3Q'25

"For the third quarter, ICL delivered solid year-over-year growth in both sales and EBITDA, even as some regional and end-market performance varied. Sales were once again led by our specialties-driven businesses, with combined Industrial Products, Phosphate Solutions and Growing Solutions sales up for both the third quarter and first nine months of the year. For our Potash segment, sales increased over the same time periods on improved pricing for both contracted and spot transactions," said Elad Aharonson, president and CEO of ICL.

"We are pleased with our third quarter and year-to-date performance and are also looking toward the future. Over the past several months, we have completed an extensive and comprehensive review of our entire business. As a result of this work, we identified two main growth engines: specialty crop nutrition, which is part of Growing Solutions, and specialty food solutions, part of our Phosphate Solutions. These two growth engines are expected to drive sustainable and profitable growth for ICL in the coming years, through a combination of strategic acquisitions and focused organic initiatives. This is an exciting time for ICL, and I will be sharing an overview of our new strategy on our earnings call later today.

"As part of this strategy, we will be sharpening our focus on maximizing our core businesses, such as Potash and Industrial Products. We will also be reallocating resources to opportunities that best align with our capital allocation priorities and reevaluating non-synergistic and low-potential activities. Finally, we will maintain and expand our efforts around delivering overall portfolio optimization and cost efficiency across all activities.

"For our portfolio optimization efforts, we have shifted our approach to LFP battery materials. While we will remain a provider of raw materials to battery customers, we will not be moving further downstream into cathode active materials. This means we will be discontinuing our previously announced projects into St. Louis and Spain. This decision was made after a careful review of shifting market dynamics and reflects the impact of recent changes in government policies, including the termination of the U.S. Department of Energy grant. In addition, high investment and operating costs, combined with expected low prices, have led us to conclude the project is not currently competitive. As a result, we intend to focus our efforts on other opportunities that offer a better strategic fit and provide greater potential for ICL.

"Additionally, we recently signed a MOU with the State of Israel regarding the Dead Sea Concession. We believe ICL is the most suitable candidate for the next Concession, and this significant step forward provides ICL with long-term regulatory clarity and business certainty and both are essential for our continued operations and future growth. We further believe that it is also expected to provide greater financial and operational certainty and is likely to promote fairer and more transparent terms for the future concession. It will allow us to stay focused on our core mission - driving profitable growth in our specialty businesses and strengthening our leadership across all business segments, " concluded Aharonson.

The company reiterated its guidance for specialties-driven EBITDA of between $0.95 billion to $1.15 billion for full year 2025. For Potash, the company continues to expect sales volumes of between 4.3 million and 4.5 million metric tons. (1a)

   --  Relatively stable performance versus the prior year and in-line market 
      expectations. 

Key developments versus prior year

   --  Flame retardants: Overall sales decreased, as bromine-based product 
      sales declined -- mainly due to continued softness in the construction 
      end-market -- however, higher prices continued to improved profitability. 
      Both sales and profitability of phosphorous-based solutions increased, as 
      higher volumes and prices followed the implementation of duties on 
      Chinese imports in the United States. 
 
   --  Elemental bromine: Sales decreased on lower volumes, however, higher 
      prices once again contributed to improved profitability. 
 
   --  Clear brine fluids: Sales remained stable. 
 
   --  Specialty minerals: Both sales and profitability increased on higher 
      pricing and volume growth in the food end-market.

   --  EBITDA of $169 million vs. $120 million.

      roughly stable on a year-over-year basis.

   --  EBITDA of $134 million vs. $140 million. 
 
   --  Both specialty and commodity phosphates delivered year-over-year growth 
      in sales, with specialty performance driven by higher volumes and 
      commodity results driven by higher prices. 

Key developments versus prior year

   --  White phosphoric acid: Sales increased on higher volumes and prices. 
 
   --  Industrial phosphates: Sales were up slightly, despite lower prices, as 
      volumes were higher in North America.

      North America and Asia Pacific. 
 
   --  Battery materials: Sales increased in China year-over-year, reflecting 
      both higher volumes and prices.

   --  Sales of $561 million vs. $538 million. 
 
   --  EBITDA of $50 million vs. $64 million.

      specialty solutions. 

Key developments versus prior year

   --  Brazil: Sales and profit both declined year-over-year on lower volumes, 
      due to reduced farmer affordability and a slow start to the season. 
 
