From the CEO's Desk

The Phoenix Commitment

CONSTANT GROWTH OVER TIME

Mr. Eyal Ben Simon, CEO

Phoenix's Q2 financial results are an outcome of our commitment to sustainable growth, profitability, and responsible investment management. These, together with diligent risk management, leverage of synergies across Phoenix Group subsidiaries, and focus on innovation and proprietary own distribution, have all contributed to the achievements we share today.

The COVID-19 crisis impacted all financial services companies in Israel, including Phoenix. However, this crisis has also created variety of business opportunities and accelerated shifts in the Group, which were already underway. With the support and collaboration of the Phoenix management team, the Phoenix Group quickly reacted to the crisis by launching a large scale efficiency plan, improved risk management, and a series of new investments. These efforts are strongly reflected in our Q2 results and we expect them to have positive lasting impact on our financials in the coming years. As a part of the comprehensive efficiency plan, the Phoenix planned and executed a reorganization effort matching its organizational design to its future business focus areas, in line with the Company's new strategic plan. As part of this efficiency effort, Phoenix offered voluntary retirement to ~350 employees as well as achieving lowered procurement costs, leading to savings of NIS ~150mn, that will be reflected in our future results.

As part of the recent reorganization, Phoenix introduced a new operating model – Phoenix Pro – that will drastically improve our daily operations and services for our agents and customers across all lines of business.

Q2 results also demonstrate Phoenix's leading position in the Israeli market, driven by its unique business mix, which provides greater diversification and stability. Phoenix operates a multi-line insurance carrier, asset management arm, as well as owned proprietary distribution channels (SMART and owned agencies). This combination creates a solid infrastructure that helps balance the competitive landscape, market fluctuations, and changing regulatory environment.

Lastly, over the past months, the Phoenix Group has developed a new strategic plan. Phoenix's new strategy has been developed with the help of a reputable global consulting firm, leveraging the experience and expertise in developing plans of this nature. Phoenix's Board of Directors and Phoenix's Board Strategy Committee haves been overseeing the plan's development. As Phoenix approaches the completion of its new strategy, we expect it will be brought to the Board of Directors' approval in the near future.
