If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.
As previously reported, the Registrant expects to report a loss attributable to shareholders of approximately NIS 730-760 million (approximately \$195-203 million) for the year ended December 31, 2018 compared with NIS 15 million in 2017. The loss in 2018 was mainly due to the one-time net impairment charges relating to DBS in the amount of NIS 1.5 billion (\$400 million) and a NIS 560 million (\$150 million) provision for costs associated with the early retirement of Bezeq Fixed-Line employees. In addition, B Communications had impairment charges of approximately NIS 610-660 million (\$160-180 million) with respect to its carrying value of Pelephone and Bezeq International.
As previously reported, the Israeli Securities Authority, or the ISA, investigated Bezeq - The Israel Telecommunication Corp. Ltd., or Bezeq, a subsidiary of B Communications Ltd., itself a subsidiary of the Registrant, and several of Bezeq's officers and directors with respect to certain alleged criminal offenses. The Registrant's auditors are expected to issue a "qualified opinion" on the Registrant's financial statements because of the inability to obtain sufficient supporting evidence as to the effect, if any, of the investigation proceedings on the consolidated financial statements and "going concern" emphasis of matter. Furthermore, the Registrant's auditors are expected to issue a "disclaimer of opinion" on the Registrant's internal controls over financial reporting, or ICFR, based on their inability to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on the effectiveness of the Registrant's ICFR as a result of the investigation.
