Tel-Aviv, Israel, Sept. 30, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 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, Israel and the USA, today reported unaudited financial results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2024.
Financial Highlights
| ● | Total assets as of June 30, 2024 amounted to approximately €634.8 million, compared to total assets as of December 31, 2023 of approximately €612.9 million. |
| ● | Revenues1 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 were approximately €11.2 million, compared to revenues of approximately €13.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were approximately €19.5 million, compared to revenues of approximately €25 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. |
| ● | Profit from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was approximately €1.2 million, compared to profit from continuing operations of approximately €1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Loss from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was approximately €3.4 million, compared to profit from continuing operations of approximately €4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. |
| ● | Profit for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was approximately €1.6 million, compared to net profit of approximately €1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was approximately €3.3 million, compared to net profit of approximately €4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. |
| ● | EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was approximately €4.9 million, compared to EBITDA of approximately €5.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was approximately €6.5 million, compared to EBITDA of approximately €9.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. See below under “Use of Non-IFRS Financial Measures” for additional disclosure concerning EBITDA. |
| ● | On December 31, 2023, the Company executed an agreement to sell its holdings in the 9 MW solar plant located in Talmei Yosef. The sale was consummated on June 3, 2024, and the net consideration received at closing was approximately NIS 42.6 million (approximately €10.6 million). In connection with the sale, the Company presents the results of this solar plant as a discontinued operation and the results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 were adjusted accordingly. |
Financial Overview for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024
| ● | Revenues were approximately €19.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €25 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This decrease mainly results from the decrease in electricity prices in Spain. |
| ● | Operating expenses were approximately €9.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €11.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in operating expenses mainly results from a decrease in direct taxes on electricity production paid by the Company’s Spanish subsidiaries as a result of reduced electricity prices. The operating expenses of the Company’s Spanish subsidiaries for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were impacted by the Spanish RDL 17/2022, which established the reduction of returns on the electricity generating activity of Spanish production facilities that do not emit greenhouse gases, accomplished through payments of a portion of the revenues by the production facilities to the Spanish government. Depreciation and amortization expenses were approximately €8.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €7.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. |
| 1 | The revenues presented in the Company’s financial results included in this press release are based on IFRS and do not take into account the adjustments included in the Company’s investor presentation. |
| ● | Project development costs were approximately €2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. |
| ● | General and administrative expenses were approximately €3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in general and administrative expenses is mostly due to higher consultancy expenses. |
| ● | Share of profits of equity accounted investee, after elimination of intercompany transactions, was approximately €1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in share of profits of equity accounted investee was mainly due to an increase in revenues of Dorad Energy Ltd. as a result of higher quantities produced, partially offset by an increase in operating expenses in connection with the increased production. |
| ● | Financing expenses, net was approximately €2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to financing income, net of approximately €1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in financing expenses, net, was mainly attributable to lower income resulting from exchange rate differences that amounted to approximately €1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, an aggregate change of approximately €5.9 million. The exchange rate differences were mainly recorded in connection with the New Israeli Shekel (“NIS”) cash and cash equivalents and The Company’s NIS denominated debentures and were caused by the 0.2% devaluation of the NIS against the euro during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a devaluation of 7.1% during the six months ended June 30, 2023. An additional increase in financing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was due to increased interest expenses mainly resulting from the issuance of the Company’s Series F Debentures in January and April 2024. These increases in financing expenses were partially offset by an increase in financing income of approximately €3.3 million in connection with derivatives and warrants in the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023. |
| ● | Tax benefit was approximately €1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to Tax benefit of approximately €1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. |
| ● | Loss from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was approximately €3.4 million, compared to profit from continuing operations of approximately €4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. |
| ● | Profit from discontinued operation (net of tax) for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was approximately €80 thousand, compared to loss discontinued operation of approximately €3 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023. |
| ● | Loss for the six months ended June 30, 2024, was approximately €3.3 million, compared to a profit of approximately €4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. |
