Updates in connection with Potential Public Offering in Israel

In connection with the announcement by Ellomay Capital Ltd. (the "Company"), dated October 6, 2022, that it is examining the possibility of a public offering and listing in Israel of a new series of debentures, the Company provides the following update.

The Company is currently planning to commence construction of photovoltaic facilities in Italy during 2023 in an aggregate capacity of approximately 200 MW (the "Italian PV Portfolio"). The Italian PV Portfolio received building permits and is in "Ready to Build" status. The bid process for the contractors that will build the Italian PV Portfolio is underway and the winning contractor(s) will be determined in the coming days. The cost of construction of the Italian PV Portfolio, including related expenses, is currently estimated at € 190 million - € 200 million and the expected average construction period of each facility is approximately 18 months.

The Company is in advanced stages of negotiating a framework agreement for the financing of the Italian PV Portfolio with a European bank for a period of twelve years. The scope of financing will be determined based on the ration of the debt to the cost of construction and the financing is expected to cover 80% of the construction costs, including related expenses, if a financial power swap (PPA) will be executed in connection with the relevant facility and 60% of such costs if a PPA will not be executed. The Company currently does not plan to execute PPAs in connection with these facilities. Therefore, the financing for the Italian PV Portfolio is expected to be approximately € 120 million and the equity required from the Company is approximately € 80 million. The Company currently intends to finance half of the equity from its own resources and the remainder (currently equivalent to approximately NIS 140 million) through the issuance of debentures to the public in Israel.

A portfolio with the scope of the Italian PV Portfolio is expected to produce during the first five years of operations average annual revenues of approximately € 31 million and average EBIDTA of approximately € 26 million. The expected annual finance expenses of the anticipated project finance (principal and interest) are approximately € 13 million (currently approximately NIS 45 million) and the remaining annual cash flow is expected to be approximately € 13 million (currently approximately NIS 45 million and the Company anticipates that this amount, along with cash flow available to the Company from other projects, will be available to the Company for repayment of debt.

The execution of the possible public offering, its terms, scope and timing, are subject to approval by the Company's board of directors, the receipt of regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TASE for the listing of the Debentures for trading, and other factors such as market conditions. Accordingly there can be no assurance that the public offering will be consummated or as to the terms and timing thereof.

The public offering described in this report, if made, will be made in Israel only and not to U.S. persons. The Debentures, if offered, will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and will not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or applicable exemption from the registration requirements according to the U.S. Securities Act of 1933. Nothing in this report constitutes a public offering or an invitation to purchase the Company's securities.
