I. Business Report

Over the past year, the overall economic environment came under stress from European and American debt and Korean and Japanese monetary devaluation. Despite being able to maintain a level of operation performance in the quartz industry, customers will clearly possess more price negotiation power as competition intensifies and information becomes more transparent. As laws and regulations become more comprehensive, customer enforce stricter standards, profit erodes and the business environment become more uncertain, it is important to honestly examine our business to find new profit models and prepare sufficient resources to break through the status quo and achieve steady growth and profit for another 30 years. In the future, we must become accustomed to study and maintain sufficient flexibility and vitality to cope with the stresses brought by change. Also, niche profits must be better understood in this age of reduced profits. In fact, these are the innovation and breakthroughs from the operation process. The limitations to future habitual domains must be gradually removed no matter how difficult the task in order to truly build a sustainable business. We have the determination to challenge the future, face competition and strive forward to change ourselves. Our 2012 business results and future plans are provided below for our shareholders.

With regard to our company’s 2012 operation performance, consolidated sales reached NT$10.93 billion which represented an increase of 10.4% over the NT$9.90 billion in consolidated sales for the previous year and reached 103.9% of our forecast goal. Net income after tax was NT$1.15 billion which was 9.4% less than the previous year and met 101.7% of our forecast goal. This decline is mainly attributable to a decline in market competitive prices. Base earnings per share were NT$3.79 which represented a decline of 8.9% when compared to the EPS of 3.48 posted the previous year. Looking over this year, TXC hopes that sales, growth and profits will be above industry levels with respect to the performance index set by the company and provided there is a significant economic recovery. The 2012 Operations Results and 2013 Business Plan Overview are provided below:

Following the establishment of the new energy division, in addition to original sapphire growing, pattern sapphire substrate process production capacity has been expanded in order to achieve a breakthrough in our LED business.

  • 2 、 Forecast Quantity of Sales and Basis : The global economy has finally started to rebound as the economic stimulus from U.S. quantitative easing continues in 2012, the European stability mechanism brings the European

6

debt problems under control and Japan joins the loose monetary policy club at the end of the year. In the midst of this uncertain global political and economic climate, TXC was able to post impressive growth of 10.4% and reached a market share of 10.8%. As a result, the Company continues to adopt a cautiously optimistic stance in our 2013 sales forecasts. In addition to cooperating further with major international firms, TXC plans to actively develop new customers and products in response to future industry development requirements. Furthermore, future development will focus on high-end products to raise profit margins and profitability. Additional production capacity expansion is planned for 2013. Entry in the automotive industry as well as ongoing customer certification and approval of high frequency precision products are expected to help boost company sales and profits. Also, the products developed by our new energy division will gradually bring in more business after a year of technical research and customer development.

As for the global economy in 2013, the U.S. economic data has been showing improvement so the quantitative easing stimulus policy will be gradually withdrawn and the economy will need to be driven by fundamentals. Deficit reduction efforts in Europe are resulting in austerity measures. In addition, the expanded quantitative easing stimulus by Japan has spurred competitive devaluation among Asian currencies to stimulate exports. The future political and economic development direction was set during the meeting of the National People's Congress in China and the Chinese economy should recover under the 8 percent growth target. In general, TXC focus on miniaturized, high frequency and low consumption precision fields in product development is already seeing results. Also, our new energy division has started to generate sales and profits. As the global economy strengthens, total sales quantities in 2013 are forecast to exceed 2.5 billion and TMX market share is expected to increase to 11 – 12% which will make the company one of the top two manufacturers in the quartz industry.

Faced with business environment challenges and industry competition, TXC not only needs to be accustomed to respond quickly, but also has to strive to make breakthroughs, innovate, accept challenges and erode habitual domains that obstruct progress as profits come under pressure. By getting back to basics as stated last year “face improvement of human resource quality, allocate and integrate resources, reorganize, simplify and eliminate procedures once again”, and honestly engage in self-reflection in order to achieve company business sustainability.

Reflecting on the outcome of receiving the Mittelstand Award, self-examination through people-oriented corporate culture, practical dream building operation strategy, profit sharing / collaborative spirit, customer oriented service attitude and information transparency governance model and continue to strive for success by following the example of Tadashi Yanai “one-day success can be discarded”.

Looking back over the past three decades since the establishment of TXC, the challenges that we have faced and the appreciation deep in our hearts allows us to stay dedicated to our upward striving spirit. With regard to the frequent and hard-to-predict changes in the marketplace, we need to be even more diligent, focused and steadfast in achieving our set targets with a spirit of dedication, speed and efficiency and with modesty and a positive attitude. Success can only be attained by staying focused on our vision. There is no guarantee of success. As we look towards the future, quality improvement gives us the capability to enter the automotive market and security related products. As for technical progress, we must establish a position capable of attack and defense together with intellectual property. With respect to cultivation of human resources, we need to develop the professional and management skills of more people. In this way, we can honestly face ourselves, challenge the future and usher in another three decades of competitiveness.

2 、 The Industry

  • (1). Current industry status and development

The current domestic quartz industries are mainly for producing components such as crystals, crystal oscillators, and crystal filters. The basic manufacturing process of making crystals starts from cutting the quartz, and then after grinding and polish to the desired sizes; followed by depositing thin metal film electrodes on its surface under the vaccum, and subsequently, it is connected with condut wires; afterward it is packaged. In addition, by assembling and packaging the crystal components with IC oscillators then it will result the crystal oscillators. Assembling and packaging the crystal components and capacitors, wires, and resistors then it will be the crystal filters.

When you comparing the three crystal technologies: frequency, precision, and size dimension you can see that the European and US manufacturers are strong in the frequencies development. It was because of their development of the wireless technology that it gives them an advantage in the design and development; but production efficiency is lower. Japan manufacturers are the technology leaders and they are excellent in the precision and the scale size of the products. They have the advantages of products improvement, and can further to make it in mass production and automatic production. To the Taiwanese manufacturers, most of them are buying the material & know-how, machinery equipments, or purchasing the manufacturing process of which usually lead to a faster time in marketing the product. But recently, the manufacturers have improved their manufacturing process, and the manufacturing equipments; also the learning of the manufacturing process further improves it. Presently, the mainland manufacturers mainly produce low-end products wherein 80% of them are for export and their products still have not effectively satisfied the demand of their massive domestic market. In recent years Chinese manufacturers are aggressively to promote their technology abilities and to advance to the middle and high end. Below table is a comparison of advantages/disadvantages of competitions from the major producers.

Key European, USA Japanese Taiwanese China
technology manufactures manufactures manufactures manufactures
Frequency high High High-middle Middle-low
Precision high Veryhigh High-middle Middle-low

(4). Competitions

For quite some time Taiwan electronics industry usually take the OEM fashion to function as a supplier to world’s largest electronics and information technology companies. Applying Taiwan’s capital, technical skills, labor or other market unique advantages that takes the

33

、 advantages of ”global labor division” ”regional labor division” to achieve the vertical integration purpose 。 With the advance of Taiwanese electronics manufacturer’s technical level, their business operatios have transformed from the parts assembled in the early days, to the OEM, and even promoted to the ODM scale. In order to gain a more added value, many Taiwan electronics companies, reposition their value chain locations, and have gradually extended themselves from manufacturing to product R&D, design and even further to sales and marketing, post-sale and brand management; and amid the global work divisions, have stance in a unique place . The major global companies with their procurement arranging, are team with Taiwan electronics companies in value creations; and themselves would be able to intend more on their brand and sales management. This ends up in a win-win situation for both parties.

With Taiwanese electronics industry forms in the nature cluster groups, and it thus has a demand of 30% of the global crystal component product. But Taiwanese manufactures can only produce no more than the 20% of total global production, and this China domestic market would provide growing space for Taiwanese companies. But the crystal component industries are in the border of oligopoly competition since the ten largest manufacturers in the world have a total combination of production of 75% and more. This illustrates the great differences of the manufacturers in this industry, and this can be said it is a oligopoly competition market. But because the wide applications of the products, each manufacturer emphasizes its own product and the market. The lower end, and mature market has a stronger tendency in cutting price to competition. This results a very strong competition market.

In the global crystal component industry, Japan is still the largest producer and it has about 60% of the worldwide productions. Our domestic competitors are SiWard Crystal Corporation, EChina Technology, Harmony Electronics, Taitien Electronics, and Tai-Saw Technology and Hosonic Electronics. Each corporation differentiates by specializing in different products and market. Our company has the highest market share which demonstrates our leading role in the crystal component industry.

(2). Manufacturing Process

Steps for crystal components manufacturing are: first we need to manufacture the quartz crysal needed for the electrical material. It involves the cutting, polish, cleaning of the wafer form. Then with the mechanical arms to place the wafer on the base and fixed with the silver based glue. Then package it under vaccum. For oscillators it is necessary to add one more unit of oscillating circuit IC with golden line conduction via amplified output of crystal chip oscillation. It requires more IC placement and wire bonding process compared to the quartz crystal.

DData on our environmental protection expense

  1. In recent years and as of the date of annual report publishing, the Company fixed pollution source installation was not operated within the scope of the permit in 2012 which resulted in non-conformance with related air pollution control laws. Considering that the non-conformity was relatively slight, the Taoyuan County government levied the minimum fine. In addition, a power trip on the wastewater pre-treatment facility collection system prevented the water pump from being activated and the wastewater in the collection and storage area overflowed in the storm drain and then into the industrial park storm sewer system. Though the water quality test results conformed to wastewater discharge standards, it was still deemed a violation of Article 18 of the Water Pollution Control Act and Article 21 of the Water Pollution Control Measures and Test Reporting Management Regulations. Since it was short-term emergency, the Taoyuan County government decided to levy the minimum fine. The total fine amount for the above two violations was NT$110,000. Response measures and expenditures: Improvement costs including submersible pump, catch basin project, new wastewater basin project. Total amount was NT$2,190,000.

  2. The environmental protection regulatory requires the permit for pollution control equipments, or the permission to discharge, or a fee charged for the pollution prevention, or designated personnel for the environment protection affairs. To illustrate the filing, pay fee or implementation as follows:

Item Description

───────────── ────────────────────────────

Permit for air pollution equipment has applied to Taoyun county, environ protection agency Paid fee for pollution prevention monthly pollution treatment fee is about NT$346,973 Designated environment protection According to law, our company doesn’t need to personnel designate personnel for environment protection affair

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Rules Governing the Audit of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Those rules and 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.

We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of TXC 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 Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, requirements of the Business Accounting Law and Guidelines Governing Business Accounting relevant to financial accounting standards, and accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of China.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012 AND 2011 (In Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Stated Otherwise)

TXC CORPORATION

1. ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS

TXC Corporation (the Corporation) was incorporated on December 28, 1983 under the Company Law and other related regulations of the Republic of China (ROC).

The Corporation specializes in five categories of products such as high quality Quartz Unite Crystal, Automotive Crystal, Crystal Oscillator (CXO) Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) Filter, and Timing Module (TM), and provides complete solution in frequency devices and modules, and design service to fully satisfy various needs of the customers.

On August 26, 2002, the Corporation’s shares began to be traded on the Taiwan Stock Exchange.

As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Corporation had 1,028 and 1,025 employees, respectively.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

For readers’ convenience, the accompanying financial statements have been translated into English from the original Chinese version prepared and used in the ROC. If inconsistencies arise between the English version and the Chinese version or if differences arise in the interpretations between the two versions, the Chinese version of the financial statements shall prevail.

The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, Business Accounting Law, Guidelines Governing Business Accounting, and accounting principles generally accepted in the ROC.

Foreign Currencies

Non-derivative foreign-currency transactions are recorded in New Taiwan dollars at the rates of exchange in effect when the transactions occur. Exchange differences arising from settlement of foreign-currency assets and liabilities are recognized in profit or loss.

At the balance sheet date, foreign-currency monetary assets and liabilities are revalued using prevailing exchange rates and the exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss.

If the functional currency of an equity-method investee is a foreign currency, translation adjustments will result from the translation of the investee’s financial statements into the reporting currency of the Corporation. Such adjustments are accumulated and reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.

Accounting Estimates

Under above guidelines, law and principles, certain estimates and assumptions have been used for the allowance for doubtful accounts, allowance for loss on inventories, depreciation of property, plant and equipment, income tax, pension cost, bonuses to employees, directors and supervisors, etc. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

  • 68 -

Current/Noncurrent Assets and Liabilities

Current assets include cash and cash equivalents, and those assets held primarily for trading purposes or to be realized, sold or consumed within one year from the balance sheet date. All other assets such as property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are classified as noncurrent. Current liabilities are obligations incurred for trading purposes or to be settled within one year from the balance sheet date. All other liabilities are classified as noncurrent.

Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents, consisting of commercial papers, bank acceptances and repurchase agreements collateralized by bonds, are highly liquid financial instruments with maturities of three months or less when acquired and with carrying amounts that approximate their fair values.

Financial Assets and Liabilities at Fair Value through Profit or Loss

Financial instruments classified as financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) include financial assets or financial liabilities held for trading and those designated as at FVTPL on initial recognition. The Corporation recognizes a financial asset or a financial liability on its balance sheet when the Corporation becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. A financial asset is derecognized when the Corporation has lost control of its contractual rights over the financial asset. A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation specified in the relevant contract is discharged, cancelled or expired.

Financial instruments at FVTPL are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognized immediately in profit or loss. At each balance sheet date subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are remeasured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized directly in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. On derecognition of a financial asset or a financial liability, the difference between its carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable or consideration paid and payable is recognized in profit or loss. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis.

A derivative that does not meet the criteria for hedge accounting is classified as a financial asset or a financial liability held for trading. If the fair value of the derivative is positive, the derivative is recognized as a financial asset; otherwise, the derivative is recognized as a financial liability.

Fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities at the balance sheet date are determined as follows: Bonds - at prices quoted by the Taiwan GreTai Securities Market, and financial assets and financial liabilities without quoted prices in an active market - at values determined using valuation techniques.

Available-for-sale Financial Assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition. At each balance sheet date subsequent to initial recognition, available-for-sale financial assets are remeasured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in equity until the financial assets are disposed of, at which time, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in equity is included in profit or loss for the period. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis.

The recognition, derecognition and the fair value bases of available-for-sale financial assets are the same with those of financial assets at FVTPL.

  • 69 -

An impairment loss is recognized when there is objective evidence that the financial asset is impaired. Any subsequent decrease in impairment loss for an equity instrument classified as available-for-sale is recognized directly in equity. If the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available-for-sale subsequently increases as a result of an event which occurred after the impairment loss was recognized, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed to profit.

Fair value of financial assets at the balance sheet date is determined as follows: Open-end mutual funds - at net asset values.

Financial Assets Carried at Cost

Investments in equity instruments with no quoted prices in an active market and with fair values that cannot be reliably measured, such as non-publicly traded stocks and stocks traded in the Emerging Stock Market, are measured at their original cost. The accounting treatment for dividends on financial assets carried at cost is the same with that for dividends on available-for-sale financial assets. An impairment loss is recognized when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired. A reversal of this impairment loss is disallowed.

Impairment of Accounts Receivable

An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided on the basis of a review of the collectibility of accounts receivable. The Corporation assesses the probability of collections of accounts receivable by examining the aging analysis of the outstanding receivables and assessing the value of the collateral provided by customers.

As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, on January 1, 2011, the Corporation adopted the third-time revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 34, “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.” One of the main revisions is that impairment of receivables originated by the Corporation should be covered by SFAS No. 34. Accounts receivable are assessed for impairment at the end of each reporting period and considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the accounts receivable, the estimated future cash flows of the asset have been affected. Objective evidence of impairment could include:

  • Significant financial difficulty of the debtor;

  • Accounts receivable becoming overdue; or

  • It is becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organization.

Accounts receivable that are assessed as not impaired individually are further assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of accounts receivable could include the Corporation’s past experience in the collection of payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on receivables.

The amount of the impairment loss recognized is the difference between the asset carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, after taking into account the related collateral and guarantees, discounted at the receivable’s original effective interest rate.

The carrying amount of the accounts receivable is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When accounts receivable are considered uncollectible, they are written off against the allowance account. Recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized as bad debt in profit or loss.

  • 70 -

Impairment of Assets

If the recoverable amount of an asset (mainly property, plant and equipment, idle assets, leased assets and investments accounted for by the equity method) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is charged to earnings unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is first treated as a deduction to the unrealized revaluation increment and any remaining loss is charged earnings.

If an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased accordingly, but the increased carrying amount may not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized on the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in earnings, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is first recognized as gains to the extent that an impairment loss on the same revalued asset was previously charged to earnings.

Inventories

Inventories consist of raw materials, supplies and spare parts, work-in-process, finished goods and merchandise and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are made item by item, except where it may be appropriate to group similar or related items. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are recorded at weighted-average cost on the balance sheet date.

Investments Accounted for by the Equity Method

Investments in which the Corporation holds 20 percent or more of the investees’ voting shares or exercises significant influence over the investees’ operating and financial policy decisions are accounted for by the equity method.

Profits from downstream transactions with an equity-method investee are eliminated in proportion to the Corporation’s percentage of ownership in the investee; however, if the Corporation has control over the investee, all the profits are eliminated. Profits from upstream transactions with an equity-method investee are eliminated in proportion to the Corporation’s percentage of ownership in the investee.

Property, Plant and Equipment, Assets Leased to Others and Idle Assets

Property, plant and equipment and assets leased to others are stated at cost plus revaluation increment less accumulated depreciation. Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of property, plant and equipment are capitalized as part of the cost of those assets. Major additions and improvements to property, plant and equipment are capitalized, while costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed currently.

Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives as follows: buildings - 4 to 51 years; machinery and equipment - 4 to 15 years; transportation equipment - 3 to 6 years; office equipment - 2 to 6 years; assets leased to others - 4 to 61 years.

Property, plant and equipment and assets leased to others still in use beyond their original estimated useful lives are further depreciated over their new estimated useful lives. Depreciation of revaluated assets is provided on a straight-line basis over their remaining estimated useful lives determined at the time of revaluation.

The related cost (including revaluation increment), accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses and any unrealized revaluation increment of an item of property, plant and equipment are derecognized from the balance sheet upon its disposal. Any gain or loss on disposal of the asset is included in nonoperating gains or losses in the period of disposal.

  • 71 -

Convertible Bonds

For convertible bonds issued on or after January 1, 2006, the Corporation first determines the carrying amount of the liability component by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated equity component, then determines the carrying amount of the equity component, representing the equity conversion option, by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the fair value of the convertible bonds as a whole. The liability component (excluding the embedded derivatives) is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, while the embedded non-equity derivatives are measured at fair value. Upon conversion, the Corporation uses the aggregate carrying amount of the liability and equity components of the bonds at the time of conversion as a basis to record the common shares issued.

Pension Cost

Pension cost under a defined benefit plan is determined by actuarial valuations. Contributions made under a defined contribution plan are recognized as pension cost during the period in which employees render services.

Curtailment or settlement gains or losses of the defined benefit plan are recognized as part of the net periodic pension cost for the period.

Income Tax

The Corporation applies the intra-period and inter-period allocation methods to its income tax, whereby (1) a portion of income tax expense is allocated to the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles; and (2) deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax effects of temporary differences, unused loss carryforward and unused tax credits. Valuation allowance is provided to the extent, if any, that it is more likely than not that deferred income tax assets will not be realized. A deferred tax asset or liability is classified as current or noncurrent in accordance with the classification of its related asset or liability. However, if a deferred income tax asset or liability does not relate to an asset or liability in the financial statements, then it is classified as either current or noncurrent based on the expected length of time before it is realized or settled.

If the Corporation can control the timing of the reversal of a temporary difference between the book value and the tax basis of a long-term equity investment in a foreign subsidiary or joint venture and if the temporary difference is not expected to reverse in the foreseeable future and will, in effect, exist indefinitely, then a deferred tax liability or asset is not recognized.

Tax credits for purchases of machinery, equipment and technology, research and development expenditures, and personnel training expenditures are recognized using the flow-through method.

Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current period’s tax provision.

According to the Income Tax Law, an additional tax at 10% of unappropriated earnings is provided for as income tax in the year the shareholders approve to retain the earnings.

Stock-based Compensation

Employee stock options granted between January 1, 2004 and December 31, 2007 were accounted for under the interpretations issued by the Accounting Research and Development Foundation (“ARDF”). The Corporation adopted the intrinsic value method, under which compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

  • 72 -

Treasury Stock

Treasury stock is stated at cost and shown as a deduction in shareholders’ equity.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from sales of goods is recognized when the Corporation has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods, primarily upon shipment, because the earnings process has been completed and the economic benefits associated with the transaction have been realized or are realizable. The Corporation does not recognize sales revenue on materials delivered to subcontractors because this delivery does not involve a transfer of risks and rewards of materials ownership.

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts agreed between the Corporation and the customers for goods sold in the normal course of business, net of sales discounts and volume rebates. For trade receivables due within one year from the balance sheet date, as the nominal value of the consideration to be received approximates its fair value and transactions are frequent, fair value of the consideration is not determined by discounting all future receipts using an imputed rate of interest.

Reclassifications

Certain accounts in the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012.

3. EFFECTS OF CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

Financial Instruments

On January 1, 2011, the Corporation adopted the newly revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 34, “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.” The main revisions include (1) finance lease receivables are now covered by SFAS No. 34; (2) the scope of the applicability of SFAS No. 34 to insurance contracts is amended; (3) loans and receivables originated by the Corporation are now covered by SFAS No. 34; (4) additional guidelines on impairment testing of financial assets carried at amortized cost when a debtor has financial difficulties and the terms of obligations have been modified; and (5) accounting treatment by a debtor for modifications in the terms of obligations. The adoption did not have effect on the net income for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Capital Stock

The Corporation’s authorized capital was $5,000,000 thousand and $4,000,000 thousand at December 31, 2012 and 2011 ($10.00 par value per share). As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Corporation’s issued capital stock was $3,022,423 thousand divided into 302,242 thousand shares, at NT$10.00 par value each. Exercised stock options in the amount of $24,460 thousand and convertible bonds in the amount of $50,687 thousand have not been registered; therefore they are classified into advance receipts for common stock.

Employee Stock Options

In December 2007, 8,000 options were granted to qualified employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. Each option entitles the holder to subscribe for one thousand common shares of the Corporation when exercisable. The options granted are valid for 5 years and exercisable at certain percentages after the second anniversary year from the grant date. The options were granted at an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Corporation’s common shares listed on the TSE on the grant date. For any subsequent changes in the Corporation’s paid-in capital, the exercise price is adjusted accordingly.

The capital surplus from shares issued in excess of par (including additional paid-in capital from issuance of common shares, conversion of bonds and treasury stock transactions) and donations may be used to offset a deficit; in addition, when the Corporation has no deficit, such capital surplus may be distributed as cash dividends or transferred to capital (limited to a certain percentage of the Corporation’s paid-in capital and once a year).

The capital surplus from long-term investments, employee stock options and conversion options may not be used for any purpose.

Appropriation of Earnings and Dividend Policy

Under the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation, the Corporation should appropriate 10% of its net income less any prior years’ deficit as legal reserve. The remaining amount may be fully retained or partially retained and partially distributed for dividends, upon the stockholders’ approval, according to the following percentages.

  • a. Employee bonus - not less than 3%

  • b. Directors and supervisors’ remuneration - not more than 2%

  • c. Stock bonuses to employees include subsidiaries’ employees who meet certain criteria set by the stockholders’ meetings.

  • 83 -

Dividends are recommended by the board of directors in accordance with the Corporation’s dividend policy. Under this policy, industry trend and growth should be evaluated, investment opportunities should be fully understood, and proper capital adequacy ratios should be considered in determining the dividend to be distributed. In addition, cash dividends should not be less than 20% of the total dividends to be appropriated.

For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the bonus to employees was $124,079 thousand and $113,317 thousand, respectively, and the remuneration to directors and supervisors was $20,680 thousand and $18,886 thousand, respectively. The bonus to employees and remuneration to directors and supervisors represented 12% and 2%, respectively, of net income (net of the bonus and remuneration). Material differences between such estimated amounts and the amounts proposed by the Board of Directors in the following year are adjusted for in the current year. If the actual amounts subsequently resolved by the stockholders differ from the proposed amounts, the differences are recorded in the year of stockholders’ resolution as a change in accounting estimate. 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 closing price (after considering the effect of cash and stock dividends) of the shares of the day immediately preceding the stockholders’ meeting.

Based on a directive issued by the Securities and Futures Bureau, an amount equal to the net debit balance of certain stockholders’ equity accounts (including unrealized revaluation increment, unrealized gain or loss on financial instruments, net loss not recognized as pension cost, cumulative transaction adjustments) shall be transferred from unappropriated earnings to a special reserve. Any special reserve appropriated may be reversed to the extent of the decrease in the net debit balance.

Except for non-ROC resident stockholders, all stockholders receiving the dividends are allowed a tax credit equal to their proportionate share in the income tax paid by the Corporation.

The appropriations of earnings for 2011 and 2010 had been approved in the stockholders’ meetings on June 13, 2012 and June 10, 2011, respectively. The appropriations and dividends per share were as follows:

The ARDF issued Interpretation 2007-052 that requires companies to recognize bonuses paid to employees, directors and supervisors as compensation expenses beginning January 1, 2008. These bonuses were previously recorded as appropriations from earnings. If the Corporation may settle the bonus to employees by cash or shares, the Corporation should presume that the entire amount of the bonus will be settled in shares and the resulting potential shares should be included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the calculation of diluted EPS, if the shares have a dilutive effect. The number of shares is estimated by dividing the entire amount of the bonus by the closing price of the shares at the balance sheet date. Such dilutive effect of the potential shares should be included in the calculation of diluted EPS until the stockholders resolve the number of shares to be distributed to employees at their meeting in the following year.

Methods and assumptions used in estimation of fair values of financial instruments were as follows:

  • a. The above financial instruments do not include cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts receivable, notes and accounts payable and short-term loans. Because of the short maturities of these instruments, the carrying values represent a reasonable basis to estimate fair values.

  • b. Fair values of financial instruments designated as at FVTPL, available-for-sale and derivatives are based on their quoted prices in an active market. For those instruments with no quoted market prices, their fair values are determined using valuation techniques incorporating estimates and assumptions consistent with those generally used by other market participants to price financial instruments.

  • c. Financial assets carried at cost are investments in unquoted shares, which have no quoted prices in an active market and entail an unreasonably high cost to obtain verifiable fair values. Therefore, no fair value is presented.

  • d. Fair values of long-term loans and bonds payable are estimated using the present value of future cash flows discounted by the interest rates.

  • e. The fair value of domestic convertible bonds is estimated using the present value of cash flows, discounted at the risk-free interest rate upon issuing of bonds and at prevailing interest rate after taking into account risk premiums.

Fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on quoted market prices or valuation techniques were as follows:

Financial assets at FVTPL, current
Available-for-sale financial assets,

Liabilities


Financial liabilities at FVTPL,

Information about financial risks was as follows:

  • a. Market risk: The Corporation’s market risk refers to the uncertainties due to exchange rate fluctuations. Gains or losses on forward exchange contracts are likely to offset the gains or losses on foreign-currency assets or liabilities. The Corporation does not have significant price risk.

  • 90 -

  • b. Credit risk: Credit risk represents the potential loss that would be incurred by the Corporation if the counterparties breached contracts. The counterparties to the foregoing financial instruments are reputable financial institutions and business organizations. Management does not expect the Corporation’s exposure to default by those parties to be material.

  • c. Liquidity risk: The Corporation’s operating funds are deemed sufficient to meet the cash flow demand; therefore, liquidity risk is not considered to be significant.

  • d. Cash flow interest rate risk: The Corporation’s short term and long term loans are floating-rate loans. When the market interest rate increases by one percentage point, the Corporation’s cash outflow will increase by $20,218 thousand a year.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

The Board of Directors and Stockholders TXC Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of TXC Corporation and subsidiaries (the “Corporation”) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’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 Audit of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Those rules and 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 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 TXC Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the consolidated results of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of China.

March 25, 2013

Notice to Readers

T he accompanying consolidated financial statements are intended only to present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles and practices generally accepted in the Republic of China and not those of any other jurisdictions. The standards, procedures and practices to audit such consolidated financial statements are those generally accepted and applied in the Republic of China.

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

Foreign Currencies

The financial statements of foreign operations are translated into New Taiwan dollars at the following exchange rates:

  • a. Assets and liabilities - at exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date;

  • b. Shareholders’ equity - at historical exchange rates;

  • c. Dividends - at the exchange rate prevailing on the dividend declaration date; and

  • d. Income and expenses - at average exchange rates for the year.

Exchange differences arising from the translation of the financial statements of foreign operations are recognized as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. Such exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss in the year in which the foreign operations are disposed of.

  • 132 -

Non-derivative foreign-currency transactions are recorded at the rates of exchange in effect when the transactions occur. Exchange differences arising from the settlement of foreign-currency assets and liabilities are recognized in profit or loss.

At the balance sheet date, foreign-currency monetary assets and liabilities are revalued using prevailing exchange rates and the exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss.

If the functional currency of an equity-method investee is a foreign currency, translation adjustments will result from the translation of the investee’s financial statements into the reporting currency of the Corporation. Such adjustments are accumulated and reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.

Accounting Estimates

Under above guidelines, law and principles, certain estimates and assumptions have been used for the allowance for doubtful accounts, allowance for loss on inventories, depreciation of property, plant and equipment, income tax, pension cost, bonuses to employees, directors and supervisors, etc. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Current/Noncurrent Assets and Liabilities

Current assets include cash and cash equivalents, and those assets held primarily for trading purposes or to be realized, sold or consumed within one year from the balance sheet date. All other assets such as property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are classified as noncurrent. Current liabilities are obligations incurred for trading purposes or to be settled within one year from the balance sheet date. All other liabilities are classified as noncurrent.

Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents, consisting of commercial papers, bank acceptances and repurchase agreements collateralized by bonds, are highly liquid financial instruments with maturities of three months or less when acquired and with carrying amounts that approximate their fair values.

Financial Assets and Liabilities at Fair Value through Profit or Loss

Financial instruments classified as financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) include financial assets or financial liabilities held for trading and those designated as at FVTPL on initial recognition. The Corporation recognizes a financial asset or a financial liability on its balance sheet when the Corporation becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. A financial asset is derecognized when the Corporation has lost control of its contractual rights over the financial asset. A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation specified in the relevant contract is discharged, cancelled or expired.

Financial instruments at FVTPL are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognized immediately in profit or loss. At each balance sheet date subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are remeasured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized directly in profit or loss in the period in which they arise. On derecognition of a financial asset or a financial liability, the difference between its carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable or consideration paid and payable is recognized in profit or loss. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis.

A derivative that does not meet the criteria for hedge accounting is classified as a financial asset or a financial liability held for trading. If the fair value of the derivative is positive, the derivative is recognized as a financial asset; otherwise, the derivative is recognized as a financial liability.

  • 133 -

Fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities at the balance sheet date are determined as follows: Bonds - at prices quoted by the Taiwan GreTai Securities Market, and financial assets and financial liabilities without quoted prices in an active market - at values determined using valuation techniques.

Available-for-sale Financial Assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are initially measured at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition. At each balance sheet date subsequent to initial recognition, available-for-sale financial assets are remeasured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in equity until the financial assets are disposed of, at which time, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in equity is included in profit or loss for the period. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis.

The recognition, derecognition and the fair value bases of available-for-sale financial assets are the same with those of financial assets at FVTPL.

An impairment loss is recognized when there is objective evidence that the financial asset is impaired. Any subsequent decrease in impairment loss for an equity instrument classified as available-for-sale is recognized directly in equity. If the fair value of a debt instrument classified as available-for-sale subsequently increases as a result of an event which occurred after the impairment loss was recognized, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed to profit.

Fair value of financial assets at the balance sheet date is determined as follows: Open-end mutual funds - at net asset values.

Financial Assets Carried at Cost

Investments in equity instruments with no quoted prices in an active market and with fair values that cannot be reliably measured, such as non-publicly traded stocks and stocks traded in the Emerging Stock Market, are measured at their original cost. The accounting treatment for dividends on financial assets carried at cost is the same with that for dividends on available-for-sale financial assets. An impairment loss is recognized when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired. A reversal of this impairment loss is disallowed.

Impairment of Accounts Receivable

An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided on the basis of a review of the collectibility of accounts receivable. The Corporation assesses the probability of collections of accounts receivable by examining the aging analysis of the outstanding receivables and assessing the value of the collateral provided by customers.

As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, on January 1, 2011, the Corporation adopted the third-time revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 34, “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement.” One of the main revisions is that impairment of receivables originated by the Corporation should be covered by SFAS No. 34. Accounts receivable are assessed for impairment at the end of each reporting period and considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the accounts receivable, the estimated future cash flows of the asset have been affected. Objective evidence of impairment could include:

  • Significant financial difficulty of the debtor;

  • Accounts receivable becoming overdue; or

  • It is becoming probable that the debtor will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organization.

  • 134 -

Accounts receivable that are assessed as not impaired individually are further assessed for impairment on a collective basis. Objective evidence of impairment for a portfolio of accounts receivable could include the Corporation’s past experience in the collection of payments, an increase in the number of delayed payments, as well as observable changes in national or local economic conditions that correlate with defaults on receivables.

The amount of the impairment loss recognized is the difference between the asset carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, after taking into account the related collateral and guarantees, discounted at the receivable’s original effective interest rate.

The carrying amount of the accounts receivable is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When accounts receivable are considered uncollectible, they are written off against the allowance account. Recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited to the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognized as bad debt in profit or loss.

Impairment of Assets

If the recoverable amount of an asset (mainly property, plant and equipment, idle assets, leased assets and investments accounted for by the equity method) is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is charged to earnings unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is first treated as a deduction to the unrealized revaluation increment and any remaining loss is charged earnings.

If an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased accordingly, but the increased carrying amount may not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognized in earnings, unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is first recognized as gains to the extent that an impairment loss on the same revalued asset was previously charged to earnings.

Inventories

Inventories consist of raw materials, supplies and spare parts, work-in-process, finished goods and merchandise and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs are made item by item, except where it may be appropriate to group similar or related items. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price of inventories less all estimated costs of completion and costs necessary to make the sale. Inventories are recorded at weighted-average cost on the balance sheet date.

Investments Accounted for by the Equity Method

Investments in which the Corporation holds 20 percent or more of the investees’ voting shares or exercises significant influence over the investees’ operating and financial policy decisions are accounted for by the equity method.

Profits from downstream transactions with an equity-method investee are eliminated in proportion to the Corporation’s percentage of ownership in the investee; however, if the Corporation has control over the investee, all the profits are eliminated. Profits from upstream transactions with an equity-method investee are eliminated in proportion to the Corporation’s percentage of ownership in the investee.

Property, Plant and Equipment, Assets Leased to Others and Idle Assets

Property, plant and equipment and assets leased to others are stated at cost plus revaluation increment less accumulated depreciation. Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of property, plant and equipment are capitalized as part of the cost of those assets. Major additions and improvements to property, plant and equipment are capitalized, while costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed currently.

  • 135 -

Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives as follows: buildings - 2 to 55 years; machinery and equipment - 3 to 14 years; transportation equipment - 3 to 8 years; office equipment - 2 to 6 years; assets leased to others - 4 to 61 years.

Property, plant and equipment and assets leased to others still in use beyond their original estimated useful lives are further depreciated over their new estimated useful lives. Depreciation of revaluated assets is provided on a straight-line basis over their remaining estimated useful lives determined at the time of revaluation.

The related cost (including revaluation increment), accumulated depreciation, accumulated impairment losses and any unrealized revaluation increment of an item of property, plant and equipment are derecognized from the balance sheet upon its disposal. Any gain or loss on disposal of the asset is included in nonoperating gains or losses in the period of disposal.

Convertible Bonds

For convertible bonds issued on or after January 1, 2006, the Corporation first determines the carrying amount of the liability component by measuring the fair value of a similar liability that does not have an associated equity component, then determines the carrying amount of the equity component, representing the equity conversion option, by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the fair value of the convertible bonds as a whole. The liability component (excluding the embedded derivatives) is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, while the embedded non-equity derivatives are measured at fair value. Upon conversion, the Corporation uses the aggregate carrying amount of the liability and equity components of the bonds at the time of conversion as a basis to record the common shares issued.

Pension Cost

Pension cost under a defined benefit plan is determined by actuarial valuations. Contributions made under a defined contribution plan are recognized as pension cost during the period in which employees render services.

Curtailment or settlement gains or losses of the defined benefit plan are recognized as part of the net periodic pension cost for the period.

Income Tax

The Corporation applies the intra-period and inter-period allocation method to its income tax, whereby (1) a portion of income tax expense is allocated to the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles; and (2) deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax effects of temporary differences, unused loss carryforward and unused tax credits. Valuation allowances is provided to the extent, if any, that it is more likely than not that deferred income tax assets will not be realized. A deferred tax asset or liability is classified as current or noncurrent in accordance with the classification of its related asset or liability. However, if a deferred income tax asset or liability does not relate to an asset or liability in the financial statements, then it is classified as either current or noncurrent based on the expected length of time before it is realized or settled.

If the Corporation can control the timing of the reversal of a temporary difference between the book value and the tax basis of a long-term equity investment in a foreign subsidiary or joint venture and if the temporary difference is not expected to reverse in the foreseeable future and will, in effect, exist indefinitely, then a deferred tax liability or asset is not recognized.

Tax credits for purchases of machinery, equipment and technology, research and development expenditures, and personnel training expenditures are recognized using the flow-through method.

  • 136 -

Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current period’s tax provision.

According to the Income Tax Law, an additional tax at 10% of unappropriated earnings is provided for as income tax in the year the shareholders approve to retain the earnings.

TCTI and GPT are tax-exempt companies incorporated in Samoa and the British Virgin Islands.

The Corporation’s other subsidiaries, including TXC Technology, Inc., TXC Japan Corporation, and TXC Europe, are subject to their respective country’s income tax law.

TXC (H.K.) Limited and TCTI-HK are subject to income tax at the rate of 17.5% on income generated in Hong Kong; otherwise, income tax rate is 0%.

According to “Enterprise Income Tax Law of the People’s Republic of China”, enterprises within the territory of the People’s Republic of China are subject to income tax at the rate of 25%. For State-encouraged new technology and high technology enterprises such as NGB, income tax rate is reduced to 15%.

Stock-based Compensation

Employee stock options granted between January 1, 2004 and December 31, 2007 were accounted for under the interpretations issued by the Accounting Research and Development Foundation (“ARDF”). The Corporation adopted the intrinsic value method, under which compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.

Treasury Stock

Treasury stock is stated at cost and shown as a deduction from shareholders’ equity.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from sales of goods is recognized when the Corporation has transferred to the buyer the significant risks and rewards of ownership of the goods, primarily upon shipment, because the earnings process has been completed and the economic benefits associated with the transaction have been realized or are realizable. The Corporation does not recognize sales revenue on materials delivered to subcontractors because this delivery does not involve a transfer of risks and rewards of materials ownership.

Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts agreed between the Corporation and the customers for goods sold in the normal course of business, net of sales discounts and volume rebates. For trade receivables due within one year from the balance sheet date, as the nominal value of the consideration to be received approximates its fair value and transactions are frequent, fair value of the consideration is not determined by discounting all future receipts using an imputed rate of interest.

Reclassifications

Certain accounts in the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011 have been reclassified to conform to the presentation of the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012.

18. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Capital Stock

The Corporation’s authorized capital was $5,000,000 thousand and $4,000,000 thousand at December 31, 2012 and 2011 ($10.00 par value per share). As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Corporation’s issued capital stock was $3,022,423 thousand divided into 302,242 thousand shares, at NT$10.00 par value each. Exercised stock options in the amount of $24,460 thousand and convertible bonds in the amount of $50,687 thousand have not been registered; therefore, they are classified into advance receipts for common stock.

Employee Stock Options

In December 2007, 8,000 options were granted to qualified employees of the Corporation and its subsidiaries. Each option entitles the holder to subscribe for one thousand common shares of the Corporation when exercisable. The options granted are valid for 5 years and exercisable at certain percentages after the second anniversary year from the grant date. The options were granted at an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Corporation’s common shares listed on the TSE on the grant date. For any subsequent changes in the Corporation’s paid-in capital, the exercise price is adjusted accordingly.

  • b. The employees holding these shares are not entitled to receive cash and stock dividends.

  • c. The employees holding these shares have no voting right.

The capital surplus from shares issued in excess of par (including additional paid-in capital from issuance of common shares, conversion of bonds and treasury stock transactions) and donations may be used to offset a deficit; in addition, when the Corporation has no deficit, such capital surplus may be distributed as cash dividends or transferred to capital (limited to a certain percentage of the Corporation’s paid-in capital and once a year).

The capital surplus from long-term investments, employee stock options and conversion options may not be used for any purpose.

Appropriation of Earnings and Dividend Policy

Under the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation, the Corporation should appropriate 10% of its net income less any prior years’ deficit as legal reserve. The remaining amount may be fully retained or partially retained and partially distributed for dividends, upon the stockholders’ approval, according to the following percentages.

  • a. Employee bonus - not less than 3%

  • b. Directors and supervisors’ remuneration - not more than 2%

  • c. Stock bonuses to employees include subsidiaries’ employees who meet certain criteria set by the stockholders’ meetings.

Dividends are recommended by the board of directors in accordance with the Corporation’s dividend policy. Under this policy, industry trend and growth should be evaluated, investment opportunities should be fully understood, and proper capital adequacy ratios should be considered in determining the dividend to be distributed. In addition, cash dividends should not be less than 20% of the total dividends to be appropriated.

For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the bonus to employees was $124,079 thousand and $113,317 thousand, respectively, and the remuneration to directors and supervisors was $20,680 thousand and $18,886 thousand, respectively. The bonus to employees and remuneration to directors and supervisors represented 12% and 2%, respectively, of net income (net of the bonus and remuneration). Material differences between such estimated amounts and the amounts proposed by the Board of Directors in the following year are adjusted for in the current year. If the actual amounts subsequently resolved by the stockholders differ from the proposed amounts, the differences are recorded in the year of stockholders’ resolution as a change in accounting estimate. 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 closing price (after considering the effect of cash and stock dividends) of the shares of the day immediately preceding the stockholders’ meeting.

  • 148 -

Based on a directive issued by the Securities and Futures Bureau, an amount equal to the net debit balance of certain stockholders’ equity accounts (including unrealized revaluation increment, unrealized gain or loss on financial instruments, net loss not recognized as pension cost, cumulative transaction adjustments) shall be transferred from unappropriated earnings to a special reserve. Any special reserve appropriated may be reversed to the extent of the decrease in the net debit balance.

Except for non-ROC resident stockholders, all stockholders receiving the dividends are allowed a tax credit equal to their proportionate share in the income tax paid by the Corporation.

The appropriations of earnings for 2011 and 2010 had been approved in the stockholders’ meetings on June 13, 2012 and June 10, 2011, respectively. The appropriations and dividends per share were as follows:

The ARDF issued Interpretation 2007-052 that requires companies to recognize bonuses paid to employees, directors and supervisors as compensation expenses beginning January 1, 2008. These bonuses were previously recorded as appropriations from earnings. If the Corporation may settle the bonus to employees by cash or shares, the Corporation should presume that the entire amount of the bonus will be settled in shares and the resulting potential shares should be included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the calculation of diluted EPS, if the shares have a dilutive effect. The number of shares is estimated by dividing the entire amount of the bonus by the closing price of the shares at the balance sheet date. Such dilutive effect of the potential shares should be included in the calculation of diluted EPS until the shareholders resolve the number of shares to be distributed to employees at their meeting in the following year.

Methods and assumptions used in estimation of fair values of financial instruments were as follows:

  • a. The above financial instruments do not include cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts receivable, notes and accounts payable and short-term loans. Because of the short maturities of these instruments, the carrying values represent a reasonable basis to estimate fair values.

  • b. Fair values of financial instruments designated as at FVTPL, available-for-sale and derivatives are based on their quoted prices in an active market. For those instruments with no quoted market prices, their fair values are determined using valuation techniques incorporating estimates and assumptions consistent with those generally used by other market participants to price financial instruments.

  • c. Financial assets carried at cost are investments in unquoted shares, which have no quoted prices in an active market and entail an unreasonably high cost to obtain verifiable fair values. Therefore, no fair value is presented.

  • d. Fair value of long-term loans and bonds payable are estimated using the present value of future cash flows discounted by the interest rates.

  • e. The fair value of domestic convertible bonds is estimated using the present value of cash flows, discounted at the risk-free interest rate upon issuing of bonds and at prevailing interest rate after taking into account risk premiums.

Valuation losses brought by changes in fair value of financial instruments determined using valuation techniques were $26,747 thousand and $12,705 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Information about financial risks was as follows:

  • a. Market risk: The Corporation’s market risk refers to the uncertainties due to exchange rate fluctuations. Gains or losses on forward exchange contracts are likely to offset the gains or losses on foreign-currency assets or liabilities. The Corporation does not have significant price risk.

  • b. Credit risk: Credit risk represents the potential loss that would be incurred by the Corporation if the counterparties breached contracts. The counterparties to the foregoing financial instruments are reputable financial institutions and business organizations. Management does not expect the Corporation’s exposure to default by those parties to be material.

  • c. Liquidity risk: The Corporation’s operating funds are deemed sufficient to meet the cash flow demand; therefore, liquidity risk is not considered to be significant.

  • d. Cash flow interest rate risk: The Corporation’s short term and long term loans are floating-rate loans. When the market interest rate increases by one percentage point, the Corporation’s cash outflow will increase by $23,094 thousand a year.

