Exhibit 1
Clarification Regarding Sale of Shares by Controlling Shareholder of Pointer Telocation Ltd.
Rosh HaAyin, Israel November 1, 2016. (Nasdaq: PNTR & TASE: PNTR) – Pointer Telocation Ltd. would like to clarify that the sale of shares reported by DBSI Investments Ltd. on Schedule 13D/A today relates to sales of shares performed during March and April 2016 and not recently. The above sales were executed mainly to allow Pointer to meet minimum percentage requirements of public float, which was necessary for the Spin-Off of Shagrir Vehicle Services Ltd. which took place during that time.
The report was filed today, although there is no legal requirement, in order to correctly reflect the holdings in Pointer and will allow Pointer to be registered under certain indexes in the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange.
