INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REVIEW REPORT

 

 

The Board of Directors and Shareholders

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited

 

Introduction

 

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) as of September 30, 2019 and 2018, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the consolidated statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the nine months then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the consolidated financial statements based on our reviews.

 

Scope of Review

 

We conducted our reviews in accordance with Statement of Auditing Standards No. 65 “Review of Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity”. A review of consolidated financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

 

Conclusion

 

Based on our reviews, nothing has come to our attention that caused us to believe that the accompanying consolidated financial statements do not present fairly, in all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Company as of September 30, 2019 and 2018, its consolidated financial performance for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018 in accordance with the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and International Accounting Standard 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission of the Republic of China.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2019 and 2018

(Amounts in Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Specified Otherwise)

(Reviewed, Not Audited)

 

 

1.

GENERAL

 

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (TSMC), a Republic of China (R.O.C.) corporation, was incorporated on February 21, 1987. TSMC is a dedicated foundry in the semiconductor industry which engages mainly in the manufacturing, selling, packaging, testing and computer-aided design of integrated circuits and other semiconductor devices and the manufacturing of masks.

 

On September 5, 1994, TSMC’s shares were listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TWSE). On October 8, 1997, TSMC listed some of its shares of stock on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in the form of American Depositary Shares (ADSs).

 

The address of its registered office and principal place of business is No. 8, Li-Hsin Rd. 6, Hsinchu Science Park, Taiwan. The principal operating activities of TSMC’s subsidiaries are described in Note 4.

 

 

2.

THE AUTHORIZATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements were reported to the Board of Directors and issued on November 12, 2019.

 

 

3.

APPLICATION OF NEW AND REVISED INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS

 

 

a.

Initial application of the amendments to the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), International Accounting Standards (IAS), IFRIC Interpretations (IFRIC), and SIC Interpretations (SIC) (collectively, “IFRSs”) endorsed and issued into effect by the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC)

 

Except for the following, the initial application of the amendments to the Regulations Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers and the IFRSs endorsed and issued into effect by the FSC did not have a significant effect on TSMC and its subsidiaries’ (collectively as the “Company”) accounting policies:

 

 

1)

IFRS 16 “Leases”

 

IFRS 16 sets out the accounting standards for leases that supersedes IAS 17 “Leases”, IFRIC 4 “Determining whether an Arrangement contains a Lease”, and a number of related interpretations.

Refer to Note 4 for information relating to the relevant accounting policies.

 

Definition of a lease

 

The Company applies the guidance of IFRS 16 in determining whether contracts are, or contain, a lease only to contracts entered into (or changed) on or after January 1, 2019. Contracts identified as containing a lease under IAS 17 and IFRIC 4 are not reassessed and are accounted for in accordance with the transitional provisions under IFRS 16.


- 10 -


 

 

 

The Company as lessee

 

Except for payments for short-term leases which are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis, the Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases on the consolidated balance sheets. On the consolidated statements of comprehensive income, the Company presents the depreciation expense charged on right-of-use assets separately from the interest expense accrued on lease liabilities and computed using the effective interest method. On the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash payments for both the principal portion and the interest portion of lease liabilities are classified within financing activities.

 

The Company applies IFRS 16 retrospectively with the cumulative effect of the initial application recognized at the date of initial application but does not restate comparative information.

 

Leases agreements classified as operating leases under IAS 17, except for short-term leases, are measured at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate on January 1, 2019. Right-of-use assets are measured at an amount equal to the lease liabilities, adjusted by the amount of any prepaid or accrued lease payments. Right-of-use assets are subject to impairment testing under IAS 36.

 

The Company applies the following practical expedients to measure right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on January 1, 2019:

 

 

a)

The Company applies a single discount rate to a portfolio of leases with reasonably similar characteristics to measure lease liabilities.

 

 

b)

The Company accounts for those leases for which the lease term ends on or before December 31, 2019 as short-term leases.

 

 

c)

Except for lease payments, the Company excludes incremental costs of obtaining the lease from right-of-use assets on January 1, 2019.

 

 

d)

The Company determines lease terms (e.g. lease periods) based on the projected status on January 1, 2019, to measure lease liabilities.

 

The weighted average lessee’s incremental borrowing rate used by the Company to calculate lease liabilities recognized on January 1, 2019 is 1.46%. The reconciliation between the lease liabilities recognized and the future minimum lease payments of non-cancellable operating lease on December 31, 2018 is presented as follows:

Leases

 

2019

 

For a contract that contains a lease component and non-lease component, the Company may elect to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component.

 

The Company as lessor

 

Rental income from operating lease is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

 

The Company as lessee

 

Except for payments for low-value asset leases and short-term leases (leases of machinery and equipment and others) which are recognized as expenses on a straight-line basis, the Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases at the commencement date of the lease.

 

Right-of-use assets are measured at cost. The cost of right-of-use assets comprises the initial measurement of lease liabilities adjusted for lease payments made at or before the commencement date, plus an estimate of costs needed to restore the underlying assets. Subsequent measurement is calculated as cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment loss and adjusted for changes in lease liabilities as a result of lease term modifications or other related factors. Right-of use assets are presented separately in the consolidated balance sheets.

 

Right-of-use assets are depreciated using the straight-line method from the commencement dates to the earlier of the end of the useful lives of the right-of-use assets or the end of the lease terms. If the lease transfers ownership of the underlying assets to the Company by the end of the lease terms or if the cost of right-of-use assets reflects that the Company will exercise a purchase option, the Company depreciates the right-of-use assets from the commencement dates to the end of the useful lives of the underlying assets.

 


- 14 -


 

 

 

Lease liabilities are measured at the present value of the lease payments. Lease payments comprise fixed payments, variable lease payments which depend on an index or a rate and the exercise price of a purchase option if the Company is reasonably certain to exercise that option. The lease payments are discounted using the lessee’s incremental borrowing rates.

 

Subsequently, lease liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, with interest expense recognized over the lease terms. When there is a change in a lease term, a change in future lease payments resulting from a change in an index or a rate used to determine those payments, or a change in the assessment of an option to purchase an underlying asset, the Company remeasures the lease liabilities with a corresponding adjustment to the right-of-use assets. Lease liabilities are presented on a separate line in the consolidated balance sheets.

 

Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are recognized as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.

 

2018

 

Leases are classified as finance lease whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

 

The Company as lessor

 

Rental income from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.

 

The Company as lessee

 

Operating lease payments are recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

 

Retirement Benefits

 

Pension cost for an interim period is calculated on a year-to-date basis by using the actuarially determined pension cost rate at the end of the prior financial year.

 

Taxation

 

Income tax expense represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. The interim period income tax expense is accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual earnings, that is, the estimated average annual effective income tax rate applied to the pre-tax income of the interim period. When tax rate changes during the interim period, the effect of the change in tax rate relating to transactions recognized outside scope of profit or loss is recognized in full in the period in which the change in tax rate occurs. The effect of the change in tax rate relating to transactions recognized in profit or loss is incorporated into estimation of the average annual income tax rate, with corresponding effect recognized throughout the interim periods.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION AND UNCERTAINTY

 

Except for the following paragraphs, the same critical accounting judgments and key sources of estimates and uncertainty have been followed in these consolidated financial statements as were applied in the preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018.

 


- 15 -


 

 

 

Recognition of Right-of-Use Assets and Lease Liabilities

 

Lease terms and lessee’s incremental borrowing rates used in discounting lease payments are main factors considered in recognizing right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

 

In determining a lease term, the Company considers all facts and circumstances that create an economic incentive to exercise or not to exercise an option, including any expected changes in facts and circumstances from the commencement date until the exercise date of the option. Main factors considered include contractual terms and conditions for the optional periods, the importance of the underlying asset to the lessee’s operations, etc. The lease term is reassessed if a significant change in circumstances that are within the control of the Company occurs.

 

In determining a lessee’s incremental borrowing rate used in discounting lease payments, the Company mainly takes into account the market risk-free rates, the estimated lessee’s credit spreads and secured status in a similar economic environment.

Fair value hedge

 

The Company entered into interest rate futures contracts, which are used to partially hedge against the price risk caused by changes in interest rates in the Company’s investments in fixed income securities. The hedge ratio is adjusted in response to the changes in the financial market and capped at 100%.

 

On the basis of economic relationships, the Company expects that the value of the interest rate futures contracts and the value of the hedged financial assets will change in opposite directions in response to movements in interest rates.

 

The main source of hedge ineffectiveness in these hedging relationships is the credit risk of the hedged financial assets, which is not reflected in the fair value of the interest rate futures contracts. No other sources of ineffectiveness emerged from these hedging relationships. Amount of hedge ineffectiveness recognized in profit or loss is classified under other gains and losses.

Cash flow hedge

 

The Company entered into forward exchange contracts and foreign currency deposits to partially hedge foreign exchange rate risks associated with certain highly probable forecast transactions (capital expenditures). The hedge ratio is adjusted in response to the changes in the financial market and capped at 100%. The forward exchange contracts have maturities of 12 months or less.

 

On the basis of economic relationships, the Company expects that the value of forward exchange contracts and foreign currency deposits and the value of hedged transactions will change in opposite directions in response to movements in foreign exchange rates.

 

The main source of hedge ineffectiveness in these hedging relationships is driven by the effect of the counterparty’s own credit risk on the fair value of forward exchange contracts and foreign currency deposits. No other sources of ineffectiveness emerged from these hedging relationships. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, refer to Note 20(d) for gain or loss arising from changes in the fair value of hedging instruments and the amount transferred to initial carrying amount of hedged items.

The Company signed a contract with the bank to sell certain accounts receivable without recourse and transaction cost required. These accounts receivable are classified as at FVTOCI because they are held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual cash flows and selling financial assets.

 

In principle, the payment term granted to customers is due 30 days from the invoice date or 30 days from the end of the month when the invoice is issued. Aside from recognizing impairment loss for credit-impaired accounts receivable, the Company recognizes loss allowance based on the expected credit loss ratio of customers by different risk levels with consideration of factors of historical loss ratios and customers’ financial conditions, competitiveness and business outlook. For accounts receivable past due over 90 days without collaterals or guarantees, the Company recognizes loss allowance at full amount.

Under the relevant laws, the capital surplus generated from donations and the excess of the issuance price over the par value of capital stock (including the stock issued for new capital, mergers and convertible bonds) may be used to offset a deficit; in addition, when the Company has no deficit, such capital surplus may be distributed as cash dividends or stock dividends up to a certain percentage of TSMC’s paid-in capital. The capital surplus from share of changes in equities of subsidiaries and associates and dividend of a claim extinguished by a prescription may be used to offset a deficit; however, when generated from issuance of restricted shares for employees, such capital surplus may not be used for any purpose.

 

 

c.

Retained earnings and dividend policy

 

The amendments to TSMC’s Articles of Incorporation had been approved by TSMC’s shareholders in its meeting held on June 5, 2019, which stipulate that earnings distribution may be made on a quarterly basis after the close of each quarter. Distribution of earnings by way of cash dividends should be approved by TSMC’s Board of Directors and reported to TSMC’s shareholders in its meeting.

 

TSMC’s amended Articles of Incorporation provide that, when allocating earnings, TSMC shall first estimate and reserve the taxes to be paid, offset its losses, set aside a legal capital reserve at 10% of the remaining earnings (until the accumulated legal capital reserve equals TSMC’s paid-in capital), then set aside a special capital reserve in accordance with relevant laws or regulations or as requested by the authorities in charge. Any balance left over shall be allocated according to relevant laws and the TSMC’s Articles of Incorporation.

 

TSMC’s Articles of Incorporation also provide that profits of TSMC may be distributed by way of cash dividend and/or stock dividend. However, distribution of earnings shall be made preferably by way of cash dividend. Distribution of earnings may also be made by way of stock dividend, provided that the ratio for stock dividend shall not exceed 50% of the total distribution.

 

The reserve may be used to offset a deficit, or be distributed as dividends in cash or stocks for the portion in excess of 25% of the paid-in capital if the Company incurs no loss.

 

Pursuant to existing regulations, the Company is required to set aside additional special capital reserve equivalent to the net debit balance of the other components of stockholders’ equity, such as the accumulated balance of foreign currency translation reserve, unrealized valuation gain or loss from fair value through other comprehensive income financial assets, unrealized valuation gain or loss from available-for-sale financial assets, gain or loss from changes in fair value of hedging instruments in cash flow hedges, etc. For the subsequent decrease in the deduction amount to stockholders’ equity, any special reserve appropriated may be reversed to the extent that the net debit balance reverses.

 

The appropriations of 2018 and 2017 earnings have been approved by TSMC’s shareholders in its meetings held on June 5, 2019 and June 5, 2018, respectively. The appropriations and cash dividends per share were as follows:

Starting the first quarter of 2019, the Company reported its net revenue breakdown by platform, instead of by application. The Company believes this change will better represent the Company’s results.

 

Commencing in the fourth quarter of 2018, the Company began to break down the net revenue by product, by geography and by resolution based on a new method which associates most estimated sales returns and allowances with individual sales transactions, as opposed to the previous method which allocated sales returns and allowances based on the aforementioned gross revenue. The Company believes the new method provides a more relevant breakdown than the previous one. On a comparable basis, the classifications of three months and nine months ended September 30, 2018 have been revised accordingly.

The changes in the contract liability balances primarily result from the timing difference between the satisfaction of performance obligation and the customer’s payment.

 

The Company recognized revenue from the beginning balance of contract liability, which amounted to NT$313,171 thousand and NT$128,863 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively; and NT$3,787,995 thousand and NT$31,641,659 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

b.

Financial risk management objectives

 

The Company seeks to ensure that sufficient cost-efficient funding is readily available when needed. The Company manages its exposure to foreign currency risk, interest rate risk, equity price risk, credit risk and liquidity risk with the objective to reduce the potentially adverse effects the market uncertainties may have on its financial performance.

 

The plans for material treasury activities are reviewed by Audit Committees and/or Board of Directors in accordance with procedures required by relevant regulations or internal controls. During the implementation of such plans, the corporate treasury function must comply with certain treasury procedures that provide guiding principles for overall financial risk management and segregation of duties.

 

 

c.

Market risk

 

The Company is exposed to the financial market risks, primarily changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and equity investment prices. A portion of these risks is hedged.

 

Foreign currency risk

 

The majority of the Company’s revenue is denominated in U.S. dollar and over one-half of its capital expenditures are denominated in currencies other than NT dollar, primarily in U.S. dollar, Japanese yen and Euro. As a result, any significant fluctuations to its disadvantage in exchanges rate of NT dollar against such currencies, in particular a weakening of U.S. dollar against NT dollar, would have an adverse impact on the revenue and operating profit as expressed in NT dollar. The Company uses foreign currency derivative contracts, such as currency forwards or currency swaps, to protect against currency exchange rate risks associated with non-NT dollar-denominated assets and liabilities and certain forecasted transactions. The Company utilizes U.S. dollar denominated debt to partially offset currency risk arising from U.S. dollar denominated receivables for balance sheet hedges. These hedges reduce, but do not entirely eliminate, the financial impact on the Company caused by the effect of foreign currency exchange rate movements on the assets and liabilities.

 

Based on a sensitivity analysis performed on the Company’s total monetary assets and liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, a hypothetical adverse foreign currency exchange rate change of 10% would have decreased its net income by NT$769,310 thousand and NT$585,920 thousand, respectively, and decreased its other comprehensive income by NT$250,439 thousand and NT$91,341 thousand, respectively, after taking into account hedges and offsetting positions.

 

Interest rate risk

 

The Company is exposed to interest rate risk primarily related to its investments in fixed income securities and the Company’s debts.

 

Financial assets at amortized costs are measured at amortized cost, and therefore changes in interest rates would not affect the fair value. On the other hand, financial assets at FVTPL and financial assets at FVTOCI are exposed to fair value fluctuations caused by changes in interest rates. The Company entered into interest rate futures to partially hedge the interest rate risk on its financial assets at FVTPL and financial assets at FVTOCI. These hedges can offset only a small portion of the financial impact from movements in interest rates.

 


- 42 -


 

 

 

Based on a sensitivity analysis performed on fixed income investments at the end of the reporting period, an interest rate increase of 100 basis points (1.00%) across all maturities would have decreased the fair value by NT$3,239,317 thousand and NT$2,830,260 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The decreases were composed of NT$3,238,349 thousand decrease and NT$2,680,417 thousand decrease in other comprehensive income, and NT$968 thousand decrease and NT$149,843 thousand decrease in net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

 

All of the Company’s debts are fixed-rate, NT dollar denominated bonds and measured at amortized cost. As such, changes in interest rates would not affect the future cash flows and fair value.

 

Other price risk

 

The Company is exposed to equity price risk arising from financial assets at FVTOCI.

 

Assuming a hypothetical decrease of 10% in prices of the equity investments at the end of the reporting period for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the other comprehensive income would have decreased by NT$392,735 thousand and NT$628,363 thousand, respectively.

 

 

d.

