Considerations related to Excess Profit | The operating income, as reported in the latest "Surplus Profit Report" for taxation of profits from natural resources for 2019 (with required adjustments as defined in the law), attributed to Bromine operation and Potash operation in the Dead Sea, was about $84 million and about $243 million (reflecting an average realized potash prices of about $286 per-tonne), respectively. At such level of operating income, a value of the property, plant and equipment, of above $0.7 billion for the Bromine mineral and above $2.3 billion for the Potash mineral (approximately an aggregate of $3 billion), would result in no natural resources tax liability. The global average realized potash price, in 2020, was about $230 per-tonne. | The operating income, as reported in the latest "Surplus Profit Report" for taxation of profits from natural resources for 2019 (with required adjustments as defined in the law), attributed to Bromine operation and Potash operation in the Dead Sea, was about $84 million and about $243 million (reflecting an average realized potash prices of about $286 per-tonne), respectively.
