Independent Auditors’ Report

The Board of Directors Primax Electronics Ltd.:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Primax Electronics Ltd. as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related statements of comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of certain investees accounted for under the equity method. Those financial statements were audited by other auditors, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to that investment, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors. The Company’s investment in these companies amounted to $1,216,301 and $2,702,548 thousand, constituting 4% and 12% of the total assets, as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The related share of profit of associates accounted for using the equity method amounted to $166,222 and $149,981 thousand, constituting 9% of the net profit before tax, for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the accompanying financial statements referred to in the first paragraph present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Primax Electronics Ltd. as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

March 24, 2016

The accompanying financial statements are intended only to present the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers. The standards, procedures and practices to audit such financial statements are those generally accepted and applied in the Republic of China.

The auditors’ report and the accompanying financial statements are the English translation of the Chinese version prepared and used in the Republic of China. If there is any conflict between, or any difference in the interpretation of, the English and Chinese language auditors’ report and financial statements, the Chinese version shall prevail.

Independent Auditors’ Report

The Board of Directors Primax Electronics Ltd.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Primax Electronics Ltd. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of certain subsidiaries. Those financial statements were audited by other auditors, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to those subsidiaries, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, the assets of these subsidiaries amounted to NT$7,046,529 and NT$3,256,659 thousand, respectively, constituting 17% and 10%, respectively, of the consolidated total assets. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, the operating revenue of these subsidiaries amounted to NT$8,734,357 and NT$6,277,916 thousand, respectively, constituting 13% and 12%, respectively, of the consolidated operating revenue.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Those 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 and the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
