further growth in Israel and the structural change such that Veridis holds 20% of all the activities in Israel.
Completion of Gat transaction and financing of the project – acquisition of a power plant with a capacity of 75 megawatts, for a consideration of NIS 872 million
(after initial adjustments of working capital) and closing of a project financing agreement in the amount of NIS 450 million.
Increaser of the electricity tariffs – an average increase of about 12% in the generation component compared with the corresponding quarter last year.
Update of the hourly demand brackets from the beginning of the quarter – negative impact on the results in Israel activities and change in the seasonality of the
revenues – significant increase in the summer period at the expense of the other months of the year, particularly the months of the first quarter.
Commercial operation of the Karish reservoir starting from the end of the first quarter – estimated annual savings of about NIS 60 million.
Signing of agreement with the Bazan Group for supply of solar electricity – scope of 50 megawatts, graduated commencing from January 2025.

Decline in the energy margins
starting from the beginning of the quarter offset by hedging of the energy margins – the decline is against the background of the warm winter and high
inventory levels.
Completion of the Mountain Wind transaction and financing of the project subsequent to the date of the report – acquisition of a portfolio of active wind farms
with a capacity of 81.5 megawatts for a consideration of about NIS 625 million (about $175 million1), and closing of the project financing agreement, in the amount of about NIS 270 million (about $75 million).
Signing of an agreement with a tax partner in Maple Hill – investment of the tax partner in the aggregate amount of about NIS 280 million (about $78 million),
constituting about 40% of the construction cost, in light of the increase of the ITC rate as a result of the IRA Law.
Extension of the of Valley financing agreement – reaching of principle consents that require formal approvals and signing of final
documents for extension of the repayment date of the loan by 3 additional years along with reduction of the debt of about $55 million (CPV’s share – 50%) and update of the weighted‑average interest margin to about 5.75%.

In January 2023, the Government began advancement of a plan for making changes in Israel’s judicial system. Pursuant to the publications in the media, the changes could impact the strength of the Israeli
economy, and in particular they could lead to a reduction of the credit rating of the State of Israel (where as at the publication date of the report, the Moody’s rating company reduced the rating outlook from “positive” to “stable”),
adversely impact investments in the Israeli economy and trigger a removal of money and investments from Israel, increase the costs of the financing sources in Israel, cause of weakening of the exchange rate of the shekel against other
currencies (including the dollar) and harm the activities of the business sector. To the extent the above estimates materialize, wholly or partly, this could negatively impact the financial position and activities of the Company
customers and suppliers and could also impact the availability and cost of the capital and financing sources that are required by the Company, mainly for purposes of supporting its continued business growth.

Supplementary arrangements and granting of a supply license to Rotem – in February 2023, the
Electricity Authority published a proposed decision that includes application of benchmarks and granting of a supplier license to Rotem – for additional details – see Section 3.2E of the Report of the Board of Directors for 2022 (“the
Proposed Decision”). As at the approval date of the report, a final decision had not yet been published and the arrangements included as part of the Proposed Decision had not yet entered into effect, where to the best of the Company’s
knowledge, the Electricity Authority is expected to publish a decision regarding the matter. There is no certainty regarding the final language of the arrangements that will be determined (if ultimately determined) and the scope of their
impact. Based on the publication, the Proposed Decision creates uniformity regarding many aspects of the regulation applicable to Rotem with that of the generation facilities that are authorized to execute bilateral transactions, and thus
they should permit Rotem to operate in the energy market in a manner similar to that of the other generation facilities that are authorized to execute bilateral transactions. In addition, as stated in Section 7.15.5.1 of Part A of the
Periodic Report for 2022, in the Company’s estimation arrangements as stated in the proposed decision are expected to settle certain disputes between Rotem and the System Operator. Accordingly, to the extent an arrangement is not determined
regarding Rotem, as stated, and/or a different arrangement is determined or an arrangement that does not include granting a supply license to Rotem, Rotem will be required to settle the disputes with the System Operator, as stated, and as
at the approval date of the report, the Company is not able to estimate the impact of the said disputes on Rotem’s activities4.

For additional details – see Sections 7.2.4 and 7.10.2 of Part A of the Periodic Report for 2022. That stated in this Section with reference to the impacts of the update to the hourly demand
brackets constitutes “forward‑looking” information as it is defined in the Securities Law, which is based on the Company’s estimates and assumptions as at the date of the report and regarding which there is no certainty it will
materialize. Ultimately, the impact could be different than that stated, this being due to, among other things, the Company’s estimates with respect to the consumption profile not materializing, the manner of its distribution and/or
the actual mix of the customers and/or occurrence of one or more of the risk factors the Company is subject to.

C. |
Analysis of the change in adjusted EBITDA – segment in Israel
|
|
1. |
Energy margin – the decrease in energy margin in the period of the report compared with the corresponding period last year stems mainly from a negative impact on the revenues as a
result of revision of the hourly demand brackets, in the aggregate amount of about NIS 72 million, of which about NIS 61 million will be recovered mainly in the third quarter of 2023 (for additional details – see Section 3.2C above),
net of the increase in the generation tariff, in the amount of about NIS 39 million, and an increase in the natural gas prices as a result of an increase in the generation tariff, and from the weakness of the shekel against the dollar
(an increase of about NIS 14 million). On the other hand, there was an increase in sales of energy, in the amount of about NIS 13 million, due to an increase in customer consumption.
|
|
2. |
Unavailability due to maintenance work – during the corresponding quarter last year, the Rotem and Hadera power plants were shut down for different periods of time for purposes of
maintenance work, which had a negative impact on their results compared with the period of the report. For additional details – see Section 4C(3) to the Report of the Board of Directors for 2022. Later on in 2023 Hadera’s gas turbines
are expected to undergo maintenance, in the cumulative amount of about 45 days1.
|
|
3. |
One‑time events – in the period of the report, Rotem and Hadera recognized a contractual monetary amount it is entitled to from Energean, in the aggregate amount of about NIS 18 million further to amendment of
the agreements from May 2022. The said amount is expected to be received in the beginning of 2024. For additional details – see Note 8A(1) to the Interim Statements.
|
12 |
That stated with reference to the maintenance work and the duration of the period thereof constitutes “forward‑looking” information, as it is defined in the Securities Law, 1968 (“the Securities Law”) which is
based on the Company’s estimates as at the submission date of the report. Actually, the maintenance work could be postponed or could continue even beyond that planned due to, among other things, technical delays, disruptions or breakdowns
in the work process, and/or delay in arrival of the work teams or equipment to the site. The maintenance work and a delay and/or problems with the maintenance work (particularly a continuing delay) could have a significant negative impact
on Hadera’s results.

|
|
D. |
Analysis of the change in adjusted EBITDA – energy transition segment in the U.S.
|
|
1. |
Unavailability – most of the increase stems from unplanned maintenance work at the Valley
power plant in the corresponding period last year. As stated in the Periodic Report for 2022, later on in 2023, the Shore, Fairview and Valley power plants are each expected to perform significant maintenance work (significant maintenance
work generally lasts for about 30 to 40 days).14
|
|
2. |
Energy margin and availability (capacity) payments – as stated in Section 3.3F above, in the
period of the report the gas prices and the electricity prices declined significantly compared with the corresponding period last year, and correspondingly there was a decline, in the amount of about NIS 98 million, in the electricity
margins of the CPV Group (on the assumption of full capacity). In addition, there was a decrease, in the amount of about NIS 9 million, in the availability payments in the period of the report compared with the corresponding period last
year (for details regarding the availability tariffs – see Section 3.3(F) above).
|
|
3. |
Energy hedges15 – the said decrease in the electricity margins in some of the power plants was partly offset by hedging made during 2022 the realization of which led to an increase in the results of the CPV Group in the
period of the report, in the amount of about NIS 128 million, compared with the corresponding period last year. For details regarding energy hedges for the balance of 2023 – see Section E below.
|
13 |
For the definition of adjusted EBITDA – see Section 4B above to the Report of the Board of Directors for 2022.
|
14 |
That stated with reference to maintenance work, the duration thereof and the expected projects constitutes “forward‑looking” information, as it is defined in the Securities Law, 1968 (“the
Securities Law”). It is noted that additional maintenance work may be required in the power plants of the CPV Group, including unplanned maintenance work, due to a change in the timetables or breakdowns. Partial activities or a shutdown of
the power plants for extended periods would have a negative impact on the results of the CPV Group.

The net generation is the gross generation during the period less the electricity used for the power plant’s internal purposes. The actual generation percentage is the quantity of the electricity generated in the facilities compared with
the maximum quantity that can be generated in the period and it is impacted by unplanned power outages or current maintenance in the power plants that are scheduled for fixed time periods. The revenues of the power plants from energy stem
from net generation of electricity.

That stated in connection with projects that have not yet reached operation including with reference to the
expected operation date, the technologies and/or characteristics and the anticipated cost of the investment, is “forward‑looking” information, as it is defined in the Securities Law, which is based on the Company’s estimates and assumptions
as at the approval date of the report and regarding which there is no certainty it will be realized (in whole or in part). Completion of the said projects (or any one of them) may not occur or may occur in a manner different than that
stated above, among other things due to dependency on various factors, including those that are not under the Company’s control, including assurance of connection to the network and output of electricity from the project sites and/or
connection to the infrastructures (including gas infrastructures), receipt of permits, completion of planning processes and licensing, completion of construction work, final costs in respect of development, construction and land, the proper
functioning of the equipment and/or the terms of undertakings with main suppliers (as applicable) and there is no certainty they will be fulfilled, the manner of their fulfillment, the extent of their impact or what their final terms will
be. Ultimately technical, operational or other delays and/or breakdowns and/or an increase in expenses could be caused, this being as a result of, among other things, factors as stated above or as a result of occurrence of one or more of
the risk factors the Company is exposed to, including construction risks (including force majeure events), regulatory risks, macro‑economic changes, delays and increased costs due relating to the supply chain, transport and changes in raw‑material prices and etc. For additional details
regarding risk factors – see Section 19 of Part A of the Periodic Report for 2022. It is further clarified that delays in completion of the above‑mentioned projects beyond the date originally planned for this could impact the ability of the
Company and the Group companies to comply with their obligations to third parties (including, authorities, conditions of permits, lenders, yard consumers and others) in connection with the projects.

Most of the decrease stems from a decrease in accrued income in Israel, in the amount of about NIS 85 million, mainly as a result of the timing differences and the impact of the seasonal
factor with respect the sales, which became larger in the period of the report against the background of a change in the hourly demand brackets (for details – see Section 3.2C) above.

collaterals in connection with transactions hedging electricity margins in Valley, offset by an increase, in the amount of about NIS 30 million, in the balance of VAT institutions, and an increase, in the amount of about NIS 18 million, in
respect of compensation from Energean (for additional details – see Note 8A(1) to the Interim Statements).

Most of the increase stems from update of the current maturities of the project credit in Israel and the U.S. based on the
repayment schedules, in the amounts of about NIS 40 million and about NIS 12 million, respectively.
On the other hand, there was a decrease stemming from repayment of project credit in Israel and the U.S. based on the

Non-Current Liabilities
|

Long-term loans from banks and financial institutions
|
2,243
|
1,724
|
Most of the increase stems from a long-term loan, in the amount of about NIS 450 million, for financing acquisition of the Gat
power plant (for additional details – see Notes 6 A(1) and 7A(1) to the Interim Statements) and withdrawals, in the amount of about NIS 100 million, in the framework of the Zomet Financing Agreement.
The increase was partly offset by a decrease, in the amounts of about NIS 40 million and about NIS 12 million, as a result of
update of the current maturities of the project credit in Israel and in the U.S., respectively.
|
||||
Long-term loans from holders of non-controlling interests and others
|
382
|
424
|
Most of the decrease stems from a decrease, in the amount of about NIS 88 million, in loans from the holders of non‑controlling interests in Rotem, this being as a result of repayment and update of the current
maturities of the loans. This decrease was partly offset by an increase deriving from an increase in the balance of the long‑term loans from the holders of non‑controlling interests in the CPV Group, where an increase of about NIS 37
million is in respect of additional loans provided to the Group and accrual of interest to the principal in the period of the report, and an increase of about NIS 11 million due to an increase of the shekel/dollar exchange rate.
|
||||
Debentures

