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 consolidated subsidiaries and investments accounted for under equity method for the year ended December 31, 2013.

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 solely 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, based on our audits and the reports of other independent accountants, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Innolux Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and their financial performance and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with the “Regulations 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.
Innolux Corporation and its subsidiaries’ current liabilities have exceeded its current assets by NT$9,754,686,000 as of December 31, 2014. As set forth in Note 12(4), management has designed a turnaround plan to improve the Company’s operating efficiency.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Innolux Corporation
We have audited the accompanying parent company only balance sheets of Innolux Corporation as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related parent company only statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended. These parent company only financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these parent company only financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of certain investments accounted for under equity method for the year ended December 31, 2013. The long-term equity investments amounted to NT$2,618,196,000 as of December 31, 2013, and the comprehensive income (including share of profit (loss) of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures accounted for using equity method and share of other comprehensive income of subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures accounted for using equity method) was NT$451,716,000 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 solely 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, based on our audits and the reports of other independent accountants, the parent company only financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Innolux Corporation as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and their financial performance and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with the “Regulations Governing the Preparations of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers”.
Innolux Corporation’s current liabilities have exceeded its current assets by NT$42,313,979,000 as of December 31, 2014. As set forth in Note 12(4), management has designed a turnaround plan to improve the Company’s operating efficiency.
