(With Report of Independent Auditors)

Independent Auditors’ Report

The Board of Directors and Stockholders

Lextar Electronics Corporation:

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Lextar Electronics Corporation and its subsidiaries, which comprise the consolidated statement of financial position as of December 31, 2014 and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements 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 entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Lextar Electronics Corporation and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2014 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board.

Other Matter

The accompanying consolidated statement of financial position of Lextar Electronics Corporation and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013, and the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then ended were not audited, reviewed, or compiled by us and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on them.

IFRS 9, published in July 2014, replaces the existing guidance in IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 includes revised guidance on the classification and measurement of financial instruments, including a new expected credit loss model for calculating impairment on financial assets, and the new general hedge accounting requirements. It also carries forward the guidance on recognition and derecognition of financial instruments from IAS 39.


2.	IFRS 15, Revenue from Contracts with Customers

IFRS 15 establishes a five-step model framework for recognizing revenue that apply to all contracts with customers, and will supersede IAS 18, Revenue, IAS 11, Construction Contracts, and a number of revenue-related interpretations. The core principle in that framework is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to the customer in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company is assessing the potential impact on its financial position and results of operations as a result of the application of IFRS 9 and IFRS 15.


(4)	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are set out as below. The significant accounting policies have been applied consistently to all periods presented in these consolidated financial statements, unless otherwise stated.


(a)	Statement of compliance

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.


(b)	Basis of preparation


1.	The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the following material items in the consolidated statements of financial position:


(i)	Financial instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss (including derivative financial instruments) (note 7);


(ii)	Available-for-sale financial assets measured at fair value (note 8); and


(iii)	Defined benefit asset (liability) is recognized as the fair value the plan assets less the present value of the defined benefit obligation (note 20).


2.	Functional and presentation currency

The functional currency of each individual consolidated entity is determined based on the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. Lextar’s primary activities are denominated in New Taiwan Dollar (“NTD”). Accordingly, NTD is Lextar’s functional currency, which is also the presentation currency of the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

All financial information presented in NTD has been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise noted.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


(c)	Basis of consolidation


1.	Principle of preparation of the consolidated financial statements

The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Profit (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss) applicable to the non-controlling interests in a subsidiary are allocated to the non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

Subsidiaries’ financial statements are adjusted to align the accounting policies with those of the Company.

Changes in the Company’s ownership interests in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. The carrying amounts of the Company’s investment and non-controlling interests are adjusted to reflect the changes in their relative interests in the subsidiary. Any difference between such adjustment and the fair value of the consideration paid or received is recognized directly in equity and attributed to stockholders of Lextar.

Upon the loss of control, the Company derecognizes the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary and non-controlling interests, including other comprehensive income (loss) related to the subsidiary. Any surplus or deficit arising from the loss of control is recognized in profit or loss. The gain or loss is measured as the difference between:


(i)	The aggregate of:


A.	the far value of the consideration received, and


B.	the fair value of any retained non-controlling investment in the former subsidiary at the date when the Company losses control.


(ii)	The aggregate of the carrying amount of the former subsidiary’s assets (including goodwill), liabilities and non-controlling interests at the date when the Company losses control.

(d)	Foreign currencies


1.	Foreign currency transaction

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of the individual entities of the Company at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured in historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the original transaction.


2.	Foreign operations

For the purpose of presenting consolidated financial statements, the assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign operations are translated into NTD using the exchange rates at each reporting date. Income and expenses of foreign operations are translated at the average exchange rates for the period unless the exchange rates fluctuate significantly during the period; in that case, the exchange rates at the dates of the transactions are used. Foreign currency differences are recognized in other comprehensive income within equity, except to the extent that the translation difference is allocated to non-controlling interests.

(e)	Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities

An asset is classified as current when:


1.	The asset expected to realize, or intends to sell or consume, in its normal operating cycle;


2.	The asset primarily held for the purpose of trading;


3.	The asset expected to realize within twelve months after the reporting date; or


4.	Cash and cash equivalent excluding the asset restricted to be exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

All other assets are classified as non-current.

A liability is classified as current when:


1.	The liability expected to settle in its normal operating cycle;


2.	The liability primarily held for the purpose of trading;


3.	The liability is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting date; or


4.	The Company does not have an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date. Terms of a liability that could, at the option of the counterparty, result in its settlement by the issue of equity instruments, do not affect its classification.

All other liabilities are classified as non-current.


(f)	Cash and cash equivalents

Cash comprise cash balances and demand deposits. Cash equivalents comprise short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into known amounts of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in their fair value. Deposits with short-term maturity but not for investments and other purposes and are qualified with the aforementioned criteria are classified as cash equivalent.

(Continued)

LEXTAR ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


(g)	Financial instruments

Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments.


1.	Financial assets

The Company classifies financial assets into the following categories: financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss, receivables and available-for-sale financial assets.


(i)	Financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss

The Company has certain financial assets classified in this category as held-for-trading for the purpose of hedging exposure to foreign exchange and interest rate risks arising from operating and financing activities. When a derivative financial instrument is not effective as a hedge the Company accounts for it as a financial asset or liability measured at fair value through profit or loss. See note 7 for further detail of the Company’s derivative financial instruments.


(ii)	Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either designated as available-for-sale or are not classified as receivables or financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss. Available-for-sale financial assets are recognized initially at fair value, plus any directly attributable transaction cost. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at fair value and changes therein, other than impairment losses, are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented within equity in unrealized gains (losses) on financial instruments. When an investment is derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss in equity is reclassified to profit or loss. A regular way, purchase or sale of financial assets shall be recognized and derecognized, as applicable, using trade date accounting.

Investments in equity instruments that do not have a quoted market price in an active market, and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured, are carried at their cost less any impairment losses.

Cash dividends on equity instruments are recognized in profit or loss on the date that the Company’s right to receive dividends is established. Stock dividends are recorded as an increase in the number of shares held and do not affect investment income. The cost per share is recalculated based on the new total number of shares.

(Continued)

LEXTAR ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


(iii)	Receivables

Receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Receivables comprise trade receivables and other receivables and investment in debt security with no active market. Such assets are recognized initially at fair value, plus any directly attributable transaction costs. Subsequently, receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. If the effect of discounting is immaterial, the short-term receivables are measured at the original amount.


(iv)	Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets not measured at fair value through profit or loss are assessed at each reporting date for indicators of impairment. Financial assets are considered to be impaired if an objective evidence indicates that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of those assets have been negatively impacted.

The objective evidence that an available-for-sale equity security is impaired includes a significant or prolonged decline in its fair value below its cost. When an available-for-sale equity security is considered to be impaired, cumulative gains or losses previously recognized in other comprehensive income are reclassified to profit or loss. Such impairment losses are not reversed through profit or loss. However, any subsequent recovery in the fair value of an impaired available-for-sale equity security is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in other components of equity.

For receivables, the Company first assesses whether objective evidence of impairment exists that are individually significant. If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has occurred, the amount of impairment loss is assessed individually. For receivables other than those aforementioned, the Company groups those assets and collectively assesses them for impairment. An impairment loss for trade receivables is reflected in an allowance account against the receivables. When it is determined a receivable is uncollectible, it is written off from the allowance account. Any subsequent recovery of receivable previously written off is credited against the allowance account. Changes in the amount of the allowance accounts are recognized in profit or loss.

For equity instruments without a quoted market price in an active market, the objective evidence of impairment includes the investees’ financial information, current operating result, future business plans and relevant industry and public market information. An impairment loss for this kind of equity instruments is reduced from the carrying amount and any impairment loss recognized is not reversed through profit or loss in subsequent periods.

Bad debt expenses and reversal of allowance for doubtful debts for trade receivables are recognized in general and administrative expenses while impairment losses and reversal of impairment for financial assets other than receivables are recognized in other gains and losses.

(Continued)

LEXTAR ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Impairment losses on available-for-sale financial assets are recognized by reclassifying the losses accumulated in the fair value reserve in equity to profit or loss.

If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss on a financial asset measured at amortized cost decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying value of the asset does not exceed its amortized cost before impairment was recognized at the reversal date.

Impairment losses recognized on an available-for-sale equity security are not reversed through profit or loss. Any subsequent recovery in the fair value of an impaired available-for-sale equity security is recognized in other comprehensive income, and accumulated in other equity.

Impairment losses and recoveries of accounts receivable are recognized in profit or loss; and impairment losses and recoveries of other financial assets are recognized in non-operating income and expense.


(v)	De-recognition of financial assets

The Company derecognizes financial assets when the contractual rights of the cash inflow from the asset are terminated, or when the Company transfers substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial assets to another entity.

On de-recognition of a financial asset in its entirety, the difference between the carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received or receivable and any cumulative gain or loss that had been recognized in other comprehensive income is recognized in profit or loss.


2.	Financial liabilities

The Company classifies financial liabilities into the following categories: convertible bonds, financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss and other financial liabilities.

(Continued)

LEXTAR ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


(i)	Convertible bonds

Convertible bonds issued by the Company give bondholders the right to convert bonds into a given number of equity instruments of Lextar at a specific conversion price. The derivatives embedded in the convertible bonds are recognized initially at fair value in financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss. The difference between the par value of the convertible bonds and the fair value of the derivatives is recognized in convertible bonds payable.

Transaction costs that relate to the issue of the convertible bonds are included in the initial carrying amount of the liability component and amortized using the effective interest method.


(ii)	Financial liabilities measured at fair value through profit or loss

The Company designates financial liabilities in this category as held for trading for the purpose of hedging exposure to foreign exchange and interest rate risks arising from operating and financing activities. When a derivative financial instrument is not effective as a hedge the Company accounts for it as a financial asset or liability measured at fair value through profit or loss. See note 7 for further detail of the Company’s derivative financial instruments.

The Company designates financial liabilities, other than the one mentioned above, as measured at fair value through profit or loss at initial recognition. Attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Financial liabilities in this category are subsequently measured at fair value and changes therein, which takes into account any interest expense, are recognized in profit or loss.


(iii)	Other financial liabilities

Financial liabilities not classified as held for trading, or not designated as measured at fair value through profit or loss (including loans and borrowings, trade and other payables), are measured at fair value, plus any directly attributable transaction cost at the time of initial recognition. Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at amortized cost calculated using the effective interest method, except for insignificant recognition of interest expense from short-term borrowings and trade payables. Interest expense not capitalized as an asset cost is recognized in profit or loss.


(iv)	De-recognition of financial liabilities

The Company derecognizes financial liabilities when the contractual obligation has been discharged, cancelled or expired. The difference between the carrying amount and the consideration paid or payable, including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed is recognized in profit or loss.


(v)	Offsetting of financial assets and liabilities

(Continued)

LEXTAR ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company presents financial assets and liabilities on a net basis when the Company has the legally enforceable rights to offset, and intends to settle such financial assets and liabilities on a net basis or to realize the assets and settle the liabilities simultaneously.


3.	Derivative financial instruments

The Company holds derivative financial instruments to hedge its foreign currency and interest rate exposures. Derivatives are recognized initially at fair value, and attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivatives are measured at fair value, and changes therein are recognized in profit or loss.


(h)	Inventories

The cost of inventories includes all necessary expenditures and charges for bringing the inventory to a stable, useable and marketable condition and location. Inventories are recorded at cost, and cost is determined using the weighted-average method. The production overhead is allocated based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. Inventories are measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value for raw materials is based on replacement cost. Net realizable value for finished goods and work in process is calculated based on the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and necessary selling costs.


(i)	Investment in associates

Associates are those entities in which the Company has the power to exercise significant influence, but not control or joint control, over their financial and operating policies. Significant influence is presumed to exist when the Company holds between 20% and 50% of the voting power of an investee.

Investments in associates are accounted for using the equity method and are recognized initially at cost. The cost of the investment includes transaction costs. The carrying amount of the investment in associates includes goodwill, which is arising from the acquisition, less any accumulated impairment losses.

The difference between acquisition cost and fair value of associates’ identifiable assets and liabilities as of the acquisition date is accounted for as goodwill. Goodwill is included in the original investment cost of acquired associates and is not amortized. If the fair value of identified assets and liabilities is in excess of acquisition cost, the remaining excess over acquisition cost is recognized as a gain in profit or loss.

(Continued)

LEXTAR ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Upon the sale of investment in associates, the difference between the selling price and carrying amount of the investment at the date of sale is recognized as a disposal gain or loss. In proportion to the percentage disposed of, other components of equity from the investment resulting from the Company’s proportionate share in the net equity of the investee are recognized in profit or loss.

The consolidated financial statements include the Company’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of associates, after adjustments to align the accounting policies with those of the Company, from the date that significant influence commences until the date that significant influence ceases.

The Company discontinues the use of the equity method from the date when the Company ceases to have significant influence over an associate, and then measures the retained interests at fair value at that date. The difference between the carrying amount of the investment at the date the equity method was discontinued and the fair value of the retained interests along with any proceeds from disposing of a part interest in the associate is recognized in profit or loss. Moreover, the Company accounts for all amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income in relation to that investment on the same basis as would be required if the associate had directly disposed of the related assets or liabilities.

Unrealized profits resulting from the transactions between the Company and associates are eliminated to the extent of the Company’s interest in the associate. Unrealized losses on transactions with associates are eliminated in the same way, except to the extent that the underlying asset is impaired.

When the Company’s share of losses exceeds its interest in an associate, the carrying amount of that interest, including any long-term investments that form part thereof, is reduced to zero, and the recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Company has an legal or contractual obligation, or has made payments on behalf of the investee.


(j)	Property, plant and equipment


1.	Recognition and measurement

Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributed to the acquisition of the asset, any cost directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management, the initial estimate of the costs of dismantling and removing the item and restoring the site on which it is located, and any borrowing cost that is eligible for capitalization. The cost of the software is capitalized as part of the equipment if the purchase of the software is necessary for the equipment to be capable of operating.

(Continued)

LEXTAR ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

When part of an item of property, plant and equipment with a cost that is significant in relation to the total cost of the item and the useful life or the depreciation method of the significant part is different from another significant part of that same item, it is accounted for as a separate item (significant component) of property, plant and equipment.

The gain or loss arising from the disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined as the difference between the net disposal proceeds, if any, and the carrying amount of the item, and is recognized in other gains and losses.


2.	Subsequent cost

Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Company and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. The carrying amount of those parts that are replaced is derecognized to profit or loss. Ongoing repairs and maintenance is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.


3.	Depreciation

Excluding land, depreciation is recognized in profit or loss and provided over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, considering significant components of an individual asset, on a straight-line basis less any residual value. If a component has a useful life that is different from the remainder of that asset, that component is depreciated separately.

Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives unless it is reasonably certain that the Company will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term.

The estimated useful lives of the assets, except for land are as follows:


(i)	Buildings: 35 years


(ii)	Machinery and equipment: 3 ~9 years


(iii)	Other equipment: 1 ~ 6 years

Depreciation methods, useful lives, and residual values are reviewed at each annual reporting date and, if necessary, adjusted as appropriate. Any changes therein are accounted for as changes in accounting estimates.


(k)	Long-term prepaid rent

Long-term prepaid rent is for the use right of land (classified as other noncurrent assets), which is amortized over the shorter of economic useful life or covenant period on a straight-line basis.

(Continued)

LEXTAR ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


(l)	Lease


1.	Lessor

Lease income from operating lease is recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Initial direct costs incurred in negotiating and arranging an operating lease is added to the carrying amount of the leased asset and recognized as an expense over the lease term on the same basis as the lease income.


2.	Lessee

Payments made under operating lease (excluding insurance and maintenance expenses) are recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.


(m)	Intangible assets


1.	Goodwill

Goodwill is recognized when the purchase price exceeds the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Investor-level goodwill is included in the carrying amounts of the equity investments. The impairment losses for the goodwill within the equity-accounted investees are accounted for as deductions of carrying amounts of investments in equity-accounted investees.


2.	Research & development

During the research phase, activities are carried out to obtain and understand new scientific or technical knowledge. Expenditures during this phase are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.

Expenditure arising from development is capitalized as an intangible asset when the Company demonstrates all of the following: (i) the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so that it will be available for use or sale; (ii) its intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; (iii) its ability to use or sell the intangible asset; (iv) the probability that the intangible asset will generate probable future economic benefits; (v) the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development project; and (vi) its ability to measure reliably the expenditure attributable to the intangible asset during its development.

Capitalized development expenditure is measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.


3.	Other intangible assets

(Continued)

LEXTAR ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Technology-related fees, including purchased patents and licenses pursuant to patent licensing agreements, and core technologies acquired in connection with a merger are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses.


4.	Subsequent expenditure

Subsequent expenditure is capitalized only when it increases the future economic benefits embodied in the specific asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, is recognized in profit or loss as incurred.


5.	Amortization

The depreciable amount of an intangible asset is the cost less its residual value. An intangible asset with a finite useful life is amortized over 3 to 12 years using the straight-line method from the date that the asset is made available for use.

Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful life are not amortized but tested for impairment annually. The residual value, amortization period, and amortization method are reviewed at least annually at each annual reporting date, and any changes therein are accounted for as changes in accounting estimates.


(n)	Impairment – non-financial assets

Other than inventories, deferred tax assets and assets arising from employee benefits, non-financial assets are reviewed at the reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. For goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives or that are not yet available for use, are required to be tested for impairment at least annually. When there is an indication of impairment exists for the aforementioned assets, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated. If it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the Company estimates the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit (“CGU”) to which the asset has been allocated to.

In performing an impairment test for the aforementioned assets, the estimated recoverable amount is evaluated in terms of an asset or a CGU. Recoverable amount is defined as the higher of (a) an asset’s or a CGU’s fair value less costs to dispose (if determinable), or (b) its “value in use”, which is defined as the present value of the expected future cash flows generated by the asset or CGU. Any excess of the carrying amount of the asset or its related CGU over its recoverable amount is recognized as an impairment loss. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. Impairment losses recognized in respect of a CGU are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the unit, then the carrying amounts of the other assets in the unit on a pro rata basis.

If there is evidence that the accumulated impairment loss of an asset other than goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives in prior years no longer exists or has diminished, the amount previously recognized as an impairment loss is reversed, and the carrying amount of the asset or CGU is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount. The increase in the carrying amount

(Continued)

LEXTAR ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

shall not exceed the carrying amount (net of depreciation or amortization) had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. The impairment loss recognized on goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives is not reversed.


(o)	Provisions

A provision is recognized for a legal or constructive obligation arising from a past event, if there is probable outflow of resources and the amount can be estimated reliably. Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects the current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognized as interest expense.


(p)	Treasury stock

Repurchased shares are recognized under treasury shares (a contra-equity account) based on their repurchase price (including all directly accountable costs), net of tax. Gains on disposal of treasury shares should be recognized under “capital reserve – treasury share transactions”. Losses on disposal of treasury shares should be offset against existing capital reserves arising from similar types of treasury shares. If there are insufficient capital reserves to be offset against, then such losses should be accounted for under retained earnings. The carrying amount of treasury shares should be calculated using the weighted average of different types of repurchase.

During the cancellation of treasury shares, “capital reserve – share premiums” and “share capital” should be debited proportionately. Gains on cancellation of treasury shares should be recognized under existing capital reserves arising from similar types of treasury shares; Losses on cancellation of treasury shares should be offset against existing capital reserves arising from similar types of treasury shares. If there are insufficient capital reserves to be offset against, then such losses should be accounted for under retained earnings.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


(q)	Revenue recognition


1.	Goods sold

Revenue from the sale of goods in the course of ordinary activities is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of returns, trade discounts and volume rebates. Revenue is recognized when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer, recovery of the consideration is probable, the associated costs and possible return of goods can be estimated reliably, there is no continuing management involvement with the goods, and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. If it is probable that discounts will be granted and the amount can be measured reliably, then the discount is recognized as a reduction of revenue as the sales are recognized.

The timing of the transfers of risks and rewards varies depending on the individual terms of the sales agreement.


2.	Government grants

Government grants without additional conditions are recognized as other income when it is receivable.

Other government grants with additional conditions shall be recognized as deferred income or deduction of book value of government-grant related asset if the Company will fulfill the conditions. If the government grant is to compensate the Company’s expenses, it shall be recognized as other income; if the government grant is to compensate the acquisition cost of asset, it shall be recognized in profit or loss during the useful life of the asset.


(r)	Employee benefits


1.	Defined contribution plans

Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plans are recognized as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods during which services are rendered by employees.


2.	Defined benefit plans

The Company’s net obligation in respect of defined benefit pension plans is calculated separately for each benefit plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in the current and prior periods, discounting that amount and deducting the fair value of any plan assets. Discount rate is determined by reference to the yield rate of Taiwan government bonds at the reporting date. The calculation of defined benefit obligations is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the Projected Unit Credit Method.

Actuarial gains and losses arising from defined benefit plans are recognized in other

comprehensive income in the period in which they occur, and which then are reflected in retained earnings and will not be reclassified to profit or loss.


3.	Short-term employee benefits

Short-term employee benefit obligations, which are due to be settled within twelve months are measured on an undiscounted basis and are expensed as the related service is provided.

(s)	Share-based payment transactions

The compensation cost of employee share-based payment transactions is measured based on the fair value at the date on which they are granted. The compensation cost is recognized, together with a corresponding increase in equity, over the periods in which the performance and/or service conditions are being fulfilled. The cumulative expense recognized for share-based payment transactions at each reporting date reflects the extent to which the vesting period has passed and the Company’s estimate of the quantity of equity instruments that will ultimately vest.


(t)	Borrowing cost

Borrowing costs which can be allocated to the purchasing, constructing and manufacturing of certain asset shall be capitalized during the period required in completing the asset.

2.	Deferred income taxes

Deferred income taxes are recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Deferred tax liabilities are recognized for temporary difference of future taxable income. Deferred income taxes are not recognized for:


(i)	temporary difference on the initial recognition of assets and liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither taxable profit or loss;


(ii)	temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint arrangements to the extent the Company is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and


(iii)	temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.

Deferred tax assets are recognized for unused tax losses, unused tax credits and deductible temporary differences to the extent it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.

Deferred income tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when the reverse, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted tax rate on the reporting date. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only if certain criteria are met.

(v)	Business combination

The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in the acquisition is measured at fair value, as are identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree over the net identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the fair value of the net assets acquired is in excess of the aggregate consideration transferred, after reassessing all of the assets acquired and all of the liabilities assumed being properly identified, the difference is recognized in profit or loss as a gain on bargain purchase.

Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred, except that the costs are related to the issue of debt or equity securities.


(w)	Earnings per share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing profit or loss attributable to the stockholders of Lextar by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Lextar’s convertible bonds and employee stock bonuses are potential common shares. In computing diluted earnings per share, profit or loss attributable to the stockholders of Lextar and the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period are adjusted for the effects of dilutive potential common stock, assuming dilutive share equivalents had been issued. The weighted-average outstanding shares are retroactively adjusted for the effects of stock dividends transferred from retained earnings and capital surplus to common stock.


(x)	Operating segments and Geographic Information

The Company’s chief operating decision maker only receives consolidated financial statements. Consequently, management has determined that the Company has no operating segments as that term is defined in IFRS 8, Segment Information. Geographic net revenue information is based upon the location of customers placing orders. Geographic non-current asset information is based on the physical location of the assets.


(5)	Use of Judgments and Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the accounting policies and the reported amount of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed by management on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected.

(b)	Valuation techniques and assumptions applied in fair value measurement

The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities with standard terms and conditions and traded in active markets are determined with reference to quoted market prices. Except the aforementioned, the fair vales of other financial assets and financial liabilities are measured using the generally accepted pricing models based on discounted cash flow analysis.

Descriptions of the valuation methodologies, including the valuation techniques and the input(s) used in the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities are discussed as follows:

The fair values of financial assets which were publicly traded on active markets were determined with reference to quoted market prices.

For derivative financial instruments such as foreign currency forward and swap contracts, fair values are estimated using industry standard valuation models. These models use market-based observable inputs including interest rate curves, foreign exchange rates, and forward and spot prices for currencies to project fair value.

The refundable deposits and guarantee deposits received are based on carrying amount as there is no fixed maturity.

The fair value of long-term borrowings and bonds payable is estimated based on the present value of future discounted cash flows. The discount rate adopted by the Company is the rate of return of a similar financial instrument in the market; the factors include the debtors’ credit rating and the remaining period for principal repayment, etc.


(c)	Fair value measurements recognized in the consolidated statements of financial position

The Company determines fair value based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability in the principal or most advantageous market. When considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the following fair value hierarchy distinguishes between observable and unobservable inputs, which are categorized in one of the following levels:


(i)	Level 1 inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets accessible to the entity at the measurement date.


(ii)	Level 2 inputs: Other than quoted prices included in Level 1, inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.


(iii)	Level 3 inputs: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The fair value measurement level of an asset or liability within their fair value hierarchy is based

(Continued)

LEXTAR ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company uses valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

(e)	Description of valuation processes for fair value measurements categorized within Level 3

Fair value measurements of assets and liabilities are determined using various valuation techniques, including the discounted cash flows and other valuation models. As deemed necessary, the Company utilizes the assistance of external experts in performing the valuation and the development of such valuation models, which include the analysis and comparison of model valuation results to market transactions and market data. The Company’s management reviews the policy and procedures of fair value measurements annually, or more frequently as deemed necessary. When a fair value measurement involves one or more significant inputs that are unobservable, the Company monitors the valuation process discreetly and examines whether the inputs are used the most relevant market data available.

The Company holds certain non-publicly listed stocks which are not traded in an active market. The Company reviews the current operating and future expected performance of these private companies based on evaluation of the latest available financial statements, as well as changes in the industry and market prospects based on publicly available information. An improvement (decline) in the operating and future expected performance results in a higher (lower) fair value measurement. Generally, changes in the industry and market prospects are directionally consistent with the changes in operating and future performance of the companies.


(31)	Financial Risk Management


(a)	Risk management framework

The managerial officers of related divisions are appointed to review, control, trace and monitor the strategic risks, financial risks and operational risks faced by the Company. The managerial officers report to executive officers the progress of risk controls from time to time and, if necessary, report to the Board of Directors, depending on the extent of impact of risks.


(b)	Financial risk information

Hereinafter discloses information about the Company’s exposure to variable risks, and the goals, policies and procedures of the Company’s risk measurement and risk management. See footnotes to the consolidated financial statements for the quantitative analysis of variable risks.

(Continued)

LEXTAR ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements


(i)	Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Company’s exposures to credit risk are mainly from accounts receivable and cash and cash equivalent investments.

The Company’s potential credit risk is derived primarily from cash in bank, cash equivalent investments and trade receivables. The Company deposits its cash and cash equivalent investments with various reputable financial institutions of high credit quality. The majority of these financial institutions are located in the ROC. The Company also entered into reverse repurchase agreements with securities firms or banks in Taiwan covering government and quasi-government bonds that classified as cash equivalents. There should be no major concerns for the performance capability of trading counterparts. Management performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of these financial institutions and limits the amount of credit exposure with any one institution. Management believes that there is a limited concentration of credit risk in cash and cash equivalent investments.

The majority of the Company’s customers are in high technology industries. Management continuously evaluates and controls the credit quality, credit limit and financial strength of its customers to ensure any overdue receivables are taken necessary procedures. The Company also flexibly makes use of prepayments, accounts receivable factoring and credit insurance as credit enhancement instruments. If necessary, the Company will request collaterals from its customers or invest in credit insurance.

Additionally, on the reporting date, the Company reviews the recoverability of its receivables to provide appropriate valuation allowances. Consequently, management believes there is a limited concentration of its credit risk.

As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the carrying amount of financial assets which represents the maximum amount exposed to credit risk were $10,567,140 thousand and $9,881,151 thousand (Unaudited), respectively.

For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company’s ten largest customers accounted for 70% and 78% (Unaudited). There is no other significant concentration of credit risk.

Refer to note 9 for aging analysis of accounts receivable and the movement in the allowance of doubtful accounts receivable.

(ii)	Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another financial asset due to an economic downturn or unbalanced demand and supply resulting in a significant drop in product prices. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions.

Liquidity risk of the Company is monitored through its corporate treasury department which tracks the development of the actual cash flow position for the Company and uses input from a number of sources in order to forecast the overall liquidity position both on a short and long term basis. Corporate treasury invests surplus cash in money market deposits with appropriate maturities to ensure sufficient liquidity is available to meet liabilities when due, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation.

The following are the contractual maturities of other financial liabilities. The amounts include estimated interest payments (except for short-term borrowings) but exclude the impact of netting agreements.

(Continued)

LEXTAR ELECTRONICS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company is not expecting that the cash flows included in the maturity analysis could occur significantly earlier or at significantly different amounts.

As of December 31, 2014, the Company’s total current assets exceeded its total current liabilities by $8,092,110 thousand. Management believes the Company’s existing unused credit facilities under its existing loan agreements, together with net cash flows expected to be generated from its operating activities, will be sufficient for the Company to fulfill its payment obligations over the next twelve months. Therefore, management believes that the Company does not have significant liquidity risk.


(iii)	Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices, which will affect the Company’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimizing the return.

The Company buys and sells derivatives, and also incurs financial liabilities, in order to manage market risks. All such transactions are executed in accordance with the Company’s handling procedures for conducting derivative transactions, and also monitored by internal audit department.


A.	Currency risk

The Company is exposed to currency risk on foreign currency denominated financial assets and liabilities arising from operating, financing and investing activities such that the Company uses forward exchange contracts to hedge its currency risk. Gains and losses derived from the foreign currency fluctuations on underlying assets and liabilities are likely to offset. However, transactions of derivative financial instruments help minimize the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, but the risk cannot be fully eliminated.

The Company periodically examines portions exposed to currency risks for individual asset and liability denominated in foreign currency and uses forward contracts as hedging instruments to hedge positions exposed to risks. The contracts have maturity dates that do not exceed six months, and do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting.

b.	Sensitivity analysis

The Company’s exposure to foreign currency risk arises from the translation of the foreign currency exchange gains and losses on cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, loans and borrowings and trade and other payables that are denominated in foreign currency.

Depreciation or appreciation of the NTD by 1% against the USD, EUR and the JPY at December 31, 2014 and 2013, while all other variables were remained constant, would have increased or decreased the net profit before tax for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 as follows:



	For the years ended December 31,
	2014			2013 (Unaudited)

1% of depreciation	$	23,724		9,765
1% of appreciation	(23,724		)	(9,765	)


B.	Interest rate risk

The Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates is mainly from floating-rate long-term debt obligations. Any change in interest rates will cause the effective interest rates of long-term borrowings to change and thus cause the future cash flows to fluctuate over time. The Company enters into and designates interest rate swaps as hedges of the variability in cash flows attributable to interest rate risk.

Assuming the amount of floating-rate debts at the end of the reporting period had been outstanding for the entire year and all other variables were remained constant, an increase or a decrease in the interest rate by 0.25% would have resulted in a decrease or an increase in the net profit before tax for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 by $6,820 thousand and $2,437 thousand (Unaudited), respectively.


C.	Equity price risk

See note 8 for disclosure of equity price risk analysis.


(32)	Capital management

Through clear understanding and managing of significant changes in external environment, related industry characteristics, and corporate growth plan, the Company manages its capital to ensure it has sufficient financial resources to maintain proper working capital, to invest in capital expenditures and research and development expenses, to repay debts and to distribute dividends in accordance to its plan.
