Lite-On Technology Corporation and Subsidiaries

Consolidated Financial Statements for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 and Independent Auditors’ Review Report

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REVIEW REPORT

The Board of Directors and Shareholders Lite-On Technology Corporation

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Lite-On Technology Corporation (“Parent Company”) and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Group”) as of September 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013 and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 and changes in equity and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Parent Company’s management. Our responsibility is to issue a report on these consolidated financial statements based on our reviews.

Except as stated in the following paragraph, we conducted our reviews in accordance with Statement of Auditing Standards No. 36 “Review of Financial Statements” issued by the Auditing Standards Committee of the Accounting Research and Development Foundation of the Republic of China. A review consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and of making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

As disclosed in Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements, we did not review the financial statements as of and for the nine months September 30, 2014 and 2013 of some consolidated subsidiaries. The assets of these subsidiaries were 21.74% (NT$45,946,374 thousand) and 31.91% (NT$65,628,304 thousand) of the consolidated total assets as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The liabilities of these subsidiaries were 16.86% (NT$22,846,660 thousand) and 22.66% (NT$29,418,577 thousand) of the consolidated total liabilities as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The comprehensive incomes of these subsidiaries were 15.40% (NT$263,927 thousand), 26.66% (NT$567,308 thousand), 20.55% (NT$897,067 thousand) and 25.63% (NT$2,221,476 thousand) of the total comprehensive income in the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 and the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Also, as disclosed in Note 15 to the financial statements, the Group had other investments accounted for by the equity method. The carrying values of these investments of NT$1,950,242 thousand and NT$1,888,587 thousand as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and share of the profit (loss) of associates and joint ventures of NT$42,957 thousand, NT$30,674 thousand, NT$22,855 thousand and NT$74,867 thousand in the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 and in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and related investment amounts as well as additional disclosures in Note 38 were based on these investees’ financial statements for the same reporting periods as those of the Group, many of which had been unreviewed.

  • 1 -

Based on our reviews, except for the adjustments that might have been determined to be necessary had the subsidiaries’ and other equity-method investees’ financial statements mentioned in the preceding paragraph and the information disclosed in Note 38 been reviewed, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated financial statements of Lite-On Technology Corporation and its subsidiaries referred to above for them to be in conformity with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

November 11, 2014

Notice to Readers

For the convenience of readers, the independent auditors’ review report and the accompanying consolidated 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 independent auditors’ review report and consolidated financial statements shall prevail.

New, Amended and Revised Standards and Interpretations (the “New IFRSs”)

Effective Date Announced by IASB (Note)

Improvements to IFRSs (2009) - amendment to IAS 39 January 1, 2009 and January 1, 2010, as appropriate Amendment to IAS 39 “Embedded Derivatives” Effective for annual periods ended on or after June 30, 2009 Improvements to IFRSs (2010) July 1, 2010 and January 1, 2011, as appropriate Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2009-2011 Cycle January 1, 2013 Amendment to IFRS 7 “Disclosure - Offsetting Financial Assets and January 1, 2013 Financial Liabilities” Amendment to IFRS 7 “Disclosure - Transfer of Financial Assets” July 1, 2011 IFRS 10 “Consolidated Financial Statements” January 1, 2013 IFRS 11 “Joint Arrangements” January 1, 2013 IFRS 12 “Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities” January 1, 2013 Amendments to IFRS 10, IFRS 11 and IFRS 12 “Consolidated January 1, 2013 Financial Statements, Joint Arrangements and Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities: Transition Guidance” Amendments to IFRS 10 and IFRS 12 and IAS 27 “Investment January 1, 2014 Entities” IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement” January 1, 2013 Amendment to IAS 1 “Presentation of Other Comprehensive Income” July 1, 2012 Amendment to IAS 12 “Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying January 1, 2012 Assets” IAS 19 (Revised 2011) “Employee Benefits” January 1, 2013 IAS 28 (Revised 2011) “Investments in Associates and Joint January 1, 2013 Ventures” Amendment to IAS 32 “Offsetting Financial Assets and Financial January 1, 2014 Liabilities” IFRIC 20 “Stripping Costs in Production Phase of a Surface Mine” January 1, 2013

Note: Unless stated otherwise, the above New IFRSs are effective for annual periods beginning on or after the respective effective dates.

