For the convenience of readers and for information purpose only, the auditors’ report and the accompanying financial statements have been translated into English from the original Chinese version prepared and used in the Republic of China.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE
PWCR13000207
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Altek Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Altek Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) as of December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012, and January 1, 2012, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in stockholders' equity and of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the “Rules Governing the Examination of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants” and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, and their financial performance and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, in conformity with the “Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.

We have also audited the non-consolidated financial statements of Altek Corporation (not presented herein) as of and for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, on which we have expressed an unqualified opinion on these consolidated financial statements.

IFRS 9, ‘Financial Instruments’: Classification and measurement of financial instruments
-
A.The International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) published IFRS 9, ‘Financial Instruments’, in November, 2009, which will take effect on January 1, 2013 with early application permitted (Through the amendments to IFRS 9 published on November 19, 2013, the IASB has removed the previous mandatory effective date, but the standard is available for immediate application). Although the FSC has endorsed IFRS 9, FSC does not permit early application of IFRS 9 when IFRSs are adopted in R.O.C. in 2013. Instead, enterprises should apply International Accounting Standard No. 39 (“IAS 39”), ‘Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement’ reissued in 2009.
-
B.IFRS 9 was issued as the first step to replace IAS 39. IFRS 9 outlines the new classification and measurement requirements for financial instruments, which might affect the accounting treatments for financial instruments of the Group.
-
C.The Group has not yet evaluated the overall effect of the IFRS 9 adoption. However, the Group considers there is no significant effect based on preliminary evaluation.

(3) IFRSs issued by IASB but not yet endorsed by the FSC
A.The following are the assessment of new standards, interpretations and amendments issued by IASB but not yet endorsed by the FSC (application of the new standards and amendments should follow the regulations of the FSC):
| New standards, Interpretations and Amendments |
Major Amendments | IASB Effective Date |
|---|---|---|
| Limited exemption from comparative IFRS 7 disclosures for first-time adopters (amendment to IFRS 1) |
The amendment provides first-time adopters of IFRSs with the same transition relief that existing IFRS preparer received in IFRS 7, ‘ Financial Instruments: Disclosures’ and exempts first-time adopters from providing the additional comparative disclosures. |
July 1, 2010 |
| Improvements to IFRSs 2010 | Amendments to IFRS 1, IFRS 3, IFRS 7, IAS 1, IAS 34 and IFRIC 13. |
January 1, 2011 |
| IFRS 9 ‘Financial instruments: Classification and measurement of financial liabilities’ |
IFRS 9 requires gains and losses on financial liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss to be split into the amount of change in the fair value that is attributable to changes in the credit risk of the liability, which shall be presented in other comprehensive income, and cannot be reclassified to profit or loss when derecognising the liabilities; and all other changes in fair value are recognised in profit or loss. The new guidance allows the recognition of the full amount of change in the fair value in the profit or loss only if there is reasonable evidence showing on initial recognition that the recognition of changes in the liability's credit risk in other comprehensive income would create or enlarge an accounting mismatch (inconsistency) in profit or loss. (That determination is made at initial recognition and is not reassessed subsequently.) |
November 19,2013 (Not mandatory) |
| Disclosures - transfers of financial assets (amendment to IFRS 7) |
The amendment enhances qualitative and quantitative disclosures for all transferred financial assets that are not derecognised and for any continuing involvement in a transferred assets, existing at the reporting date. |
July, 1, 2011 |
~10~
| New standards, Interpretations and Amendments |
Major Amendments | IASB Effective Date |
|---|---|---|
| Severe hyperinflation and removal of fixed dates for the first-time adopters (amendment to IFRS 1) |
When an entity’s date of transition to IFRSs is on, or after, the functional currency normalisation date, the entity may elect to measure all assets and liabilities held before the functional currency normalisation date at fair value on the date of transition to IFRSs. First-time adopters are allowed to apply the derecognition requirements in IAS 39, ‘ Financial Instruments: Recognition and measurement’, prospectively from the date of transition to IFRSs, and they are allowed not to retrospectively recognise related gains on the date of transition to IFRSs. |
July 1, 2011 |
| Deferred tax: recovery of underlying assets (amendment to IAS 12) |
The amendment gives a rebuttable presumption that the carrying amount of investment properties measured at fair value is recovered entirely by sale, unless there exists any evidence that could rebut this presumption. The amendment also replaces SIC 21, ‘Income taxes—recovery of revalued non-depreciable assets’. |
January 1, 2012 |
| IFRS 10 ‘Consolidated financial statements’ |
The standard builds on existing principles by identifying the concept of control as the determining factor in whether an entity should be included within the consolidated financial statements of the parent company. The standard provides additional guidance to assist in the determination of control where it is difficult to assess. |
January 1, 2013 |
| IFRS 11 ‘Joint arrangements’ | Judgments applied when assessing the types of joint arrangements-joint operations and joint ventures, the entity should assess the contractual rights and obligations instead of the legal form only. The standard also prohibits the proportional consolidation for joint ventures. |
January 1, 2013 |

The standard requires the disclosure of interests in other entities including subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and unconsolidated structured entities. |
January 1, 2013 |
| IAS 27, ‘Separate financial statements’ (as amended in 2011) |

January 1, 2013 |
| IAS 28,‘Investments in associates and joint ventures’ (as amended in 2011) |
As consequential amendments resulting from the issuance of IFRS 11 , ‘Joint arrangements’, IAS 28 (revised) sets out the requirements for the application of the equity method when accounting for investments in joint ventures. |
January 1, 2013 |
~11~
| New standards, Interpretations and Amendments |
Major content | Effective date |
|---|---|---|
| IFRS 13,‘ Fair Value Measurement’ | IFRS 13 aims to improve consistency and reduce complexity by providing a precise definition of fair value and a single source of fair value measurement and disclosure requirements for use across IFRSs. The requirements do not extend the use of fair value accounting but provide guidance on how it should be applied where its use is already required or permitted by other standards within IFRSs. |
January 1, 2013 |
| IAS 19 revised, ‘Employee benefits’ (as amended in 2011) |
The revised standard eliminates corridor approach and requires actuarial gains and losses to be recognised immediately in other comprehensive income. Past-service costs will be recognised immediately in the period incurred. Net interest expense or income, calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit asset or liability, replace the finance charge and expected return on plan assets. The return of plan assets, excluding net interest expenses, is recognised in other comprehensive income. |
January 1, 2013 |
| Presentation of items of other comprehensive income (amendment to IAS 1) |
The amendment requires profit or loss and other comprehensive income (OCI) to be presented separately in the statement of comprehensive income. Also, the amendment requires entities to separate items presented in OCI into two groups based on whether or not they may be recycled to profit or loss subsequently. |
July 1, 2012 |
| IFRIC 20, ‘ Stripping costs in the production phase of a surface mine’ |
Stripping costs that meet certain criteria should be recognised as the ‘stripping activity asset’. To the extent that the benefit fromthe stripping activity is realised in the formof inventory produced, the entity shall account for the costs of that stripping activity in accordance with IAS 2, ‘Inventories’. |
January 1, 2013 |
| Disclosures—Offsetting financial assets and financial liabilities (amendments to IFRS 7) |
The amendment requires disclosures to include quantitative information that will enable users of an entity’s financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements. |
January 1, 2013 |
| Offsetting Financial assets and financial liabilities (amendment to IAS 32) |
The amendments clarify the requirements for offsetting financial instruments on the statement of financial position: (i) the meaning of 'currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts'; and (ii) that some gross settlement mechanisms with certain features may be considered equivalent to net settlement. |
January 1, 2014 |

| Government loans (amendment to IFRS 1) |
The amendment provides exception to first- time adopters to apply the requirements in IFRS 9, ‘Financial instruments’, and IAS 20, ‘ Accounting for government grants and disclosure of government assistance’, prospectively to government loans that exist at the date of transition to IFRSs; and first-time adopters should not recognise the corresponding benefit of the government loan at a below-market rate of interest as a governmentgrant. |
January 1, 2013 |

Janaury 1, 2013 |
| Investment entities (amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 27) |
The amendments define ‘Investment Entities’ and their characteristics. The parent company that meets the definition of investment entities should measure its subsidiaries using fair value through profit of loss instead of consolidating them. |
January 1, 2014 |
| IFRIC 21, ‘Levies’ | The interpretation addresses the accounting for levies imposed by governments in accordance with legislation (other than income tax). A liability to pay a levy shall be recognised in accordance with IAS 37,‘Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets’. |
January 1, 2014 |
| Recoverable amount disclosures for non-financial assets (amendments to IAS 36) |
The amendments remove the requirement to disclose recoverable amount when a cash generating unit (CGU) contains goodwill or intangible assets with indefinite useful lives that were not impaired. |
January 1, 2014 |
| Novation of derivatives and continuation of hedge accounting (amendments to IAS 39) |
The amendment states that the novation of a hedging instrument would not be considered an expiration or termination giving rise to the discontinuation of hedge accounting when the hedging instrument that is being novated complies with specified criteria. |

November 19, 2013 (Not mandatory) |
| Services related contributions from employees or third-party (amendments to IAS 19) |

The Group is assessing the potential impact of the new standards, interpretations and amendments above and has not yet been able to reliably estimate their impact on the consolidated financial statements.
4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated.
(1) Compliance statement
-
A.These consolidated financial statements are the first year-end consolidated financial statements prepared by the Group in accordance with the “Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the FSC (collectively referred herein as the “IFRSs”).
-
B.In the preparation of the balance sheet as of January 1, 2012 (the Group’s date of transition to IFRSs) (“the opening IFRS balance sheet”), the Group has adjusted the amounts that were
~14~
reported in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with previous R.O.C. GAAP. Please refer to Note 15 for the impact of transitioning from R.O.C. GAAP to IFRSs on the Group’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows.
(2) Basis of preparation
-
A.Except for the following items, these consolidated financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention:
-
a) Financial assets and financial liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss.
-
b) Defined benefit liabilities recognised based on the net amount of pension fund assets plus unrecognised past service cost and unrecognised actuarial losses, and less unrecognised actuarial gains and present value of defined benefit obligation.
-
B.The preparation of financial statements in compliance with IFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 5.
(3) Basis of consolidation
-
A.Basis for preparation of consolidated financial statements:
-
a) All subsidiaries are included in the Group’s consolidated financial statements. Subsidiaries are all entities (including special purpose entities) over which the Group has the power to govern the financial and operating policies. In general, control is presumed to exist when the parent owns, directly or indirectly through subsidiaries, more than half of the voting power of an entity. The existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible have been considered when assessing whether the Group controls another entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to the Group. They are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.
-
b) Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains or losses on transactions between companies within the Group are eliminated. Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
-
c) Profit or loss and each component of other comprehensive income are attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests. Total comprehensive income is attributed to the owners of the parent and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
-
d) Changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in the parent losing control of the subsidiary (transactions with non-controlling interests) are accounted for as equity transactions, i.e. transactions with owners in their capacity as owners. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognised directly in equity.
~15~
- e) When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, the Group remeasures any investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value. Any difference between fair value and carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss. All amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the subsidiary are reclassified to profit or loss, on the same basis as would be required if the related assets or liabilities were disposed of. That is, when the Group loses control of a subsidiary, all gains or losses previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the subsidiary should be reclassified from equity to profit or loss, if such gains or losses would be reclassified to profit or loss when the related assets or liabilities are disposed of.

