EARNINGS RELEASE
TEEKAY TANKERS LTD. REPORTS
FIRST QUARTER 2015 RESULTS
Highlights
| • | Realized the highest first quarter crude tanker spot rates since 2008 and the highest LR2 product tanker spot rates since 2006. |
| • | Reported first quarter 2015 adjusted net income attributable to shareholders(1) of $39.0 million, or $0.34 per share, compared to $16.9 million, or $0.20 per share, in the same period of the prior year. |
| • | Generated first quarter 2015 Free Cash Flow(2) of $0.46 per share, an increase of 31 percent from the fourth quarter of 2014. |
| • | Took delivery of four Long Range 2 (LR2) product tankers and one Aframax tanker for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $230 million during the quarter. |
Hamilton, Bermuda, May 14, 2015—Teekay Tankers Ltd. (Teekay Tankers or the Company) (NYSE: TNK) today reported adjusted net income attributable to its shareholders (1) (as detailed in Appendix A to this release) of $39.0 million, or $0.34 per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, compared to $16.9 million, or $0.20 per share, for the same period in the prior year. The increase is primarily due to stronger spot tanker rates in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the same period in the prior year, an increase in fleet size due to the acquisition of four LR2 product tankers and one Aframax tanker in the first quarter of 2015 and the addition of 10 in-chartered vessels delivered during 2014. Adjusted net income attributable to shareholders excludes a number of specific items that had the net effect of increasing net income attributable to shareholders by $9.6 million, or $0.11 per share, for the three months ended March 31, 2014 as detailed in Appendix A to this release. Including these items, the Company reported, on a GAAP basis, net income attributable to its shareholders of $39.0 million, or $0.34 per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2015, compared to $26.4 million, or $0.31 per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. Net revenues(3) were $100.0 million and $60.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
During the first quarter of 2015, the Company generated $53.0 million, or $0.46 per share, of Free Cash Flow(2), compared to $31.7 million, or $0.35 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2014 due to higher average spot rates earned and an increase in fleet size. On April 2, 2015, Teekay Tankers declared a dividend of $0.03 per share for the first quarter of 2015, which was paid on April 30, 2015 to all shareholders of record on April 17, 2015. Since the Company’s inception, it has declared dividends in 30 consecutive quarters.
“The Company experienced the strongest quarter in six years with free cash flow of $53 million, or $0.46 per share, resulting in an annualized free cash flow yield of 32 percent based on the average share price during the first quarter,” commented Kevin Mackay, Chief Executive Officer of Teekay Tankers.
“Over the past four months, crude spot tanker rates have achieved the highest average levels since the strong winter market of 2008,” Mr. Mackay continued. “The continued strength in the tanker market reflects the strong tanker market fundamentals on the back of a shrinking mid-size tanker fleet, increased crude oil trade volumes and growing global oil demand. Low global oil prices, high crude oil supply, and seasonal factors such as increased oil demand and winter weather delays, have provided further support to the crude tanker market during the first quarter. Crude spot tanker rates have remained counter-seasonally strong into the second quarter of 2015 due to record-high Saudi Arabian oil production and a relatively light refinery maintenance schedule as refiners continue to take advantage of positive margins.”
Mr. Mackay added, “With approximately 85 percent of our fleet operating in the spot tanker market over the next 12 months and a low cash break-even rate, we believe Teekay Tankers is well-positioned to benefit from the fundamental strength in the global tanker market.”

Summary of Recent Developments
New Fleet Deliveries
In the first quarter of 2015, Teekay Tankers completed the acquisition of four LR2 product tankers and one Aframax tanker for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $230 million. With an average age of 3.8 years, the five new vessels reduce the average age of Teekay Tankers’ fleet by approximately one year. The Company took delivery of three vessels in February and two vessels in March. All four LR2 product tankers are currently trading in the Taurus LR2 pool and the Aframax tanker is on voyage charter until vetting inspections are completed for joining the Teekay Aframax RSA.
Time Charter-In Vessels
During the first quarter of 2015, Teekay Tankers secured time charter-in contracts for one additional Aframax vessel and one additional LR2 vessel, bringing Teekay Tankers’ total time charter-in fleet to 12 vessels. The new time charter-in contracts have an average daily rate of $21,250 and firm contract periods of 24 months, with extension options. The time charter-in contract for the Aframax vessel commenced in April 2015 and the LR2 vessel contract is expected to commence in the second quarter of 2015.
Time Charter-Out Vessel
In April 2015, Teekay Tankers entered into a time charter-out contract for one Aframax vessel. The new time charter-out contract has a daily rate of $24,000 and a firm contract period of 12 months.

