OPC's revenue increased by \$66 million in Q3 2023 as compared to Q3 2022. Excluding the impact of translating OPC's revenue from NIS to USD4 , OPC's revenue increased by \$83 million in Q3 2023 as compared to Q3 2022. Set forth below is a discussion of significant changes in revenue between Q3 2023 and Q3 2022.

OPC's revenue from the sale of electricity to private customers is derived from electricity sold at the generation component tariffs, as published by the Israeli Electricity Authority ("EA"), with some discount. Accordingly, changes in the generation component tariffs generally affect the prices paid under Power Purchase Agreements by customers of OPC-Rotem and OPC-Hadera. The weighted-average generation component tariff in Q3 2023 was NIS 0.3039 per KW hour, which is approximately 1% higher than the weighted-average generation component tariff in Q3 2022 of NIS 0.3015 per KW hour.

3 Non-IFRS measure. See Appendix C for a definition of OPC's Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of these measures to net profit. 4 Comparing Q3 2023 and Q3 2022 using the average exchange rate of \$0.2745/NIS.

Excluding the impact of translating OPC's revenue from NIS to USD, such revenues increased by \$48 million primarily as a result of (i) an increase of \$17 million from an increase in the generation component tariff, (ii) an increase of \$17 million from an increase in customer consumption and (iii) an increase of \$12 million from the consolidation of results of the Gat Power Plant which was consolidated starting in Q2 2023;
  • Revenue from private customers in respect of infrastructure services Increased by \$10 million in Q3 2023 as compared to Q3 2022. Excluding the impact of translating OPC's revenue from NIS to USD, such revenues increased by \$12 million, primarily as a result of (i) an increase of \$6 million from an increase in the infrastructure tariff, (ii) an increase of \$3 million from an increase in customer consumption and (iii) an increase of \$3 million from the consolidation of results of the Gat Power Plant beginning in Q2 2023;
  • Revenue from sale of energy to the System Operator and to other suppliers Increased by \$11 million in Q3 2023 as compared to Q3 2022.

  • Natural gas and diesel oil consumption in Israel – Increased by \$11 million in Q3 2023 as compared to Q3 2022. Excluding the impact of translating these costs from NIS to USD, such costs increased by \$15 million primarily due to an increase of \$18 million from the consolidation of results of the Gat Power Plant in Q3 2023 and the commencement of commercial operations of Tzomet Power Plant, which took place in June 2023, partially offset by a decrease in gas expenses of \$5 million as a result of the commencement of delivery of gas from Energean from Q2 2023;

Business and other Developments

Impact of War in Israel

On October 7, 2023, war broke out in Israel as a result of a deadly attack by the Hamas terrorist organization on communities skirting the Gaza Strip in the southern part of Israel. The war has led to consequences and restrictions with respect to the Israeli economy, including a curtailment of business activities, a significant call-up of military reserves, limitations on gatherings in places of work and public areas, restrictions on carrying on the operation of schools in the educational system, and others.

The impacts of the war include considerable uncertainty regarding its ramifications with respect to macro-economic factors in Israel as well as on the State of Israel's financial position, including possible unfavorable changes to the credit rating of Israel and Israeli financial institutions, sharp fluctuations in the currency exchange rates, particularly a strengthening of the USD to NIS exchange rate, and instability in the Israeli capital markets (including wider trading fluctuations, falling security prices, liquidity issues and limited accessibility). The potential impacts of the war on OPC's business activities in Israel include potential interruptions to activity of OPC's power plants, including risks relating to physical damage to plants as a result of the war (and the risk that insurance coverage may not be sufficient) and the risk of cyberattacks; potential interruptions of supply of natural gas to OPC's power plants, including the risk of or a shortage or interruption in the supply of gas which could have a significant negative impact on OPC's natural gas costs; the potential impact on demand for electricity in general and by OPC's customers in particular; and the potential impact of the proposed decision of the EA regarding coverage of Israel Electric Company Ltd's war expenses.

For more information on the impact of the war on OPC, see Section 3.1 of Exhibit 99.1 of Kenon's Form 6-K submitted to the SEC on November 16, 2023.

Commercial Operations of Three Rivers

In Q3 2023, approval was received for commercial operation of the Three Rivers power plant, in which CPV Group has a 10% interest.

The total construction cost of the project amounted to approximately \$1.3 billion.

Completion of Maple Hill

The construction of the Maple Hill solar project, in which CPV Group has a 100% interest and with a capacity of 126 megawatts, was completed. The total construction cost of the project amounted to approximately \$180 million.

As at September 30, 2023, a total of approximately \$59 million had been drawn by the CPV Group, with an additional drawdown of approximately \$75 million subsequent to this date.

Pursuant to Article 49 of the ICSID Convention, the parties have submitted requests seeking rectification of and/or supplementation to the Award relating to the Tribunal's award of interest and costs. These requests do not impact the Tribunal's principal award of damages.

Pursuant to the ICSID Convention, Peru has 120 days from the date of any decision rendered in connection with the parties' Article 49 requests to file an application to annul the Award on the limited grounds established by the ICSID Convention.

7 Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure. See Exhibit 99.2 of Kenon's Form 6-K dated November 29, 2023 for the definition of ZIM's Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation to its respective net (loss)/profit for the applicable period.

As previously disclosed in Kenon's Form 20-F, Kenon and IC Power have previously entered in an agreement with a capital provider to provide capital for expenses in relation to the pursuit of these arbitration claims and other costs, which to date has equaled \$12 million, in exchange for approximately 55% of the net claim proceeds (Kenon's share of the award would be approximately \$45 million, not including its share of the award for fees and costs and pre- and post-award interest), subject to the terms of this agreement.

The award is subject to tax.

Appendix C

Definition of OPC's Adjusted EBITDA and non-IFRS reconciliation

This press release, including the financial tables, presents OPC's Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-IFRS financial measure.

OPC's EBITDA is defined for each period as net profit/(loss) before depreciation and amortization, financing expenses, net, and income tax expense. OPC's Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net profit/(loss) before depreciation and amortization, financing expenses, net, share of depreciation and amortization and financing expenses, net, income tax expense, share of changes in fair value of derivative financial instruments, changes in net expenses, not in the ordinary course of business and/or of a non-recurring nature and other income/(expenses). EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not recognized under IFRS as a measure of financial performance and should not be considered as a substitute for net profit or loss, cash flow from operations or other measures of operating performance determined in accordance with IFRS. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to represent funds available for dividends or other discretionary uses because those funds may be required for debt service, capital expenditures, working capital and other commitments and contingencies. There are limitations that impair the use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as measures of OPC's profitability since it does not take into consideration certain costs and expenses that result from OPC's business that could have a significant effect on net profit, such as financial expenses, taxes, and depreciation and amortization.

OPC believes that the disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors and financial analysts in their review of the company's, its subsidiaries', and its associated companies' operating performance and in the comparison of such operating performance to the operating performance of other companies in the same industry or in other industries that have different capital structures, debt levels and/or income tax rates.

Set forth below is a reconciliation of OPC's net profit to Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented. Other companies may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently, and therefore this presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Appendix E

Definition of ZIM's Adjusted EBITDA and non-IFRS reconciliation

This press release, including the financial tables, presents ZIM's Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-IFRS financial measure.

ZIM defines Adjusted EBITDA for each period as net profit/(loss) adjusted to exclude financial expenses/(income), net, income taxes, depreciation and amortization in order to reach EBITDA, and further adjusted to exclude impairments of assets, non-cash charter hire expenses, capital gains/(losses) beyond the ordinary course of business and expenses related to legal contingencies. Adjusted EBITDA is not recognized under IFRS as a measure of financial performance and should not be considered as a substitute for net profit or loss, cash flow from operations or other measures of operating performance determined in accordance with IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to represent funds available for dividends or other discretionary uses because those funds may be required for debt service, capital expenditures, working capital and other commitments and contingencies. There are limitations that impair the use of Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of ZIM's profitability since it does not take into consideration certain costs and expenses that result from ZIM's business that could have a significant effect on net profit, such as financial expenses, taxes, and depreciation and amortization.

ZIM believes that the disclosure of Adjusted EBITDA enables the comparison of operating performance between periods on a consistent basis. This measure should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for operating income, any other performance measure, or cash flow data, which were prepared in accordance with IFRS as measures of profitability or liquidity. In addition, non-IFRS financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies, due to differences in the way these measures are calculated.

Set forth below is a reconciliation of ZIM's net (loss)/profit to Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented (*).

For the three months ended