-
C.Subsidiaries not included in the consolidated financial statements: None.
-
D.Adjustments for subsidiaries with different balance sheet dates: None.
-
E.Nature and extent of the restrictions on fund remittance from subsidiaries to the parent company: None.
(4) Foreign currency translation
Items included in the financial statements of each of the Group’s entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the “functional currency”). The consolidated financial statements are presented in New Taiwan dollars, which is the Company’s functional and the Group’s presentation currency.
-
A.Foreign currency transactions and balances
-
a) Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions are recognised in profit or loss in the period in which they arise.
-
b) Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the period end are re-translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising upon re-translation at the balance sheet date are recognised in profit or loss.
-
c) Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at fair value through profit or loss are re-translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date; their translation differences are recognised in profit or loss as part of the fair value gain or loss. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies held at fair value through other comprehensive income are re-translated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date; their translation differences are recognised in other comprehensive income. However, non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are not measured at fair value are translated using the historical exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions.
-
d) All foreign exchange gains and losses based on the nature of those transactions are presented in the statement of comprehensive income within ‘other gains and losses’.
-
B.Translation of foreign operations
-
a) The operating results and financial position of all the group entities, affiliate companies and jointly controlled entities that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:
-
i. Assets and liabilities for each balance sheet presented are translated at the closing exchange rate at the date of that balance sheet;
-
ii. Income and expenses for each statement of comprehensive income are translated at average exchange rates of that period; and
-
iii. All resulting exchange differences are recognised in other comprehensive income.
-
~19~
-
b) When a foreign operation is partially disposed of or sold to the affiliate companies and jointly controlled entities, exchange differences that were recorded in other comprehensive income are proportionately reclassified to profit or loss as part of the gain or loss on sale. However even if the Group still retains partial interest in the former foreign subsidiary, associate or jointly controlled entity after losing control of the former foreign subsidiary, losing significant influence over the former foreign associate, or losing joint control of the former jointly controlled entity, such transactions should be accounted for as disposal of all interest in these foreign operations.
-
c) When the foreign operation partially disposed of or sold is a subsidiary, cumulative exchange differences that were recorded in other comprehensive income are proportionately transferred to the non-controlling interest in this foreign operation. In addition, even if the Group still retains partial interest in the former foreign subsidiary after losing control of the former foreign subsidiary, losing significant influence over the former foreign associate, such transactions should be accounted for as disposal of all interest in these foreign operations.
-
d) Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a foreign entity are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign entity and translated at the closing exchange rates at the balance sheet date.
(5) Classification of current and non-current items
-
A.Assets that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current assets; otherwise they are classified as non-current assets:
-
a) Assets arising from operating activities that are expected to be realised, or are intended to be sold or consumed within the normal operating cycle;
-
b) Assets held mainly for trading purposes;
-
c) Assets that are expected to be realised within twelve months from the balance sheet date;
-
d) Cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash and cash equivalents and those that are to be exchanged or used to pay off liabilities more than twelve months after the balance sheet date.
-
B.Liabilities that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current liabilities; otherwise they are classified as non-current liabilities:
-
a) Liabilities that are expected to be paid off within the normal operating cycle;
-
b) Liabilities arising mainly from trading activities;
-
c) Liabilities that are to be paid off within twelve months from the balance sheet date;
-
d) Liabilities for which the repayment date cannot be extended unconditionally to more than twelve months after the balance sheet date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments do not affect its classification.
(6) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
- A.Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are financial assets held for trading or financial
~20~
assets designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition. Financial assets are classified in this category of held for trading if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short-term. Derivatives are also categorized as financial assets held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Financial assets that meet one of the following criteria are designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition:
- a) Hybrid contracts;
- b) They eliminate or significantly reduce a measurement or recognition inconsistency; or
- c) They are managed and their performance is evaluated on a fair value basis, in accordance with a documented risk management or investment strategy.
-
B.On a regular way purchase or sale basis, financial assets held for trading are recognised and derecognised using settlement date accounting.
-
C.Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value. Related transaction costs are expensed in profit or loss. These financial assets are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value, and any changes in the fair value of these financial assets are recognised in profit or loss.
-
(7) Accounts receivable
-
Accounts receivable are loans and receivables originated by the entity. They are created by the entity by selling goods or providing services to customers in the ordinary course of business. Accounts receivable are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. However, for the short-term accounts receivable which bear no interest, the Group subsequently measures it at invoice amount, considering the discounting effects would not be significant.
-
(8) Impairment of financial assets
-
A.The Group assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (a ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or events) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.
-
B.The criteria that the Group uses to determine whether there is objective evidence of an impairment loss is as follows:
-
a) Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or debtor;
-
b) A breach of contract, such as a default or delinquency in interest or principal payments;
-
c) The Group, for economic or legal reasons relating to the borrower’s financial difficulty, granted the borrower a concession that a lender would not otherwise consider;
-
d) It becomes probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation;
-
e) The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset because of financial difficulties;
-
f) Observable data indicating that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a group of financial assets since the initial recognition of those assets, although the
-
~21~
decrease cannot yet be identified with the individual financial asset in the group, including adverse changes in the payment status of borrowers in the group or national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on the assets in the group;
-
g) Information about significant changes with an adverse effect that have taken place in the technology, market, economic or legal environment in which the issuer operates, and indicates that the cost of the investment in the equity instrument may not be recovered; or
-
h) A significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument below its cost.
-
C.When the Group assesses that there has been objective evidence of impairment and an impairment loss has occurred, accounting for impairment is made according to the amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at current market return rate of similar financial asset, and is recognised in profit or loss. Impairment loss recognised for this category shall not be reversed subsequently. Impairment loss is recognised by adjusting the carrying amount of the asset through the use of an impairment allowance account.
(9) Derecognition of financial assets
The Group derecognises a financial asset when one of the following conditions is met:
-
A. The contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset expire.
-
B.The contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset have been transferred and the Group has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset.
-
C.The Group neither retains nor transfers substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset; however, it has not retained control of the financial asset.
-
(10) Leases (lessor)
Lease income from an operating lease (net of any incentives given to the lessee) is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
-
(11) Inventories
-
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost is determined using the weighted-average method. The cost of finished goods and work-in-process comprises raw materials, direct labour, other direct costs and related production overheads (allocated based on normal operating capacity). It excludes borrowing costs. The item-by-item approach is used in applying the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost of completion and applicable variable selling expenses.
(12) Investments accounted for using equity method / associates
- A.Associates are all entities over which the Group has significant influence but not control. In general, it is presumed that the investor has significant influence, if an investor holds, directly or indirectly 20 percent or more of the voting power of the investee. Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are initially recognised at cost.
~22~
-
B.The Group’s share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in profit or loss, and its share of post-acquisition movements in other comprehensive income is recognised in other comprehensive income. When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Group does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.
-
C.When changes in an associate’s equity that are not recognised in profit or loss or other comprehensive income of the associate and such changes not affecting the Group’s ownership percentage of the associate, the Group recognises the Group’s share of change in equity of the associate in ‘capital surplus’ in proportion to its ownership.
-
D.Unrealised gains on transactions between the Group and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest in the associates. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Accounting policies of associates have been adjusted where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the Group.
-
E.In the case that an associate issues new shares and the Group does not subscribe or acquire new shares proportionately, which results in a change in the Group’s ownership percentage of the associate but maintains significant influence on the associate, then ‘capital surplus’ and ‘investments accounted for under the equity method’ shall be adjusted for the increase or decrease of its share of equity interest. If the above condition causes a decrease in the Group’s ownership percentage of the associate, in addition to the above adjustment, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss proportionately on the same basis as would be required if the relevant assets or liabilities were disposed of.
-
F.Upon loss of significant influence over an associate, the Group remeasures any investment retained in the former associate at its fair value. Any difference between fair value and carrying amount is recognised in profit or loss.
-
G.When the Group disposes its investment in an associate, if it loses significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate, are reclassified to profit or loss, on the same basis as would be required if the relevant assets or liabilities were disposed of. If it still retains significant influence over this associate, then the amounts previously recognised in other comprehensive income in relation to the associate are reclassified to profit or loss proportionately in accordance with the aforementioned approach.
-
H.When the Group disposes its investment in an associate, if it loses significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognised as capital surplus in relation to the associate are transferred to profit or loss. If it still retains significant influence over this associate, then the amounts previously recognised as capital surplus in relation to the associate are transferred to
~23~
profit or loss proportionately.
(13) Property, plant and equipment
-
A.Property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost. Borrowing costs incurred during the construction period are capitalised.
-
B.Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Group and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognised. All other repairs and maintenance are charged to profit or loss during the financial period in which they are incurred.
-
C.Land is not depreciated. Other property, plant and equipment apply cost model and are depreciated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost over their estimated useful lives.
-
D The assets’ residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each balance sheet date. If expectations for the assets’ residual values and useful lives differ from previous estimates or the patterns of consumption of the assets’ future economic benefits embodied in the assets have changed significantly, any change is accounted for as a change in estimate under IAS 8, ‘Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors’, from the date of the change.
The estimated useful lives of property, plant and equipment are as follows:
Buildings 3 years ~ 40 years Machinery 3 years ~ 10 years Test equipment 1 year ~ 10 years Other equipment 1 year ~ 11 years
(14) Intangible assets
- Intangible assets consist of software costs and are amortised on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 2 to 3 years.
(15) Impairment of non-financial assets
- The Group assesses at each balance sheet date the recoverable amounts of those assets where there is an indication that they are impaired. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell or value in use. When the circumstances or reasons for recognising impairment loss for an asset in prior years no longer exist, the impairment loss shall be reversed to the extent of the loss previously recognised in profit or loss. However, impairment loss of goodwill previously recognised in profit or loss shall not be reversed in the following years.
(16) Borrowings
- A.Borrowings are recognised initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in profit or loss over the period of the
~24~
borrowings using the effective interest method.
- B.Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognised as transaction costs of the loan to the extent that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down. In this case, the fee is deferred until the draw-down occurs. To the extent there is no evidence that it is probable that some or all of the facility will be drawn down, the fee is capitalised as a pre-payment for liquidity services and amortised over the period of the facility to which it relates.
(17) Notes and accounts payable
Notes and accounts payable are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. They are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. However, short-term accounts payable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at the initial invoice amount as effect of the discounting is immaterial.
- (18) Provisions
Provisions (including warranties and decommissioning liabilities) are recognised when the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, and it is probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated. Provisions are measured at the present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation on the balance sheet date, which is discounted using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the obligation. When discounting is used, the increase in the provision due to passage of time is recognised as interest expense. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses.
(19) Employee benefits
- A.Short-term employee benefits
Short-term employee benefits are measured at the undiscounted amount of the benefits expected to be paid in respect of service rendered by employees in a period and should be recognised as expenses in that period when the employees render service.
-
B.Pensions
-
a) Defined contribution plans
- For defined contribution plans, the contributions are recognised as pension expenses when they are due on an accrual basis. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent of a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments.
-
b) Defined benefit plans
- i. Net obligation under a defined benefit plan is defined as the present value of an amount of pension benefits that employees will receive on retirement for their services with the Group in current period or prior periods. The liability recognised in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present value of the defined benefit
~25~
obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets, together with adjustments for unrecognised past service costs. The defined benefit net obligation is calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method. The rate used to discount is determined by using interest rates of high-quality corporate bonds that are denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid, and that have terms to maturity approximating to the terms of the related pension liability; when there is no deep market in high-quality corporate bonds, the Group uses interest rates of government bonds (at the balance sheet date) instead.
-
ii. Actuarial gains and losses arising on defined benefit plans are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise.
-
iii. Past service costs are recognised immediately in profit or loss if vested immediately; if not, the past service costs are amortised on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.
-
C.Termination benefits
Termination benefits are employee benefits provided in exchange for the termination of employment as a result from either the Group’s decision to terminate an employee’s employment before the normal retirement date, or an employee’s decision to accept an offer of redundancy benefits in exchange for the termination of employment. The Group recognises termination benefits when it is demonstrably committed to a termination, when it has a detailed formal plan to terminate the employment of current employees and when it can no longer withdraw the plan. In the case of an offer made by the Group to encourage voluntary termination of employment, the termination benefits are recognised as expenses only when it is probable that the employees are expected to accept the offer and the number of the employees taking the offer can be reliably estimated. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after balance sheet date are discounted to their present value.
-
D.Employees’ bonus and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration
- Employees’ bonus and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration are recognised as expenses and liabilities, provided that such recognition is required under legal or constructive obligation and those amounts can be reliably estimated. However, if the accrued amounts for employees’ bonus and directors’ and supervisors’ remuneration are different from the actual distributed amounts as resolved by the stockholders at their stockholders’ meeting subsequently, the differences should be recognised based on the accounting for changes in estimates. The Group calculates the number of shares of employees’ stock bonus based on the fair value per share at the previous day of the stockholders’ meeting held in the year following the financial reporting year, and after taking into account the effects of ex-rights and ex-dividends.
-
(20) Employee share based payment
-
For the equity-settled share-based payment arrangements, the employee services received are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments granted at the grant date, and are recognised as compensation cost over the vesting period, with a corresponding adjustment to equity. The fair
~26~
value of the equity instruments granted shall reflect the impact of market vesting conditions and non-market vesting conditions. Compensation cost is subject to adjustment based on the service conditions that are expected to be satisfied and the estimates of the number of equity instruments that are expected to vest under the non-market vesting conditions at each balance sheet date. And ultimately, the amount of compensation cost recognised is based on the number of equity instruments that eventually vest.
-
(21) Income tax
-
A.The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or items recognised directly in equity, in which cases the tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or equity.
-
B.The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of the tax laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date in the countries where the Company and its subsidiaries operate and generate taxable income. Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in accordance with applicable tax regulations. It establishes provisions where appropriate based on the amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities. An additional 10% tax is levied on the unappropriated retained earnings and is recorded as income tax expense in the year the stockholders resolve to retain the earnings.
-
C.Deferred income tax is recognised, using the balance sheet liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the consolidated balance sheet. However, the deferred income tax is not accounted for if it arises from initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred income tax is provided on temporary differences arising on investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the timing of the reversal of the temporary difference is controlled by the Group and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred income tax is determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted or substantially enacted by the balance sheet date and are expected to apply when the related deferred income tax asset is realised or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
-
D.Deferred income tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilised. At each balance sheet date, unrecognised and recognised deferred income tax assets are reassessed.
-
E.Current income tax assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are offset on the balance sheet when the entity has the legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets against current tax liabilities and they are
~27~
levied by the same taxation authority on either the same entity or different entities that intend to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
-
F.A deferred tax asset shall be recognised for the carryforward of unused tax credits resulting from related tax relief under Income Tax Act to the extent that it is possible that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax credits can be utilised.
-
(22) Share capital
-
A.Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or stock options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds.
-
B.When the Company repurchases the Company’s equity share capital that has been issued, the consideration paid, including any directly attributable incremental costs (net of income taxes) is deducted from equity attributable to the Company’s equity holders. When such shares are subsequently reissued, the difference between their book value and any consideration received, net of any directly attributable incremental transaction costs and the related income tax effects, is included in equity attributable to the Company’s equity holders.
-
(23) Dividends
-
Dividends are recorded in the Company’s financial statements in the period in which they are approved by the Company’s shareholders. Cash dividends are recorded as liabilities; stock dividends are recorded as stock dividends to be distributed and are reclassified to ordinary shares the effective date of new shares issuance.
-
(24) Revenue recognition
-
A.Sales of goods
-
a) The Group manufactures and sells digital image technology application products. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable taking into account value-added tax, returns, rebates and discounts for the sale of goods to external customers in the ordinary course of the Group’s activities. Revenue arising from the sales of goods is recognised when the Group has delivered the goods to the customer, the amount of sales revenue can be measured reliably and it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity. The delivery of goods is completed when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, the Group retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold, and the customer has accepted the goods based on the sales contract or there is objective evidence showing that all acceptance provisions have been satisfied.
-
b) The Group offers customers volume discounts and right of return for defective products. The Group estimates such discounts and returns based on historical experience. Provisions for such liabilities are recorded when the sales are recognised. The volume discounts are estimated based on the anticipated annual sales quantities.
-
~28~
B.Sales of services
- The Group provides technology services. Revenue from delivering services is recognised under the percentage-of-completion method when the outcome of services provided can be estimated reliably. The stage of completion of a service contract is measured by the percentage of the actual services performed as of the financial reporting date to the total services to be performed. If the outcome of a service contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract revenue should be recognised only to the extent that contract costs incurred are likely to be recoverable.
-
C.A sale agreement comprising of multiple components
- A sale agreement offered by the Group might comprise of multiple components, including sale of goods and subsequent repair services, etc. If a sale agreement comprises of multiple identifiable components, the fair value of the consideration received or receivable in respect of the sale agreement shall be allocated between those components based on the relative fair value of each component. The amount of proceeds allocated to each component is recognised as revenue in profit or loss following the revenue recognition criteria applied to each component. The fair value of each component is determined by its market value when it is sold separately.
-
(25) Operating segments
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments.
5. CRITICALACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND KEY SOURCES OF
ASSUMPTION UNCERTAINTY
The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make critical judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies and make critical assumptions and estimates concerning future events. Judgements and estimates are continually evaluated and adjusted based on historical experience and other factors. The information is addressed below:
-
(1) Critical judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies: None.
-
(2) Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
-
The Group makes estimates and assumptions based on the expectation of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances at the end of the reporting period. The resulting accounting estimates might be different from the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are addressed below:
-
A.Revenue recognition
- In principle, sales revenues are recognised when the earning process is completed. The Group estimates discounts and returns based on historical results and other known factors. Provisions for such liabilities are recorded as a deduction item to sales revenues when the sales are recognised. The Group reassesses the reasonableness of estimates of discounts and returns
~29~
periodically.
-
B.Impairment assessment of tangible and intangible assets (excluding goodwill) The Group assesses impairment based on its subjective judgement and determines the separate cash flows of a specific group of assets, useful lives of assets and the future possible income and expenses arising from the assets depending on how assets are utilised and industry characteristics. Any changes of economic circumstances or estimates due to the change of Group strategy might cause material impairment on assets in the future.
-
C.Impairment assessment of investments accounted for using the equity method The Group assesses the impairment of an investment accounted for under the equity method as soon as there any indication that it might have been impaired and its carrying amount cannot be recoverable. The Group assesses the recoverable amounts of an investment accounted for under the equity method based on the present value of expected cash dividends receivable from the investee and expected future cash flows from the disposal of the investee, and analyzes the reasonableness of related assumptions.
-
D.Realisability of deferred income tax assets
-
Deferred income tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Assessment of the realisability of deferred income tax assets involves critical accounting judgements and estimates of the management, including the assumptions of expected future sales revenue growth rate and profit rate, tax exempt duration, available tax credits, tax planning, etc. Any variations in global economic environment, industry environment, and laws and regulations might cause material adjustments to deferred income tax assets.
-
As of December 31, 2013, the Group recognised deferred income tax assets amounting to $298,633.
-
E.Evaluation of inventories
-
As inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, the Group must determine the net realisable value of inventories on balance sheet date using judgements and estimates. Due to the rapid technology innovation, the Group evaluates the amounts of normal inventory comsumption, obsolete inventories or inventories without market selling value on balance sheet date, and writes down the cost of inventories to the net realisable value. Such an evaluation of inventories is principally based on the demand for the products within the specified period in the future. Therefore, there might be material changes to the evaluation.
-
As of December 31, 2013, the carrying amount of inventories was $1,342,629.
-
F.Calculation of accrued pension obligations
-
When calculating the present value of defined pension obligations, the Group must apply judgements and estimates to determine the actuarial assumptions on balance sheet date, including discount rates and expected rate of return on plan assets. Any changes in these assumptions could significantly impact the carrying amount of defined pension obligations.
~30~
As of December 31, 2013, the carrying amount of accrued pension obligations was $19,200.

