NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. General

This report contains the semi-annual condensed consolidated financial statements of OCI N.V. ('OCI', 'the Group' or 'the Company'), a public limited liability company incorporated under Dutch law, with its head office located at Honthorststraat 19, Amsterdam, the Netherlands. OCI N.V. is registered in the Dutch commercial register under No. 56821166 dated 2 January 2013. The Group is primarily involved in the production of nitrogen-based fertilizers and industrial chemicals.

The semi-annual condensed consolidated financial statements for the six month period ended 30 June 2017 have been authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on 31 August 2017.

The semi-annual condensed consolidated financial statements for the six month period ended 30 June 2017 have not been audited or reviewed by an external auditor.

2. Basis of preparation

The semi-annual condensed consolidated financial statements for the six month period ended 30 June 2017 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting' and do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements. Selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group's financial position and performance since the last annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2016. The semi-annual condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016 which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS, as adopted by the European Union.

3. Summary of significant accounting policies

The accounting policies applied over the six month period ended 30 June 2017 are consistent with those applied in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016. The Group has not early adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective.

During the six month period ended 30 June 2017, no new standards became applicable to OCI that significantly impacted these semi-annual condensed consolidated financial statements.

OCI N.V. is in the process of assessing the effects of the new standards published by the IASB. OCI N.V. will apply IFRS 9 'Financial instruments' and IFRS 15 'Revenue from contracts with customers' as of 1 January 2018, when these standards become effective. The assessments performed to date indicate that the implementation of these new standards will have a limited impact on the group's financial results. IFRS 16 'Leases' will become effective on 1 January 2019, but has not yet been endorsed by the European Union. There has been no further update on the impact assessment of this new standard.

4. Seasonality of operations

Our product portfolio is diversified primarily by industry and geography. The nitrogen fertilizer industry is inherently dependent on fundamental supply and demand drivers, including global population growth, crop yields, feedstock costs, and seasonality of crop planting and harvesting seasons. These and other long-term and short-term drivers result in cyclical nitrogen fertilizer pricing trends. Supply and demand dynamics in the industrial chemicals industries in which we operate, including industrial ammonia, methanol, and melamine, are more evenly distributed throughout the year, thereby contributing to stability in sales. The global sales and diversified product mix - both as fertilizers and chemical products - mitigate the impact of any one product or region's seasonal fluctuations.

5. Critical accounting judgements, estimated and assumptions

The preparation of the financial statements in compliance with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The estimates and assumptions are based on experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances and are used to judge the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised or in the revision period and future periods, if the changed estimates affect both current and future periods.

Compared to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016 there were no significant changes to the critical accounting judgements, estimates and assumptions that could result in significantly different amounts than those recognized in the financial statements. With respect to financial instruments, there has not been any reclassification between categories of financial instruments compared to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016.

As at 30 June 2017, the group has land with a carrying amount of USD 35.3 million (2016: USD 35.3 million).

The amount of USD 55.7 million under effect of movement in exchange rates in 2017 mainly relates to Sorfert and OCI Nitrogen, which have different functional currencies (Algerian dinar and Euro respectively), than the Group's presentation currency.

Additions to assets under construction are mainly related to the construction of the IFCo plant.

The difference between the additions in the above schedule and the investments in property, plant and equipment mentioned in the consolidated statement of cash flows is mainly caused by capital expenditure creditors not yet paid and capitalized borrowing costs. Included in additions for the period are USD 45.0 million capitalized borrowing costs related to IFCo.

Movements in equity attributable to owners of the Company during the six month period ended 30 June 2017:

Dividend to non-controlling interest

Total dividends declared to non-controlling interest amounted to USD 34.6 million (2016: USD 130.6 million). Of this amount USD 4.0 million has been paid as at 30 June 2017 and relates to OCI Partners. Sorfert declared USD 30.6 million dividends to non-controlling interest and the amount is recognized in trade and other payables as at 30 June 2017.

Treasury shares sold

Sales of treasury shares during the period ended 30 June 2017 resulted in an increase in reserves of USD 1.7 million (2016: nil).

Share-based payments

An amount of USD 1.8 million related to equity-settled share-based compensation (2016: USD 0.5 million).

Impact difference in profit sharing non-controlling interest

In the partnership agreement for Sorfert between OCI and the other investor, a profit sharing agreement was entered into, in which it was agreed that as a compensation for lower gas prices, the other investor will receive a relatively higher part of dividends. As a result of this agreement the non-controlling interest increased by USD 4.1 million during the first 6 months of 2017 (2016: USD 14.1 million).

New and amended financing arrangements

EBIC

In March 2017, EBIC refinanced the outstanding term loan in the amount of USD 49.6 million with a 4-year amortizing loan, with semi-annual installments of USD 6.3 million and a final maturity date in December 2020. The modified term loan carries an interest rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 4%. Debt modification costs were incurred of USD 0.3 million.

IFCo

In May 2017, IFCo entered into a working capital facility of USD 50.0 million, of which USD 45.0 million was drawn per 30 June 2017. The short-term facility matures in May 2018 and carries an interest rate of US Prime rate minus a margin between 1.75% - 3.15%.

Covenants

As per 30 June 2017 all financial covenants were met, except for the financial covenants of the credit facility of OCI N.V. The official covenant waiver was obtained in August 2017, after period end, and therefore the facility balance of USD 676.6 million was reclassified to current liabilities as per 30 June 2017. However as a waiver has been obtained for 30 June 2017 and 31 December 2017, the facility balance is expected to be presented as a non-current liability in future periods.

The settlement of claims relates to a liability due to Lafarge Egypt. In December 2007, OCI S.A.E. sold OBMH S.A.E., the holding company of OCI S.A.E.'s cement assets, to Lafarge S.A. (now LafargeHolcim Ltd) for USD 15.0 billion. OCI S.A.E. indemnified Lafarge for certain potential liabilities related to the sold assets, which in 2017 resulted in a liability due to Lafarge. OCI N.V.'s share of this liability is USD 11.0 million.

The increase in foreign exchange gains and losses from 2016 to 2017 mainly related to the revaluation of intercompany balances in foreign currencies, for which the statement of profit or loss impact is not eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.

23. Income taxes / reconciliation of effective tax rate

OCI's operations are subject to income taxes in various foreign jurisdictions. The statutory income tax rates vary from 0.0% to 42.2%, which results in a difference between the weighted average statutory income tax rate and the Netherlands' statutory income tax rate of 25.0%.

Reconciliation of the statutory income tax rate in the Netherlands with the effective tax rate can be summarized as follows:
