General Crop Protection Market Environment

In Q1 2023 commodity crop prices continued to decline as the result of a slowing global economy and better than expectedproduction in some regions. However, crop prices remain elevated above the 10-yr average as crop inventories remainlow, supporting positive grower margins.While Q1 2022 was characterized by early purchases as a result of concerns about product availability and supplyshortages, in Q1 2023 the channel and farmers were much more cautious regarding input purchases. An improved supplyand logistics situation, relatively high channel inventories as well as the deflationary environment of AI prices in China haveled customers to adopt a “wait-and-see” approach regarding some crop protection purchases.

Analysis of Financial Highlights

(1) Revenues

Revenues in the first quarter declined by approximately 11% (-4% in RMB terms; -7% in CER terms) to $1,259 million,reflecting an increase of 1% in prices and a decrease of 8% in volumes mainly due to high channel inventory in the marketand declining raw material prices supporting a "wait and see" approach across the board that impacted volumes and pricesin the first quarter in 2023.

Regional Sales Performance

* 2022 denote proforma sales. As of 2023, the India, Middle East & Africa (IMA) region has been reorganized such thatthe countries formerly included in this region are now included in the Europe region (renamed EAME) or in the AsiaPacific region.Europe, Africa & Middle East (EAME):

The sales in EAME increased in the first quarter in constant exchange rates, most notably in UK and Germany, despitedelayed rainfall, high channel inventories and continued drought in Southern Europe.

North America:

The Consumer & Professional Solutions sales decreased in the first quarter, impacted by weather conditions as wellinflationary pressure on consumer demand and a slowdown in the professional market mostly due high levels of inventory

in the channel and expectation for price decreases.Sales in the US Ag market decreased in the first quarter as the market is in a state of "wait and see" due to high channelinventory and in anticipation of the spring season.Sales in Canada increased in the first quarter as the Company expanded its product portfolio during 2022 and while theCompany's products' pricing held. This was achieved despite cold weather delaying spring product movement, creatinga backing up of inventory in the channel.Latin America:

Sales in Brazil increased slightly in the first quarter, reflecting a "wait and see" approach in the market in light of decliningselling prices and competition to sell the high, expensive inventory accumulated throughout the channel.In other LATAM countries slightly lower sales were achieved due to the negative impact of the weather in Argentina andEcuador as well as lower sales in Peru.Asia Pacific:

During the first quarter the Company's sales decreased in the Asia Pacific region following a decline in the Company'ssales in China of raw material, intermediates and fine chemicals due to softening of demand, strong competition and anoverall decline in market prices.The Company's sales of its branded portfolio in China increased in local currency following strong sales of differentiatedproducts and despite the decrease in market selling prices and high channel inventory.Sales in Pacific region in the first quarter were negatively impacted as the positive La Ni?a effect begins to pass, whiledeclining prices of AI from China and India encourage a "wait and see" approach. In India, the sales were impacted byexchange rates and by reduced market demand following high Q4 2022 market sales. In the rest of Asia, Thailand andSouth Korea presented strong performance in the first quarter.

(2) Cost of Goods and Gross Profit

The decline in gross profit in the first quarter was due to the decline in sales, as described above, exchange rates andhigh-cost inventory. These impacts were slightly moderated by the improvement in the Company's sales mix of highermargin products and lower transportation and logistics costs.

(3) Operating Expenses

Operating expenses include Sales and Marketing, General and Administration and R&D.The Company recorded certain non-operational, mostly non-cash, charges within its reported operating expensesamounting to RMB 65 million ($9.5 million) in Q1 2023 in comparison to RMB 36 million ($5.7 million) in Q1 2022, mainlyas follows:

(I) Non-cash amortization charges in respect of Transfer assets received and written-up related to the 2017 ChemChina-Syngenta acquisition. The proceeds from the Divestment of crop protection products in connection with the approval bythe EU Commission of the acquisition of Syngenta by ChemChina, net of taxes and transaction expenses, were paid toSyngenta in return for the transfer of a portfolio of products in Europe of similar nature and economic value. Since theproducts acquired from Syngenta are of the same nature, and with the same net economic value as those divested, theDivestment and Transfer transactions had no net impact on the underlying economic performance of the Company. Theseadditional amortization charges will continue until 2032 but at a reducing rate, yet will still be at a meaningful level until2028; (ii) Charges related mainly to the non-cash amortization of intangible assets created as part of the Purchase Price

Allocation (PPA) on acquisitions, with no impact on the ongoing performance of the companies acquired, as well as otherM&A-related costs; (iii) Non-cash, share-based compensation (incentive plans).Excluding the impact of the abovementioned non-operational charges, the operating expenses in the first quarter of 2023decreased, among others, mainly due to the positive impact of exchange rates.

(4) Financial Expenses

“Financial Expenses” alone mainly reflect interest payments on corporate bonds and bank loans as well as foreignexchange gains/losses on the bonds and other monetary assets and liabilities before the Company carries out any hedging.The impact of Financial Expenses, net (before hedging) is RMB 207 million ($30 million) for Q1 2023, compared withFinancial Income, net of RMB 258 million ($41 million) for the corresponding periods in 2022.Given the global nature of its operational activities and the composition of its assets and liabilities, the Company, in theordinary course of its business, uses foreign currency derivatives (forwards and options) to hedge the cash flow risksassociated with existing monetary assets and liabilities that may be affected by exchange rate fluctuations. The impact ofthe hedging transactions which is recorded in Gains/Losses from Changes in Fair Value is a net loss of RMB 352 million($51 million) in Q1 2023, compared with RMB 597 million ($94 million) in the corresponding period in 2022.The aggregate of Financial Expenses and Gains/Losses from Changes in Fair Value (hereinafter as “Total Net FinancialExpenses”), which more comprehensively reflects the financial expenses of the Company in supporting its main businessand protecting its monetary assets/liabilities, amounts to RMB 559 million ($82 million) in Q1 2023, compared with RMB339 million ($53 million) in the corresponding period in 2022. The higher financial expenses were mainly driven by (i) higherbank interest expenses due an increase in short-term loans as well as the sharp increase in interest rates, (ii) higherhedging costs on exchange rates mainly due to volatility in the ILS/Dollar exchange rate and (iii) the net effect of the highIsraeli CPI on the ILS-denominated, CPI-linked bonds.

(5) Income Tax Expenses

The tax income in the first quarter of 2023 was mainly due to the non-cash impact of the stronger BRL on the value of non-monetary tax assets, the method of calculation of tax assets related to unrealized profits and low profit before tax.The low effective tax rate in first quarter of 2022 was mainly due to the generation of profits by subsidiaries whose tax ratesare lower relative to the Company’s aggregate effective tax rate, as well as to the method of calculation of tax assetsrelated to unrealized profits and a tax income from the strengthening of the BRL.
