_______________
1 EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA represents net income before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before profit/loss on sale of vessel, unrealized gain/loss on non-designated derivative instruments and foreign currency exchange gain or loss on senior secured bonds. Management believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful to investors in evaluating the operating performance of the Company. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to consolidated net income, cash generated from operations or any measure. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures are in the below section "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures".

Other Highlights and Developments

Operational Update

Total operating revenue was $134.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $136.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Average daily time charter equivalent2 ("TCE") across the fleet increased to $28,339 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $25,620 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The average handysize 12-month market assessment for semi-refrigerated and fully-refrigerated vessels for first quarter of 2024 increased by $206,000 and $152,000 per calendar month (“pcm”), to an average of $963,000 pcm and $888,000 pcm respectively, against the first quarter of 2023. The handysize ethylene market 12-month assessment increased by $320,000 pcm from $937,000 pcm to $1,257,000 pcm, from the first quarter of 2023 to the first quarter of 2024. Clarkson's market assessment for first quarter of 2024 compared with the first quarter of 2023 is therefore higher on all three segments, by 27%, 20% and 35% for semi-refrigerated, fully-refrigerated, and ethylene-capable vessel segments, respectively.

Utilization across the fleet decreased from 91.3% in the fourth quarter of 2023 to 89.3% in the first quarter of 2024. Utilization during the first quarter of 2023 was 96.3%. The primary reason for the decrease in utilization for the first quarter of 2024, compared to the both first quarter of 2023 as well as the fourth quarter of 2023, is a reduction in activity across our spot fleet in the semi-refrigerated segment. The utilization for this segment decreased to 85.2% for the first quarter of 2024 compared to 95.6% for the first quarter of 2023. The primary driver for the decrease in utilization was a reduction in LPG demand across all vessel sizes and a correction downward in the 12-month assessment for the fourth quarter of 2023 in the ethylene segment.

During the first quarter of 2024 we experienced continued robust demand for ethane shipping from the U.S. Gulf area to China. The demand was primarily driven by a continued reduction in available Panama Canal transits and ethane carriers opting to proceed via the Cape of Good Hope between the U.S. Gulf and China. Furthermore, ethylene arbitrage between the U.S. Gulf and the Far East improved, meaning increased demand from ethylene traders.

In the first quarter of 2024 we had approximately 31 vessels engaged under time charters, 16 vessels on spot voyage charters and contracts of affreightment ("CoA") and nine vessels were operated in the independently managed Unigas Pool. From April 1, 2024, and 12 months out, we have approximately 46% of our available days covered under time charter with fixed earnings. Our midsize and fully refrigerated vessels are almost exclusively employed on time charters, our semi-refrigerated vessels are employed under time charters and spot voyage charters, and most of our ethylene- capable vessels are employed on the spot voyage market.

Ethylene Export Terminal

We own a 50% share in an ethylene export marine terminal at Morgan’s Point, Texas (the “Ethylene Export Terminal”) through a joint venture (the "Export Terminal Joint Venture"). The Ethylene Export Terminal throughput during the first quarter of 2024 was 220,703 metric tons, compared to 250,731 metric tons during the first quarter of 2023. The decrease was due to reduced throughput in January 2024. Our share of the results of equity investments are $4.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to $5.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.

We, together with Enterprise Products Partners L.P, our joint venture partner, have agreed to invest in the extension of the Ethylene Export Terminal (the “Terminal Expansion Project”), which is expected to increase the export capacity from approximately one million tons per year to at least 1.55 million tons. All major project equipment has been purchased (much of which has already been delivered), support infrastructure and new pipes are being assembled, and construction is expected to occur throughout 2024 with completion scheduled in the fourth quarter of 2024. The first new multi-year offtake contract has been signed and another offtake customer has agreed to commercial terms. We continue to expect that additional capacity will be contracted during the remainder of the construction phase.

The total capital contributions required from us to the Export Terminal Joint Venture for the Terminal Expansion Project are expected to be approximately $130 million which the Company expects to finance using existing cash resources, distributions from the Export Terminal Joint Venture during the course of the expansion and additional debt. Of the expected total of $130 million, $43.0 million has been contributed as of March 31, 2024, $8.0 million of which was contributed during the first quarter of 2024.

Investment in an Early-Stage Clean Ammonia Export Project

On May 14, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a $2.5 million investment in an early-stage clean ammonia export project in the U.S. Gulf coast area. The Company expects to make its first monetary contribution to the project in the second or third quarter of 2024, and we will provide more details as the project develops. This initial investment is development capital, and subject to board approval, we also expect to make larger investments at FID and during the construction phase of the project towards a terminal and ship-shore logistics.

Return of Capital Policy

The Company’s current Return of Capital policy, which is subject to operating needs and other circumstances, is based on paying out quarterly cash dividends of $0.05 per share of common stock and returning additional capital in the form of additional cash dividends and/or Share Repurchases (as defined below), such that the two elements combined equal at least 25% of net income for the applicable quarter.

As part of the Return of Capital policy, we expect to repurchase the Company’s common stock (the “Share Repurchases”) and any such Share Repurchases will be made via open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or any other method permitted under U.S. securities laws and the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.

Declarations of any dividends in the future, and the amount of any such dividends, are subject to the discretion of the Company’s Board. The Return of Capital policy does not oblige the Company to pay any dividends or repurchase any of its shares in the future and it may be suspended, discontinued or modified by the Company at any time, for any reason. Further, the timing of any Share Repurchases under the Return of Capital policy will be determined by the Company’s management and will depend on market conditions, legal requirements, stock price, and other factors.

Operating Revenues. Operating revenues, net of address commissions, was $121.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, an increase of $4.4 million or 3.8% compared to $116.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. This increase was primarily due to:

  • an increase of approximately $11.0 million attributable to an increase in average monthly time charter equivalent rates, which increased to an average of approximately $28,339 per vessel per day ($861,990 per vessel per calendar month) for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to an average of approximately $25,620 per vessel per day ($779,283 per vessel per calendar month) for the three months ended March 31, 2023;

  • a decrease of approximately $8.3 million attributable to a decrease in fleet utilization, which declined to 89.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to 96.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2023;

  • an increase of approximately $4.7 million or 4.7%, attributable to a 190 day increase in vessel available days for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. This increase was in part a result of five handysize vessels acquired by the Navigator Greater Bay Joint Venture being fully operational during the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, in which three vessels were acquired.

  • a decrease of approximately $3.0 million primarily attributable to a decrease in pass through voyage costs for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023.

The following table presents selected operating data for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and 2023, which we believe is useful in understanding the basis of movements in our operating revenues.

** Non-GAAP Financial Measure—Time charter equivalent: Time charter equivalent (“TCE”) is a measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel. TCE is not calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. For all charters, we calculate TCE by dividing total operating revenues (excluding collaborative arrangements and revenues from the Unigas Pool), less any voyage expenses (excluding collaborative arrangements), by the number of earning days for the relevant period. TCE excludes the effects of the collaborative arrangements, as earning days and fleet utilization, on which TCE is based, is calculated for our owned vessels, and not the average of all pool vessels. Under a time charter, the charterer pays substantially all of the vessel's voyage related expenses, whereas for voyage charters, also known as spot market charters, we pay all voyage expenses. TCE is a shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period-to-period changes in a company’s performance despite changes in the mix of charter types (i.e., voyage charters, time charters and contracts of affreightment) under which the vessels may be employed. We include average daily TCE, as we believe it provides additional meaningful information in conjunction with net operating revenues. Our calculation of TCE may not be comparable to that reported by other companies.

***Operating revenues and voyage expenses excluding collaborative arrangements and our nine owned vessels in the independently managed Unigas Pool.

Operating Revenues – Unigas Pool. Operating revenues – Unigas Pool was $13.1 million an increase of 7.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $12.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and represents our share of the revenues earned from our nine vessels operating within the independently managed Unigas Pool, based on agreed pool points.

Operating Revenues – Luna Pool Collaborative Arrangements. Luna Pool earnings were aggregated and then allocated (after deducting pool overheads and manager's fees) to the pool participants in accordance with the Pooling Agreement. Operating revenues - Luna Pool collaborative arrangements was $nil for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $7.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and represented our share of pool net revenues generated by the other participant’s vessels in the pool, prior to the acquisition of the vessels by Navigator Greater Bay Joint Venture. This decrease was a result of the Company no longer accounting for any of the pool vessels’ earnings under the Luna Pool collaborative arrangement following the acquisition of the final vessel Navigator Vega on, April 13, 2023.

Brokerage Commissions. Brokerage commissions, which typically vary between 1.25% and 2.5% of operating revenues, decreased by $0.1 million or 4.0% to $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, from $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily due to a decrease in the average brokerage percentage paid.

Voyage Expenses. Voyage expenses decreased by $3.0 million or 17.7% to $14.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, from $17.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. These voyage expenses are pass through costs, corresponding to a decrease in operating revenues of the same amount.

Voyage Expenses – Luna Pool Collaborative Arrangements. Voyage expenses – Luna Pool collaborative arrangements were $nil for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $5.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. These voyage expenses – Luna Pool collaborative arrangements represent the other participant’s share of pool net revenues generated by our vessels in the pool, prior to the acquisition of the vessels by Navigator Greater Bay Joint Venture. This decrease was a result of the Company no longer accounting for any of the pool vessels’ earnings under the Luna Pool collaborative arrangement following the acquisition of the final vessel Navigator Vega on, April 13, 2023.

Vessel Operating Expenses. Vessel operating expenses increased by $0.4 million or 1.1% to $42.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, from $41.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. Average daily vessel operating expenses decreased by $124 per vessel per day, or 1.5%, to $8,265 vessel per day for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $8,389 per vessel per day for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased by $1.6 million to $33.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to $31.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase is driven by the acquisition of the five vessels by the Navigator Greater Bay Joint Venture in 2023. Depreciation and amortization included amortization of capitalized drydocking costs of $5.6 million and $4.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

General and Administrative Costs. General and administrative costs decreased by $0.3 million or 4.1% to $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, from $6.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Non-Operating Results

Unrealized Gains / (Losses) on Non-Designated Derivative Instruments. The unrealized loss of $0.4 million on non-designated derivative instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2024, relates to fair value losses on interest rate swaps associated with a number of our secured term loan and revolving credit facilities, as a result of a decrease in forward Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) interest rates, compared to an unrealized loss of $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased by $2.4 million, or 18.0%, to $15.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, from $13.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. This is primarily a result of increases in US dollar SOFR rates and the draw down of facilities that provided financing for the acquisition of five ethylene carriers by the Navigator Greater Bay Joint Venture.

Income Taxes. Income taxes relate to taxes on our subsidiaries and businesses incorporated around the world including those incorporated in the United States of America. Income taxes were $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily related to current tax and a deferred tax gain in relation to our investment in the Ethylene Export Terminal.

Share of Result of Equity Method Investments. The share of the result of the Company’s 50% ownership in the Export Terminal Joint Venture was income of $4.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to income of $5.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to lower volumes exported through the Ethylene Export Terminal, being 220,703 tons for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to 250,703 tons for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The decrease was due to reduced throughput in January 2024.

Non-Controlling Interest. The Company entered into a sale and leaseback arrangement in November 2019 with a wholly-owned special purpose vehicle of a financial institution (“Lessor SPV”). Although we do not hold any equity investments in this Lessor SPV, we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary of this entity and accordingly, we are required to consolidate this Variable Interest Entity ("VIE") into our financial results. The net income attributable to the Lessor SPV was $0.4 million and this is presented as a non-controlling interest for each period for both the three months ended March 31, 2024, and the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Navigator Greater Bay Joint Venture

In September 2022, the Company entered into the Navigator Greater Bay Joint Venture to acquire five ethylene vessels, Navigator Luna, Navigator Solar, Navigator Castor, Navigator Equator, and Navigator Vega. The joint venture is owned 60% by the Company and 40% by Greater Bay Gas Co Ltd., ("Greater Bay"). The Navigator Greater Bay Joint Venture is accounted for as a consolidated subsidiary in our consolidated financial statements, with the 40% owned by Greater Bay accounted for as a non-controlling interest. A gain attributable to Greater Bay of $1.8 million is presented as part of the non-controlling interest in our financial results for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to effectively $nil for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The following table shows a reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

Unrealized loss on non-designated derivative instruments 4,251 447
Write off of deferred financing costs 171
Adjusted EBITDA1 $ 69,022 $ 74,138
1 EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measurements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. EBITDA represents net income before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA before profit/loss on sale of vessel, unrealized gain/loss on non-designated derivative instruments and foreign currency exchange gain or loss on senior secured bonds. Management believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful to investors in evaluating the operating performance of the Company. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should not be considered alternatives to consolidated net income, cash generated from operations or any measure.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity and Cash Needs

Our primary sources of funds are cash and cash equivalents, cash from operations, undrawn bank borrowings and proceeds from bond issuances. As of March 31, 2024, we had cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash of $172.2 million.

The Company repaid $23.8 million of the $111.8 million Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility held with Credit Agricole in December 2023 and a further $4.7 million during the first quarter of 2024. The total amount repaid of $28.5 million remains available to be redrawn by the Company in accordance with the terms of the Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility which matures in September 2028.

Our secured term loan facilities and revolving credit facilities require that the borrowers have liquidity of no less than (i) $35.0 million or $50.0 million, as applicable to the relevant loan facility, or (ii) 5% of total debt (which was $43.4 million as of March 31, 2024), whichever is greater.

Our primary uses of funds are drydocking and other vessel maintenance expenditures, voyage expenses, vessel operating expenses, general and administrative costs, insurance costs, expenditures incurred in connection with ensuring that our vessels comply with international and regulatory standards, financing expenses, quarterly repayment of bank loans and the Terminal Expansion Project. We also expect to use funds in connection with our Return of Capital policy. In addition, our medium-term and long-term liquidity needs relate to debt repayments, repayment of bonds, potential future vessel newbuildings, related investments, vessel acquisitions, and or related port or terminal projects.

As of March 31, 2024, we had $873.4 million in outstanding obligations, which includes principal repayments on long-term debt, including our bonds, commitments in respect of the Navigator Aurora Facility (as defined below) and office lease commitments. Of the total outstanding obligations, $175.2 million matures during the twelve months ending March 31, 2025, and $698.2 million matures after March 31, 2025.

We believe, given our current cash balances, that our financial resources, including the cash expected to be generated within the year, will be sufficient to meet our liquidity and working capital needs for at least the next twelve months, taking into account our existing capital commitments and debt service requirements.

Capital Expenditures

Liquefied gas transportation by sea is a capital-intensive business, requiring significant investment to maintain an efficient fleet and to stay in regulatory compliance.

We currently have no newbuildings on order. However, we may place newbuilding orders or acquire additional vessels as part of our growth strategy. We may invest further in terminal infrastructure, such as the expansion of our existing Ethylene Export Terminal. The total capital contributions required from us to fund our share of the construction cost of the Terminal Expansion Project are expected to be approximately $130 million, of which $43.0 million has been contributed as of March 31, 2024 which includes $8.0 million contributed during the first quarter of 2024.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash provided by/(used in) operating, investing and financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

Three months ended
March 31, 2023

Three months ended

(in thousands)
Net cash provided by operating activities $ 39,257 $ 49,122
Net cash provided by/(used in) investing activities (133,144 ) (620 )
Net cash (used in)/provided by financing activities 130,908 (33,624 )
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash 648 (880 )
Net increase in cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 37,669 $ 13,998

Operating Cash Flows. Net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2024, increased to $49.1 million, from $39.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, an increase of $9.9 million. This increase was primarily due to an increase in net income of $6.0 million (after adding back the non-cash unrealized gains/loss on derivative instruments and our share of the result from equity method investments); and due to changes in working capital of $5.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Net cash flow from operating activities principally depends upon charter rates attainable, fleet utilization, fluctuations in working capital balances, repairs and maintenance activity, amount and duration of drydocks and changes in foreign currency rates.

We are required to drydock each vessel once every five years until it reaches 15 years of age, after which we drydock vessels approximately every two and a half years. Drydocking each vessel, including travelling to and from the drydock, can take approximately 30 days in total being approximately 5-10 days of voyage time to and from the shipyard and approximately 15-20 days of actual drydocking time. Ten of our vessels completed their respective drydockings during the three months ended March 31, 2024,

We estimate the current cost of a five-year drydocking for one of our vessels is approximately $1.0 million, a ten-year drydocking cost is approximately $1.3 million, and the 15-year and 17-year drydocking costs are approximately $1.5 million each (including the cost of classification society surveys). As our vessels age and our fleet expands, our drydocking expenses will increase. Ongoing costs for compliance with environmental regulations are primarily included as part of drydocking, such as the requirement to install ballast water treatment plants, and classification society survey costs, with a balance included as a component of our operating expenses.

Investing Cash Flows. Net cash used in investing activities was $0.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily related to contributions to our investment in the Export Terminal Joint Venture via the Terminal Expansion Project of $8.0 million, offset by distributions received from our investment in the Export Terminal Joint Venture of $6.4 million.

Net cash used in investing activities was $133.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily as a result of $142.8 million for the acquisition of three vessels by the Navigator Greater Bay Joint Venture, offset by distributions received from our investment in the Export Terminal Joint Venture of $8.4 million.

Financing Cash Flows. Net cash used in financing activities was $33.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily as a result of our regular quarterly debt repayments totaling $31.1 million and $0.8 million for our share repurchase program.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $130.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 primarily as a result of the drawdowns of $130.9 million on our Greater Bay JV Secured Term Loan to partially finance the acquisition of three vessels; as well as $20.4 million received as a capital contribution from the non-controlling interest for those vessels; a drawdown of $200.0 million on our March 2023 Secured Term Loan, which provided the financing to repay two maturing secured term loan facilities totaling $132.2 million; scheduled quarterly loan repayments of $16.1 million and $28.1 million for our share repurchase program.

Terminal Facility

General. In March 2019, Navigator Ethylene Terminals LLC (“Marine Terminal Borrower”), our wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Terminal Facility”) with ING Capital LLC and SG Americas Securities, LLC for a maximum principal amount of $75.0 million, to be used for the payment of capital contributions to our Export Terminal Joint Venture for construction costs of our Ethylene Export Terminal.

Term and Facility Limits. The Terminal Facility is now converted into a term loan with a final maturity of December 31, 2025. Based on the committed throughput agreements for the Ethylene Export Terminal, a total of $69.0 million was drawn under the Terminal Facility of which $22.3 million was outstanding as of March 31, 2024.

Interest. The Terminal Facility is subject to quarterly repayments of principal and interest. Interest is payable at a rate of Compounded SOFR ("Comp SOFR") plus 275 to 300 basis points over the remaining term of the facility. We have entered into floating to fixed interest rate swap agreements for approximately 80% of the amounts drawn under the Terminal Facility. The Comp SOFR element of the interest rate payable by the Marine Terminal Borrower under these interest rate swap agreements is 0.369% and 0.3615% per annum.

Financial Covenants. Under the Terminal Facility, the Marine Terminal Borrower must maintain a minimum debt service coverage ratio (as defined in the Terminal Facility) for the prior four calendar fiscal quarters (or shorter period of time if data for the prior four fiscal quarters is not available) of no less than 1.10 to 1.00.

Restrictive Covenants. The Marine Terminal Borrower can only pay dividends if the Marine Terminal Borrower satisfies certain customary conditions, including maintaining a debt service coverage ratio for the immediately preceding four consecutive fiscal quarters and the projected immediately succeeding four consecutive fiscal quarters of not less than 1.20 to 1.00 and where no default or event of default has occurred or is continuing. The Terminal Facility also limits the Marine Terminal Borrower from, among other things, incurring further indebtedness or entering into mergers and divestitures. The Terminal Facility also contains general covenants that require the Marine Terminal Borrower to vote its interest in the Export Terminal Joint Venture to cause the Export Terminal Joint Venture to maintain adequate insurance coverage and maintain its property (but only to the extent the Marine Terminal Borrower has the power under the organizational documents of the Export Terminal Joint Venture to cause such actions).

_______________
3 The October 2019 loan facility relates to the Navigator Aurora Facility held within a lessor entity (for which legal ownership resides with a financial institution) that we are required to consolidate under U.S. GAAP into our financial statements as a variable interest entity. Please read Note 14—Variable Interest Entities to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.

March 2023 Secured Term Loan. On March 20, 2023, the Company entered into a senior secured term loan with Nordea Bank ABP, ABN AMRO Bank N.V., Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB (Publ), and BNP Paribas S.A. to refinance the June 2017 Secured Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility and the October 2016 Secured Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility that were due to mature in June and October 2023 respectively.

The March 2023 Secured Term Loan has a term of six years, maturing in March 2029 and is for a maximum principal amount of $200 million which was fully drawn on March 28, 2023. The available facility amount shall be reduced quarterly by an amount of $8.3 million, followed, by a final balloon payment in March 2029. Interest on amounts drawn is payable at a rate of Comp SOFR + 210 BPS.

This loan facility is secured by first priority mortgages on a total of ten of our owned vessels.

Financial Covenants. All of the secured term loan facilities and revolving credit facilities contain financial covenants requiring the borrowers, among other things, to ensure that:

  • the borrowers have liquidity (including undrawn available lines of credit with a maturity exceeding 12 months) of no less than (i) $35.0 million or $50.0 million, or (ii) 5% of Net Debt or total debt, as applicable, whichever is greater; and
  • the borrower must maintain a minimum ratio of shareholder equity or value adjusted shareholder equity to total assets or value adjusted total assets of 30%.

Restrictive Covenants. The secured facilities provide that the borrowers may not declare or pay dividends to shareholders out of operating revenues generated by the vessels securing the indebtedness if an event of default has occurred and is continuing. The secured term loan facilities and revolving credit facilities also limit the borrowers from, among other things, incurring further indebtedness or entering into mergers and divestitures. The secured facilities also contain general covenants that require the borrowers to maintain adequate insurance coverage and to maintain their vessels. In addition, the secured term loan facilities include customary events of default, including those relating to a failure to pay principal or interest, a breach of covenant, representation and warranty, a cross-default to other indebtedness and non-compliance with security documents.

Other than as stated, our compliance with the financial covenants listed above is measured as of the end of each fiscal quarter. As of March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all covenants under the secured term loan facilities and revolving credit facilities.

The borrowers are also required to deliver semi-annual compliance certificates, which include valuations of the vessels securing the applicable facility from an independent ship broker. Upon delivery of the valuation, if the market value of the collateral vessels is less than 125% to 135% of the outstanding indebtedness under the applicable facilities, the borrowers must either provide additional collateral or repay any amount in excess of 125% to 135% of the market value of the collateral vessels, as applicable. This covenant is measured semi-annually on June 30 and December 31.

2020 Senior Unsecured Bonds

General. On September 10, 2020, we issued senior unsecured bonds in an aggregate principal amount of $100 million with Nordic Trustee AS as the bond trustee (the “2020 Bonds”). The net proceeds of the issuance of the 2020 Bonds were used to redeem in full all of our previously outstanding 2017 Bonds. The 2020 Bonds are governed by Norwegian law and listed on the Nordic ABM which is operated and organized by Oslo Børs ASA.

Interest. Interest on the 2020 Bonds is payable at a fixed rate of 8.0% per annum, calculated on a 360-day year basis. Interest is payable semi- annually in arrears on March 10 and September 10 of each year.

Maturity. The 2020 Bonds mature in full on September 10, 2025 and become repayable on that date.

Optional Redemption. We may redeem the 2020 Bonds, in whole or in part at any time. Any 2020 Bonds redeemed; up until September 9, 2023 will be priced at the aggregate of the net present value (based on the Norwegian government bond rate plus 50 basis points) of 103.2% of par and interest payable up to September 9, 2023; from September 10, 2023 up until September 9, 2024, are redeemable at 103.2% of par; from September 10, 2024 up until March 9, 2025, are redeemable at 101.6% of par; and from March 10, 2025 to the maturity date are redeemable at 100% of par; in each case, in cash plus accrued interest.

Additionally, upon the occurrence of a “Change of Control Event” (as defined in the bond agreement for the 2020 Bonds, (the “2020 Bond Agreement”)), the holders of 2020 Bonds have the option to require us to repay such holders’ outstanding principal amount of 2020 Bonds at 101% of par, plus accrued interest.

Financial Covenants. The 2020 Bond Agreement contains financial covenants requiring us, among other things, to ensure that:

  • we and our subsidiaries maintain a minimum liquidity of no less than $35.0 million; and
  • we and our subsidiaries maintain an Equity Ratio (as defined in the 2020 Bond Agreement) of at least 30%.

Our compliance with the covenants listed above is measured as of the end of each fiscal quarter. As of March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all covenants under the 2020 Bonds.

Restrictive Covenants. The 2020 Bonds provide that we may declare or pay dividends to shareholders provided the Company maintains a minimum liquidity of $60.0 million unless an event of default has occurred and is continuing. The 2020 Bond Agreement also limits us and our subsidiaries from, among other things, entering into mergers and divestitures, engaging in transactions with affiliates or incurring any additional liens which would have a material adverse effect. In addition, the 2020 Bond Agreement includes customary events of default, including those relating to a failure to pay principal or interest, a breach of covenant, false representation and warranty, a cross-default to other indebtedness, the occurrence of a material adverse effect, or our insolvency or dissolution.

In September 2023 we purchased $9.0 million of the 2020 Bonds in the open market using cash on hand. These purchased 2020 Bonds have not been canceled or redeemed and the Company intends to hold the bonds to maturity.

Lessor VIE Debt

In October 2019, we entered into a sale and leaseback transaction to refinance one of our vessels, Navigator Aurora¸ with a lessor, OCY Aurora Ltd, a special purpose vehicle (“SPV”) and wholly owned subsidiary of Ocean Yield Malta Limited. The SPV was determined to be a VIE. We are deemed under U.S. GAAP to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE, and as a result, we are required to consolidate the SPV into our results. The loan described below under “—Navigator Aurora Facility” relates to the VIE. Although we have no control over the funding arrangements of this entity, we are required to consolidate this loan facility into our financial results.

Upon the occurrence of a “Change of Control Event” (as defined in the sale and leaseback agreement), the lessor has the option to require us to repurchase Navigator Aurora at 103% of the outstanding lease amount, plus costs and expenses directly attributable to the termination of the lessor’s financing arrangements, such as break costs for swap arrangements.

Navigator Aurora Facility In October 2019, the SPV, which owns Navigator Aurora, entered into secured financing agreements for $69.1 million consisting of a USD denominated loan facility, the “Navigator Aurora Facility”. The Navigator Aurora Facility is a seven year unsecured loan provided by OCY Malta Limited, the parent of OCY Aurora Ltd., The Navigator Aurora Facility is subordinated to a further bank loan where OCY Aurora Ltd is the guarantor and Navigator Aurora is pledged as security. The Navigator Aurora Facility bears interest at 3-month Term SOFR, a credit adjustment spread, plus a margin of 185 basis points and is repayable by the SPV with a balloon payment on maturity. As of March 31, 2024, $39.7 million in borrowings were outstanding under the Navigator Aurora Facility (December 31, 2023, $41.3 million).

Critical Accounting Estimates

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make estimates in the application of our accounting policies based on our best assumptions, judgments and opinions. On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material. For a description of our material accounting policies, please read Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies to the Company's 2023 Annual Report.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates and foreign currency fluctuations, as well as inflation. We use interest rate swaps to manage some of our interest rate risks. We do not use interest rate swaps or any other financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes through borrowings that require us to make interest payments based on SOFR. Our wholly-owned subsidiaries and certain of our vessel-owning subsidiaries are party to secured term loan and revolving credit facilities that bear interest at rates of SOFR plus between 185 and 250 basis points. At March 31, 2024, $284.3 million of our outstanding debt was subject to interest rate swaps and therefore is not exposed to changes in interest rate movements, whereas $475.9 million was subject to variable interest rates. Based on this, a hypothetical increase in SOFR of 100 basis points would result in an increase of $4.8 million in annual interest expense on our indebtedness outstanding as of March 31, 2024.

We use interest rate swaps to reduce our exposure to market risk from changes in interest rates. The principal objective of these contracts is to minimize the risks and costs associated with our floating-rate debt. The Company is exposed to the risk of credit loss in the event of non-performance by the counterparty to the interest rate swap agreements.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

Our primary economic environment is the international shipping market. This market utilizes the U.S. Dollar as its functional currency. Consequently, most of our revenues are in U.S. Dollars although some charter hires are paid in Indonesian Rupiah. Our expenses however are in the currency invoiced by each supplier, and we remit funds in various currencies. We incur some vessel operating expenses and general and administrative costs in foreign currencies, primarily the Euro, Pound Sterling, Danish Kroner, and Polish Zloty, and therefore there is a transactional risk that currency fluctuations could have a negative effect on our cash flows and financial condition. We believe these adverse effects would not be material and we have not entered into any derivative contracts to mitigate our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk during the first quarter of 2024. However, we may enter into derivative or forward contracts to cover our foreign currency exposure in the future.

Inflation

We are exposed to increases in operating costs arising from various vessel operations, including crewing, vessel repair costs, drydocking costs, insurance and fuel prices as well as from general inflation and are subject to fluctuations as a result of market forces. Increases in bunker costs could have a material effect on our future operations if the number and duration of our voyage charters or Contract of Affreightment ("COA") increases. In the case of the 47 vessels owned and commercially managed by us as of March 31, 2024, 33 were employed on time charter and as such it is the charterers who pay for the fuel on those vessels. If our vessels are employed under voyage charters or COA, freight rates are generally sensitive to the price of fuel. However, a further sharp rise in bunker prices may have a temporary negative effect on our results since freight rates generally adjust only after bunker prices settle at a higher level.

Credit Risk

We may be exposed to credit risks in relation to vessel employment and at times we may have multiple vessels employed by one charterer. We consider and evaluate the concentration of credit risk continuously and perform ongoing evaluations of these charterers for credit risk. At March 31, 2024, no more than four of our vessels were employed by the same charterer. We invest our surplus funds with reputable financial institutions, and at March 31, 2024, all such deposits had maturities of no more than three months, in order to provide the Company with flexibility to meet all requirements for working capital and capital investments.

1. General Information and Basis of Presentation

General Information

Navigator Holdings Ltd. (the “Company”), the ultimate parent company of the Navigator Group of companies, is registered in the Republic of the Marshall Islands. The Company has a core business of owning and operating a fleet of liquefied gas carriers. As of March 31, 2024, the Company owned and operated 56 gas carriers (the “Vessels”) each having a cargo capacity of between 3,770 cbm and 38,000 cbm, of which 25 were ethylene and ethane-capable vessels.

The Company entered into a joint venture (the “Navigator Greater Bay Joint Venture”) with Greater Bay Gas Co. Ltd. (“Greater Bay Gas”) in September 2022, which has acquired two 17,000 cbm, 2018-built ethylene-capable liquefied gas carriers and three 22,000 cbm, 2019-built ethylene capable liquefied gas carriers. The vessels are currently commercially managed through the in-house Luna Pool and technically managed by a third party, PG Shipmanagement of Singapore.

The Company owns a 50% share, through a joint venture (the “Export Terminal Joint Venture”), of an ethylene export marine terminal at Morgan’s Point, Texas on the Houston Ship Channel ( the “Ethylene Export Terminal”), capable of exporting in excess of one million tons of ethylene per year.

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in the consolidated financial statements to “our”,” we” and “us” refer to the Company.

Basis of Presentation

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and related Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring items, necessary for a fair statement of financial position, operating results and cash flows have been included in the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2023 included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the SEC on March 27, 2024 (the “2023 Annual Report”). The year-end condensed balance sheet data was derived from the audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of results for the year ending December 31, 2024, or any other future periods.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its subsidiaries and Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”) for which the Company is a primary beneficiary and are also consolidated (please read Note 14—Variable Interest Entities for additional information). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.

The results of operations are subject to seasonal and other fluctuations and are therefore not necessarily indicative of results that may otherwise be expected for the entire year.

Management has evaluated the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and considered the conditions and events that could raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within 12 months after these financial statements are issued. As part of the assessment, management has considered the following;

  • the current financial condition and liquidity sources, including current funds available and forecasted future cash flows;
  • any likely effects of global epidemics or other health crises,
  • the effects of the conflicts in Ukraine and the Gaza region on the Company’s business, including potential escalations or wider implications on other countries as well as possible effects of trade disruptions.
  • environmental regulations such as those affecting vessels' Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (“EEXI”); and
  • the total capital contributions required for the Terminal Expansion Project (as defined below).

Management has determined that it is appropriate to continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

A discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies can be found in the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Company's 2023 Annual Report. There have been no material changes to these policies in the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Operating revenues from Unigas Pool 12,192 13,135
Total operating revenues $ 136,002 $ 134,155

As of March 31, 2024, 36 of the Company’s 47 operated vessels (excluding the nine vessels operating within the independently managed Unigas Pool) were subject to time charters, 24 of which will expire within one year, nine of which will expire within three years, and three of which will expire between three to five years from the balance sheet date (December 31, 2023: 38 of the Company’s 47 operated vessels were subject to time charters, 27 of which will expire within one year, five of which will expire within three years and six of which will expire between three to five years). The estimated undiscounted cash flows for committed time charter revenues that are expected to be received on an annual basis for ongoing time charters, as of March 31, 2024, are as follows:

(in thousands of U.S. dollars)
Within 1 year 242,222
In the second year 68,840
In the third year 23,746

Changes in the contract asset balance at the balance sheet dates reflect income accrued after loading of the cargo commences but before an invoice has been raised to the charterer, as well as changes in the number of the Company’s vessels contracted under voyage charters or contracts of affreightment.

The period opening and closing balance of receivables from voyage charters, including contracts of affreightment, was $18.3 million and $15.2 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023: $5.1 million and $18.3 million, respectively) and is reflected within net accounts receivable on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The amount allocated to costs incurred to fulfill a contract with a charterer, which are costs incurred following the commencement of a contract or charter party but before the loading of the cargo commences, was $0.7 million as of March 31, 2024 (December 31, 2023: $1.0 million) and is reflected within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet.

Voyage and Time charter revenues from Luna Pool collaborative arrangements

Revenues from the Luna Pool collaborative arrangements for the three months ended March 31, 2023 which was accounted for under ASC 808 – Collaborative Arrangements, represent our share of pool net revenues generated by the other Pool Participant’s vessels in the Luna Pool. These include revenues from voyage charters and contracts of affreightment, which are accounted for under ASC 606 in addition to time charter revenues, which are accounted for under ASC 842. Following the acquisition of the final of five vessels by Navigator Greater Bay Joint Venture on April 13, 2023, revenues from the Luna Pool vessels are no longer accounted for under ASC 808 – Collaborative Arrangements.

In March 2020, the Company collaborated with Pacific Gas Pte. Ltd. and Greater Bay Gas Co. Ltd. ("Greater Bay Gas”) to form and manage the Luna Pool. As part of the formation, Luna Pool Agency Limited, (the “Pool Agency”), was incorporated in May 2020. The pool participants jointly own the Pool Agency on an equal basis, and both have equal board representation. As of March 31, 2024, we have recognized the Company’s initial investment of one British pound in the Pool Agency within equity method investments on our consolidated balance sheet. The Pool Agency has no activities other than as a legal custodian of the Luna Pool bank account and there will be no variability in its financial results as it has no income and its minimal operating expenses are reimbursed by the Pool Participants.

Azane Fuel Solutions AS ("Azane")

Azane, a joint venture between ECONNECT Energy AS and Amon Maritime AS, both of Norway, was founded in Norway in 2020 as a company that develops proprietary technology and services for ammonia fuel handling, to facilitate the transition to green fuels for shipping. The Company acquired a 14.5% equity interest in Azane on October 25, 2023, and accounts for it using the equity method. It was recognized initially at cost.

March 2023 Secured Term Loan
On March 20, 2023, the Company entered into a senior secured term loan with Nordea Bank ABP, ABN AMRO Bank N.V. Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB (Publ), and BNP Paribas S.A. to refinance the June 2017 Secured Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility and the October 2016 Secured Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility that were due to mature in June and October 2023 respectively.

The March 2023 Secured Term Loan has a term of six years, maturing in March 2029 and is for a maximum principal amount of $200.0 million which was fully drawn on March 28, 2023. The available facility amount shall be reduced quarterly by an amount of $8.3 million followed by a final balloon payment in March 2029. Interest on amounts drawn is payable at a rate of SOFR plus 210 basis points. This loan facility is secured by first priority mortgages on a total of ten of our owned vessels.

6. Senior Unsecured Bonds

In September 2020, the Company issued senior unsecured bonds in an aggregate principal amount of $100 million with Nordic Trustee AS as the bond trustee (the “2020 Bonds”). The net proceeds of the issuance of the 2020 Bonds were used to redeem in full previously issued bonds. The 2020 Bonds are governed by Norwegian law and listed on the Nordic ABM which is operated and organized by Oslo Børs ASA.

The 2020 Bonds bear interest at a rate of 8.0% per annum and mature on September 10, 2025. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 10 and September 10.

7. Derivative Instruments Accounted for at Fair Value

The following table includes the estimated fair value of those assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024.

December 31, 2023
March 31, 2024
(in thousands)
Fair Value Hierarchy Level Fair Value Hierarchy Level Fair Value Asset Fair Value Asset
Interest rate swap agreements Level 2 $ 14,674 $ 14,227

The Company uses derivative instruments in accordance with its overall risk management policy to mitigate the risk of unfavorable fluctuations in foreign exchange and interest rate movements.

The Company held no derivatives designated as hedges as of December 31, 2023 or March 31, 2024

Fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. The fair value accounting standard establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:

Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

Level 2—Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

Interest Rate risk

The Company also has a number of existing vessel loan facilities with associated fixed interest rate swaps. As of March 31, 2024, the interest rate swaps had a fair value of $14.2 million (December 31, 2023, a fair value of $14.7 million) and there were unrealized losses of $0.4 million (December 31, 2023, an unrealized loss of $7.3 million) on the fair value of the swaps for the three months ended March 31, 2024 (three months ended March 31, 2023, an unrealized gain of $4.3 million).

These fixed interest rate swaps are entered into with the financial institutions which were lenders on the loan facilities. The interest rate payable by the Company under these interest rate swap agreements is between 0.3615% and 2.137%. The interest rate receivable by the Company under these interest rate swap agreements is 3-month SOFR, calculated on a 360-day year basis, which resets every three months.

All interest rate swaps above are remeasured to fair value at each reporting date and have been categorized as level two on the fair value measurement hierarchy. The remeasurement to fair value has no impact on the cash flows at the reporting date. There is no requirement for cash collateral to be placed with the swap providers under these swap agreements and there is no effect on restricted cash as of March 31, 2024.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate risk

All foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities are revalued and are reported in the Company’s functional currency based on the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the period. These foreign currency transactions fluctuate based on the strength of the U.S. Dollar. The remeasurement of all foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities at each reporting date results in unrealized foreign currency exchange differences which do not impact our cash flows.

Credit risk

The Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to its interest rate swap agreements. As of March 31, 2024, the Company is exposed to credit risk as the interest rate swaps were in an asset position from the perspective of the Company. In order to minimize counterparty risk, the Company only enters into derivative transactions with counterparties that are reputable financial institutions, highly rated by a recognized rating agency.

The fair value of our interest rate swap agreements is the estimated amount that we would pay / receive to sell or transfer the swap at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and the current credit worthiness of the swap counterparties. The estimated amount is the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for credit risk. The Company transacts all of these derivative instruments through investment-grade rated financial institutions at the time of the transaction. The amount recorded as a derivative asset or liability could vary by a material amount in the near term if credit markets are volatile or if credit risk were to change significantly.

The fair value of our interest rate swap agreements at the end of each period is most significantly affected by the interest rate implied by the benchmark interest yield curve, including its relative steepness. Interest rates and foreign exchange rates have experienced significant volatility in recent years in both the short and long term. While the fair value of our swap agreements is typically more sensitive to changes in short-term rates, significant changes in long-term benchmark interest, foreign exchange rates and the credit risk of the counterparties or the Company also materially impact the fair values of our swap agreements.

8. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Not Accounted for at Fair Value

The principal financial assets of the Company as of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, consist of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash and accounts receivable. The principal financial liabilities of the Company as of March 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, consist of accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities, secured term loan facilities, revolving credit facilities and the 2020 Bonds and does not include deferred financing costs.

The carrying values of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair value due to the short-term nature or liquidity of these financial instruments.

Fair value is a market-based measurement that is determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. The fair value accounting standard establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation methodologies in measuring fair value:

Level 1—Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2—Include other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the marketplace.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity.

The 2020 Bonds are classified as a level two liability and the fair values have been calculated based on the most recent trades of the bond on the Oslo Børs prior to March 31, 2024. These trades are infrequent and therefore not considered to be an active market.

The fair value of secured term loan facilities and revolving credit facilities is estimated to approximate the carrying value in the balance sheet since they bear a variable interest rate, which is reset quarterly. This has been categorized at level two on the fair value measurement hierarchy as of March 31, 2024.

The following table includes the estimated fair value and carrying value of those assets and liabilities where the fair value does not approximate to carrying value. The table excludes cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities because the fair value approximates carrying value and, for accounts receivable and payable, are due in one year or less.

9. Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of common shares used for calculating basic earnings per share for the effects of all potentially dilutive shares. The following table shows the calculation of both the basic and diluted number of weighted average outstanding shares for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

Restricted share grant activity for the year ended December 31, 2023, and the three months ended March 31, 2024, was as follows:

Number of non-vested restricted shares Weighted average grant date fair value
Weighted average remaining contractual term (years)
Balance as of January 1, 2023 115,693 $ 10.16 1.04
Granted 47,829 12.45
Vested (78,144 ) 10.16
Balance as of December 31, 2023 85,378 $ 11.44 0.81
Vested (41,944 ) 11.92
Balance as of March 31, 2024 43,434 $ 11.49 0.56

We account for forfeitures as they occur. Using the graded straight-line method of expensing the restricted stock grants, the weighted average estimated value of the shares calculated at the date of grant is recognized as compensation cost in the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations over the period to the vesting date.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized $89,124 in share-based compensation costs relating to share grants (three months ended March 31, 2023: $180,355). As of March 31, 2024, there was a total of $951,697 unrecognized compensation costs relating to the expected future vesting of share-based awards (December 31, 2023: $819,919) which are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 0.56 years (December 31, 2023: 0.81 years).

Share options

Share options issued under the 2013 Plan are exercisable between the third and tenth anniversary of the grant date, after which they lapse. The fair value of any option issued is calculated on the date of the grant based on the Black-Scholes valuation model. Expected volatility is based on the historic volatility of the Company’s stock price and other factors. The expected term of the options granted is anticipated to occur in the range between 4 and 6.5 years. The risk-free rate is the rate adopted from the U.S. Government Zero Coupon Bond.

The movements in the outstanding share options during the year ended December 31, 2023, and the three months ended March 31, 2024, were as follows:

Options Number of options outstanding Weighted average exercise price per share Aggregate intrinsic value
Balance as of January 1, 2023 320,856 20.99 $
Forfeited during the year (35,875 ) 22.35
Issuance during the year 262,412 15.45 1,180,854
Balance as of December 31, 2023 547,393 21.08 $
Issuance during the period
Balance as of March 31, 2024 547,393 18.25 $ 1,180,854

The weighted-average remaining contractual term of options outstanding and exercisable at March 31, 2024 was 2.75 years (December 31, 2023: 2.99 years). During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized $83,990 in share-based compensation costs relating to options under the 2013 Plan (three months ended March 31, 2023: a charge of $22,028 relating to options granted under the 2013 plan).

1 We have committed to invest further in terminal infrastructure, such as expanding our existing Ethylene Export Terminal. As at March 31, 2024 the remaining capital contributions required from us to the Export Terminal Joint Venture for the Terminal Expansion Project are expected to be approximately $89.35 million.

