The key questions here, which I don't have the answer to, are likely:

 

1) Who are the contracts with?

2) Where are the oil fields that they are serving on the cost curve?

 

Basically if oil comes down to $40/bbl, how much strain will the majors they are working for take?

We saw in the last oil price collapse that revenue stayed fairly intact so I believe the theory that it's a stable business; this is almost a BIP sort of play.

 

Big question I had was about this promise of $200mn of EBITDA improvement that was supposed to come this year. I didn't see it last quarter, and their outlook for Q3 was just as bad as Q2.

 

Haven't done in depth analysis on this, but BAM are no fools, so I suspect it's worth the time.

There is more support for the 10x multiple as a direct comp (Knot Offshore) has a higher EBITDA multiple & there are one 2 competitors in the shuttle tanker market.  Although Seaspan has excellent management & counterparties, container lease & shipping much more competitive than shuttle tankers.

Intrigued by this. Just starting DD.

 

Not immediately obviously dirt cheap on their nonGAAP DCF measure. At first glance I can't justify the claims linked above of 25-20% FCF yields. How does DCF inflect from here?

 

Maintenance capex looks stupidly high (p10 of this: https://www.teekay.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/TOO-Q2-18-ER-Presentation-v_FINAL_FINAL.pdf).

 

Much more work to do!

There a few things that are going on here.  You have underearning FPSO/FSO assets that are being provided to some users on a temporary price reduction basis.  These price reductions should be unwound in 2019.  You also have some assets that are not generating any revenue.  These include some assets that may never generate revenues but if oil stays high there is a chance & finally the re-investment opportunity from FPSO/FSOs to shuttle tankers should be able to generate the before mentioned 20/25% DCF yield on today's prices.  The depreciation is high due to restating shuttle tanker life from 25 to 20 years and depreciation associated with some assets TOO would not invest in if they were investing today.

Take a look at the BBU disclosures as they purchased this entity as one of their higher expected return investments.  TOO also discloses a quarterly DCF bridge but it is quite noisey with all of the FPSO/FSO activity.  There is also a Shuttle Tanker stand alone financials on the TOO websites which provides some insight into that business.

Im just looking at morningstar and deduct capex from  operating cash flow.

 

Last 12 months I believe they had significant new build obligations that were being completed.

 

Last quarter they generated $47.8mn cash from ops and spent $14.4 in capex, with $10.4mn in asset sales, so really only about $4.4mn in net capex (data from CapIQ).

 

My question is really what's the normalized level of FCF from the business. I know capex was elevated recently, but I don't have a great sense of the earnings power or margins or capex requirements yet as I haven't really looking into this in dept.