Except for the following, the initial application of the above 2013 IFRSs version has not had any material impact on the Group’s accounting policies:

1) 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.

2) IFRS 11 “Joint Arrangements”

IFRS 11 replaces IAS 31 “Interests in Joint Ventures” and SIC 13 “Jointly Controlled Entities - Non-monetary Contributions by Ventures”. Joint arrangements are classified as joint operations or joint ventures, depending on the rights and obligations of the parties to the arrangements. Joint ventures are accounted for using the equity method. Under IAS 31, Joint arrangements are classified as jointly controlled entities, jointly controlled assets, and jointly controlled operations,

  • 11 -

and the Group accounts for its jointly controlled entities using the proportionate consolidation method.

  • 3) 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.

  • 4) Revision to IAS 28 “Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures”

Revised IAS 28 requires when a portion of an investment in an associate 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. Under current IAS 28, 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.

Under revised IAS 28, when an investment in a joint venture becomes an investment in an associate, the Group continues to apply the equity method and does not remeasure the retained interest. Under current IAS 28, on the loss of joint control, the Group measures at fair value any investment the Group retains in the former jointly controlled entity. The Group recognizes in profit or loss any difference between the aggregate amounts of fair value of retained investment and proceeds from disposing of the part interest in the jointly controlled entity, and the carrying amount of the investment at the date when joint control is lost.

  • 5) 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.

The fair value measurements under IFRS 13 will be applied prospectively from January 1, 2015.

  • 6) 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 items that (1) will not be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss; and (2) may be reclassified subsequently to profit or loss. Income taxes on related items of other comprehensive income are grouped on the same basis. Under current IAS 1, there were no such requirements.

The Group will apply the above amendments in presenting the consolidated statement of comprehensive income, starting from the year 2015. Items not expected to be reclassified to profit or loss are the actuarial gain (loss) arising from defined benefit plans and share of the actuarial gains (loss) arising from defined benefit plans of associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method. Items expected to be reclassified to profit or loss are the exchange differences on translating foreign operations, unrealized gains (loss) on available-for-sale financial assets, cash flow hedges, and share of the other comprehensive income (except the share of the actuarial gains (loss) arising from defined benefit plans) of associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method.

  • 12 -

  • 7) Revision to IAS 19 “Employee Benefits”

Revised IAS 19 requires the recognition of changes in defined benefit obligations and in the fair value of plan assets when they occur, and hence eliminate the “corridor approach” permitted under current IAS 19 and accelerate the recognition of past service costs. The revision requires all actuarial gains and losses to be recognized immediately through other comprehensive income in order for the net pension asset or liability to reflect the full value of the plan deficit or surplus. Furthermore, the interest cost and expected return on plan assets used in current IAS 19 are replaced with a “net interest” amount, which is calculated by applying the discount rate to the net defined benefit liability or asset.

  • Note 1: Unless stated otherwise, the above New IFRSs are effective for annual periods beginning on or after their respective effective dates.

  • Note 2: The amendment to IFRS 2 applies to share-based payment transactions with grant date on or after July 1, 2014; the amendment to IFRS 3 applies to business combinations with acquisition date on or after July 1, 2014; the amendment to IFRS 13 is effective immediately; the remaining amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2014.

The initial application of the above New IFRSs has not had any material impact on the Group’s accounting policies, except for the following:

  • 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. Under IFRS 9, the requirement for the classification of financial assets is stated below.

For the Group’s debt instruments that have contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding, their classification and measurement are as follows:

  • a) For debt instruments, if they are held within a business model whose objective is to collect the contractual cash flows, the financial assets are measured at amortized cost and are assessed for impairment continuously with impairment loss recognized in profit or loss, if any. Interest revenue is recognized in profit or loss by using the effective interest method;

  • b) For debt instruments, if they are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets, the financial assets are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVTOCI) and are assessed for impairment. Interest revenue is recognized in profit or loss by using the effective interest method, and other gain or loss shall be recognized in other comprehensive income, except for impairment gains or losses and foreign exchange gains and losses. When the debt instruments is derecognized or reclassified the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified from equity to profit or loss.

Except for above, all other financial assets are measured at fair value through profit or loss. 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. No subsequent impairment assessment is required, and the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in other comprehensive income cannot be reclassified from equity to profit or loss.

  • 15 -

The impairment of financial assets

IFRS 9 requires that impairment loss on financial assets is recognized by using the “Expected Credit Losses Model”. The credit loss allowance is required for financial assets measured at amortized cost, financial assets mandatorily measured at FVTOCI, lease receivables, contract assets arising from IFRS 15 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”, certain written loan commitments and financial guarantee contracts. A loss allowance for the 12-month expected credit losses is required for a financial asset if its credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition. A loss allowance for full lifetime expected credit losses is required for a financial asset if its credit risk has increased significantly since initial recognition and is not low. However, a loss allowance for full lifetime expected credit losses is required for trade receivables that do not constitute a financing transaction.

For purchased or originated credit-impaired financial assets, the Group takes into account the expected credit losses on initial recognition in calculating the credit-adjusted effective interest rate. Subsequently, any changes in expected losses are recognized as a loss allowance with a corresponding gain or loss 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.

  • 2) 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.

3) IFRIC 21 “Levies”

IFRIC 21 provides guidance on when to recognize a liability for a levy imposed by a government. It addresses the accounting for a liability whose timing and amount is certain and the accounting for a provision whose timing or amount is not certain. The Group accrues related liability when the transaction or activity that triggers the payment of the levy occurs. Therefore, if the obligating event occurs over a period of time (such as generation of revenue over a period of time), the liability is recognized progressively. If an obligation to pay a levy is triggered upon reaching a minimum threshold (such as a minimum amount of revenue or sales generated), the liability is recognized when that minimum threshold is reached.

  • 4) Annual Improvements to IFRSs: 2010-2012 Cycle

Several standards including IFRS 2 “Share-based Payment”, IFRS 3 “Business Combinations” and IFRS 8 “Operating Segments” were amended in this annual improvement.

  • 16 -

The amended IFRS 2 changes the definitions of “vesting condition” and “market condition” and adds definitions for “performance condition” and “service condition”. The amendment clarifies that a performance target can be based on the operations (i.e. a non-market condition) of the Group or another entity in the same group or the market price of the equity instruments of the Group or another entity in the same group (i.e. a market condition); that a performance target can relate either to the performance of the Group as a whole or to some part of it (e.g. a division); and that the period for achieving a performance condition must not extend beyond the end of the related service period. In addition, a share market index target is not a performance condition because it not only reflects the performance of the Group, but also of other entities outside the Group.

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.

The amended IFRS 8 requires an entity to disclose the judgments made by management in applying the aggregation criteria to operating segments, including a description of the operating segments aggregated and the economic indicators assessed in determining whether the operating segments have “similar economic characteristics”. The amendment also clarifies that a reconciliation of the total of the reportable segments’ assets to the entity’s assets should only be provided if the segments’ assets are regularly provided to the chief operating decision-maker.

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.

  • 5) Annual Improvements to IFRSs: 2011-2013 Cycle

Several standards including IFRS 3, IFRS 13 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.

  • 6) IFRS 15 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”

IFRS 15 establishes principles for recognizing revenue that apply to all contracts with customers, and will supersedes IAS 18 “Revenue”, IAS 11 “Construction Contracts” and a number of revenue-related interpretations from January 1, 2017.

  • 17 -

When applying IFRS 15, an entity shall recognize revenue by applying the following steps:

  • Identify the contract with the customer;

  • Identify the performance obligations in the contract;

  • Determine the transaction price;

  • Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contracts; and

  • Recognize revenue when the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

When IFRS 15 is effective, an entity may elect to apply this Standard either retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying this Standard recognized at the date of initial application.

  • 7) Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28 “Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture”

The amendments stipulated that, when an entity sells or contributes assets that constitute a business (as defined in IFRS 3) to an associate or joint venture, the gain or loss resulting from the transaction is recognized in full. Also, when an entity loses control of a subsidiary that contains a business but retains significant influence or joint control, the gain or loss resulting from the transaction is recognized in full.

Also, when an entity loses control of a subsidiary that does not contain a business but retains significant influence or joint control in an associate or a joint venture, the gain or loss resulting from the transaction is recognized only to the extent of the unrelated investors’ interest in the associate or joint venture, i.e. the entity’s share of the gain or loss is eliminated.

  • 8) Annual Improvements to IFRSs: 2012-2014 Cycle

Several standards including IFRS 5 “Non-current assets held for sale and discontinued operations”, IFRS 7 and IAS 34 were amended in this annual improvement.

IFRS 5 was amended to clarify that reclassification between non-current assets (or disposal group) “held for sale” and non-current assets “held for distribution to owners” does not constitute a change to a plan of sale or distribution. Therefore, previous accounting treatment is not reversed. The amendment also explains that assets that no longer meet the criteria for “held for distribution to owners” and do not meet the criteria for “held for sale” should be treated in the same way as assets that cease to be classified as held for sale.

The amendments to IFRS 7 provide additional guidance to clarify whether a servicing contract is continuing involvement in a transferred asset. In addition, the amendments clarify that the offsetting disclosures are not explicitly required for all interim periods; however, the disclosures may need to be included in condensed interim financial statements to comply with IAS 34 under specific conditions.

IAS 34 was amended to clarify that other disclosure information required by IAS 34 should be included in interim financial statements. If the Group includes the information in other statements (such as management commentary or risk report) issued at the same time, it is not required to repeat the disclosure in the interim financial statements. However, it is required to include a cross-reference from the interim financial statements to that issued statements that is available to users on the same terms and at the same time as the interim financial statements.

Except for the above impact, as of the date the consolidated financial statements were authorized for issue, the Group is continuingly assessing the possible impact that the application of other standards and interpretations will have on the Group’s financial position and financial performance, and will disclose the relevant impact when the assessment is complete.

4. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The same accounting policies of these consolidated financial statements have been followed as were applied in the preparation of the Group’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2013, except for those described below.

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 IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” as endorsed by the FSC. Disclosure information included in the consolidated financial statements is less than those required in a complete set of annual financial statements.

For the convenience of readers, the independent accountants’ review report and the accompanying consolidated 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 independent accountants’ review report and consolidated financial statements shall prevail.

The subsidiaries entered into derivative contracts during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 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 (a) net gains of $132,822 thousand and $10,580 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and (b) net gains of $184,537 thousand and net losses of $49,173 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

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.

The outstanding interest rate swap contracts of the Parent Company at the end of the reporting period were as follows:

Starting from March 28, 2014, the Group has no power to govern the financial and operating policies of Logah Technology Corp. The Group used the fair value measurement for its investments after it lost control of Logah Technology Corp. (please refer to Note 30). The Group still has significant influence on Logah Technology Corp.; thus, the Group accounted for this investment by the equity method.

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 an equity-method investee of the Parent Company, 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 January 2013, Li Shin International Enterprise Corp. (“Li Shin”) (the Parent Company had a merger with Li Shin on March 22, 2014), a subsidiary of the Parent Company, disposed of interests in Jhen Vei Electronics Co., Ltd. (“Jhen Vei”) and received proceeds of $111,476 thousand; thus Li Shin ceased to have significant influence on Jhen Vei. This transaction resulted in the recognition of a gain in profit or loss, calculated as follows:

Proceeds of disposal

Carrying amount of investment on the date of loss of significant influence

Gain recognized (recorded as nonoperating income and expense: Gain on disposal
of investments)
$ 111,476

(75,526)
$ 35,950

The equity-method investees’ financial statements, which had been used to determine the carrying amount of the Group’s investments share of profit and other comprehensive income of associates, had not been reviewed, except for the financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 of Lite-On Semiconductor Corp. and the financial statements as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 of Logah Technology Corp.

On Lite-On Green Technologies B.V. (LOGTBV), a subsidiary of the Parent Company, there was objective evidence that the fair value of investment in jointly controlled Kompaktsolar GmbH was below its carrying cost and will permanently decline. As a result, the Group recognized an impairment loss of $10,682 thousand in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

To integrate its overall resources and enhance the efficiency of operations, the Parent Company had short-form mergers - in accordance with Article 19 of the Business Mergers and Acquisitions Act - with Li Shin International Enterprise Corp., Lite-On Automotive Corp., Leotek Electronics Corp., Lite-On IT Corp. and LarView Technologies Corp. on March 22, 2014, June 1, 2014, June 29, 2014, June 30, 2014 and September 1, 2014, respectively, under the board of directors’ approval. The Parent Company was the survivor entity in all of these mergers. The total amount of $5,381,238 thousand of the cash-generating units - to which goodwill had been allocated - of Li Shin International Enterprise Corp., Lite-On Automotive Corp., Leotek Electronics Corp., Lite-On IT Corp. and LarView Technologies Corp. was transferred to the Parent Company. (The goodwill arising from the Parent Company’s acquisition of LarView Technologies Corp. in the second quarter of 2014 amounted to $368,462 thousand; please refer to Note 29.)

The goodwill arising from the Parent Company’s acquisition of Lite-On Enclosure Inc. in 2004 was $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 September 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013, the carrying value of goodwill were all $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 was $411,932 thousand as of December 31, 2009.

The Group reorganized its structure on June 2014, and the Parent Company acquired the entire equity of Lite-On Mobile Pte. Ltd. from its subsidiary, Lite-On Mobile Oyj (formerly Perlos Oyj). This acquisition resulted in changes to the smallest identifiable group of cash-generating units. Thus, the original goodwill allocated to the cash-generating units of Lite-On Mobile Oyj (formerly Perlos Oyj) were reallocated to the subsidiary Lite-On Mobile Pte. Ltd.

Note 29 describes the goodwill resulting from the acquisition of Power Innovations International Inc. in the second quarter of 2014.

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. As of September 30, 2014, December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2013, 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.

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) 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).

  • 45 -

The capital surplus from share of changes in equities of subsidiaries, share of changes in equities of associates and joint venture and employee share options 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.

The bonus to employees were estimated on the basis of certain percentage of net income during the period. Material differences between these estimated amounts and the amounts proposed by the board of directors on or before the date of annual consolidated financial statements had been authorized for issue are adjusted in the year the bonus and remuneration are recognized. If there is a change in the proposed amounts after the date of annual consolidated financial statements had been authorized for issue, the differences are accounted for as a change in accounting estimate in the following year. If a share bonus is resolved to be distributed to employees, the number of shares is determined by dividing the amount of the share bonus by the fair value of the shares. Fair value of the shares refers to the closing price (after considering the effect of cash and stock dividends) of the shares on the day immediately preceding the shareholders’ meeting.

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 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.

(Concluded)

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 11.26% and 3.36%, 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.

d. 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 2011 tax returns and applied for a reexamination. The Parent Company has made a provision for the income tax assessed.

32. 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.

33. 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.

  • 60 -

  • 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.

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 37).

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.

Sensitivity analysis

The Group was mainly exposed to the U.S. dollar.

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.

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.

  • 65 -

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:

September 30, December 31, December 31, September 30,
2014 2013 2013
Fair value interest rate risk
Financial assets (i) $ 37,037,254 $ 31,433,426 $ 43,270,316
Financial liabilities (ii) 24,760,468 16,570,115 12,123,558
Cash flow interest rate risk
Financial assets (iii) 23,328,502 32,826,589 15,142,592
Financial liabilities (iv) 21,619,352 26,628,513 36,260,401
  • 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 nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 would increase by $3,205 thousand and decrease $39,596 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.

  • 66 -

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 nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 would increase by $43,969 thousand and $93,257 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.

36. SIGNIFICANT CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND UNRECOGNIZED COMMITMENTS

  • a. In May 2010, INPRO II Licensing Sarl (INPRO) filed a lawsuit with the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California and charged the Parent Company with breach of contract. INPRO alleged that the Parent Company incurred a debt on patent rights obtained from Hitachi Limited. INPRO also claimed it had assumed Hitachi’s rights to payments for patent use. But because of the court’s lack of jurisdiction, INPRO dismissed the case. On September 3, 2010, the Parent Company filed a lawsuit with the Intellectual Property Court (“IP Court”) in Taiwan against INPRO, alleging that the Parent Company had no patent obligations. On September 8, 2010, INPRO filed a lawsuit with the Superior Court of California (SCC) in the County of San Francisco. In December 2010, the SCC ruled that the U.S. proceedings in the U.S. should be stopped because the same facts had been filed with the IP Court in Taiwan. In July 2012, INPRO filed a counterclaim with the IP Court in Taiwan and demanded a royalty payment of US$5.4 million plus interest. In June 2013, on the basis of its presentence investigation, the IP Court made a final judgment in favor of INPRO and ruled that the Parent Company should pay royalties of US$5.4 million plus interest. In July 2013, the Parent Company filed an appeal, claiming that the Parent Company had no patent obligations under the former patent licensing contract. In October 2014, INPRO and the Parent Company reached a settlement and dropped all litigation procedures.

The Parent Company assigned lawyers as its representative in these lawsuits. In October 2014, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California rejected the antitrust group lawsuit, but prosecutors appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit against the rejection of the group litigation. The Parent Company will await for the further judgment by the appeal court. Although the outcome of the proceedings had not been determined, the Parent Company accrued a reasonable amount in case of a loss on this lawsuit and will continue to recognize the losses quarterly on the basis of a reasonable estimation of the outcome lawsuit until the settlement of this lawsuit.

  • d. In the second quarter of 2013, the Attorney General of the State of Florida filed antitrust lawsuits against the Parent Company and its subsidiaries - Philips & Lite-On Digital Solutions Corporation and Philips & Lite-On Digital Solutions USA, Inc. - as well as other companies with related businesses with the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California (USDC-NDC). The Parent Company assigned lawyers as its representative in these lawsuits. In the second quarter of 2014, the USDC-NDC allowed the plaintiff to proceed with the lawsuits but dismissed certain parts of these lawsuits.

  • f. In April 2010, petitioner Carlos Fogelman filed a motion for authorization to institute class action antitrust proceedings with the Superior Court of Quebec in the district of Montreal.

All plaintiffs filed the antitrust group lawsuit against the Parent Company and its subsidiaries - Philips & Lite-On Digital Solutions Corporation, Philips & Lite-On Digital Solutions USA, Inc. and other companies with related businesses. The Parent Company assigned lawyers as its representative in these lawsuits. Although the outcome of the proceedings had not been determined, the Parent Company accrued a reasonable amount in case of a loss on this lawsuit and will continue to recognize the losses quarterly on the basis of a reasonable estimation of the lawsuit until the settlement of this lawsuit.

  • g.

The Parent Company has assigned lawyers to deal with the lawsuits. In December 2011, the United States Patent and Trademark office determined that the case has no validity. The plaintiff has filed an appeal, and the legal research for the validity remains to be completed. The legal procedure will be postponed accordingly. Parent Company believes that the case will not have a significant impact on the financial operations.
