Shares of Navios Maritime Partners LP (NYSE: NMM) surged 5.05% in pre-market trading on Thursday following the release of its impressive second-quarter 2025 financial results, which exceeded analyst expectations across key metrics.
The international owner and operator of dry cargo and tanker vessels reported Q2 revenue of $327.6 million, surpassing the analyst consensus estimate of $309.60 million. Adjusted earnings per share came in at $2.15, significantly beating the expected $1.74. The company's adjusted EBITDA for the quarter reached $172.6 million, also topping estimates.
Angeliki Frangou, Chairwoman and CEO of Navios Partners, expressed satisfaction with the results, stating, "I am pleased with the results for the second quarter of 2025, in which we reported revenue of $327.6 million, EBITDA of $178.2 million and net income of $69.9 million. Earnings per common unit were $2.34 for the quarter."
The company's strong performance was attributed to a robust shipping market, despite global economic uncertainties. Frangou noted, "Global economies have been surprisingly robust given the uncertain macro-environment. In addition, we are witnessing the creation and reshaping of trade patterns with longer distances due to the war between Ukraine and Russia, continued attacks in the Red Sea, and new and evolving world tariff regime."
Looking ahead, Navios Partners provided an optimistic outlook, reporting $3.1 billion in contracted revenue through 2037. The company has fixed 75.2% of its available days for the last six months of 2025 and expects contracted revenue of $519.2 million for this period. For 2026, 43.2% of available days are fixed with anticipated revenue of $706.4 million.
