CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
DECEMBER 31, 2010 AND 2011
For the convenience of readers and for information purpose only, the auditors' report and the accompanying financial statements have been translated into English from the original Chinese version prepared and used in the Republic of China. In the event of any discrepancy between the English version and the original Chinese version or any differences in the interpretation of the two versions, the Chinese-language auditors' report and financial statements shall prevail. The English translation does not include additional disclosures that are required for Chinese-language reports under Guidelines for Securities Issuers' Financial Reporting promulgated by the Securities and Futures Commission of the Republic of China.
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS TRANSLATED FROM CHINESE
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders:
Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income, of changes in stockholders' equity and of cash flows for the years then ended, expressed in thousands of New Taiwan dollars. 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 consolidated subsidiaries which statements reflect total assets of $250,314,287,000 and $245,803,235,000, constituting 18.13% and 14.21% of the consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2010 and 2011, respectively, and total revenues of $409,044,811,000 and $405,044,774,000, constituting 13.65% and 11.73% of the consolidated total operating revenues for the years then ended, respectively. Those statements 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 for these subsidiaries, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the "Rules Governing the Examination of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants" and generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China. Those standards 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 other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, except for the omission of certain additional disclosures relating to the investee companies, as required by Article 13-1 of the Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2010 and 2011, and the results of their operations and their 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.
As described in Note 3, effective January 1, 2011, the Company and subsidiaries adopted the amendments to R.O.C. SFAS No. 34, "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement" and R.O.C. SFAS No. 41, "Operating Segments".

H. Information on new issuance of convertible bonds and common stock by subsidiaries: None.
2) Translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries into New Taiwan Dollars
Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries are translated into New Taiwan dollars using the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Equity accounts are translated at historical rates except for beginning retained earnings, which is carried forward from prior year's balance. Dividends are translated at the rates prevailing at the date of declaration. Profit and loss accounts are translated at weighted-average rates of the year. The resulting translation differences are included in "cumulative translation adjustments" under stockholders' equity.
3) Criteria for classifying assets and liabilities as current or non-current items
A. Assets that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current assets; otherwise they are classified as non-current assets:
1) Assets arising from operating activities that are expected to be realized or consumed, or are intended to be sold within the normal operating cycle;
2) Assets held mainly for trading purposes;
3) Assets that are expected to be realized within twelve months from the balance sheet date; and
4) Cash and cash equivalents, excluding restricted cash and cash equivalents and those that are to be exchanged or used to pay off liabilities more than twelve months after the balance sheet date.
B. Liabilities that meet one of the following criteria are classified as current liabilities; otherwise they are classified as non-current liabilities:
1) Liabilities arising from operating activities that are expected to be paid off within the normal operating cycle;
2) Liabilities arising mainly from trading activities;
3) Liabilities that are to be paid off within twelve months from the balance sheet date; and
4) Liabilities for which the repayment date cannot be extended unconditionally to more than twelve months after the balance sheet date.
4) Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with R.O.C. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as at the date of the financial statements and the amounts of revenues and expenses reported during the period. Actual results could differ from those assumptions and estimates.
5) Foreign currency transactions
A. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are translated into functional currency at the spot exchange rates prevailing at the transaction dates. Exchange gains or losses due to the difference between the exchange rate on the transaction date and the exchange rate on the actual receipt and payment are recognized in current year's profit or loss.
B. Receivables, other monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the spot exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date. Exchange gains or losses are recognized in profit or loss. However, exchange gains or losses on overseas inter-company accounts that are, in nature, deemed long term is accounted for as a reduction in stockholders' equity.
C. When a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognized directly in equity, any exchange component of that gain or loss shall be recognized directly in equity. Conversely, when a gain or loss on a non-monetary item is recognized in profit or loss, any exchange component of that gain or loss shall be recognized in profit or loss. However, non-monetary items that are measured on a historical cost basis are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
6) Cash equivalents
Cash equivalents represent short-term, highly liquid investments which can be readily converted into fixed amount of cash and with a maturity period of less than three months. The statement of cash flows is compiled under the cash and cash equivalents basis.
7) Financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
A. Equity investments are recognized using trade date accounting. Debt instruments, beneficiary certificates and derivative financial instruments are recognized and derecognized using settlement date accounting. All are recognized initially at fair value.
B. These financial instruments are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value, and the gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss. The fair value of listed stocks, OTC stocks, closed-end mutual funds and deposit receipts is based on latest quoted fair prices of the accounting period. The fair value of open-end and balanced mutual funds is based on the net asset value at the balance sheet date.
C. For derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting, if the derivative is an option, then the transaction is recognized at fair value on the trade date, and if the derivatives are not an option, then the transaction is recognized at zero fair value on the trade date.
D. The derivative features (such as call options and put options) embedded in bonds payable issued by the Company are described in Note 2 (20).
8) Available-for-sale financial assets
A. Equity investments are recognized using trade date accounting. Bond investments are recognized and derecognized using settlement date accounting and are recognized initially at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
B. Available-for-sale financial assets are remeasured and stated at fair value, and the gain or loss is recognized in equity. The fair value of listed stocks, OTC stocks, closed-end mutual funds and deposit receipts is based on latest quoted fair prices of the accounting period. The fair value of open-end and balanced mutual funds is based on the net asset value at the balance sheet date.
C. If there is any objective evidence that the financial asset is impaired, the cumulative loss that had been recognized directly in equity shall be transferred from equity to profit or loss. Impairment losses recognized previously in profit or loss for an investment in an equity instrument shall not be reversed through profit or loss, and if, subsequently, the fair value of a debt instrument increases and the increase can be objectively related to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognized in profit or loss, the impairment loss shall be reversed, with the amount of the reversal recognized in profit or loss.
9) Financial assets carried at cost
A. Investment in unquoted equity instruments is recognized using trade date accounting and is recognized initially at its fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset.
B. If there is any objective evidence that the financial asset is impaired; the impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss. Such impairment loss cannot be reversed.
10) Settlement date accounting
If an entity recognizes financial assets using settlement date accounting, any change in the fair value of the asset to be received during the period between the trade date and the settlement date / balance sheet date is not recognized for assets carried at cost or amortized cost. For financial asset or financial liability classified as at fair value through profit or loss, the change in fair value is recognized in profit or loss. For available-for-sale financial assets, the change in fair value is recognized directly in equity.
11) Notes and accounts receivable, other receivables
A. Notes and accounts receivable are claims generated from the sale of goods or services. Other receivables are those receivables arising from transactions other than the sale of goods or services. Notes receivable, accounts receivable and other receivables are recognized initially at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
B. The Group recognizes impairment loss on the financial instruments when there is an objective evidence of impairment. The amount of impairment is the book value less the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted by original effective interest rate. If, subsequently, an event, directly related to impairment, indicates a decrease in impairment, the impairment loss recognized in prior years shall be recovered. The book value of the financial instruments after recovering the impairment shall not exceed the amortized cost that would have been had no impairment been previously recognized.
12) Inventories
The perpetual inventory system is adopted for inventory recognition. Inventories are stated at cost. The cost is determined using the weighted-average method. At the end of period, inventories are evaluated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, and the individual item approach is used in the comparison of cost and net realizable value. The calculation of net realizable value is based on the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, net of estimated costs of completion and estimated selling expenses. As the value of raw materials declines and the cost of finished goods is over the net realizable value, the net realizable value of raw materials is determined based on current replacement cost.
13) Long-term equity investments accounted for under the equity method
A. Long-term equity investments in which the Group holds more than 20% of the investee company's voting shares or has the ability to exercise significant influence on the investee's operational decisions are accounted for under the equity method. The excess of the initial investment cost over the acquired net asset value of the investee attributable to goodwill is no longer amortized from 2006. Retrospective adjustment of the amount of goodwill amortized in previous years is not required. Goodwill is subject to tests of impairment on an annual basis. The excess of acquired net asset value of investee over the initial investment cost is allocated proportionately and applied as a reduction to the book values of identifiable non-current assets, and any remaining amount of such excess after this allocation is credited to extraordinary gains.
B. Long-term investment in which the Group holds more than 50% of the investee company's voting shares or has the ability to control the investee's operational decisions are accounted for under the equity method and included in the consolidated financial statements on a quarterly basis.
C. For foreign investments accounted for under the equity method, the Group's proportionate share of the investee company's cumulative translation adjustment, resulting from translating the foreign investee company's financial statements into New Taiwan Dollars, is recognized by the Group and included as "cumulative translation adjustments" under stockholders' equity.
14) Property, plant and equipment
A. Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost. Interest costs incurred on the loans used to bring the assets to the condition and location necessary for their intended uses are capitalized. Significant servicing or betterments capable of generating future economic benefits are capitalized and depreciated accordingly. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.
B. Depreciation is provided under the straight-line method based on the assets' estimated economic service lives. The useful lives of property, plant and equipment are 3 to 9 years, except for buildings, the useful life of which is 6 to 51 years.
15) Goodwill and other intangible assets
A. The excess of the initial acquisition cost over the fair value of the acquired identifiable tangible and intangible assets is attributable to goodwill.
B. Other intangible assets, mainly customer relationship, are stated at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over 3 years.
16) Deferred charges and other assets
A. The costs of telephone network installation charges, computer software, molding and tools equipment are recorded as deferred charges and amortized over their estimated economic lives on a straight-line basis.
B. Land use rights are stated at cost and amortized over the lease period using the straight-line method.
17) Impairment of non-financial assets
The Group recognizes impairment loss when there is indication that the recoverable amount of an asset is less than its carrying amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of the fair value less costs to sell and value in use. The fair value less costs to sell is the amount obtainable from the sale of the asset in an arm's length transaction after deducting any direct incremental disposal costs. The value in use is the present value of estimated future cash flows to be derived from continuing use of the asset and from its disposal at the end of its useful life. When the impairment no longer exists, the impairment loss recognized in prior years shall be recovered. The recoverable amount of goodwill shall be evaluated periodically. Impairment loss will be recognized whenever there is indication that the recoverable amount of these assets is less than their respective carrying amount. Impairment loss of goodwill recognized in prior years is not recoverable in the following years.
18) Warranty obligation
Warranty obligation is recognized based on the estimated warranty cost per unit and the number of units sold during the period.
19) Pension plan
Under the defined benefit pension plan, net periodic pension costs are recognized in accordance with the actuarial calculations. Net periodic pension costs include service cost, interest cost, and expected return on plan assets, and amortization of unrecognized net transition obligation and gains or losses on plan assets. Unrecognized net transition obligation is amortized on a straight-line basis over 15 years. Under the defined contribution pension plan, net periodic pension costs are recognized as incurred.
20) Bonds payable
For bonds issued with embedded conversion, put, or call option feature after January 1, 2006, the issuer shall bifurcate the issuance price based on the substance of the contractual arrangement on initial recognition, and recognized the elements separately as a financial asset, financial liability, or an equity instrument.
These bonds are accounted for as follows:
A. The difference between the issue price and face value of convertible corporate bonds is accounted for as premium or discount which is required to be amortized over the period from the date of issuance to maturity date using the interest method and is recorded as "interest expense".
B. The value of any derivative features (such as a call option and put option) embedded in the compound financial instrument is recognized as "financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss". These derivative features are subsequently remeasured and stated at fair value on each balance sheet date, and the gain or loss is recognized in "gain or loss on valuation of financial assets or financial liabilities". At the maturity of the redemption period, if the fair value of common stock exceeds the redemption price, the fair value of the put option is recognized as "capital reserve"; however, if the fair value of common stock is lower than the redemption price, the fair value of the put option is recognized as "gain or loss".
C. A conversion right embedded in the bonds issued by the Company, which is convertible to an equity instrument, is recognized in "capital reserve from stock conversion option". When a bondholder exercises his/her conversion rights, the liability component of the bonds (including corporate bonds and embedded derivatives) shall be revalued at fair value on the conversion date, and the resulting difference shall be recognized as "gain or loss" in the current period. The book value of the common stock issued due to the conversion shall be based on the adjusted book value of the above-mentioned liability component plus the book value of the stock conversion option.
D. Costs incurred on issuance of convertible bonds are proportionately charged to the liabilities and equities of the underlying instruments based on initial recognition amount.
E. In the event that the bondholders may exercise put options within the following year, the underlying bonds payable shall be reclassified to current liabilities. The bonds payable whose put options are unexercised during the exercisable period shall be reclassified to non-current liabilities.
21) Income tax
A. Income tax expense is provided based on accounting income after adjusting for permanent differences. The provision for income tax includes deferred income tax for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in different periods for financial or tax reporting purposes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using enacted tax rates in effect for the year(s) in which the differences are expected to reverse. Valuation allowance on deferred income tax assets is recognized to the extent that it is more likely than not that the income tax benefits will not be realized. Over or under provision of income tax from the previous years is recorded as adjustment to the current year's income tax expense. In accordance with the ROC Income Tax Law, the company's undistributed income is subject to an additional 10% corporate income tax. The tax is charged to income tax expense after the appropriation of earnings is approved by the stockholders in the following year.
B. Income tax credits are provided for in accordance with R.O.C. SFAS No. 12, "Accounting for Income Tax Credits". Income tax credits arising from acquisitions of equipment or technology, expenditures for research and development, training and development of employees and investments in qualified stocks are charged to deferred income tax assets and credited to income tax expense in the period the related expenditures are incurred.
C. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the Income Basic Tax Act (the "Act"). Under the Act, the income tax payable shall be the higher of the basic tax and the regular income tax in accordance with the Income Tax Law and other relevant laws.
D. As a result of the amendment of the Income Tax Law, the Company recalculated its deferred tax assets and liabilities and recorded the resulting difference in the current year's income tax benefit or expense.
22) Government grants
In accordance with R.O.C. SFAS No. 29, "Government Grants", government grants related to assets are recognized as deferred income; for depreciable assets, it is recognized as income over the useful life period of the asset in proportion to which depreciation expense on those assets is recognized. For non-depreciable assets that require the fulfillment of certain obligations, it would then be recognized as income over the periods that bear the cost of meeting the obligations. If the government grant relates to receiving financial consideration, it is recognized as income when earned, or as deferred income (shown as "other liabilities") and recognized in periods over which the grant will be earned.
23) Treasury stock
A. When shares are bought back by the Company, the treasury stock is accounted for as a deduction of the equity.
B. Any excess of the proceeds over the cost of the treasury stock reissued is recognized as an increase in additional paid-in capital from the treasury stock transaction and if the proceeds are less than the cost, the deficit is charged to the additional paid-in capital account. Should the paid-in capital in excess of par value of common stock balance be insufficient to absorb the deficit, the balance is charged to retained earnings.
C. Treasury stock cost is determined using the weighted-average cost method.
D. The Company's common stock owned by its subsidiaries is treated as treasury stock.
24) Share-based payment - employee compensation plan
Based on the employee stock options and the share-based payment agreements, the Company shall measure the services received during the vesting period by reference to the fair value of the equity instruments granted and account for those amounts as payroll expenses during that period.
25) Employees' bonuses and directors' and supervisors' remuneration
Effective January 1, 2008, pursuant to EITF 96-052 of the Accounting Research and Development Foundation, R.O.C., dated March 16, 2007, "Accounting for Employees' Bonuses and Directors' and Supervisors' Remuneration", the costs of employees' bonuses and directors' and supervisors' remuneration are accounted for as expenses and liabilities, provided that such recognition is required under legal or constructive obligation and the amounts can be estimated reasonably. However, if the accrued amounts for employees' bonuses and directors' and supervisors' remuneration are significantly different from the actual distributed amounts resolved by the stockholders at their annual stockholders' meeting subsequently, the differences shall be recognized as gain or loss in the following year. In addition, according to EITF 97-127 of the Accounting Research and Development Foundation, R.O.C., dated March 31, 2008, "Criteria for Listed Companies in Calculating the Number of Shares of Employees' Stock Bonus", the Company calculates the number of shares of employees' stock bonus based on the closing price of the Company's common stock at the previous day of the stockholders' meeting held in the year following the financial reporting year, after taking into account the effects of ex-rights and ex-dividends.
26) Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by taking into account the potentially dilutive securities which are assumed to have been converted to common stock at the beginning of the period.
27) Revenues and expenses
Revenues are recognized when the earning process is substantially completed and are realized or realizable. Related costs are recognized to match the timing of revenue recognition. Expenses, including research and development costs, are recognized as incurred.
28) Operating segments
Operating segments are reported in a manner consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. The chief operating decision-maker is responsible for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments.
In accordance with R.O.C. SFAS No. 41, "Operating Segments", segment information is disclosed in the consolidated financial statements rather than in the separate financial statements of the Company.
3. CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES
1) Notes and accounts receivable, other receivables
Effective January 1, 2011, the Group adopted the amendments of R.O.C. SFAS No. 34, "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement". The Group recognizes impairment loss on notes receivable, accounts receivable and other receivables when there is an objective evidence of impairment. As a result of the adoption of the amended SFAS No. 34, the Group's consolidated net income increased by $982,020 and consolidated earnings per share increased by $0.09 (in dollars) for the year ended December 31, 2011.
2) Operating segments
Effective January 1, 2011, the Group adopted the newly issued R.O.C. SFAS No. 41, "Operating Segments" to replace the original R.O.C. SFAS No. 20, "Segment Reporting". In accordance with such standard, the Group has re-prepared the segment information for 2010 upon the first adoption of R.O.C. SFAS No. 41. This change in accounting principle had no significant effect on net income and earnings per common share for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010.

The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair values of the above financial instruments are summarized below:
A. For short-term instruments, the fair values were determined based on their carrying values because of the short maturities of the instruments. This method was applied to cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts receivable, other receivables, short-term loans, notes and accounts payable, accrued expenses, current portion of long-term liabilities, other payables and other current liabilities.
B. For Open-ended funds, the fair values were determined based on the funds' net assets at December 31, 2010 and 2011.
C. Available-for-sale financial assets are regarded as quoted in an active market if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker industry group, pricing service or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm's-length basis. If the market for a financial instrument is not active, an entity establishes fair value by using a valuation technique. The fair values of available-for-sale financial assets are based on the quotation in the active markets as of December 31, 2010 and 2011.
D. As financial assets carried at cost are not quoted in an active market and their fair value cannot be measured reliably, they are measured at cost.
E. The fair value of refundable deposits is based on the present value of expected future cash inflow, and the discount rate is based on the fixed rate of the one year time deposit given by the Post Office as of December 31, 2010 and 2011.
F. The fair value of convertible bonds issued after December 31, 2005 is based on the present value of expected cash flow amount. The discount rate is the effective interest rate of convertible bonds in the current market, whose contractual terms are similar to those of convertible bonds issued by the Company.
G. The fair values of derivative financial instruments which include unrealized gain or loss on unsettled contracts were determined based on the amounts to be received or paid assuming that the contracts were settled as of the reporting date.
H. The fair value of guarantees was based on the contract amounts.
3) Credit risk of off-balance sheet financial instruments
Please see Note 5. 2) H.
4) Financial risk control
A. The Group employs a comprehensive risk management and control system to clearly identify, measure, and control the various kinds of financial risk it faces, including market risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, and cash flow risk. Except for market risk, which is controlled by outside factors, the remainder of the foregoing types of risk can be controlled internally or removed from business processes. Therefore, the goal in managing each of these risks is to reduce them to zero.
As for market risk, the goal is to optimize its overall position through strict recommendation, execution and audit processes, and proper consideration of a) long-term trends in the external economic/financial environment, b) internal operating conditions, and c) the actual effects of market fluctuations.
B. The risk management and control system of the Group is administered within a framework of stratified responsibility:
(1) The board of directors formulates and approves the procedures; the senior officers designated by
the board make regular and unscheduled assessments of management procedures,
organizational structure, transaction flows, and whether there are any abnormal circumstances;
(2) The legal department reviews and examines transaction agreements;
(3) The finance department makes recommendations with regard to transactions and is responsible
for carrying them out;
(4) The accounting department manages the accounts;
(5) The audit department undertakes audits.
Under this framework, with its strict adherence to proper segregation of duties and adequate internal control procedures, the Group seeks to minimize the potential adverse effects on the Group's financial performance.
5) Material financial risk information
A. Market risk
(1) Foreign exchange risk:
The Group's major purchase and sale transactions are conducted in USD. The fair value changes along with the foreign exchange rate fluctuations. However, the amounts and periods of the Group's accounts receivable and accounts payable are roughly equivalent, so the market risk could mostly be offset. When temporary gap rises, the Group would enter into the forward contract to hedge the risk. Accordingly, the Group expects no material risk as a whole.
(2) Equity price risk:
The Group is exposed to equity securities price risk because of investments held by the Group and classified on the consolidated balance sheet either as available-for-sale or at fair value through profit or loss. However, the Group expects no significant securities price risk.
(3) Futures market risk:
The Group is exposed to price risk because of investments in futures market instruments, which have fair value in the active market. The Group sets limits to control the transaction volume and the stop-loss amount of derivatives to reduce its futures market risk. As a result, there is no significant future market risk.
(4) Interest rate risk:
The long-term bonds issued by the Group all have fixed interest rates, so there is no interest rate risk.
(5) Stock price risk:
The domestic convertible bonds issued by the Company are compound instruments, which include the conversion rights, call option, put option. Except that the fair value of the bonds would be changed due to changes in market interest rate, their fair value is mainly subject to the changes in the Company's stock price. The Company could exercise the call option to mitigate the stock price risk adequately.
(6) Certain transactions of the Group involve non-functional currencies which are exposed to exchange rate fluctuations. The information on foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities which are significantly affected by exchange rate fluctuation is as follows:

YEN : RMB | 21,161,314 | 0.0813 | 23,475,230 | 0.0812 |
B. Credit risk
(1) Receivables:
With respect to receivables of the Group, most of the debtors are well-known international companies with very good credit standing. Moreover, the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts is assessed regularly, so there is no material credit risk.
(2) Financial market:
i. The long-term exchange rate and futures transactions entered into by the Group are done with
financial institutions with very good credit standing. Consequently, the likelihood that the credit risk would occur is low.
ii. Convertible bonds payable of the Company were issued on the primary market, so that the Company is not exposed to credit risk that may arise from counterparties on the secondary market.
(3) Asset transactions:
The Group has investments in available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets that are measured at cost. Although the potential for credit risk does exist, there is an active market for available-for-sale financial assets, and for financial assets measured at cost, the Group performs impairment testing regularly. Moreover, the Group evaluated the counterparties' credit standing when it entered into the transaction. Although the potential for credit risk does exist, the Group does not expect material credit risk accordingly.
C. Liquidity risk
(1) Receivables:
As for receivables of the Group, the main debtors are well-known international companies with very good credit standing. There are no receivables overdue or with maturities over one year. Therefore, there is no material liquidity risk.
(2) Financial assets:
i. For available-for-sale financial assets held by the Group, there is an active market that allows these investments to be readily converted into certain amount of cash approximate to their fair values. The liquidity risk exposure is low.
ii. As for financial assets measured at cost, the liquidity risk is high as there is no active market. However, since the shareholding percentages are relatively low, they do not constitute major investments. Therefore, no material liquidity risk is expected.
(3) Foreign exchange transactions:
For forward foreign exchange transactions entered into by the Group, the targets of the transactions are all currencies traded on international foreign exchange markets with high trading volumes and a large number of traders bidding. Trading is active with high liquidity. Therefore, no material liquidity risk is expected.
(4) Futures transactions:
For futures transactions entered into by the Group, orders are placed on future exchanges in New York, Chicago or London. The numbers of available future targets and international market participants are adequate to facilitate easy entry and exit. Therefore, no material liquidity risk is expected.
(5) Working capital:
The Group has good operating and credit conditions and has sufficient working capital, so it expects no significant liquidity risk arising from insufficient capital to meet contract obligations.
(6) Convertible bonds:
(a)Overseas convertible bonds payable
The Company issued overseas convertible bonds in the amount of US$1 billion on October 12, 2010. The bonds will mature on October 12, 2013. The bondholders have no put options in the bonds. The Company expects no significant liquidity risk.
D. Cash flow risk from movements in interest rates
(1) Long-term liabilities:
i. The Group does not have long-term financial assets and liabilities that are affected by interest rate changes. Therefore, there should be no material cash flow risk from movements in interest rates.
ii. As to the domestic bonds payable issued by the Company, there should be no material cash flow risk from movements in interest rates due to the zero interest rate on the bond.
iii.Although the Company's long-term loans bear short-term-floating-interest rate, current short-term interest rate is much lower than long-term interest rate and is not possible to rise significantly in the near future; thus, the Company expects no significant cash flow risk would arise.
(2) Foreign exchange transactions:
The forward foreign currency transactions entered into by the Group are for the purpose of hedging against short-term gaps of the net positions of foreign currency assets and liabilities. As such, the amounts of the transactions are immaterial and their duration is short. Moreover, because of the equivalent foreign currency cash outflows and inflows, the Group expects no significant funding demand. Therefore, no material cash flow risk is expected from movements in interest rates.
(3) Financial assets:
As the investments of the Group are not interest-rate type products, there is no cash flow risk from movements in interest rates.

13. DISCLOSURES RELATING TO THE ADOPTION OF IFRSs
Pursuant to the regulations of the Financial Supervisory Commission, Executive Yuan, R.O.C., effective January 1, 2013, a public company whose stock is listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporation or traded in the GreTai Securities Market should prepare financial statements in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRSs"), International Accounting Standards ("IASs"), and relevant interpretations and interpretative bulletins that are ratified by the Financial Supervisory Commission.
The Company discloses the following information in advance prior to the adoption of IFRSs under the requirements of Jin-Guan-Zheng-Shen-Zi Order No. 0990004943 of the Financial Supervisory Commission, dated February 2, 2010:
Major contents and status of execution of the Company's plan for IFRSs adoption:
A. The Company has formed an IFRSs group, headed by the Company's general manager, which is responsible for setting up a plan relative to the Company's transition to IFRSs. The major contents and status of execution of this plan are outlined below:
Working Items for IFRSs Adoption | Status of Execution |
a. Formation of an IFRSs group | Completed |
b. Setting up a plan relative to the Company's transition to IFRSs | Completed |
c. Identification of the differences between current accounting policies and IFRSs | Completed |
d. Identification of consolidated entities under the IFRSs framework | Completed |
e. Evaluation of the impact of each exemption and option on the Company under IFRS 1 - First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards | Completed |
f. Evaluation of needed information system adjustments | Completed |
g. Evaluation of needed internal control adjustments | Completed |
h. Establish IFRSs accounting policies | Completed |
i. Selection of exemptions and options available under IFRS 1 - First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards | Completed |
j. Preparation of statement of financial position on the date of transition to IFRSs | In process |
k. Preparation of IFRSs comparative financial information for 2012 | In process |
l. Completion of relevant internal control (including financial reporting process and relevant information system) adjustments | In process |
B. Material differences that may arise between current accounting policies used in the preparation of financial statements and IFRSs and "Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers" that will be used in the preparation of financial statements in the future:
The Company uses the IFRSs already ratified currently by the Financial Supervisory Commission and the "Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers" that will be applied in 2013 as the basis for evaluation of material differences in accounting policies as mentioned above. However, the Company's current evaluation results may be different from the actual differences that may arise when new issuances of or amendments to IFRSs are subsequently ratified by the Financial Supervisory Commission or relevant interpretations or amendments to the "Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers" come in the future.
Material differences identified by the Company that may arise between current accounting policies used in the preparation of financial statements and IFRSs and "Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers" that will be used in the preparation of financial statements in the future are set forth below:
1. Financial assets: equity instruments
In accordance with the amended "Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements by Securities Issuers", dated July 7, 2011, unlisted stocks and emerging stocks held by the Company should be measured at cost and recognized in "Financial assets carried at cost". However, in accordance with IAS 39, "Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement", investments in equity instruments without an active market but with reliable fair value measurement (i.e. the variability of the estimation interval of reasonable fair values of such equity instruments is insignificant, or the probability for these estimates can be made reliably) should be measured at fair value.
2. Financial instruments: Presentation
In accordance with current accounting standards in R.O.C., the conversion price of convertible bonds overseas should be converted to an agreed conversion price in New Taiwan dollars with a fixed exchange rate applicable on conversion of bonds. The conversion rights which are converted to a fixed amount of common shares should be classified as equity instruments. However, in accordance with IAS 32, "Financial Instruments: Presentation", the conversion rights which do not meet the criteria of equity instruments should be classified as financial liabilities.
3. Business combinations
(i) The measurement date for the equity stock issued in a business combination is the announcement date of the combination agreement in accordance with current accounting standards in R.O.C. and is the acquisition date in accordance with IFRS 3, "Business Combinations".
(ii) In accordance with current accounting standards in R.O.C., when the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired exceeds the acquisition cost, the difference should be assigned to non-current assets acquired proportionate to their respective fair values. If the book values of those non-current assets are reduced to zero, the remaining excess should be recorded as extraordinary gains. However, in accordance with IFRS 3, "Business Combinations", the difference should be directly recognized in profit or loss.
(iii) In accordance with current accounting standards in R.O.C., the minority interest on the consolidated financial statements should be measured based on the book value of the acquired corporation. In accordance with IFRS 3, "Business Combinations", the non-controlling interest in the acquired corporation should be measured at fair value (or at the non-controlling interest's proportionate share of the acquired corporation's identifiable net assets).
(iv) In accordance with current accounting standards in R.O.C., if the business combination occurred before December 31, 2007, the acquiring corporation should use pooling of interest method. However, in accordance with IFRS 3, "Business Combinations", the acquiring corporation should adopt purchase method.
4. Consolidated financial statements
In accordance with current accounting standards in R.O.C., in case the parent company changes its share ownership of the subsidiary and loses control over the subsidiary, any investment retained in the former subsidiary is measured at the book value multiplied by the residual share ownership ratio at the date when control is lost. In accordance with IAS 27, "Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements", any investment retained in the former subsidiary should be recognized at its fair value at the date when control is lost.
5. Investments in long-term equity investments accounted for under equity method
In accordance with current accounting standards in R.O.C., if an investor company holds less than 20% of the investee company's voting shares without losing significant influence over an investee company, the investments should be accounted for under equity method. In accordance with IAS 28, "Investments in Associates", when an investment ceases to be an associate, the investment should be reclassified as "Available-for-sale financial assets" and measured at its fair value at the date when it ceases to be an associate.
6. Investment property
In accordance with current accounting standards in R.O.C., the Company's property that is leased to others is presented in 'Other assets' account. In accordance with IAS 40, "Investment Property", property that meets the definition of investment property is classified and accounted for as 'Investment property'.
7. Pensions
(i) The discount rate used to calculate pensions shall be determined with reference to the factors specified in R.O.C. SFAS 18, paragraph 23. However, IAS 19, "Employee Benefits", requires an entity to determine the rate used to discount employee benefits with reference to market yields on high quality corporate bonds that match the currency at the end day of the reporting period and duration of its pension plan; when there is no deep market in corporate bonds, an entity is required to use market yields on government bonds (at the end day of the reporting period) instead.
(ii) In accordance with current accounting standards in R.O.C., the unrecognized transitional net benefit obligation should be amortized on a straight-line basis over the average remaining service period of employees still in service and expected to receive benefits. However, as this is the Company's first-time adoption of IFRSs, the transition provisions of IAS 19, "Employee Benefits", do not apply to the Company. Accordingly, there is no unrecognized transitional net benefit obligation.
(iii) In accordance with current accounting standards in R.O.C., actuarial pension gain or loss of the Company is recognized in net pension cost of current period using the 'corridor' method. However, IAS 19, "Employee Benefits", requires that actuarial pension gain or loss should be recognized immediately in other comprehensive income.
8. Employee benefits
The current accounting standards in R.O.C. do not specify the rules on the cost recognition for accumulated unused compensated absences. The Company recognizes such costs as expenses upon actual payment. However, IAS 19, "Employee Benefits", requires that the costs of accumulated unused compensated absences should be accrued as expenses at the end of the reporting period.
9. Share-based payment
The employee stock options granted before December 31, 2007 and compensation cost of treasury stock transferred to employees and cash capital increase reserved for employee preemption incurred before December 31, 2007 was not recognized as an expense by the Company. However, according to IFRS 2, "Share-based Payment", the cost of the share-based payment arrangements stated above should be expensed at the fair value of the equity instruments over the vesting period.
10. Income taxes
In accordance with current accounting standards in R.O.C., a deferred tax asset or liability should, according to the classification of its related asset or liability, be classified as current or noncurrent. However, a deferred tax asset or liability that is not related to an asset or liability for financial reporting should be classified as current or noncurrent according to the expected period to realize or settle a deferred tax asset or liability. However, under IAS 1, "Presentation of Financial Statements", an entity should not classify a deferred tax asset or liability as current.
Some of the above differences may not have a material effect on the Company in transition to IFRSs due to the exemption rules in IFRS 1, "First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards", adopted by the Company.
