CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

Introduction

The first half of 2020 was a period of change. In this period, major shareholders, reportedly, sold their holdings in the Company to new major shareholders, and except for one, all directors resigned and were replaced by others.

Operating Performance

As Matomy has sold all its operations, the company has no revenues, and the expenses shown in this period relate to ongoing shutdown and public company expenses.

Outlook

The Company is now seeking a new operational horizon, in which it can grow and prosper.

Chairman

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Revenue:

As Matomy exited and sold all its operations, the Company did not have any revenues in H1 2020.

 
  ($ millions)            H1 2020     H1 2019

  Adjusted gross margin (non-GAAP) (%)             -         26.4% 
 

Operational expenses (income)

The decrease in operating expenses is attributable to the sale of Team Internet in late 2019 which lowered the operating expenses to the minimum.

Financial expenses (income)

Net financial expenses decreased by $2 million to $0.1 million expense for the six months ended 30 June 2020 (H12019: $2.1 million expense). The decrease is primarily due to the repayment of the bond on 8 January 2020, which caused minimum bond interest and no bond revaluation in H1 2020. Financial expenses in H1 2020 were caused primarily from revaluation of the investment in CNIC offset by an income due to exchange rate difference.

Tax benefit

Tax benefit decreased to $(0.1) million income for the six--month period ended 30 June 2020 (6.9% of loss before taxes), from an income of $0.8 million for the same period last year. Tax benefit in H1 2020 was due to decrease in operations and full valuation allowance on the Company's loss.

Amortization of intangible assets

Amortization expenses from continuing operations were $0 million in H1 2020 and $0.6 million in H1 2019. The decrease is a result of intangible assets being fully amortised or impaired in prior years and during 2019.

Net loss

Net loss was $0.9 million in H1 2020 (H1 2019: $16.6 million). The Net loss of $0.9 million in H1 2020 was mainly due to operating and finance expenses slightly off-set by tax benefit.

Liquidity and cash flows

The following table sets out selected cash flow information for the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2020 and 2019.

 
 
  $ millions                                                               H1 2020    H1 2019 
                                                                              (Unaudited) 
  Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities                       (1.2)       3.8 
  Net cash provided by investing activities                                  1.8        1.5 
  Net cash used in financing activities                                    (29.2)      (3.7) 
  Increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash     (28.6)       1.6 
  Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash at beginning of period      33.6       10.3 
  Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash at end of period             5.0       11.9 
 

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by $6.9 million, or 58%, to $5.0 million as at 30 June 2020, compared to $11.9 million as at 30 June 2019.

Cash flows used in operating activities were 1.2 million in H1 2020. This negative cash flow in H1 2020 is a result of the net loss generated from operating expenses with no revenue.

Net cash provided by investing activities of $1.8 million (H1 2019: $1.5 million) was related to $1.8 million cash received in H1 2020 from sale of subsidiary in 2019.

Cash flows used in financing activities of 29.2 million (H1 2019: $3.7 million) was related to full repayment of the convertible bond.

Principal risks

The directors assess and monitor the key risks of the business on an ongoing basis. The principal risks and uncertainties that could have a material effect on the Group's performance include, among other things, the following:

-- Matomy's cash flow in the coming year depends on the share price of Centralnic Group PLC. (LON:CNIC), and Matomy's ability to successfully sell this asset.

   --      Matomy may be subject to third-party claims brought against it 

-- Matomy is an Israeli-domiciled company and as such the rights and obligations of shareholders are governed by Israeli law and differ in some respects from English law

The Board of Directors

Matomy Media Group Ltd.

 
   Review Report of Independent Auditors 
 

We have reviewed the consolidated financial information of Matomy Media Group Ltd. and its subsidiaries (collectively "the Company"), which comprise the consolidated balance sheet as of 30 June 2020, and the related consolidated information of operations, changes in shareholder's equity and cash flows for the six-month periods ended 30 June 2020 and 2019.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Information

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the interim financial information in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; this includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control sufficient to provide a reasonable basis for the preparation and fair presentation of interim financial information in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to conduct our review in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States applicable to reviews of interim financial information. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial information. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated financial information referred to above for it to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Sale of all of the Company's activities

As described in Note 1b to the financial statements, in December 2019, the Company completed the sale of all of its activities and in January 2020 fully repaid all of its obligations to the bondholders. Our report is not modified with respect to this matter.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

US dollars in thousands (except share and per share data)

   NOTE 1:-   GENERAL 

a. Matomy was incorporated in 2006. The Company's shares were traded on the London Stock Exchange ("LSE") and on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange ("TASE"), until 23 June 2020, when the trading in the Company's shares was suspended both on TASE and LSE.

In the period spanning from mid-2017 through December 2019, the Company exited all its activities, as further described in Note 1b below. In addition, on 8 January 2020, the Company fully repaid all its obligations to the bondholders.

   b.      S ale of subsidiary: 

On 15 November 2019, the Company and Rainmaker Investments GmbH (" Rainmaker ") , a minority shareholder (10%) in Team Internet AG ("Team Internet") , signed a binding agreement with Centralnic Group PLC, whose shares are traded on the AIM Market of the London Stock Exchange, (" Purchaser " or " CNIC ") to sell all the shares in Team Internet (the " Transaction ") for total consideration of EUR45,854,332, plus Interest Amount as determined in the agreement. On 24 December 2019 the Transaction was completed. The Purchase Price consisted of the following:

(a) A cash payment on closing date in an amount of EUR39,554,332 (the "Cash Payment"), plus Interest Amount (EUR764,286), in addition to a retained amount of EUR900,000 (the " Retention Amount "). The Retention Amount will be fully released after 15 months period, less deductions for settled claims or for outstanding claims (which are supported by documents as specified in the agreement). The retention amount (net of deferred cash payment that Rainmaker are entitled to receive - see below) is presented at fair value of $551 upon closing and is included within other receivables and prepaid expenses in the amount of $573 on the balance sheet as of 30 June 2020 and in the amount of $557 as of 31 December 2019 and is included within other assets.

(b) 3,911,650 Purchaser shares. The number of shares was determined by dividing EUR2,700,000 by the Purchaser's share price, as determined in the agreement. Such shares are subject to a lock-up period of 12 months, plus an additional 6-month period during which any disposal must be approved by and coordinated with the Purchaser and its broker. The investment in these shares (net of shares paid to Rainmaker - see below), is presented at fair value of $1,587 on the closing date ($2,204 and $2,450 as of 30 June 2020 and 31 December 2019, respectively) and is presented as investment in financial assets measured at fair value on the balance sheets.

(c) A deferred cash payment of EUR2,700,000 payable 6 months following the closing. Such payment (net of deferred cash payment that Rainmaker are entitled to receive). The full deferred cash payment in the amount of $1,820 was received on 23 June 2020.

   NOTE 1:-   GENERAL (Cont.) 

As part of the Transaction, immediately prior to closing date, the Company consummated the purchase of the remaining 10% stake of Rainmaker in Team Internet in accordance with the share purchase agreement dated December 2017 between the Company and Rainmaker , by assigning to Rainmaker a portion of the Purchase Price. Rainmaker received a total sum of EUR19,050,000: (i) a sum of EUR 16,508,190 out of the Cash Payment; (ii) EUR1,087,350 paid in Purchaser shares (1,575,309 shares); (iii) a sum of EUR1,087,350 out of the deferred cash payment; (iv) a sum of EUR 367,110 out of the Retention Amount.

The remaining amount of the Cash Payment (EUR23,046,142) plus the Interest Amount of EUR765,286, in total EUR23,810,427 was paid in December 2019 to the trustee of the Bonds (Series A) (the " Bonds " and the " Trustee ", respectively) for a full early redemption of the outstanding Bonds (ILS101,000 thousands) (principal and interest). The full redemption of the outstanding Bonds in the amount of $29,225 was executed on 8 January 2020 .

c. From time to time, we may be subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business. Regardless of the outcome, litigation can have an adverse impact on us because of defense and settlement costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.

In March 2020 the Company received a demand letter from a German firm (the "German Firm") under which the German Firm contends it is entitled to a transaction fee of EUR1.25 million under a consultancy agreement between the Company and the German Firm dated November 22, 2017, in connection with the sale of Team Internet AG which was consummated in December 2019 (the "Transaction").

The Company rejects the claims under the demand letter since, among other reasons, it appears that the German Firm did not provide any services to the Company after November 2018 and was not involved in the Transaction. The Company sent a letter to the German Firm rejecting these claims, and to date, has not heard back from the German Firm.

d. On 13 August 2020, the Company submitted to the Tel Aviv-Jaffa District Court (the "Court") a petition pursuant to Section 350 of the Israeli Companies Law (the "Petition"), requesting the Court to approve (i) the convening of separate meetings of preferential creditors, secured creditors, non-preferential creditors and a meeting of the shareholders of the Company, in order to approve an arrangement between the Company and its creditors and shareholders (the "Arrangement"); and (ii) the schedule of the proposed Arrangement.

The Arrangement provides for the transfer of all the assets, rights and liabilities known to the Company or contingent (other than NIS5 million ($1,470), the amount of cash necessary for the Company's operations for the next 12 months) to an account under the control of a trustee to be appointed by the Court, with the purpose of merging in the future a possible new activity into the Company free from any debt or claims associated with the Company's former activities. Any debt confirmed under the Arrangement will be paid out of the funds deposited with the trustee and any funds remaining following such process will be distributed as dividend to the Company's shareholders as of the approval date of the Arrangement by the Court.

   NOTE 2:-   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES 
   a.       Unaudited interim financial information: 

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial information have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP") for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results for the six-month period ended 30 June 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended 31 December 2020.

In the preparation of the interim consolidated financial information it applied the significant accounting policies, on a consistent basis to the annual financial statements of the Company as of 31 December 2019.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's financial statements ("the Annual Report") for the year ended 31 December 2019.

   b.      Use of estimates: 

The preparation of the consolidated financial information in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions. The Company's management believes that the estimates, judgments and assumptions it uses are reasonable based upon information available at the time they are made. These estimates, judgments and assumptions can affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial information, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

On an ongoing basis, the Company's management evaluates estimates, including those related to accounts receivable, fair values of financial instruments, fair values of stock-based awards, deferred taxes and income tax uncertainties and contingent liabilities. Such estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities.

   c.       Fair value of financial instruments: 

The carrying amounts of financial instruments carried at cost, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term deposits, prepaid expenses and other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturities of such instruments.

   NOTE 2:-   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Cont.) 

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 820 which defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

In determining a fair value, the Company uses various valuation approaches. ASC 820 establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, based on the best information available under given circumstances.

The hierarchy is broken down into three levels, based on the observability of inputs and assumptions, as follows:

-- Level 1 - Observable inputs obtained from independent sources, such as quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.

   --        Level 2 - Other inputs that are directly or indirectly observable in the market place. 
   --        Level 3 - Unobservable inputs which are supported by little or no market activity. 

The following table present liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of 30 June 2020 and 31 December 2019:
