MANAGEMENT STATEMENT During first half of 2022 the Company together with Elbit continued efforts to sell plot in Bangalore, India. Accordingly, the Company is taking all necessary steps to protect its interest in the Bangalore project, including by filling an appeal before the National Company Law Appellate Tribunal, Chennai, India against the decision of the National Company Law Tribunal, Bengaluru, India, which dismissed the insolvency proceedings initiated against the Purchaser for the recovery of the amounts due (refer also to Note 6).

In addition, on December 20, 2021 the Company and AFI Europe N.V. (“AFI Europe”) agreed to extend the Long Stop Date, which is the date on which the parties will execute a share purchase agreement, subject to the satisfaction of conditions precedent (the "SPA"), until December 31, 2022. The addendum was approved by the bondholders meeting held on November 25, 2021. Due to the board and management estimation that the Company is unable to serve its entire debt according to the current redemption date (January 1, 2023) in its current liquidity position, the Company intends to request from the bondholders of both series (Series A and Series B) postponement of the repayment of the remaining balance of the bonds. Results During the first half of the year, Plaza recorded a €6.3 million loss attributable to the shareholders of the Company (30 June 2021: €9 million). The losses were mainly from the Net Finance Costs which were decreased to €4.9 million in 2022, from €7.5 million in 2021 mainly due to foreign currency gain on bonds (including inflation) and interests’ expenses accrued on the debentures (partly due to penalty interest calculated on the deferred principal); and from administrative expenses and share in results of equity-accounted investees. Total result of operations excluding finance income and finance cost was a loss of €1.3 million in 2022 compared to reported loss of €1.5 million in the first half of 2021, mainly due to share in result of equity accounted investees and administrative expenses. The consolidated cash position (cash on standalone basis as well as fully owned subsidiaries) as of 30 June 2022 was €3.2 million (31 December 2021: €4.7 million). Liquidity & Financing Plaza ended the period with a consolidated cash position of circa €3.2 million, compared to €4.7 million at the end of 2021. As of June 30, 2022, the Group's outstanding obligation to bondholders (including accrued interests) are app. €126.6 million. As disclosed in Note 7(e) below the Company was not able to meet its final redemption obligation to its (Series A and Series B) bondholders, due on July 1, 2022, and on June 16, 2022, the bondholders approved to postpone the final redemption date to January 1, 2023. Due to the board and management estimation that the Company is unable to serve its entire debt according to the current bond's repayment schedule in its current liquidity position, the Company intends to request the bondholders of both series to postpone the repayment of the remaining balance of the bonds. However, there is an uncertainty if the bondholders will approve the request. In the case that the bondholders would declare their remaining claims to become immediately due and payable, the Company would not be in a position to settle those claims and would need to enter into an additional debt restructuring or might cease to be a going concern. Strategy and Outlook The Company’s priorities are focused on efforts to sign definitive sale agreement of Casa Radio project, getting further proceeds for Bangalore. The Company also intends to seek for bondholders’ approval for postponement of the repayment of the bonds. In addition, the Company intends to continue the cost-cutting of its operational cost. OPERATIONAL REVIEW Over the course of the year to date, Plaza has continued to make progress against its operational and strategic objectives. The Company’s current assets are summarised in the table below (as of balance sheet date): Asset/ Project Location Nature of asset Size sqm (GLA) Plaza’s effective ownership % Status Casa Radio Bucharest, Romania Mixed-use retail, hotel and leisure plus office scheme 467,000 (GBA including parking spaces) 75 Pre-sale agreement signed Bangalore Bangalore, India Residential Scheme 218,500 47.5 Amended revised agreement in place FINANCIAL REVIEW Results In 2022, the administrative expenses amounted to €0.6 million, an increase comparing to €0.4 million in the first half of 2021. The increase was a result of additional expenses for legal services in respect to initiated by the Company of an arbitration process in Romania as states above in connection with Casa Radio Project. Net Finance Costs decreased from €7.5 million in the first 6 months of 2021 to €4.9 million in the first 6 months of 2022. The main components of Net Finance Costs were foreign currency gain on bonds (including inflation) and interests’ expenses accrued on the debentures which includes also penalty interest calculated on the deferred principal. As a result, the loss for the period amounted to circa €6.3 million in the first 6 months of 2022, representing a basic and diluted loss per share for the period of €0.92 (H1 2021: €1.31 loss). Balance sheet and cash flow The balance sheet as of 30 June 2022 showed total assets of €8.6 million compared to total assets of €9.8 million at the end of 2021, mainly as a result of administrative expenses and costs of operations and decrease in Equity accounted investees.

