[1] The Company conducted an evaluation of the expected remaining useful life of Property, Plant and Equipment at its facilities in Israel. This evaluation was based on the Company's accumulated experience, ongoing maintenance practices and operational history of these facilities. The findings of this assessment, which was concluded in the third quarter, revealed that, due to the increasing adoption of new technologies and the implementation of operational excellence processes, the expected lifespan of certain Property, Plant, and Equipment exceeded their previously estimated useful life. As a result, the estimated useful life of the said assets was extended by 2‑5 years, effective from January 2023. The impact of this adjustment in 2023, is a reduction in depreciation expenses, of which $16 million was reflected in operating results, and $3 million was recorded as part of changes in inventory value.
[2] The additions are presented net of items for which construction has been completed and accordingly were reclassified to other categories in the “property, plant and equipment” section.
[3] The total additions were recorded against lease liabilities (IFRS 16).
