Ellomay Capital Reports Results for the Fourth Quarter and Full Year of 2016

Tel-Aviv, Israel, March 31, 2017 – Ellomay Capital Ltd. (NYSE MKT; TASE: ELLO) ("Ellomay" or the "Company"), an emerging operator in the renewable energy and energy infrastructure sector, today reported its financial results for the year and fourth quarter ended December 31, 2016.

Financial Highlights

  • · Revenues were approximately \$12.9 million (€11.6 million) for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to approximately \$13.8 million (€12.5 million) for the year ended December 31, 2015. The decrease in revenues is mainly a result of relatively lower electricity spot prices and radiation levels during the year ended December 31, 2016 compared to the year ended December 31, 2015, which was characterized by relatively high levels of radiation.
  • · Operating expenses were approximately \$2.3 million (€2.1 million) for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to approximately \$2.9 million (€2.6 million) for the year ended December 31, 2015. The decrease in operating expenses is mainly attributable to the reduction of municipal taxes paid by the Company's Italian subsidiaries as a result of legislation adopted in 2016. Depreciation expenses were approximately \$4.9 million (€4.4 million) for both the year ended December 31, 2016 and the year ended December 31, 2015.
  • · General and administrative expenses were approximately \$4.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to approximately \$3.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. The increase is mainly due to (i) expenses in connection with consulting services with respect to potential acquisitions and (ii) capital expenditures in the amount of \$1.8 million in connection with the Manara Project, recorded in the general and administrative expenses. These amounts were partially offset by a decrease in salaries and related compensation costs following the termination of employment of one of the Company's senior employees in October 2015.
  • · Share of profits of equity accounted investee, after elimination of intercompany transactions, was approximately \$1.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to approximately \$2.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2015. The decrease was mainly due to an update of the deferred taxes of Dorad resulting from the change in the applicable tax rates, the decrease in the electricity tariffs in February and September 2015, as well as the timing differences between the reduction in the tariffs and the decrease in the price of gas.
  • · Other income, net was approximately \$0.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to approximately \$0.02 million in the year ended December 31, 2015. Other income was primarily attributable to compensation to be received in connection with a pumped storage project in the Gilboa, Israel initially recognized in 2014. The revaluation of such financial asset is recognized as other income for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016.
  • · Financing expenses, net was approximately \$3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to financing income, net of approximately \$0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. The change in financing expenses was mainly due to income derived from the reevaluation of the Company's EUR/USD forward transactions, the Company's currency interest rate swap transactions and the Company's interest rate swap transactions in the aggregate amount of approximately \$3.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to \$0.7 million during the year ended December 31, 2016.
  • · Taxes on income were approximately \$0.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to tax benefit of approximately \$1.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2015. The tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2015 resulted mainly from deferred tax income included in connection with the application of a tax incentive claimable upon filing the relevant tax return by reducing the amount of taxable profit.
  • · Loss for the year was approximately \$1.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to net income of approximately \$7.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2015.
  • · Total other comprehensive loss was approximately \$1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to approximately \$7.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2015. The change was mainly due to presentation currency translation adjustments as a result of fluctuations in the Euro/USD exchange rates. Such loss is a result of the devaluation in the Euro against the U.S. Dollar of approximately 10.4% for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to approximately 3.4% for the year ended December 31, 2016.
  • · Total comprehensive loss was approximately \$2.9 million in the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to income of approximately \$0.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2015.
  • · EBITDA was approximately \$7.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to approximately \$9.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2015.
  • · Net cash from operating activities was approximately \$8.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to \$4.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2015. The increase in net cash from operating activities is mainly attributable to interest payment received on a loan to an equity accounted investee amounting to approximately \$5 million.
  • · As of March 1, 2017, we held approximately \$27.9 million in cash and cash equivalents, approximately \$0.2 million in short-term restricted cash, approximately \$1 million in marketable securities and approximately \$1.9 million in long-term restricted cash.

Ran Fridrich, CEO and a board member of Ellomay commented: "2016 was characterized by intensive project development activities, including the Manara pumped storage project, waste-to-energy projects in the Netherlands and other projects in the photovoltaic field in Israel and Europe. I expect that we will start to see the fruits of these efforts in 2017. We also continued the operational improvements in our PV assets in Italy and Spain and creating a strong cash flow, which services all of our needs with excess cash flow of approximately \$3 million. We raised capital under convenient terms and have the means required to implement the investment plan for the coming year."

Information for the Company's Debenture Holders

As of December 31, 2016, the Company's Net Financial Debt (as such term is defined in the Deeds of Trust of the Company's Debentures) was approximately \$11.7 million (consisting of approximately \$22.6 million of short-term and long-term debt from banks and other interest bearing financial obligations and approximately \$35.5 million in connection with the Series A Debentures issuances (in January and September 2014), net of approximately \$24.7 million of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities and net of approximately \$21.8 million of project finance and related hedging transactions of the Company's subsidiaries). As the Company's Series B Debentures were issued after December 31, 2016, the Net Financial Debt information provided herein does not include the obligations in connection with the Series B Debentures.

Use of NON-IFRS Financial Measures

EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as earnings before financial expenses, net, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company presents this measure in order to enhance the understanding of the Company's historical financial performance and to enable comparability between periods. While the Company considers EBITDA to be an important measure of comparative operating performance, EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other statement of operations or cash flow data prepared in accordance with IFRS as a measure of profitability or liquidity. EBITDA does not take into account the Company's commitments, including capital expenditures, and restricted cash and, accordingly, is not necessarily indicative of amounts that may be available for discretionary uses. Not all companies calculate EBITDA in the same manner, and the measure as presented may not be comparable to similarlytitled measures presented by other companies. The Company's EBITDA may not be indicative of the historic operating results of the Company; nor is it meant to be predictive of potential future results. A reconciliation between results on an IFRS and non-IFRS basis is provided in the last table of this press release.

Photovoltaic Operations: Italy and Spain

The PV Market

• Production of clean energy represents a growing portion of energy production. Today, the majority of the energy supply in the world is still produced using fossil fuels, such as coal, oil and natural gas. The use of these traditional energy sources raises a number of challenges, including price volatility, dependency on import from a limited number of countries as well as environmental concerns. As a result of these and other challengers, governments expand their support of development of alternative energy sources, including solar energy, the fastest growing source of renewable energy.

  • Many countries, including Spain and Italy, adopted plans that offered significant incentives targeted at reducing the burden of the cost of the photovoltaic systems in order to promote the use of solar energy and reduce the dependency on other forms of energy.
  • According to information published online by SolarPower Europe, the new EPIA (European Photovoltaic Industry Association), the solar power market has grown significantly in the past decade. In the first three quarters of 2016, 5.3 GW of photovoltaic systems were installed in Europe (compared to 6.5 GW during the same period in 2015).

Dorad Power Plant, Ashkelon, Israel

The Dorad Power Plant is one of the largest private power plant in Israel, with installed capacity of approximately 850 MW.

The plant is a CCGT bi-fuel plant and powered by natural gas. The Dorad Power Plant is comprised of twelve natural gas turbines, and two steam turbines.

Ellomay indirectly holds approximately 9.4% interest in Dorad.

The cost of the project was approximately US\$ 1.2 billion. The project has secured one of the largest project finance facilities in Israel of over US\$ 1 billion. The financing facility was led by Israel's largest banks and institutional investors.

Electricity is sold directly to endusers and to the national distribution network at competitive rates. The power plant, which was declared a national infrastructure project by the Israeli Prime Minister, was commercially operated and began producing electricity in full capacity in May 2014.

Pumped-Storage Development Project Manara Cliff, Israel

  • Hydro-electric storage system comprised of two water reservoirs (upper and lower), connected through an underground water pressure pipe. Energy is stored by pumping water from lower to upper reservoir and generated by releasing the water back.
  • Sustainable technology working for over 100 years.
  • This technology is an important tool for managing and controlling the national grid and improving its operations. The plants operate using the available capacity and energy method around the world, allowing quick response time (90 sec) and used by the grid dispatcher for utilizing the operational advantages to balance immediate demand and supply related services.

Pumped storage is the most efficient method (known today) for storing electricity in large capacities.

1) Indirectly owned through the project company.

2) In August 2016, Ellomay PS received a conditional license for a pumped storage plant with a capacity of 340 MW, after the initial development stage, including receiving a feasibility survey from IEC, was finalized. In addition, the Editors Committee of the National Outline Plan #10 approved the increase of capacity to 340 MW. Recently, the regional planning committee gave its approval for deposit of the plan for public review. The financial closing of the Manara Project is subject to the availability of a quota for pumped storage plants and the general quota set forth by the Israeli Electricity Authority for pumped-storage projects in Israel is currently set at 800 MW, of which a portion of 500 MW is currently still available.

Waste-to-Energy Projects

Biogas: the combustible product of the anaerobic digestion of different biomass substrates including manure, agro-residues and organic waste.

Green gas: (bio-methane)

is defined as methane produced from biogas with properties close to natural gas that is injected into the natural gas grid.

The Potential of the Dutch Biogas Market

  • The Netherlands produces over 76 million tons of manure per year (source CBS, 2013).
  • Approximately 10% of the market has to be processed due to stringent regulatory requirements ("overmest").
  • Maximum biogas potential is expected to triple between 2020 to 2030 and market demand for Green Gas Certificates is expected to increase.

18

The Netherlands is far from reaching the target determined by the European Union of 20% renewable energy out of all energy sources (by the year 2020).

The Potential of the Dutch Biogas Market

Renewable energy accounts only for ~5% of NL energy sources

Strategic Collaboration with Ludan

  • Pursuant to the agreement with Ludan, subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions (including the financial closing of each project and receipt of a valid Sustainable Energy Production Incentive subsidy from the Dutch authorities and applicable licenses), the Company will acquire at least 51% of each project company and Ludan will own the remaining 49% (each project that meets the conditions is referred to as an "Approved Project").
  • The expected overall cost of the projects is approximately Euro 200 million (including project financing).
  • Each Approved Project is expected to receive a guaranteed payment (subsidy) from the Dutch authorities for the energy it generates for a period of approximately twelve years.

Waste-to-Energy (Biogas) Projects

In 2016 the Company acquired 51% of the rights in a project company developing an anaerobic digestion (AD) plant, with a green gas production capacity of approximately 375 Nm3/h, in Goor, the Netherlands, and the land on which the plant will be constructed. The Company is currently in the process of due diligence of a project company developing an AD plant, with a capacity of approximately 475 Nm3/h, in the Netherlands.

Potential acquisition of a Photovoltaic Plant in Israel

The company is currently in the process of due diligence and negotiations with respect to a proposed acquisition of the shares of an Israeli company that owns through a subsidiary a photovoltaic plant in Israel with a nominal capacity of ~9MWp, that was connected to the Israeli grid in November 2013, or the Israeli PV Plant. The Israeli project company entered into a long-term (20 years) standard power purchase agreement with the IEC, to which it provides all of the energy produced by the Israeli PV Plant. The electricity tariff paid by the IEC is guaranteed for a period of 20 years and is updated once a year based on changes to the Israeli Consumer Price Index (1) .

(1) In the event that the Company executes an agreement to acquire the Israeli PV Plant, such acquisition, among other things, will be conditioned upon receipt of the approval of the Israeli Electricity Authority and the Minister and the amendment of the license

EBITDA

Use of NON-IFRS Financial Measures

EBITDA is a non-IFRS measure and is defined as earnings before financial expenses, net, taxes, depreciation and amortization. The Company presents this measure in order to enhance the understanding of the Company's and Dorad's historical financial performance and to enable comparability between periods. While the Company considers EBITDA to be an important measure of comparative operating performance, EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income or other statement of operations or cash flow data prepared in accordance with IFRS as a measure of profitability or liquidity. EBITDA does not take into account the Company's or Dorad's commitments, including capital expenditures, and restricted cash, accordingly, is not necessarily indicative of amounts that may be available for discretionary uses. Not all companies calculate EBITDA in the same manner, and the measure as presented may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies. The Company's and Dorad's EBITDA may not be indicative of the historic operating results nor is it meant to be predictive of potential future results.
