Independent Auditors’ Report to the Shareholders of OPC Energy Ltd.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of OPC Energy Ltd. (hereinafter - the “Company”) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income or loss, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s Board of Directors and management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit according to generally accepted accounting principles in Israel, including standards set out in the Independent Auditors’ Regulations (Modus Operandi of Certified Public Accountant), 1973. Such standards require us to plan and conduct the audit in order to obtain reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and information in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the Company’s board of directors and management, as well as evaluating the accuracy of the overall financial statements presented. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the above consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material aspects, the financial position of the Company and its consolidated companies as of December 31, 2024 and 2023 and their results of operations, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended on December 31, 2024, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS Accounting Standards) and with the provisions of the Israeli Securities Regulations (Annual Financial Statements), 2010.

Key audit matters

The key audit matters listed below are those matters that were communicated or should have communicated to the Company’s Board of Directors, and which, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters include, among other things, any matter that: (1) Relates, or may relate to material items or disclosures on the financial statements; and (2) our judgment in connection therewith was particularly challenging, subjective or complex. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon. Communicating these matters, as follows, does not alter our opinion on the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and we do not use their communication to provide a separate opinion on these matters, nor on the items or disclosures to which they relate

Annual impairment testing of goodwill generated on the acquisition of the Gat Power Plant

Why was this matter deemed as a key audit matter

The Company tests for goodwill impairment for each cash-generating unit comprising goodwill on a fixed date once a year, or more often if there are indications of impairment to the value of these cash-generating units. In order to test such assets for impairment, the Group checks whether the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount, in accordance with the provisions of IAS 36 regarding impairment.

As stated in Note 11B to the aforementioned financial statements, the Company has goodwill whose balance as per the statement of financial position as of December 31, 2024 is approx. NIS 220 million, which was created upon acquisition of the Gat Power Plant and is associated with the Israel power plants operations (especially Rotem, Hadera and Gat) (hereinafter: the "Companies").

As stated in Section 3F1 to the aforesaid financial statements, subsequent to initial recognition goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. The Company’s management tested for impairment the balance of goodwill as of December 31, 2024. Company’s management reached the conclusion that it is not required to recognize an impairment loss in the 2024 Financial Statements.

We identified the impairment testing of the goodwill attributable to the companies as a key audit matter. The key considerations for this decision are:
Discounted cash flow calculations are based on subjective assumptions of the Company's management, including estimates of projected cash flows and discount rate.
The audit procedures we implemented with respect to the impairment testing of the goodwill attributable to the Companies involved the exercise of the audit team’s judgement, and the use of experts who had valuation-related knowledge and experience.

How the key matter was addressed in the audit

Following are the key audit procedures implemented by the audit team in connection with the key matter:

We obtained an understanding of the process of goodwill impairment testing, and reviewed the process used by management to assess the need to record impairment. We also examined the effectiveness of the audits executed by management.

We sought the assistance of experts possessing the required knowledge and experience in valuations in order to assess the valuation method  and assess the reasonableness of the weighted average cost of capital.

We received from the Company calculations of discounted cash flows relating to the most significant component associated with the activity of the Rotem Power Plant, and assessed the reasonableness of the significant assumptions used in calculating the projected cash flows, by, among other things, comparing them to historical results and projections regarding the Generation Component. .

We tested the completeness of the data included in the valuation model and their adequacy.

We conducted a sensitivity analysis to the results of the model with respect to the key assumptions, such as the electricity tariff (generation component) and the weighted average cost of capital.

We also have audited - in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), regarding the audit of internal control over financial reporting - the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our report, dated March 11, 2025 included an unqualified opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over the Company’s financial reporting.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Shareholders of OPC Energy Ltd. regarding the Audit of Internal Control Components over Financial Reporting

We have audited internal control components over financial reporting of OPC Energy Ltd. and its subsidiaries (hereinafter, jointly - the "Company”) as of December 31, 2024. Based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).  The Company's Board of Directors and management are responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for their assessment of the effectiveness of the internal control components over financial reporting attached to the periodic report as of the above date. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control components over financial reporting based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the faithful representation of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of the Company’s management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. In addition, drawing conclusions regarding the future based on any evaluation of effectiveness for future periods is subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate due to changes in circumstance, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

In our opinion, the Company effectively complied with, in all material respects, the Audited Control Components as of December 31, 2024. Based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

We have also audited, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Israel, the consolidated statements of financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and our report, dated March 11, 2025 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

OPC Energy Ltd.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2024

NOTE 1 – GENERAL
 
The Reporting Entity

OPC Energy Ltd. (hereinafter – the "Company”) was incorporated in Israel on February 2, 2010. The Company’s registered address is 121 Menachem Begin Road., Tel Aviv, Israel. The Company’s controlling shareholder is Kenon Holdings Ltd. (hereinafter - the “Parent Company”), a company incorporated in Singapore, the shares of which are dual-listed on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange Ltd. (hereinafter - the “TASE”).

The Company is a publicly-traded company whose securities are traded on the TASE.

As of the report date, the Group is engaged in the initiation, development, construction, operation and generation and supply of electricity and energy through three operating segments (which constitute reportable segments in the financial statements): Israel (through OPC Holdings Israel Ltd. (hereinafter - “OPC Israel”), in which the Company has an 80% stake), US Renewable Energies and Energy Transition in the USA (the activities in the USA - through CPV Group, in which the Company has a 70.46% stake).
In addition, the Company is engaged, through CPV Group, in a number of business activities in the USA, which - as of the report date - are not material to the Group’s operating results (and do not constitute reportable segments in the financial statements). For further details – see Note 25.

Iron Swords War

2023 was characterized by substantial instability amid events at the domestic and geopolitical-security levels. On October 7, 2023 the Iron Swords War broke out (hereinafter – the “War”) in the Gaza Strip. Furthermore, during 2024 fighting and security tensions intensified in other fronts, especially in the north of the country, and also in the conflicts with Iran and the Houthis. The War and the security situation led to various ramifications and restrictions on the Israeli economy at different times. Moreover, the War has had external impacts which include, among other things, disruption to marine shipping routes due to attacks on merchant and shipping vessels and considerably less flights by foreign airlines to and from Israel. These events affect and may have an effect, from time to time, on the arrival of equipment and foreign personnel to Israel (including personnel and equipment required to carry out maintenance and construction work in the Group’s sites in Israel) and the arrival times.

The abovementioned events involve significant uncertainty and may adversely affect the macroeconomic environment, including adversely affect the Israeli economy’s robustness. If the security situation deteriorates, it may have an adverse effect on the Company’s activities in Israel, activities of the Company's customers and suppliers in Israel, as well as adversely affect the Company's operating results, the availability and cost of capital and sources of financing required by the Group.

As of the Report approval date, a ceasefire is in place in most fronts, but there is substantial uncertainty as to whether the ceasefire will hold and the resumption of the War. Therefore, at this stage, it is impossible to assess the effect of the above on the Company and its results of operations, if any, in the short and medium term.

E.
Use of estimates and judgments

In preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with the IFRS, the Company’s management is required to use judgment when making estimates, assessments and assumptions that affect implementation of the accounting policies and the amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

When formulating accounting estimates used in preparing the Group’s financial statements, the Group’s management was required to use assumptions concerning circumstances and events that involve significant uncertainty. In determining the estimates, the Group’s management’s discretion is based on past experience, various facts, external factors and reasonable assumption under the appropriate circumstances for each estimate.

These estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed regularly. Changes in accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates were revised and in any future affected period.

Information regarding the assumptions made by the Group in respect of the future and other major factors for uncertainty regarding the estimates that have a significant risk of resulting in a material adjustment in the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the next financial year, is included in the following line items:


1.
Expected useful life of property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment is depreciated using the straight line method over the expected useful life, considering the residual value of the assets. The Group routinely re-examines the expected useful life of property, plant and equipment in order to determine the depreciation expenses to be recognized for the period. The useful life is based on the Group’s past experience in respect of similar assets and takes into account expected technological changes. Depreciation expenses in respect of future periods are adjusted to reflect significant changes compared to previous estimates, if any. For further details – see Note 3E.


2.
Allocation of acquisition costs

The Group uses estimates to allocate the acquisition costs, specifically in business combination transactions and investments in associates, to tangible and intangible assets and to the acquired liabilities. In addition, when determining the depreciation rates of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities, the Group estimates the expected life of the asset or liability. In its calculation of those estimates, the Group uses, among other things, external and independent appraisers. As to business combinations and acquisition of investments in associates during the reporting period (including a transaction for the introduction of an investor in the US Renewable Energies Segment), see Notes 23E and 24C.


3.
Recoverable amount of cash-generating units that include goodwill and testing for indications of impairment of non-financial assets, including investments in equity-accounted associates

Each year, the Group calculates the recoverable amount of a cash-generating unit to which a goodwill balance has been allocated, based, among other things, on the discounted expected cash flows.

Recoverable amount of cash-generating units that include goodwill and testing for indications of impairment of non-financial assets, including investments in equity-accounted associates (cont.)

Furthermore, on each reporting date, the Group assesses whether there are indications of impairment of non-financial assets and/or cash-generating units, specifically property, plant & equipment, and investments in associates, and where necessary calculates the recoverable amount of those assets/investments.

In its calculation of the recoverable amount, the Group uses, among other things, external and independent appraisers. For further details, see Notes 11B and 11C.


4.
Ability to recover development and construction costs of projects under development and construction

In order to capitalize development and construction costs of projects under development and construction, the Group uses estimates for receipt of regulatory approvals, the existence of an interest in the land, the ability to connect to the electrical grid, signing PPAs with customers, where relevant, and the expectation of generating future economic benefits from the projects. If in subsequent periods the Group's estimates regarding a project deteriorate, in particular with regard to failure to obtain the required regulatory approvals for projects under development, capitalized costs are amortized in profit and loss and/or the capitalization of additional project costs is discontinued.

 
F.
Reclassification and restatement

The Group carried out several immaterial classifications in its comparative figures such that their classification will match their classification in the current financial statements. The said classifications do not have a material effect on the income statement.

 
G.
Seasonality

The results of Group companies in Israel are based on the load and time tariff (hereinafter - the “DSM Tariff”), which is published by the Israeli Electricity Authority, with a certain discount with respect to the generation component. Until January 2023, the year was broken down into three seasons: summer (July and August), winter (December, January and February) and “transitional” (March through June and September through November), and for each season a different tariff was set for each demand hour cluster (hereinafter - “DHC”). Two key updates have taken place since January 2023: (1) Two clusters (on-peak and off-peak) were defined for each day of the year (excluding the interim cluster which was in place until the resolution came into force – mid-peak); (2) the summer season was extended to 4 months instead of two months, such that it extends from June to September; the transition seasons will extend from March to May and from October to November, and the winter season remains without change. The changes made to the demand hours clusters altered the breakdown of Company’s revenues and profitability in Israel (compared to the prior situation) across quarters, such that revenues and profitability in the summer months (June to September) increased substantially compared to other months.

In the USA, the activity of CPV Group is affected by seasonality as a result of variable demand due to, among other things, weather changes in different seasons, natural gas and electricity prices. In general, with respect to gas-fired power plants, there is higher profitability in seasons where temperatures are at their highest or lowest - usually during summer and winter. The profitability of renewable energy production is subject to production volume, which varies based on wind and solar constructions, as well as its electricity price, unless there is a fixed contractual price for the project. Furthermore, with regard to wind-powered renewable energy projects, the speed of the wind tends to be higher during the winter and lower during the summer.

