EXPLANATORY
NOTE



This Amendment No. 1 to Form 20-F is being filed to amend the Annual
Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, filed by Formula Systems (1985) Ltd. (the “Company”)
on April 30, 2015 (the “2014 Form 20-F”). This Form 20-F/A is being filed solely to supplement “Item 18: Financial
Statements” and “Item 19: Exhibits” of the 2014 Form 20-F with the inclusion of



| | · | the audited financial statements of Magic Software Enterprises Ltd. (“Magic Software”), including the reports of
independent public registered accounting firm relating thereto (the “Magic Financial Statements”); and
| | - | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | · | the audited financial statements of Sapiens International Company N.V. (“Sapiens”), including the report of independent
registered public accounting firm relating thereto (the “Sapiens Financial Statements”).
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



The Magic Financial Statements and the Sapiens Financial Statements
are being filed in compliance with Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“Rule 3-09”).
Under Rule 3-09, the Company is required to provide audited financial statements for the period of the year ended December 31,
2014 during which each of Magic Software and Sapiens were accounted for under the equity method of accounting (in the case of Magic,
from March 5, 2014 to December 31, 2014 and in the case of Sapiens, from January 1, 2014 to December 24, 2014). Pursuant to relief
received from the Office of the Chief Accountant of the Division of Corporation Finance of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission,
rather than file the financial statements for such partial year periods, the Company is including the Magic Financial Statements
and the Sapiens Financial Statements which include the full year ended December 31, 2014.



As required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, updated certifications of the Company’s principal executive officer and  the Company’s
principal financial officer are being filed as exhibits to the Form 20-F/A. This Form 20-F/A also includes Exhibit 15.5,
which contains the consent of Kost, Forer, Gabbay & Kaiserer, a member of Ernst & Young Global, with respect to their
report included in the Magic Financial Statements and Exhibit 15.6, which contains the consent of Kost, Forer, Gabbay
& Kaiserer, a member of Ernst & Young Global, with respect to their report included in the Sapiens
Financial Statements.



This Form 20-F/A should be read in conjunction with the 2014
Form 20-F and  the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This Amendment No. 1 to the
2014 Form 20-F speaks as of the date of the initial filing of the 2014 Form 20-F. Other than as expressly set forth above,
this Form 20-F/A does not, and does not purport to, amend, update or restate the information in any part of the 2014 Form
20-F or reflect any events that have occurred after the 2014 Form 20-F was filed. The filing of this Form 20-F/A, and the
inclusion of newly executed certifications, should not be understood to mean that any other statements contained in the 2014
Form 20-F are true and complete as of any date subsequent to April 30, 2015.