4) Special reserve at the date of transition to IFRSs

In accordance with the order VI-1010012865 issued by the FSC on April 6, 2012, at the first-time adoption of IFRSs, in case an entity elects to use exemption options specified in IFRS 1 and resets unrealized revaluation increment and cumulative translation differences in stockholders’ equity to zero by a credit to retained earnings, the same amount from retained earnings will be transferred to special reserve provided that such amount is less than the aggregate amount of IFRS adjustments. If the amount of retained earnings brought by IFRSs adjustments at the first-time adoption of IFRS is less than the total of revaluation increment and cumulative translation differences, the amount transferred to special reserve is limited to the amount of retained earnings from IFRS adjustments. The special reserve will be reversed proportionally as the related assets are used, disposed of or reclassified to other accounts. The Corporation appropriated $222,793 thousand, the increase in retained earnings from all IFRSs adjustments at the first-time adoption of IFRSs, to special reserve.

  • 163 -

5) Exemptions from IFRS 1

IFRS 1, “First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards,” established the procedures for preparing consolidated financial statements for the first time prepared in accordance with IFRSs. According to IFRS 1, the Corporation is required to determine the accounting policies under IFRSs and retrospectively apply to those accounting policies in its opening balance sheet at the date of transition to IFRSs (January 1, 2012; the transition date); except for optional exemptions and mandatory exceptions to such retrospective application provided under IFRS 1. The main optional exemptions the Group adopted are summarized as follows:

  • a) Measurement at cost

At the date of transition to IFRSs, the Corporation should measure property, plant and equipment and intangible properties at cost in accordance with IFRSs. The relevant regulations should be retrospectively adopted.

As of January 1, 2012 and December 31, 2012, the amounts reclassified from land - revaluation increment in the amount of $8,954 thousand was credited to reserve for land value increment tax were $3,512 thousand and unrealized revaluation increment $5,442 thousand.

b) Employee benefits

The Corporation elected to recognize all cumulative actuarial gains and losses relating to employee benefits in unappropriated earnings at the date of transition to IFRSs.

  • c) Cumulative translation differences

The Corporation elected to reset the cumulative translation differences $264,762 thousand to zero at the date of transition to IFRSs, and the reversal has been used to offset accumulated earnings.

  • 6) Notes to the reconciliation of the significant differences

The Group had assessed the material differences and the effects, shown below, between the existing accounting policies and the accounting policies to be adopted under IFRSs:

  • a) Classifications of deferred income tax asset/liability and valuation allowance

Under ROC GAAP, a deferred tax asset or liability is classified as current or noncurrent in accordance with the classification of its related asset or liability. However, if a deferred income tax asset or liability does not relate to an asset or liability in the financial statements, it is classified as either current or noncurrent based on the expected length of time before it is realized or settled. Under IFRSs, a deferred tax asset or liability is classified as noncurrent asset or liability.

As of December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the amounts reclassified from current deferred income tax assets to non-current assets were $7,741 thousand and $3,542 thousand, respectively.

  • 164 -

b) Employee benefits - accumulated compensated absences

Accumulated compensated absences account is not addressed in existing ROC GAAP; thus, the Corporation has not recognized the expected cost of employee benefits in the form of accumulated compensated absences at the end of reporting periods. However, under IFRSs, when the employees render services that increase their entitlement to future compensated absences, an entity should recognize the expected cost of employee benefits at the end of reporting periods.

As of December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the IFRS adjustment increased accrued expenses by $19,535 thousand and $18,588 thousand, respectively; deferred income tax assets - noncurrent increased by $3,258 thousand and $3,078 thousand, respectively. Retained earnings decreased by $16,277 thousand and $15,510 thousand, respectively. Salaries and income tax expense for the year ended December 31, 2012 increased by $947 thousand and decreased by $180 thousand, respectively.

c) Employee benefits-defined benefit plans

The Corporation had previously applied an actuarial valuation on its defined benefit obligation and recognized the related pension cost and retirement benefit obligation in conformity with ROC GAAP. Under IFRSs, the Group should carry out actuarial valuation on defined benefit obligation in accordance with IAS No. 19, “Employee Benefits.”

In addition, under ROC GAAP, it is not allowed to recognize actuarial gains and losses from defined benefit plans directly to equity; instead, actuarial gains and losses should be accounted for under the corridor approach which requires in the deferral of gains and losses. When using the corridor approach, actuarial gains and losses should be amortized over the expected average remaining working lives of the participating employees.

Under IAS No. 19, “Employee Benefits,” the Corporation elects to recognize actuarial gains and losses immediately in full in the period in which they occur, as other comprehensive income. The subsequent reclassification to earnings is not permitted.

At the transition date, the Corporation performed the actuarial valuation under IAS No. 19 - “Employee Benefits,” and recognized the valuation difference directly in retained earnings under the requirement of IFRS 1. As of December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the IFRSs adjustment increased accrued pension cost by $17,394 thousand and $16,242 thousand, decreased net loss not recognized as pension cost by $22,808 thousand and $15,637 thousand, increased deferred income tax assets – noncurrent by $5,132 thousand and $5,420 thousand, and decreased retained earnings by $35,070 thousand and $26,459 thousand, respectively. Salaries, income tax expenses and actuarial gains and losses decreased by $1,705 thousand, increased by $290 thousand, and increased by $10,026 thousand, respectively.

d) Classification of line items in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income

Under IFRSs, based on the nature of operating transactions, gain on disposal of property, plant and equipment of $849 thousand was reclassified to operating expenses.

e) Classification of deferred charges

Under ROC GAAP, deferred charges are classified under other assets. Under IFRSs, the items in deferred charges are classified as property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and prepayments - noncurrent (recorded under other assets) according to their nature.

  • 165 -

As of December 31, 2012, the amounts reclassified from deferred charges to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets were $33,123 thousand and $11,084 thousand, respectively. As of January 1, 2012, the amounts reclassified from deferred charges to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets were $36,125 thousand and $17,785 thousand, respectively.

  • f) Classification of investment property

Under ROC GAAP, the property that is held by a lessor under an operating lease is classified under property, plant and equipment. Under IFRSs, the property held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both should be classified as investment property.

  • g) Prepayments for equipment

Under IFRSs, prepayments for equipment should be classified to other assets. As of December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the amounts were $484,963 thousand and $126,599 thousand, respectively.

  • h) Land use rights

Under ROC GAAP, land use rights are classified under intangible assets. Under IAS No 17 - “Leases,” land use rights are classified as long-term prepaid rent.

As of December 31, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the amounts reclassified from land use rights to other current assets and prepayments - noncurrent were $115,024 thousand and $117,530 thousand, respectively.

  • c. The Group has prepared the above assessments in accordance with (a) the 2010 version of the IFRSs translated by the ARDF and issued by the FSC and (b) the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers amended and issued by the FSC on December 22, 2011. These assessments may be changed as the FSC may issue new rules governing the adoption of IFRSs and as other laws and regulations may be amended to comply with the adoption of IFRSs. Actual results may differ from these assessments.
