Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 Compared with the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2020
Net Cash Provided by (Used in) Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $59.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, a decrease of $1.0 million compared with $60.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Before changes in working capital, cash provided by operating activities was $59.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, a decrease of $8.1 million compared to $67.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to lower time charter revenues revenues received, higher vessel operating expenses and expenditures incurred in relation to drydocking of the Höegh Grace and higher administrative costs incurred.
Changes in working capital increased net cash provided by operating activities by $18 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, compared to a decrease of $7.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, changes in trade receivables and value added and withholding tax liability negatively impacted cash provided by operating activities. This was offset by changes in accrued liabilities and other payables, trade payables, and prepaid expenses and other receivables which all positively impacted cash provided by operating activities for the the nine months ended September 30, 2021. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, changes in trade receivables, value added and withholding tax liability as well as accrued liabilities and other payables contributed to the decrease of $7.0 million.
