Appendix I

2012 Operating Report

The macro environment Economy and Our Operating Policy

After the presidential elections in early 2012, the stock market soared to 8,171 points. Immediately following that, a number of events (including the capital gains tax controversy, rising domestic oil and electricity prices, worries over debt defaults in Europe and the US's double-dip recession) caused the market to fall to 6,857 points. During the second half of 2012, a number of political and economic factors resulted in the market undergoing a correction and closing for the year at 7,700 points, rising only 8.88%. Under the momentum of this correction, the company's businesses continued to operate stably and its risk control mechanisms were taken into account. In control of market trend developments, the company actively generated profits. For 2012, it posted an after-tax profit of NT$1.114 billion and EPS of NT$0.84, ranking first among the 12 major securities firms. Thus amid a correction that saw no significant gains, the company's excellent management team still managed to achieve outstanding results.

Current Status of Business Operations and Results Achieved

On the brokerage front, the impact of the capital gains tax controversy caused a significant decline in overall trading volume. The brokerage division continued operations prudently and achieved an average brokerage market share of 3.67% (8th in the market) for the year. As trading volume in the stock market continued to shrink and in a tough operating environment, the company actively raised its operational efficiency and developed alternative sources of income. It worked to enhance the capability of its teams and information systems, provided quality customer service and a wide range of financial products for investors, improved the performance of its businesses, and generated stable profits for the company.

On the underwriting front, our company conducted 52 underwriting deals in 2012, giving us an overall 3rd place ranking within that industry. In deciding which companies to work with, we use strict screening methods that allow us to focus only on companies in particularly strong sectors and to focus on company with healthy credit ratings. We then work with these good companies to help them list on the TWSE or GTSM. Going forward, our professional team will continue to work tirelessly to land high-quality clients with bright futures.

On the proprietary trading front, the impact of the capital gains tax controversy and rising oil and electricity prices dragged down market indexes in the first quarter. This was followed by a correction and significant tightening of trading volume. With a poor investment climate and tougher operating environment, the company strived to diversify risk and minimize losses in the second half of the year. Relying on the quality of its excellent operating model and risk control, the division strategically mastered trend developments, generated proprietary trading profits, significantly outperformed the market for the year, and continued contributing to profits in an outstanding manner.

On the bond front, Taiwan's bond market has seen lower trading volumes and lower

6

market volatility. Aside from a continued focus on the overall economic situation and conditions in Taiwan's bond market, and having a good grip on market trading and arbitrage opportunities, the bond division also branched out into overseas bond markets to develop new profit sources, and the results have been satisfactory. With risk control at a suitable level and through the proper use of various trading tools, the division will continue to seek profit opportunities arising from volatility in the global financial market.

On the options front, market volatility had been significantly reduced due to the above mentioned capital gains tax controversy, rising domestic oil and electricity prices and debt crises in Europe and the US. However, by practicing various forms of operating flexibility, the division took advantage of opportunities arising from volatility to generate good levels of profits. Going forward, options operations will continue to be based on various forms of operating flexibility and strict risk control in order to achieve profit targets.

On the derivatives front, we were ranked 8th in the issuance market. As for warrant issuance, the capital gains tax controversy resulted in a lower market trading volume, higher hedging costs and options operating losses, hence profits from warrants were less than expected.

Attainment of Operating Forecasts

The company’s 2012 total revenue came to a total of NT$3.668 billion and with operating expenses of NT$2.773 billion. The average daily TAIEX turnover of 2012 was NT$94.5 billion, a marginal decline of 24.58% on YOY basis than 125.3 billion of 2011. The disruptive nature of capital gains tax policies and the shrinking of average daily volumes created a challenging operating environment in 2012. But with the company's businesses developing in a balanced manner and despite the brokerage business experiencing a shrinkage in trading volume that reduced profits, the company was able to make substantial gains overall due to the outstanding performance of its proprietary trading team. Overall after-tax profit was NT$1.114 billion, which is not an easy feat considering the double impact of policy and economic factors that affect the financial environment.

Profitability Analysis

2012 pre-tax profit reached NT$1.22 billion, for an after-tax profit of NT$1.113 billion. Our earnings per share came in at NT$0.84, giving us an overall rank of 1st among the 12 largest domestic securities firms. Our Return on Assets is 3.03% ranked #1 and Return on Equity is 5.24%, Ranked #3 among the 12 major domestic securities firms.

Future Direction of Operations

Uni-President Securities Group has securities, futures, asset management, capital management, insurance agency and personal insurance agency divisions under its wing. All of them enhance the securities group's brand and professional image, and thus leave a lasting impression in the eyes of investors. In the coming year, we will actively promote our wealth management business and work on developing new

7

businesses. Taking advantage of the group's integration and cost saving strengths, we will provide customers with better service standards while the team works actively on innovating, improving and diversifying products and services, strengthening customer development capabilities, solidifying the company's operating base, pursuing stable business growth, and raising the company's market position and profitability.

The impact of capital gains taxation and the economic environment, as well as the rapidly changing financial landscape, have created a challenging environment for securities firms to operate in. Yet even so, the company will continue to uphold its integrity, provide professional and quality services, actively explore new markets and strengthen its risk control mechanism. Over this period when securities firms are facing slim profit margins, we hope to generate substantial profits while continuing to integrate resources within the group, crafting the operating principles of its businesses, and turning ourselves into a complete financial services institution.

With increasing cross-straits interaction between financial authorities on both sides, the company's overall management team will utilize its strengths and successful operation model and take advantage of the government's policies to pursue opportunities in a proactive and stable manner, expand on development opportunities in the Greater China market, continue seeking stable profits, live up to its shareholders' expectations, and create company and shareholder value.

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 conducted our audits in accordance with the "Rules Governing the Examination of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants" and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China. Those standards and rules 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 provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the non-consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of President Securities Corporation as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with the "Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Securities Firms", "Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Futures Commission Merchants", and generally accepted accounting principles in the Republic of China.

Report of Independent Accountants Translated from Chinese

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of President Securities Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of President Securities Corporation and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income, of changes in shareholders' equity and of cash flows for the years then ended. 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 conducted our audits in accordance with the "Rules Governing the Examination of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants" and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China. Those standards and rules 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 President Securities Corporation and its subsidiaries of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with the "Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Securities Firms", "Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Futures Commission Merchants", and generally accepted accounting principles in the Republic of China.

PricewaterhouseCoopers

March 26 2013


The accompanying consolidated financial statements are not intended to present the financial position and results of operations and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in countries and jurisdictions other than the Republic of China. The standards, procedures and practices in the Republic of China governing the audit of such financial statements may differ from those generally accepted in countries and jurisdictions other than the Republic of China. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements and report of independent accountants are not intended for use by those who are not informed about the accounting principles or auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, and their applications in practice.
