ALTEK CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND

REVIEW REPORT OF INDEPENDENT

ACCOUNTANTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 AND 2014


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. In the event of any discrepancy between the English version and the original Chinese version or any differences in the interpretation of the two versions, the Chinese-language auditors’ report and financial statements shall prevail.

REVIEW REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE

PWCR15000095 (In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars)

To Altek Corporation

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Altek Corporation and subsidiaries as of September 30, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three-month and nine-month periods then ended, as well as the consolidated statements of changes in equity and of cash flows for the nine-month periods then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to issue a conclusion on these financial statements based on our reviews.

Except as discussed in the following paragraph, we conducted our reviews in accordance with the Statement of Auditing Standards No. 36, “Engagements to Review Financial Statements” in the Republic of China. A review consists primarily of inquiries of company personnel and analytical procedures applied to financial data. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

As described in Note 4(3), except for the financial statements of major subsidiaries-Altek International Investment Co., Ltd. and its subsidiary-Altek (Kunshan) Co., Ltd., which were consolidated based on their reviewed financial statements, other insignificant subsidiaries were consolidated based on their unreviewed financial statements as of and for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. As of September 30, 2015 and 2014, total assets of these insignificant subsidiaries amounted to $2,637,543 and $2,335,761, representing 17% and 14% of the consolidated total assets, respectively, and total liabilities of these insignificant subsidiaries amounted to $559,102 and $366,308, respresenting 9% and 5% of the consolidated total liabilities, respectively, and their total comprehensive income (loss) amounted to ($18,723), ($21,356), $31,686 and ($122,274), constituting 13%, 17%, 29% and 25% of the consolidated total comprehensive income (loss) for the three-month and nine-month periods then ended, respectively. In addition, as described in Note 6(6) to the

~1~

consolidated financial statements, the financial statements of investments accounted for under the equity method were not reviewed by independent accountants. Equity investments in these investee companies amounted to $166,269 and $262,834 as of September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and their related investment loss amounted to $5,655, $42,867, $10,739 and $70,764 for the three-month and nine-month periods then ended, respectively. These amounts were based solely on their unreviewed financial statements.

Based on our reviews, except for the effect of such adjustments, if any, as might have been determined to be necessary had the financial statements of certain subsidiaries and investee companies been reviewed by independent accountants as described in the preceding paragraph, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated financial statements referred to in the first paragraph in order for them to be in conformity with the “Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers” and IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting”, as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.

ALTEK CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE NINE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 AND 2014

(Expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars, unless stated otherwise) (Unaudited)

1. HISTORY AND ORGANIZATION

Altek Corporation (the “Company”) was incorporated as a company limited by shares under the provisions of the Company Law of the Republic of China (R.O.C.). The Company and its subsidiaries (collectively referred herein as the “Group”) are primarily engaged in the development, manufacturing and sale of digital image technology application, and related export and import trade.

The Company was listed in the Taiwan Stock Exchange on December 24, 2002, as approved by the Tai-Tz (91) Letter No. 024976 of the former Securities and Futures Commission, Ministry of Finance, R.O.C., dated September 27, 2002.

2. THE DATE OF AUTHORIZATION FOR ISSUANCE OF THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND PROCEDURES FOR AUTHORIZATION

These consolidated financial statements were authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors on November 13, 2015.

3. APPLICATION OF NEW STANDARDS, AMENDMENTS AND INTERPRETATIONS

  • (1) Effect of the adoption of new issuances of or amendments to International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission (“FSC”)

  • According to Financial-Supervisory-Securities-Auditing No. 1030010325 issued by FSC on April 3, 2014, commencing 2015, companies with shares listed on the TWSE or traded on the Taipei Exchange or Emerging Stock Market shall adopt the 2013 version of IFRS (not including IFRS 9, ‘Financial instruments’) as endorsed by the FSC and Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers effective January 1, 2015 (collectively referred herein as “the 2013 version of IFRS”) in preparing the consolidated financial statements. The impact of adopting the 2013 version of IFRS is listed below:

  • A. IAS 19 , ‘Employee benefits’

    • The revised standard makes amendments that net interest amount, calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit asset or liability, replaces the finance charge and expected return on plan assets. The revised standard eliminates the accounting policy choice that the actuarial gains and losses could be recognised based on corridor approach or recognised in profit or loss. The revised standard requires that the actuarial gains and losses can only be recognised immediately in other comprehensive income when incurred. Past service cost will be recognised immediately in the period incurred and will no longer be amortised using

~10~

straight-line basis over the average period until the benefits become vested. An entity is required to recognise termination benefits at the earlier of when the entity can no longer withdraw an offer of those benefits and when it recognises any related restructuring costs, rather than when the entity is demonstrably committed to a termination.

  • B. IAS 1, ‘Presentation of financial statements’

The amendment requires entities to separate items presented in OCI classified by nature into two groups on the basis of whether they are potentially reclassified to profit or loss subsequently when specific conditions are met. If the items are presented before tax then the tax related to each of the two groups of OCI items (those that might be reclassified and those that will not be reclassified) must be shown separately. Accordingly, the Group will adjust its presentation of the statement of comprehensive income.

  • C. IFRS 12, ‘Disclosure of interests in other entities’

The standard integrates the disclosure requirements for subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and unconsolidated structured entities. Also, the Group will disclose additional information about its interests in consolidated entities and unconsolidated entities accordingly.

  • D. IFRS 13, ‘Fair value measurement’

The standard defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The standard sets out a framework for measuring fair value using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability; for non-financial assets, fair value is determined based on the highest and best use of the asset. Also, the standard requires disclosures about fair value measurements. Based on the Group’s assessment, the adoption of the standard has no significant impact on its consolidated financial statements, and the Group will disclose additional information about fair value measurements accordingly.

(2) Effect of new issuances of or amendments to IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC but not yet adopted by

the Group

None.

Ltd., Altek Semiconductor (Cayman) Co., Ltd., Altek Optical Technology (Cayman) Co., Ltd., which Altek International Investment Co., Ltd. invests other subsidiaries through.

Note 2: Altek Biotechnology Corporation was established on December 11, 2014.

Note 3: As the subsidiaries do not meet the definition of significant subsidiaries, their financial statements as of September 30, 2015 and 2014 were not reviewed by independent accountants.

~14~

  • C.Subsidiaries not included in the consolidated financial statements: None.

  • D.Adjustments for subsidiaries with different balance sheet dates: None.

  • E.Material restrictions: None.

  • F.Subsidiaries that have non-controlling interests that are material to the Group: None.

(4) Employee benefits

Pension cost for the interim period is calculated on a year-to-date basis by using the pension cost rate derived from the actuarial valuation at the end of the prior financial year, adjusted for significant market fluctuations since that time and for significant curtailments, settlements, or other significant one-off events. Also, the related information is disclosed accordingly.

(5) Income tax

The interim period income tax expense is recognised based on the estimated average annual effective income tax rate expected for the full financial year applied to the pretax income of the interim period, and the related information is disclosed accordingly.

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. Assumptions and estimates may differ from the actual results and are continually evaluated and adjusted based on historical experience and other factors. Such assumptions and estimates have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year; and the related information is addressed below:

  • (1) Critical judgements in applying the Group’s accounting policies: None.

(2) Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:

  • A.Impairment assessment of investments accounted for using equity method

  • The Group assesses the impairment of an investment accounted for using equity method as soon as there is any indication that it might have been impaired and its carrying amount may not 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 analyses the reasonableness of related assumptions.

  • As of September 30, 2015, the Group’s investments accounted for under the equity method, net of impairment loss, amounted to $166,269.

  • B.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

~15~

consumption, 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 September 30, 2015, the carrying amount of inventories was $1,407,172.

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. Accordingly, the Group classified those stocks as ‘financial assets measured at cost’.

B. No impairment loss was recognised for the financial assets measured at cost for the three-month

or nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

  • C.As of September 30, 2015, December 31, 2014 and September 30, 2014, no financial assets measured at cost held by the Group were pledged to others.

9. SIGNIFICANT CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND UNRECOGNISED CONTRACT

COMMITMENTS

(1) Contingencies

The GUC (General Unsecured Creditor Trustee) of Eastman Kodak Company (hereunder ‘Kodak’) filed a lawsuit against the Company in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York, asserting certain payments in 49.2 million transactions prior to Kodak’s bankruptcy were out of ordinary course of business. The Company vigorously disputed GUC’s claim, and insists that the transactions had always been made in the ordinary course of business with Kodak.

~39~

According to the press release, GUC has sued over 700 of Kodak’s suppliers, trying to require marginal settlement fees from the suppliers, as it is a regular ploy of US bankruptcy lawyers in bankruptcy cases. For the protection of shareholders’ interests, the Company did not accept GUC’s settlement proposal. The GUC’s assertion has now been heard by the court, and this case does not have a significant impact on the Company’s business and financial performance.

10. SIGNIFICANT DISASTER LOSS

None.

11. SIGNIFICANT EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE

On November 13, 2015, the Board of Directors of the Company has resolved to issue employee restricted stock of 2.5 million shares for no consideration with a par value of NT$10 per share, amounting to NT$25 million.

12. OTHERS

(1) Capital risk management

The Group’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the amount of dividends, return capital or issue new shares to achieve the optimal capital structure.

(2) Financial instruments

  • A. Fair value information of financial instruments

The carrying amounts of financial instruments (including cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable, accounts receivable, other receivables, refundable deposits (shown as non-current assets), short-term borrowings, notes payable, accounts payable, other payables, and guarantee deposits received (shown as non-current liabilities)) are approximate to their fair value. The fair value information of financial instruments measured at fair value is provided in Note 12(3).

  • B.Financial risk management policies

  • a) The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: market risk (including foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management programme focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the Group’s financial position and financial performance.

  • b) Risk management is carried out by a central treasury department (Group treasury) under policies approved by the Board of Directors. Group treasury identifies, evaluates and hedges financial risks in close cooperation with the Group’s operating units, as well as provides written principles for overall risk management and policies covering specific areas and matters, such as foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, use of derivative

~40~

financial instruments and non-derivative financial instruments, and investment of excess liquidity.

  • C.Significant financial risks and degrees of financial risks

  • a) Market risk

    • Foreign exchange risk

    • i.The Group operates internationally and is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to the USD. Foreign exchange risk arises from future commercial transactions, recognised assets and liabilities and net investments in foreign operations.

    • ii.Management has set up a policy to require that group companies hedge their entire foreign exchange risk exposure with Group treasury. Foreign exchange risk arises when future commercial transactions or recognised assets or liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the entity’s functional currency.

    • iii.The Group has certain investments in foreign operations, whose net assets are exposed to foreign currency translation risk. Currency exposure arising from the net assets of the Group’s foreign operations is managed primarily through transactions denominated in the relevant foreign currencies.

v.Total exchange gain (loss), including realised and unrealised arising from significant foreign exchange variation on the monetary items held by the Group for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 amounted to $5,081, ($5,161), $8,312 and $8,826, respectively.

~42~

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 obtained short-term borrowings at fixed rates during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2015, 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 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 analyzing 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 utilization 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 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

  • 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, and compliance with internal balance sheet ratio targets.

  • ii. Surplus cash held by the operating entities over and above the balance required for working capital management are transferred to the Group treasury. Group treasury

~43~

invests surplus cash in interest bearing current accounts, time deposits and marketable securities, choosing instruments with appropriate maturities or sufficient liquidity to provide sufficient headroom as determined by the abovementioned 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.

  • Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.
