RNS No 7878a DEAD SEA WORKS LIMITED 1 September 1999 DEAD SEA WORKS LTD (the "company") Results for second quarter 1999 Following are the financial results of Dead Sea Works Ltd to 30 June 1999 on a consolidated basis. The consolidated reports include primarily Dead Sea Magnesium Ltd., Iberpotash S.A., and the company's share (50%) in Clearon Corp. This is the first year in which Iberpotash S.A. is included in the income statement. The company decided to examine various possibilities for separating its magnesium metal operations from the Company. Examination of these possibilities have not yet been completed. Subsequent to the balance Sheet date, Dead Sea Magnesium Ltd. completed preparing, together with an external consultant hired for this purpose, a Business Plan. Also, the Company assessed the fair value of its magnesium metal plant assets through an independent valuator. Fair value was based upon discounted cash flows of the magnesium metal plant. As a result of this assessment, the fair value of the magnesium metal plant assets was estimated to be less than book value, such that the Company included a provision for a write-down of magnesium metal plant assets in "other income (expenses), net" amounting to $46.5 million, thereby decreasing net income by $22.7 million, after taking into consideration effects on tax on income and the minority interest. On 1 March 1999 the Company's Board of Directors approved the decision that the Company sell its share of Clearon Ltd. to an associated company. On 30 July this sale was completed. The amount received totaled $17.7 million. The excess of the amount received over book value of the investment was $1.1 million as of the Balance Sheet date, and will be credited to capital reserves. The net income for this quarter was $2.2 million, including the provision for the write-down of the magnesium metal plant assets. Without the one-time write-down provision, net income for the quarter was $24.9 million. This compares to net income of $16.0 million for the equivalent quarter last year. The operating income for the quarter was $34.7 million, compared to $25.5 million for the same quarter last year. During the quarter the Company signed a compromise agreement with the Israel Ports Authority over the leasing of port facilities over the period 1988 to 1998. The excess of previously made provisions over the actual payment, amounting to $9.3 million, was included in other income. On 19 May 1999 dividends amounting to $29.5 million were distributed for the Company's 1998 profits. On 21 July 1999 it was decided to distribute a dividend amounting to $90.5 million, with an ex date dividend of 22 August 1999 and payment date of 6 September 1999.
