Dynamic Electronics Co., Ltd. 2016 Business Report
Due to the impacts of global economic slowdown and the raw material prices falling
on the first half of 2016, the global economic did not perform well. In the second
half of 2016, the energy price started to stabilize and the global demand warmed up,
the global economy gradually improved. However, the growth rate was still limited.
With the impact of the adverse environment condition, the performance of Dynamic
in 2016 was unsatisfactory, yet the overall profit of the year reached NT $ 10 million.
In year 2016, the proportion of automotive products that accounted for the revenue
increased from the 16% of year 2015 to 25%.
In the beginning of year 2016, we carried out three turns of home-returning leave
program, so that the production during the Spring Festival was successfully
completed with such arrangement. In the second quarter, the automotive products
continued to grow which showed the silver lining to the off-season, and the third
quarter revenue continued to rise. However, G20 summit was held in Hangzhou in
September, the mainland government tightened the environmental protection
regulation on the neighboring enterprises. To ensure that environmental
standards were met, we put a considerable amount of waste water treatment costs,
and invested more in wastewater treatment to improve its capacity and quality. By
the end of the year the problem has been fully resolved. In addition, Dynamic
Corporate Social Responsibility Report published in 2016 was our third publication
and the first, by introducing integrated reporting framework, to both comply with the
International Integrated Reporting <IR> Framework and the Global Reporting
Initiative (GRI) G4 Guidelines. It created a more comprehensive, more integrated,
more coherent, and more efficient communication platform for Dynamic’s
stakeholders. Furthermore, Dynamic is ranked in the top 20 among all listed
companies in the "Corporate Governance Assessment II" promoted by Financial
Supervisory Commission.
Looking into year 2017, in terms of product strategy, we will continue to deepen our
-5-
efforts in the ongoing automotive electronics products (including high-frequency
radar of ADAS), Netcom products (including car networking), high-end servers,
wearable devices, LED Green products, medical products, etc. In terms of
capacity allocation, Hubei Huangshi new plant is expected to output the first 40
million feet in the third quarter of 2017. At the initial stage, LCD panel will be
accounting for the biggest proportion of the production, but the long-term focus is to
develop Huangshi plant into the main production base of automotive products.

(4) Research and development status in 2016
To respond accordingly to the development of portable and wearable electronic products, trend of 5G high-frequency high-speed interconnection of all things, widespread use in automotive electronics, and the sales growth of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and electric vehicles; to achieve sustainable development and contribution of social responsibility and mission, we have strengthened the company's research and development capabilities by constantly importing new technology and equipment for products of niche market and future in year 2016 besides continuous improvement in quality and process capability. By doing this, we've strengthened the company's core competencies and increased our competitiveness in the industry. Here we summarized our major R&D projects and results in 2016 in the following five points: 1. For high-speed high-frequency low signal loss products, we have
successfully obtained certification of Insertion Loss -0.48dB/in, and succeeded in mass production. We also participated the testing of insertion loss -0.4db/in certification which required by 5G Communication era, the relevant materials and technology requirements of which are under active development.
2. For fine lines and thin products, 2 mil fine lines have been successfully produced massively, 12 any layer high density interconnect products have been produced massively, manufacturing process capability for 10 layer thin board with 24 mil thickness has also been developed and the sample is being certified. The improvement of 1.6 mil extremely fine line producing process is being developed.
3. Rigid-flex board and rotatable products has been successfully produced massively. The material and technology of flex board for high-frequency and ultra-high-resolution screen has successfully passed the sample certification. The process improving testing of the dual lens module product with Ultra flatness requirements is complete. The product is now under sample certification.
4. For automotive and microwave products, passive security products has been under mass production. We have mastered the relevant technology of 24GHz products and 77GHz millimeter wave products for ADAS radar, and the process is set in the development. The sample certification of Satellite Receiver Downstream Products LNB is also completed.
5. For heat sink material, BT material products that used in LED products have been successfully produced massively. We have mastered the
-8-
process technology of thick copper and buried copper technologies that used in twin-lens module of high-end phone and automotive engine control modules, and are developing the samples proactively.
The global economy of year 2017 is expected to continuously stay in the slow-moving growth of the second half of year 2016. However, the US economy is anticipated to steady while the new president's policy will increase the risk of our global trade planning. On the other hand, the economic situation in Europe is stable, but the political situation is encountering risks due to the rise of populism. China's long-term economic growth is slowing down, and the risk of funds that caused by the raised interest rate of the US will remain. In the face of the turbulence and uncertainty of year 2017, regardless adversity or favorable circumstances, Dynamic is committed to learning continuously, having courage to innovate, showing momentum and moving people. We also know that only working together with our partners hand in hand, heart to heart is the way to break through all the obstacles and difficulties and moving towards the goal and mission of sustainable development with the environment and society.
