TEEKAY TANKERS LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts stated in thousands of U.S. Dollars, other than share or per share data)

1.Basis of Presentation
The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements (or unaudited consolidated financial statements) have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (or GAAP). These unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Teekay Tankers Ltd., its wholly-owned subsidiaries and equity-accounted joint venture (collectively, the Company). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Certain information and footnote disclosures required by GAAP for complete annual financial statements have been omitted and, therefore, these unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed on Form 20-F with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (or the SEC) on March 15, 2024. In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the Company’s unaudited consolidated financial position, results of operations, cash flows and changes in equity for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of those for a full fiscal year. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.

As of January 1, 2024, the European Union (or EU) expanded the existing European Union Emissions Trading System (or EU ETS) to the maritime industry. Under the EU ETS requirements, the Company acquires EU allowances (or EUAs) related to greenhouse gas emissions from its vessels and those third-party vessels subject to revenue sharing agreements (or RSAs) that trade to, from, and within the EU and European Economic Area. These EUAs are recorded as intangible assets in the unaudited consolidated balance sheet as at June 30, 2024 (see note 4). The Company classifies these EUAs as indefinite-lived intangible assets, which are not subject to amortization, and they are evaluated for impairment annually and whenever events and changes in circumstances indicate that the value of the assets may be impaired. In addition, the Company has recorded an obligation related to its emissions level for the six months ended June 30, 2024, as part of other long-term liabilities in the unaudited consolidated balance sheet as at June 30, 2024 (see note 7) and voyage expenses in the unaudited consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. The measurement of both the other long-term liability and voyage expenses is determined on a first-in, first-out method based on the cost of the EUAs that are acquired by the Company. If the Company has insufficient EUAs to cover emissions of its vessels and third-party vessels subject to RSAs, an accrual representing the difference between the total emissions liability and the carrying value of the EUAs held will be recorded based on the fair market value of an EUA that is traded on a regulated energy exchange at the end of the reporting period. The Company is required to surrender EUAs through its Union Registry account in September 2025 to cover its vessels' annual emissions for the year ending December 31, 2024.
2.    Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (or FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (or ASU 2023-07). ASU 2023-07 introduced updates for how significant segment expense categories and amounts for each reportable segment are disclosed. A significant segment expense is defined as an expense that is:
a.Significant to the segment,
b.Regularly provided to or easily computed from information regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker, and
c.Included in the reported measure of segment profit or loss.

This additional disclosure for segmented reporting is intended to provide additional information to financial statement users as now expenses such as direct expenses, shared expenses, allocated corporate overhead, or significant interest expense need to be disaggregated and reported separately for each segment. ASU 2023-07 is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted. Upon adoption, a public entity will adopt the ASU as of the beginning of the earliest period presented. The Company will adopt this standard starting with its annual financial statements as at and for the year ending December 31, 2024. The adoption of ASU 2023-07 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (or ASU 2023-09), which requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. This additional disclosure is intended to provide additional information and transparency of income tax disclosures by providing consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation, as well as income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted and should be applied prospectively, with retrospective application permitted. The Company expects to adopt this standard in its annual period beginning fiscal year 2025. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.

3.    Revenue
The Company’s primary source of revenue is from chartering its vessels (Suezmax tankers, Aframax tankers and Long Range 2 (or LR2) tankers) to its customers. The Company utilizes two primary forms of contracts, consisting of voyage charters and time charters.

The extent to which the Company employs its vessels on voyage charters versus time charters is dependent upon the Company’s chartering strategy and the availability of time charters. Spot market rates for voyage charters are volatile from period to period, whereas time charters provide a stable source of monthly revenue. The Company also provides ship-to-ship (or STS) support services, which include managing the process of transferring cargo between seagoing ships positioned alongside each other, as well as management services to third-party owners of vessels. For descriptions of these types of contracts, see "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 3" in the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements filed with its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The following table contains a breakdown of the Company's revenue by contract type for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023. The Company’s lease income consists of the revenue from its voyage charters and time charters.

Charters-out
As at June 30, 2024, two (December 31, 2023 - two) of the Company’s vessels operated under fixed-rate time-charter contracts, which are scheduled to expire in September 2024 and May 2025, respectively. As at June 30, 2024, the minimum scheduled future revenues to be received by the Company under these time charters were approximately $12.6 million (remainder of 2024) and $7.1 million (2025) (December 31, 2023 - $12.1 million (2024)). The hire payments should not be construed to reflect a forecast of total charter hire revenue for any of the periods. Future hire payments do not include any hire payments generated from new contracts entered into after June 30, 2024 or from variable consideration, if any, under contracts. In addition, future hire payments presented above have been reduced by estimated off-hire time for required periodic maintenance and do not reflect the impact of any applicable revenue sharing arrangements whereby time-charter revenues are shared with other revenue sharing arrangement participants. Actual amounts may vary given future events such as unplanned vessel maintenance.

Contract Liabilities
As at June 30, 2024, the Company had $3.0 million (December 31, 2023 - $3.4 million) of advanced payments recognized as contract liabilities that are expected to be recognized as time-charter revenues or voyage charter revenues in subsequent periods and which are included in other current liabilities on the Company's unaudited consolidated balance sheets.

4.    Intangible Assets
As part of the EU ETS requirements as described in note 1, during the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company acquired EUAs for $3.4 million, which were recorded as an indefinite-lived intangible asset in the unaudited consolidated balance sheet as at June 30, 2024.

The carrying amounts of intangible assets are as follows:

(1)The customer relationships are being amortized over a weighted average amortization period of 10 years. Amortization of the customer relationships for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $0.1 million and $0.2 million (2023 - $0.1 million and $0.2 million), respectively. Amortization of the customer relationships for the remaining years subsequent to June 30, 2024 is expected to be $0.2 million (remainder of 2024) and $0.3 million (2025).
5.    Long-Term Debt
As at June 30, 2024, the Company had one revolving credit facility (or the 2023 Revolver), which, as at such date, provided for aggregate borrowings of up to $287.9 million (December 31, 2023 - $321.8 million), of which $287.9 million (December 31, 2023 - $321.8 million) was undrawn. The 2023 Revolver matures in May 2029, and interest payments are based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (or SOFR) plus a margin of 2.0%. As of June 30, 2024, the total amount available under the 2023 Revolver was scheduled to decrease by $33.9 million (remainder of 2024), $67.8 million (2025), $66.4 million (2026), $55.0 million (2027), $43.3 million (2028) and $21.5 million (thereafter). As of June 30, 2024, the 2023 Revolver is collateralized by 19 of the Company's vessels, together with other related security.

The 2023 Revolver requires the Company to maintain a minimum hull coverage ratio of 125% of the total outstanding drawn balance for the facility. This requirement is assessed on a semi-annual basis with reference to vessel valuations compiled by two or more agreed upon third parties. Should this ratio drop below the required amount, the lenders may request that the Company either prepay a portion of the loan in the amount of the shortfall or provide additional collateral in the amount of the shortfall, at the Company's option. As at June 30, 2024, the hull coverage ratio was not applicable due to no balance being drawn. In addition, the Company is required to maintain a minimum liquidity (cash, cash equivalents and undrawn committed revolving credit lines with at least six months to maturity) of the greater of $35.0 million and at least 5% of the Company's total consolidated debt. As at June 30, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants in respect of the 2023 Revolver.

The interest rate on the Company’s long-term debt facility as at June 30, 2024 was 7.3% (December 31, 2023 - 7.4%).
6.    Operating Leases and Obligations Related to Finance Leases
Operating Leases

The Company charters-in vessels from other vessel owners on time-charter contracts, whereby the vessel owner provides use and technical operation of the vessel for the Company. A time charter-in contract is typically for a fixed period of time, although in certain cases the Company may have the option to extend the charter. The Company typically pays the owner a daily hire rate that is fixed over the duration of the charter. The Company is generally not required to pay the daily hire rate during periods the vessel is not able to operate.
As at June 30, 2024, minimum commitments to be incurred by the Company under time charter-in contracts were approximately $33.5 million (remainder of 2024), $41.1 million (2025), $18.8 million (2026), $11.2 million (2027), $6.3 million (2028) and $6.6 million (thereafter).

7.    Obligation Related to EU ETS
As part of the EU ETS requirements as described in note 1, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded an obligation of $3.3 million, which was included as part of other long-term liabilities in the unaudited consolidated balance sheet as at June 30, 2024. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company also recognized expenses of $1.3 million and $3.3 million, respectively, as part of voyage expenses in the unaudited consolidated statements of income.
8.    Derivative Instruments
Interest rate swap agreement
As deemed appropriate, the Company from time to time uses derivative instruments in accordance with its overall risk management policies. The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements which exchange a receipt of floating-rate interest for a payment of fixed-rate interest to reduce the Company’s exposure to interest rate variability on its outstanding floating-rate debt. As at June 30, 2024, the Company was not committed to any interest rate swap agreements.
Forward freight agreements
As deemed appropriate, the Company from time to time uses forward freight agreements (or FFAs) in non-hedge-related transactions to increase or decrease its exposure to spot tanker market rates, within defined limits. Net gains and losses from FFAs are recorded within realized and unrealized loss on derivative instruments in the Company's unaudited consolidated statements of income. As at June 30, 2024, the Company maintains restricted cash deposits relating to FFAs (see note 17); however, the Company was not committed to any FFAs.

9.    Fair Value Measurements
For a description of how the Company estimates fair value and for a description of the fair value hierarchy levels, see "Item 18 – Financial Statements: Note 10" to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements filed with its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023.
The following table includes the estimated fair value, carrying value and categorization using the fair value hierarchy of those assets and liabilities that are measured at their estimated fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis, as well as certain financial instruments that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

(1)As part of the EU ETS requirements as described in note 1, for the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded an obligation related to EU ETS which was included as part of other long-term liabilities in the unaudited consolidated balance sheet as at June 30, 2024. This amount can include an accrual representing the difference between the total emissions liability and the carrying value of the EUAs held as at the end of the reporting period. The fair value of the accrual is estimated using the fair market value of an EUA that is traded on a regulated energy exchange at the end of the reporting period. As at June 30, 2024, no such accrual was made as the total emissions liability was less than the carrying value of the EUAs held.
(2)The advances to its equity-accounted joint venture, together with the Company’s investment in the equity-accounted joint venture, form the net aggregate carrying value of the Company’s interests in the equity-accounted joint venture in these unaudited consolidated financial statements. As at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair values of the individual components of such aggregate interests were not determinable.
The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the financial institutions where its cash and cash equivalents are held. In order to minimize credit risk, the Company only places deposits with counterparties that are rated A- or better by Standard & Poor’s or A3 or better by Moody’s at the time of the transaction. In addition, to the extent practical, cash deposits are held by and entered into with, as applicable, different counterparties to reduce concentration risk.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2 – MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes contained in "Item 1 – Financial Statements" of this Report on Form 6-K and with our audited consolidated financial statements contained in "Item 18 – Financial Statements" and "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in "Item 5 – Operating and Financial Review and Prospects" of our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023.

OVERVIEW
Our business is to own and operate crude oil and product tankers, and we employ a chartering strategy that seeks to capture upside opportunities in the tanker spot market while using fixed-rate time charters and full service lightering (or FSL) contracts to reduce potential downside risks. Our mix of vessels trading in the spot market or subject to fixed-term time charters will change from time to time. In addition to our core business, we also provide ship-to-ship (or STS) support services, along with our tanker commercial management and technical management operations. As at June 30, 2024, our fleet consisted of 53 vessels, including 10 chartered-in vessels, and one 50%-owned Very Large Crude Carrier (or VLCC). The following table summarizes our fleet as at June 30, 2024:

(2)The charter-out contract is scheduled to expire in September 2024.
(3)The charter-out contract is scheduled to expire in June 2025.
(4)Six Aframax / LR2 tankers are currently time chartered-in for periods expiring in August 2024, November 2024, March 2025, August 2025 and February 2026, three of which have options to extend for one year. One 2023-built Aframax / LR2 tanker is currently time chartered-in for a period expiring in January 2030 with three one-year extension option periods and a purchase option at the end of the second extension option period.
(5)The VLCC is owned through a 50/50 joint venture (or High-Q joint venture). As at June 30, 2024, the VLCC was trading on spot voyage charters in a pooling arrangement managed by a third party.
(6)As at June 30, 2024, a total of 48 of our owned and chartered-in vessels, as well as four vessels not in our fleet and owned by third parties, were subject to revenue sharing agreements (or RSAs).
ITEMS YOU SHOULD CONSIDER WHEN EVALUATING OUR RESULTS
There are a number of factors that should be considered when evaluating our historical financial performance and assessing our future prospects, and we use a variety of financial and operational terms and concepts when analyzing our results of operations. These items can be found in "Item 5 – Operating and Financial Review and Prospects" in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023.

SIGNIFICANT DEVELOPMENTS IN 2024
Conflicts in Israel/Gaza Strip and Ukraine

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 continue to suspend 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 continue to actively investigate 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 see “Item 3 - Key Information - Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023 for additional information about risks to us and our business, including risks relating to political instability, terrorist or other attacks, war or international hostilities and the conflicts in Israel and Ukraine.

Vessel Sales

During the fourth quarter of 2023, we agreed to sell one Aframax / LR2 tanker for $23.5 million, which sale resulted in a gain on sale of $11.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The tanker, which was classified as held for sale as at December 31, 2023, was delivered to its new owner in February 2024.

In May 2024, we agreed to sell one Aframax / LR2 tanker and one Suezmax tanker for a combined sales price of $64.8 million. Both tankers, which were classified as held for sale as at June 30, 2024, are expected to be delivered to the purchaser during the third or fourth quarter of 2024.

