Navios Maritime Partners L.P., an international owner and operator of dry cargo and tanker vessels, reported its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025.

Angeliki Frangou, Chairwoman and Chief Executive Officer of Navios Partners stated, “I am pleased with the results for the first quarter of 2025, in which we reported revenue of $304.1 million, EBITDA of $147.6 million and net income of $41.7 million. In addition, earnings per common unit were $1.38 for the quarter.”

Angeliki Frangou continued, “The economic environment over the past month has been particularly uncertain, with the global expectations being driven by the unprecedented U.S. tariff proclamation, followed by revisions, pauses, and exceptions. In response, sentiment turned bearish, and the U.S. and other financial markets experienced extraordinary volatility, with the U.S. financial markets recovering only last week to the pre-tariff announcement levels. As the U.S. administration maneuvers toward a tariff regime furthering its policy aspirations, a faint outline is starting to emerge. It appears the potential impact on maritime transportation may be more muted than feared, although extreme outcomes are still possible.”

Common unit repurchases

As of May 1, 2025, pursuant to its previously announced common unit repurchase program, Navios Partners has repurchased 423,984 common units in 2025 and 913,939 common units since the commencement of the program, for aggregate cash consideration of approximately $16.1 million and $41.1 million, respectively. As of May 1, 2025, there were 29,270,449 common units outstanding.

Cash distribution

The Board of Directors of Navios Partners declared a cash distribution for the first quarter of 2025 of $0.05 per unit. The cash distribution will be paid on May 14, 2025 to unitholders of record as of May 9, 2025. The declaration and payment of any further dividends remain subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend on, among other things, Navios Partners’ cash requirements as measured by market opportunities and restrictions under its credit agreements and other debt obligations and such other factors as the Board of Directors may deem advisable.

No additional collateral is required under the terms of the Swap Transaction. Following the Swap Transaction, 30% of Navios Partners’ debt and bareboat liabilities are fixed at an average interest rate of 5.5%.
