I would personally want her to buy back units, but I really don’t think that’s likely. If you recall in one of Nicks articles there is a very big incentive structure for distributions over a certain dollar amount where AF can get something like 90% of all distributions over X dollars a share. I can’t remember the exact numbers. This is basically the only thing that aligns AF’s interests with ours, but to achieve the hurdles would be very unlikely. She owns a huge stake in NM and as far as I can tell has not sold any units. She would not just cherry pick the best assets from NM and let it fail because that equity stake would be $0. If she can refinance the springing maturity debt she’ll be able to keep NM alive possibly (there are also the 2022 notes). If she can keep NM alive, there is a good chance that the equity will eventually appreciate (or at least not be worthless) and AF will be a lot richer. I think this is the more likely scenario. I also think this is the scenario that the market is pricing in. With NM’s market cap of about $150 million, the market certainly is pricing in heavy optimism for the company which I think is a bad thing for NMM.
