Business Report for the Year 2017

Looking back at 2017, political and economic situations around the world have continued on their tumultuous path from the preceding year as many challenges remain in terms of industry developments. Issues such as the fluctuations in global exchange rates, the shortage of labor in China, tightness and increase in prices for component parts have meant significant impact on the entire manufacturing as a whole. As a member of the global supply chain, Compal has not been spared from the effects of these circumstances. Fortunately, with the collaborative efforts from all Compal employees, the company managed to achieve some breakthrough in terms of sales for 2017 to achieve a growth of 16% in consolidated revenue compared to 2016, with the total shipping volume for 5C related electronic products reaching 80 million units. Compal has also continued to reap fruits of success from its Innovation and new business developments. We would like to present a summary of our operational results for last year as follows:

2017 Financial and Business Performance

Compal’s 2017 consolidated revenue came to NT$ 887,657 million, which translated to an increase by 16% compared to the previous year thanks to the growth in computing products and progress of multiple smart devices. Consolidated operating income was NT$ 9,208 million, which was down by 17% compared to 2016. The decline was mainly attributed to the one-time inventory and accounts receivable bad debt losses for Chinese smartphone customers that totaled at NT$ 3,588 million. With non-operating income and income tax accounted for, the net profit attributed to the parent company came to NT$ 5,750 million, with the EPS at NT$ 1.32.

With regards to business development, computing products have benefitted from the trend of commercial replacement demand. Coupled with Compal’s efforts in client cultivation and relevant collaborations in the development of innovative design for products with high added-values, the company has achieved the growth in shipping volumes in 2017 with performance superior to the market and other industry peers. As for non-computing products, after Compal has made breakthrough developments in technology and mass-production for various internet connected devices in 2016, the company initiated more extended collaborations with customers in 2017 to achieve modest progress in the development of Smart Home applications, such as AI speaker and Home gateway, as well as Wearable devices. All in all, Compal’s non-NB business has contributed in excess of 30% of the company’s revenue in 2017 and reached a short-term milestone in Compal’s record of active transition in recent years. Our next step is to ensure further improvement in the company’s profit through better management and efficacy as Compal diversifies its operations.

Honors and Awards

With our continual effort towards innovation, Compal has kept up with its impressive performance in the German iF product designs in 2017 by receiving a total of 43 awards over the past six years, thereby firmly securing Compal’s place in the iF Top 100 Global Innovation Corp. Ranking. Compal’s commitment to Corporate Social Responsibilities (CRS) and Corporate Governance has once again been acknowledged by the Gold Medal Award in

26

TCSA given by Taiwan Institute for Sustainable Energy along with the company’s placement in the top 20% in Corporate Governance Evaluation by Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporation in 2017. Not only that, Compal is once again selected as a Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporate Governance Index constituent stock.

2018 Business Outlook

For 2018, Compal will be focusing on a few key developments, including to continue strengthening collaboration with customers to achieve higher market share in the company’s core business in order to attain higher economy of scale; in terms of technology, Compal will invest in the deployment for Artificial Intelligence and next-generation 5G technologies in order to create more opportunities for new product and service development. For manufacturing, we will accelerate automation and optimize the overall processes to achieve better productivity. With regards to management, we will continue to push cross-organization integration and resource sharing while nurturing more talents to achieve our goal of sustainable developments. Looking ahead to the global economy for 2018, while many variables of uncertainty remain at play, after careful assessment of market situations and Compal’s business development, there is a good chance that the total shipping volume of 5C related electronic products could continue the trend of growth as we have seen in 2017. Pertaining to the percentage of revenue from non-NB products, we expect to see continued growth. At the same time, Compal shall persevere to improve upon the company’s organizational fortitude to vie for better leverage in the competition.

New Business Development of Smart Medical

Ever since the company’s foray into the smart medical and healthcare industry in 2015, we have witnessed many collaborations of horizontal alliance unfold. In 2017, Compal unveiled its “Smart Healthcare Solution for Senior Citizens” – a joint-effort with Taoyuan City Government, Department of Social Welfare along with several long-term care centers to serve seniors with smart healthcare technology. At the same time, the company has also developed its “Smart Fitness Solution” to introduce a platform of physical exercise for people of all ages through the use of the featured smart matt to help users incorporate health management into their day-to-day lives. In early 2018, the cooperative program between the Unicore Animal Hospital (operated by Unicore BioMedical Co. Ltd. – a 100%-owned subsidiary of Compal) and National Pingtung University of Science and Technology has been officially commence, while “ iDiabCare® –Remote Healthcare Solution for Chronic Illnesses and Diabetes” developed by Compal’s internal Smart Medical team has also been officially adopted at Changhua Christian Hospital, with more horizontal alliance collaborations currently ongoing. We believe that our investment in Smart medical and healthcare will serve as the next key propellant that drives the company towards long-term growth. Once again, we sincerely appreciate your support and advice for Compal and wish you a peaceful and prosperous year!

Sincerely yours,

Chairman of the Board: Sheng-Hsiung Hsu President and Chief Executive Officer: Jui-Tsung Chen Accounting Officer: Ching-Hsiung Lu

The inventory is measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The short life cycle of electronic products may cause significant changes in customers ’ demand and sales of related products.

28

Consequently, the book value of inventory may be lower than the net realizable value of inventory. Therefore, the valuation of inventory is one of the key audit matters.

Our key audit procedures performed in respect of the above area included the following:

In order to verify the rationality of assessment of inventory valuation estimated by the Company, our key ’ audit procedures included reviewing the consistency of accounting policy, inspecting the Company s inventory aging reports, analyzing the change of inventory aging, as well as verifying the inventory aging reports and the calculation of lower of cost or net realizable value.

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance (including members of the Audit Committee) are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

Auditors Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the parent company only financial reports, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.

  5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial reports, including the disclosures, and whether the financial reports represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

29

  1. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the investment in other entities accounted for using the equity method to express an opinion on the financial reports. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be considered to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the parent company only financial reports of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditor’s report are Kuan Ying Kuo and Yiu Kwan Au.
