To realize our vision, we must have a trinity of strengths: (1) be a technology leader, competitive with the leading IDMs (2) be the lowest-cost manufacturer, and (3) be the most reputable, service-oriented and maximum-total-benefits silicon foundry. TSMC Core Values Integrity – Integrity is our most basic and most important core value. We tell the truth. We believe the record of our accomplishments is the best proof of our merit. Hence, we do not brag. We do not make commitments lightly. Once we make a commitment, we devote ourselves completely to meeting that commitment.

Reporting Principles This is the twelfth issue of the annual Sustainability Report published by Taiwan Power Company (Taipower). This year, the statistics and disclosures in the report have been compiled in accordance with the Sustainability Reporting Standards of the Global Reporting Initiatives (GRI). This report has been verified by SGS Taiwan to ensure that the report meets the requirements of both the Core Option of the GRI and the accountability principle standards (APS) in AA1000 (Type 1 Moderate Level). The contents featured in this Sustainability Report have been compiled from data submitted by relevant units of Taipower. To ensure the accuracy of report contents and compliance with stakeholders’ expectations, each year, an editorial meeting is held upon the completion of the report’s initial draft for all data-submitting units to review the contents of the report and provide feedback on the report. All contents of the report must be approved by the corresponding unit supervisor, the President and Chairman before publication. Considering the changes in Taiwan’s economy and environments in conjunction with the three major developmental issues (reliable power supply, Energy Transition and corporate transformation) that Taipower now faces, Taipower’s 2018 Sustainability Report has adopted “Achieving Sustainable Power through Dedication” as its theme as the company responds to international trends in green Energy Transition and domestic expectations for reliable power supply. The contents of each chapter have been compiled based on the roadmap of Taipower’s five major developments in the future to reflect the roles that the company is anticipating to assume in the days to come.
