Updated information for the other long-term liability arrangements have enabled the Company to better determine the principal and interest portions of the current period repayments. As a result, the comparative balance sheet has been reclassified to reflect only principal portions of current payments which result in $12,185,000 being reclassified to the long-term portion of Other long-term liabilities at December 31, 2010.

Other long-term liability:

The Company, through certain of its wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries, has entered into non-recourse or limited recourse sale-leaseback arrangements with financial institutions to fund the construction of certain vessels under existing shipbuilding contracts.

In these arrangements, the Company has agreed to transfer the vessels to the lessors and, commencing from the delivery of the vessels from the shipyard, lease the vessel back from the lessor over the applicable lease term. In the arrangements where the shipbuilding contracts are novated to the lessors, the lessors assume responsibility for the remaining payments under the shipbuilding contracts.

The leases in these arrangements are capital leases in the consolidated financial statements and, during the construction period, the lessees are the owners of the vessels under construction for accounting purposes.

In each of the arrangements, the lessors are wholly-owned subsidiaries of financial institutions that are variable interest entities and whose only assets and operations are to hold the Company’s leases and vessels. The Company, through the Management Agreements (note 2), operates the vessels during the lease term and supervises the vessels’ construction before the lease term begins. As a result, the Company is the primary beneficiary of the lessors and consolidates the lessors for financial reporting purposes. No gain or loss is recognized upon initial consolidation of the lessors. The liabilities of the lessor are loans due to the associated financial institutions and are non-recourse to the Company. The amounts funded to the lessors materially match the funding received by the Company’s subsidiaries. As a result, the amounts due by the Company’s subsidiaries to the lessors have been included in Other Long-term Liabilities as representing the lessor’s loans due to the applicable financial institutions.

8.	Share capital:

(a)

Common shares:

The Company has a dividend reinvestment program (DRIP) that allows interested shareholders to reinvest all or a portion of cash dividends received on the Company’s common shares. If new common shares are issued by the Company, the reinvestment price is equal to the average price of the Company’s common shares for the five days immediately prior to the reinvestment, less a discount. The discount rate is set by the Board of Directors and is currently 3%. If common shares are purchased in the open market, the reinvestment price is equal to the average price per share paid.

The class C common shares are incentive shares that were issued to the Manager for strategic services that are entitled to share in incremental dividends, based on specified sharing ratios, once dividends on the Company’s class A common shares reach certain specified targets, beginning with the first target of $0.485 per share per quarter, and when the Company has an operating surplus sufficient to pay such a dividend. The class C common shares are not convertible to class A common shares. At June 30, 2011, the incentive shares do not have rights to incremental dividends based on the operating surplus calculation of the Company.

(b)

Preferred shares:

The Company had the following preferred shares outstanding:


	Shares				Liquidation preference
Series	authorized		issued		June 30, 2011		December 31, 2010
A		315,000		200,000	$	255,959	$	241,382
B		260,000		260,000		26,000		26,000
C		40,000,000		14,000,000		350,000		—

The Series A preferred shares accrue a 12% non-cash cumulative dividend per annum until January 31, 2014, which may increase to 15% per annum thereafter as described below.

The Series A preferred shares automatically convert to class A common shares at a price of $15.00 per share (the Exercise Price) at any time on or after January 31, 2014 if the trailing 30 day average trading price of the common shares is equal to or above the Exercise Price.

If at any time on or after January 31, 2014, the trailing average price of the common shares is less than the Exercise Price, the Company has the option to convert the Series A preferred shares at the Exercise Price and pay the Investors 115% of the difference between the Exercise Price and the trailing 30 day average price of the common shares. The Company has the option to pay the difference in common shares or in cash.

(b)

Preferred shares (continued):

Upon certain triggering events, such as a liquidation, change of control, or merger, amongst others, the investors have the option to convert, in whole or in part, their Series A preferred shares to common shares at the Exercise Price. Depending on the nature of the triggering event, the liquidation preference of the Series A preferred shares will convert at the Exercise Price, or the liquidation preference will convert at the lower of (i) the Exercise Price; or (ii) the price at which the Series A preferred shares are valued in the transaction giving rise to the triggering event.

If the Series A preferred shares have not converted into common shares on or after January 31, 2014, the dividend rate will increase to 15% per annum. The Investors have the option to have the dividend paid in cash or to continue to increase the liquidation preference of the Series A preferred shares by 15% per annum.

The Series B preferred shares were issued for cash and pay cumulative quarterly dividends in cash at a rate of 5% per annum from their issuance date of May 27, 2010 to June 30, 2012, 8% per annum from July 1, 2012 to June 30, 2013 and 10% per annum thereafter. The Series B preferred shares are redeemable at any time at the option of the Company at an amount equal to the liquidation preference plus unpaid dividends. The Series B preferred shares are not convertible into common shares and are not redeemable at the option of the holder.

On January 28, 2011, the Company issued 10,000,000 Series C preferred shares for gross proceeds of $250,000,000. The Series C preferred shares were issued for cash and pay cumulative quarterly dividends at a rate 9.5% per annum from their date of issuance. At any time on or after January 30, 2016, the Series C preferred shares may be redeemed, in whole or in part at a redemption price of $25.00 per share plus unpaid dividends. If the Company fails to comply with certain covenants, default on any of its credit facilities, fail to pay dividends or if the Series C preferred shares are not redeemed at the option of the Company, in whole by January 30, 2017, the dividend rate payable on the Series C preferred shares shall increase quarterly, subject to an aggregate maximum rate per annum of 25% prior to January 30, 2016 and 30% thereafter, to a rate that is 1.25 times the dividend rate payable on the Series C preferred shares. The Series C preferred shares are not convertible into common shares and are not redeemable at the option of the holder. The initial dividend on the Series C preferred shares was paid on May 2, 2011.

On May 25, 2011, the Company issued an additional 4,000,000 Series C preferred shares for gross proceeds of $108,600,000, or $27.15 per share. The gross proceeds include accrued dividends to May 25, 2011. The second issuance of Series C preferred shares were issued for cash and have the same terms as the initial issuance of Series C preferred shares.

9.	Earnings per share:

To the extent that earnings per share (EPS) for class A common shares exceeds the first target dividend level of $0.485 per share per quarter, and there is sufficient operating surplus as defined in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, undistributed earnings would be allocated to class C common shares for the purpose of calculating EPS under the two-class method. Otherwise, class C common shares would not participate in earnings. To date, class C common shares have not participated in earnings. Although the EPS for class A common shares have exceeded the first target dividend level of $0.485 per share per quarter for certain quarters there has not been adequate operating surplus for class C shares to participate in earnings.

The Company applies the if-converted method to determine the EPS impact for the convertible Series A preferred shares. The following is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the basic and diluted EPS computations.


For the three months ended June 30, 2011	Income (numerator)			Shares (denominator)		Per share amount
Net loss	$	(34,862	)

The convertible Series A preferred shares and share-based payments are not included in the computation of diluted EPS because their effects are anti-dilutive for the period.

10.

Share-based compensation:

In December 2005, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the Seaspan Corporation Stock Incentive Plan (the Plan), under which our officers, employees and directors may be granted options, restricted shares, phantom shares, and other stock-based awards as may be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors. A total of 2,000,000 shares of common stock (December 31, 2010 – 1,000,000) are reserved for issuance under the Plan, which is administered by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Plan expires ten years from the date of its adoption.

Class A common shares are issued in exchange for the cancellation of vested restricted shares and phantom share units. The restricted shares generally vest over one year and the phantom share units generally vest over three years.

Share-based compensation (continued):

A summary of the Company’s outstanding restricted shares and phantom share units as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2011 is presented below:


	Restricted shares					Phantom share units
	Number of shares			W.A. grant date FV		Number of shares		W.A. grant date FV
December 31, 2010		45,904		$	10.06		344,000	$	11.22

June 30, 2011		43,200		$	13.04		534,000	$	12.72

As vested outstanding phantom share units are only exchanged for common shares upon written notice from the holder, the phantom share units that are exchanged for common shares may include units that vested in prior periods. At June 30, 2011, 167,000 (December 31, 2010 - 49,000) of the outstanding phantom share units were vested and available for exchange by the holder.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recognized a total of $490,000 and $877,000 (June 30, 2010 - $727,000 and $1,274,000) in share-based compensation expenses. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the total fair value of shares vested was $462,000 (December 31, 2010 - $542,000). As at June 30, 2011, there was $3,886,000 (December 31, 2010 - $1,663,000) of total unrecognized compensation cost to be recognized relating to unvested share-based compensation awards, which are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 20 months.

(b)

Fair value:

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values because of their short-term to maturity. As of June 30, 2011, the fair value of the Company’s long-term debt is equal to $2,049,554,000 (December 31, 2010 - $2,043,859,000). As of June 30, 2011, the fair value of the Company’s other long-term liabilities is equal to $619,024,000. The fair value of long-term debt and other long-term liability are estimated based on expected interest and principal repayments, discounted by forward rates plus a margin appropriate to the credit risk of the Company.

The Company’s interest rate derivative financial instruments are remeasured to fair value at the end of each reporting period. The fair values of the interest rate derivative financial instruments have been calculated by discounting the future cash flow of both the fixed rate and variable rate interest rate payments. The discount rate was derived from a yield curve created by nationally recognized financial institutions adjusted for the associated credit risk. The fair values of the interest rate derivative financial instruments are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets. Therefore, the Company has categorized the fair value of these derivative financial instruments as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

(c)

Interest rate derivative financial instruments:

The Company uses derivative financial instruments, consisting of interest rate swaps and an interest rate swaption, to manage its interest rate risk associated with its variable rate debt. Prior to 2008, the Company applied hedge accounting to certain of its interest rate swaps. In 2008, the Company voluntarily de-designated all such interest rate swaps as accounting hedges such that the Company no longer applies hedge accounting. The amounts in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the interest rate swaps to which hedge accounting was previously applied will be recognized in earnings when and where the related interest is recognized in earnings.

ITEM 2 — MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

We are Seaspan Corporation, a Marshall Islands corporation that was incorporated on May 3, 2005. We are a leading independent charter owner of containerships, which we charter primarily pursuant to long-term, fixed-rate time charters. We seek additional accretive vessel acquisitions as market conditions allow. We primarily deploy our vessels on long-term, fixed-rate time charters to take advantage of the stable cash flows and high utilization rates that are typically associated with long-term time charters.

As of June 30, 2011, we owned a fleet of 62 containerships (including five leased vessels) and had entered into contracts for the purchase of an additional eight containerships and contracts to lease an additional two containerships. The average age of the 62 vessels in our fleet was approximately five years as of June 30, 2011. Our customer selection process is targeted at well-established container liner companies that charter-in vessels on a long-term basis as part of their fleet expansion strategy. Customers for our current fleet are CSCL Asia, HL USA, APM, COSCON, CSAV, MOL, K-Line, and UASC. Customers for the additional 10 newbuilding vessels will include K-Line, COSCON and Hanjin. Please read “Our Fleet” for more information. Most of our customers’ containership business revenues are derived from the shipment of goods from the Asia Pacific region, primarily China, to various overseas export markets in the United States and in Europe.

Significant Developments

Newbuilding Order and New Customer

In June 2011, we entered into contracts for the construction of three 10000 TEU newbuilding containerships with New Jiangsu and Jiangsu Xinfu pursuant to our right of first refusal agreement with Greater China Intermodal Investments LLC, or the Vehicle, an investment vehicle established by an affiliate of global alternative asset manager, The Carlyle Group, or Carlyle, in which we hold an 11% ownership interest. For more information about our arrangement with the Vehicle, please read “—Investment in Carlyle Containership-Focused Investment Vehicle.” The vessels will be constructed using our fuel efficient New Panamax SAVER design and will be chartered under ten-year, fixed-rate time charters with Hanjin. Hanjin is the largest Korean-based liner company and a new addition to our high-quality customer portfolio. After the initial ten-year charter periods, Hanjin will have options to recharter each ship for an additional two years. The three vessels acquired by us are scheduled for delivery in 2014. We have options to purchase an additional 18 similar newbuilding vessels, which also will be subject to our right of first refusal agreement with the Vehicle. The conflicts committee of our board of directors approved the allocation of the vessels between us and the Vehicle and our acquisition of the three vessels.

Our Series C Preferred Share Offerings

In January 2011, we issued 10 million shares of our 9.5% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock, or Series C Preferred Shares, at a price of $25.00 per share, for net proceeds of $241.3 million. In May 2011, we issued an additional four million Series C Preferred Shares, at a price of $27.15 per share, for net proceeds of $105.2 million, which included accrued dividends to May 25, 2011 of $0.15 per share. In the May 2011 offering, the Series C Preferred Shares were sold at a $2.00 premium per share over the stated liquidation preference of $25 per share. Dividends are payable on the Series C Preferred Shares at an initial rate of 9.5% per annum of the stated liquidation preference. We intend to use the net proceeds from these offerings for general corporate purposes, including funding the construction of our three new 10000 TEU containerships.

Delivery of Seven New Vessels

During the period we accepted delivery of seven vessels, bringing our fleet to a total of 62 vessels as at June 30, 2011. The vessel deliveries are summarized as below:


Vessel	Vessel Class (TEU)		Length of Time Charter	Charterer	Delivery Date
Brevik Bridge		4500	12 years + two 3-year options	K-Line	January 2011
Bilbao Bridge		4500	12 years + two 3-year options	K-Line	January 2011
COSCO Prince Rupert		8500	12 years + three 1-year options	COSCON	March 2011
COSCO Vietnam		8500	12 years + three 1-year options	COSCON	April 2011
Berlin Bridge		4500	12 years + two 3-year options	K-Line	May 2011
COSCO Glory		13100	12 years	COSCON	June 2011
COSCO Pride		13100	12 years	COSCON	June 2011

Extension of Time Charter

In March 2011, CSCL Asia exercised its option to extend the long-term time charter for the CSCL Chiwan, upon conclusion of its initial 10-year term. We are currently chartering the vessel to CSCL Asia at a rate of $18,300 per day and the rate for the option period increases to $19,000 per day beginning September 2011, for a term that expires in September 2013. In May 2011, APM exercised its first one-year option to extend the time charters on the Maersk Merritt and Victor upon conclusion of its initial five-year term. We are currently chartering the vessels to APM at a rate of $23,450 per day, and the rate for the first option period is $22,400 per day beginning in November 2011, for a term that expires in November 2012. In June 2011, APM did not exercise its first one-year options to extend the time charters for the York and Maersk Moncton. These vessels will be re-delivered to us between the end of September 2011 and March 2012. The Company plans to re-charter the vessels subject to market conditions.

Investment in Carlyle Containership-Focused Investment Vehicle

In March 2011, we agreed to participate in the Vehicle, which will invest up to $900 million of equity capital in containership assets, primarily newbuilding vessels strategic to the People’s Republic of China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macau. The amount of equity capital will be reduced to the extent that the Carlyle affiliate member of the Vehicle separately invests in non-containership assets. We believe that the combination of our expertise and relationships in the containership market and Carlyle’s financial resources, global business network and access to capital will enhance our ability to take advantage of growth opportunities in the containership market.

There currently exists significant excess capacity in Asian shipyards, and we believe that, as a result of this excess capacity, in the near term shipyards are willing to provide pricing and design concessions for large newbuilding construction orders. The size of these orders likely exceeds the size of orders we would be able or willing to make on our own. As a result, we view our participation in the Vehicle, and especially the right of first refusal we will have on certain containership investment opportunities available to the Vehicle, as a means of selectively and cost-effectively expanding our fleet. We believe that the combined scale of our business and the Vehicle will allow us to realize volume discounts for newbuilding orders, negotiate design improvements from shipyards and obtain more attractive vessel financing than we would otherwise be able to achieve on our own, thereby creating a competitive advantage for us.