| ● | Total other comprehensive income was approximately €5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to total other comprehensive income of approximately €31.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The change in total other comprehensive income mainly results from changes in fair value of cash flow hedges, including a material decrease in the fair value of the liability resulting from the financial power swap that covers approximately 80% of the output of the Talasol solar plant (the “Talasol PPA”). The Talasol PPA experienced a high volatility due to the substantial change in electricity prices in Europe. In accordance with hedge accounting standards, the changes in the Talasol PPA’s fair value are recorded in the Company’s shareholders’ equity through a hedging reserve and not through the accumulated deficit/retained earnings. The changes do not impact the Company’s consolidated net profit/loss or the Company’s consolidated cash flows. |
| ● | Total comprehensive income was approximately €2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to total comprehensive income of approximately €35.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. |
| ● | EBITDA was approximately 6.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €9.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. See the table on page 13 of this press release for a reconciliation of these numbers to profit and loss. |
2
| ● | Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately €0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €5.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024, is mainly due to the decrease in electricity prices in Spain. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company’s Dutch biogas plants elected to temporarily exit the subsidy regime and sell the gas at market prices and during the year ended December 31, 2024 these plants returned to the subsidy regime. Under the subsidy regime, plants are entitled to monthly advances on subsidies based on the production during the previous year. As no subsidies were paid to the Company’s Dutch biogas plants for 2023, these plants are not entitled to advance payments for 2024 and the payment for gas produced by the plants during 2024 is expected to be received until July 2025. |
CEO Review Second Quarter 2024
Revenues in the first half of 2024 were approximately €19.5 million, compared to revenues of approximately €25 million in the corresponding half last year. The decrease in revenues in an amount of approximately €5.5 million was mainly due to the electricity prices in Spain, which were low and even sometimes negative during the months of March, April and May 2024. During June 2024 the prices started increasing and during July and august 2024 the prices continued to rise sharply.
Operating expenses in the first half of 2024 decreased by approximately €2.3 million compared to the corresponding half last year. Project development expenses in the first half of 2024 increased by approximately €0.1 million compared to the corresponding half last year. Project development expenses for the first half of 2024 included non-recurring expenses of approximately €0.5 million in connection with the cancellation of a guarantee. Excluding such non-recurring expenses, there was a decrease in project development expenses.
Activity in Spain:
In May 2024, the Ellomay Solar project (capacity of 28 MW) reached financial closing of project finance in the amount of €10 million for 16 years at an annual interest rate, fixed through an interest rate swap deal, of approximately 5.5%. After receiving the financing, the majority of the investment in the project was returned.
In the first half of 2024, the Company experienced a trend of a strong decrease in electricity prices in Europe, with the exception of Italy where prices remained stable. The decrease in electricity prices in Spain was approximately 70% compared to the corresponding half in 2023. The most significant decrease was in March, April and May 2024, in which prices decreased by approximately 90% compared to the corresponding months in 2023. The prices picked up in mid-June 2024 and sharply increased in July and August 2024. The main reasons for the decrease in prices in Spain during the first half of 2024 are the relatively warm winter by approximately 6 to 8 degrees (Celsius) above the average on the one hand, and substantial rainfall that caused a sharp increase in hydroelectric power generation on the other hand, when in March alone the power generation from hydro sources jumped from 2,000 GW in the corresponding month in 2023 to 4,700 GW and in April the power generation from hydro sources almost tripled compared to the corresponding month last year. The high output of hydroelectricity also caused a corresponding decrease in the prices of green certificates. A return to normative prices was recorded only in June 2024. In the Company’s estimation this is an unusual event that affected the entire electricity sector in Europe.
Despite the significant drop in electricity prices in Spain, the Company’s revenues from the sale of electricity in Spain for the first half of 2024 did not decrease at the same rate, and stood at approximately €11 million, compared to revenues of approximately €16.2 million in the corresponding half last year. The main reason for the significant drop in electricity prices in Spain not fully impacting the Company’s revenues is that most of the electricity the Company sells in Spain is under a long-term PPA.
Activity of Dorad:
In the first half of 2024, the Dorad power plant recorded an increase in profit, with net profit of approximately NIS 96.3 million, an increase of approximately NIS 21.5 million compared to the corresponding half last year. The Dorad power station received the approval of the National Infrastructures Committee and a positive connection survey to increase the capacity by an additional 650 MW.
Activity in the USA:
In the USA, the development and construction activities of solar projects are progressing at a rapid pace and the construction of the first four projects, with a total capacity of approximately 49 MW, began in early 2024. Completion of construction and connection to the grid of two projects (in an aggregate capacity of approximately 27 MW) is expected by the end of 2024 and of the other two projects (in an aggregate capacity of approximately 22 MW) is expected in early 2025. Additional projects with an aggregate capacity of approximately 30-40 MW are under development and are intended for construction in 2025. The Company executed an agreement to sell the tax credits of the first four projects for approximately $19M.
3
Activity in Italy:
The Company has a portfolio of 462 MW solar projects in Italy of which 20 MW are operating, 18 MW are under construction, 195 MW are ready to build and 229 MW are under advanced development. The construction of a solar project with a capacity of approximately 18 MW (ELLO 10) is expected to be completed in November 2024, this is in addition to solar projects with a capacity of approximately 20 MW that were gradually connected to the grid during February-May 2024. Therefore, the increase in income from the sale of electricity in Italy will be reflected mainly in the second half of 2024. The construction prices of solar projects in Italy are declining from record levels of approximately €900 thousand per MW to approximately €675 thousand as of today, and the trend may continue. The Company is negotiating with the contractor for construction agreements adjusted to the new market prices for 160 MW that are ready to build, and these agreements are expected to be executed by the end of the year.
New legislation in Italy prohibits the establishment of new projects on agricultural land. This prohibition increases the value of the Company’s portfolio, which is not subject to the prohibition or located on agricultural land. The Company estimates that new possibilities are emerging for obtaining a PPA in Italy, therefore it is expected that project financing will be possible more easily and at lower costs.
The Company executed a commitment letter and term sheet with a European institutional investor for a financing transaction for solar projects with an aggregate capacity of approximately 200 MW. The financing is for 23 years at a fixed interest rate. The parties are in the process of due diligence and negotiation on the agreement, and the final financing agreement is expected to be executed by the end of 2024.
Considering these developments, and the decrease in construction costs, the Company believes that its decision to slow down the pace of construction commencements to meet lower construction and financing costs was correct. Electricity prices in Italy maintain a stable level. Italy is the only country in Europe where no negative electricity prices were recorded. The main reason is local gas-based electricity generation, and no change is expected in the short and medium term.
Activity in Israel:
The Manara Cliff Pumped Storage Project (Company’s share is 83.34%): A project with a capacity of 156 MW, which is in advanced construction stages. The Iron Swords War, which commenced on October 7, 2023, stopped the construction work on the project. The project has protection from the state for damages and losses due to the war within the framework of the tariff regulation (covenants that support financing). The project was expected to reach commercial operation during the first half of 2027 and the continuation of the Iron Swords war will cause a delay in the date of activation. The Israeli Electricity Authority currently approved a postponement of ten months of the dates for the project. In August 2024, a hearing was published in connection with an additional extension of six months (for an aggregate extension of 16 months). The Company and its partner in the project, Ampa, invested the equity required for the project (other than linkage differences), and the remainder of the funding is from a consortium of lenders led by Mizrahi Bank, at a scope of approximately NIS 1.18 billion.
Development of Solar licenses combined with storage:
| 1. | The Komemiyut and Qelahim Projects: each intended for 21 solar MW and 50 MW / hour batteries. The sale of electricity will be conducted through a private supplier. Commencement of construction is planned for the first quarter of 2025. |
The Company waived the rights it won in a solar / battery tender process in connection with these projects and therefore paid a forfeiture of guarantee in the amount of NIS 1.8 million and is in advanced negotiations with a local supplier for the execution of a long-term PPA.
| 2. | The Talmei Yosef Project: intended for 10 solar MW and 22 MW / hour batteries. The request for zoning approval was approved in the fourth quarter of 2023. |
| 3. | The Talmei Yosef Storage Project in Batteries: there is a zoning approval for approximately 400 MW / hour. The project is designed for the regulation of high voltage storage. |
4
The Company also has approximately 46 solar MW under preliminary planning stages.
Activity in the Netherlands:
During the first half of 2024, the operational improvement in the Company’s biogas plants continued and high production levels were maintained. In addition, significant progress was made in the process of obtaining the licenses to increase production by about 50% in the three plants. Increasing production will require only small investments and is expected to increase income and EBITDA. The directive of the European Union to act to significantly increase the production of greed gas and the establishment of the new government in the Netherlands enable the continuation of the legislative process mandating the obligation to mix green gas with fossil gas and the conclusion of the legislative process is expected soon. This legislation is expected to have a positive effect on the prices of green gas and the price of the accompanying green certificates.
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 operating 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 measure presented by other companies. The Company’s EBITDA may not be indicative of the Company’s historic operating results; nor is it meant to be predictive of potential future results. The Company uses this measure internally as performance measure and believes that when this measure is combined with IFRS measure it add useful information concerning the Company’s operating performance. A reconciliation between results on an IFRS and non-IFRS basis is provided on page 15 of this press release.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company’s Net Financial Debt, (as such term is defined in the Deeds of Trust of the Company’s Debentures), was approximately €101 million (consisting of approximately €284.53 million of short-term and long-term debt from banks and other interest bearing financial obligations, approximately €159.54 million in connection with the Series C Debentures issuances (in July 2019, October 2020, February 2021 and October 2021), the Series D Convertible Debentures issuance (in February 2021), the Series E Secured Debentures issuance (in February 2023) and the Series F Debentures issuance (in January 2024 and April 2024)), net of approximately €58.5 million of cash and cash equivalents, short-term deposits and marketable securities and net of approximately €284.55 million of project finance and related hedging transactions of the Company’s subsidiaries).

| 8 | The adjustment is based on the results of solar plants in Italy that were connected to the grid and commenced delivery of electricity to the grid during the six months ended June 30, 2024. As these solar plants have not reached PAC (Preliminary Acceptance Certificate) as of June 30, 2024, the Company recorded revenues and did not have direct expenses in connection with these solar plants. However, for the sake of caution, the Company included the expected fixed expenses in connection with these solar plants in the calculation of the adjustment. |

Note 2 - Basis of Preparation and Significant Accounting Policies
The accounting policies applied by the Company in these condensed consolidated unaudited interim financial statements are the same as those applied by the Company in its annual financial statements for 2023.
A. Statement of compliance
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and do not include all of the information required for full annual financial statements. They should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2023 (hereinafter – “the annual financial statements”).
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were authorized for issue on September 30, 2024.
B. Use of estimates and judgments
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to exercise judgment when making assessments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The significant judgments made by management in applying the Company’s accounting policies and the principal assumptions used in the estimation of uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the annual financial statements.

Note 2 - Basis of Preparation and Significant Accounting Policies (cont’d)
C. Initial application of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations
Amendment to IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements: Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current (hereinafter - the “Amendment”) and subsequent amendment: Non-Current Liabilities with Covenants (hereinafter - the “Subsequent Amendment”)
The Amendment, together with the Subsequent Amendment to IAS 1 (see hereunder) replaces certain requirements for classifying liabilities as current or non-current.
According to the Amendment, a liability will be classified as non-current when the entity has the right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting period, and it “has substance” and is in existence at the end of the reporting period. According to the Subsequent Amendment, as published in October 2022, covenants with which the entity must comply after the reporting date, do not affect classification of the liability as current or non-current. Additionally, the Subsequent Amendment adds disclosure requirements for liabilities subject to covenants within 12 months after the reporting date, such as disclosure regarding the nature of the covenants, the date they need to be complied with and facts and circumstances that indicate the entity may have difficulty complying with the covenants. Furthermore, the Amendment clarifies that the conversion option of a liability will affect its classification as current or non-current, other than when the conversion option is recognized as equity.
The Amendment and Subsequent Amendment are effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2024. The Amendment and Subsequent Amendment are applicable retrospectively, including an amendment to comparative data. Application of the Amendment did not have a material effect on the financial statements.
D. New standards, amendments to standards and interpretations not yet adopted
IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements
This standard replaces IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements. The purpose of the standard is to provide improved structure and content to the financial statements, particularly the income statement.
The standard includes new disclosure and presentation requirements that were taken from IAS 1, Presentation of Financial Statements, with small changes. As part of the new disclosure requirements, companies will be required to present two subtotals in the income statement: operating profit and profit before financing and taxes. Furthermore, for most companies, the results in the income statements will be classified into three categories: operating profit, profit from investments and profit from financing.
In addition to the changes in the structure of the income statements, the standard also includes a requirement to provide separate disclosure in the financial statements regarding the use of management-defined performance measures (non-GAAP measures). Furthermore, the standard adds specific guidance for aggregation and disaggregation of items in the financial statements and in the notes. The standard will encourage companies to avoid classifying items as ‘other’ (for example, other expenses), and using this classification will lead to additional disclosure requirements. This standard is effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027 and is applicable retrospectively, with early adoption permitted. The Company is examining the effects of the standard on its financial statements with no plans for early adoption.
Note 3 - Seasonality
Solar power production has a seasonal cycle due to its dependency on the direct and indirect sunlight and the effect the amount of sunlight has on the output of energy produced. Thus, low radiation levels during the winter months decrease power production.

A. Ellomay Luzon Energy (formerly U. Dori Energy Infrastructures Ltd.)-
Since November 2010, the Company indirectly
(through Ellomay Clean Energy LP (“Ellomay Energy LP”)) holds
Dorad provided guarantees in favor of
the Israeli Electricity Authority, NOGA - Electricity System Management Ltd. and Israel Natural Gas Lines Ltd. These guarantees were provided
through Dorad’s shareholders at their proportionate holdings, as required by the financing agreements executed by Dorad. As of June
30, 2024, total performance guarantees provided by Dorad amounted to approximately NIS
Dorad and its shareholders are involved in several legal proceedings as follows:
Petition to Approve a Derivative Claim filed by Ellomay Luzon Energy and Ran Fridrich and Third Party Notices
In connection with the description of the petition to approve a derivative claim filed by Ellomay Luzon Energy and Hemi Raphael (replaced by Ran Fridrich) and related third party notices included in Note 6.A to the annual financial statements, on May 15, 2024, the parties filed answers to the responses to the appeals on the arbitration ruling. A preliminary hearing was held on June 5, 2024. Following the preliminary hearing and claim raised at the hearing, including a request to hold a hearing in which the parties will orally present their claims, on June 9, 2024 the arbitrator ruled that in light of the arbitration agreement and the scope of written arguments submitted by the parties, at this stage the arguments in the appeal process will not be heard orally. On July 30, 2024, the arbitrator ruled that the date for issuing the ruling on the appeals will be extended by 120 days from the date the appeal proceeds ended, in addition to the 60-day period for providing the ruling based on the arbitration agreement.
Based on the advice of legal counsel of Ellomay Luzon Energy, at this stage it is not possible to estimate the outcome of the appeals.
Petition to Approve a Derivative Claim filed by Edelcom
In connection with the description of the petition to approve a derivative claim filed by Edelcom Ltd., one of the shareholders of Dorad (“Edelcom”), included in Note 6.A to the annual financial statements, as Edelcom did not appeal the arbitrator’s decision with respect to the petition to approve a derivative claim filed by Edelcom in connection with the entrepreneurship fees, the arbitration award remains unchanged with respect to this petition and claim.
Potential Expansion of the Dorad Power Plant (“Dorad 2”)
With reference to Note 6.A to the annual financial statements under the heading “Potential Expansion of the Dorad Power Plant (“Dorad 2”)”, on May 2, 2024, the legal advisor of the NIC announced that at the April 17, 2024 meeting of the Israeli government, it was decided to reject NIP 20/B - Hadera Power Station and therefore it is possible to resume and promote the procedure of issuing the building permits under NIP 11/B (the Israeli National Infrastructure Plan that governs, among other issues, the expansion of the power plant owned by Doard by approximately 650 MW) at the at the National Licensing Authority. Dorad was therefore asked by the legal advisor to the NIC to submit a request to delete the petition it submitted to the Israeli High Court of Justice in connection with the issuance of the building permits, as the petition became redundant in light of the rejection of NIP 20/B. Considering this development, Dorad submitted a request to the High Court of Justice to delete the petition without an order for costs. On May 8, 2024, a judgment was issued dismissing the petition without an order for costs.

B. Manara Pumped Storage Project –
Impact of War in Israel
Due to the Iron Swords War, which has also expanded into a security conflict in Israel’s northern region, construction works at the Manara site were halted. During the period, the planning works, the construction of the equipment off site, including the electro-mechanical equipment, and the arrival of the equipment in Israel continued as planned. The Israeli Electricity Authority granted a ten-month extension to the regulatory milestones and the duration of the general license. In August 2024, the Electricity Authority released a hearing expected to grant an additional six-month extension period (a total sixteen-month extension) to the regulatory milestones and the duration of the general license. As part of the standards supporting financing, there is protection for the senior debt (principal and interest) and the developer’s expenses, subject to the approval of the Israeli Electricity Authority on the subject. At this stage the Company cannot quantify the impact on the timing of the construction of the project. In addition, the Company cannot predict at this stage the duration and scope of the Iron Swords War or its effect on the Company, please see Note 6B in the annual financial statements.

