Recent Developments

In May 2018, Navios Holdings agreed to sell to an unrelated third party the Navios Achilles, a 2001 built, 52,063 dwt vessel, for a total net price of $8.1 million to be paid in cash, with delivery expected in June 2018. The impairment loss due to the sale is expected to be approximately $6.7 million.

On May 14, 2018, the Company received from Navios Partners a dividend of $0.7 million for the first quarter of 2018.

In April 2018, Navios Holdings agreed to charter-in, under one ten-year bareboat contract, from an unrelated third party one newbuilding bulk carrier of about 81,000 dwt, expected to be delivered in the fourth quarter of 2019. Navios Holdings has agreed to pay in total $5.6 million, representing a deposit for the option to acquire this vessel, of which $2.8 million was paid upon signing of the contract.

Listing Developments

On April 18, 2018, Navios Holdings received notice from the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (the “NYSE”) that it was not in compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing standards because the average closing price of its common stock was less than $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. Pursuant to the NYSE’s rules, Navios Holdings had a six-month cure period following receipt of the notice to bring its stock price per share and average share price above $1.00. Navios Holdings currently intends to cure this deficiency within the prescribed timeframe set out in the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual. During this time, the Company’s common stock will continue to be listed and trade on the NYSE. The NYSE’s notification does not affect the Company’s SEC reporting requirements.

Many of Navios Holdings’ current long-term chartered-in vessels are chartered from ship owners with whom Navios Holdings has long-standing relationships. Navios Holdings pays these ship owners daily rates of hire for such vessels, and then charters out these vessels to other parties, who pay Navios Holdings a daily rate of hire. Navios Holdings also enters into COAs pursuant to which Navios Holdings has agreed to carry cargoes, typically for industrial customers, who export or import dry bulk cargoes. Further, Navios Holdings enters into spot market voyage contracts, where Navios Holdings is paid a rate per ton to carry a specified cargo from point A to point B.

Short-Term Fleet. Navios Holdings’ short-term fleet is comprised of Capesize, Panamax and Ultra Handymax vessels chartered-in for durations of less than 12 months. The number of short-term vessels varies from time to time. These vessels are not included in the “core fleet” of the Company.

Charter Policy and Industry Outlook

Navios Holdings’ policy has been to take a portfolio approach to managing operating risks. This policy may lead Navios Holdings to time charter-out many of the vessels that it is operating (i.e., vessels owned by Navios Holdings or which Navios Holdings has taken into its fleet under charters having a duration of more than 12 months) for long-term periods to various shipping industry counterparties considered by Navios Holdings to have appropriate credit profiles. By doing this, Navios Holdings aims to lock in, subject to credit and operating risks, favorable forward revenue and cash flows, which it believes will cushion it against unfavorable market conditions, when the Company deems necessary. In addition, Navios Holdings trades additional vessels taken in on shorter term charters of less than 12 months duration as well as voyage charters or COAs.

Generally, this chartering policy may have the effect of generating Time Charter Equivalents (“TCE”) that are higher than spot employment. The average daily charter-in vessel cost for the Navios Holdings long-term charter-in fleet (excluding vessels, which are utilized to serve voyage charters or COAs) was $13,013 per day for the three month period ended March 31, 2018. The average long-term charter-in hire rate per vessel was computed by (a) multiplying (i) the daily charter-in rate for each vessel by (ii) the number of days each vessel is in operation for the year; (b) summing those individual multiplications; and (c) dividing such total by the total number of charter-in vessel days for the year. Furthermore, Navios Holdings has the ability to increase its owned fleet through purchase options exercisable in the future if the price is favorable relative to the then-current market. Navios Holdings holds 20 purchase options.

Navios Holdings believes that a decrease in global commodity demand from its current level, and the delivery of dry bulk carrier new buildings into the world fleet, could have an adverse impact on future revenue and profitability. However, Navios Holdings believes that the operating cost advantage of its owned vessels and long-term chartered-in fleet will continue to help mitigate the impact of any declines in freight rates. A reduced freight rate environment also has an adverse impact on the value of Navios Holdings’ owned fleet. In reaction to a decline in freight rates, available ship financing can also be negatively impacted.

Navios Logistics owns and operates vessels, barges and pushboats located mainly in Argentina, the largest independent bulk transfer and storage port facility in Uruguay, and an upriver liquid port facility located in Paraguay. Operating results for Navios Logistics are highly correlated to: (i) South American grain production and export, in particular Argentinean, Brazilian, Paraguayan, Uruguayan and Bolivian production and export; (ii) South American iron ore production and export, mainly from Brazil; and (iii) sales (and logistic services) of petroleum products in the Argentine and Paraguayan markets. Navios Holdings believes that the continuing development of these businesses will foster throughput growth and therefore increase revenues at Navios Logistics. Should this development be delayed, grain harvests be reduced, or the market experience an overall decrease in the demand for grain or iron ore, the operations in Navios Logistics could be adversely affected.

Factors Affecting Navios Holdings’ Results of Operations

Navios Holdings believes the principal factors that will affect its future results of operations are the economic, regulatory, political and governmental conditions that affect the shipping industry generally and that affect conditions in countries and markets in which its vessels engage in business. Please read “Risk Factors” included in Navios Holdings’ Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed with the SEC for a discussion of certain risks inherent in its business.

Navios Holdings actively manages the risk in its operations by: (i) operating the vessels in its fleet in accordance with all applicable international standards of safety and technical ship management; (ii) enhancing vessel utilization and profitability through an appropriate mix of long-term charters complemented by spot charters (time charters for short-term employment) and COAs; (iii) monitoring the financial impact of corporate exposure from both physical and FFAs transactions; (iv) monitoring market and counterparty credit risk limits; (v) adhering to risk management and operation policies and procedures; and (vi) requiring counterparty credit approvals.

Navios Holdings believes that important measures for analyzing trends in its results of operations include the following:

•

Market Exposure: Navios Holdings manages the size and composition of its fleet by seeking a mix between chartering and owning vessels in order to adjust to anticipated changes in market rates. Navios Holdings aims to achieve an appropriate balance between owned vessels and long and short-term chartered-in vessels and controls approximately 7.3 million dwt in dry bulk tonnage. Navios Holdings’ options to extend the charter duration of vessels it has under long-term time charter (durations of over 12 months) and its purchase options on chartered vessels permit Navios Holdings to adjust the cost and the fleet size to correspond to market conditions.

•

Available days: Available days are the total number of days a vessel is controlled by a company, less the aggregate number of days that the vessel is off-hire due to scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades or special surveys and ballast days relating to voyages. The shipping industry uses available days to measure the number of days in a period during which vessels should be capable of generating revenues.

•

Operating days: Operating days are the number of available days in a period, less the aggregate number of days that the vessels are off-hire due to any reason, including lack of demand or unforeseen circumstances. The shipping industry uses operating days to measure the aggregate number of days in a period during which vessels actually generate revenues.

•

Fleet utilization: Fleet utilization is obtained by dividing the number of operating days during a period by the number of available days during the period. The shipping industry uses fleet utilization to measure a company’s efficiency in finding suitable employment for its vessels and minimizing the amount of days that its vessels are off-hire for reasons other than scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades, special surveys or vessel positioning.

•

TCE rates: 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 compare daily earnings generated by vessels on time charters with daily earnings generated by vessels on voyage charters, because charter hire rates for vessels on voyage charters are generally not expressed in per day amounts, while charter hire rates for vessels on time charters generally are expressed in such amounts.

•

Equivalent vessels: Equivalent vessels are defined as the available days of the fleet divided by the number of the calendar days in the period.

Voyage and Time Charter

Revenues are driven primarily by the number and type of vessels in the fleet, the number of days during which such vessels operate and the amount of daily charter hire rates that the vessels earn under charters, which, in turn, are affected by a number of factors, including:

•

the duration of the charters;

•

the level of spot market rates at the time of charters;

•

decisions relating to vessel acquisitions and disposals;

•

the amount of time spent positioning vessels;

•

the amount of time that vessels spend in drydock undergoing repairs and upgrades;

•

the age, condition and specifications of the vessels; and

•

the aggregate level of supply and demand in the dry bulk shipping industry.

Time charters are available for varying periods, ranging from a single trip (spot charter) to a long-term period which may be many years. Under a time charter, owners assume no risk for finding business and obtaining and paying for fuel or other expenses related to the voyage, such as port entry fees. In general, a long-term time charter assures the vessel owner of a consistent stream of revenue. Operating the vessel in the spot market affords the owner greater spot market opportunity, which may result in high rates when vessels are in high demand or low rates when vessel availability exceeds demand. Vessel charter rates are affected by world economics, international events, weather conditions, labor strikes, governmental policies, supply and demand, and many other factors that might be beyond the control of management.

Consistent with industry practice, Navios Holdings uses TCE rates as a method of analyzing fluctuations between financial periods and as a method of equating revenue generated from a voyage charter to time charter revenue.

TCE rate also serves as an industry standard for measuring revenue and comparing results between geographical regions and among competitors.

The cost to maintain and operate a vessel increases with the age of the vessel. Older vessels are less fuel efficient, cost more to insure and require upgrades from time to time to comply with new regulations. The average age of Navios Holdings’ owned fleet is 10.7 years. As Navios Holdings’ fleet ages or if Navios Holdings expands its fleet by acquiring previously owned and older vessels, the cost per vessel would be expected to rise and, assuming all else, including rates, remains constant, vessel profitability would be expected to decrease.

Statement of Operations Breakdown by Segment

Navios Holdings reports financial information and evaluates its operations by charter revenues and not by vessel type, length of ship employment, customers or type of charter. Navios Holdings does not use discrete financial information to evaluate the operating results for each such type of charter. Although revenue can be identified for each type of charter, management does not identify expenses, profitability or other financial information on a charter-by-charter or type of charter basis. The reportable segments reflect the internal organization of the Company and are strategic businesses that offer different products and services. The Company currently has two reportable segments: the Dry bulk Vessel Operations and the Logistics Business. The Dry bulk Vessel Operations segment consists of the transportation and handling of bulk cargoes through the ownership, operation, and trading of vessels, freight, and FFAs. The Logistics Business segment consists of port terminal business, barge business and cabotage business in the Hidrovia region of South America. Navios Holdings measures segment performance based on net income attributable to Navios Holdings’ common stockholders.

For further segment information, please see Note 11 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this report.

	Three Month Period Ended March 31,
	2018			2017
	(unaudited)			(unaudited)
FLEET DATA
Available days		5,554			5,803
Operating days		5,517			5,791
Fleet utilization		99.3	%		99.8	%
Equivalent vessels		62			64
AVERAGE DAILY RESULTS
Time Charter Equivalents	$	10,983		$	7,857

During the three month period ended March 31, 2018, there were 249 less available days as compared to the same period during 2017 due to (i) a net decrease in available days of owned vessels by 292 days following the sale of Navios Herakles, Navios Horizon, Navios Ionian and the acquisition of Navios Equator Prosper; and (ii) a decrease in short-term charter-in fleet available days by 57 days. The overall decrease was partially mitigated by an increase in long-term charter-in fleet available days.

The average TCE rate for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $10,983 per day, which was 39.8% on $3,126 per day higher than the rate achieved in the same period during 2017. This was due primarily to the improved freight market.

Revenue: Revenue from dry bulk vessel operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 was $64.7 million as compared to $51.5 million for the same period during 2017. The increase of $13.2 million, or 25.6%, in dry bulk revenue was mainly attributable to an increase in the TCE rate per day by 39.8% to $10,983.

Revenue from the logistics business was $52.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $43.8 million for the same period in 2017. The increase was mainly attributable to (i) a $8.8 million increase in revenue from the port terminal business mainly due to the commencement of operations at the new iron ore terminal, (ii) a $1.3 million increase in revenue from the cabotage business mainly due to an increase in operating days and (iii) a $0.4 million increase in sales of products mainly due to an increase in the Paraguayan liquid port’s price of products sold. The overall increase was partially mitigated by a $2.1 million decrease in revenue from the barge business mainly related to liquid cargo transportation.

Administrative Service fee from Affiliates: Administrative fee revenue from affiliates increased by $1.7 million, or 32.1%, to $7.0 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $5.3 million for the same period in 2017. See the general and administrative expenses discussion below.

Time Charter, Voyage and Logistics Business Expenses: Time charter, voyage and logistics business expenses increased by $0.3 million, or 0.6%, to $51.0 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $50.7 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017.

Time charter and voyage expenses from dry bulk operations decreased by $1.5 million, or 4.1%, to $35.2 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $36.7 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017. This was primarily due to a decrease in provision for loss voyages and other voyage expenses by $3.0 million, partially mitigated by (i) an increase in charter-in expenses by $0.8 million; and (ii) an increase in port expenses by $0.7 million.

Of the total expenses for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, $15.8 million and $14.0 million, respectively, were related to Navios Logistics. The increase of $1.8 million in time charter, voyage and logistics business expenses related to Navios Logistics was mainly due to (i) an increase in time charter and voyage expenses of the port terminal business mainly attributable to the commencement of operations at the new iron ore terminal; (ii) an increase in time charter and voyage expenses of the barge business; and (iii) an increase in cost of products sold mainly attributable to the increase in the Paraguayan liquid port’s price of products purchased. This increase was partially mitigated by a decrease in time charter and voyage expenses of the cabotage business.

Direct Vessel Expenses: Direct vessel expenses decreased by $5.2 million, or 17.3%, to $24.8 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $30.0 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017. Direct vessel expenses include crew costs, provisions, deck and engine stores, lubricating oils, insurance premiums and costs for maintenance and repairs.

Direct vessel expenses from dry bulk operations decreased by $3.0 million, or 24.0%, to $9.5 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $12.5 million for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017. This decrease was mainly attributable to (i) the sale of Navios Herakles, Navios Horizon and Navios Ionian; (ii) a decrease in crew costs; (ii) a decrease in insurance costs; and (iii) a decrease in sundry general expenses.

Of the total amounts for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, $15.3 million and $17.5 million, respectively, were related to Navios Logistics. The decrease of $2.2 million in direct vessel expenses related to Navios Logistics was mainly attributable to (i) a $1.4 million decrease in cabotage business mainly attributable to reduced crew costs and repair and maintenance expenses; and (ii) a $0.8 million decrease in barge business mainly attributable to decreased crew costs.

General and Administrative Expenses Incurred on Behalf of Affiliates: General and administrative expenses incurred on behalf of affiliates increased by $1.7 million, or 32.1%, to $7.0 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $5.3 million for the same period in 2017. See the general and administrative expenses discussion below.

General and administrative expenses	$	6,927	$	6,384

The increase in general and administrative expenses by $0.5 million, or 8.5%, to $6.9 million for three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $6.4 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, was mainly attributable to (i) a $0.4 million increase in general and administrative expenses of logistics business; and (ii) a $0.1 million increase in other administrative expenses.

Depreciation and Amortization: For the three month period ended March 31, 2018, depreciation and amortization increased by $0.5 million to $26.1 million as compared to $25.6 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017.

Depreciation expenses related to dry bulk vessel operations decreased by $0.5 million, or 2.7%, to $18.2 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $18.7 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017. This decrease was primarily due to the sale of Navios Herakles, Navios Horizon and Navios Ionian and the acquisition of Navios Equator Prosper. Amortization expenses related to dry bulk operations decreased by $0.1 million, or 12.5%, to $0.7 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $0.8 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017.

Of the total amount of depreciation and amortization for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, $7.2 million and $6.1 million, respectively, related to Navios Logistics. The increase of $1.1 million in depreciation and amortization of the logistics business was mainly due to a $1.4 million increase in the port terminal business mainly due to the commencement of operations at the new iron ore terminal. The overall increase was partially mitigated by (i) a $0.2 million decrease in the barge business; and (ii) a $0.1 million decrease in the cabotage business.

Interest Expense and Finance Cost, Net: Interest expense and finance cost, net increased by $4.4 million, or 16.0%, to $31.8 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $27.4 million in the same period in 2017.

This increase was mainly due to (i) a $0.8 million increase in interest income of the dry bulk vessel operations, mainly due to higher interest income from loans provided to Navios Europe I and Navios Europe II and the amortization of the premium from the transfer in March 2017 of Navios Holdings’ participation in the Navios Revolving Loans I (as defined herein) to Navios Partners; (ii) a $1.7 million increase in interest expense and finance cost, of the dry bulk vessel operations, mainly attributable to increase in interest expense and finance costs related to 2022 Senior Secured Notes entered into in November 2017 and the full repayment of Navios Acquisition Loan and 2019 Notes (as defined herein); and (iii) a $3.5 million increase in interest expenses and finance cost, net of logistics business mainly due to the Term Loan B Facility issued in the fourth quarter of 2017 and reduced capitalized interest following the completion of the construction of the iron ore terminal.

Impairment loss on sale of vessel: During the period ended March 31, 2018, the Company recognized (i) an impairment loss of $6.7 million relating to the sale of Navios Herakles. During the three month period ended March 31, 2017, the Company recognized an impairment loss of $9.1 million relating to the sale of Navios Ionian.

Other Expense, Net: Other expense, net increased by $3.4 million, to $4.8 million net expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $1.4 million net expense for the same period in 2017. This increase was due to (i) a $1.5 million increase in other expense, net of dry bulk vessel operations; and (ii) a $1.9 million increase in other expense, net of the logistics business.

The increase in other expense, net of dry bulk vessels operations was mainly due to (i) a $0.8 million increase in loss from foreign exchange differences; (ii) a $0.3 million increase in taxes other than income taxes; and (iii) a $1.0 million increase in miscellaneous other expenses, net. This increase was partially mitigated by a $0.6 million decrease in miscellaneous voyage expenses.

The increase in other expense, net of the logistics business was mainly due to (i) a $1.0 million decrease in gain of sale of assets mainly attributable to the sale of two self-propelled barges in the first quarter of 2017; (ii) a $0.2 million decrease in other expense, net in the cabotage business; and (iii) a $0.1 million decrease in other expense, net in the port terminal business. The overall decrease was partially offset by a $1.2 million increase in other expense, net in the barge business.

Equity in Net (loss)/ Earnings of Affiliated Companies: Equity in net earnings of affiliated companies decreased by $11.6 million, or 227.2%, to $6.5 million loss for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $5.1 million earnings for the same period in 2017, mainly due to a (i) $11.5 million decrease in equity method income; and (ii) a $0.1 million decrease in amortization of deferred gain from the sale of vessels to Navios Partners (as more fully described below). The $11.5 million decrease in equity method income was mainly due to a $14.8 million decrease in equity method income from Navios Acquisition, partially mitigated by (i) a $2.9 million increase in equity method income from Navios Partners; (ii) a $0.3 million increase in equity method income from Navios Europe I and Navios Europe II; and (iii) a $0.1 million increase in equity method income from Navios Containers.

Income Tax Benefit: Income tax benefit remained stable at $0.4 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017.

Net Loss Attributable to the Noncontrolling Interest: Net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest decreased by $0.7 million to $0.4 million net loss for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $1.1 million net income for the same period in 2017. This decrease was attributable to the decrease in net loss of the logistics business for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to the same period in 2017.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Navios Holdings has historically financed its capital requirements with cash flows from operations, equity contributions from stockholders, issuance of debt and borrowings under bank credit facilities. Main uses of funds have been capital expenditures for the acquisition of new vessels, new construction and upgrades at the port terminals, expenditures incurred in connection with ensuring that the owned vessels comply with international and regulatory standards, repayments and/or prepayments of debt and payments of dividends. Navios Holdings may from time to time, subject to restrictions under its debt and equity instruments, including limitations on dividends and repurchases under its preferred stock, depending upon market conditions and financing needs, use funds to refinance or repurchase its debt and/or equity in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise, in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, at prices and on terms Navios Holdings deems appropriate and subject to Navios Holdings cash requirements for other purposes, compliance with the covenants under Navios Holdings’ debt agreements and equity instruments, and other factors management deems relevant. Generally, Navios Holding’s sources of funds may be from cash from operations, long-term borrowings and other debt or equity financings, proceeds from asset sales and proceeds from sale of its stake in its investments. We cannot assure you that we will be able to secure adequate financing or obtain additional funds on favorable terms, to meet our liquidity needs as our ability to secure adequate financing and obtain additional funds is partially dependent on market and industry factors. See “Working Capital Position” and “Long-Term Debt Obligations and Credit Arrangements” for further discussion of Navios Holdings’ working capital position.

The following table presents cash flow information derived from the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of cash flows of Navios Holdings for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017.

Cash provided by operating activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 as compared to cash provided by in operating activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2017:

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $7.9 million to $17.8 million of cash provided by operating activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $25.7 million of cash provided by operating activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2017. In determining net cash provided by operating activities, net loss is adjusted for the effects of certain non-cash items as discussed below.

The aggregate adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash provided by operating activities was a $46.1 million gain for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, which consisted mainly of the following adjustments: $26.1 million of depreciation and amortization, a $6.9 million movement in earnings in affiliates, net of dividends received, a $6.7 million impairment loss on sale of vessel, $3.6 million of amortization of deferred drydock expenses, $1.6 million of amortization of deferred finance fees, $1.2 million relating to share-based compensation, and a $0.4 million provision for losses on accounts receivable. These adjustments were partially offset by a $0.4 million movement in income taxes.

The net cash inflow resulting from the change in operating assets and liabilities of $12.9 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 resulted from a $16.6 million increase in net payables to affiliates, mainly consisted of management fees, administrative fees, drydocking and other expenses prepaid by the affiliates according to our management agreements, a $11.8 million increase in accounts payable and a $1.4 million decrease in accounts receivable. These were partially offset by a $7.3 million decrease in accrued expenses, a $5.1 million payment for drydock and special survey costs, a $2.6 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets, a $1.1 million decrease in deferred income and a $0.8 million decrease in other long term liabilities.

Cash used in financing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 as compared to cash used in financing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2017:

Cash used in financing activities was $12.6 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2018, as compared to $5.9 million cash used in financing activities for the same period in 2017.

Cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was the result of (i) $10.1 million of payments performed in connection with the Company’s outstanding indebtedness; (ii) $1.5 million in payments for the repayment of long-term debt and (iii) $1.0 million in payments for the repayment of Navios Logistics’ notes payable.

This was partially offset by (i) $4.0 million proceeds from the transfer of the Company’s participation in Navios Revolving Loans I, as defined herein, and Navios Term Loans I, as defined herein, both relating to Navios Europe I; and (ii) $0.7 million of proceeds from Navios Logistics’ Notes Payable (as defined below).

Adjusted EBITDA: EBITDA represents net (loss)/income attributable to Navios Holdings’ common stockholders before interest and finance costs before depreciation and amortization and before income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA before stock-based compensation. We use Adjusted EBITDA as a liquidity measure and reconcile Adjusted EBITDA to net cash provided by operating activities, the most comparable U.S. GAAP liquidity measure. Adjusted EBITDA 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 (increase)/decrease in operating liabilities, (iii) net interest cost, (iv) deferred finance charges and gains/(losses) on bond and debt extinguishment, (v) provision/recovery for losses on accounts receivable, (vi) equity in affiliates, net of dividends received, (vii) payments for drydock and special survey costs, (viii) noncontrolling interest, (ix) gain/ (loss) on sale of assets/ subsidiaries, (x) unrealized (loss)/gain on derivatives, and (xi) loss on sale and reclassification to earnings of available for-sale securities and impairment charges. Navios Holdings believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a basis upon which liquidity can be assessed and represents useful information to investors regarding Navios Holdings’ ability to service and/or incur indebtedness, pay capital expenditures, meet working capital requirements and pay dividends. Navios Holdings also believes that Adjusted EBITDA is used (i) by prospective and current lessors as well as 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.

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

Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2018 was $21.4 million as compared to $8.4 million for the same period of 2017. The $13.0 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to (i) a $21.6 million increase in revenue; (ii) a $5.4 million decrease in direct vessel expenses (excluding the amortization of deferred drydock and special survey costs); (iii) a $2.4 million decrease in impairment losses. This overall increase of $29.4 million was partially mitigated by (i) a $11.6 million decrease in equity in net earnings from affiliated companies; (ii) a $3.4 million increase in other expense, net; (iii) a $0.7 million increase in net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest; (iv) a $0.4 million increase in general and administrative expenses (excluding share-based compensation expenses); and (iv) a $0.3 million increase in time charter, voyage and logistics business expenses.

Long-Term Debt Obligations and Credit Arrangements

Secured Credit Facilities

As of March 31, 2018, the Company had secured credit facilities with various banks with a total outstanding balance of $209.9 million. The purpose of the facilities was to finance the construction or acquisition of vessels or refinance existing indebtedness. All of the facilities are denominated in U.S. dollars and bear interest based on LIBOR plus spread ranging from 2.55% to 3.60% per annum. The facilities are repayable in either semi-annual or quarterly installments, followed by balloon payments with maturities, ranging from March 2020 to November 2022. See also the maturity table included below.

The facilities are secured by first priority mortgages on certain of Navios Holdings’ vessels and other collateral.

The credit facilities contain a number of restrictive covenants that limit Navios Holdings and/or certain of its subsidiaries from, among other things: incurring or guaranteeing indebtedness; entering into affiliate transactions; charging, pledging or encumbering the vessels securing such facilities; changing the flag, class, management or ownership of certain Navios Holdings’ vessels; changing the commercial and technical management of certain Navios Holdings’ vessels; selling or changing the ownership of certain Navios Holdings’ vessels; and subordinating the obligations under the credit facilities to any general and administrative costs relating to the vessels. The credit facilities also require the vessels to comply with the ISM Code and ISPS Code and to maintain valid safety management certificates and documents of compliance at all times. Additionally, the credit facilities require compliance with the covenants contained in the indentures governing the 2022 Senior Secured Notes (as defined below) and the 2022 Notes (as defined below). Among other events, it will be an event of default under the credit facilities if the financial covenants are not complied with or if Angeliki Frangou and her affiliates, together, own less than 20% of the outstanding share capital of Navios Holdings.

The majority of the Company’s senior secured credit facilities require compliance with maintenance covenants, including (i) value-to-loan ratio covenants, based on either charter-adjusted valuations, or charter-free valuations, ranging from over 115% to 135%, (ii) minimum liquidity up to a maximum of $30.0 million, and (iii) net total debt divided by total assets, as defined in each senior secured credit facility, ranging from a maximum of 75% to 80%. Certain covenants in our senior secured credit facilities have been amended for a specific period of time up to a maximum of three quarters (from the current balance sheet date) to include net total debt divided by total assets, as defined in each senior secured credit facility, to a maximum of 90%.

As of March 31, 2018, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants under each of its credit facilities.

Working Capital Position

On March 31, 2018, Navios Holdings’ current assets totaled $246.9 million, while current liabilities totaled $241.5 million, resulting in a positive working capital position of $5.4 million. Navios Holdings’ cash forecast indicates that it will generate sufficient cash during the next 12 months from May 29, 2018 to make the required principal and interest payments on its indebtedness, provide for the normal working capital requirements of the business and remain in a positive working capital position through May 29, 2019.

Capital Expenditures

During the first quarter of 2018, three new pushboats were delivered to Navios Logistics. As of March 31, 2018, Navios Logistics had paid $32.0 million for the construction of the three new pushboats.

Navios Logistics has signed a shipbuilding contract for the construction of a river and estuary tanker for a total consideration of $15.3 million (€12.4 million). As of March 31, 2018, Navios Logistics had paid $7.5 million related to the construction of the tanker vessel. The vessel is expected to be delivered in the second quarter of 2018.

During the second quarter of 2017, Navios Logistics substantially completed the expansion of its dry port in Uruguay. As of March 31, 2018, Navios Logistics had paid $158.5 million related to the iron ore terminal expansion.

On September 4, 2017, Navios Logistics signed an agreement for the construction of covers for dry barges for a total consideration of $1.1 million. As of March 31, 2018, Navios Logistics had paid the whole amount.

Dividend Policy

In November 2015, due to the prolonged weakness in the dry bulk industry, Navios Holdings announced that the Board of Directors decided to suspend the quarterly dividend to its common stockholders in order to conserve cash and improve its liquidity. In February 2016, in furtherance of its efforts to reduce its cash requirements, Navios Holdings announced the suspension of payment of quarterly dividends on its preferred stock, including the Series G and Series H, until market conditions improve. The Board of Directors and Navios Holdings’ management believe such a decision is in the best long-term interests of the Company and its stakeholders. The Board of Directors will reassess the Company’s distribution policy as the environment changes. The reinstatement, declaration and payment of any further dividend remains subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend on, among other things, market conditions, Navios Holdings’ cash requirements after taking into account market opportunities, restrictions under its equity instruments, credit agreements, indentures and other debt obligations and such other factors as the Board of Directors may deem advisable.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Accounts receivable

Concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is limited due to the fact that Navios Holdings’ customers are internationally dispersed and have a variety of end markets in which they sell, therefore, management believes that no additional credit risk beyond amounts provided for collection losses is inherent in Navios Holdings’ trade receivables. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, only one customer accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenue.

If one or more of our customers does not perform under one or more contracts with us and we are not able to find a replacement contract, or if a customer exercises certain rights to terminate the contract, we could suffer a loss of revenues that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We could lose a customer or the benefits of a contract if, among other things:

•

the customer fails to make payments because of its financial inability, the curtailment or cessation of its operations, its disagreements with us or otherwise;

•

the customer terminates the contract because we fail to meet their contracted storage needs;

•

the customer terminates the contract because we fail to deliver the vessel within a fixed period of time, the vessel is lost or damaged beyond repair, there are serious deficiencies in the vessel or prolonged off-hire, default under the contract; or

•

the customer terminates the contract because the vessel has been subject to seizure for more than a specified number of days.

See below, under “Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements”, for a discussion about the dispute between the Navios Logistics and Vale International S.A. (“Vale”), relating to the service contract for the iron ore port facility in Nueva Palmira, Uruguay.

Cash deposits with financial institutions

Cash deposits in excess of amounts covered by government-provided insurance are exposed to loss in the event of non-performance by financial institutions. Navios Holdings does maintain cash deposits in excess of government-provided insurance limits. Navios Holdings also reduces exposure to credit risk by dealing with a diversified group of major financial institutions.

Effects of Inflation

Navios Holdings does not consider inflation to be a significant risk to the cost of doing business in the foreseeable future. Inflation has a moderate impact on operating expenses, drydocking expenses and corporate overhead.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Charter hire payments to third parties for chartered-in vessels are treated as operating leases for accounting purposes.

Navios Holdings is also committed to making rental payments under operating leases for its office premises. Future minimum rental payments under Navios Holdings’ non-cancelable operating leases are included in the contractual obligations schedule above. As of March 31, 2018, Navios Holdings was contingently liable for letters of guarantee and letters of credit amounting to $0.6 million issued by various banks in favor of various organizations and the total amount was collateralized by cash deposits, which are included as a component of restricted cash.

In November 2012 (as amended in March 2014), the Company entered into an agreement with Navios Partners (the “Navios Partners Guarantee”) to provide Navios Partners with guarantees against counterparty default on certain existing charters, which had previously been covered by the charter insurance for the same vessels, same periods and same amounts. The Navios Partners Guarantee provides for a maximum possible payout of $20.0 million by the Company to Navios Partners.

The Company is involved in various disputes and arbitration proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Provisions have been recognized in the financial statements for all such proceedings where the Company believes that a liability may be probable, and for which the amounts can be reasonably estimated, based upon facts known on the date the financial statements were prepared. Although the Company cannot predict with certainty the ultimate resolutions of these matters, in the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

On October 7, 2016, a putative class action complaint was filed against the Company and six of its directors in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York by a purported holder of Series G American Depositary Shares and Series H American Depositary Shares. The complaint asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty and contract. The complaint sought, among other things, unspecified monetary damages, a declaration regarding certain of the Company’s alleged obligations under the applicable certificates of designation, the restoration of certain alleged rights to non-tendering holders if the exchange offer that commenced on September 19, 2016 was consummated, and an award of plaintiff’s costs. On November 28, 2016, plaintiff’s counsel informed the Court that the litigation was moot in light of the failure of the consent solicitation (which did not attain the necessary support from the holders of Series G American Depositary Shares and Series H American Depositary Shares). On January 10, 2017, plaintiff’s counsel submitted a motion for attorneys’ fees to which the Company submitted an opposition brief on February 3, 2017, which requested that the Court deny the request for attorneys’ fees in its entirety. Plaintiff’s counsel’s motion for attorney’s fees was fully briefed on February 17, 2017. On September 26, 2017, the Court issued a decision denying plaintiff’s application for an award of attorneys’ fees and requiring that any party wishing to restore the case to the Court’s active docket do so by October 10, 2017. No party requested that the case be restored to the active docket by the October 10, 2017 deadline. No appeal of the Court’s denial of plaintiff’s application for an award of attorneys’ fees has been taken to date and the time to file an appeal has expired.

Navios Logistics had a dispute with Vale regarding the termination date of a COA contract, which was under arbitration proceedings in New York. On February 10, 2017, the arbitration tribunal ruled in favor of Navios Logistics. Vale was ordered to pay Navios Logistics $21.5 million, including all unpaid invoices, compensation for late payment of invoices, and reimbursement of legal fees incurred. The full amount was received in March 2017.

On March 30, 2016, Navios Logistics received written notice from Vale stating that Vale did not intend to perform the service contract entered into between Corporacion Navios S.A. and Vale on September 27, 2013, relating to the iron ore port facility in Nueva Palmira, Uruguay. Navios Logistics initiated arbitration proceedings in London on June 10, 2016 pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions of the service contract. On December 20, 2016, a London arbitration tribunal ruled that the Vale port contract remains in full force and effect. If Vale were to further repudiate or renounce the contract, we may elect to terminate the contract and then would be entitled to damages calculated by reference to guaranteed volumes and agreed tariffs for the remaining period of the contract.

Navios Logistics issued a guarantee and indemnity letter that guarantees the performance by Petrolera San Antonio S.A. (a consolidated subsidiary) of all its obligations to Vitol S.A. up to $12.0 million. This guarantee expires on March 1, 2019.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks

Navios Holdings is exposed to certain risks related to interest rate, foreign currency and charter rate risks. To manage these risks, Navios Holdings may use interest rate swaps (for interest rate risk) and FFAs (for charter rate risk).

Interest Rate Risk

Debt Instruments — On March 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, Navios Holdings had a total of $1,705.3 million and $1,717.8 million, respectively, of long-term indebtedness. All of the Company’s debt is U.S. dollar-denominated and bears interest at a floating rate, except for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes, the 2022 Notes, the 2022 Logistics Senior Notes and one Navios Logistics’ loans discussed in “Liquidity and Capital Resources” that bear interest at a fixed rate.

The interest on the loan facilities is at a floating rate and, therefore, changes in interest rates would affect their related interest expense. As of March 31, 2018, the outstanding amount of the Company’s floating rate loan facilities was $266.6 million. The interest rate on the 2022 Senior Secured Notes, the 2022 Notes, the 2022 Logistics Senior Notes, and one Navios Logistics’ loans is fixed and, therefore, changes in interest rates affect their fair value, which as of March 31, 2018 was $1,182.6 million, but do not affect their related interest expense. A change in the LIBOR rate of 100 basis points would change interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2018 by $0.7 million.

For a detailed discussion of Navios Holdings’ debt instruments refer to the section “Long-Term Debt Obligations and Credit Arrangements” included elsewhere in this document.

Foreign Currency Risk

Foreign Currency: In general, the shipping industry is a U.S. dollar dominated industry. Revenue is set mainly in U.S. dollars, and approximately 58.7% of Navios Holdings’ expenses are also incurred in U.S. dollars. Certain of our expenses are paid in foreign currencies and a one percent change in the exchange rates of the various currencies at March 31, 2018 would change net income by approximately $0.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Critical Accounting Policies

Navios Holdings’ interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires Navios Holdings to make estimates in the application of its accounting policies based on the best assumptions, judgments and opinions of management. Critical accounting policies are those that reflect significant judgments or uncertainties, and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. All significant accounting policies are as described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Investments in Equity Securities

Navios Holdings evaluates its investments in Navios Acquisition, Navios Partners, Navios Containers, Navios Europe I and Navios Europe II for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on a quarterly basis. Consideration is given to (i) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than the carrying value, (ii) the financial condition and near-term prospects of such companies, and (iii) the intent and ability of the Company to remain its investment in these companies for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value. As of March 31, 2018 management considers the decline in the market value of its investment in Navios Partners and Navios Acquisition to be temporary. However, there is the potential for the future impairment charges relative to these equity securities if their respective fair values do not recover and our OTTI analysis indicates such write downs are necessary which may have a material adverse impact on our results of operations in the period recognized (see also Note 13 included elsewhere in this Report).

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a)

Basis of presentation: The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments for a fair statement of Navios Holdings’ consolidated balance sheets, statements of comprehensive (loss)/income, statements of cash flows and statements of changes in equity for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The footnotes are condensed as permitted by the requirements for interim financial statements and accordingly, do not include information and disclosures required under United States generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. All such adjustments are deemed to be of a normal recurring nature. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes included in Navios Holdings’ Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed on Form 20-F with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Change in accounting principles:

ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash

The Company historically presented changes in restricted cash and cash equivalents depending on the nature of the cash flow within the consolidated statement of cash flows. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash, which requires that restricted cash and cash equivalents be included as components of total cash and cash equivalents as presented on the statement of cash flows. The recognition and measurement guidance for restricted cash is not affected. The Company applied this guidance retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the Company’s financial statements.

The effect of the retrospective application of this change in accounting principle on the Company’s statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2017 resulted in a decrease of cash provided by operating activities in the amount of $2,907 and a decrease of cash used in financing activities in the amount of $1,976 with a corresponding increase in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash of $931.

Total cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash	$	121,853	$	138,190

ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606)

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606). The guidance provides a unified model to determine how revenue is recognized. In doing so, the Company makes judgments including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price, and allocating the transaction price to each performance obligation. Revenue is recognized when (or as) the Company transfers promised goods or services to its customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services, which occurs when (or as) the Company satisfies its contractual obligations and transfers control of the promised goods or services to its customers. In determining the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under its agreements, the Company performs the following steps: (i) identification of the promised goods or services in the contract; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods or services are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations based on estimated selling prices; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

The Company’s contract revenues from time chartering continue to be governed by ASC 840 Leases. Upon adoption of ASC 606, the timing and recognition of earnings from time charter contracts to which the Company is party did not change from previous practice.

(b)

Principles of consolidation: The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Navios Holdings, a Marshall Islands corporation, and its majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated statements.

Subsidiaries: Subsidiaries are those entities in which the Company has an interest of more than one half of the voting rights or otherwise has power to govern the financial and operating policies. The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given up, shares issued or liabilities undertaken at the date of acquisition. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. All subsidiaries included in the consolidated financial statements are 100% owned, except for Navios Logistics, which is 63.8% owned.

UNAUDITED CONDENSED NOTES TO THE

CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars — except share data)

Investments in Affiliates: Affiliates are entities over which the Company generally has between 20% and 50% of the voting rights, or over which the Company has significant influence, but it does not exercise control. Investments in these entities are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Under this method the Company records an investment in the stock of an affiliate at cost, and adjusts the carrying amount for its share of the earnings or losses of the affiliate subsequent to the date of investment and reports the recognized earnings or losses in income. Dividends received from an affiliate reduce the carrying amount of the investment. The Company recognizes gains and losses in earnings for the issuance of shares by its affiliates, provided that the issuance of shares qualifies as a sale of shares. When the Company’s share of losses in an affiliate equals or exceeds its interest in the affiliate, the Company does not recognize further losses, unless the Company has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the affiliate.

Affiliates included in the financial statements accounted for under the equity method

In the consolidated financial statements of Navios Holdings, the following entities are included as affiliates and are accounted for under the equity method for such periods: (i) Navios Partners and its subsidiaries (ownership interest as of March 31, 2018 was 20.2%, which includes a 2.0% general partner interest); (ii) Navios Acquisition and its subsidiaries (economic interest as of March 31, 2018 was 47.7%); (iii) Acropolis Chartering and Shipping Inc. (“Acropolis”) (economic interest as of March 31, 2018 was 35.0%), (iv) Navios Europe I and its subsidiaries (economic interest as of March 31, 2018 was 47.5%); (v) Navios Europe II and its subsidiaries (economic interest as of March 31, 2018 was 47.5%); and (vi) Navios Containers and its subsidiaries (economic interest as of March 31, 2018 was 3.1%).

(c)

Revenue Recognition:

Revenue is recorded when services are rendered, the Company has a signed charter agreement or other evidence of an arrangement, the price is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. The Company generates revenue from transportation of cargo, time charter of vessels, port terminal operations, bareboat charters, contracts of affreightment/voyage contracts, demurrages and contracts covering dry or liquid port terminal operations.

Voyage revenues for the transportation of cargo were previously recognized ratably over the estimated relative transit time of each voyage. A voyage was deemed to commence when a vessel arrives at the loading port, as applicable under the contract, and was deemed to end upon the completion of the discharge of the current cargo. Under a voyage charter, a vessel is provided for the transportation of specific goods between specific ports in return for payment of an agreed upon freight per ton of cargo.

Revenues are recorded net of address commissions. Address commissions represent a discount provided directly to the charterers based on a fixed percentage of the agreed upon charter rate. Since address commissions represent a discount (sales incentive) on services rendered by the Company and no identifiable benefit is received in exchange for the consideration provided to the charterer, these commissions are presented as a reduction of revenue.

Revenue from contracts of affreightment (“COA”)/voyage contracts relating to our barges were previously recognized ratably over the estimated relative transit time of each voyage. A voyage was deemed to commence upon the barge’s arrival at the loading port, as applicable under the contract, and was deemed to end upon the completion of discharge under the current voyage. The percentage of transit time was based on the days traveled as of the balance sheet date divided by the total days expected for the voyage. The position of the barge at the balance sheet date was determined by the days traveled as of the balance sheet date over the total voyage of the pushboat having the barge in tow. Revenue arising from contracts that provide our customers with continuous access to convoy capacity was recognized ratably over the period of the contracts.

Demurrage income represents payments made by the charterer to the vessel owner when loading or discharging time exceeds the stipulated time in the voyage charter and is recognized as it is earned.

Upon adoption of ASC 606, the Company will recognize revenue ratably from the vessel’s/barge’s arrival at the loading port, as applicable under the contract, to when the charterer’s cargo is discharged as well as defer costs that meet the definition of “costs to fulfill a contract” and relate directly to the contract.

Revenues earned under contracts of affreightment (“COA”)/voyage contracts within the Dry Bulk Vessel Operations, amounted to $8,619 and $9,659 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Revenues earned under contracts of affreightment (“COA”)/voyage contracts within the Logistics business, amounted to $8,929 and $10,306 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Revenues from time chartering and bareboat chartering of vessels and barges are accounted for as operating leases and are thus recognized on a straight line basis as the average revenue over the rental periods of such charter agreements as service is performed, except for loss generating time charters, in which case the loss is recognized in the period when such loss is determined. A time charter involves placing a vessel or barge at the charterer’s disposal for a period of time during which the charterer uses the vessel in return for the payment of a specified daily hire rate. Short period charters for less than three months are referred to as spot-charters. Charters extending three months to a year are generally referred to as medium-term charters. All other charters are considered long-term. Under time charters, operating costs such as for crews, maintenance and insurance are typically paid by the owner of the vessel. Revenues from time chartering of vessels in the Dry Bulk Vessel Operations amounted to $55,734 and $37,295 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Revenues from time chartering and bareboat chartering of vessels and barges in the Logistics business amounted to $18,546 and $17,907 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

For vessels operating in pooling arrangements, the Company earns a portion of total revenues generated by the pool, net of expenses incurred by the pool. The amount allocated to each pool participant vessel, including the Company’s vessels, is determined in accordance with an agreed-upon formula, which is determined by margins awarded to each vessel in the pool based on the vessel’s age, design and other performance characteristics. Revenue under pooling arrangements is accounted for on the accrual basis and is recognized in the period in which the variability is resolved. The allocation of such net revenue may be subject to future adjustments by the pool, however, such changes are not expected to be material. Revenue for vessels operating in pooling arrangements in the Dry Bulk Vessel Operations amounted to $0 and $4,341 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Profit-sharing revenues are calculated at an agreed percentage of the excess of the charterer’s average daily income (calculated on a quarterly or half-yearly basis) or the Baltic Dry Index over an agreed amount and accounted for on an accrual basis based on provisional amounts and for those contracts that provisional accruals cannot be made due to the nature of the profit sharing elements, these are accounted for on the actual cash settlement. Profit sharing revenues from the Dry Bulk Vessel Operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 amounted to $133 and $145, respectively.

Revenues from dry port terminal operations consist of an agreed flat fee per ton and cover the services performed to unload barges (or trucks), transfer the product into silos or the stockpiles for temporary storage and then loading the ocean-going vessels. Revenues are recognized upon completion of loading the ocean-going vessels. Revenue arising from contracts that provide our customers with continuous access to port terminal storage and transshipment capacity is recognized ratably over the period of the contracts. Additionally, fees are charged for vessel dockage and for storage time in excess of contractually specified terms. Dockage revenues are recognized ratably up to completion of loading as the performance obligation is met evenly over the loading period. Storage fees are assessed and recognized at the point when the product remains in the silo storage beyond the contractually agreed time allowed. Storage fee revenue is recognized ratably over the storage period and ends when the product is loaded onto the ocean-going vessel. Revenue from port terminal operations of the Logistics business amounted to $14,390 and $5,714 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Revenues from storage fees (dry port) of the Logistics business amounted to $267 and $370 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Dockage revenues from the Logistics business in the dry port terminal operations amounted to $607 and $656 for the three months period ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Revenues from liquid port terminal consist mainly of sales of petroleum products in the Paraguayan market and revenues from liquid port operations. Revenues from liquid port terminal operations consist of an agreed flat fee per cubic meter or a fixed rate over a specific period to cover the services performed to unload barges, transfer the products into the tanks for temporary storage and then loading the trucks. Revenues that consist of an agreed flat fee per cubic meter are recognized upon completion of loading the trucks. Revenues from liquid port terminal operations that consist of a fixed rate over a specific period are recognized ratably over the storage period as the performance obligation is met evenly over time, ending when the product is loaded onto the trucks. Revenues from sale of products by the Logistics business amounted to $8,425 and $8,012 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Revenues from liquid port terminal operations from the Logistics business amounted to $998 and $735 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Additionally, revenues consist of an agreed flat fee per cubic meter to cover the services performed to unload barges, transfer the products into the tanks for temporary storage and then loading the trucks. Revenues are recognized upon completion of loading the trucks. Additionally, fees are charged for storage time in excess of contractually specified terms. Storage fee revenue is recognized ratably over the storage period and ends when the product is loaded onto the trucks.

Recovery of lost revenue under credit default insurance for charterers is accounted for as gain contingency and is recognized when all contingencies are resolved. The amount of recovery of lost revenue is recorded within the caption “Revenue” and any amount recovered in excess of the lost revenue is recorded within the caption “Other income”.

Expenses related to our revenue-generating contracts are recognized as incurred.

Administrative fee revenue from affiliates: Administrative fee revenue from affiliates consists of fees earned on the provision of administrative services pursuant to administrative services agreements with our affiliates (Refer to Note 8). Administrative services include: bookkeeping, audit and accounting services, legal and insurance services, administrative and clerical services, banking and financial services, advisory services, client and investor relations and other general and administrative services. These revenues are recognized as the services are provided to affiliates.

The general and administrative expenses incurred on behalf of affiliates are determined based on a combination of actual expenses incurred on behalf of the affiliates as well as a reasonable allocation of expenses that are not affiliate specific but incurred on behalf of all affiliates.

Forward Freight Agreements (“FFAs”): Realized gains or losses from FFAs are recognized monthly concurrent with cash settlements. In addition, FFAs are “marked-to-market” quarterly to determine the fair values which generate unrealized gains or losses. The Company has not entered into FFA trades for any of the periods presented.

Deferred Income and Cash Received In Advance: Deferred voyage revenue primarily relates to cash received from charterers prior to it being earned. These amounts are recognized as revenue over the voyage or charter period.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

In January 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (Topic 350)”. This update addresses concerns expressed about the cost and complexity of the goodwill impairment test and simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. The amendments in this ASU are required for public business entities and other entities that have goodwill reported in their financial statements and have not elected the private company alternative for the subsequent measurement of goodwill. The amendments are effective for public business entities that are SEC filers for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, FASB issued ASU 2017-03, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (Topic 250) and Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323)”. The ASU amends the Codification for SEC staff announcements made at recent Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) meetings. The SEC guidance that specifically relates to our consolidated financial statements was from the September 2016 meeting, where the SEC staff expressed their expectations about the extent of disclosures registrants should make about the effects of the new FASB guidance as well as any amendments issued prior to adoption, on revenue (ASU 2014-09), leases (ASU 2016-02) and credit losses on financial instruments (ASU 2016-13) in accordance with SAB Topic 11.M. Registrants are required to disclose the effect that recently issued accounting standards will have on their financial statements when adopted in a future period. In cases where a registrant cannot reasonably estimate the impact of the adoption, then additional qualitative disclosures should be considered. The ASU incorporates these SEC staff views into ASC 250 and adds references to that guidance in the transition paragraphs of each of the three new standards. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In June 2016, FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” This standard requires entities to measure all expected credit losses of financial assets held at a reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts in order to record credit losses in a more timely manner. ASU 2016-13 also amends the accounting for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities and purchased financial assets with credit deterioration. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, although early adoption is permitted for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”. ASU 2016-02 will apply to both capital (or finance) leases and operating leases. According to ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize assets (right of use asset) and liabilities (lease liabilities) on the balance sheet for both types of leases, capital (or finance) leases and operating leases, with terms greater than 12 months. ASU 2016 – 02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted.

This guidance requires companies to identify lease and non-lease components of a lease agreement. Lease components relate to the right to use the leased asset and non-lease components relate to payments for goods or services that are transferred separately from the right to use the underlying asset. Total lease consideration is allocated to lease and non-lease components on a relative standalone basis. The recognition of revenues related to lease components will be governed by ASC 842 while revenue related to non-lease components will be subject to ASC 606.

In January 2018, the FASB issued a proposed amendment to ASC 842, Leases, that would provide an entity the optional transition method to initially account for the impact of the adoption with a cumulative adjustment to accumulated deficit on the effective date of the ASU, January 1, 2019 rather than January 1, 2017, which would eliminate the need to restate amounts presented prior to January 1, 2019. In addition, this proposed amendment, lessors can elect, as a practical expedient, not to allocate the total consideration to lease and non-lease components based on their relative standalone selling prices. If adopted, this practical expedient will allow lessors to elect a combined single lease component presentation if (i) the timing and pattern of the revenue recognition of the combined single lease component is the same, and (ii) the related lease component and, the combined single lease component would be classified as an operating lease.

ASC 842 provides practical expedients that allow entities to not (i) reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are considered or contain leases; (ii) reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and (iii) reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases.

The Company plans to adopt the standard on January 1, 2019 and expects to elect the use of practical expedients. If the proposed amendment to ASC 842 is adopted, the Company would elect the transition method for adoption as described above. Based on a preliminary assessment, the Company expects the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its assets and liabilities due to its charter-in contracts and the recognition of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets although adoption is not expected to significantly change the recognition, measurement or presentation of lease expenses within the statements of comprehensive (loss)/income or cash flows.

With regards to the Company’s charter-out contracts, the Company is not expecting that the adoption will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements since the Company is a lessor for these charter-out contracts and the changes are fairly minor. If the proposed practical expedient mentioned above is adopted and elected, good and services embedded in the charter-out contract that qualify as non-lease components will be combined under a single lease component presentation. However, without the proposed practical expedient, the Company expects that it will continue to recognize the lease revenue component using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance. The components of the charter hire that are categorized as lease components will generally be a fixed rate per day with revenue recognized straight line over the lease contract. Other goods and services that are categorized as non-lease components will be recognized at either a point in time or over time based on the pattern of transfer of the underlying goods or services to our charterers.

The Company is continuing its assessment of other miscellaneous leases, which have lease terms greater than 12 months and the Company is the lessee and may identify additional impacts this guidance will have on the consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

NOTE 6: FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for interest bearing deposits and money market funds approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of these investments.

Restricted cash: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for interest bearing deposits approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of these investments.

Due from related parties, long-term: The carrying amount of due from related parties, long-term reported in the balance sheet approximates its fair value.

Borrowings: The book value has been adjusted to reflect the net presentation of deferred financing costs. The outstanding balance of the floating rate loans continues to approximate its fair value, excluding the effect of any deferred finance costs. The 2022 Senior Secured Notes, the 2022 Notes, the 2022 Logistics Senior Notes and one Navios Logistics’ loan are fixed rate borrowings and their fair value was determined based on quoted market prices.

Loan receivable from affiliate companies: The carrying amount of the floating rate loan approximates its fair value.

Long-term payable to affiliate companies: The carrying amount of the long-term payable approximates its fair value.

Investments in available-for-sale securities: The carrying amount of the investments in available-for-sale securities reported in the consolidated balance sheets represents unrealized gains and losses on these securities, which are reflected directly in equity unless an unrealized loss is considered “other-than-temporary”, in which case it is transferred to the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss)/income.

The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows:


	March 31, 2018						December 31, 2017
	Book Value			Fair Value			Book Value			Fair Value

Navios Logistics has issued a guarantee and indemnity letter that guarantees the performance by Petrolera San Antonio S.A. (a consolidated subsidiary) of all its obligations to Vitol S.A. up to $12,000. This guarantee expires on March 1, 2019.

Navios Logistics had a dispute with Vale regarding the termination date of a COA contract, which was under arbitration proceedings in New York. Related to this arbitration, Navios Logistics issued a letter of credit amounting to $2,900 and the total amount was collateralized by a cash deposit, which was presented as restricted cash in the accompanying balance sheets as of December 31, 2016. On February 10, 2017, the arbitration tribunal ruled in favor of Navios Logistics. Vale was ordered to pay Navios Logistics $21,500, compensating for all unpaid invoices, late payment of invoices, and legal fees incurred. An amount of $1,157 was recorded in the consolidated statements of operations under “Other income, net” as part of this compensation during the first quarter of 2017. The full amount was received in March 2017, and the collateralized cash amount of $2,900, was released.

On March 30, 2016, Navios Logisitics received written notice from Vale stating that Vale did not intend to perform the service contract entered into between CNSA and Vale on September 27, 2013, relating to the iron ore port facility in Nueva Palmira, Uruguay. Navios Logistics initiated arbitration proceedings in London on June 10, 2016 pursuant to the dispute resolution provisions of the service contract. On December 20, 2016, a London arbitration tribunal ruled that the Vale port contract remains in full force and effect. If Vale were to further repudiate or renounce the contract, we may elect to terminate the contract and then would be entitled to damages calculated by reference to guaranteed volumes and agreed tariffs for the remaining period of the contract.

The Company, in the normal course of business, entered into contracts to time charter-in vessels for various periods through 2030.

As of March 31, 2018, Navios Holdings had not exercised any part of that option.

Sale of vessels and sale of rights to Navios Partners: Upon the sale of vessels to Navios Partners, Navios Holdings recognizes the gain immediately in earnings only to the extent of the interest in Navios Partners owned by third parties and defers recognition of the gain to the extent of its own ownership interest in Navios Partners (the “deferred gain”).

The recognition of the deferred gain is accelerated in the event that (i) the vessel is subsequently sold or otherwise disposed of by Navios Partners or (ii) the Company’s ownership interest in Navios Partners is reduced. In connection with the public offerings of common units by Navios Partners, a pro rata portion of the deferred gain is released to income upon dilution of the Company’s ownership interest in Navios Partners.

NOTE 12: LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

Loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss attributable to Navios Holdings common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of Navios Holdings outstanding during the periods presented. Net (loss)/income attributable to Navios Holdings common stockholders is calculated by adding to (if a discount) or deducting from (if a premium) net (loss)/ income attributable to Navios Holdings common stockholders the difference between the fair value of the consideration paid upon redemption and the carrying value of the preferred stock, including the unamortized issuance costs of the preferred stock, and the amount of any undeclared dividend cancelled.

For the three month period ended March 31, 2018, 2,799,163 potential common shares and 3,499,000 potential shares of convertible preferred stock have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e. those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) and are therefore excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share.

For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, 5,667,735 potential common shares and 5,935,000 potential shares of convertible preferred stock have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e. those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) and are therefore excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share.
