Recent Developments

Sale of 36-Vessel Dry Bulk Fleet

On July 26, 2022, Navios Holdings agreed to sell its 36-vessel dry bulk fleet for an aggregate consideration of $835.0 million consisting of cash and the assumption of bank debt and finance leases related to the vessels and subject to working capital adjustment at closing, (the “Transaction”), to Navios Partners. The closing of the Transaction was subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of certain consents required in connection with Navios Partners’ assumption of bank debt in connection with the Transaction. The closing of the Transaction was effected in two tranches. The first tranche, involving the transfer of 15 vessels, was completed on July 29, 2022. The second tranche, involving the remaining 21 vessels, was completed on September 8, 2022. The net cash proceeds of the Transaction were used (a) to repay $262.6 million of amounts outstanding under the NSM Loans (as defined herein); and (b) to fully redeem the outstanding balance of $80.0 million under the 2022 Senior Secured Notes (as defined herein) at maturity on August 15, 2022. The Transaction was negotiated and unanimously approved by the Special Committee of Navios Holdings and was also unanimously approved by the full board of directors of Navios Holdings. The actual net cash proceeds will be determined once the working capital adjustments are finalized and settled as per the terms of the agreement. The expected gain from the Transaction will be recorded in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income in the third quarter of 2022.

Repayment of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes

Overview

General

Navios Holdings owns (i) a controlling equity stake in Navios Logistics, a leading infrastructure and logistics company in the Hidrovia region of South America; and (ii) an ownership interest in Navios Maritime Partners L.P. (“Navios Partners”), a leading United States (“U.S.”) publicly listed shipping company that owns and operates dry cargo and tanker vessels.

See also Note 9 “Related Party Transactions” to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report

On July 26, 2022, Navios Holdings agreed to sell its 36-vessel dry bulk fleet for an aggregate consideration of $835.0 million to Navios Partners. For further information see Note 16 “Subsequent Events” to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report. As a result of this sale, we will no longer report results for our dry bulk segment and we expect our results of operations for the periods prior to the consummation of the Transaction to be different from the results following the consummation of the Transaction.

Navios Logistics

Navios Logistics, a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, was incorporated under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands on December 17, 2007. Navios Logistics believes it is one of the largest infrastructures and logistics companies in the Hidrovia region river system, the main navigable river system in the region (the “Hidrovia region”), and on the cabotage trades along the south-eastern coast of South America. Navios Logistics serves its customers in the Hidrovia region through its three existing port storage and transfer facilities (the “Port Terminal Business”). The Port Terminal Business comprises its grain port terminal (the “Grain Port Terminal”), which supports agricultural and forest-related exports; its iron-ore port terminal (the “Iron Ore Port Terminal”), which supports mineral-related exports; and its liquid port terminal (the “Liquid Port Terminal”), with tank storage for refined petroleum products. The Grain Port Terminal and the Iron Ore Port Terminal (together, the “Dry Port Terminal”) are located in Nueva Palmira, Uruguay, and the Liquid Port Terminal is located in San Antonio, Paraguay. Navios Logistics complements these three port terminals with a diverse fleet of 359 barges and pushboats that operate in its barge business (the “Barge Business”), and eight vessels, comprising six tankers, one bunker vessel and one river and estuary product tanker, all of which operate in its cabotage business (“the Cabotage Business”). Navios Logistics provides transportation for dry cargo (cereals, cotton pellets, soybeans, wheat, limestone (clinker), mineral iron, and rolling stones), liquid cargo (hydrocarbons such as crude oil, gas oil, naphtha, fuel oil and vegetable oils) and liquefied cargo (liquefied petroleum gas or “LPG”). As of June 30, 2022, Navios Holdings owned 63.8% of Navios Logistics.

Industry Outlook

Navios Logistics believes the Dry Port Terminal that it owns and operates is the largest independent bulk transfer and storage port terminal complex in Uruguay based on throughputs, and that the Liquid Port Terminal is one of the largest independent storage facilities for crude and petroleum products in Paraguay based on storage capacity. Navios Logistics also believes that it is also one of the largest owners and operators of a diverse and versatile fleet of dry and liquid 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 use both its dry port and dry barge services such as Vale International S.A. (“Vale”), Vetria Mineracao S.A. (“Vetria”), Alicorp and other customers that use or have used 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 commodity 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.

Navios Holdings believes that its shareholding in Navios Partners, one of the largest listed shipowning companies, provides it with the potential for consistent earnings through dry bulk, tanker and container market cycles. Navios Partners unique fleet composition of 16 vessel types provides exposure to over 10 different end markets, mitigating individual segment volatility and allows for flexible chartering and capital allocation strategies. Such strategies allow Navios Partners to fix long term charters which lock in cash flows for five years or more in strong markets while fixing shorter term in markets as they return to higher levels. Navios Holdings believes that Navios Partners’ low leverage and significant potential cash flow will allow it to acquire new vessels or upgrade its fleet at cyclical lows or through distressed opportunities not available to single fleet focused companies constrained by capital restrictions during market lows. Navios Partners’ fleet carries iron ore, coal, grain, other dry commodities, crude oil, petroleum products, bulk liquid chemicals and semi-finished and finished goods globally for a broad range of high quality counterparties, such as BHP, Cargill, Glencore, Shell, Chevron, Aramco, Maersk Line, MSC and Costco (the US retailer) among others. Navios Holdings believes that a decrease in global dry or liquid commodity or semi-finished or finished goods demand from its current level, and the delivery of dry bulk, tanker or container carrier new buildings into the world fleet, could have an adverse impact on Navios Partners’ revenue and profitability. However, Navios Holdings believes that the operating cost advantage achieved with the fixed-cost contracts provided by the Manager for the Navios Partners fleet and the exposure to over 10 different end markets will continue to help mitigate the impact of possible future declines in freight rates in any one sector. In a reduced freight rate environment, the value of one or more sectors of Navios Partners’ fleet would be negatively affected, and the availability of ship financing could be limited.

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 and logistics industry generally and that affect conditions in countries and markets in which its vessels engage in business. In addition, Navios Holding believes its business could be materially and adversely affected by the ongoing war in Ukraine and continuing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Please read “Risk Factors” included in Navios Holdings’, Navios Partners’ and Navios Logistics’ Annual Reports on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC for a discussion of certain risks inherent in their businesses

 

Chartering Arrangements

Navios Logistics continually monitors developments in the shipping industry and make decisions based on an individual vessel and segment basis, as well as on their view of overall market conditions, in order to implement their business strategy. In its Barge Business, Navios Logistics typically operates under a mix of time charters and contracts of affreightment (“CoAs”) having one-to-five year terms (some of which have minimum guaranteed volumes) and spot contracts. In its Cabotage Business, Navios Logistics typically operates under time charters with terms in excess of one year. Some of its charters provide fixed pricing, minimum volume requirements, and adjustment formulas for labor cost and fuel price.

Statement of Operations Breakdown by Segment

Navios Holdings reports financial information and evaluates its operations by charter revenue 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 as of the periods reflected in this Report 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, see Note 12 “Segment Information” to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report. As a result of the Transaction, our results of operations will no longer reflect the Dry Bulk Vessel Operations for full periods occurring subsequent to the Transaction.

Equivalent vessels(4)   36     43
AVERAGE DAILY RESULTS          
Time Charter Equivalents(5) $ 26,984   $ 21,572

(1) 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 revenue.

(2) 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.

(3) 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.

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

(5) 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.

 

  6  

During the three month period ended June 30, 2022, there were 641 fewer available days as compared to the same period during 2021 due to (i) a decrease of 350 days in available days for charter-in vessels due to the redelivery of four charter-in vessels to their owners in 2021 and the acquisition of one charter-in vessel in 2021, which was then sold to a related party; and (ii) a decrease in available days for owned and bareboat-in vessels by 291 days following the sale of four of the Company’s vessels in 2021.

The average TCE rate for the three month period ended June 30, 2022 was $26,984 per day, which was 25.1% or $5,412 per day higher than the rate achieved in the same period during 2021. This increase was primarily due to the improvement in the time charter and freight markets during the three month period ended June 30, 2022.

Revenue: Revenue from Dry Bulk Vessel Operations for the three month period ended June 30, 2022 increased by $4.0 million, or 4.6%, to $90.0 million, as compared to $86.1 million for the same period during 2021. The increase in dry bulk revenue was mainly attributable to the improvement in time charter and freight markets during the three month period ended June 30, 2022, partially mitigated by the decrease in available days as compared to 2021.

Revenue from the Logistics Business was $69.2 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $57.6 million for the same period in 2021. The increase was mainly attributable to (i) a $6.6 million increase in revenue from the Port Terminal Business mainly due to higher volumes transshipped in the Grain Port Terminal due to increased Uruguayan soybean production and exports and higher tariffs at the Iron Ore Terminal; (ii) a $4.7 million increase in revenue from the Cabotage Business mainly due to more operating days; and (iii) a $0.6 million increase in revenue from the Barge Business, mainly due to a $2.5 million increase in CoA/voyage revenues, related to higher liquid cargo moved. The increase in revenue from CoA/voyages was mitigated by a $1.9 million decrease in time charter revenues. The overall increase was partially mitigated by a $0.3 million decrease in sales of products due to the decrease in the Paraguayan liquid port’s volume of products sold.

Time Charter, Voyage and Logistics Business Expenses: Time charter, voyage and logistics business expenses decreased by $1.2 million, or 3.2%, to $35.6 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $36.8 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2021.

The time charter and voyage expenses from Dry Bulk Vessel Operations decreased by $3.7 million, or 17.7%, to $17.2 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $20.9 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2021. This decrease was mainly attributable to a $3.8 million decrease in charter-in expenses, partially mitigated by a $0.1 million increase in other voyage expenses.

Of the total expenses for the three month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, $18.4 million and $15.9 million, respectively, related to Navios Logistics. The increase of $2.5 million in time charter, voyage and Logistics Business expenses related to Navios Logistics was mainly due to (i) a $2.0 million increase in time charter and voyage expenses of the Barge Business mainly due to higher fuel prices; (ii) a $0.7 million increase in port terminal expenses, mainly due to higher volumes transshipped in the Grain Port Terminal; and (iii) a $0.1 million increase in the time charter and voyage expenses of the Cabotage Business. The overall increase was partially mitigated by a $0.3 million decrease in cost of products sold attributable to no products sold in the Paraguayan liquid port terminal during the second quarter.

Direct Vessel Expenses: Direct vessel expenses increased by $0.8 million, or 2.8%, to $30.0 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $29.2 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2021.

Direct vessel expenses from Dry Bulk Vessel Operations decreased by $0.5 million, or 4.5%, to $11.2 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $11.8 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2021. This decrease was mainly attributable to a $1.1 million decrease in vessel operating expenses (management fees); partially mitigated by (i) a $0.4 million increase in other expenses mainly related to COVID-19 measures, including crew related expenses; and (ii) a $0.2 million increase in drydocking and special survey amortization.

Of the total amounts for the three month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, $18.8 million and $17.5 million, respectively, were related to Navios Logistics. The increase of $1.3 million for Navios Logistics was mainly attributable to a $2.0 million increase in direct vessel expenses of the Cabotage Business mainly due to increased crew costs; partially mitigated by a $0.7 million decrease in direct vessel expenses of the Barge Business.

Dry Bulk Vessel Operations   $ 5,266   $ 5,054
Logistics Business     4,074     3,490
General and administrative expenses   $ 9,340   $ 8,544

General and administrative expenses increased by $0.8 million to $9.3 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $8.5 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2021. The increase was mainly attributable to (i) a $0.6 million increase in general and administrative expenses related to Navios Logistics, due to an increase in professional fees, salaries and travel expenses; and (ii) a $0.2 million increase in general and administrative expenses of Dry Bulk Vessel Operations. For the three month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 general and administrative expenses under the Administrative Services Agreement (as defined herein), amounted to $2.0 million and $2.2 million, respectively.

Depreciation and Amortization: For the three month period ended June 30, 2022, depreciation and amortization decreased by $1.3 million to $6.6 million, as compared to $7.9 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2021.

Depreciation expenses related to Dry Bulk Vessel Operations decreased by $1.3 million, or 17.7%, to $5.9 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $7.2 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2021. This decrease was primarily due to (i) the sale of four of the Company’s vessels in 2021. Amortization expenses related to dry bulk operations remained stable at $0.7 million for each of the three month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Depreciation and amortization expense related to Navios Logistics remained stable at $8.1 million for both of the three month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

Interest Expense and Finance Cost, Net: Interest expense and finance cost, net decreased by $0.8 million, or 2.3%, to $35.3 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $36.2 million for the same period in 2021. This decrease was mainly due to a $1.1 million decrease in interest expense and finance cost, net of Dry Bulk Vessel Operations, mainly due to partial redemption of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes (as defined herein) and full repayment of the 2022 Notes (as defined herein). The decrease was partially mitigated by the drawdowns of (i) the HCOB facility (as defined herein), (ii) the CACIB/BNP facility (as defined herein), (iii) the two new sale and leaseback agreements (as defined herein) and (iv) the NSM Loans (as defined herein), which occurred during the first quarter of 2022. The overall decrease was mitigated by a $0.3 million increase in interest expenses and finance cost, net of the Logistics Business, mainly due to the higher weighted average interest rate of Navios Logistics for the three month period ended June 30, 2022.

During the six month period ended June 30, 2022, there were 1,691 fewer available days as compared to the same period in 2021, due to (i) a decrease in available days of owned and bareboat-in vessels by 870 days following the sale of seven of the Company’s vessels in 2021; and (ii) a decrease of 821 days in available days for charter-in vessels due to the redelivery of five charter-in vessels to their owners in 2021 and the acquisition of one charter-in vessel in 2021, which was then sold to a related party.

The average TCE rate for the six month period ended June 30, 2021 was $24,425 per day, which is $6,563 per day higher than the rate achieved in the same period in 2021. This increase was primarily due to the improvement in the time charter and freight markets during the six month period ended June 30, 2022.

Revenue: Revenue from Dry Bulk Vessel Operations for the six month period ended June 30, 2022 increased by $8.9 million, or 5.9%, to $158.7 million, as compared to $149.8 million for the same period in 2021. The increase in dry bulk revenue was mainly attributable to the improvement in time charter and freight markets during the six month period ended June 30, 2022, which was partially mitigated by the decrease in available days compared to the same period in 2021.

Revenue from the Logistics Business was $128.3 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $110.8 million for the same period in 2021.

For the six month period ended June 30, 2022, CoA/voyage revenues increased by $3.9 million to $42.4 million, as compared to $38.5 million for the same period in 2021, related to higher liquid cargo moved. The increase in revenue from CoA/voyages was partially mitigated by a $2.5 million decrease in time charter revenues to $2.5 million, as compared to $5.0 million for the same period in 2021. The overall increase was partially mitigated by a $1.9 million decrease in sales of products due to the decrease in the Paraguayan liquid port’s volume of products sold.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On July 26, 2022, Navios Holdings agreed to sell its 36-vessel dry bulk fleet to Navios Partners for an aggregate consideration of $835.0 million consisting of cash and the assumption of bank debt and finance leases related to the vessels, and subject to working capital adjustment at closing . The Transaction closed in the third quarter of 2022.

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 refinancing 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 or equity in privately negotiated or open market transactions, by tender offer or otherwise, in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, at prices and on terms Navios Holdings deems appropriate (which may be below par) and subject to our cash requirements for other purposes, compliance with the covenants under our debt agreements, and other factors that our management deems relevant. In addition, Navios Logistics’ regularly reviews options for refinancing its 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 it. Generally, our sources of funds may be from cash flows from operations, long-term borrowings, other debt or equity financings, proceeds from asset sales, and proceeds from dispositions of our stakes in our investments. We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to secure adequate financing or obtain additional funds on favorable terms to meet our liquidity needs.

Cash used in financing activities for the six month period ended June 30, 2022 for the Logistics Business was the result of: (i) $29.0 million in proceeds from Navios Logistics’ long term debt; and (ii) $28.6 million in payments made in connection with Navios Logistics’ outstanding indebtedness.

Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 for the Dry Bulk Vessel Operations was the result of: (i) $104.8 million in payments made in connection with the Company’s outstanding indebtedness; and (ii) $12.5 million in payments for the repurchase of the 2022 Notes.

Adjusted EBITDA: EBITDA represents net 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.

  14  

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 and joint ventures, net of dividends received; (vii) payments for drydock and special survey costs; (viii) noncontrolling interest; (ix) gain/ (loss) on sale of assets/ subsidiaries/businesses, on loss of control and bargain gain; (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 Navios Holdings and other 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.

  19  

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.

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. 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 are 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.

Working Capital Position and Bond Maturity

As of June 30, 2022, Navios Holdings’ current assets totaled $153.7 million, while current liabilities excluding operating lease liabilities, current portion totaled $315.3 million, resulting in a negative working capital position of $161.6 million, primarily related to the classification as current of $90.0 million of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes due in August 2022 and $77.7 million of scheduled repayments of the bank debt and finance leases related to the vessels as described below and in Note 6 “Borrowings” to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report.

As of August 2022, the Company had redeemed its 2022 Senior Secured Notes in full. Please see Note 6 “Borrowings” to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report.

In July 2022, Navios Holdings agreed to sell its 36-vessel dry bulk fleet for an aggregate consideration of $835.0 million consisting of cash and the assumption of all of the bank debt and finance leases related to the vessels and subject to working capital adjustment at closing, (the “Transaction”), to Navios Partners. The closing of the Transaction was completed within the third quarter of 2022. The net cash proceeds from the Transaction were used (i) to repay $262.6 million of amount outstanding under the NSM Loan I and II; and (ii) to fully redeem the outstanding balance of $80.0 million under the 2022 Senior Secured Notes. Any remaining proceeds will be used to cover transaction costs and for general corporate purposes.

Based on internal forecasts and projections that take into account potential changes in the Company’s trading performance and other assets, management believes that the Company has adequate financial resources to continue in operation and meet its financial commitments, including but not limited to capital expenditures and debt service obligations, for a period of at least twelve months from the date of issuance of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Although internal forecasts and projections are driven by market data and are subject to future volatility along with other factors outside the control of the Company, with the existence of alternative liquidity sources and management’s ability to utilize them if needed, management concludes that the Company has the ability to continue as a going concern as of the date of the issuance of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Capital Expenditures

Navios Logistics

Since 2018, Navios Logistics has acquired approximately 9.0 hectares of undeveloped land located in the Port Murtinho region of Brazil. Navios Logistics plans to develop this land for its port operations for a total cost of $1.6 million.

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

For the six month period ended June 30, 2022, no customer accounted for more than 10.0% of the Company’s revenue. For the six month period ended June 30, 2021, one customer accounted for 10.8% of the Company’s revenue.

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

In July 2022, Vale S.A. announced the closing of the sale of its iron ore, manganese ore and logistics assets in the Midwestern system to J&F Mineracao Ltda., an entity controlled by J&F Investimentos S.A. The Vale port contract entered into between Corporacion Navios S.A., a company controlled by Navios Logistics, and Vale International S.A. (“Vale”), dated September 27, 2013, remains in full force and effect. Any transfer, novation, or assignment of the Vale port contract or any obligations or rights arising thereunder by Vale is subject to the prior approval of the Navios counterparty.

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 maintains cash deposits in excess of government-provided insurance limits. Navios Holdings also reduces exposure to credit risk by dealing with a diversified group of major financial institutions.

Effects of Inflation

Navios Holdings does not consider inflation to be a significant risk to the cost of doing business in the foreseeable future. The Company considered various factors in assessing the impact of Argentina’s highly inflationary economy on Navios Logistics, including sales, financing arrangements, working capital, employee salaries, and taxes. The functional currency of the Company’s Argentinian subsidiary is the U.S. dollar and 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 highly inflationary economic environment in Argentina would not have a material impact on Navios Logistics’ financial statements and as such, determined not to issue a restatement.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2022, Navios Holdings was contingently liable for letters of guarantee and letters of credit amounting to $10,000 issued by one bank in favor of various organizations and the total amount was collateralized by cash deposits, which were included as a component of restricted cash.

  22  

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, 2023.

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 to be paid to Navios Logistics as a result of the settlement of $4.1 million, which is collected in three equal installments of $1.4 million on June 1, 2021, 2022 and 2023. In June 2021 and 2022, Navios Logistics collected the first and second installment, respectively.

On April 28, 2022, Navios Logistics entered into a five year finance leasing contract for eight liquid barges to be delivered from the fourth quarter of 2022 through the second quarter of 2023. The finance lease contract is payable by 60 consecutive monthly payments of $26 each, commencing with the delivery date of the applicable barge. At expiration, the Navios Logistics will have the ability to exercise the purchase option of these barges or extend the term of the finance leasing contract.

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.

NSM Loan: On August 29, 2019, Navios Holdings entered into a secured credit facility of $141.8 million (including post-closing adjustments) with a wholly owned subsidiary of NSM (the “NSM Loan”). 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 sale of the management division; over (ii) the short term assets of the ship management business. The Company’s obligations under the NSM Loan were guaranteed by substantially the same subsidiaries that guaranteed the 2022 Notes and secured by assets of the Company that did not secure the 2022 Notes or the 2022 Senior Secured Notes. The credit facility was 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 could 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 provided for interest at 5.0% annually, and 7.0% annually for deferred principal amounts.

$50.0 million NSM Loan: In June 2020, the Company entered into a secured loan agreement with a wholly owned subsidiary of NSM, for a loan of up to $50.0 million to be used for general corporate purposes (the “$50.0 million NSM Loan”). 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 was repayable in up to 18 equal consecutive quarterly installments. The loan agreement provided for interest at a rate of 5.0% annually (and 7.0% annually for deferred principal amounts).

The terms and conditions of the secured loan agreement were approved by a Special Committee of the Board of Directors comprised of independent directors. Tranche A was repayable in 14 quarterly installments of $2.8 million and matured on November 30, 2024. Tranche B was repayable in seven quarterly installments with the first two being of an amount of $22.6 million each and the remaining of an amount of $6,000 each and matured on February 28, 2023.

Both tranches bore interest at a rate of 10.5% per annum, payable quarterly. The Company could have elected to defer one scheduled amortization payment by 90 days and interest payments, in which case the applicable interest rate would be 12.0% per annum, compounded quarterly.

On July 12, 2021, the amount under this facility was fully drawn.

In December 2021, the Company entered into an amended and restated secured loan agreement with NSM in order to refinance the outstanding balance of that facility through the NSM Loan I (as defined herein).

As of June 30, 2022, the outstanding balance was $135.0 million and an amount of $11.9 million of accrued PIK interest at 18% is included under the caption “Convertible debenture payable to affiliate companies”.

  26  

Following the repayments of the NSM Loan I and NSM Loan II described above, the applicable prepayment fee paid via increase of the Convertible Debenture is $61.7 million.

In accordance with the terms of the Convertible Debenture, Navios Holdings issued 1,000 shares of preferred stock (the “Series I Preferred Stock”) on January 3, 2022, which have no voting and no economic rights. The Series I Preferred Stock represent 9,133,147 and 29,754,721 shares of common stock issuable as of June 30, 2022 and September 13, 2022, respectively, upon conversion of a Convertible Debenture and are deemed outstanding for voting purposes. Under the terms of the Convertible Debenture, the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof will increase to the extent that amounts outstanding under the Convertible Debenture increase. NSM, the holder of the Series I Preferred Stock, may convert any or all of the outstanding preferred stock into common stock at its option at any time until the maturity of the Convertible Debenture at the conversion rate of $3.93 per common stock. In addition, there are also provisions for mandatory conversion upon the occurrence of certain events. NSM is an affiliate of our Chairwoman and Chief Executive Officer, Angeliki Frangou.

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.

Promissory note: On July 30, 2021, Navios Logistics issued a $20.0 million promissory note to Grimaud. The promissory note is payable in four semi-annual equal installments commencing on August 15, 2021. The Company has the ability to defer payment of one of the first three installments subject to certain conditions. On July 30, 2021, Grimaud entered into an assignment agreement with Peers Business Inc., whereby the promissory note was assigned to Peers Business Inc. See Note 10 “Preferred and Common Stock” to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report. As of August 15, 2022, the Company paid an amount of $10.0 million relating to the promissory note.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks

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

Interest Rate Risk

Debt Instruments — On June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, Navios Holdings had a total of $1,291.4 million and $1,405.8 million, respectively, of long-term indebtedness. All of the Company’s debt is U.S. dollar-denominated. The 2025 Logistics Senior Notes, the 2022 Senior Secured Notes (which as of the date of this Report have been repaid in full), three sale and leaseback agreements (which as of the date of this Report have been assigned to Navios Partners pursuant to the Transaction), and four 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 June 30, 2022, the outstanding amount of the Company’s floating rate loan facilities was $293.7 million. A change in the LIBOR rate of 100 basis points would change interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 by $1.5 million. The interest rates on the 2025 Logistics Senior Notes, the 2022 Senior Secured Notes, the 2024 Notes, the NSM Loans, the three sale and leaseback agreements, and the four Navios Logistics’ loans are fixed and, therefore, changes in interest rates affect their fair value, which as of June 30, 2022 was $972.0 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” to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report.

Foreign Currency Risk

Foreign Currency: In general, the shipping industry is a U.S.-dollar-denominated industry. Revenue is set mainly in U.S. dollars, and 66.2% of Navios Holdings’ expenses are also incurred in U.S. dollars. Certain of our expenses, including a majority of the expenses of the Logistics Business, are paid in foreign currencies and a one percent change in the exchange rates of the various currencies at June 30, 2022 would change net income by $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

  27  

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, 2021.

Investments in Equity Securities

Navios Holdings evaluates its investments in Navios Partners and evaluated its investments in Navios Acquisition and Navios Containers (through its acquisition by Navios Partners on October 15, 2021 and March 31, 2021, respectively) 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 “Investments in Affiliate Companies and Investments in Available-For-Sale Securities” to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Report).

UNAUDITED CONDENSED NOTES TO THE

 

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) owns (i) a controlling equity stake in Navios South American Logistics Inc. (“Navios Logistics”), a leading infrastructure and logistics company in the Hidrovia region of South America; and (ii) an ownership interest in Navios Maritime Partners L.P. (“Navios Partners”), a leading, United States (“U.S.”) publicly listed shipping company which owns and operates dry cargo and tanker vessels.

On July 26, 2022, Navios Holdings agreed to sell its 36-vessel dry bulk fleet for an aggregate consideration of $835,000 consisting of cash and the assumption of bank debt and finance leases related to the vessels and subject to working capital adjustment at closing (the “Transaction”), to Navios Partners. For further information see Note 16 “Subsequent Events” in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

Prior to the Transaction, Navios Holdings was a global seaborne shipping and logistics company focused on the transport and transshipment of dry bulk commodities, including iron ore, coal and grain.

Navios Logistics

Navios Logistics, a consolidated subsidiary of the Company, was incorporated under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands on December 17, 2007. Navios Logistics believes it is one of the largest infrastructures and logistics companies in the Hidrovia region of South America, focusing on the Hidrovia river system, the main navigable river system in the region, and on cabotage trades along the south-eastern coast of South America. Navios Logistics is focused on providing its customers integrated transportation, storage and related services through its port facilities, its large, versatile fleet of dry and liquid cargo barges and its product tankers. Navios Logistics serves the needs of a number of growing South American industries, including mineral and grain commodity providers as well as users of refined petroleum products. As of June 30, 2022, Navios Holdings owned 63.8% of Navios Logistics’ stock.

Navios Partners

Navios Partners (NYSE:NMM) is an international owner and operator of dry cargo and tanker vessels and is engaged in the seaborne transportation services of a wide range of liquid and dry cargo commodities. Types of commodities Navios Partners transports include crude oil, refined petroleum, chemicals, iron ore, coal, grain, fertilizer and containers. Navios Partners charters its vessels under short-, medium-, and longer-term charters.

On March 31, 2021, Navios Partners acquired Navios Maritime Containers L.P. (“Navios Containers”), an international owner and operator of containerships, in a merger transaction (the “NMCI Merger”). Following the completion of the NMCI Merger on March 31, 2021, Navios Containers’ common units were no longer listed for trading on NASDAQ.

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 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, 2021 filed on Form 20-F with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom and other countries have announced sanctions against Russia, and may impose wider sanctions and take other actions in the future. To date, no apparent consequences have been identified on the Company’s business. It should be noted that since the Company employs Ukrainian and Russian seafarers, it may face problems in relation to their employment, repatriation, salary payments and be subject to claims in this regard. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is possible that these tensions might eventually have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

 

Going concern

 

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

As of June 30, 2022, Navios Holdings’ current assets totaled $153,668, while current liabilities excluding operating lease liabilities, current portion totaled $315,258, resulting in a negative working capital position of $161,590, primarily related to the classification as current of $90,000 of the 11.25% Senior Secured Notes due in August 2022 (the “2022 Senior Secured Notes”) and $77,704 of scheduled repayments of the bank debt and finance leases related to the vessels as described below and in Note 6 “Borrowings” to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

As of August 2022, the Company had redeemed its 2022 Senior Secured Notes in full. Please see Note 6 “Borrowings” to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

In July 2022, Navios Holdings agreed to sell its 36-vessel dry bulk fleet for an aggregate consideration of $835,000 consisting of cash and the assumption of all of the bank debt and finance leases related to the vessels and subject to working capital adjustment at closing, (the “Transaction”), to Navios Partners. The closing of the Transaction was completed within the third quarter of 2022. The net cash proceeds from the Transaction were used (i) to repay $262,632 of amount outstanding under the NSM Loan I and II; and (ii) to fully redeem the outstanding balance of $80,000 under the 2022 Senior Secured Notes. Any remaining proceeds will be used to cover transaction costs and for general corporate purposes.

Based on internal forecasts and projections that take into account potential changes in the Company’s trading performance and other assets, management believes that the Company has adequate financial resources to continue in operation and meet its financial commitments, including but not limited to capital expenditures and debt service obligations, for a period of at least twelve months from the date of issuance of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Although internal forecasts and projections are driven by market data and are subject to future volatility along with other factors outside the control of the Company, with the existence of alternative liquidity sources and management’s ability to utilize them if needed, management concludes that the Company has the ability to continue as a going concern as of the date of the issuance of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

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

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

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 June 30, 2022 was 10.3%); Navios Acquisition and its subsidiaries (ownership interest through the Navios Partners’ NNA Merger in October 2021, was 6.9%); and (iii) Navios Containers and its subsidiaries (ownership interest through Navios Partners’ NMCI Merger in March 2021 was 3.9%).

 

(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.

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 number of days traveled as of the balance sheet date divided by the number of 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 set forth in the applicable 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. However, for loss generating time charters, the loss is recognized in the period during which the loss is generated. 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. Charters for periods of less than three months are referred to as spot-charters. Charters for periods of three months to a year are generally referred to as medium-term charters. All other charters are considered long-term. For time-charters, the owner of the vessel typically pays the vessel’s operating costs, such as crews, maintenance and insurance.

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 to load 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 upon term. 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.

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

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

(d)   Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

 

Adoption of new accounting pronouncements:

In July 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-05, Lease (Topic 842): Lessors—Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments (“ASU 2021-05”). The guidance in ASU 2021-05 amends the lease classification requirements for the lessors under certain leases containing variable payments to align with practice under ASC 840. The lessor should classify and account for a lease with variable lease payments that do not depend on a reference index or a rate as an operating lease if both of the following criteria are met: 1) the lease would have been classified as a sales-type lease or a direct financing lease in accordance with the classification criteria in ASC 842-10-25-2 through 25-3; and 2) the lessor would have otherwise recognized a day-one loss. The amendments in ASU 2021-05 are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021. The adoption of this ASU on January 1, 2022 did not have a material impact on the Company’s interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

On August 5, 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt -Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging -Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40). The objective of this update is to improve understandability and reduce complexity on distinguishing liabilities from equity. Amendments affect entities that issue convertible instruments and/or contracts indexed to and potentially settled in an entity’s own equity. The amendments in this update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption is allowed through either a modified retrospective method of transition or a fully retrospective method of transition. The adoption of this ASU on January 1, 2022 did not have a material impact on the Company’s opening balances and interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

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 2025 Logistics Senior Notes, the 2022 Senior Secured Notes (which as of the date of this Report have been repaid in full), three sale and leaseback agreements (which as of the date of this Report have been assigned to Navios Partners pursuant to the Transaction) and four Navios Logistics’ loans are fixed rate borrowings and their fair value was determined based on quoted market prices.

Loans payable to affiliate companies, including Convertible Debenture: The carrying amounts of the fixed rate loan and the Convertible Debenture approximate their 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 income.

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

    June 30, 2022     December 31, 2021

The Company is involved in a number of legal proceedings and has various unresolved claims pending arising in the ordinary course of business. Based on currently available information and the opinion of legal counsel, management believes that the final outcome will not have a significant effect on the Company’s operating results or financial position and that no additional provisions over and above provisions already reflected in the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are required.
