Review Report of the Independent Auditors to the Shareholders of OPC Energy Ltd.
Introduction
We have reviewed the accompanying financial information of OPC Energy Ltd. (hereinafter – the “Company”) and its subsidiaries, including the condensed consolidated interim statement of financial position as of March 31, 2024 and the condensed consolidated interim statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the three-month period then ended.The Board of Directors and management are responsible for preparing and presenting financial information for this interim period in accordance with IAS 34, Interim Financial Reporting, and are also responsible for preparing financial information for this interim period under Chapter D of the Securities Regulations (Periodic and Immediate Reports), 1970. Our responsibility is to draw a conclusion regarding the financial information for this interim period based on our review.
Review scope
We conducted our review in accordance with Review Standard (Israel) 2410 - “Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity” of the Institute of Certified Public Accountants in Israel. A review of financial information for interim periods consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures.A review is substantially smaller in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in Israel and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might have been identifiable in an audit.Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.
Conclusion
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the aforementioned financial information was not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS 34).
In addition to that mentioned in the previous paragraph, based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the aforementioned financial information does not comply, in all material respects, with the disclosure requirements of Chapter D of the Securities Regulations (Periodic and Immediate Reports), 1970.

The accompanying notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements are an integral part thereof.
Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements as of March 31, 2024 (Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - GENERAL
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 Company and its investees (hereinafter - the “Group”) are engaged in the generation and supply of electricity and energy through three reportable segments. For details regarding the Group’s operating segments during the reporting period, see Note 27 to the Financial Statements as of the date and year ended December 31, 2023 (hereinafter – the “Annual Financial Statements”).
NOTE 2 - BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
| A. | Statement of compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) |
The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 (hereinafter – “IAS 34”) - “Interim Financial Reporting” and do not include all of the information required in complete Annual Financial Statements. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Annual Financial Statements. In addition, these financial statements were prepared in accordance with the provisions of Chapter D of the Securities Regulations (Periodic and Immediate Reports) 1970.
The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements were approved for publication by the Company’s Board of Directors on May 20, 2024.
| B. | Functional and presentation currency |
The New Israeli Shekel (NIS) is the currency that represents the primary economic environment in which the Company operates. Accordingly, the NIS is the Company’s functional currency. The NIS also serves as the presentation currency in these financial statements. Currencies other than the NIS constitute foreign currency.
| C. | 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 policies and the amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. It is clarified that the actual results may differ from these estimates.
Management’s judgment, at the time of implementing the Group’s accounting policies and the main assumptions used in the estimates involving uncertainty, are consistent with those used in the Annual Financial Statements.
The Group carried out immaterial classifications in its comparative figures such that their classification will match their classification in the current financial statements.
The income of the Group companies from the sale of energy in Israel are mostly based on the generation component, which constitutes part of the demand side management tariff, which is supervised and published by the Israeli Electricity Authority. The year is broken down into three seasons: summer (June through September), winter (December, January and February) and transitional (March through May and October through November), with each season having a different tariff for each demand hour cluster.
In the United States, the electricity tariffs are not regulated and are affected by the demand to electricity, which is generally higher than average during the summer and winter; electricity tariffs are also materially affected by natural gas prices, which may generally be higher in winter than the annual average. In addition, 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, whereas in solar-powered projects solar radiation tends to be higher during the spring and summer months and lower during the fall and winter months.
NOTE 3 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. | The Group’s accounting policies in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are the same as the policies applied to the Annual Financial Statements. |
B. | New standards 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 to the financial statements, specifically the statement of income. 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 income shall be classified into three categories: operating income, 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 the notes.
The standard will be initially applied 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 - SEGMENT REPORTING
Further to what is stated in Note 27 to the annual financial statements, during the reporting period there were no changes in the composition of the Group’s reportable segments, or in the manner of measuring the results of the segments by the chief operating decision maker.

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.
| 3. | Subsequent to the reporting date - on May 13, 2024, a CPV Group subsidiary entered into a binding tax equity agreement with a tax equity partner in respect of the Stagecoach project (hereinafter - the “Project”), at the total amount of approx.

In accordance with the investment agreement, some of the tax equity partner’s investment in the project - approx. NIS 160 million (approx. USD 43 million) - was advanced on the completion date, and the remaining balance - approx. NIS 33 million (approx. NIS 9 million) - will be advanced subsequently as a function of the project’s production, as these terms are defined in the investment agreement, and subject to the fulfillment of the conditions set in connection therewith in the investment agreement, as is generally accepted in agreements of this type.

| C. | Further to Note 25A3 to the annual financial statements, subsequent to the reporting period, the Company and non-controlling interests made equity investments in OPC Power Ventures LP (both directly and indirectly) totaling approx. NIS 57 million (approx. USD 15 million) and extended loans totaling approx. NIS 17 million (approx. USD 5 million), based on their stake in the Partnership. As of the report approval date, the balance of the investment commitments and advanced shareholder loans of all Partners is approx. USD 295 million (approx. USD 80 million); the Company’s share is approx. NIS 235 million (approx. USD 56 million). |
| D. | For further details regarding developments in credit from banking corporations and others, debentures, guarantees and equity in the reporting period and thereafter, see Note 7. |
| E. | For further details regarding developments in commitments, legal claims and other liabilities in the reporting period and thereafter, see Note 8. |
| F. | Further to Note 11B1 to the Financial Statements regarding an option to a lease agreement with Infinya Ltd. in respect of an area of approx. 6.8 hectares (adjacent to the Hadera Power Plant) for the purpose of constructing a power plant, on April 17, 2024, the Israeli government rejected National Infrastructures Plan (NIP) 20B, for the construction of a natural gas-fired power generation plant (hereinafter - “Hadera 2 Project”) on the said land. |
In view of the above Government Resolution, the Company assessed the recoverable amount of the Hadera 2 Project in its financial statements in accordance with the provisions of IAS 36, and accordingly recognized an approx. NIS 31 million impairment loss.
As of the report approval date, the Company is assessing the Government Resolution, and - accordingly - is considering taking action in connection with the resolution, including legal action. In addition, the Company is considering other alternatives in relation to the Hadera 2 site, in the event that it will be impossible to construct a natural gas-fired power plant.
NOTE 11 - ATTACHMENT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF MATERIAL ASSOCIATES
The Group attaches to these condensed consolidated interim financial statements the condensed interim financial statements of Valley, Towantic and Shore, and the condensed interim financial data of Fairview (hereinafter - “Material Associates”), including adjustments from US GAAP to IFRS presented below. According to an approval issued by the Israel Securities Authority Staff at the request of the Company, the Company shall publish the condensed interim financial statements of Fairview for the first quarter of 2024 by June 30, 2024.
According to legal advice received by CPV Group, under the relevant US law it is not required to sign the financial statements of the material associates, and the attached financial statements were approved by the competent organs, and a review report of the independent auditors was attached thereto.
The Material Associates’ functional and presentation currency is the USD. As of the report date, the exchange rate is NIS 3.681 per USD.
The financial statements of the Material Associates are drawn up in accordance with US GAAP, which vary, in some respects, from IFRS. Following is information regarding adjustments made to the Material Associates’ financial statements in order to make them compatible with the Company’s accounting policies and rules.
The repayment date of Shore’s ancillary credit facilities, which as of March 31, 2024 total approx. NIS 350 million (approx. USD 95 million) and of which approx. NIS 260 million (approx. USD 71 million) has already been utilized, is March 31, 2025 (less than 12 months from the approval date of the financial statements). In addition, the repayment date of Shore’s long‑term loans, which as of March 31, 2024 total approx. NIS 1.3 billion (approx. USD 361 million), is December 31, 2025. Shore’s operating cash flows is its main source of liquidity. While Shore has produced cash flows that are sufficient to meet its liabilities under its financing agreements up to March 31, 2024, Shore expects that if the repayment date of the ancillary credit facilities is not extended, it will not have sufficient cash balances to repay the said credit facilities by their repayment date on March 31, 2025. If these credit facilities are not extended and Shore does not have sufficient liquid means to repay them by March 31, 2025, a cross‑default scenario is expected to be triggered, which may also trigger a call for immediate repayment, on that date, of Shore’s long‑term loans.
Shore is seeking to refinance, with the lenders, the long‑term loans as well as to extend the credit facilities prior to March 31, 2025. The CPV Group believes it reasonable that Shore will reach binding agreements with the lenders to extend the said credit facilities and/or to refinance the entire long‑term debt by March 31, 2025. It is noted that the CPV Group believes that in light of the energy margins and capacity prices, and pursuant to Shore’s financial performance as of March 31, 2024, particularly the coverage ratio that stands at 1.18 as of that date, it is possible that in connection with extension of the credit facilities and loans, as stated, Shore will require a certain capital injection, such that, the CPV Group believes as of the approval date of the financial statements, the share of the CPV Group in the said capital injection (if required) is expected to come from its own sources, such that an investment by the shareholders will not be necessary (in any event, it is not expected that an investment by the Company will be needed). As of the approval date of the financial statements, there is no certainty that the assessments of the CPV Group regarding the abovementioned events will materialize. Since the said events are not under the control of the CPV Group, there are significant doubts as to the ability of Shore to continue as a going concern.
Accordingly, Shore’s interim financial statements as of March 31, 2024 include disclosure regarding the circumstances relating to Shore’s ability to repay its liabilities within a period of 12 months of the approval date of the financial statements.
It is noted that Shore’s interim financial statements were prepared on the assumption that it will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments to the values and classification of the assets and liabilities that may be necessary if Shore is unable to continue as a going concern.