Tanker Market
The positive momentum in crude tanker spot rates during the fourth quarter of 2014 continued into the first quarter of 2015, with rates reaching the highest average first quarter levels since 2008. The strength in crude tanker spot rates was primarily a result of continued low global oil prices, high crude oil supply and winter weather delays. Low global oil prices and high crude oil supply have positively impacted tanker rates in a number of ways, including the following:
| • | Lower oil prices are driving onshore strategic and commercial stockpiling, particularly in China where the government continues to fill the second stage of its Strategic Petroleum Reserves; |
| • | Refinery throughput has remained high as refiners take advantage of strong refining margins; and |
| • | Reduced bunker fuel prices have been positive for tanker earnings due to lower voyage operating costs. |
Crude tanker rates have been counter-seasonally strong in the first half of the second quarter of 2015 due to increased oil demand, which has resulted from on-going low oil prices, record-high Saudi Arabian oil production, and a relatively light refinery maintenance schedule as refiners defer scheduled maintenance to take advantage of strong refining margins.
LR2 product tanker rates in the first quarter of 2015 averaged the highest for a first quarter since 2006. LR2 product tanker rates have been supported by the ramp up of new refineries in the Middle East, which has encouraged long-haul product exports, while Asian naphtha imports remain historically strong. Low oil prices continue to put downward pressure on naphtha prices in relation to liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), which has led some petrochemical plants to consume naphtha rather than LPG for feedstock purposes.
The global tanker fleet grew by 3.3 million deadweight tonnes (mdwt), or 0.7 percent, in the first quarter of 2015. The global Suezmax fleet grew by four vessels, or 0.8 percent, while the uncoated Aframax fleet grew by only one vessel, or 0.2 percent, and the LR2 fleet grew by 0.8 mdwt, or 2.8 percent. Looking ahead, the global tanker fleet is forecast to grow 1.5 to 2.5 percent in 2015, with growth again weighted towards the product tanker sectors. Another year of negative fleet growth is expected for the Suezmax and uncoated Aframax sectors in 2015.
In April 2015, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) held its outlook for 2015 global economic growth at 3.5 percent, consistent with its January 2015 forecast. This marks a modest improvement from global economic growth of 3.4 percent in 2014. Based on an average of forecasts from the International Energy Agency, the Energy Information Administration, and OPEC, global oil demand is forecast to grow by 1.1 million barrels day (mb/d) in 2015, which is 0.3 mb/d higher than demand growth in 2014.
The outlook for crude tanker fleet utilization and spot tanker rates is expected to remain positive in 2015 based on a shrinking mid-size crude tanker fleet and a continued increase in long-haul tanker demand as more crude oil moves from the Atlantic to Pacific basin. The impact of low oil prices is also expected to provide support for tanker demand in the first half of 2015.

| (1) | In 2010, the Company invested in two term loans (the Loans) secured by two 2010-built VLCC vessels. The borrowers under the Loans were in default on their interest payment obligations since the first quarter of 2013, and subsequently, in default of the repayment of the loan principal from the loan maturity date in July 2013. In March 2014, the Company took full ownership of the vessels held as collateral in satisfaction of the Loans and accrued interest and recorded the vessels at their fair value at that date. As a result, the Company recognized an additional $9.1 million of interest income owing under the Loans for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. In May 2014, the Company sold to Tanker Investments Limited (TIL) these two vessels for aggregate proceeds of $154 million plus related working capital on closing of $1.7 million. |
| (2) | The restructuring charge amount relates to redundancy costs in connection with the termination of Australian seafarers of the Hugli Spirit upon the completion of the contract with its customer during the three months ended March 31, 2015. The other revenues amount represents the associated 100 percent reimbursement of the redundancy cost from the customer. |
| (3) | Includes realized losses relating to interest rate swaps that relate to amounts actually paid by the Company of $2.5 million, $2.5 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014, respectively. |
| (4) | Included in equity income are the Company’s proportionate share of earnings from its investment in TIL, which owned 14 conventional tankers at March 31, 2015, its 50 percent interest in High-Q joint venture (High-Q), which owns one VLCC tanker, and its 50 percent interest in Teekay Tanker Operations Ltd (TTOL), which owns Teekay’s conventional tanker commercial and technical management operations. The total equity income of $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 includes a loss of $0.8 million, which was the Company’s proportionate share of items included in Appendix A to this release, related primarily to a cancellation fee paid to the joint venture partner upon the acquisition of its 49 percent share of Teekay Marine Limited (TML), unrealized gains or losses on derivative instruments and foreign exchange items. |

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This release contains forward-looking statements (as defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) which reflect management’s current views with respect to certain future events and performance, including statements regarding: the crude oil and refined product tanker market fundamentals, including the balance of supply and demand in the tanker market, estimated negative growth in the world tanker fleet, estimated growth in global oil demand and crude oil tanker demand, changes in long-haul crude tanker movements from the Atlantic to Pacific basins, tanker fleet utilization and spot tanker rates; the effect of lower global oil prices, including the potential impact on oil stockpiling, refinery throughput and bunker fuel prices; TIL’s anticipated acquisition of six vessels; and the timing of a new charter-in vessel delivery. The following factors are among those that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties, and that should be considered in evaluating any such statement: changes in the production of or demand for oil or refined products; changes in trading patterns significantly affecting overall vessel tonnage requirements; greater or less than anticipated levels of tanker newbuilding orders and deliveries and greater or less than anticipated rates of tanker scrapping; changes in global oil prices; changes in applicable industry laws and regulations and the timing of implementation of new laws and regulations; delays in delivery of a new charter-in vessel; and other factors discussed in Teekay Tankers’ filings from time to time with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. The Company expressly disclaims any obligation or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in the Company’s expectations with respect thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any such statement is based.
