Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (a) Basis of Presentation The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries (See Note 7) and a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. As of December 31, 2017 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. The Company owns 49% of the VIE’s common stock, all of its secured debt and has voting control. All economic interests in the residual net assets reside with the Company. A VIE is an entity that in general does not have equity investors with voting rights or that has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities. A controlling financial interest in a VIE is present when a company has the power to direct the activities of a VIE 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. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-17, During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company adopted ASU 2016-09, (b) Vessels in Operation The cost of the vessels (excluding the estimated initial drydocking cost) less their estimated residual value is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the vessel’s estimated economic life. Management estimates the useful life of each of the Company’s vessels to be 30 years from the date of its original construction. (c) Vessels Under Construction Vessels under construction are stated at cost, which includes the cost of construction, capitalized interest and other direct costs attributable to the construction. No provision for depreciation is made on construction in progress until such time as the relevant assets are completed and put into use. (d) Impairment of Vessels Our vessels are reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the vessel may not be recoverable. When such indicators are present, a vessel is tested for recoverability and we recognize an impairment loss if the sum of the future cash flows (undiscounted and excluding interest charges that will be recognized as an expense when incurred) expected to be generated by the vessel over its estimated remaining useful life are less than its carrying value. If we determine that a vessel’s undiscounted cash flows are less than its carrying value, we record an impairment loss equal to the amount by which its carrying amount exceeds its fair value. The new lower cost basis would result in a lower annual depreciation than before the impairment. Considerations in making such an impairment evaluation include comparison of current carrying values to anticipated future operating cash flows, expectations with respect to future operations and other relevant factors. The estimates and assumptions regarding expected cash flows require considerable judgment and are based upon historical experience, financial forecasts and industry trends and conditions. (e) Drydocking Costs Each vessel is required to be dry-docked dry-dockings dry-docking. dry-docking dry-docking (f) Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers highly liquid investments, such as time deposits and certificates of deposit, with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased, to be cash equivalents. The Company has cash in a U.S. financial institution which is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) for up to $0.3 million. At December 31, 2017 and 2016 and for the years then ended, the Company had balances in this financial institution in excess of the insured amount. The Company also maintains cash balances in foreign financial institutions which are not covered by the FDIC. (g) Short-Term Investments Short-term investments represent funds deposited in money market funds with an original maturity of more than three months when purchased. The Company records its short-term investments at fair value. 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 hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company’s short-term investments are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. (h) Accounts Receivable, net The Company carries its accounts receivable at cost less an allowance for doubtful accounts. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company evaluated its accounts receivable and established an allowance for doubtful accounts, based on a history of past write-offs, collections and current credit conditions. The Company does not generally charge interest on past-due past-due (i) Bunkers and lubricant oils Bunkers and lubricant oils include bunkers (fuel), for those vessels under voyage charter, and lubricants. Under a time charter, the cost of bunkers is borne by and remains the property of the charterer. Bunkers and lubricant oils are accounted for on a first in, first out basis and are valued at cost. (j) Deferred Finance Costs Costs incurred in connection with obtaining secured term loan facilities, revolving credit facilities and bonds are recorded as deferred financing costs and are amortized to interest expense over the estimated duration of the related debt. Such costs include fees paid to the lenders or on the lenders’ behalf and associated legal and other professional fees. Under the Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2015- 03, Interest—Imputation of Interest the Company has adopted the accounting standard (Subtopic 835-30)—simplifying (k) Deferred Income Deferred income is the balance of cash received in excess of revenue earned under a time charter or voyage charter arrangement as of the balance sheet date. (l) Revenue Recognition The Company employs its vessels on time charters, voyage charters or COA’s. With time charters, the Company receives a fixed charter hire per on-hire (m) Other Comprehensive Income / (Loss) The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 220 “Comprehensive Income,” which requires separate presentation of certain transactions, which are recorded directly as components of stockholders’ equity. Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and foreign currency translation gains and losses. (n) Voyage Expenses and Vessel Operating Expenses When the Company employs its vessels on time charter, it is responsible for all the operating expenses of the vessels, such as crew costs, stores, insurance, repairs and maintenance. In the case of voyage charters, the vessel is contracted only for a voyage between two or more ports, and the Company pays for all voyage expenses in addition to the vessel operating expenses. Voyage expenses consist mainly of in port expenses and bunker (fuel) consumption and are recognized as incurred. (o) Repairs and Maintenance All expenditures relating to routine maintenance and repairs are expensed when incurred. (p) Insurance The Company maintains hull and machinery insurance, war risk insurance, protection and indemnity insurance coverage, increased value insurance, demurrage and defense insurance coverage in amounts considered prudent to cover normal risks in the ordinary course of its operations. Premiums paid in advance to insurance companies are recognized as prepaid expenses and recorded as a vessel operating expense over the period covered by the insurance contract. In addition, the Company maintains Directors and Officers insurance. (q) Share-Based Compensation The Company records as an expense in its financial statements the fair value of all equity-settled stock-based compensation awards. The terms and vesting schedules for share-based awards vary by type of grant. Generally, the awards vest subject to time-based (immediate to five years) service conditions. Compensation expense is recognized ratably over the service period. (r) Critical Accounting Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. (s) Foreign Currency Transactions Substantially all of the Company’s cash receipts are in U.S. Dollars. The Company’s disbursements, however, are in the currency invoiced by the supplier. The Company remits funds in the various currencies invoiced. The non U.S. Dollar invoices received, and their subsequent payments, are converted into U.S. Dollars when the transactions occur. The movement in exchange rates between these two dates is transferred to an exchange difference account and is expensed each month. The exchange risk resulting from these transactions is not material. (t) Income Taxes Navigator Holdings Ltd. and its Marshall Islands subsidiaries are currently not required to pay income taxes in the Marshall Islands on ordinary income or capital gains as they qualify as exempt companies. The Company has four subsidiaries incorporated in the United Kingdom where the base tax rate is 19%. One UK subsidiary earns management and other fees from fellow subsidiary companies. The second UK subsidiary holds an investment in our VIE and has a loan to our group subsidiary in Poland. The third subsidiary earns management fees from fellow subsidiary companies. The fourth subsidiary was dormant as at December 31, 2017. The Company has a subsidiary in Poland where the base tax rate is 19%. The Company has a subsidiary incorporated in Singapore where the base tax rate is 17%. The subsidiary earns management and other fees and receives interest from its VIE, PT Navigator Khatulistiwa, The Company considered the income tax disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes,” with regard to disclosing material unrecognized tax benefits; none were identified. The Company’s policy is to recognize accrued interest and penalties for unrecognized tax benefits as a component of tax expense. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, there were no accrued interest and penalties for unrecognized tax benefits. (u) Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per common share (“Basic EPS”) is computed by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share (“Diluted EPS”) are computed by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents then outstanding. Shares granted pursuant to the 2013 Restricted Stock Plan are the only dilutive shares, and these shares have been considered as outstanding since their respective grant dates for purposes of computing diluted earnings per share. (v) Segment Reporting Although separate vessel financial information is available, Management internally evaluates the performance of the enterprise as a whole and not on the basis of separate business units or different types of charters. As a result, the Company has determined that it operates as one reportable segment. Since the Company’s vessels regularly move between countries in international waters over many trade routes, it is impractical to assign revenues or earnings from the transportation of international LPG and petrochemical products by geographic area. (w) Recent Accounting Pronouncements The following accounting standards issued as of December 31, 2017, may affect the future financial reporting by Navigator Holdings Ltd: In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2014-09, The effective date for ASU 2014-09 2015-14 During the last year the Company has taken part in a series of discussions with a collective of global shipping companies, to ensure key industry specifics have been considered, as well as to consider the differing views within the industry in order to give maximum consideration to the implementation of the new standard. The Company has assessed the potential impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its financial statements and footnote disclosures, as well as understanding the implications for the company’s internal processes, systems and controls. The adoption of this standard will have little or no impact on the timing or amounts of revenue recognized for our vessels that operate on time charters. For vessels undertaking voyage charters or contracts of affreightment, we determined that the period over which revenue is recognized will change as a result of adopting this standard. The current policy recognizes revenue beginning from the later of the previous discharge port or the charter party date across the period to the date discharge is completed. Under the new standard, revenue will be recognized beginning from load port across the period to the date discharge is complete, reducing the period of time over which revenue is recognized. The Company has calculated that the effect of this change would result in an increase in the amount of revenue earned and recognized for the year ended December 31, 2017 by a net of $ 0.5 million. The adoption of the new revenue recognition standard will also have an impact on related voyage expenses as certain costs incurred to fulfill a contract or performance obligation can be deferred and amortized over the period of the voyage. The Company has calculated that the effect of this change would result in a reduction in the amount of voyage expenses recognized in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 by a net of $0.2 million. The Company has also considered the impact on reporting under ASC 606 and has adapted its internal processes and controls to reflect the changes. The Company is also considering the impact on Time Charter Equivalent or “TCE”, a non-GAAP In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, on-balance 2016-02 2016-02 not-for-profit 2016-02 In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016–13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, which changes the recognition model for the impairment of financial instruments, including accounts receivable, loans and held-to-maturity In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, • Debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; • Settlement of zero-coupon • Contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; • Proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; • Proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, including bank-owned life insurance policies; • Distributions received from equity method investees; • Beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and • Separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. This ASU is effective for public business entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. For all other entities, the ASU is effective for annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company will adopt this standard beginning January 1, 2018. The impact of adopting this ASU will be immaterial to the financial statements. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, |

Fair Value of Financial Instruments Not Accounted For at Fair Value | 3. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Not Accounted For at Fair Value The principal financial assets of the Company at December 31, 2017 and 2016 consist of cash and cash equivalents, and accounts receivable. The principal financial liabilities of the Company consist of accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities, secured term loan facilities, a revolving credit facility and the 7.75% senior unsecured bond issue. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, 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 fair value hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The 7.75% unsecured bond issue is classified as a level two liability and the fair value has been calculated based on the most recent trades of the bond on the Oslo Børs prior to December 31, 2017. The fair value of secured term loan facilities and revolving credit facility is estimated based on the average of the current rates offered to the Company for all debt facilities. The carrying value approximates the fair market value for the floating rate loans and revolving credit facilities due to their variable interest rate, being LIBOR. This has been categorized at level three on the fair value measurement hierarchy. The following table includes the estimated fair value and carrying value of those assets and liabilities. The table excludes accounts receivable, the insurance debtor recoverable and accounts payable.

Share-Based Compensation | 11. Share-Based Compensation During 2008, the Company’s Board adopted the 2008 Restricted Stock Plan (the “2008 Plan”), which entitled officers, employees, consultants and directors of the Company to receive grants of restricted stock of the Company’s common stock. This 2008 Plan is administered by the Board or a committee of the Board. A holder of restricted stock, awarded under the Plan, shall have the same voting and dividend rights as the Company’s other common stockholders in relation to those shares. Prior to closing of the Company’s initial public offering in November 2013, this 2008 Plan was frozen such that new awards will no longer be issued thereunder. However, any outstanding awards issued prior to the 2008 Plan being frozen shall continue to remain outstanding and extend beyond the date the 2008 Plan was frozen. Any future equity incentive awards will be granted under the new 2013 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”) entered into prior to the closing of the Company’s initial public offering. The 2013 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee with certain decisions subject to approval of our Board. The maximum aggregate number of common shares that may be delivered pursuant to options or restricted stock awards granted under the 2013 Plan is 3,000,000 shares of common stock. A holder of restricted stock, awarded under the 2013 Plan, shall have the same voting and dividend rights as the Company’s other common stockholders in relation to those shares. Share awards On March 23, 2017, the Company granted 28,194 restricted shares under the 2013 Plan to non-employee During the year ended December 31, 2017, 22,782 shares that were previously granted under the 2013 Plan to non-employee On March 29, 2016, the Company granted 22,782 shares under the 2013 Plan non-employee During the year ended December 31, 2016, 118,971 shares that were previously granted under the 2008 Plan at a weighted average grant value of $11.10 vested at a fair value of $1,893,223. Restricted share grant activity for the year ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 was as follows: Number of non- vested restricted shares Weighted average grant date fair value Weighted average remaining contractual term Aggregate intrinsic value Balance as of January 1, 2016 121,471 $ 11.28 0.29 years $ 1,658,079 Granted 72,620 15.80 Vested (118,971 ) 11.10 Balance as of December 31, 2016 75,120 $ 15.93 1.59 years $ 698,616 Granted 93,675 12.77 Vested (25,282 ) 16.17 Balance as of December 31, 2017 143,513 13.82 1.49 years $ 1,413,603 Using the 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 Statement of Income over the period to the vesting date. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company recognized $859,061 in share-based compensation costs relating to share grants (year ended December 31, 2016: $636,324). As of December 31, 2017, there was a total of $1,027,683 unrecognized compensation costs relating to the expected future vesting of share-based awards (December 31, 2016: $690,514) which are expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.49 years (December 31, 2016: 1.59 years). Share options Share options issued under the 2013 Plan are not exercisable until the third anniversary of the grant date and can be exercised up to the tenth anniversary of the date of grant. The fair value of each option is calculated on the date of grant based on the Black-Scholes valuation model using the assumptions listed in the table below. Expected volatilities are based on the historic volatility of the Company’s stock price and other factors. The Company does not currently pay dividends and it is assumed this will not change. 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 existing share options during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2017 were as follows: Options Number of non- options Weighted average exercise price per share Weighted average remaining contractual term years Aggregate intrinsic value Balance as of January 1, 2016 378,440 21.52 8.35 — Forfeited during the year (4,700 ) 20.09 — — Balance as of December 31, 2016 373,740 $ 21.54 7.70 — Forfeited during the period (5,000 ) 23.85 — — Vested (214,055 ) — — — Balance as of December 31, 2017 154,685 21.87 6.70 $ — On April 14, 2017, 194,055 share options granted on April 14, 2014 at an option price of $24.29 became exercisable.

All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. As of December 31, 2017 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. The Company owns 49% of the VIE’s common stock, all of its secured debt and has voting control. All economic interests in the residual net assets reside with the Company. A VIE is an entity that in general does not have equity investors with voting rights or that has equity investors that do not provide sufficient financial resources for the entity to support its activities. A controlling financial interest in a VIE is present when a company has the power to direct the activities of a VIE 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. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-17, During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company adopted ASU 2016-09, |
Impairment of Vessels | (d) Impairment of Vessels Our vessels are reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the vessel may not be recoverable. When such indicators are present, a vessel is tested for recoverability and we recognize an impairment loss if the sum of the future cash flows (undiscounted and excluding interest charges that will be recognized as an expense when incurred) expected to be generated by the vessel over its estimated remaining useful life are less than its carrying value. If we determine that a vessel’s undiscounted cash flows are less than its carrying value, we record an impairment loss equal to the amount by which its carrying amount exceeds its fair value. The new lower cost basis would result in a lower annual depreciation than before the impairment. Considerations in making such an impairment evaluation include comparison of current carrying values to anticipated future operating cash flows, expectations with respect to future operations and other relevant factors. The estimates and assumptions regarding expected cash flows require considerable judgment and are based upon historical experience, financial forecasts and industry trends and conditions. |
Drydocking Costs | (e) Drydocking Costs Each vessel is required to be dry-docked dry-dockings dry-docking. dry-docking dry-docking |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | (f) Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers highly liquid investments, such as time deposits and certificates of deposit, with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased, to be cash equivalents. The Company has cash in a U.S. financial institution which is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) for up to $0.3 million. At December 31, 2017 and 2016 and for the years then ended, the Company had balances in this financial institution in excess of the insured amount. The Company also maintains cash balances in foreign financial institutions which are not covered by the FDIC. |
Short-Term Investments | (g) Short-Term Investments Short-term investments represent funds deposited in money market funds with an original maturity of more than three months when purchased. The Company records its short-term investments at fair value. 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 hierarchy also requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The Company’s short-term investments are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. |
Accounts Receivable, net | (h) Accounts Receivable, net The Company carries its accounts receivable at cost less an allowance for doubtful accounts. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company evaluated its accounts receivable and established an allowance for doubtful accounts, based on a history of past write-offs, collections and current credit conditions. The Company does not generally charge interest on past-due past-due |
Bunkers and lubricant oils | (i) Bunkers and lubricant oils Bunkers and lubricant oils include bunkers (fuel), for those vessels under voyage charter, and lubricants. Under a time charter, the cost of bunkers is borne by and remains the property of the charterer. Bunkers and lubricant oils are accounted for on a first in, first out basis and are valued at cost. |
Deferred Finance Costs | j) Deferred Finance Costs Costs incurred in connection with obtaining secured term loan facilities, revolving credit facilities and bonds are recorded as deferred financing costs and are amortized to interest expense over the estimated duration of the related debt. Such costs include fees paid to the lenders or on the lenders’ behalf and associated legal and other professional fees. Under the Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2015- 03, Interest—Imputation of Interest the Company has adopted the accounting standard (Subtopic 835-30)—simplifying |
Deferred Income | (k) Deferred Income Deferred income is the balance of cash received in excess of revenue earned under a time charter or voyage charter arrangement as of the balance sheet date. |
Revenue Recognition | (l) Revenue Recognition The Company employs its vessels on time charters, voyage charters or COA’s. With time charters, the Company receives a fixed charter hire per on-hire |
Other Comprehensive Income / (Loss) | (m) Other Comprehensive Income / (Loss) The Company follows the provisions of ASC Topic 220 “Comprehensive Income,” which requires separate presentation of certain transactions, which are recorded directly as components of stockholders’ equity. Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and foreign currency translation gains and losses. |
Voyage Expenses and Vessel Operating Expenses | (n) Voyage Expenses and Vessel Operating Expenses When the Company employs its vessels on time charter, it is responsible for all the operating expenses of the vessels, such as crew costs, stores, insurance, repairs and maintenance. In the case of voyage charters, the vessel is contracted only for a voyage between two or more ports, and the Company pays for all voyage expenses in addition to the vessel operating expenses. Voyage expenses consist mainly of in port expenses and bunker (fuel) consumption and are recognized as incurred. |
Repairs and Maintenance | (o) Repairs and Maintenance All expenditures relating to routine maintenance and repairs are expensed when incurred. |
Insurance | (p) Insurance The Company maintains hull and machinery insurance, war risk insurance, protection and indemnity insurance coverage, increased value insurance, demurrage and defense insurance coverage in amounts considered prudent to cover normal risks in the ordinary course of its operations. Premiums paid in advance to insurance companies are recognized as prepaid expenses and recorded as a vessel operating expense over the period covered by the insurance contract. In addition, the Company maintains Directors and Officers insurance. |
Share-Based Compensation | (q) Share-Based Compensation The Company records as an expense in its financial statements the fair value of all equity-settled stock-based compensation awards. The terms and vesting schedules for share-based awards vary by type of grant. Generally, the awards vest subject to time-based (immediate to five years) service conditions. Compensation expense is recognized ratably over the service period. |
Critical Accounting Estimates | (r) Critical Accounting Estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. |
Foreign Currency Transactions | (s) Foreign Currency Transactions Substantially all of the Company’s cash receipts are in U.S. Dollars. The Company’s disbursements, however, are in the currency invoiced by the supplier. The Company remits funds in the various currencies invoiced. The non U.S. Dollar invoices received, and their subsequent payments, are converted into U.S. Dollars when the transactions occur. The movement in exchange rates between these two dates is transferred to an exchange difference account and is expensed each month. The exchange risk resulting from these transactions is not material. |
Income Taxes | (t) Income Taxes Navigator Holdings Ltd. and its Marshall Islands subsidiaries are currently not required to pay income taxes in the Marshall Islands on ordinary income or capital gains as they qualify as exempt companies. The Company has four subsidiaries incorporated in the United Kingdom where the base tax rate is 19%. One UK subsidiary earns management and other fees from fellow subsidiary companies. The second UK subsidiary holds an investment in our VIE and has a loan to our group subsidiary in Poland. The third subsidiary earns management fees from fellow subsidiary companies. The fourth subsidiary was dormant as at December 31, 2017. The Company has a subsidiary in Poland where the base tax rate is 19%. The Company has a subsidiary incorporated in Singapore where the base tax rate is 17%. The subsidiary earns management and other fees and receives interest from its VIE, PT Navigator Khatulistiwa, The Company considered the income tax disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes,” with regard to disclosing material unrecognized tax benefits; none were identified. The Company’s policy is to recognize accrued interest and penalties for unrecognized tax benefits as a component of tax expense. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, there were no accrued interest and penalties for unrecognized tax benefits. |
Earnings Per Share | (u) Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per common share (“Basic EPS”) is computed by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share (“Diluted EPS”) are computed by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents then outstanding. Shares granted pursuant to the 2013 Restricted Stock Plan are the only dilutive shares, and these shares have been considered as outstanding since their respective grant dates for purposes of computing diluted earnings per share. |
Segment Reporting | (v) Segment Reporting Although separate vessel financial information is available, Management internally evaluates the performance of the enterprise as a whole and not on the basis of separate business units or different types of charters. As a result, the Company has determined that it operates as one reportable segment. Since the Company’s vessels regularly move between countries in international waters over many trade routes, it is impractical to assign revenues or earnings from the transportation of international LPG and petrochemical products by geographic area. |
Recent Accounting Pronouncements | (w) Recent Accounting Pronouncements The following accounting standards issued as of December 31, 2017, may affect the future financial reporting by Navigator Holdings Ltd: In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2014-09, The effective date for ASU 2014-09 2015-14 During the last year the Company has taken part in a series of discussions with a collective of global shipping companies, to ensure key industry specifics have been considered, as well as to consider the differing views within the industry in order to give maximum consideration to the implementation of the new standard. The Company has assessed the potential impact that the adoption of this guidance will have on its financial statements and footnote disclosures, as well as understanding the implications for the company’s internal processes, systems and controls. The adoption of this standard will have little or no impact on the timing or amounts of revenue recognized for our vessels that operate on time charters. For vessels undertaking voyage charters or contracts of affreightment, we determined that the period over which revenue is recognized will change as a result of adopting this standard. The current policy recognizes revenue beginning from the later of the previous discharge port or the charter party date across the period to the date discharge is completed. Under the new standard, revenue will be recognized beginning from load port across the period to the date discharge is complete, reducing the period of time over which revenue is recognized. The Company has calculated that the effect of this change would result in an increase in the amount of revenue earned and recognized for the year ended December 31, 2017 by a net of $ 0.5 million. The adoption of the new revenue recognition standard will also have an impact on related voyage expenses as certain costs incurred to fulfill a contract or performance obligation can be deferred and amortized over the period of the voyage. The Company has calculated that the effect of this change would result in a reduction in the amount of voyage expenses recognized in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 by a net of $0.2 million. The Company has also considered the impact on reporting under ASC 606 and has adapted its internal processes and controls to reflect the changes. The Company is also considering the impact on Time Charter Equivalent or “TCE”, a non-GAAP In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, on-balance 2016-02 2016-02 not-for-profit 2016-02 In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016–13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, which changes the recognition model for the impairment of financial instruments, including accounts receivable, loans and held-to-maturity In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, • Debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs; • Settlement of zero-coupon • Contingent consideration payments made after a business combination; • Proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims; • Proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance policies, including bank-owned life insurance policies; • Distributions received from equity method investees; • Beneficial interests in securitization transactions; and • Separately identifiable cash flows and application of the predominance principle. This ASU is effective for public business entities for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. For all other entities, the ASU is effective for annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company will adopt this standard beginning January 1, 2018. The impact of adopting this ASU will be immaterial to the financial statements. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, |

Vessels | (b) Vessels in Operation The cost of the vessels (excluding the estimated initial drydocking cost) less their estimated residual value is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the vessel’s estimated economic life. Management estimates the useful life of each of the Company’s vessels to be 30 years from the date of its original construction. |
Vessels Under Construction [Member] | |
Vessels | (c) Vessels Under Construction Vessels under construction are stated at cost, which includes the cost of construction, capitalized interest and other direct costs attributable to the construction. No provision for depreciation is made on construction in progress until such time as the relevant assets are completed and put into use. |
