrophic spill could exceed the coverage available, which could harm our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

Under OPA 90, with limited exceptions, all newly built or converted tankers delivered after January 1, 1994 and operating in U.S. waters must be double-hulled. All of our tankers are double-hulled.

34

OPA 90 also requires owners and operators of vessels to establish and maintain with the USCG evidence of financial responsibility in an amount at least equal to the relevant limitation amount for such vessels under the statute. The USCG has implemented regulations requiring that an owner or operator of a fleet of vessels must demonstrate evidence of financial responsibility in an amount sufficient to cover the vessel in the fleet having the greatest maximum limited liability under OPA 90 and CERCLA. Evidence of financial responsibility may be demonstrated by insurance, surety bond, self-insurance, guaranty, or an alternative method subject to approval by the USCG. Under the self-insurance provisions, the ship owners 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. We have complied with the USCG regulations by using self-insurance for certain vessels and obtaining financial guaranties from a third party for the remaining vessels. If other vessels in our fleet trade into the U.S., in the future, we expect to obtain guaranties from third-party insurers.

OPA 90 and CERCLA permit individual U.S. states to impose their own liability regimes with regard to oil or hazardous substance pollution incidents occurring within their boundaries, and some states have enacted legislation providing for unlimited strict liability for spills. Several coastal states require state-specific evidence of financial responsibility and vessel response plans. We intend to comply with all applicable state regulations in the ports where our vessels call.

Owners or operators of vessels, including tankers operating in U.S. waters, are required to file vessel response plans with the USCG, and their tankers are required to operate in compliance with USCG approved plans. Such response plans must, among other things: 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”; describe crew training and drills; and identify a qualified individual with full authority to implement removal actions.

All our vessels have USCG approved vessel response plans. In addition, we conduct regular oil spill response drills in accordance with the guidelines set out in OPA 90. The USCG has announced it intends to propose similar regulations requiring certain vessels to prepare response plans for the release of hazardous substances. Similarly, we also have California Vessel Contingency Plans onboard vessels which are likely to call ports in the State of California.

OPA 90 and CERCLA do not preclude claimants from seeking damages resulting from the discharge of oil and hazardous substances under other applicable law, including maritime tort law. The application of this doctrine varies by jurisdiction.

The U.S. Clean Water Act (or the Clean Water Act) also prohibits the discharge of oil or hazardous substances in U.S. navigable waters and imposes strict liability in the form of penalties for unauthorized discharges. The Clean Water Act imposes substantial liability for the costs of removal, remediation and damages and complements the remedies available under OPA 90 and CERCLA discussed above.

Our vessels that discharge certain effluents, including ballast water, in U.S. waters must obtain a Clean Water Act permit from the Environmental Protection Agency (or EPA) titled the “Vessel General Permit” (or VGP) and comply with a range of effluent limitations, best management practices, reporting, inspections and other requirements. The current Vessel General Permit incorporates USCG requirements for ballast water exchange and includes specific technology-based requirements for vessels, as well as an implementation schedule to require vessels to meet the ballast water effluent limitations by the first dry docking after January 1, 2016, depending on the vessel size.

On December 4, 2018, the Vessel Incidental Discharge Act (or VIDA) came into effect under the Clean Water Act. The VIDA restructures the way the EPA and the USCG regulate discharges incidental to the normal operation of a vessel when operating as a means of transportation. In most cases, the future standards will be at least as stringent as the existing EPA 2013 VGP requirements and will be technology-based. Two years after the EPA publishes the final Vessel Incidental Discharge National Standards of Performance, the USCG is required to develop corresponding implementation, compliance, and enforcement regulations for those standards, including any requirements governing the design, construction, testing, approval, installation, and use of devices necessary to achieve the EPA standards. Vessels that are constructed after December 1, 2013, are subject to the ballast water numeric effluent limitations. Several U.S. states have added specific requirements to the VGP and, in some cases, may require vessels to install ballast water treatment technology to meet biological performance standards. Every five years the VGP gets reissued, however, the provisions of the 2013 VGP, all management, inspection, monitoring, and reporting requirements remain in effect for vessels operating in U.S., waters until the USCG and EPA finalizes new regulations, in accordance with the VIDA to replace the 2013 VGP. Final rules are not expected for another two to three years.

On October 26, 2020, the EPA’s Notice of Proposed Rulemaking – Vessel Incidental Discharge National Standards of Performance – was published in the Federal Register for public comment. The proposed rule will reduce the environmental impact of discharges, such as ballast water, that are incidental to the normal operation of commercial vessels. When finalized, this new rule will streamline the current patchwork of federal, state, and local requirements that apply to the commercial vessel community and better protect U.S. waters.

Various states in the United States, including California, have implemented additional regulations relating to the environment and operation of vessels. The California Biofouling Management Plan requires vessels to have a Biofouling Management Plan and maintain a Biofouling Record Book. In addition, it requires mandatory biofouling management of the vessel’s wetted surfaces and mandatory biofouling management for vessels that undergo an extended residency period (e.g., remain in the same location for 45 or more days). Finally, it also requires the mandatory submission of a Marine Invasive Species Program Annual Vessel Reporting Form (MISP - AVRF) by the vessel at least 24 hours in advance of the first arrival of each calendar year at a California port. The regulation applied to new vessels delivered after January 1, 2018 and existing vessels after the first regularly scheduled dry dock after January 1, 2018.

China

China previously established ECAs in the Pearl River Delta, Yangtze River Delta and Bohai Sea, which took effect on January 1, 2016. The Hainan ECA took effect on January 1, 2019. From January 1, 2019, all the ECAs have merged, and the scope of Domestic Emission Controls Areas (or DECAs) were extended to 12 nautical miles from the coastline, covering the Chinese mainland territorial coastal areas as well as the Hainan Island territorial coastal waters. From January 1, 2019, all vessels navigating within the Chinese mainland territorial coastal DECAs and at berths are required to use marine fuel with a sulfur content of maximum 0.50% m/m. As per the new regulation, ships can also use alternative methods such as an Exhaust Gas Scrubber, LNG or other clean fuel that reduces the SOx to the same level or lower than the maximum required limits of sulfur when using fossil fuel in the DECA areas or when at berth. All the vessels without an exhaust gas cleaning system entering the emission control area are only permitted to carry and use the compliant fuel oil specified by the new regulation.

From July 1, 2019, vessels engaged on international voyages (except tankers) that are equipped to connect to shore power must use shore power if they berth for more than three hours (or for more than two hours for inland river control areas) in berths with shore supply capacity in the coastal control areas.

From January 1, 2020, all vessels navigating within the Chinese mainland territorial coastal DECAs should use marine fuel with a maximum 0.5% m/m sulfur cap. All the vessels entering China inland waterway emission control areas are to use fuel oil with a sulfur content not exceeding 0.1% m/m. Any vessel using or carrying non-compliant fuel oil due to the non-availability of compliant fuel oil is to submit a fuel oil non-availability report to the China Maritime Safety Administration (or CMSA) of the next arrival port before entering waters under the jurisdiction of China.

From March 1, 2020, all vessels entering waters under the jurisdiction of the People’s Republic of China are prohibited from carrying fuel oil of sulfur content exceeding 0.50% m/m onboard ships. Any vessel carrying non-compliant fuel oil in the waters under the jurisdiction of China is to:

discharge the non-compliant fuel oil; or
as permitted by the CMSA of the calling port, to retain the non-compliant fuel oil onboard with a commitment letter stating it will not be used in waters under the jurisdiction of China.

New Zealand

New Zealand's Craft Risk Management Standard (or CRMS) requirements are based on the IMO's guidelines for the control and management of ships' biofouling to minimize the transfer of invasive aquatic species and monitored by the Biofouling Management Plan retained onboard each vessel.

Marine pests and diseases brought in on vessel hulls (or biofouling) are a threat to New Zealand's marine resources. From May 15, 2018, all vessels arriving in New Zealand need to have a clean hull. Vessels staying up to 20 days and only visiting designated ports (places of first arrival) are allowed a slight amount of biofouling. Vessels staying longer and visiting other places will only be allowed a slime layer and goose barnacles.

Republic of Korea

The Korean Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries announced an air quality control program that defines selected South Korean ports and areas as ECAs. The ECAs cover Korea’s five major port areas: Incheon, Pyeongtaek & Dangjin, Yeosu & Gwangyang, Busan and Ulsan. From September 1, 2020, ships at berth or at anchor in the new Korean ECAs must burn fuel with a maximum sulfur content of 0.10%. Ships must switch to compliant fuel within one hour of mooring/anchoring and burn compliant fuel until not more than one hour before departure. From January 1, 2022, the requirements have been expanded, and the 0.10% sulfur limit will apply at all times while operating within the ECAs.

A Vessel Speed Reduction Program has also been introduced as a part of an air quality control program on a voluntary compliance basis to certain types of ships (crude, chemical and LNG carriers) calling at the ports of Busan, Ulsan, Yeosu, Gwangyang and Incheon.

India

On October 2, 2019, the Government of India urged its citizens and government agencies to take steps towards phasing out single-use plastics (or SUP). As a result, all shipping participants operating in Indian waters are required to contribute to the Indian government’s goal of phasing out SUPs.

The Directorate General of Shipping, India (or DGS) has mandated certain policies as a result, and in order to comply with these required policies, all cargo vessels are required as of January 31, 2020 to prepare a vessel-specific Ship Execution Plan (or SEP) detailing the inventory of all SUP used onboard the vessel and which has not been exempted by the DGS. This SEP will be reviewed to determine the prohibition of SUP on the subject vessel.

Vessels will be allowed to use an additional 10% of SUP items in the SEP that have not been prohibited. Amendments to the finalized SEP are discouraged save for material corrections.

Foreign vessels visiting Indian ports are not allowed to use prohibited items while at a place or port in India. However, these items are allowed to be onboard provided they are stored at identified locations. SEPs are also required to detail the prevention steps that will be implemented during a vessel’s call at an Indian port to prevent unsanctioned usage of SUPs. This includes the preparation and use of a deck and official log entry identifying all SUP items onboard the vessel.

Greenhouse Gas Regulation

In February 2005, the Kyoto Protocol to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (or the Kyoto Protocol) took effect. Pursuant to the Kyoto Protocol, adopting countries are required to implement national programs to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases. In December 2009, more than 27 nations, including the United States, entered into the Copenhagen Accord. The Copenhagen Accord is non-binding but is intended to pave the way for a comprehensive, international treaty on climate change. In December 2015, the Paris Agreement was adopted by a large number of countries at the 21st Session of the Conference of Parties (commonly known as COP 21, a conference of the countries which are parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change; the COP is the highest decision-making authority of this organization). The Paris Agreement, which entered into force on November 4, 2016, deals with greenhouse gas emission reduction measures and targets from 2020 in order to limit the global temperature increases to well below 2˚ Celsius above pre-industrial levels. Although shipping was ultimately not included in the Paris Agreement, it is expected that the adoption of the Paris Agreement may lead to regulatory changes in relation to curbing greenhouse gas emissions from shipping.

In July 2011, the IMO adopted regulations imposing technical and operational measures for the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. These new regulations formed a new chapter in MARPOL Annex VI and became effective on January 1, 2013. The new technical and operational measures include the “Energy Efficiency Design Index” (or the EEDI), which is mandatory for newbuilding vessels, and the “Ship Energy Efficiency Management Plan,” which is mandatory for all vessels. In October 2016, the IMO’s Marine Environment Protection Committee (or MEPC) adopted updated guidelines for the calculation of the EEDI. In October 2014, the IMO’s MEPC agreed in principle to develop a system of data collection regarding fuel consumption of ships. In October 2016, the IMO adopted a mandatory data collection system under which vessels of 5,000 gross tonnages and above are to collect fuel consumption and other data and to report the aggregated data so collected to their flag state at the end of each calendar year. The new requirements entered into force on March 1, 2018.

All vessels are required to submit fuel consumption data to their respective administration/registered organizations for onward submission to the IMO for analysis and to help with decision making on future measures. The amendments require operators to update the vessel's SEEMP to include descriptions of the ship-specific methodology that will be used for collecting and measuring data for fuel oil consumption, distance travelled, hours underway and processes that will be used to report the data, to ensure data quality is maintained.

The vessels in our fleet were verified as compliant before December 31, 2018, with the first data collection period being for the 2019 calendar year. A Confirmation of Compliance was issued by the administration/registered organization, which must be kept onboard the ship. The IMO also approved a roadmap for the development of a comprehensive IMO strategy on the reduction of GHG emissions from ships with an initial strategy adopted on April 13, 2018, and a revised strategy adopted in 2023. Furthermore, the MEPC adopted two sets of amendments to MARPOL Annex VI related to carbon intensity regulations. The MEPC agreed on combining the technical and operational measures with an entry into force date on January 1, 2023. The Energy Efficiency Existing Ships Index (or EEXI) and the Carbon Intensity Index (or CII) have been implemented from January 1, 2023, to benchmark and improve efficiency and reduce emissions from ships. We have already calculated the EEXI and Engine Power Limiter (or EPL) values for our vessels and are in full compliance of the regulation.

The EU has expanded the existing EU emissions trading regime to include emissions of greenhouse gases from vessels, and individual countries in the EU may impose additional requirements. The EU has adopted Regulation (EU) 2015/757 on the monitoring, reporting and verification (or MRV) of CO2 emissions from vessels (or the MRV Regulation), which entered into force on July 1, 2015. The MRV Regulation aims to quantify and reduce CO2 emissions from shipping. It lists the requirements on the MRV of carbon dioxide emissions and requires ship owners and operators to annually monitor, report and verify CO2 emissions for vessels larger than 5,000 gross tonnage calling at any EU and EFTA (Norway and Iceland) port (with a few exceptions, such as fish-catching or fish-processing vessels). Data collection takes place on a per voyage basis and started on January 1, 2018. The reported CO2 emissions, together with additional data, such as cargo and energy efficiency parameters, are to be verified by independent verifiers and sent to a central inspection database hosted by the European Maritime Safety Agency to collate all the data applicable to the EU region. Companies responsible for the operation of large ships using EU ports are required to report their CO2 emissions.

In the U.S., the EPA issued an “endangerment finding” regarding greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act. While this finding in itself does not impose any requirements on our industry, it authorizes the EPA to regulate GHG emissions directly through a rule-making process. In addition, climate change initiatives are being considered in the U.S., Congress and by individual states. Any passage of new climate control legislation or other regulatory initiatives by the IMO, EU, the U.S., or other countries or states where we operate that restrict emissions of greenhouse gases could have a significant financial and operational impact on our business that we cannot predict with certainty at this time.

Many financial institutions that lend to the maritime industry have adopted the Poseidon Principles, which establish a framework for assessing and disclosing the climate alignment of ship finance portfolios. The Poseidon Principles set a benchmark for the banks who fund the maritime sector, which is based on the IMO GHG strategy. The IMO approved an initial GHG strategy in April 2018 to reduce GHG emissions generated from shipping activity, which represents a significant shift in climate ambition for a sector that currently accounts for 2%-3% of global carbon dioxide emissions. As a result, the Poseidon Principles are expected to enable financial institutions to align their ship finance portfolios with responsible environmental behavior and incentivize international shipping's decarbonization.

Vessel Security

The ISPS was adopted by the IMO in December 2002 in the wake of heightened concern over worldwide terrorism and became effective on July 1, 2004. The objective of ISPS is to enhance maritime security by detecting security threats to ships and ports and by requiring the development of security plans and other measures designed to prevent such threats. Each of the existing vessels in our fleet currently complies with the requirements of ISPS and the Maritime Transportation Security Act of 2002 (U.S. specific requirements). Procedures are in place to inform the Maritime Security Council Horn of Africa whenever our vessels are calling in the Indian Ocean Region or the Maritime Domain Awareness for Trade - Gulf of Guinea when calling in the West Coast of Africa. In order to mitigate the security risk, security arrangements are made which include boarding armed security teams (when vessels transit the Gulf of Aden) or arranging for security escort vessels (with 6-8 Nigerian Navy armed guards) from a distance of 195 nautical miles for all Nigerian port calls. In addition, our vessels are also escorted through the Nigerian Exclusive Economic Zone (or EEZ) for calling at some ports of Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea, which are close to the Nigerian EEZ. Our vessels comply with the recommendations of Best Management Practices for West Africa.

C.Organizational Structure
Our organizational structure includes, among others, our interest in Teekay Tankers, which is our publicly-traded subsidiary.

The following chart provides an overview of our organizational structure as at March 1, 2024. Please read Exhibit 8.1 to this Annual Report for a list of our subsidiaries as at March 1, 2024.

Capture.jpg

(1)Teekay Tankers has two classes of shares: Class A common stock and Class B common stock. Teekay Corporation indirectly owns 100% of the Class B shares which have up to five votes each but aggregate voting power capped at 49%. As a result of Teekay Corporation’s ownership of Class A and Class B shares, it holds aggregate voting power of 53.8% as of March 1, 2024.
(2)Teekay Corporation indirectly owns 28.7% of Class A and Class B common stock.

