The amounts due from Sonatide is denominated in U.S. dollars; however, the underlying third-party customer payments to Sonatide were satisfied, in part, in Angolan kwanzas. We and Sonangol, our partner in Sonatide, have had discussions regarding how the net losses from the devaluation of certain Angolan kwanza denominated accounts should be shared. After offsetting the amounts due to Sonatide, the net amount due from Sonatide at June 30, 2019 was approximately $67.0 million. Sonatide had approximately $51.0 million of cash on hand (approximately $15.0 million denominated in Angolan kwanzas) at June 30, 2019 plus approximately $19.0 million of net trade accounts receivable to satisfy the net due from Sonatide. Given prior discussions with our partner regarding how the net losses from the devaluation of certain Angolan kwanza denominated accounts should be shared, we continue to evaluate our net amount due from Sonatide balance for potential impairment based on available liquidity held by Sonatide. Amounts due to Sonatide Amounts due to Sonatide represent commissions payable and other costs paid by Sonatide on behalf of us.