Sale of the Talmei Yosef Solar Plant
On December 31, 2023, we executed an agreement to sell our holdings in the Talmei Yosef solar plant. For more information, see “Item 4.A: History and Development of Ellomay; Recent Developments” in our Annual Report. The sale was consummated on June 3, 2024.
In connection with the sale of the Talmei Yosef solar plant, we present the results of the Talmei Yosef solar plant as a discontinued operation and the results for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 are adjusted accordingly. The Talmei Yosef solar plant was presented in our financial results as a financial asset, in accordance with IFRIC 12 under IFRS, and since its acquisition, we recognized relatively high profits through its ownership. Accordingly, although the consideration expected received for the Talmei Yosef solar plant reflects a market value higher than the price invested by us in its acquisition, due to the accounting treatment under IFRIC 12, we recognized a loss of approximately €2.6 million in connection with the sale as at December 31, 2023 and a loss of approximately €0.4 million in connection with the sale as at June 30, 2024.
Results of Operations
Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2023
The results of operations included in our condensed financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2023 do not include, and the results of operations included in our condensed financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2024 only partially include, the results of the solar plants in Italy that were connected to the grid during the six months ended June 30, 2024. Therefore, our past results for these periods are not indicative of our results in the future.
Revenues
Revenues were approximately €19.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €25 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This decrease mainly results from the decrease in electricity prices in Spain.

Italy – Solar Segment. Revenues from our Italian solar segment were approximately €0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 0 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The change resulted from the connection to the grid and commencement of revenue recognition of two solar power plants in Italy.
Spain – Subsidized Solar Segment. Revenues from our Spanish subsidized solar segment were approximately €1.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €1.5 for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Spain – 28 MW Solar Segment. Revenues from our Spanish 28 MW solar segment were approximately €0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €2.1 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease mainly results from the decrease in electricity prices in Spain.
Spain – Talasol Solar Segment. Revenues from our Spanish Talasol solar segment were approximately €9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €12.7 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease mainly results from the decrease in electricity prices in Spain.
Netherlands – Biogas Segment. Revenues from our Netherlands biogas segment were approximately €8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €8.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in revenues is mainly due to the sale of the gas in 2023 in the market at higher prices and not under subsidy, partially offset by increased production.
Operating Expenses and Depreciation and Amortization Expenses
Operating expenses were approximately €9.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €11.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in operating expenses mainly results from a decrease in direct taxes on electricity production paid by our Spanish subsidiaries as a result of reduced electricity prices. The operating expenses of our Spanish subsidiaries for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were impacted by the Spanish RDL 17/2022, which established the reduction of returns on the electricity generating activity of Spanish production facilities that do not emit greenhouse gases, accomplished through payments of a portion of the revenues by the production facilities to the Spanish government. Depreciation and amortization expenses were approximately €8.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €7.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Italy – Solar Segment. Two solar power plants in Italy were connected to the Italian electricity grid during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and have not achieved PAC (preliminary acceptance certificate) as of June 30, 2024. Therefore, we did not have any direct operating expenses in connection with our Italian solar segment for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Spain – Subsidized Solar Segment. Operating expenses in connection with our Spanish subsidized solar segment were approximately €0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Spain – 28 MW Solar Segment. Operating expenses in connection with our Spanish 28 MW solar segment were approximately €0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €0.9 for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease resulted from a decrease in direct taxes on electricity production paid by our Spanish subsidiaries as a result of reduced electricity prices.
Spain – Talasol Segment. Operating expenses in connection with our Spanish Talasol segment were approximately €2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease resulted from a decrease in direct taxes on electricity production paid by our Spanish subsidiaries as a result of reduced electricity prices.
Netherlands – Biogas Segment. Operating expenses in connection with our Netherlands biogas segment were approximately €6.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease is mainly attributable to the decrease in the cost of raw materials.
Project Development Costs
Project development costs were approximately €2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses were approximately €3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in general and administrative expenses is mostly due to higher consultancy expenses.
Share of Profit / Loss of Equity Accounted Investee
Our share of profit of equity accounted investee, after elimination of intercompany transactions, was approximately €1.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €1.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in share of profits of equity accounted investee was mainly due to an increase in revenues of Dorad as a result of higher quantities produced, partially offset by an increase in operating expenses in connection with the increased production.

Financing expense, net was approximately €2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to financing income, net of approximately €1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in financing expenses, net, was mainly attributable to lower income resulting from exchange rate differences that amounted to approximately €1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, an aggregate change of approximately €5.9 million. The exchange rate differences were mainly recorded in connection with the New Israeli Shekel (“NIS”) cash and cash equivalents and our NIS denominated debentures and were caused by the 0.2% devaluation of the NIS against the euro during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a devaluation of 7.1% during the six months ended June 30, 2023. An additional increase in financing expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was due to increased interest expenses mainly resulting from the issuance of our Series F Debentures in January and April 2024. These increases in financing expenses were partially offset by an increase in financing income of approximately €3.3 million in connection with derivatives and warrants in the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Tax Benefit
Tax benefit was approximately €1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Profit / Loss from Continuing Operations
Loss from continuing operations was approximately €3.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a profit from continuing operations of approximately €4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Profit / Loss from Discontinued Operation
Loss from discontinued operation (net of tax) was approximately €0.08 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a profit from discontinued operation of approximately €3 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Profit / Loss
Loss was approximately €3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to a profit of approximately €4.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Total Other Comprehensive Income
Total other comprehensive income was approximately €5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to approximately €31.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The change in total other comprehensive income mainly results from changes in fair value of cash flow hedges, including a material decrease in the fair value of the liability resulting from the financial power swap that covers approximately 80% of the output of the Talasol solar plant, or the Talasol PPA. The Talasol PPA experienced a high volatility due to the substantial change in electricity prices in Europe. In accordance with hedge accounting standards, the changes in the Talasol PPA’s fair value are recorded in our shareholders’ equity through a hedging reserve and not through the accumulated deficit/retained earnings. The changes do not impact our consolidated net profit/loss or our consolidated cash flows.
Total Comprehensive Income
Total comprehensive income was approximately €2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to total comprehensive income of approximately €35.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 Compared with Six Months Ended June 30, 2022
As noted above, the results of operations included in our financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and 2022 have been adjusted to reflect the sale of the Talmei Yosef solar plant and the presentation of related results as a discontinued operation. In addition, the results of operations included in our financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 do not include the results for the Italian solar plants connected to the grid during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the results for the six months ended June 30, 2022 only partially include the results of the Ellomay Solar plant (since June 24, 2022). Therefore, our results for these periods are not indicative of our results in the future.
Revenues
Revenues were approximately €25 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to approximately €28.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. This decrease mainly results from the decrease in electricity prices in Spain and from a curtailment of the electricity supply from our facilities to the grid during June 2023 due to maintenance and upgrade work on the main transmission line between Spain and Portugal, which caused a decrease in revenues of approximately €1 million. We subsequently implemented a solution aimed at minimizing the impact of future similar curtailments. The decrease in revenues was partially offset by an increase in revenues from our biogas plants in the Netherlands, resulting mainly from increased production and an increase in the 2023 gas price, and from the connection to the grid of Ellomay Solar (a 28 MW solar plant in Spain) during June 2022, upon which we commenced recognition of revenues.

Spain – Subsidized Solar Segment. Revenues from our Spanish subsidized solar segment were approximately €1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to approximately €2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease mainly resulted from the decrease in electricity prices in Spain.
Spain – 28 MW Solar Segment. Revenues from our Spanish 28 MW solar segment were approximately €2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to approximately €0.3 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Ellomay Solar plant was connected to the Spanish national grid on June 11, 2022 and therefore no revenues were generated or recognized prior to such date.
Spain – Talasol Solar Segment. Revenues from our Spanish Talasol solar segment were approximately €12.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to approximately €20.4 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease mainly resulted from the decrease in electricity prices in Spain and from a curtailment of the electricity supply from our facilities to the grid during June 2023 due to maintenance and upgrade work on the main transmission line between Spain and Portugal, which caused a decrease in revenues of approximately €1 million.
Netherlands – Biogas Segment. Revenues from our Netherlands biogas segment were approximately €8.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to approximately €5.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in revenues is mainly due to increased production and an increase in the 2023 gas price.
Operating Expenses and Depreciation and Amortization Expenses
Operating expenses were approximately €11.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to approximately €12.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in operating expenses mainly results from a decrease in payments under the Spanish RDL 17/2022, caused by a reduction in the electricity market price. RDL 17/2022 established the reduction of returns on the electricity generating activity of Spanish production facilities that do not emit greenhouse gases, accomplished through payments of a portion of the revenues by the production facilities to the Spanish government. As a result of the decrease in the electricity market price in Spain during the first half of 2023, the payments under RDL 17/2022 were lower during this period compared to the same period last year. This decrease in operating expenses was partially offset by increased operating expenses in connection with our biogas operations in the Netherlands caused by the use of higher quality raw materials due to lower availability of cheaper raw materials, and from the connection to the grid of Ellomay Solar during June 2022, upon which we commenced recognition of expenses. Depreciation and amortization expenses were approximately €7.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to approximately €7.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Operating expenses in connection with our Spanish solar segment were approximately €0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to approximately €0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase mainly resulted from insurance reimbursement received in 2022.
Spain – 28 MW Solar Segment. Operating expenses in connection with our Ellomay Solar segment were approximately €0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to approximately €0.2 for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Ellomay Solar plant was connected to the Spanish national grid on June 11, 2022 and therefore no operating expenses were recognized prior to such date.
Spain – Talasol Segment. Operating expenses in connection with our Talasol solar segment were approximately €3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to approximately €7.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease resulted mainly reduced payments under Spanish RDL 17/2021 due to the lower electricity price.
Netherlands – Biogas Segment. Operating expenses in connection with our Netherlands biogas segment were approximately €7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to approximately €5.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase is mainly attributable to the use of higher quality raw materials due to lower availability of cheaper raw materials.
Project Development Costs
Project development costs were approximately €2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to approximately €1.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in project development costs is mainly due to the increase in development activities in connection with photovoltaic projects in Israel and USA.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses were approximately €2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to approximately €3.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in general and administrative expenses is mostly due to a decrease in D&O liability insurance costs and bonuses paid to employees in 2022.
Share of Profit / Loss of Equity Accounted Investee
Our share of profit of equity accounted investee, after elimination of intercompany transactions, was approximately €1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to a loss of approximately €0.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in share of profits of equity accounted investee was mainly due to the increase in revenues of Dorad due to higher quantities produced and a higher electricity tariff in Israel, partially offset by an increase in operating expenses in connection with the increased production and higher tariff.

