The accompanying interim financial information of Seaspan Corporation (the “Company” or “Seaspan”) has been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), on a basis consistent with those followed in the December 31, 2020 audited annual consolidated financial statements of Seaspan. The accompanying interim financial information is unaudited and reflects all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods presented. The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the disclosures required under U.S. GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the December 31, 2020 annual consolidated financial statements of Seaspan filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on an Atlas Corp. Form 6-K.

The outbreak of COVID-19 has had a negative effect on the global economy and has adversely impacted the containership leasing industry. During the initial onset of COVID-19 in the first half of 2020, the containership industry experienced decreased container trade and reduced charter rates. Since then, there have been significant improvements in charter rates and decreases in idle capacity as the industry recovers. The duration and full effects of this global health emergency and related disruptions are uncertain, although expected to continue for the near future as the success and timing of COVID-19 vaccination programs and containment strategies are also uncertain. As a result, this increases the uncertainties and the degree of judgment associated with many of the Company’s estimates and assumptions. As events develop and additional information becomes available, the Company’s estimates may change in future periods.

 

(b)

Recent accounting pronouncements:

Discontinuation of LIBOR

In March 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)”, which provides optional relief for the discontinuation of LIBOR resulting from rate reform. Contract terms that are modified due to the replacement of a reference rate are not required to be remeasured or reassessed under its relevant US GAAP Topic. The election is available by Topic. This guidance is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022 and may be applied from the beginning of an interim period that includes the issuance date of the ASU. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance.

Debt with conversion and other options

In August 2020, FASB issued ASU 2020-06, “Debt – Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20)”, which simplifies the accounting for convertible debt instruments by reducing the number of accounting models and circumstances when embedded conversion features are separately recognized. The guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this guidance.

For all of the Company’s term loan credit facilities, except for one, interest is calculated on three month or six month LIBOR plus a margin per annum, dependent on the interest period selected by the Company. The three month and six month average LIBOR was 0.2% and 0.2%, respectively (December 31, 2020 – 0.2% and 0.3%, respectively) and the margins ranged between 0.4% and 4.3% as at March 31, 2021 (December 31, 2020 – 0.4% and 4.3%).

 

For one of our term loan credit facilities with a total principal outstanding of $36,777,000 (December 31, 2020 - $39,970,000), interest is calculated based on the Export-Import Bank of Korea (“KEXIM”) rate plus 0.7% per annum.

 

The weighted average rate of interest, including the applicable margin, was 2.3% at March 31, 2021 (December 31, 2020 – 2.3%) for term loan credit facilities. Interest payments are made in monthly, quarterly or semi-annual payments.

Credit facilities - other (continued):

As at March 31, 2021, $1,520,460,000 principal amount of indebtedness under the Company’s term loan and revolving credit facilities was secured by a portfolio of 48 vessels, the composition of which can be changed and is subject to a borrowing base and portfolio concentration requirements, as well as compliance with financial covenants and certain negative covenants.

The Company may prepay certain amounts outstanding without penalty, other than breakage costs in certain circumstances.  A prepayment may be required as a result of certain events, including without limitation the sale or loss of a vessel, a termination or expiration of a charter (and the inability to enter into a replacement charter acceptable to lenders within a prescribed period of time). The amount that must be prepaid may be calculated based on the loan to market value.  In these circumstances, valuations of the Company’s vessels are conducted on a “without charter” basis as required under the credit facility agreement.

Each credit facility contains a mix of financial covenants requiring the Company to maintain minimum liquidity, tangible net worth, interest and principal coverage ratios and debt to assets ratios, as defined.

Certain facilities are guaranteed by an intermediate parent entity, in which case the parent entity must meet certain consolidated financial covenants under those term loan facilities including maintaining certain minimum tangible net worth, cash requirements and debt-to-asset ratios.  

Some of the facilities also have an interest and principal coverage ratio, debt service coverage and vessel value requirement for the subsidiary borrower. The Company was in compliance with these covenants at March 31, 2021.

NOK Bonds:

In February 2021, the Company issued $200,000,000 of senior unsecured sustainability-linked bonds in the Nordic bond market (“NOK Bonds”). The bonds will mature in February 2024 and bear interest at 6.5% per annum. The bond will be redeemed at 100.5% of the initial principal if certain sustainability performance targets are not met during the term.

14.     Financial instruments:

 

(a)

Fair value:

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values because of their short term to maturity.

As of March 31, 2021, the fair value of the Company’s revolving credit facilities and term loans excluding deferred financing fees was $2,513,206,000 (December 31, 2020 - $2,599,197,000) and the carrying value was $2,557,150,000 (December 31, 2020 - $2,638,522,000). As of March 31, 2021, the fair value of the Company’s operating lease liabilities was $795,089,000 (December 31, 2020 - $825,072,000) and the carrying value was $797,203,000 (December 31, 2020 - $827,214,000). As of March 31, 2021, the fair value of the Company’s other financing arrangements, excluding deferred financing fees, was $879,246,000 (December 31, 2020 - $891,710,000) and the carrying value was $897,068,000 (December 31, 2020 - $879,468,000). The fair value of the revolving and term loans, operating lease liabilities and other financing arrangements, excluding deferred financing fees, are estimated based on expected principal repayments and interest, discounted by relevant forward rates plus a margin appropriate to the credit risk of the Company. Therefore, the Company has categorized the fair value of these financial instruments as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

As of March 31, 2021, the fair value of the Company’s senior unsecured notes was $87,887,000 (December 31, 2020 – $89,207,000) and the carrying value was $80,000,000 (December 31, 2020 – $80,000,000). The aggregate fair value of the Fairfax Notes was $632,667,000 (December 31, 2020 – $640,058,000) and the aggregate carrying value was $600,000,000 (December 31, 2020 – $600,000,000) or $474,563,000 (December 31, 2020 - $469,100,000), net of discount. The fair value of the Company’s Exchangeable Notes was $195,650,000 (December 31, 2020 - $195,232,000) and the carrying value was $201,250,000 (December 31, 2020 - $201,250,000) or $195,318,000 (December 31, 2020 - $195,000,000), net of debt discount. The fair value of the Company’s NOK Bonds was $206,090,000 and the carrying value was $200,000,000. The fair value is calculated using the present value of expected principal repayments and interest discounted by relevant forward rates plus a margin appropriate to the credit risk of the Company. As a result, these amounts are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Under the Fairfax Notes, each holder has the right to call for early redemption of the Fairfax Notes by the Company on each respective anniversary date of issuance (the “Annual Put Right”). The Annual Put Right in the 2025 Notes and 2026 Notes are considered embedded derivatives that are separately accounted for and are re-measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. The fair value of the derivative put instruments at each reporting period is derived from the difference between the fair value of the notes and the fair value of a similar debt without Annual Put Rights, which are calculated using a trinomial tree. The assumptions used include our estimate of the risk-free yield curve, interest volatility and a company-specific credit risk. The fair values derivative put instruments are determined based on interest rate inputs that are unobservable. Therefore, the Company has categorized the fair value of these derivative financial instruments as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The Annual Put Right in the 2027 Fairfax Notes, issued at par value, is not considered an embedded derivative.

The Company’s interest rate derivative financial instruments are re-measured to fair value at the end of each reporting period. The fair values of the interest rate derivative financial instruments have been calculated by discounting the future cash flow of both the fixed rate and variable rate interest rate payments. The discount rate was derived from a yield curve created by nationally recognized financial institutions adjusted for the associated credit risk. The fair values of the interest rate derivative financial instruments are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets. Therefore, the Company has categorized the fair value of these derivative financial instruments as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

14.     Financial instruments (continued):

 

(a)

Fair value (continued):

The exchange feature embedded in the Exchangeable Notes and capped calls entered into in connection with the Exchangeable Notes are derivatives measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. The embedded exchange feature derivative is measured at fair value using a partial differential equation, with a Monte Carlo model for certain features. The capped call derivative is measured at fair value using a binomial tree. These models utilize observable and unobservable market data, including stock price, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and expected dividend yield, as applicable. The embedded exchange feature and capped call derivatives are classified as Level 3 as the Company uses expected volatility that is unobservable and significant to the valuation. In general, an increase in Atlas’s stock price or stock price volatility will increase the fair value of the embedded exchange feature and capped call derivatives which will result in an increase in loss and gain, respectively. As time to the expiration of the derivatives decreases, the fair value of the derivatives will decrease. The volatilities used as of March 31, 2021, for the embedded exchange feature were 45.45% and 31.93% for the capped call. The fair value of the embedded exchange feature and capped calls resulting from a change in volatility are included below.

Interest rate swap derivatives:

If interest rates remain at their current levels, the Company expects that $26,292,000 would be settled in cash in the next 12 months on instruments maturing after March 31, 2021. The amount of the actual settlement may be different depending on the interest rate in effect at the time settlements are made.
