I. Letter to Shareholders

Dear Valued Shareholders,

The year 2016 was a challenging year for the global aerospace industry. While sluggish economic growth and oil price fluctuation had considerable impacts upon the industry, reduction and deferral of international orders, low price competition from emerging countries, and the fact that the advanced countries using high‐efficient automatic machines to lower manufacturing costs added more pressure upon AIDC. To survive in such a difficult environment, AIDC has rearranged its business composition, and encouraged employees to do their best to overcome difficulties and to further pursue and explore new businesses. The results evidenced that our efforts has paid back with revenue exceeding that of 2015.

The market outlooks released by Boeing, Airbus and Bombardier in 2016 all forecasted optimistic growth for the commercial aircraft market in the next 10 years. To meet the anticipated strong market demand and to maintain self‐developed product services and core technologies, internally AIDC has completed the construction of its Engine Case Manufacturing Center (ECMC), the Taiwan Advanced Composite Center (TACC #19) and the F‐16 A/B Upgrade & Maintenance Building which are all operational. In tandem we have undertaken improvements from the perspectives of business, industry, human resources and cross sector integration and have launched Lean Production practices and Industry 4.0 intelligent factory. Externally, AIDC has joined hands with nearly 300 domestic suppliers who share the similar values and concepts to form the Taiwan Aerospace Industry A‐Team 4.0 Alliance to pursue and explore business opportunities and to interact with international aerospace companies. It is hoped with such dedicated effort and close coordination of the A‐Team 4.0, that members can work to reduce costs, upgrade the technological level, enhance overall competitiveness and significantly benefit Taiwan's aerospace supply chain as a whole.

I would like to express my appreciation and gratitude to all our valued shareholders for your steadfast support of our programs, and the summary of the report on the operation results for FY 2016 and the business plan for FY 2017 are presented hereunder.

The development of a country's aviation industry is considered an indicator of the country's industrial level. Accordingly AIDC is vigorously pursuing the new advanced jet trainer program, which shall help sustain the pool of human resource as well as enhance Taiwan's aerospace industry capability. Internally, AIDC has completed three new facilities, namely Engine Case Manufacturing Center (ECMC), the Taiwan Advanced Composite Center (TACC #19) and the F‐16 A/B Upgrade & Maintenance Building which all three are operational. In addition, the Taiwan Aerospace A‐Team 4.0 Alliance which integrates domestic suppliers from diverse business sectors, including; raw material, intelligent machinery, manufacturing, logistics, academia, research, finance, to mention a few, are intended to enhance Taiwan’s competitiveness in the global aerospace industry. It is hoped that through this joint effort, Taiwan will acquire an increased share of the global aerospace business, and AIDC will be able to expand overall business opportunities while at the same time, increase both revenue and shareholders’ interests.

May I wish you all good fortune and good health.

Chairman Jung‐Hsin Liao

1.6 Dividend Policy of the Company and the Implementation

1.6.1 Dividend Policy of the Company

On allocating the annual earrings, the Company shall first pay the income tax, offset the losses of previous years, set aside 10% as a legal reserve except that the legal reserve has equaled the total capital of the Company; then set aside a special reserve in accordance with relevant laws or regulations. The residual earnings will be appropriated according to the following principles per resolution in the shareholders’ meeting:

  • A. Profits may be distributed by taking financial, business, operational, or other related factors into consideration.

  • B. After setting aside the legal and special reserves and adding the beginning retained earnings and other adjustments (or reversals) to the earnings net in the current period, 50%‐100% of the distribution earnings shall be allocated as cash dividend and subject to the Shareholders’ Meeting resolution for disbursement. Distribution of profits may be made by way of cash dividend and/or stock dividend. Since the Company is in a capital‐intensive industry, distribution of profits may be

42

made preferably by way of cash dividend or stock dividend, provided however, the ratio for stock dividend shall not exceed 50% of total distribution.

However, if there is no earnings for distribution in the current year, or if the amount of the earnings is far less than the actual earnings for distribution of the previous year, or in consideration of financial, business, operational, or other related factors, the Company shall distribute all or part of the reserve according to the laws or regulations of the competent authorities.

  • (2) The appropriation of special reserve (30%) totals NT$624,796 thousand. This pool of capital is reserved for the investment in fixed assets.

  • (3) After setting aside the aforesaid reserves and adding the beginning retained earnings and other adjustments (or reversals) to the earnings net in the current period, the amount of earnings for distribution is NT$1,253,180 thousand. It is proposed to disburse:

  • Cash dividend at NT$1.00/share, a total of NT$908,261 thousand which is72.5% of the earnings for distribution.

  • Stock dividend at NT$0.37/share, a total of NT$336,057 thousand which is 26.8% of the earning for distribution.

1.2 Industry Outlook

1.2.1 Industry Outlook and Development

1.2.1.1 Defense Industry

46

While air force is our primary customer, defense business lies with the defense budget of the government. Although defense budget varied in recent years, it remained at a steady level to maintain the military power.

To replace the aging F‐5 fighters and AT‐3 jet trainers Air Force has drawn up a budget plan of NT$68.64 billion in 2017 to acquire new advanced jet trainers, and plan is to be executed from 2017 to 2028.

To meet the combat requirement with limited defense budget, performance upgrade and life extension of the aging military aircraft become viable choices. Furthermore, while the MND is working on downsizing and streamlining the armed forces, there stands a good chance for the MND to release the commercial maintenance of military aircraft and government‐owned contractor‐operated (GOCO) businesses to the private sector.

1.2.1.2 Commercial Aviation

According to the market forecast released by Airbus and Boeing, for the next 20 years (2016‐2035) new airplane requirement is 33,070~39,620, with market value of US$5.2~5.9 trillion and an passenger traffic average annual growth rate of 4.5%‐4.8%, as measured in revenue passenger kilometers (RPK). That indicates the air traffic industry is and will remain in stable development.

1.2.3 Different Development Trends of Products

I n national defense, most of the jet fighters are at the brink of retirement from service. As such, the Ministry of National Defense has budgeted for long‐term maintenance and performance upgrade of the jet fighters and trainers currently in service. Under the MND’s policy of downsizing and streamlining the armed forces, the maintenance of military aircraft has been outsourced to the private sector. This trend will be developed further in stable paces.

In commercial aviation, lightweight, fuel efficient and environmental friendly new aircraft has become the mainstream product in the market, and the composite material is the impetus that leads to the trend of airplane replacement in the aviation industry. The continued demand for new airplanes will also drive a higher demand in the engine market.

In industrial technology service, AIDC supports the government policy of prevention of disasters prevails the relief after disasters and the objectives of energy saving and carbon reduction, and intensifies its operation in aviation service for atmospheric measurement in disaster prevention and energy technology service.

1.2.4 The Competition

1.2.4.1 Defense Business

The capability and expertise acquired from the development of the IDF fighter and AT‐3 jet trainer give AIDC the edge in pursuing the subsequent performance upgrade and maintenance business. In addition, AIDC has already participated in and has experience in the operation of GOCO services and that give AIDC additional momentum in the competition.

1.2.4.2 Commercial Aviation Business

Major aircraft and engine manufacturers in Europe and America adopted global division of work practice and established the parts and components supply chain system. Currently, the newly emerged economies penetrated into the processing of particular part of aircraft and engines at very low price under the support of their governments. This poses a threat in the price competition. Boeing came up with the “Partnering for Success” policy, in which suppliers are required to reduce prices by 15%‐25%, and those who fail to comply shall be excluded for future contracts. In view of the popularity of its A320 series aircraft, Airbus too brought up “Scope+” supplier strategy demanding for 10% price reduction before 2019. The cost reduction demands from international companies have grown into a tremendous pressure.

To relieve from the vicious cycle of cutthroat competition, AIDC has already oriented towards the development of system parts and components and seeked to engage in the high value‐added aircraft segments and engine components. Meanwhile, AIDC has organized the Taiwan Aerospace Industry A‐Team 4.0 Alliance with the objectives of “cross‐sector alliance, work division of same sector, lean production , and competitiveness enhancement”, and has integrated diverse sectors including; raw materials, machinery, manufaturing and logistics to form the aerospace industry supply chain. It is hoped that by bringing together suppliers who share similar value and concepts, and via work division by speciality and strength to promote the cooperation between members and eventually upgrade the competitivness of Taiwan aerospace indusry as a whole.

1.2.4.3 Industrial Technology Service Business

AIDC mainly uses its aerospace technology on hand to provide the service. In supporting the government in the development of strategic industries and the demand for large‐scale system engineering in the private sector, AIDC develops relevant products and services and has already gained an edge in the competition.

1.1.3 Notes to the Variation of the Audited Financial Figures and the Financial Figures Approved by NAO

1.1.3.1 AIDC is still a state‐owned enterprise which requires its accounting and financial statements to be prepared in accordance with the Criteria for the Compilation of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers, Commercial Accounting Act, Regulation on Business Entity Accounting Handling, and the ROC GAAP. Where the Executive Yuan, Ministry of Economic Affairs, and the National Audit Office may promulgate different regulations governing the accounting of state‐owned enterprises, comply accordingly. Account settlement of each fiscal year shall be subject to the review of the Executive Yuan and the National Audit Office of the Control Yuan. The aforementioned review includes the review of AIDC on the execution of the budget passed by the Legislative Yuan. The accounts of AIDC shall be confirmed only after the review. As of 2012, the journal books of AIDC have been subjected to the review of the Executive Yuan and National Audit Office of the Control Yuan, which was based on the ROC GAAP before the application of IFRSs. Related adjustment has been made and the accounts were updated accordingly.

1.1.3.2 AIDC compiled its financial statement under IFRSs since 2013 in compliance with the “Introduction of IFRSs to State‐Owned Enterprises Implementation Scheme” established by the Executive Yuan. The financial report of FY2013 was the very first financial report prepared in accordance with the IFRSs, and has been reviewed by the Executive Yuan and the National Audit Office of the Control Yuan. Related adjustments and accounts update have been made as per their instructions. AIDC switched to the IFRSs on January 1 2012. For the consistency of comparing the financial statements, the aforementioned financial statements covering FY 2012 were prepared and audited under the ROC GAAP with approval of the NAO and also the adjustments under IFRSs. The financial statements covering FY 2013 were prepared in accordance with the IFRSs and reviewed by NAO. The financial statements covering FY 2014 were prepared in accordance with IFRSs and audited accordingly.

65

1.1.3.3 AIDC was a state‐owned enterprise under the Ministry of Economic Affairs and became a private owned corporate on August 21 2014. The financial statements prepared before privatization were based on the figures audited by NAO and Executive Yuan. After privatization, the financial figures audited by independent accountants and the figures approved by NAO are congruent.

  • 1.2 Materiality that may Affect the Consistency of the Aforementioned Condensed Financial Statements in Comparison, such as Change in Accounting Policy, Corporate Merger, or Discontinuation of Specific Operation Segments, and the Effect on the Financial Statement of Relevant Period: None.

Note 3: Up to the publication of this annual report, Q1 2017 financial statements have not been audited by the CPA, therefore it is not disclosed.

Note 4: The equation for calculation in this sheet:

  1. Financial structure (1) Liabilities to assets ratio = total liabilities / total assets

(2) Long‐term capital to property, plant and equipment ratio = (total equity + non‐current liabilities) /net property, plant, and equipment

  1. Ability to pay debt

67

  • (1) Current ratio = current assets/ current liabilities

  • (2) Quick ratio = (current assets – inventory – prepaid expenses)/ current liabilities

  • (3) Debt service coverage ratio = EBIT/ interest expenses in current period

    1. Utility
  • (1) Receivables (including account receivables and note receivables deriving from business operation) turnover rate = net sales/ average receivables (including account receivables and note receivables deriving from business operation) in relevant periods.

  • (2) Average days of cash receipt = 365/account receivable turnover rate

  • (3) Inventory turnover rate = cost of sales/ average inventory

  • (4) Payables (including account payables and note payables deriving from business operation) turnover rate = cost of sales/ balance of average payables (including account payables and note payables deriving from business operation) in relevant periods.

  • (5) Average days of sales = 365 / inventory turnover rate

  • (6) Property, plant and equipment turnover rate = net sales / average net property, plant, and equipment

  • (7) Total assets turnover = net sales / average total assets

  • Profitability

  • (1) Return on assets = [Earnings (loss) net + interest expense x (1‐tax rate)]/average total assets

  • (2) Return on equity = Earnings (loss) net / average total equity

  • (3) Net profit rate = Earnings (loss) net / net sales

  • (4)Earnings per share = (incomes attributable to parent shareholders’ equity – preferred share dividend) /weighted average quantity of outstanding shares (Note 5)

  • Cash flow

  • (1) Cash flow ratio = net cash flow from operation / current liabilities

  • (2) Net cash flow suitability ratio = net cash flow from operation in the last 5 years / (capital expenditure + increase of inventory + cash dividend) in the last 5 years

  • (3) Cash reinvestment ratio = (net cash flow from operation – cash dividend) / (gross property, plant and equipment + long‐term investment + other non‐current assets + working capital) (Note 6)

  • Leverage

  • (1) Operation leverage = (net sales – operating variable cost and expense) / operating income (Note 7)

  • (2) Financial leverage = operating income / (operating income – interest expenses)

  • Note 5: On applying the equation for calcuation of the earnings per share, following factors shall be noted:

  • The calculation is based on the weighted average quantity of common shares, not the number of the outstanding issued shares at year end.

  • In the case of capital increased by cash or trade of treasury stock, time of the circulation shall be considered in calculating weighted average shares.

  • In the case of capital increase by earnings recapitalization, on calculating earnings per share for the previous fiscal year and 1/2 fiscal year, the calculation shall be retrospected and adjusted per the ratio of capital increase, not the period of issuance.

  • If the stock is non‐convertible cumulative preferred stock, the dividend of the current year (whether distribute or not) shall be deducted from net profit or added to net loss. If the preferred stock is non‐cumulative, in the case of net earnings, dividend of the preferred stock shall be deducted from net earnings; no adjustment is required in the case of loss.

  • Note 6: On cash flow analysis, following factors shall be noted:

  • Net cash flow provided by operating activity refers to the net cash inflow provided by operating activity in the Statement of Cash Flows.

  • Capital expense refers to the cash flow of capital investment each year.

  • Inventory increase shall only be recorded when the amount at the end of the period is greater than that of the beginning of the period; if less, the number 0 shal be recorded.

Reasons for Changes in the Items of Financial Analysis in the Last 2 Years (if the change falls below 20%, no
analysis is necessary):
1. Long‐term capital to property, plant and equipment ratio of FY 2016 is lower than FY 2015 due to decrease of
long‐term loans and increase of capital expenditure of plant and equipment.
2. Current ratio of FY 2016 is lower than Fey 2015 due to decrease of current assets and increase of current
liabilities (decrease of inventory and other financial assets, increase of short‐term loans).
3. Property, plant and equipment turnover rate of FY 2016 is lower than FY 2015 due to the increase of revenue
is less than the increase of property, plant and equipment.
4.Cash flow ratio and cash reinvestment ratio of FY 2016 is higher than FY 2015 due to the prepayment for the
purchase of non‐commercial parts of military programs in FY 2015 which caused increase of outflow of cash.
This year with arrival of prepaid parts and the decrease of material procurement, operating net cash inflow
increased.

Significant changes in the components of assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity (change in 10% of more and
the amount changed approximated NTD 10 million) in the last 2 years, the main causes and the effect, and the plan
for responding to the changes are specified below:
1.Adding of financial assets at cost ‐ noncurrent: for business operation consideration, made investment in UHT
Unitech Co., Ltd. this year.
2.Increase in investment accounted for under the equity method: mainly because of the increase in the share of
profit from the associated enterprise of International Turbine Engine Company LLC accounted for under the
equity method.
3.Increase of property, plant and equipment: mainly because of the replacement and construction of the F‐16A/B
upgrade and maintenance building, ECMC and TACC‐19 facilities.
4.Increase of intangible assets: mainly because of the increase of capitalized non‐recurrent costs not being
amortized.
5.Increase of current liabilities: mainly because of the increase of loans for investment in fixed assets and increase
of equipment payment.
6.Decrease of non‐current liabilities: mainly because of the repayment of long‐term loans.
7.Increase of retained earnings: mainly because of the growth of operation performance that resulted in the
increase of earnings net in the current period.
8.Decrease of other equity: mainly because of the translation of foreign currency financial statements of associated
enterprise International Turbine Engine Company LLC resulted in the decrease of cumulative translation
adjustments.

