Partner Communications Company Ltd. (“Partner” or
the “Company”) (NASDAQ and TASE: PTNR), a leading Israeli
communications provider, announced today its results for the
quarter ended March 31, 2019.
Commenting on the results for the first quarter of 2019, Mr.
Isaac Benbenisti, CEO of Partner noted:
“In a saturated communications market, Partner succeeded
in starting the year 2019 with positive momentum. Partner’s fiber
optics infrastructure already reaches more than 400 thousand
households in more than half of Israel’s cities across the country,
and Partner TV continues to be the fastest growing television
service in Israel with over 152 thousand subscribers.
In the cellular segment, we continued to maintain a low rate of
churn by focusing on existing customers. This strategy is also
reflected in the moderate decrease in ARPU we recorded compared to
the previous quarter and the corresponding quarter in 2018.
In recent months, we have focused on the strategy of providing
value to Partner's customers in all areas of the Group's business:
cellular, internet, television and the business division. This
strategy is expected to bring results both on the revenue side and
in increasing customer loyalty with respect to all lines of
products and services.
As part of this strategy, we are establishing a dedicated
customer service division that will handle all of our private
customers’ needs, across cellular and fixed line segments. We
believe that this will further strengthen Partner’s
industry-leading level of service, and differentiate us from all
other players in the communications market.
Alongside continued growth in television and accelerated
deployment of the fiber optics infrastructure, we succeeded in
maintaining a net debt level of under NIS 1 billion. Partner's
financial strength offers us considerable flexibility for making
strategic investments and for expanding activity in new and
existing business areas.”
Mr. Tamir Amar, Partner's Chief Financial Officer, commented
on the results:
“Partner closed another quarter characterized by significant
competition in its operating segments, achieving relative stability
in service revenues compared to the previous quarter, while
continuing to grow its fixed line segment activity, both in the
number of subscribers and in revenues. In the cellular segment,
where competition continues to be high, we continued to maintain a
relatively low churn rate, which was unchanged compared to the
previous quarter and declined compared to the corresponding quarter
last year, and relatively low ARPU erosion by, among other things,
strategically focusing on customers that offer value for the
Company.
At the beginning of January 2019, an amendment to the network
sharing agreement between the Company and HOT Mobile was signed, as
a result of which, from the beginning of this year, the accounting
treatment for the jointly owned partnership with HOT mobile, PHI,
is as a joint operation instead of through the equity method.
Therefore, the Company's relative share (50%) in PHI's assets and
liabilities was added to the Company's balance sheet. The change
did not materially affect the Company's statement of income.
Starting with the first quarter of 2019, the Company adopted the
new accounting standard IFRS 16 – Leases, as required under IFRS.
IFRS 16 requires the recognition of lease liability for lease
payments and a right-of-use asset, with respect to contracts that
were previously accounted for as operating leases. In the first
quarter of 2019, the impact of adopting IFRS 16 was an increase in
Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter by NIS 39 million.
We concluded the quarter with Adjusted Free Cash Flow (before
interest payments) of negative NIS 11 million. Cash flows from
operating activities totaled NIS 213 million. Lease payments,
presented in cash flows from financing activities, totaled NIS 39
million. CAPEX payments totaled NIS 185 million, reflecting the
Company’s strategy to continue its leadership in telecommunications
technologies with continued significant investment in the Company's
fiber optics infrastructure. This investment is only made possible
by Partner's strong balance sheet.
In addition, in recent months we have continued our preparations
for our future debt recycling with the private placement of
untradeable option warrants exercisable for the Company's Series G
debentures, thereby arranging a significant portion of the
Company's expected funding requirements for the years through
2021.”

Financial Review
In Q1 2019, total revenues were NIS 794 million (US$ 219
million), a decrease of 4% from NIS 826 million in Q1
2018.
Service revenues in Q1 2019 totaled NIS 624 million (US$
172 million), a decrease of NIS 1 million from NIS 625 million in
Q1 2018.
Service revenues for the cellular segment in Q1 2019
totaled NIS 441 million (US$ 121 million), a decrease of 5% from
NIS 466 million in Q1 2018. The decrease was mainly the result of
the continued price erosion of cellular services (both Post-Paid
and Pre-Paid) due to the continued competitive market
conditions.
Service revenues for the fixed-line segment in Q1 2019
totaled NIS 224 million (US$ 62 million), an increase of 11% from
NIS 202 million in Q1 2018. The increase reflected revenues from TV
services and internet services, which were partially offset
principally by the decline in revenues from international calling
services.
Equipment revenues in Q1 2019 totaled NIS 170 million
(US$ 47 million), a decrease of 15% from NIS 201 million in Q1
2018, mainly reflecting a lower volume of equipment sales and a
change in product mix.
Gross profit from equipment sales in Q1 2019 was
NIS 39 million (US$ 11 million), compared with NIS 43 million in Q1
2018, a decrease of 9%, mainly reflecting the decline in sales
volumes, partially offset by higher profit margins from sales due
to a change in the product mix.
Total operating expenses (‘OPEX’) totaled NIS 472 million
(US$ 130 million) in Q1 2019, a decrease of 5% or NIS 26 million
from Q1 2018. The decrease mainly reflected the effect of the
implementation of IFRS 16 which totaled NIS 39 million, a decrease
in credit losses, and a decrease in costs related to international
calls. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in
expenses relating to the growth in TV and internet services.
Including depreciation and amortization expenses and other expenses
(mainly amortization of employee share based compensation), OPEX in
Q1 2019 increased by 3% compared with Q1 2018.
Operating profit for Q1 2019 was NIS 9 million (US$ 2
million), a decrease of 72% compared with operating profit of NIS
32 million in Q1 2018. Excluding the adoption of IFRS 16, operating
profit in Q1 2019 would have been NIS 4 million. See Adjusted
EBITDA analysis for each segment below.
Adjusted EBITDA in Q1 2019 totaled NIS 197 million (US$
54 million), an increase of 11% from NIS 177 million in Q1
2018. The impact of the adoption of IFRS 16 on Adjusted EBITDA in
Q1 2019 was an increase of NIS 39 million and, therefore, excluding
the impact of IFRS 16, Adjusted EBITDA would have been NIS 158
million. As a percentage of total revenues, Adjusted EBITDA in Q1
2019 was 25% compared with 21% in Q1 2018.
Adjusted EBITDA for the cellular segment was NIS 150
million (US$ 41 million) in Q1 2019, an increase of 12% from NIS
134 million in Q1 2018, mainly reflecting the impact of the
adoption of IFRS 16 which increased cellular segment Adjusted
EBITDA by NIS 34 million, and a decrease in cellular operating
expenses (OPEX), which were partially offset by decreases in
service revenues and in gross profit from cellular equipment sales.
As a percentage of total cellular segment revenues, Adjusted EBITDA
for the cellular segment in Q1 2019 was 26% compared with 21% in Q1
2018.
Adjusted EBITDA for the fixed-line segment was NIS 47
million (US$ 13 million) in Q1 2019, an increase of 9% from NIS 43
million in Q1 2018, reflecting the increases in fixed-line service
revenues and in gross profit from equipment sales, partially offset
by the increase in OPEX. The impact of the adoption of IFRS 16 in
Q1 2019 on the Adjusted EBITDA for the fixed-line segment was an
increase of NIS 5 million. As a percentage of total fixed-line
segment revenues, Adjusted EBITDA for the fixed-line segment in Q1
2019 was 19%, unchanged from Q1 2018.
Finance costs, net in Q1 2019 were NIS 14 million (US$ 4
million), a decrease of 22% compared with NIS 18 million in Q1
2018. The decrease largely reflected the early loan repayment fee
recorded in Q1 2018, partially offset by the impact of the adoption
of IFRS 16 in Q1 2019, which resulted in an increase of NIS 5
million in finance costs.
Income tax expenses for Q1 2019 were an income of NIS 7
million (US$ 2 million), compared with expenses of NIS 5 million in
Q1 2018, largely reflecting the loss before tax of NIS 5 million in
Q1 2019 compared with profit before tax of NIS 14 million in Q1
2018.
Profit in Q1 2019 was NIS 2 million (US$ 1 million),
compared with a profit of NIS 9 million in Q1 2018, a decrease of
78%. The impact of the adoption of IFRS 16 in Q1 2019 on profit was
an immaterial decrease of NIS 1 million.
Based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding
during Q1 2019, basic earnings per share or ADS, was NIS
0.01 (US$ 0.003), compared with basic earnings per share of NIS
0.05 in Q1 2018.
Cellular Segment Operational
Review
At the end of Q1 2019, the Company's cellular subscriber
base (including mobile data, 012 Mobile subscribers and M2M
subscriptions) was approximately 2.62 million, including
approximately 2.34 million Post-Paid subscribers or 89% of the
base, and approximately 280 thousand Pre-Paid subscribers, or 11%
of the subscriber base.
During the first quarter of 2019, the cellular subscriber base
decreased by approximately 26 thousand. The Pre-Paid subscriber
base decreased by approximately 5 thousand, and the Post-Paid
subscriber base decreased by approximately 21 thousand.
The quarterly churn rate for cellular subscribers in Q1
2019 was 8.5%, compared with 8.9% in Q1 2018.
Total cellular market share (based on the number of
subscribers) at the end of Q1 2019 was estimated to be
approximately 25%, unchanged from Q1 2018.
The monthly Average Revenue per User (“ARPU”) for
cellular subscribers in Q1 2019 was NIS 56 (US$ 15), a decrease of
3% from NIS 58 in Q1 2018. The decrease mainly reflected the
continued price erosion in key cellular services due to the
competition in the cellular market.
Funding and Investing
Review
In Q1 2019, Adjusted Free Cash Flow (including lease
payments) totaled negative NIS 11 million (US$ -3 million), a
decrease in Adjusted Free Cash Flow of NIS 32 from positive NIS 21
million in Q1 2018.
Cash generated from operating activities increased by 36%
from NIS 157 million in Q1 2018 to NIS 213 million (US$ 59 million)
in Q1 2019, mainly as a result of the adoption in Q1 2019 of IFRS
16, under which lease payments are recorded in cash flows from
financing activities instead of in cash flows from operating
activities, as well as the impact of the change in the accounting
treatment of PHI, following the change in PHI’s governance (see
below), where payments to PHI for Right of Use of PHI's assets
which previously were recorded as cash flows from operating
activities under "Increase in deferred expenses - right of use"
are, as from Q1 2019, recorded as cash flows from investing
activities under “Acquisition of property and equipment” and
"Acquisition of intangible and other assets".
Lease payments, recorded in cash flows from financing
activities under IFRS 16, totaled NIS 39 million in Q1 2019.
Cash capital expenditures (‘CAPEX payments’), as
represented by cash flows used for the acquisition of property and
equipment and intangible assets, were NIS 185 million (US$ 51
million) in Q1 2019, an increase of 34% from NIS 138 million in Q1
2018, mainly reflecting the impact of the change in the accounting
treatment of PHI, as described above, as well as increased
investments in the fiber optics infrastructure.
The level of Net Debt at the end of Q1 2019 amounted to
NIS 977 million (US$ 269 million), compared with NIS 919 million at
the end of Q1 2018, an increase of NIS 58 million.
Change in PHI's governance from the
beginning of 2019
At the beginning of January 2019, an amendment to the network
sharing agreement between the Company and HOT Mobile was signed, as
a result of which, control over the partnership, PHI, is now borne
50-50 by the Company and HOT Mobile, and each nominates an equal
number of directors (three directors). Since, thereafter, decisions
about the Relevant Activities of PHI require the unanimous consent
of both the Company and HOT Mobile, PHI is considered a joint
arrangement controlled by the Company and HOT Mobile (joint
operation). Therefore, from the beginning of this year, PHI is
accounted for as a joint operation by the Company, and the Company
recognizes its share (50%) in the assets, liabilities, and expenses
of PHI, instead of using the equity method for its PHI
interest.
This change was mainly reflected in the Company's statement of
financial position at the beginning of 2019, with increases in
non-current right-of-use in leased assets of NIS 355 million, in
current maturities of lease liabilities of NIS 65 million, and in
non-current lease liabilities of NIS 290 million, and a recognition
of property and equipment and intangible assets of NIS 142 million,
instead of deferred expenses - right of use in PHI's assets. The
change was also reflected in cash flows, where payments to PHI for
Right of Use of PHI's assets which previously were recorded as cash
flows from operating activities under "Increase in deferred
expenses - right of use" are now recorded as cash flows from
investing activities under “Acquisition of property and equipment”
and "Acquisition of intangible and other assets". The change did
not materially affect the Company's statement of income.
For additional details and implications, see note 9 to our
consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31,
2018 and Item 5A.1d in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for
the year ended December 31, 2018, filed with the SEC on March 27,
2019.
IFRS 16
The new leases standard, IFRS 16, came into effect on January 1,
2019. The standard primarily affects the accounting for the Group’s
operating leases. The Company applied the simplified transition
approach and did not restate comparative amounts. As at January 1,
2019, the Company recognized in the statement of financial position
(including Partner’s share in PHI's lease contracts) a Lease -
right of use asset of NIS 656 million and a lease liability of NIS
683 million (current and non-current). The accumulated retained
earnings decreased by NIS 21 million and the deferred income tax
asset has changed in an immaterial amount.
In the first quarter of 2019, the impact of adopting IFRS 16 on
the consolidated statement of income amounted to a decrease of NIS
39 million in operating expenses (OPEX), an increase of NIS 35
million in depreciation and amortization expenses and an increase
of NIS 5 million in finance costs, net, which resulted in an
immaterial increase in operating profit and an immaterial decrease
in profit for the quarter. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter
increased by NIS 39 million, with Adjusted EBITDA for the cellular
segment increasing by NIS 34 million and Adjusted EBITDA for the
fixed-line segment increasing by NIS 5 million.
Lease payments made in the first quarter of 2019 in an amount of
NIS 39 million were recorded in the statement of cash flows under
the cash flows from financing activities instead of under cash
flows from operating activities.

Adjusted EBITDA as reviewed by the CODM represents Earnings Before
Interest (finance costs, net), Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization
(including amortization of intangible assets, deferred
expenses-right of use and impairment charges) and Other expenses
(mainly amortization of share based compensation). Adjusted EBITDA
is not a financial measure under IFRS and may not be comparable to
other similarly titled measures for other companies. Adjusted
EBITDA may not be indicative of the Group's historic operating
results nor is it meant to be predictive of potential future
results. The usage of the term "Adjusted EBITDA" is to highlight
the fact that the Amortization includes amortization of deferred
expenses – right of use and amortization of employee share based
compensation and impairment charges.(3) Operating expenses include
selling and marketing expenses, general and administrative
expenses.

(1) In December 2018, the Company issued an additional Series F
Notes in a principal amount of NIS 150 million. In December 2017
and January 2018, the Company entered into agreements with Israeli
institutional investors to issue in December 2019, in the framework
of a private placement, additional Series F notes, in an aggregate
principal amount of NIS 227 million. S&P Maalot has rated the
additional deferred issuances with an 'ilA+' rating. For additional
details see the Company's press releases dated September 13 and 17,
2017, December 27, 2017 and January 9, 2018.(2) In January 2019,
the Company issued Series G Notes in a principal amount of NIS 225
million.In April 2019, the Company issued in a private placement 2
series of untradeable option warrants that are exercisable for the
Company's Series G debentures. The exercise period of the first
series is between July 1, 2019 and May 31, 2020 and of the second
series is between July 1, 2020 and May 31, 2021. The Series G
debentures that will be allotted upon the exercise of an option
warrant will be identical in all their rights to the Company's
Series G debentures immediately upon their allotment, and will be
entitled to any payment of interest or other benefit, the effective
date of which is due after the allotment date. The debentures that
will be allotted as a result of the exercise of option warrants
will be registered on the TASE. The total amount received by the
Company on the allotment date of the option warrants is NIS 37
million. The total consideration expected to the Company in respect
of the allotment of the option warrants and in respect of their
full exercise (and assuming that there will be no change to the
exercise price) is approximately NIS 323.7 million. For additional
details see the Company's press release dated April 17, 2019.(3)
Regarding Series F and G Notes, the Company is required to comply
with a financial covenant that the ratio of Net Debt to Adjusted
EBITDA shall not exceed 5. Compliance will be examined and reported
on a quarterly basis. For the definitions of Net Debt and Adjusted
EBITDA see 'Use of non-GAAP measures' section above. For the
purpose of the covenant, Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as the sum
total for the last 12 month period, excluding adjustable one-time
items. As of March 31, 2019, the ratio of Net Debt to Adjusted
EBITDA was 1.3. Additional stipulations regarding Series F and G
Notes mainly include: shareholders' equity shall not decrease below
NIS 400 million and NIS 600 million, respectively; the Company
shall not create floating liens subject to certain terms; the
Company has the right for early redemption under certain
conditions; the Company shall pay additional annual interest of
0.5% in the case of a two-notch downgrade in the Notes rating and
an additional annual interest of 0.25% for each further
single-notch downgrade, up to a maximum additional interest of 1%;
the Company shall pay additional annual interest of 0.25% during a
period in which there is a breach of the financial covenant. In any
case, the total maximum additional interest for Series F and G,
shall not exceed 1.25% or 1%, respectively. For more information
see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended
December 31, 2018.In the reporting period, the Company was in
compliance with all financial covenants and obligations and no
cause for early repayment occurred.(4) 'MAKAM' is a variable
interest based on the yield of 12 month government bonds issued by
the government of Israel. The interest rate is updated on a
quarterly basis.
* On these dates additional Notes of the series were issued. The
information in the table refers to the full series.** Representing