A.The Group transacts with a variety of financial institutions all with high credit quality to disperse credit risk, so it expects that the probability of counterparty default is remote. The Group’s maximum exposure to credit risk at balance sheet date is the carrying amount of all cash and cash equivalents.
-
B.The Group has no cash and cash equivalents pledged to others.

A.As the Group’s investment in unlisted stocks are not traded in an active market, and no sufficient industry information of companies similar to these stocks financial information can be obtained, the fair value of the investment in unlisted stocks cannot be measured reliably. The Group classified those stocks as ‘financial assets measured at cost’.
- B.As of December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, no financial assets measured at cost held by the Group were pledged to others.

Interest rate risk
Interest risk arises from the changes of market interest rate causing fluctuation in financial instruments’ fair value or cash received and paid in the future.
The Group is exposed mainly to floating interest rate borrowings; however, the Group raised short-term borrowings at fixed rates durning the year of 2013, and thus had no significant cash flow interest rate risk.
Price risk
The Group is exposed to price risk because of investments held by the Group. The Group sets limits to control the transaction volume and stop-loss amount to reduce it’s market risk.
-
b) Credit risk
-
i. Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Group arising from default by the clients or counterparties of financial instruments on the contract obligations. According to the Group’s credit policy, each local entity in the Group is responsible for managing and analysing the credit risk for each of their new clients before standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. Internal risk control assesses the credit quality of the customers, taking into account their financial position, past experience and other factors. Individual risk limits are set based on internal or external ratings, the utilisation of credit limits is regularly monitored. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to customers, including outstanding receivables and committed transactions.
-
ii No credit limits were exceeded during the reporting periods, and management does not expect any significant losses from non-performance by these counterparties.
-
iii.The individual analysis of financial assets that had been impaired is provided in the statement for each type of financial assets in Note 6.
-
iv.The credit quality information of financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired is provided in the statement in Note 6(4).
-
c) Liquidity risk
-
i. Cash flow forecasting is performed in the operating entities of the Group and aggregated by Group treasury. Group treasury monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs while maintaining sufficient headroom on its undrawn committed borrowing facilities. Such forecasting takes into consideration the Group’s debt financing plans, compliance with internal balance sheet ratio targets.
-
ii. Surplus cash held by the operating entities over and above balance required for working capital management are transferred to the Group treasury. Group treasury invests surplus cash in interest bearing current accounts, time deposits and marketable securities,
~58~
-
choosing instruments with appropriate maturities or sufficient liquidity to provide sufficient head-room as determined by the above-mentioned forecasts.
-
iii. The table below analyses the Group’s non-derivative financial liabilities into relevant maturity groupings based on the remaining period at the balance sheet date to the contractual maturity date for non-derivative financial liabilities. The amounts disclosed in the table are the contractual undiscounted cash flows.

