That story rests on execution in leasing and tenant mix, on steady demand for shopping and leisure space, and on tight control of construction spend. Earnings have grown 8.4% over the past year and sit on a P/E of 11.3% compared with the broader IL market on 15%, although a large one off gain of ₪1.2b inflates recent profit quality.

Interim leadership now flows through Oren Hellinger as both CFO and Acting CEO, which may actually keep capital discipline tight in the short run. However, it concentrates operational and financial calls in one office at precisely the moment when earnings growth has already cooled slightly versus the 5 year pace.
