Business Report 2012 Attachment 1

Businesses experienced more turbulent international and domestic economic conditions in 2012 than those experienced during the global financial crisis four years ago. This was even more so for businesses in Taiwan that struggled to survive under the tough economic conditions. In spite of the adversities, we have demonstrated our exceptional potential. Our entire team of dedicated employees worked together to create a record-breaking milestone in the midst of the downturn. We have again proven our perseverance and confidence in overcoming adversities!

Our experienced management team and well-established profitability model and risk control mechanisms are capable of responding to systematic risks arising from changes in market conditions. Although we fell short of achieving the set business targets, the benefits of discontinuing our raw material trading business, that has historically been a low yielding part of the Company’s business, were realized in higher profitability for 2012, which again exceeded NT$10 billion and showed an increase against that achieved in the previous year. It is evident that there is yet more room for growth even in a mature food industry if a business is daring to innovate and is willing to face challenges. The Company achieved a net sales figure of NT$46.9 billion for year 2012, a decline of 9.6% against the previous year; while net income after tax stood at NT$12.4 billion, representing an increase of 31.3% against 2011; and consolidated net sales amounted to NT$ 427.5 billion.

2012 was a record-breaking year during which our results of operation rose to new heights. On September 28, 2012, the Company’s market value exceeded NT$ 250 billion for the first time in 45 years, an outstanding result that marked a new milestone in our corporate history and qualified the Company to become one of the top 15 enterprises in Taiwan. On the other hand, we are one of the only two enterprises that have been ranked among the top 10 most reputable and benchmark enterprises by Common Wealth Magazine for 18 consecutive years. Our exceptional performance serves as a reminder that we must maintain a high level of awareness to the high expectations and criticism we receive from society. As such, we should exercise vigilance and at the same time encourage ourselves to scale new heights in return for the support of our shareholders, employees and the general public!

Business Restructure, Stable Growth and Outperforming Ourselves

During 2012, we made the decision to discontinue the raw material trading business we have been operating for many years in Taiwan, but yet was of little added value to the Company. In doing so, we have achieved better profitability and was better resourced to create businesses with higher added values. The results showed that we are capable of achieving what we are determined to achieve and we dare to be different!

Our future is driven by our goals of constantly setting new milestones and achieving better results. Business restructure and stable growth are a clear reflection of our self-disciplined management approach and sound work habits of our employees. More so, these are the focus of our business operations for 2013. We will continue to devote our resources to the enhancement of big brand names and development of multi-billion dollar products. We hope that our focused management approach and stay-simple operations will create a safe environment for our food production business, for our employees, and for information processing. We are poised to grow and constantly improve.

Accelerating Cross-Strait Investments and Expansion of Plants, Strengthening Business Presence in South East Asia and Creating a New Century

In 2013, the construction of several new plants in China was completed and put into operation. The operation of the new plants will further enhance our manufacturing base in China. Our goal is to have one operating plant in every province of China (except Tibet and Qinghai) to better serve the local market. We have also invested in the construction of the 6[th] composite food production plant in Hukou, Hsinchu County, Taiwan. We expect to complete the construction of the basic infrastructure of the plant during this financial year. Meanwhile, we also marketed our products in South-East Asian countries including Malaysia, Singapore, Myanmar and India. Our primary objective for business deployment in South East Asia is to “strengthen and grow”, with the optimal goal of making the most of the future growth opportunities in the Asian market.

Business Prospects for 2013

The Company will remain focused on our business management, adopt a simple operational approach that is poised to achieve the sales targets set for the domestic market for 2013. We shall work earnestly to maximize returns for our shareholders! We look forward to your continued support and comments. Thank you

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Uni-President Enterprises Corp.

We have audited the accompanying non-consolidated balance sheets of Uni-President Enterprises Corp. as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related non-consolidated statements of income, of changes in stockholder's equity and of cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of certain investee companies accounted for under the equity method. These long-term equity investments amounted to $14,702,117 thousand and $14,945,000 thousand (net of long-term investment with negative balance of $40,859 thousand shown as other liabilities-other) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and their related net investment income amounted to $532,004 thousand and $908,577 thousand for the years then ended, respectively. The financial statements of these investee companies were audited by other auditors whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinion expressed herein, insofar as it relates to the amounts included in the financial statements and the information disclosed in Note 11 relative to these long-term investments, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the “Regulations Governing the Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants” and generally accepted auditing standards 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 and the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the accompanying non-consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Uni-President Enterprises Corp. as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with the “Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers” and generally accepted accounting principles in the Republic of China.

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Uni-President Enterprises Corp. and its subsidiaries (not presented herein) as of and for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. In our report dated March 28, 2013, we expressed a modified unqualified opinion on those statements.

Details Regarding Raising Funds by Issuing Common Stocks in Attachment 7 Connection with Capital Increase to Sponsor Issuance of

Overseas Depository Receipts, or by Issuing New Shares Domestically

  • 1.The principles governing issuance of common stocks in connection with capital increase to sponsor issuance of overseas depository receipts are as follows:

  • (1)The number of shares issued for the current capital increase to sponsor issuance of overseas depository receipts shall not exceed 150,000,000 shares. The shareholders then authorize the Board of Directors to, within the aforesaid limitation of authorized issuance, adjust the issuance amount according to the market conditions and all shares shall be issued in one tranche.

  • (2)Pursuant to the “Self-Discipline Guidance For Underwriters regarding Assisting the Issuers in the Offering and Issuance of Securities” of the Taiwan Securities Association, the issue price of common stocks in connection with capital increase to sponsor issuance of overseas depository receipts shall not be lower than the closing price of the Company’s common share in the domestic centralized securities exchange market, or 90% of the average stock price calculated by the average of common share closing prices in the previous one, three or five days (choose one) prior to the fixing date deducted by ex-rights and ex-dividends of bonus shares; provided that the measure to fix the price shall be adjusted when relevant domestic laws and regulations have been amended. Due to the fact that the domestic stock prices often fluctuate drastically within a short period of time, thus, the President of the Company is authorized to determined the actual fixing price within the aforesaid scope in accordance with common international practices, after referring to international capital market, domestic market prices and consolidated distributive sales and consulting with underwriters, to increase the acceptance of overseas investors. Thus, this method of fixing the issue price shall be deemed reasonable.

In accordance with the fair trading market price of a common share in the domestic centralized securities exchange market, the original shareholders may acquire the common stock in the domestic securities exchange market on a price similar to the fixing price of overseas depository receipts without the risks of foreign exchange and marketability. Furthermore, the value of shares to be issued is no more than 150,000,000 shares, which constitutes approximately 3.08% of all outstanding common shares of the Company. However, the capita increase may improve the competitiveness of the Company, and thus, benefit the shareholders whose rights and interests will not be materially influenced.
  • (3)In accordance with Article 267 of the Company Act, 10%~15% of the total number of shares to be issued for capital increase shall be reserved for subscription by employees of the Company. All other shares, pursuant to Article 28-1 of the Securities and Exchange Act, will be offered to the public after the original shareholders give up the first refusal right, as the original securities to sponsor overseas depository receipts. For reserved shares not subscribed by the employees, the President of the Company is authorized to offer them to specific person(s) for subscription, or to combine them into the original securities to sponsor issuance of overseas depository receipts according to the market needs.

  • (4)The funds raised through this issuance of common shares in connection with capital increase to sponsor issuance of overseas depository receipts are to be used to increase operation funds, repay bank loans, purchase machines and facilities, reinvest and so on. It is to be completed within two (2) years after the funds are raised.

  • (2)The par value of each new share to be issued shall be 10 NT dollars (NT$10), while the actual issue price will be determined in accordance with relevant rules specified in the “Self-Discipline Guidance For Underwriters regarding Assisting the Issuers in the Offering and Issuance of Securities” of the Taiwan Securities Association and based on the market conditions upon the time of issuance after the President consults with underwriters. The new shares will be issued after the actual issue price is submitted to the competent authority for approval.

  • (3) If a capital increase by cash is undertaken by the book building method, ten to fifteen percent of new shares issued through the capital increase shall be reserved for acquisition by employees in accordance with Article 267 of the Company Act; while the remaining shares are to be allocated for public offer by the book building method, with the original shareholders forfeiting their rights of priority subscription to the new shares in accordance with Article 28-1 of the Securities and Exchange Act. The Chairman is authorized to offer certain individuals the right to acquire any unsubscribed shares due to forfeiture of the right to subscribe or in case where issued shares were under subscribed.

  • (4) If the capital increase by cash was effected through a public tender, besides retaining ten to fifteen percent of the new shares issued through the capital increase for acquisition by employees in accordance with Article 267 of the Company Act, Article 28-1 of the Securities and Exchange Act also stipulate that ten percent of the newly issued shares shall be offered at market value to the public.

The term"related party" in
subparagraph 7 of the preceding
paragraph means a related party
as defined in the Regulations
Governing the Preparation of

Issuers. The term"major
donation to a non-related party"

ratification of such
donation in the next

meeting. Paragraph 7
