Monaco, January 29, 2014 Navios Maritime Partners L.P. (Navios Partners) (NYSE: NMM), an owner and operator of dry cargo vessels, today reported its financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2013.
Angeliki Frangou, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Navios Partners, stated: Navios Partners previously announced that it was committed to a minimum distribution of $1.77 through 2014 and today extends this through the year 2015. Moreover, as drybulk shipping recovers and the charter rates improve, we will be positioned to increase distributions in the medium term.
Angeliki Frangou continued, 2013 was a transformational year. During the year, we engaged in a novel financing through the Term Loan B, broadening our access to debt capital, and entered a new businesses line, the container segment, by mitigating market risk through using long-term charters. We also renewed our fleet by opportunistically purchasing four Japanese-built drybulk vessels. As the cycle is turning, our hard work of the past year is evident and we are positioned to reap the benefits.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
Cash Distribution
The Board of Directors of Navios Partners declared a cash distribution for the fourth quarter of 2013 of $0.4425 per unit. The cash distribution is payable on February 14, 2014 to unitholders of record on February 10, 2014.
Add-on to the Term Loan B
On November 1, 2013, Navios Partners completed the issuance of $189.5 million add-on to its existing Term Loan B facility. The add-on to the Term Loan B bears an interest rate of LIBOR +425 basis points and has a five year term maturing in June 2018, with a 1.0% amortization profile. Navios Partners used the net proceeds to partially finance the acquisition of five container vessels.
Vessel deliveries
In January 2014, Navios Partners took delivery of the Navios Sun, a 2005-built Panamax vessel of 76,619 dwt. The
1
Navios Sun has been chartered out to a high quality counterparty for 12 to 14 months at a rate of $13,063 net per day.
In January 2014, Navios Partners took delivery of the Navios La Paix, a newbuilding ultra-Handymax vessel of 61,485 dwt. The Navios La Paix has been chartered out to a high quality counterparty for about two years based on the Supramax time charter Index plus 10%, with a minimum rate of $9,500, net per day.
In December 2013, Navios Partners took delivery of the Hyundai Hongkong, the Hyundai Singapore, the Hyundai Tokyo, the Hyundai Shanghai and the Hyundai Busan, all 2006-built container vessels of 6,800 TEU each. All five vessels have been chartered out to an investment grade counterparty for ten years (with Navios Partners option to terminate after year seven), at a rate of $30,119 net per day per vessel
In October 2013, Navios Partners took delivery of the Navios Harmony, 2006-built Panamax vessel of 82,790 dwt. The Navios Harmony has been chartered out to a high quality counterparty for four to six months at a rate of $14,725 net per day.
Long-Term and Insured Cash Flow
Navios Partners has entered into medium to long-term time charter-out agreements for its vessels with a remaining average term of 3.4 years, providing a stable base of revenue and distributable cash flow. Navios Partners has currently contracted out 74.7% of its available days for 2014, 52.6% for 2015 and 41.5% for 2016, expecting to generate revenues of approximately $197.8 million, $163.5 million and $138.1 million, respectively. The average expected daily charter-out rate for the fleet is $24,233 for 2014, $28,384 for 2015 and $30,324 for 2016. The average daily charter-in rate for the charter-in vessels is $13,513 for 2014.
Navios Partners has insured certain long-term charter-out contracts of drybulk vessels for credit default occurring until the end of 2016, either through a AA rated European Union insurance provider up to a maximum cash payment of $120.0 million initially or through a separate agreement with Navios Maritime Holdings Inc. up to a maximum cash payment of $20.0 million.

Three month periods ended December 31, 2013 and 2012
Time charter and voyage revenues for the three month period ended December 31, 2013 decreased by $0.6 million
2
or 1.2% to $52.1 million, as compared to $52.8 million for the same period in 2012. The decrease in time charter and voyage revenues was due to the decrease in time charter equivalent (TCE) to $22,682 for the three month period ended December 31, 2013, from $27,297 for the three month period ended December 31, 2012. The above decrease was partially mitigated by the increase in time charter and voyage revenues due to the acquisitions of the Navios Joy on September 11, 2013, the Navios Harmony on October 11, 2013 and the acquisition of five container vessels in December 2013. As a result of the vessel acquisitions, available days of the fleet increased to 2,216 days for the three month period ended December 31, 2013, as compared to 1,914 days for the three month period ended December 31, 2012.
EBITDA decreased by $25.6 million to $35.6 million for the three month period ended December 31, 2013, as compared to $61.3 million for the same period in 2012. The decrease in EBITDA was mainly due to a $21.9 million decrease in other income due to a $22.5 million accounting effect from the restructuring of credit default insurance in November 2012, a $0.6 million decrease in revenue, a $1.4 million increase in time charter and voyage expenses due to an increase in voyage expenses incurred, a $1.6 million increase in management fees due to the increased number of vessels, and a $0.2 million increase in general and administrative expenses. The above decrease was partially mitigated by a $0.1 million decrease in other expenses.
The reserve for estimated maintenance and replacement capital expenditures for the three month periods ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $4.1 million and $4.9 million, respectively (please see Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures in Exhibit 3).
Navios Partners generated an Operating Surplus for the three month period ended December 31, 2013 of $26.1 million, as compared to $54.2 million for the three month period ended December 31, 2012. Operating Surplus is a non-GAAP financial measure used by certain investors to assist in evaluating a partnerships ability to make quarterly cash distributions (please see Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures in Exhibit 3).
Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2013 amounted to $10.1 million compared to $40.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012. The decrease in net income by $30.0 million was due to a $25.6 million decrease in EBITDA, a $3.7 million increase in interest expense and finance cost, net and a $0.6 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense due to the increased fleet size.
Years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012
Time charter and voyage revenues for the year ended December 31, 2013 decreased by $7.3 million or 3.5% to $198.2 million, as compared to $205.4 million for the same period in 2012. The decrease in time charter and voyage revenues was due to the decrease in time charter equivalent to $24,284 for the year ended December 31, 2013, from $28,907 for the year ended December 31, 2012. The above decrease was partially mitigated by the increase in time charter and voyage revenues due to the acquisitions of the Navios Buena Ventura on June 15, 2012, the Navios Soleil on July 24, 2012, the Navios Helios on July 27, 2012, the Navios Joy on September 11, 2013, the Navios Harmony on October 11, 2013 and the acquisition of five container vessels in December 2013. As a result of the vessel acquisitions, available days of the fleet increased to 7,952 days for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to 7,002 days for the year ended December 31, 2012.
EBITDA decreased by approximately $24.1 million to $153.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, as compared to $177.4 million for the same period in 2012. The decrease in EBITDA was due to a $7.3 million decrease in revenue, a $2.0 million increase in time charter and voyage expenses due to an increase in voyage expenses incurred, a $4.5 million increase in management fees due to the increased number of vessels, a $0.7 million increase in general and administrative expenses, a $8.9 million decrease in other income and a $0.7 million increase in other expenses.
The reserve for estimated maintenance and replacement capital expenditures for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $14.6 million and $18.9 million, respectively (please see Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures in Exhibit 3).

Navios Partners generated an Operating Surplus for the year ended December 31, 2013 of $125.5 million, as compared to $148.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. Operating Surplus is a non-GAAP financial measure used by certain investors to assist in evaluating a partnerships ability to make quarterly cash distributions (please see Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures in Exhibit 3).
Net income for the year ended December 31, 2013 amounted to $59.0 million compared to $95.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. The decrease in net income by $36.9 million was due to a $24.1 million decrease in EBITDA, a $6.9 million increase in interest expense and finance cost, net and a $5.9 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense due to the increased fleet size.

(1) | Available days for the fleet represent total calendar days the vessels were in our possession for the relevant period after subtracting off-hire days associated with scheduled repairs, drydockings or special surveys. 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 is 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 our vessels were available for revenue generating available days, 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) | Time Charters Equivalents (TCE) rates are defined as voyage and time charter revenues less voyage expenses during a period divided by the number of available days during the period. The TCE rate is a standard 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
1. EBITDA
EBITDA represents net income plus interest and finance costs plus depreciation and amortization and income taxes.
EBITDA is presented because Navios Partners believes that EBITDA is a basis upon which liquidity can be assessed and present useful information to investors regarding Navios Partners ability to service and/or incur indebtedness, pay capital expenditures, meet working capital requirements and pay dividends. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered a substitute for net income, cash flow from operating activities and other operations or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States or as a measure of profitability or liquidity.
While EBITDA is frequently used as a measure of operating results and the ability to meet debt service requirements, the definition of EBITDA used here may not be comparable to that used by other companies due to differences in methods of calculation.
2. Operating Surplus
Operating Surplus represents net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization expense, non-cash interest expense and estimated maintenance and replacement capital expenditures. Maintenance and replacement capital expenditures are those capital expenditures required to maintain over the long term the operating capacity of, or the revenue generated by, Navios Partners capital assets.
Operating Surplus is a quantitative measure used in the publicly-traded partnership investment community to assist in evaluating a partnerships ability to make quarterly cash distributions. Operating Surplus is not required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should not be considered a substitute for net income, cash flow from operating activities and other operations or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States or as a measure of profitability or liquidity.
3. Available Cash
Available Cash generally means for each fiscal quarter, all cash on hand at the end of the quarter:
| less the amount of cash reserves established by the Board of Directors to: |
| provide for the proper conduct of Navios Partners business (including reserve for maintenance and replacement capital expenditures); |
| comply with applicable law, any of Navios Partners debt instruments, or other agreements; or |
| provide funds for distributions to the unitholders and to the general partner for any one or more of the next four quarters; |
| plus all cash on hand on the date of determination of available cash for the quarter resulting from working capital borrowings made after the end of the quarter. Working capital borrowings are generally borrowings that are made under any revolving credit or similar agreement used solely for working capital purposes or to pay distributions to partners. |
Available Cash is a quantitative measure used in the publicly-traded partnership investment community to assist in evaluating a partnerships ability to make quarterly cash distributions. Available cash is not required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should not be considered a substitute for net income, cash flow from operating activities and other operations or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States or as a measure of profitability or liquidity.
