Kenon Holdings Reports Q2 2019 Results and Additional Updates

Singapore, September 3, 2019. Kenon Holdings Ltd. (NYSE: KEN, TASE: KEN) ("Kenon") announces its results for Q2 2019 and additional updates to its businesses.

Key Highlights

OPC

  • OPC's revenue of \$85 million in Q2 2019 was comparable to revenue of \$84 million in Q2 2018.
  • OPC's net profit was nil in Q2 2019, the same as in Q2 2018.
  • OPC's EBITDA1 was \$18 million in Q2 2019, the same as in Q2 2018.
  • OPC reported that the arbitration tribunal dismissed all of the Tamar Group's claims against OPC-Rotem, resulting in the release to OPC of \$22 million in cash which had been deposited in a trust account relating to the dispute, and the award of certain legal fees and expenses.

Kenon

• Kenon's subsidiary received a favorable award of \$30 million, plus pre-award interest, in a commercial arbitration proceeding related to rights retained by that subsidiary following the sale of the Inkia businesses. The award is subject to tax.

Discussion of Results for the Three Months ended June 30, 2019

Kenon's consolidated results of operations from its operating companies essentially comprise the consolidated results of OPC Energy Ltd. ("OPC"). The results of Qoros Automotive Co., Ltd. ("Qoros") and ZIM Integrated Shipping Ltd. ("ZIM") are reflected under results from associates.

See Exhibit 99.2 of Kenon's Form 6-K dated September 3, 2019 for summary Kenon consolidated financial information; summary OPC consolidated financial information; a reconciliation of OPC's EBITDA (which is a non-IFRS measure) to net profit; and summary operational and financial information of OPC and its subsidiaries.

1 EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure. See Exhibit 99.2 of Kenon's Form 6-K dated September 3, 2019 for the definition of OPC's EBITDA and a reconciliation to its net profit for the applicable period.

OPC

The following discussion of OPC's results of operations is based on OPC's consolidated financial statements, as translated into US dollars.

Summary Financial Information of OPC

Q2 2019 Q2 2018
\$ millions
Revenue 85 84
Cost of sales (excluding depreciation and amortization) 64 63
Finance expenses, net 10 9

Revenue

For the three months ended June 30,
2019 2018
\$ millions
Revenue from energy generated by OPC and sold to private customers 56 56
Revenue from energy purchased by OPC and sold to private customers 5 4
Revenue from private customers in respect of infrastructures services 19 20
Revenue from energy sold to the System Administrator 1 -
Revenue from sale of steam 4 4
Total 85 84

OPC's revenue from the sale of electricity to private customers derives from electricity sold at the generation component tariffs, as published by the EA, with some discount. The weightedaverage generation component tariff for 2019, as published by the EA in January 2019, is NIS 0.2909 per KW hour. In 2018, the weighted average generation component tariff was NIS 0.2816 per KW hour. OPC's revenues from the sale of steam are linked partly to the price of gas and partly to the Israeli Consumer Price Index (CPI).

  • Revenue from energy generated by OPC and sold to private customers – remained similar to Q2 2018. As OPC's revenue is denominated in NIS, translation of its revenue into US Dollars had a negative impact of \$1 million. Excluding the impact of exchange rate fluctuations, OPC's revenues increased by \$1 million, primarily as a result of the increase of the generation component tariff in January 2019.
  • Revenue from energy purchased by OPC and sold to private customers increased by \$1 million as compared to Q2 2018, primarily as a result of an increase in energy consumption by customers during the period.
  • Revenue from private customers in respect of infrastructures services decreased by \$1 million as compared to Q2 2018, primarily as a result of a decrease in the infrastructure services tariffs in January 2019.

Cost of Sales (Excluding Depreciation and Amortization)

For the three months ended June 30,
2019 2018
\$ millions
Natural gas and diesel oil consumption 34 33
Payment to IEC for infrastructure services and purchase of electricity 24 24
Natural gas transmission 2 2
Operating expenses 4 4
Total 64 63

Natural gas and diesel oil consumption – increased by \$1 million as compared to Q2 2018, primarily due to an increase in OPC's natural gas price, reflecting the increase in the generation component and an increase in the USD:NIS exchange rate.

Payment to IEC for infrastructures services and purchase of electricity – remained similar to Q2 2018.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2019, OPC had cash and cash equivalents and short-term deposits of \$162 million, restricted cash of \$88 million, and total outstanding consolidated indebtedness of \$618 million, consisting of \$36 million of short-term indebtedness and \$582 million of long-term indebtedness. All of OPC's debt is denominated in NIS.

Business Developments

Update on Tamar Arbitration

In July 2019, OPC announced the ruling in the arbitration proceedings commenced by the Tamar Group against OPC-Rotem relating to the indexation of the natural gas price formula for OPC-Rotem's gas supply agreement with the Tamar Group. OPC reported that the arbitration ruling dismissed all of the Tamar Group's claims against OPC-Rotem. The arbitration tribunal agreed with OPC-Rotem's position regarding the applicable tariff to be applied in calculating the contract price during the disputed period.

In addition, the arbitration tribunal ordered the Tamar Group to pay OPC-Rotem approximately \$4 million for expenses incurred by OPC-Rotem in connection with the arbitration proceedings. OPC-Rotem is also entitled to receive the amounts it had deposited in May 2017 (approximately \$22 million) in a trust account in connection with the dispute, and any interest accrued since such time.

Update on the Construction of the OPC-Hadera Plant

OPC-Hadera is constructing a 148 MW co-generation power plant in Israel. OPC expects that the total cost of completing the OPC-Hadera plant will be approximately NIS 1 billion (approximately \$274 million).

As of June 30, 2019, OPC-Hadera had invested an aggregate of NIS 846 million (approximately \$237 million) in the construction of the OPC-Hadera power plant and related infrastructure.

OPC management expects the commercial operation date of the OPC-Hadera plant to be in the fourth quarter of 2019 - this takes into account delays that occurred during the plant's construction, including the timetable for replacement of a faulty component discovered during performance of the construction work. In July 2019, the Minister of National Infrastructures, Energy and Water approved the postponement of the milestone date for the commercial operation stated in OPC-Hadera's conditional license to March 2020, and OPC-Hadera's lenders agreed to extend the commercial operation date in the OPC-Hadera loan agreement to the end of March 2020. OPC management expects that a portion of the costs and lost profits deriving from the delay will be covered by OPC-Hadera's insurance policy. In addition, OPC-Hadera is entitled to compensation from the EPC contractor pursuant to the construction agreement in respect of delay of the operation date. As a result, OPC management does not expect the delay will result in a change to the estimated construction cost of the Hadera Power Plant.

Update on Tzomet Project

Tzomet Energy Ltd. ("Tzomet") is developing an open-cycle natural gas-fired power station with capacity of approximately 396 MW in Israel. In April 2019, Tzomet was granted a conditional licence for construction of the power plant. The licence is conditional on compliance with various milestones including reaching commercial operation within 66 months from the date of the conditional license. Additional approvals are required for the project to reach financial closing, including securing grid connection and construction permits. According to the relevant regulation, the Tzomet project is required to reach financial closing by January 1, 2020.

Issuance of new shares in private placement

In June 2019, OPC issued 5,179,147 new ordinary shares (representing approximately 3.71% of OPC's issued and outstanding share capital at the time on a fully diluted basis) at a price of NIS 23.17 per share, for total cash consideration of approximately NIS 120 million (approximately \$33 million). OPC indicated that the proceeds of the sale are expected to be used for general corporate purposes. Following the sale, Kenon's interest in OPC decreased from 75.8% to 73.0% (71.8% on a fully diluted basis).

In September 2019, OPC issued 5,849,093 new ordinary shares (representing approximately 4.02% of OPC's issued and outstanding share capital at the time on a fully diluted basis) at a price of NIS 26.50 per share, for total cash consideration of approximately NIS 155 million (approximately \$44 million). OPC indicated the proceeds of the sale are expected to be used for general corporate purposes. Following the sale, Kenon's interest in OPC decreased from 73.0% to 69.9% (68.7% on a fully diluted basis).

Qoros2

Agreement to sell 12% of Qoros

As previously reported, in January 2019, Kenon entered into an agreement to sell half (12%) of its remaining interest (24%) in Qoros to the majority shareholder in Qoros for a purchase price of RMB1,560 million (approximately \$220 million). The sale is subject to obtaining relevant third party consents and other closing conditions, including approvals by relevant government authorities. The parties are continuing the process of seeking these consents and approvals. Following completion of the sale, Kenon will hold a 12% interest in Qoros, the majority shareholder in Qoros will hold 63% and Chery Automobile Co. Ltd. will own 25%.

Qoros Sales

Qoros sold approximately 6,500 cars in Q2 2019, primarily reflecting orders from a leasing company introduced by Qoros majority shareholder.

ZIM

Discussion of ZIM's Results for Q2 2019

ZIM's revenue increased by 4% in Q2 2019 to \$834 million, as compared to \$803 million in Q2 2018. ZIM carried approximately 731 thousand TEUs in Q2 2019, representing a 5% decrease as compared to Q2 2018, in which ZIM carried approximately 772 thousand TEUs. The average freight rate per TEU in Q2 2019 was \$993 per TEU, as compared to \$907 per TEU in Q2 2018, representing a 9% increase. ZIM's operating expenses decreased by 5% to \$719 million in Q2 2019, as compared to \$757 million in Q2 2018, primarily as a result of (i) a \$37 million decrease in bunker expenses and (ii) a \$22 million decrease in port expenses. This was offset by (i) a \$24 million increase in lease expense of vessels, slots and containers (including a \$36 million decrease related to the implementation of IFRS 16) and (ii) a \$6 million increase in cargo handling expenses.

Additional Kenon Updates

Favorable Ruling in Arbitration Proceeding

Kenon's subsidiary received a favourable ruling in July 2019 of \$30 million, plus pre-award interest, in a commercial arbitration proceeding related to rights retained by that subsidiary following the sale of the Inkia businesses. The award, which remains to be paid, is subject to tax. The arbitration related to a dispute over an insurance claim. The proceeding is described in more detail in Kenon's annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2018

Kenon's (Unconsolidated) Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2019, Kenon's unconsolidated cash balance was \$30 million. There is no material debt at the Kenon level. Kenon's unconsolidated cash declined by approximately \$5 million in Q2 2019 primarily as a result of certain final tax payments relating to the sale of the Inkia power business, together with legal expenses relating to certain claims and proceedings retained by Kenon after the sale of the Inkia power business, partially offset by the receipt of dividends from OPC.

Kenon is the beneficiary of a four-year deferred payment agreement, effective December 28, 2017, reflecting deferred consideration from the sale of its Inkia power businesses, accruing 8% interest, payable in kind (total payable as at June 30, 2019 including principal and accrued interest is \$197 million). The deferred payment is subject to tax.

2 Convenience translations of RMB amounts into US Dollars use a rate of 7.10: 1.

Definition of OPC's EBITDA and non-IFRS reconciliation

This press release, including the financial tables, presents EBITDA, which is considered to be a "non-IFRS financial measure."

OPC defines "EBITDA" as for each period as net profit before depreciation and amortization, financing expenses, net, and income tax expense. EBITDA is not recognized under IFRS or any other generally accepted accounting principles 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 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 EBITDA as a measure 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, depreciation, capital expenses and other related items.

OPC believes that the disclosure of EBITDA provides transparent and useful information to investors and financial analysts in their review of the company's, or its subsidiaries' 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 EBITDA for the periods presented. Other companies may calculate EBITDA differently, and therefore this presentation of EBITDA may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies.