Credit risk management

 

Credit risk refers to the risk that a counterparty will default on its contractual obligations resulting in financial losses to the Company. The Company is exposed to credit risks from operating activities, primarily trade receivables, and from investing activities, primarily deposits, fixed-income investments and other financial instruments with banks. Credit risk is managed separately for business related and financial related exposures. As of the end of the reporting period, the Company’s maximum credit risk exposure is equal to the carrying amount of financial assets.

 

Business related credit risk

 

The Company’s trade receivables are from its customers worldwide. The majority of the Company’s outstanding trade receivables are not covered by collaterals or guarantees. While the Company has procedures to monitor and manage credit risk exposure on trade receivables, there is no assurance such procedures will effectively eliminate losses resulting from its credit risk. This risk is heightened during periods when economic conditions worsen.

 

As of September 30, 2019, December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018, the Company’s ten largest customers accounted for 77%, 79% and 76% of accounts receivable, respectively. The Company considers the concentration of credit risk for the remaining accounts receivable not material.

 

Financial credit risk

 

The Company mitigates its financial credit risk by selecting counterparties with investment-grade credit ratings and by limiting the exposure to any individual counterparty. The Company regularly monitors and reviews the limit applied to counterparties and adjusts the limit according to market conditions and the credit standing of the counterparties.

 

The risk management of expected credit loss for financial assets at amortized cost and investments in debt instruments at FVTOCI is as follows:

 

The Company only invests in debt instruments that are rated as investment grade or higher. The credit rating information is supplied by external rating agencies. The Company assesses whether there has been a significant increase in credit risk since initial recognition by reviewing changes in external credit ratings, financial market conditions and material information of the bond issuers.

 


- 43 -


 

 

 

The Company assesses the 12-month expected credit loss and lifetime expected credit loss based on the probability of default and loss given default provided by external credit rating agencies. The current credit risk assessment policies are as follows:

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 2018, the expected credit loss increases NT$2,942 thousand and decreases NT$1,228 thousand, respectively. The changes are mainly due to investment portfolio adjustment.

 

 

e.

Liquidity risk management

 

The objective of liquidity risk management is to ensure the Company has sufficient liquidity to fund its business operations over the next 12 months. The Company manages its liquidity risk by maintaining adequate cash and cash equivalent, debt investment at FVTPL, financial assets at FVTOCI-current, and financial assets amortized at cost-current.

Fair value of financial instruments

 

 

1)

Fair value measurements recognized in the consolidated balance sheets

 

Fair value measurements are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable:

 

 

Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

 

Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and

 

Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

 

The timing of transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy is at the end of reporting period.

Note:

The transfer from level 3 to level 2 is because observable market data became available for the equity investments.

 

Valuation techniques and assumptions used in Level 2 fair value measurement

 

The fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities are determined as follows:

 

 

The fair values of corporate bonds, agency bonds, agency mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, government bonds, commercial papers and non-publicly traded equity investments are determined by quoted market prices provided by third party pricing services.

 

Forward exchange contracts are measured using forward exchange rates and the discounted curves that are derived from quoted market prices.

 

The fair value of accounts receivables classified as at FVTOCI are determined by the present value of future cash flows based on the discount rate that reflects the credit risk of counterparties.

 

Valuation techniques and assumptions used in Level 3 fair value measurement

 

The fair values of non-publicly traded equity investments are mainly determined by using the asset approach, income approach and market approach.

 

The asset approach takes into account the net asset value measured at the fair value by independent parties. On September 30, 2019, December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018, the Company uses unobservable inputs derived from discount for lack of marketability by 10%. When other inputs remain equal, the fair value will decrease by NT$34,249 thousand, NT$31,420 thousand and NT$31,736 thousand if discounts for lack of marketability increase by 1%.

 

The income approach utilizes discounted cash flows to determine the present value of the expected future economic benefits that will be derived from the investment. On September 30, 2019, December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018, the Company uses significant unobservable inputs, which include expected returns, discount rate of 10%, discount for lack of marketability of 10%, and discounts for lack of control of 10%. On September 30, 2018, when other inputs remain equal, if discount rate increases by 1%, the fair value will decrease by NT$72,717 thousand; if discount for lack of marketability increases by 1%, the fair value will decrease by NT$19,000 thousand; if discount for lack of control increases by 1%, the fair value will decrease by NT$19,000 thousand.

 

For the remaining few investments, the market approach is used to arrive at their fair values, for which the recent financing activities of investees, the market transaction prices of the similar companies and market conditions are considered.

 

In addition, the fair values of convertible bonds are determined by the present value of future cash flow based on a discount rate reflecting issuer’s credit spread and market conditions, combined with the fair value of conversion option estimated by the option pricing model considering recent financing activities of the investee and market transaction prices of the similar companies.

Except as detailed in the following table, the Company considers that the carrying amounts of financial instruments in the consolidated financial statements that are not measured at fair value approximate their fair values.

32.

SIGNIFICANT CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND UNRECOGNIZED COMMITMENTS

 

Significant contingent liabilities and unrecognized commitments of the Company as of the end of the reporting period, excluding those disclosed in other notes, were as follows:

 

 

a.

Under a technical cooperation agreement with Industrial Technology Research Institute, the R.O.C. Government or its designee approved by TSMC can use up to 35% of TSMC’s capacity provided TSMC’s outstanding commitments to its customers are not prejudiced. The term of this agreement is for five years beginning from January 1, 1987 and is automatically renewed for successive periods of five years unless otherwise terminated by either party with one year prior notice. As of September 30, 2019, the R.O.C. Government did not invoke such right.

 

 

b.

Under a Shareholders Agreement entered into with Philips and EDB Investments Pte Ltd. on March 30, 1999, the parties formed a joint venture company, SSMC, which is an integrated circuit foundry in Singapore. TSMC’s equity interest in SSMC was 32%. Nevertheless, in September 2006, Philips spun-off its semiconductor subsidiary which was renamed as NXP B.V. Further, TSMC and NXP B.V. purchased all the SSMC shares owned by EDB Investments Pte Ltd. pro rata according to the Shareholders Agreement on November 15, 2006. After the purchase, TSMC and NXP B.V. currently own approximately 39% and 61% of the SSMC shares, respectively. TSMC and NXP B.V. are required, in the aggregate, to purchase at least 70% of SSMC’s capacity, but TSMC alone is not required to purchase more than 28% of the capacity. If any party defaults on the commitment and the capacity utilization of SSMC falls below a specific percentage of its capacity, the defaulting party is required to compensate SSMC for all related unavoidable costs. There was no default from the aforementioned commitment as of September 30, 2019.

 

 

c.

In February 2019, Innovative Foundry Technologies LLC (“IFT”) filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware alleging that TSMC and TSMC Technology Inc. infringe five U.S. patents. IFT also filed a complaint in the U.S. International Trade Commission (the “ITC”) alleging that TSMC, TSMC North America, TSMC Technology Inc., and other companies infringe the same patents. The ITC instituted an investigation in March 2019.  Both parties agreed to end the dispute and the ITC

- 53 -


 

 

 

 

terminated the investigation in October 2019. The pending litigation in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware was dismissed at the same time.

 

 

d.

On September 28, 2017, TSMC was contacted by the European Commission (the “Commission”), which has asked us for information and documents concerning alleged anti-competitive practices in relation to semiconductor sales. We are cooperating with the Commission to provide the requested information and documents. In light of the fact that this proceeding is still in its preliminary stage, it is premature to predict how the case will proceed, the outcome of the proceeding or its impact.

 

 

e.

TSMC entered into long-term purchase agreements of material with multiple suppliers. The relative minimum purchase quantity and price are specified in the agreements.

 

 

f.

TSMC entered into a long-term purchase agreement of equipment. The relative purchase quantity and price are specified in the agreement.

 

 

g.

TSMC entered into long-term energy purchase agreements with multiple suppliers. The relative purchase period, quantity and price are specified in the agreements.

 

 

h.

Amounts available under unused letters of credit as of September 30, 2019, December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018 were NT$62,054 thousand, NT$70,702 thousand and NT$70,162 thousand, respectively.

SIGNIFICANT OPERATION LOSSES

 

On January 19, 2019, the Company discovered a wafer contamination issue in a fab in Taiwan caused by a batch of unqualified photoresist materials. After investigation, the Company immediately stopped using the unqualified materials. An estimated loss of NT$3,400,000 thousand related to this event was recognized in cost of revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

 

The Company experienced a computer virus outbreak on August 3, 2018, which affected a number of computer systems and fab tools, and consequently impacted wafer production in Taiwan. All the impacted tools have been recovered by August 6, 2018. The Company recognized a loss of NT$2,596,046 thousand related to this incident for the three months ended September 30, 2018, which was included in cost of revenue.