During the period of the report, the Group acquired the Gat power plant, for a consideration of about NIS 268 million (for additional details – see Note 6A(1) of the Interim Statements). On
the other hand, cash was provided to the Group, in the amounts of about NIS 125 million and about NIS 73 million, in respect of release of short‑term deposits and in respect of release of collaterals relating to hedging electricity margins in
the CPV Group, respectively. In addition, there was a decrease, in the amount of about NIS 79 million, in investments in property, plant and equipment in Israel.
|
|
Cash flows provided by financing activities
|
779
|
123
|
Most of the increase in the cash flows provided by financing activities stems from a receipt in the period of the report, in the amount of about NIS 452 million, in respect of a swap of
shares of transaction and investment with Veridis (for additional details – see Note 6A(2) of the Interim Statements), a loan, in the amount of about NIS 450 million, for purposes of financing a transaction for acquisition of the Gat power
plant (for additional details – see Note 7A(1) of the Interim Statements), and an increase, in the amount of about NIS 148 million, in investments and loans from holders of non‑controlling interests in the CPV Group. On the other hand, in the
period of the report the Group repaid a loan to the prior holders of the rights in the Gat power plant, in the amount of about NIS 303 million (for additional details – see Note 6A(1) of the Interim Statements), and in addition there was a
decrease, in the amount of about NIS 56 million, in respect of withdrawals from Zomet’s financing agreement framework.

Companies in the CPV Group are subject to financial covenants by force of the various financial agreements. As at the date of the financial statements, the companies are in compliance with all the financial covenants determined. As part of
the financial agreements, an historical debt‑service coverage ratio financial covenant of 1:1 during the last four quarters was determined for Shore and Maryland. As at the date of the financial statements, Maryland and Shore are in
compliance with the benchmark (4.06 and 1.13, respectively).

Based on Valley’s financing agreement, the contractual repayment date of the liabilities, the balance of which as at the date of the report is about NIS 1.5 billion (about $415 million –
the share of the CPV Group – 50%) falls on June 30, 2023. In the period of the report and thereafter, Valley reached principle consents for extension of the financing agreement, the main terms of which are: (A) extension of the repayment
date of the loan up to May 31, 2026; (B) update of the weighted‑average interest margin on the loan to about 5.75%; and (C) reduction of the scope of the debt by about NIS 200 million (about $55 million), mainly by means of investment by
the shareholders (the Company’s share in the investment is about NIS 60 million (about $17 million)). As at the approval date of the report, extension of the financing agreement is contingent on receipt of formal approvals and signing of
final documents, which in the estimation of the management of the CPV Group is expected to take place in the second quarter of 2023. It is noted that in a case where the extension documents are not signed on the said date, it is not
expected that Valley will be able to repay the loan on June 30, 2023 based on its cash flows from current operating activities. As at the approval date of the report, the said circumstances have no impact on the financial results and
activities of the Group and of Valley37.

Proposed Clean Power Plan – in May 2023, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced a proposal Clean Power Plan 2.0, the goal of which is to significantly limit emission of greenhouse gases from generation of energy through
fossils. Pursuant to the proposal, the regulation will require large electricity generation facilities operating using natural gas with an output coefficient of more than 50% to integrate burning of hydrogen or, alternatively, carbon capture
technology – this being commencing from 2032 or 2035, respectively. As at the approval date of the report, the said proposal, is not final and will be subject to comments of the public and a thorough examination process. In CPV’s estimation,
the proposed plan could undergo significant changes before its potential application in 2024.

the method for allocation thereof to the cash‑generating units pursuant to the provisions of IFRS 3.
|
Date of the valuation
|
March 30, 2023.
|
Value of the identified assets and liabilities and the amount of the goodwill as at the valuation date
|
About NIS 555 million.
|
Identity of the appraiser and his characteristics
|
The valuation was performed by a team headed by Mr. Sagiv Mizrahi, CPA, a partner and team manager in the Corporate Finance Department of the Office of BDO (Ziv Haft). Sagiv has a
Bachelor’s degree in applied mathematics from Bar Ilan University and a Master’s degree in business administration (MBA), with honors, and a specialization in financial management from Tel‑Aviv University. Sagiv has more than 10 years of
experience in the areas of business and economic consulting, valuations of companies and financial instruments and economic–accounting work of various types in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and generally
accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (U.S GAAP). In the past, Sagiv was a lecturer at Bar Ilan University in accounting and valuations.
|
Valuation model
|
The fair value of the power plant was estimated using the revenues’ method, the multi‑period excess earnings method (MPEEM). The fundamental assumption of this method is that the value of
the asset being estimated equals the present value of the free cash flows allocable to the asset less the fair rate of return of the required assets (the cash flow assets) for purposes of realization of these cash flows.
|
The assumptions based on which the appraiser performed the valuation
|
– The nominal shekel weighted‑average cost of capital (WACC) rates ranges between 8% and 8.75%.
– Forecast years – represents the period between March 31, 2023 and up to December 31, 2059, and is based on an estimate of the economic
useful life of the power plant.

|
The fair value was estimated using the DCF method by means of discounting the project’s future pre‑tax cash flows, at an after‑tax weighted‑average
cost of capital (WACC).
|

|
– The nominal shekel weighted‑average cost of capital (WACC) rates ranges between 5.75% and 6.25%.
– Market prices – the market prices (electricity, availability of RECs, etc.) are based PPA agreements and market forecasts received from
external, independent information sources, taking into account the region and the relevant market for each project and the relevant regulation.
– Forecast years – between 20 and 39 years, and is based on an estimate of the economic useful life of the project’s power (wind) plant.

The Group opted to implement the expedient as per IFRS 3 and allocate the fair value of the facilities and the electricity supply license to a single asset. The fair value was determined
by an independent appraiser using the income approach, the MultiPeriod Excess Earning Method (MPEEM). The valuation methodology included several key assumptions that constituted the basis for cash flow forecasts, including, among other
things, electricity and gas prices, and nominal post-tax discount rate of 8%-8.75%. The said assets are amortized over 27 years from the acquisition date, considering an expected residual value at the end of the assets’ useful life.
|
|
(2) |
The fair value of the land was determined by an external and independent land appraiser using the discounted cash flow technique (the discount rate used is 8%).
|
|
(3) |
As stated above, the loans were repaid immediately after the acquisition date.
|
|
(4) |
The goodwill arising as part of the business combination reflects the synergy between the activity of the Gat Power Plant and the Rotem Power Plant.
|
|
(5) |
The consideration includes a cash payment of NIS 270 million plus deferred consideration, whose present value is estimated at NIS 285 million.

A. |
Maintenance costs under the Long Term Maintenance Plan (hereinafter - the “LTCP Agreement”): under IFRS, variable payments which were paid in accordance with the milestones as set in the LTCP Agreement are capitalized to the cost of
property, plant and equipment and amortized over the period from the date on which maintenance work was carried out until the date on which maintenance work is due to take place again. Under US GAAP, the said payments are recognized on
payment date within current expenses in the statement of income.
|
|
B. |
Hedge effectiveness of interest rate swaps: in accordance with the IFRS - the associates recognize adjustments relating to the ineffective portion of their cash flow hedge under finance expenses in profit and loss. Under US GAAP, there
is no part which is not effective, and the hedging results are recognized in full in other comprehensive income.
|
|
C. |
Impairment of property, plant and equipment in Valley: In 2021, prior to the acquisition date of CPV Group, indications of impairment of the property, plant and equipment were identified. Under IFRS, the carrying amount exceeded the
recoverable amount (the discounted cash flows that Valley expects to generate from the asset), and consequently an impairment loss was recognized. Under US GAAP, the non-discounted cash flows that Valley expects to generate from the asset
exceeded the carrying amount, and therefore no impairment loss was recognized. Since the impairment loss was taken into account as part of the excess cost allocation work as of the acquisition date of CPV Group, its subsequent reversal in
Valley’s financial statements, if recognized, shall not affect the Company's results.
|
|
D. |
Intangible assets: Under IFRS, certain intangible assets are defined as property, plant and equipment.
|
|
E. |
Restricted cash: The presentation of restricted cash in the cash flow statements varies between IFRS and US GAAP.
