Basis of Presentation and General Information [Abstract]  
Basis of Presentation and General Information:
1.       Basis of Presentation and General Information:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016, include the accounts of Star Bulk Carriers Corp. (“Star Bulk”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries as set forth below (collectively, the “Company”).
Star Bulk was incorporated on December 13, 2006 under the laws of the Marshall Islands and maintains executive offices in Athens, Greece.  The Company is engaged in the ocean transportation of dry bulk cargoes worldwide through the ownership and operation of dry bulk carrier vessels.  Since December 3, 2007, Star Bulk shares trade on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the ticker symbol SBLK.
Effective June 20, 2016, the Company effected a 5-for-1 reverse split of its issued and outstanding common shares (the “June 2016 Reverse Split”) (Note 9).  All share and per share amounts disclosed in the accompanying financial statements give effect to this reverse stock split retroactively, for all periods presented.
The July 2014 Transactions
On July 11, 2014, the Company, as part of its growth strategy, completed a transaction that resulted in the acquisition of Oceanbulk Shipping LLC (“Oceanbulk Shipping”) and Oceanbulk Carriers LLC (“Oceanbulk Carriers”, and together with Oceanbulk Shipping, “Oceanbulk”) from Oaktree Dry Bulk Holdings LLC (including affiliated funds, “Oaktree”) and Millennia Holdings LLC (“Millennia Holdings”, and together with Oaktree, the “Oceanbulk Sellers” or “Sellers”) through the merger of the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries, Star Synergy LLC and Star Omas LLC, into Oceanbulk's holding companies (the “Merger”).  At the time of the Merger, Oceanbulk owned and operated a fleet of 12 dry bulk carrier vessels and owned contracts for the construction of 25 newbuilding fuel-efficient Eco-type dry bulk vessels at shipyards in Japan and China.  Millennia Holdings is an entity that is affiliated with the family of Mr. Petros Pappas, who became the Company's Chief Executive Officer in connection with the Merger.
The agreement governing the Merger, the “Merger Agreement”, also provided for the acquisition (the “Heron Transaction”) by the Company of two Kamsarmax vessels (the “Heron Vessels”), from Heron Ventures Ltd. (“Heron”), a limited liability company incorporated in Malta, which was a joint venture between Oceanbulk Shipping and a third party.  Oceanbulk Shipping at the time of the Merger had an outstanding loan receivable of $23,680 from Heron that was convertible into 50% of the equity interests of Heron (the “Heron Convertible Loan”).  The Heron Convertible Loan was converted into 50% of the equity of Heron on November 5, 2014.  The Company issued 423,141 of its common shares (adjusted for the June 2016 Reverse Split) into escrow as part of the consideration for the acquisition of the Heron Vessels.  The common shares were released from escrow to the Sellers on January 30, 2015, following the transfer of the Heron Vessels to the Company on December 5, 2014.  In addition to the issued shares, upon the delivery of the Heron vessels the Company paid $25,000 in cash, which was financed by the Heron Vessels Facility (described in Note 8t), which the Company had entered in November 2014.
In addition, concurrently with the Merger, the Company completed a transaction (the “Pappas Transaction”), in which it acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Dioriga Shipping Co. and Positive Shipping Company (collectively, the “Pappas Companies”), which were entities owned and controlled by affiliates of the family of Mr. Pappas.  At the time of the Merger, the Pappas Companies owned and operated a dry bulk carrier vessel (Tsu Ebisu) and had a contract for the construction of a newbuilding dry bulk carrier vessel (Indomitable - ex-HN 5016), which was delivered in January 2015.  The Merger, the Heron Transaction and the Pappas Transaction are referred to, together, as the “July 2014 Transactions.”
A total of 10,820,840 of the Company's common shares (adjusted for the June 2016 Reverse Split) were issued to the various selling parties in the July 2014 Transactions, consisting of 9,679,153 common shares consideration for the Merger with Oceanbulk, 718,546 common shares consideration for the acquisition of Pappas Companies and 423,141 common shares as partial consideration for the acquisition of the Heron Vessels.
The Merger and the Pappas Transaction have been reflected in the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014, as purchases of businesses pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, “Business Combinations”, and the results of operations of Oceanbulk and the Pappas Companies have been included in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations since July 11, 2014, the date the Merger and the Pappas Transaction were completed.  The following table summarizes the estimated fair values of the significant assets acquired and liabilities assumed by the Company on the date of the acquisition with respect to the Merger and the Pappas Transaction:

The purchase price allocation was prepared by the Company, assisted by a third party expert, based on management estimates and assumptions, making use of available market data and taking into consideration third party valuations.  Major adjustments to record the acquired assets and assumed liabilities at fair value include:
a)      a $158,523 fair value adjustment recognized for vessels under construction, as supported by vessel valuations of independent shipbrokers on a fully delivered and charter free basis, through Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy based on observable inputs, prevailing in the sale and purchase market of similar vessels on June 23, 2014, which, according to the third party appraiser and management estimates and based on the then current market trends were not materially different from the values on July 11, 2014;
b)      a $79,465 fair value adjustment recognized for vessels in operation, as supported by vessel valuations of independent shipbrokers on a charter free basis, through Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy based on observable inputs, prevailing in the sale and purchase market of similar vessels on June 23, 2014, which, according to the third party appraiser and management estimates and based on the then current market trends were not materially different from the values on July 11, 2014;
c)      a write-off of the Heron Convertible Loan of $23,680, as further discussed below, on the basis that no economic benefit was expected to be provided to the Company from Heron's liquidation process (other than the distribution of the Heron Vessels in exchange for separate consideration of 423,141 common shares and $25,000 in cash) with any distributable cash from the liquidation of Heron to be transferred to the former owners of Oceanbulk Shipping as further discussed in Note 16.2;
d)      a write-off of $3,003 deferred finance costs with respect to financing arrangements that, according to the third party appraiser and management estimates, were not expected to provide any ongoing benefit to the business;
e)      a $1,967 intangible asset recognized with respect to a fair value adjustment for two favorable charters under which Oceanbulk is the lessor, through Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy based on observable inputs, by comparing the discounted cash flows under the existing charters with those that could be obtained in the then current market by vessels of similar size and age for the remaining charter period.  The respective intangible asset was amortized on a straight-line basis over the remaining period of the time charters (which terminated during the first and second quarter of 2016) (Note 7).
The fair value of the share consideration issued in connection with the July 2014 Transactions was based on the market price of $59.27 per share of the Company's common shares (adjusted for the June 2016 Reverse Split).
The resulting gain from bargain purchase from the acquisition of Oceanbulk and the Pappas Companies of $12,318 is separately presented in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014.  The gain from bargain purchase is primarily attributable to the estimates of the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed and the subsequent stability or slightly declining market value of dry bulk carrier vessels since the signing of the agreements relating to the July 2014 Transactions, combined with the simultaneous decline in stock prices for most U.S. listed shipping companies, including Star Bulk, which had at the time of the Merger decreased by a greater amount than their net asset values.

The following unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information reflects the results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014, as if the Merger and the Pappas Transaction had been consummated on January 1, 2013 and after giving effect to purchase accounting adjustments, including the nonrecurring pro forma reversal of: (i) the gain from bargain purchase of $12,318 in 2014; (ii) all acquisition-related transaction costs of $12,757 in 2014; and (iii) the interest expense of $1,412 in 2013 and $1,816 in 2014, with respect to the convertible loan owed by Oceanbulk to its members, which was converted into equity because of the Merger, as if the conversion had taken place on January 1, 2013.  These unaudited pro forma results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of what operating results would have been, had the Merger and the Pappas Transaction actually taken place on January 1, 2013. In addition, these results are not intended to be a projection of future results and do not reflect any synergies that might be achieved from the combined operations:

The Heron Transaction has been reflected in the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014, as a purchase of assets with the acquisition cost of the two Heron Vessels delivered on December 5, 2014, consisting of the value of the 423,141 common shares issued on July 11, 2014, of $25,080, and $25,000 in cash, financed by the Heron Vessels Facility (Note 8) being recorded within “Vessels and other fixed assets, net” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, net of accumulated depreciation.  As discussed above, as part of the purchase price allocation as of July 11, 2014, the Company assigned zero value to the Heron Convertible Loan, as no economic benefit is expected to be provided to the Company from Heron's liquidation process, since any distributable cash from the liquidation of Heron will be transferred to the former owners of Oceanbulk Shipping and not to the Company as further discussed in Note 16.2.
On September 5, 2014, Oceanbulk Shipping, which became, following the Merger a wholly owned subsidiary of Star Bulk, entered into a term sheet with ABY Group Holdings Limited (“ABY Group”) and Heron.  The term sheet provided for the conversion of the Heron Convertible Loan.  Among other things, the term sheet contained customary governance provisions and provisions relating to the liquidation of Heron following the conversion of the Heron Convertible Loan.  Under the term sheet, Oceanbulk Shipping received as a distribution the vessels Star Gwyneth (ex-ABYO Gwyneth) and Star Angelina (ex-ABYO Angelina) (two Kamsarmax vessels of 82,790 dwt and 82,981 dwt, respectively), and ABY Group received, as a distribution, the ABYO Audrey (a Capesize vessel of 175,125 dwt) and the ABYO Oprah (a Kamsarmax vessel of 82,551 dwt).  On November 5, 2014, the conversion of the Heron Convertible Loan into 50% of the equity interests of Heron was completed.  However, such conversion did not affect the Company's financial statements since, as further discussed above and in Note 16.2, pursuant to the provisions of the Merger Agreement, the former owners of Oceanbulk effectively remain the ultimate beneficial owners of Heron until Heron is dissolved and any distributable cash from the liquidation of Heron will be transferred to the former owners of Oceanbulk Shipping and not to the Company.
The Company incurred transaction costs and a stock based compensation expense relating to the July 2014 Transactions of $9,364 and $1,808, respectively, which are included in “General and administrative expenses” in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014.
The Excel Transactions
On August 19, 2014, the Company entered into definitive agreements with Excel Maritime Carriers Ltd. (“Excel”) pursuant to which (the “Excel Transactions”) the Company acquired 34 operating dry bulk vessels, consisting of six Capesize vessels, 14 sistership Kamsarmax vessels, 12 Panamax vessels and two Handymax vessels (the “Excel Vessels”) for an aggregate consideration of 5,983,462 of its common shares (adjusted for the June 2016 Reverse Split) (the “Excel Vessel Share Consideration”) and $288,391 in cash (Note 3).  The Excel Vessels were transferred to the Company in a series of closings, on a vessel-by-vessel basis, in general upon reaching port after their voyages and cargoes were discharged.  The last Excel Vessel was delivered to the Company in April 2015.
In the case of three Excel Vessels (Star Martha (ex - Christine), Star Pauline (ex - Sandra) and Star Despoina (ex -Lowlands Beilun)), which were transferred subject to existing charters, the Company acquired the outstanding equity interests of the vessel-owning subsidiaries that own those Excel Vessels (although all other assets and liabilities of such vessel-owning subsidiaries remained with Excel).  The delivery of each Excel Vessel has been reflected in the Company's financial statements as a purchase of assets.
At the transfer of each Excel Vessel, the Company paid the cash and share consideration for such Excel Vessel to Excel.  The Company used cash on hand, together with borrowings under (i) a $231,000 secured bridge loan facility (the “Excel Vessel Bridge Facility”) provided to the Company by Excel's majority equity holders, which are entities affiliated with Oaktree and entities affiliated with Angelo, Gordon & Co.  (“Angelo, Gordon”), or (ii) other bank borrowings, to fund part of the cash consideration for the acquisition of the Excel Vessels (Notes 3 and 8).  Excel used the cash consideration to cause an amount of outstanding indebtedness under its senior secured credit agreement to be repaid, such that all liens and obligations with respect to each transferred Excel Vessel were released upon its transfer to the Company.
Below is the list of the Company's wholly owned subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016:
