Project in the amount of approximately NIS 23 million, following a
recommendation by the Local Committee for conditional deposit of a plan
to increase building rights; (2) a fair value increase in the amount of
approximately NIS 20 million in the Midtown Tel Aviv Project, mainly

change in the tenant mix, as compared to the income for the period ended
on December 31, 2023; (3) appreciation in the amount of approximately
NIS 15 million in land in Eilat (Hotel Company); (4) appreciation in the

complex from ICR (a total of approximately NIS 90 million and
approximately NIS 41 million in the corresponding period last year)

It should be emphasized that, in accordance with the guidance of the Israel Securities Authority under Section 36a(b) of the Securities Law, 5728-1968, regarding the required disclosure in the Projected Cash Flow Report, the sources and uses included in the Projected Cash Flow Report are based on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements as well as the Separate (Solo) Financial Statements as defined in Article 9c of the Reporting Regulations.

Below are details about the working capital and the continuous cash flow from current activity

As of December 31, 2024, the Company had a continuing negative cash flow from operating activities in the Separate (Solo) Financial Statements and a continuing negative cash flow from operating activities in the Consolidated Financial Statements, alongside a positive working capital in both the Consolidated Financial Statements and the Separate (Solo) Financial Statements, including for a 12-month period (in accordance with Legal Position No. 105-27: "Disclosure Regarding Projected Cash Flow," published by the Israel Securities Authority on April 1, 2014, as amended from time to time).

1 Material loan agreements for this matter are loan agreements and material loan agreements as defined in Legal Position 104-15: Reportable Credit Event of the Securities Authority as specified in Section 15.3 of the 2024 Report.

It should be noted that the negative cash flow from operating activities in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements includes land acquisitions, primarily concerning to the acquisition of the Dubnov Project in Tel Aviv in the amount of approximately NIS 437 million (for further details, refer to Note 15w to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements), and the acquisition of rights in Lot 306 in Sde Dov in the amount of approximately NIS 128 million (for further details, refer to Note 15u to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements).

Nevertheless, the Company's Board of Directors determined that the continuing negative cash flow from operating activities in the Consolidated Financial Statements, as mentioned above, does not indicate a liquidity problem in the Company and therefore does not constitute a warning sign as defined in Article 10(b)(14) of the Reporting Articles, for the following reasons: the Company has a balance of cash, cash equivalents, and liquid financial assets as of the Report date totaling approximately NIS 539 million; the Company has positive working capital in both the consolidated and solo statements, including positive working capital in the consolidated and solo statements for a 12-month period, based on a review by the Company's management of the projected cash flow, the principal assumptions of which are detailed below:

  • The Company entered into actual financing for the "Rainbow" project.
  • The Company carried out a share allocation after the Report date for a total consideration of approximately NIS 125 million.
  • The Company estimates entering into financing in the Midtown Jerusalem project by the end of the second quarter of 2025.
  • The Company estimates signing a voucher arrangement or a financing agreement in the Canada City "SHE" project by the end of 2025.
  • In the next two years, no additional equity injection will be required for the Vertical project, and the activities in the Vertical project will be financed from the project company's own resources (for further details regarding the entry of Clal as a partner in the project company, refer to the immediate reports dated April 21, 2024, and June 25, 20242 ).
  • Renewal of existing bank credit lines maturing with accepted financing rates for the pledged assets:
    • a. Yielding asset LTV financing of approximately 70%.
    • b. Real estate assets LTV financing of up to 50%.
  • The balance of the Company's bond principal (net) balance as of December 31, 2024, by an identical amount over the next two years.
  • Sale of land (Ramat Hasharon/Uptown/3700/Sunset/Herzliya northern district) and/or bringing in partners and/or allocation in subsidiaries at an average volume of approximately NIS 267 million per year.
  • Dividend distribution at levels similar to the distribution amounts in the last two years.

Given all the above, and considering the sales plan reviewed by the Board of Directors in the Company's various projects and the realizations since the beginning of 2024, the pace of sales in the Company's projects, the Company's ability to raise equity and/or debt in the capital market (the Company has a valid shelf prospectus, rating for existing bonds of ilA-), bank debt raising against assets with an accepted LTV ratio and entering financing for projects promoted by the Company, the Board of Directors has determined (though without any certainty) that there is no evidence of a liquidity problem based on the negative ongoing cash flow from operating activities in the Solo Financial Statements and Consolidated Financial Statements. Therefore, there is no warning sign in the Company.

2 Reference no. 2024-01-044592 and Reference no. 2024-01-064083, respectively, included in this Report by way of reference.

The above statements regarding the assumptions of the Company's Board of Directors constitute forwardlooking information, as defined in the Securities Law, 5728-1968, and are subject to the provisions of the forward-looking information disclaimer included in Section 6.3.3.9 of the Description of the Corporation's Business attached in Part A of this Periodic Report, the Company's risk factors as detailed in Section 21 of the Description of the Corporation's Business attached in Part A of this Periodic Report, and the Board of Directors' assessments may change, including as a result of the Iron Swords War as stated above in this Report, and the increase in interest rates and inflation, potentially even materially.

B.8. Discussion of risk factors

During 2024, the Consumer Price Index increased by approximately 3.2%, following an increase of 3% in 2023.

In light of the rising inflationary environment, Bank of Israel raised the interest rate in an effort to curb price increases, and the prime interest rate rose from 1.6% and 4.75% (at the end of 2021 and 2022, respectively) to 6.25% at the end of 2023. In January 2024, due to the decline in the inflationary environment and the Bank of Israel's intention to stabilize the markets and reduce uncertainty, alongside price stability and support for economic activity, Bank of Israel reduced the interest rate to 6%. According to Bank of Israel's announcement, the continuation of the interest rate reduction trend will be determined based on the continued convergence of inflation to its target, the ongoing stability of the financial markets, economic activity, and fiscal policy. According to Bank of Israel's forecast from January 2025, the inflation rate for the next four quarters (ending in the fourth quarter of 2025) is expected to be 2.6%. This forecast was prepared based on the assumption that the direct economic impact of the war will continue until the end of the first quarter of 2025, after which GDP is expected to gradually converge to a lower trend compared to previous years. According to estimates, the inflation rate during 2026 is expected to moderate to 2.3%.

Changes in the inflation and interest rate environment, as well as the impact of the war (refer to also Section B.3), affect the Company's business environment.

Impact of the interest rate increase:

As of the date of this Report, most of the Company's bank loans presented in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements bear variable interest at the prime rate plus a certain margin. Accordingly, the increase in the prime interest rate had a direct impact on the Company's financing expenses across various projects and a negative impact on the profitability of the projects. For further details regarding the impact of the interest rate increase, refer to Note 26 to the Company's Annual Financial Statements as of December 31, 2024.

As of December 31, 2024, the Group is exposed to market interest rate risk (prime) arising from loans received by the Company from banking corporations in the amount of approximately NIS 4 billion, which bear variable interest (refer also to Note 26 to the Financial Statements as of December 31, 2024). Any further interest rate increase may lead to the following negative effects: (a) An increase in financing costs and a decrease in Company profitability (if sale prices do not rise in response). (b) A negative impact on the ability and feasibility of raising new debt and a deterioration in the credit terms taken by the Group companies. (c) A further increase in mortgage interest rates, which would lead to a decline in real estate market demand. (d) A negative impact on the ability of the Company's customers to meet their obligations to the Company. (e) A change in the capitalization rates used for asset valuations, resulting in a change in the fair value of the Company's investment property. For further information, refer to also Note 26f in the Company's Annual Financial Statements for the year 2024 included in this Periodic Report.

Impact of the inflation rate:

The Group's projects in the area of project establishment are mostly executed through contracts with main contractors for all the work required to establish the project (Turn-Key). The agreements with the main contractors are generally lump-sum contracts indexed to the Construction Input Index. Therefore, an increase in the Construction Input Index (an increase of approximately 4.8% in 2022, approximately 2.0% during 2023, and approximately 2.9% during 2024) impacts project construction costs. However, the engagement with apartment buyers regarding part of the consideration is also indexed to the same index, so the exposure

mentioned is not material to the Company (partially indexed in accordance with Amendment No. 9 to the Sale (Apartments) Law, 5782-2022). Additionally, as of the Report date, the Company has loans linked to the Consumer Price Index. These loans finance income-producing assets whose rental income is also linked to the Consumer Price Index. Therefore, the Company does not have significant exposure in this regard at this stage.

The fair value of the Company's investment property is determined, among other things, by the capitalization rates used to discount future cash flows. If the aforementioned changes impact capitalization rates, it could lead to changes in the fair value of the Company's investment property.

Due to economic, security, and political uncertainty, there may be a return to rising inflation and interest rates, as was the case in the past, and if this trend continues over time, the Israeli economy may return to economic slowdown in general and in the real estate sector in particular. For further information on the rise in interest rates and inflation, refer to also Section 21 of the Description of the Corporation's Business Report attached to this Annual Report.

Housing market3

Although in the initial weeks following the outbreak of the war there was a slowdown in the housing market almost to a complete halt in transactions—in the course of 2024 a revival occurred in the real estate market, supported in part by sales promotions such as extended payment plans (20-80 / 10-90), contractor loans, and exemptions from index-linking. Although the Company seldom offers such financial incentives to its buyers, during the Reporting Year the Company sold apartments and offices in significant volumes. For the Company's sales data in the various projects, refer to the table in Section A above. For details regarding the Bank of Israel's decision to limit such promotions for homebuyers, refer to Section __ of the Description of the Corporation's Business attached in Part A of this Periodic Report.

A comparison of transaction prices in December 2024–January 2025 with those in November–December 2024 indicates that apartment prices increased by 1.2%, and rose by approximately 7.7% compared to the same period last year.

In the central region, and specifically in Tel Aviv, the price changes during December 2024 to January 2025 compared to November–December 2024 were 0.2% and 1.8%, respectively. During those same periods, the prices of new apartments rose by 1.7%, and excluding transactions under government-supported programs, prices increased by 0.9%. In December 2024–January 2025, compared to the same period last year, prices of new apartments rose by approximately 5.4%.

Refer also to the review of the housing market in Israel in Chapter A of this Periodic Report.

It should be noted that as of the signing date of the Report, the Company's estimates as stated in this section above are forward-looking information, as defined in the Securities Law, 5728-1968, based on the Company's management's estimates and understanding of the factors influencing its business activities and the Company's assessments regarding factors beyond its control, as of the Report's signing date. These estimates may not materialize, in whole or in part, or may materialize differently, including materially, from what is expected, due to non-optimal assumptions and analyses, developments that cannot be fully assessed in connection with the war, inflation, and rising interest rates and margins, and/or the realization of some or all of the risk factors detailed in Section 21 of the Description of the Corporation's Business Report. Regarding the rise in inflation and interest rates, it should be noted that if the high-interest environment persists over time and even worsens (i.e., the Bank of Israel's interest rate continues to rise alongside an increase in interest margins and an increase in the equity required from developers by the lending banks), this could lead to a recession and economic slowdown that could result in continued decline in housing demand, a decrease in sale prices, a significant increase in project costs and the Company's financing expenses, and even harm to some of the Company's customers and, consequently, an impact on the Company's operating results. Since these are macroeconomic trends and

the state of the economy in Israel, the Company, in this case, cannot assess the full future effects, if any, on the Company's operations, if any. However, in the Company's estimation, and in light of its financial stability and cash balance, the Company will be able to continue its operations and meet all its obligations.

C. Aspects of corporate governance

C.1. Donations

The Company does not have a policy regarding donations. Upon the outbreak of the war (refer to Section B.3. above) and in light of the complex period experienced by Israeli society, the Company made donations to several organizations with the aim of assisting evacuees and security forces. Total donations in 2024 amounted to approximately NIS 1.5 million, of which approximately NIS 1 million was donated to the "Friends of Tel Aviv Medical Center" association, an entity not affiliated with the Company and/or its controlling shareholders and/or any of its officers. In addition, the Company initiates volunteer activities for its employees in various locations.

Auditors' Report to the Shareholders of Israel Canada (T.R.) Ltd.

Regarding the Audit of Components of Internal Control over Financial Reporting Pursuant to Section 9B(c) of the Securities Law (Periodic and Immediate Reports) 5730-1970

We audited the components of internal control over financial reporting of Israel Canada (T.R.) Ltd. and its subsidiaries (hereinafter jointly: the "Company") as of December 31, 2024 and 2023. These components of internal control were determined as explained in the following paragraph. The Board of Directors and management of the Company are responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for their assessment of the effectiveness of the components of internal control over financial reporting, which is attached to the Periodic Report as of said date. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the components of internal control over financial reporting of the Company based on our audit.

The components of internal control over financial reporting that were audited were determined in accordance with Israeli Auditing Standard 911 issued by the Institute of Certified Public Accountants in Israel, "Audit of Components of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting" (hereinafter: "Israeli Auditing Standard 911"). These components are: (1) entity-level controls, including controls over the financial reporting closing and consolidation process, and general information systems controls; (2) controls over the real estate inventory process; (3) controls over the investment property process; (4) controls over the revenue process; (5) controls over the investment and loan process (including bonds) (all of the above together, hereinafter: the "Audited Control Components").

We conducted our audit in accordance with Israeli Auditing Standard 911. According to this standard, we are required to plan and perform the audit to identify the Audited Control Components and to obtain reasonable assurance as to whether these components were maintained effectively, in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, identifying the Audited Control Components, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists in the Audited Control Components, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of those control components based on the assessed risk. Our audit with respect to those control components also included performing such other procedures as we deemed necessary under the circumstances. Our audit addressed only the Audited Control Components, and not internal control over all material processes related to financial reporting; therefore, our opinion pertains solely to the Audited Control Components. In addition, our audit did not address the interactions between the Audited Control Components and other components not subject to audit, and accordingly, our opinion does not consider any possible effects of such interactions. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion as described above.

Due to inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting in general, and the components thereof in particular, may not prevent or detect misstatements. Furthermore, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to changes in circumstances, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, based on our audit, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective Audited Control Components as of December 31, 2024.

We also audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Israel, the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and our report dated March 24, 2025 included an unqualified opinion on those financial statements based on our audit and the audit reports of the other independent auditors.

We also did not audit the financial statements of certain companies accounted for by the equity method, whose total investment as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 amounted to approximately NIS 263,860 thousand and NIS 143,494 thousand, respectively, and the Company's share of their results for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023, and 2022 amounted to profits of approximately NIS 40,236 thousand, NIS 44,752 thousand, and NIS 45,456 thousand, respectively. The financial statements of those companies were audited by other auditors, whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to amounts included for those companies, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Israel, including standards prescribed by the Certified Public Accountants Regulations (Mode of Performance), 5733-1973. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the Company's Board of Directors and management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit and the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audit and the reports of the other auditors, the above consolidated financial statements fairly present, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company and its consolidated companies as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and their results of operations, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS Accounting Standards) and the provisions of the Securities Law (Annual Financial Statements), 5770-2010.

We also audited, in accordance with Israeli Auditing Standard 911 of the Institute of Certified Public Accountants in Israel, "Audit of Components of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting," the components of internal control over financial reporting of the Company as of December 31, 2024, and our report dated March 24, 2025 included an unqualified opinion on the effective maintenance of those components.

Key Audit Matters:

The Key Audit Matters detailed below are matters that were communicated, or were required to be communicated, to the Company's Board of Directors, and which, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements for 2024. These matters include, among others, any matter that: (1) relates to, or may relate to, material line items or disclosures in the financial statements, and (2) required particularly challenging, subjective, or complex auditor judgment. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit and in forming our opinion on the consolidated financial statements as a whole. The communication of these matters does not alter our opinion on the consolidated financial statements as a whole and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters or on the line items or disclosures to which they relate.

Fair Value of Investment Property

As stated in Notes 2(j), 4(c)(3), and 9 to the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2024, the Company and the entities accounted for using the equity method hold investment properties measured at fair value as of that date in accordance with the accounting policy described in Note 2. The fair value of all investment properties of the Company and its consolidated entities as of December 31, 2024 amounted to NIS 2,893 million, and that of the entities accounted for using the equity method amounted to NIS 1,021 million (Company's share). In 2024, an increase of NIS 27 million in the fair value of investment properties of the Company and its consolidated entities was recorded, as well as an increase of NIS 110 million in the fair value of investment properties of the entities accounted for using the equity method (Company's share).

As described in Note 2(j) to the consolidated financial statements, the determination of fair value of investment property is a material estimate involving uncertainty and is based on valuations that include certain estimates, some of which are subjective, made under the circumstances and using the best information available as of December 31, 2024, and were conducted by independent external appraisers. These estimates include, primarily, the most appropriate yield rate, comparable transactions of similar properties, estimated value per built square meter, the forecasted Net Operating Income (NOI) of the properties, and market prices for comparable units. For the determination of fair value of land not yet under development, location, comparable transactions of similar lands, and adjustments required to such baseline assumptions were considered. The selection of the most appropriate appraisal approach, as well as the determination of the overall fair value estimate of the Group's investment properties, involves subjective judgment in an environment of uncertainty, sometimes significantly so. Therefore, changes in the aforementioned estimates may result in material changes in the fair value of the investment properties and, consequently, may materially impact the Company's financial position as of December 31, 2024 and its operating results for that year, as detailed in Note 9.

We determined, based on our professional judgment, that the estimates and assumptions used by management in measuring the fair value of the investment properties—particularly the reasonableness of the capitalization rates used—constitute a Key Audit Matter. Auditing the fair value of investment properties requires auditor judgment in assessing how management supported the appropriateness of the assumptions and estimates used in determining the fair value of investment property.

Audit Procedures Performed in Response to the Key Audit Matter:

To address the uncertainties involved in determining the fair value of the Group's investment properties, we performed, among others, the following procedures, focusing on assessing the reasonableness of the capitalization rates used in the property valuations:

  • (1) Gained an understanding of the internal control environment regarding the determination of the fair value of investment properties and tested the effectiveness of relevant internal controls over their fair value determination;
  • (2) Examined and analyzed fair value presentations, primarily valuation reports, prepared by the Company through its external appraisers, based on a sample selected using both quantitative and qualitative criteria;
  • (3) Evaluated the experience, qualifications, and independence of the Company's appraisers;
  • (4) Examined the baseline assumptions used in the valuation reports, selected on a sample basis, with emphasis on assessing the capitalization rates, forecasted NOI, comparable transactions, value per built square meter, and the valuation approach applied;
  • (5) Reviewed, on a sample basis, valuations prepared by our own independent expert appraisers;
  • (6) Maintained ongoing communication with the Company's appraisers;
  • (7) Involved senior members of the engagement team and held consultations;
  • (8) Assessed the adequacy of disclosures regarding the valuation methodologies and assumptions used by the appraisers.

Fair Value of Fixed Assets Measured Using the Revaluation Model

As stated in Notes 2(i), 4(c)(4), and 10 to the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2024, the Company holds fixed assets, including hotels measured using the revaluation model, presented at their fair value as of that date in accordance with the accounting policy described in Note 2. Out of the Company's total fixed assets balance of NIS 807 million as of December 31, 2024, a balance of NIS 572 million is presented under the revaluation model.

We did not audit a consolidated company whose assets include hotel properties measured using the revaluation model in the amount of NIS 492 million as of December 31, 2024. The financial statements of that company were audited by other independent auditors, whose reports have been submitted to us. Our opinion, to the extent it relates to amounts included for that company, is based on the reports of the other auditors.

As described in Note 2(i) to the consolidated financial statements, the determination of the fair value of hotel buildings within fixed assets is a material estimate involving uncertainty and is based on valuations conducted by independent external appraisers not affiliated with the Company. These valuations include assumptions, some of which are subjective, based on the circumstances and best information available as of December 31, 2024, and were carried out with the assistance of independent real estate appraisers. These assumptions include primarily the most appropriate capitalization rate, comparable transactions for similar assets in terms of location, characteristics, and risk profile, the forecasted operating income of the properties, and estimated renovation and maintenance costs. The overall determination of the fair value estimate of the Group's hotels, including the selection of the most appropriate appraisal approach, involves the application of subjective judgment in an environment of uncertainty, sometimes significantly so. Consequently, changes in the aforementioned baseline assumptions may result in material changes to the fair value of the hotels, which may also affect the Company's financial position as of December 31, 2024 and its comprehensive income for that year, as detailed in Note 10.

We determined, based on our professional judgment, that the estimates and assumptions used by management in measuring the fair value of the hotels—particularly the reasonableness of the yield rates and forecasted operating income used in such valuations—constitute a Key Audit Matter. Auditing the fair value of the hotels requires auditor judgment to assess how management substantiated the appropriateness of the assumptions and estimates used in determining the fair value of the investment property.

Audit Procedures Performed in Response to the Key Audit Matter:

In response to the uncertainties involved in determining the fair value of the Group's hotels, we and the auditors of the consolidated company primarily performed the following procedures, with emphasis on assessing the reasonableness of the yield rates and forecasted operating income used in the asset valuations:

  • (1) Gained an understanding of the control environment regarding the determination of the fair value of the hotels;
  • (2) Examined and analyzed the fair value presentations, primarily valuations, prepared by the Group through its external appraisers, based on a sample involving both quantitative and qualitative considerations;
  • (3) Examined the baseline assumptions used in the valuations, selected on a sample basis, with emphasis on the yield rates, forecasted operating income, comparable transactions, and the valuation approach applied;
  • (4) Assessed the experience, qualifications, and independence of the Company's appraisers;
  • (5) Reviewed, on a sample basis, valuations performed by our expert appraisers and by the auditors of other companies;
  • (6) Maintained ongoing communication with the Group's appraisers;
  • (7) Involved senior members of the engagement team and held consultations;
  • (8) Assessed the adequacy of disclosures related to the valuation methods and the estimates used by the appraisers.

Note 1 – General

A. Israel Canada (T.R.) Ltd. (hereinafter: the "Company") was incorporated in Israel and its registered office is located in Herzliya Pituach. The Company is controlled by Barak Rosen and Asaf Touchmair.

The Company is engaged, both directly and through subsidiaries, in identifying and executing real estate investments, including initiating and constructing projects in Israel, initiating and managing purchasing groups in Israel, selling land in Israel, investing in and holding income-producing real estate, investing in innovation-related corporations with a connection to the real estate sector, and investing and operating in the hotel sector, primarily in Israel.

For information regarding the Company's operating segments, refer to Note 28.

B. The Company's securities are listed for trading on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.

For further information regarding the Company's bonds, refer to Note 13.

C. For the impact of the "Iron Swords" war on the Company, refer to Note 31.

Note 2 – Principal Accounting Policies

A. Statement Regarding Application of IFRS Accounting Standards and Presentation Format of the Financial Statements

The consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS Accounting Standards) and interpretations issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB®). The accounting policies described below were applied consistently throughout all reporting periods presented in these consolidated financial statements, except for changes in accounting policy due to the adoption of new standards, amendments to standards, and interpretations that became effective as of the financial statement date, as described in Note 3A, and except for a voluntary change in accounting policy regarding the presentation of the Company's share in results of investments accounted for using the equity method and the implementation of the revaluation model for hotels owned by the Company in Israel (land component leased from the Israel Land Authority), as described in Note 2(u).

The financial statements were prepared in accordance with the Securities Regulations (Annual Financial Statements), 5770-2010 (hereinafter: the "Financial Statements Regulations").

Operating Cycle and Presentation of the Statement of Financial Position:

The Group has two operating cycles. Regarding construction and development projects, the operating cycle ranges from three to five years and may extend up to seven years, depending on the size and scope of the project. For other activities, the operating cycle is one year. Accordingly, when the operating cycle exceeds one year, the assets and liabilities related to that activity are classified as current assets and liabilities in the statement of financial position in accordance with the operating cycle. Items not specifically linked to a particular line of activity, such as bonds, are classified according to a 12-month operating cycle.

The Group's policy is to reclassify land inventory from non-current to current assets when there is a high likelihood that permits will be obtained within 12 months from the end of the reporting period.

B. Format of Expense Classification in the Statement of Profit or Loss:

The Company's expenses in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income are presented based on the function of the expense. The Group believes that, given the Group's organizational structure, this classification provides more reliable and relevant information.

Note 2 – Principal Accounting Policies (continued):

C. Foreign Currency:

(1) Functional and Presentation Currency:

The financial statements of each of the Group's companies are prepared in the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates (hereinafter: the "Functional Currency"). For the purpose of consolidating the financial statements, the results and financial position of each of the Group's companies are translated into NIS, which is the Functional Currency of the Company. For information regarding exchange rates and changes therein during the reporting periods, refer to Section U below.

(2) Transactions in a Currency Other than the Functional Currency:

In preparing the financial statements of each of the Group's companies, transactions in currencies other than the respective company's Functional Currency (hereinafter: "Foreign Currency") are recorded at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in Foreign Currency are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at that date; non-monetary items measured at fair value and denominated in Foreign Currency are translated at the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined; non-monetary items measured in terms of historical cost are translated at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction related to the non-monetary item.

(3) Recognition of Exchange Differences:

Exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise, except in the following cases:

Exchange differences relating to assets under construction for sale are included in the cost of such assets when they represent an adjustment to interest costs on Foreign Currency borrowings (regarding the Group's accounting policy for capitalization of borrowing costs, refer to Section K below).

• Exchange differences arising on monetary items receivable from or payable to a foreign operation, the settlement of which is neither planned nor likely to occur and thus form part of the net investment in the foreign operation, are recognized in other comprehensive income under "Exchange Differences Arising from Translation of Foreign Operations."

(4) Translation of Financial Statements of Subsidiaries Whose Functional Currency is Different from the NIS:

For the purpose of presenting the consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates during the reporting period unless exchange rates fluctuate significantly during that period, in which case the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used. Translation differences are recognized in other comprehensive income under "Exchange Differences Arising from Translation of Foreign Operations."

D. Cash and Cash Equivalents:

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits, and short-term deposits that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value, with original maturities of three months or less at the date of investment.

E. Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents:

Cash restricted for use by the Group under credit agreements, or which is designated for use solely for specific projects in accompanying bank accounts for such projects and cannot be withdrawn by the Company without bank approval, is classified as restricted cash. In addition, deposits that are restricted in use or have original maturities of more than three months at the date of investment are classified under restricted cash. Classification between current and non-current assets is based on the term of the deposit/restriction period and the applicable operating cycle.

Note 2 – Principal Accounting Policies (continued):

F. Consolidated Financial Statements:

(1) General:

The consolidated financial statements of the Group include the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company, directly or indirectly. An investing entity controls an investee when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the investee and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the investee.

The results of operations of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the reporting period are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss from the date control is obtained or until the date control ceases, as applicable.

(2) Non-Controlling Interests:

Non-controlling interests in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries are presented separately within the Group's equity. Non-controlling interests include the amount of those interests at the date of the business combination (refer below) and their share in changes in equity subsequent to the business combination date.

In cases where the Company has contractual arrangements that include "waterfall" mechanisms for profit distribution—meaning the distribution rates differ from the equity ownership percentages (Members) in the subsidiaries (based on the cumulative return on equity investments)—the Company applies the Hypothetical Liquidation at Book Value method.

Under this method, the share of the Company and the non-controlling interests in the results of the subsidiary is determined based on a hypothetical liquidation of the subsidiary at the end of the reporting period, assuming the subsidiary sells or distributes its assets and settles its liabilities at carrying amount, taking into account additional contributions or distributions made by other equity holders.

G. Joint Arrangements:

A "joint arrangement" is a contractual arrangement whereby the Group and other parties undertake an economic activity subject to joint control. Joint control exists when the contractual arrangement requires unanimous consent of the parties sharing control over decisions regarding the relevant activities.

There are two types of joint arrangements. The classification depends on the rights and obligations of the parties:

A "joint venture" is a joint arrangement whereby the parties have rights to the net assets of the arrangement.

In joint arrangements classified as joint ventures, the Group accounts for the joint venture as an investment and applies the equity method. For details on the equity method, refer to Note 2(H) below.

The Company holds a 55.9% interest in Vertical City Ltd., which is accounted for using the equity method since the agreement with the partner grants them joint control over the decision-making related to the relevant activities that affect the investee's returns. For more information, refer to Note 8b(4)g.

A "joint operation" is a joint arrangement in which the parties to it have rights in the assets and obligations regarding the liabilities that relate to the arrangement, in proportion to their share in the assets and liabilities of the joint operation, including assets held and liabilities incurred jointly. The balance sheet includes the Group's proportional share in the assets and liabilities of the joint operation. The profit and loss statement includes the Group's proportional share in the income and expenses of the joint operation, including income generated and expenses incurred jointly.

Transactions between Group companies and jointly controlled operations held by the Company are recognized only to the extent of the other parties' interests in the joint operation.

Note 2 – Principal Accounting Policies (continued):

H. Investments in Companies Accounted for Using the Equity Method (Associates and Joint Ventures):

An associate is an entity over which the Group has significant influence and which is neither a subsidiary nor a joint arrangement.

The results, assets, and liabilities of associates and joint ventures are included in these financial statements using the equity method.

Under the equity method, investments in associates and joint ventures are recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost as adjusted for post-acquisition changes in the Group's share of the investee's net assets, including capital reserves, less any impairment in the value of the associate or joint venture, if any.

I. Fixed Assets:

(1) General:

Items of fixed assets of the Group are presented in the statement of financial position at cost less accumulated depreciation, except for the Group's hotels (land component under lease agreement), as described below, and less accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes the purchase price of the asset and directly attributable costs necessary to bring the asset to the location and condition for the operation as intended by management.

Items of fixed assets within the Group's hotel segment (land component under lease agreement) are presented in the statement of financial position at revalued amounts. The revalued amounts represent the fair value of those assets at the date of the revaluation, determined based on market-based evidence through valuation by qualified appraisers, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation.

Revaluations are performed with sufficient regularity such that the carrying amount does not differ materially from the fair value at the end of the reporting period. Increases in the carrying amount of revalued items of fixed assets are recognized in other comprehensive income, except for increases that reverse a previous revaluation decrease recognized in profit or loss, which are recognized in profit or loss. Decreases in the carrying amount resulting from a revaluation are first recognized in other comprehensive income to the extent of any revaluation surplus for that asset, and any remaining decrease is recognized in profit or loss. When a revalued asset is sold or retired, the related revaluation surplus is transferred directly to retained earnings or is transferred during the use of the asset by the entity in an amount equal to the difference between depreciation based on the revalued carrying amount and depreciation based on the original cost.

(2) Depreciation of Fixed Assets:

Depreciation of fixed assets is performed separately for each significant depreciable component of a fixed assets item. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of each component from the date the asset is ready for its intended use, considering the expected residual value at the end of its useful life. The cost of fixed assets includes the initial estimate of the cost of dismantling and removing the asset and restoring the site on which it is located.

The estimated useful lives and depreciation rates used in the calculation are as follows:

Useful life Depreciation rates
Buildings (including hotels and right-of-use properties) 25 years 1%-4%
Office furniture and equipment 6-17 years 6% -
15%
Installations and leasehold improvements 10 years 10%
Computers and software 3 years 33%

Note 2 – Principal Accounting Policies (continued):

I. Fixed Assets (continued):

(2) Depreciation of Fixed Assets (continued):

Residual values, depreciation methods, and useful lives are reviewed by the Company's management at each financial year-end. Any changes are accounted for as changes in estimates on a prospective basis.

Gains or losses arising from the sale or disposal of an item of fixed assets are determined as the difference between the proceeds from the sale and the carrying amount at the time of sale or disposal and are recognized in profit or loss.

(3) Subsequent Costs:

The cost of replacing a part of an item of fixed assets is recognized in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the entity and its cost can be measured reliably. Routine maintenance costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

J. Investment Property:

Investment property is property (land or a building—or part of a building—or both) held by the Group to earn rental income, for capital appreciation, or both, and not for use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes, or for sale in the ordinary course of business. Investment property also includes properties under construction or development for future use as investment property.

The Group's investment property includes land owned or held under long-term lease from the Israel Land Authority. Investment property is initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of investment property, including those due to changes in exchange rates, are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they arise under "Increase in Fair Value of Investment Property" or "Decrease in Fair Value of Investment Property," respectively.

Investment property under development intended for future use as investment property is also measured at fair value as described above, provided the fair value can be reliably measured. The cost basis of investment property under development includes the cost of the land plus directly attributable planning and development costs and borrowing costs incurred for the construction.

Direct costs incurred in the realization of investment property are recognized in profit or loss at the time of sale and offset against the realized gain.

When a property previously classified as investment property is reclassified to inventory, its deemed cost is the fair value at the date of the change in use.

K. Borrowing Costs:

Borrowing costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction, or production of qualifying assets assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale (including investment property measured at fair value)—are capitalized as part of the cost of those assets until the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale.

Borrowing costs relating to general borrowings are capitalized to qualifying assets using a capitalization rate. The capitalization rate is the weighted average of the borrowing costs applicable to the Company's general borrowings during the period, excluding specific borrowings.

In the area of real estate development in Israel, the Group ceases capitalizing borrowing costs to inventory at the point when non-conditional sales can be made, representing the time when substantially all activities required for the sale have been completed.

All other borrowing costs are recognized in profit or loss when incurred.

The Group stops capitalizing borrowing costs to inventory when unconditional sales can be carried out, which constitutes the date on which all actions required for the sale have substantively ended.

Note 2 – Principal Accounting Policies (continued):

L. Inventory of Land, Buildings, and Apartments for Sale:

Inventory of land, buildings, and apartments for sale includes land and buildings under construction by the Group for the purpose of sale in the ordinary course of business. The cost of inventory includes direct costs of land acquisition (including purchase taxes), materials, subcontractor work, and capitalized borrowing costs as detailed in Note 2K. Fees for sale law guarantees are considered part of inventory costs (including fees for related credit lines).

Inventory of residential land, buildings, and apartments is measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value. In subsequent periods, for sold apartments, the residential apartment inventory is charged to cost of sales based on the percentage of completion.

The Group allocates costs to each sales contract individually to reflect the contract's cost pricing relative to the customer, as described below: land costs (including fees, levies, and land financing) and other shared construction costs that cannot be attributed to a specific apartment are allocated to each contract in proportion to the apartment's sale price relative to the total sales of the entire building.

Net realizable value represents the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion, estimated costs necessary to make the sale, and estimated project-specific financing costs not yet charged to the statement of profit or loss.

The Group reclassifies land inventory from non-current assets to current assets when excavation and shoring permits and/or a building permit are expected to be obtained within 12 months from the reporting date.

The Group allocates costs in mixed-use properties based on relative fair value.

M. Financial Assets:

(1) General:

Investments in financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs, except for those financial assets classified at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially recognized at fair value.

(2) Classification of Financial Assets:

Debt instruments are measured at amortized cost when both of the following conditions are met:

  • The Group's business model is to hold the assets in order to collect contractual cash flows; and
  • The contractual terms of the asset give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding.

All other financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss.

(3) Financial Assets Measured at Amortized Cost and the Effective Interest Method:

The amortized cost of a financial asset is the amount at which the financial asset is measured at initial recognition less principal repayments, plus or minus the cumulative amortization, using the effective interest method, of any difference between the initial amount and the maturity amount, adjusted for any loss allowance.

The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a debt instrument and allocating and recognizing interest income in profit or loss over the relevant period. Interest income is calculated using the effective interest method.

Note 2 – Principal Accounting Policies (continued):

M. Financial Assets (continued):

(4) Financial Assets at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss:

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period. Any gain or loss resulting from changes in fair value is recognized in profit or loss in the period in which the change occurs. The net gain or loss recognized in profit or loss includes any dividend or interest income earned on the financial asset.

Interest income from debt instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss is included in the finance income section.

N. Financial Liabilities and Equity Instruments Issued by the Group:

(1) Classification as Financial Liability or Equity Instrument:

Liabilities and equity instruments issued by the Group are classified as either financial liabilities or equity instruments based on the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.

(2) Equity Instruments:

An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the Group's assets after deducting all its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Group are recognized at the proceeds received, net of direct issuance costs.

In transactions where non-controlling interests transfer their investments into a partnership controlled by the Company, and the redemption date is at the sole discretion of the general partner, such interests are classified as non-controlling interests.

(3) Financial Liabilities:

Financial Liabilities at Amortized Cost:

Financial liabilities not measured at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognized at fair value less transaction costs. After initial recognition, such financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.

O. Revenue Recognition:

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods or the rendering of services in the ordinary course of business. Revenue is presented net of estimated discounts and similar adjustments. Sales that include credit terms with a financing component are presented at their present value, calculated using a discount rate that reflects the difference between the nominal sale price and the cash sale price of the goods or services.

(1) Revenue from Brokerage and Marketing Fees:

Revenue from real estate brokerage and marketing services is recognized based on the entitlement to income according to the brokerage or marketing contracts in the transaction. Revenue is recognized when the Company satisfies a performance obligation by transferring the promised services to the customer. Revenue is recognized over time during the reporting period in which the brokerage and marketing services are provided.

Note 2 – Principal Accounting Policies (continued):

O. Revenue Recognition (continued):

(2) Revenue from Management Fees:

The Group is entitled to receive management fee income from purchasing groups in accordance with management agreements signed with group members, which define, among other things, the distribution of management fees according to specific project milestones. Revenue from management fees is recognized no earlier than when a milestone is achieved in accordance with the management agreement. Upon achievement of a milestone and fulfillment of the related performance obligation entitling the Group to management fees for a specific project, the Group determines the portion of the management fee income to be recognized based on the ratio between the investment and expenses incurred to date in managing the purchasing group and the estimated total investment and expenses required to manage the group until the project's completion.

(3) Dividend Revenue:

Dividend revenue from investments is recognized when the right to receive the dividend is established.

(4) Rental Revenue:

Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Any fixed increase in rent over the lease period is recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(5) Revenue Recognition from Sale of Land Inventory:

The Group recognizes revenue from the sale of land inventory when control over the land is transferred to the customer.

For the judgment applied by the Company regarding revenue recognition, refer to Note 4(b).

(6) Revenue Recognition from the Sale of Apartments:

The Group engages in residential real estate development for the construction and sale of residential apartments in Israel. Upon signing a contract with a customer, and in accordance with its terms, the Group identifies the residential units as performance obligations.

The Group has concluded, based on the applicable legal and regulatory framework in Israel's real estate development sector, and supported by legal opinions, that under its customer contracts, the asset does not have an alternative use to the Group, and that it has an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. Accordingly, the Group recognizes revenue from such contracts over time, based on the progress of contract performance.

Determination of the Transaction Price:

The Group is required to determine the transaction price separately for each customer contract. In applying this judgment, the Group evaluates the impact of any variable consideration in the contract, considering discounts, penalties, variations, claims, the existence of a significant financing component, and any non-cash consideration.

In determining the impact of variable consideration, the Group typically uses the "most likely amount" method, as stated in the standard, whereby the transaction price is determined based on the single most likely amount within the range of possible consideration amounts under the contract.

Note 2 – Principal Accounting Policies (continued):

O. Revenue Recognition (continued):

(6) Revenue Recognition from the Sale of Apartments (continued):

Measurement of Progress Toward Completion:

The Company applies the input method to measure progress when performance obligations are satisfied over time. The Company believes that using the input method (incurred costs), which recognizes revenue based on the inputs invested to fulfill the performance obligation, most appropriately reflects the revenue earned. To apply the input method, the Company estimates the cost necessary to complete the project to determine the amount of revenue to be recognized. These estimates include the cost of providing infrastructure (such as materials, labor hours, equipment, etc.), potential contractor claims as assessed by the project consultant, and the cost of fulfilling other contractual performance obligations to customers. The Company does not include in the calculation of "percentage of completion" any costs that do not reflect progress in performance, such as land cost, fees and levies, and borrowing costs.

Revenue Recognition for Contracts Signed After Progress Has Begun:

In cases where the Company begins work related to an expected contract before a binding contract has been signed with the customer, or before the contract reaches the stage at which revenue can be recognized under the revenue recognition model, upon contract signing, the Company recognizes cumulative revenue ("Catch Up") reflecting the performance obligations that have been partially or fully completed as of the contract signing date.

Warranty Obligations:

To assess whether a warranty provides a separate service to the customer, the Group considers, among other factors: whether the customer can purchase the warranty separately; whether the warranty is required by law; the duration of the warranty period; and the nature of the tasks the Group undertakes to perform.

In real estate development contracts, the Group provides warranties to customers according to the contract, applicable laws, or industry practices. When the warranty is intended solely to ensure the quality of the work and compliance with the agreed-upon specifications, it does not constitute a separate service to the customer. Accordingly, in such cases, the Group does not recognize the warranty as a separate performance obligation but accounts for it in accordance with IAS 37 and recognizes a provision for warranty based on an estimate of the related service costs. The provision for warranty is recognized even if the contractor is contractually obligated to provide warranty services to the Company's customers.

Contract Asset and Contract Liability:

A contract asset (receivable revenue) is recognized when the Group has a right to consideration for goods or services transferred to the customer and the right is conditional on something other than the passage of time, such as future performance by the Group. Contract assets are classified as receivables when the rights become unconditional.

A contract liability (advance payments) is recognized when the Group is obligated to transfer goods or services to a customer for which it has received consideration from the customer (or when the amount is due).

An asset and a liability relating to the same contract are presented on a net basis in the statement of financial position. However, contract assets and contract liabilities arising from different contracts are presented on a gross basis in the statement of financial position.

(7) Revenue from Hotel Operation and Management:

Revenue from hotel operations and hotel services is recognized in the reporting period in which the services are provided, as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Group.

In addition, the Group is entitled to management fee income under management agreements for ongoing management and consulting services in the hotel and tourism sectors.

Note 2 – Principal Accounting Policies (continued):

O. Revenue Recognition (continued):

(8) Revenue Recognition on a Gross or Net Basis:

In transactions where the Group acts as an agent or intermediary without bearing the risks and rewards of the transaction, the Group's revenues are presented on a net basis. Revenue from transactions in which the Group is the principal and bears the associated risks and rewards is presented on a gross basis.

The Group assesses that in real estate management service transactions, it controls the service before it is transferred to the customer, and therefore revenue from such services is presented on a gross basis. The Group has determined that it controls the services because it is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the service and has discretion in setting the price charged to the end customer.

P. Leases:

The Group as Lessee:

The Group assesses whether a contract is (or contains) a lease at the contract engagement date. The Group recognizes a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all lease contracts in which it is the lessee (primarily in the hotel segment), except for short-term leases (up to 12 months) and leases of low-value assets. For such leases, the Group recognizes lease payments as an operating expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term, unless another systematic basis better represents the Group's pattern of consumption of economic benefits from the leased assets.

The lease term is defined as the non-cancellable period during which the lessee has the right to use the underlying asset, together with:

  • Periods covered by an option to extend the lease if it is reasonably certain the lessee will exercise that option; and
  • Periods covered by an option to terminate the lease if it is reasonably certain the lessee will not exercise that option.

In determining the lease term, the Group considers extension options that are reasonably certain to be exercised at lease commencement. The likelihood of exercising extension options is evaluated considering factors such as lease payments during extension periods versus market rates, significant improvements made by the Group expected to provide substantial economic benefit during the extension period, costs related to terminating the lease (negotiation, relocation, finding a replacement asset), the asset's importance to the Group's operations, the leased asset's location, and the availability of suitable alternatives.

The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of lease payments that are not paid at the commencement date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the Group uses its incremental borrowing rate. The lessee's incremental borrowing rate is defined as the interest rate the lessee would have to pay to borrow over a similar term and with similar security the funds necessary to obtain an asset of similar value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment.

Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability comprise:

  • Fixed lease payments (including substantively fixed payments), less any lease incentives received;
  • Variable lease payments that depend on an index or rate, measured initially using the index or rate as of the commencement date;
  • Amounts expected to be payable by the lessee under residual value guarantees;
  • The exercise price of a purchase option if it is reasonably certain the lessee will exercise that option;
  • Penalties for terminating the lease, if the lease term reflects the lessee exercising an option to terminate the lease.

Note 2 – Principal Accounting Policies (continued):

P. Leases (continued):

The Group as Lessee (continued):

The lease liability is presented as a separate item in the statement of financial position. The lease liability is subsequently measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability using the effective interest method and by reducing the carrying amount to reflect lease payments made. Foreign exchange differences on a lease liability denominated in a foreign currency are recorded in finance expenses in the statement of profit or loss when incurred.

The Group remeasures the lease liability (with a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use asset) when:

  • The lease term changes or there is a change in the assessment of an option to purchase the underlying asset. In this case, the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the revised lease payments using an updated discount rate.
  • Future lease payments change due to a change in an index or rate used to determine those payments (e.g., CPI-linked leases) or when there is a change in expected payments under a residual value guarantee. In such cases, the lease liability is remeasured using the original discount rate, unless the lease payments change due to changes in variable interest rates, in which case an updated discount rate is used.
  • A lease modification occurs that is not accounted for as a separate lease. In such a case, the lease liability is remeasured by discounting the updated lease payments using a revised discount rate. If the lease modification reduces the lease scope, a gain or loss is recognized reflecting the full or partial termination of the lease.

The Group did not make any such adjustments during the presented reporting periods.

The cost of the right-of-use asset comprises the initial measurement of the lease liability, any lease payments made on or before the commencement date, and initial direct costs. Subsequently, the right-of-use asset is measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

The right-of-use asset is measured under the cost model and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term and the useful life of the asset. If the lease transfers ownership of the underlying asset to the Group or if the cost of the right-of-use asset reflects the exercise of a purchase option, the right-of-use asset is depreciated on a straight-line or output basis over the useful life of the underlying asset. Depreciation begins at the commencement date of the lease.

The Group applies the provisions of IAS 36 Impairment of Assets to assess whether the right-of-use asset is impaired and to account for any identified impairment losses.

The right-of-use asset is presented as a separate item in the statement of financial position.

Variable lease payments that are not based on an index or rate (e.g., payments based on a percentage of sales or output) are not included in the measurement of the lease liability or the right-of-use asset. These lease payments are recognized as an operating expense in the period in which the event or condition that triggers those payments occurs and are presented under "Other Expenses" in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Q. Provisions:

Provisions are recognized when the Group has a legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation.

The amount recognized as a provision represents the best estimate by management of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the date of the statement of financial position, considering risks and uncertainties of the obligation. Where a provision is measured using estimated future cash flows, the provision's carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows. Changes due to the time value are recognized in profit or loss.

Where the Group expects some or all of the expenditure required to settle a provision to be reimbursed by another party, it recognizes an asset for the reimbursement only when it is virtually certain that the reimbursement will be received and the amount can be reliably measured.

Note 2 – Principal Accounting Policies (continued):

R. Income Taxes:

(1) General:

Income tax expenses (income) include both current taxes and changes in deferred tax balances, excluding deferred taxes related to transactions recognized directly in equity.

(2) Current Taxes:

Current tax expenses are calculated based on the taxable income of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries during the reporting period. Taxable income differs from profit before taxes on income due to the inclusion or exclusion of income and expense items that are taxable or deductible in different reporting periods, or not taxable/deductible at all. Current tax assets and liabilities are calculated based on enacted or substantively enacted tax rates and tax laws as of the date of the statement of financial position.

(3) Deferred Taxes:

The Group's companies create deferred taxes for temporary differences between the tax base of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax balances (asset or liability) are calculated based on the tax rates expected to apply when the temporary differences reverse, using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the date of the statement of financial position. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all temporary differences between the tax value of assets and liabilities and their value in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets are recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable income will be available against which the deductible temporary difference can be utilized.

In calculating deferred taxes, taxes that would apply in the event of realization of investments in subsidiaries are not taken into account, as the Group intends to hold and develop those investments. Likewise, deferred taxes on dividend distributions from such entities are not recognized if the dividends are tax-exempt or if there is a decision not to distribute taxable dividends in the foreseeable future.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority and the Group intends to settle the current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.

Deferred taxes on temporary differences related to investment property are determined based on the tax rate expected upon reversal of the temporary difference, assuming the reversal will occur through sale of the asset.

S. Employee Benefits:

Short-Term Employee Benefits:

Short-term employee benefits are those expected to be settled in full within 12 months after the end of the reporting year in which the employee has rendered the related service.

Short-term employee benefits in the Group include the Group's obligation for salaries, vacation days, sick leave, recreation pay, and employer contributions to National Insurance. These benefits are recognized in profit or loss when they are incurred. The benefits are measured on an undiscounted basis at the amount the Company expects to pay. The difference between the short term benefits to which the employee is entitled and the amounts paid is recognized as an asset or a liability.

Note 2 – Principal Accounting Policies (continued):

T. Classification of Interest, Dividends, and Taxes Paid or Received in the Statement of Cash Flows:

The Group classifies cash flows from interest and dividends received and interest paid as cash flows from operating activities. Cash flows related to capitalized interest on qualifying assets are classified consistently with other payments made for those assets. Dividends paid by the Group are classified as cash flows from financing activities.

Cash flows related to income taxes are generally classified as cash flows used in operating activities, except for those which can be clearly associated with investing or financing activities.

U. Voluntary Change in Accounting Policy:

(1) Presentation of the Company's Share in in Results of Investments Under the Equity Method:

The Company has elected to classify its share in the results of investments accounted for under the equity method as part of operating profit, rather than presenting it after operating profit and finance expenses. Management believes this presentation provides more reliable and relevant information regarding the Company's operating profit, which now includes the results of companies accounted for under the equity method, operating in the same business segments as the Group.

(2) Adoption of the Revaluation Model for Hotels Owned by the Company:

As of December 31, 2024, the Company changed its accounting policy for measuring hotels it owns (land component under lease agreement) from the cost model to the revaluation model. Management believes that measurement under the revaluation model provides more reliable and relevant information regarding the Company's financial position and equity, and improves comparability with financial statements of other companies operating in the same field.

The change to the revaluation model for hotels will be applied prospectively. Accordingly, until this date, the Company's hotels were presented under the cost model, net of accumulated depreciation.

In light of this, the Company remeasured the carrying amount of its owned hotels to their fair value as of December 31, 2024, in a total amount of approximately NIS 175 million. The revaluation was recorded to the revaluation reserve in equity, net of tax effect in the amount of approximately NIS 135 million. In subsequent periods, the fixed assets will be presented at fair value less accumulated depreciation and less impairment. Revaluations will be performed regularly to ensure that the carrying amount in the financial statements does not differ materially from fair value at the reporting date.

V. Exchange Rates and Indexation Basis:

Balances in or linked to foreign currencies are included in the financial statements based on the representative exchange rates published by the Bank of Israel and valid as of the end of the reporting period.

Note 3 – New Financial Reporting Standards, Published Interpretations, and Amendments to Standards

  • A. New standards, new interpretations, and amendments to standards affecting the current period and/or prior reporting periods:
    • Amendments to IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements" (regarding the classification of liabilities as current or non-current):

In 2020, an amendment to IAS 1 was published regarding the classification of liabilities as current or noncurrent (hereinafter: the "2020 Amendment"). The amendment clarified that the classification of liabilities as current or non-current is based on the rights existing to the entity as of the end of the reporting period and is not affected by the entity's expectations regarding the exercise of such rights.

The amendment removed the reference to the existence of an "unconditional right" to defer settlement of a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period and clarified that if the right to defer settlement is subject to meeting financial covenants, the right exists if the entity meets the covenants as of the reporting date, even if compliance is assessed by the lender at a later date.

Additionally, the amendment introduced a definition for the term "settlement," clarifying that settlement may include the transfer of cash, goods, services, or the entity's own equity instruments to the counterparty. In this context, it was clarified that if, according to the terms of the liability, the counterparty has an option to demand settlement in the entity's own equity instruments, such a condition does not affect the classification of the liability as current or non-current if the option is classified as a separate equity component under IAS 32 "Financial Instruments: Presentation."

The amendment affects only the classification of liabilities as current or non-current in the statement of financial position, not the amount or timing of recognition of such liabilities or related income and expenses.

In October 2022, an additional amendment regarding the classification of liabilities with financial covenants was published (hereinafter: the "2022 Amendment"), which clarified that only financial covenants that the entity must comply with as of or before the end of the reporting period affect the entity's right to defer settlement of a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period, even if compliance is actually assessed after the reporting date. In contrast, financial covenants required to be met after the reporting date do not affect the existence of such a right as of the end of the reporting period.

Additionally, the 2022 Amendment requires that the entity's right to postpone the settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period is subject to the entity meeting the financial criteria within 12 months after the reporting period, the entity is required to provide disclosure that will allow the users of the financial statements to understand the involved risks.

All other changes introduced in the 2020 Amendment remain unchanged. The 2020 and 2022 Amendments became mandatorily effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024.

The amendment did not have a material impact on the financial statements.

IFRS IC Decision regarding Disclosure of Income and Expenses for Reportable Segments:

In July 2024, the IASB approved the IFRS Interpretations Committee's (IFRS IC) decision regarding disclosure of income and expenses for reportable segments (hereinafter: the "Decision").

The Decision addresses the application of the disclosure requirements under Section 23 of IFRS 8 "Operating Segments" and clarifies that disclosure must include "material items of income and expense" if they are included in the measure of profit or loss reviewed by the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM), even if not separately provided to them. Additionally, it was clarified that "material items of income and expense" are not limited only to unusual or one-time items.

The Decision also clarified that judgment is required in determining the extent of disclosure to be included in segment reporting, considering the entity's specific facts and circumstances, the core principle of IFRS 8, and the materiality principles in IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements."

The Company implemented the Decision in these financial statements retrospectively. As a result, the Company added information regarding material expense items in the segment note, refer to Note 28.

Note 3 – New Financial Reporting Standards, Published Interpretations, and Amendments to Standards (continued):

  • A. New standards, new interpretations, and amendments to standards affecting the current period and/or prior reporting periods (continued):
    • Amendment to IFRS 10 "Consolidated Financial Statements" and IAS 28 "Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures" (regarding the sale or transfer of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture):

The amendment states that when assets that constitute a "business" are sold or transferred to an associate or joint venture, or when control is lost over a subsidiary that constitutes a "business" while retaining joint control/significant influence, the full gain or loss from the transaction should be recognized, including the loss of control. Conversely, if the sold/transferred assets do not constitute a "business," or the subsidiary does not constitute a "business," only the portion of gain or loss attributable to the other investors in the associate or joint venture should be recognized. No effective date has been set for the amendment. Early adoption is permitted.

  • B. Standards, interpretations, and amendments to standards that have been published but are not yet effective and have not been early adopted by the Group, and which are expected or may have an impact on future periods:
    • Amendment to IAS 21 "The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates" (regarding lack of exchangeability):

The amendment defines that exchangeability exists when a currency can be exchanged into another currency and the entity can obtain the other currency through a market mechanism or exchange that creates enforceable rights and obligations within a reasonable timeframe (administrative delays do not impair exchangeability).

If the entity can obtain no more than an insignificant amount of the other currency at the measurement date for a specific purpose, exchangeability does not exist. Note that the assessment of whether exchangeability exists depends on the entity's ability to obtain the other currency, not on its intention or decision to do so.

The amendment further stipulates that when exchangeability does not exist, an entity must estimate the spot exchange rate at the measurement date to reflect the rate at which a typical exchange transaction would occur on that date between market participants under current economic conditions.

The amendment does not prescribe how the entity should estimate the spot exchange rate to meet this objective but notes that the entity may use an observable exchange rate without adjustments (e.g., the first subsequent exchange rate available) or another estimation technique that includes necessary adjustments to meet the objective.

Additionally, the amendment requires disclosure when exchangeability does not exist and the entity estimates the spot exchange rate. This disclosure should enable users of the financial statements to understand how the currency that lacks exchangeability affects, or is expected to affect, the entity's financial performance, financial position, and cash flows.

The amendment is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025. Early adoption is permitted, provided the entity discloses such adoption. Comparative information need not be restated upon adoption. Alternatively, if the translation relates to the entity's functional currency where exchangeability does not exist, upon initial adoption, the entity must translate monetary items affected by the foreign currency and non-monetary items measured at fair value in the foreign currency using an estimated spot exchange rate at that date, with the adjustments recognized in the opening balance of retained earnings.

If the translation relates to the entity's presentation currency where exchangeability does not exist, the entity must translate the affected assets and liabilities at the estimated spot exchange rate on that date. Additionally, if the entity's functional currency is hyperinflationary, the capital items affected must also be translated at the estimated spot exchange rate on that date, with any resulting adjustments recorded in the opening balance of the translation reserve in equity.

Note 3 – New Financial Reporting Standards, Published Interpretations, and Amendments to Standards (continued):

  • B. Standards, interpretations, and amendments to standards that have been published but are not yet effective and have not been early adopted by the Group, and which are expected or may have an impact on future periods (continued):
    • IFRS 18 "Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements":

On April 9, 2024, IFRS 18 was issued, replacing IAS 1 "Presentation of Financial Statements." The objective of the standard is to enhance how entities communicate information to users of their financial statements.

Key changes introduced by the standard focus on the following areas:

    1. Structure of the Statement of Profit or Loss introducing defined subtotals and categorization of items.
    1. Requirements to improve aggregation and disaggregation of information in financial statements and notes.
    1. Disclosure of management-defined performance measures (MPMs) which are non-GAAP performance metrics, in the notes to the financial statements.

Additionally, with the adoption of IFRS 18, amendments to other IFRS standards will come into effect, including amendments to IAS 7 "Statement of Cash Flows" aimed at improving comparability across entities. These changes mainly include: using operating profit as a uniform starting point for the indirect method in reporting cash flows from operating activities, and eliminating options for policy choice on the classification of interest and dividends. Accordingly, unless in specific cases, interest and dividends received will be included in investing cash flows, while interest and dividends paid will be included in financing cash flows.

The standard becomes effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027. It is to be applied retrospectively, with specific transition provisions. Early adoption is permitted but, according to the Israel Securities Authority, will be allowed only from periods beginning January 1, 2025 (Q1 2025 financial statements).

The Company is evaluating the impact of IFRS 18, including the amendments to other IFRS standards resulting from its adoption, on its financial statements.

Amendments to IFRS 9 "Financial Instruments" and IFRS 7 "Financial Instruments: Disclosures" (regarding classification and measurement of financial instruments and additional disclosure requirements):

Key amendments to IFRS 9:

  • A. Introduction of an option to derecognize a financial liability that has been settled through an electronic payment system before the settlement date, provided the following criteria are met:
    • The entity has no practical ability to withdraw, stop, or cancel the payment instruction;
    • The entity has no practical access to the cash used for the settlement due to the payment instruction;
    • Settlement risk related to the electronic payment system is not significant.

An entity electing this option must apply it to all liabilities settled using the same electronic payment system.

  • B. Addition of application guidance and examples to assess whether the contractual cash flows of a financial asset represent solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding for classification purposes of the financial asset.
  • C. Clarification that a financial asset has "non-recourse" features if the entity's ultimate right to receive cash flows is contractually limited to those generated by specified assets.
  • D. Clarification of the characteristics of contractually linked instruments (CLIs) that distinguish them from other arrangements.

Note 3 – New Financial Reporting Standards, Published Interpretations, and Amendments to Standards (continued):

B. Standards, interpretations, and amendments to standards that have been published but are not yet effective, and have not been early adopted by the Group, which are expected or may have an effect on future periods (continued):

Key amendments to IFRS 7:

  • A. Update of disclosure requirements regarding investments in equity instruments designated at fair value through other comprehensive income.
  • B. Addition of disclosure requirements regarding contractual terms that may change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows of financial instruments due to the occurrence (or non-occurrence) of a contingent event (e.g., achieving greenhouse gas emission reduction targets), which does not relate directly to changes in the basic loan agreement risks and costs (such as time value of money or credit risk).

The amendments will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026. Early adoption is permitted provided that either all amendments are applied simultaneously or only the amendments related to classification of financial assets are applied.

Entities must apply the amendments retrospectively. They are not required to restate prior periods upon initial application unless and only if it can be done without the use of hindsight.

Note 4 – Judgments in Applying Accounting Policy and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty

A. General:

In applying the Group's accounting policies, as described in Note 2 above, the Company's management is, in certain cases, required to exercise significant accounting judgment regarding estimates and assumptions related to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not necessarily readily available from other sources. It should be noted that actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and assumptions on which they are based are reviewed by management on an ongoing basis. Changes in accounting estimates are recognized only in the period of the change if the change affects only that period, or in the period of the change and future periods if the change affects both current and future periods.

B. Judgments in Applying Accounting Policies:

The following refers to critical judgments, excluding those involving estimates, made by management in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies, which have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the financial statements.

Revenue Recognition:

Transfer of Control in the Sale of Land:

Revenue recognition from the sale of rights in land involves judgment in determining whether the Company has transferred control of the land.

This determination is primarily based on the following parameters:

  • The Company does not guarantee the purchaser any return on investment or profit from the land.
  • The Company does not guarantee the purchaser the achievement of a change in zoning (i.e., the land is sold on an "AS IS" basis).
  • The Company can specifically identify the rights sold to each customer.

Note 4 – Judgments in Applying Accounting Policy and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty (continued)

B. Judgments in Applying Accounting Policies (continued):

Revenue Recognition (continued):

Transfer of Control in the Sale of Land (continued):

  • The purchaser cannot cancel the sales agreement and return the rights in the land to the Company after the fulfillment of the agreement's conditions precedent.
  • The Company does not control decision-making in the management entities after the transfer of control in the land.
  • The land purchasers have the ability to replace the Company in providing land enhancement services after the sale.

During the reporting period, the Group recognized revenue from the sale of land inventory in the amount of approximately NIS 12 million attributed to the sale of rights in land. (In 2023 – the Group recognized revenue from the sale of land inventory in the amount of approximately NIS 30 million attributed to the sale of rights in land.)

C. Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty:

(1) Impairment Testing of Land Inventory Balances:

Inventory is measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is determined based on the Company's assessment and, in some cases, external expert opinions, including the use of valuation reports that incorporate forecasts and estimates of expected proceeds from the sale of the inventory in the project and the development costs required to bring the inventory to a saleable state, net of financing (as detailed in Note 2L).

As of December 31, 2024, the carrying amount of short- and long-term land inventory balances totaled approximately NIS 4 billion at the end of the reporting period.

(2) Expected Costs Under Contract The Group estimates progress toward completion using an input-based method, measuring execution progress based on the estimated total costs required to fulfill the performance obligation, in order to determine the completion percentage used to calculate the amount of revenue to be recognized per period. The Group believes that this method most appropriately reflects the transfer of control to the customer.

(3) Fair Value of Investment Property:

As noted in Note 2J, the Group's investment property is presented at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in profit or loss as income or expenses.

To determine the fair value of investment property, the Company's management primarily relies on annual valuation reports prepared by independent, external real estate appraisers with the requisite knowledge, experience, and expertise. The Company's management generally determines fair value using standard valuation methods for real estate, such as discounted cash flow and comparable sales of similar assets or the Group's assets in nearby areas. When using the discounted cash flow method, the discount rate applied to the net expected cash flows from the asset has a significant impact on its fair value.

The fair value assessment considers, among other things and as applicable, the property's location and physical condition, the quality and fitness of tenants, lease terms, rental rates of comparable properties, necessary adjustments to current rents, and actual and projected occupancy levels. A change in one or more of these elements may significantly impact the fair value of the asset as estimated by Company management.

Note 4 – Judgments in Applying Accounting Policy and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty (continued):

(3) Fair Value of Investment Property (continued):

In determining the fair value of investment property under construction, considerations include, among others and as applicable, the project's construction period, rental income, additional costs required for construction through operation, the developer's profit margin, and the applicable discount rate. In assessing the fair value of land that the Company has not yet begun to develop, factors include location and comparable transactions of similar land (and sometimes the asset itself), with appropriate adjustments. Changes in the assumptions used in measuring investment property may lead to changes in fair value.

The Group strives to determine the most objective fair value possible; however, the fair value estimation process for investment property also includes subjective elements, partly based on the management's past experience and its understanding of expected market developments at the time the fair value estimate is made. Therefore, and as described above, the determination of fair value for the Group's investment property requires judgment. Changes in the assumptions used to determine fair value may significantly affect the Group's financial position and results of operations.

The carrying amount of investment property assets measured at fair value as of December 31, 2024, totaled approximately NIS 2,893 million (compared to approximately NIS 2,580 million in 2023), and for companies measured under the equity method, totaled approximately NIS 1,021 million (Company's share). In 2024, a net increase in the fair value of the Company's investment property was recorded in the amount of approximately NIS 27 million, and a net increase in the fair value of investment property of entities accounted for using the equity method was recorded in the amount of approximately NIS 110 million (Company's share).

For further details regarding the assumptions used by the Group in estimating the fair value of investment property, refer to Note 9C.

(4) Revaluation Model of Fixed Assets:

The Hotels are measured and presented in the Statement of Financial Position under the revaluation model. The revalued amounts represent the fair value of these assets at the date of the revaluation, determined based on market-based evidence through valuations performed by certified appraisers, less accumulated depreciation thereafter and less any accumulated impairment losses. In determining fair value, the Company takes into account, among other things and as applicable, discount rates for cash flows, estimates of projected net operating income (which are primarily affected by the expected annual growth rate in room revenues and occupancy rates, as well as the hotel's operating expense levels). The valuation also considers the estimated capital investments in the hotel. Any change in the value of one or more of these components and/or assumptions may materially affect the fair value of the hotel as estimated by the Company's management. These valuations are generally supported by a review of comparable transactions for indication purposes. Revaluations are carried out with sufficient regularity so that the carrying amount of the Hotels does not differ materially from the fair value that would have been determined at the end of each reporting period.

The Group strives to determine the most objective fair value possible; however, the process of estimating the fair value of the Hotel includes subjective elements, partially based on the Company management's understanding of expected developments in the hotel market at the time the fair value estimate is made. Accordingly, and in line with the above, determining the fair value of the Group's Hotels requires the exercise of judgment. Changes in the assumptions used in determining fair value may have a material impact on the Group's financial position and results of operations.

In light of the impact of the war, various restrictions were imposed in Russia regarding business operations with entities connected to the European Union, including, among others, restrictions on renewing agreements and transferring certain funds. The Company is working to minimize the effects of these restrictions on its activity in the Project, in order to enable continued execution of the agreement with the Buyer and continued withdrawal of cash surpluses accumulated in Morgal's accounts in Russia.

The amendment also sets forth the continuation of the relationship between the parties in the event the above approvals are not obtained.
  • (c) The process of implementing the New Preliminary Plan is expected to take approximately three years, and its outcome is uncertain. Its purpose is to obtain building permits and continue the sale of apartments in the Project.

    • (g) Joint Venture – Vertical City Ltd.:

On August 19, 2021, Vertical City Ltd.—owned (indirectly) 74% by the Company and 26% by B.S.R. Engineering & Development Ltd. (hereinafter: "BSR") (together: the "Project Company")—received official notice that it had won a tender managed by "Apartment for Rent – Rental Housing Governmental Company Ltd.," along with the Israel Land Authority and Ayalon Highways Ltd. (together: the "Tendering Entities"), for the purchase of direct leasehold rights (without a development agreement), capitalized for 98 years with an option for another 98 years, for a site known as the "Stock Exchange Triangle" in Ramat Gan. The plot covers approximately 9,590 sqm (sold portion only) and is designated for office towers, residential units, and commercial spaces totaling approximately 176,000 gross sqm above ground, including 400 long-term rental residential units, 350 student dormitories, and public buildings and institutions (together: the "Property") (it is noted that dormitory rights will not be transferred to any public entity). The Project Company committed to managing the leasing of the residential units and dormitories throughout the entire 20-year rental period.

For the leasehold rights, the purchasers paid the Sellers approximately NIS 937 million plus VAT (Company's share: approximately NIS 693 million), plus around NIS 11.5 million for development expenses to the Israel Land Authority. As part of the tender conditions, the Company provided a bank guarantee of approximately NIS 66 million (the "Guarantee"). According to the tender terms, the Guarantee was forfeited immediately upon confirmation of the Company's tender win.

The Project Company operates based on mutual understandings regulating, in principle, the relationship between the Company and BSR within the Project Company, whereby the Project Company is managed by a joint board of directors composed of representatives from the Company and BSR. All decisions of the board of directors are made jointly by directors from both parties. As part of these understandings, each of the Company and BSR undertook to provide shareholder loans to the Project Company in proportion to their respective holdings in order to finance the acquisition of the Property and the construction of the project thereon and/or any other payment and guarantees.

Accordingly, the Project Company is presented under the equity method in the line item for investment in investee companies accounted for using the equity method.

On November 11, 2021, the purchasers completed the payment of the full balance of the consideration. The balance was paid from equity and a bank loan provided to the Project Company (hereinafter also: the "Borrower"), from a local bank (hereinafter: the "Bank"), in the amount of approximately NIS 838 million, plus a bridge loan of NIS 121 million for the payment of VAT (hereinafter and respectively: the "Financing" or the "Loan" or the "VAT Bridge Loan," as applicable) under the following terms. As part of the loan agreement, the Bank also provided a guarantee facility required under the tender conditions in the amount of approximately NIS 95 million.

The main terms of the Loan are as follows:

  • (1) A credit facility of up to NIS 838 million was made available for use from November 15, 2021, until November 15, 2024. The facility decreases quarterly by NIS 4 million, to be repaid by the Borrower on a pro-rata basis.
  • (2) A VAT Bridge Loan of NIS 121 million was to be repaid within 90 days. This bridge loan has been fully repaid.
  • (3) The utilized credit facility bears a variable annual interest rate of Prime + 0.2% (from November 2024 – Prime + 0.4%).
  • (4) First-ranking fixed liens were registered in favor of the Bank to secure repayment of the Loan.

In November 2024, the maturity of the remaining balance of the Loan in the amount of approximately NIS 791 million was extended by an additional year until November 2025, at an interest rate of Prime + 0.4%.

  • (4) Additional Details (continued):
    • (g) Joint Venture – Vertical City Ltd. (continued):

The Company also agreed that the Loan would be subject to the following financial covenants:

  • (1) The equity attributable to the shareholders of the Company as a percentage of the consolidated balance sheet total shall not be less than 17%;
  • (2) The equity-to-balance ratio in the solo financial statements shall not be less than 30%;
  • (3) The equity-to-consolidated-balance ratio shall not be less than 22% at any time;
  • (4) The total equity in the solo financial statements shall not be less than NIS 475 million at any time.

As of December 31, 2024, the Company is in compliance with the above financial covenants. For further details, refer to Note 12c.

The purchasers intend to advance permits for the construction of residential buildings, student dormitories, and commercial and office spaces according to the existing zoning plan for the Property (hereinafter: the "Urban Building Plan"). As of the date of the Report, the purchasers have not yet received the permits required for construction of the project. The Company plans to develop and market the project as an income-generating asset. At the beginning of 2023, the Company began submitting purchase requests and signing sale agreements for the sale of portions of one of the office towers.

On February 16, 2022, a master plan for the Stock Exchange area (RG/1800) was approved for statutory validity. To the best of the Company's knowledge, the Municipality of Ramat Gan intends to promote a plan under local committee authority to add office space in accordance with the approved master plan.

On July 28, 2024, the local committee decided to recommend to the district committee the conditional deposit of a plan to increase building rights in the complex to a land construction ratio of 30, such that upon plan approval, total building rights in the complex would amount to approximately 354,000 sqm, of which 277,000 sqm would be for office and commercial use, 24,000 sqm for public buildings, and 53,000 sqm for residential rental and student dormitories. As a result, during 2024, the Project Company recorded appreciation of approximately NIS 187 million (Company's share: approximately NIS 105 million). The appreciation was primarily due to the rights approved for deposit, net of development levies, betterment levies, and appropriate time and risk coefficients, in accordance with the external appraiser's valuation. (In 2023, the Project Company recorded an impairment of approximately NIS 54 million, of which the Company's share was approximately NIS 40 million, mainly due to capitalized financing costs, a decrease in the value component of rental housing, and an increase in construction costs, partially offset by an increase in the value per square meter of office space).

On April 18, 2024, the Company, BSR, and the Project Company entered into an agreement with Clal Insurance Company Ltd. and Clal Pension and Provident Ltd. (together: "Clal"), whereby Clal will invest approximately NIS 160 million in consideration for an allotment of shares (including a shareholder loan) (hereinafter: the "Consideration"), which will constitute approximately 24.5% of the issued and paid-up share capital of the Project Company, free and clear, to be paid to the Project Company upon completion and subject to the fulfillment of the following main conditions precedent:

  • (1) Receipt of the Bank's approval (which provided the land acquisition financing) for entering into the agreement and the allotment of shares to Clal;
  • (2) Receipt of approval from the Competition Authority for entering into the agreement.

Note 8 – Investments and Loans in Held Companies, Net (continued):

B. Joint Arrangements (continued):

  • (4) Additional Details (continued):
    • (g) Joint Venture – Vertical City Ltd. (continued):

On June 25, 2024, the conditions precedent to the Vertical transaction were fulfilled, and accordingly, 24.5% of the issued and paid-up share capital of the Project Company was allotted to Clal. On June 27, 2024, the full Consideration was received.

The transaction was carried out at a valuation similar to the carrying amount of the land in the books of the associate; therefore, it had no impact on the Company's financial statements. Upon completion of the transaction, the Company holds approximately 55.9% of the issued and paid-up share capital and voting rights in the Project Company.

The Project Company signed memoranda of understanding for an urban renewal ("evacuation and reconstruction") transaction with the owners of the properties on 1–3 Ta'as Street in Ramat Gan, which borders the area of the "Vertical" project. These memoranda will serve as a basis for combination agreements expected to be signed between the parties, whereby the owners will vacate the parcel and transfer it to the Project Company, which will construct the "Vertical" project on the parcel (and on additional land). In exchange for vacating the parcel, the owners will receive built-up space in the project, as detailed in the memoranda. During the Report Period, a combination agreement was signed with the rights holders at 1 Ta'as Street.

In light of significant sales agreements signed during 2023 (22%), the Company decided that 75,000 sqm of office construction rights, out of the total investment property, would be reclassified as real estate inventory, effective October 2023, replacing their previous classification as investment property since the date of land acquisition.

As of the end of 2024, the Company had sold approximately 25,000 sqm of office space for total consideration of approximately NIS 796 million including VAT.

In accordance with the criteria for inclusion of an associate, the Company consolidates the financial statements of Vertical City Ltd. in these financial statements.

For further details regarding the signing of a contract with a contractor for excavation, shoring, and foundation work, refer to Note 33c.

(h) Joint Venture – A.K.A. Beit Mars Ltd.:

On September 2, 2021, A.K.A. Beit Mars Ltd. (hereinafter: the "Project Company" or the "Purchaser"), which as of December 31, 2024 is held by the Company (final indirect holding of 38.4%), Yossi Avrahami Civil Engineering Works Ltd. (24%), Almogim Holdings Ltd. (16%), and Alma Fortress 1 Initiatives 2023 (20%), respectively (together: the "Partners"), won a tender to purchase a plot of approximately 12.4 dunams located at 156, 158, and 160 Herzl Street in Tel Aviv, in its "As-Is" condition, from the rights holders, which include, among others, Discount Bank Ltd. and Reality Fund (hereinafter: the "Sellers" and the "Property," respectively), for total consideration of approximately NIS 685 million plus lawful VAT and linkage differentials (hereinafter: the "Consideration").

Under the sale agreement, the Purchaser acquired all of the Sellers' rights and obligations in the Property, including all built structures, as well as rights and obligations towards existing tenants under third-party lease agreements and under a lease agreement with the Israel Electric Corporation (hereinafter: the "Sale Asset").

As part of the sale agreement, the Purchaser undertook to release the Sellers from an undertaking to the Tel Aviv Municipality and to sign a new undertaking with the Municipality in lieu of the Sellers, under which the Purchaser would bear the costs of vacating occupants on Parcel 7 of the Property and provide a suitable guarantee in favor of the Municipality, the amount of which is considered immaterial by the Partners.

(4) Additional Details (continued):

(h) Joint Venture – A.K.A. Beit Mars Ltd. (continued):

A total of approximately NIS 240 million, plus VAT and lawful linkage differentials, was paid in equity at the time of signing the sale agreements. The Company's share of the first payment amounted to approximately NIS 120 million, plus VAT and linkage differentials, paid from its own sources.

On February 28, 2022 (the "Completion Date"), the Purchaser completed the full payment of the Consideration. The purchase was financed with a bank loan totaling NIS 550 million (Company's share: NIS 275 million), and the remainder from the Company's own resources on a pro rata basis to its holding.

The Company provided unlimited guarantees to the financing banks for the repayment of the loan in accordance with its proportional holding in the Project Company (50%).

On March 16, 2023, Discount Bank, which was the main tenant, notified of termination of the lease and vacated the premises effective June 30, 2023. Accordingly, the property company leased and is continuing to lease the property or parts of it to third parties.

An agreement was signed among the Partners regulating the management and decision-making in the Project Company. Under the agreement, unanimous consent of the Project Company's board of directors is required for material decisions. Accordingly, the Project Company is presented as a joint arrangement and accounted for under the equity method in the line item "Investment in Associates."

On August 24, 2023, the Project Company and its shareholders entered into an allotment agreement with a third party, under which shares representing 20% of the issued and paid-up share capital of the Project Company were allotted to the partner, based on a property valuation of approximately NIS 770 million. The transaction was completed on February 25, 2024. As a result, the Company's holding in the project was reduced to approximately 38% on a final indirect basis.

The Partners intend to develop the site as a residential and commercial project as described above, subject to the approval of a detailed plan under which building permits may be issued (above and hereinafter: the "Project"). It should also be noted that the developers intend to sell the residential portions by constructing and marketing residential units. On February 19, 2025, after the reporting date, the City Engineer Forum was held, in which a recommendation was made to promote a plan under the authority of the local committee for approximately 61,000 sqm designated for residential, employment, and commercial use.

In accordance with the Group's accounting policy, the asset is presented under inventory in the Project Company.

(1) Bonds – Series F:

On May 30, 2019, following a public and institutional tender, the Company raised a total of NIS 196,587,000 nominal value of bonds (Series F) at an annual interest rate of 4.7%, with an effective annual interest rate of 5.13%.

The NIS 196,587,000 nominal value of bonds (Series F), registered by name, with a nominal value of NIS 1 each (hereinafter: the "Bonds (Series F)"), were offered to the public at their nominal value and will be repaid (principal) in 5 annual installments on May 31 of each of the years 2021 through 2025, such that the first and second payments will each constitute 7.5% of the total nominal value of the Bonds (Series F), the third payment will constitute 30%, the fourth payment will constitute 45%, and the final payment will constitute 10%. The first principal payment was made on May 31, 2021, and the final payment will be made on May 31, 2025.

On May 24, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors approved a plan to purchase up to NIS 50 million of the Company's Bonds (Series F) by the subsidiary for a period of up to one year, starting on May 24, 2023. The Board's rationale for the repurchase plan was primarily the trading price of the Company's Bonds (Series F) (hereinafter: the "Bonds") at the time of the decision, which was considered attractive and a sound business opportunity for the Company.

Purchases, if made, will be subject to the Company's cash flow, liquidity, and the goal of reducing its leverage, as well as the generation of capital gains for the Company resulting from the difference between the liability value of the Bonds and the actual purchase cost. The repurchase of the Bonds under this plan is not expected to impair the Company's ability to meet its current and future obligations upon their due date.

As of December 31, 2024, the outstanding carrying amount of the Bonds is approximately NIS 19.6 million.

The Company has committed to comply with the following financial covenants:

  • The equity-to-balance-sheet ratio (solo) shall not fall below 35%.
  • The Company's equity shall not fall below NIS 350 million.

Additionally, the Company has committed not to distribute dividends if as a result of such distribution: The Company's equity falls below NIS 400 million, or the Company's solo equity ratio falls below 42.5%, based on the most recent separate (solo) quarterly or annual financial statements published prior to the decision to distribute. It was further established that the distribution amount shall not exceed 50% of the net profit for the period (excluding gains/losses from asset revaluation) as per the Company's most recent audited annual or quarterly solo financial statements, as applicable.

Non-compliance with the above financial covenants for two consecutive quarters shall constitute grounds for declaring the remaining balance of the Bonds immediately payable.

In addition, the Company committed that for as long as the Bonds (Series F) are in circulation (i.e., not fully repaid or redeemed by any means, including self-purchase and/or early redemption), it will not create a floating charge over all its assets in favor of any third party to secure any debt or obligation, without prior approval of the Bondholders (Series F) by special resolution.

The trust deed includes a tiered mechanism for adjusting the bond interest rate due to non-compliance with financial covenants, specifically if the equity-to-balance-sheet ratio (solo) falls below 40% or if the equity falls below NIS 375 million.

The financial covenants are tested quarterly. As of the date of the financial statements, the Company is in compliance with the above financial covenants.

As of December 31, 2024, approximately NIS 0.05 million nominal value of Bonds was repurchased for a total consideration of approximately NIS 0.05 million.

The consideration included the land cost of approximately NIS 135 million and permit fees to the Israel Land Authority.

The Limited Partnership is working to rezone the land (currently designated for industry and employment) to a mixed-use area including residential and commercial (retail and office) use.

Planning Procedures for the Project:

The plan will allow the construction of a project with a total built-up area of approximately 206 thousand square meters above underground levels of approximately 90 thousand square meters. According to the plan, areas may be built for commercial and employment use totaling approximately 150 thousand square meters across four towers, each up to 20 stories, interconnected at the lower levels where the commercial spaces will be located. Additionally, ten residential buildings of nine stories each will be constructed, containing 600 small residential units (of which 120 will be designated as rental apartments). Furthermore, space will be allocated for the construction of a school and other public areas for local residents, as well as an area of approximately 7.5 dunams for a transportation terminal and urban storage uses.

In November 2022, the Tel Aviv District Planning and Building Committee decided to approve the deposit, with conditions, of the Morasha Employment Zone Plan in Ramat HaSharon, for the development of a complex combining residential, commercial, employment, and public buildings (hereinafter: the "Plan").

The Plan will enable the construction of a project with a total above-ground area of approximately 206 thousand square meters, above basements with an area of approximately 90 thousand square meters. Pursuant to the Plan, the construction of areas for commercial and employment uses will be permitted, in a scope of approximately 150 thousand square meters, in four towers of up to 20 stories each, which will be connected at the lower floors where the commercial uses will be allocated. In addition, ten residential buildings of nine stories will be constructed, containing 600 small residential units (of which 120 will be allocated for rental apartments). Pursuant to the Plan, an area will be designated for the establishment of a school, additional public areas for local residents, and an area of approximately 7.5 dunams for a transportation terminal and urban storage uses.

On February 29, 2024, the District Committee resolved to approve the Plan, in respect of which an appeal was filed by the Ramat HaSharon Municipality. A hearing on the appeal was held in July 2024. The Company is awaiting a decision regarding the appeal.

Marketing of Residential Rights in the Project:

Based on a preliminary inquiry submitted by the Company in 2017 and discussions held with the staff of the Israel Securities Authority, the Company did not recognize revenue from the sale of residential rights in prior reporting periods, as it was not yet possible to specifically identify the rights in connection with each customer agreement.

Note 26 – Financial Instruments (continued)

H. Credit Risk:

The Group has no material concentrations of significant credit risk in its operations in Israel, as detailed below:

Regarding the Group's revenues from real estate and property sales, the Company occasionally grants payment terms to customers and is thus exposed to credit risk. The Company regularly evaluates customer credit ratings and includes specific provisions for doubtful debts in the financial statements where necessary. In most cases, it is agreed by the parties in the sale agreements that the legal title to the property does not transfer before full payment is received under the agreement. Management believes that credit risk related to such sale receivables is not significant.

Regarding the Group's revenues from hotel customers, the Hotel Company reviews customer credit quality. Specific risk limits are set for each customer, including the collateral to be received. In addition, most of the Company's sales are broadly diversified across many customers, and as such, the Company's customer balance as of December 31, 2024 does not represent a significant concentration of credit risk.

Regarding revenues from management fees of purchasing groups – payments are made by the purchasers to the Group companies, and group members must meet credit standards set by the bank financing the project to obtain significant bank financing. Credit facility agreements for such purchasing groups typically include payment of the applicable management fees to the Group.

The Group also has no significant concentrations of credit risk abroad.

Due to the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine (refer to details in Note 8B(4)2(1)) and the mutual sanctions in effect, there are significant restrictions on the transfer of funds out of Russia. It is noted that as of the date of this Report, the Company does not hold material cash balances in Russia. Refer also to Note 8B(4)D regarding fund withdrawals.

Management is unable to estimate when, or if, these sanctions will be lifted.

Note 26 – Financial Instruments (continued):

I. Liquidity Risk:

The Group's objective is to maintain the existing ratio between ongoing financing and the flexibility provided by the use of overdrafts and short-term bank credit. The Company also regularly reviews sources of financing to support its ongoing operations. The primary sources for repayment of the Group's financial liabilities are proceeds from the sale of real estate inventory and revenues from management and marketing fees.

The table below presents the maturity dates of the Group's financial liabilities based on contractual terms (principal and interest payable) at undiscounted amounts:

(*) The balance as of December 31, 2024 includes loans for the financing of real estate acquisitions (inventory or investment property), in the amount of NIS 2,340 million, which are due for repayment during 2025. The Company estimates that it will be able to extend the terms of the financing agreements for land acquisitions and/or enter into construction financing agreements with the banking institutions prior to the contractual repayment dates, as of the date of the Report.

Note 27 – Fair Value

A. Disclosure of Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value in the Statement of Financial Position:

For the purpose of measuring the fair value of assets or liabilities, the Group classifies them according to a hierarchy that includes the following three levels:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The classification of assets or liabilities measured at fair value is based on the lowest level of significant use for measuring the fair value of the entire asset or liability.

Below is a breakdown of the Group's assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the Company's statement of financial position as of December 31, 2024, according to their respective levels of measurement:

For investment property, the fair value was determined based on valuations performed by independent appraisers who possess recognized professional qualifications and extensive experience regarding the location and type of property being appraised.

Description of the Valuation Processes Used to Determine Fair Value:

The individual responsible within the Company for overseeing the fair value valuation process of items classified as Level 3 is the Company's CFO. The CFO reports the fair value findings to the Company's management, which then reviews, together with the Company's financial reporting committee, the appropriateness of the data and valuation methodology used in determining fair value.

The Company's pricing model is reviewed annually and calibrated as necessary to estimate fair value as accurately as possible, in the Company's opinion.

D. Fair Value of Items Not Measured at Fair Value in the Statement of Financial Position:

Except as detailed in the table below, the Group believes that the carrying amounts of the financial assets and liabilities presented at amortized cost in the financial statements approximate their fair value:

(1) The change in carrying amount as well as in the fair value of bonds is due to principal repayments and does not result from significant changes in the Company's credit risk during the reporting period.

Note 28 – Segment Reporting

A. General:

Operating segments are identified based on internal reporting regarding the components of the Group, which is regularly reviewed by the Group's Chief Operating Decision Maker for the purpose of resource allocation and assessment of segment performance. The reporting system provided to the Group's CODM for these purposes is based on geographic areas, the method of project marketing, as well as the manner of revenue and operating profit generation from the project. For projects managed in held companies in which the Company is a partner and which are presented using the equity method, data is reviewed based on the Company's proportional share in the project. General and administrative expenses are not attributed to the Company's segments and therefore appear under unallocated expenses. The segment of investment property in Israel includes changes in fair value of investment property.

The activity of initiating and managing purchasing groups in Israel previously constituted a reportable segment. As of the end of 2021, this segment no longer constitutes a reportable segment and accordingly, its data is presented under "Other."

The following are the Company's operating segments in accordance with IFRS 8:

Segment A -
Project construction in
Israel:
Segment B -
Real estate in Israel:
Generates its revenue from projects in Israel where the Group
develops and sells commercial spaces and/or offices and/or
apartments under the Sale Law Guarantee, as well as from the
sale of land at opportunistic prices.
Generates its revenue from the Company's activities in
selling and/or marketing land in Israel.
Segment C -
Investment property
in
Israel:

leasing and/or holding land in Israel designated for
development for leasing purposes.
Segment D -

According to the management agreements, Rosen and Touchmair will serve as the CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company, at a minimum employment scope of 95% and 90%, respectively.

On February 22, 2023, the members of the Remuneration Committee and the Board of Directors of the Company, and on March 2, 2023, the General Meeting of Shareholders of the Company, approved the continuation of the engagement of the Company in management agreements with a company wholly owned and controlled by Mr. Asaf Touchmair and with a company wholly owned and controlled by Mr. Barak Rosen, the controlling shareholders of the Company and serving as the Chairman of the Board and CEO of the Company, respectively (above and hereinafter – "Touchmair," "Rosen," "the Management Agreements," "Touchmair's Company," and "Rosen's Company," respectively), for the provision of CEO services and Chairman services to the Company through Touchmair and Rosen only, respectively (hereinafter – "CEO Services" and "Chairman Services," respectively). The Management Agreements include immaterial changes compared to the terms of office and employment as previously approved by the General Meeting in 2020, and shall apply as of January 1, 2023. According to the Management Agreements, Rosen and Touchmair will serve as CEO and Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company at a minimum employment scope of 95% and 90%, respectively.

Below are the terms of office determined in the engagements with the companies owned by Touchmair and Rosen, respectively:

  • (b) Fixed Compensation In consideration for the provision of management services by Barak Rosen, the private company under his ownership shall be entitled to fixed compensation from January 1, 2023, through the end of the agreement period on December 31, 2025, in the amount of approximately NIS 219 thousand per month (similar to the compensation in effect prior to that date).

Note 29 – Transactions with Interested and Related Parties (continued):

A. Balances with Interested and Related Parties (continued):

  • (2) Management Agreements (continued):
    • (c) Variable Compensation In addition to the monthly compensation mentioned above, each of Touchmair's and Rosen's private companies shall be entitled to an annual bonus subject to the cumulative threshold targets detailed below (hereinafter – the "Threshold Targets"):
      • 1) Profit Test Each of Touchmair's and Rosen's private companies shall be entitled to the variable compensation only if the Company presents in its financial statements for the relevant compensation year a net profit attributable to the shareholders of the Company (excluding noncontrolling interests), based on the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company.
      • 2) Repayment Test During the relevant calendar year, the Company must fully meet the repayment conditions of principal, interest, and linkage differentials with respect to bonds issued and loans received from banking institutions, excluding debt specifically related to new and/or existing projects (Non-Recourse).
    • (d) Minimum Compliance Threshold The variable compensation is conditional upon achieving a minimum threshold of profit before tax, as defined below, in the amount of NIS 65 million. "Profit before Tax" for the purposes of this section means the Company's profit for the relevant year before income taxes according to the (consolidated) financial statements for that year, before bonuses to controlling shareholders, and net of the non-controlling interest's share in the profit of consolidated companies before tax (or added in case of losses before tax), neutralizing fair value gains/losses to shareholders of the Company, including one-time gains/losses not in the ordinary course of business, provided the result is positive. From the equity-accounted investees' results, tax income/expenses shall be neutralized, as well as revaluation gains/losses. If the result is negative, no bonus shall be paid and such negative result will be taken into account for the bonus calculation in the following year(s). If the result is positive, the surplus amount will be carried forward to subsequent years.
    • (e) Annual Bonus Rate To the extent the Threshold Targets and the minimum profit before tax threshold are met, Touchmair's and Rosen's private companies shall be entitled, respectively, to a progressive rate of the profit before tax (hereinafter – the "Annual Bonus"). The calculation shall be performed progressively.

(3) Lease Agreement and Participation in Company Expenses:

Since 2017, the Company annually engages the services of an independent external consultant to propose an appropriate mechanism for charging the controlling shareholders and their privately held companies for rent, employee-related costs, and participation in fixed expenses directly related to office space (e.g., municipal taxes, office maintenance, cleaning expenses, etc.). The consultant's assessment is primarily based on the ratio of working hours attributed to the private company's employees to the total working hours of all employees, and the ratio of office space allocated to the private company's employees in rooms to the total number of rooms in the office.

  • (4) On February 10, 2019, the Audit Committee members approved, as a non-extraordinary transaction, the Company's engagement with a company owned and controlled by Messrs. Asaf Touchmair and Barak Rosen in a lease agreement, whereby the controlling shareholders would lease from the Company an area of 130 square meters on the 33rd floor of the Midtown office tower. The rent was set at NIS 103 per square meter, i.e., approximately NIS 13.4 thousand per month. The terms of the lease agreement are more favorable than those of a third-party tenant leasing the remaining space on the same floor (except for the monthly rent), as the Company typically leases real estate as part of its regular business. The rent is considered at market terms based on comparable transactions in the Midtown project and does not materially affect the Company's assets, profitability, or liabilities.
  • (5) On July 22, 2018, the Company's Audit Committee and Board of Directors approved the Company's engagement with a project company (held indirectly by Mr. Barak Rosen, one of the controlling shareholders and serving as CEO and Director of the Company; hereinafter – "Rosen" and the "Project Company," respectively) in a service agreement for the exclusive marketing of units in a project in London (hereinafter – the "London Project"), fully owned (100%) by the Project Company. Compensation includes a 3% marketing commission on the total sales, plus VAT (hereinafter – the "Marketing Commission" and the "Engagement," respectively). Sales commissions to the Company's external marketers will be paid from the Marketing Commission, and are estimated to average approximately 1% of total sales plus VAT. It should also be noted that as of the date of this Report, Rosen has transferred 50% of his rights in the Project Company to Asaf Touchmair, another controlling shareholder and Chairman of the Company.

The Engagement was approved by the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors pursuant to Article 1(5) of the Companies Regulations (Reliefs in Transactions with Interested Parties), 5760-2000 (hereinafter – the "Relief Regulations") on the grounds that marketing real estate units is in the ordinary course of business of the Company, and that the Marketing Commission is at market terms and to the benefit of the Company.

(6) On February 25, 2020, the Audit Committee members approved the Company's engagement with a Project Company (indirectly) held 75% by Messrs. Asaf Touchmair and Barak Rosen (hereinafter – the "Project Company") in a service agreement for the exclusive marketing of land parcels in Rishon LeZion (hereinafter – the "Land"), fully owned (100%) by the Project Company, in return for a 3% commission on each sale, plus VAT.

This Engagement was approved by the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors pursuant to Article 1(5) of the Relief Regulations on the grounds that real estate marketing is in the ordinary course of the Company's business and the Marketing Commission is at market terms and to the benefit of the Company.

As of the date of this Report, the Company recognized revenues in 2024 from the marketing of the project in the amount of approximately NIS 0 million (compared to approximately NIS 0.1 million in 2023).

Note 31 – "Iron Swords" War

On October 7, 2023, the "Iron Swords" war (hereinafter – the "War") broke out in Israel following a coordinated attack by the Hamas terrorist organization, resulting in the murder of approximately 1,400 people, the injury of thousands, and the abduction of approximately 240 people. Simultaneously, security escalations occurred along Israel's northern border with the Hezbollah terrorist organization, as well as in other arenas. Consequently, Israel initiated a wide-scale call-up of reserve personnel, declared a special situation on the home front, and evacuated many communities both in the Gaza envelope and along the northern border.

The immediate impacts of the War on the Israeli economy included, among others: the temporary closure and/or disruption of many businesses, limitations on civilian movement, restrictions on gatherings (depending on proximity to conflict zones), a reduction in school hours, labor shortages (due to the departure of foreign workers, limitations on Palestinian workers entering Israel, and the mass call-up of reservists), the suspension of flights to Israel by most international airlines, and additional ramifications, as well as an overall depressed public sentiment. These circumstances led to a decrease in economic activity and significant volatility in the financial markets and the exchange rate of the shekel against foreign currencies, resulting from increased risk levels and uncertainty. These developments were also reflected in the credit rating of Israel: In October 2023, shortly after the outbreak of the War, rating agencies Moody's and Fitch announced that Israel's credit rating was under review for downgrade. S&P also downgraded Israel's credit outlook from stable to negative, though it left the rating unchanged. In February 2024, Moody's downgraded Israel's credit rating by one notch to A2, and on September 27, 2024, it downgraded the rating a second time, by two notches, to Baa1.

Immediate Impacts of the War:

With respect to the Company's development projects in execution, after a two-week period from the start of the War during which the Company's construction sites were shut down, all of the Company's sites resumed operations (subject to the restrictions imposed by the Home Front Command and local authorities), and as of the date of this Report, all of the Company's sites are operating at full capacity. It is clarified that sites which did not operate at full capacity during this period may lead to increased financing costs and construction cost inflation (correspondingly reducing project surpluses), as well as increased expenses for rental payments to owners of existing residential units in urban renewal projects. However, as of the date of this Report, this has not had a material impact on the progress of the Company's projects.

Regarding the Company's planned projects (including land reserves), during the first week of the War, planning bodies ceased all operations. However, within a few days, they resumed operations almost fully, and therefore, this had no material impact on the Company's activities.

As for marketing aspects, immediately following the outbreak of the War, the residential real estate market experienced a significant slowdown in demand for purchasing apartments (as the War exacerbated the existing uncertainty in the real estate market, mainly due to interest rate increases during the past year). However, beginning in December 2023, demand for apartments began to increase. It is noted that despite the slowdown, the Company marketed hundreds of apartments in the Rainbow and Midtown Jerusalem projects during the period.

As of the date of this Report, the impact of the War on the Company's operating results exists but is not material and is expected to remain so in the immediate term, provided the War does not escalate further. This assessment is based on the Company's financial strength, business condition, cash flows, and the various stages of its projects.

Nevertheless, the Iron Swords War has led to a shortage of skilled labor at construction sites and to an increase in the cost of raw materials required for construction, which may increase execution costs in projects where a construction contract has not yet been signed or in projects where the construction contract is linked to the Construction Input Index. This may also result in extended construction timelines and delays in project completions. In addition, the War has led to increased inflation, sustaining a high-interest-rate environment. Due to the rise in construction costs, the Company updated the execution costs of projects in marketing that had not yet entered into an agreement with a contractor. On the other hand, revenue estimates for these projects were also updated due to increased sale prices, based on actual apartment sales in the various projects. Therefore, despite the aforementioned cost increases, the expected impact on gross profit is not material.

Note 31 – "Iron Swords" War (continued):

With respect to the Company's income-producing properties, beginning in early 2024, as business activity increased, most tenants resumed paying rent in full without relief (such as payment deferrals), which had been granted on a caseby-case basis in 2023. The Company currently does not expect a significant impact on its revenues as a result, and occupancy rates in its income-producing properties appear to remain stable.

Regarding the Company's hotel operations – as of December 31, 2024, and the date of this Report, the War has not had a material impact on the Company's 2024 financial results, given that the Company's hotels were operating at high occupancy rates due to the accommodation of evacuees from the south and north, in accordance with necessity and governmental orders. The Company adjusted its expenses (including placing employees on unpaid leave and vacation as needed) to match the activity level during this period. However, following the date of the Report, most evacuees have left the Company's hotels, and as of the date of this Report, the Company is working to return the hotels to full operations and is awaiting updates regarding government participation in the renovation costs of hotels that hosted evacuees. It is likely that this will be reflected in the hotel company's financial statements for the first quarter of 2025. Additionally, it should be noted that the prolongation and/or intensification of the Iron Swords War and its impact on the tourism sector in general (both domestic and incoming tourism) may affect demand for the Company's hotels and impact the performance of the Company's hotel operations in the upcoming quarters, the extent of which cannot currently be assessed.

Potential Impacts of Prolongation or Escalation of the War:

A further prolongation of the fighting and/or an expansion of the war on additional fronts at high intensity may materially affect the Company's operations, as they may lead to: (1) the cancellation/reduction of projects and a delay in the pace of initiation processes and entry into new projects; (2) a delay in planning, permitting, and execution processes of the projects in a manner that may lead to delays in the completion of the projects and their delivery to buyers; (3) a decline in the financial resilience of key subcontractors and suppliers; (4) an increase in construction costs; (5) a material decline in demand for residential units/office spaces/commercial areas marketed by the Company (due to a harm to the economic ability of potential buyers/tenants, general low morale, and the uncertainty involved in a time of war); (6) a decline in sale/rental prices and/or tenants leaving; (7) a limitation on the scope of bank credit to the real estate sector, raising of minimum requirements for financing (including requirements for increasing the equity capital provided by the Company in the projects), tightening of financing terms, and delays in the dates for provision of the financing required by the Company for its operations (as this is also conditioned, among other things, on the pace of marketing of the apartments/offices/renting of the areas in the projects); (8) an oversupply of areas for rent; (9) non-fulfillment by buyers/tenants of their obligations toward the Company; (10) an impact on domestic tourism and inbound tourism in a manner that will affect occupancy in the hotels managed by the Company and, accordingly, the revenue and profitability of this sector.