Taxes on Income / Tax Benefit
Tax benefit was approximately €1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to taxes on income of approximately €1.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The change is mainly due to deferred tax recognized for carry forward losses.

Total Other Comprehensive Income / Loss
Total other comprehensive income was approximately €31.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to total other comprehensive loss of approximately €34.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The change mainly resulted from changes in fair value of cash flow hedges, including a material increase in the fair value of the financial power swap, or the Talasol PPA, which covers approximately 80% of the output of the Talasol solar plant compared to the same period last year. The Talasol PPA experienced a high volatility due to the significant changes in electricity prices in Europe that included a substantial increase in prices during 2021 and 2022 and a substantial decrease in prices during 2023. In accordance with hedge accounting standards, the changes in the Talasol PPA’s fair value are recorded in our shareholders’ equity through a hedging reserve and not through the accumulated deficit/retained earnings. The changes do not impact our consolidated net profit/loss or our consolidated cash flows. As we control Talasol, the total impact of the changes in fair value of the Talasol PPA (including the minority share) is consolidated into our financial statements and total equity.
Total Comprehensive Income / Loss
Total comprehensive income was approximately €35.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, compared to total comprehensive loss of approximately €35.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Impact of Fluctuation of Currencies
We hold cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities and restricted cash in various currencies, mainly in USD, euro and NIS. Our investments in our European operations (i.e., in our Italian and Spanish solar plants, our biogas plants and our solar projects under development and construction in Italy are denominated in euro, our investments in our Israeli operations (i.e., Ellomay Luzon Energy, the Manara PSP and solar projects under development) are denominated in NIS and our investments in our solar projects in Texas, USA, are denominated in USD. Our financing is denominated in NIS (i.e., principal and interest payments on our debentures and the financing of the Manara PSP) and in euro (i.e., financing in connection with our Spanish solar plants and the project finance and loans provided by the minority (49%) holders of Talasol). We therefore are affected by changes in the prevailing euro/NIS exchange rates and euro/USD exchange rates. We cannot predict the rate of appreciation/depreciation of the NIS against the euro or the USD against the euro in the future, and whether these changes will have a material adverse effect on our finances and operations.
The table below sets forth the annual and semi-annual rates of appreciation (or devaluation) of the NIS against the Euro.

Governmental Economic, Fiscal, Monetary or Political Policies or Factors that have or could Materially Affect our Operations or Investments by U.S. Shareholders
Governmental Regulations Affecting the Operations of our Solar Power Plants and other Facilities
Our solar power plants and other energy manufacturing plants are subject to comprehensive regulation and we sell the electricity and energy produced by them for rates determined by governmental legislation and to local governmental entities. Any change in the legislation that affects plants such as our plants could materially adversely affect our results of operations. An economic crisis in Europe and specifically in Spain, the Netherlands and Italy, whether related to a military conflict or otherwise, or financial distress of the IEC or Noga in Israel, could cause the applicable legislator to reduce benefits provided to operators of solar power plants or other privately-owned energy manufacturing plants or to revise the incentive or regulatory regimes that currently governs the sale of electricity in Spain, the Netherlands, Israel and Italy. For more information see “Item 3.D: Risk Factors - Risks Related to our Renewable Energy Operations,” “Item 3.D: Risk Factors - Risks Related to our Investment in Ellomay Luzon Energy,” “Item 3.D: Risk Factors - Risks Related to our Other Operations”, “Item 4.B: Material Effects of Government Regulations on the PV Plants,” “Item 4.B: Material Effects of Government Regulations on Dorad’s Operations,” “Item 4.B: The Netherlands Waste-to-Energy Market and Regulation” and “Item 4.B: Material Effects of Government Regulations on The Manara PSP” of our Annual Report.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
We entered into various project finance agreements in connection with the financing of our Spanish solar plants, the Netherlands biogas plants and the Manara PSP. In July 2019, October 2020, February 2021 and October 2021 we issued the Series C Debentures, in February 2021 we issued the Series D Convertible Debentures, in February 2023 we issued the Series E Secured Debentures and in January 2024, April 2024 and August 2024 we issued the Series F Debentures.
We will require additional funds to advance the projects that are currently under construction or development or that will be developed and constructed in the future. For more information concerning our financing activities, see “Item 4.A: History and Development of Ellomay; Recent Developments” and “Item 5.B: Liquidity and Capital Resources” of our Annual Report.
As of June 30, 2024, we had a working capital deficiency approximately €10.9 million. Based on our current operating forecast, we believe that the combination of funds raised during the three months ended September 30, 2024, the expected sale of tax credits in connection with our US solar projects and the expected cash flows from operations, will be sufficient to finance our ongoing operations for the next twelve months.
Upon the issuance of our Debentures, we undertook to comply with the “hybrid model disclosure requirements” as determined by the Israeli Securities Authority and as described in the Israeli prospectuses published in connection with the public offering of our Debentures. This model provides that in the event certain financial “warning signs” exist in our consolidated financial results or statements, and for as long as they exist, we will be subject to certain disclosure obligations towards the holders of our Debentures.
12
One possible “warning sign” is the existence of a working capital deficiency if our Board of Directors does not determine that the working capital deficiency is not an indication of a liquidity problem. In examining the existence of warning signs as of June 30, 2024, our Board of Directors noted the working capital deficiency as of June 30, 2024. Our Board of Directors reviewed our financial position, outstanding debt obligations and our existing and anticipated cash resources and uses and determined that the existence of a working capital deficiency as of June 30, 2024, does not indicate a liquidity problem. In making such determination, our Board of Directors noted the following: (i) the issuance of additional Series F Debentures in consideration for approximately NIS 50 million, which was completed after June 30, 2024 and therefore not reflected on our balance sheet, (ii) the execution of the agreement to sell tax credits in connection with the US solar projects, which is expected to contribute approximately $19 million during the next twelve months, and (iii) the positive cash flow generated by our operating subsidiaries during the year ended December 31, 2023 and the six months ended June 30, 2024.
We currently invest our excess cash in cash and cash equivalents that are highly liquid and in marketable securities.
As of June 30, 2024, we held approximately €56 million in cash and cash equivalents, approximately €2.5 million in short-term deposits, approximately €0.7 million in short-term restricted cash and approximately €17.3 million in long-term restricted cash and deposits, compared with approximately €51.1 million in cash and cash equivalents, approximately €1 million in short-term deposits, approximately €0.8 million in short-term restricted cash and approximately €17.4 million in long-term restricted cash and deposits we held at December 31, 2023. The change in cash and cash equivalents is mainly due to the issuance of our Series F Debentures in January and April 2024 and the Project Finance of the Ellomay Solar Plant in Spain, partially offset by development and construction related expenses and repayments made on account of our other Debentures.
In the last three fiscal years, our principal capital expenditures were mainly the development and construction of the Manara PSP and of various solar projects in Italy, Israel and the United States. For information regarding our projects under development and construction, please see above under “General,” and “Item 4.B: Business Overview” and “Item 5: Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” of the Annual Report, Note 6 to our to our annual financial statements included in the Annual Report and Note 6 to our condensed consolidated interim financial statements as at June 30, 2024.

Operating activities
In the six months ended June 30, 2024, we had a loss of approximately €3.3 million. Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately €0.5 million.
In the six months ended June 30, 2023, we had a profit of approximately €4.6 million. Net cash provided by operating activities was approximately €5.3 million.
The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2024, is mainly due to the decrease in electricity prices in Spain. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2023, our Dutch biogas plants elected to temporarily exit the subsidy regime and sell the gas at market prices and during the year ended December 31, 2024 these plants returned to the subsidy regime. Under the subsidy regime, plants are entitled to monthly advances on subsidies based on the production during the previous year. As no subsidies were paid to our Dutch biogas plants for 2023, these plants are not entitled to advance payments for 2024 and the payment for gas produced by the plants during 2024 is expected to be received until July 2025.

Certain Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed consolidated interim financial statements (unaudited), which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. While all the accounting policies impact the financial statements, certain policies may be viewed to be critical. These policies are most important for the fair portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and are those that require our management to make difficult, subjective and complex judgments, estimates and assumptions, based upon information available at the time that they are made, historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of expenses during the periods presented. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The critical accounting policies described in Item 5 of our Annual Report, in Note 2 of our consolidated annual financial statements and in Note 2 of our condensed consolidated interim financial statements as at June 30, 2024, are those that require management’s more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
Disclosure about Market Risk
We are exposed to a variety of risks, including foreign currency fluctuations and changes in interest rates. We regularly assess currency and interest rate risks to minimize any adverse effects on our business as a result of those factors and periodically use hedging transactions in order to attempt to limit the impact of such changes.
For more information concerning hedging transactions, see Note 7 of our condensed consolidated interim financial statements as at June 30, 2024.

Forward-Looking Statements
With the exception of historical facts, the matters discussed in this report and the financial statements attached hereto are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may relate to, among other things, future actions, future performance generally, business development activities, future capital expenditures, strategies, the outcome of contingencies such as legal proceedings, future financial results, financing sources and availability and the effects of regulation and competition. When we use the words “believe,” “intend,” “expect,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipate,” “could,” “estimate,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” or their negatives, or other similar expressions, the statements which include those words are usually forward-looking statements. When we describe strategy that involves risks or uncertainties or include statements that do not relate strictly to historical or current facts, we are making forward-looking statements.
Achievement of future results is subject to risks, uncertainties and inaccurate assumptions. Should known or unknown risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, actual results could vary materially from those anticipated, estimated or projected. Please see Item 3.D. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report, in which we have identified important factors that, individually or in the aggregate, could cause actual results and outcomes to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements made by us; any such statement is qualified by reference to the following cautionary statements. You should understand that it is not possible to predict or identify all risk factors. Consequently, you should not consider the said section to be a complete discussion of all potential risks or uncertainties. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.
We warn you that forward-looking statements are only predictions. Actual events or results may differ as a result of risks that we face. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they were made and we undertake no obligation to update them.
