New minor risk - Earnings quality The company has large one-off items impacting its financial results. One-off items were 46% of the size of the rest of the company's trailing 12-month earnings before tax. This is considered a minor risk. One-off items are incomes or expenses that the company does not expect to repeat in future periods. Examples include profits from the sale of a business or expenses from a restructuring or legal settlements. If the company's reported statutory earnings include a large proportion of one-off items it means they may be an unreliable indicator of its true business performance as the earnings were skewed by these incomes or expenses. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Earnings have declined by 49% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks High level of debt (55% net debt to equity). Large one-off items impacting financial results. Market cap is less than US$100m (NT$1.83b market cap, or US$56.8m). Reported Earnings • Aug 08

New minor risk - Dividend sustainability The dividend is not well covered by earnings. Dividend per share is over 17x earnings per share. Dividend yield: 1.4% This is considered a minor risk. Companies that pay out too much of their earnings are at risk of having to reduce or cut their dividend in future. If earnings growth slows or earnings fall, then there may not be enough earnings to maintain the same dividend. Or in extreme cases, companies may opt to dig into capital reserves or take on debt to maintain the dividend. However, this risk is mitigated by the fact the dividend is covered by cash flows. For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Interest payments are not well covered by earnings (2.6x net interest cover). Earnings have declined by 46% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Dividend is not well covered by earnings (dividend per share is over 17x earnings per share).

New major risk - Revenue and earnings growth Earnings have declined by 4.5% per year over the past 5 years. This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are declining over an extended period, then in most cases the share price will decline over time unless the company can turn around its fortunes. A trend of falling earnings can be very difficult to turn around. If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risks Debt is not well covered by operating cash flow (1.1% operating cash flow to total debt). Earnings have declined by 4.5% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risk Market cap is less than US$100m (NT$2.26b market cap, or US$69.5m). Announcement • Oct 29
