PIRAEUS, Greece, Feb. 18 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Navios Maritime Holdings Inc. ("Navios Holdings") (NYSE: NM), a global, vertically integrated seaborne shipping and logistics company, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2008.
"2008 was a challenging year, virtually without precedent in terms of the magnitude and ferocity of deceleration in economic activity. The world is coming to grips with the economic fallout of the credit crises, and governments are focusing on providing catalysts for restarting the global economic engine. We reacted to the many challenges by reducing our capital commitments and shoring up our balance sheet. As a result, we can finance the acquisition of all new buildings from our balance sheet. In addition, our conservative management philosophy, which includes obtaining AA+ insurance on our long-term charters and COAs, allows us to continue returning capital to our stockholders through dividend and share buy back programs." stated Angeliki Frangou Chairman and CEO of Navios Holdings.
Ms. Frangou continued, "We expect that 2009 will have economic and other challenges, but we continue to witness data that allows measured optimism for our industry."

Revenue from vessel operations for the three months ended December 31, 2008 was $186.0 million as compared to $306.6 million for the same period during 2007. The decrease in revenue is mainly attributable to the decrease in Time Charter Equivalent ("TCE") per day and the decrease in the available days of the fleet in 2008 as compared to 2007. This decrease is mainly attributable to the decrease in short term fleet available days by 1,060 days and due to the sale of seven vessels to Navios Partners in November 2007. The achieved TCE rate per day, excluding FFAs, decreased 15.1% to $36,088 per day in the fourth quarter of 2008 from $42,447 per day in the same period of 2007. The available days for the fleet decreased by 19.4% to 4,910 in the fourth quarter of 2008 from 6,094 days in the same period of 2007.
Revenue from the logistics business was approximately $27.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $1.9 million during the same period of 2007. This is due to the acquisition of Horamar Group in January 2008.
EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2008 and 2007 was $24.4 million and $214.8 million, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2008 and 2007 was $33.0 million and $47.2 million, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2008 reflects EBITDA adjusted for (i) $3.7 million of the unrealized losses on warrants acquired as part of the initial public offering of Navios Acquisition, (ii) $0.8 million of swap losses, (iii) $2.6 million of write off of doubtful accounts relating to FFA trading and (iv) a $1.5 million cancellation fee. Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2007 reflects EBITDA excluding a $167.5 million gain from sale of assets of Navios Holdings to Navios Partners. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA of $14.2 million was primarily due to a decrease in revenue by $95.2 million from $308.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 to $213.3 million for the same period in 2008, a decrease in gain from FFA trading by $6.4 million from $6.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2007 to $0.3 million loss for the same period in 2008, an increase in direct vessel expenses (excluding the amortization of deferred dry dock and special survey costs) by $0.6 million from $6.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 to $7.1 million for the same period in 2008, an increase in general and administrative expenses by $2.3 million from $8.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 to $10.6 million for the same period in 2008 (excluding $0.5 million and $0.6 million share-based compensation for the fourth quarter of 2008 and 2007, respectively) and a net decrease of $0.7 million in all other categories. This overall unfavorable variance of $105.2 million was mitigated mainly by a decrease in time charter, voyage and logistic business expenses by $85.3 million from $253.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 to $167.8 million in the same period in 2008, an increase in equity in net earnings from affiliated companies by $4.7 million and a decrease in minority interest by $1.0 million.
EBITDA from the logistics business was $4.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $0.1 million during the same period in 2007. This is due to the acquisition of Horamar group in January 2008.
Net income for each of the fourth quarters ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 was adjusted by the same one-off items which affected the Adjusted EBITDA for the respective periods. Ignoring the effect of these one-off items, adjusted net income for the fourth quarter of 2008 and 2007 was $3.0 and $29.0 million, respectively. The decrease of adjusted net income by $26.0 million was mainly affected by a $14.2 million decrease in Adjusted EBITDA, a $5.4 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense mainly due to the purchase price allocation from the acquisition of Horamar, a $4.5 million decrease in interest income, a $1.1 million increase in income taxes and a $0.8 million increase in interest expense.

Revenue from vessel operations for the year ended December 31, 2008 was $1,138.3 million as compared to $748.7 million for the same period during 2007. The increase in revenue is mainly attributable to the increase in TCE per day and the increase in the available days of the fleet in 2008 as compared to 2007. This increase is mainly attributable to the increase in short term fleet available days by 4,248 days which is mitigated by a decrease of 650 days of owned and long term fleet available days mainly due to the sale of vessels to Navios Partners. The achieved TCE rate per day, excluding FFAs, increased 47.7% from $30,843 per day for the year ended December 31, 2007 to $45,566 per day in the same period of 2008. The available days for the fleet increased by 18.7% to 22,817 days for the year ended December 31, 2008 from 19,219 days in the same period of 2007.
Revenue from the logistics business was approximately $107.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $9.7 million during the same period of 2007. This is due to the acquisition of Horamar group in January 2008.
EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 was $165.5 million and $349.9 million, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 was $150.0 million and $182.4 million, respectively. Adjusted EBITDA reflects EBITDA adjusted for (i) $27.8 million gain on sale of assets and subsidiary, (ii) $5.3 million of the unrealized losses on warrants acquired as part of the initial public offering of Navios Acquisition, (iii) $2.9 million of swap losses, (iv) $2.6 million of write off of doubtful accounts relating to FFA trading and (v) a $1.5 million cancellation fee. Adjusted EBITDA for the year ended December 31, 2007 reflects EBITDA excluding a $167.5 million gain from sale of assets of Navios Holdings to Navios Partners. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA of $32.4 million was primarily due to a decrease in gain from FFAS trading by $10.2 million from $26.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2007 to $16.2 million in the same period in 2008, an increase in time charter, voyage and logistic business expenses by $508.1 million from $558.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2007 to $1,066.2 million in the same period in 2008, an increase in general and administrative expenses by $15.3 million from $22.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2007 to $37.3 million for the same period in 2008 (excluding $2.7 million and $0.6 million share-based compensation for the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively), a $1.3 million decrease in interest income from finance leases, a $1.7 million decrease due to minority interest and a $0.4 million increase in net other expenses. This overall unfavorable variance of $537.0 million was mitigated by a $487.6 million increase in revenue, a $ 15.5 million increase in equity in net earnings from affiliated companies and a $1.5 million decrease in direct vessel expenses (excluding the amortization of deferred dry dock and special survey costs).
EBITDA from the logistics business was $25.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2008 as compared to $4.7 million during the same period in 2007. This is due to the acquisition of Horamar group in January 2008.
Net income for each of the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 was adjusted by the same one-off items which affected the Adjusted EBITDA for the respective periods. In addition, net income for the year ended December 31, 2008 was affected by a $57.2 million write-off of deferred Belgian taxes. Ignoring the effect of these one-off items, adjusted net income for the year ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 was $45.8 million and $103.5 million, respectively. The decrease in adjusted net income by $57.7 million was mainly affected by a $32.4 million decrease in Adjusted EBITDA, a $25.2 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense mainly due to the purchase price allocation from the acquisition of Horamar, a $3.1 million decrease in interest income, a $0.2 million increase in amortization of deferred dry dock and special survey costs and a $2.1 million increase in share-based compensation expense. This unfavorable variance was mitigated by a $3.3 million decrease in income taxes and a $2.0 million decrease in interest expenses.

Disclosure of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA: EBITDA represents net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Navios Holdings uses EBITDA because Navios Holdings believes that EBITDA is a basis upon which liquidity can be assessed and because Navios Holdings believes that EBITDA presents useful information to investors regarding Navios Holdings' ability to service and/or incur indebtedness. Navios Holdings also uses EBITDA (i) by prospective and current lessors as well as potential lenders to evaluate potential transactions; and (iii) to evaluate and price potential acquisition candidates.
EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of Navios Holdings' results as reported under US GAAP. Some of these limitations are: (i) EBITDA does 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, and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such capital expenditures. Because of these limitations, EBITDA should not be considered as a principal indicator of Navios Holdings' performance.
