Significant highlights for the fourth quarter

• Flame retardants: Bromine-based sales decreased year-over-year while phosphorus -based sales increased year-over-year, with higher volumes, mainly in Europe, due to the implementation of duties on imports of tris (2-chloro-1-methylethyl) phosphate (TCPP) from China.

• Elemental bromine: Sales were nearly flat year-over-year, as operational efficiencies allowed higher gross margins.

• Clear brine fluids: Sales decreased year-over-year, as oil and gas demand in the Eastern Hemisphere remained softer, due to the drilling cycle operations, resulting in lower volumes sold.

• Specialty minerals: Sales increased slightly year-over-year, due to growth in demand from the pharma and food end-markets, which was partially offset by lower demand for certain industrial applications.

(1) In alignment with the Company’s efficiency plan, which included a change of reporting responsibilities, as of January 2024, the results of a non-phosphate related business were allocated from the Phosphate Solutions segment to Other Activities. Comparative figures have been restated to reflect the organizational change in the reportable segments.

(2) For Q4 2024, Phosphate Specialties accounted for $309 million of segment sales, $44 million of operating income, $13 million of D&A and $57 million of EBITDA, while Phosphate Commodities accounted for $198 million of segment sales, $37 million of operating income, $38 million of D&A and represented $75 million of EBITDA.

Significant highlights for the fourth quarter

• White phosphoric acid: Sales decreased year-over-year, as higher volumes mainly in South America were unable to offset lower prices in all regions.

• Industrial phosphates: Sales decreased year-over-year, as higher volumes in all major regions did not offset lower prices related to decreasing cost input prices.

• Food phosphates: Sales were nearly flat year-over-year, as higher volumes were offset by lower market prices, mainly in North America, due to reduced raw material costs.

• Battery materials: Sales in Asia increased year-over-year, as market demand expanded. Elsewhere, the Battery Materials Innovation and Qualification Center (BM-IQ) in St. Louis is nearing completion, which will allow ICL to begin qualifying battery material products for customers.

In January 2025, the Company signed a strategic agreement with Shenzhen Dynanonic Co., Ltd. to establish LFP production in Europe. The new facility is planned to be located at ICL's Sallent site in Spain and could substantially expand the Company’s battery materials business.

• Commodity phosphates: Overall phosphate prices remained stable in the fourth quarter of 2024, as key markets – including India – continued to experience a shortage of DAP and export availability from China remained limited. Key benchmarks were on average 3% higher quarter-over-quarter.

ICL Group Limited Q4 2024 Results 9

• Developments in key markets are described below:

  • Chinese DAP export prices ended 2024 at $615/mt, $30 above 2023 prices, as the country’s trade policy continued to be a key determinant of global pricing levels. Offshore shipments were paused late in the fourth quarter and, at the time of writing, Chinese DAP/MAP exports for 2024 were estimated at 6 to 7 million mt – the second lowest amount over the past five years.

  • India's DAP price was estimated at $634/mt CFR at the end of 2024 – only $6 lower than at the beginning of the fourth quarter, defying traditionally lower demand in the Northern Hemisphere. India imported fewer than 5 million mt of DAP and ended the year with fewer than 1 million mt of stock versus average annual imports of 6 million mt and an average end-of-year stock above 2 million mt between 2019 and 2023.

  • Phosphate demand in the US was firm throughout 2024. Provisional data places fourth quarter arrivals at around 500 thousand mt, consistent with the five-year average. Imports have been supported by attractive farmer margins during recent years and the subsequent maximization of planted acreage. Additionally, local phosphate production has faced various operational challenges. Recent hurricanes not only interrupted production but also resulted in stock loss. DAP FOB NOLA ended the fourth quarter at $637/mt, $25/mt higher than the beginning of the quarter.

  • Brazilian MAP/NPS imports accelerated in the third quarter of 2024 and remained firm through the fourth quarter, due to the planting of the Safra soy crop. Weather conditions improved consistently through October and November, enabling planting to progress rapidly and supporting last minute fertilizer demand. The Brazilian MAP price ended the fourth quarter at $635/mt CFR, flat compared to the previous quarter.

• Indian phosphoric acid prices are negotiated on a quarterly basis. The fourth quarter price was settled at $1,060/mt P 2 O 5 , $110 higher than the third quarter. For the first quarter of 2025, the price was settled at $1,055/mt, reflecting a slight decrease in DAP prices.

• Sulphur FOB Middle East ended the fourth quarter at $165/mt, $38 higher than prevailing levels at the end of the third quarter. The increase was driven by strong demand from key end-users, including Morocco, where a new sulphur burner was ramping up, and, to a lesser extent, continued tightening of supply.

Significant highlights for the fourth quarter

Regional highlights:

• Brazil: Sales decreased year-over-year, mainly due to exchange rate fluctuations, as lower raw material costs drove higher gross profit.

• Europe: Sales decreased year-over-year as higher selling prices were unable to offset lower sales volumes. However, lower raw material costs drove higher gross profit.

• North America: Sales increased year-over-year due to higher volumes and higher prices, which contributed to an increase in gross profit.

• Asia: Sales decreased year-over-year, as higher prices were unable to offset lower volumes. However, improved product mix drove higher gross profit.

Product highlights:

• Specialty agriculture (SA): Sales decreased year-over-year, due to exchange rate fluctuations and lower sales volumes, mainly in Brazil, which were partially offset by higher sales volumes and selling prices in the US and India.

• Turf and ornamental (T&O): Sales increased year-over-year, primarily due to higher sales of ornamental horticulture, driven by increased demand for CRFs in Europe.

In December 2024, the segment completed its acquisition of GreenBest, a UK-based manufacturer of specialty fertilizers and tailored solutions. The acquisition strengthens the Company’s position in the turf and landscape sector and enhances its presence in the UK market, where GreenBest's expertise in custom manufacturing capabilities complements the Company’s existing portfolio.

• FertilizerpluS: Sales decreased year-over-year, driven primarily by lower sales volumes, mainly in Europe and China, which were partially offset by higher sales volumes in the US.

We disclose in this quarterly report non-IFRS financial measures titled adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders, diluted adjusted earnings per share, and adjusted EBITDA. Our management uses adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders, diluted adjusted earnings per share, and adjusted EBITDA to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period. We calculate our adjusted operating income by adjusting our operating income to add certain items, as set forth in the reconciliation table under “Adjustments to reported operating, and net income (non-GAAP)” below. Certain of these items may recur. We calculate our adjusted net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders by adjusting our net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders to add certain items, as set forth in the reconciliation table under “Adjustments to reported operating, and net income (non-GAAP)” below, excluding the total tax impact of such adjustments. We calculate our diluted adjusted earnings per share by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted-average number of diluted ordinary shares outstanding. Our adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income before financing expenses, net, taxes on income, share in earnings of equity-accounted investees, depreciation and amortization, and certain adjustments presented in the reconciliation table under “Consolidated adjusted EBITDA, and diluted adjusted Earnings Per Share for the periods of activity” below, which were adjusted for in calculating the adjusted operating income.

You should not view adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders, diluted adjusted earnings per share or adjusted EBITDA as a substitute for operating income or net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders determined in accordance with IFRS, and you should note that our definitions of adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders, diluted adjusted earnings per share, and adjusted EBITDA may differ from those used by other companies. Additionally, other companies may use other measures to evaluate their performance, which may reduce the usefulness of our non-IFRS financial measures as tools for comparison. However, we believe adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the Company’s shareholders, diluted adjusted earnings per share, and adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to both management, and investors by excluding certain items that management believes are not indicative of our ongoing operations. Our management uses these non-IFRS measures to evaluate the Company's business strategies and management performance. We believe that these non IFRS measures provide useful information to investors because they improve the comparability of our financial results between periods and provide for greater transparency of key measures used to evaluate our performance.

(1a) The Company only provides guidance on a non-GAAP basis. The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) to GAAP net income (loss), due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting, and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, in particular, because special items such as restructuring, litigation, and other matters, used to calculate projected net income (loss) vary dramatically based on actual events, the Company is not able to forecast on a GAAP basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide a GAAP calculation of projected net income (loss) at this time. The amount of these deductions may be material, and therefore could result in projected GAAP net income (loss) being materially less than projected adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP). The guidance speaks only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this news release or to reflect actual outcomes, unless required by law. The Company provides guidance for Specialties-driven EBITDA, which includes Industrial Products, Growing Solutions and Phosphate Solutions, as the Phosphate Solutions business is now predominantly specialties-focused. For our Potash business we provide sales volumes guidance. The Company believes this information provides greater transparency, as these new metrics are less impacted by fertilizer commodity prices, given the extreme volatility in recent years.

We present a discussion in the period-to-period comparisons of the primary drivers of change in the Company’s results of operations. This discussion is based in part on management’s best estimates of the impact of the main trends on our businesses. We have based the following discussion on our financial statements. You should read such discussion together with our financial statements.

  • See "Adjustments to reported Operating and Net income (non-GAAP)" above.

  • Quantity – The positive impact on operating income was primarily due to higher sales volumes of potash, magnesium, MAP used as a raw material for energy storage solutions , and phosphate-based food additives. These were partially offset by lower sales volumes of specialty agriculture products.

  • Price – The negative impact on operating income was primarily related to a decrease of $60 in the potash price (CIF) per tonne year-over-year, as well as lower selling prices of white phosphoric acid (WPA) and phosphate-based food additives. These were partially offset by higher selling prices of specialty agriculture products and phosphate fertilizers.

  • Exchange rates – The unfavorable impact on operating income was mainly due to a negative impact on sales resulting from the depreciation of the average exchange rate of the Brazilian real against the US dollar, which slightly exceeded its positive impact on operational costs.

  • Raw materials – The positive impact on operating income was due to the lower cost of commodity fertilizers and raw materials used in the production of industrial solutions products, ammonia and nitrogen . This impact was partially offset by higher costs for sulphur .

  • Transportation – The positive impact on operating income resulted from lower inland and marine transportation costs.

  • Operating and other expenses - The negative impact on operating income was primarily related to higher maintenance and operational costs, which was partially offset by operational efficiencies, mainly in the Industrial Products segment.

Security situation in Israel

In October 2023, the Israeli government declared a state of war in response to attacks on its civilians in the south of the country, which escalated to other areas. The security situation has presented several challenges, including disruptions in supply chains and shipping routes, personnel shortages due to recurring rounds of mobilization for reserve duty, additional costs to protect Company sites/assets, effects of reluctance to perform contractual obligations in Israel during hostilities, various bans and limitations on trade and cooperation with Israel related entities, and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates relative to the Israeli shekel. Additionally, regional tensions involving Houthis attacks and threats to commercial vessels have intensified, disrupting shipping routes and commercial shipping arrangements, leading to increased shipping costs.

The Company continues to take measures to ensure the safety of its employees and business partners, as well as the communities in which it operates. It has also implemented supportive measures to accommodate employees called for reserve duty, aiming to minimize any potential impact on its business, and to avoid disruptions to production activities at its facilities in Israel.

The security situation in the last year has not had a material impact on the Company's business results. However, as the developments related to the war, as well as its duration, are unpredictable, the Company is unable to estimate the extent of the war’s potential impact on its future business and results. The Company continuously monitors developments and will take all necessary actions to minimize any negative consequences to its operations and assets.
