DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS [Abstract]
Description of Business	NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Navios Maritime Partners L.P. (“Navios Partners” or the “Company”), is an international owner and operator of dry cargo vessels, formed on August 7, 2007 under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands. Navios GP L.L.C. (the “General Partner”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Navios Maritime Holdings Inc. (“Navios Holdings”), was also formed on that date to act as the general partner of Navios Partners and received a 2.0% general partner interest in Navios Partners. Navios Partners is engaged in the seaborne transportation services of a wide range of dry cargo commodities including iron ore, coal, grain, fertilizer and also containers, chartering its vessels under medium to longer-term charters. The operations of Navios Partners are managed by Navios ShipManagement Inc., a subsidiary of Navios Holdings (the “Manager”), from its offices in Piraeus, Greece, Singapore and Monaco. Pursuant to the initial public offering (“IPO”) on November 16, 2007, Navios Partners entered into the following agreements: (a) a management agreement with the Manager (the “Management Agreement”), pursuant to which the Manager provides Navios Partners commercial and technical management services; (b) an administrative services agreement with the Manager (the “Administrative Services Agreement”), pursuant to which the Manager provides Navios Partners administrative services; and (c) an omnibus agreement with Navios Holdings (the “Omnibus Agreement”), governing, among other things, when Navios Partners and Navios Holdings may compete against each other as well as rights of first offer on certain drybulk carriers. As of June 30, 2018, there were outstanding: 167,589,764 common units and 3,420,203 general partnership units. As of June 30, 2018, Navios Holdings owned a 20.2% interest in Navios Partners, which included a 2.0% general partner interest. Navios Containers Navios Maritime Containers Inc. (“Navios Containers”), an affiliate of the Company, was established in the Republic of the Marshall Islands on April 28, 2017. The Company is a growth vehicle dedicated to the container sector of the maritime industry. On June 12, 2017, Navios Containers also registered and began trading on the Norwegian Over-The-Counter Market under the ticker NMCI. On June 8, 2017, Navios Containers closed its private placement and issued 10,057,645 shares for total gross proceeds of $50,288 at a subscription price of $5.00 per share. Navios Partners invested $30,000 and received 59.7% of the equity, and Navios Holdings invested $5,000 and received 9.9% of the equity of Navios Containers. Each of Navios Partners and Navios Holdings also received warrants, with a five-year term, for 6.8% and 1.7% of the equity, respectively. Navios Containers used the proceeds to acquire five 4,250 TEU vessels from Navios Partners for a total purchase price of $64,000. These vessels, first acquired by Navios Partners from Rickmers Maritime Trust Pte. (“Rickmers Trust”), are employed on charters with a net daily charter rate of $26,850. The charters expire in 2018 and early 2019. In addition, Navios Containers acquired all the rights under the acquisition agreements entered into between Navios Partners and Rickmers Trust to purchase the remaining nine vessels in the original 14-vessel container fleet. On August 29, 2017, Navios Containers closed its private placement of 10,000,000 shares at a subscription price of $5.00 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of $50,000. Navios Partners invested $10,000 and received 2,000,000 shares. Navios Partners also received warrants, with a five-year term, for 6.8% of the equity. As a result, from August 29, 2017, Navios Containers is considered an affiliate entity and the investment in Navios Containers is accounted for under the equity method due to the Company’s significant influence over Navios Containers. On November 9, 2017, Navios Containers closed a private placement of 9,090,909 shares at a subscription price of $5.50 per share, resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $50,000.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	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 Partners’ consolidated balance sheets, statement of partner’s capital, 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 United States generally accepted accounting principles (“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 Partners’ Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed on Form 20-F with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Change in accounting principles: On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016-18, “Restricted Cash” (“ASU 2016-18”), which updated ASC Topic 230, “Statement of Cash Flows.” ASU 2016-18 required companies to include restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The recognition and measurement guidance for restricted cash is not affected. The Company applied this guidance retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the Company’s financial statements. The reclassification of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows does not impact net income as previously reported or any prior amounts reported on the statements of comprehensive income, or balance sheet. The effect of the retrospective application of this change in accounting principle on the Company’s statement of cash flows for the six month period ended June 30, 2017 resulted in a decrease in net cash provided by operating activities of $444 and a decrease in net cash provided financing activities of $985 with a corresponding decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $1,429. (Please see Note 3). (b) Principles of consolidation: The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements include Navios Partners’ wholly owned subsidiaries incorporated under the laws of Marshall Islands, Malta, and Liberia from their dates of incorporation or, for chartered-in vessels, from the dates charter-in agreements were in effect. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in Navios Partners’ consolidated financial statements. Navios Partners also consolidates entities that are determined to be variable interest entities (“VIE”) as defined in the accounting guidance, if it determines that it is the primary beneficiary. A VIE is defined as a legal entity where either (i) 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, (ii) the equity holders have not provided sufficient equity investment to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or (iii) the voting rights of some investors are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the expected losses of the entity, their rights to receive the expected residual returns of the entity, or both and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights. Based on internal forecasts and projections that take into account reasonably possible changes in our trading performance, management believes that the Company has adequate financial resources to continue in operation and meet its financial commitments, including but not limited to capital expenditures and debt service obligations, for a period of at least twelve months from the date of issuance of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the Company continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements. Investments in Affiliates: Affiliates are entities over which the Company generally has between 20% and 50% of the voting rights, or over which the Company has significant influence, but it does not exercise control. Investments in these entities are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the Company records an investment in the stock of an affiliate at cost, and adjusts the carrying amount for its share of the earnings or losses of the affiliate subsequent to the date of investment and reports the recognized earnings or losses in income. Dividends received from an affiliate reduce the carrying amount of the investment. The Company recognizes gains and losses in earnings for the issuance of shares by its affiliates, provided that the issuance of such shares qualifies as a sale of such shares. When the Company’s share of losses in an affiliate equals or exceeds its interest in the affiliate, the Company does not recognize further losses, unless the Company has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the affiliate. Affiliates included in the financial statements accounted for under the equity method: In the consolidated financial statements of Navios Partners, the following entities are included as affiliates and are accounted for under the equity method for such periods: (i) Navios Containers and its subsidiaries (ownership interest as of June 30, 2018 was 36.0%); (ii) Navios Europe I and its subsidiaries (ownership interest as of June 30, 2018 was 5.0%); and (iii) Navios Europe II and its subsidiaries (ownership interest as of June 30, 2018 was 5.0%). Subsidiaries: Subsidiaries are those entities in which Navios Partners has an interest of more than one half of the voting rights or otherwise has power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity.

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. Revenue is recognized when (or as) the Company transfers promised goods or services to its customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services, which occurs when (or as) the Company satisfies its contractual obligations and transfers control of the promised goods or services to its customers. 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’s contract revenues from time chartering and pooling arrangements are governed by ASC 840 “Leases”. Upon adoption of ASC 606, the timing and recognition of earnings from the pool arrangements and time charter contracts to which the Company is party did not change significantly from previous practice. As a result, the adoption of this standard had no effect on the Company’s opening retained earnings, consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations. The Company’s revenues earned under voyage contracts (revenues for the transportation of cargo) were previously recognized ratably over the estimated relative transit time of each voyage. A voyage was deemed to commence when a vessel was available for loading and was deemed to end upon the completion of the discharge of the current cargo. Estimated losses on voyages are provided for in full at the time such losses become evident. Under a voyage charter, a vessel is provided for the transportation of specific goods between specific ports in return for payment of an agreed upon freight per ton of cargo. Upon adoption of ASC 606, the Company will recognize 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. During 2017, no freight voyages existed and therefore, there was no impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Revenue from voyage contracts amounted to $3,814 and $0 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Revenues from time chartering of vessels are accounted for as operating leases and are thus recognized on a straight-line basis as the average revenue over the rental periods of such charter agreements, as service is performed. A time charter involves placing a vessel at the charterers’ disposal for a period of time during which the charterer uses the vessel in return for the payment of a specified daily hire rate. Under time charters, operating costs such as for crews, maintenance and insurance are typically paid by the owner of the vessel. Revenue from time chartering of vessels amounted to $104,672 and $88,765 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. 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 or when such revenue becomes determinable. For vessels operating in pooling arrangements, the Company earns a portion of total revenues generated by the pool, net of expenses incurred by the pool. The amount allocated to each pool participant vessel, including the Company’s vessels, is determined in accordance with an agreed-upon formula, which is determined by points awarded to each vessel in the pool based on the vessel’s age, design and other performance characteristics. Revenue under pooling arrangements is accounted for as variable rate operating leases on the accrual basis and is recognized when an agreement with the pool exists, price is fixed, service is provided and the collectability is reasonably assured. The allocation of such net revenue may be subject to future adjustments by the pool however, such changes are not expected to be material. 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. Revenue from vessels operating in pooling and profit sharing arrangements amounted to $2,762 and $3,664 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, 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. Adoption of new accounting standards: On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and the related amendments (“ASC 606” or “the new revenue standard”) using the modified retrospective method, requiring to recognize the cumulative effect of adopting this guidance as an adjustment to the 2018 opening balance of retained earnings and not retrospectively adjusting prior periods. Under the new guidance, there is a five-step model to apply to revenue recognition. The five-steps consist of: (1) determination of whether a contract, an agreement between two or more parties that creates legally enforceable rights and obligations, exists; (2) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determination of the transaction price; (4) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognition of revenue when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. As a result of adoption, there was no cumulative impact to the Company’s retained earnings at January 1, 2018. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The Company expects the impact of the adoption of the new standard to be immaterial to its net income on an ongoing basis. In August 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments” (“ASU 2016-15”). This Update addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The Company adopted the new guidance on January 1, 2018 and it did not have a material impact on the consolidated results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In January 2017, FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2017-03 “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (Topic 250) and Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323).” The ASU amends the Codification for SEC staff announcements made at recent Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) meetings. The SEC guidance that specifically relates to our Consolidate Financial Statement was from the September 2016 meeting, where the SEC staff expressed its expectations about the extent of disclosures registrants should make about the effects of the new FASB guidance as well as any amendments issued prior to adoption, on revenue (ASU 2014-09), leases (ASU 2016-02) and credit losses on financial instruments (ASU 2016-13) in accordance with SAB Topic 11.M. Registrants are required to disclose the effect that recently issued accounting standards will have on their financial statements when adopted in a future period. In cases where a registrant cannot reasonably estimate the impact of the adoption, then additional qualitative disclosures should be considered. The ASU incorporates these SEC staff views into ASC 250 and adds references to that guidance in the transition paragraphs of each of the three new standards. The adoption of this new accounting guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”. ASU 2016-02 will apply to both capital (or finance) leases and operating leases. According to ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize assets (right of use asset) and liabilities (lease liability) on the balance sheet for both types of leases – capital (or finance) leases and operating leases – with terms greater than 12 months. ASU 2016 – 02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. This guidance requires companies to identify lease and non-lease components of a lease agreement. Lease components relate to the right to use the leased asset and non-lease components relate to payments for goods or services that are transferred separately from the right to use the underlying asset. Total lease consideration is allocated to lease and non-lease components on a relative standalone basis. The recognition of revenues related to lease components will be governed by ASC 842 while revenue related to non-lease components will be subject to ASC 606. In January 2018, the FASB issued a proposed amendment to ASU 842, Leases, that would provide an entity the optional transition method to initially account for the impact of the adoption with a cumulative adjustment to accumulated deficit on the effective date of the ASU, January 1, 2019 rather than January 1, 2017, which would eliminate the need to restate amounts presented prior to January 1, 2019. In addition, this proposed amendment, lessors can elect, as a practical expedient, not to allocate the total consideration to lease and non-lease components based on their relative standalone selling prices. If adopted, this practical expedient will allow lessors to elect a combined single lease component presentation if (i) the timing and pattern of the revenue recognition of the combined single lease component is the same, and (ii) the related lease component and, the combined single lease component would be classified as an operating lease. ASC 842 provides practical expedients that allow entities to not (i) reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are considered or contain leases; (ii) reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and (iii) reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. The Company plans to adopt the standard on January 1, 2019 and expects to elect the use of practical expedients. If the proposed amendment to ASU 842 is adopted, the Company would elect the transition method for adoption as described above. The Company has not completed its analysis of this ASU. Based on a preliminary assessment, the Company is expecting that the adoption will not have a material effect on its financial statements since the Company is primarily a lessor and the changes are fairly minor. If the proposed practical expedient mentioned above is adopted and elected, goods and services embedded in the charter contract that qualify as non-lease components will be combined under a single lease component presentation. However, without the proposed practical expedient, the Company expects that it will continue to recognize the lease revenue component using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance. The components of the charter hire that are categorized as lease components will generally be a fixed rate per day with revenue recognized straight line over the lease contract. Other goods and services that are categorized as non-lease components will be recognized at either a point in time or over time based on the pattern of transfer of the underlying goods or services to our charterers. The Company is continuing its assessment of other miscellaneous leases and may identify additional impacts this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures. The Company currently does not have any other miscellaneous leases that are greater than 12 months and the Company is the lessee that would be impacted by the adoption of this standard.

On January 12, 2017, Navios Partners sold the MSC Cristina to an unrelated third party for a net sale price of $125,000. The aggregate net carrying amount of the vessel amounted to $142,193 as at the date of sale. The loss on sale of the vessel was $1,260 (see Note 18 — Other expense). Vessel impairment losses As of December 31, 2017, Navios Partners concluded that step two of the impairment assessment was required for one of its vessels held and used, as the undiscounted projected net operating cash flows did not exceed the carrying value. As a result, the Company recorded an impairment loss of $30,304 for this vessel, being the difference between the fair value and the vessel’s carrying value. On November 27, 2017, Navios Partners entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with an unrelated third party for the disposal of the Navios Gemini S for a net sale price of $4,078. As of December 31, 2017, the Company had a current expectation that the vessel would be sold before the end of its previously estimated useful life, and as a result performed an impairment test of the specific asset group. An impairment loss of $2,373 was recognized under the caption “Vessel impairment losses” in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as of December 31, 2017. The vessel was sold on December 21, 2017. On January 9, 2017, Navios Partners entered into a Memorandum of Agreement with an unrelated third party for the disposal of the Navios Apollon for a net sale price of $4,750. The vessel was subject to an existing time charter with an unrelated charterer and was not immediately available for sale and therefore did not qualify as an asset held for sale as of December 31, 2016. As of December 31, 2016, the Company had a current expectation that the vessel would be sold before the end of its previously estimated useful life, and as a result performed an impairment test of the specific asset group.

Term Loan B Facility: In June 2013, Navios Partners completed the issuance of the $250,000 Term Loan B Facility. On October 31, 2013 and November 1, 2013, Navios Partners completed the issuance of an $189,500 add-on to its existing Term Loan B Facility. On March 14, 2017, Navios Partners completed the issuance of a new $405,000 Term Loan B Facility. The new Term Loan B Facility bears an interest rate of LIBOR plus 500 bps, it is set to mature on September 14, 2020 and is repayable in equal quarterly installments of 1.25% of the initial principal amount. Navios Partners used the net proceeds of the Term Loan B Facility to: (i) refinance the existing Term Loan B; and (ii) pay fees and expenses related to the Term Loan B. Following the refinancing of the Term Loan B Facility, an amount of $1,880 and $1,275, was written-off from the deferred finance fees and discount, respectively. On August 10, 2017, Navios Partners completed the issuance of a $53,000 add-on to its existing Term Loan B Facility. The add-on to the Term Loan B Facility bore the same terms as the Term Loan B Facility. Navios Partners used the net proceeds to partially finance the acquisition of three vessels. The Term Loan B Facility is secured by first priority mortgages covering certain vessels owned by subsidiaries of Navios Partners, in addition to other collateral, and guaranteed by each subsidiary of Navios Partners. The Term Loan B Facility requires maintenance of a loan to value ratio of 0.8 to 1.0, and other restrictive covenants customary for facilities of this type (subject to negotiated exceptions and baskets), including restrictions on indebtedness, liens, acquisitions and investments, restricted payments and dispositions. The Term Loan B Facility also provides for customary events of default, prepayment and cure provisions. As of June 30, 2018, the outstanding balance of the Term Loan B Facility was $421,289, net of discount of $8,715, and is repayable in eight quarterly installments of $5,733 with a final payment of $384,138 on the last repayment date. The final maturity date is September 14, 2020. BNP Credit Facility: On June 26, 2017, Navios Partners entered into a new credit facility with BNP PARIBAS (the “BNP Credit Facility”) of up to $32,000 (divided into two tranches) in order to finance a portion of the purchase price of the Navios Ace and the Navios Sol. On June 28, 2017, the first tranche of BNP Credit Facility of $17,000 was drawn. On July 18, 2017, the second tranche of BNP Credit Facility of $15,000 was drawn. As of June 30, 2018, the outstanding balance of the first and second tranche of the BNP Credit Facility was $29,205, in total, of which the first tranche is repayable in 12 equal consecutive quarterly installments of $386 each, with a final balloon payment of $10,824 to be repaid on the last repayment date and the second tranche is repayable in 13 equal consecutive installments of $417 each, with a final balloon payment of $8,328 to be repaid on the last repayment date. The facility matures with respect to the first and second tranches in the second and third quarter of 2021, respectively, and bears interest at LIBOR plus 300 bps per annum. DVB Credit Facility: On June 28, 2017, Navios Partners entered into a new credit facility with DVB Bank S.E. (the “DVB Credit Facility”) of up to $39,000 (divided into four tranches) in order to refinance the Commerzbank/DVB Credit Facility dated July 2012 and an additional amount of $7,000 to partially finance the acquisition of the Navios Prosperity I. The facility matures in the third and second quarter of 2020 and bears interest at LIBOR plus 310 bps per annum.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS [ABSTRACT]
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	NOTE 8 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The carrying value amounts of many of Navios Partners’ financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable and amounts due to related parties approximate their fair value due primarily to the short-term maturity of the related instruments. The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument: Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for interest bearing deposits approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of these investments. Restricted Cash: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for interest bearing deposits approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of these investments. Other long-term debt, net: The book value has been adjusted to reflect the net presentation of deferred finance costs. The outstanding balance of floating rate loans continues to approximate its fair value, excluding the effect of any deferred finance costs. Term Loan B Facility: The fair value of the Company’s debt is estimated based on currently available debt with similar contract terms, interest rate and remaining maturities, as well as taking into account our creditworthiness. The book value has been adjusted to reflect the net presentation of deferred finance fees. Amounts due from related parties, long-term: The carrying amount of due from related parties long-term reported in the balance sheet approximates its fair value due to the long-term nature of these receivables. Amounts due from related parties, short-term: The carrying amount of due from related parties, short-term reported in the balance sheet approximates its fair value due to the short-term nature of these receivables. Loans receivable from affiliates: The carrying amount of the fixed rate loan approximates its fair value. Notes receivable, net of current portion: The carrying amount of the fixed rate notes receivable approximate its fair value. Receivables from affiliates: The carrying amount of the long-term receivable from affiliates approximates its fair value. The estimated fair values of the Navios Partners’ financial instruments are as follows: June 30, 2018 December 31, 2017 Book Value Fair Value Book Value Fair Value Cash and cash equivalents $40,577 $40,577 $24,047 $24,047 Restricted cash $402 $402 $5,886 $5,886 Loans receivable from affiliates $11,861 $11,861 $11,706 $11,706 Amounts due from related parties, long-term $44,009 $44,009 $34,891 $34,891 Amounts due from related parties, short-term $11,735 $11,735 $10,545 $10,545 Term Loan B Facility, net $(416,920) $(430,542) $(425,144) $(441,471) Other long-term debt, net $(77,542) $(78,205) $(68,319) $(69,161) Notes receivable, net of current portion $13,760 $13,760 $15,897 $15,897 Receivable from affiliates $4,386 $4,386 $4,253 $4,253 Fair Value Measurements The estimated fair value of our financial instruments that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, categorized based upon the fair value hierarchy, are as follows: Level I: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that we have the ability to access. Valuation of these items does not entail a significant amount of judgment. Level II: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level I that are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with market data at the measurement date.

SEGMENT INFORMATION [Abstract]
Segment Information	NOTE 10 – SEGMENT INFORMATION Up to August 29, 2017, the Company had two reportable segments from which it derived its revenues: Navios Partners Operations and Navios Containers Operations. The reportable segments reflect the internal organization of the Company whereby the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) reviews the discrete financial information of the Navios Partners’ controlled fleet and the Navios Containers’ controlled fleet. The Company measures segment performance based on net (loss)/income attributable to Navios Partners common unitholders. Summarized financial information concerning each of the Company’s reportable segments is as follows: Navios Partners Operations Navios Containers Operations Total Three Month Three Month Three Month Period from Eliminations Three Month Three Month Period Ended Period Ended Period Ended April 28, 2017 for the period Period Ended Period Ended June 30, June 30, June 30, June 30, from April 28, 2017 to June 30, June 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 June 30, 2017 2018 2017 Revenue $58,196 $46,916 $— $3,102 — $58,196 $50,018 Management fees (17,381) (14,760) — (702) — (17,381) (15,462) Interest expense and finance cost, net (10,794) (8,138) — (80) 73 (10,794) (8,145) Depreciation and amortization (14,355) (17,360) — (1,320) — (14,355) (18,680) Net (loss)/ income (29,533) 7,987 — 881 (4,423) (29,533) 4,445 Total assets 1,307,310 1,275,942 — 97,333 (45,723) 1,307,310 1,327,552 Capital expenditures (35,938) (95,247) — (44,567) 30,000 (35,938) (109,814) Investment in affiliates 69,237 31,192 — — (30,000) 69,237 1,192 Cash and cash equivalents 40,577 44,813 — 34,936 — 40,577 79,749 Restricted cash 402 6,299 — — — 402 6,299 Long-term debt (including current and non-current portion), net $494,462 $441,347 — $33,670 — $494,462 $475,017 Navios Partners Operations Navios Containers Operations Total Six Month Six Month Six Month Period from Eliminations Six Month Six Month Period Ended Period Ended Period Ended April 28, 2017 for the period Period Ended Period Ended June 30, June 30, June 30, to June 30, from April 28, 2017 to June 30, June 30, 2018 2017 2018 2017 June 30, 2017 2018 2017 Revenue $111,248 $89,327 $— $3,102 — $111,248 $94,429 Management fees (34,072) (29,103) — (702) — (34,072) (29,805) Interest expense and finance cost, net (20,647) (18,493) — (80) 73 (20,647) (18,500) Depreciation and amortization (29,272) (34,135) — (1,320) — (29,272) (35,455) Net (loss)/ income (24,055) 2,334 — 881 (4,423) (24,055) (1,208) Total assets 1,307,310 1,275,942 — 97,333 (45,723) 1,307,310 1,327,552 Capital expenditures (36,285) 2,798 — (44,567) 30,000 (36,285) (11,769) Investment in affiliates 69,237 31,192 — — (30,000) 69,237 1,192 Cash and cash equivalents 40,577 44,813 — 34,936 — 40,577 79,749 Restricted cash 402 6,299 — — — 402 6,299 Long-term debt (including current and non-current portion), net $494,462 $441,347 — $33,670 — $494,462 $475,017 Navios Partners reports financial information and evaluates its operations by charter revenues. Navios Partners does not use discrete financial information to evaluate operating results for each type of charter or by sector. As a result, management reviews operating results solely by revenue per day and operating results of the fleet and thus Navios Partners has determined that it operates under one reportable segment. The following table sets out operating revenue by geographic region for Navios Partners’ reportable segment. Revenue is allocated on the basis of the geographic region in which the customer is located. Drybulk and containerships operate worldwide. Revenues from specific geographic region, which contribute over 10% of total revenue, are disclosed separately. Vessels operate on a worldwide basis and are not restricted to specific locations. Accordingly, it is not possible to allocate the assets of these operations to specific countries.

INCOME TAXES [Abstract]
Income Taxes	NOTE 11 – INCOME TAXES Marshall Islands, Malta and Liberia do not impose a tax on international shipping income. Under the laws of Marshall Islands, Malta and Liberia, the countries of the vessel-owning subsidiaries’ incorporation and vessels’ registration, the vessel-owning subsidiaries are subject to registration and tonnage taxes, which have been included in vessel operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated Statements of Operations. In accordance with the currently applicable Greek law, foreign flagged vessels that are managed by Greek or foreign ship management companies having established an office in Greece are subject to duties towards the Greek state, which are calculated on the basis of the relevant vessel’s tonnage. The payment of said duties exhausts the tax liability of the foreign ship owning company and the relevant manager against any tax, duty, charge or contribution payable on income from the exploitation of the foreign flagged vessel. Pursuant to Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code of the United States, U.S. source income from the international operation of ships is generally exempt from U.S. income tax if the company operating the ships meets certain incorporation and ownership requirements. Among other things, in order to qualify for this exemption, the company operating the ships must be incorporated in a country, which grants an equivalent exemption from income taxes to U.S. corporations. All the vessel-owning subsidiaries satisfy these initial criteria. In addition, these companies must meet an ownership test. The management of Navios Partners believes that this ownership test was satisfied prior to the IPO by virtue of a special rule applicable to situations where the ship operating companies are beneficially owned by a publicly traded company. Although not free from doubt, management also believes that the ownership test will be satisfied based on the trading volume and ownership of Navios Partners’ units, but no assurance can be given that this will remain so in the future.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES [Abstract]
Commitments And Contingencies	NOTE 12 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Navios Partners 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 Navios Partners believes that a liability may be probable, and for which the amounts are reasonably estimable, based upon facts known at the date the financial statements were prepared. Management believes the ultimate disposition of these matters will be immaterial individually and in the aggregate to Navios Partners’ financial position, results of operations or liquidity. On April 27, 2018, Navios Partners agreed to sell the YM Utmost and the YM Unity, two 2006-built Containerships of 8,204 TEU each, to its affiliate, Navios Containers, for a total sale price of $67,000. The transaction was unanimously approved by the Conflicts Committee of the Board of Directors of Navios Partners. The sale was completed on July 2, 2018. Navios Partners used a portion of the sale proceeds to repay $20,200 of the DVB Credit Facility outstanding balance. As of June 30, 2018, the Company is contingently liable to pay the amount of $20,200. In November 2017, Navios Partners entered into a 10-year bareboat charter-in agreement for a Panamax vessel of approximately 81,000 dwt. Navios Partners has the option to acquire the vessel after the end of the fourth year. The vessel is expected to be delivered within the second half of 2019. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company paid a deposit of $2,770, presented under the caption “Other long-term assets”. As of June 30, 2018, the Company is contingently liable to pay an additional deposit of $2,770 during the fourth quarter of 2018.

CASH DISTRIBUTIONS AND EARNINGS PER UNIT [Abstract]
Cash Distributions and Earnings Per Unit	NOTE 16 – CASH DISTRIBUTIONS AND EARNINGS PER UNIT Navios Partners intends to make distributions to the holders of common units on a quarterly basis, to the extent and as may be declared by the Board and to the extent it has sufficient cash on hand to pay the distribution after the Company establishes cash reserves and pays fees and expenses. There is no guarantee that Navios Partners will pay a quarterly distribution on the common units in any quarter. On February 3, 2016, Navios Partners announced that its Board of Directors decided to suspend the quarterly cash distributions to its unitholders, including the distribution for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. In March 2018, the board determined to reinstate a distribution and any continued distribution will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors, taking into consideration the terms of its partnership agreement. The Company is prohibited from making any distributions to unitholders if it would cause an event of default, or an event of default exists, under its existing credit facilities. There is incentive distribution rights held by the General Partner, which are analyzed as follows: Marginal Percentage Interest in Distributions Total Quarterly Distribution Target Amount Common Unitholders General Partner Minimum Quarterly Distribution up to $0.35 98% 2% First Target Distribution up to $0.4025 98% 2% Second Target Distribution above $0.4025 up to $0.4375 85% 15% Third Target Distribution above $0.4375 up to $0.525 75% 25% Thereafter above $0.525 50% 50% The first 98% of the quarterly distribution is paid to all common units holders. The incentive distributions rights (held by the General Partner) apply only after a minimum quarterly distribution of $0.4025. In April 2018, the Board of Directors of Navios Partners authorized its quarterly cash distribution for the three month period ended March 31, 2018 of $0.02 per unit. The distribution was paid on May 14, 2018 to all unitholders of record of common and general partner units on May 10, 2018. The aggregate amount of the declared distribution was $3,420. In July 2018, the Board of Directors of Navios Partners authorized its quarterly cash distribution for the three month period ended June 30, 2018 of $0.02 per unit. The distribution is payable on August 10, 2018 to all unitholders of record as of August 7, 2018. The aggregate amount of the declared distribution is anticipated to be $3,420. Navios Partners calculates earnings per unit by allocating reported net income for each period to each class of units based on the distribution waterfall for available cash specified in Navios Partners’ partnership agreement, net of the unallocated earnings (or losses). Basic earnings/(losses) per unit is determined by dividing net income/(loss) attributable to Navios Partners common unitholders by the weighted average number of common units outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per unit is calculated in the same manner as basic earnings per unit, except that the weighted average number of outstanding units increased to include the dilutive effect of outstanding unit options or phantom units. Net loss per unit undistributed is determined by taking the distributions in excess of net income and allocating between common units and general partner units on a 98%-2% basis. There were no options or phantom units outstanding during the six month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. The calculations of the basic and diluted earnings per unit are presented below. Three Month Period Ended Six Month Period Ended June 30, 2018 June 30, 2017 June 30, 2018 June 30, 2017 Net (loss)/ income $(29,533) $4,090 $(24,055) $(1,563) (Loss)/ Earnings attributable to: Common unit holders (28,942) 4,009 (23,574) (1,532) Weighted average units outstanding (basic and diluted) Common unit holders 164,866,385 145,396,276 159,675,656 119,013,847 (Loss)/ Earnings per unit (basic and diluted): Common unit holders $(0.18) $0.03 $(0.15) $(0.01) Earnings per unit — distributed (basic and diluted): Common unit holders $0.02 $— $0.04 $— (Loss)/ Earnings per unit — undistributed (basic and diluted): Common unit holders $(0.20) $0.03 $(0.19) $(0.01) Potential common units of 1,353,335 and 2,040,000 relating to unvested restricted common units for each of the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e. those that increase income per unit or decrease loss per unit) and are therefore excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per unit.

In July 2018, Navios Partners agreed to acquire the Navios Sphera, a 2016-built Panamax of 84,872 dwt and the Navios Mars, a 2016-built Capesize vessel of 181,259 dwt from its affiliate, Navios Holdings, for a purchase price of $79,000. The acquisition of the vessels is expected to be partially financed with a $44,000 new term loan facility and the balance with available cash. The loan has an amortization profile of five years, matures in July 2023 and bears interest at LIBOR plus 290 bps per annum. On July 2, 2018, Navios Partners sold to its affiliate, Navios Containers, the YM Unity and the YM Utmost, two 2006-built containerships of 8,204 TEU each, for a sale price of $67,000. The loss on sale of the vessels amounted to $37,860 and was recognized in the second quarter of 2018. Navios Partners used a portion of the sale proceeds to repay $20,200 of its outstanding debt. As a result of the sales, the YM Unity and the YM Utmost were released from security of the Term Loan B Facility. In exchange, four drybulk vessels and $4,000 in cash substituted the two vessels as collateral to the Term Loan B Facility.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES [Abstract]
Basis Of Presentation	(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 Partners’ consolidated balance sheets, statement of partner’s capital, 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 United States generally accepted accounting principles (“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 Partners’ Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed on Form 20-F with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
Change in Accounting Principle	Change in accounting principles: On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2016-18, “Restricted Cash” (“ASU 2016-18”), which updated ASC Topic 230, “Statement of Cash Flows.” ASU 2016-18 required companies to include restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The recognition and measurement guidance for restricted cash is not affected. The Company applied this guidance retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the Company’s financial statements. The reclassification of restricted cash in the statement of cash flows does not impact net income as previously reported or any prior amounts reported on the statements of comprehensive income, or balance sheet. The effect of the retrospective application of this change in accounting principle on the Company’s statement of cash flows for the six month period ended June 30, 2017 resulted in a decrease in net cash provided by operating activities of $444 and a decrease in net cash provided financing activities of $985 with a corresponding decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $1,429. (Please see Note 3).
Principles of consolidation	(b) Principles of consolidation: The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements include Navios Partners’ wholly owned subsidiaries incorporated under the laws of Marshall Islands, Malta, and Liberia from their dates of incorporation or, for chartered-in vessels, from the dates charter-in agreements were in effect. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in Navios Partners’ consolidated financial statements. Navios Partners also consolidates entities that are determined to be variable interest entities (“VIE”) as defined in the accounting guidance, if it determines that it is the primary beneficiary. A VIE is defined as a legal entity where either (i) 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, (ii) the equity holders have not provided sufficient equity investment to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support, or (iii) the voting rights of some investors are not proportional to their obligations to absorb the expected losses of the entity, their rights to receive the expected residual returns of the entity, or both and substantially all of the entity’s activities either involve or are conducted on behalf of an investor that has disproportionately few voting rights. Based on internal forecasts and projections that take into account reasonably possible changes in our trading performance, management believes that the Company has adequate financial resources to continue in operation and meet its financial commitments, including but not limited to capital expenditures and debt service obligations, for a period of at least twelve months from the date of issuance of these interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the Company continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.
Investments in Affiliates	Investments in Affiliates: Affiliates are entities over which the Company generally has between 20% and 50% of the voting rights, or over which the Company has significant influence, but it does not exercise control. Investments in these entities are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the Company records an investment in the stock of an affiliate at cost, and adjusts the carrying amount for its share of the earnings or losses of the affiliate subsequent to the date of investment and reports the recognized earnings or losses in income. Dividends received from an affiliate reduce the carrying amount of the investment. The Company recognizes gains and losses in earnings for the issuance of shares by its affiliates, provided that the issuance of such shares qualifies as a sale of such shares. When the Company’s share of losses in an affiliate equals or exceeds its interest in the affiliate, the Company does not recognize further losses, unless the Company has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the affiliate. Affiliates included in the financial statements accounted for under the equity method: In the consolidated financial statements of Navios Partners, the following entities are included as affiliates and are accounted for under the equity method for such periods: (i) Navios Containers and its subsidiaries (ownership interest as of June 30, 2018 was 36.0%); (ii) Navios Europe I and its subsidiaries (ownership interest as of June 30, 2018 was 5.0%); and (iii) Navios Europe II and its subsidiaries (ownership interest as of June 30, 2018 was 5.0%).
Subsidiaries	Subsidiaries: Subsidiaries are those entities in which Navios Partners has an interest of more than one half of the voting rights or otherwise has power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity.

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. Revenue is recognized when (or as) the Company transfers promised goods or services to its customers in amounts that reflect the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services, which occurs when (or as) the Company satisfies its contractual obligations and transfers control of the promised goods or services to its customers. 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’s contract revenues from time chartering and pooling arrangements are governed by ASC 840 “Leases”. Upon adoption of ASC 606, the timing and recognition of earnings from the pool arrangements and time charter contracts to which the Company is party did not change significantly from previous practice. As a result, the adoption of this standard had no effect on the Company’s opening retained earnings, consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of operations. The Company’s revenues earned under voyage contracts (revenues for the transportation of cargo) were previously recognized ratably over the estimated relative transit time of each voyage. A voyage was deemed to commence when a vessel was available for loading and was deemed to end upon the completion of the discharge of the current cargo. Estimated losses on voyages are provided for in full at the time such losses become evident. Under a voyage charter, a vessel is provided for the transportation of specific goods between specific ports in return for payment of an agreed upon freight per ton of cargo. Upon adoption of ASC 606, the Company will recognize 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. During 2017, no freight voyages existed and therefore, there was no impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Revenue from voyage contracts amounted to $3,814 and $0 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Revenues from time chartering of vessels are accounted for as operating leases and are thus recognized on a straight-line basis as the average revenue over the rental periods of such charter agreements, as service is performed. A time charter involves placing a vessel at the charterers’ disposal for a period of time during which the charterer uses the vessel in return for the payment of a specified daily hire rate. Under time charters, operating costs such as for crews, maintenance and insurance are typically paid by the owner of the vessel. Revenue from time chartering of vessels amounted to $104,672 and $88,765 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. 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 or when such revenue becomes determinable. For vessels operating in pooling arrangements, the Company earns a portion of total revenues generated by the pool, net of expenses incurred by the pool. The amount allocated to each pool participant vessel, including the Company’s vessels, is determined in accordance with an agreed-upon formula, which is determined by points awarded to each vessel in the pool based on the vessel’s age, design and other performance characteristics. Revenue under pooling arrangements is accounted for as variable rate operating leases on the accrual basis and is recognized when an agreement with the pool exists, price is fixed, service is provided and the collectability is reasonably assured. The allocation of such net revenue may be subject to future adjustments by the pool however, such changes are not expected to be material. 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. Revenue from vessels operating in pooling and profit sharing arrangements amounted to $2,762 and $3,664 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, 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.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	Adoption of new accounting standards: On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and the related amendments (“ASC 606” or “the new revenue standard”) using the modified retrospective method, requiring to recognize the cumulative effect of adopting this guidance as an adjustment to the 2018 opening balance of retained earnings and not retrospectively adjusting prior periods. Under the new guidance, there is a five-step model to apply to revenue recognition. The five-steps consist of: (1) determination of whether a contract, an agreement between two or more parties that creates legally enforceable rights and obligations, exists; (2) identification of the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determination of the transaction price; (4) allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognition of revenue when (or as) the performance obligation is satisfied. As a result of adoption, there was no cumulative impact to the Company’s retained earnings at January 1, 2018. The comparative information has not been restated and continues to be reported under the accounting standards in effect for those periods. The Company expects the impact of the adoption of the new standard to be immaterial to its net income on an ongoing basis. In August 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments” (“ASU 2016-15”). This Update addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice. The Company adopted the new guidance on January 1, 2018 and it did not have a material impact on the consolidated results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows. Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In January 2017, FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2017-03 “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections (Topic 250) and Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323).” The ASU amends the Codification for SEC staff announcements made at recent Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) meetings. The SEC guidance that specifically relates to our Consolidate Financial Statement was from the September 2016 meeting, where the SEC staff expressed its expectations about the extent of disclosures registrants should make about the effects of the new FASB guidance as well as any amendments issued prior to adoption, on revenue (ASU 2014-09), leases (ASU 2016-02) and credit losses on financial instruments (ASU 2016-13) in accordance with SAB Topic 11.M. Registrants are required to disclose the effect that recently issued accounting standards will have on their financial statements when adopted in a future period. In cases where a registrant cannot reasonably estimate the impact of the adoption, then additional qualitative disclosures should be considered. The ASU incorporates these SEC staff views into ASC 250 and adds references to that guidance in the transition paragraphs of each of the three new standards. The adoption of this new accounting guidance did not have a material effect on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. In February 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”. ASU 2016-02 will apply to both capital (or finance) leases and operating leases. According to ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize assets (right of use asset) and liabilities (lease liability) on the balance sheet for both types of leases – capital (or finance) leases and operating leases – with terms greater than 12 months. ASU 2016 – 02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early application is permitted. This guidance requires companies to identify lease and non-lease components of a lease agreement. Lease components relate to the right to use the leased asset and non-lease components relate to payments for goods or services that are transferred separately from the right to use the underlying asset. Total lease consideration is allocated to lease and non-lease components on a relative standalone basis. The recognition of revenues related to lease components will be governed by ASC 842 while revenue related to non-lease components will be subject to ASC 606. In January 2018, the FASB issued a proposed amendment to ASU 842, Leases, that would provide an entity the optional transition method to initially account for the impact of the adoption with a cumulative adjustment to accumulated deficit on the effective date of the ASU, January 1, 2019 rather than January 1, 2017, which would eliminate the need to restate amounts presented prior to January 1, 2019. In addition, this proposed amendment, lessors can elect, as a practical expedient, not to allocate the total consideration to lease and non-lease components based on their relative standalone selling prices. If adopted, this practical expedient will allow lessors to elect a combined single lease component presentation if (i) the timing and pattern of the revenue recognition of the combined single lease component is the same, and (ii) the related lease component and, the combined single lease component would be classified as an operating lease. ASC 842 provides practical expedients that allow entities to not (i) reassess whether any expired or existing contracts are considered or contain leases; (ii) reassess the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and (iii) reassess initial direct costs for any existing leases. The Company plans to adopt the standard on January 1, 2019 and expects to elect the use of practical expedients. If the proposed amendment to ASU 842 is adopted, the Company would elect the transition method for adoption as described above. The Company has not completed its analysis of this ASU. Based on a preliminary assessment, the Company is expecting that the adoption will not have a material effect on its financial statements since the Company is primarily a lessor and the changes are fairly minor. If the proposed practical expedient mentioned above is adopted and elected, goods and services embedded in the charter contract that qualify as non-lease components will be combined under a single lease component presentation. However, without the proposed practical expedient, the Company expects that it will continue to recognize the lease revenue component using an approach that is substantially equivalent to existing guidance. The components of the charter hire that are categorized as lease components will generally be a fixed rate per day with revenue recognized straight line over the lease contract. Other goods and services that are categorized as non-lease components will be recognized at either a point in time or over time based on the pattern of transfer of the underlying goods or services to our charterers. The Company is continuing its assessment of other miscellaneous leases and may identify additional impacts this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures. The Company currently does not have any other miscellaneous leases that are greater than 12 months and the Company is the lessee that would be impacted by the adoption of this standard.
