Recent Developments

2022 Senior Secured Notes

Navios Holdings has agreed to a form of Eighth Supplemental Indenture with bondholders holding a majority in aggregate principal amount (the “June 2021 Consenting Noteholders”) of our 11.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2022 (the “2022 Senior Secured Notes”). The June 2021 Consenting Noteholders are delivering consents to the Eighth Supplemental Indenture via DTC, and the Company intends to execute the Eighth Supplemental Indenture immediately once DTC is able to confirm that the requisite consents have been received.

Upon execution, the Eighth Supplemental Indenture eliminates the Company’s obligation to make a springing maturity offer for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes upon the pro rata redemption, at par, of $100.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes (the “Redemption”). The Redemption will be funded through (i) the sale of a vessel currently pledged as collateral in respect of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes and (ii) the borrowing of approximately $75.0 million from an affiliate of N Shipmanagement Acquisition Corp. (the “June 2021 Ship Management Loan”).

The Eighth Supplemental Indenture also (i) clarifies that all past dividends paid in respect of equity pledged as collateral for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes and any future dividends paid in respect of equity pledged as collateral (other than equity of Navios South American Logistics Inc. (“Navios Logistics”)) can be used by the Company for general corporate purposes, absent a Default or Event of Default; (ii) provides that future dividends paid in respect of equity of Navios Logistics pledged as collateral for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes may be used only to redeem or repurchase 2022 Senior Secured Notes; (iii) states that the Company may, subject to the occurrence of the Redemption, agree to the cancellation of amounts it owes to Navios Logistics under that certain loan agreement dated as of April 25, 2019 (as amended) (the “Grimaud Loan”) in lieu of the receipt of pro rata cash dividends from Navios Logistics (the “Cancellation”); (iv) permits the lender under the June 2021 Ship Management Loan to take a second lien on the pledged share collateral (which pledged share collateral secures the 2022 Senior Secured Notes on a first lien basis); and (v) provides that the 2022 Senior Secured Notes will be provided with a first lien security interest in the 7.375% Ship Mortgage Notes that secure the Grimaud Loan as of the date of the Eighth Supplemental Indenture no later than fifteen calendar days following the Cancellation.

Fleet Update

The Company agreed to sell to unrelated third parties: (i) the Navios Astra, a 2006-built Ultra-Handymax vessel of 53,468 dwt, for a sale price of $6.6 million (completed in February 2021); and (ii) the Navios Serenity, a 2011-built Handysize vessel of 34,690 dwt for a sale price of $10.4 million (expected to be completed in June 2021).

The Company agreed to sell to a related party: (i) the Navios Centaurus, a 2012-built Panamax vessel of 81,472 dwt, and the Navios Avior, a 2012-built Panamax vessel of 81,355 dwt, for a sale price of $39.3 million, including working capital adjustments (completed in March 2021); and (ii) a 2011-built Capesize vessel previously chartered-in by Navios Holdings, for which the net sale proceeds were $8.5 million.

Navios Holdings has the right of first refusal and profit sharing on sale of vessel.

Many of Navios Holdings’ current long-term charter-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.

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 at fixed or floating rates 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 may trade additional vessels taken in on shorter term charters of less than 12 months duration as well as voyage charters and COAs.

Generally, these charters, when available, may have the effect of generating Time Charter Equivalent (“TCE”) that are higher than spot employment. The average daily charter-in vessel cost for the Navios Holdings long-term charter-in fleet (excluding Kleimar controlled fleet mainly used for servicing contracts of affreightment) was $15,032 per day for the three month period ended March 31, 2021. The average long-term charter-in hire rate per vessel was included in the amount of long-term hire included elsewhere in this Report and 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 at favorable prices relative to the then-current market. Navios Holdings holds 10 purchase options to acquire charter- in vessels, and five purchase options to acquire vessels under bareboat contracts.

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 (through the fixed cost contracts provided by NSM) of its owned vessels 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 believes that it owns and operates the largest independent bulk transfer and storage port terminal complex in Uruguay based on throughputs, its Dry Port Terminal, and one of the largest independent storage facilities for crude and petroleum products in Paraguay based on storage capacity, its Liquid Port Terminal. Navios Logistics also believes that it is also one of the largest owners and operators of a diverse and versatile fleet of dry and wet barges, pushboats and oil tankers in the Hidrovia Region. Navios Logistics’ port, barge and cabotage operations serve the needs of a diverse range of industries, including mineral and grain commodity providers as well as users of refined petroleum products. Navios Logistics has been able to combine its ports, barges, pushboats and tankers to offer an integrated logistics solution to its customers. Navios Logistics has customers that have used or use both its dry port and dry barge services such as Vale International S.A. (“Vale”), Vetorial Mineracao S.A. (“Vetorial”), Alicorp and other customers that use its liquid port and liquid barge or cabotage services such as Vitol and Petrosur. Navios Logistics believes that the scale and breadth of its integrated service offerings, together with the strategic location and unique capabilities of its infrastructure assets position it well to capitalize on the continued growth expected in iron ore, grain and liquid trade flows within the Hidrovia Region. 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. In addition, our business could be materially and adversely affected by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Please read “Risk Factors” included in Navios Holdings’ Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC for a discussion of certain risks inherent in its business.

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-term charter-in vessels and currently controls approximately 4.8 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 major repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades, drydocking 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 unforeseen circumstances.

 

   

Fleet utilization: Fleet utilization is the percentage of time that Navios Holdings’ vessels were available for generating revenue, and is determined by dividing the number of operating days during a relevant period by the number of available days during that period.

 

   

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 present the actual daily earnings generated by vessels on various types of contracts for the number of available days of the fleet.

 

   

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;

 

   

the level of period charter rates;

 

   

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 currently 8.3 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 and freight. The Logistics Business segment consists of port terminal business, barge business and cabotage business. Navios Holdings measures segment performance based on net income attributable to Navios Holdings’ common stockholders.

For further segment information, please see Note 12 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this Report.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2021, there were 434 fewer available days as compared to the same period during 2020 due to (i) a decrease in charter-in available days by 306 days due to the redelivery to owners of one and two charter-in vessels in 2021 and 2020, respectively, and the acquisition of two charter-in vessels in 2020; and (ii) an decrease in available days of owned and bareboat-in vessels by 128 days following the sale of one and eight of the Company’s vessels in 2021 and 2020, respectively, partially mitigated by the delivery of seven vessels in 2020.

The average TCE rate for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 was $14,404 per day, which was 103.4% or $7,322 per day higher than the rate achieved in the same period during 2020. This was primarily due to the improvement in the time charter and freight market.

Revenue: Revenue from Dry Bulk Vessel Operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 increased by $29.5 million, or 86.0%, to $63.7 million, as compared to $34.3 million for the same period during 2020. The increase in dry bulk revenue was mainly attributable to the improvement in time charter and freight market during the periods compared.

Revenue from the Logistics Business was $53.2 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $56.8 million for the same period in 2020. The decrease was mainly attributable to (i) a $4.6 million decrease in sales of products mainly due to the decrease in the Paraguayan liquid port’s volume of products sold; (ii) a $2.0 million decrease in revenue from the cabotage business mainly due to lower time charter rates due to market conditions and fewer operating days; and (iii) a $0.1 million decrease in revenue from the barge business, mainly due to a $6.1 million decrease in time charter revenues due to the expiration of certain legacy time charter contracts partially offset by a $6.0 million increase in CoA/voyage revenues, mainly due to higher CoA/voyage revenues of convoys previously under time charter contracts. The overall decrease was partially mitigated by a $3.1 million increase in revenue from the port terminal business, mainly due to higher volumes transshipped in the grain port terminal.

Time Charter, Voyage and Logistics Business Expenses: Time charter, voyage and logistics business expenses decreased by $8.3 million, or 17.8%, to $38.3 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $46.6 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021.

Time charter and voyage expenses from Dry Bulk Vessel Operations decreased by $4.1 million, or 14.6%, to $23.8 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $27.9 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020. This decrease was mainly attributable to a $5.0 million decrease in charter-in expenses; partially mitigated by (i) a $0.5 million increase in port and other voyage expenses; and (ii) a $0.4 million increase in fuel expenses.

Of the total expenses for the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, $14.5 million and $18.8 million, respectively, related to Navios Logistics. The decrease of $4.3 million in time charter, voyage and Logistics Business expenses related to Navios Logistics was mainly due to (i) a $4.8 million decrease in cost of products sold, mainly attributable to the decrease in the Paraguayan liquid port’s volume of products sold and (ii) a $0.2 million decrease in time charter and voyage expenses of the barge business, mainly due to lower charter-in expenses. This decrease was partially mitigated by a (i) a $0.6 million increase in time charter and voyage expenses of the cabotage business, mainly due to higher voyage expenses, mainly fuel, related to more spot voyages performed; and (ii) a $0.1 million increase in port terminal expenses of the port terminal business.

Direct Vessel Expenses: Direct vessel expenses increased by $1.2 million, or 4.8%, to $25.9 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $24.7 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020.

Direct Vessel Expenses from Dry Bulk Vessel Operations decreased by $0.2 million, or 1.5%, to $12.3 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $12.5 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020. This decrease was mainly attributable to a $0.4 million decrease in vessel operating expenses (management fees); partially mitigated by a $0.2 million increase in drydocking and special survey amortization

Of the total amounts for the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, $13.6 million and $12.2 million, respectively, related to Navios Logistics. The increase of $1.4 million was mainly due to a $1.5 million increase in direct vessel expenses of the barge business, mainly attributable to the increased utilization of our convoys to service the demand of the COA/voyage market; partially mitigated by a $0.1 million decrease in direct vessel expenses of the cabotage business.

General and administrative expenses decreased by $0.1 million to $6.8 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $7.0 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020. The decrease was mainly attributable a $0.1 million decrease in general and administrative expenses of Dry Bulk Vessel Operations. For each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 general and administrative expenses, under the Administrative Services Agreement, amounted $2.3 million.

Depreciation and Amortization: For the three month period ended March 31, 2021, depreciation and amortization decreased by $1.8 million to $16.3 million as compared to $18.1 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020.

