FORMOSA PLASTICS CORPORATION

2014 Business Report

In 2014, Formosa Plastics Corporation (FPC) reported consolidated sales revenue of US$6.83bn, reaching 92% of our target of US$7.46bn, and 0.5% YoY higher than 2013 consolidated sales revenue of US$6.79bn. Consolidated pre-tax profit came in at US$0.65bn, reaching 75% of our target of US$0.86bn, and 11% YoY lower than 2013 consolidated pre-tax profit of US$0.73bn.

Global economy recovered in 2014 and ethylene price was higher. Further, FPC focused on differentiated products (PVC, PE, PP) while AN did not see new capacity with key suppliers operated with lower utilization by avg. 15%-20%. Hence, PVC, PE, PP, AN prices were higher in 2014. However, the decline in oil prices, economic slowdown from China and EU since 2H14 led to price declines of raw materials (ethylene, propylene, etc.) and lower downstream demand. As a result, sales only slightly increased YoY in 2014. Despite of the lower sales, FPC’s consolidated EBIT was able to grow 20% YoY as China still replied heavily on import for selective products (AN, MMA, PE and PP) due to capacity constrain; furthermore, the products ASP also declined less than raw material prices dropped which led to margin expansion. Nevertheless, the sharply decline in oil price also affected FPCC’s earnings (FPC’s subsidiary), and Fujian Fuxin Special Steel Corporation incurred losses on oversupply, therefore investment income declined (- US$0.23bn vs 2013). Overall, company’s pretax income declined 11% YoY in 2014.

Looking back to 2014, global economy was recovering and performance of Taiwan’s economy was better than previous two years with GDP growth above global average. However, Taiwan’s competitiveness in the world market is worrying. In particular, China-Korea FTA is expected to be effective in 2016, which may impact Taiwan’s competitiveness in China. ASEAN+6 and Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) may also be concluded by end-15 and could impact Taiwan.

For Taiwan’s petrochemical industry, due to government support, China companies are catching up and now compete directly against Taiwan peers. On the other hand, the investment environment in Taiwan remains poor due to the lack of government/policy support.

Facing the global economic slowdown and the ever-increasing competitive pressure brought by the integration of regional economics, FPC still focused on its core spirit of “Pursue Excellence and Strive for Perfection” to review raw material and product market changes regularly to form strategies of integrating production, sales and R&D and expand markets for new products, which will maximize company interest. Further, inventory level will be controlled to prevent inventory loss. With the above–mentioned efforts comprehensive, production costs will be minimized and overall company performance will be strengthened, and thus FPC was able to overcome the impacts of economy reversion and limit the impact of economy slowdown. Additionally, we are in the process of merging our six subsidiaries in Ningbo, China with Formosa Industries (Ningbo) as the consolidating entity. This could eliminate tax burden relating to intra-group trades and the merging is expected to complete by 2015 year-end.

FPC and our Ningbo subsidiaries mainly produce plastic and fiber materials. In 2014, PVC sales were affected by oversupply, sales volume was only 1,392,000 MT, -7% YoY. For Caustic soda, annual sales was only 1,350,000 MT, +4% YoY, on better demand. For high density polyethylene (HDPE), annual sales volume decreased 6% YoY to 431,000 MT due to competition from Middle East’s low cost supply. For ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), annual sales volume decreased 5% YoY to 156,000 MT due to competition from Korea’s new capacity and lower China demand. For linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE), annual sales volume dropped 10% YoY to 185,000 MT due to the impact from new capacities of 1.5mn MT of coal chemical project. For acrylic fiber, Iran (its major market) was impacted by US and Europe sanctions which affected cash and inventory flows, annual sales volume was 35,000 MT, down 12% YoY. Acrylic esters (AE) was affected by new capacities which resulted in over-supply in

8

China market, sales volume was down 10% YoY to 319,000 MT. For Carbon Fiber, the annual sales volume was 3,000 MT, down 3% YoY. N-Butanol (NBA) is mainly for our own use in Taiwan and Ningbo AE plant, the annual sales volume was down 22% YoY to 171,000 MT mainly on production capacity adjustment. Sales volume of super absorbent polymer (SAP) down to 84,000 MT, down 29% YoY, due to oversupply in China market. For polypropylene (PP), the annual sales volume was 791,000 MT, up 6% YoY, driven by better China and domestic demand, as well as efforts on high-end products. Acrylonitrile (AN) sales was 266,000 MT, down 1% YoY, while downstream product acrylonitrile-butadienestyrene (ABS) and Acrylic Fiber were also weak. The annual sales volume for methyl methacrylate (MMA) declined 4% YoY to 79,000 MT on poorer downstream demand. Epichlorohydrin (ECH) impacted by lower demand of downstream product Epoxy; annual sales volume was 88,000 MT, down 2% YoY. For the remainder of FPC’s products such as MTBE and 1-butene, sales volume also declined YoY.

In terms of capacity expansion, FPC has been actively involved in capacity ramp-up and debottlenecking projects to increase the company’s competitiveness. This year FPC completed the expansion project of paste PVC in Ningbo (70,000 MT/year), PVC capacity in China reached 470,000 MT/year. Other expansions including AA/AE phase II of 160,000/200,000 MT/year, EVA of 72,000 MT/year and SAP of 45,000 MT/year are expected to complete in 1H15. The Kaohsiung plant (PVC of 40,000 MT/year) had stopped operation on 2014-04-25 due to end of land lease contract. The company had applied on 2013-12-31 to reconstruct the site to the “Wang Yung-ching and Wang Yung-tsai brothers historical park”.

As for the performance of FPC’s investments, our 22.59%-owned FPC-USA had pretax income of US$1.14bn, down 14% YoY. FPC-USA was affected by maintenance of its ethylene plant in 4Q (once every 6 years). FPC-USA will invest in a propane dehyrogenation plant (540,000 MT/year of propylene), and a LDPE plant (400,000 MT/year), which will commence production by the end of 2018, in order to benefit from the low

9

cost shale gas. Further, FPC decided to set up its US subsidiary “Formosa Industries Corporation”, and build a HDPE plant (400,000 MT/year). Also FIC plans to joint venture with FPC-USA and other company to build an ethylene cracker (1,200,000 MT/year, FIC will hold 33%). For our 25%-owned Fujian Fuxin Special Steel Corporation, which has a capacity of 720,000 MT/year stainless steel, a further US$600 mn will be invested for a 550,000 MT/year Cold Rolled Coil plant to enhance its competitiveness and complement its product portfolio. Moreover, our 14.75%-owned Formosa Ha Tinh Steel Corporation (FHS) with 7.10 million MT/year of crude steel in Ha Tinh Province, Vietnam is an integrated steel plant that is capable of billet, Hot Rolled Coil and Bar in Coil/Wire Rod mainly supplied to the local market as well as other Asian markets. The first blast furnace will be delayed to 1Q16 (due to Vietnam’s anti-Chinese protest in 2014); second one may start in 1Q17.

Our research and development (R&D) expenses in 2014 amounted to US$50.76mn, 0.87% of total sales revenue, with a focus on formula development, manufacturing process optimization, quality improvement, reducing energy consumption and training talents in order to raise production efficiency and reduce costs. Through collaboration with peers, FPC was able to enhance its technology and develop new formulas including low fogging paste resin used for automotive interior decoration, lower odor suspension PVC resin used for automotive interior decoration, special PVC resin used for CPVC manufacture, high MI EVA resin for hot melt, UV stabilized LLDPE resin for rotational molding, HDPE resin for cap & closure, high absorption capacity against pressure SAP, high strength and hydrolysis-inhibited SAP, heating and humidity-regulating fiber, flat flame retardant fiber, stress whiteness resistant PP grade for extrusion molding suitcase, and high melt flow high impact PP copolymer. Some of the products and technologies mentioned above have commenced or been applied in production, which not only helped to explore new markets but also provided more high value-added downstream products. With support from the Executive Yuan and Ministry of Economic Affairs, FPC is also working with Industrial Technology Research Institute and

10

academics on solar cell development. For sustainable development and to enhance the company’s competitiveness, FPC will continue to monitor the latest developments in shale gas, coal chemical and new energy, analyze vertical and horizontal integration in the industry, organize seminars and promote professional technology platform.

FPC is dedicated to industrial safety and environmental protection, holding these principles in equal regard with business development. The total expenditure for industrial safety, environmental protection and fire protection improvement reached US$532.86mn as of the end of 2014, which was mainly used for pollution prevention, energy savings, greenhouse gas reduction and fire protection. Presently, the disposal of each pollutant surpasses national control standards. FPC was rated by the Environmental Protection Administration as an “Excellent Green Purchasing Unit” for the 4th consecutive year. The Linyuan PP plant, Mailiao PVC plant, Jenwu VCM plant was also recognized by the authorities. FPC accomplished 117 improvement projects in 2014 in an effort to save water and energy consumed as well as to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Total water saved amounted to 3,632 MT/day while greenhouse gas emissions reduction reached 105,251 MT/year. Another 56 improvement projects will be accomplished in 2015, which would further conserve water by 166 MT/day and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 16,770 MT/year. In response to the explosion accident in Kaohsiung, the company has fully inspected its underground pipelines to ensure safety. FPC expects to ingrain the emphasis on workplace safety and environmental protection and to manage to reach the goal of “Zero damage, Zero pollution and Zero accidents”.

Looking into 2015, US could continue to recover, while China demand could be strengthened by its RMB 7 trillion infrastructure investment and lowering of RRR (reserve requirement ratio) and interest rate. Lower oil price could also stimulate consumption and growth.

According to IHS forecasts, the global incremental ethylene capacity is estimated to be 6.4mn MT in 2015 and would be concentrated in China, Middle East, and India; while demand would also increase by 6.3mn MT,

11

based on the calculation that the growth rate of global ethylene demand is 1.2 times of global GDP growth, which means global ethylene supply demand will be rather balanced. US benefits from the breakthroughs in shale gas extraction technology which results in low cost natural gas, 7 new ethane crackers (expected to be completed in 2018-2019) are under planning; however, there had been no major petrochemical expansion project in US for nearly 30 years, the US expansion projects may face delays due to the lack of labor. China has been developing the coal chemical industry as it has the largest coal reserve in the world, and an estimated 5mn MT of ethylene capacities will be added in 2015-2019; however, as the coal-rich provinces are mostly in inland area where there is a lack of water supply, and coal chemical industry faces environmental problems from greenhouse gas emission and waste treatment, the new coal chemical capacities may be questionable when China government tightens control on over-capacity and environment protection. In addition, coal chemical does not have cost advantage when oil price is below US$80 per barrel. While in the Middle East, there is no more low cost natural gas except for Iran; but Iran still faces sanctions from US and Europe, therefore low cost petrochemical products from the Middle East will not increase in the coming several years.

We expect the global petrochemical industry will be better in 2015 on lower oil price and US beginning to export light oils. However, there are uncertainties on China’s industry upgrade, US interest rate hike, USD strength, Middle East/Africa polical issues, which we will react carefully.

In 2015, as the petrochemical market is improving while raw materials from FPCC and CPC may be higher (on their maintenance plans); therefore the utilization rate of each plant should be higher compared to 2014. Further, in view of low oil prices, ethylene-based PVC, PE and PP will have cost advantage over carbide-based PVC and coal chemicals, which could support the company’s earnings. FPC will continue to develop differentiated products to enhance its competitiveness, and monitor the raw material and product markets closely, regularly examine the long-term and short-term goals and strategies. The investments in Ningbo Complex,

12

Fujian Fuxin Special Steel, Formosa Ha Tinh Steel in Vietnam, and FPC-USA will continue as planned. With the above-mentioned measures, we expect to maintain stable sales growth.

Independent Auditors’ Report

The Board of Directors Formosa Plastics Corporation:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial position of Formosa Plastics Corporation (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Consolidated Company”) as of December 31, 2013 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of changes in equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of certain investee companies under the equity method. The Consolidated Company's investments in the aforementioned investee companies were NT$133,336,206 thousand and NT$142,414,585 thousand, constituting 32.62% and 33.04% of the consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2013 and 2014, respectively, and recognized share of profit of associates and joint ventures accounted for using equity method of these investee companies were NT$16,932,145 thousand and NT$11,116,474 thousand, constituting 73.10% and 54.09% of the consolidated income before income tax for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2014, respectively. The consolidated financial statements of the aforementioned investee companies were audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for these investee companies, is based solely on the reports of other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Rules Governing Auditing and Certification of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Those rules and standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to in the first paragraph present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Formosa Plastics Corporation and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2014, and the results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2014, in conformity with the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC interpretations and SIC interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

We have also audited the parent company only financial statements of Formosa Plastics Corporation as of and for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2014 and have expressed a modified unqualified opinion thereon.