General Background According to the abovementioned regulation, upon existence of warning signs as defined in the regulation, the Company is obliged to attach its report’s projected cash flow for a period of two years, commencing with the date of approval of the reports ("Projected Cash Flow"). The material uncertainty related to going concern was included in Note 1(b). In light of the material uncertainty that the SPA between the Company and AFI Europe N.V. will eventually be executed and/or that the transaction will be consummated as presented above or at all, (refer to Note 5) as well as the default of purchaser of Bangalore project to meet payments schedule according to the signed amendment agreement (refer to Note 6), the board and management estimates that the Company is unable to serve its entire debt according to the due date the bondholders approved to postpone the final redemption date. Accordingly, it is expected that the Company will not be able to meet its entire contractual obligations in the following 12 months. With such warning signs, the Company is providing projected cash flow for the period of 24 months following for the coming two years. 2. Projected cash flow The Company has implemented the restructuring plan that was approved by the Dutch court on July 9, 2014 (the “Restructuring Plan”). Under the Restructuring Plan, principal payments under the bonds issued by the Company and originally due in the years 2013 to 2015 were deferred for a period of four and a half years, and principal payments originally due in 2016 and 2017 were deferred for a period of one year. During first three months of 2017, the Company paid to its bondholders a total amount of NIS 191.7 million (EUR 49.2 million) as an early redemption. Upon such payments, the Company complied with the Early Prepayment Term (early redemption at the total sum of at least NIS 382 million) and thus obtained a deferral of one year for the remaining contractual obligations of the bonds. In January 2018, a settlement agreement was signed by and among the Company and the two Israeli Series of Bonds. On November 22, 2018 the Company announced based on its current forecasts, that the Company expected to pay the accrued interest on Series A and Series B Bonds on December 31, 2018, in accordance with the repayment schedule determined in the Company's Restructuring Plan and Settlement Agreement with Series A and Series B Bondholders from 11 January 2018 (the “Settlement Agreement”).

In addition, during June 2019 the bondholders approved the deferral of the full payment of principal due on July 1, 2019 and of 58% ("deferred interest amount") of the sum of interest (consisting of the total interest accrued for the outstanding balance of the principal, including interest for part of the principal payment which was deferred as of February 18, 2019, plus interest arrears for part of the principal which was fixed on February 18, 2019 and was not paid by the Company and all in accordance with the provisions of the trust deed; "the full amount of interest"), the effective date of which is June 19, 2019, and the payment date was fixed as of July 1, 2019. The company paid on the said date a total amount of circa EUR 1.17 million, which is only 42% of the full amount of interest. On July 11, 2019, the Company announced that its Romanian subsidiary had signed a binding agreement to sell land in Romania (refer to Note 5(3)(f) of the consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2020), and that the Company would use part of the proceeds now received by it EUR 0.75 million (hereinafter: "the amount payable"), in order to make a partial interest payment to the bondholders (Series A) and (Series B) issued by the Company. The payment required changes in the repayment schedule and amendments of the trust deeds which was approved unanimously by the Bondholders. The amount payable was paid on August 14, 2019 and reflects 30% of accrued interest as of that date. On November 17, 2019, the bondholders of Series A and Series B approved a deferral of all the scheduled Principal payment and app. 87% of deferral of the scheduled Interest payment, both, as of December 31, 2019 to July 1, 2020.

