REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS

PWCR16000449

Attachment 3

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of MiTAC Holdings Corporation

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MiTAC Holdings Corporation and its subsidiaries (the “MiTAC Group”) as at December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, of changes in equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, and notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the audit reports of other independent accountants, as described in the Other matters section of our report, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the MiTAC Group as at December 31, 2016 and 2015, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparations of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission.

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the “Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants” and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China (ROC GAAS). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the MiTAC Group in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountants in the Republic of China (the “Code”), and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the Code. Based on our audits and the audit report of the other independent accountants, we believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key audit matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole and, in forming our opinion thereon, we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Impairment valuation of non-financial assets

Description

As mentioned in Note 14, the MiTAC Group’s mobile communications business group had a deficit balance, therefore, the MiTAC Group adopted impairment valuation to property, plant, equipment, intangible assets and other assets. For description of accounting policy on non-financial assets, please refer to Note 4(17), and for accounting estimates and assumption uncertainty in relation to impairment valuation of property, plant, equipment and intangible assets, please refer to Note 5(2). The MiTAC Group measured recoverable amount of assets through discounting future estimated cash flow, and was the basis of evaluating assets impairment. As a result of assumptions and discounted rate that were used to forecast future cash flow were significant when evaluated the value-in-uses of property, plant, equipment, intangible assets and other assets, we identified the impairment valuation of non-financial assets a key audit matter.

12

How our audit addressed the matter

We conducted audit procedures including discussing the procedures of preparation future estimated cash flow with management, evaluated key assumptions that management used to forecast future cash flow including comparing with historical data in order to evaluate the reasonableness of changing in estimated revenue, gross profit and expense, reviewed each of parameters which were used in discounted rate consisting of the reasonableness of risk-free return rate, industrial risk coefficients and market return rate, and verified the accuracy of calculating in valuation model.

Valuation of inventory

Description

The MiTAC Group’s inventories were mainly engaged in manufacturing and selling computer and its peripherals and communications products. Since the industry involved rapidly changing technology and were affected by market demand, there was higher risk of incurring inventory valuation losses or having obsolete inventory, the MiTAC Group’s inventories were measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. For description of accounting policy on inventory valuation, please refer to Note 4(12), and for accounting estimates and assumption uncertainty in relation to inventory valuation, please refer to Note 5(2). Considering the MiTAC Group’s inventories were significant, items were voluminous and the valuation associated with subjective judgment, we identified valuation of inventory a key audit matter.

How our audit addressed the matter

We performed audit procedures including discussing with management and evaluating the policy of inventory valuation, tested inventory aging report, checked the logic in inventory aging calculation and confirmed that the classification of obsolete or slow-moving inventories was properly, and tested the materials which used to determine the net realized of obsolete or slow-moving inventories in order to value the reasonableness of allowance for inventory valuation losses.

Other matter- audits of the other independent accountants

We did not audit the financial statements which prepared under different framework of financial report of investments recognized partially under the equity method that are included in the consolidated financial statements. The company transferred financial statements in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparations of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission. Share of profit (loss) of associates and joint ventures accounted for using equity method of $1,055,881 thousand and $ 929,171 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Investments accounted for using equity method of $ 8,702,153 thousand and $ 8,263,353 thousand as at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Those financial statements before adjustments were audited by other independent accountants whose report thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinion expressed herein is based solely on the audit reports of the other independent accountants.

Other matter – Parent company only financial reports

We have audited and expressed an unmodified opinion on the parent company only financial statements of MiTAC Holdings Corporation as at and for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

13

Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the consolidated financial statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Preparations of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers” and the International Financial Reporting Standards, International Accounting Standards, IFRIC Interpretations, and SIC Interpretations as endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Commission, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the MiTAC Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the MiTAC Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance, including audit committee (Including supervisors), are responsible for overseeing the MiTAC Group’s financial reporting process.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ROC GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with ROC GAAS, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the MiTAC Group’s internal control.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the MiTAC Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the MiTAC Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

  5. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  6. Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or

14

business activities within the MiTAC Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Wen, Fang-Yu Cheng, Ya-Huei
