2003 In Review

2003 Review The Company's 2003 operations were adversely affected during the first half of the year by the SARS outbreak, which caused the passenger market to shrink. EVA Air reacted quickly, reducing flights to cut operating costs. During the second half, the passenger market steadily recovered pre-SARS strength. At the same time, shipping markets boomed, giving air cargo services added momentum and pushing this business to new heights during the second half of the year. EVA Air was proactive, consolidating marketing strategies and maintaining flexibility in fleet deployment, and ultimately, generating higher operating revenue and reaching our financial forecast for 2003. Audited reports show NT$ 65.3 billion in total revenue for 2003, an annual growth rate of 1%, and an increase of NT$800 million over the same period of the previous year (2002). Annual income after tax was NT$1.39 billion, meeting the forecast and delivering positive financial results for fiscal 2003. EVA launched new routes in rapid succession: -Seoul and Taipei-Hanoi were introduced in August and September. Starting in late October 2003, we increased flight frequency to London, Brisbane, Auckland and . We added the first two A330-200s to our fleet in July of last year and used the debut of new aircraft to upgrade services to Tokyo, and Macau. We advanced operating efficiencies by devising a program that correlates service frequency with market demand. And we improved the service network in southern by appointing as our general passenger service agent in the area. EVA elevated air cargo capacity by converting two McDonnell Douglas MD-11 passenger aircraft into freighters. We expanded our cooperative agreement with Shanghai Air on August 6 to better serve that carrier's airfreight customers in Mainland China. And we officially established the EVA Air Cargo Center, in , Belgium to integrate logistics services and better meet demands of escalating shipping opportunities in Europe. Beginning in late October, We opened new EVA freighter routes to Vienna, Frankfurt and Delhi. We demonstrated the power and professionalism of our freight services by introducing a special "16-foot plate" at our Taipei facilities that has enhanced loading technology and accommodated huge pieces of machinery such as a high, wide, 60-ton TFT- LCD Generation 5 system that we transported to Taiwan on one flight. EVA also sponsored air transportation for priceless Egyptian artifacts on loan from the Louvre Museum for a special exhibition in Taipei, once again confirming the reliability of our services and our never-ending commitment to cultural and spiritual growth.

5 The Company

EVA Air was founded in March 1989 as a 100% privately owned Taiwan-based . It is an affiliate of Evergreen Marine Corporation, the world's leading container-shipping line. From its maiden flight on July 1, 1991, EVA Air has grown steadily and as of December 2003, serves 43 major destinations on four continents and in with a fleet of 45 aircraft. The carrier has flourished as it has continued to expand its fleet and operations network. In 1997, after carefully nurturing an environment where faultless service quality and flight safety are the standard, EVA Air became the first airline in Taiwan to achieve official ISO 9002 Certification in three areas at the same time -- passenger, cargo and maintenance operations. Diligently upholding these objectives, EVA Air earned ISO-9001:2000 Certification for all categories of operation in 2001. In addition, EVA has ensured quality, smooth, ongoing operations and reduced costs by investing capital and expertise in airline-related companies, including Evergreen Sky Catering Corporation, Evergreen Air- line Services Corporation, Evergreen Air Cargo Service Corporation, and other selected subsidiaries. Operating strategies developed by the carrier are far-reaching. Company goals place equal importance on its passenger and cargo services, and it works in cooperation with affiliated carriers to maximize mutual efficiencies and effectively compete on a global scale. Its worldwide hub of operations at Chiang Kai-Shek International Airport in Taiwan has proven to be both successful and strategic. EVA Air listed its stock on Taiwan's TAISDAQ Market in October 1999, and moved to the main board, TSE, in September 2001.

1993 EVA Air set new standards and heightened expectations by expanding our network to more than half a dozen destinations and launching service to London, Paris, Seattle, New York, San Francisco, Brisbane, Sidney, and Dubai.

1994 EVA added the greatest number of new aircraft to our fleet during this year, purchasing a total of eight, including three MD-11s, one B747-400, and four B767-200s. We also enlarged our network with new routes to Bali, Fukuoka, and Auckland.

1995 EVA purchased three MD-11 freighters, and began to vigorously develop air cargo operations. We set goals emphasizing passenger and cargo services equally. And we used joint operations and land transportation to successfully extend EVA Cargo services worldwide.

1996 Enhancing the high quality of our operations, EVA applied for ISO-9002 certification. Within the next year, our passenger service, cargo service and aviation maintenance operations were all three granted ISO-9002 international certifications simultaneously. EVA achieved ISO-9001:2000 certification in 2001.

Company's Dividend Policy and Implementation Status

■ Company's Dividend Policy In accordance with Article 26 of EVA's Articles of Incorporation, any earnings from the annual settlement should first be used to offset accumulated deficits from previous years, after deducting all applicable taxes and, second, 10% of the balance should be set aside in a legal reserve; any remainder will be added to undistributed earnings from the prior period for distribution after the board of directors proposes a distribution program with employee bonuses of no less than 1% and director/supervisor compensation that does not exceed 5% of the distributed amount and submits the program at a shareholders' meeting for resolution.

24 Since achieving growth status, the Company has adopted a residual dividen policy to accommodate future operations and expansion, distributing cash dividends and stock dividends alternately with cash dividends that range from 0 to 50% and stock dividends from 100% to 50%. To maintain profitability and govern the impact of stock dividends on its operating performance, the Company may adjust the distribution rate for cash dividends to 100%~50% and stock dividends to 0~50% in accordance with capital status if estimated earnings per share for the current fiscal year are 20% lower than those of the previous year. Dividend Distribution in Current Year It was resolved in the dividend distribution program, which was proposed by the board of directors on March 30, 2004 and passed at the general shareholders' meeting in 2004, that stock dividends will be distributed to shareholders at NT$ 0.4 per share .

■ Impact of Proposed Stock Dividends on Company Operating Results and Earnings Per Share In addition to the balance of cash and stock dividends, the dividend distribution program also accounted for a potential dilution effect that could result from increased capital. The Company's 2003 operating income was expected to reach NT$76,778,361 thousand, up 17.4% compared to the prior year (2003). Current paid-in capital is NT$29,035,346 thousand. Capitalization of profit is estimated at NT$1,121,073 thousand . After capitalization, paid-in capital will amount to NT$30,156,419 thousand. A preliminary calculation of net after-tax income indicates earnings per share of approximately NT$ 0.96 before distribution and NT$ 0.93 after distribution with a 3.13% dilution level.

■ Employee Bonuses and Compensation Paid to Directors and Supervisors Range or Percentage of Employee Bonuses and Compensation Paid to Directors and Supervisors Specified in Article 26 of EVA's Articles of Incorporation: Earnings, if any, from the annual settlement should first offset accumulated deficits for previous years after all applicable taxes are deducted and, second, 10% of the balance should be set aside in a legal reserve; any remainder will be added to undistributed earnings from the prior period for distribution after the board of directors proposes a distribution program with employee bonuses of no less than 1% and director/supervisor compensation that does not exceed 5% of the distributed amount and submits the program at a shareholders' meeting for resolution.

■ Proposed Employee Bonus Plan Approved by Board of Directors Employee Cash Bonus: NT$ 29,001,860 Employee Stock Bonus: 0 Compensation Paid to Directors and Supervisors: NT$ 10,000,000 Number of shares proposed for distribution to employees and the percentage of the shares above capitalized earnings: 0 share; 0%.

Industry Overview

Current Position and Industry Development At year end on December 31, 2003, there were six domestic airlines that are qualified to provide international air transportation services in Taiwan, China Air, EVA Air, Trans Asia Airways, Far Easter Air, UNI Air and Mandarin Air, along with nearly 20, mostly Asia-based foreign carriers. As the spread of SARS was controlled and people learned how to prevent it, the global economy stopped falling and began to recover. Once again, business travel and tourism are significantly growing markets. In addition, the Taiwan electronics industry has more orders and a greater shipping backlog than it had a year ago. These factors contributed to upbeat Q1 2004 forecasts for Taiwan's major airlines. Growing passenger volume and stable ticket prices are expected to lift the market further in the future. Higher disposable income among Taiwanese people and the growing popularity of individual optional travel has made it necessary for airlines to adapt quickly to a changing marketplace. Today's successful airline serves individual travel needs with flexible pricing policies and flight schedules that include charter services to selected destinations. Traditional price and service competition among carriers has been replaced by product design with stable costs and multiple options for diverse needs now taking priority. Though fuel prices recently shot upwards, EVA Air had already taken protective measures to minimize adverse effects. The expectation that Taiwan and the global economy are quickly recovering from the recession in combination with benefits gained by effectively reducing costs, and employing strategies such as system-wide flexibility, performing adjustments in operating strategies whenever needed, and increasing frequency on strong routes such as Taiwan-Japan and Taiwan-Hong Kong set the stage for an optimistic outlook. EVA Air's revenue and profit performance for 2004 are forecast to be significantly better than 2003.

Relationships between Upstream, Midstream and Downstream Industries The goal of the airline business is to provide passenger and cargo transportation services. The operator with superior services that meets customers' needs requires an endless flow of support and coordination from upstream, midstream and downstream industries. The following chart illustrates the relationships between these upstream, midstream and downstream enterprises.

29 The Company

Upstream Midstream Downstream

Aircraft Manufacturing Air Transportation Public

Aircraft Engine Manufacturing Travel Agency

Manufacturing of Ground Industry Petroleum Maintenance Aircraft Catering Sky Service Ground Service Transportation Ground Cargo Forwarders Service Equipment

Express Delivery Leasing Company

■ Upstream Industries Aircraft Manufacturing: The EVA fleet features aircraft from the world's leading commercial aircraft manufacturers, e.g. Boeing Corp., McDonnell Douglas (both merged into Boeing Commercial Airplanes Group in 1997), and Airbus Corp. We can expand and renew our fleet by purchasing or leasing aircraft, whichever is the most advantageous strategy for us in each transaction. As we define various relationships, the aircraft charter service should also be viewed as an upstream industry. Aircraft Engine Manufacturing: The engine powers the aircraft, gives it range and efficiency, and is its most important part. Major engine manufacturers in the world today are Pratt & Whitney, GE and Rolls & Royce. Carriers usually select engines and the suppliers that best fit their own aircraft specifications, budgets, technologies and maintenance standards. Ground Service Equipment Manufacturers: Tractors, trailers and similar implements used in apron operation are classified as ground service equipment. ■ Midstream Industries Petroleum Companies: Fuel expenses account for a significant portion of airline operating costs. Fuel prices are influenced by factors that include changing international conditions, reduced production by petroleum exporting countries, and fluctuating foreign exchange rates. This

30 makes it difficult to control fuel costs. To counter these variables and effectively control its costs, EVA signed long-term contracts with the world's major fuel providers and when appropriate, uses futures instruments to hedge prices. Aircraft Maintenance: Regular and irregular (in an emergency or exceptional situation) inspection and maintenance are crucial to flight safety. When it started operations, the Company made a sizeable investment and established a huge, modern aircraft maintenance hangar, later transformed into Evergreen Aviation Technology Corp (EGAT). EGAT earned multiple FAA certifications and ISO-9002 designations early on. EGAT also entered into an alliance with GE, strengthening its aircraft and engine maintenance technology and giving EVA Air added safety assurance. Sky Catering Industry: Sky catering quality is closely linked to airlines and is a vital part of operations. EVA ensured consistency and quality in our inflight food service by appointing Evergreen Sky Catering Corp. as the supplier in Taipei and by applying the strictest guidelines to selection of sky caterers in other gateways. Ground Service Industry: Part of airport operations, ground service includes a variety of activities such as passenger check-in at airport counters, apron operations (aircraft landing and departure navigation), handling and transportation of luggage, cargo and mail, packing, loading and unloading, and more. We ensure the quality of these operations in Taiwan by appointing Evergreen Air Service Corp. as our service provider and at our international gateways, we only select operators that meet the highest standards. Ground Transportation Service: Further enhancing service quality, EVA Air has appointed Evergreen International Storage & Transport Corp. to transport crew and passenger luggage in Taiwan. ■ Downstream Industries Public: As trade has developed and personal income has risen, the public has gained more opportunities to travel abroad for business and leisure. These members of the public are our target customers. Travel Agencies: We often participate in joint marketing efforts with travel agencies. Travel agencies organize tourism groups that they send to selected destinations aboard chartered flights. Recent demand for charter flights has boomed and the service has proven to be a profitable business opportunity for us. Cargo forwarders: The business model for a cargo forwarder may include import/export transportation, freight transit services and land transportation for airfreight, and customs declarations. Cargo forwarders may also provide ground transportation for shipments, e.g. Federal Express, TNT, etc. In

