Operating and Financial Review and Prospects

The following is a discussion of the financial condition and results of operations for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 of Navios Maritime Acquisition Corporation (referred to herein as “we,” “us” or “Navios Acquisition”). All of the financial statements have been stated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). You should read this section together with the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in Navios Acquisition’s 2016 Annual Report filed on Form 20-F with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

This Report contains forward-looking statements (as defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) concerning future events and expectations, including with respect to Navios Acquisition’s future dividends, 2017 cash flow generation and Navios Acquisition’s growth strategy and measures to implement such strategy; including expected vessel acquisitions and entering into further time charters. Words such as “may,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “hopes,” “estimates,” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements include comments regarding expected revenue and time charters. These forward-looking statements are based on the information available to, and the expectations and assumptions deemed reasonable by, Navios Acquisition at the time this filing was made. Although Navios Acquisition believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, no assurance can be given that such expectations will prove to have been correct. These statements involve known and unknown risks and are based upon a number of assumptions and estimates which are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of Navios Acquisition. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to, the creditworthiness of our charterers and the ability of our contract counterparties to fulfill their obligations to us, tanker industry trends, including charter rates and vessel values and factors affecting vessel supply and demand, the aging of our vessels and resultant increases in operation and dry docking costs, the loss of any customer or charter or vessel, our ability to repay outstanding indebtedness, to obtain additional financing and to obtain replacement charters for our vessels, in each case, at commercially acceptable rates or at all, increases in costs and expenses, including but not limited to: crew wages, insurance, provisions, port expenses, lube oil, bunkers, repairs, maintenance and general and administrative expenses, the expected cost of, and our ability to comply with, governmental regulations and maritime self-regulatory organization standards, as well as standard regulations imposed by our charterers applicable to our business, potential liability from litigation and our vessel operations, including discharge of pollutants, general domestic and international political conditions, competitive factors in the market in which Navios Acquisition operates; risks associated with operations outside the United States; and other factors listed from time to time in the Navios Acquisition’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Form 20-Fs and Form 6-Ks. Navios Acquisition expressly disclaims any obligations or undertaking to release publicly any updates or revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect any change in Navios Acquisition’s expectations with respect thereto or any change in events, conditions or circumstances on which any statement is based. Navios Acquisition makes no prediction or statement about the performance of its common stock.

Recent Developments and History

Dividend Policy

On May 12, 2017, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend in respect of the first quarter of 2017 of $0.05 per share of common stock payable on June 14, 2017 to stockholders of record as of June 7, 2017. 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 Acquisition’s 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.

Credit Facility

In May 2017, Navios Acquisition agreed to enter into a loan facility for an amount of up to $24.0 million with a commercial bank in order to refinance the existing facility of its two chemical tankers which matures in the first quarter of 2018.

Charter Policy and Industry Outlook

Our core fleet currently consists of 36 vessels, of which eight are VLCCs, 26 are product tankers and two are chemical tankers. All of our vessels are chartered-out to high-quality counterparties, including affiliates of Navig8, Shell and Mansel with an average remaining charter period of approximately one year. Many of our charters have profit sharing arrangements (see fleet table above). While all of our vessels are currently chartered-out, we intend to deploy any vessels that would become open—not chartered-out—to leading charterers in a mix of long, medium and short-term time charters, depending on the vessels’ positions, seasonality and market outlook. This chartering strategy is intended to allow us to capture increased profits during strong charter markets, while developing relatively stable cash flows from longer-term time charters. We will also seek profit sharing arrangements in our long-term time charters, to provide us with potential incremental revenue above the contracted minimum charter rates.

Using Navios Holdings’ global network of relationships and extensive experience in the maritime transportation industry, coupled with its commercial, financial and operational expertise, we plan to opportunistically grow our fleet through the timely and selective acquisition of high-quality newbuilding or secondhand vessels when we believe those acquisitions will result in attractive returns on

invested capital and increased cash flow. We also intend to engage in opportunistic dispositions where we can achieve attractive values for our vessels as we assess the market cycle. We believe our diverse and versatile fleet, combined with the experience and long- standing relationships of Navios Holdings with participants in the maritime transportation industry, position us to identify and take advantage of attractive acquisition opportunities.

Factors Affecting Navios Acquisition’s Results of Operations

We believe the principal factors that will affect our future results of operations are the economic, regulatory, political and governmental conditions that affect the shipping industry generally and that affect conditions in countries and markets in which our vessels engage in business. Other key factors that will be fundamental to our business, future financial condition and results of operations include:

•

the demand for seaborne transportation services;

•

the ability of Navios Holdings’ commercial and chartering operations to successfully employ our vessels at economically attractive rates, particularly as our fleet expands and our charters expire;

•

the effective and efficient technical management of our vessels;

•

Navios Holdings’ ability to satisfy technical, health, safety and compliance standards of major commodity traders; and

•

the strength of and growth in the number of our customer relationships, especially with major commodity traders.

In addition to the factors discussed above, we believe certain specific factors will impact our combined and consolidated results of operations. These factors include:

•

the charter hire earned by our vessels under our charters;

•

our access to capital required to acquire additional vessels and/or to implement our business strategy;

•

our ability to sell vessels at prices we deem satisfactory;

•

our level of debt and the related interest expense and amortization of principal; and

•

the level of any dividend to our stockholders.

Voyage and Time Charter

Revenues are driven primarily by the number of vessels in the fleet, the number of days during which such vessels operate and the amount of daily charter hire rates that the vessels earn under charters, which, in turn, are affected by a number of factors, including:

•

the duration of the charters;

•

the level of spot market rates at the time of charters;

•

decisions relating to vessel acquisitions and disposals;

•

the amount of time spent positioning vessels;

•

the amount of time that vessels spend in dry dock undergoing repairs and upgrades;

•

the age, condition and specifications of the vessels; and

•

the aggregate level of supply and demand in the tanker shipping industry.

Time charters are available for varying periods, ranging from a single trip (spot charter) to long-term which may be many years. In general, a long-term time charter assures the vessel owner of a consistent stream of revenue. Operating the vessel in the spot market affords the owner greater spot market opportunity, which may result in high rates when vessels are in high demand or low rates when vessel availability exceeds demand. Vessel charter rates are affected by world economics, international events, weather conditions, strikes, governmental policies, supply and demand, and many other factors that might be beyond the control of management.

The cost to maintain and operate a vessel increases with the age of the vessel. Older vessels are less fuel efficient, cost more to insure and require upgrades from time to time to comply with new regulations. As of May 16, 2017 the average age of Navios Acquisition’s owned fleet is 6.3 years. But, as such fleet ages or if Navios Acquisition expands its fleet by acquiring previously owned and older vessels the cost per vessel would be expected to rise and, assuming all else, including rates, remains constant, vessel profitability would be expected to decrease.

Navios Acquisition reports financial information and evaluates its operations by charter revenues. Navios Acquisition does not use discrete financial information to evaluate operating results for each type of charter. As a result, management reviews operating results solely by revenue per day and operating results of the fleet and thus Navios Acquisition has determined that it operates under one reportable segment.

Set forth below are selected historical and statistical data for Navios Acquisition for each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016 that the Company believes may be useful in better understanding the Company’s financial position and results of operations.

Navios Acquisition believes that the important measures for analyzing trends in its results of operations consist of the following:

(1 )

Available days: Available days for the fleet are total calendar days the vessels were in Navios Acquisition’s possession for the relevant period after subtracting off-hire days associated with major repairs, drydocking 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 : 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: Fleet utilization is the percentage of time that Navios Acquisition’s 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 a company’s efficiency in finding suitable employment for its 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: Time Charter Equivalent Rate per day is 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 per day is a standard shipping industry performance measure used primarily to present the actual daily earnings generated by vessels of various types of charter contracts for the number of available days of the fleet.

Revenue: Revenue for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 decreased by $15.9 million or 19.8% to $64.5 million, as compared to $80.4 million for the same period in 2016. The decrease was mainly attributable to the: (i) decrease in the market rates during the first quarter ended March 31, 2017, as compared to the same period in 2016; and (ii) decrease in revenue by $3.8 million due to the sale of one MR2 product tanker in January 2016 and two chemical tankers in each of October and November 2016. Available days of the fleet decreased to 3,207 days for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared to 3,477 days for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The TCE Rate decreased to $19,475 for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, from $22,722 for the three month period ended March 31, 2016.

Time charter and voyage expenses: Time charter and voyage expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 increased by $1.8 million to $3.2 million, as compared to $1.4 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The increase was attributable to a (i) $1.2 million backstop commitment to Navios Midstream; and (ii) $0.7 million increase in bunkers and other voyage expenses; partially mitigated by a $0.1 million decrease in broker commission costs.

Direct vessel expenses: Direct vessel expenses, comprised of the amortization of dry dock and special survey costs, of certain vessels of our fleet amounted to $0.9 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared to $0.6 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2016.

Management fees: Management fees for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 decreased by $0.8 million to $23.4 million as compared to $24.2 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2016, attributable to the decrease in the number of vessels operating under Navios Acquisition’s fleet, partially mitigated by the increase in management fees in effect as of May 29, 2016, described below. Pursuant to our Management Agreement, the Manager, a wholly owned subsidiary of Navios Holdings, provided commercial and technical management services to Navios Acquisition’s vessels for a daily fee of: (a) $6,000 per MR2 product tanker and chemical tanker vessel; (b) $7,000 per LR1 product tanker vessel; and (c) $9,500 per VLCC, through May 2016. Navios Acquisition fixed the fees for commercial and technical ship management services of its fleet for two additional years from May 29, 2016 through May 2018, at a daily fee of: (a) $6,350 per MR2 product tanker and chemical tanker vessel; (b) $7,150 per LR1 product tanker vessel; and (c) $9,500 per VLCC.

Drydocking expenses are reimbursed at cost by Navios Acquisition.

General and administrative expenses: Total general and administrative expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 decreased by approximately $0.8 million to $2.8 million compared to $3.5 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2016, mainly due to (i) a $0.5 million decrease in other general and administrative expenses, including professional, fees and expenses; and (ii) a $0.3 million decrease in stock based compensation. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the expenses charged by Navios Holdings for administrative services were $2.3 million and $2.4 million, respectively. The remaining balance of $0.5 million and $1.1 million of general and administrative expenses for the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, related to legal, consulting, travel and professional fees including audit fees.

Depreciation and amortization: Depreciation and amortization for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 decreased by $0.7 million to $14.2 million compared to $14.9 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2016, due to the sale of vessels mentioned above. Depreciation of a vessel is calculated using an estimated useful life of 25 years from the date the vessel was originally delivered from the shipyard.

Interest income: Interest income for three month period ended March 31, 2017 increased by $1.5 million to $2.2 million compared to $0.7 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The increase was mainly attributable to the increase of the interest income accrued under the revolving loans granted to Navios Holdings, Navios Europe Inc. (“Navios Europe I”) and Navios Europe (II) Inc. (“Navios Europe II”).

Interest expense and finance cost: Interest expense and finance cost for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 decreased by $0.3 million to $18.8 million, as compared to $19.1 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease in the average outstanding balance of our credit facilities (other than 2021 Notes), which amounted to $440.8 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 as compared to $531.0 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2016 and was partially mitigated by the increase of the weighted average interest rate for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 to 6.41% compared to 5.99%, in the same period in 2016. As of March 31, 2017 and 2016, the outstanding balance under Navios Acquisition’s total borrowings were $1,111.1 million and $1,193.1 million, respectively.

Gain on sale of vessel: The gain on sale of vessels for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 amounted to $0 as compared to $2.3 million for the same period in 2016, due to the sale of the Nave Lucida on January 27, 2016.

Equity in net earnings of affiliated companies: Equity in net earnings of affiliated companies decreased by $2.1 million to $2.8 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, as compared to $4.9 million for the same period in 2016. The decrease mainly resulted from the decrease in equity in net earnings of Navios Midstream.

Other expense, net: Other expense, net for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 was $0.5 million. For the comparative period of 2016 other expense, net was $0.7 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary short-term liquidity needs are to fund general working capital requirements, dry docking expenditures, minimum cash balance maintenance as per our credit facility agreements and debt repayment, and other obligations from time to time, while our long-term liquidity needs primarily relate to expansion and investment capital expenditures and other maintenance capital expenditures and debt repayment. Expansion capital expenditures are primarily for the purchase or construction of vessels to the extent the expenditures increase the operating capacity of or revenue generated by our fleet, while maintenance capital expenditures primarily consist of dry docking expenditures and expenditures to replace vessels in order to maintain the operating capacity of or revenue generated by our fleet. We anticipate that our primary sources of funds for our short-term liquidity needs will be cash flows from operations, proceeds from asset sales and bank borrowings, which we believe will be sufficient to meet our existing short-term liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months.

Generally, our long-term sources of funds will be from cash from operations, long-term bank borrowings and other debt or equity financings. We expect that we will rely upon cash from operations and upon external financing sources, including bank borrowings, to fund acquisitions, expansion and investment capital expenditures and other commitments we have entered into. We cannot assure you that we will be able to secure adequate financing or obtain additional funds on favorable terms, to meet our liquidity needs.

Navios Acquisition may use funds to repurchase its outstanding capital stock and/or indebtedness from time to time. Repurchases may be made in the open market, or through privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, in compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, at prices and on terms Navios Acquisition deems appropriate and subject to its cash requirements for other purposes, compliance with the covenants under Navios Acquisition’s debt agreements, and other factors management deems relevant.

Cash provided by operating activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2016:

Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $1.5 million to $27.6 million for the period ended March 31, 2017 as compared to $26.1 million for the same period in 2016. The increase is analyzed as follows:

The net income for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 was $5.6 million compared to $23.8 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2016. In determining net cash provided by operating activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, the net income was adjusted for the effect of depreciation and amortization of $14.2 million, $0.9 million for amortization and write-off of deferred finance fees and bond premium, $0.9 million for the amortization of drydock and special survey costs and $0.3 million for equity in net earnings of affiliates, net of dividend received.

Prepaid expenses and other current assets amounted to $4.2 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 compared to $4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Accounts receivable decreased by $5.0 million from $20.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2016, to $15.9 million for the three month period March 31, 2017, due to the decrease in receivables due from charterers.

Amounts due from related parties, short-term, decreased by approximately $4.8 million from $25.0 million to $20.3 million in the three month period ended March 31, 2017, which mainly related to a decrease in payment of management fees for our vessels. Please refer to the relevant discussion below, under “Related Parties Transactions”.

Restricted cash from operating activities increased by $0.1 million from $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2016, to $1.2 million due to increase in the cash held in retention accounts for the payment of interest under our credit facilities.

Amounts due from related parties, long-term, excluding the amounts related to the Navios Holdings Credit Facility, increased by $14.7 million in the three month period ended March 31, 2017, which mainly related to payment of management fees under the terms of our Management Agreement and special survey and drydocking expenses for certain vessels of our fleet and the increase by $5.3 million of the loan granted to Navios Europe II, classified under “Cash (used in)/ provided by investing activities”. Please refer to the relevant discussion below, under “Related Party Transactions”.

Accounts payable decreased by $0.7 million to $4.2 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 from $4.9 million at December 31, 2016, due to a decrease in various payables.

Accrued expenses increased by approximately $13.3 million to $24.4 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, from $11.0 million on December 31, 2016. The increase was attributable to a $13.8 million increase in accrued interest partially mitigated by a $0.2 million decrease in accrued other expenses and a $0.2 million decrease in accrued voyage expenses.

Payment for dry dock and special survey costs incurred in the three month period ended March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $2.9 million and $3.8 million, respectively, and related to drydock and special survey costs incurred for certain vessels of the fleet.

Amounts due to related parties, short-term increased by $2.4 million from $0 for the year ended December 31, 2016 to $2.4 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017, mainly due to backstop commitments and other payables to Navios Midstream.

Deferred revenue primarily relates to cash received from charterers prior to it being earned and also includes the current portion of deferred gain on sale of the Nave Celeste and the C. Dream to Navios Midstream. Deferred revenue relating to cash received from charterers was recognized as revenue over the voyage or charter period. Deferred revenue decreased by $0.9 million to $7.6 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 from $8.5 million on December 31, 2016.

