On September 13, 2017, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.01 per share, payable on or about September 29, 2017 to all shareholders as of September 25, 2017 (the record date). As of September 15, 2017, there were 280,218,861 shares outstanding.

Diluted Weighted Number of Shares

Diluted earnings per share is determined using the if-converted method. Under this method, the Company assumes that the Convertible Notes (which were issued in June 2014) are converted into common shares at the beginning of each period and the interest and non-cash amortization expense associated with these notes of $5.5 million and $11.0 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, respectively, are not incurred. Conversion is not assumed if the results of this calculation are anti-dilutive.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company's basic weighted average number of shares were 181,378,540 and 172,096,465, respectively. The weighted average number of shares, both diluted and under the if-converted method, were anti-dilutive for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 as the Company incurred net losses.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company's basic weighted average number of shares were 161,381,900 and 160,931,752, respectively. The Company's diluted weighted average number of shares for those periods were 165,943,795 and 166,306,290, respectively which excludes the impact of the Convertible Notes since the if-converted method was anti-dilutive. As of the date hereof, the Convertible Notes are not eligible for conversion.

The second warrant, which may be exercised to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,277,776 common shares, was issued on the date of the closing of the merger. Each warrant is exercisable on a pro-rata basis upon the redelivery of each NPTI vessel from the applicable Navig8 Group product tanker pool. Pursuant to the terms of the two warrants the Company, at its option, may elect to pay cash in lieu of issuing shares upon exercise of the two warrants. As of September 15, 2017, the Company has issued 611,116 shares to Navig8 Limited and made no cash payments in connection with the redelivery of 11 NPTI vessels and the corresponding warrant exercises.

Under the arrangement, each vessel is subject to a 10 year bareboat charter which expire throughout 2026 and 2027 (depending on the vessel). Charterhire under the arrangement is comprised of a fixed repayment amount of $0.2 million per month per vessel plus a variable component calculated at LIBOR plus 4.60%. The Company has purchase options to re-acquire each of the subject vessels during the bareboat charter period, with the first of such options exercisable at the end of the fourth year from the delivery date of the respective vessel. There is also a purchase obligation for each vessel upon the expiration of the agreement for $111.4 million in aggregate. These arrangements will be accounted for as finance leases.


(12)	In April 2017, the Company completed a cash tender offer of its 7.50% Senior Notes due October 2017 and repurchased $6.3 million aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes due 2017.

(13)

In March 2017, the Company issued $50.0 million of Senior Notes due 2019 in an underwritten public offering and in April 2017, the Company issued an additional $7.5 million of Senior Notes due 2019 when the underwriters fully exercised their option to purchase additional notes under the same terms and conditions. The Senior Notes due 2019 mature on June 1, 2019 and bear interest at a coupon rate of 8.25% per year.

Set forth below are the expected, estimated future principal repayments on the Company's outstanding indebtedness which includes amounts due under sale and finance leaseback arrangements. The principal portion of payments under the sale and leaseback arrangement with BCFL has been estimated based off of recent prevailing interest rates:

Newbuilding Program

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had six MR product tankers under construction with HMD and currently has four MR product tankers under construction with HMD after taking deliveries of STI Leblon and STI La Boca in July 2017. The Company refers to these vessels under construction as its Newbuilding Program.

During the second quarter of 2017, the Company made installment payments of $57.8 million relating to vessels under its Newbuilding Program.

Set forth below are the expected future installment payments and estimated debt drawdowns to partially finance the purchase vessels under construction as of June 30, 2017 ⁽¹⁾:

⁽¹⁾	The installment payments and debt drawdowns are estimates only and are subject to change as construction progresses.

⁽²⁾

As of June 30, 2017, the Company had $106.3 million available under its 2017 Credit Facility to partially finance the purchase of five MR product tankers that were under construction at HMD (the drawdown for the sixth vessel, STI Leblon, occurred on June 29, 2017 in advance of its delivery on July 4, 2017. Accordingly, this drawdown is not reflected in the above table). On July 11, 2017, the Company drew down $21.0 million to partially finance the purchase of STI La Boca, which was delivered on July 14, 2017.

Explanation of Variances on the Second Quarter of 2017 Financial Results Compared to the Second Quarter of 2016

For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the Company recorded a net loss of $68.3 million compared to net income of $3.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The following were the significant changes between the two periods:

•

Time charter equivalent, or TCE revenue, a Non-IFRS measure, is vessel revenues less voyage expenses (including bunkers and port charges). TCE revenue is included herein because it is a standard shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period-to-period changes in a shipping company's performance irrespective of changes in the mix of charter types (i.e., spot charters, time charters, and pool charters), and it provides useful information to investors and management. The following table depicts TCE revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016:



		For the three months ended June 30,
In thousands of U.S. dollars		2017			2016
	Vessel revenue	$	118,418		$	137,214
	Voyage expenses	(912		)	(472		)
	TCE revenue	$	117,506		$	136,742

•

TCE revenue decreased $19.2 million to $117.5 million from $136.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. This decrease was driven by a decrease in overall time charter equivalent revenue per day to $13,227 per day from $16,903 per day for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively (see the breakdown of daily TCE below). TCE revenue per day decreased across all of our operating segments as unfavorable market conditions that developed during the second half of 2016, driven by the delivery of newbuildings, high product inventories, low refining margins and a lack of arbitrage opportunities, persisted into the first half of 2017.

•

Vessel operating costs increased $3.6 million to $49.8 million from $46.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. This increase was the result of an increase in the average number of owned and bareboat chartered-in vessels to 87.9 vessels from 77.2 vessels for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. This increase was partially offset by an overall decrease in vessel operating costs per day to $6,233 per day from $6,585 per day for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively which was driven by improvements in our LR2 and MR operating segments (see the breakdown of daily vessel operating costs below).

•

Charterhire expense increased $0.8 million to $19.5 million from $18.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The Company's time and bareboat chartered-in fleet increased to an average of 10.4 time chartered-in vessels and 9.3 bareboat chartered-in vessels from an average of 11.7 time chartered-in vessels for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. There were no bareboat chartered-in vessels during the three months ended June 30, 2016. This increase was offset by lower average daily base rates on the time chartered-in fleet to an average of $14,110 per vessel per day from an average of $17,425 per vessel per day for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The average daily base rate for the Company's bareboat chartered-in fleet was $7,175 per day for the three months ended June 30, 2017.

•

Depreciation expense increased $1.1 million to $31.0 million from $29.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. This increase was primarily driven by the delivery of three LR2 tankers (one in 2016, and two during the six months ended June 30, 2017), the delivery of the 4 LR1 vessels acquired from NPTI in June 2017 and the delivery of two MR tankers under our Newbuilding Program during the six months ended June 30, 2017, offset by the sales of five MR tankers during 2017.


•	General and administrative expenses decreased $1.4 million to $11.7 million from $13.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. This decrease was primarily driven by a reduction in restricted stock amortization.

•

Merger transaction related costs of $32.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2017 represent costs incurred as part of the merger with NPTI. These costs include an estimate of $15.2 million of advisory and other professional fees and $17.3 million of costs related to the early termination of NPTI's existing service agreements. Approximately $6.0 million of the termination costs may be settled via the issuance of up to 1.5 million common shares of the Company. See the fifth bullet under “Merger with Navig8 Product Tankers Inc” above.


•	Bargain purchase gain of $5.4 million recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2017 represents the results of the initial purchase price allocation which was performed upon the Company's acquisition of four LR1 vessel owning subsidiaries from NPTI on June 14, 2017. This transaction was accounted for as a business combination due to its connection with the merger.

•

Financial expenses decreased $1.0 million to $25.0 million from $26.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The decrease was primarily the result of a $3.7 million write-off of deferred financing fees that was recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2016, as compared to a $0.8 million write-off of deferred financing fees that was recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2017. This decrease was offset by an increase in interest expense as a result of (i) increases in LIBOR rates when compared to the second quarter of 2016, (ii) interest incurred on the Company's newly issued Senior Notes due 2019, and (iii) a decrease in capitalized interest as a result of the decrease in the number of vessels under construction.

(1)	See Non-IFRS Measures section below.
(2)	Freight rates are commonly measured in the shipping industry in terms of time charter equivalent per day (or TCE per day), which is calculated by subtracting voyage expenses, including bunkers and port charges, from vessel revenue and dividing the net amount (time charter equivalent revenues) by the number of revenue days in the period. Revenue days are the number of days the vessel is owned or chartered-in less the number of days the vessel is off-hire for drydock and repairs.
(3)	Vessel operating costs per day represent vessel operating costs divided by the number of operating days during the period. Operating days are the total number of available days in a period with respect to the owned or bareboat chartered-in vessels, before deducting available days due to off-hire days and days in drydock. Operating days is a measurement that is only applicable to our owned, finance leased or bareboat chartered-in vessels, not our time chartered-in vessels.

Forward-Looking Statements

Matters discussed in this press release may constitute forward-looking statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbor protections for forward-looking statements in order to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their business. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance, and underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of historical facts. The Company desires to take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is including this cautionary statement in connection with this safe harbor legislation. The words "believe," "anticipate," "intends," "estimate," "forecast," "project," "plan," "potential," "may," "should," "expect," "pending" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements in this press release are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without limitation, our management's examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third parties. Although we believe that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond our control, we cannot assure you that we will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections. We undertake no obligation, and specifically decline any obligation, except as required by law, to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

In addition to these important factors, other important factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include, unforeseen liabilities, future capital expenditures, revenues, expenses, earnings, synergies, economic performance, indebtedness, financial condition, losses, future prospects, business and management strategies for the management, expansion and growth of our operations, risks relating to the integration of NPTI’s operations and the possibility that the anticipated synergies and other benefits of the acquisition will not be realized or will not be realized within the expected timeframe, the outcome of any legal proceedings related to the merger and the related transactions, the failure of counterparties to fully perform their contracts with us, the strength of world economies and currencies, general market conditions, including fluctuations in charter rates and vessel values, changes in demand for tanker vessel capacity, changes in our operating expenses, including bunker prices, drydocking and insurance costs, the market for our vessels, availability of financing and refinancing, charter counterparty performance, ability to obtain financing and comply with covenants in such financing arrangements, changes in governmental rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory authorities, potential liability from pending or future litigation, general domestic and international political conditions, potential disruption of shipping routes due to accidents or political events, vessels breakdowns and instances of off-hires, and other factors. Please see Scorpio Tankers' filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for a more complete discussion of certain of these and other risks and uncertainties.