Following receiving the Settlement Amount related to the final price adjustment of the sale of Belgrade Plaza and in light of the potential negative impact of the Covid-19 on the possibility to receive future proceeds from the Company's plots in India, the Company decided to increase the amount to be paid to the bondholders on July 1, 2020, from EUR 250,000 to EUR 500,000. The amount reflected 6.74% of accrued interest as of that date. On November 12, 2020, the bondholders of Series A and Series B approved: (i) to postpone the final redemption date to July 1, 2021 of all the scheduled Principal; that on January 1, 2021 the Company will pay to its bondholders a partial interest payment in the total amount of EUR 200,000 and to deferral all other unpaid interest.

Therefore, delays in the realisation of the Company's assets and investments or realisation at a lower price than expected by the Company, as well as any other deviation from the Company's assumptions (such as additional expenses due to suspension of trading, delay in submitting the statutory reports etc.), could have an adverse effect on the Company's cash flow and the Company's ability to service its indebtedness in a timely manner.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for each of the periods presented comprise the Company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the "Group") and the Group's interest in jointly controlled entities. The Company is listed on the premium segment of the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and to trading on the main market of the London Stock Exchange ("LSE"), the Warsaw Stock Exchange ("WSE") and on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange ("TASE"). The Company's immediate parent company was Elbit Ultrasound (Luxemburg) B.V. / s.a.r.l ("EUL"), which held 44.9% of the Company's shares, till December 19, 2018 when EUL informed that it has signed a trust agreement according to which EUL will deposit its shares of the Company with a trustee and no longer considers itself to be the controlling shareholder of the Company. At the date of approval of these financial statements EUL held 20.55% of the Company’s shares (please refer to note 7(a) regarding the sale of app. 2.67% of the Company’s shares held by EUL). b. Going concern and liquidity position of the Company: As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s outstanding obligations to bondholders (including accrued interests) are app. EUR 126.6 million due date of which was postponed to January 1, 2023 (the "Current Due date") (please refer to Note 7(e)). Due to the above the Company’s primary need is for liquidity. The Company’s current and future resources include the following: 1. Cash and cash equivalents (including the cash of fully owned subsidiaries) of approximately EUR 3.2 million. 2. The Company and AFI Europe N.V. (“AFI Europe”) entered into an addendum to the pre-sale agreement entered into between the Parties in connection with the sale of its subsidiary (the "SPV") which holds 75% in the Casa Radio Project (the "Project") (the "Addendum" and the "Agreement", respectively) pursuant to which the Parties agreed to extend the Long Stop Date, which is the date on which the parties will execute a share purchase agreement, subject to the satisfaction of conditions precedent (the "SPA"), until December 31, 2022. The addendum was approved by the bondholders meeting held on November 25, 2021. There can be no certainty that the SPA will eventually be executed and/or that the transaction will be consummated as presented above or at all. 3. Following the default of purchaser of Bangalore project to meet payments schedule according to the signed amendment agreement (refer to Note 6) there can be no certainty that the agreement will be completed, hence at this time no resources are expected to be available in forceable future. NOTE 1: - CORPORATE INFORMATION (Cont.) As of June 30, 2021, the Company is not in compliance with the main Covenants as defined in the restructuring plan (for more details refer also to Note 8 of the annual financial statements as of December 31, 2020), hence under defaulted which could also trigger early repayment clause by the bondholders. Due to the abovementioned and due to the board and management estimation that the Company is unable to serve its entire debt on the Current Due Date, the Company intends to request the bondholders of both series an additional postponement of the repayment of the remaining balance of the bonds. However, there is an uncertainty if the bondholders will approve the request. In the case that the bondholders would declare their remaining claims to become immediately due and payable, the Company would not be in a position to settle those claims and would need to enter to an additional debt restructuring or might cease to be a going concern basis. Due to the abovementioned conditions a material uncertainty exists that casts significant doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that the Group will be able to meet the mandatory repayment obligations of its bonds and other working capital requirements. c. Impact of the Covid-19 The risks associated with the Covid-19 global health and economic crisis may affect the Company indirectly, through possible regulatory changes and the impact on the macroeconomic environment, which may affect the conducted activities which are concentrated at selling of the assets. The Company monitors the consequences of the event and the actions taken in countries in which it operates and assesses the risks and exposures arising from these consequences. d. The effects of the Russia-Ukraine war: In February 2022, a war broke out between Russia and Ukraine which is ongoing and continues to cause numerous casualties, damages to infrastructure and disruption of the Ukraine economy. In response, several countries (including the U.S., the UK and the EU) imposed economic sanctions against certain Russian and Russian related entities and individuals around the world and various sanctions have also been imposed on Belarus. These sanctions are likely to directly impact those entities and individuals and indirectly affect third parties which have business affiliations with those entities and individuals as well as certain industries in Russia and Belarus. Potential fluctuations in commodity prices and foreign exchange rates, import and export restrictions, availability of local materials and services and access to local resources are all liable to affect entities that have significant operations or exposures in or with Russia, Belarus or Ukraine. NOTE 2: - BASIS OF PREPARATION a. Basis of preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial data: The interim condensed consolidated financial data for the six months period ended June 30, 2022 have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standard IAS 34 ("Interim Financial Reporting") as adopted by the European Union. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual consolidated financial statements as of 31 December 2021. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2022 have been neither audited nor reviewed by the Company's auditors. The financial information for the half year ended 30 June 2021 has neither been audited nor reviewed by the auditors. Selected explanatory notes are, however, included to explain events and transactions that are significant to understanding the changes in the Group's financial position and performance since the last annual consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021. The interim condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2021 were authorized by the Board of Directors on 30 August 2022. b. New standards, interpretations and amendments adopted by the Group: The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021, except for the adoption of new standards effective as of 1 January 2022. The Group has not early adopted any other standard, interpretation or amendment that has been issued but is not yet effective. Amendment to IAS 37, "Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets": In May 2020, the IASB issued an amendment to IAS 37, regarding which costs a company should include when assessing whether a contract is onerous ("the Amendment"). According to the Amendment, costs of fulfilling a contract include both the incremental costs (for example, raw materials and direct labour) and an allocation of other costs that relate directly to fulfilling a contract (for example, depreciation of an item of property, plant and equipment used in fulfilling the contract). The Amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022 and applies to contracts for which all obligations in respect thereof have not yet been fulfilled as of January 1, 2022. The application of the Amendment does not require the restatement of comparative data. Instead the opening balance of retained earnings on the date of initial application date is adjusted for the cumulative effect of the Amendment. The application of the Amendment did not have a material impact on the Company's interim financial statements. NOTE 2: - BASIS OF PREPARATION (Cont.) Annual improvements to IFRSs 2018-2020: In May 2020, the IASB issued certain amendments in the context of the Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2018-2020 Cycle. The main amendment is to IFRS 9, "Financial Instruments" ("the Amendment"). The Amendment clarifies which fees a company should include in the "10% test" described in paragraph B3.3.6 of IFRS 9 when assessing whether the terms of a debt instrument that has been modified or exchanged are substantially different from the terms of the original debt instrument. According to the Amendment, fees paid net of any fees received that are included in the cash flows are only those fees paid or received between the borrower and the lender, including fees paid or received by either the borrower or lender on the other's behalf. The Amendment is effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2022. The Amendment is applied to financial liabilities that are modified or exchanged on or after the beginning of the annual reporting period in which the entity first applies the Amendment that is from January 1, 2022. c. Disclosure of new standards in the period prior to their adoption: There are currently no amendments to existing standards and/or newly issued standards other than those disclosed in the annual consolidated financial statements. NOTE 3: - USE OF JUDGEMENT AND ESTIMATES In preparing this interim condensed consolidated financial information, management has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In preparing this interim condensed consolidated financial information, the significant judgments made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were principally the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2021, save for the changes highlighted above. Refer also to Note 1(b) above for significant estimations performed. NOTE 4: - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Carrying amounts and fair values In respect to the Company's financial instruments assets not presented at fair value, being mostly short-term market interest bearing liquid balances, the Company believes that the carrying amount approximates its fair value. In respect of the Company's financial instruments liabilities: Fair value of the quoted debentures is based on price quotations at the reporting date and is classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. NOTE 4: - FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Cont.) Carrying amount Fair value June 30, December 31, June 30, December 31 2022 2021 2022 2021 Not audited Not reviewed Audited Not audited Not reviewed Audited EUR ‘000 EUR ‘000 EUR ‘000 EUR ‘000 Statement of financial position Debentures A – Israeli NIS bonds 41,203 41,275 4,576 6,025 Debentures B – Israeli NIS bonds 58,620 58,724 8,190 8,849 The total contractual liability of the Debentures was EUR 126.6 million as of June 30, 2022. NOTE 5: - CASA RADIO a. Following Note 5(2)(c) to the annual financial statements relating the discussions with the Romanian authorities, there have been no significant events since the publication of the annual financial statements as of December 31, 2021. b. Following Note 5(2)(e) to the annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021 which discloses that the The Company and AFI Europe N.V. (“AFI Europe”) entered into an addendum to the pre-sale agreement entered into between the Parties in connection with the sale of its subsidiary (the "SPV") which holds 75% in the Casa Radio Project (the "Project") (the "Addendum" and the "Agreement", respectively) pursuant to which the Parties agreed to extend the Long Stop Date, which is the date on which the parties will execute a share purchase agreement, subject to the satisfaction of conditions precedent (the "SPA"), until December 31, 2022. The addendum was approved by the bondholders meeting held on November 25, 2021. Following the above, the Parties continue their attempts to receive the authority's approval in order to be able to execute the SPA, still there has been no progress since the pre-sale has been signed. In light of the above the Company is exploring all its options in order to obtain progress, including among others its legal options. For details regarding an Engagement letter with a law firm in London in connection with the legal proceedings in the “Casa Radio” project refer to Note 18(b) to the annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021. For details regarding the issuance of a notice of dispute and acceptance of offer and consent to arbitrate to Romania with respect to the “Casa Radio” project refer to Note 7(c). Accordingly, as of May 16, 2022 the Company has submitted with International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (the “Centre”) a Request for Arbitration (the “Request”) against Romania. The Request was registered by the Centre on June 3, 2022. Further to the Centre’s registration of the Request and pursuant to Rule 2(1)(a) of the Rules of Procedure for Arbitration Proceedings (the “Arbitration Rules”), the Company set out Romania proposal with respect to the number of arbitrators and the method for their appointment in these proceedings. At the current stage, the Company and Romania are in the process of agreeing above mentioned proposal. Due to the above, there can be no certainty that the SPA will eventually be executed and/or that the transaction will be completed. NOTE 5: - CASA RADIO (Cont.) c. Write-down of trading properties: As detailed in the annual consolidated financial statements, the value of the trading property of the Project was fully reduced (for more details refer to Note 5(3) to the annual consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2021). Still, the Company believes that despite this reduction there is no change in the value of the Company’s rights under the PPP Agreement. In addition, management, believes that in case they will decide to pursue it material economic damage, the Company has a good case to claim compensation for such damages. On the other hand, if the Company comes to an understanding with the Romanian authorities, it will measure the Casa Radio NRV to reflect its updated financial projections. NOTE 6:- EQUITY ACCOUNTED INVESTEES Material events and updates during the reporting period: Bangalore: Following Note 6(b)(1) to the annual consolidated financial statements regarding the agreement (the “Sale Agreement”) between Elbit Plaza India Real Estate Holdings Limited (a subsidiary held by the Company (50%) and Elbit Imaging ltd.(50%)) ("EPI") and a third-party local developer (the "Partner") to sell 100% of EPI’s interest in the SPV (subsidiary of EPI, which owns 54 acres plot in Bangalore, India) to the Partner, on April 13, 2022 the Company announced that the Partner submitted to EPI an unformal non-binding proposal to purchase 100% of EPI’s interest in the Project and the completion of the transaction in exchange for a payment of INR 112-117 crores (approximately EUR 13.6-14.2 million) in lieu of the remain amount of consideration according to the Sale Agreement (INR 269 crores (approximately EUR 32.6 million)). On June 28, 2022 the Company announced that the founder and CEO of the Partner has been arrested by Indian law enforcement authorities on suspicion of money laundering and on August 2, 2022 the Company updated that the founder and CEO of Partner has been released from custody of the certain government agency which had arrested him. The negotiation between the Parties have not yet matured into a binding agreement. In order to preserve EPI’s rights, EPI has initiated arbitration proceeding in Singapore versus the Partner in accordance with the provisions of the Agreement between the Partner and EPI. In the period since May 19, 2022 till August 24, 2022 the Partner deposited in the SPV INR 22.5 crores (approximately EUR 2.77 million). There is no certainty that it will lead to closing, however the negotiation between the Parties is in advanced stage and the Parties continue to act to complete the transaction on the terms as set forth in non-binding proposal. As of this date, the Partner paid to EPI approximately INR 87.00 crores (approximately EUR 11.2 million) (Company part INR 43.5 crores (approximately EUR 5.6 million)) and has to pay to EPI the remaining amount out of the consideration of approximately INR 269 crores (approximately EUR 32.6 million) (Plaza part INR 134.5 crores (approximately EUR 16.3 million)) as per the Sale Agreement. NOTE 6:- EQUITY ACCOUNTED INVESTEES (Cont.) Net realizable value measurement of Bangalore project As for June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Group measured the net realizable value of the project. The net realizable value of the project based on the comparable method is INR 159 crores (App. EUR 19.3 million); 2021 - INR 172 crores (App. EUR 20.4 million). Due to decrease in value of the plot EPI recognized a write off in the amount of app. EUR 1.53 million (the Company’s part (50%) app. EUR 0.76 million). The evaluation method Value in INR million Value in EUR million Comparable Method 1,592 19.3 DCF Method 1,461 17.7 In light of the Company’s intention to sell the Plot to the Partner or to any other third party (see above), and in light of the uncertainty as to the completion of the transaction with the Partner, the Company believes that the comparable method reliably reflects the net realizable value of the Plot and therefore the Company recorded the value of the plot as of June, 2022 at the value of INR 159.2 crores (EUR 19.3 million) (the Company’s part (50%) app. EUR 9.6 million). The plot in Bangalore is still in land stage and therefore the value of the plot has been derived using land comparable method. The valuation of the property reflects the interest that the Partner still holds in the plot (10% as described above), the size of the plot, the non-contiguous land parcel, the petition/application filed with NCLAT against the partner and the money laundering by Enforcement Directorate against the Mantri Promoters. The following main parameters have been considered to arrive at the land value of the subject property by land sale comparison method: Parameter Premium (Discount) Applicable land value (INR Mn/acre) 99 Total land value (INR Mn) 5,361 Discount on account of Revised Master Plan 2015 Buffer zone norms (%) -25% Land Value after discount for RMP 2015 Buffer zone Norms (INR Mn /acre) 74 Presence of minority shareholder (partner) -20% Applicable Land Value after discount (INR Mn /acre) 59 Total land value (INR Mn) 3,217 Discount on account of the insolvency petition/appeal filed with NCLAT -45% Total land value (INR Mn) 1,769 Discount on account of money laundering by Enforcement Directorate against the Mantri Promoters -10% Total land value (INR Mn) 1,592 NOTE 7:- MATERIAL EVENTS DURING THE REPORTING PERIOD a.

Update regarding the sale agreement of plot in Bangalore, India For the details regarding sale agreement of plot in Bangalore, India please refer to the Note 6. c. Environmental Sustainability Policy On August 30, 2022 the Company adopted Environmental Sustainability Policy. d. Taskforce on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (“TCFD”) The Company notes the TCFD recommendations on climate-related financial disclosures. (1) BACKGROUND Released in 2017, the TCFD recommendations set out eleven recommended disclosures around four core areas for companies to report material climate-related information to the market via the mainstream financial report, as shown in Figure 1, below.4 In focusing on these four core areas of business practice and disclosure, the TCFD sought to ensure that consideration for climate-related matters were adequately embedded throughout the organization’s governance, strategy, and risk management processes and transparently reflected for both preparers and users alike. In doing so, this addresses the demand for information that is consistent, comparable, reliable and clear. The TCFD recommendations also promoted the use of climate scenario analysis for the assessment of corporate strategic resilience. Climate scenario analysis is offered as a means to inform users5 about a company’s strategic resilience, and enable companies to prepare and respond to the uncertainties of climate change and decarbonization efforts over different time horizons, both in terms of the timings of potential impacts as well as their magnitudes.6 By exploring a range of plausible and coherent climate futures and assessing the potential corporate risks and opportunities of each, companies can test their thinking and strategies, better understand the key drivers that will likely affect their business going forward, and adapt their strategies and ambitions accordingly. Whilst potentially challenging, scenario analysis is an essential component to TCFD reporting. It brings considerations of the short-, medium-, and long-term impacts of climate change into the present day, enabling companies and investors can act in a more informed and effective manner The UK took the pioneer status and local firms will be required to disclose climate-related financial information, ensuring they consider the risks and opportunities they face as a result of climate change. NOTE 8: - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (Cont.) • The UK is the first G20 country to make it mandatory for Britain’s largest businesses to disclose their climate-related risks and opportunities, in line with TCFD recommendations • new legislation will require firms to disclose climate-related financial information, with rules set to come into force from April 2022 • follows publication of UK’s landmark Net Zero Strategy and forms part of the government’s commitment to making the UK financial system the greenest in the world The UK is becoming the first G20 country to enshrine in law mandatory TCFD-aligned requirements for Britain’s largest companies and financial institutions to report on climate-related risks and opportunities. From 6 April 2022, over 1,300 of the largest UK-registered companies and financial institutions will have to disclose climate-related financial information on a mandatory basis – in line with recommendations from the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures. This will include many of the UK’s largest traded companies, banks and insurers, as well as private companies with over 500 employees and £500 million in turnover. The TCFD is an industry-led group which helps investors understand their financial exposure to climate risk and works with companies to disclose this information in a clear and consistent way. It was launched at the Paris COP21 in 2015 by the Financial Stability Board (FSB) and Mark Carney, the UN Special Envoy on Climate Action and Finance and UK Finance Adviser for COP26, and has since published a clear and achievable set of recommendations on climate-related financial disclosures. TCFD Recommendations The TCFD Recommendations, first launched in 2017, are designed to encourage consistent and comparable reporting on climate-related risks and opportunities by companies to their stakeholders. The TCFD Recommendations are structured around four content pillars: (i) Governance; (ii) Strategy; (iii) Risk Management; and (iv) Metrics & Targets; and eleven recommendations to support effective disclosure under each pillar. NOTE 8: - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (Cont.) Why it is important to respond to the TCFD recommendations now? The UK’s Green Finance Strategy sets out the Government’s expectations for all listed companies to disclose in line with the TCFD recommendations by 2022. CDP has already amended its disclosures to include a section related to the risks and opportunities arising from climate change, which is based on the TCFD recommendations. According to a 2019 TCFD status report, 340 investors with nearly $34 trillion in assets under management are asking companies to report under the recommendations. (2) CORPORATE INFORMATION For the details please refer to the Note 1. (3) GOVERNANCE In relation to the above trend and legislation, the Company finds itself, as a premium traded firm, in the reporting category. However, the intention was to regulate the way the largest firms in the UK are reporting in relation to the climate change. The legislation clearly specifies “companies with over 500 employees and £500 million in turnover.” The Company with its five employees, directors and the four lands it holds, clearly falls far behind the regulator’s criteria for reporting firms. The Company does not have its own offices, but sharing two offices in business hubs. The Company is a very small company and cannot be compared with the above-mentioned giant scales. In fact, we are under the impression, the Company has by far an insignificant impact over the climate change, compared even with a micro company. Just like the rest of the western world, the Company takes climate changes very seriously and is taking measures in order to increase its climate change orientation and to decrees negative effect on it in areas that are in the company’s control. Previously, the Company, was not very active on the topic of global warming, mainly due to is type and limited operations. In 2022, due to new reporting requirements and world trends, the company is much more aware of the topic and is taking a proactive approach. Since this year, the company is carefully looking into its own operation and constantly strives to reduce carbon footprint and improve the impact of its operations have on the environment, even though, that impact is negligible. The Company has written an environmental sustainability policy that is being reviewed and adopted in Q4 of 2022. That policy creates a commitment of the company to global climate change and will influence the company’s operations in favour of minimalizing carbon footprint. (4) STRATEGY As the board of the Company is made aware of the climate change issues and the TFCD reporting, it starts to embed climate changing considerations into board daily decisions. The first challenge was to study the issue and the board empowered the Chairman to study the issue and educate the Board. NOTE 8: - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (Cont.) The second challenge, was to create an environmental sustainability policy that will set the company in the right direction in terms of climate change countering. Despite of the very limited current level of operations the company experiences, a provisional environmental policy was drafted and will be adopted by the Board on next Board meeting. This policy will add the environmental consideration to every business decision the company takes in the future. As the Company is in a runoff mode, climate related risks are potentially relevant in the short and maybe medium time frame. In both terms, the company sees a small risk of higher level of maintenance attributed to the four plots it has, due to extreme weather events. These are included but not limited to: cleaning, evacuating and maintaining the plots. The first impact of environmental study and climate change, was on the company’s Board. After the adoption of the environmental policy by the Board, the Company will observe the management taking actions accordingly and having the environment in mind in daily operations, according to the new policy. In light if the above mentioned, resilience, is very limited to absence, when taking into account the current operations of the Company. (5) RISK MANAGEMENT Risks analysis requires a sufficient amount of data in order to produce an accurate analysis. In the Company case, there is only so much data that can be used for such a study. While the company does not build, develop or produce anything, the risks study is very limited. Physical risks As long as the Company is not developing its lands, there is no value chain that might be affected by storms, extreme weather or weather changes. Not even whether related disasters. The Company does not see how changes such as floods, extreme waves or droughts can have a major impact on its office related work. The consequences of the above phenomena are limited to an increase in either cooling or warming expenses. One low factor risk is identified in an extreme weather condition, when any of a company’s plot is damaged due to such weather. That will lead to some expenses of cleaning, evacuating and restoring expenses. A further related risk study is advised to the BOD to be performed in the current lands where the company have the four plots. Any new risk identified locally, will be imbedded to the financial planning ahead. NOTE 8: - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS (Cont.) Transition risks Just like Physical risks, transitional risks are minimized when dealing with a five office n]based people, rather than a productive firm with mage processes and output. Figure 1 – non-exhaustive list of climate-related risks and opportunities: Risk type Risk example Opportunity example Technology Technology related risks are considered very limited in affecting the Company operations at the moment The Company does not see any opportunity in technology in relations to current operations Policy Regulatory changes can only have an impact of the way the Company reports at the moment. Local regulatory changes may affect to some effect, some of the plots the Company holds. Currently, the Company does not identify any opportunity in weather related policy change. Market In current situation, where the Company operates as B to B, rather than B to C, it does not recognize a market relevant risk. The Company is not operating in B to C markets and therefore the market opportunity is irrelevant. Legal and reputational A climate-related incident affecting an industry can and might affect a more comprehensive look into the plots the Company has. The Company does not recognize an opportunity in this section. (6) METRIC AND TARGETS Taking into account the limited scope of company’s operations, it is clear that the metrics and targets are somewhat irrelevant for these operations. So is the disclosing of scopes 1-3 and the GHG emission. One needs sufficient operations in order to be able to produce, analyse and counter measures. The Company is by far not having significant operations in order to demonstrate the study and the cure. The Company’s impact on climate change is negligible. - | |