Cash (used in)/ provided by investing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 as compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2016:

The decrease was partially mitigated by $2.9 million from dividends received from affiliates.

Net cash provided by investing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2016, resulted from: (i) $18.4 million net proceeds from the sale of vessels; and (ii) $0.9 million from dividends received from affiliates.

We use EBITDA as liquidity measure and reconcile EBITDA to net cash provided by/ (used in) operating activities, the most comparable U.S. GAAP liquidity measure. EBITDA in this document is calculated as follows: net cash provided by/(used in) operating activities adding back, when applicable and as the case may be, the effect of: (i) net increase/(decrease) in operating assets; (ii) net (increase)/decrease in operating liabilities; (iii) net interest cost; (iv) amortization of deferred finance cost and other related expenses; (v) provision for losses on accounts receivable; (vi) equity in net earnings of affiliated companies, net of dividends received; (vii) payments for dry dock and special survey costs; (viii) gain/(loss) on sale of assets/subsidiaries; (ix) stock based compensation; (x) gain/(loss) on debt repayment; and (xi) impairment charges. Navios Acquisition believes that EBITDA is the basis upon which liquidity can be assessed and present useful information to investors regarding Navios Acquisition’s ability to service and/or incur indebtedness, pay capital expenditures, meet working capital requirements and pay dividends. Navios Acquisition also believes that EBITDA is 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. EBITDA has limitations as analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the analysis of Navios Acquisition’s results as reported under U.S. 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. 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 Acquisition’s performance. Furthermore, our calculation of EBITDA may not be comparable to that reported by other companies due to differences in methods of calculation.

EBITDA for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 decreased by approximately $20.4 million to $37.4 million from $57.8 million in the same period of 2016. The decrease in EBITDA was mainly due to a: (a) $15.9 million decrease in revenue; (b) $2.3 million gain from sale of vessel incurred in the three month period ended March 31, 2016; (c) $2.1 million decrease in equity in net earnings of affiliated companies; and (d) $1.8 million increase in time charter expenses; partially mitigated by a (i) $0.8 million decrease in management fees, mainly due to the sale of one MR2 product tanker in January 2016 and two chemical tankers in October and November 2016, as discussed above; (ii) $0.8 million decrease in general and administrative expenses; and (iii) $0.2 million decrease in other expense, net.

Credit Facilities

As of March 31, 2017, the Company had secured credit facilities with various banks with a total outstanding balance of $441.1 million. The purpose of the facilities was to finance the construction or acquisition of vessels or refinance existing indebtedness. All of the facilities are denominated in U.S. Dollars and bear interest based on LIBOR plus spread ranging from 230 bps to 400 bps per annum. The facilities are repayable in either semi-annual or quarterly installments, followed by balloon payments with maturities, ranging from July 2018 to October 2022. See also “Contractual obligations” below.

ABN AMRO Bank N.V.: In February 2017, the Company drew $26.7 million under this credit facility with ABN AMRO Bank N.V. which is secured with its two chemical tankers, following the full repayment of the previous financing arrangements. The facility is repayable in four equal consecutive quarterly installments of $0.7 million each, with a final balloon payment of the balance to be repaid on the last repayment date. The maturity date of the loan is in February 2018. The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 400 bps per annum. As of March 31, 2017, $26.7 million was outstanding under this facility.

In May 2017, Navios Acquisition agreed to enter into a loan facility for an amount of up to $24.0 million from a commercial bank in order to refinance the existing facility of its two chemical tankers which matures in the first quarter of 2018. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2017, the amount of $22.3 million was reclassified from caption “Current portion of long-term debt, net of deferred finance cost” under current liability to “Long term debt, net of current portion, premium and net of deferred finance cost” under non-current liability. The facility will be repayable in 17 equal consecutive quarterly installments of $0.6 million each, with a final balloon payment of the balance to be repaid on the last repayment date.

It is an event of default under the credit facilities if such covenants are not complied with, including the loan to value ratios for which the Company may provide sufficient additional security to prevent such an event.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company was in compliance with the covenants in each of its credit facilities.

Amounts drawn under the facilities are secured by first preferred mortgages on Navios Acquisition’s vessels and other collateral and are guaranteed by each vessel-owning subsidiary. The credit facilities contain a number of restrictive covenants that prohibit or limit Navios Acquisition from, among other things: incurring or guaranteeing indebtedness; entering into affiliate transactions; changing the flag, class, management or ownership of Navios Acquisition’s vessels; changing the commercial and technical management of Navios Acquisition’s vessels; selling Navios Acquisition’s vessels; and subordinating the obligations under each credit facility to any general and administrative costs relating to the vessels, including the fixed daily fee payable under the management agreement. The credit facilities also require Navios Acquisition to comply with the ISM Code and ISPS Code and to maintain valid safety management certificates and documents of compliance at all times.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements – Legal Proceedings

Charter hire payments to third parties for chartered-in vessels are treated as operating leases for accounting purposes.

The Company is involved in various disputes and arbitration proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Provisions have been recognized in the financial statements for all such proceedings where the Company believes that a liability may be probable, and for which the amounts are reasonably estimable, based upon facts known at the date of the financial statements were prepared. In the opinion of the management, the ultimate disposition of these matters individually and in aggregate will not materially affect the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Balance due from related parties (excluding Navios Europe I, Navios Europe II and Navios Holdings Credit Facility): Balance due from related parties as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $33.6 million and $25.8 million, respectively, and included the short-term and long-term amounts mainly due from Navios Holdings. The balances mainly consisted of administrative expenses and special survey and dry docking expenses for certain vessels of our fleet, as well as management fees, in accordance with the Management Agreement.

Balance due to related parties, short-term: Amounts due to related parties, short-term as of March 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was $2.4 million and $0, respectively, and mainly consisted of backstop commitments and other payables to Navios Midstream.

Omnibus Agreements

Acquisition Omnibus Agreement: Navios Acquisition entered into an omnibus agreement (the “Acquisition Omnibus Agreement”) with Navios Holdings and Navios Partners in connection with the closing of Navios Acquisition’s initial vessel acquisition, pursuant to which, among other things, Navios Holdings and Navios Partners agreed not to acquire, charter-in or own liquid shipment vessels, except for container vessels and vessels that are primarily employed in operations in South America without the consent of an independent committee of Navios Acquisition. In addition, Navios Acquisition, under the Acquisition Omnibus Agreement, agreed to cause its subsidiaries not to acquire, own, operate or charter-in drybulk carriers under specific exceptions. Under the Acquisition Omnibus Agreement, Navios Acquisition and its subsidiaries grant to Navios Holdings and Navios Partners a right of first offer on any proposed sale, transfer or other disposition of any of its drybulk carriers and related charters owned or acquired by Navios Acquisition. Likewise, Navios Holdings and Navios Partners agreed to grant a similar right of first offer to Navios Acquisition for any liquid shipment vessels they might own. These rights of first offer will not apply to a: (a) sale, transfer or other disposition of vessels between any affiliated subsidiaries, or pursuant to the existing terms of any charter or other agreement with a counterparty; or (b) merger with or into, or sale of substantially all of the assets to, an unaffiliated third party.

Midstream Omnibus Agreement: Navios Acquisition entered into an omnibus agreement (the “Midstream Omnibus Agreement”), with Navios Midstream, Navios Holdings and Navios Partners in connection with the Navios Midstream IPO, pursuant to which Navios Acquisition, Navios Midstream, Navios Holdings, Navios Partners and their controlled affiliates generally have agreed not to acquire or own any VLCCs, crude oil tankers, refined petroleum product tankers, LPG tankers or chemical tankers under time charters of five or more years without the consent of the Navios Midstream General Partner. The Midstream Omnibus Agreement contains significant exceptions that will allow Navios Acquisition, Navios Holdings, Navios Partners or any of their controlled affiliates to compete with Navios Midstream under specified circumstances.

Under the Midstream Omnibus Agreement, Navios Midstream and its subsidiaries will grant to Navios Acquisition a right of first offer on any proposed sale, transfer or other disposition of any of its VLCCs or any crude oil tankers, refined petroleum product tankers, LPG tankers or chemical tankers and related charters owned or acquired by Navios Midstream. Likewise, Navios Acquisition will agree (and will cause its subsidiaries to agree) to grant a similar right of first offer to Navios Midstream for any of the VLCCs, crude oil tankers, refined petroleum product tankers, LPG tankers or chemical tankers under charter for five or more years it might own. These rights of first offer will not apply to a: (a) sale, transfer or other disposition of vessels between any affiliated subsidiaries, or pursuant to the terms of any charter or other agreement with a charter party, or (b) merger with or into, or sale of substantially all of the assets to, an unaffiliated third-party.

Backstop Agreement: On November 18, 2014, Navios Acquisition entered into backstop agreements with Navios Midstream. In accordance with the terms of the backstop agreements, Navios Acquisition has provided backstop commitments for a two-year period as of the redelivery of each of the Nave Celeste, the Shinyo Ocean and the Shinyo Kannika from their original charters, at a net rate of $35,000, $38,400 and $38,025, respectively. Navios Midstream has currently entered into new charter contracts for the above vessels with third parties upon their redelivery which occurred in the first quarter of 2017. Those contracts provide for index linked charter rates or pool earnings as the case may be. Backstop commitments are triggered if the actual rates achieved are below the backstop rates. Backstop commitment incurred in the three month period ended March 31, 2017 was $1.2 million ($0 for the respective period in 2016).

Navios Midstream General Partner Option Agreement with Navios Holdings: Navios Acquisition entered into an option agreement, dated November 18, 2014, with Navios Holdings under which Navios Acquisition grants Navios Holdings the option to acquire any or all of the outstanding membership interests in Navios Midstream General Partner and all of the incentive distribution rights in Navios Midstream representing the right to receive an increasing percentage of the quarterly distributions when certain conditions are met. The option shall expire on November 18, 2024. Any such exercise shall relate to not less than twenty-five percent of the option interest and the purchase price for the acquisition of all or part of the option interest shall be an amount equal to its fair market value.

Option Vessels: Navios Midstream holds purchase options for three VLCCs of Navios Acquisition, the Nave Buena Suerte, the Nave Neutrino and the Nave Electron, which expire on November 18, 2018. The purchase options pursuant to the extended period do not include any backstop commitments from Navios Acquisition.

Sale of C. Dream and Nave Celeste: On June 18, 2015, Navios Acquisition sold the vessel-owning subsidiaries of the C. Dream and the Nave Celeste to Navios Midstream for a sale price of $100.0 million in total. Out of the $100.0 million purchase price, $73.0 million was paid in cash and the remaining amount was paid through the issuance of 1,592,920 subordinated Series A Units of Navios Midstream. In conjunction with the transaction, Navios Midstream also issued 32,509 general partner units to the General Partner, in order for the General Partner to maintain its 2.0% general partnership interest, for $0.6 million. Please see Note 11- “Transactions with related parties”.

Participation in offerings of affiliates: On July 29, 2016, Navios Midstream launched a continuous offering sales program of its common units for an aggregate offering of up to $25.0 million.

On September 30, 2016, December 30, 2016 and February 16, 2017, Navios Acquisition entered into securities purchase agreements with Navios Midstream pursuant to which Navios Acquisition made an investment in Navios Midstream by purchasing 5,655, 1,143 and 6,446 general partnership interests, respectively, in order to maintain its 2.0% partnership interest in Navios Midstream in light of such continuous offering sales program. The aggregate consideration for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 and the year ended December 31, 2016 was $0.1 million, respectively.

The Company determined, under the equity method, that the issuance of common units of Navios Midstream qualified as a sale of shares by the investee. As a result, a net loss of $0.05 million was recognized in “Equity in net earnings of affiliated companies” for the three month period ended March 31, 2017.

Balance due from Navios Europe I: Balance due from Navios Europe I as of March 31, 2017 amounted to $12.8 million (December 31, 2016: $12.3 million) which included the Navios Revolving Loans I of $7.1 million (December 31, 2016: $7.1 million), the non-current amount of $2.5 million (December 31, 2016: $2.2 million) related to the accrued interest income earned under the Navios Term Loans I under the caption “Due from related parties, long-term” and the accrued interest income earned under the Navios Revolving Loans I of 3.3 million (December 31, 2016: $2.9 million) under the caption “Due from related parties, short-term.”

The Navios Revolving Loans I and the Navios Term Loans I earn interest and an annual preferred return, respectively, at 12.7% per annum, on a quarterly compounding basis and are repaid from free cash flow (as defined in the loan agreement) to the fullest extent possible at the end of each quarter. There are no covenant requirements or stated maturity dates. As of March 31, 2017, the amount undrawn under the Navios Revolving Loans I was $4.8 million of which Navios Acquisition may be required to fund an amount ranging from $0 to $4.8 million.

Balance due from Navios Europe II: Balance due from Navios Europe II as of March 31, 2017 amounted to $22.7 million (December 31, 2016: $16.4 million) which included the Navios Revolving Loans II of $16.9 million (December 31, 2016: $11.6 million), the non-current amount of $2.4 million (December 31, 2016: $2.1 million) related to the accrued interest income earned under the Navios Term Loans II under the caption “Due from related parties, long-term” and the accrued interest income earned under the Navios Revolving Loans II of $3.4 million (December 31, 2016: $2.7 million) under the caption “Due from related parties, short-term.”

The Navios Revolving Loans II and the Navios Term Loans II earn interest and an annual preferred return, respectively, at 18% per annum, on a quarterly compounding basis and are repaid from free cash flow (as defined in the loan agreement) to the fullest extent possible at the end of each quarter. There are no covenant requirements or stated maturity dates. As of March 31, 2017, the amount undrawn under the Navios Revolving Loans II was $21.5 million, of which Navios Acquisition may be required to fund an amount ranging from $0 to $21.5 million.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks

Foreign Exchange Risk

Our functional and reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. We engage in worldwide commerce with a variety of entities. Although our operations may expose us to certain levels of foreign currency risk, our transactions are predominantly U.S. dollar denominated. Transactions in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the date of each transaction. Differences in exchange rates during the period between the date a transaction denominated in a foreign currency is consummated and the date on which it is either settled or translated, are recognized in the statements of income.

Interest Rate Risk

As of March 31, 2017, Navios Acquisition had a total of $1,111.1 million in long-term and short-term indebtedness. Borrowings under our credit facilities bear interest at rates based on a premium over U.S. $ LIBOR except for the interest rate on the Existing Notes and the Additional Notes which is fixed. Therefore, we are exposed to the risk that our interest expense may increase if interest rates rise. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, we paid interest on our outstanding debt at a weighted average interest rate of 6.4%. A 1% increase in LIBOR would have increased our interest expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2017 by $1.1 million.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments, which potentially subject us to significant concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of trade accounts receivable. We closely monitor our exposure to customers for credit risk. We have policies in place to ensure that we trade with customers with an appropriate credit history. For the three month period ended March 31, 2017, Navig8, Shell and Mansel accounted for 30.6%, 14.5% and 12.5%, respectively, of Navios Acquisition’s revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2016, these three customers accounted for 33.0%, 20.0% and 14.7%, respectively, of Navios Acquisition’s revenue.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash deposits and cash equivalents in excess of amounts covered by government-provided insurance are exposed to loss in the event of non-performance by financial institutions. Navios Acquisition does maintain cash deposits and equivalents in excess of government-provided insurance limits. Navios Acquisition also minimizes exposure to credit risk by dealing with a diversified group of major financial institutions.

Inflation

Inflation has had a minimal impact on vessel operating expenses and general and administrative expenses. Our management does not consider inflation to be a significant risk to expenses in the current and foreseeable economic environment.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2017-01, “Business Combinations” to clarify the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisition (or disposals) of assets or businesses. Under current implementation guidance the existence of an integrated set of acquired activities (inputs and processes that generate outputs) constitutes an acquisition of business. This ASU provides a screen to determine when a set of assets and activities does not constitute a business. The screen requires that when substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. This update is effective for public entities with reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years. The amendments of this ASU should be applied prospectively on or after the effective date. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period (i) for transactions for which the acquisition date occurs before the issuance date or effective date of the ASU, only when the transaction has not been reported in financial statements that have been issued or made available for issuance and (ii) for transactions in which a subsidiary is deconsolidated or a group of assets is derecognized that occur before the issuance date or effective date of the amendments, only when the transaction has not been reported in financial statements that have been issued or made available for issuance. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

future period. In cases where a registrant cannot reasonably estimate the impact of the adoption, then additional qualitative disclosures should be considered. The ASU incorporates these SEC staff views into ASC 250 and adds references to that guidance in the transition paragraphs of each of the three new standards. The adoption of this new accounting guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash”. This Update addresses the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash on the statement of cash flows under Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows. The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments”. This update addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The amendments are effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”. ASU 2016-02 will apply to both types of leases — capital (or finance) leases and operating leases. According to the new Accounting Standard, lessees will be required to recognize assets and liabilities on the balance sheet for the rights and obligations created by all leases with terms of more than 12 months. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and footnotes disclosures.

In January 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-01, “Financial Instruments—Overall (Subtopic 825-10)—Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. The amendments in this ASU require an entity (i) to measure equity investments (except those accounted for under the equity method of accounting or those that result in consolidation of the investee) at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income; (ii) to perform a qualitative assessment to identify impairment in equity investments without readily determinable fair values; (iii) to present separately in other comprehensive income the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk; and (iv) to present separately financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (that is, securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet. The amendments also eliminate the requirement, for public business entities, to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet and clarify that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets. For public business entities, ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this new standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” clarifying the method used to determine the timing and requirements for revenue recognition on the statements of income. Under the new standard, an entity must identify the performance obligations in a contract, the transaction price and allocate the price to specific performance obligations to recognize the revenue when the obligation is completed. The amendments in this update also require disclosure of sufficient information to allow users to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flow arising from contracts. The new accounting guidance was originally effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which deferred the effective date of ASU 2014-09 for all entities by one year. The standard will be effective for public entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and interim periods therein. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

Navios Acquisition’s interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires Navios Acquisition to make estimates in the application of our accounting policies based on the best assumptions, judgments and opinions of management. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Critical accounting policies are those that reflect significant judgments or uncertainties, and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. Other than as described below, all significant accounting policies are as described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2016 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 5, 2017.

Investments in Equity Securities: Navios Acquisition evaluates its investment in Navios Midstream, Navios Europe I and Navios Europe II for other than temporary impairment (“OTTI”) on a quarterly basis. Consideration is given to (i) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than the carrying value, (ii) the financial condition and near-term prospects of Navios Midstream, Navios Europe I and Navios Europe II, and (iii) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in Navios Midstream, Navios Europe I and Navios Europe II for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

As of March 31, 2017, the aggregate carrying value of our investment in Navios Midstream was $181.7 million or $14.41 per unit, which represents our total ownership interest in the Partnership of 59.0%. The estimated market value of this investment is determined with reference to the quoted price of the common units. Due to the decline in the quoted price of the common units since the fourth quarter of 2015, the fair value of our investments in Navios Midstream has been below its carrying value for a period over twelve months, indicating a potential impairment.

As of March 31, 2017, the quoted unit price was $12.04, subsequently increasing to a high of $12.15 and low of $10.58. In relation to our investment we are required to recognize an impairment loss where it is determined to be “other-than-temporary.” However, we believe the volatility and the decline in the unit price is temporary. This is on the basis that the decline is being driven by industry trends. Specifically, the decline in oil prices, which has resulted in a general negative sentiment towards the shipping stocks and its status as a Master Limited Partnership (“MLP”) has suffered in response to cuts in distributions by other MLPs in the sector. We believe this is not a reflection of the Navios Midstream’s profitability, strong financial position or its ability to maintain distributions given the short duration and limited severity of the decline in unit price, the historical trading levels of the units since the inception of Navios Midstream and the fact that Navios Midstream’s fleet currently operates under medium and long-term time charters with fixed charter rates, which has historically contributed to secure and stable operating cash flows. Thus we have assessed these conditions as being temporary and no adjustment to the carrying value of our investment was deemed necessary as of March 31, 2017 as we have both the ability and intent to hold our investment in Navios Midstream.

However, should these conditions continue to persist for an extended period of time, a conclusion could be reached in the future that an impairment exists that is “other-than- temporary”, at which time we would write down the carrying amount of our investment to its estimated fair value which may have a material adverse impact on our results of operations in the period recognized.

NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Navios Maritime Acquisition Corporation (“Navios Acquisition” or the “Company”) (NYSE: NNA) owns a large fleet of modern crude oil, refined petroleum product and chemical tankers providing worldwide marine transportation services. The Company’s strategy is to charter its vessels to international oil companies, refiners and large vessel operators under long, medium and short-term charters. The Company is committed to providing quality transportation services and developing and maintaining long-term relationships with its customers. The operations of Navios Acquisition are managed by a subsidiary of Navios Maritime Holdings Inc. (“Navios Holdings”).

Navios Acquisition was incorporated in the Republic of Marshall Islands on March 14, 2008. On July 1, 2008, Navios Acquisition completed its initial public offering, or its “IPO”. On May 28, 2010, Navios Acquisition consummated the vessel acquisitions which constituted its initial business combination. Following such transaction, Navios Acquisition commenced its operations as an operating company.

In November 2014, Navios Maritime Midstream Partners L.P. (“Navios Midstream”), a company formed as a subsidiary of Navios Acquisition, completed an IPO of its units in the United States and is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “NAP”.

As of March 31, 2017, Navios Acquisition owned a 59.0% limited partner interest in Navios Midstream, which included a 2.0% general partner interest.

As of March 31, 2017, Navios Holdings had 43.4% of the voting power and 46.1% of the economic interest in Navios Acquisition.

As of March 31, 2017, Navios Acquisition had outstanding: 150,482,990 shares of common stock and 1,000 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock held by Navios Holdings.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(a) Basis of presentation: The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements are unaudited, but, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments for a fair statement of Navios Acquisition’s consolidated balance sheets, statement of changes in equity, statements of income and cash flows for the periods presented. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The footnotes are condensed as permitted by the requirements for interim financial statements and accordingly, do not include information and disclosures required under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. All such adjustments are deemed to be of a normal recurring nature. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes included in Navios Acquisition’s 2016 Annual Report filed on Form 20-F with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

(b) Principles of consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Navios Acquisition, a Marshall Islands corporation, and its majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated statements.

The Company also consolidates entities that are determined to be variable interest entities (“VIEs”) as defined in the accounting guidance, if it determines that it is the primary beneficiary. A variable interest entity is defined as a legal entity where either (a) equity interest holders as a group lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest, including decision making ability and an interest in the entity’s residual risks and rewards, or (b) the equity holders have not provided sufficient equity investment to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or (c) the voting rights of some investors are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the expected losses of the entity, their rights to receive the expected residual returns of the entity, or both and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights.

Based on internal forecasts and projections that take into account reasonably possible changes in our trading performance, management believes that the Company has adequate financial resources to continue in operation and meet its financial commitments, including but not limited to capital expenditures and debt service obligations, for a period of at least twelve months from the date of issuance of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the Company continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

(c) Equity method investments: Affiliates are entities over which the Company generally has between 20% and 50% of the voting

F-6

NAVIOS MARITIME ACQUISITION CORPORATION

UNAUDITED CONDENSED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Expressed in thousands of U.S. Dollars except share and per share data)

rights, or over which the Company has significant influence, but it does not exercise control. Investments in these entities are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the Company records an investment in the stock of an affiliate at cost, and adjusts the carrying amount for its share of the earnings or losses of the affiliate subsequent to the date of investment and reports the recognized earnings or losses in income. Dividends received from an affiliate reduce the carrying amount of the investment. The Company recognizes gains and losses in earnings for the issuance of shares by its affiliates, provided that the issuance of such shares qualifies as a sale of such shares. When the Company’s share of losses in an affiliate equals or exceeds its interest in the affiliate, the Company does not recognize further losses, unless the Company has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the affiliate.

Navios Acquisition evaluates its equity method investments, for other than temporary impairment, on a quarterly basis. Consideration is given to (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than the carrying value, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects and (3) the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investments for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

(d) Subsidiaries: Subsidiaries are those entities in which the Company has an interest of more than one half of the voting rights and/or otherwise has power to govern the financial and operating policies. The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries if deemed to be a business combination. The cost of an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given up, shares issued or liabilities undertaken at the date of acquisition. The excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill.

(e) Use of estimates: The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. On an on-going basis, management evaluates the estimates and judgments, including those related to uncompleted voyages, future dry dock dates, the carrying value of investments in affiliates, the selection of useful lives for tangible assets and scrap value, expected future cash flows from long-lived assets to support impairment tests, provisions necessary for accounts receivable, provisions for legal disputes and contingencies. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions and/or conditions.

(f) Vessels, net : Vessels are stated at historical cost, which consists of the contract price, delivery and acquisition expenses and capitalized interest costs while under construction. Vessels acquired in an asset acquisition or in a business combination are recorded at fair value. Subsequent expenditures for major improvements and upgrading are capitalized, provided they appreciably extend the life, increase the earning capacity or improve the efficiency or safety of the vessels. Expenditures for routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

Depreciation is computed using the straight line method over the useful life of the vessels, after considering the estimated residual value. Management estimates the residual values of our tanker vessels based on a scrap value of $360 per lightweight ton, as we believe these levels are common in the shipping industry. Residual values are periodically reviewed and revised to recognize changes in conditions, new regulations or other reasons. Revisions of residual values affect the depreciable amount of the vessels and affect depreciation expense in the period of the revision and future periods.

Management estimates the useful life of our vessels to be 25 years from the vessel’s original construction. However, when regulations place limitations over the ability of a vessel to trade on a worldwide basis, its useful life is re-estimated to end at the date such regulations become effective.

UNAUDITED CONDENSED NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Expressed in thousands of U.S. Dollars except share and per share data)

(g) Vessels held for sale: Vessels are classified as “Vessels held for sale” when all of the following criteria are met: management has committed to a plan to sell the vessel; the vessel is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of vessels; an active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the plan to sell the vessel have been initiated; the sale of the vessel is probable and transfer of the vessel is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year; the asset is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value and actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. Vessels classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. These vessels are not depreciated once they meet the criteria to be held for sale.

(h) Impairment of long-lived asset group: Vessels, other fixed assets and other long-lived assets held and used by Navios Acquisition are reviewed periodically for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a particular asset may not be fully recoverable. Navios Acquisition’s management evaluates the carrying amounts and periods over which long-lived assets are depreciated to determine if events or changes in circumstances have occurred that would require modification to their carrying values or useful lives. In evaluating useful lives and carrying values of long-lived assets, certain indicators of potential impairment are reviewed such as, undiscounted projected operating cash flows, vessel sales and purchases, business plans and overall market conditions.

Undiscounted projected net operating cash flows are determined for each asset group (consisting of the individual vessel and the intangible with respect to the time charter agreement to that vessel) and compared to the vessel carrying value and related carrying value of the intangible with respect to the time charter agreement attached to that vessel or the carrying value of deposits for new buildings, if any. Within the shipping industry, vessels are often bought and sold with a charter attached. The value of the charter may be favorable or unfavorable when comparing the charter rate to the then current market rates. The loss recognized either on impairment (or on disposition) will reflect the excess of carrying value over fair value (selling price) for the vessel individual asset group.

(i) Revenue Recognition: Revenue is recorded when services are rendered, under a signed charter agreement or other evidence of an arrangement, the price is fixed or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. Revenue is generated from the voyage charter and the time charter of vessels.

Voyage revenues for the transportation of cargo are recognized ratably over the estimated relative transit time of each voyage. A voyage is deemed to commence when a vessel is available for loading and is deemed to end upon the completion of the discharge of the current cargo. Estimated losses on voyages are provided for in full at the time such losses become evident. Under a voyage charter, a vessel is provided for the transportation of specific goods between specific ports in return for payment of an agreed upon freight per ton of cargo.

Revenues from time chartering of vessels are accounted for as operating leases and are thus recognized on a straight-line basis as the average revenue over the rental periods of such charter agreements, as service is performed. A time charter involves placing a vessel at the charterers’ disposal for a period of time during which the charterer uses the vessel in return for the payment of a specified daily hire rate. Under time charters, operating costs such as for crews, maintenance and insurance are typically paid by the owner of the vessel.

Profit sharing revenues are calculated at an agreed percentage of the excess of the charterer’s average daily income (calculated on a quarterly or half-yearly basis) over an agreed amount and accounted for on an accrual basis based on provisional amounts and for those contracts that provisional accruals cannot be made due to the nature of the profit share elements, these are accounted for on the actual cash settlement.

Revenues are recorded net of address commissions. Address commissions represent a discount provided directly to the charterers based on a fixed percentage of the agreed upon charter or freight rate. Since address commissions represent a discount (sales incentive) on services rendered by the Company and no identifiable benefit is received in exchange for the consideration provided to the charterer, these commissions are presented as a reduction of revenue.

Pooling arrangements: For vessels operating in pooling arrangements, the Company earns a portion of total revenues generated by the pool, net of expenses incurred by the pool. The amount allocated to each pool participant vessel, including the Company’s vessels, is determined in accordance with an agreed-upon formula, which is determined by points awarded to each vessel in the pool based on the vessel’s age, design and other performance characteristics. Revenue under pooling arrangements is accounted for on the accrual basis and is recognized when an agreement with the pool exists, price is fixed, service is provided and the collectability is reasonably assured.

The allocation of such net revenue may be subject to future adjustments by the pool however, such changes are not expected to be material.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-03 “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (Topic 250) and Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323).” The ASU amends the Codification for SEC staff announcements made at recent Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) meetings. The SEC guidance that specifically relates to our Consolidated Financial Statements was from the September 2016 meeting, where the SEC staff expressed their expectations about the extent of disclosures registrants should make about the effects of the new FASB guidance as well as any amendments issued prior to adoption, on revenue (ASU 2014-09), leases (ASU 2016-02) and credit losses on financial instruments (ASU 2016-13) in accordance with SAB Topic 11.M. Registrants are required to disclose the effect that recently issued accounting standards will have on their financial statements when adopted in a future period. In cases where a registrant cannot reasonably estimate the impact of the adoption, then additional qualitative disclosures should be considered. The ASU incorporates these SEC staff views into ASC 250 and adds references to that guidance in the transition paragraphs of each of the three new standards. The adoption of this new accounting guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

without readily determinable fair values; (iii) to present separately in other comprehensive income the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk; and (iv) to present separately financial assets and financial liabilities by measurement category and form of financial asset (that is, securities or loans and receivables) on the balance sheet. The amendments also eliminate the requirement, for public business entities, to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet and clarify that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to available-for-sale securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets. For public business entities, ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this new standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

NOTE 3: CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Cash and cash equivalents consisted of the following:


	March 31, 2017		December 31, 2016
Cash on hand and at banks	$	41,735	$	39,286
Short-term deposits		17,238		10,006
Total cash and cash equivalents	$	58,973	$	49,292

Short-term deposits and highly liquid funds relate to amounts held in banks for general financing purposes and represent deposits with an original maturity of less than three months.

Cash deposits and cash equivalents in excess of amounts covered by government-provided insurance are exposed to loss in the event of non-performance by financial institutions. The Company does maintain cash deposits and equivalents in excess of government-provided insurance limits. The Company also minimizes exposure to credit risk by dealing with a diversified group of major financial institutions.

In restricted cash there is an amount of $13,159 as of March 31, 2017 and $7,366 as of December 31, 2016 held in retention accounts in order to service debt and interest payments, as required by certain of Navios Acquisition’s credit facilities.

NOTE 6: INVESTMENT IN AFFILIATES

Navios Europe I

On October 9, 2013, Navios Holdings, Navios Acquisition and Navios Maritime Partners L.P. (“Navios Partners”) established Navios Europe I and had economic interests of 47.5%, 47.5% and 5.0%, respectively. On December 18, 2013, Navios Europe I acquired ten vessels for aggregate consideration consisting of (i) cash which was funded with the proceeds of senior loan facility (the “Senior Loan I”) and loans aggregating $10,000 from Navios Holdings, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners (collectively, the “Navios Term Loans I”) and (ii) the assumption of a junior participating loan facility (the “Junior Loan I”). In addition to the Navios Term Loans I, Navios Holdings, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners will also make available to Navios Europe I revolving loans up to $24,100 to fund working capital requirements (collectively, the “Navios Revolving Loans I”). Effective November 2014 and as of March 31, 2017, Navios Holdings, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners have voting interest of 50%, 50% and 0%, respectively.

On an ongoing basis, Navios Europe I is required to distribute cash flows (after payment of operating expenses, amounts due pursuant to the terms of the Senior Loan I and repayments of the Navios Revolving Loans I) according to a defined waterfall calculation.

The Navios Term Loans I will be repaid from the future sale of vessels owned by Navios Europe I and is deemed to be the initial investment by Navios Acquisition. Navios Acquisition evaluated its investment in Navios Europe I under ASC 810 and concluded that Navios Europe I is a VIE and that the Company is not the party most closely associated with Navios Europe I and, accordingly, is not the primary beneficiary of Navios Europe I.

Navios Midstream

On October 13, 2014, the Company formed in the Marshall Islands a wholly-owned subsidiary, Navios Midstream. The purpose of Navios Midstream is to own, operate and acquire crude oil tankers, refined petroleum product tankers, chemical tankers and liquefied petroleum gas tankers under long-term employment contracts.

On the same day, the Company formed in the Marshall Islands a limited liability company, Navios Maritime Midstream Partners GP LLC (the “Navios Midstream General Partner”) a wholly-owned subsidiary to act as the general partner of Navios Midstream.

Navios Midstream completed an IPO of its units on November 18, 2014 and is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “NAP.”

In connection with the IPO of Navios Midstream in November 2014, Navios Acquisition sold all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of four of Navios Acquisition’s vessel-owning subsidiaries (Shinyo Ocean Limited, Shinyo Kannika Limited, Shinyo Kieran Limited and Shinyo Saowalak Limited) in exchange for: (i) all of the estimated net cash proceeds from the IPO amounting to $110,403; (ii) $104,451 of the $126,000 borrowings under Navios Midstream’s credit facility; (iii) 9,342,692 subordinated units and 1,242,692 common units; and (iv) 381,334 general partner units, representing a 2.0% general partner interest in Navios Midstream, and all of the incentive distribution rights in Navios Midstream to the Navios Midstream General Partner.

The Company evaluated its investment in Navios Midstream under ASC 810 and concluded that Navios Midstream is not a “VIE”.The Company further evaluated the power to control the board of directors of Navios Midstream under the voting interest model. As of the IPO date, Navios Acquisition, as the general partner, delegated all its powers to the board of directors of Navios Midstream and does not have the right to remove or replace the elected directors from the board of directors. Elected directors were appointed by the general partner, but as of the IPO date are deemed to be elected directors. The elected directors represent the majority of the board of directors of Midstream and therefore, the Company concluded that it does not hold a controlling financial interest in Navios Midstream but concluded that it does maintain significant influence and deconsolidated the vessels sold as of the IPO date.

Following the deconsolidation of Navios Midstream, the Company accounts for all of its interest in the general partner and in each of the common and subordinated units under the equity method of accounting.

In connection with the sale of the Nave Celeste and the C. Dream to Navios Midstream in June 2015, Navios Acquisition received 1,592,920 Subordinated Series A Units of Navios Midstream, as part of the sales price. In conjunction with the transaction, Navios Midstream also issued 32,509 general partner units to the General Partner for $551, in order for the General Partner to maintain its 2.0% general partnership interest. The Company analyzed its investment in the subordinated Series A units and concluded that this is to be accounted for under the equity method on the basis that the Company has significant influence over Navios Midstream. The Company’s investment in the subordinated Series A units was fair valued at $17.02 per unit, in total $27,111 on the date of the sale of the vessels to Navios Midstream.

On July 29, 2016, Navios Midstream launched a continuous offering sales program of its common units for an aggregate offering of up to $25,000.

On September 30, 2016, December 30, 2016 and February 16, 2017 Navios Acquisition entered into securities purchase agreements with Navios Midstream pursuant to which Navios Acquisition made an investment in Navios Midstream by purchasing 5,655, 1,143 and 6,446 general partnership interests, respectively, in order to maintain its 2.0% partnership interest in Navios Midstream in light of such continuous offering sales program, for a consideration of $75, $14 and $79 respectively.

The Company determined, under the equity method, that the issuance of common units of Navios Midstream qualified as a sale of shares by the investee. As a result, a net loss of $49 was recognized in “Equity in net earnings of affiliated companies” for the three month period ended March 31, 2017.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company owned a 2.0% general partner interest in Navios Midstream through the Navios Midstream General Partner and a 57.0% limited partnership interest through the ownership of subordinated units (43.7%), the subordinated series A units (7.5%) and through common units (5.8%), based on all of the outstanding common, subordinated and general partner units.

Of this difference, an amount of $(332) was allocated on the intangibles assets and $20,501 was allocated on the tangible assets.

In connection with the sale of the Nave Celeste and the C. Dream, the Company recognized its incremental investment upon the receipt of the Subordinated series A units in Navios Midstream, which amounted to $27,665 under “Investment in affiliates”.

Guarantees

Credit Facilities

As of March 31, 2017, the Company had secured credit facilities with various banks with a total outstanding balance of $ 441,095. The purpose of the facilities was to finance the construction or acquisition of vessels or refinance existing indebtedness. All of the facilities are denominated in U.S. Dollars and bear interest based on LIBOR plus spread ranging from 230 bps to 400 bps per annum. The facilities are repayable in either semi-annual or quarterly installments, followed by balloon payments with maturities, ranging from July 2018 to October 2022. See also the maturity table included below.

ABN AMRO Bank N.V.: In February 2017, the Company drew $26,650 under this credit facility with ABN AMRO Bank N.V. which is secured with its two chemical tankers, following the full repayment of the previous financing arrangements. The facility is repayable in four equal consecutive quarterly installments of $650 each, with a final balloon payment of the balance to be repaid on the last repayment date. The maturity date of the loan is in February 2018. The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 400 bps per annum. As of March 31, 2017, $26,650 was outstanding under this facility.

In May 2017, Navios Acquisition agreed to enter into a loan facility for an amount of up to $24,000 from a commercial bank in order to refinance the existing facility of its two chemical tankers which matures in the first quarter of 2018. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2017, the amount of $22,284 was reclassified from caption “Current portion of long-term debt, net of deferred finance cost” under current liability to “Long term debt, net of current portion, premium and net of deferred finance cost” under non-current liability. The facility will be repayable in 17 equal consecutive quarterly installments of $572 each, with a final balloon payment of the balance to be repaid on the last repayment date. The facility matures in September 2021 and bears interest at LIBOR plus 300 bps per annum.

As of March 31, 2017, no amount was available to be drawn from our facilities.

The loan facilities include, among other things, compliance with loan to value ratios and certain financial covenants: (i) minimum liquidity higher of $40,000 or $1,000 per vessel; (ii) net worth ranging from $50,000 to $135,000; and (iii) total liabilities divided by total assets, adjusted for market values to be lower than 75%. It is an event of default under the credit facilities if such covenants are not complied with, including the loan to value ratios for which the Company may provide sufficient additional security to prevent such an event.

As of March 31, 2017, the Company was in compliance with its covenants.

NOTE 10: FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for interest bearing deposits approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of these investments.

Restricted Cash: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for interest bearing deposits approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of these investments.

Due from related parties, long-term: The carrying amount of due from related parties, long-term reported in the balance sheet approximates its fair value.

Other long-term debt, net of deferred finance cost: As a result of the adoption of ASU 2015-03, the book value has been adjusted to reflect the net presentation of deferred financing costs. The outstanding balance of the floating rate loans continues to approximate its fair value, excluding the effect of any deferred finance cost.

Ship Mortgage Notes and premiums: The fair value of the 2021 Notes, which has a fixed rate, was determined based on quoted market prices, as indicated in the table below.

will agree (and will cause its subsidiaries to agree) to grant a similar right of first offer to Navios Midstream for any of the VLCCs, crude oil tankers, refined petroleum product tankers, LPG tankers or chemical tankers under charter for five or more years it might own. These rights of first offer will not apply to a: (a) sale, transfer or other disposition of vessels between any affiliated subsidiaries, or pursuant to the terms of any charter or other agreement with a charter party, or (b) merger with or into, or sale of substantially all of the assets to, an unaffiliated third-party.

Backstop Agreement: On November 18, 2014, Navios Acquisition entered into backstop agreements with Navios Midstream. In accordance with the terms of the backstop agreements, Navios Acquisition has provided backstop commitments for a two-year period as of the redelivery of each of the Nave Celeste, the Shinyo Ocean and the Shinyo Kannika from their original charters, at a net rate of $35, $38.4 and $38, respectively. Navios Midstream has currently entered into new charter contracts for the above vessels with third parties upon their redelivery which occurred in the first quarter of 2017. Those contracts provide for index linked charter rates or pool earnings, as the case may be. Backstop commitments will be triggered if the actual rates achieved are below the backstop rates. The backstop agreement for the Shinyo Ocean, the Shinyo Kannika and the Nave Celeste became effective upon re-delivery of the vessels during 2017. The Company has recognized a liability of $1,155 under “Time charter and voyage expenses” in the condensed consolidated Statements of Income as of March 31, 2017 for which the Company believes it represents a reasonable estimate of the loss for the backstop agreements.

Option Vessels: In connection with the IPO of Navios Midstream, Navios Acquisition granted options to Navios Midstream, exercisable until November 18, 2016, to purchase seven VLCCs (two of which, the Nave Celeste and the C. Dream were sold to Navios Midstream in June 2015 pursuant to such option) from Navios Acquisition at fair market value. On October 25, 2016, Navios Acquisition extended the option periods on three of the five remaining VLCCs, the Nave Buena Suerte, the Nave Neutrino and the Nave Electron, for an additional two-year period expiring on November 18, 2018. The purchase options pursuant to the extended period do not include any backstop commitments from Navios Acquisition.

Sale of C. Dream and Nave Celeste: On June 18, 2015, Navios Acquisition sold the vessel-owning subsidiaries of the C. Dream and the Nave Celeste to Navios Midstream for a sale price of $100,000 in total. Out of the $100,000 purchase price, $73,000 was paid in cash and the remaining amount was paid through the issuance of 1,592,920 subordinated Series A Units of Navios Midstream. In conjunction with the transaction, Navios Midstream also issued 32,509 general partner units to the General Partner, in order for the General Partner to maintain its 2.0% general partnership interest, for $551.

The Company recognized its incremental investment in Navios Midstream, which amounted to $27,665 under “Investment in affiliates”. The investment was recognized at fair value at $17.02 per unit. The incremental investment included the Company’s share of the basis difference between the fair value and the underlying book value of Navios Midstream’s assets at the transaction date, which amounted to $2,554. Of this difference an amount of $(72) was allocated to the intangibles assets and $2,626 was allocated to the tangible assets. This difference is amortized through “Equity in net earnings of affiliated companies” over the remaining life of Navios Midstream’s tangible and intangible assets.

The transaction resulted in a gain on sale of $14,742, of which $5,771 was recognized at the time of sale in the statements of income under “Gain on sale of vessels” and the remaining $8,971 representing profit of Navios Acquisition’s 60.9% interest in Navios Midstream has been deferred under “Deferred gain on sale of assets” and is being amortized over the vessels’ remaining useful life or until the vessels are sold. Subsequently, the deferred gain is amortized to income over the remaining useful life of the vessel. The recognition of the deferred gain is accelerated in the event that (i) the vessel is subsequently sold or otherwise disposed of by Navios Midstream or (ii) the Company’s ownership interest in Navios Midstream is reduced.

In connection with the public offerings of common units by Navios Midstream, a pro rata portion of the deferred gain is released to income upon dilution of the Company’s ownership interest in Navios Midstream. As of March 31, 2017 and as of December 31, 2016, the unamortized deferred gain for all vessels and rights sold totaled $8,450 and $8,823, respectively, of which an amount of $980 and $994, respectively, was included in “Deferred revenue”. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, Navios Acquisition recognized $373 and $0 of the deferred gain, respectively, in “Equity in net earnings of affiliated companies”.

Stock based compensation

In October 2013, Navios Acquisition authorized and issued to its directors in the aggregate of 2,100,000 restricted shares of common stock and options to purchase 1,500,000 shares of common stock having an exercise price of $3.91 per share and an expiration term of 10 years. These awards of restricted common stock and stock options are based on service conditions only and vest ratably over a period of three years (33.33% each year). The holders of restricted stock are entitled to dividends paid on the same schedule as paid to the common stockholders of the company. The fair value of restricted stock was determined by reference to the quoted stock price on the date of grant of $3.99 per share (or total fair value of $8,379).

The fair value of stock option grants was determined with reference to the option pricing model, and principally adjusted Black-Scholes models, using historical volatility, historical dividend yield, zero forfeiture rate, risk free rate equal to 10-year U.S. treasury bond and the simplified method for determining the expected option term since the Company did not have sufficient historical exercise data upon which to have a reasonable basis to estimate the expected option term. The fair value of stock options was calculated at $0.79 per option (or $1,188). Compensation expense is recognized based on a graded expense model over the vesting period of three years from the date of the grant.

The effect of compensation expense arising from the stock-based arrangements described above amounted to $0 and $264, for the period ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and was reflected in general and administrative expenses on the statements of operations. The recognized compensation expense was presented as an adjustment to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities on the statements of cash flows.

There were no restricted stock or stock options exercised, forfeited or expired during the three month period ended March 31, 2017.

On October 24, 2016, 2015 and 2014, 700,005, 700,001 and 699,994 shares of restricted stock, respectively, were vested. Accordingly, there were no restricted shares outstanding and non-vested shares as of March 31, 2017 and as of December 31, 2016.

NOTE 16: INCOME TAXES

Marshall Islands, Cayman Islands, British Virgin Islands, and Hong Kong, do not impose a tax on international shipping income. Under the laws of these countries, the countries of incorporation of the Company and its subsidiaries and /or vessels’ registration, the companies are subject to registration and tonnage taxes which have been included in the daily management fee.

In accordance with the currently applicable Greek law, foreign flagged vessels that are managed by Greek or foreign ship management companies having established an office in Greece are subject to duties towards the Greek state which are calculated on the basis of the relevant vessels’ tonnage. The payment of said duties exhausts the tax liability of the foreign ship owning company and the relevant manager against any tax, duty, charge or contribution payable on income from the exploitation of the foreign flagged vessel. The amount included in Navios Acquisition’s statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017, and 2016 related to the Greek Tonnage tax was $412 and $612, respectively.

Pursuant to Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code of the United States (the “Code”), U.S. source income from the international operation of ships is generally exempt from U.S. income tax if the company operating the ships meets certain incorporation and ownership requirements. Among other things, in order to qualify for this exemption, the company operating the ships must be incorporated in a country, which grants an equivalent exemption from income taxes to U.S. corporations. All the Navios Acquisition’s ship-operating subsidiaries satisfy these initial criteria. In addition, these companies must meet an ownership test. Subject to proposed regulations becoming finalized in their current form, the management of Navios Acquisition believes by virtue of a special rule applicable to situations where the ship operating companies are beneficially owned by a publicly traded company like Navios Acquisition, the second criterion can also be satisfied based on the trading volume and ownership of the Company’s shares, but no assurance can be given that this will remain so in the future.

NOTE 17: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On May 8, 2017, Navios Acquisition redeemed, through the holder’s put option, 75,000 shares of puttable common stock and paid cash of $750 to the holder upon redemption.
