China Steel Chemical Corporation Business Report

I. 2016 business report:

A. Overview of business operations:

Being affected by the instable international political situation and the violent fluctuation of oil prices in 2016, the economic climate of the world is still unsettled and wobbling until now. Due to the delayed firing of Formosa Group’s Ha Tinh Steel Plant, it has led to the reduction of imported materials, and so we have experienced dwindling turnover. The situation was even worsened by the chaotic economic situation in the global market and the oil price in first quarter of 2016 slid down to a level less than USD30 per barrel. Although the price began to climb from the second quarter, the scale is still less than the expected and instable. In the meantime, the sales price of relevant products was also fluctuating around lower price levels and resulted in lowered revenue and profits in 2016.

B. Implementation result of business plan:

In 2016, we processed 258,193 tons of coal tar, 99,834 tons of light oil, and the sales volume of coal tar and light oil was 247,349 tons and 87,946 tons respectively. The yearly sales volume of MCMB and graphite MCMB was 3,691 tons. In addition, the coal tar delivered to Formosa Group’s Ha Tinh Steel Plant was 15,036 tons.

In 2016, the consolidated revenue was NTD5,143,740,000, representing 10% less than NTD5,737,544,000 in 2015. The consolidated net profit was NTD1,038,960,000, which is 16% less than NTD1,239,086,000 in 2015, yielding an NTD4.45 after-tax profit per share. The reason for such recession was the sliding of oil prices by 16% in 2015 that has caused the reduced sales price of the relevant products. In 2016, the individual revenue was NTD4,894,859,000, representing 15% less than NTD5,770,498,000 in 2015. As a result, the individual after-tax net profit was NTD1,030,904,000, which is 17% less than NTD1,239,033,000 in 2015.

  • C. Analysis of financial revenues and expenditures, budget execution and profit capacity:

     - Please refer to the financial statement attached to the 2016 Financial Status Overview.
    
  • D. Situation of research and development:

    • (1) By now, we have developed a high-energy and high-power anode material series and they have been introduced to major battery plants in Taiwan, Japan and China. Attributing to its superb characteristics of high power and longer service life, the anode materials are not only certified by the customer but are also applied to their design for power batteries to suit the needs of motorized locomotives and energy storage systems, etc.

    • (2) In the meantime, we also completed the implementation of a 36-ton trial production line for the super capacitance-related active carbon and the max. Productivity test of the model furnace is now underway. Furthermore, a plan has also been plotted for a hundred-ton class continuous production line in order to satisfy the market demand and application. With such, we have secured active carbon orders from customers in Germany, Korea, Hong Kong, Taiwan and China, which has contributed to a 511% increase in turnover as compared to 2015.

    • (3) In addition, we have completed the application of composite graphite blocks for the discharge processing sector and their quality has reached the high-end commercial product level, with the sample dimensions available for testing by the customer as well. At the current stage, the trial production line is being planned hoping that we could achieve stabilized mass production.

  • II. 2017 business plan profile

  • A. Operation strategy:

    • (1) Analyze message. Control over the trend. Create a blue ocean market.

    • (2) Identify risks and control hazard; implementing green partners.

    • (3) Refining production and production capacity break through; strictly controlling product quality.

    • (4) Developing products and optimizing production process; strengthening

9

competitiveness.

  • (5) Reducing costs and increasing profits; optimizing process management.

  • B. Production and marketing policy:

  • (1) We can ship the by-products such as coal tar, coarse light oil and coke manufactured by CSC and Dragon Steel Corporation in full volume and a real-time manner so that the products processed will meet the market and customer requirements. In this way, all of the products can be sold at market price as scheduled so as to create economic value.

  • (2) Through the cooperation agreement with Formosa Group’s Ha Tinh Steel Plant, the by-product such as coal tar and coarse light oil manufactured from the production line of Ha Tinh Steel Plant will be fabricated into the high-end product required by the market and sold in a full volume manner.

  • (3) To present an optimal coal-based chemical product chain, we also developed the diversified fine carbon series such as innovative lithium-ion secondary battery anode material, active carbon for super-high capacitance, and isotropy graphite. The goal is to elevate higher added-value business for the coal tar pitch and to accelerate the speed of launching high-technology and green energy related business for the company.

Proposal 2 Proposed by the Board of Directors of the Company

Subject: Propose 2016 earnings distribution of the Company for approval. Description:

  • A. The 2016 earnings after tax of the Company was $1,030,904,177. After adding $58,158,771 of undistributed earnings by the end of 2015, $91,543,937 of Reversal of Special reserve, deducting $1,848,084 of effects resulting from changes in long-term equity and $ 18,131,789 actuarial losses from defined benefit pension plans included in retained earnings, setting aside the legal reserve of NT$ 77,840,068, the distributable earnings was $1,082,786,944 by the end of 2016.

  • B. In accordance with Article 26 of Articles of Incorporation of the Company, $1,066,070,160 is distributed as cash bonus for shareholders, which is a $4.5 cash bonus distribution per share. The undistributed earnings after distribution are $16,716,784.

  • C. The base date of cash dividend distribution will be determined by the Board of Directors after this proposal was reported to and approved by 2016 shareholders’ meeting. When distributing cash dividends, the dividend for individual shareholders will be distributed to “dollar,” while the decimals will be rounded to dollar. The decimal following the integer dollar will be rounded off, and the odd sum will also be included in the other income accounts of this company.

  • D. In order to cope with the implementation of combination of two taxes, we will give the priority to distribute earnings in 1998 and the years after that when calculating the tax deduction ratio of deductible tax amount for shareholders stipulated in Article 66-6 of the Income Tax Act. We will also give the priority to distribute earnings of the latest year when calculating income tax of the undistributed earnings that shall be levied at the rate of 10% stipulated in Article 66-9 of the Income Tax Act.

  • E. Please refer to Appendix for the table of 2016 earnings distribution estimation (please refer to P.24 of this Handbook).

Resolution:
