Recent Highlights

Amendment to 2010 Credit Facility, converting it from a term loan to a reducing revolving credit facility

On July 12, 2011, the Company executed an amendment to its Credit Facility dated June 2, 2010 with Nordea Bank Finland plc, acting through its New York branch, DnB NOR Bank ASA, acting through its New York branch, and ABN AMRO Bank N.V. (“2010 Credit Facility”).  The amendment converts the 2010 Credit Facility from a term loan to a reducing revolving credit facility.  This gives the Company the ability to pay down the outstanding balance when it has excess cash and re-borrow from the total available commitments as needed.  As of August 16, 2011, the outstanding balance was $72.0 million and an additional $65 million was available to be re-borrowed.  The availability under the facility reduces by $4.1 million each quarter until the facility matures on June 2, 2015.

Delivery of two time chartered-in vessels

The Company took delivery of two time chartered-in vessels in July 2011.  The Histria Perla, a 2005 built Handymax product tanker (40,471 DWT), and the Histria Coral, a 2006 built Handymax product tanker (40,426 DWT), have been chartered-in for two years at a rate of $12,750 and $13,250 per day for the first and second years, respectively.  Each charter agreement includes an option for the Company to extend the charter for an additional year at a rate of $14,500 per day.  The Histria Perla was delivered on July 15, 2011, and the Histria Coral was delivered on July 17, 2011.

On June 6, 2011, the Company announced that it signed contracts with Hyundai Mipo Dockyard Co. Ltd. of South Korea to construct five 52,000 DWT product tankers for approximately $37.4 million each.  These vessels will be the first to be delivered from the Hyundai Group with new propulsion technology including the 'B' type ultra-long stroke electronically controlled main engine.  These enhancements are expected to reduce the vessels' consumption of fuel by approximately 10% compared to existing designs.  The vessels are scheduled to be delivered to the Company between August 2012 and November 2012.  As of August 16, 2011, an aggregate of $18.7 million has been paid to the shipyard for the five construction contracts (for estimated future payments and dates see below).

Follow on Public Offering and Exercise of Over-Allotment Option

On May 18, 2011, the Company closed a sale of 6,000,000 shares of common stock from a follow-on public offering and also closed on the underwriters' over-allotment option to purchase 900,000 additional common shares at an offering price of $10.50 per share.  The Company received net proceeds of approximately $68.5 million, including the exercise of the underwriters’ option and after deducting underwriters' discounts and offering expenses.  There were 31,801,594 shares outstanding as of June 30, 2011 and August 16, 2011.

Delivery of STI Coral and STI Diamond

2011 $150 Million Credit Facility

On May 3, 2011, the Company executed a credit facility with Nordea Bank Finland plc, acting through its New York branch, DnB NOR Bank ASA, acting through its New York branch, and ABN AMRO Bank N.V. for a senior secured term loan facility of up to $150 million ("2011 Credit Facility").  Borrowings under the 2011 Credit Facility are available to be drawn down until May 3, 2012 and bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 2.75% per annum when our debt to capitalization (total debt plus equity) ratio is less than 45%, 3.00% per annum when our debt to capitalization ratio is greater than or equal to 45% but less than or equal to 50%, and 3.25% per annum when our debt to capitalization ratio is greater than 50%..  The 2011 Credit Facility matures on May 3, 2017 and will be used to finance up to 50% of the cost of future acquisition of vessels, which will be the collateral for the credit facility.

In May 2011, the Company drew down an aggregate of $35 million under the 2011 Credit Facility to finance the delivery of STI Coral and STI Diamond.  As of August 16, 2011, the facility had an outstanding balance of $35.0 million and $115 million was available for future vessel acquisitions.

Other 2011 highlights

Delivery of time chartered-in vessels

On January 26, 2011, the Company took delivery of Kraslava, a 2007 built Handymax ice-class 1B product tanker.  This vessel was chartered-in for one year at $12,070 per day.

On February 6, 2011, Scorpio Tankers took delivery of Histria Azure, a 2007 built Handymax product tanker. This vessel was chartered-in for one year at $12,250 per day.

On March 1, 2011, the Company took delivery of Krisjanis Valdemars, a 2007 built Handymax ice-class 1B product tanker, which the Company previously agreed to time charter-in.  This vessel was chartered-in for 10 months at $12,000 per day.  The agreement also includes a profit and loss sharing provision whereby 50% of all profits and losses (the difference between the vessel's pool earnings and the charter hire expense) will be shared with the owner of the vessel.

STI Spirit Credit Facility

On March 17, 2011, Scorpio Tankers drew down $27.3 million from a senior secured term loan facility with DVB Bank SE (“STI Spirit Credit Facility”).  The loan is secured by the STI Spirit, which was acquired on November 10, 2010.  The STI Spirit Credit Facility matures on March 17, 2018, and the loan bears interest at LIBOR plus a margin of 2.75% per annum.  The loan will be repaid over 28 equal quarterly installments and a lump sum payment at maturity.  The quarterly installments, which commenced three months after the drawdown, were calculated using an 18 year amortization profile.  As of August 16, 2011, the facility was fully drawn down with an outstanding balance of $26.9 million.

Current Liquidity

As of August 16, 2011, Scorpio Tankers had $22.6 million in cash and $65.0 million available to draw down from its 2010 Credit Facility.

As of August 16, 2011 Scorpio Tankers outstanding debt balance is $134.0 million.

2011 Debt Repayments

As mentioned above, the 2010 Credit Facility has been amended to convert it to a reducing revolving credit facility.  In July 2011, STI re-paid $65 million into the revolving credit facility and as a result, no principal payments are currently due in 2011.

The 2011 debt repayments for the STI Spirit Credit Facility and 2011 Credit Facility are as follows:

3rd Quarter: $1.1 million

4th Quarter: $1.1 million

Drydocks and Off-hire

The Venice was in drydock from the end of June 2011 through the beginning of July 2011.  Estimated total cost incurred was approximately $0.7 million, and the vessel was offhire for 11 days.

Drydock dates are only estimates and can change at any time based on a variety of factors including current repair needs, changes in industry certification or government requirements, and other factors.

The STI Harmony was drydocked in July 2011 for an estimated cost of $0.8 million and 20 days of offhire.

The STI Highlander is scheduled to be drydocked in the third quarter for an estimated cost of $0.7 million and 20 days of offhire.

Explanation of Variances on the Second Quarter 2011 Financial Results

For the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company incurred a net loss of $2.7 million compared to net income of $0.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2010.  The following were the significant changes between the two periods:

·   Vessel revenue increased $13.7 million to $21.0 million as a result of an increase in the average number of operating vessels to 15.51 from 3.84 for the three month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  This increase was offset by a decrease in daily time charter equivalent per vessel, to $13,783 from $20,721 (see the breakdown of daily TCE averages below).

·   Vessel operating costs increased $4.6 million to $7.5 million as a result of the increase in the average number of operating vessels noted above, offset by a decrease in daily operating expenses to $7,388 from $8,370 for the three month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

·   Voyage expenses increased $1.4 million to $1.7 million as a result of the STI Coral and STI Diamond operating in the spot market for 98 days in the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the STI Conqueror operating in the spot market for 29 days in the three months ended June 30, 2010.

·   Charter hire expense increased $5.1 million as a result of the delivery of the BW Zambesi in the fourth quarter of 2010, the Kraslava, Histria Azure and Krisjanis Valdemars in the first quarter of 2011 and the Kazdanga in the second quarter of 2011.  See the Company’s Fleet List below for the terms of these agreements.

·   The increase in depreciation expense of $2.7 million to $4.4 million is a result of an increase in the average number of owned vessels to 11.13 from 3.84 for the three month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  This increase was partially offset by an increase in the estimated residual values of the Company’s owned vessels from the final quarter of 2010 onwards which resulted in a consequential reduction in depreciation.

·   The increase in general and administrative expense of $1.6 million to $3.0 million was primarily driven by an increase in the Company’s overhead expenses as a result of incremental costs incurred as a result of operating as a public company (the Company’s initial public offering closed on April 6, 2010) and additional compensation arrangements that were entered into as part of the initial public offering.  This was specifically driven by an increase in the amortization of restricted stock issued in June 2010 and January 2011, salary costs, professional fees, and other related expenses.  

·   Interest expense increased $1.5 million to $2.1million as a result of interest expense on a higher debt balance at June 30, 2011 as compared to June 30, 2010 in addition to fees associated with our new credit facilities which were signed in March and May of 2011.  

·   The decrease of $0.1 million in realized and unrealized losses on derivative financial instruments was due to changes in the fair value of an interest rate swap, which was related to the 2005 Credit Facility.  This swap was terminated on April 9, 2010.

(1)   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 less the number of days the vessel is off-hire for drydock and repairs.

(2)   Vessel operating costs per day represent vessel operating costs divided by the number of days the vessel is owned during the period.

Business Strategy, Dividend Policy, and Share Buyback Program

Business Strategy

The Company’s primary objectives are to profitably grow the business and emerge as a major operator of medium-sized tanker vessels.  The Company intends to acquire modern, high-quality tankers through timely and selective acquisitions.  The Company is currently concentrating on product or coated tankers because of the fundamentals of this segment, which the Company believes includes:

 ●  reduced order book

Dividend Policy

The Company does not have immediate plans to pay dividends but will continue to assess the dividend policy.  In the future, the board of directors may determine it is in the best interest of the Company to pay dividends.
