OPC's revenues are denominated in NIS. Excluding the impact of translating OPC's revenue from NIS to USD, OPC's revenue increased by \$55 million in Q2 2023, as compared to Q2 2022. Set forth below is a discussion of significant changes in revenue between Q2 2023 and Q2 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 in Q2 2023 was NIS 0.3039 per KW hour, which is approximately 9% higher than the weighted-average generation component tariff in Q2 2022 of NIS 0.2799 per KW hour.

3 Non-IFRS measure. See Appendix C for a definition of OPC's EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of these measures to net loss.

Set forth below is a discussion of changes in the key components in revenue for Q2 2023 compared to Q2 2022.

  • Revenue from sale of energy to private customers in Israel Excluding the impact of translating OPC's revenue from NIS to USD, such revenues increased by \$22 million primarily as a result of (i) \$15 million from an increase in the generation component tariff and (ii) an increase of \$6 million from the consolidation of results of the Gat Power Plant in Q2 2023;
  • Revenue from private customers in respect of infrastructure services Excluding the impact of translating OPC's revenue from NIS to USD, such revenues increased by \$14 million primarily as a result of (i) an increase of \$6 million from an increase in the infrastructure tariff, (ii) an increase of \$6 million from an increase in customer consumption and (iii) an increase of \$2 million from the consolidation of results of the Gat Power Plant in Q2 2023;
  • Revenue from sale of energy to the System Operator and to other suppliers Excluding the impact of translating OPC's revenue from NIS to USD, such revenues increased by \$7 million as a result of consolidation of results from the Gat Power Plant in Q2 2023; and
  • Other revenues Excluding the impact of translating OPC's revenue from NIS to USD, such revenues increased by \$8 million primarily as a result of revenue from test runs of Tzomet Power Plant prior to the commencement of commercial operations, which took place in June 2023.

OPC's cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) is denominated in NIS. Excluding the impact of translating OPC's cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) from NIS to USD, OPC's cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) increased by \$38 million in Q2 2023, as compared to Q2 2022. Set forth below is a discussion of significant changes in cost of sales between Q2 2023 and Q2 2022.

  • Natural gas and diesel oil consumption in Israel – Excluding the impact of translating these costs from NIS to USD, such costs increased by \$15 million primarily due to (i) an increase of \$4 million from an increase in gas prices, which are linked to an increase in the generation component tariff and movements in the USD/NIS exchange rate, (ii) an increase of \$10 million from an increase in gas consumption; and (iii) an increase of \$5 million from the consolidation of results of the Gat Power Plant in Q2 2023, partially offset by a decrease in gas expenses of \$4 million as a result of the commencement of delivery of gas from Energean from Q2 2023;
  • Expenses for infrastructure services in Israel – Excluding the impact of translating these costs from NIS to USD, such costs increased by \$14 million primarily as a result of (i) an increase of \$6 million as such expenses are linked to the infrastructure tariff, (ii) an increase of \$6 million due to an increase in customer consumption and (iii) an increase of \$2 million from the consolidation of results of the Gat Power Plant in Q2 2023; and
  • Other expenses – Excluding the impact of translating these costs from NIS to USD, such costs increased by \$11 million primarily as a result of test runs of Tzomet Power Plant prior to the commencement of commercial operations, which took place in June 2023.

Finance (Expenses)/Income, net

Finance expenses, net in Q2 2023 was \$16 million, as compared to finance income, net of \$9 million in Q2 2022, mainly due to (i) an increase in interest expense relating to loans for the Gat Power Plant and the Mountain Wind project and (ii) a one-off revaluation gain from an intercompany loan amounting to \$16 million during Q2 2022.

Share of Profit/(Loss) of Associated Companies, net

OPC's share of profit of associated companies, net increased by \$14 million in Q2 2023 to \$4 million, as compared to share of loss of associated companies of \$10 million in Q2 2022, primarily as a result of the Towantic Power Plant being fully operational in Q2 2023 as compared to Q2 2022, when the power plant was undergoing unplanned maintenance work.

For further details of the performance of associated companies of CPV, refer to OPC's immediate report published on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange ("TASE") on August 23, 2023 and the convenience English translations furnished by Kenon on Form 6-K on August 23, 2023.

As of June 30, 2023, OPC's proportionate share of debt (including accrued interest) of CPV associated companies was \$780 million and proportionate share of cash and cash equivalents was \$8 million.

Business Developments

Tender for sale of Eshkol as part of the reform of Israel Electric Company ("IEC")

On August 9, 2023, OPC announced that OPC Eshkol submitted a petition to the Tel Aviv Administrative Court requesting remedies including (a) cancellation of the decision by the Tender committee to cancel the Tender and replace it with a new "tender"; (b) to instruct the Tender committee to sell the Eshkol power plant only by way of the Tender; (c) to declare that OPC Eshkol, which was declared a "second qualifier", is the winner of the Tender; and (d) to require the IEC to engage with OPC Eshkol in the purchase contract for the Eshkol power plant. Simultaneously with the submission of the petition, OPC Eshkol submitted a motion for an order delaying any actions that frustrate the resolution of OPC Eshkol's petition.

In August 2023, the Court ordered an extension for the date for submission of bids in the competitive process and scheduled a hearing for September 5, 2023.

For further details relating to the Eshkol tender, refer to OPC's immediate report published on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange ("TASE") on August 23, 2023 and the convenience English translations furnished by Kenon on Form 6-K on August 23, 2023 and Kenon's reports on Form 6-K furnished by Kenon on May 22, 2023, June 18, 2023, July 19, 2023 and August 10, 2023.

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 and 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 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 loss 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.

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.
