1. 2012 Business Report

1. Introduction

In 2012, the overall economy suffered a severe setback. As the European debt crisis continued to worsen and the credit ratings of European countries continued to be downgraded, the Eurozone has been facing an increased risk of disintegration. The US fiscal cliff was a threat to the economy as well but even though the crisis was temporarily averted, the debt ceiling dispute has created an uncertainty for the future. The spike in oil prices was exacerbated by the sanctions imposed by Europe and the US on Iran, a major oil exporter. The latest IMF report shows that the growth rate of the global economy has fallen slightly to 3.2% as compared to the previous year. In view of the European debt problems and US financial crisis, the average economic growth rate of advanced countries as a whole declined to 1.3%. The economic growth in emerging markets and developing countries has weakened, being revised down to 5.3%. Due to the slowdown of demand, China’s growth rate had declined to 7.8%. However, the concept of urbanisation will continue to boost a huge market demand. Every one per cent increase in urbanisation rate is expected to bring about RMB 7 trillion worth of investments and consumer needs for China, and boost the future economy of China and the world. Global trade growth declined from 5.8% to 3.2% in 2012. The European debt and the US fiscal problems cannot be resolved in the short term, but with China actively promoting economic restructuring, even if the strength of recovery may be feeble , there will still be light at the end of the tunnel in 2013.

In view of the global economic downturn in 2012, many shipowners were facing grim financial situation. Korea Line Corp., Japan’s Sanko, and several major shipping companies in Europe and the US have filed for bankruptcy. Hit by huge waves of losses, 2012 was a difficult year for the bulk shipping industry. According to statistics compiled by Clarksons, 4.036 billion tons of dry bulk cargo was transported globally in 2012; the growth rate remained at 6%. China was still the largest importer of iron ore, steam coal and coking coal, accounting for 65%, 18% and 14% respectively of global imports; and has been the leading indicator for raw materials index. However, the National Bureau of Statistics of China pointed out that China’s PMI index hit a new low again in 2012, the lowest point in three years at an average of 50.75. This is an indication that China’s manufacturing economy is contracting. The National Energy Administration of China announced that China’s total power consumption in 2012 was 4.9591 trillion kilowatt hours (kWh) and loan balance was RMB 62.99 trillion, year-on-year increase of 5.5% and 15% respectively; with the rates of growth showing a downward trend. China’s railway freight volume dropped significantly, with the growth rate sliding 7% in 2012 as compared to 2011. The above data indicated weaker demand and slowing down of economic growth rate in China. China Customs shows China’s iron ore imports as 745.6 million tons in 2012, year-on-year increase of only 8.69% and accounting for up to 68% of total demand. According to the World Steel Association Report, China’s crude steel production amounted to 709 million tons in 2012, accounting for 45.8% of global crude steel production, with year-on-year growth rate declining to 3.66%. Iron ore demand and steel production volume were not as high as before, causing prices of iron ore and steel to decline, making 2012 the most challenging year for the steel industry. However, since China is actively committed to expanding domestic demand, 52.6% of urbanisation rate in 2012 and 479kg of steel use per capita in 2011 show that China still has a lot of room for growth. With the huge potential for development in China, the iron ore and steel markets are expected to rebound in 2013.

In the area of coal, according to statistics compiled by Clarksons, global steam coal trade increased 11% year-on-year. However, the global environmental protection storm has caused coal

2

consumption to be brought under control. The US shut down coal-fired power generating units in succession and has successfully developed shale gas. According to the EIA Short-Term Energy Outlook Report, the share of total power generation in the US fuelled by coal declined from 42.3% to 37.4% in 2012. Low-price low-carbon shale gas is fast replacing coal in power generation. Nevertheless, driven by energy demand in China, according to the statistic of China Customs, US coal exports to China surged 90% in 2012. China’s growth momentum in the future will continue to pull on US exports. In the area of imports, driven by large energy demand for economic development, China is still the largest importer of steam coal, with significant increase of 37.2% in growth rate. In the area of coking coal, despite the downturn in the downstream steel industry, China’s urbanisation policy has caused import trade to maintain positive growth of 7%.

According to Clarksons, the bulk shipping capacity in 2012 was 679.2 million deadweight tons, year-on-year growth of 10% and sliding 5% compared to the previous year. The actual number of vessels delivered was 1,199 in total or 3.28 on average per day. Oversupply in the shipping market and the dismal economy have left many shipowners in a state of financial crisis. To weather the crisis, shipowners had been selling their vessels. The second-hand vessel transaction volume grew 20% in 2012, with 76% (year-on-year increase of 16%) of the vessels below the age of 20 years. In addition, the sluggish shipping market led to significant increase in the number of ships being scrapped. The ship breaking market became active as a result, hitting a record high in 2012 with 585 ships demolished, a year-on-year increase of 47%. At the peak of economic recovery, shipowners made a mad rush to place orders, which resulted in excess supply in the market. However, the economic slump also led to reduction in new orders in 2012, with year-on-year negative growth of 24%. This shows that vessel delivery will begin to slide in the future. Even though the shipbreaking market has picked up, China’s economy started to slow down and market demand was not as it used to be. Still faced with excess supply, shipping price was unable to rebound to the above average level. The average Baltic Dry Index was at 920 points in 2012, the lowest since 1986, which fully reflected the dire state of the bulk shipping economy in 2012.

Uncertainties in the bulk market in 2012 will bring in many challenges in 2013. For the general economy: 1. The European debt crisis and US fiscal cliff concerns will continue to curb economic growth. 2. As China’s growth rate begins to fall, the pursuit for quality and effective sustainable growth will be the development priority for China. 3. China’s urbanisation concept will continue to dominate the demand for iron ore, coal and other raw materials. With such huge domestic demand, there will be ongoing plans for expansion by global miners and the supply of iron ore will grow steadily in the future. 4. The slowing demand in China, excess capacity and high financial costs will be the challenges for the steel industry in 2013. 5. Brazilian mining company, Vale’s 35 very large ore carriers (VLOCs) are expected to be fully delivered in 2013. However, in view of strategic considerations, China has yet to allow huge carriers to dock. Even though the ship breaking market has improved greatly, the mistake of entering the market with huge shipping capacity will still continue to exacerbate the pressure of excess supply. 6. With increased awareness of environmental protection and implementation of low-carbon economy, improving efficiency and saving on transport cost will be the key to survival of the bulk shipping industry. Despite the slackening performance in global shipping in 2012, U-Ming Marine will continue its best effort to prepare for the future challenges and create even more profits and value for our shareholders.

2. Business Performance

Despite the economic downturn and threats of decreased freight rates, U-Ming Marine still maintained its robust operations. Our consolidated revenue in 2012 amounted to NTD 7,963,624,000; net profit after tax was NTD 1,804,247,000; and earnings per share after tax (EPS) was NTD 2.10; thus showing a healthy operating performance.

3

U-Ming had continued with its fleet renewal and expansion plans in 2012. The older carriers “Cemtex Renaissance,” “Cape Europe” and “Cape Australia” were decommissioned; while a total of five new vessels were added to the fleet including two new Supramax carriers “Asian Champion” and “Asian Triumph”, as well as a 98,000 DWT Post-Panamax carrier “Cemtex Orient” and the two over-200,000 DWT Capesize carriers “Cape Globe” and “Cape Neptune” till the end of April, 2013. We had placed eco-friendly new building orders for four 186,000 DWT Capesize carriers in February and two 84,000 DWT Panamax carriers in November to add vitality to our fleet and provide better service to our customers.

In addition, our Company had received “ISO 14001” certification by DNV in August, and was conferred the “Port of Long Beach Green Flag Award” in September – enhancing our responsibility to protect the marine environment and to achieve the goal of a green business. We are also committing that our new vessels ordered are fuel efficient with reduced carbon emissions. U-Ming Marine will spare no effort to protect the marine ecosystem and fulfil our corporate social responsibility to maintain a better global environment.

3. Business Strategy

Under the pressure of oversupply in the market, our Company has to be ever more prudent and cautious in our operations. By adopting the internal E-platform, we will have real-time access to market information; and through real-time online communication and sharing, we can achieve barrier-free information flow within our internal network. In addition, through the establishment of the “Customer Relations Management” (CRM) system, we are able to understand more on the needs of our customers, as well as industry dynamics, thus able to make adjustments in our strategy at any time to enhance our operational efficiency.

In terms of finance, we will continue to take advantage of the tax incentives in Taiwan and our overseas subsidiaries to effectively reduce our company’s real tax rates. We will constantly pay close attention to foreign currency exchange rates and interest rate trends to control exchange and interest rate risks. As for manpower training, we will conduct regular English language training for our staff to improve their second language skill. In addition to cultivating outstanding staff on shore and on board the vessels, we have also set up U-Ming Shipping Services Co., Ltd in Xiamen to expand our scope of operation in China. In addition, we will carry out regular servicing and maintenance of our vessels, improve the work environment for the crew on board and comply strictly with the inspection requirements at various ports in the world.

Faced with the tough market environment, our vessels will adopt slow-steaming navigation in order to reduce fuel consumption. Through fleet scheduling and planning, we will optimize our voyage operational efficiency. We will appropriately increase the proportion of long-term contracts and carefully select our customers for business dealings, with priority given to large enterprises with good reputation and operational stability, so as to reduce operating risk for our company. To keep our fleet young, we will replace our fleet at appropriate times and continue to expand our fleet size so as to enhance our competitiveness in the industry.

U-Ming’s short-term goals are as follows:

  1. To continue with our vessels’ renewal plan;

  2. To strengthen vessels’ deployment plan and cost control;

  3. To prudently select customers with good credit ratings and assets and acquire long-term Contract of Affreightment (COA) to reduce market risks;

4

  1. To enhance Port State Control (PSC) inspection records and achieve a zero detention rate;

  2. To increase awareness about environmental protection both on board the vessels and on-shore and fulfil our corporate social responsibility to preserve the marine ecological environment.

U-Ming’s long-term goals are as follows:

  1. To continue with the plan to expand fuel-efficient and high-performance fleet with a target to double the present fleet;

  2. To seek out business partners with good reputation and quality assets;

  3. To diversify into various shipping segments and portfolio of vessels;

  4. To merge and acquire suitable companies with good synergy and asset standing.

4. Conclusion

“Sincerity, Diligence, Thrift, Prudence and Innovation” are U-Ming’s philosophy for business development. The digital transformation has enhanced the competitiveness of our Company. Facing with the ever-changing bulk shipping environment, the Company will maintain a high degree of adaptability; emphasising on cost and operational efficiency; developing flexible and resilient business strategy to maximize profit and value for our shareholders; as well as fulfilling our corporate social responsibility as the caretaker of the marine ecological environment. 2013 may be filled with challenges, but under the prudent leadership of our management, we are confident that we will be able to grasp and create business opportunities in the market, to overcome all challenges and to continue to grow. We shall continue to strive towards the vision of “building U-Ming into a world-class logistic and transportation company” with “core expertise in shipping as its foundation” and “to be the first choice for our customers, employees and investors”.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

The Board of Directors and Stockholders U-Ming Marine Transport Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of U-Ming Marine Transport Corporation (the “Corporation”) and subsidiaries 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 consolidated 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 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 financial position of U-Ming Marine Transport Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their 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.

Our audits also comprehended the translation of the New Taiwan dollar amounts into U.S. dollar amounts and, in our opinion, such translation has been made in conformity with the basis stated in Note 4. Such U.S. dollar amounts are presented solely for the convenience of readers.