15. INITIALAPPLICATION OF IFRSs
These consolidated financial statements are the first year-end consolidated financial statements prepared by the Group in accordance with the IFRSs. The Group has adjusted the amounts as appropriate that are reported in the previous R.O.C. GAAP consolidated financial statements to those amounts that should be presented under IFRSs in the preparation of the opening IFRS balance sheet. Information about exemptions elected by the Group, exceptions to the retrospective application of IFRSs in relation to initial application of IFRSs, and how it affects the Group’s financial position, operating results and cash flows in transition from R.O.C. GAAP to the IFRSs is set out below:
(1) Exemptions elected by the Group

The Group has elected not to apply the requirements in IFRS 3, ‘Business Combinations’, retrospectively to business combinations that occurred prior to the date of transition to IFRSs (“the transition date”).

(a) In accordance with R.O.C. GAAP, a deferred tax asset or liability should, according to the classification of its related asset or liability, be classified as current or noncurrent. However, a deferred tax asset or liability that is not related to an asset or liability for financial reporting should be classified as current or noncurrent according to the expected time period to realize or settle a deferred tax asset or liability. However, under IAS 1, “Presentation of Financial Statements”, an entity should not classify a deferred tax asset or liability as current. Accordingly, the Group should reclassify the account “deferred income tax assets” from current to non-current at the transition date.
-
(b) The discount rate used to calculate pensions shall be determined with reference to the factors specified in R.O.C. SFAS 18, paragraph 23. However, IAS 19, “Employee Benefits”, requires an entity to determine the rate used to discount employee benefits with reference to market yields on high quality corporate bonds that match the currency
~72~
at the end day of the reporting period and duration of its pension plan; when there is no deep market in corporate bonds, an entity is required to use market yields on government bonds (at the end day of the reporting period) instead. Besides, in accordance with current accounting standards in the R.O.C., the unrecognised transitional net benefit obligation should be amortised on a straight-line basis over the average remaining service period of employees still in service and expected to receive benefits. However, in accordance with IAS 19, “Employee Benefits”, the unrecognised transitional net benefit obligation should be recognised as an expense immediately at the date of adoption. Due to the above differences and in order to eliminate the difference in employee benefits upon adoption of IFRS, the Group increased the accrued pension liabilities by $14,718 and simultaneously decreased retained earnings by $14,718 at the transition date.
-
(c) In accordance with current accounting standards in the R.O.C., if an investee company issues new shares and original shareholders do not purchase or acquire new shares proportionately, but the investor company does not lose its significant influence over the investee company, the investment percentage, and therefore the equity in net assets for the investment that an investor company has invested, will be changed. Such difference shall be used to adjust the “Additional paid-in capital” and the “Long-term equity investments” accounts. However, in accordance with IAS 28, “Investments in Associates”, increases in investment percentage is accounted for as an acquisition of investment; conversely, decreases in investment percentage is accounted for as a disposal of investment and any related disposal gain or loss is recognised. Accordingly, the Group decreased the additional paid-in capital from investee under the equity method by $13,187 and simultaneously increased the retained earnings by $13,187 at the transition date.
-
(d) The Group elected to use the exemption of the cumulative translation differences relating to the investment in a foreign operation. The subsequent changes in foreign exchange rate are treated in accordance with IAS 21, “Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”. Therefore, the Group decreased the cumulative translation differences and increased retained earnings both by $143,987 at the transition date.

Explanation for adjustments:
(a) In accordance with R.O.C. GAAP, a deferred tax asset or liability should, according to the classification of its related asset or liability, be classified as current or noncurrent. However, a deferred tax asset or liability that is not related to an asset or liability for financial reporting should be classified as current or noncurrent according to the expected time period to realize or settle a deferred tax asset or liability. However, under IAS 1, “Presentation of Financial Statements”, an entity should not classify a deferred tax asset or liability as current. Accordingly, the Group should reclassify the account “deferred
~75~

(b) The discount rate used to calculate pensions shall be determined with reference to the factors specified in R.O.C. SFAS 18, paragraph 23. However, IAS 19, “Employee Benefits”, requires an entity to determine the rate used to discount employee benefits with reference to market yields on high quality corporate bonds that match the currency at the end day of the reporting period and duration of its pension plan; when there is no deep market in corporate bonds, an entity is required to use market yields on government bonds (at the end day of the reporting period) instead.

However, in accordance with IAS 19, “Employee Benefits”, the unrecognised transitional net benefit obligation should be recognised as an expense immediately at the date of adoption. Due to the above differences and in order to eliminate the difference in employee benefits upon adoption of IFRS, the Group increased the accrued pension liabilities by $14,718 and simultaneously decreased retained earnings by $14,718 at the transition date. In accordance with current accounting standards in R.O.C., actuarial pension gain or loss of the Group is recognised in net pension cost of current period using the “corridor” method. However, IAS 19, “Employee Benefits”, requires that actuarial pension gain or loss should be recognised immediately in other comprehensive income. Accordingly, the actuarial pension gain or loss of the Group was recognised in other comprehensive income. Also, the Group decreased the retained earnings by $2,484 and simultaneously increased the accrued pension liabilities by $2,484.
-
(c) In accordance with current accounting standards in the R.O.C., if an investee company issues new shares and original shareholders do not purchase or acquire new shares proportionately, but the investor company does not lose its significant influence over the investee company, the investment percentage, and therefore the equity in net assets for the investment that an investor company has invested, will be changed. Such difference shall be used to adjust the “Additional paid-in capital” and the “Long-term equity investments” accounts. However, in accordance with IAS 28, “Investments in Associates”, increases in investment percentage is accounted for as an acquisition of investment; conversely, decreases in investment percentage is accounted for as a disposal of investment and any related disposal gain or loss is recognised. Accordingly, the Company reduced the additional paid-in capital from investee under the equity method by $13,187 and simultaneously increased the retained earnings by $13,187 at the transition date. In accordance with IAS 27, “Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements”, if an investee company issues new shares and original shareholders do not purchase or acquire
~76~
new shares proportionately, in which an investor company does not lose control over the subsidiary, and therefore the equity in net assets for the investment that an investor company has invested, will be changed. Such difference shall be used to adjust the “Additional paid-in capital” and the “Long-term equity investments” accounts. The Company’s subsidiary issued new shares this period and therefore the equity in net assets for the investment that an investor company has invested decreased. Accordingly, the Group decreased the retained earnings by $2,643, and simultaneously increased the additional paid-in capital from investee under equity method by $2,643.
- (d) The Group elected to use the exemption of the cumulative translation differences relating to the investment in a foreign operation. The subsequent changes in foreign exchange rate are treated in accordance with IAS 21, “Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates”. Therefore, the Group decreased the cumulative translation differences and increased retained earnings both by $143,987 at the transition date.
