Navios Navy Adds Battleships

Irrepressible, the navy known as Navios last week acquired through its tanker subsidiary, Navios Maritime Acquisition (“Acquisition”), a fleet of seven VLCCs from Fred Cheng’s Shinyo International Group Limited. The aggregate purchase price was $587 million and the acquisition was done as a securities purchase agreement primarily to allow for the assumption of debt. The transaction will be financed with bank debt of $453 million, representing approximately 78% of the purchase price, with cash of $123 million (21%) and through the issuance of $11 million of Acquisition’s shares to the seller. In effect, third parties are funding approximately 80% of the purchase price, a remarkable achievement these days.
