1 Letter to Shareholders

Dear Shareholders,

The global container shipping market has been in the doldrums for several years. 2017 finally ushered in an encouraging recovery. Despite the continued volatility of the global political situation, the geopolitical conflicts, and the trade protectionism, the global container shipping market maintained its integration trends in 2017. The balance of market supply and demand has been improved. Each of the main shipping alliances enlarged its fleet and service scope. Service networks were expanded and the slot utilization was at a higher level, hence operation costs were effectively reduced and revenues were increased. The global container shipping market is characterized by increasing stability.

Great team efforts were exerted by all Evergreen employees in implementing the policy of revenue maximization and cost reduction. Effective improvements were made in the fields of navigational safety, schedule reliability, terminal operation efficiency, container tracking, and document handling. On the other hand, operations within the alliance were enhanced as planned, enabling us to provide higher service quality with enlarged service scope, higher sailing frequencies, and more direct service at a lower cost level.

I. 2017 Business Report

1. Container shipping market overview

(1) Cargo volume growth

According to the World Economic outlook published by the International Monetary Fund (IMF), global GDP grew by 3.8% in 2017, which represents an increase by 3.2% compared to 2016. The average GDP growth rate in developed countries is 2.3%, which is significantly higher than the average growth rate of 1.7% in the past 5 years. In emerging countries, the average GDP growth rate in 2017 was 4.8%, remaining unchanged compared to the rate in the past 5 years. All relevant economic indicators show that 2017 is a relatively bullish year compared to past years.

Global container shipping market demands have grown steadily in sync with the global economic recovery.

1 Letter to Shareholders

A survey by Clarkson, a professional research institute for Maritime Containers reveals that the global volume of container shipments recovered significantly in 2017. Annual growth of 5% led to a 9.2 million TEU increase which resulted in a total volume of 191 million TEU. The east-west route was up about 4.6% Year-on-year, and the north-south route grew by about 5.2%.

As per Container Trade Statistics, the 2017 Asia-Europe segment grew by about 4.12%. Datamyne statistics increased by about 5.81% in the Trans-Pacific eastward segment in 2017.

(2) Capacity Supply

From April 2017, the major traditional markets are dominated by three major alliances - 2M, Ocean Alliance and THE Alliance. Under the operational framework of the alliance, investment by carriers in ultra large container vessels is increasing day by day.

According to statistics released by Alphaliner, 2017 global container fleet capacity growth rose to 3.7%, an increase of around 820,000 in TEU capacity. New deliveries totaled 146 ships at 1,126,131 TEU. A total of 156 vessels were dismantled, which was 421,562 TEU. The order of new vessels is 2,702,000 TEU, accounting for 12% of the total capacity. Among them, there were 59 ships at 18,000 TEU and 76 ships at 10,000 to 18,000 TEU. This shows that the development of ultra-large scale ships is turning into the mainstream.

In addition, the idle capacity in the market is 487,433 TEUs (about 126 ships), accounting for 2.3% of the total global fleet capacity. Compared to the end of 2016, the idle capacity was 1,419,649 TEUs, about 344 ships, accounting for 7% of the total global fleet capacity at the time.

A total of 92 ships with a capacity in excess of 18,000 TEU in 2017 account for 6% of the global fleet capacity; about 370 ships of a capacity of 12,500~18,000 TEU make up 16% of the global fleet capacity; about 221 ships of 10,000~12,500 TEU constitute 7% of the global fleet capacity. About 683 ships of a capacity of 10,000 TEU and above account for 29% of the global fleet capacity. It is estimated that the ratio of vessels of a capacity of 10,000 TEU or more will increase to 37% in 2018.

(3) Freight Market Status

With the gradual recovery of the global container shipping industry, the overall supply and demand situation improved in 2017 with rebounding freight rates. The financial position of the shipping lines was also significantly better than in the previous year.

According to the Alphaliner's statistics, the average profit level of the shipping industry has gradually improved from -1.2% in Q1 (-5.5% in 2016), 2.8% in Q2 (-9.2% in 2016) to 5.0% in Q3 (-7.8% in 2016). Q4 saw an increase to 0.9% (-1.2%in 2016), which represents a significant improvement 2017.

2. Company Operational Strategy

Following the continuous improvement of shipping market supply and demand in the 2017 and the application of modern network technologies, the global shipping container market environment also gradually presented itself in a different light. Our operating strategies were adjusted in response to the changing business environment. Furthermore, through the adoption of new technologies, new platforms and new practices, our major operation costs were reduced and core competitiveness was enhanced. The operating principles can be summarized as follows:

  • (1) Strengthening of carrier alliances to complement the expansion of service networks;
  • (2) Optimal fleet deployment and enhanced slot utilization;
  • (3) Optimize customer relationship management and active control of freight structure;
  • (4) Reasonable and timely reflection of costs and firm grasp of opportunities for revenue improvement;
  • (5) Strict control of operating cost and optimization of operating efficiency.

3. Annual Accounts & Profitability Analysis

B. Profitability Analysis

ROA: 4.01 % ROE: 11.07 % Net Profit Margin: 4.42 % EPS: NTD 1.97 per share

4. Research & Development

(1) Green Fleet

Evergreen's fleet equipment has been modified to conform to California Air Resource Board (CARB) regulations, which became effective on January 1, 2017, requiring all vessels docking at its ports to use shore electric power in order to reduce exhaust emissions by at least 70%.

The company prides itself on being the "Guardian of the Green Earth", it has pioneered the design of S-type ships with multiple environmental protection facilities such as double hulls, built-in oil tanks, and shore power systems in a forward-looking approach that exceeds international norms since 2003. L-type vessels that have been in operation since 2012 are equipped with more advanced technologies to enhance environmental performance and further reduce greenhouse gas emission rates. In addition, the Type B container vessels, which were delivered in the third quarter of 2017, are equipped with a newlydeveloped sword-type stern, which can effectively reduce the wave resistance during navigation and save fuel consumption compared to the conventional ball-type hull.

In addition, we maintain an "Environmental Guardians" page on our website so as to proactively disclose emissions management and treatment of ballast and sludge, as well as provide detailed information on S-type, L-type, and B-type designs and other green instruments for the easy reference of our customers.

(2) Maritime Training

Evergreen embraces the spirit and vision of sustainable operations and is firmly committed to providing its ship masters and all crew

1 Letter to Shareholders

Evergreen Seafarer Training Center has a full range of training equipment and offers rigorous and well-planned training courses to continuously improve professional knowledge and skills of seafarers with the goal of preventing maritime accidents and environmental pollution.

  • (a) In 2017, the Evergreen Seafarer Training Center organized a total of 310 professional training courses in 29 categories for 1,743 trainees.
  • (b) In November 2017, the UK Maritime and Coastguard Agency recertified the Company's electronic chart and data display system, Proficiency in preservation responsibility, and Proficiency in preservation awareness. The courses provided by the Evergreen Seafarer Training Center (ESTC) met the requirements of IMO STCW (Standards of Safety, Training, Certification, and Watch keeping) 2010 Amendments.
  • (c) To actively recruit outstanding talent and aspiring maritime professionals, Evergreen strengthened its cooperation with National Kaohsiung Marine University, offering a graduate program in maritime transportation with a series of complete expertise and professional skills training courses. In addition, Evergreen cooperates with National Taiwan Ocean University, offering a graduate program in turbine technology and appointing outstanding managers as lecturers in several professional courses. The goal is to cultivate professional seafarer and administrative personnel for the future through a mechanism of selection, training, deployment, and retention.
  • (3) E-Commerce

E-commerce is an important link of modern transportation services. Evergreen launched its e-commerce site in 2001 (ShipmentLink. com) and is firmly committed to constant development and updates by embracing a global outlook and localized services. The goal is to provide customers all over the world with localized services characterized by timeliness, convenience, and eco-friendliness.

E-commerce has flourished in recent years due to increased international transport demand derived from many small and mediumsized enterprises as a result of the expansion of business opportunities through e-commerce platforms. In view of the need for user-friendly 1 Letter to Shareholders

logistics services of smaller volume shippers, Evergreen Line is collaborating with Alibaba.com to allow shippers to search for freight rates and reserve cargo space on the Alibaba.com platform directly. This revolutionary booking service will be available primarily to suppliers in China. Once a booking is confirmed, selected price and capacity are also locked-in. In coordination with the supply chain management services of Evergreen logistics, we provide customers with more convenient services.

(4) Quality Recognition

Evergreen has been constantly improving the quality of its services. The ultimate goal is to win the trust and approval of customers as well as recognition and certification from international media and organizations:

Evergreen Recognized for Corporate Governance Excellence for the Third Consecutive Year

The Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE) announced the result of its third annual corporate governance evaluation of both listed and Over-The-Counter (OTC) companies in Taiwan. The Company is ranked among the top 5% of all listed companies for the third year in a row and is the only shipping company recognized for such excellent performance.

In line with global trends, the evaluation highlights the importance of corporate governance and requires both listed and OTC companies to disclose not only financial data but also non-fiscal information. The KPIs included in this evaluation assess protection of shareholders' rights; equitable treatment of shareholders; board composition and management; information transparency, safeguarding of stakeholder interests and corporate social responsibility.

In order to implement the corporate governance system, the company invited accountants, lawyers and other professionals to serve as independent directors in 2011. Through their professional background and independence, they further enhanced the functions of the board of directors and actively strengthened the role of management and supervision. In terms of information transparency, the company regularly discloses financial statements 1 Letter to Shareholders

and other related information pertaining to fulfillment of corporate social responsibilities, implementation of credit management, and maintenance of labor-management relations on the company's Chinese and English websites, and thereby enabling domestic and foreign investors, global customers, and supply chain partners to gain a clear understanding of the company's operating conditions.

Evergreen honored with E-Commerce Excellence Award for three consecutive years

The company was awarded the "E-Commerce Excellence Award" by LOG NET, a professional logistics information management agency in 2017. From 2014 to 2016, Evergreen won this prestigious award three consecutive times. Founded in 1991, LOG NET is headquartered in New Jersey, USA, and is the leading brand for logistics integrated information services. The company has held annual e-commerce service evaluations since 2003 to recognize the outstanding performance of logistics and transportation companies in information systems and e-commerce solutions.

Although the market situation and operational pressures in 2016 impacted the overall e-commerce capabilities of the maritime industry, the company still maintained consistently excellent performance and insisted on the quality of service. Evergreen Global Information System provides electronic data services including establishment of customer information, information integrity, immediacy, correctness, and various functions of information platforms in different regions. It also provides more than ten types of regionalized webpages in line with regional language and information needs to make it easier for customers to arrange their shipments online, and keep track of their progress and related information.

II. 2018 Business Plan

Global container shipping market is expected to grow in sync with the global economy in 2018, and the volume of traded goods is also expected to grow by about 5.1%. However, imbalances are caused by supply exceeding demand and bunker oil prices continue to climb. As a result, container shipping competitive pressure persists.

1. Business Strategy

(1) Constant Strengthening of Alliances and Collaboration-Full Utilization of the Core Network

The Ocean Alliance which is comprised of the French CMA CGM, China Ocean (COSCO), Hong Kong Orient Overseas (OOCL), and Evergreen was kicked off officially in April 2017. It has 41 service routes, 331 vessels, and a total operating capacity of nearly 3.34 million TEU making it the largest among world's three major shipping alliances. It has planned to further expand its cooperation to provide 42 service routes, 350 vessels, and a total operating capacity of nearly 3.71 million TEU to better serve customers' needs in 2018.

(2) Accelerated Fleet Upgrade Plan-Strict control of Operating Costs

The Company will continue to put new 20,000 TEU, 11,000 TEU and 2,800 TEU eco-friendly ships into service.

In terms of container control, transshipment and cost reduction of fuel, the company strives to reduce the container supply factor to less than 1.6, significantly decrease the cost of transshipment, and increase the flexibility of space utilization through the Ocean Alliance network. Big data analysis software is adopted for ship operating information, coupled with the latest meteorological navigation information to improve navigation efficiency, save fuel costs, and enhance navigation safety.

2. Industry Outlook

(1) Capacity Supply

At the beginning of 2018, the total capacity of the global fleet reached 21.1 million TEU, which was 3.7% higher than in the previous year. According to Alphaliner's estimates, about 1.5 million TEU new

1 Letter to Shareholders

ship capacity will be delivered this year, and the annual transportation capacity will grow by 6% over the previous year. Shipping companies in the market are gradually delaying the delivery of ships, which will ease the oversupply situation in the overall container shipping market. (2) The Growth of Cargo Volume

According to an IMF research report, global GDP growth rate will reach 3.9% in 2018. (6.6%, 2.9%, and 2.4% in China, the United States, and the European Union, respectively). Despite increasing calls for trade protectionism and anti-globalization in recent years, it is expected that the cargo volume of shipments in 2018 will continue to grow. Alphaliner also predicts that global volume will grow by 5.1% in 2018.

In addition, Drewry, a British shipping advisory agency, pointed out in a recent study that turnover in each region is expected to continue to grow, raising the forecasted growth rate to 4.5% in 2018, which means there is an additional volume of 9 million TEU of goods to be shipped.

3. Competitive, Regulatory, and Economic Influences on Our Business

(1) External Competition

The price of marine fuel continued to rebound in 2017. Brent crude average price soared from US\$45 per barrel to US\$54, a rise of US\$9 dollars per barrel. The growth rate reached nearly 20% in 2017. Affected by the OPEC's agreement of fuel reduction, the market expects the average price of Brent crude oil to increase in 2018. The continuous rise in oil prices is a heavy burden for carriers.

  • (2) Regulatory Impact
  • a. Collection of fuel data and CO2 monitoring by the International Maritime Organization (IMO)

From January 1st, 2018, all vessels above 5,000 tons gross tonnage in EU ports should collect and report the annual data of CO2 emissions and related information for verification, and the shipping company should submit the monitoring plan to EU for verification by August 31, 2017.

The 69th session of IMO Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC) approved the global ship fuel consumption data collection mechanism and revised the Annex VI of the MARPOL Convention, which is the global ship fuel consumption data collection mechanism. The information collected by the IMO will be reported to the flag State after the end of each year. After verifying the data, the flag State will issue a declaration of conformity to the vessel and submit the data to the IMO's database of ship fuel consumption.

  • b. China has published new regulations designating three areas as sulphur control areas. Effective Jan. 1, 2018, all ships berthing at ports near the Pearl River Delta, Yangtze River Delta and the Bohai Sea must use fuel with a sulfur content of ≤0.5% m/m.
  • c. The IMO and Marine Environment Protection Committee (MPEC) reached a decision that the 0.5% m/m global ship fuel sulphur limit will become effective on January 1, 2020. Ships operating within the Baltic, North Sea, North American, and U.S. Caribbean Emission Control Areas (ECAs) are required to comply with the stricter 0.1% m/m sulphur limit regulation.
  • (3) Macro Business Environment

2017 was a year of transformations for global container transport operators. In the United States, Trump was elected as the president and de-globalization and trade protectionism became more prominent. The economic structure of China was transformed from "investment and export" to "consumption and domestic demand" orientation, which not only slowed economic growth, but also affected the world economy through production chain and other channels. The pending Brexit, added uncertainties, making it more difficult for enterprises to conduct investment planning and generating negative impacts on the market. However, the global container shipping operators continue to implement consolidation. The reshuffling of the three major alliances has been completed, and the carriers are also trying to find a balance between market share and freight income.

4. Future strategy

The economic growth rate of the major economies in 2018 is expected to be positive and trade volume will continue to grow. For the shipping industry, it could be the best year since the 2008 Financial Crisis. However, the threat of oversupply remains as more new ships will be delivered to the market, and the overall supply and demand is expected to face greater challenges.

As oil prices continue to rise, the coming into effect of the Ballast Water Convention and the requirements set forth new low sulfur fuel

regulations will also increase costs. We will seize the opportunity to adjust the schedule of fleet network in coordination with the Ocean Alliance and make more efficient use of transport capacity.

All staff members strive for constant improvement and self motivation. In addition to an active implementation of the operating performance indicators, our staff spares no effort in exploring new markets to increase revenue and continues to implement various policies of cost and expense reduction. Evergreen provides customers with differentiated services to win customer support by embracing the concept of continuous optimization of service quality. The company earns the trust of shareholders through profitability and sustainable operations.

(5) Internal Control System Execution Status

Evergreen Marine Corp. (Taiwan) LTD. Internal Control Statement

Date: Mar. 26, 2018

The Company states the following with regard to its internal control system during the period from Jan. 1, 2017 to Dec. 31, 2017, based on the findings of self-evaluation:

    1. The Company is fully aware that establishing, operating, and maintaining an internal control system are the responsibility of its Board of Directors and management. The Company has established such a system aimed at providing reasonable assurance of the achievement of objectives in the effectiveness and efficiency of operations (including profits, performance, and safeguard of asset security), reliability, timeliness, transparency of reporting, and compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
    1. An internal control system has inherent limitations. No matter how perfectly designed, an effective internal control system can provide only reasonable assurance of accomplishing the three goals mentioned above. Furthermore, the effectiveness of an internal control system may change along with changes in the environment or external circumstances. The internal control system of the Company contains self-monitoring mechanisms, however, and the Company takes corrective actions as soon as a deficiency is identified.
    1. The Company judges the design and operating effectiveness of its internal control system based on the criteria provided in the Regulations Governing the Establishment of Internal Control Systems by Public Companies promulgated by the Securities and Futures Commission, Ministry of Finance (hereinbelow, the "Regulations"). The internal control system judgment criteria adopted by the Regulations divide internal control into five elements based on the process of management control: 1. Control environment 2. Risk assessment 3. Control activities 4. Information and communications 5. Monitoring. Each element further contains several items. Please refer to the Regulations for details.
    1. The Company has evaluated the design and operating effectiveness of its internal control system according to the aforesaid criteria.
    1. Based on the findings of the evaluation mentioned in the preceding paragraph, the Company believes that during the stated time period its internal control system (including its supervision of subsidiaries), encompassing internal controls for knowledge of the degree of achievement of operational effectiveness and efficiency objectives, reliability, timeliness, transparency of reporting, and compliance with applicable laws and regulations, was effectively designed and operating, and reasonably assured the achievement of the above-stated objectives.
    1. This Statement will become a major part of the content of the Company's Annual Report and Prospectus, and will be made public. Any falsehood, concealment, or other illegality in the content made public will entail legal liability under Articles 20, 32, 171, and 174 of the Securities and Exchange Law.
    1. This statement has been passed by the Board of Directors Meeting of the Company held on Mar. 23, 2018, where zero of the 8 attending directors (include commissioned to attend) expressed dissenting opinions, and all affirmed the contents of this Statement.

President:

(6) Risk management systems in relation to the financial reporting process

A.The effect of fluctuations in interest rates, exchange rates, and inflation on the company's profit and loss and future response measures:

As freight income is mainly in USD, we pay attention to exchange rate fluctuations at all times and adopt the following measures in response:

  • (a) Use of professional financial information systems, constant monitoring of international exchange rate fluctuations, maintenance of close contact with financial institutions to get the most up-to-date exchange rate information and gain a firm grasp of exchange rate fluctuations, which in turn allows the adoption of active response measures to cope with potential impacts of exchange rate fluctuations.
  • (b) Use of the same currency for revenues and expenses if possible in order to achieve natural hedging and prevent exchange rate risk. Shipping revenues in foreign currencies are used to settle payments in foreign currencies in different countries. Natural hedging is utilized to minimize exchange risks.
  • (c) Opening of foreign currency accounts to buy or sell foreign currencies in accordance with actual capital demands and exchange rate developments.

B.Guidelines for engaging in high risk, high leverage investments, lending to third parties, providing guarantees and endorsements, and engaging in derivative transactions:

Currently there are no outstanding amounts for provision of loan to third parties. All endorsements and guarantees are provided to subsidiaries and affiliates. All related transactions are arranged according to our guidelines on providing loans, endorsements and guarantees to third parties.

All derivatives trades are conducted for the purpose of hedging. Interest rate and fuel swap agreements are done to hedge risk arising from market volatility and price fluctuation. Relevant operations are carried out pursuant to the Procedures Governing Derivative Trading.

I. Business Highlights

1. Business Scope

(1) The company's main business areas

The core business of Evergreen is container shipping. Our fleet capacity ranked sixth in the world at the end of 2017. All of our service routes are operated on a regular liner basis. We also offer inland transport, stevedoring, and logistics support services. Our customers are drawn from the manufacturing, trading, and retail industries and come from all over the world thus the company's business performance is closely connected to the global economy.

(2) Present service items

The company's short-and long-haul service routes form a global network, including:

  • a. Transpacific trade
  • b. Far East-Europe/Mediterranean trade
  • c. Transatlantic trade
  • d. Far East-Latin America/Africa trade
  • e. Intra-Asian trade

In addition to the above service routes, we also provide a regional feeder service network, such as within the Caribbean and the Indian subcontinent and other regions, to shorten delivery times.

(3) Planned service development

The maritime business environment has dramatically improved compared to last year. Major Carriers further strengthened different Shipping Alliances. Evergreen, as a founding member of Ocean Alliance since April 2017, embraces a strategy of simultaneous focus on stability and flexibility, in its constant optimization of the fleet network and service routes to cope with the latest market trends. Adjustments to our service routes in 2017 are summarized below:

Transpacific routes

In April 2017, a new Ocean Alliance composed of Evergreen, COSCO, CMA CGM and OOCL, was formed to expand port coverage and service scope through a brand new Ocean Alliance's network that encompasses 20 services in Transpacific with 13 Asia - North American West Coast services ( PRX / CEN / PE1 / AAC / CPS / PVCS / HTW / TPS / PCC1 / NP1 / PE2 / TPN / PNW1), and 7 Asia – North American East Coast ( PE2 / AUE / PE1 / NUE / SAX / PEX3 / GME ) service routes.

Far East-Europe/Mediterranean strings

  1. As of April 2017, the Ocean Alliance, composed of Evergreen, COSCO, CMA CGM and OOCL, provides 6 services for the Far East - Northern Europe route scope, including a total 33 direct calling ports such as Gdansk and Southampton. Weekly Capacity increased by 295 TEU, (equivalent to 2%), compared to Q1 prior to formation of Ocean Alliance; In addition, the alliance provides 5 services for the Far East - Mediterranean route scope, including 35 direct calling ports such as Venice and Haifa. Weekly Capacity increased by 1,100TEU, equivalent to 12%, compared to Q1 prior to formation of the Ocean Alliance.

    1. Intra-Europe Feeder Services: In November 2017, Evergreen teamed up with YML and COSCO to create a new joint operation. This weekly service encompasses five ships of 4,250 TEU capacities, one each provided by Evergreen and YML and the remaining three by COSCO. The launch of this new service will enable Evergreen to provide a direct connection from North Europe to the Mediterranean, particularly to Morocco, Turkey, Israel and Egypt and dramatically shorten delivery times which is a benefit especially for reefer containers.
    1. Mediterranean Regional Services:
  2. (1)In 2017, Evergreen aimed to consolidate the Group Intra-Med feeder Network to provide customers with the best combination of transport needs. All main regional services continued throughout 2017 with minor rotation adjustments. Izmir and Gemlik, Turkey, services routes were shifted from GTS to ADL and BSM to GTS, respectively.
  3. (2)Major changes occurred in the North Africa sector, where NAF, PAL and LYS2 services have been merged into one single service "NAFR" in response to lowered import demand from Asia. Besides, Mediterranean regional services to Tunis, Tunisia, have been temporarily suspended because the actual length of stay in port exceeds 30 days per voyage. Evergreen Line operations in Tunisia are now focusing on the port of Bizerte in Tunisia.
  4. (3)Intensified co-operation with EMES to extend the service range to Casablanca, Morocco via Piraeus, was initiated in June 2017 and terminated in December. This paved the way for the new EMX service (Europe-Med Express), launched by EMU in cooperation with COSCO and through rational transshipment to strengthen service competitiveness in this area.

Far East-Latin America/Africa routes

    1. Far East-East Africa services (AEF/ASEA): Maintenance of 2-string services through joint agreement with COSCO and X-press on AEF service, and provision of ASEA service through allocation swap with CMA CGM and Emirates, continuous enhancement of daily operations and provision of quality services to valuable customers.
    1. Far East-South Africa services (FAX/ASA): Maintenance of the well-regarded ASA / FAX 2-loop service with Cosco / K-Line / PIL / MOL team to offer the most competitive and stable individual services to Durban and Cape Town.
    1. Far East-Panama/Caribbean: The Company utilizes a part of the capacity of the Far East-North American East Coast services to expand deployment in Panama/

Caribbean Sea. As of April 2017, we provide enough capacity for clients due to Ocean Alliance service expansion. There are currently two services (AUE and NUE) in the Far East-Panama/Caribbean trade.

    1. Far East-Mexico/South American West Coast (WSA/WSA2): There are 11 vessels in WSA joint service and 10 vessels in WSA2 joint service. The Company deploys 6 vessels in WSA and 1 vessel in WSA2.
    1. Far East-South American East Coast (ESA/ESA2): There are 12 vessels in ESA joint service (4 of them deployed by Evergreen). Evergreen swaps slots with NYK in ESA2.

Far East-Middle East/Red Sea/India Subcontinent/Australia routes

    1. Far East-Middle East Service: After the Ocean Alliance commenced operations in April 2017, the service network for Far East to Middle East has been upgraded. There are six sailings a week and the port coverage could be the one of the best in the market.
    1. Far East-Red Sea Service: From April 2017, the Ocean Alliance enlarged vessel capacity to eight 9,600 TEU and eight 6,500 TEU container ships with 2-string weekly services to expand port coverage from Far East to Red Sea loop and cater to the local demand with "service quality" and "schedule reliability".
    1. Far East-Indian Subcontinent Service: In 2017, one 2,800 TEU containership and one 4,200 TEU containership are separately deployed in two West-North India joint direct services. Apart from that, there is one 4,200 TEU containership deployed in Pakistan joint direct service. In December 2017, the capacity was increased by a further 200 TEU in South-East India direct service to expand the service scope and market share of the India-Pakistani market.
    1. Far East- Australia Service: Evergreen put one more vessel into the NEAX service at the end of May 2017. There are a total three vessels in the Far East to Australia string to meet customers demand and strengthen service competitiveness.

Intra-Asia Routes

    1. In order to strengthen the network from China to Indonesia, the CIT service route (China – Indonesia – Thailand route) was launched in March 2017 to provide express services and to meet customer demands.
    1. To provide better shipping services from China to Vietnam, Singapore and Malaysia, the CVM service was launched in March 2017 to provide express services. The overall transit time was shortened to meet customer needs.
    1. The NSB service (Northeast Asia-Southeast Asia Route) was extended to Shanghai in March 2017 and to Port Klang North Port in July 2017. This route provides direct services between Shanghai and Singapore and strengthens the direct service of Klang Port. Meanwhile, it enhances the coverage of the NSB route schedules.
    1. In order to optimize direct services from South Korea and Central China to the Philippines, KTP service (South Korea - Taiwan - Philippines) Subic Bay was added in April 2017 and Central China – Philippines was added in October. These services provide customers more convenient services from South Korea and China to the Philippines.
    1. Since September 2017, JTP service (Japan-South China-Vietnam) was reshuffled to add Haiphong as a port of call and provide Japan-Haiphong bidirectional service. This move has effectively improved the space utilization, drastically shortened the transit time and greatly improved the quality of shipping services.
    1. TPH service (Taiwan-Philippines) has been enhanced to provide customers with a more extensive service by adding Cagayan in November 2017. This service increases Evergreen's market share in the Philippines.
    1. In line with terminal draught limitations and environmental energy saving requirements, a wider ship design has been adopted to enhance cargo loading capacity, schedule punctuality, and market competitiveness. A total of twenty 2,800 TEU Type-B container vessels were ordered by Evergreen Group. Three of these vessels have been deployed into the NSD service (Northeast Asia-Southeast Asia) in the fourth quarter of Year 2017 and the remaining new vessels are expected to be fully operational in the Intra Asia region by Year 2019.

2. Container Shipping Industry Profile

(1) Macroeconomic Environment

According to Alphaliner statistics, the global container shipping demand grew by 6.5% in 2017, which represents a significant recovery from only 2.5% in 2016. The global fleet capacity growth rate rose from 1.8% in 2016 to 3.7% in 2017. As a result of sufficient cargo volume from the first quarter to the third quarter rarely seen in recent years (despite the softening in the fourth quarter), 2017 as a whole brought positive results for the ocean carriers.

Industry integration is the main theme of 2017. In Asia, the forth- ranked COSCO group's acquisition of the seventh-ranked OOCL is undoubtedly the largest merger and acquisition case of the shipping market in 2017. The purpose of the acquisition is to optimize the network of routes and the distribution of capacity, reduce the related cost of suppliers, integrate the container fleet and enhance the management capability. In addition, Japan's big three shipping companies also merged their container transport business (including overseas terminals business) to set up ONE Express. The official kick-off date is slated for April 1, 2018. In Europe, the Danish Maersk acquisition of German Hamburg-sud has been completed. Hapag-Lloyd also announced the completion of formal integration with UAE (UASC) of the Arab Emirates. It is expected that industry consolidation will continue over the next few years.

A series of consolidations of container shipping market significantly changed the market structure. Container shipping industry concentration has been greatly elevated. Three major alliances (2M, Ocean Alliance, and THE Alliance) now control most of the market capacity and the main market in east-west strings.

Looking ahead to 2018, Alphaliner reports point to a cargo volume growth rate of about 5%. After MSC and CMA CGM placed the order for the world's largest container ship, the market will face another record breaking year of Ultra Container Vessel delivery. Yet market fundamentals are encouraging, and port and trade statistics are expected to show a continued recovery in 2018.

(2) Relationships with Up-, Mid- and Downstream Companies

Marine shipping is the main transportation tool used in international trade. The ratio of transportation volume via container ships and total cargo tonnage has been raised year on year, covering most consumer product items. Not only is its industry chain interconnectivity extremely high but it is also closely related to consumer livelihood. This is summarized below:

a.Upstream industry

  • Shipyards
  • Transportation equipment manufacturers
  • Ship or transport equipment rental providers

b.Mid-stream industries

  • Marine fuel suppliers
  • Ship and transportation equipment repairers
  • Terminal operators
  • Land transportation logistics providers
  • Shipping alliance or slot purchasing partners

c.Downstream industries

  • Direct shippers (manufacturers, retailers, service providers)
  • Freight forwarding and logistics industry

(3) Product Development Trends

a.Industry concentration at an all-time high

Marine industry consolidation has accelerated in 2017. The combined capacity of the Top ten carriers accounted for a record high 77% at the end of 2017. This figure is expected to increase further to 82%, with the impending absorption of OOCL by COSCO and the merger of K Line, MOL and NYK to form "Ocean Network Express" (ONE).

b.Mainstream of ULCVs

Containership deliveries reached a total of 1.19 Million TEU in 2017, 26% more than in the previous year. Ultra-large containerships of 14,000 TEU and beyond accounted for about 56% of this new capacity.

c.Green Shipping Trends

In recent years, due to the worsening issues of global warming and climate change, reduction of carbon emissions to protect the environment has turned into an issue of universal concern. Thus, green shipping concepts have become a prime focus for the industry. Relevant regulations are being enacted around the world. For example, China has designated three emission controls areas, the IMO has advanced the use of low sulphur fuels by 2020, and the main international ports are incentivizing the use of light diesel oil during docking and the active use of shore power to reduce environmental pollution. In response to these regulatory trends, new ships are adopting energy-efficient, low-pollution designs. Green shipping is the trend of the future.

(4) Status of Market Competition

a.Top three Carriers retain market positions

Maersk, MSC and CMA CGM retained their respective positions as the top three carriers in the global container shipping industry. But COSCO and Hapag-Lloyd have closed the gap through consolidation in the last two years. COSCO is expected to leap into the number three spot once it completes the acquisition of OOCL next year.

b.New alliances dominate main East-West routes

The reshuffle of the former 2M/G6/CKYHE/O3 alliances led to the formation of new Alliances on 1 April 2017. The three new Alliances, 2M+HMM, Ocean Alliance and THE Alliance, currently control 91% of the Far East - North America trade capacity and 99% of the Far East- Europe trade capacity.

3. Status of Technology and R&D

R&D expenditures and results during the reporting year

(1) Green Fleet

The Company aims to be a "Guardian of the Green Earth". Since 2003, it has been leading the industry in the design of S-type systems with double hull, builtin oil tanks, shore power systems, and many other environmental protection facilities on ships. Type L vessels put into operation since 2012 have enhanced their environmental performance with more advanced technologies to further reduce their greenhouse gas emission rates. In addition, the Type B container wheel delivered beginning in the third quarter of 2017 is equipped with a newly developed swordtype bow and can effectively reduce the wave resistance during navigation and save fuel consumption compared with the traditional spherical bow.

In addition, we maintain an "Environmental Guardians" page on our website to provide detailed information on emissions management and treatment of ballast and sludge, as well as introducing 17 state-of-the-art S-type, B-type and L-type designs and other green equipment for the easy reference of our customers.

(2) Maritime Certification

Evergreen upholds the spirit and vision of sustainable development and firm commitment to professional maritime training. The Evergreen Seafarer Training Center has comprehensive training equipment and we rigorously organize training courses to continuously improve professional knowledge and skills of our crews so as to prevent the incidence of maritime accidents and environmental pollution.

In 2017, the Evergreen Seafarer Training Center organized a total of 310 professional training courses in 29 categories for 1,743 trainees.

In November 2017, the UK Maritime and Coastguard Agency recertified the electronic chart and data display system, Proficiency in preservation responsibility and Proficiency in preservation awareness of the company. The courses provided by the Evergreen Seafarer Training Center (ESTC) met the requirements set forth in IMO STCW (Standards of Safety, Training, Certification, and Watch keeping) 2010 Amendments.

Actively recruit outstanding talent and aspiring maritime professionals, Evergreen strengthened its cooperation with National Kaohsiung Marine University, offering a graduate program in maritime transportation with a series of complete knowledge and professional skills training courses, offering the opportunity for non-maritime undergraduates to engage in maritime work.

In addition, Evergreen cooperates with National Taiwan Ocean University, offering a graduate program in turbine technology and appointing outstanding managers as lecturers in several professional courses. The goal is to cultivate professional seafarer and administrative personnel for the future through a mechanism of selection, training, deployment, and retention.

(3) E-Commerce

Evergreen continuously invests resources and exerts efforts in E-commerce services to create a safe and efficient information system and reliable service chain by adopting a perspective characterized by a global outlook and localized services to help customers seize business opportunities and strengthen market competitiveness.

E-commerce has flourished in recent years due to increased international transport demand derived from many small and medium-sized enterprises as a result of the expansion of business opportunities through e-commerce platforms. In view of the need for user-friendly logistics services of smaller volume shippers, Evergreen Line is collaborating with Alibaba.com to allow shippers to search for freight rates and reserve cargo space on the Alibaba.com platform directly. This revolutionary booking service will be available primarily to suppliers in China. Once a booking is confirmed, selected price and capacity are also locked-in. In coordination with the supply chain management services of Evergreen logistics, we provide customers with more convenient services.

(3) Market Outlook for Supply-Demand and Growth

Far East to North America Trade

Goldman Sachs forecasted an increase of the US economic growth rate in 2018 from 2.3% to 2.6%. The unemployment rate approached a 50-year-low of 3.7% starting in November 2017. The continuing recovery of the job market is expected to stimulate private consumption and raise the investment of enterprises. Many new policies will continue to boost the overall U.S. economy. Salaries will grow by 3% to 3.25%, exceeding the current rate of 2.5%. In view of the above, it is expected that the overall export volume from the Far East to the United States in 2018 will grow steadily.

North America to Far East Trade

The Global Economy is expected to maintain its growth momentum in 2018. However, it is not likely that global trade will achieve significant growth as in 2017 since economic status is at a higher level compared to the previous year coupled with stable international raw material prices. Furthermore, Vietnam and China government have raised the barrier on DDGS by imposing new rules on pesticide and increased the import tax which will limit the volume of US exports. Besides, the new policy to control the quality of waste materials adopted by the Chinese government will further limit US export volume since waste materials are the major export commodities from US (small-scale businesses fail to meet relevant criteria in the field of equipment and product quality). Since the US export trend for 2018 is conservative and the market capacity supply continues to grow, the US export market will still pose a serious challenge caused by cut-throat price competition in 2018.

Far East to Europe/Mediterranean Trade

Against the backdrop of a major reshuffling to form 3 major alliances and European/ Mediterranean economic recovery, the overall capacity supply increased by 4.5%, while cargo volume increased by 6%. Consequently, ocean freight rates returned to reasonable and profitable levels. However, starting from September, the Chinese government adopted tougher environmental policies that caused market trends to slightly drop in Q4. In view of 2018 market outlook, overall market capacity in Europe/ Mediterranean trade is expected to increase by 6%. Major carriers including Evergreen will commission 20K TEU Ultra Large Container Ships. In view of the above, competitive pressures in the market are expected to persist in 2018.

Europe to Far East Trade

After China adjusted the regulations governing waste cargos, the main commodity (waste goods) exported from Europe is predicted to decline by 30% and allocated to alternative routes. Export cargo quantities from Europe are predicted to slightly increase by 3.8%. Ocean Alliance will adjust certain routes and calling ports in May 2018 in order to offer stable and exceptional service for our customers.

Europe to North America Trade

According to Datamyne, Alphaliner and Drewry reports, fleet capacity of Transatlantic Westbound market increased by 11.3% in 2017 while total demand increased by 3.6% only. The average revenue suffered from downward adjustments. Starting in the 2nd year of Ocean Alliance, Evergreen service will be more competitive with faster T/S time and expanded port coverage on the U.S. East Coast side with the aim to provide efficient and reliable services.

Far East – Mexico/South America West Coast Market

The capacity of WSA/WSA2 was enlarged in 2017. Starting from the second

quarter of 2017, ocean freight and cargo volume increased. The services of carriers will be reshuffled in the second quarter of 2018 due to consolidation trends. As long as the market supply remains balanced, our revenue is expected to grow.

Far East – Panama/Caribbean Market

As for the Caribbean Market in 2017, the economy of major countries is stably growing along with increasing cargo sources and improved revenue, except for Venezuela which still reeled from political and economic chaos. IMF forecasts that Panama and other major Caribbean countries will maintain a positive growth rate of 5% and increasing cargo volume and revenue.

Far East to East Coast South America

In 2017, the annual loading factor and the rate level reached a new high benefitted from the balance of supply and demand. The revenue also increased substantially due to appropriate addition of extra loader. The economic growth in Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, and Paraguay in 2018 is expected to rise by roughly 3% according to forecasts by IMF. The bullish market of 2017 on the east coast of South America is expected to continue in 2018.

Far East to Africa Trade

The South African economy gradually picked up steam, currency value was stable, and purchasing power was restored in 2017 compared to 2016. IMF forecasts that South Africa's GDP in 2018 will be 1.1% higher than in the previous year and the market is expected to continue its development. Export volume to East Africa fell short of the target mainly due to conservative customer attitudes as a consequence of instable political and economy situation in the wake of the presidential election in Kenya in Q4 2017. IMF has predicted a growth rate exceeding 5% in Kenya and Tanzania, and 1.1% growth in South Africa in 2018. As a result stable growth of the overall economy and cargo volume is expected in 2018.

Far East to Middle East/Red Sea/India Pakistan Trade

Since the Ocean Alliance commenced operations in April 2017, the service network has been upgraded to six sailings to the Middle East and two sailings to the Red Sea per week. The port coverage could be one of the best in the market. A review of the market conditions of 2017 reveals a hike of the ocean freight rate level due to a peak in cargo movements rushed out from China before Holy Ramadan. After that time, the average rate had come down from July levels due to oversupply in capacity. In the India/ Pakistan market, the market volume and GDP exhibited strong growth, and the freight rate level hit a five-year high because demand exceeded supply.

In 2018, the service network of the Middle East and Red Sea trade will be maintained in the context of the Ocean Alliance's cooperation structure. Middle Eastern trade remained at a constant level and the coverage rate and capacity of the Far East to Red Sea loop will be upgraded with additional calls from North/South China/Korea and Sokhna, Egypt.

The Middle East and Red Sea market situation could be better than last year due to gradually rising oil prices the optimistic financial prospects in 2018. However, market supply and demand are still focal points in the future. South Asian countries are optimistic about their GDP growth rates and the volume of goods will increase in the near future. We will develop new Services to further expand the market share in India.

Far East to Australia trade

Due to improvements of the raw material market, the demand for imports from Australia increased and the supply of vessel capacity was tight. The freight rate of the Australian line approached a three-year high in the fourth quarter of 2017.

According to forecasts of the Australian Bureau of Statistics, the population of Australia will reach 24.9 million at the end of 2018. This represents an increase of 33% compared to the level of 18.77 million in 2001. Population growth boosted the real estate market and expanded the demand for products for domestic consumption. Evergreen is going to up-size the vessel capacity to meet the market demand. It will help Evergreen to further expand its market share.

Intra-Asia Trade

According to a recent IMF report, 2018 global economic activity strengthened with an economic growth rate of 3.7%, which represents the same level as in 2017. Asia continues to lead the global economy with its strong economic growth, with an estimated increase of 5.5% in 2018. Among Asian countries, China's GDP growth is the strongest with an expected increase of 6.5%, turning China into the fastest-growing region.

As for ASEAN, including Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam, the overall GDP growth was 5.2%. It is expected that there will be room for growth in the bilateral trade volume between China and ASEAN, and the trade and logistics interactions between ASEAN countries will intensify. The outlook for Intra Asia trade in 2018 is therefore still optimistic.

Reefer business

Population and income growth have led to an increase in consumer demand. Besides, traditional reefer vessels have gradually declined over the years. Reefer container volume growth is estimated at about 4.5% in the coming three years.

In Asia, demand for frozen and refrigerated cargo has increased. The main sources of imports are fruits and vegetables, frozen meat, seafood and alcohol in North America, Europe, and South America, meat from South America, and meat, seafood, and fruits from India.

To cope with market demand, we will place an order for construction of 3,000 reefer units, while at the same time expanding reefer traffic in Intra-Asia, India, North and South American areas, as well as enhance Cold Treatment and CA(Controlled Atmosphere) service to diversify cargo source and grow our reefer business.

Special equipment

Capitalizing on the global service network of Ocean Alliance, Evergreen's special container business kept growing in 2017 and traffic originating from the areas of China, Taiwan and Japan accounted for 73%.

Through an increase in infrastructure investments in particular, we are targeting the market in China and Asia. To cope with tonnage growth and market demand, Evergreen Line plans to placean order for new special equipment to enlarge the special cargo business, expand the market, and grasp business opportunities.

(4) A competitive niche

Innovative Thinking

The international shipping market is changing rapidly. It requires creative thinking to make corresponding adjustments to overcome the challenges of sustainability, such as assignment of line managers and adoption of a KPI system to monitor performance and make necessary adjustments to make the best use of corporate assets and create maximum revenue income.

Recognized Quality

Evergreen strives to upgrade its service quality. In addition to gaining customers' trust and recognition, it also continues to receive international recognition and certifications from international media agencies and organizations:

(1) Evergreen named Best Asia-Africa Shipping Line

Evergreen Line was named Best Shipping Line - Asia-Africa by the Asia Cargo News at the 2017 Asian Freight, Logistics and Supply Chain Awards, Logistics and Supply Chain Awards (AFLAS).

Criteria for "Supply Chain Asia Logistics Awards" selection include shipment accuracy, efficiency of information systems, and the convenience of customer service system. Winners were selected by the readers of Asia Cargo News Global Reader Vote, rather than a jury composed of the industry experts. This award is therefore particularly significant as it signals a vote of confidence in the carrier's efforts to provide shippers with quality services.

(2) Evergreen honored with E-Commerce Excellence Award for three consecutive years

The company was awarded the "E-Commerce Excellence Award" by LOG NET, a professional logistics information management agency. From 2014 to 2016, Evergreen won this prestigious award three consecutive times.

The company has held annual e-commerce service evaluations since 2003 to recognize the outstanding performance of logistics and transportation companies in information systems and e-commerce solutions.

Although the market situation and operational pressures in 2016 had a significant impact on the overall e-commerce capabilities of the maritime industry, the company still maintained consistently excellent performance and insisted on the quality of its services. Evergreen Global Information System provides electronic data services including the establishment of customer information, information integrity, immediacy, accuracy, and various functions of information platforms in different regions. It also provides more than ten types of regionalized webpages in line with regional language and information needs to make it easier for customers to arrange their shipments online, and keep track of their progress and related information.

E-Commerce

E-commerce is an important link of modern transportation services. Evergreen has been relentless in its pursuit of quality service and as early as in 2001. Evergreen launched of its E-commerce web site ShipmentLink.com to provide global customers with more real-time, more convenient and more eco-friendly services.

E-commerce has flourished in recent years due to increased transport demand derived from many small and medium-sized enterprises as a result of the expansion of business opportunities through E-commerce platforms. In view of the need for userfriendly logistics services of smaller volume shippers, Evergreen Line is collaborating with Alibaba.com to allow shippers to search for freight rates and reserve cargo space on the Alibaba.com platform directly. This revolutionary booking service that be available primarily to suppliers in China. Once a booking is confirmed, selected price and capacity are also locked-in. In coordination with the supply chain management services of Evergreen logistics, we provide customers with more convenient services.

Eco-Friendliness

Pursuant to the requirements set forth in Airborne Toxic Control Measure for Auxiliary Diesel Engines operated on Ocean-Going Vessels At-Berth in a California Port approved by California Air Resource Board (CARB), the Company fleet's use of shore electricity and emission reductions are required to be at least 70% effective as of January 1, 2017.

The Company actively participates in the ship deceleration plan led by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The initiative was aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions of vessels and avoiding whale collisions by encouraging slow sailing speeds in California's Santa Barbara Channel region. Evergreen Line has received recognition for its excellent performance in a voluntary environmental and ecological protection program. In addition, the company will implement the concept of environmental protection in fleet planning, use the most advanced shipbuilding technology and equipment, and build an eco-friendly fleet. Ships participating in the Santa Barbara Water Speed Deceleration Plan include the eco-friendly S-type ship that won the Lloyd's Register "Best Ship Award of the Year" in the UK and the new-generation eco-friendly L-type ship that has been delivered and commissioned in recent years. The goal is to contribute to the sustainable development of transportation services and protection of the marine environment that international trade relies on through high-quality services.

10. Social Responsibility

Evergreen founder and group chairman Dr. Y.F. Chang strongly believed in giving back to society. In 1985, he founded the Chang Yung-fa Foundation, a non-profit organization committed to providing emergency and medical aid, promoting education and cultural exchange, as well as elevating moral standards for three decades.

Among its milestones are the formation of the Evergreen Symphony Orchestra and the launch of Morals Monthly, a magazine distributed free of charge with a monthly circulation of around 360,000 copies in more than 30 countries. The Foundation also operates the Evergreen Maritime Museum, an institution dedicated to the preservation of maritime heritage and promotion of maritime education.

Evergreen has also worked closely with maritime schools in Taiwan to support marine education.

In November 2013, Typhoon Haiyan devastated the central region of the Philippines, causing catastrophic damage. Evergreen worked with Crisis Relief Services & Training (CREST), a non-profit Christian humanitarian organization in Malaysia, offering free transportation services to transport relief supplies to the affected areas.

The officers and crew of Evergreen Line's 7,024-TEU containership EVER SUMMIT promptly responded to a distress call and successfully rescued 16 Indian seafarers from a sunken Panamanian tanker, BITU GULF, about 40 nautical miles off the coast of Vietnam in the South China Sea on January 20, 2014.

To celebrate the 300th anniversary of Karlsruhe, Taiwan presented the German city with a steel cable sculpture for exhibition in a summer festival. For the purpose of art promotion and cultural exchange, Evergreen Line sponsored the event and provided a free transportation service for this oversized object in August, 2015. The sculpture was created by Kang Mu-hsiang, a Taiwan artist renowned for transforming discarded items into eye-catching artworks.

In support of the Chang Yung-fa Foundation's efforts to promote education in remote areas, Evergreen donated 15 secondhand high-end servers and 100 personal computers to the Hsinchu County Education Department, providing assistance to local schools in improving their digital teaching ability.

The company was also honored with a Corporate Social Responsibility Award presented by Containerisation International and Lloydtional and Lloydeong-term commitment to environmental protection, education, and social concern.

3. Consolidated Financial Statements and Report of Independent Accountants

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of Evergreen Marine Corporation (Taiwan) Ltd.

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Evergreen Marine Corporation (Taiwan) Ltd. (the" Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively referred herein as the "Group") as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, and a summary of the significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other independent accountants (please refer to Other Matter section of the report), the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, and its financial performance and cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the "Regulations Governing the Preparations of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers" and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the "Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants" and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China (ROC GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants in the Republic of China (the "Code"), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained and the reports of other independent accountants are sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

The key audit matters of the Group's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 are as follows:

Accuracy of freight revenue

Description

Please refer to Note 4(31) for accounting policies on revenue recognition, Note 5(2) for uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions applied on revenue recognition, and Note 6(21) for details of sales revenue.

Evergreen Marine Corporation (Taiwan) Ltd. primarily engages in global container shipping service covering ocean-going and near-sea shipping line, shipping agency business as well as container freight station business. In 2017, freight revenue was NT\$ 135,358,310 thousand, representing 89.89% of operating revenue. Since ocean-going shipping often lasts for several days, voyages are sometimes completed after the date of balance sheet. Also, demands for freight are consistently sent by forwarders during voyage. Due to the factors mentioned above, freight revenue is recognized under the percentageof-completion method for each vessel during the reporting period.

Despite the Group conducting business worldwide, its transactions are all in small amounts, whereas the freight rate is subject to fluctuation caused by cargo loading rate as well as market competition. Worldwide shipping agencies use a system to record the transactions by entering data including shipping departure, destination, counterparty, transit time, shipping amounts, and freight price for the Group. Therefore, management could recognize freight revenue in accordance with the data on bill of lading reports generated from the system, accompanied by estimation made from past experience and current cargo loading conditions the revenue that would flow in, and calculate the revenue under percentage-ofcompletion method. As the process of recording transactions, communicating with agencies, maintaining the system are done manually, and the estimation of freight revenue are subject to management's judgement, therefore freight revenue involves high uncertainty and is material to the financial statements. Given the conditions mentioned above, we consider the accuracy of freight revenue and the appropriate use of cut-off by the Group and its investee companies as a key audit matter.

How our audit addressed the matter

We performed the following audit procedures on the above key audit matter:

    1. Obtained an understanding of the operation and industry of the Group to assess the reasonableness of policies and procedures on revenue recognition, and confirmed whether it is appropriate to the financial statements.
    1. Obtained an understanding of the procedures of revenue recognition from booking, picking, billing to receiving. Assessed and tested relevant internal controls, including checking freight items and amounts of delivery information against the approved contracts and booking list. In addition, recalculated the accuracy of freight revenue, and ensured its consistency with the bill of lading report.
    1. Obtained the estimated freight income report for vessels underway as of balance sheets date, and inquired with management for the reasonableness of judgement. In addition, checked historical freight revenue for total voyage under each individual vessel, along with comparing with current cargo loading condition as well as actual revenue received after period end to ensure the reasonableness of revenue assumptions.
    1. Confirmed the completeness of vessels underway for the reporting period, including tracking the movements of shipments on the internet to ensure the vessels that depart before period end have been taken into consideration in the freight revenue calculation.
    1. Verified accuracy of data used in calculating percentage of completion under each voyage, including selecting samples and check whether total shipping days shown on the Company's website are in agreement with cruise timetable as well as recalculating shipping days (days between departure and balance sheet date), in order to examine the soundness of percentage applied.

Impairment of property, plant and equipment

Description

Please refer to Note 4(16) for accounting policies on property, plant and equipment, Note 5(2) for uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions applied on impairment of property, plant and equipment, and Note 6(8) for details of property, plant and equipment.

As of December 31, 2017, property, plant and equipment amounted to NT\$ 97,687,454 thousand, constituting 48.82% of total assets, and ship equipment, transport equipment and cargo handling equipment amounted to NT\$ 76,190,454 thousand, accounting for approximately 77.99% of total property, plant and equipment. As new ships have been built and put into operation by many carriers around the world, market supply has exceeded demand. Therefore, the market imbalance led to price competition, resulting to losses for the industry and raising the risk of asset impairment. The valuation of impairment and recoverable amounts are evaluated by the Group using the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from an asset or cash-generating unit compared to the book value. The main assumptions of discount rates used in recoverable amounts, and expected operating revenue growth rates, gross profit, operating profit rates, capital expenditures and discount rates used in future cash flow estimates are subject to management's judgement and involve high uncertainty, and the estimated results are material to the consolidated financial statements. Given the conditions mentioned above, we consider the impairment assessment of ship equipment, transport equipment and cargo handling equipment in the property, plant and equipment under the Group and its investee companies as a key audit matter.

How our audit addressed the matter

We performed the following audit procedures on the above key audit matter:

    1. Obtained an understanding and assessed the relevant policies, internal controls and process applied to valuation of assets impairments.
    1. Interviewed with management regarding the impairment test report, and assessed the reasonableness of discounts rate and the reasonableness of operating revenue, gross profit, operating profit rate, growth rates and capital expenditure that management used in estimating future cash flows by checking actual performance under past operating plans and comparing the performance with industry forecast to evaluate the intention and capability of management.
    1. Checked the parameters of the valuation model and recalculated the valuation model for accuracy.

Other matter – Audit by other independent accountants

We did not audit the financial statements of all the consolidated subsidiaries. Those statements and the information disclosed in Note 13 were performed by other independent accountants whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our audit expressed herein is based solely on the reports of the other independent accountants. The statements reflect that total assets in these subsidiaries amounted to NT\$53,765,827 thousand and NT\$62,747,081 thousand, constituting 26.87% and 33.07% of the total consolidated assets as of December 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively. Net operating revenues in the subsidiaries amounted to NT\$55,681,727 thousand and NT\$46,208,197 thousand, constituting 36.98% and 37.12% of the total consolidated net operating revenues of 2017 and 2016 for the years then ended. In addition, we did not audit the financial statements of all the investee companies accounted for using

equity method. Those statements were audited by other independent accountants whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our audit expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for those investee companies accounted for using equity method and information disclosed in Note 13 related to these long-term equity investments, is based solely on the reports of other independent accountants. Long-term equity investments in these investee companies amounted to NT\$16,239,361 thousand and NT\$15,396,048 thousand, constituting 8.12% and 8.11% of the total consolidated assets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and comprehensive loss (including share of profit or loss and share of other comprehensive income of associates and joint ventures accounted for using equity method) was NT\$1,892,245 thousand and NT\$1,049,924 thousand for the years then ended.

We have also audited the parent company only financial statement of Evergreen Marine Corporation (Taiwan) Ltd. as of and for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 on which we have issued an unqualified opinion with explanatory paragraph thereon.

Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the consolidated financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with theȸRegulations Governing the Preparations of Financial Reports by Securities Issuersȹand the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, 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 Group'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 Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance, including supervisors, are responsible for overseeing the Group's financial reporting process.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated 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 ROC GAAS 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 consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ROC GAAS, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

    1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, 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.
    1. 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 Group.
    1. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
    1. 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 Group'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 Group to cease to continue as a going concern.
    1. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
    1. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are

responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group 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 thought 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 consolidated financial statements 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.

Except for the following, the above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Group's financial condition and financial performance based on the Group's assessment.

A. Amendments to IAS 19, 'Defined benefit plans: Employee contributions'

The amendment allows contributions made by employees or third parties that are linked to service, and do not vary with the length of employee service, to be deducted from the cost of benefits earned in the period that the service is provided. Contributions made by employees or third parties that are linked to service, and vary according to the length of employee service, must be spread over the service period using the same attribution method that is applied to the benefits.

B. Annual improvements to IFRSs 2010-2012 cycle

IFRS 8, 'Operating segments'

The standard is amended to require disclosure of judgements made by management in aggregating operating segments. This amendment also clarifies that a reconciliation of the total of the reportable segments' assets to the entity's assets is required only when segment asset is provided to chief operating decision maker regularly.

Based on the Group's assessment, the amendment will result in an additional disclosure of judgements made by management in aggregating operating segments and a deletion of a reconciliation of segments' assets.

Except for the following, the above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Group's financial condition and financial performance based on the Group's assessment. The quantitative impact will be disclosed when the assessment is complete.

A. IFRS 9, 'Financial instruments'

  • (a) Classification of debt instruments is driven by the entity's business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets, which would be classified as financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income or financial asset measured at amortised cost. Equity instruments would be classified as financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, unless an entity makes an irrevocable election at inception to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument that is not held for trading.
  • (b) The impairment losses of debt instruments are assessed using an 'expected credit loss' approach. An entity assesses at each balance sheet date whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition to recognise 12-month expected credit losses or lifetime expected credit losses (interest revenue would be calculated on the gross carrying amount of the asset before impairment losses occurred); or if the instrument that has objective evidence of impairment, interest revenue after the impairment would be calculated on the book value of net carrying amount (i.e. net of credit allowance). The Group shall always measure the loss allowance at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses for trade receivables that do not contain a significant financing component.

  • (c) The amended general hedge accounting requirements align hedge accounting more closely with an entity's risk management strategy. Risk components of non-financial items and a group of items can be designated as hedged items. The standard relaxes the requirements for hedge effectiveness, removing the 80-125% bright line, and introduces the concept of 'rebalancing'; while its risk management objective remains unchanged, an entity shall rebalance the hedged item or the hedging instrument for the purpose of maintaining the hedge ratio.

  • B. IFRS 15, 'Revenue from contracts with customers'

IFRS 15, 'Revenue from contracts with customers'replaces IAS 11, 'Construction contracts', IAS 18, 'Revenue' and relevant interpretations. According to IFRS 15, revenue is recognised when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. A customer obtains control of goods or services when a customer has the ability to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the asset.

The core principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity recognises revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. An entity recognises revenue in accordance with that core principle by applying the following steps:

  • Step 1: Identify contracts with customer
  • Step 2: Identify separate performance obligations in the contract(s)
  • Step 3: Determine the transaction price
  • Step 4: Allocate the transaction price.
  • Step 5: Recognise revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied.

Further, IFRS 15 includes a set of comprehensive disclosure requirements that requires an entity to disclose sufficient information to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.

C. Amendments to IAS 7, 'Disclosure initiative'

This amendment requires that an entity shall provide more disclosures related to changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and non-cash changes.

The Group expects to provide additional disclosure to explain the changes in liabilities arising from financing activities.

When adopting the new standards endorsed by the FSC effective from 2018, the Group will apply the new rules under IFRS 9 retrospectively from January 1, 2018, with the practical expedients permitted under the statement. The significant effects of applying the new standards as of January 1, 2018 are summarized below:

A. In accordance with IFRS 9, the Group expects to reclassify available-for-sale financial assets in the amount of \$2,282,619 by increasing financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income in the amount of \$2,282,619.

  • B. In accordance with IFRS 9, the Group expects to reclassify held-to-maturity financial assets of \$100,000 by increasing financial assets at amortised cost in the amount of \$100,000.
  • C. In line with the regulations under IFRS 9 on provision for impairment, other equity interest will have to be decreased by \$192,156 and retained earnings increased by \$192,156.

Except for the following, the above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Group's financial condition and financial performance based on the Group's assessment. The quantitative impact will be disclosed when the assessment is complete.

A. IFRS 16, 'Leases'

IFRS 16, 'Leases', replaces IAS 17, 'Leases' and related interpretations and SICs. The standard requires lessees to recognise a 'right-of-use asset' and a lease liability (except for those leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets). The accounting stays the same for lessors, which is to classify their leases as either finance leases or operating leases and account for those two types of leases differently. IFRS 16 only requires enhanced disclosures to be provided by lessors.

B. Amendments to IAS 19, 'Plan amendment, curtailment or settlement'

When a change to a plan take place, the amendments require a company to use the updated assumptions from this remeasurement to determine current service cost and net interest for the remainder of the reporting period after the change to the plan.

C. Annual improvements to IFRSs 2015-2017 cycle

(a) Amendments to IFRS 3, 'Business combinations'

The amendments clarified that obtaining control of a business that is a joint operation is a business combination achieved in stages. The acquirer should remeasure its previously held interest in the joint operation at fair value at of the acquisition date.

(b) Amendments to IAS 12, 'Income taxes'

The amendment clarified that the income tax consequences of dividends on financial instruments classified as equity should be recognised according to where the past transactions or events that generated distributable profits were recognised. These requirements apply to all income tax consequences of dividends.

(d) Amendments to IAS 23, 'Borrowing costs'

The amendments clarified that if a specific borrowing remains outstanding after the related qualifying asset is ready for its intended use or sale, it becomes part of general borrowings.

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

These consolidated financial statements of the Group have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers", International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the FSC (collectively referred herein as the "IFRSs").

(2) Basis of preparation

  • A. Except for the following items, the 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) Available-for-sale financial assets measured at fair value.
  • (c) Defined benefit liabilities recognised based on the net amount of pension fund assets less present value of defined benefit obligation.
  • B. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRSs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement 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 structured entities) controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when the Group is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Consolidation of subsidiaries begins from the date the Group obtains control of the subsidiaries and ceases when the Group loses control of the subsidiaries.
  • (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 noncontrolling 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.
  • (e) When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, the Group remeasures any investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value. That fair value is regarded as the fair value on initial recognition of a financial asset or the cost on initial recognition of the associate or joint venture. 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. When the Group assesses that there has been objective evidence of impairment and an impairment loss has occurred, accounting for impairment is made as follows according to the category of financial assets:
  • (a) Financial assets measured at cost

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 assets, 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.

(b) Available-for-sale financial assets

The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's acquisition cost (less any principal repayment and amortisation) and current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss, and is reclassified from 'other comprehensive income' to 'profit or loss'. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of an investment in a debt instrument increases, and the increase can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, such impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss. Impairment loss of an investment in an equity instrument recognised in profit or loss shall not be reversed through profit or loss. Impairment loss is recognised and reversed by adjusting the carrying amount of the asset through the use of an impairment allowance account.

(12) 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 contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset have been transferred; however, the Group has not retained control of the financial asset.

(13) 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.

(14) Inventories

Inventories refer to fuel inventories and steel inventories. Fuel inventories are physically measured by the crew of each ship and reported back to the Head Office through telegraph for recording purposes at balance sheet date. Valuation of inventories is based on the exchange rate prevailing at balance sheet date.

The perpetual inventory system is adopted for steel inventory recognition. Steel inventories are stated at cost. The cost is determined using the weighted-average method. At the end of period, inventories are evaluated at the lower of cost or net realisable value, and the individual item approach is used in the comparison of cost and net realisable value. The calculation of net realisable value should be based on the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, net of estimated costs of completion and estimated selling expenses.

(15) 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.
  • 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 and loss 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 using 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 and 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 retains significant influence over this associate, 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 and 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 profit or loss proportionately.
  • (16) 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. Each part of an item of property, plant, and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item must be depreciated separately.
  • 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:

  • (17) Leased assets/ operating leases (lessee)
  • A. Based on the terms of a lease contract, a lease is classified as a finance lease if the Group assumes substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the leased asset.
    • (a) A finance lease is recognised as an asset and a liability at the lease's commencement at the lower of the fair value of the leased asset or the present value of the minimum lease payments.
    • (b) The minimum lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and the reduction of the outstanding liability. The finance charges are allocated to each period over the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.
    • (c) Property, plant and equipment held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. If there is no reasonable certainty that the Group will obtain ownership at the end of the lease, the asset shall be depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and its useful life.
  • B. Payments made under an operating lease (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
  • C. The accounting treatment of sale and leaseback transactions depends on the substance of the transaction. If sale and finance leaseback is in substance a financing transaction, the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying value of the asset is deferred and amortised to the income statement over the lease term. If the sale price is below the fair value, the difference between sale price and carrying amount should be recognised immediately except that, if a loss arising is compensated by future rent at below market price, it should be deferred and amortised in proportion to the rent payments over the period for which the asset is expected to be used. If the sale price is above the fair value, the excess of proceeds over fair value should be deferred and amortised over the period for which the asset is expected to be used.
  • (18) Investment property

An investment property is stated initially at its cost and measured subsequently using the cost model. Except for land, investment property is depreciated on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 20 ~ 60 years.

(19) Intangible assets

Computer software is stated at cost and amortised on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 3 years.

(20) 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 recognizing impairment loss for an asset in prior years no longer exist or diminish, the impairment loss is reversed. The increased carrying amount due to reversal should not be more than what the depreciated or amortised historical cost would have been if the impairment had not been recognised.

(21) 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 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.
  • (22) Accounts payable

Accounts payable are obligations to pay for goods orservices 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 initial invoice amount as effect of discounting is immaterial.

(23) Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss

A. Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are financial liabilities held for trading or financial liabilities designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition. Financial liabilities are classified in this category of held for trading if acquired principally for the purpose of repurchasing in the short-term. Derivatives are also categorized as financial liabilities held for trading unless they are designated as hedges. Financial liabilities that meet one of the following criteria are designated as at fair value through profit or loss on initial recognition:

  • (a) Hybrid (combined) contracts; or
  • (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 policy.
  • B. Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognised at fair value. Related transaction costs are expensed in profit or loss. These financial liabilities are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value, and any changes in the fair value of these financial liabilities

are recognised in profit or loss. Derivative liabilities that are linked to equity instruments which do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured, and that must be settled by delivery of such unquoted equity instruments are presented in 'financial liabilities measured at cost'.

(24) Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability specified in the contract is discharged or cancelled or expires.

(25) Offsetting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and reported in the net amount 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.

  • (26) Financial liabilities and equity instruments
  • A. Ordinary corporate bonds issued by the Group are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Ordinary corporate bonds are subsequently stated at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is accounted for as the premium or discount on bonds payable and presented as an addition to or deduction from bonds payable, which is amortised in profit or loss as an adjustment to the 'finance costs' over the period of bond circulation using the effective interest method.
  • B. Convertible corporate bonds issued by the Group contain conversion options (that is, the bondholders have the right to convert the bonds into the Group's common shares by exchanging a fixed amount of cash for a fixed number of common shares), call options and put options. The Group classifies the bonds payable and derivative features embedded in convertible corporate bonds on initial recognition as a financial asset, a financial liability or an equity instrument. Convertible corporate bonds are accounted for as follows:
    • (a) Call options and put options embedded in convertible corporate bonds are recognised initially at net fair value as 'financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss'. They are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value on each balance sheet date; the gain or loss is recognised as 'gain or loss on valuation of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss'.
    • (b) Bonds payable of convertible corporate bonds is initially recognised at fair value and subsequently stated at amortised cost. Any difference between the proceeds and the redemption value is accounted for as the premium or discount on bonds payable and presented as an addition to or deduction from bonds payable, which is amortised in profit or loss as an adjustment to the 'finance costs' over the period of bond circulation using the effective interest method.
    • (c) Conversion options embedded in convertible corporate bonds issued by the Group, which meet the definition of an equity instrument, are initially recognised in 'capital surplus—stock

warrants' at the residual amount of total issue price less amounts of 'financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss' and 'bonds payable—net' as stated above. Conversion options are not subsequently remeasured.

  • (d) Any transaction costs directly attributable to the issuance of convertible corporate bonds are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to the allocation of proceeds.
  • (e) When bondholders exercise conversion options, the liability component of the bonds (including 'bonds payable' and 'financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss') shall be remeasured on the conversion date. The book value of common shares issued due to the conversion shall be based on the adjusted book value of the abovementioned liability component plus the book value of capital surplus - share options.
  • (27) Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities
  • A. Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at their fair value. Any changes in the fair value are recognised in profit or loss.
  • B. The Group designates certain derivatives as hedges of a particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction (cash flow hedge).
  • C. The Group documents at the inception of the transaction the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategy for undertaking various hedging transactions. The Group also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items.
  • D. The full fair value of a hedging derivative is classified as a non-current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is more than 12 months, and as a current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is less than 12 months. Trading derivatives are classified as current assets or liabilities.
  • E. Cash flow hedge
    • (a) The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualified as cash flow hedges is recognised in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the statement of comprehensive income within 'other gains and losses'.
    • (b) Amounts accumulated in other comprehensive income are reclassified into profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss. The gain or loss relating to the effective portion of interest rate swaps hedging variable rate borrowings is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within 'finance costs'. However, when the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or financial liability, the gains and losses previously deferred in other comprehensive income are reclassified into profit or loss in the periods when the asset acquired or the liability assumed affects profit or loss. The deferred amounts are ultimately recognised in operating costs.

(c) When a hedging instrument expires, or is sold, cancelled or executed, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in other comprehensive income at that time remains in other comprehensive income. When a forecast transaction occurs or is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in other comprehensive income is transferred to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged forecast cash flow affects profit or loss.

(28) 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 expense in that period when the employees render service.

B. Pensions

(a) Defined contribution plans

For defined contribution plans, the contributions are recognised as pension expense 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 obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets, together with adjustments for unrecognised past service costs. The net defined benefit 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. Remeasurements arising on defined benefit plans are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise and are recorded as retained earnings.
  • iii. Past service costs are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
  • 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' compensation and directors' and supervisors' remuneration

Employees' compensation and directors' and supervisors' remuneration are recognised as expense and liability, provided that such recognition is required under legal or constructive obligation and those amounts can be reliably estimated. Any difference between the resolved amounts and the subsequently actual distributed amounts is accounted for as changes in estimates. If employee compensation is paid by shares, the Group calculates the number of shares based on the closing price at the previous day of the board meeting resolution.

(29) 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 expense 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. 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 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 utilized. 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 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 acquisitions of equipment or technology, research and development expenditures and equity investments to the extent that it is possible that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax credits can be utilised.

(30) 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 on the effective date of new shares issuance.

(31) Revenue recognition

A. Sales of goods

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable taking into account of business 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. Sales of 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.

(32) 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. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING 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

Financial assets—impairment of equity investments

The Group follows the guidance of IAS 39 to determine whether a financial asset—equity investment is impaired. This determination requires significant judgement. In making this judgement, the Group evaluates, among other factors, the duration and extent to which the fair value of an equity investment is less than its cost and the financial health of and short-term business outlook for the investee, including factors such as industry and sector performance, changes in technology and operational and financing cash flow.

If the decline of the fair value of an individual equity investment below cost was considered significant or prolonged, the Group would transfer the accumulated fair value adjustments recognised in other comprehensive income on the impaired available-for-sale financial assets to profit or loss or being the recognition of the impairment loss on the impaired financial assets measured at cost in profit or loss.

  • (2) Critical accounting estimates and assumptions
  • A. Revenue recognition

Revenue from delivering services and related costs are recognised under the percentage-ofcompletion 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.

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 utilized and industrial characteristics. Any changes of economic circumstances or estimates due to the change of Group strategy might cause material impairment on assets in the future.

As of December 31, 2017, the Group had property, plant, equipment and intangible assets amounting to \$97,687,454 and \$159,667, respectively.

C. 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 cannot be recovered. The Group assesses the recoverable amounts of an investment accounted for using equity method based on the present value of the Group's share of expected future cash flows of the investee, and analyzes the reasonableness of related assumptions.

D. Financial assets—fair value measurement of unlisted stocks without active market The fair value of unlisted stocks held by the Group that are not traded in an active market is determined considering those companies' recent funding raising activities, fair value assessment of other companies of the same type, market conditions and other economic indicators existing on balance sheet date. Any changes in these judgements and estimates will impact the fair value measurement of these unlisted stocks. Please refer to Note 12(3) for the financial instruments fair value information.

As of December 31, 2017, the carrying amount of unlisted stocks without active market was \$1,137,645.

(16) Pension

A.(a) In accordance with the Labor Pension Act ("the Act"), effective July 1, 2005, which adopted a defined contribution scheme, employees of the Company and its subsidiary-TTSC may choose to be subject to either the Act, maintaining their seniority before the enforcement of the Act, or the pension mechanism of the Labor Standard Law. Under the defined benefit pension plan, two units are accrued for each year of service for the first 15 years and one unit for each additional year thereafter, subject to a maximum of 45 units. Pension benefits are based on the number of units accrued and the average monthly salaries and wages of the last 6 months prior to retirement. The Company and its subsidiary-TTSC contribute monthly an amount equal to 15% of the employees' monthly salaries and wages to the retirement fund deposited with the Trust Department of Bank of Taiwan under the name of the Labor Pension Fund Supervisory Committee. Also, the Company would assess the balance in the aforementioned labor pension reserve account by the end of December 31, every year. If the account balance is insufficient to pay the pension calculated by the aforementioned method, to the employees expected to be qualified for retirement next year, the Company will make contributions to cover the deficit by next March.

  • (b) The employees with R.O.C. nationality of the Group's subsidiaries, Evergreen Marine (Hong Kong) Ltd., Greencompass Marine S. A. and Evergreen Marine (UK) Limited, adopted the Act. Under the defined benefit pension plan, two units are accrued for each year of service for the first 15 years and one unit for each additional year thereafter, subject to a maximum of 45 units. Pension benefits are based on the number of units accrued and the average monthly salaries and wages of the last 6 months prior to retirement.

(e) The Bank of Taiwan was commissioned to manage the Fund of the Company's and its domestic subsidiaries-TTSC's defined benefit pension plan in accordance with the Fund's annual investment and utilisation plan and the "Regulations for Revenues, Expenditures, Safeguard and Utilisation of the Labor Retirement Fund" (Article 6: The scope of utilization for the Fund includes deposit in domestic or foreign financial institutions, investment in domestic or foreign listed, over-the-counter, or private placement equity securities, investment in domestic or foreign real estate securitization products, etc.). With regard to the utilisation of the Fund, its minimum earnings in the annual distributions on the final financial statements shall be no less than the earnings attainable from the amounts accrued from twoyear time deposits with the interest rates offered by local banks. If the earning is less than aforementioned rates, government shall make payment for the deficit after being authorized by the Regulator. The Group has no right to participate in managing and operating that fund and hence the Group is unable to disclose the classification of plan asset fair value in accordance with IAS 19 paragraph 142. The composition of fair value of plan assets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 is given in the Annual Labor Retirement Fund Utilisation Report announced by the government.

(f) The principal actuarial assumptions used were as follows:

Assumptions regarding future mortality experience are set based on actuarial advice in accordance with published statistics and experience in each territory.

Because the main actuarial assumption changed, the present value of defined benefit obligation is affected. The analysis was as follows:

Discount rate Future

The sensitivity analysis above is based on one assumption which changed while the other conditions remain unchanged. In practice, more than one assumption may change all at once. The method of analysing sensitivity and the method of calculating net pension liability in the balance sheet are the same.

  • (g) Expected contributions to the defined benefit pension plans of the Company and its subsidiary-TTSC for the year ending December 31, 2018 amounts to \$96,497.
  • (h) As of December 31, 2017, the weighted average duration of the retirement plan is 9 ~ 21 years.
  • B. (a) Effective July 1, 2005, the Company and its domestic subsidiary-TTSC have established a defined contribution pension plan (the "New Plan") under the Labor Pension Act (the"Act"), covering all regular employees with R.O.C. nationality. Under the New Plan, the Company and its domestic subsidiary-TTSC contribute monthly an amount based on 6% of the employees' monthly salaries and wages to the employees'individual pension accounts at the Bureau of Labor Insurance. The benefits accrued are paid monthly or in lump sum upon termination of employment.

(b) The pension costs under defined contribution pension plans of the Group for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 were \$186,442 and \$184,067, respectively.

(17) Capital stock

  • A. As of December 31, 2017, the Company's authorized capital was \$50,000,000, and the paid-in capital was \$ 40,123,560, consisting of 4,012,356 thousand shares of common stocks with a par value of \$10 (in dollars) per share. All proceeds from shares issued have been collected.
  • B. On August 11, 2017, the Board of Directors of the Company resolved to increase capital of \$5,000,000 by issuing 500,000 thousand shares at a par value of NT\$10. Of which 50,000 thousand shares are reserved for employee stock purchase plan. The proposal of capital increase has been reported and become effective on December 5, 2017. The issue price is NT\$15.3 per share and amount of shares was \$7,711,222. All proceeds from share issuance was completed on December 27, 2017.

(18) Capital surplus

A. Pursuant to the R.O.C. Company Act, capital surplus arising from paid-in capital in excess of par value on issuance of common stocks and donations can be used to cover accumulated deficit or to issue new stocks or cash to shareholders in proportion to their share ownership, provided that the Company has no accumulated deficit. Further, the R.O.C. Securities and Exchange Law requires that the amount of capital surplus to be capitalised mentioned above should not exceed 10% of the paid-in capital each year. Capital surplus should not be used to cover accumulated deficit unless the legal reserve is insufficient.

Price risk

  • i. The Group is exposed to equity securities price risk because of investments held by the Group and classified on the consolidated balance sheet either as available-for-sale or at fair value through profit or loss. The Group is not exposed to commodity price risk. To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the Group diversifies its portfolio. Diversification of the portfolio is done in accordance with the limits set by the Group.
  • ii. The Group's investments in equity securities comprise domestic listed and unlisted stocks. The prices of equity securities would change due to the change of the future value of investee companies. If the prices of these equity securities had increased/decreased by 1% with all other variables held constant, equity would have increased/decreased by \$22,364 and \$26,514 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, as a result of gains/losses on equity securities classified as available-for-sale.

Interest rate risk

  • i. The Group's interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk which is partially offset by cash and cash equivalents held at variable rates. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk. During the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Group's borrowings at variable rate were denominated in the NTD, USD and GBP.
  • ii. At December 31, 2017 and 2016, if interest rates on borrowings had been 1% higher/lower with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 would have been \$702,141 and \$795,571 lower/higher, respectively, mainly as a result of higher/lower interest expense on floating rate borrowings.

(b)Credit risk (b)Credit risk (b)Credit 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 in accordance with limits set by the Board of Directors. The utilisation of credit limits is regularly monitored. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to wholesale and retail customers, including outstanding receivables and committed transactions.

We are independent of the Company in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants in the Republic of China (the "Code"), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained along with the report of other independent auditors are sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

The key audit matters of the parent company only financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 are as follows:

Accuracy of freight revenue

Description

Please refer to Note 4(29) for accounting policies on revenue recognition, Note 5(2) for uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions applied on revenue recognition, and Note 6(20) for details of sales revenue.

Evergreen Marine Corporation (Taiwan) Ltd. primarily engages in global container shipping service covering ocean-going and near-sea shipping line, shipping agency business as well as container freight station business. In 2017, freight revenue was NT\$ 27,548,082 thousand, representing 95.33 % of operating revenue. Since ocean-going shipping often lasts for several days, voyages are sometimes completed after the balance sheet date. Also, demands for freight are consistently sent by forwarders during voyage. Due to the factors mentioned above, freight revenue is recognized under the percentageof-completion method for each vessel of which the service has been provided during the reporting period.

Despite the Company conducting business worldwide, its transactions are all in small amounts, whereas the freight rate is subject to fluctuation caused by cargo loading rate as well as market competition. Worldwide shipping agencies use a system to record the transactions by entering data including shipping departure, destination, counterparty, transit time, shipping amounts, and freight price for the Company. Therefore, management could recognize freight revenue in accordance with the data on bill of lading reports generated from system, accompanied by estimation made from past experience and current cargo loading conditions the revenue that would flow in, and calculate the revenue under percentage-ofcompletion method. As the process of recording transactions, communicating with agencies, maintaining the system are done manually, and the estimation of freight revenue is subject to management's judgement, therefore freight revenue involves high uncertainty and is material to the financial statements. Given the conditions as described above, we consider the accuracy of freight revenue and the appropriate use of cut-off by the Company and its investee companies as a key audit matter.

How our audit addressed the matter

We performed the following audit procedures on the above key audit matter:

    1. Obtained an understanding of the operation and industry of the Company to assess the reasonableness of policies and procedures on revenue recognition, and confirmed whether it is appropriate to the financial statements.
    1. Obtained an understanding of the procedures of revenue recognition from booking, picking, billing to receiving. Assessed and tested relevant internal controls, including checking freight items and amounts of delivery information against the approved contracts and booking list. In addition, recalculated the accuracy of freight revenue, and ensured its consistency with the bill of lading report.
    1. Obtained the estimated freight income report for vessels underway as of balance sheets date, and inquired with management for the reasonableness of judgment. In addition, checked historical freight revenue for total voyage under each individual vessel, along with comparing with current cargo loading condition as well as actual revenue received after period end to ensure the reasonableness of revenue assumptions.
    1. Confirmed the completeness of vessels underway for the reporting period, including tracking the movements of shipments on the internet to ensure the vessels that depart before period end have been taken into consideration in the freight revenue calculation.
    1. Verified accuracy of data used in calculating percentage of completion under each voyage, including selecting samples and check whether total shipping days shown on the Company's website are in agreement with cruise timetable as well as recalculating shipping days (days between departure and balance sheet date), in order to examine the soundness of percentage applied.

Impairment of property, plant and equipment

Description

Please refer to Note 4(15) for accounting policies on property, plant and equipment, Note 5(2) for uncertainty of accounting estimates and assumptions applied on impairment of property, plant and equipment, and Note 6(8) for details of property, plant and equipment.

As of December 31, 2017, property, plant and equipment amounted to NT\$ 27,118,687 thousand, constituting 22.45% of total assets, and ship equipment, transport equipment and cargo handling equipment amounted to NT\$ 26,021,184 thousand, accounting for approximately 95.95% of total property, plant and equipment. As new ships have been built and put into operation by many carriers around the world, market supply has exceeded demand. Therefore, the market imbalance led to price competition, resulting to losses for the industry and raising the risk of asset impairment. The valuation of impairment and recoverable amounts are evaluated by the Company using the present value of the future cash flows expected to be derived from an asset or cash-generating unit compared to the book value. The main assumptions of discounts rates used in recoverable amounts, and expected operating revenue growth rates, gross profit, operating profit rates, capital expenditures and discount rates used in future cash flow estimates are subject to management's judgement and involve high uncertainty, and the estimated results are material to the financial statements. Given the conditions as described above exist in the Company and its investee companies using equity method, we consider the impairment assessment of ship equipment, transport equipment and cargo handling equipment in the property, plant and equipment under the Company and its investee companies as a key audit matter.

How our audit addressed the matter

We performed the following audit procedures on the above key audit matter:

    1. Obtained an understanding and assessed the relevant policies, internal controls and process applied to valuation of assets impairments.
    1. Interviewed with management regarding the impairment test report, and assessed the reasonableness of discounts rate and the reasonableness of operating revenue, gross profit, operating profit rate, growth rates and capital expenditure that management used in estimating future cash flows by checking actual performance under past operating plans and comparing the performance with industry forecast to evaluate the intention and capability of management.
    1. Checked the parameters of the valuation model and recalculated the valuation model for accuracy.

Other matter – Audit by other independent accountants

We did not audit the financial statements of all the investee companies accounted for using equity method. Those statements were audited by other independent accountants whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for those investee companies accounted for using equity method and information disclosed in Note 13 relating to these long-term equity investments, is based solely on the reports of the other independent accountants. Long-term equity investments in these investee companies amounted to NT\$ 20,592,791 thousand and NT\$ 19,659,814 thousand, constituting 17.05% and 18.54% of the total assets as of December 31, 2017, and 2016, respectively, and comprehensive loss (including share of profit or loss and share of other comprehensive income of associates and joint ventures accounted for using equity method) was NT\$ 1,848,434 thousand and NT\$ 3,321,665 thousand for the years then ended.

Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the parent company only financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with the "Regulations Governing the Preparations 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 supervisors, are responsible for overseeing the Company's financial reporting process.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the parent company only financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the parent company only 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 ROC GAAS 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 parent company only financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ROC GAAS, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

    1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the parent company only financial statements, 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.
    1. 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.
    1. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.
    1. 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.
    1. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the parent company only financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. 6.

Except for the following, the above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Company's financial condition and financial performance based on the Company's assessment.

A. Amendments to IAS 19, 'Defined benefit plans: Employee contributions'

The amendment allows contributions made by employees or third parties that are linked to service, and do not vary with the length of employee service, to be deducted from the cost of benefits earned in the period that the service is provided. Contributions made by employees or third parties that are linked to service, and vary according to the length of employee service, must be spread over the service period using the same attribution method that is applied to the benefits.

B. Annual improvements to IFRSs 2010-2012 cycle

IFRS 8, 'Operating segments'

The standard is amended to require disclosure of judgements made by management in aggregating operating segments. This amendment also clarifies that a reconciliation of the total of the reportable segments' assets to the entity's assets is required only when segment asset is provided to chief operating decision maker regularly.

Based on the Company's assessment, the amendment will result in an additional disclosure of judgements made by management in aggregating operating segments and a deletion of a reconciliation of segments' assets.

Except for the following, the above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Company's financial condition and financial performance based on the Company's assessment. The quantitative impact will be disclosed when the assessment is complete.

A. IFRS 9, 'Financial instruments'

  • (a) Classification of debt instruments is driven by the entity's business model and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets, which would be classified as financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, financial asset measured at fair value through other comprehensive income or financial asset measured at amortised cost. Equity instruments would be classified as financial asset at fair value through profit or loss, unless an entity makes an irrevocable election at inception to present in other comprehensive income subsequent changes in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument that is not held for trading.
  • (b) The impairment losses of debt instruments are assessed using an 'expected credit loss' approach. An entity assesses at each balance sheet date whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk on that instrument since initial recognition to recognise 12-month expected credit losses or lifetime expected credit losses (interest revenue would be calculated on the gross carrying amount of the asset before impairment losses occurred); or if the instrument that has objective evidence of impairment, interest revenue after the impairment would be calculated on the book value of net carrying amount (i.e. net of credit allowance).
  • (c) The amended general hedge accounting requirements align hedge accounting more closely with an entity's risk management strategy. Risk components of non-financial items and a group of items can be designated as hedged items. The standard relaxes the requirements for hedge effectiveness, removing the 80-125% bright line, and introduces the concept of 'rebalancing'; while its risk management objective remains unchanged, an entity shall rebalance the hedged item or the hedging instrument for the purpose of maintaining the hedge ratio.

B. IFRS 15, 'Revenue from contracts with customers'

IFRS 15, 'Revenue from contracts with customers'replaces IAS 11, 'Construction contracts', IAS 18, 'Revenue' and relevant interpretations. According to IFRS 15, revenue is recognised when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services. A customer obtains control of goods or services when a customer has the ability to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from, the asset.

The core principle of IFRS 15 is that an entity recognises revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. An entity recognises revenue in accordance with that core principle by applying the following steps:

Step 1: Identify contracts with customer.

Step 2: Identify separate performance obligations in the contract(s).

Step 3: Determine the transaction price.

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price.

Step 5: Recognise revenue when the performance obligation is satisfied.

Further, IFRS 15 includes a set of comprehensive disclosure requirements that requires an entity to disclose sufficient information to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.

C. Amendments to IAS 7, 'Disclosure initiative'

This amendment requires that an entity shall provide more disclosures related to changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including both changes arising from cash flows and non-cash changes.

The Company expects to provide additional disclosure to explain the changes in liabilities arising from financing activities.

When adopting the new standards endorsed by the FSC effective from 2018, the Company will apply the new rules under IFRS 9 retrospectively from January 1, 2018, with the practical expedients permitted under the statement. Further, the Company expects to adopt IFRS 15 using the modified retrospective approach. The significant effects of applying the new standards as of January 1, 2018 are summarised below:

  • A. The effect of the adoption of the new standard is the reclassification of financial assets in the amount of \$1,297,929 from available-for-sale financial assets-non-current to financial assets at fair value through other comprehensive income in accordance with classification rules of IFRS 9.
  • B. In line with the regulations under IFRS 9 on provision for impairment, other equity interest will have to be decreased by \$192,156 and retained earnings increased by \$192,156.
  • C. In accordance with IFRS 9, the Company expects to reclassify held-to-maturity financial assets of \$100,000 by increasing financial assets at amortised cost in the amount of \$100,000.

Except for the following, the above standards and interpretations have no significant impact to the Company's financial condition and financial performance based on the Company's assessment. The quantitative impact will be disclosed when the assessment is complete.

A. IFRS 16, 'Leases'

IFRS 16, 'Leases', replaces IAS 17, 'Leases' and related interpretations and SICs. The standard requires lessees to recognise a 'right-of-use asset' and a lease liability (except for those leases with terms of 12 months or less and leases of low-value assets). The accounting stays the same for lessors, which is to classify their leases as either finance leases or operating leases and account for those two types of leases differently. IFRS 16 only requires enhanced disclosures to be provided by lessors.

B. Amendments to IAS 19, 'Plan amendment, curtailment or settlement'

When a change to a plan take place the amendments require a company to use the updated assumptions from this remeasurement to determine current service cost and net interest for the remainder of the reporting period after the change to the plan.

  • C. Annual improvements to IFRSs 2015-2017 cycle
  • (a) Amendments to IFRS 3, 'Business combinations'

The amendments clarified that obtaining control of a business that is a joint operation is a business combination achieved in stages. The acquirer should remeasure its previously held interest in the joint operation at fair value at of the acquisition date.

(b) Amendments to IAS 12, 'Income taxes'

The amendment clarified that the income tax consequences of dividends on financial instruments classified as equity should be recognised according to where the past transactions or events that generated distributable profits were recognised. These requirements apply to all income tax consequences of dividends.

(c) Amendments to IAS 23, 'Borrowing costs'

The amendments clarified that if a specific borrowing remains outstanding after the related qualifying asset is ready for its intended use or sale, it becomes part of general borrowings.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these parent company only financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the periods presented, unless otherwise stated.

(1) Compliance statement

These parent company only financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the "Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers".

  • (2) Basis of preparation
  • A.Except for the following items, these parent company only 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)Available-for-sale financial assets measured at fair value.
    • (c)Defined benefit liabilities recognised based on the net amount of pension fund assets less present value of defined benefit obligation.
  • B.The preparation of financial statements in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the FSC (collectively referred herein as the "IFRSs") requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Company's accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the parent company only financial statements are disclosed in Note 5.
  • (3) Foreign currency translation

Items included in the financial statements of each of the Company's entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (the "functional currency"). The parent company only financial statements are presented in New Taiwan Dollars, which is the Company's functional and 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 recognized 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 retranslated at the exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Exchange differences arising upon re-translation at the balance sheet date are recognized 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 recognized in profit or loss as part of the fair value gain or loss. Nonmonetary 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 recognized 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 other 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 company entities and associates 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 recognized in other comprehensive income.
  • (b)When the foreign operation partially disposed of or sold is an associate, 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. In addition, even when the Company retains partial interest in the former foreign associate after losing significant influence over the former foreign associate, 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 when the Company retains partial interest in the former foreign subsidiary after losing control of the former foreign subsidiary, such transactions should be accounted for as disposal of all interest in the foreign operation.

  • (4) 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 realized, 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 realized 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 settle 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 settled within the normal operating cycle;
    • (b)Liabilities arising mainly from trading activities;
    • (c)Liabilities that are to be settled 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.
  • (5) Cash equivalents

Cash equivalents refer to short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. With due date within one year time deposits that meet the definition above and are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments in operations are classified as cash equivalents.

  • (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 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 (combined) contracts; or
    • (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 at fair value through profit or loss are recognized and derecognized using trade date accounting.
  • C.Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are initially recognized 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 recognized in profit or loss.
  • (7) Available-for-sale financial assets
  • A.Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories.
  • B.On a regular way purchase or sale basis, available-for-sale financial assets are recognized and derecognized using trade date accounting.
  • C.Available-for-sale financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs. These financial assets are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value, and any changes in the fair value of these financial assets are recognized in other comprehensive income.
  • (8) Held-to-maturity financial assets
  • A.Held-to-maturity financial assets are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity date that the Company has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity other than those that meet the definition of loans and receivables and those that are designated as at fair value through profit or loss or as available-for-sale on initial recognition.
  • B.On a regular way purchase or sale basis, held-to-maturity financial assets are recognized and derecognized using trade date accounting.
  • C.Held-to-maturity financial assets are initially recognized at fair value on the trade date plus transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. Amortization of a premium or a discount on such assets is recognized in profit or loss.
  • (9) Notes, accounts and other receivables

Notes and accounts receivable are claims resulting from the sale of goods or services. Receivables arising from transactions other than the sale of goods or services are classified as other receivables. Notes, accounts and other receivables are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. However, shortterm accounts receivable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as effect of discounting is immaterial.

(10) Impairment of financial assets

  • A.The Company assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or a company 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 company of financial assets that can be reliably estimated.
  • B.The criteria that the Company 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 Company, 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 reorganization;

  • (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 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;
  • (h)A significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of an investment in an equity instrument below its cost.
  • C.When the Company assesses that there has been objective evidence of impairment and an impairment loss has occurred, accounting for impairment is made as follows according to the category of financial assets:
  • (a)Financial assets measured at amortised cost

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 the financial asset's original effective interest rate, and is recognised in profit or loss. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed its amortised cost that would have been at the date of reversal had the impairment loss not been recognised previously. Impairment loss is recognised and reversed by adjusting the carrying amount of the asset through the use of an impairment allowance account.

(b)Available-for-sale financial assets

The amount of the impairment loss is measured as the difference between the asset's acquisition cost (less any principal repayment and amortisation) and current fair value, less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit or loss, and is reclassified from 'other comprehensive income' to 'profit or loss'. If, in a subsequent period, the fair value of an investment in a debt instrument increases, and the increase can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised, such impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss. Impairment loss of an investment in an equity instrument recognised in profit or loss shall not be reversed through profit or loss. Impairment loss is recognised and reversed by adjusting the carrying amount of the asset through the use of an impairment allowance account.

(11) Derecognition of financial assets

The Company derecognizes a financial asset when one of the following conditions is met:

A.The cash flows from the financial asset have been received.

  • B.The contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset have been transferred and the Company has transferred substantially all risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset.
  • C.The contractual rights to receive cash flows from the financial asset have been transferred; however, the Company has not retained control of the financial asset.
  • (12) Operating 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.

(13) Inventories

Inventories refer to fuel inventories and steel inventories. Fuel inventories are physically measured by the crew of each ship and reported back to the Head Office through telegraph for recording purposes at balance sheet date. Valuation of inventories is based on the exchange rate prevailing at balance sheet date.

At the end of period, inventories are evaluated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, and the individual item approach is used in the comparison of cost and net realizable value. The calculation of net realizable value should be based on the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, net of estimated costs of completion and estimated selling expenses.

  • (14) Investments accounted for using equity method / subsidiaries and associates
  • A.Subsidiary is an entity where the Company has the right to dominate its finance and operation policies (includes special purpose entity), normally the Company owns more than 50 percent of the voting rights directly or indirectly in that entity. Subsidiaries are accounted for under the equity method in the Company's parent company only financial statements.
  • B.Unrealized gains or losses resulted from inter-company transactions with subsidiaries are eliminated. Necessary adjustments are made to the accounting policies of subsidiaries, to be consistent with the accounting policies of the Company.

  • C.After acquisition of subsidiaries, the Company recognizes proportionately for the share of profit and loss and other comprehensive incomes in the income statement as part of the Company's profit and loss and other comprehensive income, respectively. When the share of loss from a subsidiary exceeds the carrying amount of Company's interests in that subsidiary, the Company continues to recognize its shares in the subsidiary's loss proportionately.

  • D.Changes in a parent's ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. Any difference between the amount by which the noncontrolling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received shall be recognized directly in equity and attributed to the owners of the parent.
  • E.If the Company loses control of a subsidiary, the Company recognizes any investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value at the date when control is lost and recognizes any resulting difference as a gain or loss in profit or loss. The Company shall account for all amounts recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that subsidiary on the same basis as would be required if the Company had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. Therefore, if a gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income would be reclassified to profit or loss on the disposal of the related assets or liabilities, the Company reclassifies the gain or loss from equity to profit or loss when it loses control of the subsidiary.
  • F.Associates are all entities over which the Company 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.
  • G.The Company'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 Company's share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, the Company does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.
  • H.When changes in an associate's equity do not arise from profit or loss or other comprehensive income of the associate and such changes do not affect the Company's ownership percentage of the associate, the Company recognises in 'capital surplus' in proportion to its ownership.
  • I. Unrealised gains or loss on transactions between the Company and its associates are eliminated to the extent of the Company'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 Company.

  • J. In the case that an associate issues new shares and the Company does not subscribe or acquire new shares proportionately, which results in a change in the Company'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 Company'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.

  • K.Upon loss of significant influence over an associate, the Company 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.
  • L.When the Company disposes its investment in an associate and 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 retains significant influence over this associate, 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.
  • M.When the Company disposes its investment in an associate and 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 retains significant influence over this associate, the amounts previously recognised as capital surplus in relation to the associate are transferred to profit or loss proportionately.
  • N.According to "Rules Governing the Preparations of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers", 'profit for the year' and 'other comprehensive income for the year' reported in an entity's parent company only statement of comprehensive income, shall equal to 'profit for the year' and 'other comprehensive income' attributable to owners of the parent reported in that entity's consolidated statement of comprehensive income. Total equity reported in an entity's parent company only financial statements, shall equal to equity attributable to owners of parent reported in that entity's consolidated financial statements.
  • (15) Property, plant and equipment
  • A.Property, plant and equipment are initially recorded at cost. Borrowing costs incurred during the construction period are capitalized.
  • B.Subsequent costs are included in the asset's carrying amount or recognized as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized. 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. Each part of an item of property, plant, and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item must be depreciated separately.

  • 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 a 50

(16) Operating leases (lessee)

Payments made under an operating lease (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(17) Investment property

An investment property is stated initially at its cost and measured subsequently using the cost model. Except for land, investment property is depreciated on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 50~60 years.

(18) Intangible assets

Computer software is stated at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life of 3 years.

(19) Impairment of non-financial assets

The Company 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 recognized 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 recognizing impairment loss for an asset in prior years no longer exist or diminish, the impairment loss is reversed. The increased carrying amount due to reversal should not be more than what the depreciated or amortized historical cost would have been if the impairment had not been recognized.

(20) Borrowings

  • A.Borrowings are recognized initially at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently stated at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognized in profit or loss over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method.
  • B.Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities are recognized 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 capitalized as a pre-payment for liquidity services and amortized over the period of the facility to which it relates.
  • (21) Accounts payable

Accounts payable are obligations to pay for goods orservices that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. They are recognized initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. However, short-term accounts payable without bearing interest are subsequently measured at initial invoice amount as effect of discounting is immaterial.

(22) Derecognition of financial liabilities

A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.

(23) Offsetting financial instruments

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and reported in the net amount in the balance sheet when there is a legally enforceable right to offset the recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

  • (24) Financial liabilities and equity instruments
  • A.Ordinary corporate bonds issued by the Company are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Ordinary corporate bonds are subsequently stated at amortized cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is accounted for as the premium or discount on bonds payable and presented as an addition to or deduction from bonds payable, which is amortized in profit or loss as an adjustment to the 'finance costs' over the period of bond circulation using the effective interest method.
  • B.Convertible corporate bonds issued by the Company contain conversion options (that is, the bondholders have the right to convert the bonds into the Company's common shares by exchanging a fixed amount of cash for a fixed number of common shares), call options and put options. The Company classifies the bonds payable and derivative features embedded in convertible corporate bonds on initial recognition as a financial asset, a financial liability or an equity instrument. Convertible corporate bonds are accounted for as follows:

  • (a)Call options and put options embedded in convertible corporate bonds are recognized initially at net fair value as 'financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss'. They are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value on each balance sheet date; the gain or loss is recognized as 'gain or loss on valuation of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss'.

  • (b)Bonds payable of convertible corporate bonds is initially recognized at fair value and subsequently stated at amortized cost. Any difference between the proceeds and the redemption value is accounted for as the premium or discount on bonds payable and presented as an addition to or deduction from bonds payable, which is amortized in profit or loss as an adjustment to the 'finance costs' over the period of bond circulation using the effective interest method.
  • (c)Conversion options embedded in convertible corporate bonds issued by the Company, which meet the definition of an equity instrument, are initially recognized in 'capital surplus—stock warrants' at the residual amount of total issue price less amounts of 'financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss' and 'bonds payable—net' as stated above. Conversion options are not subsequently remeasured.
  • (d)Any transaction costs directly attributable to the issuance of convertible corporate bonds are allocated to the liability and equity components in proportion to the allocation of proceeds.
  • (e)When bondholders exercise conversion options, the liability component of the bonds (including 'bonds payable' and 'financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss') shall be remeasured on the conversion date. The book value of common shares issued due to the conversion shall be based on the adjusted book value of the abovementioned liability component plus the book value of capital surplus - share options.
  • (25) Derivative financial instruments and hedging activities
  • A.Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at their fair value. Any changes in the fair value are recognised in profit or loss.
  • B.The Company designates certain derivatives as hedges of a particular risk associated with a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction (cash flow hedge).
  • C.The Company documents at the inception of the transaction the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategy for undertaking various hedging transactions. The Company also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items.
  • D.The full fair value of a hedging derivative is classified as a non-current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is more than 12 months, and as a current asset or liability when the remaining maturity of the hedged item is less than 12 months. Trading derivatives are classified as current assets or liabilities.

E.Cash flow hedge

  • (a)The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualified as cash flow hedges is recognised in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the statement of comprehensive income within 'other gains and losses'.
  • (b)Amounts accumulated in other comprehensive income are reclassified into profit or loss in the periods when the hedged item affects profit or loss. The gain or loss relating to the effective portion of interest rate swaps hedging variable rate borrowings is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income within 'finance costs'. However, when the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset or financial liability, the gains and losses previously deferred in other comprehensive income are reclassified into profit or loss in the periods when the asset acquired or the liability assumed affects profit or loss. The deferred amounts are ultimately recognised in operating costs.
  • (c)When a hedging instrument expires, or is sold, cancelled or executed, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in other comprehensive income at that time remains in other comprehensive income. When a forecast transaction occurs or is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in other comprehensive income is transferred to profit or loss in the periods when the hedged forecast cash flow affects profit or loss.

(26) 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 recognized as expense in that period when the employees render service.

B.Pensions

(a)Defined contribution plans

For defined contribution plans, the contributions are recognized as pension expense 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 Company in current period or prior periods. The liability recognized in the balance sheet in respect of defined benefit pension plans is the present value of the defined benefit obligation at the balance sheet date less the fair value of plan assets, together with adjustments for unrecognised past service costs. The net defined benefit 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 Company uses interest rates of government bonds (at the balance sheet date) instead.

ii.Remeasurements arising on defined benefit plans are recognized in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise and are recorded as retained earnings.

iii.Past service costs are recognised immediately in profit or loss.

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 expense as it can no longer withdraw an offer of termination benefits or it recognises relating restructuring costs, whichever is earlier. Benefits that are expected to be due more than 12 months after balance sheet date shall be discounted to their present value.

D.Employees' compensation and directors' and supervisors' remuneration

Employees' compensation and directors' and supervisors' remuneration are recognized as expense and liability, provided that such recognition is required under legal or constructive obligation and those amounts can be reliably estimated. Any difference between the resolved amounts and the subsequently actual distributed amounts is accounted for as changes in estimates. If employee compensation is paid by shares, the Company calculates the number of shares based on the closing price at the previous day of the board meeting resolution/

  • (27) Income tax
  • A.The tax expense for the period comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognized in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognized in other comprehensive income or items recognized directly in equity, in which cases the tax is recognized in other comprehensive income or equity.

  • B.The current income tax expense 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 recognized, using the balance sheet liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the parent company only balance sheet. 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 Company 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 realized or the deferred income tax liability is settled.
  • D.Deferred income tax assets are recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which the temporary differences can be utilized. At each balance sheet date, unrecognized and recognized 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 recognized amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or realize 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 levied by the same taxation authority on either the same entity or different entities that intend to settle on a net basis or realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
  • F. A deferred tax asset shall be recognised for the carryforward of unused tax credits resulting from acquisitions of equipment or technology, research and development expenditures and equity investments to the extent that it is possible that future taxable profit will be available against which the unused tax credits can be utilised.
  • (28) 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 on the effective date of new shares issuance.

(29) Revenue recognition

Sales of services

Revenue from delivering services is recognized 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 recognized only to the extent that contract costs incurred are likely to be recoverable.

5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS, ESTIMATES AND KEY SOURCES OF ASSUMPTION UNCERTAINTY

The preparation of these parent company only financial statements requires management to make critical judgements in applying the Company'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. The information is addressed below:

(1)Critical judgements in applying the Company's accounting policies

Financial assets—impairment of equity investments

The Company follows the guidance of IAS 39 to determine whether a financial asset—equity investment is impaired. This determination requires significant judgement. In making this judgement, the Company evaluates, among other factors, the duration and extent to which the fair value of an equity investment is less than its cost and the financial health of and short-term business outlook for the investee, including factors such as industry and sector performance, changes in technology and operational and financing cash flow.

If the decline of the fair value of an individual equity investment below cost was considered significant or prolonged, the Company would transfer the accumulated fair value adjustments recognized in other comprehensive income on the impaired available-for-sale financial assets to profit or loss, please refer to Note 6(2).

(2)Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

A.Revenue recognition

Revenue from delivering services and related costs are recognized under the percentage-ofcompletion 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.

  • B.Impairment assessment of tangible and intangible assets (excluding goodwill)
  • The Company 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 utilized and industrial characteristics. Any changes of economic circumstances or estimates due to the change of Company strategy might cause material impairment on assets in the future.

As of December 31, 2017, the Company had property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, amounting to \$27,118,687 and \$39,071, respectively.

C.Impairment assessment of investments accounted for using the quity method

The Company assesses the impairment of an investment accounted for using the equity method as soon as there is any indication that it might have been impaired and its carrying amount cannot be recovered. The Company assesses the recoverable amounts of an investment accounted for using the equity method based on the present value of the Company's share of expected future cash flows of the investee, and analyzes the reasonableness of related assumptions.

D.Financial assets—fair value measurement of unlisted stocks without active market The fair value of unlisted stocks held by the Company that are not traded in an active market is determined considering those companies' recent funding raising activities, fair value assessment of other companies of the same type, market conditions and other economic indicators existing on balance sheet date. Any changes in these judgements and estimates will impact the fair value measurement of these unlisted stocks. Please refer to Note 12(3) for the financial instruments fair value information.

As of December 31, 2017, the carrying amount of unlisted stocks without active market was \$152,955.

(15) Pension

A.(a)In accordance with the Labor Standards Law, covering all regular employees' service years prior to the enforcement of the Labor Pension Act on July 1, 2005 and service years thereafter of employees who chose to continue to be subject to the pension mechanism under the Law. Under the defined benefit pension plan, two units are accrued for each year of service for the first 15 years and one unit for each additional year thereafter, subject to a maximum of 45 units. Pension benefits are based on the number of units accrued and the average monthly salaries and wages of the last 6 months prior to retirement. The Company and its domestic subsidiaries contribute monthly an amount equal to 15% of the employees' monthly salaries and wages to the retirement fund deposited with Bank of Taiwan, the trustee, under the name of the independent retirement fund committee. Also, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries would assess the balance in the aforementioned labor pension reserve account by December 31, every year. If the account balance is insufficient to pay the pension calculated by the aforementioned method to the employees expected to qualify for retirement in the following year, the Company and its domestic subsidiaries will make contributions for the deficit by next March.

(b)The amounts recognised in the balance sheet are determined as follows:

(d)The Bank of Taiwan was commissioned to manage the Fund of the Company's and domestic subsidiaries' defined benefit pension plan in accordance with the Fund's annual investment and utilisation plan and the "Regulations for Revenues, Expenditures, Safeguard and Utilisation of the Labor Retirement Fund" (Article 6: The scope of utilisation for the Fund includes deposit in domestic or foreign financial institutions, investment in domestic or foreign listed, over-thecounter, or private placement equity securities, investment in domestic or foreign real estate securitization products, etc.). With regard to the utilisation of the Fund, its minimum earnings in the annual distributions on the final financial statements shall be no less than the earnings attainable from the amounts accrued from two-year time deposits with the interest rates offered by local banks. If the earnings is less than aforementioned rates, government shall make payment for the deficit after being authorized by the Regulator. The Company and domestic subsidiaries have no right to participate in managing and operating that fund and hence the Company and domestic subsidiaries are unable to disclose the classification of plan assets fair value in accordance with IAS 19 paragraph 142. The composition of fair value of plan assets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 is given in the Annual Labor Retirement Fund Utilisation Report announced by the government.

iiv.Analysis of foreign currency market risk arising from significant foreign exchange variation:

Price risk

  • i.The Company is exposed to equity securities price risk because of investments held by the Company and classified on the balance sheet either as available-for-sale or at fair value through profit or loss. The Company is not exposed to commodity price risk. To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity securities, the Company diversifies its portfolio. Diversification of the portfolio is done in accordance with the limits set by the Company.
  • ii.The Company's investments in equity securities comprise domestic listed and unlisted stocks. The prices of equity securities would change due to the change of the future value of investee companies. If the prices of these equity securities had increased/decreased by 1% with all other variables held constant, other components of equity for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, would have increased/decreased by \$12,935 and \$17,779, respectively, as a result of gains/losses on equity securities classified as available-for-sale.

Interest rate risk

  • i.The Company's interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk which is partially offset by cash and cash equivalents held at variable rates. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the Company to fair value interest rate risk. During the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company's borrowings at floating rate were denominated in the NTD and USD.
  • ii.At December 31, 2017 and 2016, if interest rates on borrowings had been 1% higher/lower with all other variables held constant, post-tax profit for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 would have been \$329,520 and \$369,290 lower/higher, respectively, mainly as a result of higher/lower interest expense on floating rate borrowings.

(b)Credit risk

  • i.Credit risk refers to the risk of financial loss to the Company arising from default by the clients or counterparties of financial instruments on the contract obligations. According to the Company's credit policy, each local entity in the Company 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 in accordance with limits set by the Board of Directors. The utilisation of credit limits is regularly monitored. Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, derivative financial instruments and deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to wholesale and retail customers, including outstanding receivables and committed transactions. For banks and financial institutions, only independently rated parties with a minimum rating of 'A' are accepted.
  • ii. For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, no credit limits were exceeded during the reporting periods, and management does not expect any significant losses from nonperformance by these counterparties.
  • iii.For credit quality information of financial assets that are neither past due nor impaired, please refer to Note 6(4).
  • (c)Liquidity risk
  • i.Cash flow forecasting is performed in the operating entities of the Company and aggregated by the Company's Finance Department. The Company's Finance Department monitors rolling forecasts of the Company's liquidity requirements to ensure it has sufficient cash to meet operational needs.
  • ii.The table below analyses the Company's non-derivative financial liabilities and net-settled or gross-settled 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 and to the expected maturity date for derivative financial liabilities.

(3) Fair value estimation

  • A. Details of the fair value of the Company's financial assets and financial liabilities not measured at fair value are provided in Note 12(2)A. Details of the fair value of the Company's investment property measured at cost are provided in Note 6(9).
  • B.The table below analyses financial instruments measured at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows:
  • Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
  • Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices).
  • Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data.

C.The related information of financial and non-financial instruments measured at fair value by level on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the assets and liabilities at December 31, 2017 and 2016 is as follows:

D. The methods and assumptions the Company used to measure fair value are as follows:

(a)The instruments the Company used market quoted prices as their fair values (that is, Level 1) are listed below by characteristics:

Listed
shares
Market
quoted
price
Closing
price
  • (b)Except for financial instruments with active markets, the fair value of other financial instruments is measured by using valuation techniques or by reference to counterparty quotes. The fair value of financial instruments measured by using valuation techniques can be referred to current fair value of instruments with similar terms and characteristics in substance, discounted cash flow method or other valuation methods, including calculated by applying model using market information available at the balance sheet date (i.e. yield curves on the Taipei Exchange, average commercial paper interest rates quoted from Reuters).
  • (c)When assessing non-standard and low-complexity financial instruments, for example, debt instruments without active market, interest rate swap contracts, foreign exchange swap contracts and options, the Company adopts valuation technique that is widely used by market participants. The inputs used in the valuation method to measure these financial instruments are normally observable in the market.
  • (d)The valuation of derivative financial instruments is based on valuation model widely accepted by market participants, such as present value techniques and option pricing models. Forward exchange contracts are usually valued based on the current forward exchange rate. Structured interest derivative instruments are measured by using appropriate option pricing models (i.e.

Black-Scholes model) or other valuation methods, such as Monte Carlo simulation.

  • (e)The output of valuation model is an estimated value and the valuation technique may not be able to capture all relevant factors of the Company's financial and non-financial instruments. Therefore, the estimated value derived using valuation model is adjusted accordingly with additional inputs, for example, model risk or liquidity risk and etc. In accordance with the Company's management policies and relevant control procedures relating to the valuation models used for fair value measurement, management believes adjustment to valuation is necessary in order to reasonably represent the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments at the consolidated balance sheet. The inputs and pricing information used during valuation are carefully assessed and adjusted based on current market conditions.
  • (f)The Company takes into account adjustments for credit risks to measure the fair value of financial and non-financial instruments to reflect credit risk of the counterparty and the Company's credit quality.

E.For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, there was no transfer between Level 1 and Level 2.

F.The following chart is the movement of Level 3 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016:

G.For the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, there was no transfer into or out from Level 3. H.The Company is in charge of valuation procedures for fair value measurements being categorised within Level 3, which is to verify independent fair value of financial instruments. Such assessment is to ensure the valuation results are reasonable by applying independent information to make results close to current market conditions, confirming the resource of information is independent, reliable and in line with other resources and represented as the exercisable price, and frequently calibrating valuation model, performing back-testing, updating inputs used to the valuation model and making any other necessary adjustments to the fair value.

I.The following is the qualitative information of significant unobservable inputs and sensitivity analysis of changes in significant unobservable inputs to valuation model used in Level 3 fair value measurement:
