Cash and cash equivalents

|
Most of the decrease stems from current debt payments, in the amount of about NIS 154 million, a deposit in short‑term deposits, in the amount of about NIS 100 million, additional investments in construction of the Hadera power plant, in the amount of about NIS 40 million, distribution of a dividend to the holders of non‑controlling interests, in the amount of about NIS 29 million, investments in property, plant and equipment in Rotem, in the amount of about NIS 21 million, acquisition of Zomet, in the amount of about NIS 8 million, and additional investments in the Zomet project, in the amount of about NIS 6 million.
This decrease was partly offset by an increase in the cash balances deriving from the Company’s current operating activities, in the amount of about NIS 310 million, and net withdrawals from restricted cash, in the amount of about NIS 8 million.
For further information – see the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows as at September 30, 2018, included in the Interim Reports.

|
|||

|
154,589
|

|
|||
Receivables and debit balances, including derivative financial instruments
|

Non-Current Assets
|

Long-term deposits and restricted cash
|
260,781
|
264,564
|
Most of the decrease stems from a decrease in the pledged deposits securing bank guarantees of the Company, in the amount of about NIS 36 million, and a decrease in the debt service reserve in Rotem in accordance with Rotem’s financing agreement, in the amount of about NIS 6 million.
This decrease was partly offset by additional deposits, in the amount of about NIS 25 million, in the debt service fund for the debentures (Series A), additional deposits in respect of guarantees of Rotem, in the amount of about NIS 9 million, and an increase of the restricted cash in Rotem, in the amount of about NIS 4 million, mainly as a result of changes in the exchange rate of the dollar.
|
|||
Long-term loans and prepaid expenses
|
117,846
|
100,356
|
Most of the increase is due to construction of infrastructures in Hadera in the amount of NIS 24 million, which are classified as long‑term prepaid expenses.
On the other hand, the balance as at December 31, 2017 included an intercompany amount in connection with Zomet that was offset due to the initial consolidation of Zomet in March 2018. In addition, the balance as at September 30, 2018 is after current amortization of deferred expenses in Rotem, in the amount of NIS 3 million.

An additional increase stemmed from investment in leasehold improvements due to a move to new offices in the amount of NIS 8 million.
The increase was partly offset by depreciation on the property, plant and equipment in Rotem and Hadera (the energy center), in the aggregate amount of about NIS 79 million.

|
|||
Trade payables
|
232,487
|
202,705

(1) |
During the period, there was an increase of about NIS 45 million in the revenues from sale of energy generated to private customers, deriving mainly from: (a) an increase in the energy generated and sold to private customers, in the amount of about NIS 15 million, due to higher availability in 2018 (as a result of a higher number of planned maintenance days in 2017 compared with 2018 at the Rotem power plant); and (b) an increase in the generation component tariff, in the amount of about NIS 34 million. On the other hand, the results in the first nine months of 2017 included non‑recurring income from a settlement relating to prior periods with private customers, in the amount of about NIS 5 million.
|
(2) |
Most of the decrease in the total revenues from sale of energy purchased from IEC for private customers, in the amount of about NIS 15 million, stems from higher availability in 2018, mainly as a result of a higher number of planned maintenance days in 2017 compared with 2018 at the Rotem power plant.
|
(3) |
Most of the decrease in the revenues from private customers for infrastructure services stems from a decline in the infrastructure tariffs in 2018, in the amount of about NIS 29 million. In addition, revenues from private customers for infrastructure services in the first nine months of 2017 included revenues from a settlement relating to prior periods, in the amount of about NIS 4 million. Furthermore, as a result of a change in the customer mix (voltage level), there was a decrease in the total revenues from private customers for infrastructure services, in the amount of about NIS 3 million.
|
(4) |
Most of the decrease in the revenues from sale of energy to the System Administrator in the first nine months of 2018, in the amount of about NIS 0.5 million, compared with the corresponding period last year, is a result of the higher consumption by private customers.

The increase in the revenues from sale of steam, in the amount of about NIS 3 million, stems from: (a) a change in the basis for calculating the estimated price of the steam, in the amount of about NIS 2 million; and (b) higher consumption of steam in 2018, in the amount of about NIS 1 million.
|
(1) |
In the third quarter of 2018, there was an increase of about NIS 1 million in the revenues from sale of energy generated to private customers, deriving mainly from an increase in the generation component tariff, in the amount of about NIS 11 million. On the other hand, there was a decrease in the energy generated and sold to private customers, in the amount of about NIS 5 million, due to lower availability in 2018 (as a result of planned maintenance work that started in September in 2018 at the Rotem power plant), and a different mix of private electricity customers compared with the corresponding quarter last year, in the amount of about NIS 4 million.

Most of the decrease in the gas and diesel oil costs is a result of a decrease in the diesel oil consumption costs, in the amount of about NIS 17 million, due to: (a) a reimbursement from Israel Electric Company for costs of diesel oil in prior years, in the amount of about NIS 8 million; and (b) a decrease in the consumption of diesel oil in 2018 compared with the corresponding period last year, in the amount of about NIS 9 million, as a result of increased production of diesel oil at Rotem’s power plant in September 2017 due to a technical failure found as part of the maintenance of the gas production raft in the Tamar reservoir. In addition, there was an upward revaluation of the exchange rate of the shekel against the dollar, in the amount of about NIS 7 million. The said decrease was partly offset, in the amount of about NIS 21 million, as a result of higher consumption of gas stemming from higher availability of Rotem’s power plant and no gas shortages in the first nine months of 2018, compared with the corresponding period last year.
|
(2) |
In the period of the report, there was a decrease of about NIS 52, million in the expenses to IEC in respect of infrastructure services and purchase of electricity, deriving mainly from: (a) higher generation stemming from higher availability (mainly due to a higher number of planned maintenance days in 2017 at the Rotem power station), in the amount of about NIS 15 million; (b) a decrease in the tariffs for infrastructure services in 2018, which contributed to a decrease in the amount of about NIS 29 million; (c) expenses for infrastructure services following a settlement relating to prior periods made by the Company with its private customers in 2017, in the amount of about NIS 4 million; and (d) change in the mix of the customers (voltage level), in the amount of about NIS 3 million.
|

Most of the decrease stems from a reimbursement in connection with an insurance premium with respect to prior years, in the amount of about NIS 3 million, in 2018.

The said decrease was partly offset by (a) no shortages of gas in the third quarter of 2018 compared with the corresponding quarter last year, coming to about NIS 4 million and (b) a devaluation of the exchange rate of the shekel against the dollar, in the amount of about NIS 2 million.
|
(2) |
In the third quarter of 2018, there was a decrease of about NIS 11, million in the expenses to IEC in respect of infrastructure services and purchase of electricity, deriving mainly from a decrease in the tariffs for infrastructure services and lower consumption of private customers in 2018, which contributed to a decrease in the amount of about NIS 16 million. On the other hand, due to lower availability as a result of planned maintenance at Rotem’s power plant that started in September 2018, there was an increase of the total purchases of electricity, in the amount of about NIS 5 million.

Most of the increase stems from an increase in the working capital, in the amount of about NIS 57 million (mainly as a result of the high balance of trade receivables, as at September 30, 2017). On the other hand, there was a decrease in the current operating activities, in the amount of about NIS 4 million.

Most of the decrease in the cash flows used in investing activities derives from a deposit in a trust account as part of the arbitration with Tamar, in the amount of about NIS 79 million, in 2017, higher investments in Rotem, in the amount of about NIS 29 million, and in Hadera, in the amount of about NIS 41 million, in 2017, deposits in restricted cash and debt‑service funds, in 2017, in the amount of about NIS 23 million, and payments in respect of derivatives in 2017, in the amount of about NIS 5 million. In addition, in 2018 a withdrawal was made from restricted cash and debt‑service funds in 2018, in the amount of about NIS 8 million.
This decrease was offset by deposits in short‑term deposits in 2018, in the amount of about NIS 100 million, withdrawals from short‑term deposits in 2017, in the amount of about NIS 16 million, and acquisition of and investments in Zomet in 2018, in the amount of about NIS 14 million.

Most of the increase in the cash flows used in financing activities stems from the proceeds from issuance of shares, in the amount of about NIS 365 million, in 2017, the proceeds from issuance of the debentures (Series A), in the amount of about NIS 316 million, in 2017, lower withdrawals from the financing agreement framework in the Hadera project: about NIS 415 million in 2017 versus about NIS 102 million in 2018. In addition, in 2018, a dividend was paid to the holders of the non‑controlling interests, in the amount of NIS 29 million.
On the other hand, the above‑mentioned decrease was offset by debt payments, including, repayment of the interim loans, current debt payments, an early repayment fee and settlement of balances of I.C. Power Asia Development, in the net aggregate amount of about NIS 478 million in 2017, compared with a total of about NIS 156 million in 2018.

Additional Information

A. |
Further to that stated in Note 27(G) to the Annual Financial Statements, in January 2018, the Electricity Authority published a resolution, regarding tariff updates for 2018, wherein the generation component was raised by 6.7% – from NIS 264 per MWh to NIS 281.6 per MWh.
|
B. |
Further to that stated in Note 27(G) to the Annual Financial Statements, in February 2018, Tamar Partners filed a detailed statement of claim wherein they repeat the contentions that are described in the Note and also raised an alternative argument, pursuant to which NIS 361.5 per MWh should be declared as the relevant tariff for the period in dispute (constituting the average of the four tariffs published by the Electricity Authority in 2013). In June 2018, Rotem filed a detailed statement of defense wherein it rejected the contentions. Subsequent to the date of the report, in October 2018, a response was filed by Tamar Partners. Rotem believes that it is more likely than not that its position will be accepted. Accordingly, no provision was included in the financial statements in respect of said claim.
|
C. |
On January 10, 2018, a request was filed with the District Court in Tel‑Aviv–Jaffa for certification of a derivative claim (hereinafter in this Section – “the Request”) by a shareholder in Oil Refineries Ltd. (hereinafter – “ORL”) against former and current directors of ORL, Israel Chemicals Ltd., Israel Corporation Ltd., Mr. Idan Ofer, Mr. Ehud Angel, and against the Company, Rotem and Hadera (hereinafter – “the OPC Group”). The subject matter of the Request involves gas purchase transactions of ORL, Israel Chemicals Ltd. and the OPC Group (hereinafter – “the Companies”), including the inter‑company aspects thereof, including: (1) a transaction of the Companies for purchase of natural gas from Tamar Partners (for additional information see Note 27(G) to the Annual Financial Statements); and (2) transactions of the Companies for purchase of natural gas from Energean (for additional information see Note 27(G) to the Annual Financial Statements). Regarding a transaction with Energean, in brief, the plaintiff claims that, in addition to the transaction of the Companies with Energean, a transaction is required among the Companies themselves for allocation of the economic benefits achieved in the joint negotiations in a manner that properly reflects the purchasing power and the negotiating strength of each of them. The plaintiff argues that the alleged absence of such an inter‑company transaction (or the alleged absence of a proper proceeding for allocation of the benefit) adversely impacts ORL (is not at arm’s length regarding the inter‑company aspect), and ORL does not receive its share of the economic benefit in light of its significant purchasing power and its contribution to the negotiations with Energean (among other things, in light of the fact that the transaction was executed at similar prices to the Group Companies). The principal remedies sought by the plaintiff in the Request with respect to the Energean transaction are several declaratory and monetary measures, including, among other things, implementation of an inter-company proceeding.

|
E. |

In February 2018, Midroog updated the long-term rating of Rotem to Aa3 with a positive outlook and also updated the rating of Rotem’s senior debt from Aa3 with a stable outlook to Aa3 with a positive outlook.
|
I. |

On the other hand, the precondition stipulated in the Energean agreements had not yet been fulfilled with respect to the financial closing of Energean (hereinafter – “the Precondition”).
