We are also pleased to report net earnings per common unit of $3.65 for the quarter.”

Three month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

Time charter and voyage revenues for the three month period ended June 30, 2023 increased by $66.2 million, or 23.6%, to $346.9 million, as compared to $280.7 million for the same period in 2022. The increase in revenue was mainly attributable to the increase in the size of our fleet and to the slight increase in Time Charter Equivalent (“TCE”) rate. For the three month periods ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, the time charter and voyage revenues were affected by $7.5 million and $11.8 million, respectively, relating to the straight line effect of the containerships and tankers charters with de-escalating rates. The TCE rate increased by 0.3% to $23,900 per day, as compared to $23,823 per day for the same period in 2022. The available days of the fleet increased by 20.4% to 13,572 days for the three month period ended June 30, 2023, as compared to 11,269 days for the same period in 2022 mainly due to the acquisition of the 36-vessel dry bulk fleet from Navios Maritime Holdings Inc. (“Navios Holdings”) and the deliveries of newbuilding and secondhand vessels, partially mitigated by the sale of vessels.

EBITDA of Navios Partners for the three month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was affected by the items described in the table above. Excluding these items, Adjusted EBITDA increased by $28.0 million to $191.5 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $163.5 million for the same period in 2022. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to a $66.2 million increase in time charter and voyage revenues, partially mitigated by: (i) a $20.3 million increase in time charter and voyage expenses, mainly due to the increase in (a) bunker expenses arising from the increased number of freight voyages in the second quarter of 2023 and (b) bareboat and charter-in hire expense of the tanker and dry bulk fleet; (ii) an $8.6 million increase in vessel operating expenses in accordance with our management agreements, mainly due to the expansion of our fleet; (iii) a $6.3 million increase in general and administrative expenses in accordance with our administrative services agreement, mainly due to the expansion of our fleet; (iv) a $1.7 million increase in direct vessel expenses (excluding the amortization of deferred drydock, special survey costs and other capitalized items); and (v) a $1.3 million increase in other expenses, net.

Net Income for the three month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was affected by the items described in the table above. Excluding these items, Adjusted Net Income decreased by $16.0 million to $102.2 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $118.2 million for the same period in 2022. The decrease in Adjusted Net Income was primarily due to: (i) an $18.8 million increase in interest expense and finance cost, net; and (ii) a $27.7 million negative impact from the depreciation and amortization, mainly due to a: (a) $12.3 million decrease in the amortization of the unfavorable lease terms, (b) $12.3 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense and (c) $3.1 million increase in amortization of deferred drydock, special survey costs and other capitalized items, partially mitigated by a: (i) $28.0 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA; and (ii) $2.5 million increase in interest income.

Six month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022

Time charter and voyage revenues for the six month period ended June 30, 2023 increased by $139.2 million, or 26.9%, to $656.5 million, as compared to $517.3 million for the same period in 2022. The increase in revenue was mainly attributable to the increase in the size of our fleet and to the slight increase in TCE rate. For the six month periods ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, the time charter and voyage revenues were affected by $20.5 million and $16.5 million, respectively, relating to the straight line effect of the containerships and tankers charters with de-escalating rates. The TCE rate increased by 1.0% to $22,337 per day, as compared to $22,107 per day for the same period in 2022. The available days of the fleet increased by 22.1% to 27,480 days for the six month period ended June 30, 2023, as compared to 22,497 days for the same period in 2022, mainly due to the acquisition of the 36-vessel dry bulk fleet from Navios Holdings and the deliveries of newbuilding and secondhand vessels, partially mitigated by the sale of vessels.

EBITDA of Navios Partners for the six month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was affected by the items described in the table above. Excluding these items, Adjusted EBITDA increased by $57.2 million to $346.8 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $289.6 million for the same period in 2022. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily due to a $139.2 million increase in time charter and voyage revenues, partially mitigated by: (i) a $42.8 million increase in time charter and voyage expenses, mainly due to the increase in (a) bunker expenses arising from the increased number of freight voyages in the first half of 2023 and (b) bareboat and charter-in hire expense of the tanker and dry bulk fleet; (ii) an $18.6 million increase in vessel operating expenses in accordance with our management agreements, mainly due to the expansion of our fleet; (iii) an $11.9 million increase in general and administrative expenses in accordance with our administrative services agreement, mainly due to the expansion of our fleet; (iv) a $6.4 million increase in other expenses, net; and (v) a $2.3 million increase in direct vessel expenses (excluding the amortization of deferred drydock, special survey costs and other capitalized items).

Net Income for the six month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was affected by the items described in the table above. Excluding these items, Adjusted Net Income decreased by $35.9 million to $167.9 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2023, as compared to $203.8 million for the same period in 2022. The decrease in Adjusted Net Income was primarily due to a: (i) $41.2 million increase in interest expense and finance cost, net; and (ii) $56.0 million negative impact from the depreciation and amortization, mainly due to a: (a) $26.5 million decrease in the amortization of the unfavorable lease terms, (b) $23.7 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense and (c) $5.8 million increase in amortization of deferred drydock, special survey costs and other capitalized items, partially mitigated by a: (i) $57.2 million increase in Adjusted EBITDA; and (ii) $4.1 million increase in interest income.

(1)	Available days for the fleet represent total calendar days the vessels were in Navios Partners’ possession for the relevant period after subtracting off-hire days associated with scheduled repairs, dry dockings or special surveys and ballast days relating to voyages. The shipping industry uses available days to measure the number of days in a relevant period during which a vessel is capable of generating revenues.
(2)	Operating days are 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 Navios Partners’ 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. The shipping industry uses fleet utilization to measure efficiency in finding employment for vessels and minimizing the amount of days that its vessels are off-hire for reasons other than scheduled repairs, dry dockings or special surveys.
(4)	TCE rate: TCE rate per day is defined as voyage, time charter revenues and charter-out revenues under bareboat contract (grossed up by currently applicable fixed vessel operating expenses) less voyage expenses during a period divided by the number of available days during the period. The TCE rate per day is a standard shipping industry performance measure used primarily to present the actual daily earnings generated by vessels on various types of charter contracts for the number of available days of the fleet.

Disclosure of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Common Unit, basic and diluted are “non-U.S. GAAP financial measures” and should not be used in isolation or considered substitutes for net income/ (loss), cash flow from operating activities and other operations or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

EBITDA represents net income before interest and finance costs, depreciation and amortization (including intangible accelerated amortization) and income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA excluding certain items, as described under “Earnings Highlights”. Navios Partners uses Adjusted EBITDA as a liquidity measure and reconciles EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net cash provided by operating activities, the most comparable U.S. GAAP liquidity measure. EBITDA in this document 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 decrease/ (increase) in operating liabilities; (iii) net interest cost; (iv) amortization and write-off of deferred finance costs and discount; (v) gain on sale of assets; (vi) non-cash amortization of deferred revenue and straight line effect of the containerships and tankers charters with de-escalating rates; (vii) stock-based compensation; and (viii) amortization of operating lease assets/ liabilities. Navios Partners believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are each the basis upon which liquidity can be assessed and presents useful information to investors regarding Navios Partners’ ability to service and/or incur indebtedness, pay capital expenditures, meet working capital requirements and make cash distributions. Navios Partners also believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used: (i) by 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.

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

We present Adjusted Net Income by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Our presentation of Adjusted Net Income adjusts net income for the items described above under “Earnings Highlights”. The definition of Adjusted Net Income used here may not be comparable to that used by other companies due to differences in methods of calculation. Adjusted Basic Earnings per Common Unit is defined as Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted average number of common units outstanding for each of the periods presented, basic and diluted.
