The Company's gross profit, operating loss, non-operating income and expenses and net income are explained for the year of 2018 as follows:
- I. Gross Profit, Operating (Loss):
The semiconductor business center benefited from the getting stable supply and demand of raw material from upstream, so the price of the raw material continued to decline which drives the demand from the terminal and leads to an increase on sales volume of package for the memory products. In addition, because the EMS business center's existing customers increased their order quantities and its
10
==> picture [64 x 40] intentionally omitted <==
new customers' products continually entered into mass production, its revenue increased accordingly. The entire revenue of the company increased by 9.38%.
For operating cost, because sales quantities increased and the new leave policy launched, the labor cost increased as well. However, the operating costs slightly increased by 6.94% in 2018 compared with 2017 due to the proper control of the manufacturing expenses. Therefore, the gross profit in 2018 was ahead of 2017 by 192.97%.
- II. Non-operating Income and (Expenses):
Compared with the same period of last year, it increased 260.31% mainly due to the impairment of the property, plant and equipment from the important subsidiary in the same period of last year. It did not occur in this period, so the share of profit or loss of associate under the equity method increased by 50.76%.
III. In the future, the business strategy will focus on the solid product portfolios as well as broaden sources of revenue and reduce expenditure in order to create profits and improve the structure.

Impact of External Competitive Environment, Regulatory Environment and Overall Business Environment
According to a recent study from Topology Research, pushing forward by the package and probe markets in the fields of communications, automotive electronics and memory, the revenue from the global IC package and probe market was USD 53.92 billion in 2018 with a slight growth of 1.4% compared with 2017. Topology Research also pointed out that the output value of the package and probe in 2019 has the situation that the sale volume of mobile phone declines and the price of the memory continues to bottom out. However, pushing forward by automotive electronics, AI and IoT, the Topology Research estimated that the output value of the package will reach USD 54.46 billion in 2019 with a growth of 1.0%.
In response to the tendency of electronic products development, the Company will focus on niche products to avoid the price competition to affect the profit. Along with the popularity of smart phone devices and the increasing demand of AI and big data, the various applications of flash memory, such as embedded memory modules (eMMC, eMMC) and Flash BGA, will be the mainstream products of flash memory applications in the future. The Company will cooperate with the world's major memory industry chain and channel distributors to constantly develop the manufacturing services for various flash memory applications with the advantages of the existing manufacturing platform.
In terms of external risks, even though the EMS group has benefited from the US-China trade war this year, how long the benefits of the transfer of orders will last is still a variable. In the market, there are still lots of other large external manufacturers who cast their covetous eyes on. We need close observation and maintain close relationships with the customers in order to take preventive actions in a timely manner. However, the Company's EMS group has established a deep cooperation foundation and partnership with customers in the market. By providing high quality and comprehensive services, it has reached a level which general competitors will have difficulty to achieve.
In the past, the Company was greatly affected by the lack of materials in the environment, the accommodation period of generation exchanges and the amendments of the labor regulations. As a result, we are unable to continue to make profit. However, under these difficulties, the Company is still uncompromisingly moving towards the goal of making profits and is doing its utmost to strive for profitable results this year.

Implementation of Strengthening Operation Program
I. Summary of Strengthening Operation Program
-
(I) Research/Development and Business Marketing
-
In the semiconductor business, the current supply and demand of the materials from the upstream for the flash memory has been stabilized. In addition to continuing to focus on the various new applications of flash memory and the demand of cloud servers, we will also work harder on the applications of the IoT, LPDDR and automotive electronics, cooperate with customers to constantly progress the development in order to expand the scope of business and provide the customers with timely and completeness of the services and technical support to build up the long-term and stable relationships with customers.
-
In EMS, it has deployed with the customers with special industrial demands for many years; its quality requirements exceed IPC-610 class 3. The customers have recognized the current process and its quality and have started to place the mass production orders with us. The introduction of this process technology has laid the foundation to enter into the industries of the vehicle, aerospace and military in the future. It will enhance the overall profitability for EMS.
-
(II) Production / Manufacture
-
Proceeding with two main directions: we not only enhance the production efficiency and control the production cost to strengthen the advantages of cost competitiveness, but also speed up to introduce the Industry 4.0. In addition, we will constantly conduct the strictly quality management to provide the best quality products in the industry.
-

-
(I) The semiconductor group benefited from getting the stable supply and demand of raw materials from upstream, so the price of the NAND Flash continued to decline which drives the demand from the terminal and leads to an increase on sales volume of the package for the memory products. In addition, because the EMS group's existing customers increased their order quantities and its new customers' products continuously entered into mass production, its revenue increased accordingly. The entire revenue of the company increased by 9.38%.
-
(II) For operating cost, because sales quantities increased and the new leave policy launched, the labor cost increased as well. However, the operating costs slightly increased by 6.94% in 2018 compared with 2017 due to the proper control of the manufacturing expenses. Therefore, the gross profit in 2018 was ahead of 2017 by 192.97%.
-
(III) The Company's future business strategy will focus on a niche product portfolio, broaden sources of revenue and reduce expenditure in order to create profits and improve structure as well as protect the shareholders' rights and interests.
