DekelOil Public Limited ('DekelOil' or the 'Company')

Q3 2017 Update

DekelOil Public Limited, operator and owner of the profitable and vertically integrated Ayenouan palm oil project in Côte d'Ivoire (the 'Project'), announces an amendment to its Q3 Production & Sales Update announced on 18 October 2017.

The EUR6.4 million of product sales (excluding nursery), announced on 18 October 2017, included a c.EUR1 million portion of product sales with cash paid upfront, which were not produced by 30 September. For accounting revenue recognition purposes, these sales, which will be delivered and recorded as sales from October onwards, should therefore not be included in Q3 2017, meaning the Company has revised the total product sales figure (excluding nursery) for the period to EUR5.4 million.

Updated Q3 2017 production and sales figures for Crude Palm Oil ('CPO'), Palm Kernel Oil ('PKO') and Palm Kernel Cake ('PKC') at the Company's profitable and vertically integrated Ayenouan palm oil project in Côte d'Ivoire (the 'Project'), are detailed in the table below:
