Forward Freight Agreements

The Company uses forward freight agreements (or FFAs) in non-hedge-related transactions to increase or decrease its exposure to spot market rates, within defined limits. Net gains and losses from FFAs are recorded within realized and unrealized gains (losses) on derivative instruments in the Company's consolidated statements of (loss) income.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements, which exchange a receipt of floating interest for a payment of fixed interest, to reduce the Company’s exposure to interest rate variability on its outstanding floating-rate debt. Excluding the interest rate swaps held by Teekay Gas Business, the Company does not designate any of its interest rate swap agreements as cash flow hedges for accounting purposes.