Depreciation expenses related to Dry Bulk Vessel Operations decreased by $2.0 million, or 19.7%, to $8.1 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $10.1 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020. This decrease was primarily due to (i) the sale of seven of the Company’s vessels in 2020; and (ii) the impact of impairment loss recognized in the fourth quarter of 2020 for two of the Company’s vessels; partially mitigated by the acquisition of four vessels in 2020. Amortization expenses related to dry bulk operations remained stable at $0.7 million for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

Of the total amount of depreciation and amortization for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, $7.5 million and $7.3 million, respectively, related to Navios Logistics. The increase of $0.2 million in depreciation and amortization related to Navios Logistics was mainly due to (i) a $0.2 million increase in depreciation and amortization of the port terminal business, mainly due to increased depreciation expense of tangible assets; and (ii) a $0.1 million increase in depreciation and amortization of the barge business, mainly due to increased amortization of dry dock expenses. Depreciation and amortization in the cabotage business amounted to $0.9 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, unchanged compared to the same period in 2020.

Interest Expense and Finance Cost, Net: Interest expense and finance cost, net increased by $4.6 million, or 14.4%, to $36.2 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $31.6 million in the same period in 2020. This increase was mainly due to a $5.1 million increase in interest expense and finance cost, net of the Logistics Business, mainly due to the higher weighted average interest rate of Navios Logistics due to the issuance of the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes; partially mitigated by a $0.5 million decrease in interest expenses and finance cost, net of the Dry Bulk Vessel Operations, mainly due to repayments of credit facilities.

Impairment Loss/ Loss on Sale of Vessels, Net: During the three month period ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized an impairment loss/loss on sale of vessels of $20.5 million relating to the sale of Navios Centaurus, Navios Avior and Navios Serenity. During the three month period ended March 31, 2020, the Company recognized an impairment loss/loss on sale of vessels of $11.2 million relating to the sale of Navios Kypros and Navios Star.

Gain on Bond Extinguishment, Net: During the three month period ended March 31, 2021, no repurchase was effected. During the three month period ended March 31, 2020, the Company repurchased $20.8 million of the 2022 Notes (as defined herein) in open market transactions for a cash consideration of $9.4 million resulting in a gain on bond extinguishment of $11.2 million, net of deferred fees written-off.

 

13


Other Expense, Net: Other expenses, net decreased by $1.3 million, to $0.2 million net expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2020, as compared to $1.6 million for the same period in 2020. This decrease was due to a $2.1 million decrease in other expense, net of the Logistics Business; partially mitigated by a $0.8 million increase in other expense, net of the Drybulk Business.

The increase in other expense, net of Dry Bulk Vessel Operations was mainly due to (i) $0.8 million increase in miscellaneous voyage expenses; (ii) a $0.1 million increase in allowance for credit losses; and (iii) a $0.1 million decrease in miscellaneous other income, net; partially mitigated by a $0.2 million decrease in taxes other than income taxes.

The decrease in other expense, net of the Logistics Business was mainly due to (i) a $1.0 million decrease in other expense, net in the port terminal business for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, mainly due to an insurance claim settlement and gain from foreign exchange differences; (ii) a $0.7 million decrease in other expense, net in the barge business, mainly attributable to gain foreign differences; and (iii) a $0.4 million decrease in other expense, net in the cabotage business, mainly due to taxes other than income taxes.

Impairment of Loan Receivable from Affiliate Company: Impairment of loan receivable from Navios Europe II amounting to $6.1 million was recognized during the three month period ended March 31, 2020.

Equity in Net Earnings/(Losses) of Affiliate Companies: Equity in net earnings/(losses) of affiliate companies increased by $33.9 million, to $27.7 million equity in net earnings for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $6.1 million equity in net losses for the same period in 2020, mainly due to (i) a $30.4 million increase in equity method income from Navios Partners; (ii) a $6.7 million other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) loss relating to the investment in Navios Europe II recognized in the first quarter 2020; and (iii) a $0.4 million increase in equity method income from Navios Containers; partially mitigated by a $3.6 million decrease in equity method income from Navios Acquisition.

Income Tax Benefit: Income tax benefit for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 increased by $0.8 million to $0.8 million benefit for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to a $0 million benefit for the same period in 2020. The total change in income tax was attributable to Navios Logistics due to a $0.8 million increase in income tax benefit of the barge business, mainly due to the impact of local foreign exchange differences for the three month period ended March 31, 2021.

Net Income Attributable to the Noncontrolling Interest: Net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest decreased by $1.4 million to $1.2 million net income for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $2.5 million net income for the same period in 2020. This decrease was mainly attributable to a $1.4 million decrease in net income of the Logistics Business for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020.

Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries

Our non-guarantor subsidiaries accounted for $53.2 million, or 45.5%, of our revenue for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, $0.3 million net income of our total net income for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, $22.1 million of our Adjusted EBITDA for the three month periods ended March 31, 2021, $1,003.6 million, or 52.9%, of our total assets and $619.5 million, or 32.1%, of our total liabilities, in each case, for the three month period ended as of March 31, 2021.

Our non-guarantor subsidiaries accounted for $999.8 million, or 50.7%, of our total assets and $618.8 million, or 30.9%, of our total liabilities, in each case, as of December 31, 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Navios Holdings has historically financed its capital requirements with cash flows from operations, issuances of debt securities and borrowings under bank credit facilities. Main uses of funds have been refinancings of outstanding debt, capital expenditures for the acquisition of new vessels, new construction and upgrades at the port terminals, and expenditures incurred in connection with ensuring that the owned vessels comply with international and regulatory standards. 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 available funds to refinance or repurchase its debt 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 (which may be below par) and subject to Navios Holdings cash requirements for other purposes, compliance with the covenants under Navios Holdings’ debt agreements, and other factors management deems relevant. In

addition, we regularly review options for refinancing our outstanding indebtedness and opportunities for acquisition of businesses and additional vessels, development of new facilities and infrastructure, joint ventures and other corporate transactions that may be material to us. Generally, our sources of funds may be from cash flows from operations, long-term borrowings and other debt or equity financings, proceeds from asset sales and proceeds from sale of our stake in our 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. See “Working Capital Position” and “Long-Term Debt Obligations and Credit Arrangements” for further discussion of Navios Holdings’ working capital position.

In determining net cash used in operating activities, net income is adjusted for the effects of certain non-cash items as discussed below.

The aggregate adjustments to reconcile net income to net cash used in operating activities was $13.7 million gain for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, which consisted mainly of the following adjustments: (i) $20.5 million impairment loss/loss on sale of vessels; (ii) $16.3 million depreciation and amortization; (iii) $2.6 million amortization of deferred drydock expenses; (iv) $2.5 million amortization of deferred financing costs; (v) $0.2 million relating to stock-based compensation; and (vi) $0.2 million allowance for credit losses. These adjustments were partially offset by (i) a $27.7 million movement in earnings in affiliate companies, net of dividends received; and (ii) a $0.8 million movement in income tax benefit.

The net cash outflow resulting from the change in operating assets and liabilities of $42.4 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 resulted from (i) a $28.7 million decrease in accrued expenses; (ii) $6.2 million payments for drydock and special survey costs; (iii) a $5.0 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets; (iv) a $4.7 million increase in accounts receivable, net; and (v) a $4.6 million decrease in operating lease liabilities. These were partially mitigated by (i) a $2.8 million increase in accounts payable; (ii) a $2.6 million increase in due to affiliate companies; (iii) a $0.9 million increase in deferred income; (iv) a $0.3 million decrease in due from affiliate companies; (v) a $0.1 million decrease in inventories; and (vi) a $0.1 million increase in other long term liabilities.

The aggregate adjustments to reconcile net loss to net cash used in operating activities was $36.0 million gain for the three month period ended March 31, 2020, which consisted mainly of the following adjustments: (i) $18.1 million depreciation and amortization; (ii) $11.2 million impairment loss/loss on sale of vessels; (iii) a $6.8 million movement in earnings in affiliates, net of dividends received; (iv) $6.1 million of impairment loss in relation to our loan receivable from Navios Europe II; (v) $2.5 million of amortization of deferred drydock expenses; (vi) $1.9 million of amortization of deferred finance fees; (vii) $0.4 million provision for losses on accounts receivable; and (viii) $0.3 million relating to share-based compensation. These adjustments were partially offset by $11.2 million gain on bond extinguishment.

The net cash inflow resulting from the change in operating assets and liabilities of $13.3 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 resulted from (i) a $18.5 million increase in payable to affiliate companies; (ii) a $9.6 million increase in accounts payable; (iii) a $5.7 decrease in receivable from affiliate companies; (iv) a $1.3 million decrease in inventories; (v) $0.6 million decrease in accounts receivables; and (vi) a $0.1 million increase in deferred income. These were partially mitigated by (i) $8.7 million decrease in accrued expenses; (ii) a $5.8 million payments for drydock and special survey costs; (iii) a $3.6 million increase in prepaid expenses and other assets; (iv) a $2.9 million decrease in operating lease liabilities; (v) a $1.3 million decrease in accrued interest payable to affiliate companies; (vi) and a $0.2 million decrease in other long term liabilities.

Adjusted EBITDA: EBITDA represents net (loss)/income attributable to Navios Holdings’ common stockholders before interest and finance costs, depreciation and amortization and 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 financing costs and gains/(losses) on bond and debt extinguishment, net; (v) allowance for credit losses; (vi) earnings/(losses) in affiliate companies, net of dividends received; (vii) payments for drydock, special survey costs and other capitalized items; (viii) noncontrolling interest; (ix) gain/ (loss) on sale of assets; (x) unrealized (loss)/gain on derivatives; (xi) loss on sale and reclassification to earnings of available-for-sale securities; and (xii) impairment losses. 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 and meet working capital requirements. 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 month period ended March 31, 2021 was $54.6 million as compared to $(0.8) million for the same period of 2020. The $55.4 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to (i) a $33.9 million increase in equity in net earnings from affiliate companies; (ii) a $25.9 million increase in revenue; (iii) a $8.3 million decrease in time charter, voyage and logistics business expenses; (iv) a $6.1 million impairment loss of loan receivable from Navios Europe II recorded in the three month period ended March 31, 2020; (v) a $1.4 million decrease in net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest; and (vi) a $1.3 million decrease in other expense, net. This overall increase of $76.8 million was partially offset by (i) a $11.2 million decrease in gain on bond extinguishment, net; (ii) a $9.2 million increase in impairment losses on sale of vessels; and (iii) a $1.0 million increase in direct vessel expenses (excluding the amortization of deferred drydock, special survey costs and other capitalized items).

Long-Term Debt Obligations and Credit Arrangements

Secured Credit Facilities

As of March 31, 2021, the Company repaid $36.2 million of debt, being (i) the $11.1 million outstanding loan balance with Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment bank, (ii) the $10.7 million outstanding loan balance with Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment bank, (iii) the $9.9 million outstanding loan balance with Hamburg Commercial Bank AG and (iv) the $4.5 million outstanding loan balance with DVB Bank S.E.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had two secured credit facilities with one bank with a total outstanding balance of $32.4 million with maturities in June 2021. The facilities are denominated in U.S. dollars and bear interest based on LIBOR plus spread ranging of 3.00% per annum. 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 herein), the 2022 Notes (as defined herein) and the 2024 Notes (as defined herein). 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 affiliate companies, together, own less than 20% of the outstanding share capital of Navios Holdings.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all the applicable covenants under each of its credit facilities.

2022 Senior Secured Notes

On November 21, 2017, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Navios Maritime Finance II (US) Inc. (together with the Company, the “Co-Issuers”) issued $305.0 million of 11.25% Senior Notes due 2022, at a price of 97% (the “2022 Senior Secured Notes”).

The 2022 Senior Secured Notes are secured by a first priority lien on certain capital stock owned by certain of the subsidiary guarantors of the Company in each of Navios GP L.L.C., Navios Maritime Acquisition Corporation, Navios South American Logistics Inc. and Navios Partners (following the merger of Navios Containers with Navios Partners), as well as by the vessel Navios Azimuth. The 2022 Senior Secured Notes are unregistered and guaranteed by all of the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries, except for certain subsidiaries designated as unrestricted subsidiaries, including Navios Logistics.

The subsidiary guarantees are “full and unconditional”, except that the indenture provides for an individual subsidiary’s guarantee to be automatically released in certain customary circumstances, such as when a subsidiary is sold or all of the assets of the subsidiary are sold, the capital stock is sold, when the subsidiary is designated as an “unrestricted subsidiary” for purposes of the indenture, upon liquidation or dissolution of the subsidiary or upon legal or covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes.

The Co-Issuers have the option to redeem the 2022 Senior Secured Notes in whole or in part, at any time at par.

Upon occurrence of certain change of control events, the holders of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes may require the Co-Issuers to repurchase some or all of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes at 101% of their face amount. The 2022 Senior Secured Notes contain covenants which, among other things, limit the incurrence of additional indebtedness, issuance of certain preferred stock, the payment of dividends, redemption or repurchase of capital stock or making restricted payments and investments, creation of certain liens, transfer or sale of assets, entering in transactions with affiliate companies, merging or consolidating or selling all or substantially all of the Co-Issuers’ properties and assets and creation or designation of restricted subsidiaries. The indenture governing the 2022 Senior Secured Notes includes customary events of default. The Co-Issuers were in compliance with the covenants as of March 31, 2021.

Under the terms of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes, the Company had an obligation to make a springing maturity offer in September 2021 to repurchase those notes at par unless certain conditions relating to the refinancing of our 2022 Notes are met.

On October 1, 2020, the Company entered into (1) the Sixth Supplemental Indenture to amend the terms of the indenture and related pledge agreements governing the 2022 Senior Secured Notes following its receipt of consents from bondholders representing a majority in aggregate principal amount (the “Consenting Noteholders”) of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes and (2) a consent agreement with the Consenting Noteholders (“Consent Agreement”) whereby the Consenting Noteholders agreed, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions in the Consent Agreement, to provide their consents, as part of a consent solicitation to be made by the Company on or before the earlier of (i) 60 days following the consummation of a Qualified IPO (as defined in the Sixth Supplemental Indenture) of Navios Logistics or (ii) September 5, 2021, to the amendments contained in the form of supplemental indenture (“Form of Supermajority Supplemental Indenture”) which amendments require consent from 66 2/3% of the outstanding 2022 Senior Secured Notes affected.

The Sixth Supplemental Indenture, among other things, (i) clarifies that all past dividends paid in respect of equity pledged as collateral for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes and any future dividends paid in respect of equity pledged as collateral (other than equity of Navios Logistics) can be used by the Company for general corporate purposes, absent a Default or Event of Default, (ii) provides that future dividends paid in respect of equity of Navios Logistics pledged as collateral for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes may be used only to redeem or repurchase 2022 Senior Secured Notes (including, absent a Default or an Event of Default, at a discount to par), (iii) eliminates the Company’s obligation to make a springing maturity offer for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes; and (iv) states, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Company may agree to the cancellation of amounts it owes to Navios Logistics under that certain loan agreement dated as of April 25, 2019 (as amended) in lieu of the receipt of pro rata cash dividends from Navios Logistics. The Sixth Supplemental Indenture became effective upon its execution by the Company and the Trustee, but the amendments and waivers contained therein will become operative only upon the occurrence of a Qualified IPO of Navios Logistics.

The Form of Supermajority Supplemental Indenture would further amend the Indenture to permit the Company to use the net proceeds it receives from any sale of Navios Logistics equity in connection with or following a Qualified IPO of Navios Logistics to repurchase 2022 Senior Secured Notes at a discount to par in certain circumstances.

There can be no assurance that the Company will receive the additional consents necessary to cause the amendments contemplated by the Form of Supermajority Supplemental Indenture to become effective.

On November 17, 2020, the Company entered into the Seventh Supplemental Indenture to further amend the terms of the indenture governing the 2022 Senior Secured Notes, pursuant to which Wilmington Trust, National Association became the successor Trustee and successor Collateral Trustee in respect of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes.

The 2024 Notes are not guaranteed by any of Navios Holdings’ subsidiaries.

The indenture governing the 2024 Notes does not contain restrictive covenants but does include customary events of default.

Sale and Leaseback Agreements

In the first quarter of 2020, the Company entered into two sale and leaseback agreements of $68.0 million in total, with unrelated third parties for two Capesize vessels (the “Sale and Leaseback Agreements”). Navios Holdings has no purchase obligation to acquire the vessels at the end of the lease term, however, it is reasonably certain that respective purchase options will be exercised and under ASC 842-40, the transfer of the vessels was determined to be a failed sale. In accordance with ASC 842-40, the Company did not derecognize the respective vessels from its balance sheet and accounted for the amounts received under the Sale and Leaseback Agreements as a financial liability.

The Sale and Leaseback Agreements are repayable by 144 consecutive monthly payments of approximately $0.2 million each, commencing as of January 2020 and March 2020, respectively. As of March 31, 2021, the outstanding balance under the Sale and Leaseback Agreements of the two Capesize vessels was $61.5 million in total.

In addition, before August 1, 2022, the Logistics Co-Issuers may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes at a price equal to 110.750% of the principal amount of the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date with an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings so long as at least 50% of the originally issued aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes remains outstanding. Prior to August 1, 2022, the Logistics Co-Issuers may also redeem all or a part of the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to the sum of: (a) 100% of the principal amount of the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes to be redeemed; plus (b) the applicable “make-whole” premium described in the Indenture governing the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes, plus (c) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes to be redeemed, to (but excluding) the applicable redemption date, subject to the right of holders of notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on all the relevant interest payment date. The Logistics Co-Issuers may also redeem all, but not less than all, of the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, upon certain changes in law that would trigger the payment of withholding taxes. Furthermore, upon the occurrence of certain change of control events, the Logistics Co-Issuers may be required to offer to purchase 2025 Logistics Senior Notes from holders at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

The 2025 Logistics Senior Notes are senior secured obligations of the Logistics Co-Issuers and rank equal in right of payment to all of their existing and future senior indebtedness and senior in right of payment to all of their future subordinated indebtedness. The 2025 Logistics Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, by all of the Navios Logistics’ direct and indirect subsidiaries, other than the Logistics Co-Issuer and Grimaud. The 2025 Logistics Senior Notes are secured by (i) first priority ship mortgages on four tanker vessels servicing the Navios Logistics’ cabotage business (the (1) Elena H, (2) Makenita H, (3) Sara H and (4) He Man H) owned by certain subsidiary guarantors (such guarantors, the “Mortgaged Vessel Guarantors”) and related assignments of earnings and insurance together with a first priority lien on the capital stock of each Mortgaged Vessel Guarantor; and (ii) an assignment by way of security of the Vale Port Contract (collectively, the “Collateral”). The 2025 Logistics Senior Notes will be effectively senior to all existing and future obligations of the subsidiary guarantors that own Collateral to the extent of the value of the Collateral but effectively junior to any existing and future secured obligations of the Logistics Co-Issuers and the subsidiary guarantors that are secured by assets other than the Collateral to the extent of the value of any assets securing such other obligations. The indenture governing the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes contains restrictive covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of the Logistics Co-Issuers and their subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends and make distributions on common and preferred stock, make other restricted payments, make investments, incur liens, consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of their assets and enter into certain transactions with affiliate companies, in each case, subject to exclusions, and other customary covenants. The indenture governing the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes also contains customary events of default.

The Logistics Co-Issuers were in compliance with the covenants as of March 31, 2021.

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, deferred finance costs associated with the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes amounted to $18.6 million and $19.4 million, respectively. Interest expense associated with the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes amounted to $13.3 million and nil for the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Navios Logistics Other Long-term Loans and Notes Payable

In December 2020, Navios Logistics entered into a $13.5 million seller’s credit agreement for the construction of six liquid barges to be made available by way of credit in six equal tranches. Each drawdown is repayable in 20 quarterly installments starting from the delivery of each barge. The seller’s credit for the construction of the six liquid barges bears interest at a fixed rate of 8.5%. As of March 31, 2021, Navios Logistics had drawn the total available amount and the outstanding balance was $12.7 million. Interest expense associated with the seller’s credit agreement for the construction of six liquid barges amounted to $0.3 million and nil for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

In the fourth quarter of 2020, Navios Logistics entered into a purchase agreement with an unrelated third party for the acquisition of three pushboats and 18 tank barges (“the Navios Logistics’ 2020 Fleet”). The acquisition was completed on March 22, 2021, and consequently, the Company entered into a $15.0 million seller’s credit agreement for the acquisition of the Navios Logistics’ 2020 Fleet. The seller’s credit agreement bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.0% per annum and is payable in three equal annual installments of $5.0 million. Interest expense associated with the seller’s credit agreement for the acquisition of the Navios Logistics’ 2020 Fleet amounted to less than $0 million and nil for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

As of March 31, 2021, Navios Logistics had long-term loans and notes payable, with a total outstanding balance of $72.0 million, including the two above mentioned financings. The purpose of the facilities was to finance the construction of its dry port terminal, the acquisition of vessels, or for general corporate purposes. The facilities are mainly denominated in U.S. dollars and bear interest based on LIBOR plus spread ranging from 3.15% to 3.25% per annum. The facilities are repayable in installments and have maturities ranging from August 2021 to November 2025. See also the maturity table included below. See also “Contractual Obligations”.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2021, the Company in relation to its secured credit facilities paid, $8.1 million related to scheduled repayment installments and $36.2 million related to the prepayment of four of Navios Holdings’ credit facilities. The annualized weighted average interest rates of the Company’s total borrowings for the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were 9.35% and 7.61%, respectively.

The maturity table below reflects the principal payments for the next five years and thereafter of all borrowings of Navios Holdings (including Navios Logistics) outstanding as of March 31, 2021, based on the repayment schedules of the respective loan facilities and the outstanding amount due under the debt securities.

Working Capital Position and bond maturities

As of March 31, 2021, Navios Holdings’ current assets totaled $150.8 million, while current liabilities excluding operating lease liabilities, current portion totaled $999.0 million, resulting in a negative working capital position of $848.2 million, primarily related to the classification as current of the Company’s $305.0 million of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes, $476.8 million of the 2022 Notes and bank debt maturities. Under the terms of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes, Navios Holdings has an obligation to make a springing maturity offer in September 2021 to all holders of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes to repurchase those outstanding 2022 Senior Secured Notes at par unless certain conditions relating to the refinancing of its 2022 Notes are met. As of March 31, 2021, the 2022 Notes have an outstanding amount of $476.8 million maturing in January 2022.

In October 2020, Navios Holdings entered into a supplemental indenture amending the indenture of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes (the “Sixth Supplemental Indenture” — see also Note 6 included elsewhere in this Report) which, among other things, eliminates Navios Holdings’ obligation to make a springing maturity offer in respect of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes, subject to the occurrence of a Qualified IPO (as defined in the Sixth Supplemental Indenture) of Navios Logistics. Navios Holdings has agreed to a form of Eighth Supplemental Indenture with the June 2021 Consenting Noteholders of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes.

Upon execution, the Eighth Supplemental Indenture eliminates the Company’s obligation to make a springing maturity offer for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes upon the pro rata redemption, at par, of $100.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes. The Redemption will be funded through (i) the sale of a vessel currently pledged as collateral in respect of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes and (ii) the borrowing of approximately $75.0 million from an affiliate of N Shipmanagement Acquisition Corp. Please also refer to “Eighth Supplemental Indenture” in the section “Recent Developments” included in this Report.

Although Navios Holdings is currently attempting to address these upcoming maturities and create additional liquidity to fund working capital requirements through the sale of assets, refinancing plans and a Qualified IPO of Navios Logistics, there can be no assurance Navios Holdings will be successful in such attempts or that any such attempts will be consummated on terms satisfactory to the Company, or at all. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the 12- month period from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements. In the meantime, Navios Holdings’ internal forecasts and projections indicate that Navios Holdings will generate sufficient cash to make the required principal and interest payments on its borrowings (excluding the above upcoming maturity payments) and provide for the normal working capital requirements of the business for a period of at least 12 months from the date of issuance of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

As of March 31, 2021, the total amount of $7.5 million, including expenses and interest, is presented within the caption “Other long-term assets”.

Navios Logistics

As of March 31, 2021, Navios Logistics completed the construction of six liquid barges. As of March 31, 2021, a total of $19.5 million was included under “Vessels, port terminals and other fixed assets, net” in our interim condensed consolidated statement of financial position.

During the first quarter of 2021, Navios Logistics completed the construction of two new tanks in its liquid port terminal. As of March 31, 2021, a total of $1.8 million had been transferred to “Vessels, port terminals and other fixed assets, net” in our interim condensed consolidated statement of financial position.

Since 2018, Navios Logistics acquired approximately 6.6 hectares of undeveloped land located in the Port Murtinho region, Brazil and on March 24, 2021, Navios Logistics acquired 2.3 additional hectares. Navios Logistics plans to develop this land for our port operations. As of March 31, 2021, Navios Logistics had paid $2.2 million for the land acquisition and capitalized expenses for the development of its port operations.

 

24


In the fourth quarter of 2020, Navios Logistics signed a purchase agreement with third parties for the acquisition of the Navios Logistics’ 2020 Fleet, for a purchase price of $30.0 million. The acquisition was completed on March 22, 2021. As of March 31, 2021, the total amount included in “Vessels, port terminals and other fixed assets, net” was $31.9 million for the acquisition of the Navios Logistics’ 2020 Fleet.

As of March 31, 2021, Navios Logistics had paid $2.7 million for the construction of a crane in its grain port terminal.

Dividend Policy

In November 2015, 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, net

Concentration of credit risk with respect to accounts receivables, net is limited due to Navios Holdings’ large number of customers, who are internationally dispersed and have a variety of end markets in which they sell. Due to these factors, management believes that no additional credit risk beyond amounts provided for collection losses is inherent in Navios Holdings’ trade receivables. For the three month period ended March 31, 2021, two customers accounted for 12.5% and 12.1%, respectively, of the Company’s revenue, who are the same customers who accounted for more than 10% of the Company’s revenue for the three month period ended March 31, 2020.

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 time charter for many different reasons, including if the customer is unable or unwilling to make charter hire or other payments to us because of a deterioration in its financial condition, disagreements with us or if the charterer exercises certain termination rights or otherwise. Our customers may terminate a charter 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 periods of off-hire, or we default under the charter. The customer may terminate the charter because the vessel has been subject to seizure for more than a specified number of days. Charterers may also go bankrupt or fail to perform their obligations under the contracts, they may delay payments or suspend payments altogether, they may terminate the contracts prior to the agreed-upon expiration date or they may attempt to renegotiate the terms of the contracts.

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.

 

25


Effects of Inflation

Navios Holdings does not consider inflation to be a significant risk to the cost of doing business in the foreseeable future. In addition, the Company considered various factors in assessing the impact of Argentina’s highly inflationary economy on Navios Logistics, among which, the sales, the financing arrangements, the working capital, the employee salaries and taxes. The Company does not consider inflation to be a significant risk factor to the cost of doing business in the foreseeable future as the functional currency of the Company’s Argentinian subsidiary is the U.S. dollar. In addition, the day-to-day operations of the Company’s Argentinian subsidiary are dependent on the economic environment of the Company’s U.S. dollar currency. As a result, the Company concluded that the determination that the Argentine economy is highly inflationary did not have a material impact on Navios Logistics’ financial statements and as such, did not result in the remeasurement of its financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2021, Navios Holdings was contingently liable for letters of guarantee and letters of credit amounting to $10,000 issued by various banks in favor of various organizations and the total amount was collateralized by cash deposits, which were included as a component of restricted cash.

Navios Logistics has issued a guarantee and indemnity letter that guarantees the performance by Petrolera San Antonio S.A. (a consolidated subsidiary of Navios Logistics) of all its obligations to Vitol S.A. up to $12.0 million. This guarantee expires on March 1, 2022.

On July 22, 2016, Navios Logistics guaranteed the compliance of certain obligations related to Edolmix S.A. and Energías Renovables del Sur S.A. (entities wholly owned by Navios Logistics) under their respective direct user agreements with the Free Zone of Nueva Palmira, for the amounts of $0.8 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

In September 2020, Navios Logistics agreed to a settlement regarding a storage and transshipment contract in the grain port terminal for a total amount of $4.1 million, which will be collected in three equal installments of $1.4 million on June 1, 2021, 2022 and 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2020, a gain of $4.1 million was included within the caption “Other income” in the consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss)/income.

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.

Omnibus Agreements: Navios Holdings has entered into an omnibus agreement with Navios Partners (the “Partners Omnibus Agreement”) in connection with the closing of Navios Partners’ IPO governing, among other things, when Navios Holdings and Navios Partners may compete against each other as well as rights of first offer on certain dry bulk carriers. Pursuant to the Partners Omnibus Agreement, Navios Partners generally agreed not to acquire or own Panamax or Capesize dry bulk carriers under time charters of three or more years without the consent of an independent committee of Navios Partners. In addition, Navios Holdings has agreed to offer to Navios Partners the opportunity to purchase vessels from Navios Holdings when such vessels are fixed under time charters of three or more years.

Navios Holdings entered into an omnibus agreement with Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners (the “Acquisition Omnibus Agreement”) in connection with the closing of Navios Acquisition’s initial vessel acquisition, pursuant to which, among other things, Navios Holdings and Navios Partners agreed not to acquire, charter-in or own liquid shipment vessels, except for containership vessels and vessels that are primarily employed in operations in South America, without the consent of an independent committee of Navios Acquisition. In addition, Navios Acquisition, under the Acquisition Omnibus Agreement, agreed to cause its subsidiaries not to acquire, own, operate or charter dry bulk carriers subject to specific exceptions. Under the Acquisition Omnibus Agreement, Navios Acquisition and its subsidiaries granted to Navios Holdings and Navios Partners, a right of first offer on any proposed sale, transfer or other disposition of any of its dry bulk carriers and related charters owned or acquired by Navios Acquisition. Likewise, Navios Holdings and Navios Partners agreed to grant a similar right of first offer to Navios Acquisition for any liquid shipment vessels it might own. These rights of first offer will not apply to a (i) sale, transfer or other disposition of vessels between any affiliated subsidiaries, or pursuant to the terms of any charter or other agreement with a counterparty, or (ii) merger with or into, or sale of substantially all of the assets to, an unaffiliated third party.

Navios Holdings entered into an omnibus agreement with Navios Midstream, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners in connection with the Navios Midstream IPO, pursuant to which Navios Acquisition, Navios Holdings, Navios Partners and their controlled affiliate companies generally have agreed not to acquire or own any VLCCs, crude oil tankers, refined petroleum product tankers, LPG tankers or chemical tankers under time charters of five or more years without the consent of Navios Midstream.

The option shall expire on November 18, 2024. The purchase price for the acquisition for all or part of the option interest shall be an amount equal to its fair market value. As of March 31, 2021, 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 recognized the gain immediately in earnings only to the extent of the interest in Navios Partners owned by third parties and deferred recognition of the gain to the extent of its own ownership interest in Navios Partners (the “deferred gain”). Subsequently, the deferred gain was amortized to income over the remaining useful life of the vessel. The recognition of the deferred gain was accelerated in the event that (i) the vessel was subsequently sold or otherwise disposed of by Navios Partners or (ii) the Company’s ownership interest in Navios Partners was reduced. In connection with the public offerings of common units by Navios Partners and the sale of Navios Partners general partnership interest effected on August 30, 2019, a pro rata portion of the deferred gain was released to income upon dilution of the Company’s ownership interest in Navios Partners. As of January 1, 2020, the unamortized deferred gain of $6.3 million was recorded as other adjustments within accumulated deficit.

Balance due from Navios Europe II: Navios Holdings, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners had made available to Navios Europe II revolving loans of up to $43.5 million to fund the Navios Revolving Loans II. In March 2017, the availability under the Navios Revolving Loans II was increased by $14.0 million (see Note 14 included elsewhere in this Report).

On April 21, 2020, Navios Europe II agreed with the lender to fully release the liabilities under the Junior Loan II for $5.0 million. Navios Europe II owned seven containership vessels and seven drybulk vessels.

On May 14, 2020, an agreement was reached to liquidate Navios Europe II before its original expiration date. The transaction was completed on June 29, 2020.

As a result of this liquidation, Navios Holdings received the total outstanding balance due from Navios Europe II, representing the Navios Revolving Loans II, the Navios Term Loans II and accrued interest thereof directly owed to Navios Holdings, previously presented within the captions “Due from affiliate companies” and “Loans receivable from affiliate companies” and acquired two Panamax vessels of Navios Europe II.

The Navios Revolving Loans II and the Navios Term Loans II earned interest and an annual preferred return, respectively, at 1,800 basis points per annum, on a quarterly compounding basis and were repaid from free cash flow (as defined in the loan agreement) to the fullest extent possible at the end of each quarter. There were no covenant requirements or stated maturity dates.

The decline in the fair value of the investment during the first quarter of 2020 was considered as other-than-temporary and, therefore, a loss of $6.1 million was recognized and included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss)/income for the three month period ended March 31, 2020, within the caption “Impairment of loan receivable from affiliate company”. The fair value was determined based on the liquidation value of Navios Europe II, including the individual fair values assigned to the assets and liabilities of Navios Europe II.

Secured credit facility with Navios Logistics: On April 25, 2019, Navios Holdings entered into a secured credit facility of up to $50.0 million with Navios Logistics on a secured basis to be used for general corporate purposes, including the repurchase of 2022 Notes. This credit facility is secured by any 2022 Notes purchased by Navios Holdings with these funds. The secured credit facility included an arrangement fee of $0.5 million and bears a fixed interest rate of 12.75% for the first year and 14.75% for the second year. The secured credit facility includes negative covenants substantially similar to the 2022 Notes and customary events of default. On December 2, 2019, Navios Holdings and Navios Logistics agreed to increase the secured credit facility by $20.0 million. Following

 

28


this amendment, as a result of the redemption of the 2022 Notes and Term Loan B Facility in July 2020 and the issuance of 2025 Notes, (a) the interest rate on the secured credit facility decreased to 10.0%, and (b) the maturity of the secured credit facility was extended to December 2024, and is repayable in four equal annual installments. Effective as of May 2021, and upon the release of certain collateral, the facility bears interest of 13.0% per annum. As of March 31, 2021, $70.0 million was drawn under this facility, of which $18.7 million was used to acquire the 2022 Notes from Navios Logistics and the remaining amount was used to repurchase 2022 Notes.

On June 24, 2020, Navios Logistics assigned its legal and beneficial right, title and interest in the credit facility to its wholly owned subsidiary Grimaud.

On June 25, 2020, Navios Holdings and Grimaud amended the secured credit facility with Navios Logistics to allow a portion of the total interest payable to be effected in common shares of Navios Holdings. On July 10, 2020, Navios Holdings issued 2,414,263 shares of common stock to Navios Logistics and paid Navios Logistics $2.3 million in satisfaction of the interest payable in respect of this facility.

NSM Loan: On August 29, 2019, Navios Holdings entered into a secured credit facility of $141.8 million (including post-closing adjustments) with Navios Shipmanagement Holdings Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of NSM. In general, the amount owed reflects the excess of (i) the liabilities of the ship management business (including liabilities for advances previously made by affiliate companies to the Company for ongoing operating costs, including technical management services, supplies, dry-docking and related expenses) other than liabilities the assumption of which forms part of the consideration for the Transaction over (ii) the short term assets of the ship management business. The Company’s obligations under the NSM Loan are guaranteed by substantially the same subsidiaries that guarantee the 2022 Notes and secured by assets of the Company that do not secure the Ship Mortgage Notes or the 2022 Senior Secured Notes. The credit facility is repayable over a five-year period; of the initial amount, $47.0 million was repayable in 2020 in equal quarterly installments, with the remaining principal repayment in equal quarterly installments over the following 48 months. In certain cases, principal payments can be deferred provided that no more than $20.0 million of deferral may be outstanding during the first or second year and $10.0 million outstanding in the third year. The loan agreement provides for interest at 5.0% annually, and 7.0% annually for deferred principal amounts. During December 2019, Navios Holdings repaid the amount of $13.4 million under the terms of this facility. During June 2020 and July 2020, Navios Holdings repaid the amount of $31.5 million and $18.5 million, respectively, under the terms of this facility.

As of March 31, 2021, the outstanding balance was $78.4 million (December 31, 2020: $78.4 million) and the accrued interest was $0.5 million (December 31, 2020: $0.5 million). Of the outstanding amount and accrued interest, $24.4 million (December 31, 2020: $10.3 million) is included within the caption “Current portion of loans payable to affiliate companies”. During May 2021, Navios Holdings repaid the amount of $21.7 million, under the terms of this facility.

$50.0 million NSM Loan: In June 2020, the Company entered into a secured loan agreement with Navios Shipmanagement Holdings Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of NSM for a loan of up to $50.0 million to be used for general corporate purposes. The terms and conditions of the secured loan agreement were approved by a Special Committee of the Board of Directors comprised of independent directors. The loan agreement will be repayable in up to 18 equal consecutive quarterly installments. Principal payments that fall due during the first year following the initial drawdown may be deferred, at the Company’s election, in whole or in part. The loan agreement provides for interest at a rate of 5.0% annually (and 7.0% annually for deferred principal amounts).

As of March 31, 2021, the outstanding balance was $50.0 million (December 31, 2020: $50 million) and the accrued interest was $0.3 million (December 31, 2020: $0.3 million). Of the outstanding amount and accrued interest, $19.1 million is included within the caption “Current portion of loans payable to affiliate companies”. During May 2021, Navios Holdings repaid the amount of $10.3 million, under the terms of this facility.

The Company’s obligations under the $50.0 million NSM Loan are guaranteed by first priority security interests in a vessel, as well as pledge of certain First Priority Ship Mortgage Notes due 2022 owned by Navios Holdings and 40,587 common units in Navios Partners and second priority pledge in respect of 2022 Notes owned by Navios Holdings.

Navios Logistics’ Shareholders Agreement: On November 19, 2019, Navios Holdings entered into a shareholder agreement with Peers Business Inc. granting certain protections to minority shareholders in certain events.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks

Navios Holdings is exposed to certain risks related to interest rate, foreign currency and charter rate risks.

 

29


Interest Rate Risk

Debt Instruments — On March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, Navios Holdings had a total of $1,585.6 million and $1,612.7 million, respectively, of long-term indebtedness. All of the Company’s debt is U.S. dollar-denominated. The 2022 Senior Secured Notes, the 2022 Notes, the 2024 Notes, the NSM Loan, the $50.0 million NSM Loan, the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes and three Navios Logistics’ loans bear interest at a fixed rate; the remaining balance of Navios Holdings’ debt bears interest at a floating rate.

Changes in interest rates for our floating-rate loan facilities would affect their interest rate and related interest expense. As of March 31, 2021, the outstanding amount of the Company’s floating rate loan facilities was $138.2 million. A change in the LIBOR rate of 100 basis points would change interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 by $0.4 million. The interest rates on the 2022 Senior Secured Notes, the 2022 Notes, the 2024 Notes, the NSM Loan, the $50.0 million NSM Loan, the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes and three Navios Logistics’ loans are fixed and, therefore, changes in interest rates affect their fair value, which as of March 31, 2021 was $1,390.7 million, but do not affect their related interest expense.

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 23.2% 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, 2021 would change net income by $0.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021.

Charter Rate Risks

See “Charter Policy and Industry Outlook” for our approach and managing charter rate risk.

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, 2020.

Investments in Equity Securities

Navios Holdings evaluates its investments in Navios Acquisition, Navios Partners and Navios Containers (through its acquisition by Navios Partners on March 31, 2021) and evaluated its investment in Navios Europe II for 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 retain its investment in these companies for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value (see also Note 14 included elsewhere in this Report).

CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

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

 

NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Navios Maritime Holdings Inc. (“Navios Holdings” or the “Company”) (NYSE: NM) is a global seaborne shipping and logistics company focused on the transport and transshipment of dry bulk commodities, including iron ore, coal and grain.

(“Navios Partners”) (NYSE: NMM) is an international owner and operator of dry cargo vessels and is engaged in the seaborne transportation services of a wide range of dry cargo commodities including iron ore, coal, grain, fertilizer and also containers, chartering its vessels under medium to longer-term charters.

Navios Europe II was engaged in the marine transportation industry through the ownership of seven dry bulk and seven containership vessels. On April 21, 2020, Navios Europe II and the lenders agreed to fully release the liabilities under the Junior Loan II for $5,000. The structure was liquidated in June 2020 (Refer to Note 9).

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, 2020 filed on Form 20-F with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Going concern

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

As of March 31, 2021, Navios Holdings’ current assets totaled $150,775, while current liabilities excluding operating lease liabilities, current portion totaled $998,981, resulting in a negative working capital position of $848,206, primarily related to the classification as current of the Company’s $305,000 of the 11.25% Senior Secured Notes (the “2022 Senior Secured Notes”), $476,822 of the 7.375% First Priority Ship Mortgage Notes (the “2022 Notes”) and bank debt maturities. Under the terms of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes, Navios Holdings has an obligation to make a springing maturity offer in September 2021 to all holders of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes to repurchase those outstanding 2022 Senior Secured Notes at par unless certain conditions relating to the refinancing of its 2022 Notes are met. As of March 31, 2021, the 2022 Notes have an outstanding amount of $476,822 maturing in January 2022.

In October 2020, Navios Holdings entered into a supplemental indenture amending the indenture of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes (the “Sixth Supplemental Indenture” — see also Note 6) which, among other things, eliminates Navios Holdings’ obligation to make a springing maturity offer in respect of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes, subject to the occurrence of a Qualified IPO (as defined in the Sixth Supplemental Indenture) of Navios Logistics. Navios Holdings has agreed to a form of Eighth Supplemental Indenture with bondholders holding a majority in aggregate principal amount (the “June 2021 Consenting Noteholders”) of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes. Upon execution, the Eighth Supplemental Indenture eliminates the Company’s obligation to make a springing maturity offer for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes upon the pro rata redemption, at par, of $100,000 in aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes (the “Redemption”). The Redemption will be funded through (i) the sale of a vessel currently pledged as collateral in respect of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes and (ii) the borrowing of approximately $75,000 from an affiliate of N Shipmanagement Acquisition Corp. (the “June 2021 Ship Management Loan”). Please also refer to Note 16.

Although Navios Holdings is currently attempting to address these upcoming maturities and create additional liquidity to fund working capital requirements through the sale of assets, refinancing plans and a Qualified IPO of Navios Logistics, there can be no assurance Navios Holdings will be successful in such attempts or that any such attempts will be consummated on terms satisfactory to the Company, or at all. Therefore, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the 12- month period from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements. In the meantime, Navios Holdings’ internal forecasts and projections indicate that Navios Holdings will generate sufficient cash to make the required principal and interest payments on its borrowings (excluding the above upcoming maturity payments) and provide for the normal working capital requirements of the business for a period of at least 12 months from the date of issuance of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

 

(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.

CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

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

 

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 interim condensed consolidated financial statements are 100% owned, except for Navios Logistics, which is 63.8% owned by Navios Holdings, respectively.

Investments in Affiliate Companies: Affiliate companies 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 company at cost, and adjusts the carrying amount for its share of the earnings or losses of the affiliate company subsequent to the date of investment and reports the recognized earnings or losses in income. Dividends received from an affiliate company reduce the carrying amount of the investment. The Company recognizes gains and losses in earnings for the issuance of shares by its affiliate companies, provided that the issuance of shares qualifies as a sale of shares. When the Company’s share of losses in an affiliate company equals or exceeds its interest in the affiliate company, the Company does not recognize further losses, unless the Company has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the affiliate company.

Affiliate companies included in the financial statements accounted for under the equity method

In the interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Navios Holdings, the following entities are included as affiliate companies and are accounted for under the equity method for such periods: (i) Navios Partners and its subsidiaries (ownership interest as of March 31, 2021 was 12.6%); (ii) Navios Acquisition and its subsidiaries (economic interest as of March 31, 2021 was 29.5%); (iii) Navios Containers and its subsidiaries (ownership interest through Navios Partners’ Merger, as defined herein, in March 2021 was 3.9%); and (iv) Navios Europe II and its subsidiaries (economic interest through liquidation in June 2020 was 47.5%).

 

(c)

Revenue Recognition:

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. Revenues are recognized to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. 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.

Voyage revenues for the transportation of cargo are recognized ratably over the estimated relative transit time of each voyage. A voyage is deemed to commence when a vessel arrives at the loading port, as applicable under the contract, and is 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 are recognized ratably over the estimated relative transit time of each voyage. A voyage is deemed to commence upon the barge’s arrival at the loading port, as applicable under the contract, and is deemed to end upon the completion of discharge under the current voyage. The percentage of transit time is 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 is 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 is 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.

The Company recognizes 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 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.

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.

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.

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.

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

Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

Adoption of new accounting pronouncements:

In December 2019, FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740), which modifies ASC 740 to simplify the accounting for income taxes. It removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The amendments in ASU 2019-12 are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods therein. Early adoption of the standard is permitted, including adoption in interim or annual periods for which financial statements have not yet been issued. The adoption of this ASU on January 1, 2021 did not have a material impact on the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2018, FASB issued ASU 2018-14, “Compensation-Retirement Benefits-Defined Benefit Plans (Topic 715-20): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans”. This update modifies the disclosure requirements for defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement plans. ASU 2018-14 is effective for public business entities that are SEC filers beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2021, and earlier adoption is permitted. The adoption of this ASU on January 1, 2021 did not have a material impact on the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Secured Credit Facilities

As of March 31, 2021, the Company repaid $36,199 of debt, being (i) the $11,100 outstanding loan balance with Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment bank, (ii) the $10,650 outstanding loan balance with Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment bank, (iii) the $9,945 outstanding loan balance with Hamburg Commercial Bank AG and (iv) the $4,504 outstanding loan balance with DVB Bank S.E.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had two secured credit facilities with one bank with a total outstanding balance of $32,400 with maturities in June 2021. The facilities are denominated in U.S. dollars and bear interest based on LIBOR plus spread of 3.00% per annum. 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 herein), the 2022 Notes (as defined herein) and the 2024 Notes (as defined herein). 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 affiliate companies, together, own less than 20% of the outstanding share capital of Navios Holdings.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all the applicable covenants under each of its credit facilities.

2022 Senior Secured Notes

On November 21, 2017, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Navios Maritime Finance II (US) Inc. (together with the Company, the “Co-Issuers”) issued $305,000 of 11.25% Senior Notes due 2022, at a price of 97%.

The 2022 Senior Secured Notes are secured by a first priority lien on certain capital stock owned by certain of the subsidiary guarantors of the Company in each of Navios GP L.L.C., Navios Maritime Acquisition Corporation, Navios South American Logistics Inc. and Navios Partners (following the merger of Navios Containers with Navios Partners), as well as by the vessel Navios Azimuth. The 2022 Senior Secured Notes are unregistered and guaranteed by all of the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries, except for certain subsidiaries designated as unrestricted subsidiaries, including Navios Logistics.

The subsidiary guarantees are “full and unconditional”, except that the indenture provides for an individual subsidiary’s guarantee to be automatically released in certain customary circumstances, such as when a subsidiary is sold or all of the assets of the subsidiary are sold, the capital stock is sold, when the subsidiary is designated as an “unrestricted subsidiary” for purposes of the indenture, upon liquidation or dissolution of the subsidiary or upon legal or covenant defeasance or satisfaction and discharge of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes.

The Co-Issuers have the option to redeem the 2022 Senior Secured Notes in whole or in part, at any time at par.

Upon occurrence of certain change of control events, the holders of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes may require the Co-Issuers to repurchase some or all of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes at 101% of their face amount. The 2022 Senior Secured Notes contain covenants which, among other things, limit the incurrence of additional indebtedness, issuance of certain preferred stock, the payment of dividends, redemption or repurchase of capital stock or making restricted payments and investments, creation of certain liens, transfer or sale of assets, entering in transactions with affiliate companies, merging or consolidating or selling all or substantially all of the Co-Issuers’ properties and assets and creation or designation of restricted subsidiaries. The indenture governing the 2022 Senior Secured Notes includes customary events of default. The Co-Issuers were in compliance with the covenants as of March 31, 2021.

Under the terms of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes, the Company had an obligation to make a springing maturity offer in September 2021 to repurchase those notes at par unless certain conditions relating to the refinancing of our 2022 Notes are met.

On October 1, 2020, the Company entered into (1) the Sixth Supplemental Indenture to amend the terms of the indenture and related pledge agreements governing the 2022 Senior Secured Notes following its receipt of consents from bondholders representing a majority in aggregate principal amount (the “Consenting Noteholders”) of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes and (2) a consent agreement with the Consenting Noteholders (“Consent Agreement”) whereby the Consenting Noteholders agreed, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions in the Consent Agreement, to provide their consents, as part of a consent solicitation to be made by the Company on or before the earlier of (i) 60 days following the consummation of a Qualified IPO (as defined in the Sixth Supplemental Indenture) of Navios Logistics or (ii) September 5, 2021, to the amendments contained in the form of supplemental indenture (“Form of Supermajority Supplemental Indenture”) which amendments require consent from 66 2/3% of the outstanding 2022 Senior Secured Notes affected.

The Sixth Supplemental Indenture, among other things, (i) clarifies that all past dividends paid in respect of equity pledged as collateral for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes and any future dividends paid in respect of equity pledged as collateral (other than equity of Navios Logistics) can be used by the Company for general corporate purposes, absent a Default or Event of Default, (ii) provides that future dividends paid in respect of equity of Navios Logistics pledged as collateral for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes may be used only to redeem or repurchase 2022 Senior Secured Notes (including, absent a Default or an Event of Default, at a discount to par), (iii) eliminates the Company’s obligation to make a springing maturity offer for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes; and (iv) states, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Company may agree to the cancellation of amounts it owes to Navios Logistics under that certain loan agreement dated as of April 25, 2019 (as amended) (the “Grimaud Loan”) in lieu of the receipt of pro rata cash dividends from Navios Logistics. The Sixth Supplemental Indenture became effective upon its execution by the Company and the Trustee, but the amendments and waivers contained therein will become operative only upon the occurrence of a Qualified IPO of Navios Logistics.

The Form of Supermajority Supplemental Indenture would further amend the Indenture to permit the Company to use the net proceeds it receives from any sale of Navios Logistics equity in connection with or following a Qualified IPO of Navios Logistics to repurchase 2022 Senior Secured Notes at a discount to par in certain circumstances.

There can be no assurance that the Company will receive the additional consents necessary to cause the amendments contemplated by the Form of Supermajority Supplemental Indenture to become effective.

On November 17, 2020, the Company entered into the Seventh Supplemental Indenture to further amend the terms of the indenture governing the 2022 Senior Secured Notes, pursuant to which Wilmington Trust, National Association became the successor Trustee and successor Collateral Trustee in respect of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes.

Navios Holdings has agreed to a form of Eighth Supplemental Indenture with the June 2021 Consenting Noteholders of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes. Please refer to Note 16.

The net proceeds from the offering of the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes were used to satisfy and discharge the indenture governing the 2022 Logistics Senior Notes to repay all amounts outstanding under the Navios Logistics’ Term Loan B Facility and to pay certain fees and expenses related to the offering, with the balance to be used for general corporate purposes.

On or after August 1, 2022, the Logistics Co-Issuers may redeem some or all of the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes at the redemption prices set forth in the indenture governing the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes. In addition, before August 1, 2022, the Logistics Co-Issuers may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes at a price equal to 110.750% of the principal amount of the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date with an amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings so long as at least 50% of the originally issued aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes remains outstanding. Prior to August 1, 2022, the Logistics Co-Issuers may also redeem all or a part of the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to the sum of: (a) 100% of the principal amount of the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes to be redeemed; plus (b) the applicable “make-whole” premium described in the Indenture governing the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes, plus (c) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes to be redeemed, to (but excluding) the applicable redemption date, subject to the right of holders of notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on all the relevant interest payment date.

Furthermore, upon the occurrence of certain change of control events, the Logistics Co-Issuers may be required to offer to purchase 2025 Logistics Senior Notes from holders at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

The 2025 Logistics Senior Notes are senior secured obligations of the Logistics Co-Issuers and rank equal in right of payment to all of their existing and future senior indebtedness and senior in right of payment to all of their future subordinated indebtedness.

NOTE 7: 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.

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 financing costs. The 2022 Notes, the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes, the 2022 Senior Secured Notes and three Navios Logistics’ loans are fixed rate borrowings and their fair value was determined based on quoted market prices.

Loans payable to affiliate companies: The carrying amount of the fixed rate loan 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 in the interim condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss)/income.

The estimated fair value of our financial instruments that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, categorized based upon the fair value hierarchy, are as follows:

Level I: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that we have the ability to access. Valuation of these items does not entail a significant amount of judgment.

Level II: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level I that are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with market data at the measurement date.

Level III: Inputs that are unobservable.

Omnibus Agreements: Navios Holdings has entered into an omnibus agreement with Navios Partners (the “Partners Omnibus Agreement”) in connection with the closing of Navios Partners’ IPO governing, among other things, when Navios Holdings and Navios Partners may compete against each other as well as rights of first offer on certain dry bulk carriers. Pursuant to the Partners Omnibus Agreement, Navios Partners generally agreed not to acquire or own Panamax or Capesize dry bulk carriers under time charters of three or more years without the consent of an independent committee of Navios Partners. In addition, Navios Holdings has agreed to offer to Navios Partners the opportunity to purchase vessels from Navios Holdings when such vessels are fixed under time charters of three or more years.

Navios Holdings entered into an omnibus agreement with Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners (the “Acquisition Omnibus Agreement”) in connection with the closing of Navios Acquisition’s initial vessel acquisition, pursuant to which, among other things, Navios Holdings and Navios Partners agreed not to acquire, charter-in or own liquid shipment vessels, except for containership vessels and vessels that are primarily employed in operations in South America, without the consent of an independent committee of Navios Acquisition. In addition, Navios Acquisition, under the Acquisition Omnibus Agreement, agreed to cause its subsidiaries not to acquire, own, operate or charter dry bulk carriers subject to specific exceptions. Under the Acquisition Omnibus Agreement, Navios Acquisition and its subsidiaries granted to Navios Holdings and Navios Partners, a right of first offer on any proposed sale, transfer or other disposition of any of its dry bulk carriers and related charters owned or acquired by Navios Acquisition. Likewise, Navios Holdings and Navios Partners agreed to grant a similar right of first offer to Navios Acquisition for any liquid shipment vessels it might own. These rights of first offer will not apply to a (i) sale, transfer or other disposition of vessels between any affiliated subsidiaries, or pursuant to the terms of any charter or other agreement with a counterparty, or (ii) merger with or into, or sale of substantially all of the assets to, an unaffiliated third party.

Navios Holdings entered into an omnibus agreement with Navios Containers, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners, pursuant to which Navios Acquisition, Navios Holdings, Navios Partners and their controlled affiliate companies generally have granted a right of first refusal to Navios Containers over any containership vessels to be sold or acquired in the future, subject to significant exceptions that would allow Navios Acquisition, Navios Holdings and Navios Partners or any of their controlled affiliate companies to compete with Navios Containers under specified circumstances.

Midstream General Partner Option Agreement: Navios Holdings entered into an option agreement, with Navios Acquisition under which Navios Acquisition, which owns and controls Navios Maritime Midstream Partners GP LLC (“Midstream General Partner”), granted Navios Holdings the option to acquire a minimum of 25% of the outstanding membership interests in Midstream General Partner and the incentive distribution rights in Navios Midstream representing the right to receive an increasing percentage of the quarterly distributions when certain conditions are met. The option shall expire on November 18, 2024. The purchase price for the acquisition for all or part of the option interest shall be an amount equal to its fair market value. As of March 31, 2021, 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 recognized the gain immediately in earnings only to the extent of the interest in Navios Partners owned by third parties and deferred recognition of the gain to the extent of its own ownership interest in Navios Partners (the “deferred gain”). Subsequently, the deferred gain was amortized to income over the remaining useful life of the vessel. The recognition of the deferred gain was accelerated in the event that (i) the vessel was subsequently sold or otherwise disposed of by Navios Partners or (ii) the Company’s ownership interest in Navios Partners was reduced. In connection with the public offerings of common units by Navios Partners and the sale of Navios Partners general partnership interest effected on August 30, 2019, a pro rata portion of the deferred gain was released to income upon dilution of the Company’s ownership interest in Navios Partners. As of January 1, 2020, the unamortized deferred gain of $6,285 was recorded as other adjustments within accumulated deficit.

Balance due from Navios Europe II: Navios Holdings, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners had made available to Navios Europe II revolving loans of up to $43,500 to fund the Navios Revolving Loans II. In March 2017, the availability under the Navios Revolving Loans II was increased by $14,000 (see Note 14).

On April 21, 2020, Navios Europe II agreed with the lender to fully release the liabilities under the Junior Loan II for $5,000. Navios Europe II owned seven containership vessels and seven drybulk vessels.

On May 14, 2020, an agreement was reached to liquidate Navios Europe II before its original expiration date. The transaction was completed on June 29, 2020.

As a result of this liquidation, Navios Holdings received the total outstanding balance due from Navios Europe II, representing the Navios Revolving Loans II, the Navios Term Loans II and accrued interest thereof directly owed to Navios Holdings, previously presented within the captions “Due from affiliate companies” and “Loans receivable from affiliate companies” and acquired two Panamax vessels of Navios Europe II.

The Navios Revolving Loans II and the Navios Term Loans II earned interest and an annual preferred return, respectively, at 1,800 basis points per annum, on a quarterly compounding basis and were repaid from free cash flow (as defined in the loan agreement) to the fullest extent possible at the end of each quarter. There were no covenant requirements or stated maturity dates.

The decline in the fair value of the investment during the first quarter of 2020 was considered as other-than-temporary and, therefore, a loss of $6,050 was recognized and included in the accompanying interim condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss)/income for the three month period ended March 31, 2020, within the caption “Impairment of loan receivable from affiliate company”. The fair value was determined based on the liquidation value of Navios Europe II, including the individual fair values assigned to the assets and liabilities of Navios Europe II.

Secured credit facility with Navios Logistics: On April 25, 2019, Navios Holdings entered into a secured credit facility of up to $50,000 with Navios Logistics on a secured basis to be used for general corporate purposes, including the repurchase of 2022 Notes. This credit facility is secured by any 2022 Notes purchased by Navios Holdings with these funds. The secured credit facility included an arrangement fee of $500 and bears a fixed interest rate of 12.75% for the first year and 14.75% for the second year. The secured credit facility includes negative covenants substantially similar to the 2022 Notes and customary events of default. On December 2, 2019, Navios Holdings and Navios Logistics agreed to increase the secured credit facility by $20,000. Following this amendment, as a result of the redemption of the 2022 Notes and Term Loan B Facility in July 2020 and the issuance of 2025 Notes, (a) the interest rate on the secured credit facility decreased to 10.0%, and (b) the maturity of the secured credit facility was extended to December 2024, and is repayable in four equal annual installments. Effective as of May 2021, and upon the release of certain collateral, the facility bears interest of 13.0% per annum. As of March 31, 2021, $70,000 was drawn under this facility, of which $18,726 was used to acquire the 2022 Notes from Navios Logistics and the remaining amount was used to repurchase 2022 Notes.

On June 24, 2020, Navios Logistics assigned its legal and beneficial right, title and interest in the credit facility to its wholly owned subsidiary Grimaud.

On June 25, 2020, Navios Holdings and Grimaud amended the secured credit facility with Navios Logistics to allow a portion of the total interest payable to be effected in common shares of Navios Holdings. On July 10, 2020, Navios Holdings issued 2,414,263 shares of common stock to Navios Logistics and paid Navios Logistics $2,308 in satisfaction of the interest payable in respect of this facility.

NSM Loan: On August 29, 2019, Navios Holdings entered into a secured credit facility of $141,795 (including post-closing adjustments) with Navios Shipmanagement Holdings Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of NSM. In general, the amount owed reflects the excess of (i) the liabilities of the ship management business (including liabilities for advances previously made by affiliate companies to the Company for ongoing operating costs, including technical management services, supplies, dry-docking and related expenses) other than liabilities the assumption of which forms part of the consideration for the Transaction over (ii) the short term assets of the ship management business. The Company’s obligations under the NSM Loan are guaranteed by substantially the same subsidiaries that guarantee the 2022 Notes and secured by assets of the Company that do not secure the Ship Mortgage Notes or the 2022 Senior Secured Notes. The credit facility is repayable over a five-year period; of the initial amount, $47,000 was repayable in 2020 in equal quarterly installments, with the remaining principal repayment in equal quarterly installments over the following 48 months. In certain cases, principal payments can be deferred provided that no more than $20,000 of deferral may be outstanding during the first or second year and $10,000 outstanding in the third year. The loan agreement provides for interest at 5.0% annually, and 7.0% annually for deferred principal amounts. During December 2019, Navios Holdings repaid the amount of $13,420 under the terms of this facility. During June 2020 and July 2020, Navios Holdings repaid the amount of $31,500 and $18,500, respectively, under the terms of this facility.

As of March 31, 2021, the outstanding balance was $78,375 (December 31, 2020: $78,375) and the accrued interest was $515 (December 31, 2020: $526). Of the outstanding amount and accrued interest, $24,365 (December 31, 2020: $10,328) is included within the caption “Current portion of loans payable to affiliate companies”. During May 2021, Navios Holdings repaid the amount of $21,706, under the terms of this facility.

$50.0 million NSM Loan: In June 2020, the Company entered into a secured loan agreement with Navios Shipmanagement Holdings Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of NSM for a loan of up to $50,000 to be used for general corporate purposes.

NOTE 13: (LOSS)/ EARNINGS PER COMMON SHARE

(Loss)/Earnings 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, 2021, 391,676 potential common shares and 0 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, 2020, 599,726 potential common shares and 6,231 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.

In August 2019, Navios Holdings sold the general partnership interests in Navios Partners (except for the incentive distribution rights) to NSM.

On November 18, 2016, Navios Partners entered into a Continuous Offering Program Sales Agreement for the issuance and sale from time to time through its agent common units having an aggregate offering price of up to $25,000. The Sales Agreement was amended on August 3, 2020 to address the updated shelf registration statement pursuant to which sales are made. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, since the date of the amended Sales Agreement, Navios Partners has issued 756,442 and 357,508 units, respectively. Pursuant to the issuance of the common units, Navios Partners issued 15,440 and 7,298 general partnership units to its general partner as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, in order to maintain its 2.0% general partner interest.

As of March 31, 2021 and following the Navios Partners’ Merger (as defined herein), total units of 1,263,276 held in Navios Containers converted to 492,678 units of Navios Partners. Accordingly, Navios Holdings holds a total of 2,562,893 common units representing a 12.6% interest in Navios Partners, and the investment in Navios Partners is accounted for under the equity method. Incentive distribution rights are held by Navios GP L.L.C.

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the unamortized difference between the carrying amount of the investment in Navios Partners and the amount of the Company’s underlying equity in net assets of Navios Partners was $52,768 and $77,904, respectively.

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the carrying amount of the investment in Navios Partners was $71,635 and $39,133, respectively.

Dividends received during each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were $104 and $621, respectively.

As of March 31, 2021, the market value of the investment in Navios Partners was $60,382. Based on Company’s evaluation of the duration and magnitude of the fair value decline, Navios Partners’ financial condition and near-term prospects, and the Company’s intent and ability to hold its investment in Navios Partners until recovery, the Company concluded that the decline in fair value of its investment in Navios Partners below its carrying value is temporary and, therefore, no impairment was recorded.

Navios Acquisition

Stock repurchases will be made from time to time for cash in open market transactions at prevailing market prices or in privately negotiated transactions. As of March 31, 2021, Navios Acquisition had repurchased 735,251 shares of common stock.

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the unamortized difference between the carrying amount of the investment in Navios Acquisition and the amount of the Company’s underlying equity in net assets of Navios Acquisition was $81,624 and $68,793, respectively and is amortized through “Equity in net earnings/(losses) of affiliate companies” over the remaining life of Navios Acquisition tangible and intangible assets. As a result of the OTTI loss recorded as at December 31, 2020, the Company had recomputed this difference which is amortized through “Equity in net earnings/(losses) of affiliate companies” over the remaining life of Navios Acquisition tangible and intangible assets.

As of March 31, 2021, the market value of the investment in Navios Acquisition was $19,704.

Navios Europe II

On February 18, 2015, Navios Holdings, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners established Navios Europe II. From June 8, 2015 through December 31, 2015, Navios Europe II acquired 14 vessels for aggregate consideration consisting of: (i) cash (which was funded with the proceeds of a senior loan facility (the “Senior Loans II”) and loans aggregating to $14,000 from Navios Holdings, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners (in each case, in proportion to their economic interests in Navios Europe II) (collectively, the “Navios Term Loans II”) and (ii) the assumption of a junior participating loan facility (the “Junior Loan II”). In addition to the Navios Term Loans II, Navios Holdings, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners had agreed to make available to Navios Europe II revolving loans up to $43,500 to fund working capital requirements (collectively, the “Navios Revolving Loans II”). In March 2017, the amount of the Navios Revolving Loans II increased by $14,000. On April 21, 2020, Navios Europe II and the lenders agreed to fully release the liabilities under the Junior Loan II for $5,000. The structure was liquidated in June 2020.

On an ongoing basis, Navios Europe II was required to distribute cash flows (after payment of operating expenses, amounts due pursuant to the terms of the Senior Loans II) according to a defined waterfall calculation.

Navios Holdings had evaluated its investment in Navios Europe II under ASC 810 and concluded that Navios Europe II was a VIE and that it had not the party most closely associated with Navios Europe II and, accordingly, was not the primary beneficiary of Navios Europe II.

Navios Holdings had further evaluated its investment in the common stock of Navios Europe II under ASC 323 and had concluded that it had the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of Navios Europe II and, therefore, its investment in Navios Europe II had been accounted for under the equity method.

The initial amount provided for in Navios Europe II of $6,650, at the inception included the Company’s share of the basis difference between the fair value and the underlying book value of the assets of Navios Europe II, which amounted to $9,419. This difference had been amortized through “Equity in net earnings/(losses) of affiliate companies” over the remaining life of Navios Europe II.

As of March 31, 2020, the Company considered the decline in fair value of its investment in Navios Europe II as OTTI and therefore recognized a loss of $6,650 in the accompanying consolidated statement of comprehensive (loss)/income.

No income was recognized within the caption “Equity in net earnings/(losses) of affiliate companies” for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

Navios Containers

Following the sale of Navios Containers general partnership interest effected on August 30, 2019, Navios Holdings evaluated its investment in the common stock of Navios Containers under ASC 323 and concluded that it had the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of Navios Containers and, therefore, its investment in Navios Containers was accounted for under the equity method, through Navios Partners’ Merger (as defined herein) on March 31, 2021.

Total equity method income of $596 and $183, were recognized within the caption “Equity in net earnings/(losses) of affiliate companies” for the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

As of December 31, 2020, the carrying amount of the investment in Navios Containers was $2,812.

Under the terms of the Navios Partners’ Merger, Navios Partners acquired all of the publicly held common units of Navios Containers through the issuance of 8,133,452 newly issued common units of Navios Partners in exchange for the publicly held common units of Navios Containers at an exchange ratio of 0.39 units of Navios Partners for each Navios Containers common unit.

NOTE 16: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

  1.

Navios Holdings has agreed to a form of Eighth Supplemental Indenture with the June 2021 Consenting Noteholders of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes. The June 2021 Consenting Noteholders are delivering consents to the Eighth Supplemental Indenture via DTC, and the Company intends to execute the Eighth Supplemental Indenture immediately once DTC is able to confirm that the requisite consents have been received.

Upon execution, the Eighth Supplemental Indenture eliminates the Company’s obligation to make a springing maturity offer for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes upon the pro rata redemption, at par, of $100,000 in aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes. The Redemption will be funded through (i) the sale of a vessel currently pledged as collateral in respect of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes and (ii) the borrowing of approximately $75,000 from an affiliate of N Shipmanagement Acquisition Corp.

The Eighth Supplemental Indenture also (i) clarifies that all past dividends paid in respect of equity pledged as collateral for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes and any future dividends paid in respect of equity pledged as collateral (other than equity of Navios Logistics) can be used by the Company for general corporate purposes, absent a Default or Event of Default; (ii) provides that future dividends paid in respect of equity of Navios Logistics pledged as collateral for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes may be used only to redeem or repurchase 2022 Senior Secured Notes; (iii) states that the Company may, subject to the occurrence of the Redemption, agree to the cancellation of amounts it owes to Navios Logistics under the Grimaud Loan in lieu of the receipt of pro rata cash dividends from Navios Logistics; (iv) permits the lender under the June 2021 Ship Management Loan to take a second lien on the pledged share collateral (which pledged share collateral secures the 2022 Senior Secured Notes on a first lien basis); and (v) provides that the 2022 Senior Secured Notes will be provided with a first lien security interest in the 7.375% Ship Mortgage Notes that secure the Grimaud Loan as of the date of the Eighth Supplemental Indenture no later than fifteen calendar days following the Cancellation.