31 The Company

addition to goods and products, EVA has also transported priceless art collections for important international exhibitions. Such services not only provide profits but also enhance EVA's reputation in the international marketplace and demonstrate our reliability. Express Delivery: The combination of express delivery services via land and air will lead to greater emphasis on convenience and immediacy and a wider array or products in the future.

Product Development Trends ■ Formation of International Strategic Alliances Due to constraints in markets and traffic rights, airlines commonly form strategic alliances in cooperation with other carriers, implementing joint transportation or maintenance services on designated routes to expand service networks and provide more efficient services for travelers. By sharing operating resources and applying the economic benefits of scale, these alliances reduce costs and also facilitate air cargo transportation. Today, four large alliance groups hold 60% of the global market share.

Major Groups One World Sky Team Air Canada AerLingus AeroMexico Air Liberte Air Littoral Air Portugal LOT Polish British Midland Swissair LOT Polish Airlines LanChile SAS Data Source: Star Alliance Web site

■ Liberalization of International and Domestic Aviation Markets Liberalization is the trend for long-term development of the international airline market. The United States is now the most liberalized market. The US government does impose necessary controls concerning free competition and consumer rights protection. Because of out-flow effects of US government policies and powerful influences of market demand, most countries

32 around the world are gradually releasing their limitations on the airline market, too. The market in Taiwan has not yet been fully liberalized nor have its various controls been lifted. The government should eliminate barriers for entrance into this field and allow qualified companies to upgrade and move toward liberalization and internationalization.

■ Continuous Growth of Passenger and Cargo Transportation Markets • According to estimates provided by Airbus Corp., a well-known commercial aircraft manufacturer, the total number of aircraft seats is increasing from 1,852,600 in 1999 to 4,168,700 in 2019, growing 2.25 times. Airbus also forecasts that demand for aircraft will jump from 10,349 in 1999 to 19,173 by 2019 and that the average number of seats installed per aircraft will expand from 179 in 1999 to 217 in 2019. A detailed forecast follows below.

Passenger Aircraft Only End 1999 End 2009 End 2019

World RPKs (billion) 3,080.1 5,100.2 7,985.7 World RPKs (billion) 4,378.5 7,076.9 10,864.2 Number of Aircraft 10,349 14,815 19,173 Number of Installed Seats 1,852,641 2,834,332 4,168,701 Seats Per Aircraft 179 191 217 Seats Per Departure 158 168 190 Average Flight Distance (km) 1,370 1,414 1,444 Block Hour Per Aircraft Per Year 3,502 3,636 3,736

• The pivotal locations of both Northeast and in addition to Taiwan's powerful international trade leadership, high per capita income, and advantageous geographic location will spur a continuous rise in demand for passenger seats and import/export cargo capacity year after year. As anticipated by Airbus, air transportation will grow faster in Asia-Pacific regions and Mainland China than in other areas. In 1999, for example, the average number of seats on each aircraft in this area was 242, according to an analysis of the number of aircraft owned and seat demand, exceeding the world average of 179 seats by 63. Within the next 20 years, the per plane seat average is estimated to rise to 307. This growth creates abundant opportunity for EVA's continuing development of services in the Asia- Pacific region and Mainland China.

• The Boeing Corp. estimates the annual global growth rate for cargo transportation at 6% for the first 20 years of the 21st Century (2000-2020). The Asia-Pacific market, especially cross- strait areas (Taiwan and Mainland China) have tremendous potential for development. A Boeing analysis released in December 2000 forecasts global transportation volume of 470 billion RTKs (Revenue, Ton, Km) in 2019, more than three times the volume in 1999 (137.1 billion RTKs). Boeing's projections show the number of aircraft increasing from 13,670 (1999) to 31,755 (2019).

33 The Company

An International Air Transport Association (IATA) report released in October 2000 shows steady growth in global air transportation for many years to come. From 2000 to 2004, passenger services annually expanded by an average of 5.6% and cargo services by 6.7%. And the industry may grow in spurts due to financial crises similar to those that have beset Asia-Pacific economies in past years. But long-term, the potential for a significantly increased volume of air transportation services is there as it expands in recovering economies accompanied by higher national living standards and greater business and tourism travel opportunities. EVA Air has created a timetable for inaugurating new routes, introducing new destinations and launching new aircraft that is designed to meet this continuous market demand. By using advanced aircraft with unprecedented performance capabilities, our goal will continue to be to provide customers with the most convenient and secure services. It won't be long before the cross-strait cargo market is flourishing now that Taiwan and Mainland China have both entered the WTO. The following tables summarize the IATA forecast.

• Extension of Continuous-Flight Capability and Maximizing Cabin Potential The convenience and speed of air for transporting passengers and cargo is a great incentive to use airplanes to travel and move cargo. The latest aerospace technology makes it possible to whisk loads of passengers and cargo as heavy as 100 tons across continents. But this capability is not enough to meet demand on some busy routes between large metropolitan areas and in regions with booming economies. Aircraft manufacturers will address this demand by building airplanes that are even larger. These huge, new aircraft will serve booming markets as they fly continuous and distant transcontinental routes while passengers enjoy the maximized cabins of the future.

• High Quality Service Business travelers, tourists and shippers are paying more attention to service quality. They are demanding more convenient, comfortable, safe and punctual air transportation

34 services. Airlines can best meet this expectation by maintaining a perfect flight safety record, reliable service, comfortable cabin spaces with excellent facilities, and punctual arrivals and departures, all in addition to providing air transportation. Only companies that meet or exceed these expectations can survive in this fiercely competitive market.

• Integration of Related Airline Service Industries The success of every flight is made possible by the support of other operating divisions such as air catering, ground handling services and apron operations, maintenance and aircraft testing, ground transportation, coordination by travel agencies, and more. These support functions are critical and airlines are seeking partners that share similar operating strategies or who will join in alliances to reinvestment in ventures integrated at different levels of the industry to deliver high quality services, cut operating costs and increase revenue. For example, reinvested in Taoyuan International Airport Service Company Limited (TIAS); China Airlines and Pratt & Whitney jointly set up ACTS; China Airlines formed CPCS with Cathay Pacific Airways; TransAsia Airways established TransAsia Air-Catering Company, etc. As international air transportation markets develop further, airlines will continue to make investments in related industries.

36 2004 outlook The global economic recovery combined with surging cross-strait economic currents and the inevitable release of the ban against travel from Mainland China to Taiwan will create a burgeoning business and tourism travel market. Analyses of growth potential for EVA within this future market shows: ■ America EVA Air now has 41direct passenger flight to the US and Canada every week. During the summer season (March 28-October 30), EVA and Air Canada are raising frequency on the Vancouver route from three to five flights per week through ongoing joint operations. EVA Air also has cooperative relationships with American Airlines, Air Canada, and that give passengers convenient transit service to domestic destinations throughout the US and Canada. To aggressively expand cargo capacity between the West and East Coasts of the US, we will wet-lease an additional MD-11 freighter in 2004. The 37 weekly cargo flights we now have to America serve customers' growing demands for airfreight services between Mainland China and the US and Canada. In August when our third converted MD-11 freighter is ready for use, we will raise our weekly cargo frequency to North America to 39 flights. ■ Europe We added a fifth weekly flight on the Taipei-London route on October 19, 2003 and upgraded the equipment to a luxurious B747 for three of these trips, increasing passenger capacity at the same time and giving more passengers the opportunity to enjoy the convenience of transit service between Europe and destinations throughout Southeast Asia. On March 5, 2004, we introduced a brand-new Airbus A330-200s on our Vienna route, using it for three flights a week of the schedule. EVA began flying 13 freighter trips a week to Europe in March 2004, adding frequency and capacity. Our lift capabilities in this market are further expanded by joint operating alliances with the European leading carriers, British Airways (BA) and Lufthansa Airlines (LH) in Germany. Our quality service and seamless network within the region have made EVA Air the first choice for cargo transport between Taiwan & Europe. This market leadership has been enhanced by our operation of the EVA Cargo Center, Europe in Belgium, officially established on August 18, 2003 and enabling us to serve cargo customers throughout Europe. ■ New Zealand and Australia In addition to its allure as a destination for students and immigrants, Oceania is an attractive tourist destination with tremendous potential for development. After a review of market demand, convenience and operating costs, EVA Air resumed operation of Sydney service on November 20, 2002 and at the same time, retained our joint operating relationship with Qantas Airways. During the 2004 peak summer season, we will serve our Auckland route though a "seat-blocking" code- sharing arrangement on 3-4 flights per week with Air New Zealand. In addition, we will put new A330-200s into service on our Brisbane and Sydney routes by the end of 2004, deploying them as they are delivered.

■ Asia EVA Air enhanced efficiency in Southeast Asia and addressed sluggish demand by evaluating all regional service in the area, keeping profitable flights and suspending unprofitable ones. We cancelled Penang passenger service in March 2004 and concentrated capacity and service on routes to Tokyo, Hong Kong and Macau, selecting these markets for the debut deployment of our innovative new A330-200s. Another of these advanced aircraft will be introduced into service on Osaka trips. To accommodate the increase in Hong Kong frequency from 40 weekly flights to 49, we are redeploying aircraft this summer and will begin serving Phnom Penh with one of our B767s. Asia recently gained recognition as the fastest growing air transportation market in the world. The ICAO projects that in the future, Asia will become the world's largest air transportation market. With Taiwan located at a pivotal point between America and Southeast Asia, EVA Air is developing strategies to make full use of geographic advantages in combination with our seamless services between Asia and America and the unexplored potential of links between the huge markets on either side of the Pacific Ocean. The likelihood of Three Direct Links between Taiwan and Mainland China gives EVA Air tremendous growth potential. As 2002, EVA Air was the only airline flying from Taiwan to Osaka and Fukuoka. Having a joint service agreement with All Nippon Airways, we increased service to two flights per day to Narita International Airport in Tokyo on April 2002. As Tokyo's gateway for international airlines, service to this airport links EVA to more than 40 domestic destinations in Japan. It also makes it easy for passengers to reach downtown Tokyo within approximately 60 minutes by bus via TCAT (Tokyo City Air Terminal), or by Narita Express or Skyliner. We upgraded flights to Hokkaido from charters to scheduled three-times-a-week service on March 30, 2003. Future plans for maximizing EVA Air profits include more charter flights to selected destinations in of Japan from both Taipei and Kaohsiung. EVA Air launched dedicated cargo flight to Osaka on March 5, 2004, extending our freighter reach in Northeast Asia. It is clear that the vigor of the international air transportation market directly relates to global economic strength. As soon as the ban against direct cross-strait flights is lifted, Taiwan, Mainland China and Hong Kong markets will skyrocket, but until then, the restrictive conditions will continue to inhibit air transport industry performance. According to an economic statistic report published by Executive Yuan of the Mainland Affairs Council (Taiwan), approximately 3.66 million Taiwanese people visited Mainland China in 2003. This high volume of travel is due to frequent cross-strait economic activity and points to ongoing growth in passenger volume. The release of the Great Three Direct Links will save these travelers tremendous amounts of time and money, and will lead to a surge in the demand for passenger and cargo transportation across the strait. Competition Niche ■ Excellent Flight Safety Record From the day it was formed, EVA Air has been guided by the 's 36 years of experience in international transportation, and has upheld that legacy by giving passengers

38 convenient, secure and comfortable flights with quality service. We promote flight safety with regular Joint Security Committee and monthly fly safe meetings where staff and crewmembers review all safety-related issues to ensure top awareness of "safety" concepts. Comprehensive Air Safety Investigations conducted by the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Taiwan's Civil Aeronautic Administration (CAA) have ranked EVA Air's safety standards and practices among the best in the airline industry. EVA has upheld that finding by establishing an excellent flight safety record. This exceptional record qualifies EVA for reduced rates on fleet insurance every year, helping to bring down costs and build the company's safety reputation at the same time. ■ New Aircraft, an Advanced Fleet and Worldwide Service Network By the end of 2003, the EVA Air fleet held 45 aircraft averaging 7.15 years in age. To maintain our fleet as one of the most advanced in the industry, retain our competitive edge, and continue to give our customers the most comfortable and reliable flight services available, we began introducing brand-new Airbus A330-200s into our fleet in June 2003. By the end of next year, we will have added a total of 10 A330s and will have begun to start taking delivery of the first of 15 Boeing B777s. We will set a higher industry standard with this fleet of technologically advanced, high performance aircraft. The fleet is the key to our steadily expanding route network. Today, we serve more than 40 major destinations in Europe, America, Asia and Oceania, and have built an efficient, effective service network for passenger and cargo transportation. We are creating the infrastructure and deploying the equipment to not only meet customer needs by providing the best services available, but also to produce greater business opportunities and a better operating environment for the transportation industry as a whole. ■ Professional Management with a Wealth of Experience "A comfortable flight comes with assurance of flight safety." Combining a wealth of experience with a highly trained staff, EVA is dedicated to providing the very best in-flight service. From organizational management and risk management to actively hosting air safety seminars and workshops, EVA aggressively promotes staff and crew awareness of flight safety. We also use an advanced monitoring system to help standardize flight operations and provide a targeted and comprehensive approach to air safety. And we established the Evergreen Aviation Training Center in the days when we were just getting started. The training courses available today include the latest in Aviation Training, Flight Crew Training, Ground Handling Service Training and Maintenance Training. Together, these professional training courses form a framework for our quality services. Advantages and Disadvantages of Future Development and Response Measures ■ Cross-Strait Air Transportation Opportunities The economy and international trade market in Mainland China are growing fast and creating a high demand for air transportation. Numerous airlines from countries all over the world are pursuing the obvious business opportunities. In anticipation of the possibility that the Taiwan government may lift its ban against cross-strait air transportation within the near future, EVA Air is preparing to jump into this market by developing plans for fleet

39 The Company

adjustment, aircraft maintenance and aviation technologies so that we can quickly expand our operating scale. ■ Facing International Competition and Rising to Opportunity In contrast with the giant international carriers, Taiwan's airlines are small and lack experience in international operations. To effectively serve passengers traveling to and from Taiwan, service quality and air transportation networks must be upgraded. Market liberalization will bring stiff competition for Taiwan's carriers. But the rapidly increasing numbers of passengers visiting Taiwan and Taiwanese tourists traveling abroad are obvious targets for future market development. And Taiwan's excellent geographic position makes is an ideal traffic center for the Western Pacific region. ■ Fuel Price Fluctuation Fuel expenses are a big part of the operating costs for air transportation. Fuel price fluctuation has a direct bearing on an airline's operations and profits. Early on, EVA Air adopted successful fuel-hedging strategies, and we have been able to exercise some control over our fuel costs. Technology and R&D ■ Successfully Developed Technology and Products: To adapt and respond to the opportunities presented by the e-Business trend, EVA Air built a "Data Warehouse" and our Internet ticketing services. And on October 1, 2003, EVA Air Cargo introduced our Automated Manifest System (AMS), certified by United States Customs, to streamline and speed service and to strengthen our competitive position within the airfreight market. ■ R&D Programs for the Future EVA Air will seek out and expand cooperative alliances with other airlines, developing joint operations that extend reach and convenience for both passengers and shippers. We are developing plans to invest in airline-related businesses in Mainland China. We have a timetable for retiring aircraft in our fleet and deploying the most advanced new aircraft available. We are engaged in a continuous process of improving pilot and crew training, further improving service quality at the same time. Our implementation of ISO-9001 standards is ongoing. And we look forward to the fulfillment of company wide training programs that will not only benefit the broad scope of our services but also develop professional talents within our staff. Long- and Short-Term Business Development Plans ■ Short Term Plans We will cut operating costs by seeking joint operations opportunities with other carriers. The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has predicted that Asia will become the world's largest air transportation market and offers vast potential. Unfortunately, the SARS crisis and global economic downturn slowed market demand. Anticipating this dramatic and encouraging development, EVA Air has made it a priority to review Asian route development and to explore more cooperative relationships with other airlines that will help reduce costs further.

40 Regularly initiate customer satisfaction surveys to ensure response to needs and expectations, and to uphold our high service quality standards. Implement service quality and flight safety standards system-wide, following ISO-9001 procedures. The EVA Air commitment to flight safety standards and high service quality will not waiver. We have made huge investments in crew training programs and state-of-the-art training facilities. And we have established flight safety as the most important EVA Air training program. This priority and these high standards earned ISO 9001 certification for EVA Air, after we had already been awarded ISO 9002 certification.. ■ Long-Term Plans •Adjust the fleet to meet business development and market demands As the passenger and cargo transportation business flourishes in Taiwan and around the world, EVA Air will adjust the equipment and scale of our fleet so that we can most effectively benefit from future political and economic developments and maximize our benefits from developing business opportunities in Asia. by year end 2003, EVA owned 45 aircraft, including 15 Boeing B747-400s, two Airbus A330-200s, eight Boeing B-767s, a McDonnell Douglas MD-11, a Boeing B-757, three McDonnell Douglas MD-90 passenger aircraft, 11-MD-11freighters, and four all-cargo B747-400s. EVA is adding more A330s in 2004, and in 2005, will begin to introduce a fleet of B-777s in 2005 that will be used to replace aircraft now in use. We will remain in the forefront of our industry with our efficient, modern fleet. • Reinvest in related air transportation industries EVA's efforts to investment in related businesses such as air catering, ground handling, maintenance and air transportation that provide lateral and vertical services is ongoing. By crafting a complete air transportation infrastructure, we can cap operating costs at lower levels, and achieve maximum operating performance. • Work with related tourism industries EVA meets the demand for high-quality tourism services by forming strategic relationships with businesses such as well-known resorts, leading travel agencies, etc, and working together to create products, share resources and in the process, maximize efficiencies. We have also developed our own full-service capabilities to ensure that we are prepared to react to advantageous business opportunities as they arise. • Risk management The international air transportation industry is vulnerable to risks related to numerous variables including weather, international politics, and more. Strong risk management policies and procedures must be in place to ensure that EVA remains in continuous operation in the event of a risk event and that we keep our competitive edge. Risk management measures that are in place, ready for immediate implementation, include insurance for our fleet, passengers and staff, loss prevention strategies, training in loss prevention, security management and risk response.

Auditors’ Report

The Board of Directors EVA Airways Corp.: We have audited the balance sheets of EVA Airways Corp. as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. 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 non-consolidated investee companies. The Company’s investments in these companies as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, were evaluated using the equity method, and the resulting book values of these investments amounted to NT$2,117,640 thousand (US$62,320 thousand) and NT$2,250,331 thousand (US$64,757 thousand), respectively. The resulting investment losses amounted to NT$22,745 thousand (US$660 thousand) and NT$203,339 thousand (US$5,879 thousand) for the years 2003 and 2002, respectively. The financial statements of these companies were audited by other auditors whose reports were furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to these amounts included for the said investee companies, is based solely on the reports of other auditors. We conducted our audits in accordance with Republic of China generally accepted auditing standards and the Republic of China Guidelines for Certified Public Accountants’ Examinations and Reports on Financial Statements. Those standards and guidelines 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 the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors, the financial statements of EVA Airways Corp. referred to in the first paragraph present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of EVA Airways Corp. as of December 31, 2003 and 2002, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with Republic of China generally accepted accounting principles.

February 13, 2004

The accompanying financial statements are intended only to present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows in accordance with the accounting principles and practices generally accepted in the Republic of China and not those of any other jurisdictions. The standards, procedures and practices to audit such financial statements are those generally accepted and applied in the Republic of China.

EVA AIRWAYS CORP. Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2003 and 2002 (amounts not otherwise specified are expressed in thousands of dollars)

(1) Organization and Business Scope

EVA Airways Corp. (the Company) was incorporated on April 7, 1989, as a corporation limited by shares under special permission of the Ministry of Transportation and Communications and under the Company Law of the Republic of China (ROC). The Company commenced operations on July 1, 1991.

(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Company prepared the accompanying financial statements in accordance with the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and ROC generally accepted accounting principles. The major accounting policies and basis of measurement used in preparing the financial statements are summarized below.

(a) Foreign currency transactions and translation

The Company maintains its books in New Taiwan dollars. Transactions negotiated and settled in foreign currencies are recorded in New Taiwan dollars at the exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the balance sheet date are translated into New Taiwan dollars at the exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date, and unrealized exchange gains or losses are reflected in the statement of operations.

For equity investments in foreign subsidiary companies which are accounted for by the equity method, the translation differences resulting from translating foreign financial statements from the functional currency to the reporting currency are reported as cumulative translation adjustments. Cumulative translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders' equity.

(b) US dollar financial statement presentation

Financial statements stated in New Taiwan dollars are translated into US dollars at the exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date, with the exception of stockholders' equity accounts, which are translated at historical rates, and revenues, costs, and expenses, which are translated at the average exchange rates during the

61 Financial Statements

reporting period. Translation differences resulting from translation of the financial statements into US dollars are recorded as cumulative translation adjustments, a separate component of stockholders' equity.

(c) Translation of foreign currency for foreign operating units

The Company regards the aircraft purchased with its own US dollar funds and US dollar loans and operated for international passenger and cargo transportation business as "foreign operating units".

The aircraft and the related US dollar loans at the balance sheet date are translated into New Taiwan dollars at the exchange rates prevailing on the balance sheet date. The translation differences resulting from the translation of the aircraft and the related US dollar loans into New Taiwan dollars at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date and historical rates are reported as cumulative translation adjustments. The aircraft stated in US dollars are depreciated by using the same method and the same useful lives, and the resulting US dollar depreciation amounts are translated into New Taiwan dollars at the current year's average exchange rate. In addition, the translation differences resulting from the translation of the refundable deposits for aircraft leases into New Taiwan dollars at the exchange rate prevailing on the balance sheet date and historical rates are also reported as cumulative translation adjustments.

(d) Sale and leaseback

The Company sold and leased back aircraft under operating lease agreements. The gains on the sales of the aircraft are deferred and amortized using the straight-line method over the lease terms.

(e) Cash and cash equivalents

Cash includes cash on hand, savings and checking deposits, fixed time deposits, cash equivalents, etc. The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

(f) Short-term investments

Short-term investments are stated at the lower of aggregate cost or market value on the balance sheet date. Cost is determined by using the weighted-average method.

(g) Inventories

62 Inventories represent parts and supplies for maintenance of aircraft, and merchandise to sell during flights. Except for merchandise, which is stated at the lower of cost or market value, parts and supplies are stated at cost less allowance for slow-moving and obsolete items. Cost is calculated by the weighted-average method, and market value represents net realizable value.

(h) Long-term equity investments

Long-term equity investments are accounted for by the equity method where the percentage of ownership in an investee is 20% or more. Otherwise, long-term equity investments are accounted for by the cost method.

For a long-term equity investment accounted for by the equity method, where the investment cost is different from the Company's net equity in the investee company upon the investment, the difference is amortized over a period of 5 to 20 years. The period of amortization is assessed and determined on a case-by-case basis.

When an investee issues new shares and the Company fails to subscribe to the new shares in proportion to the Company's ownership percentage in the investee, thus resulting in a change of net equity in the investee, the resulting difference is accounted for as an increase or a decrease in capital surplus (or retained earnings, whenever there is no capital surplus resulting from long-term equity investment to be deducted) and long-term equity investment.

Unrealized transaction gains or losses from inter-company transactions between the Company and its investees accounted for by the equity method are deferred. Unrealized gains or losses derived from transactions involving depreciable or amortizable assets are amortized over the useful lives of the related assets. Gains or losses from other transactions are recognized when realized.

The Company does not prepare consolidated financial statements to include the accounts of its subsidiaries over which the Company has, directly or indirectly, over 50% ownership and has controlling influence over their operating and financial policies and decisions. This is because all such controlled subsidiaries have total assets and operating revenues not exceeding 10% of the Company's non-consolidated total assets and operating revenues and thus are not consolidated in accordance with the ruling of the ROC Securities and Futures Commission (SFC). Under ROC SFC requirements, beginning in 1995, if the combined revenues and total assets of all such unconsolidated subsidiaries exceed 30 percent of the Company's unconsolidated total assets and operating revenues, then each individual subsidiary with total assets or operating revenues greater than 3 percent of the Company's respective unconsolidated amount shall be

63 Financial Statements

consolidated. Such subsidiaries shall be included in the consolidated financial statements thereafter, unless the percentage of the combined total amounts of such subsidiaries decreases to less than 20 percent of the Company's respective unconsolidated amounts. As of December 31, 2003, the Company's non-consolidated subsidiaries included Evergreen Airline Services Corp., Evergreen Aviation Technologies Corp., Evergreen Airways Service (Macau) Ltd., Evergreen Air Cargo Service Corp., and Hsiang-Li Investment Corp..

(i) Property, plant, and equipment, and related depreciation

Property, plant, and equipment are stated at acquisition cost. For construction of buildings and purchase of machinery and equipment, the Company capitalizes related interest costs incurred prior to commencement of the use of such assets and includes such capitalized interest costs in the cost of related assets. Routine repair and maintenance are charged to current operations. Major repairs and maintenance, additions, enhancements and replacements are capitalized in the cost of related assets.

Depreciation of plant and equipment is provided over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term or estimate useful lives using the straight- line method. If the depreciable assets are still in use when the useful lives have expired, such assets can be depreciated by their scrap value over the estimated remaining useful lives. The useful lives of main property, plant and equipment were as follows:

Buildings: 55 years Machinery and equipment: 3~18 years Aircraft: 18 years Rotable parts: 5~18 years

Gains (losses) on disposal of such asset are presented as non-operating income and gains (expenses and losses).

(j) Deferred charges

Deferred charges principally include costs for computer software, leasehold improvements, trademarks, air route development, training of navigators and aircraft maintenance personnel, and "D" check maintenance for aircraft and engines. These costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the shorter of the estimated years in which such assets are economically beneficial to the Company's operation or the lease terms.

64 (k) Derivative financial instruments

All derivatives are to be recognized as assets or liabilities on the balance sheet and measured at fair value. Change in the fair value of derivatives should be recognized either in net income or in deferred debit or credit (a separate component of stockholders' equity), depending on the designated purpose of the derivatives.

(l) Other financial assets

Other financial assets are financial assets other than cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and other receivables, long-term equity investments, and refundable deposits.

(m) Employee retirement plan

The Company has established a retirement plan pursuant to the ROC Labor Standards Law and contributed retirement funds consisting of 10.7% of total salaries from January 2002 to April 2003, and 11.9% of total salaries from May 2003, on a monthly basis to an account maintained by the government-designated institution.

The Company implemented ROC Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 18, "Accounting for Pensions". SFAS No. 18 requires the Company to recognize a minimum pension liability, as of the balance sheet date, equal to the amount by which the actuarial present value of the accumulated benefit obligation exceeds the fair value of the retirement plan's assets, and to recognize net periodic pension costs. The net transition assets or obligations are amortized using the straight-line method over 15 years.

(n) Convertible bonds

The discount or premium on convertible bonds, which is measured as the difference between the issued price and par value, should be amortized over the period from issuance to maturity by using the interest method. The discount or premium on convertible bonds with a put option should be amortized over the period from its issuance date to the expiry date of the put option. The interest-premium of puttable convertible bonds, which is the difference between the specified put price and the par value, should be amortized by using the interest method and recognized as a liability over the period from the issuance date of the bonds to the expiry date of the put option.

When the holder exercises the conversion option, the issuer should write off the unamortized discount or premium, issued costs, interest payable, pay-back interest from

65 Financial Statements

the holder, recognized interest-premium, and par value of the convertible bonds. The difference of the net written-off carrying amount of the convertible bonds over the par value of the common stock exchange certificate should be recognized as additional paid-in capital.

If the holder of convertible bonds with a put option does not exercise the put option by the expiry date, the issuer should amortize the interest premium, which has been recognized as a liability, over the period from the expiry date to the maturity date by using the interest method. However, if the market price of exchangeable common stock is higher than the specified put price of the bond, the issuer should reclassify the interest- premium liability as additional paid-in capital.

(o) Revenue recognition

Passenger ticket sales are recorded as unearned revenue, included in current liabilities, and recognized as revenue when the services are provided.

(p) Income tax

The Company adopted ROC SFAS No. 22, "Accounting for Income Tax". Under this method, the amounts of deferred tax liabilities or assets are recognized for future tax effects attributable to temporary differences, loss carryforwards, and investment tax credits. The measurement of deferred tax assets or liabilities is based on provisions of enacted tax law. A valuation allowance is provided on deferred tax assets that may not be realized in the future.

Deferred income tax assets or liabilities are classified as current or noncurrent based on the classification of the related assets or liabilities. If no assets or liabilities are related, deferred income tax assets or liabilities are classified according to the period of realization.

The tax imputation system was adopted in accordance with the amendment of the ROC Income Tax Law. Under the new system, the Company may retain the earnings after December 31, 1997, by paying a 10% surtax on such undistributed earnings, and the surtax is accounted for as income tax expenses when due.

(q) Earnings per share

The amount of earnings per share is computed by dividing the amount of net income attributable to common stock outstanding for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period.

66 The convertible bonds issued by the Company belong to potential common stock. When computing diluted EPS, potential common shares are included in the denominator if they are dilutive. On the contrary, anti-dilutive potential common shares are ignored in calculating dilutive EPS.

The calculation of diluted EPS is consistent with the calculation of basic EPS while giving the effects of all dilutive potential common shares that were outstanding during the reporting period. When calculating diluted EPS, the net income (or loss) attributable to common stockholders and the weighted-average number of shares outstanding shall be adjusted for the effects of all dilutive potential common shares.

The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding shall be adjusted currently and retroactively for the increase in common shares outstanding from stock issuance (capitalization of retained earnings, additional paid-in capital, or employees' bonus).

(r) Criterion to classify assets and liabilities as current or noncurrent

Current assets are cash and other assets that a business will convert to cash or use up in a relatively short period of time, one year or one operating cycle, whichever is longer. Current liabilities are debts due within one year or one operating cycle, whichever is longer.

On June 18, 2002, the Company's stockholders resolved to make up deficiencies from a special reserve of NT$317,634 thousand (US$9,487 thousand), legal reserve of NT$351,213 thousand (US$11,048 thousand), and capital surplus of NT$1,845,667 thousand (US$66,655 thousand). In addition, the Company transferred retained earnings from capital surplus of NT$155,458 thousand (US$4,968 thousand) arising before 2000 from gains on disposal of equipment.

Furthermore, the Company resolved to issue 220,000 thousand shares of common stock with an issuance price of NT$10.5 per share. The stock issuance was authorized by and registered with the government authorities on December 26, 2002.

(b) Capital surplus, legal reserve, and restrictions on appropriations of earnings

2003 2002 New Taiwan US New Taiwan US dollars dollars dollars dollars Cash subscription in excess of par value of shares $ 1,464,333 52,084 1,464,333 52,084 Gain on disposal of property, plant and equipment of investee company 1,668 53 1,668 53 Additional paid-in capital from bond conversion 253,898 7,374 - - Increase in net equity due to change in percentage of ownership in long-term investments under equity method $ 231,138 6,714 237,374 6,899 Donated assets 648,704 21,225 648,704 21,225 $ 2,599,741 87,450 2,352,079 80,261

The ROC Company Law stipulates that realized capital surplus should not be credited to capital except for making up deficiencies of the Company. The realized capital surplus on the aforementioned includes the premiums on shares issued above their par value and earnings from gifts received. In addition, the transferred capital surplus from issuance of shares or other events in accordance with Article 8 of the ROC Securities and Exchange Law and the ROC Company Law can be credited to capital upon the condition that the aforementioned capital surplus has been approved by and registered with the competent authority in the previous year.

Furthermore, the amount of the capital surplus from the premiums on shares issued above their par value and earnings from gifts received credited to capital should not exceed 10 percent of the amount of paid-in capital in one year.

The ROC Company Law stipulates that the Company must retain 10% of its annual earnings, as defined in the Law, until such retention equals the amount of authorized share capital. This retention is accounted for by transfers to legal reserve, upon approval at the stockholders' meeting. Legal reserve may be used to offset an accumulated deficit and cannot be distributed as cash dividends to stockholders. However, one-half of legal reserve may be converted to share capital when it reaches an amount equal to one-half of issued share capital, upon approval by the Company's stockholders. When the legal reserve reaches over fifty percent of the authorized capital, the Company may distribute the amount in excess as dividends.

81 Financial Statements

The Company's articles of incorporation stipulate that the Company must appropriate employees' bonuses of not less than 1% of estimated earnings to appropriate of each year, and remuneration of directors and supervisors of not more than 5% of estimated earrings to appropriate of each year. Such appropriations can only be made after offsetting accumulated deficit and appropriation of legal reserve, and must be accounted for as a reduction in retained earnings.

To promote long-term development, the Company has adopted a steady dividend policy, in which a cash dividend of around 0~50% of the par value is distributed and a stock dividend of around 50%~100% of the par value is distributed. However, if the predicted earnings per share of a year in which stock dividends are distributed decline to 20% or working capital is low, a cash dividend of 50%~100% of the par value is distributed and a stock dividend of 0~50% of the par value is distributed.

The related information on employees' bonuses and directors' and supervisors' remuneration appropriated from 2002 earnings was as follows:

2002 New Taiwan dollars US dollars

Employees' bonuses-cash $ 25,129 728 Directors' and supervisors' remuneration 10,000 290 $ 35,129 1,018

If the related expenditures listed above were taken as expenses incurred in 2002, the related imputed earnings per share (after tax) would be NT$1.15 (US$0.03).

According to ROC SFC regulations, beginning 2002, information related to the appropriation of employees' bonuses and bonuses for directors and supervisors can be found on web sites such as the Market Observation Post System after the stockholders' meeting.

(c) Methods and assumptions to measure the fair value of financial instruments

(1) The fair value of short-term investments is market value.

86 (2) The fair value of long-term equity investments is market value if they are traded on the public market.

(3) The fair value of convertible bonds is market value.

(4) The fair value of long-term liabilities (except convertible bonds) is the discounted future cash flows, and the discount rates during 2003 and 2002 were 3.18% and 4.16%, respectively.

(5) The fair value of letters of credit and financing guaranty is based on contract.

(6) The fair value of the derivative instruments is based on the receipt or payment if the Company terminates the contracts on the balance sheet date, and generally includes the unrealized gain or loss of the unexpired contracts. Most of the derivative financial instruments have quotations from financial institutions.

(d) Off-balance-sheet credit risk financial instruments

Financing guaranty: As of December 31, 2003 and 2002, the Company had provided a guaranty for an investee company amounting to NT$80,000 thousand. The guaranty was used to guarantee financial borrowings, which have an off-balance-sheet credit risk. Credit risk means the probable accounting loss from a counter-party who violates the contract and/or a significant decrease in the value of a mortgage. If the credit line of the guarantee is used up and the borrowing still cannot be redeemed, the Company's credit risk is equal to the amount of the contract. The counter-party did not provide a mortgage when the Company promised to provide the financing guaranty.

(e) Concentrations of credit risk

The Company's primary potential credit risk is accounts receivable. However, there was no concentration of credit risk because there were more than one counter-party. To decrease the credit risk of accounts receivable, the Company continually evaluated the collectibility of accounts receivable and recognized allowance for doubtful accounts. All bad debts were within management's expectations.
