Business Report 2016

Dear Shareholders,

In 2016, a number of events, such as the Brexit referendum, the U.S. presidential election, and the decline of international maritime transportation, reflected the impact of anti-globalization on the global economy. Taiwan, as an export-oriented economy, faced the same challenge. Winbond has built on a solid foundation on memory products for niche market and continued to introduce innovative technology, expand production capacity at a steady pace, and optimize the product portfolio. We earned stable profits for the fourth consecutive year by extending our reach in the diverse application market and winning clients' trust.

Financial Performance

The consolidated revenue, including that of Nuvoton Technology Corp and other subsidiaries, amounted to NT$42,090 million in 2016, up 9.8% from 2015. We reported consolidated net profit of NT$3,140 million and stand-alone net profit of NT$2,898 million or NT$0.81 per share in 2016.

Market and Product Applications

In 2016, Winbond's memory revenue was 9% higher than that in the previous year. In terms of product lines, DRAM, including Specialty DRAM and Mobile DRAM, accounted for 63% of the memory revenue, while Code Storage Flash memory revenue accounted for 37% of the memory revenue. The company had started displaying unique advantages after years of working with international clients and staying abreast of market trends.

With respect to product applications, Winbond made progress in various areas of application and achieved balanced growth in these areas. In 2016, the percentages of communication products and of consumer products out of the total memory revenue were 32% and 25%, respectively. This was the same level as the previous year. As conventional PCs were slowly being replaced by mobile devices, the percentage accounted by PCs and peripherals fell to 25%. Taking advantage of fast growth in automotive electronics and industrial automation, Winbond saw the percentage of automotive electronics and industrial automation revenue jumped to 18% this year.

Technology and Manufacturing

Following the core philosophy of increasing product value, we are dedicated to creating new product features and refining production technology. In particular, the 38nm DRAM will enter mass production soon. Winbond's product lines offer the best solutions for the memory required by the Internet of Things, which needs IT security and low energy consumption.

In 2016, our capital expenditure on memory product lines amounted to NT$4.8 billion. The monthly output of our fabrication plant is currently over 40,000 pieces of 12-inch wafer. Since electronic end products and applications are demanding for more and higher density of memory, we hope to continue to take a prudent approach to expanding production capacity as we endeavor to meet customer demands with ample capacity.

Future Outlook

While there have been several times of business cycles in memory industry in the past, Winbond is starting to deliver satisfactory results since we shifted our focus to the niche memory market. The company had not only eliminated the cumulative loss in 2015, but also distributed dividends for the first time in eight years in 2016.

Looking to the future and facing a world of changing political and economic conditions, we will continue to grow up by developing advanced technologies as well as high-quality and high-performance products to position ourselves for coming technology trends such as smart network, big data, and artificial intelligence (AI). A diverse product portfolio, coupled with a variety of technological platforms and the core competencies of high-performance factories, allows us to devote our efforts to innovative product development and environmentally friendly designs for the world of Internet of Things, and IT security. We hope to fuel business growth with higher value products and create stable long-term returns for our shareholders, clients, and employees.

On behalf of the management team at Winbond, I would like to thank our shareholders for your support and encouragement.

Chairman: Arthur Yu-Cheng Chiao President: Tung-Yi Chan CAO: Jessica Chiou-Jii Huang

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

The Board of Directors and Shareholders Winbond Electronics Corporation

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Winbond Electronics Corporation (the Company) and its subsidiaries (collectively referred as the Group), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Group as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of the most significance in our audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Impairment of Accounts Receivable

The recognition of allowance for doubtful accounts is subject to management’s estimation of recoverable amount of past due and uncollectible accounts receivable, and the impairment loss on accounts receivable is influenced by management’s assumptions of customer credit risk. We especially pay attention to material and slow-collecting balances of accounts receivable, and the rationale of impairment loss provisioned by management.

Accounting policies for accounts receivable are set out within Note 4 of the consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 10 of the consolidated financial statements for disclosures of the carrying amounts of accounts receivable.

Our audit procedures in response to impairment of accounts receivable consisted of the following,

  • 28 -

==> picture [525 x 27] intentionally omitted <==

evaluated the rationale of classification and provision rates used on aging report of accounts receivable prepared by management, examined the calculation of the aging report, compared the aging distribution and actual write-offs of accounts receivable of current year with those of prior year, assessed the collectability of outstanding balances of accounts receivable by checking cash collection after balance sheet date, inspected the authorization of customer credit line and reviewed transaction records of ledger book to ensure the validity of internal control of accounts receivable.

Valuation of Inventory

Fluctuating market prices of inventory caused by rapid changes of market demand and technology development may lead to slow-moving or obsolescent loss of inventory. In addition, cost allocation of inventory and the net realization value are subject to management’s judgement and estimation. We especially pay attention to the Group’s inventory held at lower of cost and realization value in conformity with the requirements of IAS 2 and the reasonableness of impairment loss of inventory provisioned by management.

The accounting policy for the valuation of inventory is set out within Note 4 of the consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 12 of the consolidated financial statements for details of the inventory provisions and obsolescence.

Our audit procedures in response to inventory valuation included:

Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, and IFRS, IAS, IFRIC, and SIC endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Group or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group’s financial reporting process.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated financial statements.

As part of an audit in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. We also:

  1. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

  2. Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s internal control.

  3. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by management.

  4. Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Group to cease to continue as a going concern.

  5. 30 -

==> picture [525 x 27] intentionally omitted <==

  1. Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.

  2. Obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision, and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

We also provide those charged with governance with statements that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.

From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016 and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

The engagement partners on the audit resulting in this independent auditors’ report are Ker-Chang Wu and Hung-Bin Yu.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

The Board of Directors and Shareholders Winbond Electronics Corporation

Opinion

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Winbond Electronics Corporation (the Company), which comprise the balance sheets as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.

In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Regulations Governing Auditing and Attestation of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with The Norm of Professional Ethics for Certified Public Accountant of the Republic of China, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Key Audit Matters

Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.

Impairment of Accounts Receivable

The recognition of allowance for doubtful accounts is subject to management’s estimation of recoverable amount of past due and uncollectible accounts receivable, and the impairment loss on accounts receivable is influenced by management’s assumptions of customer credit risk. We especially pay attention to material and slow-collecting balances of accounts receivable, and the rationale of impairment loss provisioned by management.

Accounting policies for accounts receivable are set out within Note 4 of the financial statements. Refer to Note 10 of the financial statements for disclosures of the carrying amounts of accounts receivable.

  • 32 -

==> picture [525 x 27] intentionally omitted <==

Our audit procedures in response to impairment of accounts receivable consisted of the following, evaluated the rationale of classification and provision rates used on aging report of accounts receivable prepared by management, examined the calculation of the aging report, compared the aging distribution and actual write-offs of accounts receivable of current year with those of prior year, assessed the collectability of outstanding balances of accounts receivable by checking cash collection after balance sheet date, inspected the authorization of customer credit line and reviewed transaction records of ledger book to ensure the validity of internal control of accounts receivable.

Valuation of Inventory

Fluctuating market prices of inventory caused by rapid changes of market demand and technology development may lead to slow-moving or obsolescent loss of inventory. In addition, cost allocation of inventory and the net realization value are subject to management’s judgement and estimation. We especially pay attention to the Company’s inventory held at lower of cost and realization value in conformity with the requirements of IAS 2 and the reasonableness of impairment loss of inventory provisioned by management.

The accounting policy for the valuation of inventory is set out within Note 4 of the financial statements. Refer to Note 12 of the financial statements for details of the value of inventory provisions, depreciation, and obsolescence.

Our audit procedures in response to inventory valuation included:

  1. Performed test of details of inventory ledger to verify proper cost allocation of materials, labor costs and overheads to inventory items and ensure no understatement impairment loss caused by improper cost allocation.

  2. Tested the aging report of inventory, compared the inventory provision policy of current year with prior year to analyze the differences, verified the numbers and forecast data used to calculate impairment loss of inventory, compared provisioned loss with actual inventory write-offs, and evaluated the fundamental hypothesis of forecast data to assess the validity of inventory provision policy.

  3. Selected samples of inventory items and compared the latest actual selling prices with the book values to ensure inventory been stated at lower of cost and net realization value.

  4. Compared the year-end quantity of inventory items with the inventory count reports to confirm the existence and completeness of the inventory. Moreover, by attending year-end inventory counting, we assessed the condition of inventory and evaluated the adequacy of inventory provisions for obsolete and damaged goods.
