A. Macro-economic environment (particularly changes in inflation and interest) – for details regarding significant changes in the macro-economic environment in Israel and in the U.S., mainly during 2022 and as a result of the impact of the business environment on the activities of the Group companies, among other things, the prices of energy, electricity and natural gas, tariffs in the Israeli electricity sector, the costs of executing construction projects, financing expenses, currency exchange rates and the like – see Section 11 below.
Set forth below is data with reference to the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in Israel and in the U.S. and the interest rates of Bank of Israel and the Fed and the currency exchange rate:

In January 2023, the Government began advancement of a plan for making changes in Israel's judicial system. Pursuant to the publications in the media, the changes could impact the strength of the Israeli economy, and in particular they could lead to a reduction of the credit rating of the State of Israel (where as at the publication date of the report, the Moody's rating company reduced the rating outlook from "positive" to "stable"), adversely impact investments in the Israeli economy and trigger a removal of money and investments from Israel, increase the costs of the financing sources in Israel, cause of weakening of the exchange rate of the shekel against other currencies (including the dollar) and harm the activities of the business sector. To the extent the above estimates materialize, wholly or partly, this could negatively impact the financial position and activities of the Company customers and suppliers and could also impact the availability and cost of the capital and financing sources that are required by the Company, mainly for purposes of supporting its continued business growth.
B. The Coronavirus and broad global impacts on raw-material prices and the supply chain – for details regarding the impacts of the global trends that started against the background of the Coronavirus crisis and the Company's estimate regarding the continuation and scope thereof on the Group's activities, if any – see Section 3.1B to the Report of the Board of Directors for 2022.
C. Update of the electricity tariffs in the period of the report, including the brackets of the demand hours –
In the period of the report and thereafter, as well as during 2022, a number of updates of the Electricity Authority of the electricity tariff and the generation component entered into effect. For additional details – see Sections 7.2.3 and 7.10 of Part A of the Periodic Report for 2022.
Set forth below is data regarding the weighted-average generation component (the prices are denominated in kilowatt hours):
| Period | 2023 | 2022 | Quarterly change |
|---|---|---|---|
| January | 31.20 | 25.26 | |
| February | 30.81 | 28.69 | |
| March | 30.81 | 28.69 | +12% |
| First quarter average | 30.94 | 27.55 |
Commencing from April 2023, the weighted-average generation component is about NIS 0.3039 per kilowatt hour.
For additional details regarding the updates made and the circumstances thereof – see Section 3.2C to the Report of the Board of Directors for 2022. It is noted that the results of the Group's activities in Israel are materially impacted by changes in the electricity generation tariff, in such a manner that an increase in the electricity tariff has a positive impact on the Group's result, and vice-versa.
In August 2022, the Electricity Authority published a decision to revise, the time of use (TOU) demand categories (brackets) for purposes of adjusting the structure of the load and time tariffs (TOAZ) for a significant integration of solar energy and storage. For additional details – see Section 3.2C of the Report of the Board of Directors for 2022. Based on the decision, the updated tariff structure entered into effect at the beginning of 2023 upon update of the tariff to the consumer for 2023.
As result of the decision, the Group acts on an ongoing basis to adjust the mix of its sales in Israel, to the extent possible, to the structure of the updated demand-hours categories. As stated in the Periodic Report for 2022, update of the demand-hours categories has a negative impact on the Group's results, as detailed in Section 4 below, this being since, in general, the consumption profile of the Group's customers, which are mostly industrial and commercial customers, has low consumption volatility in the daytime hours compared with the consumption profile of households that is reflected in the tariffs and arrangements determined in the update with reference to the low-level and peak hours.1 In the Company's estimation, the annual scope of the negative impact on its activities in Israel is estimated at about NIS 35 million. In addition, a change in the demand brackets changes the seasonal breakdown of the Company's revenues and income in Israel over the year in such a manner that it significantly increases the third quarter (summer season) at the expense of the other quarters – particularly the first quarter, such that the results of the Group's activities in Israel in the period of the report compared with the corresponding quarter last year were more severely impacted against the background of the seasonal difference, as stated (for additional details – see Section 4 below).
D. Supplementary arrangements and granting of a supply license to Rotem – in February 2023, the Electricity Authority published a proposed decision that includes application of benchmarks and granting of a supplier license to Rotem – for additional details – see Section 3.2E of the Report of the Board of Directors for 2022 ("the Proposed Decision"). As at the approval date of the report, a final decision had not yet been published and the arrangements included as part of the Proposed Decision had not yet entered into effect, where to the best of the Company's knowledge, the Electricity Authority is expected to publish a decision regarding the matter. There is no certainty regarding the final language of the arrangements that will be determined (if ultimately determined) and the scope of their impact. Based on the publication, the Proposed Decision creates uniformity regarding many aspects of the regulation applicable to Rotem with that of the generation facilities that are authorized to execute bilateral transactions, and thus they should permit Rotem to operate in the energy market in a manner similar to that of the other generation facilities that are authorized to execute bilateral transactions. In addition, as stated in Section 7.15.5.1 of Part A of the Periodic Report for 2022, in the Company's estimation arrangements as stated in the proposed decision are expected to settle certain disputes between Rotem and the System Operator. Accordingly, to the extent an arrangement is not determined regarding Rotem, as stated, and/or a different arrangement is determined or an arrangement that does not include granting a supply license to Rotem, Rotem will be required to settle the disputes with the System Operator, as stated, and as at the approval date of the report, the Company is not able to estimate the impact of the said disputes on Rotem's activities4 .
For additional details regarding developments of the Group's activities in Israel – see Sections 5 and 9 below.
3 For additional details – see Sections 7.2.4 and 7.10.2 of Part A of the Periodic Report for 2022. That stated in this Section with reference to the impacts of the update to the hourly demand brackets constitutes "forward-looking" information as it is defined in the Securities Law, which is based on the Company's estimates and assumptions as at the date of the report and regarding which there is no certainty it will materialize. Ultimately, the impact could be different than that stated, this being due to, among other things, the Company's estimates with respect to the consumption profile not materializing, the manner of its distribution and/or the actual mix of the customers and/or occurrence of one or more of the risk factors the Company is subject to.
4 For additional details – see Section 7.3.18.5 of Part A of the Periodic Report, which is presented by means of reference.
E. Electricity and natural gas prices
Set forth below are the average natural gas in each of the main markets in which the power plants of the CPV Group operate (the prices are denominated in dollars per MMBtu)*:
| For the Three Months Ended March 31 |
||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Region | ||||
| (Power Plant) | 2023 | 2022 | Change | |
| TETCO M3 (Shore, Valley) | 2.93 | 6.73 | (56)% | |
| Transco Zone 5 North (Maryland) | 3.19 | 7.47 | (57)% | |
| TETCO M2 (Fairview) | 2.25 | 4.10 | (45)% | |
| Dominion South (Valley) | 2.22 | 4.06 | (45)% | |
| Algonquin (Towantic) | 5.13 | 13.67 | (62)% |
*Source: The Day-Ahead prices at gas Midpoints as reported in Platt's Gas Daily. It is clarified that the actual gas prices of the power plants of the CPV Group could be significantly different.
As is shown by the above table, the natural gas prices in the CPV Group's activity markets decreased significantly in the period of the report compared with the corresponding period last year. In the estimation of the CPV Group, the said decrease in the natural gas price is mainly against the background of the warm winter conditions that existed in the CPV Group's activity markets along with high seasonal inventory levels of natural gas.
The following table summarizes the average electricity prices in each of the main markets in which power plants of the CPV Group are active (the prices are denominated in dollars per megawatt hour):
| For the | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Three Months Ended March 31 |
||||
| Region | ||||
| (Power Plant) | 2023 | 2022 | Change | |
| PJM West (Shore and Maryland) | 33.13 | 55.58 | (40)% | |
| PJM AD Hub (Fairview) | 31.05 | 48.46 | (36)% | |
| NY-ISO Zone G (Valley) | 42.09 | 94.69 | (56)% | |
| ISO-NE Mass Hub (Towantic) | 50.57 | 110.72 | (54)% |
Based on Day-Ahead prices as published by the relevant ISO. It is clarified that the actual gas prices of the power plants of the CPV Group could be significantly different.
The decrease in the electricity prices in the period of the report compared with the corresponding periods last year, as shown by the above table, corresponds to the trend of decreasing natural gas prices.

Availability (capacity) is a payment component that is paid by regulatory bodies that manage demand and loads (system operators) for electricity generators, with respect to their ability to generate energy at the required times for purposes of reliability of the system. This payment component is an additional component, separate and apart from the component based on the energy prices (which is paid in respect of sale of the electricity). Definition of the payment component, as stated, including entitlement to a payment for seeing to availability of the electricity, including provisions regarding bonus or penalty payments, are governed by the tariffs determined by the FERC of every market. Accordingly, NY-ISO, PJM and ISO-NE publish mandatory public tenders for determination of the a1vailability (capacity) tariffs.
It is noted that, in the nature of things, an increase in the availability (capacity) prices favorably impacts CPV's results, and vice-versa. The impact on the overall results changes as a function of the energy margins, which impacts the essential payment component for generation of the electricity and the sale thereof – this being taking into account that the weight of the availability (capacity) payments is usually lower than the sale of the electricity component.
In the PJM market, the capacity payments vary between the market's sub-regions, as a function of local supply and demand and transmission capabilities.
Set forth below are the capacity tariffs in the sub-regions that are relevant to the CPV Group's power plants and in the general market (the prices are denominated in dollars per megawatt per day). It can be seen in the following table that the availability prices have declined from period to period – this being mainly as a result of a decline in the expected demand, increase in the projects based on gas and renewable energy projects – and respectively, offering of lower prices by the players as part of the availability tenders.
| Sub-Region | CPV Plants5 | 2024/2025 | 2023/2024 | 2022/2023 | 2021/2022 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| PJM RTO | 28.92 | 34.13 | 50 | 140 | |
| PJM COMED | Three Rivers | 28.92 | 34.13 | - | - |
| PJM MAAC | Fairview, Maryland, Maple Hill | 49.49 | 49.49 | 95.79 | 140 |
| PJM EMAAC | Shore | 54.95 | 49.49 | 97.86 | 165.73 |
Source: PJM
5 The Three Rivers project, which is in the construction stages, will be entitled to capacity payments, subject to completion of the construction, commencing from its commercial operation.
Similar to the PJM market, the NYISO market availability payments are made as part of a mechanism for centralized purchase of availability. For additional details, particularly regarding seasonal and new tenders – see Section 3.3G of the Report of the Board of Directors for 2022.
Set forth below are the capacity prices determined in the seasonal tenders in NYISO market, the availability prices rose compared with prior periods – and this being mainly due to exit from the system of power plants and an anticipated increase in demand (the prices are denominated in dollars per megawatt per day):
| Sub-Area | CPV Plants |
Summer 2023 | Winter 2022/2023 | Summer 2022 | Winter 2021/2022 |

Source: NYISO – the Company's processing in order to convert from dollars for kilowatt per month to dollars for megawatt per day.
It is noted that the Valley power plant is located in Area G (Lower Hudson Valley) and the actual capacity prices for the Valley power plants are impacted by the seasonal tenders, the monthly tenders and the SPOT prices, with variable capacity prices every month, as well as bilateral agreements with energy suppliers in the market.
The Towantic power plant, which operates in this market, participated for the first time in a capacity tender for 2018–2019 at a price of \$313.97 MW/day and determination of the tariff for seven years in respect of 725 megawatts linked to the Utilities Inputs Index, which will apply up to May 2025. Set forth below are the capacity payments determined in the sub-regions that are relevant to the Towantic power plant (the prices are denominated in dollars per megawatt per day):
| Sub-Region | CPV Power Plants | 2026/2027 | 2025/2026 | |

| Rest of the Market |
Source: NE-ISO – the Company's processing in order to convert from dollars for kilowatt per month to dollars for megawatt per day.
It is noted that the actual availability prices for the Towantic power plant are impacted by forward tenders, supplemental annual tenders, monthly tenders with variable capacity prices in every month and bilateral agreements with the energy suppliers in the market.
G. For additional details regarding the IRA Law, which grants significant tax benefits to projects involving renewable energies and carbon capture technologies, and the impact thereof on the construction and development projects of the CPV Group – see Section 3.2H of the Report of the Board of Directors for 2022.
For additional details regarding developments in the Company's activities in the U.S. – see Sections 5 and 9 below.
The Group's activities in Israel and the United States are subject to seasonal fluctuations (for additional details regarding seasonal impacts – see Sections 7.10 and 8.7 to Part A of the Company's Periodic Report for 2022 and Section 3.2C above.
In Israel, the TOAZ tariffs are supervised (controlled) and published by the Electricity Authority. For details regarding a decision to update the hourly demand categories of the TOAZ commencing from January 1, 2023 – see Section 3.2C above and Section 7.2.4 of Part A (Description of the Company's Business) of the Periodic Report for 2022. Update of the hourly demand brackets changes the breakdown of the Company's revenues over the quarters in such a manner that it increases the third quarter (the summer months) at the expense of the other quarters, and particularly the first quarter.
In the United States, the electricity tariffs are not supervised (controlled) and are impacted by the demand for electricity, which is generally high in the summer and the winter compared with the average and as a function of the natural gas prices. In 2023, the winter season was warmer than usual in such a manner that had a negative impact on the electricity margins relative to this season, as detailed in Section 3.3 above.

8 It is emphasized that "adjusted income or loss" as stated in this report is not a recognized data item that is recognized under IFRS or under any other set of generally accepted accounting principles as an index for measuring financial performance and should not be considered as a substitute for income or loss or other terms provided in accordance with IFRS. It is possible that the Company's definitions of "adjusted income or loss" are different than those used by other companies. Nonetheless, the Company believes that the "adjusted income or loss" provides information that is useful to management and investors by means of eliminating certain line items (categories) that do not constitute an indication of the Company's ongoing business activities.

C. Analysis of the change in adjusted EBITDA – segment in Israel
Set forth below is an analysis of the change in adjusted EBITDA in Israel in the period of the report compared with the corresponding period last year (in NIS millions):

12 That stated with reference to the maintenance work and the duration of the period thereof constitutes "forward-looking" information, as it is defined in the Securities Law, 1968 ("the Securities Law") which is based on the Company's estimates as at the submission date of the report. Actually, the maintenance work could be postponed or could continue even beyond that planned due to, among other things, technical delays, disruptions or breakdowns in the work process, and/or delay in arrival of the work teams or equipment to the site. The maintenance work and a delay and/or problems with the maintenance work (particularly a continuing delay) could have a significant negative impact on Hadera's results.

Set forth below is an analysis of the change in the adjusted EBITDA in the energy transition segment in the U.S. in the period of the report compared with the corresponding period last year (in millions of NIS):13

14 That stated with reference to maintenance work, the duration thereof and the expected projects constitutes "forward-looking" information, as it is defined in the Securities Law, 1968 ("the Securities Law"). It is noted that additional maintenance work may be required in the power plants of the CPV Group, including unplanned maintenance work, due to a change in the timetables or breakdowns. Partial activities or a shutdown of the power plants for extended periods would have a negative impact on the results of the CPV Group.

13 For the definition of adjusted EBITDA – see Section 4B above to the Report of the Board of Directors for 2022.
As at the approval date of the report, the CPV Group has entered into hedging agreements, which assure the energy margins and availability payments for the nominal supply of the power plants running on natural gas (that are held through associated companies). For details regarding the manner of provision of collaterals by the CPV Group in respect of the hedging agreements – see Section 4D(5) of the Report of the Board of Directors for 2022.
Set forth below is the scope of the hedging for the rest of 2023:
| April–December 2023 (**) | |
|---|---|
| Scope of the hedged energy (% of the power plant's capacity based on the expected generation) | 10% |
| Hedged energy margin (millions of NIS) (*) | About 70 (about \$20 million) |
| Set forth below is the scope of the secured availability payments for the rest of 2023: | April–December 2023 (**) |
| Scope of the availability payments (% of the power plant's capacity) | 92% |

37 As stated in Section 8.1.4(F) of Part A of the Periodic Report for 2022, on the approval date of the report Valley submitted a request to receive an environmental permit under Title V, and in the interim period it is permitted to continue its activities under the prior permit up to a final decision (after full utilization of an appeal in a case of a rejection) regarding the Title V permit. Further to that stated in Section 8.1.4(A) to Part A of the Periodic Report for 2022, as at the approval date of the report, the agreement for extension of the statutory time limit was extended up to September 29, 2023. Up to receipt of the Title V permit (if received), the revised terms of Valley's financing agreement are expected to be negatively impacted by the fact that receipt of the permit has not yet been completed (among other things regarding the extension period of the loan and the interest rate). As at the approval date of the report, there is no certainty that the Title V permit will be received or regarding the timing of its receipt. That stated above includes "forward-looking" information as it is defined in the Securities Law, which is based on the estimates of the CPV Group. Ultimately, the processes regarding the Title V permit could be different due to regulatory decisions, changes in regulation or the policies the relevant authorities will apply, in such a manner that could have a negative impact on Valley's activities. That stated regarding signing of the financing extension documents, the expected date of their completion and/or the financing conditions (if signed), including the scope of the investment of the shareholders, constitutes "forward-looking" information, regarding which there is no certainty it will materialize and/or which might ultimately be different than that stated – this being due to factors that are not under the CPV Group's control.

In the period of the report, there were no significant changes in the details of the outstanding debentures issued by the Company and that were offered to the public pursuant to a prospectus, the details of the trustees for the debentures, the conditions for call the debentures for immediate repayment, compliance on the part of the Company with these conditions and the collaterals for the debentures, as detailed in Section 11 to the Report of the Board of Directors for 2022 and in Note 17 to the consolidated financial statements for 2022.
The Company is in compliance with all the conditions of the Company's debentures (Series B and Series C) and the trust certificates. The Company was not required to take any action in accordance with the request of the trustees for the said debentures.
Changes in the macro-economic environment, which are characterized by high rates of inflation, strengthening of the dollar against the shekel and rising interest rates, could impact the Group's activities in different ways, including, an impact on the electricity generation component (and as a result an impact on the Company's natural gas revenues and costs) and other index-linked revenues, an increase in fixed expenses (including wages), maintenance costs, project construction costs – both in Israel and overseas, equipment acquisition costs and financing expenses in respect of loans and debentures the Group companies are liable for that bear variable interest and/or are linked to the CPI. In addition, an increase in the interest rate could impact the economic feasibility of projects under construction, the discount rates used for examining impairment of the value of active projects, projects under construction or in the development stage and cash-generating units to which goodwill was allocated, and the fair value of a liability in respect of a profit-sharing plan in the CPV Group. It is noted that changes in the currency exchange rate, particularly the exchange rate of the dollar, also impact the Company.
Set forth below is disclosure regarding impacts of changes in the currency exchange rates, CPI and interest rates on the Group's activities. Taking into account the complexity of an analysis of the impacts of the said factors, particularly since some of them are indirect (and not direct) impacts and the existence of reciprocal relationships between the various macro-economic parameters, the Company is not able to estimate the impacts of the changes in the said macro-economic parameters on the Company's overall results.
The Group is exposed to changes in the currency exchange rates, particularly the exchange rate of the dollar.
Regarding its activities in Israel, the Company is exposed to a change in the exchange rate of the dollar, directly and indirectly, due to the linkage of a significant part of its revenues to the generation tariff (which is impacted, in part, by changes in the exchange rate of the dollar), while on the other hand acquisitions of the natural gas, some of which are linked to the dollar exchange rate and/or are denominated based on the dollar exchange rate, are also linked to the generation tariff and include dollar floor prices.
Therefore, even though an increase in the rate of the dollar increases the cost of the natural gas purchased by the Company, the structure of the revenues includes a partial natural hedge that reduces the said exposure. Nonetheless, it is pointed out that generally the generation component is updated once a year, and accordingly timing differences are possible between the impact of a rise in the rate of the dollar on the current gas cost and its impact on the Company's gross margin. The said timing differences could have a negative effect on the Company's current profit and cash flows in the short run. In the long run, a rise in the rate of the dollar will lead to an increase in the generation tariff and, in turn, to an increase in the Company's revenues corresponding to the increase in the gas costs, such that a strengthening of the dollar could adversely impact the Company's profits.
In addition, from time to time the Company enters into hedges of the currency exposure in significant construction and maintenance contracts that are denominated in different currencies, particularly the dollar and the euro.
It is noted that from time to time, and based on business considerations and risk-management policies, the Company makes use of forward contracts on the exchange rates.
With reference to the Company's investment in the CPV Group, which operates in the U.S. with a dollar functional currency, in general a fall in the dollar rate has a negative impact on the dollar value of the Company's investment and on the Company's net income and shareholders' equity. On the other hand, due to the need to raise financing in Israel in shekels in order to finance the expected investments in the construction and development projects of the CPV Group, an increase in the dollar could lead to an increase in the financing requirements in order to realize these investments.

The Group is exposed to changes in the CPI. Regarding its activities in Israel, the Company is exposed to changes in the CPI, directly and indirectly, mainly due to linkage of a significant part of its revenues to the generation component (which is impacted partly by a change in the CPI). On the other hand, purchases of the natural gas are partly linked to the generation component and include, as stated, a dollar floor price. Also, part of the Company's capital costs and investments are linked to the CPI, directly or indirectly. Therefore, despite the fact that an increase in the CPI increases the Company's costs and investments, the structure of the revenues includes a partial natural hedge that reduces the said exposure, such that the Company's profits could be positively affected by an increase in the CPI.
Furthermore, the Company is exposed to changes in the CPI with respect to the terms of the Company's debentures (Series B) and part of Hadera's loans (regarding which hedging transactions were not executed as detailed in Note 23 to the financial statements for 2022). An increase in the CPI increases the Company's liabilities and financing costs. In order to reduce part of the exposure to changes in the CPI with respect to Hadera's loans, in June 2019 the Group entered into transactions with a bank for purposes of hedging part of the exposure to the CPI.
The Group loans and liabilities bearing variable interest that is based on prime or Libor plus a margin. An increase in the variable interest rates could cause an increase in the Group's financing costs. In addition, an increase in the interest rates could impact the discount rates for projects (active, under construction and in development) and could also lead to a lack of economic feasibility of continued development and/or acquisition of projects and a slowdown in the Company's growth processes, along with an existence of signs of impairment of value of assets and/or recording of impairment losses in the financial statements.
In order to reduce the exposure to changes in the interest rate in Israel (mainly prime), the Group makes use of mix of loans (including credit frameworks) and debentures in such a manner that part of the loans and the debentures bear fixed interest and part of them bear variable interest.
Most of the long-term loans and credit frameworks of the CPV Group (including through associated companies) bear variable interest (mainly Libor) and have cash flow exposure to changes in the interest rates. In order to reduce part of the exposure to interest risk, the CPV Group enters into transactions for swap of variable dollar interest for fixed dollar interest with respect to part of its long-term loans.
For additional details regarding the Group's policies for management of the financial risks and sensitivity analyses – see Note 23 to the financial statements for 2022.
Further to that stated in Note 6(1)1 to the Interim Statements regarding completion of a transaction for acquisition of all the rights in the Gat Power Plant on March 30, 2023, on the completion date of the transaction the Company performed a valuation for determination of the fair value of the identified assets and liabilities of the Gat Power Plant and determination of the amount of the goodwill and the manner of allocation thereof to the cash-generating units, by means of an external independent appraiser (BDO Ziv Haft). For additional details regarding the valuation – see Note 6A(1) to the Interim Statements. Up to the approval date of the report, the Company had not yet completed allocation of the acquisition cost – this being in light of the short period of time from the date of the business combination and the approval date of the report, and as a result part of the fair value data is still not final and there could be changes to them.
| Subject matter of the valuation | Determination of the fair value of the identified assets and liabilities of the Gat power plant and determination of the amount of the goodwill and the method for allocation thereof to the cash-generating units pursuant to the provisions of IFRS 3. |
|---|---|
| Date of the valuation | March 30, 2023. |
| Value of the identified assets and liabilities and the amount of the goodwill as at the valuation date |
About NIS 555 million. |
| Identity of the appraiser and his characteristics |
The valuation was performed by a team headed by Mr. Sagiv Mizrahi, CPA, a partner and team manager in the Corporate Finance Department of the Office of BDO (Ziv Haft). Sagiv has a Bachelor's degree in applied mathematics from Bar Ilan University and a Master's degree in business administration (MBA), with honors, and a specialization in financial management from Tel-Aviv University. Sagiv has more than 10 years of experience in the areas of business and economic consulting, valuations of companies and financial instruments and economic–accounting work of various types in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (U.S GAAP). In the past, Sagiv was a lecturer at Bar Ilan University in accounting and valuations. |
| Valuation model | The fair value of the power plant was estimated using the revenues' method, the multi-period excess earnings method (MPEEM). The fundamental assumption of this method is that the value of the asset being estimated equals the present value of the free cash flows allocable to the asset less the fair rate of return of the required assets (the cash flow assets) for purposes of realization of these cash flows. |
| The assumptions based on which the appraiser performed the valuation |
– The nominal shekel weighted-average cost of capital (WACC) rates ranges between 8% and 8.75%. – Forecast years – represents the period between March 31, 2023 and up to December 31, 2059, and is based on an estimate of the economic useful life of the power plant. |
Further to that stated in Note 6B(1) to the Interim Statements with respect to completion of the transaction for acquisition of all of the rights in the Mountain Wind project on April 5, 2023, as at the completion date of the transaction the CPV Group made an initial valuation in order to determine the fair value of the identified assets and liabilities of the Mountain Wind project as well as to determine the amount and manner of allocation of the goodwill to the cash-generating units. For additional details regarding the valuation – see Note 6B(1) to the Interim Statements. Up to the approval date of the report, the CPV Group had not yet completed allocation of the acquisition cost – this being in light of the short period of time from the date of the business combination and the approval date of the report, and as a result part of the fair value data is still not final and there could be changes to them.

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

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

We have reviewed the accompanying financial information of OPC Energy Ltd. (hereinafter – the "Company") and its subsidiaries, including the condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position as of March 31, 2023, and the condensed consolidated interim statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended. The Board of Directors and management are responsible for preparing and presenting financial information for this interim period in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, and are also responsible for preparing financial information for this interim period under Chapter D of the Securities Regulations (Periodic and Immediate Reports), 1970. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion regarding the financial information for this interim period based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with Review Standard (Israel) 2410 - "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity" of the Institute of Certified Public Accountants in Israel. A review of financial information for interim periods consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially smaller in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Israel and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might have been identifiable in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the aforementioned financial information was not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the International Accounting Standard (IAS 34).
In addition to that mentioned in the previous paragraph, based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the aforementioned financial information does not comply, in all material respects, with the disclosure requirements of Section D of the Securities Regulations (Periodic and Immediate Reports), 1970.

The accompanying notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements are an integral part thereof.
OPC Energy Ltd. (hereinafter – "the Company") was incorporated in Israel on February 2, 2010. The Company's registered address is 121 Menachem Begin Blvd., Tel Aviv, Israel. The Company's controlling shareholder is Kenon Holdings Ltd. (hereinafter - the "Parent Company"), a company incorporated in Singapore, the shares of which are dual-listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (hereinafter - the "TASE").
The Company is a publicly traded company whose securities are traded on the TASE.
As of the approval date of the report, the Company and its investees (hereinafter - the "Group") are engaged in the generation and supply of electricity and energy through three reportable segments. For further details regarding the Group's operating segments during the reporting period, see Note 27 to the Financial Statements as of December 31, 2022 (hereinafter – the "Annual Financial Statements").
The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 (hereinafter – "IAS 34") - "Interim Financial Reporting" and do not include all of the information required in complete Annual Financial Statements. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Financial Statements. In addition, these financial statements were prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section D of the Securities Regulations (Periodic and Immediate Reports) 1970.
The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements were approved for publication by the Company's Board of Directors on May 23, 2023.
The New Israeli Shekel (NIS) is the currency that represents the primary economic environment in which the Company operates. Accordingly, the NIS is the Company's functional currency. The NIS also serves as the presentation currency in these financial statements. Currencies other than the NIS constitute foreign currency.
In preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with the IFRS, the Company's management is required to use judgment when making estimates, assessments and assumptions that affect implementation of the policies and the amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. It is clarified that the actual results may differ from these estimates.
Management's judgment, at the time of implementing the Group's accounting policies and the main assumptions used in the estimates involving uncertainty, are consistent with those used in the Annual Financial Statements.
The Group carried out several immaterial reclassifications in its comparative figures, such that their classification will match their classification in the current financial statements.
The Group companies' results in Israel are based on the generation component, which constitute part of the energy demand management rate (hereinafter – the "TAOZ"), which is regulated and published by the Israeli Electricity Authority. Through January 2023, the year was broken down into three seasons: summer (July and August), winter (December, January and February) and "transitional" (March through June and September through November), and for each season a different tariff was set for each demand hour cluster (hereinafter - "DHC"). Two key changes occurred as from January 2023: (1) The cancellation of the mid-peak DHC tariff, on account of the expansion of the number of months of the peak and off-peak DHCs; (2) the summer season was extended to 4 months instead of two months, such that June to September are considered as summer, March to May and October to November are considered as the transitional season, and the winter season did not change. Changing the DHCs alters the seasonality of the distribution of the Company's revenues and profitability in Israel over the year, so as to significantly increase the third quarter (the summer months) on account of the other quarters, especially the first quarter.
In the USA, the activity of CPV Group is affected by seasonality as a result of variable demand due to, among other things, weather changes in different seasons, and gas and electricity prices. In general, with respect to gas-fired power plants, there is higher profitability in seasons where temperatures are at their highest or lowest - usually during summer and winter. Similarly, the profitability of renewable energy production is subject to production volume, which varies based on wind and solar constructions, as well as its electricity price, which tends to be higher in winter, unless there is a fixed contractual price for the project.
The Group's accounting policies in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as the policies applied to the Annual Financial Statements.

Further to what is stated in Note 28D to the annual financial statements regarding the Group's engagement in a transaction for the acquisition of the Gat Power Plant, on March 30, 2023, the transaction was completed, and all rights in the Gat Power Plant were transferred to the Group. The transaction was completed in consideration for a total of NIS 873 million (which is subject to adjustments to working capital as is generally accepted in agreements of this type), of which NIS 303 million were used to repay the shareholders' loan, and the remaining balance of NIS 570 million was used to acquire all the rights in the Gat Partnership (of which a total of NIS 300 million constitutes a deferred consideration that will be paid through December 31, 2023). For more information regarding the project financing agreement that was signed on March 30, 2023, and which was used to finance part of the consideration as stated above, see Note 7A1.
Management estimates that had the acquisition taken place on January 1, 2023, the revenue amount in the consolidated statement of income for the first quarter of 2023 would have been NIS 550 million and the consolidated income for that period would have been NIS 78 million.
The acquisition of the Gat Power Plant was accounted for according to the provisions of IFRS 3 - "Business Combinations". Therefore, on the Transaction Completion Date, the Company included in its financial statements the net identifiable assets of the Gat Power Plant in accordance with their fair value. By the approval date of the financial statements, the Company had not yet completed allocation of the acquisition cost to the identified assets and liabilities, in light of the short time from the date of the business combination to the date approval of the financial statements. As a result, some of the fair value figures are still provisional and there may be changes that will affect the data included in these financial statements.
Set forth below is the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired (according to temporary amounts):
| In NIS million | |
|---|---|
| Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables |
2 24 |
| Property, plant, and equipment and right-of-use assets - facilities and electricity generation and supply license (1) | 795 |
| Property, plant, and equipment - land owned by the Gat Partnership (2) | 84 |
| Trade and other payables | (23) |
| Loans from former right holders (3) | (303) |
| Deferred tax liability | (109) |
| Identifiable assets, net | 470 |
| Goodwill (4) | 85 |
| Total consideration (5) | 555 |
(1) The Group opted to implement the expedient as per IFRS 3 and allocate the fair value of the facilities and the electricity supply license to a single asset. The fair value was determined by an independent appraiser using the income approach, the MultiPeriod Excess Earning Method (MPEEM). The valuation methodology included several key assumptions that constituted the basis for cash flow forecasts, including, among other things, electricity and gas prices, and nominal post-tax discount rate of 8%-8.75%. The said assets are amortized over 27 years from the acquisition date, considering an expected residual value at the end of the assets' useful life.
(2) The fair value of the land was determined by an external and independent land appraiser using the discounted cash flow technique (the discount rate used is 8%).
(3) As stated above, the loans were repaid immediately after the acquisition date.
(4) The goodwill arising as part of the business combination reflects the synergy between the activity of the Gat Power Plant and the Rotem Power Plant.
(5) The consideration includes a cash payment of NIS 270 million plus deferred consideration, whose present value is estimated at NIS 285 million.
| In NIS million | |
|---|---|
| The aggregate cash flows that were used by the Group for the acquisition transaction: | |
| Cash and other cash equivalents paid | 270 |
| Cash and other cash equivalents acquired | (2) |
| 268 |
Furthermore, NIS 303 million was used to repay the shareholders' loan as described above.

The restructuring (transfer of assets and share exchange) and investment transaction entered into between Veridis, the Company and OPC Israel (a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company) was completed in January 2023; as part of the transaction, assets were transferred from the Company and from Veridis to OPC Israel and a wholly-owned company thereof; the transfer was tax-exempt in accordance with the provisions of the Income Tax Ordinance and was made in consideration for the allocation of shares in OPC Israel and a whollyowned company thereof.
In addition, a shareholders agreement between the Company and Veridis was signed and came into force, which regulates their relationship in OPC Israel, such that as from the transaction completion date, all of the Company's electricity and energy generation and supply in Israel are wholly-owned by OPC Israel.21 Furthermore, on the transaction completion date, Veridis transferred to OPC Israel a total of NIS 452 million (after adjustments to working capital as is generally accepted in agreements of this type); against the transfer of said investment and Veridis's rights in the Rotem companies, 20% of OPC Israel's issued capital was allocated to Veridis. It should be noted that a total of NIS 400 million out of the said investment amount was used by Rotem to repay (pro rata) part of shareholders' loans extended by the Company and Veridis to Rotem in 2021 (for more information, see Note 25D2 to the Annual Financial Statements). In addition, as part of the Transaction, arrangements were put in place regarding guarantees that the Company provided and/or will provide in favor of the assets transferred to OPC Israel, as well as indemnity arrangements in respect of such guarantees that will be retained by the Company. As of the approval date of the report, the parties take steps to complete actions in connection with the financing agreements of the Zomet and Hadera power plants, and in connection with adapting the said agreements to the holdings structure after the completion of the transaction.
The accounting treatment applied to the Veridis transaction in accordance with the provisions of IFRS 10 is a transaction with non-controlling interests while retaining control; accordingly, all differences between the cash received from Veridis as stated above and the increase in the non-controlling interests line item was recognized in capital reserve from transactions with non-controlling interests.
2 In January 2023, on the eve of the transaction's completion, the Company transferred to OPC Israel, among other things, the shares of OPC Power Plants, the holdings in Rotem 2, the holdings in Gnrgy, as well as other companies and operations in the area of activity in Israel, such as energy generation facilities on consumers' premises, virtual electricity supply activity, and more.
Further to what is stated in Note 29B to the annual financial statements regarding CPV Group's engagement in an agreement for the acquisition of all rights in four active wind energy power plants (hereinafter - the "Mountain Wind Project"), on April 5, 2023, the transaction was completed and CPV Group received all rights in the Mountain Wind Project against payment of a NIS 625 million (USD 175 million) consideration (after adjustments as is generally accepted in agreements of this type). For more information regarding the project financing agreement that was signed on April 6, 2023, and which was used to finance part of the consideration as stated above, see Note 7A2.
The acquisition of the Mountain Wind project was accounted for according to the provisions of IFRS 3 - "Business Combinations". Therefore, the Company will include - in its financial statements for the second quarter of 2023, at the Transaction Completion Date - the fair value of the net identifiable assets and goodwill of the Mountain Wind Project.
As of the approval date of the financial statements, the Company had not yet completed the attribution of the acquisition cost to the identifiable assets and liabilities, in light of the short time that had elapsed from the date of the business combination to the financial statements approval date. As a result, some of the fair value data is temporary and there may be changes that will affect the data included below.
Set forth below is the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired (based on temporary values):
| In NIS million (Based on the exchange rate at the acquisition date) |
In USD millions | |
|---|---|---|
| Trade and other receivables | 14 | 4 |
| Property, plant & equipment (1) | 451 | 127 |
| Intangible assets (1) | 93 | 26 |
| Trade and other payables | (3) | (1) |
| Liabilities in respect of evacuation and removal | (5) | (2) |
| Identifiable assets, net | 550 | 154 |
| Goodwill (2) | 75 | 21 |
| Total consideration | 625 | 175 |
(1) The fair value was determined by the CPV Group using the discounted cash flow method. The valuation methodology included a number of key assumptions that constituted the basis for cash flow forecasts, including, among other things, electricity prices, and nominal post-tax discount rate of 5.75%-6.25%. Intangible assets are amortized over 13 to 17 years, and property, plant, and equipment items are depreciated over 20 to 29 years.
(2) The goodwill reflects the business potential embodied in the Group's entry into the renewable energies market in New England, USA. CPV Group expects that the entire amount of the goodwill will be deductible for tax purposes.

In March 2023, the Gat Partnership and Bank Leumi le-Israel B.M. (hereinafter - "Bank Leumi") signed a financing agreement for a senior debt (project financing) to finance the construction of the Gat Power Plant, as described in Note 6A1; set forth below are the key points of the agreement:

Furthermore, in order to secure the credit facilities, the banking corporation was provided with pledges on the assets of the Mountain Wind Project and the rights therein.
On May 12, 2023, CPV Group entered into a NIS 280 million (USD 78 million) tax equity partner investment agreement in the Maple Hill project (hereinafter - the "Project"). Pursuant to the Agreement, the tax equity partner's investment in the Project shall be provided in part (20%) on the date of completion of the construction works (Mechanical Completion) and the remainder (80%) on the Commercial Operation Date, as these terms are defined in the Agreement, subject to the fulfillment of the terms and conditions prescribed for that in the Agreement on each said date, as is the accepted norm in agreements of this type.
