AIRPORT CITY, Israel, Oct. 17, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Shikun & Binui Ltd. (TASE: SKBN.TA) ("the Company"), a global construction and infrastructure company headquartered in Israel, provides an update to the activities of its joint venture for the Houston, Texas toll lanes project in the United States (the "Project"), which is jointly controlled and not consolidated into the Company's financial statements (please see sections 11.2.2 B and 13.5.1, of the Company's annual 2018 financial report, reference 2019-01-026980).

Based on recent updated estimates, an additional delay of several months to the final delivery date of the project is expected. To the best of the Company's knowledge based on information received from the joint venture's management, due to various factors of which some are not under the control of the Company, including weather-related events that have recently affected the pace of work progress, a revision of the indirect and direct costs is expected.

As a result of the delay, the joint venture's management estimates a reduction in the profits of the joint venture. Due to this reduction, a loss will be recorded in the Company's financial statements for the third quarter estimated between US$12-16 million, as of the date of this report (an estimated figure which has not been either reviewed or audited).

Please note that the Company's estimates of the timing of completion of the project and its impact on profitability are forward-looking statements, as defined in the Israeli Securities Law of 1968. This information is based, amongst others, on estimates and values which rely on indications and variables which are not under the control of the Company. This information may differ (and even materially) from that as described above.
