Revenues for the three months of operations ended September 30, 2005 were $51.7
million as compared to $78.2 million for the same period during 2004. EBITDA was
$23.4 million for the third quarter 2005 as compared to $28.4 million for the
same period of 2004. EBITDA for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 also
included a one-time severance payment of $1.4 million to Navios' former CEO in
accordance with a change of control provision contained in his employment
contact.

Net income for the quarter was $16.8 million as compared to $27.3 million for
the comparable period of 2004.

The decline in Revenues and Net income was principally attributable to a
reduction in the number of short-term chartered-in vessels operated by the
company during the respective periods as shown in the exhibit under "Fleet
Summary Data". The "Available Days" for the fleet declined 30.7% to 2,075 days
for the quarter ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the same period for
2004. The "Time Charter Equivalent" rate per day, including Forward Freight
Agreements (FFA's), declined 10.1% to $22,055 for the three months ended
September 30, 2005 as compared to the same period for 2004.

As of September 30, 2005, Navios operated a fleet of 21 vessels, of which 6 were
owned and 15 were under long-term charters at favorable rates. Navios's cash and
cash equivalents balance as of September 30, 2005 was $133.3 million.

Revenues for the nine months of operations ended September 30, 2005 were $179.1
million as compared to $216.3 million for the same period during 2004. EBITDA
was $63.9 million for the first nine months 2005 as compared to $101.6 million
for the same period of 2004. Net income for the nine months ended September 30,
2005 was $54.0 million as compared to $95.9 million for the comparable period of
2004. The first nine months of 2005 were adversely affected by a number of
factors, including (i) a reduction in the number of short-term chartered vessels
operated by Navios as exhibited in the `Fleet Summary Data', (ii) $1.8 million
of transaction costs incurred in connection with the sale of Navios and $1.4
million



                                       2




of one-time severance payments to the former CEO, and (iii) extraordinary
profits in FFA trading in 2004 ($42.5 million).

The "Available Days" for the fleet declined 26.4% to 6,886 days for the nine
months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the same period for 2004. The
"Time Charter Equivalent" rate per day, including FFA's, declined 8.8% to
$23,421 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 as compared to the same
period for 2004.

*Including gains and losses from Forward Freight Agreements ("FFAs"). While FFAs
are an integral part of our shipping business they are, for accounting purposes,
a distinct activity. TCE rates excluding FFAs were, for the three months ending
September 30, 2005 and 2004, $20,720 and $23,235, respectively and were, for the
nine months ending September 30, 2005 and 2004, $23,135 and $21,146,
respectively.

         (1)   Available days for fleet are total calendar days the vessels were
               in our possession for the relevant period after subtracting
               off-hire days associated with major repairs, drydocks or special
               surveys. The shipping industry uses available days to measure the
               number of days in a relevant period during which vessels should
               be capable of generating revenues.
         (2)   Operating days is the number of available days in the relevant
               period less the aggregate number of days that the vessels are
               off-hire due to any reason, including unforeseen circumstances.
               The shipping industry uses operating days to measure the
               aggregate number of days in a relevant period during which
               vessels actually generate revenues.
         (3)   Fleet utilization is the percentage of time that our vessels were
               available for revenue generating available days, and is
               determined by dividing the number of operating days during a
               relevant period by the number of available days during that
               period. The shipping industry uses fleet utilization to measure a
               company's efficiency in finding suitable employment for its
               vessels.
         (4)   Time Charter Equivalent, or TCE, are defined as voyage and time
               charter revenues plus gains or losses on FFAs less voyage
               expenses during a relevant period divided by the number of
               available days during the period.

FLEET EMPLOYMENT PROFILE:
- -------------------------
Following is the `core fleet' employment profile, including new buildings to be

totaling 1.9 million deadweight tons, including six modern Ultra-Handymax
(52,000-55,000 dwt) vessels which the company owns, 15 Panamax (70,000-83,000
dwt) and 8 Ultra-Handymax vessels under long-term time charter. The 21


                                       3




vessels in current operation aggregate approximately 1.3 million deadweight tons
and have an average age of 3.5 years. Navios has currently fixed 57.6% of its
2006 available days.

EBITDA
- ------
EBITDA represents operating earnings before extraordinary items, depreciation
and amortization, net interest expense, and income taxes, if any. EBITDA is
included because it is used by certain investors to measure a company's
financial performance. EBITDA is not an item recognized by US GAAP and should
not be considered a substitute for net income, cash flow from operating
activities and other operations or cash flow statement data prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States or
as a measure of profitability or liquidity. EBITDA is presented to provide
additional information with respect to the Company's ability to satisfy its
obligations including debt service, capital expenditures, and working capital
requirements. While EBITDA is frequently used as a measure of operating results
and the ability to meet debt service requirements, the definition of EBITDA used
here may not be comparable to that used by other companies due to differences in
methods of calculation.