   --  Europe: Strong growth in both sales and profit, with increased sales of 
      specialty agriculture products. 
 
   --  North America: Significant increase in both sales and profit, 
      reflecting higher volumes. 
 
   --  Asia: Sales increased, but rising raw materials costs impacted profit. 
 
 
   --  Segment trends: Specialty agriculture sales increased slightly, with 
      higher volumes in the United States and India partially offset by lower 
      volumes in Brazil. Turf and ornamental sales increased slightly, as 
      favorable pricing offset lower quantities. 

Financial Items

Financing Expenses

Net financing expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $44 million, up versus $39 million in the corresponding quarter of last year, with the increase primarily due to net exchange rate differences and hedging transactions, partially offset by a decrease in net interest expense.

Tax Expenses

Reported tax expenses in the third quarter of 2025 were $57 million, reflecting an effective tax rate of 31%, compared to $49 million in the corresponding quarter of last year, reflecting an effective tax rate of 28%. The relatively higher effective tax rate in the quarter was primarily due to the appreciation of the average exchange rate of the Israeli shekel versus the U.S. dollar.

Guidance

(1a) The company only provides guidance on a non-GAAP basis. The company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) to GAAP net income (loss), due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting, and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, in particular, because special items such as restructuring, litigation, and other matters, used to calculate projected net income (loss) vary dramatically based on actual events, the company is not able to forecast on a GAAP basis with reasonable certainty all deductions needed in order to provide a GAAP calculation of projected net income (loss) at this time. The amount of these deductions may be material, and therefore could result in projected GAAP net income (loss) being materially less than projected adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP). The guidance speaks only as of the date hereof. The company undertakes no obligation to update any of these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this news release or to reflect actual outcomes, unless required by law. The company provides guidance for Specialties-driven EBITDA, which includes Industrial Products, Growing Solutions and Phosphate Solutions. For the Potash business, the company is providing sales volumes guidance.

Non-GAAP Statement

The company discloses in this quarterly report non-IFRS financial measures titled adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the company's shareholders, diluted adjusted earnings per share, and adjusted EBITDA. Management uses adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the company's shareholders, diluted adjusted earnings per share, and adjusted EBITDA to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period. The company calculates adjusted operating income by adjusting operating income to add certain items, as set forth in the reconciliation table under "Adjustments to reported operating, and net income (non-GAAP)" below. Certain of these items may recur. The company calculates adjusted net income attributable to the company's shareholders by adjusting net income attributable to the company's shareholders to add certain items, as set forth in the reconciliation table under "Adjustments to reported operating, and net income (non-GAAP)" below, excluding the total tax impact of such adjustments. The company calculates diluted adjusted earnings per share by dividing adjusted net income by the weighted-average number of diluted ordinary shares outstanding. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income before financing expenses, net, taxes on income, share in earnings of equity-accounted investees, depreciation and amortization, and certain adjustments presented in the reconciliation table under "Consolidated adjusted EBITDA, and diluted adjusted earnings per share for the periods of activity" below, which were adjusted for in calculating the adjusted operating income.

You should not view adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the company's shareholders, diluted adjusted earnings per share or adjusted EBITDA as a substitute for operating income or net income attributable to the company's shareholders determined in accordance with IFRS, and you should note that the company's definitions of adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the company's shareholders, diluted adjusted earnings per share, and adjusted EBITDA may differ from those used by other companies. Additionally, other companies may use other measures to evaluate their performance, which may reduce the usefulness of the company's non-IFRS financial measures as tools for comparison. However, the company believes adjusted operating income, adjusted net income attributable to the company's shareholders, diluted adjusted earnings per share, and adjusted EBITDA provide useful information to both management, and investors by excluding certain items that management believes are not indicative of ongoing operations. Management uses these non-IFRS measures to evaluate the company's business strategies and management performance. The company believes these non--IFRS measures provide useful information to investors because they improve the comparability of financial results between periods and provide for greater transparency of key measures used to evaluate performance.

The company presents a discussion in the period-to-period comparisons of the primary drivers of change in the company's results of operations. This discussion is based in part on management's best estimates of the impact of the main trends on the company's businesses. The company has based the following discussion on its financial statements. You should read such discussion together with the company's financial statements.

       business continuity and funding. For 2024, reflects mainly a write-off

(2)    For 2025, reflects provisions for early retirement due to restructuring 
       at certain sites, as part of the Company's global efficiency plan.