Changes in accounting policies

First-time 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 and subsequent amendment: Non-current Liabilities with Covenants

The amendments change the standard’s provisions regarding the classification of liabilities as current or non-current liabilities, and pertain to the following issues:


The Amendment, together with the subsequent amendment to IAS 1 (see below) replaces certain classification requirements of current or non-current liabilities. For example, pursuant to the amendment, a liability will be classified as non‑current if an entity has the right to defer the payment for a period of at least 12 months after the reporting period, which is “substantive” and exists at the end of the reporting period.
 

The subsequent amendment, as published in October 2022, stipulated that financial covenants, which an entity is required to comply with subsequent to the reporting date, shall not affect the classification of a liability as current or non-current.
 

Furthermore, the subsequent amendment added disclosure requirements for liabilities that are subject to compliance with financial covenants within 12 months after the reporting date, such as disclosure regarding the nature of the financial covenants, the date on which the entity is required to comply with them, and facts and circumstances indicating that an entity will find it difficult to comply with the covenants.
 

In addition, the amendment clarified that a conversion right of a liability will affect its classification as current or non‑current, unless the conversion component is capital-based.
 
The said amendments have been applied for reporting periods commencing on January 1, 2024. The amendments will be applied retrospectively, including adjustment of the comparative figures.
 
The application of the Amendment did not have a material effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policy principles below will be applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements by entities of the Group.

 
A.
Business combinations and investment in subsidiaries


1.
Goodwill

The Group recognizes goodwill on acquisition date according to the fair value of the consideration transferred less the net amount of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Goodwill is initially recognized as an asset based on its cost, and in subsequent periods, is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated are aggregated such that the level at which impairment is tested reflects the lowest level at which goodwill is subject to monitoring for internal reporting purposes, but in no case is it higher than an operating segment. Goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s cash‑generating units that is expected to benefit from the synergy of the business combination. Cash‑generating units to which goodwill was allocated are tested for impairment each year, or more frequently if there are indications of a possible impairment of the unit, as stated.

Business combinations and investment in subsidiaries (cont.)
 

2.
Subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date of loss of control.

The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed when necessary to align them with the policies adopted by the Group.


3.
Non‑controlling interests

Transactions with non-controlling interests, while maintaining control

Transactions with non-controlling interests while maintaining control are treated as equity transactions. Any difference between the consideration paid or received and the change in non-controlling interests is attributed to the share of the owners of the Company in a capital reserve from transactions with non-controlling interests and mergers.


4.
Loss of control

Upon loss of control, the Group derecognizes the subsidiary’s assets and liabilities, any non-controlling interests, and other equity components attributable to that subsidiary. The Group’s remaining stake in the former subsidiary is measured at fair value at the loss of control date.

The difference between the consideration and fair value of the remaining stake and the derecognized balances is recognized in profit and loss under the gains on loss of control in a subsidiary line item. As from that date, the remaining stake is accounted for using the equity method.

The amounts recognized in equity through other comprehensive income with respect to that subsidiary are reclassified to profit or loss or to retained earnings on the same basis that would have been applicable if the subsidiary had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities.

For further details regarding loss of control in CPV Renewable, see Note 23E.

 
B.
Investment in associates and joint ventures
 

1.
Investment in associates and joint ventures

Associates are entities in which the Group has significant influence, but not control or joint control, over the financial and operating policies. Significant influence is the power to participate in making decisions relating to the financial and operational policies of the investee company. There is a rebuttable assumption whereby a 20% to 50% stake in an investee confers significant influence. In testing for significant influence, potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible into shares of the investee are taken into account.

B.
Investment in associates and joint ventures (cont.)
 

1.
Investment in associates and joint ventures (cont.)

Investments in associates and joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognized at cost. The investment cost includes transaction costs. The consolidated financial statements include the Group’s share of the income and expenses in profit or loss and of other comprehensive income of associates, after adjustments to align the accounting policies with those of the Group, from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases. The Company's share in profit or loss from associates will be recorded under operating profit.
 
The Company has investments in associates whose holding stake therein exceeds 50% and in accordance with the analysis of the contractual rights awarded to interest holders in these entities, the Group has concluded that it does not control these entities and will implement the equity method thereto. For further details, see Notes 24C and 23E.


2.
Increase in holdings stake of equity-accounted companies where significant influence has been retained

When increasing its stake in a company accounted for using the equity method while maintaining significant influence or joint control, the Group applies the acquisition method only in respect of additional interests while making no changes in accounting for the previous interests.
 
For further details regarding the acquisition of additional interests in associates Shore and Maryland, see Note 24C.

 
C.
Foreign currency


1.
Foreign currency transactions

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the Group companies at the exchange rate effective on the transaction dates. Financial assets and liabilities denominated in Foreign Currencies on the reporting date are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. The exchange rate differences due to translation of the functional currency are usually recognized in profit and loss (except for differences from cash flow hedges, which are recognized in other comprehensive income, in respect of the effective part of the hedge).
 

2.
Foreign operations

The Group has investments in investees in the USA, which constitute a foreign operation.

The assets and liabilities of foreign operations, including goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on acquisition, are translated to NIS at exchange rates in effect at the reporting date. The income and expenses of foreign operations are translated to NIS at exchange rates in effect at the transaction dates. Foreign exchange differences are recognized in other comprehensive income and are presented in equity in the foreign operations translation reserve (hereinafter – the “translation reserve”).
 
Generally, exchange rate differences from loans received from or provided to foreign operations, including foreign operations that are subsidiaries, are recognized in profit and loss in the consolidated financial statements.
 
When the settlement of loans provided to a foreign operation is neither planned nor likely in the foreseeable future, gains and losses on exchange rate differences arising from these monetary items are included in investment in the foreign operation, net, and are recognized in other comprehensive income and stated in equity under the translation reserve.

Financial instruments
 

1.
Non‑derivative financial instruments

Non‑derivative financial assets include: Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and deposits, trade receivables, certain receivables and debit balances and loans to investees.
 
Non-derivative financial liabilities include: Loans and credit from banking corporations and financial institutions, debt from non-controlling interests, debentures, lease liabilities, trade payables and certain other payables.


2.
Derivative financial instruments, including hedge accounting

Derivatives used for hedge accounting
 
On initial designation of the accounting hedge, the Group formally documents the relationship between the hedging instrument and hedged item, including the Group’s risk management objectives and strategy in undertaking the hedge transaction, together with the methods that will be used to assess the effectiveness of the hedging relationship.
 
The Group estimates, upon creation of the hedge and in the subsequent periods, whether the hedge is expected to be highly effective in offsetting changes in fair value or in the cash flows attributable to the hedged risk during the period for which the hedge is designated.
 
In respect of cash flow hedging, a forecast transaction that is a hedged item must be at a highly probable level and cause exposure to cash flow changes that may ultimately affect profit and loss.
 
Changes in fair value of derivatives used to hedge cash flows in respect of the effective part of the hedge are recognized through other comprehensive income or loss directly in a capital reserve for hedges. For the non-effective part, the changes in fair value are recognized in profit and loss. The amount accumulated in a capital reserve for hedges is reclassified to the hedged assets in the statement of financial position or income statement in the period in which the cash flows affect such assets or the income statement, respectively, and is presented in the same line item in the financial statements as the hedged item.
 
If the hedging instrument no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, expires or is sold, terminated or exercised, hedge accounting is discontinued. The cumulative profit or loss previously recognized through other comprehensive income or loss and presented in the hedging capital reserve remains in the reserve until the projected transaction occurs or is no longer expected to occur. If the forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative profit or loss previously recognized in the hedging capital reserve is reclassified to profit and loss. When the hedged item is a non-financial asset, the amount recognized in the capital reserve for hedges is added to the carrying amount of the asset when it is recognized.
 
Derivatives not used for hedge accounting
 
Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, changes in fair value of non-hedge derivatives are recognized in profit and loss as finance income (expenses).


3.
Derecognition of total financial liabilities

The Company derecognizes a financial liability when, and only when, it is settled - i.e., when the obligation defined in the contract expires or when it is discharged or canceled. A financial liability is extinguished when the debtor pays the liability by a cash payment, other financial assets, goods or services, or is legally discharged of the liability.

3.
Derecognition of total financial liabilities (cont.)

In the event of a change in the terms of an existing financial liability, the Company assesses whether the terms of the liability are materially different from the existing terms, taking into account qualitative and quantitative considerations.
 
When a substantial modification is made to the terms of an existing financial liability, or when a liability is exchanged with another liability with materially different terms between the Company and an existing lender, the transaction is accounted for as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The differences between these two financial liabilities in the financial statements are recognized in profit or loss.
 
When an immaterial modification is made to the terms of an existing liability, or when a liability is exchanged with another liability whose terms are not materially different, between the Company and an existing lender, the Company revises the liability amount, i.e., discounts the new cash flows by the original effective interest rate, and the difference is carried to profit or loss.


E.
Property, plant & equipment


1.
Recognition and measurement

Property, plant and equipment items are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation.
 
The cost of property, plant and equipment includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the purchase of the asset. The cost of self-constructed assets includes the cost of materials, direct labor costs, any additional costs directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and the condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the estimated cost for decommissioning and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located, as well as capitalized borrowing costs. Advance payments made in respect of self-constructed assets are recognized as part of the cost of the said equipment.
 
The Company recognized in the income statement, all development costs in respect of projects that it develops until a stage at which, in management’s opinion, the feasibility of construction of the project has been proven. From the stage at which the project is feasible, the development costs and subsequently the construction costs are capitalized to the project costs. A project is considered feasible when the Company’s management believes that the likelihood of the project materializing and generating future economic benefits is greater than the likelihood that it will not materialize.
 
Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is recognized under the cost of that equipment.
 
Spare parts, auxiliary equipment, emergency inventory and backup equipment are classified as property, plant and equipment when they meet the definition of property, plant and equipment under IAS 16, Property, Plant and Equipment.
 
When major parts of a property, plant and equipment item (including costs of periodic tests) have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.
 
The Company has BOT service concession arrangements in accordance with the provisions of IFRIC 12, Service Concession Arrangements (hereinafter - the “Interpretation”); for each arrangement, the Company assesses whether it falls within the scope of the Interpretation. When the grantor does not control the arrangement, the Company classifies the infrastructure, which is the subject matter of the arrangement, as property, plant & equipment in accordance with the provisions of IAS 16.

2.
Compensation in respect of delay in the construction of a power plant
 
In cases where the Group is entitled to compensation in respect of delay in the construction of a power plant, the Group assesses the economic substance of the compensation. If the compensation is intended to cover losses incurred to the Company in practice, or loss of income, it is recognized in profit and loss. In other cases, the compensation amount is generally offset against the cost of property, plant and equipment.


3.
Depreciation
 
Depreciation is a systematic allocation of the depreciable amount of an asset over its useful life. The amortizable amount is the cost of the asset, or another amount that replaces the cost, less its residual value. An asset is depreciated from the date it is ready for use, meaning the date it reaches the location and condition required for it to operate in the manner intended by management.
 
Amortization is recognized in the income statement (unless included in the carrying amount of another asset) on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of each part of the property, plant and equipment items, since this method reflects the expected consumption pattern of the future economic benefits inherent in the asset in the best way possible.
 
Estimates regarding depreciation methods, useful life and residual value are reviewed at the end of each reporting year and adjusted as needed.
 
The estimated useful life of the principal assets (including in associates) for the current period is as follows:
 

Power plants
Maintenance work
Roads and buildings
Back up diesel fuel
Freehold land is not depreciated.
23 - 40 years
1.5 - 15 years
23 - 30 years
by consumption


F.
Intangible assets


1.
Goodwill
 
Goodwill resulting from the acquisition of subsidiaries is presented under intangible assets. For information regarding measurement of goodwill upon initial recognition, see Section A1 above.
In subsequent periods, goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. For details, see Notes 11B and 11C.


2
Other intangible assets
 
Other intangible assets acquired by the Group that have a defined useful life are measured at cost less amortization.


3.
Amortization
 
Amortization is the systematic allocation of the amortizable amount of an intangible asset over its useful life. The amortizable amount is the cost of the asset, less its residual value.
 
Amortization is recognized in the income statement on a straight-line basis, over the estimated useful lives of the intangible assets from the date they are available for use, since these methods most closely reflect the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits best embodied in each asset. Goodwill is not amortized systematically unless tested for impairment at least once a year.

G.
Impairment

Non-financial assets

Timing of impairment testing

The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets, other than inventory and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated.

Determining cash-generating units

For the purpose of impairment testing, assets which cannot be specifically tested are grouped into the smallest asset class that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or other groups of assets (hereinafter - a “cash-generating unit").

Measurement of recoverable amount

The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the higher of its value in use and its fair value less disposal costs. When determining the value in use, the Group discounts the projected future cash flows at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the estimates of the market participants regarding the time value of money and the specific risks attributed to the asset. For the purpose of impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest asset class that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or other groups of assets (hereinafter - a “cash-generating unit").

Recognition of impairment loss

Impairment losses are recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount and are recognized in profit and loss. With regard to cash-generating units that include goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit, after grossing up the goodwill balance, with the non-controlling interests measured according to their proportionate share in the net identifiable assets, exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses recognized in respect of cash-generating units are first allocated to impairment of the carrying value of goodwill attributed to those units and subsequently to impairment of the carrying value of the other assets in the cash-generating units, proportionally.


H.
Employee benefits

Defined contribution plans

The Group has a defined contribution plan. A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which the Group pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. The Group’s obligations for contributions to defined contribution plans are recognized as an expense in profit and loss in the periods during which related services are rendered by the employees. Liabilities for contributions into a defined contribution plan that are due for payment within more than 12 months from the end of the period in which the employees rendered the service are recognized at their present value.

Share-based compensation transactions
 
The fair value at the grant date of share-based compensation bonuses to the Company’s employees is recognized as a salary expense in parallel to an increase in equity over the period in which a non-contingent entitlement to the bonuses is achieved. The amount recognized as an expense in respect of share-based compensation bonuses that is subject to vesting conditions that are service terms is adjusted to reflect the number of bonuses that are expected to vest.
 
The fair value of the liability for employees for rights to share in the profits of the CPV Group was treated as a cash-settled share-based payment and recognized as an expense against a corresponding increase in liability, over the period in which the unconditional right to payment is achieved. The liability is remeasured at each reporting date until the settlement date. CPV Group’s profit sharing rights are based on CPV Group’s fair value. The changes in the fair value of the liability were included in general and administrative expenses in the income statement.


I.
Revenues

The Group recognizes income when the customer gains control over the promised goods or services. The income is measured at fair value of the consideration to which the Group expects to be entitled in exchange for the goods or services promised to the customer, other than amounts collected for third parties.

Revenues from the sale of electricity and steam are recognized in the period in which the sale takes place in accordance with the price set in the electricity sale agreements with customers and the quantities of electricity supplied.

The Group has two main types of income:


1.
Revenues from the sale of electricity and steam to private customers, which are recognized in the period in which the electricity was supplied, and in accordance with the price set in the agreements with the customers.
 

2.
Income from provision of power plants’ capacity are recognized over the period during which capacity was provided.
 
When setting the transaction price, the Groups takes into consideration fixed amounts and amounts that may vary as a result of discounts, credits, price concessions, penalties, claims and disputes and contract modifications that the consideration in their respect has not yet been agreed by the parties.
 
The Group includes in the transaction price the variable consideration amount, or part thereof, when it is highly probable that a significant reversal of the recognized accumulated income amount will not occur when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration has been subsequently resolved. At the end of each reporting period and if necessary, the Group revises the estimate of the variable consideration included in the transaction price.
 
Furthermore, the Group recognizes compensation paid to customers in respect of delays in the commercial operation date of power plants on payment date within long-term prepaid expenses, and amortizes them throughout the term of the contract, from the date of commercial operation of the power plant, against a decrease in revenues from contracts with customers.

I.
Revenues (cont.)

Upon the sale of electricity to private customers, the Group collects from the customers costs in respect of public utilities provided by Israel Electric Corporation (hereinafter - the “IEC”), whose rates are set by the Israeli Electricity Authority. Those utility costs are transferred by the Group to the Israel Electric Corporation without a margin. The Group views the sale of electricity and the sale of the utility services as a single performance obligation, since these are services and/or commodities that are inseparable. Since the customer views the Company as its main supplier in respect of this performance obligation according to indicators defined above, the Group recognizes the income at the gross amount of the proceeds.


J.
Finance income and expenses
 
Finance expenses include, among other things, interest expenses in respect of loans and debentures received, losses from derivative financial instruments recognized in profit and loss, losses from hedging instruments recognized in profit and loss and early repayment fees of loans. Borrowing costs are recognized in the income statement using the effective interest method.
 
Finance income includes interest income in respect of loans granted and amounts invested, and gains from derivative financial instruments recognized in profit and loss.
 
Gains and losses on exchange rate differences in respect of financial assets and liabilities are reported on a net basis as finance income or finance expenses, depending on their position (net profit or loss).

In statements of cash flows, interest received is presented under cash flows from investing activities. Interest paid is presented under cash flows from financing activities.

Borrowing costs capitalized to qualifying assets and paid are presented as part of the costs to construct property, plant, and equipment under cash flows from investing activities. Cash flows paid (or received) in respect of derivative financial instruments used to hedge loans are presented under cash flows from financing activities.


K.
Expenses for income tax
 
Income taxes include current and deferred taxes. Income taxes are recognized in the income statement unless the tax derives from a business combination or are recognized directly to equity or other comprehensive income if derived from items recognized directly in equity or other comprehensive income.

Current taxes
 
Current tax is the tax amount expected to be paid (or received) on taxable income in the tax year, when it is calculated at the tax rates under the applicable laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted as of the reporting date. Current taxes include taxes in respect of previous years.

Expenses for income tax (cont.)
 
Deferred taxes
 
Deferred taxes are recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their value for tax purposes. The Group does not recognize deferred taxes in respect of the following temporary differences: (1) initial recognition of goodwill; (2) initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a transaction that does not constitute a business combination and does not affect the accounting profit and the profit for tax purposes; (3) the differences are due to an investment in subsidiaries, if the Group controls the reversal date of the difference and, they are not expected to reverse in the foreseeable future, whether by way of disposal of an investment or by way of dividend distribution in respect of an investment.

Deferred taxes are measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.

A deferred tax asset for carryforward losses, tax benefits and deductible temporary differences is recognized if it is probable that future taxable income can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are examined on every reporting date, and if the attributed tax benefits are not expected to materialize, they are amortized.

Deferred tax assets which were not recognized are reassessed on every reporting date and recognized if the expectation changes such that future taxable income will be available against which they can be utilized.

Offsetting current and deferred tax assets and liabilities

The Group offsets deferred tax assets and liabilities if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they are attributed to the same taxable income levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable company, or on various tax entities, but they intend to settle deferred tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their current tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.

Provision in respect of uncertain tax positions, including additional tax and interest expenses, is recognized when it is more likely than not that the Group will need to use its economic resources to settle the obligation.


L.
Capitalization of borrowing costs

A qualifying asset is an asset that requires a substantial period to prepare it for its intended use or sale. Specific and non-specific borrowing costs are capitalized to a qualifying asset during the period required for construction and completion until the date it is ready for its intended use. Other borrowing costs are expensed in profit and loss as incurred.

M.
Leases


1.
Leased assets and lease liabilities
 
Contracts that confer on the Group the right to control the use of an asset in respect of a lease for a period of time in exchange for a consideration are accounted for as leases. Upon initial recognition, the Group recognizes a liability in the amount of the present value of the future lease payments (such payments do not include certain variable lease payments), and at the same time, the Group recognizes a right-of-use asset in the amount of the lease liability, adjusted for the lease payments - prepaid or accrued - plus direct costs incurred in the lease.

Since the interest rate implicit in the Group’s leases cannot be determined, the Group uses the incremental interest rate of the lessee.

Subsequent to initial recognition, the right-of-use asset is accounted for using the cost model and amortized throughout the lease term or throughout the useful life of the asset, whichever is earlier.


2.
Lease term
 
The lease term is determined as the period in which the lease is non-terminable, together with the periods covered by an option to extend or terminate the lease if it is reasonably certain that the lessee will exercise or not to exercise the option, respectively.


3.
Amortization of right-of-use asset

Subsequent to the lease commencement date, the right-of-use asset is measured using the cost method, less accumulated depreciation and accrued impairment losses adjusted for remeasurement of the lease liability. The depreciation is calculated on the straight line basis over the useful life or the contractual lease term, whichever is earlier: Land - 49-24 years and other assets - 16-12 years.


N.
Agreements with the tax equity partner (relevant only for associates)

CPV Group entered into agreements with parties that have a federal tax liability in the US (hereinafter - the “Tax Equity Partners”) for the purpose of financing the construction and operation of photovoltaic projects in the US through associates (hereinafter- the “Projects”). According to the terms of the arrangements, the Tax Equity Partners invested a certain amount in projects immediately prior to their commercial operation date in exchange for the issuance of units which confer upon them a pro rata share of the project’s free distributable cash flow until reaching a predetermined rate of return, as well as the right to receive tax benefits arising from the project. The projects’ tax benefits include an ITC (Investment Tax Credit) or PTC (Production Tax Credit) as well as a proportionate share in the taxable income of the projects (hereinafter - the “Tax Benefits”).

Future amounts that will be paid to the Tax Equity Partners out of the free cash flow for distribution constitute a financial liability, which is measured using an amortized cost model in accordance with the effective interest method. The tax credit is accounted for as a government grant in accordance with the provisions of IAS 20. The Company opted to present the tax credit as a deferred income, which will be carried to profit or loss over the useful life of the photovoltaic facilities or over the period of eligibility to benefits, as applicable.

The amounts attributed to the Tax Equity Partner’s right to receive a proportionate share of the taxable income of the Partnership are recognized as a non-financial liability, which is carried to profit and loss over the arrangement period, with the tax equity partners. In addition, once the tax equity partners reach the predetermined rates of return set in the agreement (hereinafter- the “flip point”), the share of the tax equity partners decreases.

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted
 
IFRS 18, Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements

This standard supersedes IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements. The objective of the standard is to provide improved structure and content for the financial statements, specifically the Statement of Profit or Loss. The standard includes new disclosure and presentation requirements, and requirements which have been retained from IAS 1 with slight changes in wording. Generally, expenses in the Statement of Profit or Loss shall be classified into three categories: operating profit, investment income, and finance income. The standard also includes requirements to provide separate disclosure in the financial statements regarding the use of NON-GAAP measures, and specific guidance on aggregation and disaggregation of items in the financial statements and notes.

The standard’s initial application date is for annual periods commencing on January 1, 2027; early application is permitted. The Group is studying the effects of the standard on the Financial Statements.

NOTE 4 – DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUE
 
In determining the fair value of an asset or liability, the Group uses as many observable inputs as possible. Fair value measurements are divided into three levels in the fair value hierarchy, based on the inputs used in the valuation, as follows:
 
Level 1 - Quoted (unadjusted) prices in an active market for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2 - Observable inputs, directly or indirectly, which are not included in Level 1 above.
 
Level 3 - Data that are not based on observable market inputs.
 
As part of the accounting policy principles and disclosure requirements, the Group is required to determine the fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. The fair value is determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes using the methods described below. Additional information regarding the assumptions used to determine the fair values is provided in the notes referring to that asset or liability.


A.
Trade and other receivables and debit balances

The fair value of trade and other receivables is determined upon initial recognition based on the present value of the future cash flows, discounted at the market interest rate as of the measurement date. With regard to most of the Group’s trade and other receivables, since the credit period is short and constitutes the accepted credit in the industry, the future consideration is not capitalized, and subsequent to initial recognition the carrying amount approximates their fair value. The carrying amount of cash and restricted deposits as well as long-term receivables also approximates their fair value, since those assets bear interest at a rate similar to the interest rate accepted in the market for similar assets.


B.
Derivative financial instruments
 
The fair value of foreign currency forwards is determined by using quotations of a trading system that quotes the market input entered by financial entities and used to calculate the fair value. The fair value is determined by discounting the future value arising from the difference between the opening price and the price as of measurement date.
 
F-33

OPC Energy Ltd.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2024

NOTE 4 – DETERMINATION OF FAIR VALUE (cont.)
 

B.
Derivative financial instruments (cont.)

The fair value of interest rate swaps is determined by using quotations of a trading system that quotes the market input entered by financial entities and used to calculate the fair value. The fair value is determined by discounting the estimated future cash flows based on the conditions and the term to maturity of each contract, using market interest rates for a similar instruments at the measurement date. When determining the fair value, the Company takes into account the credit risk of the parties to the contract.
 
The fair value of CPI swap contracts is determined in accordance with the discounted NIS amount payable in nominal NIS interest and the discounted expected cash flow from NIS real interest. When determining the fair value, the Company takes into account the credit risk of the parties to the contract.
 
The fair value of long-term contracts in respect of electricity prices is set using quotations of the relevant future electricity prices.
 
 For further details, see Note 21C.
 

C.
Non-derivative financial liabilities

The fair value of certain trade and other payables is determined upon initial recognition based on the present value of the future cash flows, discounted at the market interest rate as of the measurement date. With regard to most of the Group’s trade and other payables, since the credit period is short, the future consideration is not discounted, and subsequent to initial recognition the carrying amount approximates their fair value.

The fair value of all other financial liabilities, which is determined subsequent to initial recognition for disclosure purposes, is calculated as follows: bank loans and loans from non-controlling interests - based on the present value of the future cash flows in respect of the principal and interest component, discounted by the relevant rating curve; marketable debentures - their quoted price on closing of trade as of measurement date.


D.
Share-based compensation transactions

In Israel

The fair value of employee options is measured using the Black & Scholes option pricing model. The model's assumptions include the share price as of measurement date, the option’s exercise price, expected volatility of the share, the option’s contractual term, expected dividend yield, and risk-free interest rate (based on government bonds). Service terms are not taken into account when determining the fair value. The RSUs’ fair value was estimated based on the Company’s share price at grant date.

In CPV Group (cash-settled)

The fair value of employees’ profit sharing plan, which is calculated every reporting period for measurement purposes, is determined using an option pricing model (OPM). The model's assumptions include the estimated fair value of the plan, which is derived from the value of CPV Group, and the base mechanism that was set in the plan - all as of the measurement date, expected standard deviation, expected life and risk-free interest rate (on the basis of US government bonds). Service terms are not taken into account when determining the fair value. For further details – see Note 16C.

Projects under construction in Israel - material construction and equipment agreements
 
Sorek 2

In May 2020, Sorek 2 (a special-purpose company wholly‑owned by OPC Power Plants) signed an agreement with SMS IDE Ltd. (hereinafter - “IDE”), which won a tender of the State of Israel for the construction, operation, maintenance and transfer of a seawater desalination facility on the Sorek B site, whereby Sorek 2 is to supply equipment, construct, operate, and maintain a (natural gas-fired) energy generation facility on the site of the Desalination Facility, with a production capacity of approx. 87 MW (hereinafter – the “Generation Facility”). Sorek 2’s engagement with IDE includes, among other things, undertakings by Sorek 2 to construct the Generation Facility within the time frames set in the agreement (when, among other things, deviation from the time frames may require compensation subject to the provisions of the agreement), and an undertaking to supply energy at a certain capacity and scope to the desalination facility over a period that will end 25 years from the commercial operation date of the desalination facility. At the end of the aforesaid period, ownership of the Generation Facility will be transferred to the State. To secure Sorek 2’s commitments under the construction agreement of the generation facility, the Company provided IDE guarantees that will remain valid throughout the term of the construction agreement.

In June 2021, Sorek 2 contracted with BHI CO. Ltd. (hereinafter - “BHI”) a South Korean-owned corporation that will serve as the project’s construction contractor entered into a “lump sum turn-key” EPC agreement, under which the Construction Contractor will build the said generation facility, all in accordance with the milestones, terms and dates set with respect to each of the agreement’s components. An IDE group corporation is also a party to the Construction Agreement (in its capacity as the commissioning party), under which systems are supplied to the desalination facility, for which the said corporation is required to pay.

Sorek 2’s share in the amount payable to the Construction Contractor is estimated at approx. USD 42 million (as of the signing date of the agreement); this amount also includes the amount payable for the purchase of the gas turbines.1 The consideration as per the agreement is paid in various foreign currencies, specifically the USD and the EUR. As part of its currency risk management policy, Sorek 2 partially hedged its exposure to changes in the exchange rates under the construction agreement through forwards and opted to implement cash flow hedge accounting.

In addition, the construction agreement includes provisions that are generally accepted in agreements of this type, including with regard to capped agreed compensation in respect of delays, non-compliance with execution and availability requirements; the agreement also sets the scope of liability and requirements for provision of guarantees in the various stages of the project.


1The gas turbine shall be supplied by companies of the General Electric (GE) group by virtue of an equipment supply agreement that was originally signed by Sorek 2 and assigned to the construction contractor under the same terms.

Projects under construction in Israel - material construction and equipment agreements (cont.)
 
In 2023, the Construction Contractor served Sorek 2 with a force majeure notice following the outbreak of the War. During the reporting period, following an escalation in the state of war, a notice was issued regarding the evacuation of the contractors’ migrant workers from Israel. Upon receiving these notices, Sorek 2 notified IDE and the State of the above notices of events stating that, due to the expected schedule overruns, as well as due to the migrant workers’ evacuation from the site, schedule overruns and construction completion delays are expected. Such delays may trigger an increase in project costs beyond the expected costs.

It is noted that a delay in the commercial operation beyond the original contractual date, which is not deemed a justified delay as defined in the project agreements, may trigger the payment of a limited-rate graduated monthly compensation (taking into consideration the duration of the delay, with a delay beyond the utilization of the compensation cap possibly giving rise to a termination right). It is hereby clarified that, during the first delay period, the amount of the compensation in respect of unjustified delay is immaterial.

As of the report approval date, the ultimate consequences of these delays (including other potential delays), considering, inter alia, various force majeure claims that have not yet been fully investigated to date, are uncertain.

Zomet Power Plant
 
In January 2020, the ILA approved the designation of an area of approx. 85 dunams for construction of a power plant for electricity generation by Zomet. In January 2020, the ILA and Kibbutz Netiv HLH (hereinafter - the “Kibbutz”) signed a development agreement for the Land, effective until November 5, 2024, and after fulfillment of its terms, a lease agreement will be signed for a term of 24 years and 11 months from approval of the transaction, namely until November 4, 2044. The lease contract allows the extension of the lease term subject to the extension of the electricity generation license, and accordingly subject to the ILA’s procedures that will be in effect at that time.
 
In addition, in January 2020, Zomet and the Kibbutz signed an agreement of principles for the founding of a joint corporation, which was established by Zomet and the Kibbutz as a limited partnership,2 to which the rights to the Land were transferred upon approval of the transaction by the ILA in May 2020. The consideration for the rights of the Kibbutz to the land under which a development agreement with the ILA can be signed amounted to NIS 30 million. In February 2020, an updated lease agreement was also signed according to which the Joint Corporation, as the owner of the Land, will lease the Land to Zomet in favor of the project.
 
In January 2020, the ILA issued a financial specification of the capitalization fees, according to which the value of the Land (excluding development expenses) was estimated at approx. NIS 207 million (hereinafter - the “Initial Assessment"). In order to complete the Land transaction, in January 2020 Zomet settled the payment of 75% of the Initial Assessment on behalf of the Joint Corporation and through the Kibbutz. The Agreement in Principle clarified that the Kibbutz acted as a trustee of the Joint Corporation when it signed the Development Agreement with the ILA and acted as an agent of the Joint Company when it signed the financial specification. Furthermore, the Company provided the remaining balance (25%) of the Initial Assessment as a bank guarantee in favor of the ILA.

In January 2021, a final assessment was issued by the ILA in respect of the land, whereby the value of the usage fees for the land amounts to approx. NIS 200 million (hereinafter – the “Final Assessment”). Accordingly, a refund was received in respect of the difference paid compared with the Initial Assessment. In November 2021, the Joint Corporation filed an appraisal appeal on the final assessment and in January 2023, a decision was issued regarding the first legal objection, whereunder the final assessment amount was reduced to approx. NIS 154 million. In May 2023, Zomet appealed against the decision regarding the appeal and in October 2024, Zomet withdrew its appeal on the decision. Accordingly, Zomet has paid the ILA an immaterial amount subsequent to the report date and has been refunded the guarantee of approx. NIS 58 million it had given to the ILA.

The Ramat Beka renewable energy project
 
On May 10, 2023, the Group - through OPC Power Plants (hereinafter - the “Winning Bidder”) - was announced the winner of a tender issued by the ILA for planning and an option to purchase leasehold rights in land, for the construction of renewable energy electricity generation facilities using photovoltaic technology in combination with storage, for three compounds in the Neot Hovav Industrial Local Council, over a total area of approx. 2,270 dunam (hereinafter - the “Previous Tender”). The Group’s bids in the Tender totaled approx. NIS 484 million, in the aggregate, for all three Tender Compounds.
 
Additionally, on June 30, 2024, it was announced that the Group - through OPC Power Plants - won a further tender issued by the Israel Land Authority for planning and an option to purchase leasehold rights in land for the construction of renewable energy electricity generation facilities using photovoltaic technology in combination with storage with respect to two compounds with an aggregate area of approx. 1,617 dunams (hereinafter - the “Two Compounds”), which are in proximity to the compounds in respect of which the Group won the previous tender. The Group’s bids in the Additional Tender total approx. NIS 890 million, in the aggregate, for the two Compounds (hereinafter - the “Current Tender”).
 
Under the terms and conditions of the Previous and Current Tenders, the bids amounts shall be paid in the following manner for each of the compounds: (1) With respect to participating in the Tenders, the Group has provided a guarantee of approx. NIS 5 million for each of the compounds which are the subject matter of the Previous Tender (a total of NIS 15 million) and subject matter of the Current Tender (a total of NIS 10 million), which - in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Tender - were realized upon winning and will be deducted from the first payment, as stated below; (2) In August 2023 and September 2024, further amounts totaling approx. NIS 97 million and approx. NIS 178 million were paid, which were comprised of amounts which constitute 20% of the bid amount for each compound in respect of a planning authorization agreement for the period prescribed in the tender documents of the Previous and Current Tenders, respectively; (3) Upon approval of a new outline plan (if any) under which the project may be constructed, lease agreements will be signed for a period of 24 years and 11 months, to build and operate the project(s), against payment of the remaining 80% of the bid amount per compound. To clarify, approx. 20% of the said bid amount paid will not be refunded to the Winning Bidder even if the project(s)’ development and planning procedures never develop into an authorized plan and lease agreements are not signed.
 
The Company believes that the proximity of the compounds, which are the subject matter of the current tender, to the compounds included in the previous tender, which is under development, constitutes a significant and unique advantage for OPC Power Plants, which is promoting a consolidated project covering all compounds and subject to appropriate development procedures.
 
As of the approval date of the financial statements, it is uncertain that approvals, consents, or actions required for the completion of the project/s will be completed with respect to any of the compounds.
 
On July 23, 2024 OPC Power Plants received purchase tax assessments in connection with the Previous Tender amounting to approx. NIS 29 million. OPC Power Plants disagrees with the Israel Tax Authority’s position and its financial demands as included in the purchase tax assessments, due to, among other things, the Company’s position that the arrangement as per the Israel Land Authority’s tender does not establish a “right in land”. Subsequent to the report date, OPC Power Plants appealed the purchase tax assessment. As of the report date, the Company is of the opinion that since the chances of its position being allowed are higher than the chances that it will be dismissed, no provision was made in respect of the assessment amount.


2   Composition of the Joint Corporation: (1) The general partner, Zomet HLH General Partner Ltd. (1%) held by Zomet (74%) and the Kibbutz (26%); (2) The limited partners are Zomet (73%) and the Kibbutz (26%).

NOTE 11 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS (cont.)
 

B.
Annual impairment testing of goodwill arising as part of the acquisition of the Gat Power Plant

As of the report date, goodwill amounting to approx. NIS 220 million - which arose from the acquisition of the Gat Power Plant - reflects the synergy between Israeli power plants’ activity, whose business model is based on sale to private customers (mostly Rotem, Hadera and Gat).
 
The annual impairment testing of goodwill as of December 31, 2024, was carried out at the level of the cash-generating unit comprising the three power plants (Rotem, Hadera and Gat) (hereinafter - the “Cash‑Generating Unit”), since this is the lowest level at which goodwill is subject to monitoring for internal reporting purposes.
 
The impairment testing was carried out by calculating the recoverable amount of the Rotem Power Plant only in accordance with a value in use based on the DCF (discounted cash flows) method.
 
Following are the key assumptions used in determining Rotem’s value in use:


A.
Forecast years - represent the period spanning from 2025 to 2043 and are based on the estimate of the economic life of the power plant and its value as of the end of the forecast period.

B.
Generation Component forecasts and natural gas prices, which are not backed by an agreement - are based on market forecasts received from external and independent information sources.

C.
An annual long-term inflation rate of 2.5%.

D.
Weighted average cost of capital (WACC) - 8%.
 
As of December 31, 2024, the recoverable amount of the Rotem Power Plant alone is estimated at approx. NIS 4.3 billion, which exceeds the carrying amount of the cash-generating unit by approx. NIS 2.7 billion, and therefore, no impairment loss was recognized.
 

C.
Goodwill impairment in respect of Gnrgy, which was recognized prior to its sale in the third quarter of 2024

As part of the acquisition of Gnrgy in December 2021, the Company recognized goodwill totaling approx. NIS 42 million. In 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized impairment losses on its investment in Gnrgy at an aggregate amount equal to the full goodwill balance (in 2024 - approx. NIS 19 million and in 2023 - approx. NIS 23 million), which was included in the other expenses, net line item, based, among other things, on the separation agreement between the Company and the other shareholder in Gnrgy (49%) and the completion of the transaction for the sale of Gnrgy shares by virtue of this agreement in the third quarter of 2024; for further details, see Note 23A4.

Corporate financing agreements in Israel
 
On August 11, 2024 OPC Israel (hereinafter - the “Borrower”) engaged in a financing agreement with Bank Hapoalim Ltd. and a financing agreement with Bank Leumi le-Israel B.M. (hereinafter - the “Lenders”) for the provision of loans totaling NIS 1.65 billion, which were advanced on August 15, 2024 and served mainly for early repayment of the project financing of Zomet - amounting to approx. NIS 1,144 million (including approx. NIS 10 million in accrued interest and approx. NIS 8 million as an early repayment fee) - and the project financing of Gat amounting to approx. NIS 443 million (including approx. NIS 4 million in accrued interest and approx. NIS 4 million as an early repayment fee), and for the financing of the Borrower’s activity as defined in the Financing Agreements. Most of the amount required for the Early Repayment of the Project Credit was advanced to Zomet and Gat by the Borrower thorough intercompany loans.
 
In respect of the abovementioned early repayment, the Company recognized in the reporting period, one-off finance expenses totaling approx. NIS 49 million under the loss from extinguishment of financial liabilities line item, of which approx. NIS 12 million are in respect of early repayment fees including in the above repayment amounts, and approx. NIS 37 million in respect of amortization of deferred finance costs (non-cash flow).

Under the Financing Agreements, the Borrower undertook not to place liens on, or provide collateral for, its assets, including its holdings in subsidiaries, except for certain allowed pledges as defined in the Financing Agreements, mostly for the purpose of existing and/or future project financing (for the Hadera Power Plant) (if any), under the defined terms and conditions.

Furthermore, the Borrower’s subsidiaries provided the Lenders with an undertaking not to take credit, excluding existing and/or future Project Credit (for the Hadera Power Plant) and except with respect to activity in the ordinary course of business, all in accordance with the defined terms and conditions.

The Financing Agreements include various undertakings of the Borrower and grounds, upon the fulfillment of which the Lenders will be allowed to call for immediate repayment of the loans (subject to remediation periods or to amounts set if applicable under the circumstances),4 which include, among other things, failure to make payments in respect of the loan on the dates which were set for that purpose, liquidation procedures, receivership, insolvency or debt arrangements of the Borrower as set forth in the Financing Agreements, change of control in the Company or the Borrower under defined circumstances and conditions, certain events which have an adverse effect on the Borrower’s activity as set forth in the Financing Agreements, restructuring - except for certain defined exceptions, a change in the area of activity of the Borrower under set conditions, restrictions on the sale of assets under set conditions, failure to comply with the following financial covenants in accordance with the terms and conditions which were set (except for cases where a certain deviation does not constitute grounds subject to the provisions regarding additional interest as detailed below), and a cross-default clause where the Borrower’s debt is called for immediate repayment upon the fulfillment of certain set terms and conditions.

In addition, provisions were set with regard to fees, as is generally accepted in financing agreements, including transaction and early repayment fees.

NOTE 16 – EMPLOYEE BENEFITS
 

A.
Post-employment benefit plans – defined contribution plan
 
The Group has a defined contribution plan in respect of its liabilities to employees in Israel and the USA. The amount recognized as expense in 2024 and 2023 is approx. NIS 13 million and in 2022 - a total of approx. NIS 10 million.
 
It should be noted that the Group has defined benefit plans in non-material amounts.
 

B.
Equity compensation plan in Israel

In July 2017, the Company's board of directors (after the approval of the Company's Compensation Committee) approved an options plan (hereinafter – the “Options Plan”) for offerees. Under the plan, the Company will allocate to the offerees, whose identity will be determined by the board of directors (and the general meeting of the shareholders, as the case may be) at its sole discretion, non-marketable and non-transferable options (other than transfer to successors in the event of death, as set out in the Options Plan) that are exercisable for the Company’s shares, in an amount to be instructed by the board of directors, as the case may be. The options are non-marketable and non-transferable. Each option will confer on the offeree the right to receive from the Company, by way of an allocation, one ordinary share of NIS 0.01 par value, at the exercise price to be determined for each offeree, and which will be at least the average share price in the 30 trading days prior to the board decision on the allocation and subject to certain adjustments set out in the Options Plan. The ordinary shares to be allocated following exercise of the options will have the same rights as the Company’s ordinary shares, immediately upon their allotment. The exercise price is subject to certain adjustments (including in respect of dividend distribution, issuance of rights, etc.).
 
In May 2018, the employee Options Plan was revised to an alternative for allocating restricted stock units (hereinafter – the “RSUs”) and an amendment to the adjustment mechanism in the event of change of control. Each RSU will confer the right to receive from the Company, by way of an allocation and for no consideration, one ordinary share of the Company of NIS 0.01 par value of the Company. The RSUs will not confer on the holder any right conferred on a shareholder, prior to their exercise for shares of the Company, including a voting right, with the exception of the right to receive an amount equivalent to a dividend, should the Company decide to distribute a dividend.
 
The provisions of Section 102 to the Income Tax Ordinance apply to the allocated options. The allocation was made through a trustee in the capital gains track. In accordance with this track, the Company is not entitled to claim a tax deduction for amounts credited to an employee as a benefit, including amounts recorded as a salary benefit in the Company’s financial statements, for the options received by the offeree under the plan, other than a yield benefit component, if any, determined on the allocation date or grant date.
 
From time to time, the Company allocates options and RSUs to offerees in several allocations in an equity track (with a trustee) in accordance with Section 102 of the Income Tax Ordinance, in four equal tranches, which are exercisable at net (hereinafter – the “Offered Securities”). The vesting terms and expiration dates of the offered securities are as follows:

NOTE 17 – TAXES ON INCOME


A.
Information about the tax environment in which the Group operates


1.
Corporate tax rate
 
Israel - The rate of corporate tax in Israel between 2022 and 2024 is 23%.

USA
The corporate tax rate applicable to the Group’s US operations is composed of two main tax systems: (1) Federal corporate tax at a rate of 21% and (2) state tax, depending of the state where the operations are carried out, mostly between 2.5% and 11.5%, while the state tax rate constitutes an expense for calculation of the federal tax.

The profits (losses) of investees in the US, which are not taxable entities, are indirectly attributed to the partnership OPC Power (indirectly held by the ICG Energy) based on their share in equity. Profits (losses) of the OPC Power are attributed directly to the partners in accordance with their share in the equity, since according to US tax laws, a partnership and LLC through which the Group operates in the USA are transparent for tax purposes. Therefore, ICG Energy will be attributed the profits (losses) of OPC Power, in which it serves as a limited partner. ICG Energy will be liable to tax in the USA in respect of such profits attributed to it; the tax will be determined in accordance with the federal corporate tax rate and the state tax rate, which constitutes, as aforesaid, an expense for the purpose of calculating the federal tax.

The US tax laws include a limit on finance expenses that may be deducted. The expense limit was 30% of the adjusted taxable income (hereinafter - “ATI”), while in 2018 to 2021, the ATI calculation was based on the Company’s EBITDA, whereas from the 2022 tax year onwards, it is based on EBIT (excluding depreciation and amortization). Furthermore, offsetting of net operating losses (NOL) is limited: in general, losses accrued up to 2018, it may be carried forward for up to 20 years, without any limit to the offset amount in a specific year. Losses accrued thereafter are subject to a time limit but may be generally used to offset up to 80% of the taxable income only.

In addition, the tax system in the US grants various tax benefits to investors in renewable energy projects, including under the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (hereinafter - ”IRA”):


Bonus depreciation - accelerated depreciation at a rate of up to 100%. As from 2023, the accelerated depreciation rate is up to 80% (in 2024 - 60%); this rate will decline by 20% every year, unless the tax benefit will be extended. It is noted that also in the project acquisition procedure, this depreciation may be recognized on the acquisition date.
 

Investment Tax Credit (hereinafter - ”ITC”) - A tax credit of up to 30% of the amount invested in solar assets, and another credit equal to up to 10% of the construction costs of projects that integrate equipment manufactured in the USA or constructed at certain sites (”Brownfield Sites”).

For the avoidance of doubt, the Company’s Board of Directors will be permitted at any time, taking into account business considerations and in accordance with the law, to change the abovementioned dividend rate or to decide to refrain from any distribution, such as was the case as of the date of the report, taking into account the Company’s business needs, the market conditions in the environment in which the Company operates, and specifically its strategic plans to expand its activity, all at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

NOTE 21 – FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT


A.
Financial risk management
 

1.
General
 
The Group has operations that expose it to credit, liquidity risks and market risks (foreign currency, interest rate, CPI, and other market price risks). To reduce exposure to these risks, the Group takes various measures, particularly the use of derivative financial instruments, including forward transactions (mainly on foreign currency), index swaps, interest rate swaps; in associates held by CPV Group - transactions for hedging the electricity price in the renewable energy segment and in gas-fired power plants - futures for hedging energy margins.
 

