Ellomay Capital Reports Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2019

Tel-Aviv, Israel, December 31, 2019 – Ellomay Capital Ltd. (NYSE American; TASE: ELLO) ("Ellomay" or the "Company"), a renewable energy and power generator and developer of renewable energy and power projects in Europe and Israel, today reported its unaudited financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Ran Fridrich, CEO and a board member of Ellomay commented: "During the nine month period ended September 30, 2019 the Company operated in accordance with its business plan, while executing an extensive development and investment plan. Project development expenses increased by approximately 32% compared to the same period last year. Equity attributed to shareholders of the Company increased by approximately 26% during the period. The Talasol project (300 MW) in Spain is progressing according to plan and construction of more than 50% was already completed. The project is currently expected to commence commercial operation in Q4 of 2020. In addition, the Company is promoting the development of 550 MW PV in Spain and Italy".

Financial Highlights

  • Revenues were approximately €15.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to approximately €13.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in revenues is mainly a result of the commencement of operations of the Company's waste-to-energy project in Oude Tonge, the Netherlands, in June 2018 and relatively higher levels of radiation in Italy during 2019 compared to 2018.
  • Operating expenses were approximately €5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to approximately €4.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in operating expenses is mainly attributable to additional operating expenses resulting from the commencement of operations at the Company's waste-to-energy project in Oude Tonge, the Netherlands. Depreciation expenses were approximately €4.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to approximately €4.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
  • Project development costs were approximately €3.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to approximately €2.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in project development costs is mainly attributable to consultancy expenses in connection with the project to construct a 156 MW pumped storage hydro power plant in the Manara Cliff, Israel.
  • General and administrative expenses were approximately €2.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to approximately €2.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
  • Company's share of profits of equity accounted investee, after elimination of intercompany transactions, was approximately €2.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to approximately €2.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
  • Financing expenses, net was approximately €4.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to approximately €1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The increase in financing expenses was mainly due to expenses in connection with exchange rate differences amounting to approximately €2.1 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, mainly in connection with the Company's NIS denominated Debentures, the loan to an equity accounted investee and cash and cash equivalents, caused by the 11.3% devaluation of the euro against the NIS during this period, compared to income in connection with exchange rate differences amounting to approximately €0.5 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2018, caused by the 1.5% revaluation of the euro against the NIS during this period.
  • Taxes on income was approximately €0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to taxes on income of approximately €0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The lower taxes on income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 resulted mainly from deferred tax income included in connection with the application of a tax incentive in the Netherlands claimable upon filing the relevant tax return by reducing the amount of taxable profit.
  • Net loss was approximately €3.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to approximately €0.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
  • Total other comprehensive income was approximately €13.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to a loss of approximately €0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The change was mainly due to changes in fair value of cash flow hedges and from foreign currency translation differences on New Israeli Shekel denominated operations, as a result of fluctuations in the euro/NIS exchange rates.
  • Total comprehensive income was approximately €10 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to a loss of approximately €0.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
  • EBITDA was approximately €6.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to approximately €6.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
  • Net cash from operating activities was approximately €4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to approximately €4.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.
  • On July 17, 2019, the Company issued 800,000 ordinary shares to several Israeli classified investors in a private placement. The price per share in the Private Placement was set at NIS 39.20 (approximately \$11) and the gross proceeds to the Company were approximately NIS 31.3 million (approximately €7.8 million).
  • On July 25, 2019, the Company issued NIS 89,065,000 (approximately €22.7 million) Series C Debentures in a public offering in Israel at a fixed annual interest rate of 3.3%. The net proceeds of the offering, net of related expenses such as consultancy fee and commissions were approximately NIS 87.8 million (approximately €22.3 million).
  • During July 2019, the Company completed the purchase of 49% of the companies that own the anaerobic digestion plans in Goor and Oude-Tonge, both in the Netherlands from Ludan and several entities affiliated with Ludan for an acquisition price of approximately €3 million.
  • On December 16, 2019, the Company announced its intention to redeem the entire outstanding principal of the Company's Series A Debentures. The redemption is scheduled for January 5, 2020. Pursuant to the terms of the deed of trust governing the Series A Debentures, the early redemption amount will be the sum of approximately NIS 80.1 million (approximately €20.7 million) in principal, the sum of approximately NIS 0.05 million (approximately €0.01 million) in accrued interest and a prepayment charge of approximately NIS 5.7 million (approximately €1.5 million), amounting to an aggregate redemption amount of approximately NIS 85.9 million (approximately €22.2 million, based on the exchange rate as of December 30, 2019).
  • On December 23, 2019, the Company reported the sale of ten Italian indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries (the "Italian Subsidiaries"), which own twelve photovoltaic plants with an aggregate nominal capacity of approximately 22.6 MW. The agreed purchase price was €41 million for the cutoff date of December 31, 2018 and adjusted in connection with funds received by the Company from the Italian Subsidiaries during 2019 (approximately €2.3 million), resulting in a cash purchase price of approximately €38.7 million. Based on the information currently available, the Company estimates that it will record a profit of approximately €19 million in connection with the sale of the Italian Subsidiaries in its financial results for the fourth quarter of 2019. The profit currently expected to be recorded is an unaudited and unreviewed estimate and the actual results may be different from this estimation. The financial results of the Company included in this release do not reflect the sale of the Italian Subsidiaries and therefore are not indicative of future results of the Company.
  • As of December 1, 2019, the Company held approximately €59.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, approximately €6.5 million in Short-term deposits, approximately €2.3 million in marketable securities and approximately €11.2 million in restricted short-term and long-term cash and marketable securities.

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 similarly-titled 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.

As of September 30, 2019, the Company's Net Financial Debt (as such term is defined in the Deeds of Trust of the Company's Debentures) was approximately €43.8 million (consisting of approximately €135.4 million of short-term and long-term debt from banks and other interest bearing financial obligations and approximately €76.5 million in connection with the Series A Debentures issuances (in January and September 2014), the Series B Debentures issuance (in March 2017) and the Series C Debentures issuance (in July 2019), net of approximately €79.7 million of cash and cash equivalents, short-term deposits and marketable securities and net of approximately €88.7 million of project finance and related hedging transactions of the Company's subsidiaries).

Information for the Company's Series B Debenture Holders

The following is an internal pro forma consolidated statement of financial position of the Company as at September 30, 2019.

Information for the Company's Series C Debenture Holders

_____________________________

The Deed of Trust governing the Company's Series C Debentures includes an undertaking by the Company to maintain certain financial covenants, whereby a breach of such financial covenants for two consecutive quarters is a cause for immediate repayment. As of September 30, 2019, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in the Series C Deed of Trust as follows: (i) the Company's shareholders' equity was €106.5 million, (ii) the ratio of the Company's Net Financial Debt (as set forth above) to the Company's CAP, Net (defined as the Company's consolidated shareholders' equity plus the Net Financial Debt was 29% and (iii) the ratio of the Company's Net Financial Debt to the Company's Adjusted EBITDA(1) was 3.7.

(1) The term "Adjusted EBITDA" is defined in the Series C Deed of Trust as earnings before financial expenses, net, taxes, depreciation and amortization, where the revenues from the Company's operations, such as the Talmei Yosef project, are calculated based on the fixed asset model and not based on the financial asset model (IFRIC 12), and before share-based payments. The Series C Deed of Trust provides that for purposes of the financial covenant, the Adjusted EBITDA will be calculated based on the four preceding quarters, in the aggregate. The Adjusted EBITDA is presented in this press release as part of the Company's undertakings towards the holders of its Series C Debentures. For a general discussion of the use of non-IFRS measures, such as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA see above under "Use of NON-IFRS Financial Measures."

The following is a reconciliation between the Company's net profit (loss) and the Adjusted EBITDA for the four-quarter period ended September 30, 2019:
