Partner Communications Company Ltd.

New Issuance

‘ilA+’ Rating Assigned To Bond Issuance Of Up To NIS 62.2 Million Par Value Through A Future Private Placement Of Options Dated April 2019

S&P Maalot hereby assigns its ‘ilA+’ rating to bonds of up to NIS 62.2 million par value to be issued by Partner Communications Co. Ltd. (ilA+/Stable) through the expansion of Series G by exercising non-tradable options (see our rating report published on April 17, 2019). The proceeds from the issuance will be used for the company's ongoing activity.

We note that there remains a high degree of uncertainty about the evolution of the coronavirus pandemic. Reports that at least one experimental vaccine is highly effective and might gain initial approval by the end of the year are promising, but this is merely the first step toward a return to social and economic normality; equally critical is the widespread availability of effective immunization, which could come by the middle of next year. We use this assumption in assessing the economic and credit implications associated with the pandemic (see our research on S&P Maalot website and S&P Global Ratings website). As the situation evolves, we will update our assumptions and estimates accordingly.

For additional information on the rating and for other regulatory requirements, see our rating report dated August 10, 2020.
