Comments from Management:
Bing Chen, President and Chief Executive Officer of Atlas, commented: "Atlas delivered another year of strong operating and financial performance in 2021. Since December 2020 and through to December 31, 2021, our containership leasing business grew by 890,750 TEU, 73 vessels net, and $12.9 billion of gross contracted cash flow primarily contributed by the 70 newbuild, four pre-owned vessels acquired, and 68 forward charter fixings. With consistent operational excellence, we have delivered three newbuild vessels ahead of schedule and expect all vessels to be in operation by year-end 2024, as scheduled. This modern newbuild program with $7.6 billion of fully funded investment is a testament to our quality growth and approach to prudent capital allocation.  We continue to deliver value and strengthen our customer partnerships through our creative turnkey solutions and integrated platform.

Our resilient business model remains insulated from the ongoing global supply chain disruptions. The sustainability of our business will further differentiate us when the market returns to normal or through volatile cycles. 

Despite the industry and pandemic challenges, our Mobile Power Generation business delivered solid performance during 2021. While continuing to drive operational excellence across the business, we have successfully executed our 3^rd consecutive Mexicali project and serviced IID in California marking our first entry into the US market. We remain disciplined to expand our services into new geographies, such as Brazil, to transform business.

As Atlas continues to deliver to new heights, we remain focused on growing quality and long-term contracted cash flows and recycling capital prudently to fuel our sustainable growth, offering predictable financial returns through all market cycles."

Graham Talbot, CFO of Atlas, commented, "During 2021, we made significant progress developing each of our businesses while extending our competitive lead. 2021 provided an opportunity to showcase the growth potential unlocked when combining our industry leading containership leasing platform with our reshaped and robust balance sheet. Our focus on liquidity and access to capital allowed us to take advantage of investment opportunities in the containership segment totaling $7.6 billion since December 2020, all on long-term leases. These investments will expand our capacity by 848,000 TEU and secure $11.4 billion in predictable, long-term cash flows for Atlas over the next 20+ years, resulting in $18.0 billion gross contracted cash flow at year end. We are beginning 2022 with a significant liquidity position and all capex fully funded through attractively priced long-term financings, which we believe will allow us to continue pursuing attractive opportunities across our Maritime and Energy platforms."

Update on Strategic Initiatives

We executed on several important initiatives during 2021 and year-to-date:

1) Executed agreements for aggregate investment of $7.6 billion⁽¹⁾ toward newbuild containerships backed by long-term lease contracts. These investments enhance the long-term attractiveness of our Containership Leasing portfolio with asset classes designed to pave the way for the future of global trade. Concurrent with executing shipbuilding contracts, long-term leases were locked in with a diversified roster of the leading global containership liners. Committed financing arrangements were executed prior to year end 2021 for all newbuild assets, significantly de-risking our capex obligations. Three of these newbuild vessels were delivered ahead of schedule in 2021, and deliveries will continue through 2024.

2) Recycled capital into new growth. With the attractive conditions in the containership market, we are actively marketing non-core assets.  During 2021, Seaspan entered into agreements to sell a total of seven vessels, including the sale of one vessel which was concluded during the fourth quarter of 2021 and a second vessel which was concluded in February 2022.  The divestment of the remaining vessels is expected to be completed in the first half of 2022, subject to closing conditions.

3) Entered new markets for Mobile Power Generation.  In December 2021 and January 2022, APR Energy signed agreements to provide a total of 420 MW of power generation capacity in the US and Brazil.  This is the first time APR Energy has entered the Brazilian market. We believe that the country will be strategically significant as we further build out our Mobile Power Generation platform.

(1)	Including agreements in December 2020.

Significant Developments in the Fourth Quarter of 2021 & Subsequent Events

Containership Newbuild Program

Seaspan accepted delivery of two 12,200 TEU vessels during the quarter, two months ahead of schedule.  Each vessel commenced an 18-year bareboat charter upon delivery.

Containership Leasing Developments

Seaspan entered into proactive lease extensions for eight operating vessels in the fourth quarter of 2021.  As of December 31, 2021, there are five remaining charter roll-offs in 2022.

In October 2021, Seaspan sold one 4,250 TEU vessel for $38.3 million, recognizing a gain on the sale of $15.9 million. The ultimate purchaser of the vessel was Zhejiang Energy Atlas Marine Technology Co., Ltd., which is 50% owned by Atlas (the "ZE JV"). Seaspan continues to manage the ship operations of the vessel.

In December, Seaspan entered into agreements to sell six vessels with one sale completed in February 2022 for gross proceeds of $32.8 million.  Seaspan continues to manage the ship operations of this vessel.  The remaining five sales are expected to be completed in the first half of 2022, subject to closing conditions. 

Kroll Credit Rating Upgrade

Kroll Bond Rating Agency provided Seaspan an unsecured issuance rating of BB+, in line with its recently upgraded BB+ corporate rating.

Mobile Power Generation Developments

APR Energy will provide Evolution Power Partners with up to 226 MW of gas power generation capacity in Itaguaí, Rio De Janeiro, for a minimum of twelve consecutive months commencing in May 2022.   Additionally, APR Energy entered into a contract with a US counterparty to provide a dry rental of five turbines representing 120 MW for a minimum of twelve consecutive months commencing in February 2022.  APR Energy also entered into a contract with Imperial Irrigation District ("IID") for three turbines to provide grid stabilization solutions to Southern California.  The contract with IID represents their first renewal with APR Energy.

Financing Developments

On December 23, 2021, Seaspan completed the last of its financings related to its 70 vessel newbuild program, including three vessels delivered in 2021. The proceeds from these financings total approximately $6.9 billion and will be drawn throughout construction to fund a total investment of approximately $7.6 billion.

On February 16, 2022, Seaspan closed its new $250.0 million 3-year unsecured revolving credit facility (the "New Seaspan RCF"), which replaces it's $150.0 million 2-year unsecured revolving credit facility. The New Seaspan RCF includes several new lenders and improvements driven by Seaspan's improving credit quality, including greater liquidity, tenor, and pricing.

Distribution

On January 5, 2022, the Board of Directors of Atlas declared a quarterly distribution in the amount of $0.125 per common share. Regular quarterly dividends on the Series D, Series H, Series I and Series J preferred shares were also declared. All dividends were paid on January 31, 2022.

Financial Results Summary:

Revenue growth of 18.1% to $428.2 million and 15.9% and $1,646.6 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2021, 23.7% revenue growth was attributable to the Containership Leasing segment, of which 81.0% was attributable to the existing asset base, and 19.0% was attributable to assets added during the year. For the quarter ended December 31, 2021, there was a 4.9% decrease attributable to the Mobile Power Generation segment.  The lower revenue is due to an injunction at one of our project sites. We are indemnified for the lost revenue and have recognized a corresponding recovery under the acquisition agreement for this indemnity.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, 16.7% revenue growth was attributable to the Containership Leasing segment, of which 87.6% was attributable to the existing asset base, and 12.4% was attributable to assets added during the year. For the year ended December 31, 2021, there was a 0.8% decrease attributable to the Mobile Power Generation segment.

Adjusted EBITDA growth of 18.8% to $283.5 million and 20.8% to $1,116.2 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively compared to the same periods in 2020. The growth was primarily driven by the increase in revenue.

FFO Per Share growth of 14.3% to $0.72 and 20.2% to $2.98 for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2020. The growth was primarily driven by the increase in revenue.

Diluted EPS was $0.48 and $1.26 for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively compared to loss per diluted share of $0.17 for quarter ended December 31, 2020 and earnings per diluted share of $0.50 for the year ended December 31, 2020.  The three months and year ended December 31, 2020 results include $117.9 million of non-cash goodwill impairment.  The year ended December 31, 2021 includes a $127.0 million non-cash charge related to loss on debt extinguishment.  Excluding these non-cash charges, the increases in diluted earnings per share are primarily due to increases in revenue.

Adjusted Diluted EPS growth of 44.8% to $0.42 and 73.2% to $1.68 for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2021, respectively, compared to $0.29 and $0.97 for the same periods in 2020.

(1)	The change in contingent consideration asset relates to the mark to market impact of contingent consideration related to the acquisition of APR. Pursuant to the acquisition agreement, the sellers of APR agreed to compensate the Company for losses on cash repatriation from a foreign jurisdiction related to cash generated from specified contracts less relevant costs (the "Peso Contingent Asset Arrangement"). The sellers' indemnification obligations will end on April 30, 2022, or earlier if certain conditions are met. The sellers of APR further agreed to compensate the Company for losses on sale or disposal of certain fixed asset and inventory items. The value of compensation receivable from the sellers is accounted for as a contingent consideration asset.
(2)	Loss on foreign currency repatriation relates to losses recognized on cash repatriation from a foreign jurisdiction, where compensation is receivable through the Peso Contingent Asset Arrangement. Compensation is made by the sellers in cash or return of previously issued equity, which is offset against the contingent consideration asset when received and therefore, is not reflected in the income statement.

Definitions of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This release includes various financial measures that are non-GAAP financial measures as defined under the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). These non-GAAP financial measures, which include FFO, FFO Per Share, Diluted ("FFO Per Share"), Adjusted Earnings, Adjusted Earnings Per Share, Diluted ("Adjusted EPS"), Adjusted EBITDA, Net Debt, Operating Net Debt and Total Borrowings, are intended to provide additional information and are not prepared in accordance with, and should not be considered substitutes for financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of the non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool.

FFO and FFO Per Share represent net earnings adjusted for depreciation and amortization, gains/losses on sale, unrealized change in fair value of derivative instruments, loss on foreign currency repatriation, change in contingent consideration asset, preferred share dividends accumulated, impairment, loss on debt extinguishment and certain other items that management believes are not representative of its operating performance. FFO and FFO Per Share are useful performance measures because they exclude those items that management believes are not representative of its performance.

FFO and FFO Per Share are not defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings, earnings per share or any other indicator of the Company's performance required to be reported by GAAP. In addition, these measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies.

Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EPS represent net earnings adjusted for preferred share dividends accumulated, impairment, loss on debt extinguishment, gains/losses on sale and certain other items that management believes are not representative of its ongoing performance.

Adjusted Earnings and Adjusted EPS are not defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings, net earnings per share or any other indicator of the Company's performance required to be reported by GAAP. In addition, these measures may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies and the closest measure is net earnings. Management believes that these metrics are helpful in providing investors with information to assess the ongoing operations of the business.

Adjusted EBITDA represents net earnings before interest expense and income, tax expense, depreciation and amortization, impairment, write-down and gains/losses on sale, gains/losses on derivative instruments, loss on foreign currency repatriation, change in contingent consideration asset, loss on debt extinguishment, other expenses and certain other items that management believes are not representative of its operating performance.

Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors in assessing the Company's results from operations. Management believes that this measure is useful in assessing performance and highlighting trends on an overall basis. Management also believes that this performance measure can be useful in comparing its results with those of other companies, even though other companies may not calculate this measure in the same way. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA is net earnings. Adjusted EBITDA is not defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net earnings, or any other indicator of the Company's performance required to be reported by GAAP.

The Company is unable to provide reconciliations of forward-looking Adjusted EBITDA and its components to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures on a forward-looking basis because the necessary components that impact those GAAP financial measures cannot be reliably predicted. These components include, but are not limited to, income tax expense, gains/losses on sale, loss on derivative instruments, impairment, change in contingent consideration asset and loss on foreign currency repatriation. Such components may have a significant, and potentially unpredictable, impact on our future financial results.

Total Borrowings represents long-term debt and other financing arrangements, excluding deferred financing fees.  Operating borrowings represents Total Borrowings less amounts related to vessels under construction.

Net Debt represents Total Borrowings before debt discount and fair value adjustments, net of cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash. Operating Net Debt represents Net Debt less amounts related to vessels under construction. 

Net Debt and Total Borrowings provide useful information to investors in assessing the Company's leverage. Management believes these measures are useful in assessing the Company's ability to settle contracted debt payments. Management also believes that these leverage measurements can be useful in comparing the Company's position with those of other companies, even though other companies may not calculate these measures in the same way. The GAAP measure most directly comparable to Net Debt and Total Borrowings is the total of long-term debt and other financing arrangements. Net Debt and Total Borrowings are not defined by GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to long-term debt and other financing arrangements, or any other indicator of the Company's financial position required to be reported by GAAP.
