FORMOSA TAFFETA CO., LTD

2014 Business Report

1. Overview of business operations in 2014

The company’s revenue of the financial year of 2014 is $ 1,519,362 thousand, which is $ 22,991 thousand increased in comparison with $ 1,496,371 thousand of the financial year of 2013, representing a 1.5% increased. The gross-profit before income tax is $ 131,532 thousand which is $ 47,670 thousand increased in comparison with $ 83,862 thousand of the financial year of 2013 , standing as a 56.8% increased.

2. The business operation condition

In reviewing the entire business operation in 2014, we experienced greater changes in the external industrial environment than in the internal business environment. First of all , the USA is experiencing the more obvious growth in economics, whereas the related growth indexes of Europe, Japan and China fluctuate in the zone of high-level performance, which accompanies with a worry of potential risk of zero or negative growth. Secondly, the “Quantitative Easing Policy” and the consideration of avoiding risks turn up the rise of American dollars and the drop of Japanese ones both by a wide margin; meanwhile, currencies of Asian nations are facing either frequent up-and-down or severe depreciation one after another. Moreover, international oil price dramatically falls from June of 2014, which might bring up a big worry of deflation and the accompanied declination of prices. Difficulties in the financial year of 2014 are well managed; the gross-profit before income tax is 56.8% increased in comparison with the financial year of 2013.

3. Operation plans and perspective for 2015

~ 5 ~

The operation plans and perspective for the financial year of 2015 against 7 categories of products are as below:

(1) Synthetic Textile fabric:

There are 4 main categories of Synthetic Textile fabric: sportswear, outdoor performance clothing, casual fashion, and umbrella fabric. The on-going movements for all these products are focusing on the research and development into functionality and differentiation of products, such as goods of light micro-denier fabrics, spandex, waterproof, breathable, laminated and coated fabrics, etc., so as to raise up the ratio of volume to price, implement lean production processes, eliminate the defective ratio, and execute SOP to daily operation to meet the requisites of quality as well as on-time delivery.

In the aspect of production and sales, we continue reinforcing the collaboration with brand strategy partners of filament fabrics, strengthening the diversification, mobility, and flexibility in deployment of supply chains for the short lead time requirement, participating customers’ manufacturing on design for seasonal new products, and transferring from manufacturing into customizing service industry. From the aspect of business operations, we integrate individual advantages of five factories in Taiwan, China, and Vietnam, through well leverage of the capacity against each plant to the best sales outcome. The number of brand strategy partners of sportswear and outdoor leisurewear in the domestic market of China is gradually increasing; remarkable transformation of products has been achieved. The growth of cooperative export sales and of the market demands of down fashion are also in the ascending status. Furthermore, wet-type, waterproof, moisture-permeable equipment and paper-transfer-printing equipment have been added in Vietnam plants to further differentiate production lines, which can enhance services ability for strategy customers; fabrics produced in Vietnam are already with preferential duties in ASEAN–China Free Trade Area (ACFTA), and Europe,

~ 6 ~

and what are exported to Japan are zero-tariff. The especial matter to be mentioned is the differentiated and functional products meet Japanese demand for cut-price sportswear and fashion brands. We believe the overall growth in both quantity and price of products made by synthetic fabrics is optimistic.

For the perspective for the financial year of 2015, the focus is on continuous expansion of strategic cooperation of the Apparel’s supply chain, on innovation, research and development of products, and on diligent maintenance of reciprocal collaborative relationship with brand customers. Combining with the global trend of the growth in the market of functional fabrics, we estimate a better financial year of 2015 than 2014.

(2) Tyre cord fabric:

Equipment with an annual capacity of 12,000 tons is all ready in the new plants at Vietnam in 2014. Products are mainly made of coarse denier, in common use to meet low-and-middle price markets; 70% of outputs are sold to markets nearby Vietnam, in Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), KOREA and China market. In recent years, the plants in Taiwan has encountered challenges, such as tariff barriers, horizontal competition, oversupply in Asia, etc., which results in loss of some orders, or production replaced by the Vietnam plants. Despite so many challenges, there is still a 22% increment of the profit in 2014 in comparison with the financial year of 2013, and the main contributing reasons are the rise of the US dollar, product mix of micro-denier, differentiated specifications, etc.

Regarding forecast on business of 2015, with the full capacity of plants in Vietnam and zero tariffs in markets of ASEAN, we have good chance to turn loss condition into profit condition, which is in favor of the second phase extensions of plants. Sales of tyre cord fabrics are also likely to continuously grow as long as the master plants in Taiwan further actively develop customers from the global top 30 brands of tire enterprises, improve product mix, and

~ 7 ~

promote orders of differentiated products. As for how much the profit will grow, the extent depemds on the exchange rate between the US and Taiwanese dollars.

(3) Cotton yarn:

Existing channels, like 7-11 convenience stores, the CORPO website, etc., of well-sold Heat Generated by Moisture Absorption Serial Yarn are going to be maintained. In addition, purposes of functional yarn are about to be developed through cooperating with customers; the stably exploited types of materials for yarn include bamboo charcoal fiber, far-infrared-ray fiber, UV-cut fiber, anion fiber, hollow section fiber, bamboo fiber, and so on. Customers’ overall purchasing quantity should thereby be enlarged.

Other applications of couple kinds of cotton yarn are as below:

  • Formotex of Formorsa Chemicals & Fibre Corporation is already introduced in mass production of Home & Comfort Fabric and garments made of yarn that generates heat by absorbing moisture.

  • Bamboo fiber and cooling down fiber with medium tenacity are likely to be introduced into markets of cooling down garments and bedding accessories.

  • 0.9 denier micro-rayon has been used as a material for lady’s trousers.

Applications of main products, made by the MVS machines, are as below:

  • 100% rayon is used for lady’s fashion and as a material for trousers.

  • Yarn blended with 100% X-cross section polyester and rayon is used for T-shirts and sportswear.

  • 100% circular/regular section polyester is used for bed sheets.

~ 8 ~

The profit of cotton yarn in 2014 grows to 16.6% of the profit in 2013, and there will be a high opportunity for a small margin of growth in 2015.

(4) Special finishing fabric:

It is efficacious to apply anti-static cloth to develop European market of fabrics with low resistance and for anti-bacterial clean room suits, and its sales are gradually increased. For low-end anti-static cloth, its production is shifted to the plants in Vietnam to supply nearby markets in ASEAN owing to price competition and tariff barriers; for high-end one with the function of water repellency, it is primarily promoted in Taiwanese and Chinese markets of edible, pharmaceutical, medical products, etc., and its sales are stable.

Applications of other special finishes fabrics are as below:

  • Bulletproof fabric makes Taiwanese, Chinese, ASEAN, Russian markets of bulletproof and anti-puncture fabric developed.

  • Both-side prepreg fabric becomes popular in that it is a part of a bulletproof helmet.

  • Fireproof cloth facilitates the promotion of high-end fabrics for flame retardant, low-end or middle-end fabric, and anti-arc fabric so as to strive to render our products substitutions for foreign ones of the same kinds and dominate the market of finishing fireproof cotton cloth.

  • Sales promotion of BLAZOUT fireproof cloth continues in markets in Europe, America, Japan, New Zealand, Austral Asia-Pacific, India, China, and so forth.

The profit of special finishes fabrics in 2014 increased by 75% comparison with the profit of 2013. Look into the future in 2015, the stable quantity of production subcontracted by DuPont, the small margin of growth of

~ 9 ~

anti-static cloth and fireproof cloth, and improved development of composite materials with diversified applications will further bring about the expected growth of sales in 2015.

(5) Carbon fiber composite material:

This material is mainly used for sports equipment in 3K, carbon fiber cloth for autos, stiffeners in 12K, case material for 3C, one-sided prepreg thicker than 12K, both-side prepreg in 3K, and pipeline reinforcement jackets. With the cooperation of downstream processing factories, multi-axial layered carbon fiber cloth has been promoted to end users. In addition, it is successful to have trial sales of one-sided prepreg in Japan in 2014; on the basis of present developments, the goal in 2015 is to further expand markets of multi-axial layered carbon fiber cloth, splitting fabrics, etc.

(6) PE bags

Sales of these products account for 76% of market shares in Japan, 16% in South America, 6% in Taiwan , and 2% in America. To maintain the main market in Japan, Japanese Green policy of reducing usage of plastics has to be taken into account; to avoid price competition, the Blue Ocean Strategy is employed. With the aforementioned considerations, slim roll bags are newly developed. Their sales of the fourth season take up 13.8% of annual sales in 2014 in Japanese market, and orders in 2015 are keeping going up. Moreover, T-shirt bags provided in Japanese convenience stores are also main commodities. Great depreciation in Japanese market caused by the Quantitative Easing policy make the overall profit in 2014 decline; whether such depreciation will go on remains an uncertain condition , and its impacts need to be cautiously dealt with. Roll bags and processed shopping bags made from recycled PE resins are the main products in the southern American markets; sales in 2014 grow by 39%, compared to sales in 2013. Based on the previous niche, the goal in 2015 is to pursue the growth in both quantity

~ 10 ~

and price of PE bags.

(7) Gas stations:

Formosa Petroleum Station owns 105 gas stations at the end of 2014, which renders it one of the top 5 sale channels of gas in Taiwan; it earns stable profits for many years through elimination of weak stations and reservation of strong ones according to business performance and rent duration of each station. Furthermore, it wins GSP, superior commercial service certificate awarded by Ministry of Economic Affairs, through the implementation of educational training in SOP, 5S, total productive management (TPM), etc. for the personnel, the intensification of superior services, and management of SOP. Since the trial of a self-service station in January, 2013, the count of self-service stations is 40 so far, and the number is continuously going up. Besides, to satisfy customers’ diversified needs with omnibus services and retails, Formosa Petroleum Station shoots for bigger users who make payments on a monthly base and have a contractual relationship with Formosa Petroleum Station, like enterprises, users of agricultural machinery, users of engineering machinery, etc., strengthens the operation of car-washing machines with patent, and sells by-products of casual life via the business-to-customer consumer channel. The profit decreases due to huge declination of international gas price since June, 2014. It is hoped there is a small margin of growth of sold gas; the amount of earned profit will depend on the international gas price in the future.

4. Conclusion

For year of 2015, it had better not to be over-optimistic because of potential deflation resulting from the floating rate of exchange and up-and-down of gas price; operations will confront more challenges in view of competition with Korean and Chinese products, diversified dynamic variations of supply chains of international famous brands, and tariff disadvantages of

~ 11 ~

Taiwanese exported products. In accordance with the Company’s funder of Wang’s words “To pursue real problem and to stop in perfect result ”, the Company makes efforts on the implementation of overall improvements and the achievement of standardization and rationalization; at the same time, it takes advantage of international and regional circumstances of Cross-Straits Economic Cooperation Framework Agreement (ECFA) and ACFTA to integrate overseas plants and take master plants in Taiwan as the fundamental platform to map out the division of regional work, distribution of global sales, professional branches, and centralized production, to pursue high value of products, consistency of standards, and optimization of quality of the brand, and finally to create integrated effects. The Company’s “2015 Business Policy”, namely, “renovation, invention, and pursuit of value”, signifies that it will strive for the innovation of four aspects in thinking, work, organization and products so as to insist on the quality and ambitions. In 2015, the targets are to carry out the performance by overcoming challenges, create better investment rewards for shareholders, and gain the cooperation of the supply chain, sustainable relationship with customers and the social respect.

Independent Auditor’s Report

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Formosa Taffeta Co., Ltd.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Formosa Taffeta Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of Formosa Taffeta Co., Ltd. management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit financial statements of certain consolidated subsidiaries, which statements reflect total assets of NT$6,042,605 thousand and NT$4,976,433 thousand, all constituting 8% and 6% of the consolidated total assets as of December 31,2014 and 2013, respectively, and total operating revenues of NT$4,327,699 thousand and NT$3,260,701 thousand, constituting 9% and 7% of the consolidated total operating revenues for the years then ended, respectively. We also did not audit certain investments accounted for under equity method. the balance of related investment accounted for using equity method amounted to NT$2,909,436 thousand and NT$7,551,755 thousand at December 31,2014 and 2013. The comprehensive income (including share of profit (loss) of associates accounted for using equity method and share of profit (loss) and other comprehensive income of associates) amounted to NT$230,305 thousand and NT$279,193 thousand for the year then ended. Those financial statements and the information disclosed in Note 13 were audited by other independent accountants whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinion expressed herein is based on the audit reports of the other independent accountants.

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. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the reports of other independent accountants provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material

~ 46 ~

respects, the financial position of Formosa Taffeta Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and their financial performance and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with the “Rules Governing the Preparations of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.

We have also audited the non-consolidated financial statements of Formosa Taffeta Co., Ltd. (not presented herein) as of and for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, on which we have expressed a modified unqualified opinion on such financial statements.

Independent Auditor’s Report

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Formosa Taffeta Co., Ltd.

We have audited the accompanying non-consolidated balance sheets of Formosa Taffeta Co., Ltd. as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related non-consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended. These non-consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these non-consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of certain investee companies accounted for under the equity method. These investments accounted for under the equity method amounted to $6,818,570 thousand and $10,691,986 thousand as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and the comprehensive income (including share of profit/(loss) of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures accounted for under equity method and share of other comprehensive income of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures accounted for under equity method) was $384,331 thousand and $526,640 thousand for the years then ended, respectively. The financial statements of these investee companies were audited by other auditors, whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for these investee companies, is based solely on the reports of the other independent accountants.

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. Those rules and standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the reports of other independent accountants provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other independent accountants, the non-consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Formosa Taffeta Co., Ltd. as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and their financial performance and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with the “Rules Governing the Preparations of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers”.
