BEIJING, CHINA and TEL AVIV, ISRAEL, March 20, 2023 – ADAMA Ltd. (the “Company”) (SZSE 000553), today reported its financial results for the fourth quarter and twelve-month period ended December 31, 2022.
Ignacio Dominguez, President and CEO of ADAMA, said, "As we enter the year of 2023, we reflect on the remarkable year that was 2022. This was a year in which the crop protection market experienced exceptional growth, both in volumes, and especially in prices largely aimed to offset increases in costs. I am happy to say that ADAMA grew with the market reaching record sales and EBITDA in 2022.
"As 2022 proceeded, crop commodity prices came down from their peak, maintaining historically elevated levels. This has continued into 2023, while fertilizer and energy prices declined at a slower
pace, leading to lower but still historically high farmer profitability. With high inventories in the market,
we anticipate a gradual return to normalization in the crop protection market towards the second half
of 2023.
"We believe that in 2023 farmers will continue to invest in crop protection products that bring them
incremental value. In 2022 ADAMA introduced many differentiated products to the market, optimizing its offering to farmers around the globe while maintaining simplicity in doing business, and intends to
continue to do so in 2023."

The general crop protection market environment
Crop prices reached record levels in May 2022, driven by tight stocks, adverse weather conditions and the Ukraine-Russia conflict which disrupted the supply of commodities. Prices have since declined
3
but are expected to remain above pre-pandemic levels . The high crop prices drove strong farmer income, despite the higher cost environment (fertilizer, chemicals, labor, energy) faced by farmers. As
a result, crop protection demand stayed strong in 2022 and farmers were able to absorb crop protection price increases. Going into 2023, crop protection channel inventories in some regions are
above average, which may dampen demand in the near future.
The cost environment has improved throughout the second half of 2022, as raw material and active ingredient prices in China continued to decline, logistic prices normalized and energy prices eased.
However, costs are still higher than pre-pandemic levels, with some areas still experiencing especially
high costs, like European co-formulants and inland transportation. Sustainability
? Promoting sustainability in agriculture by providing a solution that enables farmers to switch to
a crop that requires less water:
Double Team? Sorghum Cropping Solution provide farmers with FirstAct?, a post-emergent grass weed control and a herbicide-tolerant DT? trait hybrid seed, providing them the tools to switch to Sorghum, a drought tolerant crop that requires less water, enabling regenerative farming practices.
The Double Team? Sorghum Cropping Solution is a joint effort between ADAMA US and S&W Seed Co.
? Sustainability in Products:
ADAMA's high-load formulations in Australia have led to substantial savings in energy/water consumption, usage of co-formulants, amount of packaging used, storage and accompanying materials as well as transportation.
ADAMA's new proprietary high-load formulation technology platform Sesgama?, has been granted a patent.
? Sustainability in manufacturing:
Carbon footprint reduction of a high-margin leading insecticide by lowering energy usage and reducing CO2 emissions, while increasing production output and capacity. Portfolio Development Update
Formulation Mastery progress:

Revenues in the fourth quarter declined by approximately 2% (+9% in RMB terms; +1% in CER terms) to $1,312 million, reflecting an increase of 6% in prices and a decrease of 6% in volumes mainly due
to advancement of sales in Brazil from the fourth quarter in 2022 to the third quarter, a decline in raw
material, fine chemicals and intermediates sales in China and the depreciation of the Euro in comparison to the US Dollar. Despite the shift of sales in Brazil from the fourth quarter to the third
quarter, the Company's sales grew in constant exchange rates across most regions. In the full year 2022, sales reached a record-high of $5,570 million, an increase of 16% (+20% in RMB
terms; +19% in CER terms), driven by a 16% increase in prices and a 4% growth in volume. The increase in sales in the full year period reflected the strong demand in the market for crop protection
products, led by sales in Brazil and China.

* As of 2023, the India, Middle East & Africa (IMA) region has been reorganized such that the countries
formerly included in this region will now be included in the Europe region (renamed EAME) or in the
Asia Pacific region. Proforma regional sales will be provided in the quarterly 2023 financial results
press releases.
Europe: Excluding Ukraine based sales, the sales in Europe grew by a double-digit percentage in the fourth quarter and full year period. This growth was achieved by gaining market share over the year in some key countries such as France, Italy, Romania and Greece and was also ?
supported by the introduction of the product Soratel , which includes ADAMA’s proprietary Asorbital formulation technology. The growth was achieved despite drought mainly in the south of Europe, supply challenges and high channel inventories in some countries. North America: In the US Ag market, sales increased in the full year period despite adverse weather conditions mainly in the second half of the year, impacting the California Fruit & Vegetable market and the Cotton market across Texas and the southwest regions, both important markets for the Company.
Very strong growth in sales achieved in Canada in the full year period and fourth quarter in all categories: herbicides, fungicides and insecticides. The Company's new in-house production at Huifeng of cereal herbicides supported sales against the backdrop of supply shortages in the market, while broadening of the fungicide portfolio and increased insect pressure drove fungicide and insecticide sales, respectively.
The Consumer & Professional business grew nicely over the full year period following robust inflationary 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. Latin America: In the full year period the Company achieved very strong growth in sales in Brazil, driven by prices, volume and new innovative formulation product launches, such as fungicide ? ?
ARMERO and herbicide ARADDO . Slowdown in sales in Brazil in the fourth quarter was due to advancement of sales from the fourth quarter in 2022 to the third quarter. In other LATAM countries higher sales were achieved in the full year period despite adverse weather conditions. In the fourth quarter the sales remained stable. During 2022 the Company continued with the rollout of biological products in this region, which is a key market for Fruit &
Vegetable crops for export.
Asia-Pacific (APAC): During the full year period of 2022 the Company’s significant growth in Asia Pacific was led by the strong sales of raw material, intermediates and fine chemicals in China.
In the fourth quarter, a decline was recorded in such sales following the softening of demand in the Chinese market and an overall decline in market prices. The sales in China of ADAMA's branded portfolio also continued to grow nicely during the full year period despite the strong competition in the market, and also included the contribution of a company acquired in 2021. In the wider APAC region growth in sales in the full year period was supported by the positive rd
impact of a rare 3 consecutive year of La Ni?a and despite strong competition from China. In the fourth quarter, sales were negatively impacted by excessive rain and flooding in some key areas of the region. The slowdown in sales in the fourth quarter in the Pacific region was also due to advancement of sales from the fourth quarter in 2022 to the third quarter. India, Middle East & Africa: Sales grew moderately in USD terms and nicely in constant exchange rates in 2022 and in the fourth quarter. In the full year period the growth was led by Middle Eastern countries, as 2021 was a very strong year in India. In the fourth quarter the sales in India also grew nicely due to positive weather conditions. Gross Profit reported in the fourth quarter declined by 11% to $304 million (gross margin of 23.2%)
compared to $343 million (gross margin of 25.6%) in the same quarter last year and increased by 19%
to $1,403 million (gross margin of 25.1%) in the full year of 2022 compared to $1,183 million (gross
margin of 24.6%) in 2021.
Adjustments to reported results: The adjusted gross profit includes all idleness costs, inventory impairment and taxes and surcharge and excludes certain transportation costs (classified under operating expenses).
Additionally, in the fourth quarter and full year of 2021 certain extraordinary charges related largely to a temporary disruption of the production of certain products were adjusted. These charges have significantly declined since the first quarter of 2022, as the relocation and upgrade of the manufacturing Jingzhou site in China has been completed and is now at a high level of operation.
Excluding the impact of the abovementioned extraordinary items, adjusted gross profit in the fourth
quarter was down 17% to $341 million (gross margin of 26.0%) compared to $412 million (gross margin of 30.8%) in the same quarter last year and was up 11% to $1,565 million (gross margin of 28.1%) in the full year of 2022 compared to $1,412 million (gross margin of 29.3%) in 2021. The decline in gross profit in the fourth quarter was due to the decline in sales, as described above,
exchange rates and higher procurement, production and logistics costs, which were impacted amongst other factors by higher inflation. Likewise, during the quarter, the Company recorded certain
non-recurring expenses attributed to implementation of sustainable manufacturing practices. For the full year period, the higher gross profit was mainly driven by the markedly higher prices, complemented by volume growth, which offset the higher logistic, procurement and production costs, as well as the negative impact of exchange rates.
Operating expenses reported in the fourth quarter were $278 million (21.2% of sales) and $1,013 million (18.2% of sales) in the full year of 2022, compared to $233 million (17.4% of sales) and $892
million (18.5% of sales) in the corresponding periods last year, respectively. Adjustments to reported results: please refer to the explanation regarding adjustments to the gross profit in respect to certain transportation costs, idleness, taxes and surcharges and inventory impairment.
Additionally, the Company recorded certain non-operational charges within its reported operating expenses amounting to $26 million in Q4 2022 in comparison to $1 million in Q4 2021 and $57 million in the full year of 2022 in comparison to $33 million in 2021. These charges include mainly (i) non-cash amortization charges in respect of Transfer Assets received from Syngenta related to the 2017 ChemChina-Syngenta acquisition, (ii) charges related 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, (iii) provision for asset impairment in one of its subsidiaries and (iv) incentive plans - share-based compensation. For further details on these non-operational charges, please see the appendix to this release.
Excluding the impact of the abovementioned non-operational charges, adjusted operating expenses in the fourth quarter and full year of 2022 were $286 million (21.8% of sales) and $1,107 million (19.9%
of sales), compared to $269 million (20.1% of sales) and $986 million (20.5% of sales) in the corresponding periods last year, respectively.
The higher operating expenses in the fourth quarter reflected inflationary pressures. In the full year of
2022, the higher operating expenses also reflected the strong growth of the business, which included
higher transportation and logistics costs, an increase in expenses attributed to company success-based employee compensation, the contribution of a company acquired in 2021, a doubtful debt provision for trade receivables in Ukraine moderated by the positive impact of exchange rates. Operating income reported in the fourth quarter amounted to $26 million (2.0% of sales) compared to $110 million (8.2% of sales) in the same quarter last year and was up 34% to $389 million (7.0% of
sales) in the full year of 2022 compared to $291 million (6.0% of sales) last year. Excluding the impact of the abovementioned non-operational items, adjusted operating income in the fourth quarter amounted to $55 million (4.2% of sales) compared to $143 million (10.7% of sales)
in the same quarter last year and was up 8% to $458 million (8.2% of sales) in the full year of 2022
compared to $425 million (8.8% of sales) in 2021.
EBITDA reported in the fourth quarter amounted to $127 million (9.6% of sales) compared to $188 million (14.1% of sales) in the same quarter last year and was up 23% to $731 million (13.1% of sales)
in the full year of 2022 compared to $593 million (12.3% of sales) last year. Excluding the impact of the abovementioned non-operational items, adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter amounted to $129 million (9.8% of sales) compared to $207 million (15.5% of sales) in the same quarter last year and was up 10% to $740 million (13.3% of sales) in the full year of 2022 compared to $671 million (13.9% of sales) in 2021.
Financial expenses reported amounted to $47 million in the fourth quarter and $271 million in the full
year of 2022, compared to $63 million and $207 million in the corresponding periods last year, respectively.
Adjustments to reported results: The adjusted financial expenses have been adjusted for a non-recurring, non-cash, income due to revaluation of put options attributed to minority stakes.
Adjusted financial expenses were $94 million in the fourth quarter and $314 million in the full year
of 2022, compared to $62 million and $206 million in the corresponding periods last year, respectively.
The higher financial expenses were mainly driven by (i) the net effect of the high Israeli CPI on the
ILS-denominated, CPI-linked bonds and (ii) higher hedging costs on exchange rates mainly due to volatility in the ILS/Dollar exchange rate. In the full year period, these expenses also included put
options attributed to minority stakes acquired in 2021.
Adjusted Taxes on income in the fourth quarter were $3 million and $26 million in the full year of 2022, compared to $27 million and $79 million in the corresponding periods last year, respectively.
In the fourth quarter of 2022 the taxes were significantly lower due to recording a loss before tax in
comparison to a profit before tax in the fourth quarter of 2021 and due to the impact of the stronger
BRL that led to lower tax expenses; impacts which were moderated by a one-time tax expense electing
to apply for temporary relief available in 2022 and reducing tax exposure in Israel going forward.
In the full year of 2022, the company also recognized a higher deferred tax asset, related to inter-
group sales, that led to a decline in the tax on income.
Net income attributable to the shareholders of the Company, in the fourth quarter the Company reported a net loss of $22 million and in the full year of 2022 a net income of $96 million (1.7% of
sales), compared to a net income of $25 million (1.9% of sales) and a net income of $25 million (0.5%
of sales) in the corresponding periods last year, respectively. Excluding the impact of the abovementioned extraordinary and non-operational charges, adjusted net income (loss) in the fourth quarter was a loss of $42 million and an income of $118 million (2.1%
of sales) in the full year of 2022, compared to an income of $54 million (4.0% of sales) and $139 million (2.9% of sales) in the corresponding periods last year, respectively. Trade working capital as of December 31, 2022, was $2,634 million compared to $2,210 million at the same point last year. The increase in working capital was due to an increase in the value and levels of inventory held by the Company to support the sales in light of supply shortages, logistic
challenges and inventory costs increases. In the fourth quarter the procurement of inventory declined
in comparison to the third quarter of 2022. The increase in inventory levels was moderated by higher
trade payables. Trade receivables increased slightly despite the strong growth in sales, reflecting good
collections across the board.
Cash Flow: Operating cash flow of $352 million was generated in the fourth quarter and $106 million
generated in the full year of 2022, compared to $372 million and $710 million generated in the corresponding periods last year, respectively. The lower cash flow generated in the full year of 2022
was primarily due to higher payments to suppliers to support the procurement of inventory. Net cash used in investing activities was $96 million in the fourth quarter and $396 million in the full
year of 2022, compared to $136 million and $525 million in the corresponding periods last year, respectively. The cash used in investing activities in the fourth quarter of 2022 largely related to
investments new production facilities in ADAMA Anpon and investments in intangible assets relating to ADAMA's global registrations. In the full year of 2022, cash was also used for investing in "Core
Leap" manufacturing capabilities in Israel and Brazil (Multi-Purpose Production Site). In the full year of 2021, cash was also used for the completion of the payment and acquisition of Huifeng’s domestic commercial crop protection business and manufacturing site, as well as for the relocation and upgrade of the manufacturing Sanonda Jingzhou site, both completed towards the end of the second quarter of 2021.
Free cash flow of $204 million was generated in the fourth quarter and $417 million consumed in full
year of 2022 compared to $190 million generated and $75 million generated in the corresponding periods last year, respectively, reflecting the aforementioned operating and investing cash flow dynamics.

its subsidiaries (the “Company”), including Adama Agricultural Solutions Ltd. (“Solutions”) and its subsidiaries.

or revised subsequently by the MoF (collectively referred to as “ASBE”). Note that in the reported financial
statements, as a result of recent changes in the ASBE guidelines (IAS 37), certain items as of Q4 2021
(specifically certain transportation costs and certain idleness charges) have been reclassified from Operating
Expenses to COGS. See the notes to the financial statements for more details in this regard. The abridged consolidated financial statements contained in this release are presented in both Chinese
Renminbi (RMB), as the Company’s shares are traded on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, as well as in United
States dollars ($) as this is the major currency in which the Company’s business is conducted. For the purposes
of this release, a customary convenience translation has been used for the translation from RMB to US dollars,
with Income Statement and Cash Flow items being translated using the quarterly average exchange rate, and
Balance Sheet items being translated using the exchange rate at the end of the period. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimated.

Income Statement Adjustments






Notes:
1. Amortization of Legacy PPA of 2011 acquisition of Solutions (non-cash): Under ASBE, since the first combined reporting for Q3 2017, the
Company has inherited the historical “legacy” amortization charge that ChemChina previously was incurring in respect of its acquisition of
Solutions in 2011. This amortization is done in a linear manner on a quarterly basis, most of which will have been completed by the end of 2020.
2. Amortization of Transfer assets received and written-up due to 2017 ChemChina-Syngenta transaction (non-cash): The proceeds from
the Divestment of crop protection products in connection with the approval by the EU Commission of the acquisition of Syngenta by ChemChina,
net of taxes and transaction expenses, were paid to Syngenta in return for the transfer of a portfolio of products in Europe of similar nature and
economic value. Since the products acquired from Syngenta are of the same nature and with the same net economic value as those divested,
and since in 2018 the Company adjusted for the one-time gain that it made on the divested products, the additional amortization charge incurred
due to the written-up value of the acquired assets is also adjusted to present a consistent view of Divestment and Transfer transactions, which
had no net impact on the underlying economic performance of the Company. These additional amortization charges will continue until 2032 but
at a reducing rate, yet will still be at a meaningful level until 2028. 3. Upgrade & manufacturing facilities relocation-related costs: These charges all relate to the multi-year Upgrade & Relocation program in
China. As part of this program, production assets located in the old production sites in Jingzhou and Huai’An were relocated to new sites in 2020,
2021 and in the coming years. Since some of the older production assets may not be able to be relocated, some of these assets which are no
longer operational are being written off (or impaired), while for others, their economic life has been shortened and therefore will be depreciated
over a shorter period. Since these are older assets that were built many years ago and will be replaced by newer production facilities at the new
sites, and since the ongoing operations of the business will not be impacted thereby, the Company adjusts for the impact of all charges related
to the China Upgrade & Relocated program, which include mainly: (i) excess procurement costs incurred as the Company continued to fulfill
demand for its products, in order to protect its market position, through replacement sourcing at significantly higher costs from third-party suppliers
(ii) elevated idleness charges largely related to suspensions at the facilities being relocated These charges have significantly declined since the
first quarter of 2022, as the relocation and upgrade of the manufacturing Jingzhou site in China has been completed and is now at a high level
of operation.
4. Incentive plans: ADAMA granted certain of its employees, a long-term incentive (LTI) in the form of 'phantom' awards linked to the Company’s
share price. As such, the Company records an expense, or recognizes income, depending on the fluctuation in the Company’s share price,
regardless of award exercises. To neutralize the impact of such share price movements on the measurement of the Company’s performance

5. Amortization of acquisition-related PPA (non-cash) and other acquisition-related costs: 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 other M&A-related costs.
6. ASBE classification COGS & OPEX impact – according to the ASBE guidelines, certain expenses, which the company views as COGS, are
classified under OPEX. Additionally, as a result of recent changes in the ASBE guidelines [IAS 37], certain items as of Q4 2021 (specifically
certain transportation costs and certain idleness charges) have been reclassified from Operating Expenses to COGS.
8. Provisions in tax expenses related to prior years’ activities - Provisions in respect of tax expenses related to activities of prior years.
9. Asset impairment in subsidiary - non-cash, non-recurring provision for asset impairment and income due to revaluation of put options attributed
to minority stake in a subsidiary.
