  • 2019 Corporate Governance Evaluation Results in Taiwan
    2019 Corporate Governance Evaluation Results in Taiwan Conducted by the Securities and Futures Institute Entrusted by Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporation & Taipei Exchange Despite all reasonable care given in the screening process to ensure objectivity, the SFI bears no responsibility in case of any damage or loss incurred from use of the evaluation results. April 30, 2020 2019 Corporate Governance Evaluation Results in Taiwan About the “Corporate Governance Evaluation System” In response to the market need for enhanced corporate governance reforms, the Financial Supervisory Commission ("FSC") issued the "Corporate Governance Roadmap" in December 2013 and the new one in April 2018, aiming to accelerate the implementation of corporate governance among Taiwanese listed companies, assist them with sound development and boost market confidence. According to the roadmaps, the implementation of corporate governance evaluation is one of the major projects with the goal of investors and enterprises better understanding the performance of corporate governance by comparing the evaluation results among companies. In 2014, the Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporation (“TWSE”) and the Taipei Exchange (“TPEx”) launched the “Corporate Governance Evaluation System”, conducted by the Securities and Futures Institute (“SFI”) annually. The FSC believes this evaluation system will make companies take corporate governance more seriously, encourage healthy competition among companies and cultivate a culture that companies voluntarily improve their corporate governance. 2019 is the sixth year of the evaluation and the results have been published on April 30, 2020.The industry differentiation was also taken into account and the evaluation results were released both on a listing market basis and on an industry by industry basis.

  • A Brief Introduction to Tsmc
    TSMC commits itself to providing its customers with the best quality and most comprehensive services. LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS Dear Shareholders, Year 2004 was a banner year for TSMC. We again set new records for revenues and earnings, while continuing to lead the semiconductor dedicated foundry sector. Our production accounted for more than 7% of the total value of the world's semi- conductor output. TSMC's performance was anchored in our "Trinity of Strength": strength in technology development and deployment, strength in manufacturing capacity and efficiency, and strength in building customer partnerships. For example: ● TSMC cumulatively shipped over one million wafers (8-inch equivalent) in 0.13-micron technology. SM ● TSMC's Nexsys 90nm, the world's first 12-inch, low-k, 90-nanometer process to reach full production, was adopted in more than 30 customer products after one year's ramp, and achieved product yields ahead of internal goals. ● TSMC served more than 300 customers and produced more than 5,000 products in our fabs. With its core manufacturing and logistics competencies, TSMC's experience in integrating front-end design and back-end turn- key services has helped customers resolve many daunting challenges in advanced chips designed with our 90nm technology. We collaborate closely with customers, enabling them to deliver their products on time and to achieve success in their end markets. Financial Strength and Results TSMC broke new records in both revenues and net income in 2004. Revenue reached NT$255.9 billion, an increase of 26.8% compared with the previous record set in 2003. Net income was NT$92.32 billion, an increase of 95.3% compared with 2003 results, while fully diluted earnings per share were NT$3.97 (US$0.59 per ADS unit), an increase of 96.8 %.

After markets hit their lowest point of the reporting period in late March 2020, a steady recovery ensued, as businesses began to re-open and governments learned to adapt to life with the virus. Equity prices continued to rise throughout the summer, fed by strong fiscal and monetary support and improving Rob Kapito economic indicators.