The members of the Vehicle are (i) Seaspan Investment I Ltd., a subsidiary of us, (ii) Blue Water Commerce, LLC, an affiliate of Dennis R. Washington, (iii) Tiger Management Limited, an entity owned and controlled by our director Graham Porter, and (iv) Greater China Industrial Investments LLC (a limited liability company owned by affiliates of Carlyle and Tiger Management Limited).

For additional information about the transactions and agreements relating to our investment in the Vehicle, including our right of first refusal, please read “Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions—B. Related Party Transactions—Agreements Related to Our Investment in Carlyle Containership-Focused Investment Vehicle, —Certain Relationships and Transactions, —Omnibus Agreement, —Employment Agreement and Other Related Agreements with Gerry Wang, and —Financial Services Agreement with Tiger Ventures Limited” in our 2010 Annual Report.

New Employment Agreement and Other Related Agreements with Gerry Wang

Mr. Wang has served as our chief executive officer and the chief executive officer of our Manager pursuant to an employment agreement with our Manager. In March 2011, in connection with our investment in the Vehicle, Mr. Wang’s agreement with our Manager was amended and restated and we entered an employment agreement and a transaction services agreement with Mr. Wang. Pursuant to our employment agreement with Mr. Wang, which became effective on January 1, 2011, he will continue to serve as our chief executive officer through January 1, 2013. The transaction services agreement will become effective following termination of Mr. Wang’s employment with us. For more information, please read “Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions—B. Related Party Transactions—Employment Agreement and Other Related Agreements with Gerry Wang” in our 2010 Annual Report.

Dividend Increase and New Dividend Policy

In February 2011, our board of directors adopted a progressive dividend policy aimed at sustainably increasing our dividends in a manner that preserves our long-term financial strength and our ability to expand our fleet. We expect this policy to increase dividends paid to holders of our Class A common shares, while continuing to permit us to pursue our growth strategy. Our board expects to declare aggregate dividends of $0.75 per Class A common share for the four quarters ended December 31, 2011. For the first quarter of 2011, our board of directors declared a dividend of $0.1875 per share that was paid on May 23, 2011 to all shareholders of record as of May 14, 2011. This represents a 50.0% increase over the dividend paid for the fourth quarter of 2010 and an 87.5% increase over the dividends paid for the first quarter of 2010. Regardless of our dividend policy, declaration and payment of any dividend is subject to the discretion of our board of directors. For more information, please read “Item 8. Financial Information—A. Financial Statements and Other Financial Information—Dividend Policy” in our 2010 Annual Report.

Recent Developments

Subsequent Vessel Delivery

On August 1, 2011, we accepted delivery of the Budapest Bridge, a 4500 TEU vessel chartered by K-Line under a 12-year, fixed-rate time charter contract, with options to extend the contract terms up to an additional six years.

Dividend Payment

On August 1, 2011, we paid a quarterly dividend of $0.600347 per share on our 9.5% Series C preferred shares, representing a distribution of $8.4 million. The dividend was paid to all 9.5% Series C preferred shareholders of record as of July 29, 2011 for the period from April 30, 2011 to July 29, 2011.

Certain Potential Transactions

The discussion of the following potential transaction is prospective and is intended to benefit from the protections described in the discussion regarding forward-looking statements in this Report. The potential transaction described below may not be completed, and the terms of the transaction, if completed, may differ materially from those described below.

Potential Non-Recourse Loan Facility Transaction

We are negotiating a transaction that would involve one of our subsidiaries entering into a transaction with affiliates of a leading Chinese and a leading Japanese bank for a non-recourse loan facility in an amount up to $150 million relating to one of our 13100 TEU newbuilding vessels. The vessel is being constructed by HHI and is currently financed with up to $75 million under one of our

revolving credit facilities. Upon delivery of the vessel and through an inter-company operating charter with our subsidiary, we will still time-charter the vessel to COSCON in accordance with the terms of the original 12-year time charter. The subsidiary’s indebtedness under the loan facility would be non-recourse to Seaspan Corporation.

Potential Acquisition of Seaspan Management Services Limited and Change in Management Fees

Our Manager and certain of its subsidiaries provide us with all of our technical, administrative and strategic services, together with all of our employees, other than our chief executive officer. We have discussed with our Manager our potential acquisition of all or a portion of our Manager.

We believe any such acquisition of our Manager would increase our control over access to the services our Manager provides on a long-term basis. Additionally, based on the technical management fees and additional fees under the management agreement between our Manager and the Vehicle and disclosure by other public containership companies and third-party management companies, the owners of our Manager have proposed increases in existing technical management fees and the inclusion of additional fees under the management agreements, which they believe reflect current market practice. Under the management agreements, the fees for the technical services are scheduled for renegotiation in December 2011. The conflicts committee of our board of directors is evaluating these proposals with the assistance of financial and legal advisors.

For additional information about the agreements with our Manager that govern the services provided to us, please read “Item 7. Major Shareholders and Related Party Transactions—B. Related Party Transactions—Our Management Agreements” in our 2010 Annual Report.

New Vessel Contracts

Our primary objective is to acquire additional containerships as market conditions allow, and to enter into additional long-term, fixed-rate time charters for such vessels.

During 2008, in accordance with the terms of the management agreement, we negotiated with the Manager and agreed to fixed fees for technical services provided for our vessels ranging from $5,118 to $8,336, depending on vessel size, for the three-year period commencing January 1, 2009.

As of June 30, 2011, we had contracted to purchase eight additional containerships and to lease an additional two, all of which were then currently or will be under construction, and have scheduled delivery dates through July 2014. One of those vessels was subsequently delivered in August 2011.

As of June 30, 2011, the eight newbuilding containerships that we had contracted to purchase and the two that we had contracted to lease consisted of the following vessels:

Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 Compared with Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2010

The following is a discussion of our financial condition and results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

The following provides information about our fleet as of June 30, 2011:


Number of vessels in operation			62
Average age of fleet in years			4.6
TEU capacity			322,000
Average remaining initial term on outstanding charters			7.1

We accepted delivery of 13 vessels during the year ended December 31, 2010. We began 2011 with 55 vessels in operation and through June 30, 2011 accepted delivery of seven vessels, bringing our fleet to a total of 62 vessels in operation as at June 30, 2011. Operating days are the primary driver of revenue, while ownership days are the primary driver for ship operating costs.

Revenue

The increase in operating days and the dollar impact thereof, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was due to the following:


	Three Months Ended June 30, 2011						Six Months Ended June 30, 2011
	Operating Days impact			$ impact (in millions)			Operating Days impact			$ impact (in millions)
2011 vessel deliveries		416		$	16.3			553		$	21.2

Unscheduled off-hire		1			—			90			1.6

Total		1,016		$	36.1			2,251		$	76.8

Vessel utilization was 98.9% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to 99.0% and 98.1% for each of the comparable periods in the prior year.

The increase in vessel utilization for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily due to the 90 days of unscheduled off-hire resulting from the grounding of the CSAV Licanten (formerly the CSCL Hamburg) in the Gulf of Aqaba on December 31, 2009. During the six months ended June 30, 2010 four dry-dockings were completed, which resulted in 62 days of scheduled off-hire for the following vessels:


Vessel		Commenced
CSCL Vancouver		Q1
CSAV Licanten⁽¹⁾		Q2
CSCL Sydney		Q2
CSCL New York		Q2

⁽¹⁾	CSAV Licanten’s next dry-docking was originally scheduled for 2013, however we combined the repairs of the CSAV Licanten with an earlier dry-docking which defers the next scheduled dry-docking to 2015.

During the six months ended June 30, 2011 we completed seven dry-dockings which resulted in a total of 111 days of scheduled off-hire for the following vessels:


Vessel		Commenced
CSCL Sao Paulo⁽¹⁾		Q1
Jakarta Express		Q1
Saigon Express		Q1
Rio Grande Express		Q1
Lahore Express		Q2
Santos Express		Q2
Victor		Q2

⁽¹⁾	CSCL Sao Paulo’s next dry-docking was originally scheduled for 2013; however, we combined the scheduled dry-docking for this vessel with repairs initiated in December 2010 to achieve savings and defer the next scheduled dry-docking to 2016.

Our cumulative vessel utilization since its initial public offering in August 2005 is 99.1%.

Ship Operating Expense

The increase in ownership days, and the dollar impact thereof, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was due to the following:


	Three Months Ended June 30, 2011					Six Months Ended June 30, 2011
	Ownership Days impact		$ impact (in millions)			Ownership Days impact		$ impact (in millions)
2011 vessel deliveries		416	$	2.9			553	$	3.8
Full period contribution for 2010 vessel deliveries		615		3.7			1,657		10.2
Changes in extraordinary⁽¹⁾ costs & expenses not covered by the fixed fee		—		(0.4	)		—		0.8

Total		1,031	$	6.2			2,210	$	14.8

⁽¹⁾	Extraordinary costs and expenses are defined in our management agreements and do not relate to extraordinary items as defined by financial reporting standards.

Extraordinary costs and expenses not covered by the fixed compared to the fixed technical management fee were 3.6% and 4.6% of total expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, as compared to 6.2% and 4.4% for the comparable periods in the prior year. The decrease in the three months ended June 30, 2011 is mainly attributable to the bunkers consumed during off-hire for the CSAV Licanten in 2010.

Depreciation

The increases in depreciation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year were due to the additional ownership days from the seven vessel deliveries in 2011 and a full period of ownership for the 13 deliveries in 2010.

General and Administrative Expenses

The increases in general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to the corresponding periods of the prior year were primarily due to the new employment agreement with our chief executive officer (which has an effective date of January 1, 2011), additional fees paid to our board of directors for an increased number of meetings and increased legal costs to support growth transactions.

Interest Expense

Interest expense is comprised of interest at the variable rate plus the applicable margin incurred on debt for operating vessels and a reclassification of amounts from accumulated other comprehensive income related to previously designated hedging relationships. The increases in interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to the comparable periods of the prior year were primarily due to higher average operating debt balances compared to the corresponding period of the prior year. The average LIBOR for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was 0.4%, compared to 0.3% for both of the comparable periods of the prior year. Although we have entered into fixed interest rate swaps, the difference between the variable interest rate and the swapped fixed rate on operating debt is recorded in our change in fair value of financial instruments caption as required by financial reporting standards. The interest incurred on long-term debt for our vessels under construction is capitalized to the respective vessels under construction.

Change in Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The change in fair value of financial instruments resulted in a loss of $84.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, compared to a loss of $157.7 million for the comparable quarter last year. The change in fair value of financial instruments resulted in a loss of $78.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to a loss of $223.2 million for the comparable period last year. The decreases in change in fair value for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 were primarily due to decreases in the forward LIBOR curve. The fair value of interest rate swap and swaption agreements is subject to change based on our company-specific credit risk included in the discount factor and the interest rate implied by the current swap curve, including its relative steepness. In determining the fair value, these factors are based on the current information available to us. These factors are expected to change through the life of the instruments, causing the fair value to fluctuate significantly due to the large notional amounts and long-term nature of our derivative instruments. As these factors may change, the fair value of the instruments is an estimate and may deviate significantly from the actual cash settlements realized over the term of the instruments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

As of June 30, 2011, our cash and cash equivalents totaled $152.8 million, and we had approximately $0.9 billion available under our credit and lease facilities. Our primary operating liquidity needs include payments under our management agreement and payment of our quarterly dividends. Our other liquidity needs primarily relate to the purchase of the containerships we have contracted to purchase, debt repayment, any new or future vessel

acquisitions and the future potential redemption of our Series C Preferred Shares. The Series C Preferred Shares carry an annual dividend rate of 9.5% per $25 of liquidation preference per share, which is subject to increase if, among other things, we do not redeem the shares in whole by January 30, 2017. The Series C Preferred Shares are redeemable by us at any time on or after January 30, 2016.

We anticipate that our primary sources of funds for our short and medium-term liquidity needs will be our committed credit facilities, new credit facilities, new leases, additional equity offerings as well as our cash from operations, while our long-term sources of funds will be from cash from operations and/or debt and equity financings.

A summary of our credit and lease facilities as of June 30, 2011 is as follows:


Name	Amount Outstanding			Amount Committed		Amount Available

(1)

We are able to draw additional funds under this facility so long as the loan to market value ratio–being the ratio of the outstanding principal amount of the loan immediately after a drawing to the market value of the vessels that are provided as collateral under that facility–does not exceed 70%. Based on a valuation of the vessels financed under the $1.3 billion credit facility that was obtained in June 2011 (which was on a without-charter basis as required by our credit facility), we are currently unable to borrow the remaining $267 million available under this facility. This restriction does not impact the repayment of amounts already borrowed. For more information, please read “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects – C. Liquidity and Capital Resources – Financing Facilities – Our Credit Facilities” in our 2010 Annual Report.

(2)	Long-term debt related to operating vessels was $2.0 billion as at June 30, 2011 and $1.8 billion as at December 31, 2010.

(3)

The lessor has funded the $400.0 million committed amount. The difference between the carrying value of this facility and the amount outstanding is due to implicit interest accrued for financial reporting purposes. On October 21, 2010, the amount of the lease guaranteed by Seaspan Corporation was significantly reduced.

(4)	Amounts outstanding are owed by a wholly owned subsidiary of Seaspan Corporation and are non-recourse to Seaspan Corporation.

Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2011, the estimated remaining installments on the 10 vessels we had contracted to purchase or lease, as the case may be, totaled approximately $897.4 million. We believe that the proceeds from our recent Series C issuances, together with the availability under our credit and lease facilities and our anticipated operating cash flows less dividends, will be sufficient to fund the remaining payments for our currently contracted $0.9 billion newbuilding program. We believe that we have sufficient liquidity to fund the commitment for our newbuilding program. Future debt and or equity issuances may be considered for growth.

Operating Cash Flows

Our cash flow from operating activities was $96.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $57.7 million for the comparable period of the prior year, and is expected to increase as we take delivery of the 10 vessels that, as of June 30, 2011, were yet to be delivered.

All of the vessels that we own and are currently committed to acquire are chartered under primarily long-term time charters. The charterers’ payments to us are our sole source of operating cash flow. We believe we have

good commercial relations with each of our customers and, to date, they have all met their commitments under their charter agreements with us. However, we cannot assure you that the charterers will be able to continue to make charter payments to us for the remaining terms of the charter agreements. If the charterers are unable to make charter payments to us, our results of operations and financial condition would be harmed.

Factors such as off-hire and increases in operating costs could reduce our operating cash flows available to fund our liquidity needs. Our operating costs include the technical services fee we pay to our Manager pursuant to the management agreements. The technical services fee does not cover extraordinary costs or expenses, as defined in the management agreements, bunkers consumed during off-hire, repair costs or insurance deductibles. Any increase in such costs, which are not covered by the technical services fee, would reduce our future operating cash flows.

Credit and Lease Facilities

Our Credit Facilities

We primarily use our credit facilities to finance the construction and acquisition of vessels. Our credit facilities are, or will be upon vessel delivery, secured by first-priority mortgages granted on 61 of our vessels, together with other related security, such as assignments of shipbuilding contracts and refund guarantees for the vessels, assignments of time charters and earnings for the vessels, assignments of insurances for the vessels and assignment of management agreements for the vessels.

As of June 30, 2011, our revolving credit facilities and term loans provided for borrowings of up to $3.4 billion, of which $2.4 billion was outstanding. Approximately $267 million of such $3.4 billion was not available to us as of that date. Interest payments on the revolving credit facilities are based on LIBOR plus margins, which ranged between 0.5% and 0.85% as of June 30, 2011.

Interest payments on our term loans are based on either LIBOR plus margins, which ranged between 0.35% and 1.0% as of June 30, 2011 or, for a portion of one of our term loans, KEXIM plus margins, which was 0.65% as of June 30, 2011.

Our Lease Facilities

As at June 30, 2011, we had lease obligations of approximately $634.1 million.

Our wholly owned subsidiary Seaspan Finance I Co. Ltd. was a party, as lessee, to lease agreements with Peony Western Leasing Limited, as lessor, for a lease facility used to finance the acquisition of five 4500 TEU vessels. Four of these vessels have been delivered as of June 30, 2011. These vessels have commenced, and the remaining vessel will commence, operations under 12-year fixed-rate time charters with K-Line upon delivery. The lessee is and will be a party to each of the time charters with K-Line, and we have guaranteed the performance of the lessee’s obligations to K-Line. The lessee’s obligations under this facility are secured by a general assignment of earnings (other than those related to the time charters for the vessels), insurances and requisition hire for each vessel and a corporate guarantee issued by us in respect of the obligations of the lessee and our Manager. As part of this reduction, the Company has placed $60.0 million in a deposit account over which the Lessor has a first priority interest.

In February 2010, we entered into a sale-leaseback transaction with an affiliate of a leading Chinese bank for a 12-year sale-leaseback of one of our 13100 TEU newbuilding vessels in an amount up to $150.0 million. This transaction involves a vessel that we had previously contracted to purchase from HHI and will be under a time charter with COSCON. Following the sale, the purchaser chartered the vessel to one of our subsidiaries and our subsidiary sub-chartered to us through an inter-company operating charter. We will still charter the vessel to COSCON in accordance with the terms of our original time charter. This vessel has been delivered as of June 29, 2011. Our subsidiary’s financial indebtedness under the charter is non-recourse to us.

In October 2010, one of our subsidiaries entered into a sale-leaseback transaction for one of our 13100 TEU newbuilding vessels with an affiliate of Crédit Agricole CIB. This vessel is being constructed by HHI and will be under a time charter with COSCON. Upon delivery from HHI, the vessel will be purchased by the affiliate of Crédit Agricole CIB, and through an inter-

company operating charter with our subsidiary, we will still time-charter the vessel to COSCON in accordance with the terms of our original time charter. Our subsidiary’s financial indebtedness under the charter is non-recourse to us.

For additional information about our credit and lease facilities, please read “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—C. Liquidity and Capital Resources” in our 2010 Annual Report.

Statement of Cash Flows

Operating Cash Flows

Net cash from operating activities was $60.2 million and $96.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, which represent increases of $20.1 million and $38.9 million over the comparable periods in the previous year. The increases were primarily due to the following:


	Three months ended June 30, 2011			Six months ended June 30, 2011
	(in millions)			(in millions)
Higher operating earnings before depreciation	$	27.3		$	58.5
Higher swap settlements		(2.4	)		(5.1	)
Higher cash interest expense, net of amounts capitalized		(4.1	)		(8.6	)
Working capital changes		(0.7	)		(5.7	)
Other		—			(0.2	)

Increase in net cash from operating activities over the comparable periods in the prior year	$	20.1		$	38.9

The higher operating earnings before depreciation reflected results from the increase in the number of larger vessels in our fleet over the past year. The increase in swap settlements is primarily due to lower LIBOR and higher notional amounts on our swaps. The increase in interest expense, net of amounts capitalized, is primarily due to the increase in our debt balances from our increased number of operating vessels.

Cash used in investing activities was $204.7 million and $295.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, which represent decreases of $112.4 million and $285.0 million over the comparable periods in the previous year. In the three months ended June 30, 2011, the amount was comprised primarily of final installments paid to the shipyards for delivered vessels and installments for vessels under construction. In the six months ended June 30, 2011, the amount comprised primarily of final installments paid to the shipyards for seven vessels and five installments for vessels under construction.

Financing Cash Flows

Net cash from financing activities was $85.0 million and $317.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, which represent decreases of $118.5 million and $78.3 million over the comparable periods in the previous year. Although we have received $240.3 million and $104.4 of net proceeds received from the first and second issuances of our Series C preferred shares during the six months ended June 30, 2011, there were draws on our credit facilities in the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.

Ongoing Capital Expenditures and Dividends

We must make substantial capital expenditures over the long-term to (a) preserve our capital base, which is comprised of our net assets, (b) continue to refinance our indebtedness and (c) fund our dividends. We will likely need at some time in the future

to retain additional funds to provide reasonable assurance of maintaining our capital base over the long-term. We believe it is not possible to determine now, with any reasonable degree of certainty, when and how much of our operating cash flow we should retain in our business to preserve our capital base. Factors that will impact our decisions regarding the amount of funds to be retained in our business to preserve our capital base, including the following:

•

the remaining lives of our vessels;

•

the returns that we generate on our retained cash flow, which will depend on the economic terms of any future acquisitions and charters, which are currently unknown;

•

future market charter rates for our vessels, particularly when they come off charter, which are currently unknown;

•

our future operating and interest costs, particularly after the expiration of the technical services fees and financing arrangements described in this Report (our technical services fees are fixed until December 31, 2011 and will be subject to renegotiation thereafter; the majority of our financings carry fixed interest rate swaps with maturities between 2012 through to 2025; however, future operating and financing costs are currently unknown);

•

our future refinancing requirements and alternatives and conditions in the relevant financing and capital markets at that time;

•

The value of our vessel assets at the time of our future financing requirements; and

•

unanticipated future events and other contingencies.

Please read “Risk Factors” in our 2010 Annual Report for factors that may affect our future capital expenditures and results.

Critical Accounting Estimates

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with US GAAP, and we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and the related disclosures of contingent obligations. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments. We base our estimates on historical experience and anticipated results and trends and on various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. By their nature, estimates are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty. Actual results may differ from our estimates.

Recent Accounting Developments

None.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

At June 30, 2011, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Report on Form 6-K for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 contains certain forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) concerning our operations, cash flows, and financial position, including, in particular, the likelihood of our success in developing and expanding our business.

These forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only at the date of this Report and are not intended to give any assurance as to future results. As a result, you are cautioned not to rely on any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements appear in a number of places in this Report. Although these statements are based upon assumptions we believe to be reasonable based upon available information, including operating margins, earnings, cash flow, working capital and capital expenditures, they are subject to risks and uncertainties.

Forward-looking statements in this Report are estimates reflecting the judgment of senior management and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements are based upon a number of assumptions and estimates that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Accordingly, these forward-looking statements should be considered in light of various important factors, including those set forth in our 2010 Annual Report under the heading “Risk Factors.” Our 2010 Annual Report was filed with the Commission on March 30, 2011.

We do not intend to revise any forward-looking statements in order to reflect any change in our expectations or events or circumstances that may subsequently arise. We make no prediction or statement about the performance of our common shares. You should carefully review and consider the various disclosures included in this Report and in our other filings made with the Commission that attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, prospects and results of operations.

ITEM 3 — QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates. We use interest rate swaps to manage interest rate price risks, but do not use these financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

As of June 30, 2011, our floating-rate borrowings totaled $2.6 billion and we had entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix the rates on a notional principal of $2.5 billion. These interest rate swaps had a fair value of $426.1 million in the counterparties’ favor as of June 30, 2011.

The tables below provide information about our financial instruments at June 30, 2011 that are sensitive to changes in interest rates. See note 7 to our consolidated financial statements included in our 2010 Annual Report, which provides additional information with respect to our debt agreements. The information in this table is based upon our credit facilities.


	Principal Payment Dates
	2011		2012		2013		2014		2015		Thereafter
	(dollars in thousands)
Credit Facilities:
Bearing interest at variable interest rates⁽¹⁾		8,333		71,579		138,547		252,093		771,545		1,156,971

Lease Facilities:
Bearing interest at variable interest rates⁽²⁾		2,336		22,830		26,849		27,109		27,388		276,872

(1)

Represents principal payments on our credit facilities that bear interest at variable rates for which we have entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix the LIBOR. For the purpose of this table, principal repayments are determined based on amounts outstanding at period end, pro-rated to reflect commitment reduction schedules for each related facility as if they were fully drawn. Actual repayments may differ from the amounts presented as repayment timing is impacted by the balance outstanding at each commitment reduction date.

(2)	Includes repayments for amounts yet to be funded of $108.9 million.

As of June 30, 2011, we have the following interest rate swaps outstanding:


Fixed per annum rate swapped for LIBOR	Notional Amount as of June 30, 2011		Maximum Notional Amount⁽¹⁾		Effective Date	Ending Date
5.6400%	$	714,500	$	714,500	August 31, 2007	August 31, 2017
4.6325%		663,399		663,399	September 15, 2005	July 16, 2012
5.4200%		438,462		438,462	September 6, 2007	May 31, 2024

5.5150%		59,700		59,700	February 28, 2007	July 31, 2012
5.1700%		24,000		55,500	April 30, 2007	May 29, 2020
5.1750%		—		663,399	July 16, 2012	July 15, 2016
5.8700%		—		620,390	August 31, 2017	November 28, 2025
5.4975%		—		59,700	July 31, 2012	July 31, 2019

(1)	Over the term of the interest rate swaps, the notional amounts increase and decrease. These amounts represent the peak notional amount during the term of the swap.

(2)

We have entered into a swaption agreement with a bank (Swaption Counterparty) whereby the Swaption Counterparty has the option to require us to enter into an interest rate swap to pay LIBOR and receive a fixed rate of 5.26%. This is a European option and is open for a two-hour period on February 26, 2014 after which it expires. The notional amount of the underlying swap is $106.8 million with an effective date of February 28, 2014 and an expiration of February 26, 2021. If the Swaption Counterparty exercises the swaption, the underlying swap effectively offsets our 5.26% pay fixed LIBOR swap from February 28, 2014 to February 26, 2021.

Counterparties to these financial instruments may expose us to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance. As at June 30, 2011, these financial instruments were in the counterparties’ favor. We have considered and reflected the risk of non-performance by us and our counterparties in the fair value of our financial instruments as of June 30, 2011. As part of our consideration of non-performance risk, we perform evaluations of our counterparties for credit risk through monitoring of their financial health and risk profiles to identify funding risk or changes in their credit ratings.

Counterparties to these agreements are major financial institutions, and we consider the risk of loss due to non-performance to be minimal. We do not require collateral from these institutions. We do not hold and do not expect to not issue interest rate swaps for trading purposes.