Vessel Sale-Leaseback Repurchases

In March 2024, we completed the repurchase of eight Suezmax tankers for a total cost of $137.0 million, pursuant to repurchase options under related sale-leaseback arrangements. Currently, the eight vessels are unencumbered.

Vessel Purchase

In June 2024, we agreed to acquire one 2021-built Aframax / LR2 tanker for a purchase price of $70.5 million. A deposit of $7.1 million related to this purchase was placed in an escrow account, which is recorded in other non-current assets in the unaudited consolidated balance sheet as at June 30, 2024. In July 2024, we completed the vessel purchase and took delivery of the vessel.

Time Chartered-in Vessel

In May 2024, we extended one chartered-in contract for an Aframax / LR2 tanker for 12 months at a rate of $34,000 per day and secured an additional 12-month optional period at the same daily rate.

Time Chartered-out Vessel

During the second quarter of 2024, we entered into a one-year time charter-out contract for an Aframax / LR2 tanker at a rate of $49,750 per day which commenced at the beginning of June 2024.

European Union Emissions Trading System (or EU ETS)

Since January 1, 2024, as part of our compliance with the EU ETS requirements, we have acquired EU allowances (or EUAs) related to greenhouse gas emissions from our vessels and those vessels subject to RSAs that trade to, from, and within the EU and European Economic Area. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we acquired EUAs for a cost of $3.4 million on the secondary market. As at June 30, 2024, we recorded an indefinite-lived intangible asset of $3.4 million in relation to the purchased EUAs and a long-term liability of $3.3 million in relation to our obligation under EU ETS. In addition, we recorded voyage expenses of $1.3 million and $3.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. Please see “Item 4 – Information on the Company – B. Business Overview – Regulations” in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023, as well as “Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 1 – Basis of Presentation”, “Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 4 – Intangible Assets” and “Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 7 – Obligation Related to EU ETS” in this Report on Form 6-K for information about EU ETS requirements and our obligation related to EU ETS.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
In accordance with GAAP, we report gross revenues in our unaudited consolidated statements of income and include voyage expenses among our operating expenses. However, ship-owners base economic decisions regarding the deployment of their vessels upon anticipated time-charter equivalent (or TCE) rates, which represent net revenues (or income from operations before vessel operating expenses, time-charter hire expenses, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, gain or loss on sale and write-down of assets, and restructuring charges), which includes voyage expenses, divided by revenue days; in addition, industry analysts typically measure bulk shipping freight and hire rates in terms of TCE rates. This is because under time charter-out contracts the customer usually pays the voyage expenses, while under voyage charters the ship-owner usually pays the voyage expenses, which typically are added to the hire rate at an approximate cost. Accordingly, the discussion of revenue below focuses on net revenues and TCE rates (both of which are non-GAAP financial measures) where applicable.

Summary

Our consolidated income from operations was $241.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $341.4 million in the same period last year. The primary reasons for this decrease in income are as follows:
chart-e426bcbe876148a4a33a.jpg
a decrease of $94.7 million as a result of lower overall average realized spot TCE rates earned by our Suezmax tankers and Aframax / LR2 tankers in the first half of 2024 compared to the same period in the prior year;

a decrease of $15.8 million due to the sale of two Aframax / LR2 tankers during the fourth quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024; and

a decrease of $3.7 million due to an increase in general and administrative expenses during the first half of 2024, primarily resulting from higher expenditures related to compensation, benefits and payroll taxes compared to the same period in the prior year;

partially offset by:

an increase of $11.6 million due to the gain on sale of one Aframax / LR2 tanker in the first quarter of 2024; and

an increase of $2.3 million due to the addition of three Aframax / LR2 chartered-in tankers that were delivered to us during the first quarter of 2023.

Details of the changes to our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, are provided below.

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 versus Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2023

We own and operate crude oil and product tankers that (i) are subject to long-term, fixed-rate time-charter contracts (which have an original term of one year or more), (ii) operate in the spot tanker market, or (iii) are subject to time charters that are priced on a spot market basis or are short-term, fixed-rate contracts (which have original terms of less than one year), including those employed on FSL contracts. In addition, we provide STS support services, along with our tanker commercial management and technical management services.

(1)This is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please refer to "Item 2 Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Non-GAAP Financial Measure" for a definition and reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Net Revenues. Net revenues were $196.5 million and $418.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to $252.6 million and $523.0 million for the same periods in the prior year.
The decreases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to the same periods in the prior year were primarily the result of:

decreases of $39.3 million and $94.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, due to lower overall average realized spot rates earned by our Suezmax tankers and Aframax / LR2 tankers compared to the same periods in the prior year;

net decreases of $9.7 million and $12.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, due to the sale of two Aframax / LR2 tankers during the fourth quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024, partially offset by the addition of three Aframax / LR2 chartered-in tankers that were delivered to us during the first quarter of 2023;

a decrease of $5.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 due to more off-hire days related to the timing of dry dockings compared to the same period in the prior year; and

a net decrease of $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 primarily due to one vessel returning from a time charter-out contract during the second quarter of 2024 and earning a lower average rate compared to the previous rate;

partially offset by:
17



an increase of $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 due to one extra calendar day compared to the same period in the prior year; and

a net increase of $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 primarily due to certain vessels returning from time charter-out contracts during the first quarter of 2023 and the second quarter of 2024 and earning a higher average rate compared to the previous rate.

Vessel Operating Expenses. Vessel operating expenses were $38.4 million and $75.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to $37.8 million and $76.0 million for the same periods in the prior year. The fluctuations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 were primarily due to increases of $1.6 million and $0.9 million, respectively, resulting from higher costs for maintenance, communication services, and insurance, as well as higher crewing-related expenditures, which is offset by decreases of $1.1 million and $2.3 million, respectively, resulting from the sale of two Aframax / LR2 tankers during the fourth quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024. The decrease for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was partially offset by an increase of $1.3 million related to higher compensation expenditures for ship management.

Time-charter Hire Expenses. Time-charter hire expenses were $19.7 million and $39.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to $18.7 million and $31.6 million for the same periods in the prior year. The increases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 were primarily due to increases of $1.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively, resulting from an increase in daily hire rates for three Aframax / LR2 tankers after extending their chartered-in contracts during the second half of 2023. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was also due to an increase of $4.2 million resulting from the addition of three Aframax / LR2 chartered-in tankers that were delivered to us during the first quarter of 2023, as well as an increase of $1.7 million resulting from more hire days for a chartered-in tanker during the first quarter of 2024 due to its dry dock during the first quarter of 2023.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization was $22.4 million and $45.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to $24.4 million and $48.4 million for the same periods in the prior year. The decreases were primarily due to the sale of two Aframax / LR2 tankers during the fourth quarter of 2023 and first quarter of 2024, as well as one Aframax / LR2 tanker and one Suezmax tanker being classified as held for sale in the first quarter of 2024.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses were $14.0 million and $27.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively compared to $12.1 million and $24.4 million for the same periods in the prior year. The increases were primarily due to higher expenditures related to compensation, benefits and payroll taxes.
Gain on Sale of Vessel. The gain on sale of vessel of $11.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was related to the sale of one Aframax / LR2 tanker in February 2024.
Restructuring Charges. Restructuring charges of $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were related to organizational changes made to our commercial and technical operations teams.
Interest Expense. Interest expense was $1.0 million and $5.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to $5.9 million and $17.1 million for the same periods in the prior year. The decreases were primarily due to the repurchase of 11 Aframax / LR2 tankers and 16 Suezmax tankers during 2023 and the first quarter of 2024, all of which were previously held under sale-leaseback arrangements.
Interest Income. Interest income was $5.7 million and $11.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to $1.8 million and $4.0 million for the same periods in the prior year. The increases were primarily due to higher cash balances earning higher interest rates.
Realized and Unrealized Gain on Derivative Instruments. Realized and unrealized gain on derivative instruments was $nil for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to $0.5 million and $0.4 million for the same periods in the prior year.
From time to time, we enter into interest rate swap agreements which exchange a receipt of floating interest for a payment of fixed interest to reduce our exposure to interest rate variability on our outstanding floating-rate debt. During 2023, we terminated our interest rate swap agreement that we entered into in March 2020. As at June 30, 2024, we were not committed to any interest rate swap agreements.
During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2023, we recognized realized gains of $3.7 million and $4.2 million, respectively, as well as unrealized losses of $3.1 million and $3.7 million, respectively, under a now-terminated interest rate swap agreement.
Equity Income. Equity income was $0.9 million and $2.3 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to $1.1 million and $2.3 million for the same periods in the prior year. The decrease for the three months ended June 2024 was primarily due to lower spot rates realized by our 50% ownership interest in a VLCC, which has been trading in a third-party managed VLCC pooling arrangement.
Other Income. Other income was $1.5 million and $0.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to $2.3 million and $17.0 thousand for the same periods in the prior year. The net decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates related to our accrued tax and working capital balances, partially offset by premiums paid in relation to the repurchase of two Aframax / LR2 tankers and four Suezmax tankers previously under sale-leaseback arrangements during the second quarter of 2023. The increase for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily due to premiums paid in relation to the repurchase of the six aforementioned tankers in the second quarter of 2023.
18


Income Tax (Expense) Recovery. Income tax expense and income tax recovery was $2.3 million and $2.1 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively, compared to income tax expenses of $8.1 million and $10.4 million for the same periods in the prior year. The fluctuations were primarily due to a reversal of, and a lower accrual for, certain freight tax liabilities based on an assessment of our tax position for certain jurisdictions, a higher recovery related to the expiry of the limitation period in a certain jurisdiction, as well as changes in vessel trading activities. For additional information, please read "Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 15 - Income Tax (Expense) Recovery" of this report.

Tanker Market
Mid-size crude tanker spot rates remained firm during the second quarter of 2024, counter to normal seasonal trends. Tonne-mile demand continues to be supported by a combination of strong oil exports from key mid-size tanker load regions, geopolitical events which are causing longer voyage distances, and the start-up of the Trans Mountain Pipeline expansion (or TMX) from Vancouver, Canada. In addition, a strong product tanker market has caused LR2s that were previously trading crude oil to switch to clean product trading, increasing tightness in an already firm market. As refinery throughput increases to meet demand going into the winter months, and the other factors underpinning tonne-mile demand for mid-sized tankers remain strong, we expect spot tanker rates to be well supported through the second half of 2024 and into next year.
Global oil demand is projected to grow by 1.4 million barrels per day (or mb/d) in 2024 and 1.5 mb/d in 2025 as per the average of forecasts from the International Energy Agency (or IEA), the U.S. Energy Information Administration (or EIA) and OPEC. Much of this demand growth is expected to be met by increased oil supply from non-OPEC+ countries in the Atlantic Basin led by the United States, Brazil, Guyana, and Canada, which would be positive for tanker demand. In addition, the OPEC+ group has announced their intention to unwind 2.2 mb/d of voluntary production cuts over the course of 12 months starting in October 2024, which should give further support to crude tanker demand from the fourth quarter of 2024 onwards.
The increase in Canadian seaborne crude oil exports is being facilitated by the ramp up in exports from TMX, which opened in mid-May 2024. As all exports from the terminal are via Aframax tankers, the opening of TMX is another positive for Aframax demand. Exports from the pipeline totaled approximately 300 thousand barrels per day (or kb/d) during June with volumes flowing to refineries on the US West Coast, the Pacific Area Lightering (or PAL) off the coast of California for ship-to-ship transfer to larger tankers for onward transportation to Asia, or directly to Asia. Volumes are expected to increase towards the full capacity of 550 kb/d in the coming months, further supporting Aframax demand.
Geopolitical events continue to impact seaborne trade flows, including the ongoing attacks on shipping in the Red Sea which are causing vessels to divert long-haul via the Cape of Good Hope. This has been particularly evident in the product tanker sector, with refined product movements via the Cape of Good Hope increasing from an average of 0.8 mb/d in 2023 to 2.7 mb/d in 2024-to-date. Given the long-haul nature of these movements, the LR2 sector has benefited the most from these diversions with elevated spot rates through the first half of the year. As a result, a number of LR2s have switched from trading crude oil to clean products, with the clean trading LR2 fleet increasing by 30 to 35 vessels since the start of the year, thereby tightening fleet supply in the crude Aframax sector.
Just 3.5 million deadweight (or mdwt) of new tankers were delivered into the global tanker fleet during the first half of 2024, and deliveries this year are on track for the lowest total since the late 1980s. As such, we expect negligible tanker fleet growth through the rest of the year. Looking further ahead, we believe a combination of a modest tanker orderbook, an aging tanker fleet, and a lack of shipyard capacity until mid-2027 should ensure that tanker fleet growth remains at low levels over the next two to three years.
In summary, we expect mid-size crude tanker spot rates to remain well supported through the remainder of 2024 with geopolitical factors and resultant trade disruptions adding to rate volatility. Looking further ahead, a combination of rising oil demand and low tanker fleet growth point towards multiple years of tanker market strength.

Fleet and TCE Rates

As at June 30, 2024, we owned 42 double-hulled oil and product tankers and time chartered-in seven Aframax / LR2 tankers, one Suezmax tanker and two STS support vessels. We also owned a 50% interest in one VLCC, the results of which are included in equity income.
The following table highlights the operating performance of our time-charter vessels and spot vessels subject to the RSAs and on voyage charters, measured in net voyage revenue per revenue day, or TCE rates, before off-hire bunker expenses:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Sources and Uses of Capital

We generate cash flows primarily from chartering out our vessels. We employ 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. Our short-term charters and spot market tanker operations contribute to the volatility of our net operating cash flow, and thus may impact our ability to generate sufficient cash flows to meet our 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. However, there can be other factors that override typical seasonality, such as global oil trade routes and tonne-mile demand being impacted by Russia's invasion of Ukraine. While exposure to the volatile spot market is the largest potential cause for changes in our net operating cash flow from period to period, variability in our 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.

Our other primary sources of cash are long-term bank borrowings, lease or equity financings, and the proceeds from the sales of our older vessels.

As of June 30, 2024, we have one credit facility, our 2023 Revolver, and we had no vessels subject to financing leases. Our 2023 Revolver is described in "Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 5 - Long-Term Debt" of this report. Our 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. Our 2023 Revolver requires us to maintain certain financial covenants. The terms of and compliance with these financial covenants are described in further detail in "Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 5 - Long-Term Debt" of this report. If we do not meet these financial or other covenants, the lenders may declare our obligations under the agreement immediately due and payable and terminate any further loan commitments, which depending upon our other liquidity at the time, could significantly affect our short-term liquidity requirements. As at June 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all covenants under our 2023 Revolver. Our 2023 Revolver requires us to make interest payments based on SOFR plus a margin. Depending upon the amount of our floating-rate credit facilities and balances from time to time, significant increases in interest rates could adversely affect our results of operations and our ability to service our debt. From time to time, we use interest rate swaps to reduce our exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates. As at June 30, 2024, we were not committed to any interest rate swap agreements.

Our primary uses of cash include the payment of operating expenses, dry-docking expenditures, costs associated with modifications to our vessels, funding our other working capital requirements, dividend payments on our common shares, repurchase of our common shares under our share repurchase program, providing funding to our equity-accounted joint venture from time to time, debt servicing costs, as well as scheduled repayments of long-term debt. In addition, we may use 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 our existing fleet, the commercial outlook for our vessels and other considerations. As such, vessel acquisition activity may vary significantly from year-to-year.

Net cash flow provided by (used for) investing activities12,520(800)

Net Operating Cash Flow
The $94.2 million decrease in net operating cash flow for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023 was primarily due to:

a net decrease of $94.7 million in cash inflows primarily due to lower operating earnings during the first half of 2024 resulting from lower average realized spot tanker rates, as well as the sale of two Aframax / LR2 tankers during the fourth quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2024, partially offset by lower interest expense resulting from the repurchase of 27 tankers during 2023 and the first quarter of 2024, all of which were previously held under sale-leaseback arrangements, higher interest income, as well as the addition of three chartered-in vessels during the first quarter of 2023; and

an increase of $4.9 million in cash outflows related to expenditures for dry-docking activities during the first half of 2024 compared to the same period of the prior year;

partially offset by:

a decrease of $5.4 million in cash outflows related to changes in net working capital during the first half of 2024.

Net Financing Cash Flow
Net cash flow used for financing activities decreased by $150.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023. The decrease was primarily due to:

a decrease of $186.5 million in cash outflows primarily due to a decrease in prepayments and scheduled repayments on our finance lease obligations resulting from the repurchase of eight Suezmax tankers under their previous sale-leaseback financing agreements in the first half of 2024 compared to the repurchase of six Suezmax tankers and nine Aframax / LR2 tankers in the first half of 2023;

a decrease of $4.5 million in cash outflows due to debt issuance costs paid in relation to the setup of the 2023 Revolver that was entered during the first half of 2023; and

an increase of $2.9 million in cash inflows due to proceeds received upon the exercise of stock options during the first half of 2024;

partially offset by:

an increase of $43.2 million in cash outflows due to cash dividends on our common shares paid during the first half of 2024.

Net Investing Cash Flow
Net cash flow provided by investing activities increased by $13.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase was primarily due to:

an increase of $23.4 million in cash inflows resulting from net proceeds received from the sale of one Aframax / LR2 tanker during the first half of 2024;

partially offset by:

an increase of $7.1 million in cash outflows resulting from a deposit paid for the purchase of an Aframax / LR2 tanker during the first half of 2024;

a decrease of $1.9 million in cash inflows resulting from a partial loan repayment from our equity-accounted joint venture during the first half of 2023; and

an increase of $1.2 million in cash outflows resulting from higher capital expenditures during the first half of 2024.

Liquidity
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash and cash equivalents, net operating cash flow, our undrawn credit facility, and capital raised through financing transactions. The primary objectives of our cash management policy are to preserve capital, to ensure that cash investments can be sold readily and efficiently, and to provide an appropriate return. The nature and extent of amounts that can be borrowed under our 2023 Revolver are described in "Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 5 - Long-Term Debt" of this report.

For information on our dividend policy and share repurchase program, please see "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Liquidity and Capital Resources" in "Item 5 – Operating and Financial Review and Prospects" in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Our total consolidated liquidity, including cash, cash equivalents and undrawn credit facility, increased by $27.6 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024 from $687.1 million as at December 31, 2023 to $714.7 million as at June 30, 2024. The net increase during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily a result of the following events or changes during the first half of 2024: $276.0 million of net operating cash inflow during the first half of 2024; $23.4 million received from the sale of one Aframax / LR2 tanker and $2.9 million of proceeds received upon the exercise of stock options; partially offset by a $137.0 million payment for the repurchase of eight Suezmax tankers that were previously under sale-leaseback arrangements; $85.7 million of cash dividends paid on our common shares; $33.9 million of reduction in the borrowing capacity of our 2023 revolver; $7.1 million paid as a deposit for the purchase of an Aframax / LR2 tanker; $5.2 million of scheduled repayments of obligations related to finance leases and $3.9 million of expenditures for capital upgrades for vessels and equipment.

We anticipate that our liquidity at June 30, 2024, combined with cash we expect to generate during the 12 months following the date of this report, will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for at least the one-year period following the date of this report.

Our 2023 Revolver matures in May 2029, and there was no amount outstanding under the facility as at June 30, 2024. Our ability to refinance our 2023 Revolver will depend upon, among other things, the estimated market value of our vessels, our financial condition and the condition of credit markets at such time. In addition, as at June 30, 2024, we had a purchase commitment related to the acquisition of a 2021-built Aframax / LR2 tanker. In June 2024, we signed an agreement to acquire this vessel for a purchase price of $70.5 million, and a deposit of $7.1 million was paid and placed in an escrow account. In July 2024, we took delivery of the tanker and paid the remaining balance of $63.4 million using cash on hand. Approximately 50% of our fleet is currently aged 15 years and older, and we may continue the process of fleet renewal in the coming years. We expect that any fleet renewal expenditures will be funded using the undrawn revolving credit facility, cash on hand and new financing arrangements, including bank borrowings, finance leases and, potentially, the issuance of debt and equity securities.

The following table summarizes our other contractual obligations as at June 30, 2024:

Other risks and uncertainties related to our liquidity include changes to income tax legislation or the resolution of uncertain tax positions relating to freight tax liabilities as outlined in "Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 15 - Income Tax (Expense) Recovery" of this report, which could have a significant financial impact on our business, which we cannot predict with certainty at this time. In addition, as at June 30, 2024, the High-Q joint venture had a loan outstanding with a financial institution with a balance of $18.8 million, and we guarantee 50% of the outstanding loan balance. Finally, existing or future climate control legislation or other regulatory initiatives that restrict emissions of greenhouse gases could have a significant financial and operational impact on our business, which we cannot predict with certainty at this time. Such regulatory measures could increase our costs related to operating and maintaining our vessels and require us to install new emission controls, acquire allowances or pay taxes related to our greenhouse gas emissions, or administer and manage a greenhouse gas emissions program. The inclusion of the maritime industry in the EU ETS as of January 1, 2024, requires us to acquire allowances related to our greenhouse gas emissions as outlined in "Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 1 – Basis of Presentation”, “Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 4 – Intangible Assets” and “Item 1 – Financial Statements: Note 7 – Obligation Related to EU ETS” of this report. In addition, increased regulation of greenhouse gases may, in the long-term, lead to reduced demand for oil and reduced demand for our services.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP, which require us to make estimates in the application of our accounting policies based on our best assumptions, judgments and opinions. On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material. Accounting estimates and assumptions that we consider to be the most critical to an understanding of our financial statements because they inherently involve significant judgments and uncertainties are discussed
23


in "Item 5 – Operating and Financial Review and Prospects" in our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023. There have been no significant changes to these estimates and assumptions for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE

Net Revenues

Net revenues is a non-GAAP financial measure. Consistent with general practice in the shipping industry, we use “net revenues” (defined as income from operations before vessel operating expenses, time-charter hire expenses, depreciation and amortization, general and administrative expenses, gain or loss on sale and write-down of assets, and restructuring charges) as a measure of equating revenues generated from voyage charters to revenues generated from time charters, which assists us in making operating decisions about the deployment of our vessels and their performance. Since under time charters the charterer pays the voyage expenses, whereas under voyage charters, the ship-owner pays these expenses, we include voyage expenses in net revenues. Some voyage expenses are fixed, and the remainder can be estimated. If we, as the ship owner, pay the voyage expenses, we typically pass the approximate amount of these expenses on to our customers by charging higher rates to them. As a result, although revenues from different types of contracts may vary, the net revenues are comparable across the different types of contracts. We principally use net revenues because it provides more meaningful information to us than income from operations, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. Net revenues is also widely used by investors and analysts in the shipping industry for comparing financial performance between companies and to industry averages. The following table reconciles net revenues with income from operations.