2.
Credit risk
 
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss incurred by the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual liabilities. The Group’s main exposure to credit risk is in respect of the following assets:
 
Trade receivables
 
The Group’s management assesses the exposure to credit risk in respect of customers debts and analyzes their financial resilience in order to determine the type and amount of the collaterals required in the various sale transactions.
 
Most of the Group’s customers have strong financial robustness, therefore sales to them are made without any collateral. In exceptional cases that are considered high risk, in the opinion of the Group companies, they receive adequate collateral to reduce the risks arising from the provision of credit to customers.
 
Cash and cash equivalents and short and long-term deposits (including restricted balances)
 
The Group’s cash and cash equivalents and deposits are deposited mainly in banking corporations, with attention to their financial strength. Therefore, in the Group’s estimation, no significant credit risk is expected in respect of them.
 
Derivative financial instruments
 
Generally, derivative transactions are entered into with banking corporations, noting the financial resilience of those entities. Therefore, in the Group’s estimation, no significant credit risk is expected in respect of them.

A.
Financial risk management (cont.)
 

3.
Liquidity risk
 
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group companies will not be able to meet with their financial liabilities when they are due. The Group’s approach to liquidity risk management is to ensure, to the extent possible, a sufficient liquidity level to meet its liabilities in a timely manner.
 
For the purpose of management of the Group’s liquidity, a mix of short- and long-term financing tools are used, with attention to adjustment of the scope and duration of the long-term liabilities, as well as the financial covenants applicable to the Company and the nature and scope of its business operations.
 
The short term financing tool includes mainly secured and unsecured credit facilities from banking corporations and financial institutions. The long-term financing tools include mainly long-term loans from banking corporations and financial institutions (including as part of project financing) and debentures. For further details, see Notes 14, 15 and 23D.
 
In addition to the financing tools referred to above, from time to time, and as needed, the Company raises capital - by issuing equity instruments - in order to manage its robustness and liquidity. In addition, the Group's dividend policy takes into account the issue of financial strength and liquidity; for details see Note 18C.
 

4.
Market risks
 
Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as the electricity prices, electricity margins, foreign exchange rates, inflation and interest rates shall impact the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument.
 
The Company uses derivative financial instruments as part of the market risk management policy.
 

5.
Currency risk
 
The functional currency of the Company and its Israeli subsidiaries is the shekel, and the functional currency of CPV Group is the USD. Therefore, the exposure of the Group companies in Israel is measured with respect to exchange rate changes of the NIS with respect to other currencies in which they operate. CPV Group enters into agreements mainly in the USD and therefore, it is not materially exposed to foreign currency risk.
 
In its activity in Israel, the Group is exposed to changes in the exchange rate of the USD, both directly and indirectly, due to the natural gas purchases, some of which are linked to the exchange rate of the USD and/or denominated in USD and are linked to the generation tariff (which is partly affected by a change in the USD exchange rate) and include floor prices in USD and on the other hand - linking a significant part of its income to the generation component (which is partially affected by changes in the USD exchange rate). Therefore, despite the fact that an increase in the USD exchange rate increases the cost of natural gas purchased by the group companies in Israel, the structure of income may mitigate the said exposure. However, it is noted that the generation component, which is affected by various parameters and is subject to changes (including due to regulation), is generally revised once a year, and accordingly, there may be timing differences between the effect of the strengthening of the USD on the current cost of gas, and its effect on revenues, and accordingly, on the Company's gross margin.
 
Furthermore, from time to time, Group companies in Israel enter into significant construction and maintenance contracts in various currencies, specifically the USD and the EUR. The Group companies in Israel also partially hedge the exposure to changes in the cash flows from payments in foreign currency (mainly USD and EUR) in respect of EPC and LTSA agreements by the use of forward transactions. As a rule, these contracts will be designated as hedged for the purpose of application of cash flow hedge accounting principles.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2024

NOTE 21 – FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK MANAGEMENT (cont.)
 

A.
Financial risk management (cont.)
 

5.
Currency risk (cont.)

With respect to the Company’s investment in CPV Group, which operates in the USA, and whose functional currency is the USD, generally, a decrease in the USD exchange rate may adversely affect the value of the Company’s USD-denominated investment, and the Company's net income and equity. In addition, when there is a need to raise NIS-denominated sources in Israel to fund the expected investments in CPV Group’s backlog of projects under construction and development, an increase in the USD exchange rate may lead to an increase in the financing required to implement those investments.


6.
CPI risk

Group companies in Israel are exposed to the CPI risk, mainly due to the linkage of a substantial portion of their income to the generation tariff (which is partly affected by changes in the CPI). In addition, the purchases of natural gas are linked to the generation tariff and include a USD floor price. Furthermore, some of the Company’s capital costs and investments are linked to the CPI, whether directly or indirectly. Therefore, despite the fact that an increase in the CPI increases the Company’s costs and investments, the structure of income includes a certain natural protection that mitigates the said exposure.
 
Furthermore, the Debentures (Series B), and some of the long-term loans in Hadera are linked to the Consumer Price Index. In order to mitigate some of the exposure to changes in the CPI with respect to Hadera’s long-term loans, in June 2019, the Group entered into hedging transactions with a banking corporation in order to hedge some of the exposure to the CPI. These contracts were designated as hedges for the purpose of application of cash flow hedge accounting principles.
 

7.
Interest rate risk
 
To reduce the exposure to interest rate changes in Israel (mainly Prime interest), the Group uses a mix of loans (including credit facilities) and debentures in a way that some of the loans and debentures are at fixed interest rates and others at variable interest rates.

Most of CPV Group’s long-term loans and credit facilities (through associates) bear a variable interest rate (mainly SOFR) and in terms of cash flow, are exposed to interest rate changes. To reduce part of the exposure to interest rate risk, CPV Group enters into USD-denominated interest rate swaps to exchange variable USD interest rates for fixed USD interest rates in respect of some of the long-term loans. These transactions are designated as hedged for the purpose of application of cash flow hedge accounting principles.


8.
Other market price risks - electricity margins and prices
 
From time to time, CPV Group (through associates) hedges a certain portion of the capacity of the power plants in the Energy Transition in the USA segment, which changes from one project to another, in order to hedge the fluctuations in electricity prices in short periods (mainly a year). The purpose of the hedging is to fix the energy margin (the margin between the price received for the electricity and the price paid for the gas), by entering into commodities contracts in respect of gas and electricity prices.

Furthermore, in the field of renewable energies (through an associate), CPV Group enters into long-term PPAs and in agreements for the sale of RECs, in a manner that mitigates part of the exposure to changes in electricity margins and prices.

As a rule, the transactions are designated as hedged for the purpose of application of cash flow hedge accounting principles.

NOTE 24 – ASSOCIATES (cont.)


C.
Acquisition of additional interests in associates

In July 2024, the CPV Group entered into a non-binding memorandum of understanding with one party and a binding purchase agreement with another party for the acquisition of additional holdings in the Shore and Maryland power plants. In October 2024, the acquisition of an additional 25% interest in the Maryland Power Plant was completed in accordance with the Acquisition Agreement (further to fulfillment of the conditions precedent and the payment of the consideration by CPV Group); further binding agreements for the acquisition of an additional 31% interest in the Shore Power Plant and an additional 25% in the Maryland Power Plant were signed. On December 12, 2024, after meeting the conditions precedent and carrying out the required actions, the acquisitions pursuant to the Additional Acquisition Agreements were completed.

The amount paid for such transactions - with the addition of CPV’s share attributable to the Acquired Rights (approx. 31%) in the Equity Subscription with respect to the refinancing of the Shore Power Plant18 and totaled approx. USD 80 million (for 100% of the interests) - totaled approx. US 213 million (approx. NIS 770 million). Following the completion of the transactions and as of the report date, the CPV Group has stakes of approx. 69% and 75% in associates Shore and Maryland, respectively.
The total amount paid with respect to the said transactions.  

Given the ownership interests held by the remaining interest holders in the associates, the Company continued to account for the investments in Shore and Maryland using the equity method.

The allocation of the purchase price to CPV Group’s share of the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities was carried out by an external independent appraiser, as detailed below:

   
NIS million
 
Property, plant & equipment
   
1,605
 
Loans
   
(1,091
)
Other identifiable assets and liabilities
   
167
 

The fair value of property, plant and equipment was estimated in accordance with the DCF method by discounting the future cash flows of each project by the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) post-tax. The DCF was performed for periods representing the estimated economic life of the power plants and was revised at the end of the forecast period, based on forecast market prices (specifically electricity margins and capacity) received from external, independent information sources, long-term inflation rate, based on relevant curves and WACC, as accepted for projects of this type.

Subsequent to the reporting period, the CPV Group entered into an agreement to acquire an additional stake in the Shore power plant, subject to the completion of which and to the fulfillment of terms and conditions precedent, which have not yet been met as of the approval date of the Report, its stake in the power plant will stand at approx. 90%. As of the Report approval date, the Company is examining the accounting treatment of the other acquisition.

OPC Energy Ltd.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2024

NOTE 25 – SEGMENT REPORTING

As of the report date the Group has three reportable operating segments, which constitute strategic business units of the Group, and other activities that do not constitute reportable segments.

These strategic business units are managed separately for resource allocation and performance review evaluation due to the fact that some are in different markets, and others require different technology and adjustment of the trading structure of each unit.

Following is a brief description of the business activities of each of the Group’s three operating segments as of the report date:


The Israel Segment (through OPC Israel Holdings, 80%) - Under this operating segment, the Company is engaged in the generation and supply of electricity and energy, mainly to private customers and to the System Operator, and in the initiation, development, construction and operation in Israel of power plants and energy generation facilities powered using natural gas and renewable energy.

US Renewable Energies Segment (through CPV Group, approx. 70.46%) - in this area of operation, the Company engages in the initiation, development, construction and operation of renewable energy power plants (solar and wind) in the USA, and the supply of electricity from renewable sources. Upon completion of a transaction for the introduction of a partner into this segment in the fourth quarter of 2024 as detailed in Note 23E, the activity in this segment is carried out through an associate in which CPV Group has an interest of approx. 66.7%.

US Energy Transition Segment (through CPV Group, approx. 70.46%) - in this area of activity, the Company is engaged in maintenance and operation of conventional energy power plants (natural gas), which supply efficient and reliable electricity in the US. The active power plants in this area of operation are held through associates (which are not consolidated in CPV Group’s financial statements, and accordingly in the Company’s Financial Statements).

In addition, the Company is engaged, through CPV Group, in a number of business activities in the USA, which - as of the report date - are not material to the Group’s operating results (and do not constitute reportable segments in the financial statements):
 
(1) Initiation and development of electricity generation projects (high-efficiency natural gas-fired power plants) with potential to combine carbon capture in the future; and (2) A retail electricity sales operation for commercial customers, launched in early 2023.
 
It is noted that as of the report date, the Group's activity in the field of providing assets and energy management services to power plants focuses mainly on power plants, which are partly owned by CPV Group; since 2024 this activity is no longer considered independent and constitutes part of CPV Group headquarters.
 
The segment’s results are based on the EBITDA, which is the profit (loss) of the Company before: Depreciation and amortization, net finance expenses or income, and income taxes, as well as non-recurring income (expenses). The data of associates and joint ventures are included by way of proportionate consolidation according to the CPV Group's holding rate therein, and accordingly, the adjustments column includes mainly adjustments relating to the transition from the “proportionate consolidation” method that was used in internal management reports, and accordingly in this note, to the equity method in accordance with IFRS.

NOTE 26 – CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS DURING AND SUBSEQUENT TO THE REPORTING PERIOD


A.
Lawsuits and other contingent liabilities


1.
In recent years the System Operator notified Rotem that according to its approach the sale of energy to end consumers in excess of the production capacity of Rotem’s power plant, deviates from the provisions of Rotem’s PPA with the Israel Electric Corporation. Furthermore, Rotem was informed that the System Operator disputes Rotem’s position as to the applicability of Appendix O to Rotem’s PPA with the Israel Electric Corporation and including as to Rotem’s electricity sale options. Rotem is of the opinion that this matter was regulated as from July 1, 2024 under the complementary arrangements (including receipt of a supply license) which were stipulated by the Israeli Electricity Authority’s resolution as detailed below.
 
In February 2023, the Israeli Electricity Authority published a proposed resolution on the application - to Rotem - of criteria regarding deviation from a consumption plan, and the application of the complementary arrangements and criteria required for that purpose (hereinafter - the “Proposed Resolution”).
 
In March 2024, the Israeli Electricity Authority's resolution was given, following a proposed resolution (hereinafter – the “Resolution”). Generally, the arrangements as per the Resolution are not materially different from the arrangements included in the abovementioned proposed resolution, which comprise, among other things, the application of certain criteria on Rotem, including regarding deviations from consumption plans and the market model, alongside the award of a supply license to Rotem (if it applies for one and complies with the conditions for receipt thereof), in view of the Israeli Electricity Authority’s intention to consolidate, in many respects, the regulation that applies to Rotem with the regulation that applies to other bilateral electricity producers, thereby allowing Rotem to operate in the energy market in a manner that is similar and equal to that of producers. On June 30, 2024, Rotem received the supply license and the resolution came into force on July 1, 2024 for a period that coincides with that of Rotem's generation license.


2.
On July 1, 2020, the commercial operation date of the Hadera Power Plant commenced, after a delay in power plant’s completion of construction as a result of, among other things, components replaced or repaired.
 
Pursuant to the Construction Agreement with the construction contractor of the Hadera Power Plant (hereinafter in this section - the “Construction Contractor”), Hadera is entitled to compensation from the Construction Contractor for the delay in completing the power plant’s construction as well as to compensation in the event of non-compliance with the terms and conditions set out in the Agreement with respect to the power plant’s performance. Accordingly, Hadera offset a total of approx. USD 14 million from amounts payable to the construction contractor in respect of the last milestones. As a result, in September 2021, the Construction Contractor instigated arbitration proceedings against Hadera, claiming, among other things, which Hadera does not have any cause for charging (including by way of offsetting) the amounts specified in the agreement in respect of LDs and due to non-compliance with conditions set out in the agreement in connection with the performance of the power plant (hereinafter - the “Arbitration Proceeding”).

In December 2023, Hadera and the Construction Contractor signed a settlement agreement, according to which, among other things, in exchange for the withdrawal from, and full and final settlement of, the parties' claims in connection with the disputes between Hadera and the Construction Contractor that are the subject of the arbitration proceeding, the Contractor paid Hadera compensation in the amount of approx. NIS 74 million (approx. USD 21 million) (hereinafter - the "Compensation Amount”), and on the other hand, Hadera will pay the amounts it offset to the Construction Contractor totaling approx. USD 14 million. Upon the signing of the settlement agreement, the arbitration proceeding between the parties was concluded.

NOTE 26 – CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS DURING AND SUBSEQUENT TO THE REPORTING PERIOD (cont.)
 
As a result of the signing of the settlement agreement with the Construction Contractor, in 2023 the Company recognized a total of approx. NIS 41 million out of the compensation as part of the income line item, and the remaining amount of approx. NIS 33 million was offset from property, plant and equipment.

In July 2024, Hadera received a lump sum of approx. NIS 18 million (USD 5 million) from its insurers in connection with loss of income prior to the commercial operation date of the Hadera Power Plant. In the reporting period, the Company recognized an income in respect of the said amount under the ‘compensation for loss of income’ line item.


3.
The commercial operation period of the Zomet Power Plant commenced on June 22, 2023. Under the Construction Agreement, the Construction Contractor of the Zomet Power Plant (hereinafter in this section - the “Construction Contractor”) undertook to complete the construction work of the power plant, including acceptance tests by late January 2023. Furthermore, the Construction Agreement includes customary provisions for agreements of this type, including obligations for agreed compensation that are limited in amount, in case of non-compliance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Construction Agreement, including non-compliance with certain guaranteed results and/or non-compliance with the schedule.
 
In March 2024, an amendment to the Construction Agreement was signed, under which, among other things, the Construction Contractor paid Zomet an approx. NIS 26 million (approx. USD 7 million) as compensation due to a delay in the commercial operation, and on the other hand Zomet paid approx. NIS 43 million in respect of milestone payments, which were delayed, net of amounts that will serve as a collateral for an additional period as set out in the agreement.

As a result of the signing of the amendment to the Construction Agreement, the Company recognized in the reporting period income of approx. NIS 26 million (approx. USD 7 million) in respect of the said compensation under the compensation for loss of income line item.


4.
The Group companies usually record provisions for claims which, in their management’s opinion, based on their legal counsel, will more likely than not materialize. The provision is made according to an estimate of the expected amounts of the payments for settlement of the liability. As of the report date, additional exposure for which there is no provision amounts to approx. NIS 21 million (excluding a purchase tax assessment, as stated in Note 10B6).

Agreements for acquisition of natural gas


1.
Agreement between Tamar Group and Rotem
 
In November 2012, Rotem entered into an agreement with the Tamar Group (as amended from time to time)21 in connection with the supply of natural gas to the power plants (hereinafter in this section - the “Agreement”). The Agreement will remain in effect until September 2029. Furthermore, if 93% of the Total Contractual Quantity is not consumed, both parties have the right to extend the agreement by the earlier between consumption of the full contractual quantity or two additional years. The Total Contractual Quantity under the Agreement amounts to 10.6 BCM. The financial scope of the agreement (as estimated by the Tamar Group on the signing date of the agreement) is approx. USD 2.5 billion. Such an estimated amount does not take into account the reduction of quantities and the subsequent amendments.
 
Certain annual quantities in the Agreement between Tamar Group and Rotem are subject to a Take or Pay (TOP) obligation, based on a mechanism set out in the Agreement. Under the Agreement, under certain circumstances if payment is made for a quantity of natural gas that is not actually consumed or a quantity of gas over and above the TOP amount is purchased, Rotem may, subject to the restrictions and conditions set out in the Agreement, accumulate this quantity, for a limited time, and use it within the framework of the Agreement. The Agreement includes a mechanism that allows, under certain conditions, these rights to be assigned to related parties for quantities that were not consumed, up to close to their expiration date. In addition, Rotem may sell surplus gas under a secondary sale, subject to conditions set in the agreement. In addition, Rotem was awarded an option that was exercisable in 2020-2022, to reduce the daily contractual quantity to a certain rate set out in the agreement.

Pursuant to the Agreement, the price of gas is based on a base price in NIS, which was set on the date of signing the Agreement, linked to changes in the generation component tariff, which is part of the DSM, and in part (30%) to the USD representative exchange rate. In addition, the natural gas price formula set in the Agreement between Tamar Group and Rotem is subject to a minimum price in USD.

In May 2022, Rotem served Tamar with a notice regarding the reduction of some of the quantities purchased under the Agreement, which will take place at the end of a 12-month period (late May 2023), further to Rotem’s engagement in an amendment to the agreement with Energean of May 2022 (for details, see Section C3 below). At the end of the notice period regarding the reduction of quantities by virtue of the agreement and upon commencement of natural gas acquisition under the Energean agreement in 2023, the quantities of natural gas acquired from the Tamar Group decreased significantly.


2.
Agreement between the Tamar Group and Hadera
 
Hadera has a natural gas supply agreement with the Tamar Group (hereinafter in this section - the “Agreement”). The Agreement between Tamar and Hadera will end 15 years after the commencement of supply from the Tamar Reservoir (April 2013), or at the end of the consumption of the total contractual quantity, the earlier of the two. Furthermore, if 91.5% of the Total Contractual Quantity is not consumed, both parties have the right to extend the agreement by the earlier between consumption of the full contractual quantity or two additional years. The price of gas is denominated in USD, is linked to the weighted average of the generation component published by the Israeli Electricity Authority and includes a minimum price. The total amount of the agreement as estimated on the engagement date may amount to approx. USD 0.7 billion (assuming that the overall quantity will be consumed).


21
To the best of the Company’s knowledge, as of the report date, the Tamar Group includes Isramco Negev 2 Limited Partnership, Union Energy & Systems 2 Ltd. Mubadala Energy RSC Ltd., Chevron Mediterranean Ltd., Tamar Investment 2 Limited, Dor Gas Exploration Limited Partnership and Tamar Petroleum Ltd.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2024

NOTE 26 – CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS DURING AND SUBSEQUENT TO THE REPORTING PERIOD (cont.)

According to the agreement, Tamar has an obligation to supply all of the quantities included in the agreement; on the other hand, Hadera has a TOP commitment regarding a certain annual quantity of natural gas. Hadera was awarded the option to reduce part of the daily contractual quantity to a certain rate as set out in the agreement. In February 2020, and in accordance with the amendment signed between the parties, Hadera gave notice of the date from which the average quantity will be calculated for purposes of calculating the reduced quantities, subject to adjustments as described above.
 
Further to Hadera’s engagement in an amendment to the agreement with Energean of May 2022 as stated in Section C3 below, in June 2022 Hadera served Tamar with a notice regarding the reduction of quantities, as stated above (hereinafter - the “Reduction Notice”); the reduction of quantities came into force in March 2023. Upon the commercial operation of the Karish Tanin Reservoir in the reporting period and the acquisition of natural gas in accordance with the Energean Transaction, the quantity and purchase cost of natural gas from the Tamar Group dropped.
 
In addition, in September 2016, Hadera and Tamar Group engaged in an additional agreement for the sale and purchase of gas (hereinafter in this section - the “Additional Agreement”). The additional agreement shall be in effect for up to 15 years from January 2019 or until the Total Contractual Quantity has been consumed – whichever is earlier. The gas price is denominated in USD and linked to the weighted average of the generation component published by the Israeli Electricity Authority and includes a minimum price. Supply of the gas in accordance with the additional agreement, is on an interruptible basis; i.e., Tamar Group will not be obligated to supply the gas quantity requested. Hadera has an early termination right in respect of the additional gas agreement under certain prescribed circumstances. Accordingly, in June 2022, Hadera informed Tamar Group of such early termination, and accordingly the additional agreement was terminated on June 30, 2023.
 

3.
The Energean Agreements
 
In December 2017, Rotem and Hadera engaged in agreements with Energean Israel Ltd. (hereinafter – “Energean”), which has holdings in the Karish Reservoir, for the purchase natural gas.22 According to the terms of the agreements, the total original basic natural gas quantities which Rotem and Hadera are expected to purchase was approx. 5.3 BCM and approx. 3.7 BCM, respectively (hereinafter – the “Total Contractual Quantity”). For details regarding the increase in the Total Basic Contractual Quantity, see below in this section. The agreement includes, among other things, a TOP mechanism, whereby Rotem and Hadera undertake to pay for a minimum quantity of natural gas even if they have not used it.
 
Furthermore, the agreements include additional provisions and arrangements customary in agreements for the purchase of natural gas, including with regard to maintenance, gas quality, limitation of liability, buyer and seller collateral, assignments and liens, dispute resolution and operating mechanisms. In accordance with the regulation, the Company is required to provide guarantees under certain conditions set forth in the agreement, including a downgrading of the rating, according to the value of the number of gas consumption days, in accordance with the contractual quantity set forth in the agreement.
 
Until the amendment of the agreements with Energean in November 2019, it was stipulated that the agreements will remain in effect until the earlier of: 15 years or until the Total Contractual Quantity will have been supplied by Energean to each of the subsidiaries (Rotem and Hadera) (hereinafter – the “First Agreement Period”), where the commencement date of the agreement will be no later than 12 months from the date Energean pumps its first gas (hereinafter - the “Karish’s Commercial Operation Date”). Under each of the Agreements, if 14 years from Karish’s Commercial Operation Date will have elapsed and the contracting company has not taken a volume equivalent to 90% of the Total Contractual Quantity, subject to prior notice, each party may extend the agreement for an additional period which will begin at the end of 15 years from the date the agreement took effect, until the earlier of: (1) full consumption of the Total Contractual Quantity; or (2) for an additional 3 years from the end of the First Agreement Term.
 

22
At the time of signing the agreement, there was also an engagement with ICL Group Ltd. and Bazan Ltd. The agreements with respect to each of the Group Companies are separate and independent.

3.
The Energean Agreements (cont.)
 
As part of an amendment to Rotem and Hadera’s Energean agreements of 2019, the rate of gas consumption by Rotem was accelerated, such that Rotem’s daily and annual contractual gas consumption from Energean was increased by 50%, with no change in the Total Contractual Quantity being purchased from Energean. Accordingly, the agreement period was updated to the earlier of 10 years or until the Total Contractual Quantity will have been consumed (in lieu of the earlier of 15 years or until the Total Contractual Quantity will have been consumed) (hereinafter - the “Additional Agreement Term”). It is noted that the agreements with Energean include circumstances under which each party to the agreements will be entitled to terminate the relevant agreement before the end of the First Agreement Period (or the Additional Agreement Term), including cases of prolonged supply interruptions, compromised collateral, etc.
 
The price of the natural gas in the agreements with Energean is denominated in USD and is based on an agreed formula, which is linked to the Electricity Generation Component and includes a minimum price. The original total financial amount of the agreements was estimated at approx. USD 1.3 billion (assuming consumption of the total basic quantity and in accordance with the original agreements and in accordance with the gas price formula as of the engagement date) and depends mainly on the Electricity Generation Component, the increase of the quantities as specified below and the volume of gas consumed.
 
In May 2022, an amendment to the Energean Agreements was signed, which set out, among other things, arrangements pertaining to bringing forward the reduction of the quantities of gas purchased under Rotem and Hadera’s natural gas agreements with the Tamar Group and the following arrangements:
 
As outlined in Sections C1 and C2 above, in accordance with the Tamar Agreements, Rotem and Hadera may give the Tamar Group notice by December 31, 2022 regarding the reduction of part of the contractual annual minimum quantity of gas to be purchased, in accordance with the formulae set in the Tamar Agreements (hereinafter - the “Reduction Notice”); such reduction will come into force at the end of the period set in Rotem and Hadera's agreements with the Tamar Group (12 and 8 months, respectively) (hereinafter - the “Actual Reduction Date”). In accordance with the Energean Agreements, Rotem and Hadera shall issue the Reduction Notice by the date on which piping of gas from the Karish Reservoir will commence after the running in period has ended (hereinafter - the “Commercial Operation Date”). As part of the May 2022 amendment, it was decided that Rotem and Hadera will issue their respective Reduction Notices under the Tamar Agreements (as described in Sections C1 and C2 above) within 30 days from the amendment date. It was further determined in the amendment that as from the Commercial Operation Date and through the Actual Reduction Date, Rotem and Hadera will have a TOP undertaking regarding a certain quantity of natural gas, and at the same time netting arrangements were put in place in connection with the bringing forward of the Reduction Notice, and in connection with Rotem and Hadera’s purchase of gas from alternative sources if the Commercial Operation Date does not take place by the Actual Reduction Date. In addition, the amendment includes an option that may be exercised until the end of 2022 to purchase further immaterial quantities of natural gas from Energean under the terms of the agreement between Energean and Rotem.
 
It is noted that, in August 2022, Rotem and Hadera informed Energean regarding the increase of the contractual gas quantity under the original terms and conditions of the Energean agreements (the increase does not constitute exercise of the above option, which is exercisable by the end of 2022). It is clarified that increasing the contractual quantity increases the TOP commitment as part of the agreements.

NOTE 26 – CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS DURING AND SUBSEQUENT TO THE REPORTING PERIOD (cont.)
 
In November 2022, Rotem served Energean with a notice of the exercise of the option to acquire an additional immaterial quantity, as set out in the amendment to the agreement with Energean. At the beginning of 2023, Energean issued Hadera and Rotem with a notice regarding the completion of the commissioning and commercial operation on March 26, 2023.
 
In addition, in 2023 Rotem and Hadera recognized a contractual amount totaling approx. NIS 18 million (approx. USD 5 million), which was received during the reporting period and recognized in the cost of sales line item.


4.
On March 18, 2024, a wholly-owned partnership of OPC Israel (hereinafter - the “Partnership”) engaged with a third party in an agreement for the purchase of natural gas. The agreement will terminate on June 30, 2030 or at the earlier of: the end of the consumption of the Total Contractual Quantity of approx. 0.46 BCM as set out in the agreement.
 
Under the agreement, the Seller undertook to provide to the Partnership a daily quantity of gas, as will be decided by the Partnership each month, in accordance with the mechanism set out in the agreement, and - for its part - the Partnership assumed a take or pay liability for a certain annual consumption as set out in the agreement. The agreement includes arrangements regarding quantities consumed above or below the minimum annual quantity. The price of the natural gas is denominated in USD and based on an agreed formula, which is linked to the generation component and includes a minimum price. Furthermore, the agreement included additional provisions and arrangements customary in agreements for the purchase of natural gas, including with regard to the natural gas’s quality, supply shortage, force majeure, limitation of liability, early termination provisions under certain cases, subject to terms and conditions and reassignment.
 

5.
Amendment to the Excise Tax on Fuel Ordinance
 
In September 2024, an amendment to the Fuel Excise Tax Ordinance (Imposition of Excise Tax) went into effect, as from January 1, 2025. The amended ordinance includes an increase of the excise tax rates applicable to various types of fuels, including natural gas, such that in 2025, the excise tax on natural gas will increase from NIS 19 to NIS 33 and will continue to increase in a graduated manner until reaching a maximum excise tax of NIS 192 in 2030. The increase in the excise tax rate on natural gas is expected to increase the cost of natural gas for the Company; the Company estimates that some of the effect may be mitigated as a result of an increase in the Company’s revenues, provided that the generation component will be increased and subject to the effect of such a possible increase, for the Company, in the price of natural gas, which is linked to the generation component. As of the report approval date, the effect of the amendment to the Excise Tax Ordinance on the Company’s results in Israel over time cannot be estimated. With respect to 2025, the Company believes that the amended Excise Tax Ordinance is not expected to have a material effect on its results.


D.
Agreement for the sale of surplus electricity in Rotem

As part of the agreement, Rotem undertakes to sell to the Electricity Producer and the Electricity Producer undertakes to purchase from Rotem surplus quantities of electricity, during certain demand hour clusters, at a discount for the demand side management tariff (DSM Tariff) (hereinafter - the “Contractual Discount”); with respect to surplus electricity in other demand hour clusters, which were defined, the parties will give certain priority under agreed conditions. Under the provisions of the agreement, the sale of surpluses shall be carried up in accordance with set maximum and minimum quantities. Furthermore, the agreement includes additional provisions and arrangements regarding early termination thereof and provisions which are generally accepted in agreements for the purchase of surplus electricity.

Shore refinancing agreement

Subsequent to the report date, Shore entered into a refinancing agreement,23 in accordance with the following main terms and conditions (hereinafter - the “New Refinancing Agreement”)
 
The scope of liabilities under the New Refinancing Agreement is approx. NIS 1.57 billion (USD 436 million), composed of approx. NIS 1.18 billion (approx. USD 325 million), Term Loan B, as well as renewable and non-renewable credit facilities totaling approx. NIS 0.4 billion (approx. USD 111 million), including for the purpose of working capital and letters of credit. The loans’ final repayment date is February 4, 2032 and the final repayment date of the renewable credit facility is February 4, 2030. The pace and scope of the Term Loan B changes until the final repayment date, according to a combination of a mandatory amortization schedule (1% per year) and a leverage-based cash sweep repayment mechanism ranging from 75% to 100% in cash sweep. According to the New Refinancing Agreement, the interest rate on the loan is SOFR + a 3.75% spread.

The other key terms and conditions (grounds for repayment, collateral and additional terms and conditions) in the New Refinancing Agreement are similar in essence to those of the exiting financing agreement and as accepted in agreements of this type, along with an adjustment to the requirement to hedge the minimum interest rate to 50% of the expected nominal balance of the loan for a three-year period as of the completion date of the New Refinancing Agreement and a requirement for a debt service coverage ratio of x1.10 for the 12 consecutive months. The requirement for a debt service coverage ratio is initially measured on December 31, 2025 (pro-rated) for a period as from the New Refinancing Agreement effective date and at the end of each subsequent calendar quarter. With respect to the completion of the New Refinancing Agreement, approx. NIS 288 million (approx. USD 80 million) was extended to Shore by all of its shareholders (hereinafter - the “Deleveraging Amount”), with CPV Group’s share in the Deleveraging Amount being approx. USD 55 million.
 
Prior to completing the New Refinancing Agreement, the CPV Group entered into an acquisition agreement to increase its holding stake in Shore to 90%, as detailed in Note 24C. It is noted that, as of the report approval date, the CPV Group provided its share of the Deleveraging Amount attributable to the acquired stake.24


23
Non-recourse project financing, as accepted in agreements of this type.
24
In consideration for increasing its above holdings, subject to its completion, the CPV Group will pay the seller an amount that is immaterial to the Company. If the stake shall not be increased as aforesaid, the share of the Deleveraging Amount attributable to that stake shall be considered a loan to the seller under the agreed upon terms and conditions.

OPC Energy Ltd.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2024

NOTE 28 - ATTACHMENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF MATERIAL ASSOCIATES (cont.)
 
Below is a breakdown of the key adjustments between US GAAP and IFRS in Fairview, Towantic and Shore


A.
Maintenance costs under the Long Term Maintenance Plan (hereinafter - the “LTPC Agreement”): under IFRS, variable payments which were paid in accordance with the milestones as set in the LTPC Agreement are capitalized to the cost of property, plant and equipment and amortized over the period from the date on which maintenance work was carried out until the date on which maintenance work is due to take place again. Under US GAAP, the said payments are recognized on payment date within current expenses in the statement of profit and loss.
 

B.
Hedge effectiveness of swaps: in accordance with the IFRS - the associates recognize adjustments relating to the ineffective portion of their cash flow hedge under profit and loss. Under US GAAP, there is no part which is not effective, and the hedging results are recognized in full in other comprehensive income.
 

C.
Intangible assets: Under IFRS, certain intangible assets are defined as property, plant and equipment.
 

D.
Restricted cash: There is a difference between the presentation and classification of restricted cash in the Statements of Cash Flows and in the Statements of Financial Position.
 

E.
Right-of-use assets: In IFRS, certain contracts are classified as leases. Under US GAAP, these contracts do not meet the definition of lease contracts, and are recorded as an operating expense.
 

F.
Certain compound financial instruments are classified in full as derivatives in IFRS. Under US GAAP, these financial instruments are bifurcated between derivatives and non-derivative financial instruments.
 

G.
Property, plant and equipment in Shore: In Shore’s financial statements the property, plant, and equipment is presented at historical cost. The adjustments to property, plant and equipment include, in addition to sections a and c above, the allocation of excess cost carried out on the acquisition date of CPV Group.
