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, 2021 and 2020 of Navios Maritime Acquisition Corporation (referred to herein as “we,” “us” or “Navios Acquisition”).

Continuous Offering Program

On November 29, 2019, Navios Acquisition entered into a Continuous Offering Program Sales Agreement, pursuant to which Navios Acquisition may issue and sell from time to time through the sales agent shares of common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $25.0 million. Subsequently to March 31, 2021 and as of June 11, 2021, Navios Acquisition has issued 586,735 shares of common stock and received net proceeds of $2.0 million.

Fleet

Our fleet currently consists of a total of 45 double-hulled tanker vessels, aggregating approximately 5.4 million deadweight tons, or dwt. The fleet includes 12 Very Large Crude Carriers (“VLCC”) tankers (over 200,000 dwt per ship) which transport crude oil, including the two bareboat chartered-in VLCCs expected to be delivered in each of the third quarter of 2021 and the third quarter of 2022, ten Long Range 1 (“LR1”) product tankers (60,000-85,000 dwt per ship), 18 Medium Range 2 (“MR2”) product tankers (47,000-52,000 dwt per ship), three Medium Range one (“MR1”) product tankers (35,000-45,000 dwt per ship) and two chemical tankers (25,000 dwt per ship), which transport refined petroleum products and bulk liquid chemicals. All of our vessels are currently chartered-out to quality counterparties with an average remaining charter period of approximately one year. We have charters covering 79.9% of available days for the remaining nine months period of 2021 and 22.5% of available days in 2022.

Charter Policy and Industry Outlook

Our core fleet currently consists of 45 vessels, of which 12 are VLCCs (including two bareboat chartered-in VLCCs expected to be delivered in each of the third quarter of 2021 and the third quarter of 2022), 31 are product tankers, and two are chemical tankers. All of our vessels are currently chartered-out to quality counterparties with an average remaining charter period of approximately one year. Many of our contracts 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 employment contracts, to provide us with potential incremental revenue above the contracted minimum charter rates.

Using Navios Tankers Management Inc.’s (the “Manager”) 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 Manager’s 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:

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

Voyage, Time Charter and Pooling Arrangements

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:

5

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.

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 the points awarded to each vessel in the pool based on the vessel’s age, design and other performance characteristics.

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. The average age of Navios Acquisition’s owned fleet is currently 9.4 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, 2021 and 2020 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:

Period-over-Period Comparisons

The Three Month Period ended March 31, 2021 compared to the Three Month Period ended March 31, 2020

The following table presents consolidated revenue and expense information for the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. This information was derived from the unaudited consolidated statements of income of Navios Acquisition for the respective periods.

Revenue: Revenue for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 decreased by $25.4 million, or 25.9%, to $72.5 million, as compared to $97.9 million for the same period of 2020. The decrease was mainly attributable to a decrease in market rates during the three month period ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the same period of 2020; partially mitigated by an increase in revenue by $9.5 million due to the acquisition of seven containerships from Navios Europe II in June 2020 and the delivery of two bareboat charter-in vessels, one in each of October 2020 and February 2021. Available days of the fleet increased to 4,493 days for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to 3,755 days for the three month period ended March 31, 2020, mainly due to the reasons mentioned above. The time charter equivalent rate, or TCE Rate per day, decreased to $14,854 for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, from $24,442 for the three month period ended March 31, 2020.

Time charter and voyage expenses: Time charter and voyage expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 decreased by $0.3 million, or 4.9%, to $5.8 million, as compared to $6.1 million for the same period of 2020. The decrease was mainly attributable to a: (i) $2.4 million decrease in bunkers and voyage expenses related to the spot voyages incurred in the period; (ii) $0.5 decrease in port expenses; and (iii) $0.3 million decrease in brokers’ commission costs; partially mitigated by a $2.9 million increase in charter-in expenses.

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 $4.0 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $3.1 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020.

Vessel operating expenses (management fees): Vessel operating expenses amounted to $32.5 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, as compared to $29.8 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020. The increase was primarily due to the increase in the size of our fleet as discussed above. Please see Related Party Transactions for discussion on the management fees.

General and administrative expenses: Total general and administrative expenses for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 increased by $1.1 million to $5.1 million compared to $4.0 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020, mainly due to the increase in legal and professional fees. For the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, the expenses charged by the Manager for administrative services were $3.7 million and $3.0 million, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization: Depreciation and amortization amounted to $16.6 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, respectively. 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 expense and finance cost: Interest expense and finance cost for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 decreased by $3.5 million to $18.3 million, as compared to $21.8 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020. The decrease was mainly due to the decrease in interest expense attributable to the repurchase of the 2021 Notes (as defined herein) and the decrease in the average outstanding balances of our credit facilities and sale and leaseback agreements. The weighted average interest rate for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 to 6.18% compared to 6.81% in the same period in 2020 and the decrease of the average outstanding balance. The average outstanding balance of our credit facilities (other than the 2021 Notes, as defined in “Long-Term Debt Obligations and Credit Arrangements – Ship Mortgage Notes”) decreased to $496.9 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $521.5 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2021 and 2020, the outstanding balance under Navios Acquisition’s total borrowings was $1,058 million and $1,174 million, respectively.

7

Gain on sale of vessels and Impairment loss: There was no gain or loss on sale of vessels and Impairment loss for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $13.9 million for the three month period ended March 30, 2020. For the three month period ended March 31, 2021, there was $1.7 million gain on sale of two containership vessels, Solstice N and Allegro N that was mitigated by a $1.7 million loss on sale of vessel Nave Celeste for the three month period ended March 31, 2021. The gain on sale of vessels and impairment loss for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 resulted from $13.9 million related to the other-than-temporary impairment recognized in the Navios Acquisition’s receivable from Navios Europe II.

Other income: Other income for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 was $0.8 million. For the comparative period of 2020 other income was $0 million.

Other expense: Other expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 was $0.7 million. For the comparative period of 2020 other expense was $1.6 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, long-term borrowings and proceeds from asset sales.

Going Concern

As of March 31, 2021, Navios Acquisition’s current assets totaled $125.7 million, while current liabilities totaled $762.6 million, resulting in a negative working capital position of $636.8 million, primarily related to the classification as current of the $602.6 million of 2021 Notes (as defined herein) which mature on November 15, 2021, balloon payments due under its credit facilities and financial liabilities under the sale and leaseback transactions.

During the second quarter of 2021, Navios Acquisition sold the Acrux N, the Vita N, the Ete N, the Fleur N, the Spectrum N, and the Nave Neutrino for an aggregate net sale price of $98.0 million.

In addition, during the first quarter of 2021, Navios Acquisition entered into a secured loan agreement with a subsidiary of N Shipmanagement Acquisition Corp., an entity affiliated with Navios Acquisition’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, for a loan of up to $100.0 million to be used for general corporate purposes.

The Company intends to fund its working capital requirements and capital commitments via cash at hand, cash flows from operations, long term borrowings, proceeds from its on-going continuous offering program and other equity offerings, and proceeds from sale of assets.

Although the Company is currently attempting to refinance the outstanding amount of its 2021 Notes and has also engaged in discussions with the holders of its 2021 Notes, the successful completion of the attempts described above, including potential refinancing, sales or other action, are dependent on factors outside the Company’s control and therefore there is substantial doubt over the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the 12-month period from the date its interim condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. In the meantime, Navios Acquisition’s internal forecasts and projections indicate that the Company will generate sufficient cash to make the required principal and interest payments on its borrowings (excluding the above upcoming maturities) and provide for the normal working capital requirements of the business for a period of at least 12 months from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

In February 2018, the Board of Directors of Navios Acquisition authorized a stock repurchase program for up to $25.0 million of Navios Acquisition’s common stock, for two years. Stock repurchases were made from time to time for cash in open market transactions at prevailing market prices or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing and amount of repurchases under the program were determined by management based upon market conditions and other factors. Repurchases were made pursuant to a program adopted under Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The program did not require any minimum repurchase or any specific number or amount of shares of common stock and was suspended or reinstated at any time in Navios Acquisition’s discretion and without notice. Repurchases were subject to restrictions under Navios Acquisition’s credit facilities and indenture. Up to the expiration of the stock repurchase program in February 2020, Navios Acquisition had repurchased 735,251 shares since the program was initiated for approximately $7.5 million.

On November 29, 2019, Navios Acquisition entered into a Continuous Offering Program Sales Agreement for the issuance and sale from time to time shares of Navios Acquisition’s common stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $25.0 million. An amended Sales Agreement was entered into on December 23, 2019. As before, the Sales Agreement contains, among other things, customary representations, warranties and covenants by Navios Acquisition and indemnification obligations of the parties thereto as well as certain termination rights for such parties. As of June 11, 2021, since the commencement of the program, Navios Acquisition has issued 1,542,845 shares of common stock and received net proceeds of $7.3 million.

Cash Flow

Cash flows for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2020:

The following table presents cash flow information for the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

Cash provided by operating activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2020:

Net cash provided by operating activities decreased by $25.6 million to $4.9 million for the period ended March 31, 2021 as compared to $30.5 million for the period ended March 31, 2020. The decrease is analyzed as follows:

The net loss for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 was $9.7 million compared to net income of $0.9 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020. In determining net cash provided by operating activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, the net loss was adjusted for the effect of depreciation and amortization of $16.6 million, $3.9 million for the amortization of drydock and special survey costs, $1.2 million for amortization and write-off of deferred finance fees and bond premium, and $0.1 million for stock based compensation.

The net cash outflow resulting from the change in operating assets, liabilities and payments for drydock and special survey costs of $7.2 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 mainly resulted from a (i) $5.0 million decrease in the balance due to related parties; (ii) a $4.6 million increase in prepaid expenses; (iii) $4.4 million decrease in deferred revenue; (iv) $3.1 million increase in the balance due from related parties; (v) $2.5 million payment for drydock and special survey costs; (vi) $1.2 million increase in other long-term assets; (vii) $0.6 million decrease in accounts payable; and (viii) $0.1 million decrease in operating lease liabilities short and long-term. These were partially offset by a: (i) $10.6 million increase in accrued expenses; (ii) $1.9 million decrease in accounts receivable; and (iii) $1.8 million decrease in inventories.

In determining net cash provided by operating activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2020, the net income was adjusted for the effect of: (i) depreciation and amortization of $16.6 million; (ii) $13.9 million impairment of receivable in affiliated company; (iii) $2.9 million for the amortization of drydock and special survey costs; (iv) $1.5 million for amortization and write-off of deferred finance fees and bond premium; (v) $0.1 million for stock based compensation.

The net cash inflow resulting from the change in operating assets, liabilities and payments for drydock and special survey costs of $5.3 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 mainly resulted from: (i) $11.7 million increase in accrued expenses; (ii) $11.6 million decrease in accounts receivable; (iii) $2.0 million increase in deferred revenue; (iv) $1.2 million decrease in inventories; and (v) $1.2 million decrease in prepaid expenses. These were partially offset by a: (i) $14.9 million payment for drydock and special survey costs; (ii) a $13.7 million decrease in the balance due to related parties; and (iii) $4.4 million decrease in accounts payable.

Cash provided by/ (used in) investing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the three month period ended

March 31, 2020:

Net cash provided by/ (used in) investing activities increased by $51.3 million to $45.4 million inflow for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 from $5.9 million outflow for the three month period ended March 31, 2020.

9

Net cash provided by investing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2021, resulted from $48.1 million net cash proceeds from sale of vessels, partially offset by $2.7 million for vessels improvements.

Net cash used in investing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2020, resulted from $5.9 million from vessels improvements.

Cash used in financing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the three month period ended March 31, 2020:

Net cash used in financing activities increased by $27.4 million to $45.0 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 from $17.6 million for the three month period ended March 31, 2020.

Net cash used in financing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 resulted from: (i) $61.0 million of loan repayments; (ii) $1.2 million of debt issuance costs; and (iii) $0.8 million of dividends paid; as partially mitigated by $18.0 million from loan proceeds from an affiliate company.

Net cash used in financing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2020 resulted from: (i) $13.2 million of loan repayments; and (ii) $4.8 million of dividends paid; as partially mitigated by $0.3 million in equity offering proceeds, net of deferred finance fees.

Reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to Net Cash from Operating Activities

EBITDA in this document represents net income/ (loss) before interest and finance costs, before depreciation and amortization and before income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA in this document represents EBITDA excluding certain items, such as stock-based compensation, gain on sale of vessels, gain/ (loss) on debt repayment and other than temporary investment loss on equity investment.

We use Adjusted EBITDA as liquidity measure and reconcile EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to net cash provided by/ (used in) operating activities, the most comparable U.S. GAAP liquidity measure. EBITDA 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 costs and other related expenses; (v) equity/ (loss) in net earnings of affiliates, net of dividends received; (vi) payments for dry dock and special survey costs; (vii) impairment charges; (viii) gain/ (loss) on sale of assets; (ix) gain/ (loss) on debt repayment; (x) stock- based compensation and (xi) transaction costs. Navios Acquisition believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are each 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 and Adjusted EBITDA are used: (i) by potential lenders to evaluate potential transactions; (ii) to evaluate and price potential acquisition candidates; and (iii) by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.

10

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

Adjusted EBITDA affected by the items described in the table above, for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 decreased by $27.1 million to $29.1 million, as compared to $56.2 million for the same period of 2020. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was mainly due to a: (i) $25.4 million decrease in revenue; (ii) $2.7 million increase in vessel operating expenses primarily due to the increase in the size of our fleet as discussed above; and (iii) $1.2 million increase in general and administrative expenses (excluding stock-based compensation) mainly due to the increase in the size of our fleet; partially mitigated by a: (i) $1.7 million decrease in other expenses, net; (ii) $0.3 million decrease in time charter and voyage expenses; and (iii) $0.2 million decrease in direct vessel expenses (other than amortization of dry dock and special survey cost).

Long-Term Debt Obligations and Credit Arrangements

Ship Mortgage Notes

8 1/8% First Priority Ship Mortgages: On November 13, 2013, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Navios Acquisition Finance (US) Inc. (“Navios Acquisition Finance” and together with the Company, the “2021 Co-Issuers”) issued $610.0 million in first priority ship mortgage notes (the “Existing Notes”) due on November 15, 2021 at a fixed rate of 8.125%.

On March 31, 2014, the Company completed a sale of $60.0 million of its first priority ship mortgage notes due in 2021 (the “Additional Notes,” and together with the Existing Notes, the “2021 Notes”). The terms of the Additional Notes are identical to the Existing Notes and were issued at 103.25% plus accrued interest from November 13, 2013.

The 2021 Co-Issuers currently have the option to redeem the 2021 Notes in whole or in part, at a fixed price of 106.094% of the principal amount, which price declines ratably until it reaches par in 2019, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

In addition, upon the occurrence of certain change of control events, the holders of the 2021 Notes will have the right to require the 2021 Co-Issuers to repurchase some or all of the 2021 Notes at 101% of their face amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the repurchase date.

The 2021 Notes contain covenants which, among other things, limit the incurrence of additional indebtedness, issuance of certain preferred stock, the payment of dividends, redemption or repurchase of capital stock or making restricted payments and investments, creation of certain liens, transfer or sale of assets, entering in transactions with affiliates, merging or consolidating or selling all or substantially all of the 2021 Co-Issuers’ properties and assets and creation or designation of restricted subsidiaries.

Following the acquisition of the Star N and the Hector N MR1 product tankers from Navios Europe I, the vessels were offered as collateral under its ship mortgage notes, in substitution of an amount of $25.4 million that was held as cash collateral from the sale proceeds of the Nave Electron.

In connection with the release of the Nave Celeste and the Nave Neutrino from the 2021 Notes, the Nave Spherical and an amount of $5.2 million were added as collateral.

In the fourth quarter of 2019, Navios Acquisition repurchased $12.0 million of its ship mortgage notes for a cash consideration of $10.0 million resulting in a gain on bond repurchase of $1.9 million net of deferred fees written-off.

In the third quarter of 2020, Navios Acquisition repurchased $19.0 million of its ship mortgage notes for a cash consideration of $11.9 million resulting in a gain on bond repurchase of $7.0 million net of deferred fees written-off.

In the fourth quarter of 2020, Navios Acquisition repurchased $36.4 million of its ship mortgage notes for a cash consideration of $27.5 million resulting in a gain on bond repurchase of $8.8 million net of deferred fees written-off.

In the second quarter of 2021, Navios Acquisition has repurchased $51.8 million of its ship mortgage notes for a cash consideration of $41.3 million.

The 2021 Co-Issuers were in compliance with the covenants as of March 31, 2021.

11

The Existing Notes and the Additional Notes are treated as a single class for all purposes under the indenture including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and other offers to purchase and the Additional Notes rank evenly with the Existing Notes. The Additional Notes and the Existing Notes have different CUSIP numbers.

Guarantees

The Company’s 2021 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by all of the Company’s subsidiaries with the exception of (i) Navios Acquisition Finance (a co-issuer of the 2021 Notes), (ii) NAP General Partner, and (iii) Navios Maritime Midstream Partners L.P. and its subsidiaries. The Company’s 2021 Notes are unregistered. The guarantees of the Company’s subsidiaries that own mortgaged vessels are senior secured guarantees and the guarantees of Company’s subsidiaries that do not own mortgaged vessels are senior unsecured guarantees. All subsidiaries, including Navios Acquisition Finance and Navios Midstream and its subsidiaries are 100% owned.

Credit Facilities

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had secured credit facilities with various banks with a total outstanding balance of $120.9 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 September 2021 to October 2027. See also the Contractual Obligations maturity table below.

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.

The majority of the Company’s senior secured credit facilities require compliance with maintenance covenants, including: (i) value-to-loan ratio covenants, based on charter-free valuations, ranging from over 120% to 125%; (ii) minimum liquidity at the higher of $40,000 or $1,000 per vessel owned; (iii) minimum net worth ranging from $50,000 to $ 135,000; and (iv) total liabilities divided by total assets, adjusted for market values, ranging from a maximum of 75% to 85%. It is an event of default under the financing arrangements if such covenants are not complied with, including the loan to value ratios for which the Company may provide sufficient additional security or prepay part of the facility, to prevent such an event. As of March 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all of the applicable covenants under each of its credit facilities.

As of March 31, 2021, no amount was available to be drawn from the Company’s facilities.

Sale and Leaseback Agreements

As of March 31, 2021, the Company had sale and leaseback agreements with various unrelated third parties with a total outstanding balance of $0.3 billion.

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the deposits under the sale and leaseback agreements were $9.1 million, respectively, and are presented under “Other long term assets” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

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 sale and leaseback agreements 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 sale and leaseback agreements 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.

As of March 31, 2021, the Company was in compliance with its covenants.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements – Legal Proceedings

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.

Contractual Obligations

The following table summarizes our long-term contractual obligations as of March 31, 2021:

Navios Acquisition leased office space in Monaco pursuant to a lease agreement, dated July 1, 2018, for a monthly rent of approximately $0.01 million.

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.

14

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, liquefied petroleum gas (“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 have allowed 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 have granted 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 have agreed (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 do 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.

Following the Liquidation of Navios Europe II, the balance due from Navios Europe II as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $0.

The decline in the fair value of the investment was considered as other-than-temporary and, therefore, an aggregate loss of $13.9 million was recognized and included in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2020. The fair value of the Company’s investment was determined based on the liquidation value of Navios Europe II, determined on the individual fair values assigned to the assets and liabilities of Navios Europe II. The fair value of the investment in Navios Europe II is considered to be determined through Level 3 inputs of fair value hierarchy.

Loan payable to affiliate company: On March 19, 2021, Navios Acquisition entered into a secured loan agreement with a subsidiary of N Shipmanagement Acquisition Corp., an entity affiliated with Navios Acquisition’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, for a loan of up to $100.0 million to be used for general corporate purposes. The loan has a term of two years, scheduled amortization and bears interest at a rate of 11% per annum, payable quarterly, and arrangement fees of amount $1.2 million paid at closing. Navios Acquisition may elect to defer all scheduled amortization and interest payments, in which case the applicable interest rate is 12.5% per annum. For the three month period ended March 31, 2021, Navios Acquisition drew $18.0 million. Subsequently to March 31, 2021 to date, Navios Acquisition drew an additional amount of $29.2 million.

The Board has decided to suspend its quarterly dividend to its stockholders including the payment for the quarter ended December 31, 2020.

15

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.

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, 2021, Navios Acquisition had a total of $1,058.0 million in long-term and short-term indebtedness. Borrowings under our credit facilities bear interest at rates based on a premium over LIBOR in U.S dollars except for the interest rate on the Loan payable to affiliate company, 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, 2021, we paid interest on our outstanding debt at a weighted average interest rate of 6.18%. A 1% increase in LIBOR would have increased our interest expense for the three month period ended March 31, 2021 by $1.2 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, 2021, Shell and Saudi Aramco Products Trading accounted for 13.1% and 10.1%, respectively, of Navios Acquisition’s revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2020, Navig8, China ZhenHua and China Shipping Development, accounted for 25.5%, 11.4% and 10.7%, 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.

Accordingly, an updated Continuous Offering Program Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) was entered into on December 23, 2019.

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 unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, statement of changes in equity, statements of operations 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 2020 Annual Report filed on Form 20-F with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)

Going Concern

As of March 31, 2021, Navios Acquisition’s current assets totaled $125,732, while current liabilities totaled $762,573, resulting in a negative working capital position of $636,841, primarily related to the classification as current of the $602,600 of 2021 Notes (as defined herein) which mature on November 15, 2021, balloon payments due under its credit facilities and financial liabilities under the sale and leaseback transactions.

During the second quarter of 2021, Navios Acquisition sold the Acrux N, the Vita N, the Ete N, the Fleur N, the Spectrum N, and the Nave Neutrino for an aggregate net sale price of $97,982.

In addition, during the first quarter of 2021, Navios Acquisition entered into a secured loan agreement with a subsidiary of N Shipmanagement Acquisition Corp., an entity affiliated with Navios Acquisition’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, for a loan of up to $100,000 to be used for general corporate purposes.

The Company intends to fund its working capital requirements and capital commitments via cash at hand, cash flows from operations, long term borrowings, proceeds from its on-going continuous offering program and other equity offerings, and proceeds from sale of assets.

NAVIOS MARITIME ACQUISITION CORPORATION UNAUDITED CONDENSED NOTES TO THE

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Although the Company is currently attempting to refinance the outstanding amount of its 2021 Notes and has also engaged in discussions with the holders of its 2021 Notes, the successful completion of the attempts described above, including potential refinancing, sales or other action, are dependent on factors outside the Company’s control and therefore there is substantial doubt over the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the 12-month period from the date its interim condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. In the meantime, Navios Acquisition’s internal forecasts and projections indicate that the Company will generate sufficient cash to make the required principal and interest payments on its borrowings (excluding the above upcoming maturities) and provide for the normal working capital requirements of the business for a period of at least 12 months from the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

(b) Recent accounting pronouncements

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Navios Acquisition’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2020.

(c) 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.

(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.

As of March 31, 2021, the entities included in these consolidated financial statements were:

(e) Revenue and Expense Recognition:

Revenue Recognition: On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606). The guidance provides a unified model to determine how revenue is recognized. In doing so, the Company makes judgments including identifying performance obligations in the contract, estimating the amount of variable consideration to include in the transaction price, and allocating the transaction price to each performance obligation. Revenues are recognized to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In determining the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under its agreements, the Company performs the following steps: (i) identification of the promised goods or services in the contract; (ii) determination of whether the promised goods or services are performance obligations, including whether they are distinct in the context of the contract; (iii) measurement of the transaction price, including the constraint on variable consideration; (iv) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations based on estimated selling prices; and (v) recognition of revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies each performance obligation.

The Company has determined to recognize lease revenue as a combined single lease component for all time charters (operating leases) as the related lease component and non-lease component will have the same timing and pattern of the revenue recognition of the combined single lease component.

The Company’s contract revenues from time chartering and pooling arrangements are governed by ASC 842 “Leases”. The Company has determined to recognize lease revenue as a combined single lease component for all time charters (operating leases) as the related lease component and non-lease component will have the same timing and pattern of the revenue recognition of the combined single lease component. The performance obligations in a time charter contract are satisfied over term of the contract beginning when the vessel is delivered to the charterer until it is redelivered back to the Company.

Revenue from time chartering

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. The performance obligations in a time charter contract are satisfied over term of the contract beginning when the vessel is delivered to the charterer until it is redelivered back to the Company. The Company determined that all time charter contracts are considered operating leases and therefore fall under the scope of ASC 842 because: (i) the vessel is an identifiable asset; (ii) the Company does not have substantive substitution rights; and (iii) the charterer has the right to control the use of the vessel during the term of the contract and derives the economic benefits from such use. The transition guidance associated with ASC 842 allows for certain practical expedients to the lessors. The Company elected to not separate the lease and non-lease components included in the time charter revenue because (i) the pattern of revenue recognition for the lease and non-lease components (included in the daily hire rate) is the same. The daily hire rate represents the hire rate for a bare boat charter as well as the compensation for expenses incurred running the vessel such as crewing expense, repairs, insurance, maintenance and lubes. Both the lease and non-lease components are earned by passage of time. 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. Revenues from time chartering of vessels amounted to $65,221 and $59,265 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The majority of revenue from time chartering is usually collected in advance.

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 are determined by the margins 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 as variable rate operating leases on the accrual basis and is recognized in the period in which the variability is resolved. The Company recognizes net pool revenue on a monthly and quarterly basis, when the vessel has participated in a pool during the period and the amount of pool revenue can be estimated reliably based on the pool report. The allocation of such net revenue may be subject to future adjustments by the pool however, such changes are not expected to be material. Revenue for vessels operating in pooling arrangements amounted to $5,131 and $22,676 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The majority of revenue from pooling arrangements is usually collected through the month they are incurred.

Revenue from voyage contracts

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. Upon adoption of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts With Customers, the Company recognizes revenue ratably from port of loading to when the charterer’s cargo is discharged as well as defer costs that meet the definition of “costs to fulfill a contract” and relate directly to the contract. Revenues earned under voyage contracts amounted to $1,965 and $9,759 for the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Capitalized costs for each of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 related to costs to fulfill the contract amounted to $0. Accounts receivable, net, as of March 31, 2021 that related to voyage contracts was $287 (December 31, 2020: $252). The majority of revenue from voyage contracts is usually collected after the discharging takes place.

Revenue from profit sharing

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. Profit sharing for the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 amounted to $188 and $6,157, respectively.

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.

Options to extend or terminate a lease

The Company’s vessels have the following options to extent or renew their charters:
