Navios Maritime Partners L.P.
NMMNavios Maritime Partners L.P.'s price has outrun its earnings. +85.1% in a year against EPS −19.9% — the market is paying now for delivery later.
The sharpest disagreement: the price moved +85.1% in a year while annual EPS moved −19.9% — the difference is re-rating, and re-rating has to be repaid with earnings.
The price is in a confirmed uptrend (27 weeks in) while the P/E sits at the 97th percentile of its own 4-year range. Underneath, the last four quarters read improving — profit +175.0% year on year, and 141% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash. What settles it: whether earnings grow into a price that has already moved.
Price story Before the numbers, the tape. A stock price moves through four repeating seasons: a flat base (stage 1), an advance (2), a top (3), a decline (4). Where the price sits in that cycle frames everything below.
Navios Maritime Partners L.P. trades at $79.2, in a confirmed uptrend and 27 weeks into that stage. That is +26.2% against its own 200-day average. It sits at 100% of a 52-week range of $43 to $79. On relative strength it has been ahead of the S&P 500 on a trailing-13-week view for 2 straight weeks.
Today the stock is in a confirmed uptrend — week 27 of stage 2. At $79.2 it trades +26.2% versus its 200-day average and sits at 100% of its 52-week range ($43–$79).
Against the market, two honest reads. Cumulative: over the last 10.1 years the stock moved +300% while the S&P 500 moved +248% — ahead of the index over the full window. Recent form: on a trailing-13-week view the stock has been ahead for 2 straight weeks — the ribbon below is that same metric, week by week.
What would end the trend, mechanically: two Friday closes in a row below the 200-day line. That is the exit rule — no debates.
→ The trend is one thing; the bill is another. Are you paying up for it? Next: the P/E sits at the 97th percentile of its own range.
Valuation P/E is the price of $1 of annual profit: how many dollars the market pays for each dollar the company earns in a year.
Navios Maritime Partners L.P. trades at 6.6× P/E, at the pricey end of its own range (97th percentile). Its long-run median P/E is 3.2×, measured across 4.3 years of weekly readings. This places the multiple against the stock’s own record, and says nothing about what the business is worth.
Today's P/E of 6.6× is at the pricey end of its own range (97th percentile), against a long-run median of 3.2× measured over 4.3 years of weekly readings. This is a comparison against the stock's own history — not a claim about what it is worth.
🚨 Why the multiple sits where it does: over the past year annual EPS moved −19.9% against a +85.1% price move — the price outran earnings, pushing the multiple UP its own range.
The price move, decomposed: over 3y, of the +49.4%/yr price move, ~−14.6%/yr came from earnings growth and ~+64.0 pp from the multiple (expanding). The split is the honest approximate (price return minus earnings growth); it makes the rally itself visible instead of hiding it behind the percentile.
Put together: the multiple is full against its own past, so the story rests on the earnings line underneath it, not the multiple.
→ Cheap or dear rides on the earnings. Are they actually growing? Next: the fundamental stage — where the business sits in its arc, and how growth has compounded.
Stage: Improving Every business sits somewhere on a fundamental arc, and this page names the spot before anything else. The last twelve quarters of revenue, profit and EPS growth — plus the return the business earns on its capital — are read as curves: Deteriorating (the curves are falling), Turning around (a trough has just formed and the last few quarters lift off it), Improving (the climb off the trough is sustained), Consistent (steadily positive with healthy returns), Topping out (still high but decelerating from the peak). When the curves genuinely disagree the read is Mixed; too little history is No read. CAGR (compound annual growth rate) is the smooth yearly pace that turns the starting value into the latest one — the fairest way to compare growth across different time spans. Read the columns together: if the 1-year number towers over the 10-year, recent growth is running hotter than the long-run trend. A dash means that window is not held, or the base year was a loss (where a growth rate is not meaningful).
Navios Maritime Partners L.P. reads as improving on its fundamental arc. Improving — profit growth bottomed 7 quarters ago at −33.3% and has held its recovery at +9.1%, ROCE holding at 8.8%. The read is built from 12 quarters across 4 curves, on full evidence.
Why it matters: a sustained climb off the trough is the setup this page is built to catch — the question moves to what you pay for it.

4-Factor Sector Score
64.2/100 — rank 4 of 23 in Marine Shipping · 86% evidence confidence
Navios Maritime Partners L.P. scores 64.2 out of 100 against the 23 companies it is compared with in Marine Shipping, ranking 4. Balanced evidence: keep at normal research priority and require another comparable period before raising conviction.
The four contributions add to the total exactly: 21.7 + 13.7 + 12.8 + 16 = 64.2. This is the SAME number shown on the sector comparison — it is computed once, for the whole peer set, and read here.
What would change it: The read weakens if profit growth turns negative or margin improvement reverses while sector-relative strength deteriorates.
Revenue Revenue is the top line: everything the company billed its customers in the period.
Navios Maritime Partners L.P. reported $0.4 B of revenue in the Mar 26 quarter, +20.0% year on year. That is the 3rd straight quarter of year-on-year growth. Over 4 years it has compounded at 17.2% a year. The last full year, FY25, came in at $1.3 B. The last four reported quarters add to $1.4 B.

FY25 revenue came in at $1.3 B (+0.8% on the year), capping 4 years at 17.2% compound. The latest quarter (Mar 26) printed $0.4 B, +20.0% year on year — the 3rd consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth.
Pace check: the last four quarters averaged +8.0% growth against the decade's 17.2% — the current year is running slower than its own long-run rate.
Acceleration check: trailing-twelve-month revenue grew +7.6% over the last 4 quarters against +3.4%/yr over the last 8 — accelerating; TTM profit +9.1% vs −5.1%/yr — accelerating.
→ Revenue grew — did margins hold as it scaled? Next: 38.9% this quarter (+12.2 pp YoY).
Operating margin Operating margin is what is left of every $100 of sales after running the business, before interest and tax. It is the cleanest read on pricing power and cost control.
Navios Maritime Partners L.P.'s operating margin is 38.9% in the Mar 26 quarter, +12.2 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 31.3% to 62.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.
Navios Maritime Partners L.P.'s operating margin is 38.9% in the Mar 26 quarter, +12.2 percentage points against the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 31.3% to 62.0%. The current quarter sits inside that band.
The latest quarter's operating margin is 38.9%, +12.2 pp against the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 fiscal years the operating margin has ranged 31.3%–62.0%.
Why the margin moved: operating margin went +12.2 pp year on year while gross margin went +3.9 pp — the gain came mostly below the gross line: operating leverage, with costs spread over a bigger revenue base.
→ Margins held — did that reach the bottom line? Next: profit +175.0% in the latest quarter.
Net profit Net profit is what survives every cost, interest and tax — the number EPS, dividends and book value all grow from.
Navios Maritime Partners L.P. earned $0.1 B of net profit in the Mar 26 quarter, +175.0% year on year. It is the 2nd consecutive quarter of growth. Full-year FY25 profit was $0.3 B. The 4-year compound rate is −13.2%. That is 30.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $0.0 B.

The 4-year compound rate is −13.2%. That is 30.6% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $0.0 B.
Mar 26 profit was $0.1 B, +175.0% year on year — the 2nd consecutive quarter of growth. On the full year, FY25 printed $0.3 B (−21.6%), and the 4-year compound rate is −13.2%.
Why profit moved: revenue contributed +20.0% and the margin +12.2 pp — the quarter was margin-led: most of the profit growth came from keeping more of each sale.
Pace comparison, last four quarters: profit +34.6% vs revenue +8.0%. Profit is growing faster than sales — fixed costs are being spread over a bigger base, and each extra dollar of revenue drops more to the bottom line.
→ Profit rose — but did the cash follow? Next: 141% of the last 3 years' profit arrived as cash.
Cash flow — the router The P&L says what was earned; the cash-flow statement says what actually arrived. Operating cash flow (CFO) against profit is the cleanest lie detector in the accounts.
Over the last 3 fiscal years 141% of Navios Maritime Partners L.P.'s reported profit arrived as operating cash — the cash follows the profit. In FY25 that was $0.5 B of operating cash against $0.3 B of profit. After $0.5 B of capital spending, $−0.0 B was left as free cash.
FY25: operating cash of $0.5 B against reported profit of $0.3 B, leaving free cash of $−0.0 B after $0.5 B of capital spending. Across the last 3 fiscal years the conversion rate is 141% of profit.
Cash-flow readings here are annual — that is the resolution our series carries, so this section moves once a year.
Why: conversion is measured cleanly, but the working-capital day-counts behind it sit below what we hold — the move is shown without inventing its driver.
Router verdict: the visible cash user is investment — the next section checks what the spending is buying.
→ So follow the cash to where it goes. Next: $2.0 B of building over 3 years.
Where the cash goes Working capital is the cash tied up between paying suppliers and getting paid: debtor days (customers owe), inventory days (stock waits), and the cash conversion cycle (the whole loop, in days of sales).
Navios Maritime Partners L.P. does not report the debtor, inventory and payable day-counts a cash cycle is built from, so this section reads the investment side instead. Capital spending ran $2.0 B over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 49.8% of FY25 revenue a year.
Working-capital day-counts are not in our numbers for this stock, so this section reads the investment side — where the cash is being put to work.
On the investment side: capital spending of $2.0 B over the last 3 fiscal years.
The synthesis: the cash is going into capacity, not disappearing into the cycle — the question becomes whether the new capacity earns.
→ Does all this activity actually earn its cost of capital? Next: ROE is 11% and the ROIC − WACC spread is −2.2 pp.
Return on equity Return on equity (ROE) is the profit the business earns on its shareholders’ money. With the full capital-employed split not in our numbers, ROE is the cleanest long ladder we can draw here.
Navios Maritime Partners L.P. earns a ROE of 9% in FY25. Return on invested capital clears the cost of that capital by −2.2 percentage points, so growth here is not yet paying for the capital it uses. The wiring behind it is 21.6% net margin on 0.23× asset turns.
FY25 ROE is 9%.
🚨 Why the return is what it is — the wiring (FY25): 21.6% net margin × 0.23× asset turns × 1.78× balance-sheet leverage ≈ 8.8% on equity. Margin is doing the heavy lifting; leverage is a meaningful part of the equation.
The capstone test — ROIC − WACC: 4.7% − 6.9% = a −2.2 pp spread. The 6.9% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital — read the sign and the size of the spread, not the decimals. Negative — growth at these returns destroys value until the returns recover.
→ Returns like these — is the balance sheet borrowing to make them? Next: debt-to-equity is 0.69.
Dividend A dividend is cash paid out per share. Dividend per share is the declared amount for the period; the trailing twelve-month total is the four most recent quarters added together.
Navios Maritime Partners L.P. paid $0.21 per share over the last four reported quarters, up 20.0% on a year ago. The most recent declaration was $0.06 for Mar 26. Against the current price of $79.2 that is a trailing yield of 0.27%, measured on dividends already paid rather than on a forecast.

Navios Maritime Partners L.P. paid $0.21 per share across the last four reported quarters, most recently $0.06 for Mar 26. That is up 20.0% against the same quarter a year earlier. Against the current price of $79.2 the trailing twelve months work out to 0.27% — trailing dividends measured against today's price, not a forward estimate.
→ A payout is cash leaving the business. Next: what the balance sheet looks like behind it.
Debt Debt-to-equity says how much of the business is funded by borrowings. Low is the safe corner; the trend matters as much as the level.
Navios Maritime Partners L.P. carries total debt of $2.4 B against shareholder equity of $3.4 B as of Mar 26, a debt-to-equity of 0.69. On the annual view that ratio went from 0.91 in FY21 to 0.71 in FY25. Read the returns elsewhere on this page with that leverage in mind.
Mar 26: total debt of $2.4 B against shareholder equity of $3.4 B — a debt-to-equity of 0.69. On the annual view, debt-to-equity went from 0.91 (FY21) to 0.71 (FY25). Read the returns on this page with that leverage in mind.
→ Who owns this, and are they adding or leaving? Next: the register.
Ownership There is no quarter-by-quarter holder register to read here, so we read the crowd through short interest — the slice of tradable shares currently sold short, positioned for a fall.
No ownership or positioning reading is held for Navios Maritime Partners L.P., so this section names the gap rather than filling it. At typical trading volumes those positions would take about 3.9 days to buy back. There is no quarter-by-quarter holder register to read for this filer, so the crowd is read through short interest instead.
We hold no ownership or positioning reading for this stock, so this section says that plainly.
→ One last check: does the safety math agree? Next: the balance-sheet safety line.
Safety line The Z-score estimates how far a company sits from balance-sheet distress — above roughly 3 is safe, below roughly 1.8 is the danger zone. It was built for manufacturers, so it is not applied to banks and lenders.
Navios Maritime Partners L.P.: the Z-score is not available for this stock, so we say so rather than invent one. It is a distance-to-distress estimate from the balance sheet, not a forecast of failure. The debt, cash-flow and return sections above carry the balance-sheet evidence this page does hold, and each of them states its own reporting date.
The safety line in one sentence: the Z-score is not available for this stock, so we say so rather than invent one.

Is Navios Maritime Partners L.P. a stock worth studying right now?
This is not investment advice. The machine read: Navios Maritime Partners L.P.'s price has outrun its earnings. +85.1% in a year against EPS −19.9% — the market is paying now for delivery later. The sharpest open question: whether earnings grow into a price that has already moved. Every number on this page is drawn deterministically from the raw series, with no forecasts and no price opinions — as of 29 July 2026.
