Corporation<br />

Annual Report<br />

2002<br />

Report to Shareholders<br />

Dear Share h o l d e r s ,<br />

For any company, sustained development and profitability are the most important goals. Looking at<br />

the business environment in which it is currently operating, it is apparent that MiTAC faces<br />

changes and challenges stemming both from the industry's own developmental trends and wider<br />

economic conditions.<br />

After more than twenty years of development, the PC industry is confronting a period of stagnant<br />

g rowth, and even decline. However, as the Internet and wireless technologies evolve, pro d u c t s<br />

focused on mobile connectivity have entered a phase of high growth, even as desktop PCs re m a i n<br />

the global industry's largest product category. In terms of economic conditions, sluggishness in the<br />

global economy, price competition within the industry, rapid depreciation in the prices for new<br />

p roducts after introduction, and weak consumer spending are all evident. Companies are facing<br />

an era of razor-thin profit margins, where achieving profits will be difficult, and a proactive searc h<br />

In response to these changes in the larger environment, MiTAC has taken aggressive action<br />

t h rough its business and product strategies. Regarding business strategies, providing customers<br />

with diff e rentiated, high value-added services has been the focus of MiTAC eff o rts. To develop<br />

M i TAC strengths in areas outside of hard w a re design and manufacturing, MiTAC has set out thre e<br />

d i rections where it will concentrate its eff o rt sp recision molding R&D, software design, and the<br />

accumulation of intellectual pro p e rt y. Strengthening MiTAC's capabilities in these three areas will<br />

enable us to increase our autonomy in precision molding technology, which is closely related to<br />

h a rd w a re development and system design; use value-added software services to give MiTA C -<br />

m a n u f a c t u red products a distinctive competitive advantage, and accommodate market tre n d s<br />

t o w a rd more individualized products; and accumulate intellectual pro p e rty to strengthen MiTA C ' s<br />

overall competitiveness and position within the industry.<br />

R e g a rding product strategy, although MiTAC has consistently achieved excellent results in the<br />

desktop PC business, for the sake of its long-term operations, MiTAC began quite early to develop<br />

a second, and even third, product line. As a result, MiTAC was not only the first to begin<br />

development and manufacture of small form factor PCs, but has also introduced various types of<br />

embedded system products. More o v e r, as early as 1996, it commenced R&D for workstation<br />

p roducts. In recent years, development has extended to servers, storage devices, and back-end<br />

e q u i p m e n tand MiTAC has built up a substantial customer base in these markets. From a longt<br />

e rm perspective, as Internet usage continues to expand, strong demand for network equipment<br />

such as servers and storage equipment can be expected.<br />

In addition, two years ago, MiTAC saw an opportunity in wireless communications, and<br />

established a dedicated team for developing communications products. By integrating inform a t i o n<br />

and communications technologies, we were able to successfully develop the Pocket PC that we<br />

i n t roduced last year. With the Pocket PC, we re - e n t e red the brand-name business under the Mio<br />

D i g i Walker brand. In the Greater China market (which includes Taiwan, Hong Kong, and<br />

mainland China), we have achieved excellent results, becoming one of the top three brands in the<br />

Asia-Pacific region after just six months. This year, in addition to continuing to launch new Pocket<br />

PC models, we will also introduce a smart phone. Building on the strong foundation we have<br />

a l ready established, we expect to get an excellent response from the market, in the pro c e s s<br />

gaining another driver for gro w t h .<br />

for strategic responses is called for.<br />

1. Business Operations in 2002<br />

(1) Operational results and financial analysis:<br />

M i TAC's revenues for 2002 amounted to NT$25.178 billion, a decline of 11% from the<br />

NT$28.448 billion we achieved in 2001. The chief reasons for the decline were poor global<br />

economic conditions, sluggish corporate IT spending, and weak consumer demand. After- t a x<br />

p rofits for 2002 were NT$865 million, or NT$0.84 per share. Despite price competition, with<br />

dramatically increased pre s s u re from customer demand for lower prices, MiTAC was still able to<br />

continue development of new products, introducing products and services with strong value-added<br />

f e a t u res. There f o re, we were able to maintain overall profit margins of 8%, meeting our intern a l<br />

t a rgets and equaling our perf o rmance in 2001. More o v e r, MiTAC's financial condition continues<br />

to be solid, with a sound financial plan in place. Our debt-to-asset ratio in 2002 was 40%, with a<br />

t u rnover ratio of 153%, further indications of MiTAC's financial health.<br />

(2) Research and Development<br />

M i TAC has maintained its steadfast commitment to continually strengthening its R&D capabilities,<br />

and aggressively developing core technologies. This commitment has been reflected in the re s u l t s<br />

we have achieved in the area of patents. More o v e r, after first receiving the National Invention<br />

Aw a rds bronze medal in 1997, we went on in 2001 to win a silver medal, demonstrating the<br />

1 Report to Shareholders<br />

MiTAC<br />

International<br />

Corporation<br />

Annual Report<br />

2002<br />

sustained pro g ress we are making in our R&D capabilities.<br />

Looking at the number of patent approvals we have obtained, MiTAC ranked seventh in Ta i w a n<br />

last year, advancing one place over our ranking (eighth) the previous year. The Institute for<br />

I n f o rmation Industry's survey last year of one hundred leading vendors in the semiconductor,<br />

o p t o e l e c t ronic, telecoms services, and information appliance industries cited six companies<br />

with the richest portfolio of intellectual pro p e rty assets, and MiTAC was among these<br />

exclusive few in 2002. This demonstrates that MiTAC has already established a<br />

substantial lead over its rivals in overall capabilities and R&D innovation.<br />

Sales of networking products will amount to 500,000 units. Wi reless communications pro d u c t s<br />

should reach or exceed 800,000 units.<br />

(2) Ongoing measure s :<br />

1. Continue to pursue the implementation of e-commerce systems to raise efficiency and re d u c e<br />

costs: In an era of razor-thin profits, efficiency and cost control will be critical areas for<br />

businesses to focus on, and a comprehensive e-commerce system will play an important role in<br />

achieving results in both these areas. MiTAC has always been committed to implementing<br />

robust information systems and making associated investments. Not only were we the first<br />

company in Taiwan to complete the application process for the Taiwanese government's B Plan<br />

2. Highlights of MiTAC's Business Plan for 2003<br />

M i TAC's development strategy encompasses two strands: (1) tandem development of software and<br />

h a rd w a re, and (2) creation of complementary strengths in both the early (R&D, design) and late<br />

( d e l i v e ry, after-sales service) phases of our operational workflow. As mentioned pre v i o u s l y, MiTA C<br />

will integrate its software engineering re s o u rces, precision molding development capabilities, and<br />

c u rrent hard w a re products, and then take advantage of an internal system of incentives for<br />

encouraging patent proposals to accumulate intellectual pro p e rty rights. The aim of these eff o rts is<br />

to give MiTAC a strong position in an environment where intellectual pro p e rty rights are<br />

i n c reasingly prized. At the same time, in order to ensure the most effective use of intern a l<br />

re s o u rces, MiTAC will focus on three core businesses(1) PC products (emphasizing small form<br />

factor products) and various types of embedded systems devices currently under development; (2)<br />

networking products, including workstations, servers, and data storage equipment; and (3)<br />

w i reless communications product, including Pocket PC devices and smart phonesto create the<br />

most competitive product combinations so customers will seek out MiTAC as a one-stop shop for<br />

total solutions.<br />

To ensure sustained enhancement of MiTAC's overall competitiveness, critical tasks include<br />

e ffective institution of such projects as the development of e-commerce mechanisms, brand<br />

management, and integration of Group re s o u rces. Following is a sales forecast, then a description<br />

of measures that we will be pursuing, accompanied by explanatory notes:<br />

(1) Forecasted sales volumes:<br />

Judging by current market conditions, this year MiTAC will sell roughly 2.7 million desktop PCs.<br />

(for business computerization), but we were cited by a member of the Plan's govern i n g<br />

committee as the most exemplary company of all those implementing the Plan. At present, the<br />

follow-up C, D, and E Plans are being implemented. MiTAC's leadership position in the are a s<br />

that are the focus of these Planssupply chain management and material flow management<br />

will solidify its competitive position moving forw a rd .<br />

2. R e t u rn to the brand business, create new corporate value: For a company, a brand re p re s e n t s<br />

m o re than just a means for achieving additional revenues. More import a n t l y, a brand offers a<br />

channel for communication between a company, and the market and individual consumers,<br />

c reating loyalty to and trust in the company and thereby becoming a source of value. MiTA C ' s<br />

brand strategy is extremely clearto promote branded products only in specific markets and<br />

specific product areas. After considering the three major factors of product characteristics,<br />

market diff e rences, and growth potential, we have selected Pocket PCs and smart phones as our<br />

main branded products, using Mio DigiWalker as the brand name for these products. (For<br />

desktop PCs, servers, and data storage equipment, our business focus will remain on ODM<br />

contract manufacturing.) Since the end of last year, since MiTAC launched its super-slim Mio<br />