The major causes of significant changes in revenue, operating income and EBT (change of more than 10% and the
absolute value of change amounted to NT$10 million):
1.Increase of operating gross profit and operating net income: mainly because of the increase of revenue of
aircraft products and maintenance service, and continuous LEAN efforts which resulted in increase of gross
profit.
2.Increase of operating expense: mainly because of the increase of R&D expense than the previous year.
3.Decrease of non‐operating revenues and expenditures: mainly because of the fluctuations of exchange rate
against USD which resulted in increase of the net exchange loss in the current year.
4.Increase of income tax expense: mainly because of increase of the net income from the growth of operating
income in current year which resulted in the increase of income tax and undistributed earnings tax expenses.
5.Decrease of other comprehensive income (after taxation): mainly because of the actuarial loss by recognition of
actuarial benefit of the defined benefit plan under the actuarial report for FY2015; and the decrease of

Cash flow ratio (%) 17.47% 27.47% 10.00%
Cash flow suitability ratio (%) 140.02% 119.13% (20.89)%
Cash reinvestment ratio (%) 6.38% 13.02% 6.64%
Notes to the Analysis of the Proportion of Change:

increase of outflow of cash. This year with arrival of prepaid parts and the decrease of material
procurement, operating net cash inflow increased.
2.Cash Flow Suitability Ratio decreased
In the last 5 years the increase of net cash flow from operating activities was less than the increase of
capital expenditure and cash dividend.

Note 1: The basis of comparison for FY2015 and FY2016 are the audited figures under IFRSs.

Note 2: FY 2016 is the first year AIDC is required to prepare consolidated financial statements, as such

aforementioned information for FY 2015 is on AIDC individual company and FY2016 is the consolidated one.

6. Risks under Assessment in Previous Year to the Date this Report was Printed

  • 6.1 The Effect of Interest Rate and Exchange Rate Fluctuation and Inflation on the Income Level

  • of the Company and the Responding Measures

6.1.1 The Effect of Interest Rate Fluctuation on the Income Level of the Company and the Response in the Future

Interest income in FY 2016 amounted to NT$33,714 thousand or accounted for 0.12% of the consolidated earnings. Interest expense in the same year amounted to NT$127,344 thousand or accounted for0.47% of the consolidated earnings. These figures indicated that interest expense has marginal effect on the income level of the Company. The Company also makes timely adjustment of the use of capital in line with the change in interest rate to mitigate the influence of interest rate fluctuation on income level.

6.1.2 The Effect of Exchange Rate Fluctuation on the Income Level of the Company and the Response in the Future

Net exchange loss in FY 2016 amounted to NT$49,748 thousand or accounted for 0.18% of the consolidated revenue. The Company has its export sales and purchases of the Company mostly denominated in USD and therefore takes the following measures to tackle with exchange rate fluctuation:

  • 6.1.2.1 Gather timely information on the exchange rate and is engaged in frequent consultation with relevant financial institutions on mapping out the hedge strategy in exchange rate in order to keep abreast of the trend of exchange rate.

  • 6.1.2.2 Manage the liabilities and assets denominated in foreign currencies through offsetting

136

account payables and receivables with flexibility to minimize the effect of exchange rate fluctuation.

  • 6.1.2.3 In compliance with the requirement of the competent authority, the Company has instituted the “Procedure for Derivative Trade” so as to use proper financial tool for hedging off the risk deriving from exchange rate fluctuation and minimize the impact of exchange rate fluctuation on the Company.

137

of the Company and the Response

According to the forecast of international aerospace companies such as Boeing, Airbus, Bombardier, Rolls‐Royce and professional market research institutes, the aerospace industry will sustain continuous growth and development in the long run.

The plunging oil prices may have impact on the aircraft replacement market, however the cost of fuel is not the only factor for the airlines to decide on the purchase of new aircraft, other factors such as low interest rates (which make the cost of capital for purchasing new aircraft relatively low) and meeting the needs of emerging markets are also considered stimuli for new aircraft purchase.

For environmental protection, demands for light weight, fuel efficiency, and low carbon emission continue to lead the design and development of new aircrafts and engines, and the application of composite materials also plays a key part in this trend. To bolster its position as tier 1 supplier of Airbus, in addition to TACC, AIDC further invested in the construction of TACC #19 dedicated to the production of composite parts and components for the popular single aisle A320 series aircraft. To satisfy the strong demand of GE and Rolls‐Royce for green engines, Engine Case Manufacturing Center (ECMC) was thus built and certified for production. The focus of future efforts shall be on the design, development and production of aerospace composite materials. AIDC shall use the existing technological capability as the basis to introduce advanced key technology and machinery and to cooperate with international companies in order to contribute to the financial position and operation of the Company.

AIDC will keep abreast of and be prepared for the development of related technologies and market trend, and at the same time assess the impact it may have on AIDC’s business operation.

6.6 The Effect of the Change in Corporate Image on Corporate Crisis Management and the Response

AIDC is strictly attached to its corporate philosophy of “Accountability, Integrity, Innovation, Dedication, and Customer Orientation” and its corporate culture and seeks to upgrade its technology in the production and manufacturing of aircrafts and quality management at all times. It also seeks to enhance its relation with the customers and create value for the customers, and spares no effort in upgrading its quality and efficiency through internal management and external inspection. AIDC has positive corporate image and has no significant change in such image that may result in corporate crisis.

6.7 Expected Return On and Possible Risk from Mergers and Acquisitions, and the Response

In the previous year to the date this report is printed, AIDC has no plan for acquiring any other companies. If there is such a plan in the future, AIDC will take caution in the assessment and will fully consider the synergy after the merger, and comply with applicable legal rules and the internal code of the Company to protect the interest of the Company and shareholders’ equity.

6.8 Expected Return On and Possible Risk from Capacity Expansion, and the Response

AIDC has already secured business from international giant firms in engine case and components and parts in composite materials, and military aircraft maintenance. After its consultation with the international giant firms, AIDC has launched the plan for the construction of new plants for housing the engine case manufacturing center, composite materials manufacturing center, and the depot for the maintenance of military aircraft. The expected result, possible risk, and response are elaborated below:

6.8.1 Expected Result: capacity expansion can help to accommodate a large volume of engine case and composite materials production and the maintenance of military aircrafts. This helps to

138

satisfy the needs of customer orders and also enhance the economic efficiency.

6.8.2 Possible Risk and Response: the Company has completed its assessment on the schedule of plant construction, business volume, cost of production, and the sources of capital, and has mapped out the goals for managing relevant risks and a backup plan.

6.8.3 The construction work and procurement of the equipment of the aforementioned capacity expansion projects are progressing as scheduled, and is expected to satisfy customer orders.

6.9 The Risk Deriving from Concentration of Purchase or Sales and the Response

6.9.1 Assessment of the Risk Deriving from Concentration of Purchase and the Response:

The procurement of AIDC is mainly based on the procurement operation procedure of AIDC. Purchase will be made by tender offer by nature of the content of purchase, and could be classified as public tender, selective tender, restricted tender and joint supply contracts. The top 10 suppliers of AIDC in the last 3 years accounted for 35.14%, 42.75% and 50.15% of purchase, respectively. The number one supplier in these years accounted for 5.98%, 10.44% and 8.28% of the purchase of respective years. There is no particular supply that purchases amounted to 30% or more. AIDC has developed strong bonding with key suppliers in the long run and the supply from these suppliers in the last 3 years was good. There is no shortage of supply, severing of supply or delay that affected production. There is no over concentration of purchase either.)

6.9.2 Assessment of Risk Deriving from Concentration of Sales and the Response

Conceived with the mission of “enforce autonomous defense, enhance national security, develop aerospace industry and boost economic prosperity”, AIDC concentrated its sales to the Ministry of Defense in the past. Under the increasing attention of the international aerospace firms in aerospace technologies, AIDC sought to develop new overseas customers in aircrafts and engines. As such, the business line has been changed from military supply to a proper balance between military supply and commercial use. The biggest customer is still the Ministry of National Defense whose share of business accounted for 90% at the initial stage of the operation, and fell gradually over the years to less than 50%. As such, there is no risk of concentration of sales.

  • 6.10 The Massive Transfer or Swap of Shares by the Directors, Supervisors, or Dominant Shareholders Holding more than 10% of the Stakes and the Influence, Risk on the Company and the Response

In the previous year to the date this report is printed, AIDC has provided shares for employees to subscribe on a favorable term and preemptive basis pursuant to the regulations of the Statute of Privatization of Government‐Owned Enterprises. The dominant shareholder, the Ministry of Economic Affairs disposed 5.66% of its shares in 2015 and 2016. However, there is limitation of shares for subscription in the aforementioned means and there is no shareholder holding more than 10% of the stakes. The Ministry of Economic Affairs remains the dominant shareholder and such changes in shareholding structure did not cause any influence on the operation of the Company. There is also no massive transfer or swap of shares by the Directors, or shareholders holding more than 10% of the stakes.

  • 6.11 The Influence On and the Risk Deriving from the Change in the Management and the Response

The Ministry of Economic Affairs is still the dominant shareholders by holding specific proportion of the shares after privatization of AIDC. As such, the change in equity structure did not cause any unfavorable influence on the management.