In December 2007, we added Teekay Tankers to our structure. Teekay Tankers is a Marshall Islands corporation formed by us to own our conventional tanker business. As of March 1, 2024, Teekay Tankers’ fleet included 24 double-hull Aframax/LR tankers (including seven chartered-in vessels), 26 double-hull Suezmax tankers (including one chartered-in vessel) and one VLCC, all of which trade either in the spot tanker market or under short- or medium-term, fixed-rate time-charter contracts. Teekay Tankers owns 100% of its fleet, other than a 50% interest in the VLCC and the in-chartered vessels. Prior to October 1, 2018, we provided Teekay Tankers with certain commercial, technical, administrative, and strategic services under a long-term management agreement through a wholly-owned subsidiary. As of October 1, 2018, Teekay Tankers elected to receive commercial and technical management services directly from its wholly-owned subsidiaries, who receive various services from us and our affiliates.

We are party to an omnibus agreement with Seapeak, Altera and related parties governing, among other things, when we, Seapeak and Altera may compete with each other and certain rights of first offer on LNG carriers, oil tankers, shuttle tankers, FSO units and FPSO units.

We are also a party to an agreement with an affiliate of Stonepeak that provides, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, that (i) until January 13, 2024, we and our affiliates would not engage in, acquire or invest in any business that owns, operates or charters any liquefied gas carriers and related time charters, and (ii) until January 13, 2025, we and our affiliates will not engage in, acquire or invest in any business that owns, operates or charters LNG carriers and related time charters.
D.Property, Plant and Equipment
Other than our vessels, we do not have any material property. Please read "Item 4B – Information on the Company – Business Overview - Our Consolidated Fleet" for information about our vessels and “Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 7 – Long-Term Debt" and "Note 8 – Leases" for information about major encumbrances against our vessels.
E.Taxation of the Company
United States Taxation

The following is a discussion of material U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to us. This discussion is based upon provisions of the Code, legislative history, applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations (or Treasury Regulations), judicial authority and administrative interpretations, all as in effect on the date of this Annual Report, and which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect, or are subject to different interpretations. Changes in these authorities may cause the tax consequences to vary substantially from the consequences described below.

Taxation of Operating Income. A significant portion of our gross income will be attributable to the transportation of crude oil and related products. For this purpose, gross income attributable to transportation (or Transportation Income) includes income derived from, or in connection with, the use (or hiring or leasing for use) of a vessel to transport cargo, or the performance of services directly related to the use of any vessel to transport cargo, and thus includes income from time charters, contracts of affreightment, bareboat charters, and voyage charters.
38


Fifty percent (50%) of Transportation Income that either begins or ends, but that does not both begin and end, in the United States (or U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income) is considered to be derived from sources within the United States. Transportation Income that both begins and ends in the United States (or U.S. Source Domestic Transportation Gross Income) is considered to be 100% derived from sources within the United States. Transportation Income exclusively between non-U.S. destinations is considered to be 100% derived from sources outside the United States. Transportation Income derived from sources outside the United States generally is not subject to U.S. federal income tax.

Based on our current operations, and the operations of our subsidiaries, a substantial portion of our Transportation Income is from sources outside the United States and not subject to U.S. federal income tax. Unless the exemption from U.S. taxation under Section 883 of the Code (or the Section 883 Exemption) applies, our U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income generally is subject to U.S. federal income taxation under either the net basis and branch profits taxes or the 4% gross basis tax, each of which is discussed below. Furthermore, certain of our subsidiaries engaged in activities which could give rise to U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income rely on our ability to claim the Section 883 Exemption.

The Section 883 Exemption. In general, the Section 883 Exemption provides that if a non-U.S. corporation satisfies the requirements of Section 883 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations thereunder (or the Section 883 Regulations), it will not be subject to the net basis and branch profits taxes or the 4% gross basis tax described below on its U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income. As discussed below, we believe the Section 883 Exemption will apply and we will not be taxed on our U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income. The Section 883 Exemption does not apply to U.S. Source Domestic Transportation Gross Income.

A non-U.S. corporation will qualify for the Section 883 Exemption if, among other things, it (i) is organized in a jurisdiction outside the United States that grants an exemption from tax to U.S. corporations on international Transportation Gross Income (or an Equivalent Exemption), (ii) meets one of three ownership tests (or Ownership Tests) described in the Section 883 Regulations, and (iii) meets certain substantiation, reporting and other requirements (or the Substantiation Requirements).

We are organized under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands. The U.S. Treasury Department has recognized the Republic of the Marshall Islands as a jurisdiction that grants an Equivalent Exemption. We also believe that we will be able to satisfy the Substantiation Requirements necessary to qualify for the Section 883 Exemption. Consequently, our U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income (including for this purpose, our share of any such income earned by our subsidiaries that have properly elected to be treated as partnerships or disregarded as entities separate from us for U.S. federal income tax purposes) will be exempt from U.S. federal income taxation provided we satisfy one of the Ownership Tests. We believe that we should satisfy one of the Ownership Tests because our stock is primarily and regularly traded on an established securities market in the United States within the meaning of Section 883 of the Code and the Section 883 Regulations. We can give no assurance, however, that changes in the ownership of our stock subsequent to the date of this Annual Report will permit us to continue to qualify for the Section 883 exemption.

Net Basis Tax and Branch Profits Tax. If the Section 883 Exemption does not apply, our U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income may be treated as effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States (or Effectively Connected Income) if we have a fixed place of business in the United States and substantially all of our U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income is attributable to regularly scheduled transportation or, in the case of income derived from bareboat charters, is attributable to a fixed place of business in the United States. Based on our current operations, none of our potential U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income is attributable to regularly scheduled transportation or is derived from bareboat charters attributable to a fixed place of business in the United States. As a result, we do not anticipate that any of our U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income will be treated as Effectively Connected Income. However, there is no assurance that we will not earn income pursuant to regularly scheduled transportation or bareboat charters attributable to a fixed place of business in the United States in the future, which will result in such income being treated as Effectively Connected Income. U.S. Source Domestic Transportation Gross Income generally will be treated as Effectively Connected Income.

Any income we earn that is treated as Effectively Connected Income would be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax (which statutory rate as of the end of 2023 was 21%) and a 30% branch profits tax imposed under Section 884 of the Code. In addition, a branch interest tax could be imposed on certain interest paid, or deemed paid, by us.

On the sale of a vessel that has produced Effectively Connected Income, we generally would be subject to the net basis and branch profits taxes with respect to our gain recognized up to the amount of certain prior deductions for depreciation that reduced Effectively Connected Income. Otherwise, we would not be subject to U.S. federal income tax with respect to gain realized on the sale of a vessel, provided the sale is considered to occur outside of the United States under U.S. federal income tax principles.

The 4% Gross Basis Tax. If the Section 883 Exemption does not apply and we are not subject to the net basis and branch profits taxes described above, we will be subject to a 4% U.S. federal income tax on our subsidiaries' U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income, without benefit of deductions. For 2023, we estimate that, if the Section 883 Exemption and the net basis tax did not apply, the U.S. federal income tax on such U.S. Source International Transportation Gross Income would have been approximately $16.4 million. If the Section 883 Exemption does not apply, the amount of such tax for which we or our subsidiaries may be liable in any year will depend upon the amount of income we earn from voyages into or out of the United States in such year, however, which is not within our complete control.

39

Marshall Islands Taxation

Because we and our subsidiaries do not, and we do not expect to, and assuming that we or they will not, conduct business, operations, or transactions in the Marshall Islands, neither we nor our subsidiaries will be subject to taxation under the laws of the Marshall Islands, nor that distributions by our subsidiaries to us will be subject to any taxes under the laws of the Marshall Islands, other than taxes, fines, or fees due to (i) the incorporation, dissolution, continued existence, merger, domestication (or similar concepts) of legal entities registered in the Republic of the Marshall Islands, (ii) filing certificates (such as certificates of incumbency, merger, or re-domiciliation) with the Marshall Islands registrar, (iii) obtaining certificates of good standing from, or certified copies of documents filed with, the Marshall Islands registrar, (iv) compliance with Marshall Islands law concerning vessel ownership, such as tonnage tax, or (v) non-compliance with economic substance regulations or with requests made by the Marshall Islands Registrar of Corporations relating to our books and records and the books and records of our subsidiaries.

Other Taxation

We and our subsidiaries are subject to taxation in certain non-U.S. jurisdictions because we or our subsidiaries are either organized, or conduct business or operations in such jurisdictions. In other non-U.S. jurisdictions, we and our subsidiaries rely on statutory exemptions from tax. However, we cannot assure that any statutory exemptions from tax on which we or our subsidiaries rely will continue to be available as tax laws in those jurisdictions may change or we or our subsidiaries may enter into new business transactions relating to such jurisdictions, which could affect our and our subsidiaries' tax liability. Please read “Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 17 – Income Tax (Expense) Recovery".

Item 4A.Unresolved Staff Comments
None.
Item 5.Operating and Financial Review and Prospects
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this Annual Report.

In addition, please refer to item 5 in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2022 for our discussion and analysis comparing our financial condition and results of operations from 2022 to 2021.
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview

Teekay Corporation (or Teekay) is a leading provider of international crude oil and other marine transportation services. Teekay currently provides these services directly and through its controlling ownership interest in Teekay Tankers Ltd. (NYSE: TNK) (or Teekay Tankers), one of the world’s largest owners and operators of mid-sized crude oil tankers.

On October 4, 2021, Teekay LNG Partners L.P. (or Teekay LNG Partners) (now known as Seapeak LLC (or Seapeak)), Teekay LNG Partners' general partner, Teekay GP L.L.C. (or Teekay GP), an investment vehicle (or Acquiror) managed by Stonepeak Partners L.P., and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Acquiror (or Merger Sub) entered into an agreement and plan of merger (or the Merger Agreement) by which Stonepeak would acquire Teekay LNG Partners. On January 13, 2022, Teekay announced the closing of the merger (or the Merger) pursuant to the Merger Agreement and related transactions. As part of the Merger and other transactions, Teekay sold all of its ownership interest in Teekay LNG Partners, including approximately 36.0 million Teekay LNG Partners common units, and Teekay GP (equivalent to approximately 1.6 million Teekay LNG Partners common units), for $17.00 per common unit or common unit equivalent in cash. As consideration, Teekay received total gross cash proceeds of approximately $641 million. Furthermore, on January 13, 2022, Teekay transferred certain management services companies to Teekay LNG Partners, that provided, through existing services agreements, comprehensive managerial, operational and administrative services to Teekay LNG Partners, its subsidiaries and certain of its joint ventures. Due to negative working capital in these subsidiaries on the date of purchase, Teekay paid Teekay LNG Partners $4.9 million to assume ownership of them. Concurrently with the closing of the transaction, Teekay and Teekay LNG Partners entered into a transition services agreement whereby each party provides certain services, consisting primarily of corporate services that were previously shared by the entire Teekay organization, to the other party for a mutually agreed reasonable period following closing to allow for the orderly separation of these functions into two standalone operations. Teekay's former general partner interest in Teekay LNG Partners, all of its former common units in Teekay LNG Partners, and certain subsidiaries which collectively contained the shore-based management operations of Teekay LNG Partners and certain of Teekay LNG Partners’ joint ventures are referred to herein as the "Teekay Gas Business".

Following completion of these transactions, Teekay Parent's remaining assets consist of our controlling interest in publicly-listed Teekay Tankers, our marine services business in Australia and a cash and short-term investments position of $287 million as at December 31, 2023. Teekay and its current subsidiaries, other than Teekay Tankers, are referred to herein as "Teekay Parent".

Structure

To understand our financial condition and results of operations, a general understanding of our organizational structure is required. Our organizational structure can be divided into (a) our controlling interests in Teekay Tankers and (b) Teekay Parent. Since we control the voting interests of Teekay Tankers through our ownership of Class A and Class B common shares of Teekay Tankers, we consolidate the results of this subsidiary, and prior to the closing of the sale of the Teekay Gas Business, we controlled Teekay LNG Partners through our 100% ownership of the sole general partner interest of Teekay LNG Partners.

Teekay Tankers

In 2007, we formed Teekay Tankers to expand our oil tanker business. Teekay Tankers holds all of our oil tanker assets, primarily consisting of Suezmax and Aframax / LR2 tankers, and engages in short to medium term fixed-rate charter contracts and spot tanker market trading. Teekay Tankers also owns a ship-to-ship transfer business that performs full service lightering and lightering support operations in the U.S. Gulf and Caribbean. As of December 31, 2023, we had an economic interest of 28.7% and voting power of 53.8% in Teekay Tankers.

Teekay Parent

Teekay Parent has been operating in Australia for over 25 years, providing various marine services to the Commonwealth of Australia and other Australian companies; Teekay Parent is one of the largest employers of Australian seafarers. Our marine services business in Australia provides operations, supply, maintenance and engineering support, and crewing and training services, primarily under long-term contracts with the Commonwealth of Australia for 11 Australian government-owned vessels. In addition, we provide crewing services for a third-party-owned FPSO unit in Western Australia.

Teekay has developed extensive industry experience and industry-leading capabilities over its 50-year history and has significant financial strength and flexibility following the sale of the Teekay Gas Business in January 2022. We believe our strong balance sheet positions us well to pursue future investments both in the broader shipping space as well as other markets as the world pushes for greater energy diversification and a lower environmental footprint, where we can leverage our operating franchise and the proven capabilities of the Teekay platform to create long-term shareholder value.

Our primary financial objective for Teekay Parent is to increase Teekay’s intrinsic value per share, which includes, among other things, increasing the intrinsic value of Teekay Tankers.
IMPORTANT FINANCIAL AND OPERATIONAL TERMS AND CONCEPTS
We use a variety of financial and operational terms and concepts when analyzing our performance. These include the following:

Revenues. Revenues primarily include revenues from voyage charters, time charters, full service lightering and lightering support services and, prior to our disposition of our FPSO units and our sale of the Teekay Gas Business, FPSO contracts and charter contracts accounted under sale-type leases. Revenues are affected by hire rates and the number of days a vessel operates. Revenues are also affected by the mix of our business between voyage charters and time charters and, to a lesser extent, whether our vessels are subject to an RSA. Hire rates for voyage charters are more volatile, as they are typically tied to prevailing market rates at the time of a voyage.

Voyage Expenses. Voyage expenses are all expenses unique to a particular voyage, including any fuel expenses, port fees, cargo loading and unloading expenses, canal tolls, agency fees and commissions. Voyage expenses are typically paid by the shipowner under voyage charters and the customer under time charters, except when the vessel is off-hire during the term of a time charter, in which case, the shipowner pays voyage expenses.

Net Revenues. Net revenues represent income (loss) from vessel operations before vessel operating expenses, time-charter hire expenses, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, gain on sale and (write-down) of assets and restructuring charges. This is a non-GAAP financial measure; for more information about this measure, please read "Item 5 - Operating and Financial Review and Prospects - Non-GAAP Financial Measures".

Vessel Operating Expenses. Under all types of charters and contracts for our vessels, except for bareboat charters, we are responsible for vessel operating expenses, which include crewing, repairs and maintenance, insurance, stores, lube oils and communication expenses. The two largest components of our vessel operating expenses are crew costs and repairs and maintenance. We expect these expenses to increase as our fleet matures and to the extent that it expands. We are taking steps to maintain these expenses at a stable level but expect an increase in line with inflation in respect of crew, material, and maintenance costs. The strengthening or weakening of the U.S. Dollar relative to foreign currencies may result in significant decreases or increases, respectively, in our vessel operating expenses, depending on the currencies in which such expenses are incurred.

Income (Loss) from Vessel Operations. To assist us in evaluating our operations by segment, we analyze the income or loss from vessel operations for each segment, which represents the loss or income we receive from the segment after deducting operating expenses, but prior to interest expense, interest income, realized and unrealized gains (losses) on non-designated derivative instruments, income taxes, foreign currency and other income and losses.

Dry docking. We must periodically dry dock each of our vessels for inspection, repairs and maintenance and any modifications to comply with industry certification or governmental requirements. Generally, we dry dock each of our vessels every two and a half to five years, depending upon the type of vessel and its age. We capitalize a substantial portion of the costs incurred during dry docking and amortize those costs on a straight-line basis from the completion of a dry docking over the estimated useful life of the dry dock. We expense as incurred costs for routine repairs and maintenance performed during dry dockings that do not improve or extend the useful lives of the assets. The number of dry dockings undertaken in a given period and the nature of the work performed determine the level of dry-docking expenditures.

Depreciation and Amortization. Our depreciation and amortization expense typically consists of 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 dry-docking expenditures over the estimated number of years to the next scheduled dry docking, and charges related to the amortization of our intangible assets over the estimated useful life of 10 years.

41

Time-Charter Equivalent (TCE) Rates. Bulk shipping industry freight rates are commonly measured in the shipping industry at the net revenues level in terms of “time-charter equivalent” (or TCE) rates, which represent net revenues divided by revenue days. We calculate TCE rates as net revenue per revenue day before costs to commercially manage our vessels, and off-hire bunker expenses.

Revenue Days. Revenue days are the total number of calendar days our vessels were in our possession during a period, less the total number of off-hire days during the period associated with major repairs or modifications, dry dockings or special or intermediate surveys. Consequently, revenue days represent the total number of days available for the vessel to earn revenue. Idle days, which are days when the vessel is available for the vessel to earn revenue, yet is not employed, are included in revenue days. We use revenue days to explain changes in our net revenues between periods.

Calendar-Ship-Days. Calendar-ship-days are equal to the total number of calendar days that our vessels were in our possession during a period. As a result, we use calendar-ship-days primarily in explaining changes in vessel operating expenses, time-charter hire expenses and depreciation and amortization expense.
ITEMS YOU SHOULD CONSIDER WHEN EVALUATING OUR RESULTS
You should consider the following factors when evaluating our historical financial performance and assessing our future prospects:

Our voyage revenues are affected by cyclicality in the tanker markets. The cyclical nature of the tanker industry causes significant increases or decreases in the revenue we earn from our vessels, particularly those we trade in the spot market.

Tanker rates also fluctuate based on seasonal variations in demand. Tanker markets are typically stronger in the winter months as a result of increased oil consumption in the northern hemisphere but weaker in the summer months as a result of lower oil consumption in the northern hemisphere and increased refinery maintenance. In addition, unpredictable weather patterns during the winter months tend to disrupt vessel scheduling, which historically has increased oil price volatility and oil trading activities in the winter months. As a result, revenues generated by our vessels have historically been weaker during the quarters ended June 30 and September 30, and stronger in the quarters ended December 31 and March 31.

We have retroactively adjusted the presentation of our results of the Teekay Gas Business. On October 4, 2021, we entered into agreements to sell our general partner interest in Teekay LNG Partners (now known as Seapeak LLC), all of our common units in Teekay LNG Partners, and certain subsidiaries which collectively contain the shore-based management operations of the Teekay Gas Business (see "Overview" section above). These transactions closed on January 13, 2022. All revenues and expenses of the Teekay Gas Business prior to the sale and for the periods covered by the consolidated statements of income (loss) in the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report have been aggregated and presented separately from the continuing operations of Teekay. As such, the following sections consisting of Operating Results – Teekay Tankers, Operating Results – Teekay Parent and Other Consolidated Operating Results exclude the results of the Teekay Gas Business.

The conflicts in Israel/Gaza Strip and Ukraine have had and may continue to have material effects on our business, results of operations, or financial condition. On October 7, 2023, Hamas attacked Israel, with Israel then declaring war on Hamas in the Gaza Strip. Since mid-December 2023, Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen have carried out numerous attacks on vessels in the Red Sea area, ostensibly in response to the Israel-Hamas war. As a result of these attacks, many shipping companies have suspended transit through the Red Sea, which has affected trading patterns, rates and expenses. While it is impossible to predict how this situation will evolve in the future, we expect that the rerouting of cargos will lead to additional spot tanker rate volatility in the near term. Escalation or expansion of hostilities, interventions by other groups or nations, the imposition of economic sanctions on any major oil producing nations, disruption of shipping transit in the Straits of Hormuz or other significant trade routes, such as the Red Sea, or similar outcomes could adversely affect the tanker industry, demand for our services, our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

The ongoing conflict in Ukraine has disrupted energy supply chains, caused instability and significant volatility in the global economy and resulted in economic sanctions on Russia by several nations. The ongoing conflict has contributed significantly to related increases in spot tanker rates. Additional sanctions and executive orders have been implemented and authorities are actively investigating compliance with the price cap requirement. This could further impact the trade of crude oil and petroleum products, as well as the supply of Russian oil to the global market and the demand for, and price of, crude oil and petroleum products.

Please read “Item 3 - Key Information - Risk Factors” for additional information about risks to us and our business relating to political instability, terrorist or other attacks, war or international hostilities and the conflicts in Israel and Ukraine.

Our U.S. Gulf lightering business competes with alternative methods of delivering crude oil to ports and exports to offshore for consolidation onto larger vessels, which may limit our earnings in this area of our operations. Our U.S. Gulf lightering business faces competition from alternative methods of delivering crude oil shipments to port and exports to offshore for consolidation onto larger vessels, including the Louisiana Offshore Oil Platform and deep water terminals in Corpus Christi and Houston, Texas which can partially load Very Large Crude Carriers (or VLCCs). While we believe that lightering offers advantages over alternative methods of delivering crude oil to and from U.S. Gulf ports, our lightering revenues may be limited due to the availability of alternative methods.

Vessel operating and other costs are facing industry-wide cost pressures. The shipping industry continues to forecast a shortfall in qualified personnel, which may be further affected by geopolitical events. We will continue to focus on our manning and training strategies to meet future needs. In addition, factors such as client demands for enhanced training and physical equipment, pressure on commodity and raw material prices, an increasing cost of freight, as well as changes in regulatory requirements could also contribute to operating expenditure increases. We continue to take action aimed at improving operational efficiencies, and to temper the effect of inflationary and other price escalations; however, increases to operational costs may occur in the future.

42

The amount and timing of dry dockings and major modifications of our vessels can affect our revenues between periods. Our vessels are normally off-hire when they are being dry docked. We had seven vessels drydock in 2023, compared to nine vessels which dry docked during 2022. During 2022, an additional three vessels were off-hire while completing BWTS installations. The total number of off-hire days relating to dry dockings and BWTS installations during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were 304 and 561, respectively. For our current fleet, there are 15 vessels scheduled to dry dock in 2024.

Our financial results are affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates. Under GAAP, all foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities (including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, advances from affiliates, and long-term debt) are revalued and reported based on the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the period. These foreign currency translation fluctuations are based on the strength of the U.S. Dollar relative mainly to the Australian Dollar, British Pound, Canadian Dollar, Euro and Singaporean Dollar and are included in our results of operations. The translation of all foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities at each reporting date results in unrealized foreign currency exchange gains or losses.

Summary

Our consolidated income from vessels operations, which excludes the Teekay Gas Business, increased to $531.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared $245.8 million in the prior year. The primary reasons for this net increase in income are as follows:

1017

44

an increase of $237.4 million as a result of higher overall average realized spot TCE rates earned by Teekay Tankers' Suezmax tankers and Aframax / LR2 tankers, as well as higher earnings from Teekay Tankers' full service lightering (or FSL) dedicated vessels;

an increase of $28.4 million due to the addition of four Aframax / LR2 chartered-in tankers and one Suezmax chartered-in tanker that were delivered to Teekay Tankers at various times between the third quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023;

an increase of $17.5 million due to certain vessels returning from time charter-out contracts at various times between the second quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023 and earning higher average spot rates in 2023 compared to previous fixed rates; and

an improvement of $6.0 million in net operating losses for Teekay Parent primarily due to the sale of the Teekay Gas Business on January 13, 2022, which included a decrease in general and administrative expenses and restructuring charges, lower operating losses from decommissioning activities for our FPSOs during 2022 and improved results from our ship management services in Australia, partially offset by a gain on sale of the Sevan Hummingbird FPSO in the third quarter of 2022;

partially offset by:

a net decrease of $3.4 million in operating income in Teekay Tankers primarily due to the sale of four Aframax / LR2 tankers and one Suezmax tanker at various times during the first three quarters of 2022 and the fourth quarter of 2023 and higher general and administrative expenses, partially offset by fewer off-hire days and off-hire bunker expenses during 2023.

Details of the changes to our results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to the year ended December 31, 2022 are provided in the following section.

Year Ended December 31, 2023 versus Year Ended December 31, 2022

Teekay Tankers

As at December 31, 2023, Teekay Tankers owned and leased 43 double-hulled oil and product tankers and time chartered-in seven Aframax / Long Range 2 (or LR2) and one Suezmax tanker. Teekay Tankers also owned a 50% interest in one VLCC tanker.

Recent Developments in Teekay Tankers

For additional information about Teekay Tankers, please refer to its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the SEC.

Vessel Sales
During the fourth quarter of 2023, Teekay Tankers agreed to sell two Aframax / LR2 tankers in separate transactions for a combined sales price of $46.5 million. One of these sales was completed in December 2023 when the vessel was delivered to its new owner, which resulted in a gain on sale of $10.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2023. The other vessel was delivered to its new owner in February 2024 and such vessel was classified as Held for Sale as at December 31, 2023.

Time Chartered-in Vessels
In January 2023, an Aframax / LR2 tanker newbuilding related to a time charter-in contract that Teekay Tankers entered into in 2020 was delivered to Teekay Tankers. The time charter-in contract has a seven-year term at a rate of $18,700 per day, with three one-year extension option periods and a purchase option at the end of the second extension option period.

During the first quarter of 2023, two Aframax / LR2 tankers related to time charter-in contracts that were entered into in December 2022 and February 2023, respectively, were delivered to Teekay Tankers and commenced their in-charter terms of two to three years, respectively, at an average rate of $33,450 per day.

In May, July and September 2023, Teekay Tankers extended three chartered-in contracts for three Aframax / LR2 tankers for 12 months each at an average rate of approximately $20,800 per day. An additional 12-month optional period was secured on one of the vessels.

Time Chartered-out Vessels
In February 2023, a one-year time charter-out contract for an Aframax / LR2 tanker that was entered into in December 2022 commenced at a rate of $48,500 per day. This time charter-out contract expired in February 2024, at which time the tanker was delivered back to Teekay Tankers and has subsequently been trading in the spot market.

