Monaco, October 31, 2013 – Navios Maritime Partners L.P. (“Navios Partners”) (NYSE: NMM), an owner and operator of dry cargo vessels, today reported its financial results for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Angeliki Frangou, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Navios Partners, stated: “I am pleased with the results of this quarter. In addition to strengthening our balance sheet through equity and debt capital market activities, we achieved $35.6 million of EBITDA and $13.1 million of Net Income.”

Angeliki Frangou continued, “We are announcing a quarterly distribution of $0.44 and a quarter cent. This represents an annual distribution of $1.77 and an attractive current yield of about 11.7%. With the transformative acquisition of the five container vessels, we are not only committed to this minimum distribution through the end of 2014, but we believe that we are positioned to increase distributions in the medium term as the dry bulk market improves.”

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Cash Distribution

The Board of Directors of Navios Partners declared a cash distribution for the third quarter of 2013 of $0.4425 per unit. The cash distribution is payable on November 13, 2013 to unitholders of record on November 8, 2013.

$275 million acquisition of five container vessels with 10 year charters

Navios Partners has agreed to acquire the following five South Korean-built containers for a total consideration of $275.0 million.


Container Vessels	Year Built		TEU		Delivery		Charter rate, net
Navios TBN1		2006		6,800		Q4 2013	$	30,150
Navios TBN2		2006		6,800		Q4 2013	$	30,150
Navios TBN3		2006		6,800		Q4 2013	$	30,150
Navios TBN4		2006		6,800		Q4 2013	$	30,150
Navios TBN5		2006		6,800		Q4 2013	$	30,150

The vessels are chartered out for 10 years (with Navios Partners’ option to terminate after year seven), at $30,150 net per day per vessel. The total acquisition cost will be funded partially by the issuance of a $189.5 million add-on to the existing Term Loan B facility and available cash. The vessels are expected to generate approximately $39.5 million annual EBITDA and $386.5 million aggregate EBITDA for the 10 years of the charter period. EBITDA estimates assume expenses approximating operating cost structure under the amended Management Agreement and 360 revenue days per year.

Add-on to the Term Loan B

In October 2013, Navios Partners announced the issuance of a $189.5 million add-on to its existing Term Loan B facility. The add-on to the Term Loan B bears an interest rate of LIBOR +425 basis points and has a five year term, with a 1% amortization profile. Navios Partners intends to use the net proceeds to partially finance the acquisition of the five container vessels.

Acquisition of the Navios Joy and the Navios Harmony

On September 11, 2013, Navios Partners acquired from an unrelated third party the Navios Joy, a 181,389 dwt Japanese newbuild Capesize vessel, for a cash purchase price of $47.0 million. The Navios Joy has been chartered out to an investment grade counterparty for three years at a rate of $19,000 net per day. The charterer has been granted an option to extend the charter for two optional years, the first at $22,325 net per day and the second at $25,650 net per day. The vessel is expected to generate approximately $4.6 million annual EBITDA or $12.9 million aggregate EBITDA for the three years of the initial charter period. EBITDA estimates assume expenses approximating current operating costs and 360 revenue days per year.

On October 11, 2013, Navios Partners acquired from an unrelated third party the Navios Harmony, an 82,790 dwt 2006 Japanese-built Panamax vessel, for a cash purchase price of $17.8 million. The Navios Harmony has been chartered out to a high quality counterparty for four to six months at a rate of $14,725 net per day.

Renewal of Management Agreement Fees

Navios Partners renewed the fees under its existing Management Agreement with Navios Shipmanagement Inc. (the “Manager”), a subsidiary of Navios Maritime Holdings Inc. (“Navios Holdings”), fixing the rate for shipmanagement services of its owned fleet through December 31, 2015, excluding drydock and special survey costs that will be paid lumpsum at occurrence. The new operating costs including estimated daily drydock and special survey costs are: (a) $4,750 daily rate per Ultra-Handymax vessel; (b) $4,800 daily rate per Panamax vessel; (c) $5,700 daily rate per Capesize vessel; and (d) $7,500 daily rate per Container vessel.

Long-Term and Insured Cash Flow

Navios Partners has entered into medium to long-term time charter-out agreements for its vessels with a remaining average term of 3.8 years, providing a stable base of revenue and distributable cash flow. Navios Partners has currently contracted out 99.7% of its available days for 2013, 60.5% for 2014 and 48.2% for 2015, generating revenues of approximately $192.9 million, $183.2 million and $158.6 million, respectively. The average contractual daily charter-out rate for the fleet is $23,909, $27,844 and $30,046 for 2013, 2014 and 2015, respectively. The average daily charter-in rate for the charter-in vessels is $13,513 for 2013.

We have insured certain of our long-term charter-out contracts of the drybulk vessels for credit default occurring until the end of 2016, either through a “AA” rated European Union insurance provider up to a maximum cash payment of $120.0 million initially or through a separate agreement with Navios Holdings up to a maximum cash payment of $20.0 million.

Three month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012

Time charter and voyage revenues for the three month period ended September 30, 2013 decreased by $9.0 million or 16.1% to $46.5 million, as compared to $55.5 million for the same period in 2012. The decrease in time charter and voyage revenues was due to the decrease in time charter equivalent (“TCE”) to $23,202 for the three month period ended September 30, 2013, from $29,341 for the three month period ended September 30, 2012. The above decrease was partially mitigated by the increase in time charter and voyage revenues due to the acquisitions of the Navios Soleil on July 24, 2012, the Navios Helios on July 27, 2012 and the Navios Joy on September 11, 2013. As a result of the vessel acquisitions, available days of the fleet increased to 1,952 days for the three month period ended September 30, 2013, as compared to 1,882 days for the three month period ended September 30, 2012.

EBITDA decreased by $7.4 million to $35.6 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $43.0 million for the same period in 2012. The decrease in EBITDA was due to a $9.0 million decrease in revenue, a $1.0 million increase in time charter and voyage expenses due to increase in voyage expenses incurred, a $0.3 million increase in management fees due to the increased number of vessels and a $0.1 million increase in general and administrative expenses. The above decrease was partially mitigated by a $3.0 million increase in other income/expenses, net, attributable to upfront payments from one of our charterers during an interim suspension period.

The reserve for estimated maintenance and replacement capital expenditures for the three month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $3.5 million and $4.9 million, respectively (please see Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures in Exhibit 3).

Navios Partners generated an Operating Surplus for the three month period ended September 30, 2013 of $28.2 million, as compared to $35.6 million for the three month period ended September 30, 2012. Operating Surplus is a non-GAAP financial measure used by certain investors to assist in evaluating a partnership’s ability to make quarterly cash distributions (please see Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures in Exhibit 3).

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2013 amounted to $13.1 million compared to $22.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease in net income by $9.0 million was due to a $7.4 million decrease in EBITDA and a $1.9 million increase in interest expense and finance cost partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease in depreciation and amortization expense due to write-off of part of Navios Melodia favorable lease.

Nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012

Time charter and voyage revenues for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013 decreased by $6.6 million or 4.3% to $146.0 million, as compared to $152.6 million for the same period in 2012. The decrease in time charter and voyage revenues was due to the decrease in time charter equivalent to $24,903 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013, from $29,513 for the nine month period ended September 30, 2012. The above decrease was partially mitigated by the increase in time charter and voyage revenues due to the acquisitions of the Navios Soleil on July 24, 2012, the Navios Helios on July 27, 2012 and the Navios Joy on September 11, 2013. As a result of the vessel acquisitions, available days of the fleet increased to 5,736 days for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013, as compared to 5,088 days for the nine month period ended September 30, 2012.

EBITDA increased by $1.5 million to $117.7 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013, as compared to $116.2 million for the same period in 2012. The increase in EBITDA was due to an increase of $13.0 million in other income due to upfront payments covering hire revenues during an interim suspension period, which was partially mitigated by a decrease of $6.6 million in revenue, a $0.7 million increase in time charter and voyage expenses due to increase in voyage expenses incurred, a $2.9 million increase in management fees due to the increased number of vessels, a $0.6 million increase in general and administrative expenses and a $0.7 million increase in other expenses.

The reserve for estimated maintenance and replacement capital expenditures for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 and 2012 was $10.4 million and $13.9 million, respectively (please see Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures in Exhibit 3).

Navios Partners generated an Operating Surplus for the nine month period ended September 30, 2013 of $99.4 million, as compared to $94.7 million for the nine month period ended September 30, 2012. Operating Surplus is a non-GAAP financial measure used by certain investors to assist in evaluating a partnership’s ability to make quarterly cash distributions (please see Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures in Exhibit 3).

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 amounted to $48.9 million compared to $55.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The decrease in net income by $6.9 million was due to a $3.1 million increase in interest expense and finance cost and a $5.3 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense due to the acquisitions of the vessels and the favorable lease terms recognized in relation to the Navios Buena Ventura partially mitigated by a $1.5 million increase in EBITDA.

Fleet Employment Profile

(1)

Available days for the fleet represent total calendar days the vessels were in our possession for the relevant period after subtracting off-hire days associated with scheduled repairs, drydockings or special surveys. 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 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 efficiency in finding employment for vessels and minimizing the amount of days that its vessels are off-hire for reasons other than scheduled repairs, drydockings or special surveys.

(4)

Time Charters Equivalents (“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 charter contracts for the number of available days of the fleet.

Disclosure of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

1. EBITDA

EBITDA represents net income plus interest and finance costs plus depreciation and amortization and income taxes.

EBITDA is presented because Navios Partners believes that EBITDA is a basis upon which liquidity can be assessed and present useful information to investors regarding Navios Partners’ ability to service and/or incur indebtedness, pay capital expenditures, meet working capital requirements and pay dividends. EBITDA is a “non-GAAP financial measure” 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.

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.

2. Operating Surplus

Operating Surplus represents net income adjusted for depreciation and amortization expense, non-cash interest expense and estimated maintenance and replacement capital expenditures. Maintenance and replacement capital expenditures are those capital expenditures required to maintain over the long term the operating capacity of, or the revenue generated by, Navios Partners’ capital assets.

Operating Surplus is a quantitative measure used in the publicly-traded partnership investment community to assist in evaluating a partnership’s ability to make quarterly cash distributions. Operating Surplus is not required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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.

3. Available Cash

Available Cash generally means for each fiscal quarter, all cash on hand at the end of the quarter:

•

less the amount of cash reserves established by the Board of Directors to:

•

provide for the proper conduct of Navios Partners’ business (including reserve for maintenance and replacement capital expenditures);

•

comply with applicable law, any of Navios Partners’ debt instruments, or other agreements; or

•

provide funds for distributions to the unitholders and to the general partner for any one or more of the next four quarters;

•

plus all cash on hand on the date of determination of available cash for the quarter resulting from working capital borrowings made after the end of the quarter. Working capital borrowings are generally borrowings that are made under any revolving credit or similar agreement used solely for working capital purposes or to pay distributions to partners.

Available Cash is a quantitative measure used in the publicly-traded partnership investment community to assist in evaluating a partnership’s ability to make quarterly cash distributions. Available cash is not required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States 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.
