Assumptions and Notes to the cash flow forecast
-
- The cash flow forecast has been jointly prepared for Kardan NV (company-only) and its wholly owned subsidiaries GTC Real Estate Holding BV and Emerging Investments XII BV, as the treasury of these companies is centralized. With respect to limitations regarding the transfer of funds between Kardan NV and GTC RE please see under point 9 below.
-
- The cash flow forecast was prepared based on the provisions of the Amended Deeds of Trust which became effective on July 3, 2015 (the 'Deeds of Trust').
-
- The forecasted General and administration expenses are based on estimates of the Company according to its past experience.
-
- With respect to sale of assets in 2017 and 2018 the Company is conducting processes, directly or through its subsidiaries, to sell any of its assets in order to be able to complete February 2018debenture repayment. These assets may include the subsidiaries Kardan Land China and/or Tahal Group International B.V. and/or part of their assets.
-
- In this cash flow forecast, cash provided from the sale of assets in 2017 and 2018 will be used to repay principal and interest of the debentures which are due in February 2018 and 2019, respectively, in accordance with the Deeds of Trust. Should the Company obtain funds prior to the expected repayment dates, the Company will make early repayments, as required in the Deeds of Trust.
-
- The amount of Management fees from investee companies is based on existing agreements between the Company and its subsidiaries as of the balance sheet date.
-
- The interest calculations are based on Israeli CPI, exchange rates and interest rates which are applicable as of March 31, 2017. The principal and interest payments for the debentures are presented on the net outstanding balance, excluding the debentures held by GTC RE and Emerging Investment XII BV. A change of 5% in the Euro/NIS rate will lead to a change of approximately € 6 million in the amount of principal and interest payment in each of the years 2018 and 2019.
-
- The cash flow forecast does not include any additional investments which the Company will make once those will be approved by the appropriate bodies in the Company. As of the date of approval of these financial statements, the Company did not resolve to make any new investments. In addition, according to the Amended Deeds of Trust there are limitations on new investments.
Transfer of funds between Kardan NV, GTC RE, Emerging Investments XII, TGI and KFS is mostly done through intercompany loans or distribution of dividend or capital reserves as permitted by Dutch
- law. Breakdown of distributable reserves according to Dutch law and intercompany loans balances is as follows: Subsidiary Distributable reserves (EUR million) as of 31.3.17 Intercompany loan (EUR million) as of 31.3.17 TGI 35.5 - GTC RE 181.5 (12.2) KFS 23.0 -
Emerging 52.3 -
- This estimate is forward looking information as defined in the Israeli Securities Act, based on management assumptions and expectations. The aforesaid may not materialize completely or part thereof, or materialize in a different manner, including materially different from what is expected as a result of changes in the state of the market, difficulties in raising credit, decrease in value of investments and change in cash amounts expected to be received from affiliated companies.

KARDAN N.V., AMSTERDAM NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS March 31, 2017
1. Corporate information
Kardan N.V. ('Kardan' or 'the Company') having its legal seat in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, was incorporated on May 2, 2003, and acts as an operating holding company which is engaged in the development of real estate and (water) infrastructure projects (discontinued operations, see Note 3B), through its subsidiaries, joint ventures and associated companies.
The Company and its subsidiaries are referred to as 'the Group'.
These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors on May 23, 2017.
2. Financial Position and Going Concern
As at March 31, 2017 the Company had, on a stand-alone basis and on a consolidated basis, a working capital deficit of €107 million and €117 million, respectively (excluding debentures held by subsidiaries).
In 2016 the Company completed the sale of TBIF and the sale of the remaining 25% in KWIG. The Company early repaid in full the principal amount of the debentures that was payable in February 2017 using the proceeds from these transactions. The remaining interest of approximately €4 million was paid in February 2017. The next debenture repayment is in February 2018 and amounts to €121 million as at March 31, 2017.
Management prepared a two year liquidity analysis as part of its normal course of business which addresses the required liquidity to be able to repay interest and principal of the Company's debentures and all other liabilities in the year 2017 and onwards and to finance its operating activities. Included in this analysis are, among others, the current cash balances and the projected cash from future operations and transactions. The Company is currently conducting processes, directly or through its subsidiaries, and negotiating transactions to sell assets and refinancing of loans with a number of prominent parties which, it is confident will generate adequate resources to meet future liabilities in the next 12 months, as well as strengthening its financial position. These assets may include the subsidiaries KLC and/or TGI and/or part of their assets. In that respect, refer to Note 3B regarding the classification of TGI as held for sale.
The directors are confident that, taking into account their plans to realize the transactions and the progress which has been made in that respect, the Company has the ability to obtain the required resources for repaying its obligations and continue its business operations in the future. Accordingly, the directors are satisfied that it is appropriate to prepare these condensed interim consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis.
However, the directors are aware that the realization of the Company's plans depends on factors that are not wholly within the Company's control, and therefore there is uncertainty that such transactions will be completed or will generate sufficient resources to meet its liabilities according to their contractual maturities. According to established guidelines, these conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which casts significant doubt regarding the Company's ability to repay its liabilities when they become due and its ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that would result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
3. Basis of presentation and preparation
A. General
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements as at March 31, 2017 have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 as defined by the International Accounting Standards Board and as endorsed by the European Union to be used for the preparation of interim consolidated financial statements.
The condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual financial statements as at December 31, 2016.
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016.
B. Segment information
Further to Note 2 above, due to the various processes conducted by the Company, as of March 31, 2017 the terms of classifying the investment in TGI (Tahal Group International B.V., - Kardan's water infrastructure company) as Held-For-Sale and its results as discontinued operations, in accordance with IFRS 5, were met.
Accordingly, as of March 31, 2017 the Company's sole operating segment is real estate Asia. Therefore, these financial statements do not include further disclosure regarding operating segments, as the Company's operating results solely consist of its real estate activities. For the financial results of TGI, refer to Note 7.

Review report
To: the shareholders of Kardan N.V.
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying condensed interim consolidated financial information of Kardan N.V., Amsterdam, which comprises the condensed interim consolidated statement of financial position as at 31 March 2017, the condensed interim consolidated income statement, the condensed interim consolidated statement of comprehensive income, the condensed interim consolidated statement of changes in equity, the condensed interim consolidated statement of cash flows and the selected explanatory notes for the three months period then ended. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this (condensed) interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting' as adopted by the European Union. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.
Scope
We conducted our review in accordance with Dutch law including standard 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the company. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed interim consolidated interim financial information as at 31 March 2017 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting' as adopted by the European Union.
Material uncertainty related to going concern
We draw attention to the financial position and going concern paragraph in note 2 of the condensed interim consolidated financial information, which indicates that the Company is currently negotiating transactions (sale of assets and refinancing of loans) with a number of prominent parties which it is confident will generate adequate resources to meet future liabilities in the next 12 months. The realization of the Company's plans depends on factors that are not wholly within the Company's control. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which casts significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
1. General
This condensed interim separate financial information is presented in accordance to rule 38(D) of the Israeli Securities and Exchange Regulations (periodic and immediate reports), 1970.
This condensed interim separate financial information should be read in conjunction with the additional separate financial information for the year ended December 31, 2016 and the accompanying notes, and in conjunction to the condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2017.
2. Financial position and going concern
As at March 31, 2017 the Company had, on a stand-alone basis and on a consolidated basis, a working capital deficit of €107 million and €117 million, respectively (excluding debentures held by subsidiaries).
In 2016 the Company completed the sale of TBIF and the sale of the remaining 25% in KWIG. The Company early repaid in full the principal amount of the debentures that was payable in February 2017 using the proceeds from these transactions. The remaining interest of approximately €4 million was paid in February 2017. The next debenture repayment is in February 2018 and currently amounts to €121 million.
Management prepared a two year liquidity analysis as part of its normal course of business which addresses the required liquidity to be able to repay interest and principal of the Company's debentures and all other liabilities in the year 2017 and onwards and to finance its operating activities. Included in this analysis are, among others, the current cash balances and the projected cash from future operations and transactions. The Company is currently conducting processes, directly or through its subsidiaries, and negotiating transactions to sale assets and refinancing of loans with a number of prominent parties which, it is confident will generate adequate resources to meet future liabilities in the next 12 months, as well as strengthening its financial position. These as assets may include the subsidiaries KLC and/or TGI and/or part of their assets. In that respect, refer to Note 3B regarding the classification of TGI as held for sale.
The directors are confident that, taking into account their plans to realize the transactions and the progress which has been made in that respect, the Company has the ability to obtain the required resources for repaying its obligations and continue its business operations in the future. Accordingly, the directors are satisfied that it is appropriate to prepare these condensed interim consolidated financial statements on a going concern basis.
However, the directors are aware that the realization of the Company's plans depends on factors that are not wholly within the Company's control, and therefore there is uncertainty that such transactions will be completed or will generate sufficient resources to meet its liabilities according to their contractual maturities. According to established guidelines, these conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which casts significant doubt regarding the Company's ability to repay its liabilities when they become due and its ability to continue as a going concern.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that would result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