Vessel Repurchases
In March 2023, Teekay Tankers completed the repurchase of one Suezmax tanker and eight Aframax / LR2 tankers for a total cost of $164.3 million, pursuant to repurchase options under related sale-leaseback arrangements.

In May 2023, Teekay Tankers completed the repurchase of five Suezmax tankers and one Aframax / LR2 tanker for a total cost of $142.8 million, pursuant to repurchase options under related sale-leaseback arrangements.

In September 2023, Teekay Tankers completed the repurchase of two Suezmax tankers and two Aframax / LR2 tankers for a total cost of $57.2 million, pursuant to repurchase options under related sale-leaseback arrangements.

45

In January 2024, Teekay Tankers gave notice to exercise options to acquire eight Suezmax tankers for a total cost of $137.0 million, pursuant to repurchase options under related sale-leaseback arrangements described in "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 8 - Operating Leases and Obligations related to Finance Leases" of this Annual Report. Teekay Tankers expects to complete the repurchase and delivery of these eight vessels in March 2024. Upon redelivery of these eight vessels to Teekay Tankers, the vessels will be unencumbered.

Debt Facility
In May 2023, Teekay Tankers entered into a new secured revolving credit facility agreement (or the 2023 Revolver) for up to $350.0 million to refinance 19 vessels, which vessels include the nine, six and four vessels Teekay Tankers repurchased in March 2023, May 2023 and September 2023, respectively, that were previously subject to sale-leaseback financing arrangements. The 2023 Revolver has a six-year term and an interest rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (or SOFR) plus a margin of 2.0%. The maximum amount of the facility is reduced by semi-annual reductions in revolver capacity.

Cancellation of Revolving Credit Facility
In July 2023, Teekay Tankers provided notice of loan cancellation to the lenders of the previous revolving credit facility (or the 2020 Revolver). The 2020 Revolver, which had a maturity date of December 2024, was cancelled effective July 2023, at which time all 13 collateralized vessels and related security were released and discharged. Upon cancellation of the 2020 Revolver, the amount available to Teekay Tankers from their long-term debt was reduced by $65.7 million.

Cancellation of Working Capital Loan Facility
In September 2023, Teekay Tankers provided notice of cancellation to the lender of their working capital loan facility with Teekay Tankers Chartering Pte. Ltd. (or TTCL), Teekay Tankers' wholly-owned subsidiary. The working capital loan facility, which provided for aggregate borrowings up to $80.0 million, was cancelled in September 2023, and the related security interests in the assets of TTCL were subsequently discharged. Upon cancellation of the working capital loan facility, the amount available to Teekay Tankers from their short-term debt was reduced by $80.0 million.

Tanker Market

Mid-size crude tanker spot rates increased during the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily due to an increase in crude oil exports from key load regions in both OPEC+ and non-OPEC+ countries, including record high crude oil exports from the U.S. Gulf, coupled with seasonal weather delays. Spot tanker rates have remained firm at the start of 2024 as seasonal factors continue to support rates, while instability in the Red Sea region due to attacks on merchant ships has led to an increase in tonne-mile demand as owners and charterers look to reroute vessels on longer haul voyages in order to avoid the affected region.

The outlook for the global economy is improving, with the International Monetary Fund (or IMF) recently increasing its forecast for global GDP growth in 2024 from 2.9% to 3.1%, with further growth of 3.2% expected in 2025. The prospect of a hard landing for the global economy may be receding as inflation has begun to fall across the globe, though downside risks remain. The outlook for global oil demand also remains positive, with the U.S. Energy Information Administration (or EIA) forecasting growth of 1.4 million barrels per day (or mb/d) in 2024 and a further 1.3 mb/d in 2025.

46

The majority of oil supply growth in 2024 is expected to come from non-OPEC+ countries in the Atlantic Basin, led by the United States, Canada, Brazil, and Guyana. Given that oil demand growth is expected to be focused on the Asia-Pacific region in 2024, there could be an increase in Atlantic-to-Pacific crude oil movements, which may be beneficial for tanker tonne-mile demand. However, supply cuts from the OPEC+ group, which were announced in November 2023, and which came into effect in January 2024, may lead to reduced export volumes, particularly from the Middle East, which could weigh on tanker demand in the near term.

The ongoing conflict in Ukraine continues to impact mid-size tanker tonne-miles, with the vast majority of Russian crude oil exports now heading long-haul to India and China, and we expect this situation to persist over the medium term. In addition, growing instability in the Middle East has increasingly impacted shipping markets since December 2023 in the form of attacks on merchant ships in the Red Sea. This is a dynamic situation, but for the time being we expect that many ship owners and charterers will look to avoid the region and seek alternate routes that inevitably involve longer voyages. For many vessels, this means sailing around the Cape of Good Hope, adding a significant number of voyage days and creating additional tanker tonne-mile demand. For example, a Suezmax voyage from Basra, Iraq to the Mediterranean is around 4,000 nautical miles via the Suez Canal compared to around 12,000 nautical miles via the Cape of Good Hope. While it is impossible to predict how this situation will evolve in the future, we expect that the rerouting of cargos may continue to create additional tanker demand in the near term.

Tanker fleet supply fundamentals continue to look positive. This is especially true for 2024, with just 9 million deadweight tons (or mdwt) scheduled to be delivered this year, the lowest annual total since 1997. The tanker orderbook as a whole remains low compared to the 20-year average at around 7% of the existing fleet size while forward orderbook cover at global shipyards stands at 3.5 years, meaning there is little spare shipyard capacity until 2027. The combination of a low orderbook, an aging tanker fleet, and a lack of shipyard capacity until 2027 should lead to very low levels of tanker fleet growth over the next three years, including virtually no fleet growth in 2024.

In summary, we expect that a combination of robust tanker demand growth and positive fleet supply fundamentals will continue to lay the foundation for a strong spot tanker market over the next two to three years. Geopolitical instability in various regions of the world, and the subsequent rerouting of tankers on longer haul voyages, may add to spot tanker rate volatility.

Net Revenues. Net revenues were $890.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $567.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to:

an increase of $217.8 million due to higher overall average realized spot rates earned by Teekay Tankers' Suezmax tankers and Aframax / LR2 tankers in 2023 compared to 2022;

a net increase of $60.3 million due to the addition of four Aframax / LR2 chartered-in tankers and one Suezmax chartered-in tanker that were delivered to Teekay Tankers at various times between the third quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023, partially offset by the sale of four Aframax / LR2 tankers and one Suezmax tanker at various times during the first three quarters of 2022 and the fourth quarter of 2023;

an increase of $19.6 million primarily due to higher average FSL spot and spot voyage charter rates for Teekay Tankers' FSL dedicated vessels in 2023 compared to 2022;

an increase of $17.5 million due to certain vessels returning from time charter-out contracts at various times between the second quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023 and earning higher average spot rates in 2023 compared to previous fixed rates;

an increase of $7.0 million due to fewer off-hire days and off-hire bunker expenses during 2023, primarily related to fewer scheduled dry dockings compared to 2022; and

an increase of $2.4 million due to higher STS support services revenues resulting from an increase in the average rate earned per operation in 2023 compared to 2022;

partially offset by:

a decrease of $1.3 million due to commercial claims from charterers during 2023; and

a decrease of $0.8 million due to lower revenue earned from Teekay Tankers' responsibilities in employing the vessels subject to RSAs in 2023 compared to 2022.

Vessel Operating Expenses. Vessel operating expenses were $149.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $150.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The net decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $4.1 million resulting from the sale of three Aframax / LR2 tankers and one Suezmax tanker at various times during the first three quarters of 2022, as well as a decrease of $1.1 million resulting from lower crewing-related expenditures in 2023, partially offset by an increase of $2.3 million related to higher repair and maintenance costs on certain tankers, an increase of $0.7 million related to higher expenditures for ship management, as well as an increase of $0.7 million resulting from a higher volume of STS support service activities in 2023.

Time-charter Hire Expenses. Time-charter hire expenses were $70.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $27.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The net increase was primarily due to an increase of $43.6 million resulting from the addition of four Aframax / LR2 chartered-in tankers and one Suezmax chartered-in tanker that were delivered to Teekay Tankers at various times between the third quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023, as well as an increase of $1.3 million resulting from an increase in daily hire rates for two Aframax / LR2 tankers after extending their chartered-in contracts during the first three quarters of 2023, partially offset by a decrease of $1.1 million resulting from more off-hire days for a chartered-in tanker due to its dry dock during 2023.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization was $97.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to $99.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to the sale of three Aframax / LR2 tankers and one Suezmax tanker during first three quarters of 2022.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses were $45.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $41.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher expenditures related to compensation, benefits and payroll taxes, as well as higher general corporate expenditures during the year ended December 31, 2023.

Gain on sale and (write-down) of assets. The gain on sale and (write-down) of assets of $10.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 was related to the sale of one Aframax / LR2 tanker in December 2023.

The gain on the sale and (write-down) of assets of $8.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 was related to:

the sale of three Aframax / LR2 tankers and one Suezmax tanker in 2022, which resulted in an aggregate gain of $9.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2022, and a reversal of a previous write-down of one of these tankers, which was made to reflect the tanker's agreed sales price and resulted in a gain of $0.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2022;

partially offset by:

the impairment recorded on two of Teekay Tankers' operating lease right-of-use assets resulting from a decline in the prevailing short-term time-charter rates, which resulted in a write-down of $1.1 million during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Restructuring Charges. Restructuring charges of $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 were primarily related to organizational changes made to Teekay Tankers' commercial and technical operations teams. Restructuring charges of $1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, were primarily related to organizational changes made as a result of Teekay's divestments related to Teekay LNG Partners L.P. (now known as Seapeak LLC) in January 2022, as described in "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 13 - Related Party Transactions" of this Annual Report.

Equity Income. Equity income was $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher spot rates realized by Teekay Tankers' 50% ownership interest in a VLCC, which has been trading in a third-party managed VLCC pooling arrangement, as well as fewer off-hire days during 2023 resulting from the dry dock of the VLCC during 2022.

Teekay Parent

Teekay Parent's Marine Services and Other segment contains Teekay Parent's Australian operations, which provide operational and maintenance marine services in Australia to the Department of Defense and to another third-party, and Teekay Parent's corporate general and administrative expenses. As at December 31, 2023, Teekay Parent had no direct interests in any vessels or FPSO units. Teekay Parent’s business of providing marine and corporate services to Seapeak's equity-accounted joint ventures is not included in the following table and has been presented as part of the section “Operating Results – Teekay Gas Business”.

Recent Developments in Teekay Parent

As described above in the “Overview” section, Teekay sold all of its interest in Teekay LNG Partners (now known as Seapeak LLC) in connection with the acquisition of Teekay LNG Partners by an affiliate of Stonepeak, on January 13, 2022.

In April 2021, BP p.l.c. announced its decision to suspend production from the Foinaven oil fields and permanently remove the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO unit from the site. In August 2022, BP redelivered the FPSO unit to us and upon redelivery, Teekay Parent received a fixed lump sum payment of $11.6 million from BP, which we expect will cover the cost of green recycling the FPSO unit. On October 21, 2022, Teekay Parent delivered the FPSO unit to an EU-approved shipyard for green recycling. The green recycling of the FPSO unit is expected to be completed by mid-2024.

In February 2022, Spirit Energy, the charterer of the Sevan Hummingbird FPSO unit, provided a formal notice of termination of the FPSO charter contract, and oil production ceased on the Chestnut oil field on March 31, 2022. The FPSO charter contract was terminated on June 30, 2022 upon completion of the decommissioning activities. In April 2022, Teekay Parent entered into an agreement to sell the Sevan Hummingbird FPSO unit to a third party, which sale was completed on July 1, 2022, for gross proceeds of $13.3 million and Teekay Parent recognized a gain of $13.0 million during the third quarter of 2022. The proceeds from the sale of the Sevan Hummingbird FPSO unit covered the decommissioning costs for the unit, the majority of which were incurred in the second quarter of 2022.

Loss from vessel operations for Teekay Parent’s Marine Services and Other segment was $4.2 million for 2023, compared $10.2 million for 2022. The decrease in loss from vessel operations is primarily a result of:

a decrease of $8.6 million as a result of the sale of the Teekay Gas Business on January 13, 2022, which included a decrease in general and administrative expenses and restructuring charges in 2023;

a net decrease of $5.2 million related to the Sevan Hummingbird FPSO due to final decommissioning activities and restructuring costs in 2022, partially offset by a decrease in revenue in 2023 compared to 2022 due to the FPSO unit ceasing operations on March 31, 2022;

a decrease of $3.6 million due to decommissioning activities for the Petrojarl Foinaven and Petrojarl Banff FPSO units in 2022; and

a decrease of $1.6 million due to improved results from our ship management services in Australia in 2023 compared to 2022;

partially offset by:

an increase of $13.0 million due to a gain on sale of the Sevan Hummingbird FPSO unit in July 2022.

Other Consolidated Operating Results

The following table compares our other consolidated operating results for 2023 and 2022, excluding the other operating results of the Teekay Gas Business which have been presented separately in “Operating Results – Teekay Gas Business”:
 Year Ended December 31,
(in thousands of U.S. dollars, except percentages)20232022
Interest expense(28,009)(38,580)
Interest income24,128 6,689 
Realized and unrealized gains on non-designated derivative instruments449 4,817 
Loss on bond repurchases— (12,694)
Other - net(2,140)4,811 
Income tax expense(12,162)(1,417)

Interest expense. Interest expense decreased to $28.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $38.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to:

a decrease of $8.0 million relating to Teekay Tankers due to its repurchase of 11 Aframax / LR2 tankers and eight Suezmax tankers during the first three quarters of 2023, all of which were previously held under sale-leaseback arrangements, as well as the repayment in full of Teekay Tankers' previous term loan during the second half of 2022, partially offset by a higher average benchmark interest rate under sale-leaseback financing arrangements during the year ended December 31, 2023; and

a decrease of $2.5 million relating to Teekay Parent, primarily due to the repurchase of and the redemption in full of Convertible Notes during 2022 and January 2023, and due to the redemption in full of Teekay's 9.25% senior secured notes (or the 2022 Notes) in January 2022 (see "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 7 – Long-Term Debt" for further details).

49

Interest income. Interest income increased to $24.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $6.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to higher cash and short-term investment balances with higher applicable interest rates during the year ended December 31, 2023.

Realized and unrealized gains on derivative instruments. Realized and unrealized gains on derivative instruments were $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to a gain of $4.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022.

In March 2020, Teekay Tankers entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $50.0 million and a fixed rate of approximately 0.8%, which swap agreement was scheduled to mature in December 2024. In June 2023, Teekay Tankers terminated the interest rate swap agreement. Teekay Tankers realized a gain under the swap agreement of $4.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $0.5 million during the prior year, primarily due to the termination of the interest rate swap agreement in 2023 and a higher average benchmark interest rates for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Teekay Tankers recognized unrealized losses of $3.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to an unrealized gain $3.2 million during the prior year under the interest rate swap agreement, primarily due to the termination of the interest rate swap agreement in 2023.

From time to time, Teekay Tankers uses forward freight agreements (or FFAs) to increase or decrease its exposure to spot tanker rates, within defined limits. Teekay Tankers recognized a realized gain of $1.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2022, under the FFAs.

Teekay Parent recognized no gains or losses from foreign currency forward contracts in 2023, compared to realized losses of $0.4 million in 2022.

Loss on bond repurchases. Losses on bond repurchases of $12.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, related to the redemption in full of Teekay Parent's 2022 Notes in January 2022 and the repurchase of a majority of Teekay Parent's Convertible Notes (see "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 7 – Long-Term Debt" for further details).

Other - net. Other expense was $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to other income of $4.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The year-to-year change was due to a non-cash loss on disposal of Teekay Parent's defined benefit pension plans in Australia during the year ended December 31, 2023, premiums paid by Teekay Tankers during 2023 related to the repurchase of 19 tankers which were previously under sale-leaseback arrangements, net reductions in the asset retirement obligation (or ARO) liability related to the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO unit recognized during the year ended December 31, 2022, and lower foreign exchange gains during 2023, partially offset by an amount recognized in relation to the resolution of a legal claim during 2023 and a payment made in relation to the settlement of a legal claim during 2022.

Income tax expense. Income tax expense was $12.2 million in 2023 compared to $1.4 million in 2022. The increase was primarily due to changes in vessel trading activities and higher gross revenues and net income in the year ended December 31, 2023, as well as lower tax recoveries during 2023 related to the expiry of the limitation period in certain jurisdictions and higher taxes during 2023 due to prior year tax adjustments, partially offset by the net change resulting from the reversal of certain freight tax liabilities during 2023 and 2022 based on an assessment of Teekay Tankers' tax position for a jurisdiction.

Operating Results - Teekay Gas Business

As previously discussed in the "Overview" section above, Teekay sold its interest in the Teekay Gas Business effective January 13, 2022.

(1)General and administrative costs for the Teekay Gas Business discontinued operations do not include allocations of costs from shared corporate units. As a result, the general and administrative expenses of the Teekay Gas Business discontinued operations do not represent a fully-built-up cost, but rather only the direct costs incurred by Seapeak and the costs associated with functions that were fully-dedicated to providing services to Seapeak and certain of its joint ventures. As such, Seapeak’s share of the costs incurred by the corporate units in Teekay Parent is not included in the discontinued operations results.

Results from the Teekay Gas Business decreased in the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to the same period in prior year, as a result of the sale of the Teekay Gas Business on January 13, 2022, as well as a loss on deconsolidation recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2022. Included in the net (income) loss attributable to non-controlling interests, discontinued operations on the consolidated statements of income (loss) was $84.8 million of Deferred Dropdown Gains as described in "Item 1 - Financial Statements: Note 21 - Deconsolidation of Teekay Gas Business and Discontinued Operations". Together the Deferred Dropdown Gains and the loss on deconsolidation of $58.7 million, resulted in a net gain of $26.2 million during 2022 that was recognized in the net income attributable to our shareholders on sale of the Teekay Gas Business.

Year Ended December 31, 2022 versus Year Ended December 31, 2021

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Sources and Uses of Capital

Teekay Parent

As of the date of this filing, Teekay Parent primarily generates cash flows from managing vessels for the Australian government, from providing management services to Teekay Tankers and certain third parties, from dividends received from Teekay Tankers and from interest income related to our short-term investments and cash and cash equivalent balances. Teekay Parent's other potential sources of funds are borrowings under credit facilities and proceeds from issuances of debt or equity securities. As at December 31, 2023, Teekay Parent had no remaining debt securities outstanding, as described in "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 7 – Long-Term Debt".

Teekay Parent's primary uses of cash include the payment of operating expenses, funding general and administrative expenses and other working capital requirements, and the payment of remaining recycling costs associated with the Petrojarl Foinaven FPSO unit, which was disposed of in 2022. As at December 31, 2023, Teekay Parent held $287.4 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, which are comprised of bank deposits and short-term debt securities issued by the United States government.

In August 2022, Teekay announced that its Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $30 million of Teekay common shares in the open market and other transactions. Following the completion of this share repurchase program in March 2023, Teekay's Board of Directors authorized two additional share repurchase programs in March 2023 and June 2023 for the repurchase of up to an additional $30 million and $25 million, respectively, of Teekay common shares in the open market, through privately-negotiated transactions and by any other means permitted under the rules of the SEC.

51

During the year ended December 31, 2023, Teekay Parent repurchased approximately 8.9 million Teekay common shares for $50.7 million, including transaction costs, under these share repurchase programs. As at December 31, 2023, the total remaining share repurchase authorization was $19.2 million.

Teekay Tankers

Teekay Tankers generates cash flows primarily from chartering out its vessels. Teekay Tankers employs a chartering strategy that seeks to capture upside opportunities in the tanker spot market while using fixed-rate time charters and FSL contracts to reduce potential downside risks. Teekay Tankers' short-term charters and spot market tanker operations contribute to the volatility of its net operating cash flow, and thus may impact its ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet its short-term liquidity needs. 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 spot markets historically have exhibited seasonal variations in charter rates. Tanker spot 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. There can be other factors that override typical seasonality, such as was the case during the year ended December 31, 2022, when global oil trade routes and tonne-mile demand were impacted by Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which commenced in late February 2022.

While exposure to the volatile spot market is the largest potential cause for changes in Teekay Tankers' net operating cash flow from period to period, variability in its net operating cash flow also reflects changes in interest rates, fluctuations in working capital balances, the timing and the amount of dry-docking expenditures, repairs and maintenance activities, the average number of vessels in service, including chartered-in vessels, and vessel acquisitions or vessel dispositions, among other factors. The number of vessel dry dockings varies each period depending on vessel maintenance schedules.

Teekay Tankers' primary sources of cash are long-term bank borrowings, lease or equity financings, and to a lesser extent, the proceeds from the sales of its older vessels.

Teekay Tankers' obligations related to finance leases are described in "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 8 – Leases" and its 2023 Revolver is described in "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 7 – Long-Term Debt" of this report. Teekay Tankers' 2023 Revolver contains covenants and other restrictions that we believe are typical of debt financing collateralized by vessels, including those that restrict the relevant subsidiaries from: incurring or guaranteeing additional indebtedness; making certain negative pledges or granting certain liens; and selling, transferring, assigning or conveying assets.

Teekay Tankers' 2023 Revolver and obligations related to finance leases require it to maintain certain financial covenants. The terms of and compliance with these financial covenants are described in further detail in "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 7 – Long-Term Debt" and in "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 8 – Leases" included in this Annual Report. If Teekay Tankers does not meet these financial or other covenants, the lender may declare Teekay Tankers' obligations under the agreements immediately due and payable and terminate any further loan commitments, which would significantly affect Teekay Tankers' short-term liquidity requirements. As at December 31, 2023, Teekay Tankers was in compliance with all covenants under its revolving credit facility and obligations related to finance leases.

Teekay Tankers' 2023 Revolver and obligations related to finance leases require it to make interest payments based on SOFR plus a margin. Significant increases in interest rates could adversely affect Teekay Tankers' results of operations and its ability to service its debt. From time to time, Teekay Tankers uses interest rate swaps to reduce its exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates. As at December 31, 2023 Teekay Tankers was not committed to any interest rate swap agreements. The extent of Teekay Tankers' exposure to changes in interest rates is described in further detail in "Item 11 - Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” of this Annual Report.

Teekay Tankers' primary uses of cash include the payment of operating expenses, dry-docking expenditures, costs associated with modifications to its vessels, debt servicing costs, scheduled repayments of long-term debt, scheduled repayments of its obligations related to finance leases, as well as funding its other working capital requirements, cash dividend payments on Teekay Tankers' common shares, repurchases of Teekay Tankers' common shares under its repurchase program, as well as providing funding to its equity-accounted joint venture from time to time. In addition, Teekay Tankers uses cash to acquire new or second-hand vessels. The timing of the acquisition of vessels depends on a number of factors, including newbuilding prices, second-hand vessel values, the age, condition and size of Teekay Tankers' existing fleet, the commercial outlook for its vessels and other considerations. As such, vessel acquisition activity may vary significantly from year to year.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods presented:
(in thousands of U.S. Dollars)Year Ended December 31,
 20232022
Net operating cash flows - continuing operations633,456 172,288 
Net operating cash flows - discontinued operations— 26,866 
Net financing cash flows - continuing operations(524,050)(456,948)
Net investing cash flows - continuing operations 54,659 308,980 

Operating Cash Flows - Continuing Operations

Our consolidated net cash flow from operating activities - continuing operations fluctuates primarily as a result of changes in vessel utilization and TCE rates, changes in interest rates, fluctuations in working capital balances, the timing and amount of dry-docking expenditures, repairs and maintenance activities, vessel additions and dispositions, and foreign currency rates. Teekay Tankers' exposure to the spot tanker market has contributed significantly to fluctuations in operating cash flows historically as a result of highly cyclical spot tanker rates.
52


Consolidated net cash flow from operating activities increased to $633.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, from $172.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. The increase to operating cash flows was primarily due to a $294.9 million increase in income from operations (before depreciation and amortization, and gain on sale of assets). For a further discussion of changes in income from operations from our businesses, please read “Item 5 – Operating and Financial Review and Prospects: Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Recent Developments and Results of Operations". In addition, there was an increase of $154.0 million in cash flows related to changes in net working capital compared to 2022 (see "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 19 - Supplemental Cash Flow Information" for a breakdown of these changes related to Accounts Receivable, Prepaid Expenses & Other, Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities & Other). Other changes in cash flow from operating activities include a $31.6 million decrease in net interest expense compared to 2022, partially offset by a $10.5 million decrease in direct financing lease payments received in 2023 compared to 2022, and an increase in asset retirement obligation and dry docking expenditures in 2023 of $4.9 million.

Financing Cash Flows - Continuing Operations

We use our credit facilities to partially finance capital expenditures. We actively manage the maturity profile of our outstanding financing agreements. Our net proceeds and prepayments of long-term debt, net of issuing costs, were $4.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2023, compared to $614.7 million in 2022, primarily due to the redemption of the 2022 Notes in January 2022, the repurchase and redemption of the Convertible Notes during 2022 and January 2023 and a prepayment on Teekay Tankers' revolving credit facility during the year ended December 31, 2023. In addition, scheduled debt repayments decreased by $35.7 million in 2023 compared to 2022.

During 2023, Teekay Tankers made prepayments of $364.2 million on its obligations related to finance leases, compared to $288.1 million in proceeds received from sale-leaseback transactions in 2022.

During 2023, Teekay Parent repurchased approximately 8.9 million shares of its common stock for $50.7 million, or an average price of $5.69 per share.

During 2023, Teekay Tankers paid dividends to non-controlling interests of $42.7 million.

During 2023, there was a net drawdown of $nil on Teekay Tankers' working capital loan facility (which was voluntarily cancelled in September 2023), compared to net repayments of $25.0 million in 2022.
