CEO Commentary
“In the third quarter of 2021, we recorded a small consolidated adjusted net profit. Stronger results from our marine services business in Australia and lower vessel operating expenses offset weaker spot tanker rates during the quarter,” commented Kenneth Hvid, Teekay’s President and CEO. “In September 2021, Teekay Parent secured a contract with the Australian Government Department of Defence to provide marine services for five Australian Government vessels for a firm period of six years, with options to extend for up to an additional 10 years. Teekay has had a presence in Australia since 1997 and already operates four Australian Government vessels. We are proud to have the Australian Government as a strategic partner and an important customer, and we view this expanded role in providing services for nine Australian Government vessels to be a solid foundation to further grow our business there.”
“In early-October 2021, Teekay LNG and Stonepeak announced that they have entered into a merger agreement whereby Stonepeak will acquire all of Teekay LNG for $17.00 per unit or unit equivalent in cash, representing an enterprise value of $6.2 billion (1) and common unit equity value of $1.5 billion ,” commented Mr. Hvid. “We believe this transaction represents a unique opportunity for us and other Teekay LNG common unitholders to monetize existing investments in Teekay LNG at an attractive valuation, which will provide Teekay Parent with gross proceeds of approximately $640 million . This transaction also provides Teekay Parent with significantly greater financial flexibility and dry powder to leverage its existing operating franchise and industry-leading capabilities to pursue attractive investment opportunities in both the shipping sector and potentially in new and adjacent markets, which we expect to be dynamic as the world pushes for greater energy diversification.”

Summary of Results
Teekay Corporation Consolidated
The Company's consolidated GAAP net loss attributable to shareholders of Teekay Corporation and adjusted net income(1) for the third quarter of 2021, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, were negatively impacted by lower earnings from Teekay Tankers as a result of lower average spot tanker rates during the third quarter of 2021, the expiration of certain fixed-rate time charter contracts, and the sale of three tankers in total during the first quarter and third quarter of 2021, respectively, partially offset by lower vessel operating expenses for Teekay Tankers in the third quarter of 2021 compared to the third quarter of 2020.
In addition, consolidated GAAP net loss attributable to shareholders of Teekay Corporation during the third quarter of 2021, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, was positively impacted by the Company recognizing fewer impairment charges in the third quarter of 2021, which included a write-down of $0.9 million relating to one Aframax tanker, down from write-downs totaling $66.3 million in the third quarter of 2020 relating to five Aframax tankers, one FPSO unit and one in-chartered FSO unit under an operating lease; an unrealized credit loss provision reversal in the third quarter of 2021 compared to an increase in unrealized credit loss provisions in the third quarter of 2020; and lower decommissioning costs related to the Banff FPSO in the third quarter of 2021 compared to the third quarter of 2020.
Teekay Parent ( 1 ) was $5.8 million during the third quarter of 2021, compared to negative $17.1 million for the same quarter of the prior year, primarily due to costs incurred in the third quarter of 2020 relating to the decommissioning of the Banff FPSO, which commenced in June 2020 and was substantially completed in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Summary Results of Daughter Entities
Teekay LNG
Teekay LNG’s GAAP net income and adjusted net income(1) for the third quarter of 2021, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, were impacted primarily by an increase in general and administrative expenses related to the Transaction with Stonepeak, an increase in scheduled off-hire days relating to vessel upgrades and dry dockings during the third quarter of 2021, and the redeployment of certain LNG carriers at lower rates in March 2021 and August 2021, respectively.
In addition, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, Teekay LNG's GAAP net income for the third quarter of 2021 was also positively impacted by credit loss provision reversals and foreign currency exchange gains.
Please refer to Teekay LNG's third quarter 2021 earnings release for additional information on the financial results for this entity.
Teekay Tankers
Teekay Tankers' GAAP net loss and adjusted net loss(1) in the third quarter of 2021, compared to the same quarter of the prior year, were impacted primarily by lower average spot tanker rates in the third quarter of 2021, the expiration of certain fixed-rate time charter contracts, and the sale of three vessels in total during the first quarter and third quarter of 2021, respectively. These decreases were partially offset by lower vessel operating expenses and interest expense in the third quarter of 2021 compared to the same quarter of the prior year.
In addition, GAAP net loss in the third quarter of 2021 included a net expense of $0.7 million relating to vessel write-downs and gain on vessel sales, which was lower than the $45.0 million write-down of assets recorded as part of the GAAP net loss in the third quarter of 2020.
During the third quarter of 2021, Teekay Tankers experienced historically weak crude spot tanker rates due to ongoing OPEC+ production cuts resulting from reduced oil demand related to the COVID-19 pandemic, inventory drawdowns as a result of a backwardated oil price structure, and higher bunker fuel costs. The crude tanker market improved modestly at the beginning of the fourth quarter due to recovering global crude oil trade as the OPEC+ group has been gradually increasing oil supply over the past several months; however, as of October 2021, there are still approximately 4.6 million barrels per day of oil supply cuts remaining in place, relative to pre-COVID-19 production levels.
As we enter the winter months, the crude tanker market could see some support from seasonal factors, as well as incremental oil demand as high coal and natural gas prices continue to cause switching to oil for power generation. Looking further ahead, although the near-term outlook is uncertain due to COVID-19, Teekay Tankers believes many of the leading indicators for a tanker market recovery continue to improve, including increases in OPEC+ and non-OPEC+ production, rapidly declining global oil inventories, which are well below the 5-year average, and positive tanker fleet supply fundamentals as reflected in a low orderbook, increased scrapping, and a very limited amount of new tanker orders.
Please refer to Teekay Tankers' third quarter 2021 earnings release for additional information on the financial results for this entity.

Summary of Recent Events
Teekay Parent
In September 2021, Teekay Parent secured a contract with the Australian Government Department of Defence to provide marine services for five Australian Government vessels for a firm period of six years, with options to extend for up to an additional 10 years. Under the contract, which commenced in October 2021, Teekay Parent provides ship management services, including crewing and training, operating, engineering, maintenance and supply support for these vessels. This contract further builds on Teekay Parent's strategic relationship with the Australian Government, bringing the total number of vessels managed for the Department of Defence to nine vessels.
Teekay LNG
On October 4, 2021, Teekay LNG and an affiliate of Stonepeak, a leading alternative investment firm specializing in infrastructure and real assets, entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the Merger Agreement ), whereby Teekay LNG will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of such affiliate. Under the Merger Agreement and a separate agreement between such affiliate and Teekay Parent, the Stonepeak affiliate will acquire (a) all the issued and outstanding common units of Teekay LNG, including approximately 36.0 million common units owned by Teekay Parent, and (b) 100 percent of Teekay Parent’s ownership in Teekay LNG’s general partner, Teekay GP L.L.C. (Teekay GP ), which includes an economic ownership interest equivalent to approximately 1.6 million Teekay LNG common units, in each case for $17.00 per common unit or common unit equivalent in cash (collectively, the Transaction ). The $17.00 per unit acquisition price represents a premium of 8.3 percent to the closing price of Teekay LNG’s common units on October 1, 2021, and premiums of 12.3 percent and 17.5 percent to the volume-weighted average prices of Teekay LNG’s common units over the prior 60 and 180 trading days, respectively. In addition, common unitholders of record on November 5, 2021 will receive the third quarter common unit distribution of $0.28 75 per unit on November 12, 2021.
The Transaction remains subject to approval by the holders of a majority of Teekay LNG’s outstanding common units and the satisfaction or waiver of other customary closing conditions. The Transaction is expected to close on or soon after December 31, 2021, and the Merger Agreement provides it will not close prior to such date. Teekay Parent, which currently owns approximately 41 percent of Teekay LNG’s outstanding common units, has entered into a voting and support agreement with the Stonepeak affiliate by which Teekay Parent has agreed, among other things and subject to certain conditions, to vote all its Teekay LNG common units in favor of the merger. A special meeting of common unitholders to vote on the Transaction is scheduled for December 1, 2021; all common unitholders of record as of October 28, 2021 will be entitled to vote at the meeting.
As part of the Transaction, Teekay Parent has also agreed to transfer to Teekay LNG, following restructuring of such companies, the ownership of the management services companies that currently deliver the operations for Teekay LNG and certain of its joint ventures under existing management services contracts. Following this transfer, Teekay Parent’s remaining subsidiaries will continue to provide existing services to Teekay Parent, its subsidiaries and other third parties.
After the completion of the Transaction, the common units of Teekay LNG will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange. The Series A and B preferred units of Teekay LNG will continue to trade on the New York Stock Exchange following the completion of the Transaction.
On October 27, 2021, Teekay LNG held a bondholder meeting to approve certain amendments required to complete the Transaction. At the meeting, Teekay LNG received approval for the required amendments to the bonds maturing in 2023 and 2025, respectively. Teekay LNG and the bond trustee will amend the terms of the bonds accordingly.
Teekay Tankers
In March 2021, Teekay Tankers declared options to repurchase six vessels that were under higher-cost long-term sale-leaseback financings, which were repurchased in September 2021 for $129 million . In September 2021, two of these vessels along with two previously repurchased unencumbered vessels were refinanced with new lower-cost sale-leaseback financings totaling $73 million . In November 2021, the remaining four vessels were refinanced with new lower-cost sale-leaseback financings totaling $69 million .
In September 2021, Teekay Tankers sold a 2003-built Aframax vessel for $11.7 million , which resulted in a gain on sale of $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2021.

Definitions and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This release includes various financial measures that are non-GAAP financial measures as defined under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC ). These non-GAAP financial measures, which include Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Shareholders of Teekay, Teekay Parent Free Cash Flow, Net Interest Expense, Adjusted Equity Income and Adjusted EBITDA, are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered substitutes for measures of performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these measures do not have standardized meanings across companies, and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. The Company believes that certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s financial performance, as does management.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Total Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and is adjusted to exclude certain items whose timing or amount cannot be reasonably estimated in advance or that are not considered representative of core operating performance. Such adjustments include foreign currency exchange gains and losses, any write-downs and/or gains, and/or gains and losses on sale of operating assets, adjustments for direct financing and sales-type leases to a cash basis, amortization of in-process revenue contracts, unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments, credit loss provision adjustments, write-downs related to equity-accounted investments, our share of the above items in non-consolidated joint ventures which are accounted for using the equity method of accounting, and other income or loss. Total Adjusted EBITDA also excludes realized gains or losses on interest rate swaps as management, in assessing the Company's performance, views these gains or losses as an element of interest expense and realized gains or losses on interest rate swaps resulting from amendments or terminations of the underlying instruments.
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA represents Adjusted EBITDA from vessels that are consolidated on the Company's financial statements. Adjusted EBITDA from Equity-Accounted Vessels represents the Company's proportionate share of Adjusted EBITDA from its equity-accounted vessels. The Company does not have the unilateral ability to determine whether the cash generated by its equity-accounted vessels is retained within the entity in which the Company holds the equity-accounted investments or distributed to the Company and other owners. In addition, the Company does not control the timing of any such distributions to the Company and other owners. Total Adjusted EBITDA represents Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA plus Adjusted EBITDA from Equity-Accounted Joint Ventures . Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure used by certain investors and management to measure the operational performance of companies. Please refer to Appendices C and E of this release for reconciliations of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss) and equity income, respectively, which are the most directly comparable GAAP measures reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Adjusted Net Income Attributable to Shareholders of Teekay excludes items of income or loss from GAAP net (loss) income that are typically excluded by securities analysts in their published estimates of the Company’s financial results. The Company believes that certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company’s financial performance, as does management. Please refer to Appendix A of this release for a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to net income (loss), and refer to footnote (4) of the statements of income (loss) for a reconciliation of adjusted equity income to equity income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Teekay Parent Financial Measures
Teekay Parent Adjusted EBITDA represents the sum of distributions or dividends (including payments-in-kind) relating to a given quarter (but received by Teekay Parent in the following quarter) as a result of ownership interests in its consolidated publicly-traded subsidiaries (Teekay LNG and Teekay Tankers), Adjusted EBITDA attributed to Teekay Parent’s directly-owned and chartered-in assets, and Teekay Parent’s corporate general and administrative expenditures for the given quarter.
Teekay Parent Free Cash Flow represents Teekay Parent Adjusted EBITDA , less Teekay Parent’s net interest expense and, commencing in the second quarter of 2020, asset retirement costs incurred for the given quarter. Net Interest Expense includes interest expense (excluding non-cash accretion and the amortization of prepaid loan costs), interest income and realized losses on interest rate swaps. Please refer to Appendices B , C, D and E of this release for further details and reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
