INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
The Board of Directors and Stockholders Lite-On Technology Corporation
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Lite-On Technology Corporation (the “Parent Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”) as of December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Parent Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Rules Governing the Audit 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 provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, and their consolidated financial performance and their consolidated cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, in conformity with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Financial Reporting Standards endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.
We have also audited the parent company only financial statements of Lite-On Technology Corporation as of and for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 on which we have issued an unqualified report.

3. APPLICATION OF NEW, AMENDED AND REVISED STANDARDS AND INTERPRETATIONS
- a. New, amended and revised standards and interpretations (the “New IFRSs”) in issue but not yet effective
The Parent Company and entities controlled by the Parent Company (the “Group”) have not applied the following International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), Interpretations of IFRS (IFRIC), and Interpretations of IAS (SIC) issued by the IASB.

b. Significant changes in accounting policy that would result from adoption of New IFRSs in issue but not yet effective
Except for the following, the impending initial application of the above New IFRSs, whenever applied, would not have any material impact on the Group’s accounting policies:
- 1) IFRS 9 “Financial Instruments”
Recognition and measurement of financial assets
With regards to financial assets, all recognized financial assets that are within the scope of IAS 39 “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” are subsequently measured at amortized cost or fair value. Specifically, financial assets that are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, and that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal outstanding are generally measured at amortized cost at the end of subsequent accounting periods. All other financial assets are measured at their fair values at the end of reporting period. However, the Group may make an irrevocable election to present subsequent changes in the fair value of an equity investment (that is not held for trading) in other comprehensive income, with only dividend income generally recognized in profit or loss.
Hedge accounting
The main changes in hedge accounting amended the application requirements for hedge accounting to better reflect the entity’s risk management activities. Compared with IAS 39, the main changes include: (1) enhancing types of transactions eligible for hedge accounting, specifically broadening the risk eligible for hedge accounting of non-financial items; (2) changing the way hedging derivative instruments are accounted for to reduce profit or loss volatility; and (3) replacing retrospective effectiveness assessment with the principle of economic relationship between the hedging instrument and the hedged item.
Effective date
The mandatory effective date of IFRS 9, which was previously set at January 1, 2015, was removed and will be reconsidered once the standard is complete with a new impairment model and finalization of any limited amendments to classification and measurement.
-
11 -
-
2) New and revised standards on consolidation, and associates and disclosure
-
a) IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements”
IFRS 10 replaces IAS 27 “Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements” and SIC 12 “Consolidation - Special Purpose Entities”. The Group considers whether it has control over other entities for consolidation. The Group has control over an investee if and only if it has i) power over the investee; ii) exposure, or rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee and iii) the ability to use its power over the investee to affect the amount of its returns. Additional guidance has been included in IFRS 10 to explain when an investor has control over an investee.
- b) Revision to IAS 28 “Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures”
Revised IAS 28 requires when a portion of an investment in associates meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale, that portion is classified as held for sale. Any retained portion that has not been classified as held for sale is accounted for using the equity method. Previously, when a portion of an investment in associates meets the criteria to be classified as held for sale, the entire investment is classified as held for sale and ceases to apply the equity method.
- c) IFRS 12 “Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities”
IFRS 12 is a new disclosure standard and is applicable to entities that have interests in subsidiaries, joint arrangements, associates and/or unconsolidated structured entities. In general, the disclosure requirements in IFRS 12 are more extensive than in the current standards.
- 3) IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement”
IFRS 13 establishes a single source of guidance for fair value measurements. It defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. The disclosure requirements in IFRS 13 are more extensive than those required in the current standards. For example, quantitative and qualitative disclosures based on the three-level fair value hierarchy currently required for financial instruments only will be extended by IFRS 13 to cover all assets and liabilities within its scope.
- 4) Amendment to IAS 1 “Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income”
The amendment to IAS 1 requires items of other comprehensive income to be grouped into those that (1) will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss; and (2) will be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss when specific conditions are met. Income taxes on related items of other comprehensive income are grouped on the same basis. Previously, there were no such requirements.
- 5) Amendment to IAS 36 “Recoverable Amount Disclosures for Non-Financial Assets”
In issuing IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement”, the IASB made consequential amendment to the disclosure requirements in IAS 36 “Impairment of Assets”, introducing a requirement to disclose in every reporting period the recoverable amount of an asset or each cash-generating unit. The amendment clarifies that such disclosure of recoverable amounts is required only when an impairment loss has been recognized or reversed during the period. Furthermore, the Group is required to disclose the discount rate used in measurements of the recoverable amount based on fair value less costs of disposal measured using a present value technique.
-
12 -
-
6) Revision to IAS 19 “Employee Benefits”
Revised IAS 19 changes the definition of short-term employee benefits. The revised definition is “employee benefits (other than termination benefits) that are expected to be settled wholly before 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period in which the employees render the related service”. The Group’s unused annual leave, which can be carried forward within 18 months after the end of the annual period in which the employee renders service and which is currently classified as short-term employee benefits, will be classified as other long-term employee benefits under revised IAS 19. Related defined benefit obligation of such other long-term benefit is calculated using the Projected Unit Credit Method. However, this change does not affect unused annual leave to be presented as a current liability in the consolidated balance sheet.
- 7) Annual Improvements to IFRSs: 2010-2012 Cycle
Several standards including IFRS 3 “Business Combinations” and IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement” were amended in this annual improvement.
IFRS 3 was amended to clarify that contingent consideration should be measured at fair value, irrespective of whether the contingent consideration is a financial instrument within the scope of IFRS 9 or IAS 39. Changes in fair value should be recognized in profit or loss.
IFRS 13 was amended to clarify that the issuance of IFRS 13 did not remove the ability to measure short-term receivables and payables with no stated interest rate at their invoice amounts without discounting, if the effect of not discounting is immaterial.
IAS 24 was amended to clarify that a management entity providing key management personnel services to the Group is a related party of the Group. Consequently, the Group is required to disclose as related party transactions the amounts incurred for the service paid or payable to the management entity for the provision of key management personnel services. However, disclosure of the components of such compensation is not required.
- 8) Annual Improvements to IFRSs: 2011-2013 Cycle
Several standards including IFRS 3 “Business Combination”, IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement” and IAS 40 “Investment Property” were amended in this annual improvement.
IFRS 3 was amended to clarify that IFRS 3 does not apply to the accounting for the formation of all types of joint arrangements in the financial statements of the joint arrangement itself.
The scope in IFRS 13 of the portfolio exception for measuring the fair value of a group of financial assets and financial liabilities on a net basis was amended to clarify that it includes all contracts that are within the scope of, and accounted for in accordance with, IAS 39 or IFRS 9, even if those contracts do not meet the definitions of financial assets or financial liabilities within IAS 32.
IAS 40 was amended to clarify that IAS 40 and IFRS 3 are not mutually exclusive and application of both standards may be required to determine whether the investment property acquired is acquisition of an asset or a business combination.
- c. The impact of the application of New IFRSs and the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers (the “Regulations”) in issue but not yet effective on the Group’s consolidated financial statements is as follows:
As of the date the consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue, the Group is continuingly assessing the possible impact that the application of the above New IFRSs will have on the Group’s financial position and operating result, and will disclose the relevant impact when the assessment is complete.
- 13 -
4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
On May 14, 2009, the FSC announced the “Framework for the Adoption of IFRSs by the Companies in the ROC.” In this framework, starting 2013, companies with shares listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange or traded on the Taiwan GreTai Securities Market or Emerging Stock Market should prepare their consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the IFRS, IAS, IFRIC and SIC (the “IFRSs”) endorsed by the FSC.
The Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 were its first IFRS consolidated financial statements. The date of transition to IFRSs was January 1, 2012. Refer to Note 37 for the impact of IFRS conversion on the Group’s consolidated financial statements.
- a. Statement of compliance
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and IFRSs as endorsed by the FSC.
- b. Basis of preparation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for financial instruments that are measured at fair values. Historical cost is generally based on the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for assets.
The opening consolidated balance sheets as of the date of transition to IFRSs were prepared in accordance with IFRS 1 “First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards”. The applicable IFRSs have been applied retrospectively by the Group except for some aspects where IFRS 1 prohibits retrospective application or grants optional exemptions to this general principle. For the exemptions that the Group elected, refer to Note 37.
For the convenience of readers, the accompanying financial statements have been translated into English from the original Chinese version prepared and used in the Republic of China. If there is any conflict between the English version and the original Chinese version or any difference in the interpretation of the two versions, the Chinese-language financial statements shall prevail.
c. Basis of consolidation
- 1) Principles for preparing consolidated financial statements
The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and the entities controlled by the Company.
Income and expenses of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are included in the consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate.
When necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by the Company.
All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated in full upon consolidation.
- 14 -
- Attribution of total comprehensive income to non controlling interests
Total comprehensive income of subsidiaries is attributed to the owners of the Company and to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.
Changes in the Group’s ownership interests in existing subsidiaries
Changes in the Group’s ownership interests in subsidiaries that do not result in the Group losing control over the subsidiaries are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Group’s interests and the non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiaries. Any difference between the amount by which the non-controlling interests are adjusted and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to the owners of the Company.
When the Group loses control of a subsidiary, a gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss and is calculated as the difference between (i) the aggregate of the fair value of the consideration received and any investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value at the date when control is lost and (ii) the assets (including any goodwill) and liabilities and any non-controlling interests of the former subsidiary at their carrying amounts at the date when control is lost. The Group accounts for all amounts recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that subsidiary on the same basis as would be required if the Group had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities.
- 2) Subsidiary included in consolidated financial statements
Please refer to Table 1 for the chart of investment relationship and percentage of ownership of Parent Company and its subsidiaries.
-
3) Subsidiaries excluded from consolidated financial statements: None
-
d. Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities
Current assets include:
-
1) Assets held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
2) Assets expected to be realized within 12 months after the reporting period; and
-
3) Cash and cash equivalents unless the asset is restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least 12 months after the reporting period.
Current liabilities include:
-
1) Liabilities held primarily for the purpose of trading;
-
2) Liabilities due to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period, even if an agreement to refinance, or to reschedule payments, on a long-term basis is completed after the reporting period and before the consolidated financial statements are authorized for issue; and
-
3) Liabilities for which the Group does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least 12 months after the reporting period. 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.
Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are classified as non-current.
- 15 -
e. Foreign currencies
In preparing the financial statements of each individual group entity, transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are recognized at the rates of exchange prevailing at the dates of the transactions.
At the end of each reporting period, monetary items denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at that date. Exchange differences on monetary items arising from settlement or translation are recognized in profit or loss in the period.
Non-monetary items measured at fair value that are denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at the rates prevailing at the date when the fair value was determined. Exchange differences arising on the retranslation of non-monetary items are included in profit or loss for the period except for exchange differences arising from the retranslation of non-monetary items in respect of which gains and losses are recognized directly in other comprehensive income, in which case, the exchange differences are also recognized directly in other comprehensive income.
Non-monetary items that are measured at historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated. For the purposes of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Group’s foreign operations are translated into New Taiwan dollars using exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the period. Exchange differences arising are recognized in other comprehensive income.
On the disposal of a foreign operation, and the disposal involving loss of control, loss of joint control and loss of significant influence, all of the exchange differences accumulated in equity are reclassified to profit or loss.
In relation to a partial disposal of a subsidiary that does not result in the Company losing control over the subsidiary, the proportionate share of accumulated exchange differences is re-attributed to non-controlling interests of the subsidiary and is not recognized in profit or loss. For all other partial disposals, the proportionate share of the accumulated exchange differences recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified to profit or loss.
f. Inventories
Inventories consist of materials and supplies, work-in-process, finished goods, merchandise, goods in transit and power generation facility held for sale. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are made by item, except where it may be appropriate to group similar or related items. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are recorded at standard cost and adjusted to approximate weighted-average cost on the balance sheet date.
g. Investment in equity method
The investments of associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method.
An associate is an entity over which the Company has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor a joint venture. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.
A joint venture is a contractual arrangement whereby the Company and other parties undertake an economic activity that is subject to joint control (i.e. when the strategic financial and operating policy decisions relating to the activities of the joint venture require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control). Joint venture arrangements that involve the establishment of a separate entity in which each venturer has an interest are referred to as jointly controlled entities.
- 16 -
The results and assets and liabilities of associates and joint ventures are incorporated in these consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, an investment in an associates and joint ventures is initially recognized at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognize the Group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associates and joint ventures. Besides, the Group also recognizes the share of the change in equity of the associates and joint ventures.
When the Group subscribes for additional new shares of the associate and joint venture at a percentage different from its existing ownership percentage, the resulting carrying amount of the investment differs from the amount of the Group’s proportionate interest in the associate and joint venture. The Group records such a difference as an adjustment to investments with the corresponding amount charged or credited to capital surplus. If the Group’s ownership interest is reduced due to the additional subscription of the new shares of associate and joint venture, the proportionate amount of the gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that associate is reclassified to profit or loss on the same basis as would be required if the investee had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities. When the adjustment should be debited to capital surplus, but the capital surplus recognized from investments accounted for by the equity method is insufficient, the shortage is debited to retained earnings.
Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of an associate and joint venture recognized at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is not amortized. Any excess of the Group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of acquisition, after reassessment, is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
The entire carrying amount of the investment (including goodwill) is tested for impairment as a single asset by comparing its recoverable amount with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss recognized forms part of the carrying amount of the investment. Any reversal of that impairment loss is recognized to the extent that the recoverable amount of the investment subsequently increases.
When a group entity transacts with its associate and joint venture, profits and losses resulting from the transactions with the associate are recognized in the Group’ consolidated financial statements only to the extent of interests in the associate and joint venture entity that are not related to the Group.
h. Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost, less subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment loss.
Properties in the course of construction for production, supply or administrative purposes are carried at cost, less any recognized impairment loss. Cost includes professional fees and borrowing costs eligible for capitalization. Such properties are depreciated and classified to the appropriate categories of property, plant and equipment when completed and ready for intended use.
Depreciation is recognized using the straight-line method. Each significant part is depreciated separately. The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis.
Any gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognized in profit or loss.
i. Goodwill
For the purpose of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to each of the Group’s cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benefit.
- 17 -
A cash-generating unit to which goodwill has been allocated is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently when there is an indication that the unit may be impaired, by comparing its carrying amount, including the attributable goodwill, with its recoverable amount. However, if the goodwill allocated to a cash-generating unit was acquired in a business combination during the current annual period, that unit shall be tested for impairment before the end of the current annual period. If the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit is less than its carrying amount, the impairment loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit and then to the other assets of the unit pro rata based on the carrying amount of each asset in the unit. Any impairment loss is recognized directly in profit or loss. An impairment loss recognized for goodwill is not reversed in subsequent periods.
When testing for impairment loss for investments in equity, the cash-generating unit is determined based on the financial statements. If the recoverable amount of the asset subsequently increases, the reversal of the impairment loss is recognized as a gain, but the increased carrying amount of an asset after a reversal of an impairment loss shall not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined net of amortization had no impairment loss been recognized on the asset in prior years.
j. Intangible assets
1) Intangible assets acquired separately
Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis. The estimated useful life, residual value, and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis. The residual value of an intangible asset with a finite useful life shall be assumed to be zero unless the Group expects to dispose of the intangible asset before the end of its economic life. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives that are acquired separately are measured at cost less accumulated impairment loss.
- 2) Derecognition of Intangible assets
Intangible asset is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. Gains or losses arising from derecognition of an intangible asset, measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset, are recognized in profit or loss when the asset is derecognized.
k. Impairment of tangible and intangible assets other than goodwill
At the end of each reporting period, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible and intangible assets, excluding goodwill, to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. When it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Group estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. Corporate assets are allocated to the individual cash-generating units on a reasonable and consistent basis of allocation.
Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives and intangible assets not yet available for use are tested for impairment at least annually, and whenever there is an indication that the asset may be impaired.
Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. If the recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is reduced to its recoverable amount.
- 18 -
When an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset or cash-generating unit is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but only to the extent of the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset or cash-generating unit in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.
- l. Financial instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized in Balance Sheet when a Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss) are added to or deducted from the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
- 1) Financial assets
All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis.
a) Measurement category
Financial assets are classified into the following categories: Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, available-for-sale financial assets, and loans and receivables.
- i. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
Derivative financial instruments that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting are stated at fair value, with any gains or losses arising on remeasurement recognized in profit or loss.
- ii. Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated as available-for-sale or are not classified as loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments or financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
Available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value. Changes in the carrying amount of available-for-sale monetary financial assets relating to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest income calculated using the effective interest method and dividends on available-for-sale equity investments are recognized in profit or loss. Other changes in the carrying amount of available-for-sale financial assets are recognized in other comprehensive income and will be reclassified to profit or loss when the investment is disposed of or is determined to be impaired.
Dividends on available-for-sale equity instruments are recognized in profit or loss when the Company’s right to receive the dividends is established.
iii. Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables (primarily including cash and cash equivalent, note receivables, trade receivables, and other receivables) are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment, except for short-term receivables when the effect of discounting is immaterial.
- 19 -
Cash equivalent includes time deposits with original maturities within 3 months from the date of acquisition, highly liquid, readily convertible to a known amount of cash and be subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. These cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments.
- b) Impairment of financial assets
Financial assets are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected.
For financial assets carried at amortized cost, such as trade receivables, assets that are assessed not to be impaired individually are, in addition, assessed for impairment on a collective basis. The Company assesses the collectability of receivables by performing the account aging analysis and examining current trends in the credit quality of its customers.
For financial assets carried at amortized cost, the amount of the impairment loss recognized is 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.
For financial assets measured at amortized cost, 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 was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized.
For available-for-sale equity investments, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the security below its cost is considered to be objective evidence of impairment.
When an available-for-sale financial asset is considered to be impaired, cumulative gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss in the period. In respect of available-for-sale equity securities, impairment loss previously recognized in profit or loss are not reversed through profit or loss. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is recognized in other comprehensive income.
The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables, where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible, it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized in profit or loss except for uncollectible trade receivables that are written off against the allowance account.
- c) Derecognition of financial assets
The Group derecognizes a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another party.
On derecognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable and the cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income is recognized in profit or loss.
-

-
2) Financial liabilities and equity instruments
Debt and equity instruments issued by the Group are classified as either financial liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangements and the definitions of a financial liability and an equity instrument.
- a) Financial liabilities subsequent measurement
Financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
b) Derecognition of financial liabilities
The difference between the carrying amount of the financial liability derecognized and the consideration paid, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed, is recognized in profit or loss.
c) Equity instruments
An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of an entity after deducting all of its liabilities. Equity instruments issued by the Parent Company are recognized at the proceeds received, net of direct issue costs.
Repurchase of the Parent Company’s own equity instruments is recognized in and deducted directly from equity. No gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss on the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of the Parent Company’s own equity instruments.
- 3) Derivative financial instruments
The Group enters into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate and foreign exchange rate risks, including foreign exchange forward contracts and interest rate swaps.
Derivatives are initially recognized at fair value at the date the derivative contracts are entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. The resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss immediately unless the derivative is designated and effective as a hedging instrument, in which event the timing of the recognition in profit or loss depends on the nature of the hedge relationship. When the fair value of derivative financial instruments is positive, the derivative is recognized as a financial asset; when the fair value of derivative financial instruments is negative, the derivative is recognized as a financial liability.
m. Hedge accounting
The Parent Company designates derivative hedging instruments to conduct cash flow hedges. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives is recognized in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in profit or loss. The associated gains or losses that were recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified from equity to profit or loss as a reclassification adjustment in the line item relating to the hedged item in the same period when the hedged item affects profit or loss.
Hedge accounting is discontinued prospectively when the Parent Company revokes the designated hedging relationship, or when the hedging instrument expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, or when it no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting. The cumulative gain or loss on the hedging instrument that has been previously recognized in other comprehensive income from the period when the hedge was effective remains separately in equity until the forecast transaction occurs. When a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the gain or loss accumulated in equity is recognized immediately in profit or loss.
- 21 -
n. Provisions
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When a provision is measured using the cash flows estimated to settle the present obligation, its carrying amount is the present value of those cash flows.
1) Warranties
Provisions for the expected cost of warranty obligations are recognized at the date of sale of the relevant products, at the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the Group’s obligation by the management of the Group.
2) Returns and rebates
The provision of customer returns and rebates was based on historical experience, management’s judgments and other known reasons estimated product returns and rebates may occur in the year. The provision was recognized at the date of sale of the relevant products.
o. Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. Revenue is reduced for estimated customer returns, rebates and other similar allowances. Sales returns are recognized at the time of sale provided the seller can reliably estimate future returns and recognizes a liability for returns based on previous experience and other relevant factors.
1) Sale of goods
Revenue from the sale of goods is recognized when the goods are delivered and titles have passed, at which time all the following conditions are satisfied:
-
a) The Group has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods;
-
b) The Group retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold;
-
c) The amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
-
d) It is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the Group; and
-
e) The costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.
The Group does not recognize sales revenue on materials delivered to subcontractors because this delivery does not involve a transfer of risks and rewards of materials ownership.
Income from properties developed for sale is recognized when construction is complete, rewards of ownership of the properties are transferred to buyers, and collectability of the related receivables is reasonably assured. Deposits received from sales of properties and installment payments are carried in the consolidated balance sheets under current liabilities.
- 22 -
2) Rental revenue
The operation of leasing business was in accordance with IAS 17 “Leases”, that is, the possible situation related to leasing (i.e. the leasing condition, and the burden of future cost) would treat as operating lease.
3) Power transmission income
Power transmission income is recognized at the end of the process of transmitting power from a substation to the power company. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the payment receivable stated in the agreements between the subsidiaries and the power companies. Since payment receivables are due within one year from the balance sheet date, as the nominal value of the payment to be received approximates its fair value and transactions are frequent, the fair value of the payment is not determined by discounting all future receipts using an imputed rate of interest.
4) Dividend and interest income
Dividend income from investments is recognized when the shareholder’s right to receive payment has been established provided that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably.
Interest income from a financial asset is recognized when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of income can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis, by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable.
p. Construction contracts
When the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, revenue and costs are recognized by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the end of the reporting period, measured based on the proportion of contract costs incurred for work performed to date relative to the estimated total contract costs, except where this would not be representative of the stage of completion.
Revenues on and costs of long-term construction contracts are recognized by the percentage-of-completion method, while revenues and costs of short-term construction contracts are recognized by the full-completion method. Under the percentage-of-completion method, the stage of completion of each contract is measured at the ratio of cumulative construction costs to total estimated contract costs.
Construction revenues and costs for the current year is the excess of cumulative construction revenue and costs, determined using the percentage-of-completion method, in excess of the cumulative construction revenue and costs recognized in prior years. Any estimated loss on a construction contract is recognized currently; any subsequent adjustment of this loss is recognized as income or loss in the year of adjustment.
Construction in progress is carried at cost plus estimated construction profit or less estimated losses. Installment payments or collections received from construction projects are credited to progressive billings. Upon completion of each project, these progressive billings are offset against construction in progress.
Construction expenses incurred under the full-completion method are included in construction in progress, while collections received from construction projects are credited to progressive billings. Upon completion of each project, the construction in progress and progressive billings are recognized as construction revenues and costs, respectively.
- 23 -
At year-end, the balances of construction in progress and progressive billings from construction of each project are netted out, and the result is classified as current asset or current liability.
- q. Leasing
Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.
- 1) The Group as lessor
Rental income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.
- 2) The Group as lessee
Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
- r. Retirement benefit costs
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit plans are recognized as an expense when employees have rendered service entitling them to the contributions.
For defined benefit retirement benefit plans, the cost of providing benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method. All actuarial gains and losses on the defined benefit obligation are recognized immediately in other comprehensive income.
The retirement benefit obligation recognized in the balance sheets represents the present value of the defined benefit obligation and reduced by the fair value of plan assets. Any asset resulting from this calculation is limited to the present value of available refunds and reductions in future contributions to the plan.
Curtailment or settlement gains or losses on the defined benefit plan are recognized when the curtailment or settlement occurs.
- s. Taxation
Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax.
- 1) Current tax
According to the Income Tax Law, an additional tax at 10% of unappropriated earnings is provided for as income tax in the year the shareholders approve to retain the earnings.
Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year’s tax provision.
- 2) Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences, research and development expenditures, and personnel training expenditures to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized.
- 24 -
Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences associated with investments in subsidiaries and associates, except where the Company is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilize the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. A previously unrecognized deferred tax asset is also reviewed at the end of each reporting period and recognized to the to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable profit will allow the deferred tax asset to be recovered.
Deferred tax liabilities and assets are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities.
- 3) Current and deferred tax for the year
Current and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss, except when they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case, the current and deferred tax are also recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.
- t. Government grants
Government grants are not recognized until there is reasonable assurance that the Group will comply with the conditions attaching to them and that the grants will be received.
Government grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the Group with no future related costs are recognized in profit or loss in the period in which they become receivable.
5. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY
In the application of the Group’s accounting policies (Note 4), management is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
- a. Impairment of goodwill
Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the cash-generating units to which goodwill has been allocated. The value in use calculation requires management to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from the cash-generating unit and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. Where the actual future cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise.
- 25 -
b. Estimated impairment of trade receivables
When there is objective evidence of impairment loss, the Company takes into consideration the estimation of future cash flows. 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. Where the actual future cash flows are less than expected, a material impairment loss may arise.
c. Income taxes
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which those deferred tax assets can be utilized. Assessment of the realization of the deferred tax assets requires the Company’s subjective judgment and estimation, including the future revenue growth and profitability, tax holidays, the amount of tax credits can be utilized and feasible tax planning strategies. Any changes in the global economic environment, the industry trends and relevant laws and regulations could result in significant adjustments to the deferred tax assets.
d. Derivative instruments and other fair value of financial instruments
As described in Note 30, the Group’s management uses its judgment in selecting an appropriate valuation technique for financial instruments that do not have quoted market price in an active market. Valuation techniques commonly used by market practitioners are applied. For derivative financial instruments, assumptions were based on quoted market rates adjusted for specific features of the instruments. Other financial instruments were valued using a discounted cash flow analysis based on assumptions supported, where possible, by observable market prices or rates. The estimation of fair value of unlisted equity instruments including assumptions based on unobservable market prices or rates. The Group’s management believes that the chosen valuation techniques and assumptions used are appropriate in determining the fair value of financial instruments.
e. Impairment of property, plant and equipment
The impairment of equipment in relation to the production of handsets was based on the recoverable amount of those assets, which is the higher of fair value less costs to sell or value-in-use of those assets. Any changes in the market price or future cash flows will affect the recoverable amount of those assets and may lead to recognition of additional or reversal of impairment losses.
f. Write-down of inventory
Net realizable value of inventory is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated costs of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale. The estimation of net realizable value was based on current market conditions and the historical experience of selling products of a similar nature. Changes in market conditions may have a material impact on the estimation of net realizable value.
- g. Recognition and measurement of defined benefit plans
Accrued pension liabilities and the resulting pension expense under defined benefit pension plans are calculated using the Projected Unit Credit Method. Actuarial assumptions comprise the discount rate, rate of employee turnover, and long-term average future salary increase. Changes in economic circumstances and market conditions will affect these assumptions and may have a material impact on the amount of the expense and the liability.

Cash equivalents include time deposits that have a maturity of 3 months or less from the date of acquisition, are readily convertible to a known amount of cash, and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value; these were held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments.
As of December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the carrying amounts of time deposits with original maturities of over 3 months were NT$125,051 thousand, NT$9,365,207 thousand, and NT$3,633,137 thousand, respectively, which were classified as bond investment for which no active market exists (Note 10).

The economic substance of the pay-fixed receive-floating interest swap contracts listed in the above table is to manage exposures due to the interest rate risk of long-term loans. However, those contracts did not meet the criteria for hedge effectiveness and therefore were not subject to hedge accounting.

The subsidiaries entered into derivative contracts in 2013 and 2012 to manage exposures due to fluctuations of foreign exchange rates. The derivative contracts entered into by the subsidiaries did not meet the criteria for hedge accounting. Thus, the derivative contracts classified as financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss. The financial risk management objectives of the subsidiaries were to minimize risks due to changes in fair value or cash flows.
On financial instruments with fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL), the Group had net losses of NT$67,902 thousand in 2013 and net gains of NT$73,203 thousand in 2012.

The Parent Company’s liabilities with floating interest rate might be affected by changes in the market rate. Thus, future cash flows on those liabilities might fluctuate, exposing the Parent Company to cash flow risk. To hedge against this risk, the Parent Company entered into an interest rate swap contract with a bank to change the floating rate of its liabilities to fixed rate. The cash flow hedge transactions are deemed sufficient.

Although Li Shin International Enterprise Corp. (“Li Shin”), as of December 31, 2012, and January 1, 2012, held less than 20% of the total voting shares of Jhen Vei Electronics Co., Ltd. (“Jhen Vei”), Li Shin’s holding was still significantly higher than that of any other shareholder and was thus deemed to have significant influence over Jhen Vei’s. As a result, Li Shin used the equity method to account for its investment in Jhen Vei.
- 35 -
Lite-On Electronic (Tianjin) Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of the Parent Company, held less than 20% of the equity interest in Epricrystal (Changzhou) Co., Ltd. (“Epricrystal”), but a joint arrangements, LiteStar JV Holding (BVI) Co., Ltd. owned more than 20% interest of Epricrystal, enabling the Group to exercise significant influence. Thus, the Group accounted for this investment by the equity method.
In February 2013, Lite-On Mobile Pte. Ltd. (“Lite-On Mobile”), a subsidiary of the Parent Company, subscribed for shares of Yamada-Lom Fabricacao De Artefatos De Material Plastico Ltda (“Yamada-Lom”) for US$540 thousand in cash. After the subscription, Lite-On Mobile acquired a 25% equity interest in Yamada-Lom and could thus exercise significant influence on this investee.

The goodwill arising from the Parent Company’s acquisition of Lite-On Enclosure Inc. in 2004 was NT$210,220 thousand was amortization approximately over a period of five years. However, under the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports, effective January 1, 2006, goodwill need no longer be amortized. As of December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the carrying value of goodwill were all NT$132,986 thousand.

The Parent Company completed the purchase of some assets of the IrDA Department of Avago Technologies Limited. Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 3 - “Business Combinations” and SFAS No. 38 - “Intangible Assets” define recognized goodwill as the sum of the acquisition cost plus other direct transaction costs minus the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Thus, the calculation of goodwill generated as of December 31, 2009 was as follows:
| Acquisition costs Fair value of identifiable assets acquired Inventories Properties, plant and equipment Patents Client relationships Goodwill |

On April 10, 2006, Lite-On IT Corporation (LOITC) and Qisda Corp. (“Qisda”) signed a contract, under which LOITC will obtain Qisda’s subcontract and manufacturing business on optical storage devices, including related authorization on product manufacturing, technology, technology acquisition, patent rights, etc. for NT$1,226,855 thousand plus 13% equity in LOITC. This acquisition was in line with LOITC’s long-term strategic relationship with Qisda to expand production scale and promote market share.
In their special meeting on November 15, 2007, however, LOITC’s shareholders approved the board of directors’ proposal of August 27, 2007 to cancel the plan to use LOITC’s shares to make the payment and to negotiate instead with Qisda for a new payment mode (i.e., wholly pay in cash) and schedule. LOITC thus paid cash for its acquisition at these amounts: NT$2,695,878 thousand, recorded under intangible assets - patent rights; and NT$2,806,508 thousand, recorded under goodwill.
Except for the goodwill generated through the acquisition of Lite-On Enclosure Inc. by the Parent Company for NT$132,986 thousand, the Parent Company’s purchase of some assets of IrDA Department of Avago Technologies Limited for NT$411,932 thousand, and the goodwill carrying value of NT$2,806,508 thousand recognized by Lite-On IT Corp., resulted in differences between the acquisition costs of the Parent Company’s investments in the subsidiaries and the acquisition costs of the subsidiaries’ investments in other companies; the Parent Company’s proportionate shares in the investees’ equity are listed as follows:

Goodwill is allocated to the Group’s recoverable amount of cash-generating units. The recoverable amount of all cash-generating units has been determined based on value-in-use calculations. These calculations use pre-tax cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by the management covering the future five-year period. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the recoverable amount of all cash-generating units calculated using the value-in-use exceeded their carrying amount, so goodwill was not impaired. The key assumptions used for value-in-use calculations are gross margin, growth rate and discount rate.
Management determined gross margin based on past performance and future profits. The growth rate used is consistent with the forecasts included in industry reports. The discount rates used are pre-tax and reflect specific risks relating to the relevant cash-generating units.

As of November 4, 2002, the outstanding GDRs were 7,627 thousand units, or 38,136 thousand common shares of GVC Corp. For merger purposes, these GDRs were exchanged for the Parent Company’s 1,478 thousand marketable equity securities, which represented the Parent Company’s 14,781 thousand common shares.

b. Capital surplus
The premium from shares issued in excess of par (including share premium from issuance of common shares, conversion of bonds, treasury share transactions, and excess of the consideration received over the carrying amount of the subsidiaries’ net assets during disposal or acquisition) and donations may be used to offset a deficit; in addition, when the Parent Company has no deficit, such capital surplus may be distributed as cash dividends or transferred to capital (limited to a certain percentage of the Parent Company’s capital surplus and once a year).
The capital surplus from long-term investments, employee share options and share warrants may not be used for any purpose.
c. Retained earnings and dividend policy
To ensure the availability of cash for the Parent Company’s present and future expansion plans and to meet shareholders’ cash flow requirements, the Parent Company prefers to distribute more stock dividends. In principle, cash dividends are limited to 10% of total dividends distributed.
The Parent Company’s Articles of Incorporation provide that the annual net income, less any deficit, and 10% legal reserve as well as special reserve equal to the debit balances of the shareholders’ equity accounts, together with the distributable unappropriated earnings of prior years, can be retained partially on the basis of operating requirements. The remainder should be distributed as follows:
-
1) Bonus to employees: At least 1%.
-
2) Bonus to directors: 1.5% or less.
-
3) Others, as dividends.
If the bonus to employees is in the form of shares, it may be distributed to the employees’ subsidiaries. The requirements and the method of distribution of these share bonuses are based on resolutions passed by the board of directors.
For the year ended December 31, 2013, the bonus to employees were estimated on the basis of net income after considering the effect of partial profit on share of subsidiaries and associates at 15%; the remuneration to directors were estimated on the basis of net income at 0.85%. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the bonus to employees and remuneration to directors represented 14.18% and 0.82%, respectively of net income. Material differences between these estimates and the amounts proposed by the Board of Directors in the following year are adjusted in the year of the proposal. If the actual amounts subsequently resolved by shareholders differ from the proposed amounts, the differences are recorded in the year of the shareholders’ resolution as a change in accounting estimate. If stock bonuses are resolved to be distributed to employees, the number of shares is determined by dividing the amount of bonuses by the closing price (after considering the effect of cash and stock dividends) of the shares on the day preceding the shareholders’ meeting.
Under Rule No. 100116 and Rule No. 0950000507 issued by the FSC, an amount equal to the net debit balance of shareholders’ other equity items (including exchange differences on translating foreign operations, unrealized gain (loss) on available-for-sale financial assets, and the gain or loss on the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of cash flow hedge) shall be transferred from unappropriated earnings to a special reserve before any appropriation of earnings generated before January 1, 2012 shall be made. Any special reserve appropriated may be reversed to the extent of the decrease in the net debit balance.
Under Rule No. 1010012865 issued by the FSC on April 6, 2012 and the directive titled “Questions and Answers for Special Reserves Appropriated Following Adoption of IFRSs”, on the first-time adoption of IFRSs, a Parent Company should appropriate to a special reserve of an amount that was the same as these of unrealized revaluation increment and cumulative translation differences (gains) transferred to retained earnings as a result of the Parent Company’s use of exemptions under IFRS 1. However, at
- 53 -
the date of transitions to IFRSs, if the increase in retained earnings that resulted from all IFRSs adjustments is not sufficient for this appropriation, only the increase in retained earnings that resulted from all IFRSs adjustments will be appropriated to special reserve. The special reserve appropriated as above may be reversed in proportion to the usage, disposal or reclassification of the related assets and thereafter distributed. The special reserve appropriated on the first-time adoption of IFRSs may be used to offset deficits in subsequent years. No appropriation of earnings shall be made until any shortage of the aforementioned special reserve is appropriated in subsequent years if the Parent Company has earnings and the original need to appropriate a special reserve is not eliminated.
Appropriation of earnings to legal reserve shall be made until the legal reserve equals the Parent Company’s paid-in capital. Legal reserve may be used to offset deficit. If the Parent Company has no deficit and the legal reserve has exceeded 25% of the Parent Company’s paid-in capital, the excess may be transferred to capital or distributed in cash.
Except for non-ROC resident shareholders, all shareholders receiving the dividends are allowed a tax credit equal to their proportionate share of the income tax paid by the Parent Company.
The appropriations of earnings for 2012 and 2011 had been approved in the shareholders’ meetings on June 19, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The appropriations and dividends per share were as follows:

The 3,669 thousand shares for 2012 was determined by dividing the amount of share bonus resolved in 2013 by the closing price of NT$46.61 (after considering the effect of cash and stock dividends) on the day immediately preceding the shareholders’ meeting.
The appropriation of the earnings for 2012 was approved by the Financial Supervisory Commission, Executive Yuan, ROC. The Parent Company’s board of directors approved August 13, 2013 as the date of distributing stock dividends and cash dividends.

The exchange differences arising on translation of foreign operation’s net assets from its functional currency to the Parent Company’s presentation currency are recognized directly in other comprehensive income and also accumulated in the foreign currency translation reserve.
Unrealized gain/loss on available-for-sale financial assets represents the cumulative gains or losses arising from the fair value measurement on available-for-sale financial assets that are recognized in other comprehensive income, excluding the amounts recognized in profit or loss for the effective portion from changes in fair value of the hedging instruments. When those available-for-sale financial assets have been disposed of or are determined to be impaired subsequently, the related cumulative gains or losses in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss.
The cash flow hedges reserve represents the cumulative effective portion of gains or losses arising on changes in fair value of the hedging instruments entered into as cash flow hedges. The cumulative gain or loss arising on changes in fair value of the hedging instruments that are recognized and accumulated in cash flow hedges reserve will be reclassified to profit or loss only when the hedge transaction affects profit or loss.

The estimated and actual creditable ratio for distribution of earnings of 2013 and 2012 were 3.71% and 3.46%, respectively.
Under the Income Tax Law, for distribution of earnings generated after January 1, 1998, the imputation credits allocated to ROC resident shareholders of the Parent Company was calculated based on the creditable ratio as of the date of dividend distribution. The actual imputation credits allocated to shareholders of the Parent Company was based on the balance of the Imputation Credit Accounts (ICA) as of the date of dividend distribution. Therefore, the expected creditable ratio for the 2013 earnings may differ from the actual creditable ratio to be used in allocating imputation credits to the shareholders.
According to legal interpretation No. 10204562810 announced by the Taxation Administration of the Ministry of Finance, when calculating imputation credits in the year of first-time adoption of IFRSs, the cumulative retained earnings include the net increase or net decrease in retained earnings arising from first-time adoption of IFRSs.

f. Income tax assessments
The tax authorities have examined the income tax returns of the Parent Company through 2011. The Corporation disagreed with the tax authorities’ assessment of its 2009 to 2011 tax returns and applied for a reexamination. The Parent Company has made a provision for the income tax assessed.

|---|---|---|---|
| 2013 $ 3.83 $ 3.79 |
2012 $ 3.25 $ 3.20 |
The earnings and weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding in the computation of earnings per share from continuing operations were as follows:
| 2013 Basic EPS The net income of common shareholders Effect of dilutive potential common stock Bonus to employees Common stock-based compensation Diluted EPS The net income of common shareholders plus the effect of potential dilutive common stock 2012 Basic EPS The net income of common shareholders Effect of dilutive potential common stock Bonus to employees Common stock-based compensation Diluted EPS The net income of common shareholders plus the effect of potential dilutive common stock |

|---|---|
The average number of shares outstanding for EPS calculation was adjusted retroactively for the issuance of stock dividends. Thus, in 2012, basic and diluted EPS decreased from NT$3.27 to NT$3.25 and from NT$3.22 to NT$3.20, respectively.
- 62 -
If the Parent Company was able to settle the bonuses paid to employees by cash or shares, the Parent Company presumed that the entire amount of the bonus would be settled in shares and the resulting potential shares were included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the computation of diluted earnings per share, if the effect is dilutive. Such dilutive effect of the potential shares was included in the computation of diluted earnings per share until the shareholders resolve the number of shares to be distributed to employees at their meeting in the following year.
At the end of 2012, the stock-based compensation exercise price was greater than the average price of the shares, the number of common shares outstanding decreased and earnings per share increased, and these developments had an anti-dilutive effect; thus, these shares were not included in the calculation of diluted EPS.
26. SHARE-BASED PAYMENT ARRANGEMENTS
Employee Share Option Plan
Qualified employees of the Parent Company and its subsidiaries were granted 30,000 options in December 2007. Each option entitles the holder to subscribe for one thousand common shares of the Parent Company. The options granted are valid for 6 years and exercisable at certain percentages after the second, third and fourth anniversary from the grant date. The options were granted at an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Parent Company’s common shares listed on the grant date. For any subsequent changes in the Parent Company’s capital surplus, the exercise price is adjusted accordingly.
Information on employee share options was as follows:

29. CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Group manages its capital to ensure that entities in the Group will be able to continue as going concerns while maximizing the return to shareholders through the optimization of the debt and equity balance.
The Group’s capital management system aims to ensure that the necessary financial resources and operating plan are enough to meet the next 12 months’ requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, research and development expenses, debt repayment, dividend expenses and other need.
30. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
-
a. Fair value of financial instruments
-
1) Fair value of financial instruments not carried at fair value
The fair value of financial instruments not carried at fair value was finance lease payables. The Group’s management considers the carrying amounts of finance lease payables recognized in the financial statements approximate their fair values.
- 2) Fair value measurements recognized in the consolidated balance sheets
The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments that are measured subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable:
-
a) Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
-
b) Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
-
c) Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

- 4) Valuation techniques and assumptions applied for the purpose of measuring fair value
The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities were determined as follows:
-
a) The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities with standard terms and conditions and traded in active liquid markets are determined with reference to quoted market prices;
-
b) The fair values of derivative instruments were calculated using quoted prices. Where such prices were not available, a discounted cash flow analysis was performed using the applicable yield curve for the duration of the instruments for non-optional derivatives, and option pricing models for optional derivatives.
-
c) The fair values of other financial assets and financial liabilities (excluding those described above) were determined in accordance with generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis.

c. Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Group’s major financial instruments include equity investments, trade receivable, trade payables, borrowings. The Group’s Corporate Treasury function provides services to the business, coordinates access to domestic and international financial markets, monitors and manages the financial risks relating to the operations of the Group through internal risk reports which analyze exposures by degree and magnitude of risks. These risks include market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and other price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk.
The Group sought to minimize the effects of these risks by using derivative financial instruments to hedge risk exposures. The use of financial derivatives was governed by the Group’s policies approved by the board of directors, which provided written principles on foreign exchange risk, interest rate risk, credit risk, the use of financial derivatives and non-derivative financial instruments, and the investment of excess liquidity. Compliance with policies and exposure limits was reviewed by the internal auditors on a continuous basis. The Group did not enter into or trade financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments, for speculative purposes.
1) Market risk
The Group’s activities exposed it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates (see (a) below) and interest rates (see (b) below). The Group entered into a variety of derivative financial instruments to manage its exposure to foreign currency risk and interest rate risk, including:
-
a) Forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge the exchange rate risk arising on the export;
-
b) Interest rate swaps to mitigate the risk of rising interest rates; and
There had been no change to the Group’s exposure to market risks or the manner in which these risks were managed and measured.
a) Foreign currency risk
Several subsidiaries of the Parent Company had foreign currency sales and purchases, which exposed the Group to foreign currency risk. Exchange rate exposures were managed within approved policy parameters utilizing forward foreign exchange contracts.
The carrying amounts of the Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the end of the reporting period (Note 34).
The Group required all its group entities to use foreign exchange forward contracts to eliminate currency exposure. It is the Group’s policy to negotiate the terms of the hedge derivatives to match the terms of the hedged item to maximize hedge effectiveness.
- 69 -
The carrying amounts of the Group’s derivatives exposed to foreign currency risk at the end of the reporting period were as follows.

Sensitivity analysis
The Group was mainly exposed to the Currency USD.
The following table details the Group’s sensitivity to a 5% increase and decrease in New Taiwan dollars (the functional currency) against the relevant foreign currencies. The sensitivity analysis included only outstanding foreign currency denominated monetary items A positive number below indicates an increase in pre-tax profit and other equity associated with New Taiwan dollars strengthen 5% against the relevant currency.
For a 5% weakening of New Taiwan dollars against the relevant currency, there would be an equal and opposite impact on pre-tax profit and other equity and the balances below would be negative.
| Profit or loss |
Currency USD Impact | Currency USD Impact | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2013 $ (657,995) |
2012 $ (553,417) |
b) Interest rate risk
The Group was exposed to interest rate risk because entities in the Group borrowed funds at both fixed and floating interest rates. The risk is managed by the Group by maintaining an appropriate mix of fixed and floating rate borrowings, and using interest rate swap contracts and forward interest rate contracts. Hedging activities are evaluated regularly to align with interest rate views and defined risk appetite, ensuring the most cost-effective hedging strategies are applied.
- 70 -
The carrying amount of the Group’s financial assets and financial liabilities with exposure to interest rates at the end of the reporting period were as follows.
| December 31, | December 31, | December 31, | December 31, | ||

-
i: The balances included time deposit and debt investments with no active market
-
ii: The balances included financial liabilities exposed to fair value risk from interest rate fluctuation.
-
iii: The balances included demand deposits.
-
iv: The balances included financial liabilities exposed to cash flow risk from interest rate fluctuation.
The Parent Company aims to keep borrowings at variable rates. In order to achieve this result, the Parent Company entered into interest rate swaps to hedge its exposures to changes in fair values of the borrowings. The critical terms of these interest rate swaps are similar to those of hedged borrowings. These interest rate swaps were designated as effective hedging instruments and hedge accounting is used.
The Parent Company was also exposed to cash flow interest rate risk in relation to variable-rate bank borrowings and pay-fixed/receive-floating interest rate swaps. It is the Parent Company’s policy to keep its borrowings at floating rate of interests so as to minimize the fair value interest rate risk. The Parent Company’s cash flow interest rate risk was mainly concentrated in the fluctuation of the average rate for 90-day notes in Taiwan’s secondary market arising from the Group’s New Taiwan dollars denominated borrowings.
Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analyses below were determined based on the Group’s exposure to interest rates for both derivatives and non-derivative instruments at the end of the reporting period. For floating rate liabilities, the analysis was prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding at the end of the reporting period was outstanding for the whole year.
If interest rates had been 25 basis points higher and all other variables were held constant, the Group’s pre-tax profit for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 would increase by NT$15,495 thousand and NT$1,426 thousand.
- c) Other price risk
The Group was exposed to equity price risk through its investments in listed equity securities. Equity investments are held for strategic rather than trading purposes. The Group does not actively trade these investments.
- 71 -
Sensitivity analysis
The sensitivity analyses below were determined based on the exposure to equity price risks at the end of the reporting period.
If equity prices had been 7% higher, the pre-tax other comprehensive income for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 would increase by NT$85,683 thousand and NT$65,730 thousand as a result of the changes in fair value of available-for-sale shares.
2) Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial loss to the Group.
The Group is exposed to credit risk from trade receivables, deposits, and other financial instruments. Credit risk on business-related exposures is managed separately from that on financial-related exposures.
a) Business related credit risk
To maintain the quality of receivables, the Group has established operating procedures to manage credit risk.
For individual customers, risk factors considered include the customer’s financial position, credit rating agency rating, the Group’s internal credit rating, and transaction history as well as current economic conditions that may affect the customer’s ability to pay. The Group also has the right to use some credit protection enhancement tools, such as requiring advance payments, to reduce the credit risks involving certain customers.
- b) Financial credit risk
Bank deposits and other financial instruments are credit risk sources required by the Parent Company’s Department of Finance Department to be measured and monitored. However, since the Group’s counter-parties are all reputable financial institutions and government agencies, there is no significant financial credit risk.
3) Liquidity risk
The Group manages liquidity risk by monitoring and maintaining a level of cash and cash equivalents deemed adequate to finance the Group’s operations.
The objective of liquidity risk management, the department is required to maintain operating cash and cash equivalents, in order to ensure that the combined company has sufficient financial flexibility.

4) Explanations of significant reconciling items in the transition to IFRSs
Material differences between the accounting policies under ROC GAAP and the accounting policies adopted under IFRSs were as follows:
- a) Bank deposits with original maturity more than 3 months
Under ROC GAAP, the term “cash and cash equivalents” used in the financial statements includes cash on hand, demand deposits, check deposits, time deposits that are cancelable but without any loss of principal and negotiable certificates of deposit that are readily salable without any loss of principal. However, under IFRSs, cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes. An investment normally qualifies as a cash equivalent only when it has a short maturity of 3 months or less from the date of acquisition. Thus, some certificates of deposit the Group held that had maturities of more than 3 months from the date of investment have been reclassified to bond investments with no active market.
As of December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the amounts reclassified to bond investments with no active market were NT$9,365,207 thousand and NT$3,633,137 thousand, respectively.
- b) Allowance for sales returns and discounts
Under ROC GAAP, provisions for estimated sales returns and discounts are recognized as a reduction of revenue in the period the related revenue is recognized on the basis of historical experience. Allowance for sales returns and discounts is recorded as a deduction from accounts receivable. Under IFRSs, the allowance for sales returns and discounts is a present obligation arising from past events and with uncertain timing of settlement and is thus reclassified to provisions.
As of December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the amounts reclassified from allowance for sales returns and discounts to provisions were NT$774,156 thousand and NT$372,114 thousand, respectively.
- c) Classifications of deferred income tax asset/liability and valuation allowance
Under ROC GAAP, valuation allowances are provided to the extent, if any, that it is more likely than not that deferred income tax assets will not be realized. Under IFRSs, deferred tax assets are only recognized to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which the deductible temporary differences can be used; thus, a valuation allowance account is not needed.
In addition, under ROC GAAP, a deferred tax asset and liability is classified as current or noncurrent in accordance with the related asset or liability for financial reporting. However, if a deferred income tax asset or liability does not relate to an asset or liability in the financial statements, it is classified as current or noncurrent on the basis of the expected length of time before it is realized or settled. Under IFRSs, a deferred tax asset and liability is classified as noncurrent asset or liability.
As of December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the amounts reclassified from deferred income tax assets - current to deferred income tax assets - noncurrent were NT$1,110,308 thousand and NT$951,668 thousand, respectively.

84 -
-
d) Offsetting between deferred tax assets/liabilities
Under ROC GAAP, deferred current tax assets - current should be offset against deferred tax liability - current under the same taxable entity. The same rule applies to deferred tax asset/liability - noncurrent. Under IFRSs, an entity is eligible to offset tax assets against tax liabilities generated from the same taxable entity only (a) if the entity has a legally enforceable right to make this offset and (b) the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authorities on either the same taxable entity or different taxable entities that intend either to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.
As of December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the offset amounts of the Group’s deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities were NT$1,087,112 thousand and NT$1,150,623 thousand, respectively.
- e) Classification of leased assets and idle asset
Under ROC GAAP, leased assets and idle assets are classified under other assets and idle assets. Under IFRSs, the aforementioned items are classified as properties in accordance with their nature. Leased assets are mainly dormitories leased to employees and factories leased to suppliers. Based on IAS 40 - “Investment Property,” the dormitories leased to employees and factories leased to suppliers are not considered investment properties since they cannot be sold separately and comprise only an insignificant portion of the plant.
As of December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the amount reclassified from leased assets and idle assets to properties were NT$314,627 thousand and NT$249,381 thousand, respectively.
- f) Financial assets carried at cost
Under Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers before its amendment, the non-publicly traded stocks or stocks that are not traded in the Emerging Stock Market and pertaining to an investment in which the investor has no significant influence on the investee should be measured as financial assets carried at cost.
Under IFRSs, the financial instruments designated as at fair value through other comprehensive income and financial assets carried at cost should be classified as at fair value through profit or loss.
As of December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the Group’s financial assets carried at cost reclassified to available for sale financial assets amounted to NT$1,122,230 thousand and NT$1,487,972 thousand, respectively.
- g) Reserve for land value increment tax
Based on the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, land revaluation surplus is classified as reserve for land value increment tax and recorded under other liabilities. Under IFRSs, the Group reclassified land value increment tax to deferred income tax liabilities. As of both December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the amount reclassified from land value increment tax to deferred income tax liabilities were NT$239,693 thousand.
h) Classification of deferred expenses
Under ROC GAAP, deferred expenses are recorded under other assets. Under IFRSs, the Group reclassified deferred expenses to other current assets, properties, intangible assets, and other noncurrent assets in accordance with their nature.
- 85 -
As of December 31, 2012, the Group had reclassified deferred expenses of NT$17,618 thousand, NT$1,189,471 thousand, NT$516,087 thousand and NT$343,840 thousand to other current assets, properties, intangible assets and other noncurrent assets, respectively.
As of January 1, 2012, the Group had reclassified deferred expenses of NT$12,858 thousand, NT$1,296,031 thousand, NT$598,025 thousand and NT$366,682 thousand to other current assets, properties, intangible assets and other noncurrent assets, respectively.
- i) Land use rights
Under ROC GAAP, land use rights are classified as intangible asset. Under IFRSs, based on their nature, a land use right is classified as prepayment in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) No. 17 - “Leases.”
As of December 31, 2012, the Group’s land use rights reclassified to other current assets and other noncurrent assets amounted to NT$1,678 thousand and NT$570,841 thousand, respectively.
As of January 1, 2012, the Group’s land use rights reclassified to other current assets and other noncurrent assets amounted to NT$1,709 thousand and NT$618,502 thousand, respectively.
- j) Classification of the prepayments for equipment
Under ROC GAAP, the prepayments for equipment are usually recorded under fixed assets. Under IFRSs, prepayments for equipment are usually recorded under other current assets or other noncurrent assets.
As of December 31, 2012, on the basis of the nature of the prepayments for equipment, the Group reclassified prepayments for equipment to other current assets and other noncurrent assets of NT$73,410 thousand and NT$1,236,480 thousand, respectively.
As of January 1, 2012, on the basis of the nature of the prepayments for equipment, the Group reclassified prepayments for equipment to other current assets and other noncurrent assets of NT$48,426 thousand and NT$2,631,249 thousand, respectively.
- k) Treasury stock
Under ROC GAAP on the accounting for treasury stocks, effective January 1, 2002, the Group accounted for its shares held by its subsidiary as treasury stock when it recognized the investment income at the market price. The difference in carrying value and market value of this treasury stock was recorded as unrealized loss on available-for-sale financial assets. Under IFRSs, treasury shares are recognized immediately at the time when treasury shares are acquired by subsidiaries.
As of both December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the Group’s unrealized loss of NT$230,587 thousand on available-for-sale financial assets was reclassified to treasury stock.
- l) Capitalization of lease payments
Under ROC GAAP, lease payments are recorded as rental expense in the period the lessee actually uses the item leased. Under IFRSs, they should be capitalized as part of asset acquisition cost.
As of December 31, 2012, the IFRS-based adjustment resulted in increases in properties by NT$227,744 thousand and unappropriated earnings by NT$15,138 thousand, respectively.
- 86 -
As of January 1, 2012, the IFRS-based adjustment resulted in increases in properties by NT$34,845 thousand and unappropriated earnings by NT$33,084 thousand, respectively.
The depreciation expense for the year ended 2012 was adjusted for an increase of NT$16,150 thousand (recorded as operating expenses).
m) Employee benefits
The Group had previously applied actuarial valuation to its defined benefit obligations and recognized the related pension cost and retirement benefit obligation in conformity with ROC GAAP. Under IFRSs, the Group should carry out actuarial valuation on defined benefit obligations in accordance with IAS No. 19 - “Employee Benefits.” The Group has opted to recognize actuarial gains and losses as other comprehensive income immediately in full in the period in which they occur. The subsequent reclassification to earnings is not permitted.
At the transition date, the Group performed the actuarial valuation under IAS No. 19 - “Employee Benefits” and recognized the valuation difference directly as retained earnings under IFRS 1. As of December 31, 2012, the IFRS-based adjustments resulted in (a) increases in deferred income tax assets by NT$13,245 thousand; accrued pension liabilities by NT$131,476 thousand; and (b) decreases in other noncurrent assets by NT$15,413 thousand; unappropriated earnings by NT$79,141 thousand; noncontrolling interests by NT$42,876 thousand.
At the transition date, the Group performed the actuarial valuation under IAS No. 19 - “Employee Benefits” and recognized the valuation difference directly as retained earnings under IFRS 1. As of January 1, 2012, the IFRS-based adjustments resulted in (a) increases in deferred income tax assets by NT$7,624 thousand; other noncurrent assets by NT$46,252 thousand; accrued pension liabilities by NT$81,378 thousand; and (b) decreases in unappropriated earnings by NT$3,104 thousand.
For the year ended 2012, IFRS adoption resulted in a decrease of NT$11,571 thousand (NT$9,730 thousand recorded as cost of sales and NT$1,841 thousand recorded as operating expenses) in salary expenses and an increase of NT$1,434 thousand in income tax.
n) Employee benefits - short-term accumulated compensated absences
Under ROC GAAP, there are no specific requirements for recognizing accumulated compensated absences at the end of reporting periods. The Group usually recognize the related costs when the employees actually go on leave. Under IFRSs, the expected cost of short-term accumulated compensated absences should be recognized as the employees render services that increase their entitlement to these compensated absences.
As of December 31, 2012, the IFRS-based evaluation adjustment resulted in increases in other payables by NT$248,303 thousand. This adjustment also resulted in decreases in unappropriated earnings by NT$187,443 thousand and noncontrolling interests by NT$50,875 thousand.
As of January 1, 2012, the IFRS-based evaluation adjustment resulted in increases in deferred income tax assets by NT$6,471 and other payables by NT$256,609 thousand. This adjustment also resulted in decreases in unappropriated earnings by NT$179,786 thousand and noncontrolling interests by NT$70,352 thousand.
For the year ended December 31, 2012, IFRS adoption resulted in an increase of NT$9,073 thousand (resulting in a decrease of NT$14,820 thousand in cost of sales and an increase of NT$23,893 thousand in operating expenses) in salary expenses and NT$1,277 thousand in income tax.

o) Investments accounted for using the equity method
The Parent Company has evaluated significant differences between current accounting policies and IFRSs for the Group’s associates and joint ventures accounted for by the equity method. The significant difference is mainly due to the adjustment to employee benefits and leases.
As of December 31, 2012, the differences mentioned above resulted in an increase in unappropriated earnings by NT$175,012 thousand. In addition, the adjustment resulted in decreases in investments accounted for by the equity method by NT$49,346 thousand and capital surplus by NT$255,568 thousand.
As of January 1, 2012, the differences mentioned above resulted in an increase in unappropriated earnings by NT$91,583 thousand. In addition, the adjustment resulted in decreases in investments accounted for by the equity method by NT$75,436 thousand and capital surplus by NT$168,671 thousand.
For the year ended 2012, the IFRS-based adjustments resulted in increases in investment income recognized under the equity method by NT$2,501 thousand, and a decrease of NT$24 thousand in income tax.
- p) Accounting treatment of the Parent Company for increases in carrying values of equity-method investments due to not subscribing proportionally to the additional shares issued by the investees and relevant adjustment of capital surplus - long-term equity investment.
Under ROC GAAP, if an investee issues new shares and an investor does not buy new shares proportionately, the investor’s ownership percentage and its interest in net assets of the investment will change. The resulting difference should be used to adjust the capital surplus and long-term equity investment accounts.
Under IFRSs, any equity changes in the invested associates without the loss of significant influence on the associates will be recognized as a deemed acquisition or a deemed disposal of the shares in the invested associates. Any equity changes in the invested subsidiaries without losing significant control over the subsidiaries will be deemed equity transactions. In addition, in accordance with the “Q&A on the Adoption of IFRSs” issued by the Taiwan Stock Exchange, capital surplus not covered by the IFRSs, the ROC Company Law and the relevant legal interpretations of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, ROC should be adjusted accordingly at the date of transition to IFRSs.
As of December 31, 2012, the foregoing adjustments resulted in a decrease of NT$651,137 thousand in capital surplus - long term investments and an increase of NT$651,137 thousand in unappropriated earnings.
As of January 1, 2012, the foregoing adjustments resulted in a decrease of NT$738,398 thousand in capital surplus - long term investments and an increase of NT$738,398 thousand in unappropriated earnings.
- q) Employee benefits - minimum pension liability to be recognized
Under ROC GAAP, the minimum pension liability should be should be recognized as such in the balance sheet; if the accrued pension liability is lower than this minimum, any shortfall should be recorded.
Under the IFRSs, there is no requirement for recognizing minimum pension liability.
- 88 -
As of December 31, 2012, net loss not recognized as pension cost was adjusted for an increase of NT$29,536 thousand and a decrease of NT$29,536 thousand in unappropriated earnings.
As of January 1, 2012, net loss not recognized as pension cost was adjusted for an increase of NT$17,182 thousand and a decrease of NT$17,182 thousand in unappropriated earnings.
- r) Disposal of partial shares without losing significant influence on the investee
Under ROC GAAP, if the stock ownership percentage changes during the year, the investor company should recognize investment gains or losses in proportion to the actual stock ownership percentage on the disposition date.
Under IFRSs, disposal of the shares of subsidiaries without losing significant control over the subsidiaries is deemed an equity transaction.
As of December 31, 2012, the IFRS-based adjustments resulted in an increase of NT$146,193 thousand in capital surplus - difference between consideration and carry amounts adjusted arising from changes in percentage of ownership in subsidiaries, and a decrease of NT$146,193 thousand in the gain on disposal of investments.
- s) The reclassification of line items in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income
Under IFRSs, based on the nature of operating transactions, the Group reclassified a repair and warranty expense of NT$94,250 thousand for year ended 2012 to cost of sales.
- 5) Explanation of material adjustments to the statement of cash flows.
The Parent Company partially disposed of its interest in Subsidiary-Silitech Technology Corp. without loss of control for the year ended December 31, 2012. Under R.O.C. GAAP, the resulting cash flows were classified as investing activities. Under IAS 7 “Statement of Cash Flows”, the resulting cash flows of NT$288,198 thousand were classified as financing activities.
Time deposits that can be readily cancelled without eroding the principal and negotiable certificates of deposit that can be readily sold without eroding the principal meet the definition of cash in accordance with ROC GAAP. However, under IAS 7” Statement of Cash Flow”, cash equivalents are held for the purpose of meeting short-term cash commitments rather than for investment or other purposes. For an investment to qualify as a cash equivalent it must be readily convertible to a known amount of cash and be subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. An investment normally qualifies as a cash equivalent only when it has a short maturity of, say, 3 months or less from the date of acquisition. Therefore, time deposits with a carrying amount of NT$9,365,207 thousand and NT$3,633,137 thousand as of December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, respectively, held by the Group was for investment purposes and thus no longer classified as cash under IFRSs.
According to ROC GAAP, interest paid and received and dividends received are classified as operating activities while dividends paid are classified as financing activities. Additional disclosure is required for interest expenses when reporting cash flow using indirect method. However, under IAS 7” Statement of Cash Flow”, cash flows from interest and dividends received and paid shall each be disclosed separately. Each shall be classified in a consistent manner from period to period as operating, investing or financing activities. Therefore, interests received, interests paid and dividends received by the Group of NT$1,047,096 thousand, NT$536,643 thousand and NT$57,166 thousand, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2012 were presented separately at the date of transition to IFRSs.
Except for the above differences, there are no other significant differences between ROC GAAP and IFRSs in the statement of cash flows.