528 and Mio 338 in Taiwan, we have achieved a great deal of momentum, swiftly becoming<br />

one of the three best-selling PDA brands in the Asia-Pacific region. This year, MiTAC will<br />

continue to promote its brand business, with three or four new Pocket PC models slated for<br />

release, and two new smart phone products also on tap. These new products will make the Mio<br />

D i g i Walker product lineup more complete, and enable MiTAC to stake out new competitive<br />

t e rr i t o ry and enhance its corporate image.<br />

3. Integrate Group re s o u rces, invest in industry segments related to our core businesses: MiTA C ' s<br />

2002<br />

e ff o rts to combine its own and the Group's re s o u rces, as well as make strategic investments in<br />

i n d u s t ry areas related to our core businesses, are gradually paying off. Last year, the addition<br />

of a new member of the Gro u pTyan, a specialist in the design of motherboards for high-end<br />

s e rvers and workstationsnot only enabled MiTAC to round out the high end of its pro d u c t<br />

lineup, but also provided Tyan with ample support from the Group in the areas of pro d u c t i o n<br />

and delivery. The result is that the competitiveness of both Tyan and the Group have benefited<br />

e n o rm o u s l y. MiTAC Precision Te c h n o l o g y, another member of the MiTAC International Group, is<br />

playing a critical role in the design and manufacture of precision molding, making it a critical<br />

link in MiTAC's vertical integration strategy. By controlling precision molding technology,<br />

M i TAC can more rapidly introduce products that meet customer re q u i rements while incre a s i n g<br />

its design flexibility, thereby adding further to MiTAC's competitive advantage and winning it<br />

new customers. In addition, MiTAC is also investing in the establishment of an independent<br />

s o f t w a re development unitShanghai MiTAC Research Ltd. Its development eff o rts encompass<br />

C O M P<br />

A N Y<br />

operating systems, applications, design testing, and production testing. Not only will MiTA C<br />

itself take advantage of production testing software developed by Shanghai MiTAC Researc h<br />

Ltd. in its own manufacturing operations, but it will utilize pro p r i e t a ry applications developed<br />

by Shanghai MiTAC Research Ltd. for the Mio products. In the future, this process of integration<br />

will continue to be a key focus.<br />

O<br />

V E R V I E W<br />

Looking to the new year, we can anticipate that the industry will continue to change rapidly and<br />

be characterized by intense competition. However, MiTAC is confident that through the<br />

a p p roaches outlined above and by making a sustained eff o rt, we will continue to win customer<br />

satisfaction, and to maintain excellent partnerships within the industry. MiTAC will take advantage<br />

of the superb operational infrastru c t u re it has built up over many years, as well as its experienced<br />

1<br />

management team and flexible strategic planning, to achieve even better results going forw a rd .<br />

M i TAC thanks all of its shareholders for their support, and looks forw a rd to their continued<br />

encouragement and guidance during 2003.<br />

With best wishes,<br />

Market Share<br />

Because of the diff e rent formulae used for calculation, and predominance of company's ODM/OEM in its<br />

overall business, it is difficult to determine actual market share. MiTAC International debuted the Mio<br />

D i g i Walker handheld computer in the second half of last year, and its ranking in this market is rapidly<br />

advancing. Because its brand is a relative latecomer, there is a great deal of potential growth.<br />

After several years of eff o rt, Taiwan's large IT vendors are now able to provide integrated global logistical<br />

management. This capability allows these vendors to accommodate customer product launch timetables in<br />

design, testing, manufacturing, assembly, and sales distributiont h e reby giving customers the best possible<br />

competitive position in the market. As the continuing trend of large international brand vendors seeking<br />

Taiwanese partners makes evident, an increasing quantity of non-PC products will be outsourced to Ta i w a n<br />

for design and manufacturing. For most Taiwanese vendors, including MiTAC International, these alliances<br />

will allow market competitiveness to be stre n g t h e n e d .<br />

F u t u re Supply and Demand, and Growth Prospects for the Market<br />

(1) Desktop Computers<br />

The global PC industry is now more than twenty years old. Products are largely in a mature phase of<br />

development, with the major markets of the USA, Europe, and Japan quite saturated, limiting potential for<br />

f u t u re growth. As for emerging markets such as China, India, and Latin America, due to the relatively level<br />

of penetration for PCs compared to the previously mentioned markets, they present a much brighter picture<br />

for strong growth in the future .<br />

(2) Networking Pro d u c t s<br />

A c c o rding to a re p o rt from the Institute for Information Industry, due to the influence of factors such as the<br />

slowing of growth in the global economy, corporate staff reductions, and conservative spending inform a t i o n<br />

t e c h n o l o g y, worldwide market demand for servers has been weak. In 2002, the level of growth in Ta i w a n ' s<br />

s e rver industry was lower than expected, negatively impacted by sluggish economic conditions and a<br />

reduction in orders stemming from the HP/Compaq merg e r. However, there were other large intern a t i o n a l<br />

vendors that took up the slack by outsourcing a greater quantity of manufacturing. There f o re, overall,<br />

Taiwan's server shipments still managed to slightly exceed the unit volume achieved in 2001. Vo l u m e<br />

shipments in 2002 were 1.468 milllion units, an increase of 6.4% over 201. The value of shipments rose by<br />

a negligible 0.2%, as component prices continued to slide and Taiwanese vendors cut prices to win ord e r s .<br />

As the computing environments faced by businesses becomes ever more complex, companies must purc h a s e<br />

m o re servers to resolve associated problems. However, as servers become more numerous, administration<br />

and security issues will arise. Additionally, space for network server equipment is limited, providing impetus<br />

for the growth of the rack-mountable product segment, which is expected to account for half the serv e r<br />

market in 2003. Furt h e rm o re, in order to save space and ease administration, as well as re d u c e<br />

companies' overall cost-of-ownership, more compact products have emerg e dthe so-called blade serv e r s .<br />

In the long term, this type of product will gradually replace bulky traditional tower form factor serv e r s .<br />

Instead, these blade servers and rack-mounted servers will largely divide the market between them.<br />

Looking to 2003, Wharton Economic Forecasting Associates (WEFA) and the IMF forecast respectively that<br />

global GDP in 2003 will grow by 3.7% and 2.8%, gradually emerging from its recent lows. In additio,<br />

major international brand vendors will gradually increase outsourcing the manufacture of their serv e r<br />

p roducts in order to reduce costs. Taiwanese companies possess advantages such as low costs, high quality,<br />

and excellent logistical infrastru c t u rethese will enable them to obtain additional orders. There f o re, the<br />

Institute for Information Industry predicts that Taiwanese companies will see their server unit shipments<br />

i n c rease by 12% in 2003, while attaining a global market share of close to 31%.<br />

As for other products such as data storage equipment, these are expected to grow in tandem with<br />

continuing development of the Internet. Once market conditions re c o v e r, businesses will begin expanding<br />

their equipment purchases, making prospects for this segment very favorable.<br />

(3) Wi reless Communications Pro d u c t s<br />

With the continuing spread of Internet usage, market demand for various types of associated equipment has<br />

been increasing rapidly, Although demand has been affected by the bursting of the dot.com bubble, in the<br />

long term, growth potential is excellent, as Internet applications will become an important development<br />

t rend. Additionally, because wireless communications technology is increasingly mature, driving consumer<br />

demand for mobile communications, market prospects for wireless Internet access devices are excellent.<br />

S u rvey results from several market re s e a rch firms all point to the growing popularity of inform a t i o n<br />

appliance products. By 2005, production volume of these devices is expected to reach 170 million, with<br />

p roduction value of over US$40 billionmaking it a huge potential market. Taking handheld companion<br />

devices as an example, the rate of market growth thus far has been stunning. According to statistics fro m<br />

IDC, in 2001, the global PDA market was 10 million units, while this figure increased to 15 million in<br />

2002. It forecasts that shipments will grow to 33.62 million units in 2004, while its share of shipments for<br />

handheld companions as a whole will grow to 94.62%, and achieve a compound annual growth rate of<br />

38.1%. In terms of market value, the figure of US$3.65 billion in 2000 is set to increase to US$10.76<br />

billion in 2004, a remarkable rate of growth. The Institute of Information Industry's Market Intelligence<br />

Center and Ministry of Economic Affairs' ITIS Project point out that the eff o rts of Taiwanese vendors in the<br />

development of PDAs is beginning to pay off. Beginning in 2003, total shipment volumes will achieve high<br />

rates of growth, with unit shipments for this year reaching 6 million, an increase of 50% over the<br />

comparable figure for 2002. With global shipments for 2003 forecast to reach 13 million units, Ta i w a n ' s<br />

s h a re is close to 50%. In 2004, Taiwan's shipments are expected to reach 8 million unit, accounting for<br />

50% of worldwide shipments of 16 million.<br />

Tu rning to operating systems, III points out that although Pocket PC's share of the global PDA market in<br />

2002 was around 35% (including WinCE products), this figure may surpass the 50% mark in 2003, while<br />

achieving a compound annual growth rate of 70.9%. Shipments of devices using the Pocket PC operating<br />

system are expected to grow to 1.3 million in 2004.<br />

S m a rt phones, which combine computing capabilities with wireless telecommunications, should achieve a<br />

compound annual growth rate of roughly 163.7%, with shipments of 480,000 units in 2000 growing to<br />

2.319 million in 2004. Market value is expected to grow from 2000's US$269 million to 2004's US$8.44<br />

billion, becoming the industry's next star pro d u c t .<br />

costs and increasing customer satisfaction.<br />

B. Global e-Manufacturing Model<br />

Competitive Advantage and Development Pro s p e c t sPositive and Negative Factors, Strategic Responses<br />

In order to overcome the effects of global economic stagnation, MiTAC International shall take advantage of<br />

the Joint Development Manufacturing (JDM) approach. JDM integrates global R&D, engineering, manufacturing<br />

design, engineering design, sales and technology, and after-sales service in a new operational model that<br />

achieves higher customer satisfaction and delivers a competitive advantage.<br />

(1) Competitive Advantage<br />

Competitive advantage in the wireless communications industry and products lies chiefly in: sales development,<br />

R&D capabilities, cost control, stable product quality and high-yield production process, rapid ramp-up to mass<br />

p roduction, inventory management and components purchasing, strong back-end operational support, and<br />

solid financials. MiTAC International's competitive advantages are as follows:<br />

A. Grasp of customer re q u i rements and market conditions: With the growth of the market for wire l e s s<br />

communications-enabled handheld devices, MiTAC Internaitonal is working with customers to develop the<br />

market. In addition, it is negotiating joint projects with world-class IT vendors, in the process attaining a<br />

grasp of market trends and developing new products in re s p o n s e .<br />

B. Work with the world's first-rank software and hard w a re vendors to ensure supply: Includes support fro m<br />

s o f t w a re vendors for software development, as well as sources for key components.<br />

C. R&D innovation: Numerous products have continued to win various awards and establish a sterling<br />

re c o rd .<br />

D. Continuing advance in product quality and production capacity: Many years of accumulated experience<br />

in PC and embedded systems product technologies are a big advantage in design and manufacturing.<br />

With the benefit of several years' experience with a globalized logistical model, MiTAC International's e-<br />

manufacturing infrastru c t u re is nearing completion. Operations in Taiwan and the USA handling R&D and<br />

design, while facilities in China and Taiwan produce modules and assembly kits. BTO/CTO assembly<br />

centers in the USA, Australia, and UK complete a global manufacturing model based on a coord i n a t e d<br />

division of labor. Based chiefly on the sophistication of the product's underlying technology, pro d u c t i o n<br />

costs, transport times, and tax considerations, a determination will be made as to the manufacturing<br />

network system that best accommodates delivery re q u i rements specified by the ord e r. Taiwan is larg e l y<br />

responsible for high-end motherboards, workstations, servers, and storage devices. Components and<br />

systems that are less sophisticated technologically and are less time-sensitive are manufactured in China.<br />

High-priced key components are sourced at the location of global production sites. This globally<br />

integrated division of labor has already enabled MiTAC International to grow from a local org a n i z a t i o n<br />

into a internationalized e-manufacturing company with global R&D, engineering, manufacturing, and<br />

sales distribution infrastru c t u re .<br />

C. Expand development of high value-added pro d u c t s :<br />

In response to emerging development trends favoring the integration of wireless Internet access<br />

capabilities in computers, MiTAC International will continue to ally with world-leading vendors to jointly<br />

develop markets. MiTAC International will pursue development of several products in this category, such<br />

as Windows CE-based handheld computer products (including products with wireless communications<br />

capabilities), and smart phones.<br />

In addition, in view of the Internet's future development and growth in market demand for servrs and data<br />

storage equipment, MiTAC International will cotinue to develop Intel arc h i t e c t u re-based servers and data<br />

storage devices.<br />

P roduction capacity has increased in tandem.<br />

Labor/Management Re l a t i o n s<br />

The company is an information technology company, and its staff is suitably composed. In order to pursue a<br />

business philosophy based on humane management principles, the company has actively sought to cre a t e<br />

various communication channels, and respects the views of its employees. Employees are able to actively<br />

p a rticipate in affairs related to labor/management relations. Following is an overview of the company's policy<br />

in the are a :<br />

Communication and Incentives<br />

The <strong>Company</strong> greatly values the views of its employees, and has designated a dedicated staff members to be<br />

in charge of employee relations. It has also created a post office box, encouraging employees to provide their<br />

opinions and respond to problems. Each year, an employee meeting is held, better allowing employees to<br />

d i rectly communicate with executives. In the hope that employee needs could be better met, every six months,<br />

d e p a rtmental satisfaction surveys are conducted, as well as a comprhensive exectuvie surv e y. At the end of<br />

each year, an employee satisfaction survey is conducted in order to ensure that employee concerns are<br />

u n d e r s t o o d .<br />

The <strong>Company</strong> has spared no eff o rt to establish internal communication channels. At present, the e-mail system<br />

is already in general use by employees, reducing paper waste and a proliferation of re p o rt sand incre a s i n g<br />

communication eff i c i e n c y. At the same time, the <strong>Company</strong> has created an internal "speak-out mailbox" e-mail<br />

a d d ress where employees can directly express their views. In addition, in consideraton of employees, the<br />

<strong>Company</strong> invested more than NT$4 million to set up a videoconferencing system linking offices in Hsinchu,<br />

Linkou, and Taipei, thereby reducing the need to travel between these locations for work purposes. Since this<br />

system was implemented, employees in Hsinchu, Linkou, and Taipei can not hold inter- o ffice meetings without<br />

needing to leave their own offices, but the company's internal communications have been greatly enhanced.<br />

The company has also implemented an electronic bulletin board to regularly promulgate the <strong>Company</strong>'s<br />

business ideals, announce business perf o rmance, and publish useful information from the outside world. In<br />

o rder to provide an effective encouragement to employees and enhance morale, the <strong>Company</strong> selected an<br />

outstanding employee at the end of each year, and also honors senior employees who have completed five,<br />

ten, fifteen, and twenty years of service. At the <strong>Company</strong>'s year-end weiya part y, the chairman and pre s i d e n t<br />

p resent gold commemorative plaques and monetary prizes. The company's main business unit in the Ta i p e i<br />

suburb of Linkou was moved to the Hwa-Ya Technology Park during August 2001. In order to minimize any<br />

inconvenience for employees during the moving process, a shuttle bus was provided to transport them between<br />

the Park and Taipei. At the new location, a sufficient number of spaces in a parking garage were allotted to<br />

c o m f o rtable working enviro n m e n t .<br />

Benefits and Tr a i n i n g<br />

The <strong>Company</strong> considers its employees to be one of its most important assets. In addition to providing employee<br />

insurance in conformance with relevant labor laws, the <strong>Company</strong> has also joined group life and overseas travel<br />

insurance plans, with the <strong>Company</strong> covering the full amount of insurance fees.<br />

A well-organized employee benefits committee with members selected by individual departments not only holds<br />

regular meetings to coordinate the <strong>Company</strong>'s worker benefits measures and programs, but also org a n i z e s<br />

intra-company clubs to promote leisure and re c reational activities that can build camaraderie among<br />

e m p l o y e e s .<br />

The <strong>Company</strong> has established a re f e rence library that is open to employees all day, stocking it with materials<br />

on CD-ROM and participating in the Sci-Tech Interlibrary Cooperation Association so that employees can easily<br />

access information pertinent to their work. The <strong>Company</strong> also provides comprehensive training programs to<br />

stimulate employees' potential and allow them to<br />

continuously learn and grow as they workm a k i n g<br />

work a home and a school. Each year, the <strong>Company</strong><br />

disburses substantial funds for employee education.<br />

S e v e real years of eff o rt in this area, have yielded<br />

re s u l t s .<br />

Labor/Management Disputes<br />

The <strong>Company</strong> has negotiated a As curre n t<br />

labor/management relations at the <strong>Company</strong> are<br />

h a rmonious, the possibility of losses stemming fro m<br />

disputes in this area are exceedingly low. The<br />

Compnay will remain faithful to principles of humane<br />

management and continuing building a system of<br />

multiple channels of communication, not only to<br />

maintain the current harmonious state of re l a t i o n s<br />

between labor and management, but also in the hope<br />

of advancing these relations even furt h e r.<br />

those employees driving to work. These measures were undertaken to give employees a more convenient and<br />

Annual Report<br />

2002<br />

Report of Independent Accountants<br />

To MITAC International Corp.<br />

As described in Note 3 (3) to the consolidated financial statements, MITAC Precision Technology Co., Ltd.<br />

and its subsidiaries that were excluded from the consolidated financial statements in 2001, met the criteria<br />

We have audited the consolidated balance sheet of MITAC International Corp. and its subsidiaries as of<br />

December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related consolidated statements of income, of changes in<br />

stockholders' equity and of cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are<br />

the responsibility of the <strong>Company</strong>s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these<br />

consolidated financial statements based on our audits.<br />

to be included in the consolidated financial statements in 2002 as their operating revenues over 10% of the<br />

C o m p a n ys non-consolidated operating revenue. Additionally, in 2002, the ownership in MITA C<br />

Technology Corp., a consolidated entity in 2001, had declined to below 50%, and MITAC Te c h n o l o g y<br />

Corp. was accordingly excluded from consolidated financial statements in 2002. For the changes in<br />

consolidated entities, financial statements for 2001 have been restated to be comparable to the 2002<br />

consolidated financial statements.<br />

We conducted our audits in accordance with theRules Governing the Examination of Financial Statements<br />

by Certified Public Accountantsand generally accepted auditing standards in the Republic of China.<br />

Those standards re q u i re that we plan and perf o rm the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether<br />

the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a<br />

test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An<br />

audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by<br />

M a rch 14, 2003<br />

management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe<br />

that our audits provide a reasonable basis for opinion.<br />

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements audited by us present fairly, in all<br />

material respects, the consolidated financial position of MITAC International Corp. and its subsidiaries as of<br />

December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then<br />

ended in conformity with the Rules Governing the Preparation of Financial Statements of Securities<br />

I s s u e r sand generally accepted accounting principles in the Republic of China.<br />

As described in Note 3 (1) to the consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2002, the<br />

<strong>Company</strong> adopted R.O.C. Financial Accounting Standards (FA S) No.30Accounting Standard for<br />

Tre a s u ry Stock. R.O.C. FAS No.30 re q u i res that the <strong>Company</strong>s stock held by subsidiaries should be<br />

re c o rded as tre a s u ry stock, and no gain or loss can be recognized into profit and loss accounts. As a re s u l t<br />

of this change of accounting principle, total assets decreased $182,371 as of December 31, 2002 and net<br />

income decreased $82,966 for the year ended December 31, 2002.<br />

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are not intended to present the financial position and<br />

results of operations and cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in<br />

countries and jurisdictions other than the Republic of China. The standards, pro c e d u res and practices in the<br />

Republic of China governing the audit of such consolidated financial statements may differ from those<br />

generally accepted in countries and jurisdictions other than the Republic of China. Accord i n g l y, the<br />

accompanying consolidated financial statement and re p o rt of the independent accountants are not intended<br />

for use by those who are not informed about the accounting principles or auditing standards generally<br />

accepted in the Republic of China, and their applications in practice.<br />

Desktop PCs<br />

F u t u re products slated for development will integrate digital audiovisual applications and the Intern e tf o r<br />

example, high-resolution digital televisions, personal digital camcorders, optical storage devices, home serv e r s ,<br />

w i reless networking products. It is projected that these products will enter mass production in the third quart e r<br />

of 2004. The key to the success of this R&D eff o rt will be whether relevant industry standards are unified.<br />

On another front, due to the rapid increase in the speed of CPUs, demands stemming from heat dissipation<br />

designs and safety regulations will become more important. Beginning in 2002, development of small form<br />

factor chassis commenced, as well the development of system arc h i t e c t u res for personal computers with<br />

superior thermal characteristics. Products have been introduced beginning in 2003. The key to the success of<br />

these R&D eff o rts is lowering material costs.<br />

C o o rdinating with the eff o rts of major vendors of high-perf o rmance chips for workstations, the company has<br />

initiated development and manufacture of high-end low-cost workstations. Beginning in 2003, it has alre a d y<br />

begun mass producing these workstation models, with full ramp-up expected in the third quarter of 2003. The<br />

key to the success of these R&D eff o rts will be broad availability and maturity of the chips for low-cost<br />

w o r k s t a t i o n s .<br />

Networking Pro d u c t s<br />

Development of ultra-dense blade servers has commenced, with mass production set to begin by the end of this<br />

y e a r. Development of high-perf o rmance servers is also in pro g ress, with mass production slated to start midy<br />

e a r. The main factor influencing the success of this R&D eff o rt is the capabilities of the R&D team. In re s p o n s e ,<br />

R&D staffers in Shanghai and the USA have joined product development work.<br />

Wi reless Communications Pro d u c t s<br />

The wireless communications products under development this year include two major categories: Pocket PCs<br />

and smart phones. Three to four new Pocket PC models are slated for development, with shipments to begin in<br />

the third quarter of this year. For smart phones, two or three new products will be introduced. The first model<br />

will enter mass production in the second quarter of this year, with the second set to follow in the third quart e r.<br />

Because these eff o rts involved the new development of several new products, an additional 80 or more<br />

engineers will need to be deployed in order to complete the designs.<br />

A d d i t i o n a l l y, because wireless-enabled Pocket PCs and smart phones entail complicated process of cert i f i c a t i o n<br />

for compliance with RF design and telecommunications regulations. In order to successfully complete design<br />

work, technical assistance from wireless communications module vendors will be re q u i red, as well as design<br />

collaboration with Microsoft and Intel in order to ensure the phone product's design quality. However, since<br />

M i TAC International is the first company to adopt Microsoft and Intel's smart phone re f e rence design, it can<br />

v i rtually guarantee the process of obtaining assistance will be uneventful, and there f o re, product development<br />

Technology Changes in the Most Recent Ye a rTheir Influence on the <strong>Company</strong>'s Finances and Sales,<br />

and the <strong>Company</strong>'s Responses<br />

Desktop Computer Pro d u c t s :<br />

Due to rapid price declines and intense competition in computer hard w a re products, profits are being<br />

squeezed despite growth in unit sales. The appropriate response is develop lower-cost products and speed up<br />

their development and ramp-up to mass pro d u c t i o n .<br />

Networking Pro d u c t s<br />

Due to the effects of an unfavorable economic environment, companies are investing less in technology. As a<br />

result, the revenues that a single new product can contribute are correspondingly diminished. In addition,<br />

vendors are cutting prices in order to obtain orders, putting pre s s u re on profit margins. There f o re, a gre a t e r<br />

number of R&D workers must be assigned to a greater number of new development projects in order to achieve<br />

the same level of revenues and profits. The appearance of Ultra-dense serv e r s p roduct should increase average<br />

p e r-unit prices and production value.<br />

Wi reless Communications Pro d u c t s<br />

The product technology development trend embedded systems devices that play an important role in handheld<br />

p roducts is toward lower power consumption and greater functional integration in a single chip. The trend for<br />

wirless communications products, besides lower power consumption, is toward ever faster speeds for data<br />

communications. MiTAC International is able to keep abreast of these trends due to its strategic alliances with<br />

Intel, Microsoft, and world-famous telecommunications companies. This has enabled MiTAC International to<br />

develop a new generation of PDA products and handheld smart client products. Receiving a favorable re s p o n s e<br />

f rom the broader market, MiTAC's eff o rts in this area have contributed to sales and pro f i t s .<br />