2 The Company occupies office space in London with a lease that commenced in January 2022 for a period of 10 years with a mutual break option in January 2027, which is the fifth anniversary of the lease commencement date. The annual gross rent under this lease is approximately $1.1 million, with an initial rent-free period of 27 months, of which 13 months of the rent free period is repayable in the event that the break option is exercised.

The Company entered into a lease for office space in Houston that expires on March 31, 2025. The annual gross rent under this lease is approximately $60,000.

The lease term for our representative office in Gdynia, Poland was revised during 2021 for an amended period to May 31, 2025. The gross rent per year is approximately $64,000.

The Company occupies office space in Copenhagen, Denmark with a lease that commenced in September 2021 that expires in June 2025. The gross rent per year is approximately $180,000.

The weighted average remaining contractual lease term for the above four office leases on March 31, 2024, was 1.94 years (December 31, 2023: 3.88 years).

3 The Navigator Aurora Facility is a loan facility held within a lessor entity (for which legal ownership resides with financial institutions) that we are required to consolidate under U.S. GAAP into our financial statements as a variable interest entity. Please read Note 14—Variable Interest Entities to our consolidated financial statements.

12. Operating Lease Liabilities

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet includes a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a corresponding liability for operating lease contracts where the Company is a lessee. The discount rate used to measure the lease liability presented on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet is the incremental cost of borrowing since the rate implicit in the lease cannot be determined.

The liabilities described below are for the Company’s offices in London, Gdynia, Copenhagen and Houston which are denominated in various currencies. At March 31, 2024, the weighted average discount rate across the four leases was 2.94% (December 31, 2023: 2.95%).

At March 31, 2024, based on the remaining lease liabilities, the weighted average remaining operating lease term was 1.94 years (December 31, 2023: 3.17 years ).

Under ASC 842, the ROU asset is a non-monetary asset and is remeasured into the Company’s reporting currency using the exchange rate for the applicable currency as at the adoption date of ASC 842. The operating lease liability is a monetary liability and is remeasured quarterly using current exchange rates, with changes recognized in a manner consistent with other foreign currency-denominated liabilities in general and administrative expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

A maturity analysis of the annual undiscounted cash flows of the Company’s operating lease liabilities as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024, is presented in the following table:

December 31, 2023
March 31, 2024
(in thousands)
One year $ 1,027 $ 1,283
Two years 1,279 1,185
Three years 1,066 2,058
Four years 1,274
Total undiscounted operating lease commitments $ 4,646 $ 4,526
Less: Discount adjustment (232 ) (215 )
Total operating lease liabilities 4,414 4,311
Less: current portion (914 ) (1,151 )
Operating lease liabilities, non-current portion $ 3,500 $ 3,160

13. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The following table shows the breakdown of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024:

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash
Cash and cash equivalents $ 149,581 $ 163,113

Restricted cash 8,638 8,747
Total cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash $ 158,242 $ 172,240

Amounts included in restricted cash represent cash in blocked deposit accounts that are required to be deposited in accordance with the terms of a number of secured term loans with banking institutions. These funds are not available for daily operational use.

14. Variable Interest Entities

As of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2024, the Company has consolidated 100% of PT Navigator Khatulistiwa, a VIE for which the Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary, i.e. it has a controlling financial interest in this entity with the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and has the right to residual gains or the obligation to absorb losses that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company owns 49% of the PT Navigator Khatulistiwa common stock, all of its secured debt and has voting control. All economic interests in the residual net assets reside with the Company. By virtue of the accounting principle of consolidation, transactions between PT Navigator Khatulistiwa and the Company are eliminated on consolidation.

In October 2019, the Company entered into a sale and leaseback to refinance one of its vessels, Navigator Aurora, with OCY Aurora Ltd., a Maltese limited liability company. OCY Aurora Ltd. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Ocean Yield Malta Limited, whose parent is Ocean Yield ASA, a listed company on the Oslo stock exchange. The Company does not hold any shares or voting rights in OCY Aurora Ltd. Under U.S. GAAP the entity, OCY Aurora Ltd, is considered to be a VIE.

As of December 31, 2023, and March 31, 2024, the Company has consolidated 100% of OCY Aurora Ltd., the lessor variable interest entity (‘‘lessor VIE’’) that we have leased Navigator Aurora from under a sale and leaseback arrangement. The lessor VIE is a wholly-owned, newly formed special purpose vehicle (“SPV”) of a financial institution. The Company has concluded that it has a variable interest in the SPV because the bareboat charter has fixed price call options to acquire the Navigator Aurora from the SPV at various dates throughout the 13 year lease/bareboat charter term, commencing from the fifth year, initially at USD 44.8 million. The call options are considered to be variable interests as each option effectively transfers substantially all of the rewards from Navigator Aurora to us and limits the SPV’s ability to benefit from the rewards of ownership. The SPV is categorized under U.S. GAAP as a VIE and the Company has concluded it is the primary beneficiary and must therefore consolidate the SPV within its financial statements.

The Company has performed an analysis and concluded that the Company exercises power through the exercise of the call options in the lease agreement. The call options, although not an activity of the SPV, if exercised would significantly impact the SPV’s economic performance as the SPV owns no other revenue generating assets. The options transfer to the Company the right to receive benefits as they are agreed at a predetermined price. The SPV is protected from decreases in the value of the vessel, as if the vessel’s market value were to decline, the call option provides the SPV protection up to the point where it would not be economically viable for the Company to exercise the option. In addition, the Company has the power to direct decisions over the activities and care of the vessel which directly impact its value such as for the day-to-day commercial, technical management and operation of the vessel.

We own a 25% and 40% share in equity of Navigator Crewing Philippines Inc. (“NCPI”, “Navigator Crewing”) and Navigator Gas Services Philippines Inc. (“NSSPI”), respectively. These companies were established primarily to provide marine services as principals or agents to ship owners, ship operators, managers engaged in international maritime business and business support services, respectively.

The Company has determined that it has a variable interest in NCPI and NSSPI and is considered to be the primary beneficiary as a result of having a controlling financial interest in the entities and has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact NCPI’s and NSSPI’s economic performance.

As of March 31, 2024, the VIE’s had total assets and liabilities of $174.0 million and $57.7 million respectively which have been included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of that date (December 31, 2023: 179.8 million and $61.4 million, respectively).
