    MONACO, May 14, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Navios Maritime Partners L.P. (“Navios Partners”) (NYSE: NMM), an international owner and operator of dry cargo and tanker vessels, today reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

    Angeliki Frangou, Chairwoman and Chief Executive Officer of Navios Partners stated, “I am pleased with the results for the first quarter of 2024. We reported revenue of $318.6 million and net income of $73.4 million. Earnings per common unit were $2.38.”

    Angeliki Frangou continued, “In the first quarter of 2024, regional conflict, particularly in the Middle East, continued to drive transportation. The US and European economies were generally healthy. As a result, this was Navios Partners’ strongest first quarter financial performance ever.  

    We remain cautious as this robust maritime environment can change quickly.  As usual, we focus on things that we can control, such as reducing leverage and modernizing our energy efficient fleet. We are taking long-term cover where available, as rates are around or exceeding long-term averages. For example, we recently chartered-out a capesize vessel for 2.9 years at a net daily rate of $28,500.”

    Three month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023

    Time charter and voyage revenues for the three month period ended March 31, 2024 increased by $9.1 million, or 2.9%, to $318.6 million, as compared to $309.5 million for the same period in 2023. The increase in revenue was mainly attributable to the increase in revenue from freight voyages. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, time charter and voyage revenues were positively affected by $0.1 million and negatively affected by $13.0 million, respectively, relating to the straight line effect of the containership and tanker charters with de-escalating rates. The Time Charter Equivalent (“TCE”) rate increased by 3.4% to $21,514 per day, as compared to $20,811 per day for the same period in 2023. The available days of the fleet decreased by 2.6% to 13,540 days for the three month period ended March 31, 2024, as compared to 13,908 days for the same period in 2023 mainly due to the sale of vessels, partially mitigated by the deliveries of newbuilding and secondhand vessels.

    EBITDA of Navios Partners for the three month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was affected by the items described in the table above. Excluding these items, Adjusted EBITDA increased by $8.9 million to $164.3 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2024, as compared to $155.4 million for the same period in 2023. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to a: (i) $9.1 million increase in time charter and voyage revenues; (ii) $2.9 million decrease in other expense, net; and (iii) $1.9 million decrease in direct vessel expenses (excluding the amortization of deferred drydock, special survey costs and other capitalized items). The above increase was partially mitigated by a: (i) $2.1 million increase in time charter and voyage expenses mainly due to the increase in bunker expenses arising from the increased days of freight voyages in the first quarter of 2024; (ii) $1.7 million increase in vessel operating expenses mainly due to the adjustment of the fixed daily fee in accordance with our management agreements, partially mitigated by the sale of vessels; and (iii) $1.2 million increase in general and administrative expenses in accordance with our administrative services agreement.

    Net Income for the three month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was affected by the items described in the table above. Excluding these items, Adjusted Net Income increased by $5.8 million to $71.5 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2024, as compared to $65.7 million for the same period in 2023. The increase in Adjusted Net Income was primarily due to: (i) an $8.9 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA; (ii) a $6.1 million decrease in interest expense and finance cost, net; and (iii) a $1.8 million increase in interest income. The above increase was partially mitigated by an $11.0 million negative impact from the depreciation and amortization, mainly due to a $5.1 million increase in the amortization of deferred drydock, special survey costs and other capitalized items, a $4.5 million decrease in the amortization of the unfavorable lease terms and a $1.4 million increase in the depreciation and amortization expense.

    Fleet Employment Profile

    The following table reflects certain key indicators of Navios Partners’ core fleet performance for the three month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

    (1)   Available days for the fleet represent total calendar days the vessels were in Navios Partners’ possession for the relevant period after subtracting off-hire days associated with scheduled repairs, drydockings or special surveys and ballast days relating to voyages. The shipping industry uses available days to measure the number of days in a relevant period during which a vessel is capable of generating revenues.
    (2)   Operating days are the number of available days in the relevant period less the aggregate number of days that the vessels are off-hire due to any reason, including unforeseen circumstances. The shipping industry uses operating days to measure the aggregate number of days in a relevant period during which vessels actually generate revenues.
    (3)   Fleet utilization is the percentage of time that Navios Partners’ vessels were available for generating revenue, and is determined by dividing the number of operating days during a relevant period by the number of available days during that period. The shipping industry uses fleet utilization to measure efficiency in finding employment for vessels and minimizing the amount of days that its vessels are off-hire for reasons other than scheduled repairs, drydockings or special surveys.
    (4)   TCE rate: TCE rate per day is defined as voyage, time charter revenues and charter-out revenues under bareboat contract (grossed up by the applicable fixed vessel operating expenses for the respective periods) less voyage expenses during a period divided by the number of available days during the period. The TCE rate per day is a customary shipping industry performance measure used primarily to present the actual daily earnings generated by vessels on various types of charter contracts for the number of available days of the fleet.

    Disclosure of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Common Unit, basic and diluted are “non-U.S. GAAP financial measures” and should not be used in isolation or considered substitutes for net income/ (loss), cash flow from operating activities and other operations or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

    EBITDA represents net income before interest and finance costs, depreciation and amortization (including intangible accelerated amortization) and income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA excluding certain items, as described under “Earnings Highlights”. Navios Partners uses Adjusted EBITDA as a liquidity measure and reconciles EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net cash provided by operating activities, the most comparable U.S. GAAP liquidity measure. EBITDA in this document is calculated as follows: net cash provided by operating activities adding back, when applicable and as the case may be, the effect of: (i) net increase/(decrease) in operating assets; (ii) net decrease in operating liabilities; (iii) net interest cost; (iv) amortization and write-off of deferred finance costs and discount; (v) gain on sale of assets, net; (vi) non-cash amortization of deferred revenue and straight line effect of the containership and tanker charters with de-escalating rates; (vii) stock-based compensation expense; and (viii) amortization of operating lease assets/ liabilities. Navios Partners believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are each the basis upon which liquidity can be assessed and presents useful information to investors regarding Navios Partners’ ability to service and/or incur indebtedness, pay capital expenditures, meet working capital requirements and make cash distributions. Navios Partners also believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used: (i) by potential lenders to evaluate potential transactions; (ii) to evaluate and price potential acquisition candidates; and (iii) by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.

    Each of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the analysis of Navios Partners’ results as reported under U.S. GAAP. Some of these limitations are: (i) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, working capital needs; and (ii) although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized may have to be replaced in the future. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such capital expenditures. Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a principal indicator of Navios Partners’ performance. Furthermore, our calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to that reported by other companies due to differences in methods of calculation.

    We present Adjusted Net Income by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Our presentation of Adjusted Net Income adjusts net income for the items described above under “Earnings Highlights”. The definition of Adjusted Net Income used here may not be comparable to that used by other companies due to differences in methods of calculation. Adjusted Basic Earnings per Common Unit is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted average number of common units outstanding for each of the periods presented, basic and diluted.
