Temasek Holdings’ Subsidiary, Singapore Technologies Semiconductors Pte Ltd’s, Tender Offer
     On March 1, 2007, STSPL, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Temasek Holdings, announced its intention to launch a voluntary conditional cash offer for the remaining ordinary shares and American Depositary Shares (ADSs) in our Company that STSPL does not already own (the Offer). As of January 31, 2007, STSPL owned approximately 35.56% of our outstanding ordinary shares. The information in the following paragraph is based on STSPL’s Offer announcement.
     The offer price will be S$1.75 for each ordinary share and S$17.50 for each ADS in cash. The Offer will be conditioned upon, among other matters, STSPL receiving acceptance of such number of ordinary shares and ADSs which, together with all other ordinary shares and ADSs owned, acquired or agreed to be acquired by STSPL, would represent more than 50% of our outstanding ordinary shares and ADSs following the close of the Offer. If ordinary shares and ADSs tendered into the Offer result in STSPL owning at least 90% of our outstanding ordinary shares and ADSs (other than those owned by STSPL and its related corporations at the commencement of the Offer), STSPL intends to offer a higher purchase price of S$1.88 per ordinary share or S$18.80 per ADS to all shareholders who accept the Offer, regardless of when their ordinary shares and ADSs are tendered. The Offer would also include an offer by STSPL for our outstanding $115,000,000 Convertible Notes due 2008 and $150,000,000 2.50% Convertible Notes due 2008. The offer for the convertible notes is conditioned on the offer for the ordinary shares and ADSs becoming unconditional in all respects.
     STSPL stated that it will send to our security holders the Offer to Purchase, which will contain the terms and conditions of the Offer, not earlier than 14 days and not later than 21 days from the date of the Offer announcement. STSPL announced that the Offer will remain open for acceptances by security holders for a period of not less than 20 U.S. business days or 28 calendar days after the date of posting of the Offer to Purchase, whichever is the longer.
     On March 1, 2007, we announced that our board of directors will appoint an independent financial adviser to advise the directors of our Company who are regarded as independent for the purposes of the Offer under the Take-Over Code (Special Committee). On March 3, 2007, our board of directors formed the Special Committee to review and consider the Offer and such other strategic alternatives available to the Company as the Special Committee may deem to be appropriate. The recommendations to security holders by our Special Committee and the reasons for those recommendations will be set forth in a circular of our Company (which will also contain the advice of the independent financial adviser appointed by our Special Committee) and our Company’s Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 filed with the SEC. Following their publication, these documents can be obtained without charge at www.sec.gov, www.sgx.com and www.statschippac.com.

Year Ended December 31, 2006 Compared to Year Ended December 25, 2005
Net Revenues
     We derive revenues primarily from test and packaging of array and leaded packages. Net revenues were $1,616.9 million in 2006, an increase of 39.7% compared to $1,157.3 million in 2005. The increase was primarily due to a continued growth in the semiconductor industry, coupled with a continuing trend towards increased outsourcing of test and packaging in 2006.
     Our packaging revenue in 2006 increased 43.0% to $1,194.3 million compared to 2005. Unit volumes of our total packaging in 2006 were 39.4% higher compared to 2005 and contributed to an increase of $332.8 million in revenue. The average selling prices for our services have generally decreased over product life cycles. Our ability to maintain or increase our average selling price will continue to be dependent upon our ability to selectively increase pricing and shift to higher margin packaging and test services. Average selling prices per pin for packaging services in 2006 increased 2.2% compared to 2005, primarily due to changes in product mix, and contributed to an increase of $18.2 million in revenue. Revenue from test and other services in 2006 increased 31.3% to $422.7 million compared to 2005.
     In 2006, revenue contribution from the communications market increased 1.5% over 2005, and represented 56.7% of our revenues in 2006, compared to 55.2% of our revenues in 2005. The revenue from the communications market remained relatively strong with continued demand for more complex, higher functionality mobile phone and infrastructure products. Revenue contribution from consumer, multi-applications and other markets in 2006 increased 1.3% over 2005, and represented 24.6% of our revenues in the 2006. Revenue contribution from personal computers market in 2006 decreased 2.8% over 2005 and represented 18.7% of our revenues in 2006. We expect to continue to depend on the communications, consumer and multi-applications, and personal computers market for substantially all of our net revenues.
Gross Profit
     Gross profit in 2006 was $326.2 million, an increase of $136.9 million compared to $189.2 million in 2005. Gross profit as a percentage of net revenues was 20.2% in 2006, compared to 16.4% in 2005. Gross profit in 2006 include $6.0 million of share-based compensation expense related to share options and employee share purchase rights under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123(R) which reduced gross margin by 0.3% during the year. In 2006, gross profit improved primarily as a result of better operating leverage, improved product mix, continued cost control measures and higher overall average selling price, partially offset by higher depreciation from our larger capital asset base and an increase in cost of materials. Overall equipment utilization was approximately 75% in 2006 compared to 72% in 2005. Our cost of revenues consist principally of

13


Table of Contents

fixed costs such as depreciation and leasing expenses and variable costs such as direct and indirect labor, materials and overhead expenses. We continue to experience higher cost as a result of external global economic factors such as higher substrate, gold and oil prices which affected our cost of materials and the adverse effect of the strengthening of the Singapore dollar, South Korean Won, Chinese Renminbi and Malaysian Ringgit against the U.S. dollar when compared to 2005.
Selling, General and Administrative
     Selling, general and administrative expenses were $139.5 million in 2006, an increase of 2.7% compared to $135.8 million in 2005. As a percentage of net revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses were 8.6% in 2006 compared to 11.7% in 2005. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in 2006 was primarily a result of higher share-based compensation expense, higher payroll expenses resulting from additional headcount, increased cost of general business support for our overall business growth and higher Sarbanes-Oxley Act compliance related expenses, partially offset by certain intangible assets related to the merger of former ST Assembly Test Services Ltd (STATS) and ChipPAC, Inc. (ChipPAC) becoming fully amortized. In 2006, share-based compensation expense was $6.1 million under SFAS 123(R) compared to $0.7 million under APB 25 in 2005.
Research and Development
     Research and development expenses were $30.4 million in 2006 compared to $26.1 million in 2005, an increase of $4.4 million. Research and development expenses increased primarily due to an increase in headcount and the inclusion of share-based compensation expense of $1.6 million under SFAS 123(R) in 2006. As a percentage of net revenues, research and development expenses were 1.9% in 2006 compared to 2.3% in 2005.
Restructuring Charges
     In the third quarter of 2006 and the first quarter of 2005, certain restructuring plans were executed to realign our organization and reduce operating costs to better align our expenses with revenues, which resulted in a total reduction in workforce of 556 and 88 employees, respectively, related to the restructuring. Severance and related charges of $1.9 million and $0.8 million were incurred and expensed in the third quarter of 2006 and the first quarter of 2005, respectively.
Goodwill Impairment
     As required by U.S. GAAP, we performed our annual test for impairment in 2006 and 2005, and determined that the fair value of the reporting units exceeded their carrying value, and therefore goodwill was not impaired.
Net Interest Income (Expense)
     Net interest expense was $40.4 million in 2006 compared to $36.2 million in 2005. Interest income was $5.4 million in 2006 compared to $6.4 million in 2005. The decrease in interest income in 2006 was primarily due to a decrease in cash equivalents and marketable securities held by us compared to 2005.
     Interest expense was $45.8 million in 2006 compared to $42.6 million in 2005. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to a full year of interest on the $150.0 million 7.5% senior notes due 2010 in 2006 compared to approximately half year of interest in 2005 as the notes were issued in July 2005 and an increase in foreign loans of $12.0 million in South Korea and $50.3 million in Taiwan. The increase was partially offset by the reduction in interest expense as a result of our redemption and repurchase of $168.5 million (out of $200.0 million) aggregate principal amount of our 1.75% convertible notes due 2007, a repurchase of $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 8.0% convertible subordinated notes due 2011 and repayment of short-term and long-term debts in South Korea and long-term debts in Taiwan. Total outstanding interest-bearing debt was $762.9 million and $821.7 million as of December 31, 2006 and December 25, 2005, respectively.
Foreign Currency Exchange Gain (Loss)
     Net foreign currency exchange gain or (loss) was $(1.6) million in 2006 compared to $0.5 million in 2005. The non-cash losses in 2006 were due primarily to the fluctuations of the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Singapore dollar, the South Korean Won and the Chinese Renminbi.
Other Non-Operating Income (Expense)
     Net other non-operating income was $0.1 million in 2006 compared to net other non-operating (expense) of $(1.1) million in 2005. The fluctuation resulted from the write-off of capitalized debt issuance cost of $1.7 million from the repurchase and redemption of our 1.75% convertible notes due 2007 in 2005.

Income Tax Expense
     We have recorded a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount we believe is more likely than not to be realized. In the event that deferred tax assets would be realizable in the future in excess of the net recorded amount, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would increase income in the period such determination was made. Our consolidated income tax expense was $25.8 million in 2006 compared to $9.7 million in 2005 based on the mix of tax rates and taxable income across the various jurisdictions in which we do business. Our primary tax jurisdictions are Singapore, South Korea, China, Malaysia, Taiwan and the United States of America.
Year Ended December 25, 2005 Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2004
Net Revenues
     Net revenues were $1,157.3 million in 2005, an increase of 50.5% compared to $769.1 million in 2004. The increase was primarily due to our acquisition of ChipPAC (ChipPAC’s results of operations were consolidated from August 5, 2004) and a return to growth in the semiconductor industry coupled with a trend towards increased outsourcing of test and packaging. Following our merger, revenue attributable to ChipPAC’s operations has had a relatively larger impact on our packaging revenue than on our test revenue.
     Our packaging revenue in 2005 increased 76.7% to $835.3 million compared to 2004. Unit volumes of our total packaging increased 76.4% in 2005 compared to 2004, and contributed to an increase of $426.4 million in revenue. Average selling prices for our services have generally declined over product life cycles. Average selling prices per pin for packaging services in 2005 decreased 7.2%, compared to 2004, primarily due to changes in product mix, and contributed to a decrease of $63.9 million in revenue. We experienced increased demand for our three-dimensional packaging, Fine Pitch BGA (FBGA) and Plastic BGA (PBGA) packaging in 2005. Test revenue in 2005 increased 8.9% to $322.0 million compared to 2004. Our increase in test revenue from our acquisition of ChipPAC was partially offset by declining average selling prices.
     In 2005, revenue from the communications market decreased by 4.9% over 2004, and contributed 55.2% of our net revenues in 2005 compared to 60.1% of our net revenues in 2004. The revenue from the communications market remained relatively strong with continued demand for more complex, higher functionality mobile phone and infrastructure products. Revenue from consumer, multi-applications and other markets increased 6.2% over 2004 and contributed 23.3% of our net revenues in 2005. Revenue from the personal computers market decreased 1.3% over 2004 and contributed 21.5% of our net revenues in 2005. We expect to continue to be dependent on the communications, consumer and multi-applications, and personal computers markets for substantially all of our net revenues.
Gross Profit
     Gross profit in 2005 was $189.2 million, an increase of $63.6 million compared to $125.6 million in 2004. Gross margin as a percentage of net revenues was 16.4% in 2005 compared to 16.3% in 2004. In 2005, gross profit improved primarily as a result of higher equipment utilization, depreciation savings from the change in equipment useful lives and continued cost control measures, including a reduction in workforce, partially offset by lower overall average selling prices, changes in product mix and an increase in cost of materials. Overall equipment utilization was approximately 72% in 2005 compared to 69% in 2004. We continued to experience pressure to reduce average selling prices in 2005. Our cost of revenues consist principally of fixed costs such as depreciation and leasing expenses and variable costs such as direct and indirect labor, materials and overhead expenses. We also experienced continued higher cost as a result of external global economic factors such as higher gold prices, higher oil prices, and the adverse effect of the strengthening of the Singapore dollar, South Korean Won and Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar in 2005 when compared to 2004.
Selling, General and Administrative
     Selling, general and administrative expenses were $135.8 million in 2005, an increase of 59.8% compared to $85.0 million in 2004. As a percentage of net revenues, selling, general and administrative expenses were 11.7% in 2005, compared to 11.0% in 2004. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses in 2005 was primarily due to the higher headcount resulting from our merger with ChipPAC, the inclusion of merger and integration expenses, and ChipPAC expenses which amounted to $84.3 million. The merger and integration expenses and ChipPAC expenses in 2005 included the amortization of the intangible assets which amounted to $38.1 million and stock-based compensation expenses of $0.7 million mainly resulting from the expensing of the

15


Table of Contents

unearned compensation on unvested options recorded in the ChipPAC acquisition. The increase was partially offset by continued measures to control costs and manage discretionary expenses in 2005.
Research and Development
     Research and development expenses in 2005 were $26.1 million compared to $17.6 million in 2004, an increase of $8.5 million. Research and development expenses had increased primarily due to the inclusion of ChipPAC expenses which amounted to $13.9 million, inclusive of the amortization of the acquired intangible assets which amounted to $2.4 million in 2005. However, these expenses were partially offset by depreciation savings from the change in equipment useful lives and continued measures to control costs and manage discretionary expense.
Restructuring Charges
     During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, certain restructuring plans were executed to realign our organization and reduce operating costs to better align our expenses with revenues. We had a total reduction in workforce of 88 employees related to the restructuring. Severance and related charges of $0.8 million were expensed in 2005. There were no restructuring charges incurred in 2004.
Goodwill Impairment
     As required by U.S. GAAP, we performed our annual test for impairment in 2005, and determined that the fair value of the reporting units exceeded their carrying value, and therefore goodwill was not impaired. In 2004, we impaired $453.0 million of goodwill related to our acquisition of ChipPAC. We will continue to perform a test for goodwill impairment at least annually as required by U.S. GAAP.
Net Interest Income (Expense)
     Net interest expense was $36.2 million in 2005 compared to $24.4 million in 2004. Net interest expense consisted of interest income of $6.4 million and interest expense of $42.6 million in 2005 and interest income of $4.4 million and interest expense of $28.8 million in 2004. The increase in interest income in 2005 was primarily due to an increase of the marketable securities held by us. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to interest on debts assumed as a result of our merger with ChipPAC, and our accrued interest on the $215.0 million 6.75% senior notes due 2011 issued in November 2004, the $150.0 million 7.5% senior notes due 2010 issued in July 2005, an increase in foreign loans of $19.7 million in South Korea and $4.6 million in Taiwan, and the $99.0 million short-term debts which was borrowed and repaid in 2005. The increase was partially offset by the reduction in interest expense as a result of our redemption and repurchase of $168.5 million (out of $200.0 million) aggregate principal amount of our 1.75% convertible notes due 2007 and repayment of certain long-term debts in South Korea and Taiwan, respectively. Total outstanding interest-bearing debt was $821.7 million and $834.8 million as of December 25, 2005 and December 31, 2004, respectively.
Foreign Currency Exchange Gain (Loss)
     Net foreign currency exchange gain was $0.5 million in 2005, compared to net foreign currency exchange loss of $1.1 million in 2004. These non-cash losses and gains were primarily due to the fluctuations between the exchange rate of the United States dollar and the Singapore dollar, the South Korean Won and the Japanese yen.
Other Non-Operating Income (Expense)
     Other non-operating expense, net was $1.1 million in 2005 compared to $0.9 million in 2004. The increase was primarily due to write-off of capitalized debt issuance cost of $1.7 million from the repurchase and redemption of our 1.75% convertible notes due 2007 in 2005.
Income Tax Expense
     We have recorded a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount we believe is more likely than not to be realized. In the event that deferred tax assets would be realizable in the future in excess of the net recorded amount, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset would increase income in the period such determination was made. We have a mix of tax rates across the various jurisdictions in which we do business. Our primary tax jurisdictions are Singapore, South Korea, China, Malaysia, Taiwan and the United States of America. Our consolidated income taxes were $9.7 million in 2005 compared to $7.9 million in 2004.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
     Our principal source of liquidity consists of cash flows from operating activities, bank facilities, debt financing, and our existing cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. As at December 31, 2006, we had cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities of $231.9 million. We also have available lines of credit and banking facilities consisting of loans, letter of credits and bank guarantees, including those available to our consolidated subsidiaries, which amounted to an aggregate of $447.6 million, of which $105.0 million was utilized as of December 31, 2006. Our liquidity needs arise primarily from servicing our outstanding debts, working capital needs and the funding of capital expenditures. Our capital expenditures are largely driven by the demand for our services, primarily to increase our packaging and testing capacity, to replace packaging and testing equipment from time to time, and to expand our facilities. Depending on business conditions, we expect our capital expenditure to be approximately $250.0 million in 2007 as our capital expenditure spending continues to be targeted at demand that we see from our customers and on long-term strategic investments. We spent $348.5 million on capital expenditures in 2006, compared to $277.7 million in 2005. We experienced an increase in capital expenditure in 2006 as we are expanding our assets across the various geographic operating locations based on the expected business growth and certain long-term strategic investments.
     At the annual general meeting in April 2006, our shareholders approved the repurchase of up to approximately 50 million ordinary shares (2.5% of the issued ordinary share capital as of the date of the annual general meeting). The approved amount for share repurchases under this shareholders’ mandate will terminate on the earlier of the date on which the next annual general meeting is held or the date which the approval is revoked or varied. As of December 31, 2006, we have not repurchased any shares. We intend to seek a renewal of the shareholders’ mandate in our next annual general meeting. We may use our available funds, draw down on our available lines of credit or seek additional financing or a combination of these to finance our repurchase of our ordinary shares.
     We believe that our cash on hand, existing credit facilities and anticipated cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet our currently anticipated capital expenditure requirements, investment requirements, share repurchases, as well as capital lease and debt service repayment obligations for 2007. Our debt service repayment obligations for 2007 include our obligation to repay the remaining $31.5 million aggregate principal amount of our 1.75% convertible notes upon maturity in March 2007 and to meet the redemption of the outstanding $115.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 0% convertible notes if our noteholders exercise their put option thereunder in November 2007. Further, STSPL’s tender offer for the remaining shares in our Company that STSPL does not already own, as described above under “Temasek Holdings’ Subsidiary, Singapore Technologies Semiconductors Pte Ltd’s, Tender Offer”, if consummated, would result in a change in control of our Company as defined in the indenture relating to our $150.0 million of 2.5% convertible subordinated notes due 2008. In such an event, holders of our 2.5% convertible subordinated notes due 2008 will have the right to require us to repurchase all or a portion of their notes. If our capital expenditure requirements exceed our expectations as a result of higher than anticipated growth in the semiconductor industry, acquisition or investment opportunities, the expansion of our business or otherwise, or if our cash flows from operations are lower than anticipated, including as a result of an unexpected decrease in demand for our services due to a downturn in the semiconductor industry or otherwise, we may be required to obtain additional debt or equity financing from time to time depending on prevailing market conditions. In such events, there can be no assurance that additional financing will be available or, if available, that such financings will be obtained on terms favorable to us or that any additional financing will not be dilutive to our shareholders or creditors.
We expect to incur significant expenses in investment banking, legal and other fees and use significant amounts of internal resources in connection with STSPL’s tender offer. It is not possible to accurately predict the amount of money or internal resources that will be required.

This facility is secured by a pledge of Winstek’s equipment with net book value of $50.2 million as of December 31, 2006. The proceeds from this facility were primarily used to repay certain of Winstek’s other credit facilities.
     On October 16, 2006, we repurchased the outstanding $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 8.0% convertible subordinated notes due 2011. We paid a total amount of $50.5 million (excluding interest) in respect of the subordinated convertible notes. The repurchase was financed with our current working capital, including our cash and cash equivalents.

Market Risks
     We are exposed to financial market risks, including changes in currency exchange rates and interest rates. To mitigate the currency exchange risks, a substantial majority of our revenue, material and equipment supplies are transacted in U.S. dollars. We may employ derivative instruments such as forward foreign currency swaps, foreign currency contracts and options and interest rate swaps to manage our foreign exchange and interest rate exposures. These instruments are generally used to reduce or eliminate the financial risks associated with our assets and liabilities and not for trading purposes.
Investment and Interest Rates
     Our exposure to market risk associated with changes in interest rates primarily relates to our investment portfolio and debt obligations. We place our investments in time deposits and marketable securities. We mitigate default risk by investing in marketable securities that are of at least an “A” rating, as assigned by an internationally recognized credit rating organization, and major Singapore banks and government-linked companies. We have no material cash flow exposure due to rate changes for cash equivalents and short-term investments. The fair value of fixed rate debts will vary as interest rates change. The fair value of convertible notes is also impacted by the market price of our ordinary shares or ADSs. As of December 31, 2006, our short-term and long-term debt obligations for the $31.5 million and $115.0 million senior unsecured and unsubordinated convertible notes due March 18, 2007 and November 7, 2008, respectively, the $150.0 million subordinated convertible notes due June 1, 2008 and the $215.0 million and $150.0 million senior notes due November 15, 2011 and July 19, 2010, respectively, bear fixed interest rate. The convertible notes due March 18, 2007 bear interest at a rate of 1.75% per annum and have a yield to maturity of 4.91%. The convertible notes due November 7, 2008 have a yield to maturity of 4.25%. The subordinated convertible notes due 2008, and senior notes due 2011 and 2010 bear interest of 2.5%, 6.75% and 7.5% per annum, respectively.
Currency Exchange Rates
     A portion of our costs is denominated in various foreign currencies, like the Singapore dollar, the Malaysian Ringgit, the South Korean Won, the Chinese Renminbi, the New Taiwan dollar and the Japanese yen. As a result, changes in the exchange rates of these currencies or any other applicable currencies to the U.S. dollar will affect our cost of goods sold and operating margins and could result in exchange losses. We have entered into foreign currency contracts to mitigate financial risks associated with payroll costs, materials costs and other costs denominated in Singapore dollars, South Korean Won and Malaysia Ringgit to benefit from our expectations of future exchange rate fluctuations.
     Based on our overall currency rate exposure, we have adopted a foreign currency hedging policy for committed or forecasted currency exposures. As of December 31, 2006, we had a series of foreign currency forward contracts with total contract value of approximately $147.0 million, to hedge against fluctuation in Singapore dollars, South Korean Won and Malaysian Ringgit. We may utilize foreign currency swaps as well as foreign exchange forward contracts and options. These programs reduce, but do not always entirely eliminate the impact of currency exchange movements. The goal of the hedging policy is to effectively manage risk associated with fluctuations in the value of the foreign currency, thereby making financial results more stable and predictable. However, we cannot assure you that any hedging policy we implement will be effective and we may experience reduced operating margins if any such policies are unsuccessful.
     We have performed sensitivity analyses as of December 31, 2006 and December 25, 2005 by measuring the change in fair values arising from a hypothetical 10% adverse movement in the exchange rates for all the currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, with all other variables held constant. The analyses cover our foreign currencies monetary denominated assets and liabilities. The foreign currency exchange rates we used were based on our closing exchange rates as of December 31, 2006 and December 25, 2005. The sensitivity analyses indicated that a hypothetical 10% adverse movement, after taking into account offsetting positions, would result in a further foreign exchange loss of $3.9 million and $1.4 million as of December 31, 2006 and December 25, 2005, respectively.
     Currency, maturity, interest rate and fair value information relating to our marketable securities and, short-term and long-term debt are disclosed in Notes 1(m), 4, 15, 17 and 27 to our audited consolidated financial statements, respectively.

Commodity Price
     We purchase certain raw materials in the normal course of business, which are affected by commodity prices. Therefore, we are exposed to some price volatility related to various market conditions outside our control. However, we employ various purchasing and pricing contract techniques in an effort to minimize volatility. Generally these techniques include setting in advance the price for products to be delivered in the future. We do not generally make use of financial instruments to hedge commodity prices, partly because of the contract pricing utilized. While price volatility can occur, which would impact profit margins, there are generally alternative suppliers available.
Limitations
     Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time and are based on relevant market information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

MANAGEMENT’S ANNUAL REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act.
Internal control over financial reporting refers to a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
  pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
  provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and members of our board of directors; and
  provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.
Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process, and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
Management evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006 using the framework set forth in the report of the Treadway Commission’s Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO), “Internal Control — Integrated Framework”.
Based on the foregoing, management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2006. Our independent registered public accounting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers, has issued an audit report on management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, which is included herein.

Our opinions, based on our audits, are presented below.
Consolidated financial statements
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income, of shareholders’ equity and of cash flows, present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of STATS ChipPAC Ltd. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 and December 25, 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit of financial statements includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
As discussed in Notes 1(x) and 23 to the financial statements, the Company changed the manner in which it accounts for share-based compensation in 2006.
Internal control over financial reporting
Also, in our opinion, management’s assessment, included in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, that the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006 based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), is fairly stated, in all material respects. Furthermore, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the COSO. The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on management’s assessment and on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. An audit of internal control over financial reporting includes obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we consider necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

1.   Background and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
     (a) Business and Organization
STATS ChipPAC Ltd. (“STATS ChipPAC” or “STATS” prior to consummation of the merger, and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is an independent provider of a full range of semiconductor test and packaging services. The Company was formed in connection with the merger of ST Assembly Test Services Ltd and ChipPAC, Inc. (“ChipPAC”), which was consummated on August 5, 2004. In the merger, former ChipPAC stockholders received 0.87 American Depositary Shares of STATS for each share of ChipPAC Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share, owned by such stockholder. Upon consummation of the merger, STATS’ and ChipPAC’s former shareholders owned approximately 56% and 44%, respectively, of the Company’s total shares outstanding. As a result of the merger, ChipPAC became a wholly-owned subsidiary of STATS. The transaction was accounted for using the purchase method. Subsequent to the merger, STATS was renamed STATS ChipPAC Ltd.
In 2005, the Company’s Taiwan subsidiary, Winstek Semiconductor Corporation (“Winstek”), issued 10,555,556 shares of its capital stock, par value NT$10 per share, in a public offering at an offering price of NT$12.80 per share. The shares of Winstek are listed on the Taiwan over-the-counter securities market. The Company recognized a gain of $61 on the resulting dilution of interest within shareholders’ equity. The Company owned approximately 52% of Winstek’s total shares outstanding as of December 31, 2006.
The Company has operations in Singapore, South Korea, China, Malaysia, Taiwan, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Japan and in the United States of America, its principal market.
Temasek Holdings (Private) Limited (“Temasek Holdings”), through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Singapore Technologies Semiconductors Pte Ltd (“STSPL”), beneficially owned approximately 36% of the Company as of December 31, 2006. Temasek Holdings, a private limited company incorporated in Singapore, is wholly-owned by the Minister for Finance (Incorporated) of Singapore, a body constituted by the Minister for Finance (Incorporation) Act (Cap. 183).
     (b) Fiscal Year
Since the beginning of fiscal 2005, the Company has employed fiscal year and fiscal quarter reporting periods. STATS ChipPAC’s 52-53 week fiscal year ends on the Sunday nearest to December 31. STATS ChipPAC’s fiscal quarters end on a Sunday and are generally thirteen weeks in length. Fiscal year 2006, a 53-week year, ended on December 31, 2006, and fiscal year 2005, a 52-week year, ended on December 25, 2005. Unless otherwise stated, all years and dates refer to STATS ChipPAC’s fiscal years.
     (c) Accounting Principles
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) consistently applied for all periods.
     (d) Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of STATS ChipPAC and its majority-owned subsidiaries. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
     (e) Issuances of Stock by Subsidiaries
Changes in the Company’s proportionate share of the underlying net equity of a subsidiary, which result from the issuance of additional stocks to third parties, are recognized as increases or decreases to shareholders’ equity.

     (f) Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates made by management include: the useful lives of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets as well as future cash flows to be generated by those assets; discounts and allowances relating to volume purchases and other incentive programs offered to customers, allowances for doubtful accounts, sales returns; valuation allowances for deferred tax assets; provision for inventory losses; fair value of reporting units; and contingent liabilities, among others. Determining the fair value of purchased intangible asset is judgmental in nature and involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions include revenue growth rates and operating margins used to calculate projected future cash flows, risk-adjusted discount rates, assumed royalty rates, future economic and market conditions and determination of appropriate market comparables. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
     (g) Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made in prior years’ financial statements to conform with classifications used in the current year.
     (h) Foreign Currency Transactions
The Company predominantly utilizes the U.S. dollar as its functional currency. Assets and liabilities which are denominated in foreign currencies are converted into the functional currency at the rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Income and expenses which are denominated in foreign currencies are converted at the average rates of exchange prevailing during the period. Foreign currency transaction gains or losses are included in results of operations.
Winstek designates the New Taiwan Dollar as its functional currency. Where the functional currency of a subsidiary is other than the Company’s U.S. dollar reporting currency, the financial statements are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet date for assets and liabilities and average exchange rates for the reporting period for the results of operations. Adjustments resulting from translation of such foreign subsidiary financial statements are reported within accumulated other comprehensive loss, which is reflected as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.
     (i) Certain Risks and Concentrations
The Company’s customers are comprised of companies in the semiconductor industry located primarily in the United States of America, Europe and Asia. The semiconductor industry is highly cyclical and experiences significant fluctuations in customer demand, evolving industry standards, competitive pricing pressure that leads to steady declines in average selling prices, rapid technological changes, risk associated with foreign currencies and enforcement of intellectual property rights. Additionally, the market in which the Company operates is very competitive. As a result of these industry and market characteristics, key elements of competition in the independent semiconductor packaging market include breath of packaging offerings, time-to-market, technical competence, design services quality, production yields, reliability of customer service and price.
The Company’s largest customer accounted for approximately 21%, 12% and 11% of revenues in 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. The Company’s five largest customers collectively accounted for approximately 56%, 49% and 43% of revenues in 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. The decommitment from any major customer for products, or the loss of or default by any of these major customers could have an adverse effect upon the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. The Company mitigates the concentration of credit risk in trade receivables through the Company’s credit evaluation process, credit policies, credit control and collection procedures.

Cash and cash equivalents are deposited with financial institutions primarily in Singapore, South Korea, China, Malaysia, British Virgin Islands, Taiwan and the United States of America. Deposits in the financial institutions may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits, if any. The Company utilizes forward contracts to protect against the effects of foreign currency fluctuations. Such contracts involve the risk of non-performance by the counterparty, which could result in a material loss. The Company has not experienced any losses to date from instruments held with financial institutions.
South Korean, Chinese and Malaysian foreign currency exchange regulators may place restrictions on the flow of foreign funds into and out of those countries. The Company is required to comply with these regulations when entering into transactions in foreign currencies in South Korea, China and Malaysia.
     (j) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into cash and have original maturities of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents consisted of cash, deposit accounts, money market funds and foreign government treasury bills at December 31, 2006.
     (k) Restricted Cash
Restricted cash consists of time deposits and government bonds held in connection with foreign regulatory requirement and as collateral for bank loans. As of December 25, 2005 and December 31, 2006, there were $376 and $nil of short-term restricted cash and $2,232 and $981 of long-term restricted cash, respectively.
     (l) Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company recognizes all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measures those instruments at fair value. Changes in the fair value of those instruments will be reported in earnings or other comprehensive income depending on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The accounting for gains and losses associated with changes in the fair value of derivatives and the effect on the consolidated financial statements will depend on the derivatives’ hedge designation and whether the hedge is highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in the fair values of cash flows of the asset or liability hedged.
The Company has established risk management policies for committed or forecasted exposures to protect against volatility of future cash flows. These programs reduce, but do not always entirely eliminate, the impact of the currency exchange or commodity price movements.
In 2005 and 2006, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts to protect the Company from fluctuations in exchange rates. At December 25, 2005, and December 31, 2006, the Company had a series of foreign currency forward contracts qualifying as cash flow hedges with total contract value of approximately $68,000 and $147,000, respectively. In 2005, the Company entered into a series of gold forward contracts qualifying as cash flow hedges with total contract value of approximately $7,000 to reduce exposure of the commodity price risk related to gold usage in the cost of materials. The duration of these instruments are generally less than 12 months. At December 31, 2006, the Company had realized and unrealized gain of $3,157 and $3,058, respectively, on its foreign currency forward contracts. At December 25, 2005, the Company had realized and unrealized gain of $3,143 and $133, respectively, on its foreign currency forward and gold forward contracts. Certain foreign currency forward contracts to economically hedge certain committed exposures are not designated as hedges. Accordingly, the changes in fair value of these foreign currency forward contracts are reported in earnings.
     (m) Marketable Securities
Marketable securities at December 25, 2005 and December 31, 2006 consist of corporate debt securities and certificates of deposits denominated in U.S. dollars, Singapore dollars, Chinese Renminbi and New Taiwan dollars. The Company classifies its securities in one of three categories: trading, available-for-sale, or held-to-maturity. Trading securities are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term. Held-to-maturity securities are those securities in which the Company has the ability and intent to hold the security until maturity. All securities not included in trading or held-to-maturity are classified as available-for-sale.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
In thousands of U.S. Dollars (except per share data)
Trading and available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value. Held-to-maturity securities are recorded at amortized cost, adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts. Unrealized holding gains and losses on trading securities are included in earnings. Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of the related tax effect if any, on available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and are reported as a separate component of other comprehensive loss until realized. Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale securities are determined on a specific identification basis.
A decline in the market value of individual available-for-sale or held-to-maturity securities below cost that is deemed to be other than temporary results in a reduction in its carrying amount to fair value, with the impairment charged to earnings and a new cost basis for the security being established. Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted over the life of the related held-to-maturity security as an adjustment to yield using the effective interest method. Dividend and interest income are recognized when earned.
     (n) Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of standard cost, which approximates actual cost determined on the weighted average basis, or market value. The Company generally does not take ownership of customer supplied semiconductors, and accordingly does not include them as part of the Company’s inventories.
     (o) Equity Method Investments
Investments in entities in which the Company can exercise significant influence, but owns less than a majority equity interest are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The Company’s unrealized profit arising from sales by the Company to equity method investee are eliminated to the extent of the Company’s ownership. In 2006, the Company acquired a 25% shareholding in Micro Assembly Technologies Limited (“MAT”) for $10,154.
     (p) Business Combination
Business combinations are accounted for using the purchase method accounting. Business combinations which are accounted for under the purchase method accounting include the results of operations of the acquired business from the effective date of acquisition. Any excess of the purchase price over estimated fair values of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.
     (q) Goodwill
The Company tests goodwill for impairment on an annual basis in the designated quarters for its different reporting units, and whenever circumstances indicate the carrying value of the goodwill may have been impaired. The impairment test is performed by first comparing the fair value of the applicable reporting unit to its carrying value. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the impairment test is performed to determine the amount of impairment loss, if any. The second step of the test involves the comparison of the implied fair value of the goodwill to its carrying value. If the carrying value of reporting unit goodwill exceeds its implied fair value, an impairment loss is recognized for an amount equal to the excess. The implied fair value of reporting unit is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill recognized in a purchase business combination.
The estimates of fair value of a reporting unit are determined using various valuation techniques with the primary technique being a discounted cash flow analysis. A discounted cash flow analysis requires the Company to make various judgmental assumptions including assumptions about future cash flows, growth rates and discount rates. The assumptions about future cash flows and growth rates are based on the Company’s budget and long-term plans. In estimating fair values of its reporting units, the Company also uses comparable market analyses.

     (r) Intangible Assets
The Company acquires patent rights and technology licenses from other companies for use in its processes. Cost of the technology licenses is amortized over the shorter of the useful life or license period. In addition, intangible assets acquired in business combinations accounted for under the purchase method of accounting are recorded at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at the date of acquisition. In connection with the merger with ChipPAC, the cost of intangible assets acquired comprising tradenames, technology, intellectual property and customer relationships, software and licenses, were recorded based on the fair values of those intangible assets on August 5, 2004 based on management’s estimate of the fair value of these intangible assets. Management considered a number of factors when estimating fair value, including appraisals, discounted cash flow analysis, estimated royalty rates and appropriate market comparables.
Acquired intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is calculated on the straight-line method over the following periods:
     
Tradenames
  7 years
Technology and intellectual property
  10 years
Customer relationships
  2 years
Software and licenses
  3 to 5 years
     (s) Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated on the straight-line method over the following periods:
     
Land use rights
  50 to 99 years
Building, mechanical and electrical installation
  3 to 25 years
Equipment
  2 to 8 years
No depreciation is provided on property, plant and equipment under installation or construction and freehold land. Repairs and replacements of a routine nature are expensed, while those that extend the life of an asset are capitalized.
Plant and equipment under capital leases are stated at the present value of minimum lease payments and are amortized straight-line over the estimated useful life of the assets.
     (t) Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recoverability of a long-lived asset is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount to the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset. If such asset is considered to be impaired, the impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of a long-lived asset exceeds its fair value.
For long-lived assets held for sale, the carrying value is measured at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell and depreciation is ceased. Long-lived assets to be abandoned will be considered held and used until it is disposed of.
     (u) Comprehensive Income (Loss)
The Company applies SFAS No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income” with respect to reporting and presentation of comprehensive income (loss) and its components in a full set of financial statements. Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income, foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gain or loss on available-for-sale marketable securities and hedging instruments, and is presented in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

     (v) Revenue Recognition
Revenue is derived primarily from wafer probe and bumping, packaging and testing of semiconductor integrated circuits. Net revenues represent the invoiced value of services rendered net of returns, trade discounts and allowances, and excluding goods and services tax.
Revenue is recognized when there is evidence of an arrangement, fees are fixed or determinable, collectibility is reasonably assured, the service has been rendered, the revenue to be recognized is billable under the terms of the arrangement and not contingent upon completion of undelivered services, and, where applicable, delivery has occurred and risk of loss has passed to the customer. Such policies are consistent with the provisions in Securities Exchange Commission’s Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.”
The Company’s sales arrangement include probe, bumping, packaging or test services sold on a standalone basis, as well as multiple-element arrangements where probe, bumping, packaging, test, and in some cases, pre-production and post-production services are provided together. Where arrangements provide for multiple elements, elements are either combined into one single unit of accounting or treated as separate units of accounting depending on whether certain specified criteria are met. Revenue is allocated to each unit of accounting based on fair value, determined by reference to prices of services sold on a standalone basis.
The Company generally does not take ownership of customer supplied semiconductors as these materials are sent to the Company on a consignment basis. Accordingly, the values of the customer supplied materials are neither reflected in revenue nor in cost of revenue.
Provisions are made for estimates of potential sales returns and discounts allowance for volume purchases and early payments and are recorded as a deduction from gross revenue based upon historical experience and expectations of customers’ ultimate purchase levels and timing of payment. Actual revenues may differ from estimates if future customer purchases or payment timing differ, which may happen as a result of changes in general economic conditions, market demand for the customers’ products, or by customers’ desire to achieve payment timing discounts. Actual returns and discounts have not historically been significantly different from estimates. In addition, specific returns and discounts are provided for at the time their existence is known and the amounts are estimable.
The following sets forth the percentage of net revenues by packaging products group and testing services:
                         
    Year Ended
    December 31,   December 25,   December 31,
    2004   2005   2006
Revenue
                       
— packaging — array
    40.6 %     50.2 %     55.5 %
— packaging — leaded
    20.9       22.0       18.3  
— test and other services
    38.5       27.8       26.2  
 
                       
Total
    100.0 %     100.0 %     100.0 %
 
                       
Provisions are made for collectibility of accounts receivable when there is doubt as to the collectibility of individual accounts. Collectibility is assessed based on the age of the balance, the customer’s historical payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends.
     (w) Grants
Asset-related government grants consist of grants for the purchase of equipment used for research and development activities. Asset-related grants are presented in the consolidated balance sheet as deferred grants and are credited to income on the straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the relevant assets.
Income-related government grants are subsidies of training and research and development expenses. Income-related grants are credited to income when it becomes probable that expenditures already incurred will constitute qualifying expenditures for purposes of reimbursement under the grants, which is typically substantially concurrent with the expenditures.

There are no restrictions on transferring technology or manufacturing products developed with government grants.
     (x) Share-Based Compensation
Share-based compensation represents the cost related to share-based awards made to employees and directors. Effective December 26, 2005, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”), which requires the measurement of share-based compensation expense for all share-based payment awards based on estimated fair value. The Company measures grant-date fair value estimates, and recognizes the share-based compensation expense on a graded vesting basis net of estimated forfeitures over the requisite service period. Prior to December 26, 2005, the Company measured share-based employee compensation expense in accordance with the intrinsic method of APB No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”), and its related interpretations, and included pro forma information in accordance with SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”) as amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure.”
In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission released SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, “Share-Based Payment” (“SAB 107”). SAB 107 contains interpretive guidance related to the interaction between SFAS 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations, as well as provides the SEC’s views regarding the valuation of share-based payment. The Company has applied the provisions of SAB 107 in its adoption of SFAS 123(R). At December 31, 2006, the Company has four share-based compensation plans, which are more fully described in Note 23.
     (y) Employee Benefit Plans
Winstek operates a defined benefit retirement plan for a substantial portion of its employees in Taiwan in accordance with the Labor Standards Law in Taiwan. Pension benefits are generally based on years of service and average salary for the six months prior to the approved retirement date. Winstek revised its contribution in 2006 from 2% to 6% of eligible wages and salaries on a monthly basis to a pension fund maintained with the Central Trust of China, as required by the Labor Standards Law. At each year end, Winstek actuarially determines pension benefit costs and obligations using the projected unit credit method, and the amounts calculated depend on a variety of assumptions. These assumptions include discount rates, rates for expected returns on plan assets, mortality rates and retirement rates. The funding of the pension plan is determined in accordance with statutory funding requirements. Winstek is obligated to make up any shortfall in the plan’s assets in meeting the benefits accrued to the participating staff. As at December 31, 2006, there was no shortfall in the plan’s assets. Total pension plan expenses in 2004, 2005 and 2006 were approximately $76, $55 and $5, respectively.
STATS ChipPAC, Inc. and STATS ChipPAC Test Services, Inc. have a 401(k) savings plan where the Company matches 50% of employee contributions up to 6% of eligible employee compensation. The Company’s matching contributions under the 401(k) plan were $320, $395 and $457 in 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively. The matching contributions are accrued monthly and adjusted when the actual amounts are calculated. The expenses relating to the plan are $15 per person per quarter and are accrued on a monthly basis. Returns of the 401(k) plan from investments in mutual funds are calculated daily by an external administrator who administers the plan.
Employees with more than one year of service are entitled to receive a lump-sum payment upon termination of their employment with STATS ChipPAC Korea Ltd. (“STATS ChipPAC Korea”), based on their length of service and rate of pay at the time of termination. Accrued severance benefits are adjusted annually for all eligible employees based on their employment as of balance sheet date. In accordance with the National Pension Act of South Korea, a certain portion of severance benefits has been deposited with the Korean National Pension Fund and deducted from accrued severance benefits. The amount contributed will be refunded to employees from the Korean National Pension Fund upon retirement. Annual severance benefits expense charged to operations is based upon the change in the accrued severance benefits payable at the balance sheet date. The expense for severance benefits for the period from August 5, 2004 to December 31, 2004 and for the years ended December 25, 2005 and December 31, 2006 were approximately $1,793, $6,333 and $9,119, respectively.

In thousands of U.S. Dollars (except per share data)
The Company participates in a number of defined contribution retirement benefit plans in certain countries of operations. Contributions are based on a percentage of each eligible employee’s salary and are expensed as the related salaries are incurred. The Company incurred expenses of approximately $7,226, $10,711 and $12,849 with respect to these retirement plans in 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.
     (z) Operating Leases
Rental payments under operating leases are expensed on a straight-line basis over the periods of the respective leases.
     (aa) Product Warranties
The Company guarantees that work performed will be free from any defects in workmanship, materials and manufacture generally for a period ranging from three to twelve months to meet the stated functionality as agreed to in each sales arrangement. Products are tested against specified functionality requirements prior to delivery, but the Company nevertheless from time to time experiences claims under its warranty guarantees. The Company accrues for estimated warranty costs under those guarantees based upon historical experience, and for specific items at the time their existence is known and the amounts are determinable. Warranty costs incurred in 2004, 2005 and 2006 were insignificant.
     (bb) Research and Development
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
     (cc) Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities in the financial statements and their respective tax bases, and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recorded for loss carryforwards and other deferred tax assets where it is more likely than not that such loss carryforwards and deferred tax assets will not be realized.
     (dd) Net Income (Loss) Per Share
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding and dilutive potential ordinary shares from the assumed exercise of share options outstanding during the period, if any, using the treasury stock method plus other potentially dilutive securities outstanding, such as convertible notes.
The Company excluded certain potentially dilutive securities for each period presented from its diluted net income (loss) per share computation because either the exercise price of the securities exceeded the average fair value of the Company’s ordinary shares or the Company had net losses, and therefore these securities were anti-dilutive.
A summary of the excluded potentially dilutive securities outstanding and the range of related exercise prices follows:
                         
    December 31,   December 25,   December 31,
    2004   2005   2006
Convertible debt
    369,235       287,999       82,454  
Share options
    131,997       124,175       103,508  
The conversion price of convertible debt outstanding was approximately $0.93 to $1.87 per share (equivalent to approximately $9.30 to $18.70 per ADS) as of December 31, 2006. The weighted average exercise prices

     (ee) New Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS 123(R)”). This statement revises SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” amends SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows,” and supersedes APB No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.” SFAS 123(R) requires companies to apply a fair-value based measurement method in accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees and to record compensation expense for all share awards granted, and to awards modified, repurchased or cancelled after the required effective date. In addition, companies are required to record compensation expense (as previous awards continue to vest) for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding at the date of adoption. SFAS 123(R) is effective for annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005, which is the Company’s fiscal 2006. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission released SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, Share-Based Payment (“SAB 107”). SAB 107 contains interpretive guidance related to the interaction between SFAS 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations, as well as provides the SEC’s views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. SAB 107 also highlights the importance of disclosures made related to the accounting for share-based payment transactions.
The adoption of SFAS 123(R) had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006, and is expected to continue to materially impact our financial statements in the foreseeable future. See note 23 below for more information on the impact of the adoption of SFAS 123(R).
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 is an interpretation of SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. In addition, FIN 48 requires expanded disclosure with respect to the uncertainty in income taxes and is effective for fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, that FIN 48 will have on the consolidated financial statements.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS 157”), which defines fair value, establishes guidelines for measuring fair value and expands disclosures regarding fair value measurements. SFAS 157 does not require any new fair value measurements but rather eliminates inconsistencies in guidance found in various prior accounting pronouncements. SFAS 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. Earlier adoption is permitted, provided the company has not yet issued financial statements, including for interim periods, for that fiscal year. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 157, but do not expect the adoption of SFAS 157 to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132(R)” (“SFAS 158”). This standard requires employers to recognize the underfunded or overfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in the funded status in the year in which the changes occur through accumulated other comprehensive income, which is a component of stockholders’ equity. The new reporting requirements and related new footnote disclosure rules of SFAS 158 are effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006. The adoption of SFAS 158 does not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Additionally, SFAS 158 requires employers to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position effective for fiscal year ending after December 15, 2008.
2.   Related Party Transactions
As of December 31, 2006, Temasek Holdings, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Singapore Technologies Semiconductors Pte Ltd (“STSPL”), beneficially owns approximately 36% of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares. Singapore Technologies Pte Ltd (“STPL”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Temasek Holdings, was the holding company of STSPL prior to a restructuring completed on December 31, 2004 pursuant to which all the assets of STPL were transferred to Temasek Holdings.
The Company’s operations in Singapore are conducted in a building constructed on land held on a long-term operating lease from a statutory board of the Government of Singapore. The lease is for a 30-year period commencing March 1, 1996 and is renewable for a further 30 years subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions.
STPL previously provided management and corporate services to the Company. Under a service agreement effective January 1, 2000, annual management fees were payable for the provision of specified services on mutually agreed terms which the Company believed approximated the cost of providing those services. The fees were subjected to review by the parties every three years. The service fee expense amounted to $1,146 in 2004. The service agreement was terminated on December 31, 2004.
The Company has contracts with Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing Ltd (“Chartered”), majority owned by Temasek Holdings through STSPL, to provide wafer sort, packaging and test services and priority usage of the Company’s testers in return for minimum loads and orders. Net revenues earned from Chartered in 2004, 2005 and 2006 were $18,537, $12,647 and $11,109, respectively.
The Company also engages in transacting with other companies, directly or indirectly controlled by Temasek Holdings, in the ordinary course of business. These transactions which include transactions for gas, water and electricity, facilities management, transportation and telecommunication services are at their prevailing market rates or prices and on customary terms and conditions. These expenses amounted to $24,095, $14,672 and $18,375 in 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.
The amounts owing by (to) affiliates were as follows:

In 2006, the Company entered into an agreement to sell packaging and test equipment related to specific low lead count packages to Wuxi CR Micro-Assembly Technology Ltd. (“ANST”) for $35,000 payable over 4 years and a performance-based contingent earn-out of $5,000. ANST is a wholly owned subsidiary of MAT, of which the Company has a 25% shareholding. As a result of the planned sale of these assets to ANST, the Company has separately classified the related assets of $28,688 to assets held for sale, a component of other non-current assets. During 2006, $2,429 of the related assets have been transferred to ANST and $430 of gain has been recognized in year ended December 31, 2006. In addition to the transfer of assets, the

Leasing prepayments represent prepayments of lease rental obligations for certain plant and machinery leased under sale and lease-back arrangements.
The Company extended $5,000 and $15,000 loans to a vendor in June 2003 and January 2004, respectively, to secure a specified minimum quantity of substrates up to December 2008. The loans are interest-free and are collateralized by equipment purchased by the loan monies, mortgage on the factory of the vendor and 2,400 shares of the vendor. The loans of $5,000 and $15,000 are repayable in quarterly installments of $450 and $882 up to June 2007 and December 2008, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2006, $5,329 was repaid.

Property, plant and equipment, net
  $ 1,107,031     $ 1,192,830  
 
           
Depreciation charged to results of operations, including depreciation related to assets under capital leases, amounted to $163,975, $195,923 and $229,067 in 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.
In the third quarter of 2004, following the consummation of the merger, the Company adopted ChipPAC’s policy to depreciate equipment on a straight-line basis over 8 years, from 5 years previously. The impact of this change was depreciation savings of $23,373 in 2004. The change resulted in an increase in net income of $19,698, net of tax effects of $3,675. This also resulted in a decrease in loss per share and ADS by $0.01 and $0.14, respectively, in 2004.
The Company routinely reviews the remaining estimated useful lives of its equipment to determine if such lives should be adjusted due to the likelihood of technological obsolescence arising from changes in production techniques or in market demand for the use of its equipment. However, due to the nature of the packaging and testing operations, which may include sudden changes in demand in the end markets, and due to the fact that certain equipment is dedicated to specific customers, the Company may not be able to accurately anticipate declines in the utility of its equipment.
Land use rights represent payments to secure, on a fully-paid up basis, the use of properties where the Company’s facilities are located in Shanghai, China and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for a period of 50 and 99 years, respectively. The land use rights expire in the year 2044 for Shanghai, China and in the year 2086 for Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The Company’s Singapore facilities are located in a building constructed on land held on a 30-year operating lease which is renewable for a further 30-year period subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions. The facilities in Hsin-Chu Hsien, Taiwan are located on a freehold land.
Included in property, plant and equipment are equipment acquired under capital lease at a cost of $20,406 and $20,891 as of December 25, 2005 and December 31, 2006, respectively. The accumulated depreciation for these leased assets as of December 25, 2005 and December 31, 2006 amounted to $3,775 and $6,397, respectively.

Ending
  $ 522,625     $ 513,512  
 
           
As of December 31, 2006, the Company had goodwill of $2,209 related to the acquisition of Winstek and $511,303 related to the acquisition of ChipPAC. In 2005, purchase adjustments of $973 related to the cost of acquisition of $453 and fair value of liabilities acquired of $520 were recorded. In 2006, purchase adjustments of $9,113 related to the deferred taxes valuation were recorded.
Pursuant to business combination accounting rules, the goodwill associated with the acquisition of ChipPAC was recorded based on share prices at the time the merger was announced. The Company performed its annual test for impairment of goodwill related to ChipPAC during the fourth quarter of 2004, 2005 and 2006. Goodwill was allocated to reporting units associated with the Company’s acquisitions.
In 2005 and 2006, the Company performed its annual test for impairment and determined that the fair value of the reporting units exceeds their carrying value, and therefore goodwill was not impaired.

The annual impairment review completed in 2004 indicated that the reported book value of the ChipPAC reporting units exceeded its fair value, with the determination of fair value supplemented by independent appraisal using a combination of discounted cash flows and market multiples methodologies. The Company believed that the decline in the fair values of the ChipPAC reporting units in 2004 were primarily due to:-
(a)   longer than expected slow-down in the industry beginning late 2004 as customers corrected excess inventory position. This reduction in demand, coupled with the competitive pressures in the packaging and testing business had affected the short-term earnings expectation of the Company; and
(b)   a revision of the industry outlook beyond 2005 as compared to the time the merger was announced.
The Company compared the fair values of the ChipPAC reporting units to the fair values of their tangible and identifiable intangible net assets for purposes of determining the implied fair value of goodwill in 2004. Upon completion of the assessment, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $453,000 to reduce the carrying value of goodwill related to the acquisition of ChipPAC to its estimated fair value of $521,389 in 2004.
12.   Business Combination
On August 5, 2004, STATS and ChipPAC consummated the previously announced merger which resulted in ChipPAC becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of STATS. The transaction had been accounted for using the purchase method. ChipPAC is a full portfolio provider of semiconductor packaging, design, test and distribution services. By combining the testing expertise of STATS with the packaging expertise of ChipPAC, STATS ChipPAC offers its global customers one of the broadest portfolios of comprehensive end-to-end packaging and test services in the semiconductor industry.
The number of STATS ChipPAC ADSs issued pursuant to the merger was 86,190,753, determined based upon the exchange ratio of 0.87 STATS ADS for each share of ChipPAC Class A common stock and the number of outstanding shares of ChipPAC Class A common stock as of August 5, 2004. The average market price per STATS ADS of $12.402 is based upon an average of the closing prices for a range of trading days (February 8 through 12, 2004) around February 10, 2004, the date on which the merger was announced.
The fair values of STATS ChipPAC substitute options, both vested and unvested, were determined using a Black-Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions: no dividend yield, an expected volatility of 62.47%, and a risk-free interest rate of 3.12%. The model assumed an expected life of five to seven years for vested and unvested options.
The number of STATS ChipPAC ordinary shares that were subjected to STATS ChipPAC substitute options in connection with the merger was 76,492,951, based upon the total number of shares of ChipPAC Class A common stock subjected to outstanding ChipPAC options as of August 5, 2004, at an exercise price range of $0.15 to $1.47 per STATS ChipPAC ordinary share.
Based on the above, the estimated total purchase price of the ChipPAC acquisition was as follows:
         
Value of STATS ChipPAC ADSs issued
  $ 1,068,955  
Value of STATS ChipPAC substitute options
    74,548  
 
     
Total value of STATS ChipPAC securities
    1,143,503  
Estimated direct transaction costs
    9,369  
 
     
Total estimated purchase price
  $ 1,152,872  
 
     
Under the purchase method of accounting, the total estimated purchase price as shown in the table above was allocated to ChipPAC’s net tangible and identifiable intangible assets based on their estimated fair values as at merger date. In determining the price allocation, management considered, among other factors, its intention for use of acquired assets as well as historical demand and estimates of future demand for ChipPAC’s products and services. Based on these assumptions, the estimated purchase price was allocated as follows:
         
Current and other assets
  $ 170,332  
Property, plant and equipment
    447,568  
Current liabilities
    (161,203 )

Certain adjustments were made to goodwill subsequent to the acquisition date and are described in Note 11, Goodwill.
Of the total estimated purchase price, an estimate of $29,254 had been allocated to net assets assumed and $147,218 had been allocated to amortizable identifiable intangible assets acquired. The final allocation of purchase price was subjected to adjustments as described in Note 11.
The fair value of tangible assets was estimated primarily based on the cost and sales comparison approaches. In applying the cost approach, the replacement or reproduction cost estimates for the buildings, machinery and other equipment were based on indexed original costs or manufacturer reported replacement costs. Original historical cost data was segregated by appraisal class and year of acquisition, and indexed to estimated reproduction cost. Inflation trend factors were derived using indices from nationally recognized indexes. Replacement or reproduction costs were reduced by depreciation factors that reflect the estimated physical deterioration and functional obsolescence of assets. The sales comparison approach was used for tangible assets that have an active resale market. Similar assets recently sold or offered for sale were analyzed and their prices adjusted to reflect the difference between the comparable asset and the asset and the conditions of the sale to estimate the value of the acquired assets.
The fair value assigned to intangible assets was estimated by discounting the estimated future cash flows of the intangibles assets to their present value. The cash flow estimates used for technology and intellectual property were based on estimates of product revenue and appropriate royalty rates (based on an analysis of rates for similar technologies and forecast product margins). The cash flow estimates used for customer relationships were based on estimates of revenue attributed to the current customers and the programs they have been qualified on as well as the profitability attributed to each customer related asset. The rate used to discount these net cash flows was determined after consideration of market returns on debt and equity capital, the weighted average return on invested capital, the nature of each asset and the risk associated with achieving the forecast.
The fair value of the ChipPAC tradename was amortized on a straight-line basis over an estimated life of seven years. Technology and intellectual property were related to ChipPAC’s technology for ball grid array, lead-frame and chip scale package. The fair value of these assets was amortized on a straight-line basis over an average estimated life of ten years.
Customer relationships represent those customers with which ChipPAC had current sales relationships. The fair value of these assets was amortized on a straight-line basis over an average estimated life of two years.
The Company recorded $2,011 of unearned compensation on unvested options, in accordance with FASB Interpretation No. 44, “Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation.” This amount represents the intrinsic value of stock options assumed that is earned as the employees provide services over the next four years.
Of the total estimated purchase price, $974,389 had been allocated to goodwill. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price of an acquired business over the fair value of the underlying net tangible and identifiable intangible assets. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives resulting from business combinations will not be amortized but instead will be tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if certain indicators are present.

In 2004, as part of the acquisition of ChipPAC, the Company acquired approximately $103,351 of net operating loss carryforwards, $32,185 of tax credit carryforwards and $47,023 of reinvestment allowance that were recognized as deferred tax assets upon acquisition. The Company established a valuation allowance of $53,973 against all of the net operating loss carryforwards and reinvestment allowance, and a portion of the Korean tax credit carryforwards. If utilized, these attributes will be treated as a reduction in acquired goodwill. In 2004, $5,916 of the South Korea tax credit carryforwards was utilized. In 2006, a further $9,113 of the South Korea and China net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards was utilized.
The deferred tax assets as of December 25, 2005 and December 31, 2006 arose principally as a result of the deferred tax benefit associated with operating loss carryforwards, investment, and research and development tax credits, reinvestment allowance and deductible temporary differences on property, plant and equipment. The Company recorded a valuation allowance of $110,671 and $119,785 as of December 25, 2005 and December 31, 2006, respectively, which represents an increase of $30,133 and $9,114 in 2005 and 2006, respectively, to reduce the assets to the amounts that the Company deemed, more likely than not, that the deferred tax asset will not be realized. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible, the Company establish a partial valuation allowance against its gross deferred tax assets to reduce the assets to the amount the Company deemed, more likely than not, to be recoverable.
As at December 31, 2006, the Company has approximately $113,197 of tax loss carryforwards available to offset against future taxable income, certain amounts of which will expire in varying amounts from 2007 to 2024. Changes in stock ownership can result in a limitation on the amount of net operating loss that is available as carryforwards. The Company determined it had undergone such an ownership change in 2004 in connection with its merger with ChipPAC. In 2005, the limitations in connection with the merger with ChipPAC related to the carryforward of certain Singapore tax losses and capital allowances for offset against future taxable profits of the Company were waived by the Singapore tax authorities, subject to fulfillment of certain continuing conditions. Consequently, approximately $21,685 of such tax loss and capital allowance carryforwards were recognized as deferred tax assets in 2005. As at December 31, 2006, the Company has approximately $2,960 of tax deductions in the United States as a result of the exercise of employee share options reflected in net operating loss carryforwards and valuation allowance, of which the tax benefit has not been realized.
As at December 31, 2006, the Company has approximately $7,969, $303,600, $49,834 and $134,493 of research and development, unutilized capital allowances, investment tax credits and reinvestment allowance, respectively, which can be used to offset income tax payable in future years. Certain credits will expire in varying amounts from 2007 through 2013.
The Company’s pioneer trade was in an adjusted tax loss position due to the substantial amount of capital allowances claimed arising from capital expenditure on its plant and machinery and trade losses in certain years. As a result, the Company had not enjoyed any tax exemption in respect of its income arising from the pioneer activities. On the other hand, the Company had paid taxes in respect of its interest and rental income as losses arising from the pioneer trade cannot be set-off against the non-qualifying income during the pioneer incentive period due to the application of the law in respect of the pioneer incentive. In September 2004, the application for the revocation of the Company’s pioneer status granted from January 1, 1996 to December 31, 2003 under the Singapore Economic Expansion Incentives (Relief from Income Tax) Act, Chapter 86, for “Subcontract Assembly And Testing Of Integrated Circuits Including Wafer Probing Services” was approved by the Singapore Economic Development Board (“EDB”), an agency of the Government of Singapore. Accordingly, the Company recorded $5,039 of tax recoverable in 2004 related to expected tax refund of taxes paid previously on interest and rental income as the unutilized tax losses and capital allowances arising from the trading activities would then be allowed to set-off against the income derived in the previous years, of which $4,559 has been refunded in 2005. The remaining $480 has been refunded in 2006. The Company is in the process of working with the EDB for a new tax incentive for its Singapore operations.

On October 18, 2004, ChipPAC commenced a consent solicitation from holders of these convertible notes to amend the indenture governing these convertible notes to replace ChipPAC’s obligation to file with the SEC annual reports and such other information, documents and reports specified in Section 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act of 1934 with an obligation of STATS ChipPAC to file all such reports with the SEC as are applicable to a foreign private issuer. The consent solicitation expired on November 1, 2004. ChipPAC received valid deliveries of consents from holders of approximately $130,500 aggregate principal amount, or 87%, of these convertible notes outstanding. Accordingly, ChipPAC obtained the requisite consents authorizing the adoption of the proposed amendment to the indenture. The consents were accepted and the amendments to the indenture became effective on November 2, 2004.
The conversion price of the 8.0% convertible subordinated notes and 2.5% convertible subordinated notes may be subject to adjustments upon occurrence of the following: (1) on share distribution, share split or share consolidation; (2) on issue or distribution to all or substantially all holders of the Company’s ordinary shares of warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase the Company’s ordinary shares, or securities convertible into the Company’s ordinary shares, at a price per share or a conversion price per share below the reasonable range of fair market value; (3) on issue or distribution to all or substantially all holders of the Company’s ordinary shares any shares of capital stock of the Company, evidences of indebtedness or other non-cash assets (excluding (i) dividends, distributions and rights or warrants referred to above, and (ii) dividends or distributions paid in cash), or rights or warrants to subscribe for, or purchase any of the Company’s securities (excluding those rights or warrants referred to above); (4) on issue or distribution to all or substantially all holders of the Company’s ordinary shares of all cash distributions in an aggregate amount that, together with (a) any cash and any other consideration payable in respect of any purchase by the Company of the Company’s ordinary shares consummated within the preceding 12 months not triggering a conversion price adjustment and (b) all cash distributions to all or substantially all holders of the Company’s ordinary shares made within the preceding 12 months not triggering a conversion price adjustment, exceeds, in the case of the 2.5% convertible subordinated notes, 10% of the Company’s then market capitalization, and in the case of the 8.0% convertible subordinated notes, 12.5% of the Company’s then market capitalization; and (5) on purchase by the Company of the Company’s ordinary shares to the extent it involves aggregate consideration that, together with (a) any cash and any other consideration payable in respect of any purchase by the Company of the Company’s ordinary shares consummated within the

preceding 12 months not triggering a conversion price adjustment and (b) all cash distributions to all or substantially all holders of the Company’s ordinary shares made within the preceding 12 months not triggering a conversion price adjustment, exceeds, in the case of the 2.5% convertible subordinated notes, 10% of the Company’s then market capitalization, and in the case of the 8% convertible subordinated notes, 12.5% of the Company’s then market capitalization.
The terms of the indentures governing the 2.5% convertible subordinated notes and the 8.0% convertible subordinated notes permits only issuance of new shares. There is no net cash or net share settlement provisions. Also, pursuant to the registration rights agreement relating to the 2.5% convertible subordinated notes and the 8.0% convertible subordinated notes, shelf registration is required to be maintained for a period of two years. The shelf registration requirement of the 8.0% convertible subordinated notes had expired as of the date of the merger of the Company and ChipPAC, and the shelf registration requirement of the 2.5% convertible subordinated notes has been continued via a registration statement on Form F-3/S-3 filed on October 13, 2004 and which offering had been terminated on October 11, 2006.
The various provisions of the convertible notes were evaluated by the Company to determine whether any specific conversion features should be bifurcated from the debt host instrument and accounted for as separate derivatives. The Company concluded that conversion options, conversion price adjustments, option to settle for cash upon conversion, the Company’s call option and note holders’ put option embedded in the convertibles notes may be classified as equity and therefore do not need to be accounted for separately from the debt host instruments. The change in control put options are determined to be clearly and closely related to the debt host instrument and are not required to be accounted for separately. Further, the conversion prices were out-of-the-money at the commitment dates and did not result in bifurcation of beneficial conversion features.
On November 18, 2004, the Company issued $215,000 of senior unsecured notes due November 15, 2011, for net proceeds of $210,458. The senior notes bears interest of 6.75% per annum payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year. At the maturity date, the Company will pay to the note holders 100.0% of the principal amount, comprising principal and redemption interest. Prior to November 15, 2008, the Company may redeem all or a part of the senior notes at any time by paying a “make whole” premium plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Company may redeem all, but not less than all, of these notes at any time in the event of certain changes affecting withholding taxes at 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. On or after November 15, 2008, the Company may redeem all or a part of these notes at any time at the redemption prices specified under the terms and conditions of the senior notes plus accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, prior to November 15, 2007, the Company may redeem up to 35% of these notes with the net proceeds of certain equity offerings. Upon a change of control, the Company will be required to offer to purchase these notes at 101.0% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.
On July 19, 2005, the Company issued $150,000 of senior unsecured notes due July 19, 2010 for net proceeds of $146,535. The senior notes bear interest rate of 7.5% per annum payable semi-annually on January 19 and July 19 of each year. At the maturity date, the Company will pay to the note holders 100.0% of the principal amount, comprising principal and redemption interest. Prior to July 19, 2010, the Company may redeem all or a part of the senior notes at any time by paying a “make whole” premium plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Company may redeem all, but not less than all, of these notes at any time in the event of certain changes affecting withholding taxes at 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest and liquidated damages, if any. In addition, prior to July 19, 2008, the Company may redeem up to 35% of these notes at a redemption price of 107.5% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and liquidated damages, if any, to the redemption date, with the net proceeds of certain equity offerings. Upon a change of control, the Company will be required to offer to purchase these notes at 101.0% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest. A portion of the net proceeds were used to repay the then outstanding $99,000 short-term debts with Overseas-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited and Bank of America N.A.
The Company has two U.S. dollars term loan facilities of $25,000 and $5,000 from Hana Bank in South Korea, of which $14,070 was outstanding as of December 31, 2006.

20.   Share Capital and Additional Paid-in Capital
On August 5, 2004, the Company issued 861,907,530 new ordinary shares and assumed options to purchase 76,492,951 ordinary shares to effect the acquisition of ChipPAC.
As a result of the employees exercising their share options and purchase rights in 2004, 2005 and 2006, 5,802,800, 31,961,575 and 26,522,092 ordinary shares were issued, respectively.
Additional paid-in capital represents principally the excess of proceeds received from issues of share capital (net of the costs of issue) over the par value of shares issued, which under Singapore law must be credited to the share premium account. The share premium may only be applied in paying up unissued shares to be issued to shareholders, paying up in whole or in part the balance unpaid on shares in issue, in payment of dividends, if such dividends are satisfied by the issue of shares to members of the Company, in writing off preliminary expenses and share and debenture issue expenses and by provision for premiums payable on the redemption of redeemable preferred shares. The Company has not utilized any amounts in the share premium account for the above mentioned purposes. As of December 25 2005, the Company’s share premium account amounted to $1,414,721.
Under Singapore law, all increases in share capital (including rights issues) require prior shareholders’ approval. Effective January 30, 2006, the Company was subjected to the amendments promulgated under the Companies (Amendment) Act of 2005 of Singapore. These amendments included the abolition of the ordinary share par value and authorized capital. The relevant amendments have resulted in all ordinary shares being recorded with no par value. The amendments do not affect the actual number of ordinary shares issued and the paid up capital of the Company. As a result of the abolition of the ordinary share par value, the balance of the additional paid-in capital amounting to $1,517,175 became part of the share capital as of January 30, 2006 and increased the share capital account on that date to $1,820,277.
21.   Share Repurchase
The Companies (Amendment) Act 2005 of Singapore was made effective on January 30, 2006. As a result of these amendments, a Singapore company can now repurchase shares out of capital, as well as from distributable profits, and ordinary shares repurchased by a company can be held by that company as treasury shares instead of being cancelled. In light of these amendments, at the annual general meeting in April 2006, the Company obtained shareholders’ approval for the repurchase of up to approximately 50

million ordinary shares (2.5% of the issued ordinary share capital as of the date of the annual general meeting) and the amendment of its employee share plans to, among other things, allow the Company the flexibility to deliver repurchased ordinary shares held in treasury (instead of issuing new shares) to eligible plan participants. The approved amount for share repurchases under this shareholders’ mandate will terminate on the earlier of the date on which the next annual general meeting is held or the date which the approval is revoked or varied. As of December 31, 2006, the Company had not repurchased any shares.

23.   Share Options and Incentive Plans
In April 2006, the Company’s shareholders authorized the Company to issue restricted share units of the Company in respect of ordinary shares of the Company and grant performance shares under the STATS ChipPAC Ltd. Restricted Share Plan (“RSP”) and the STATS ChipPAC Ltd. Performance Share Plan (“PSP”), respectively.
Under the RSP, the Company is permitted to grant Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) to eligible participants. The RSP is intended to replace the STATS ChipPAC Ltd. Share Option Plan, as amended, by 2007. The RSUs are share awards that entitle the grantee to ordinary shares of the Company or their equivalent cash value or combinations thereof as the award vests in accordance with a schedule determined by the Board of Directors or committee thereof. The unvested portions of the RSUs are generally subject to forfeiture if employment terminates prior to vesting. A grantee of RSU has no rights as a shareholder with respect to any ordinary shares covered by the RSP until such ordinary shares have been issued or transferred pursuant to the terms of the RSP. The PSP is intended to supplement the Company’s long term compensation strategy of senior level employees, under which the number of ordinary shares or their equivalent cash value or combinations thereof ultimately received by the employee depends on the Company’s performance against specified targets over a period of time to be determined by the Board of Directors or committee thereof. The ordinary shares covered by a grant under the PSP shall vest in accordance with a schedule determined by the Board of Directors or committee thereof. A grantee of any ordinary shares under the PSP has no rights as a shareholder with respect to any ordinary shares covered by the grantee’s PSP award until such ordinary shares have been issued or transferred pursuant to the terms of the PSP. The number of ordinary shares that may be issued under the STATS ChipPAC RSP and the STATS ChipPAC PSP may not exceed, in the aggregate, 50 million and 15 million ordinary shares of the Company, respectively. As of December 31, 2006, no grant of share awards under the RSP and PSP had been made.
In April 2006, the shareholders approved the resolution to limit the aggregate number of ordinary shares that may be issued under the STATS ChipPAC Ltd. Share Option Plan, as amended, (“STATS ChipPAC Option Plan”) to not exceed 198 million ordinary shares (subject to adjustment under the plan), including the 80 million ordinary shares subject to the STATS ChipPAC Ltd. Substitute Purchase and Option Plan (“Substitute Option Plan”) and STATS ChipPAC Ltd. Substitute Equity Incentive Plan (“Substitute EIP”). The purpose of the STATS ChipPAC Option Plan is to offer selected individuals an opportunity to acquire or increase an ownership interest in the Company through the grant of options to purchase ordinary shares. Options granted under the STATS ChipPAC Option Plan may be either nonqualified options or incentive stock options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the United States Internal Revenue Code. The options typically vest over a four-year period. Option periods may not exceed 10 years from the date of grant.
The plan is administered by a committee appointed by the directors. Employees, outside directors and consultants are eligible for the grant of options except for (i) employees of affiliates, outside directors and

F-32

consultants, who are not eligible for the grant of incentive stock options; and (ii) employees, outside directors and consultants of affiliates resident in the United States, who are not eligible for the grant of options. The exercise price of an incentive stock option is the fair market value of the shares at the date of the grant. In certain circumstances, the exercise price may be higher than the fair market value but in no event will the exercise price be below the par value of the share.
In August 2004, the Company adopted the STATS ChipPAC Ltd. Employee Share Purchase Plan 2004 (“ESPP”) for the benefit of its employees. Under the ESPP, substantially all employees could purchase the Company’s ordinary shares through periodic payroll deductions or lump sum payments at a price equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value at the beginning or the end of the specified six-month offering period commencing on each February 15 and August 16, except for the first purchase period which commenced on September 1, 2004 and ended on February 14, 2005. Share purchases are limited to 15% of an employee’s eligible compensation.
In April 2006, changes to the terms of the ESPP were approved by the shareholders. The Company eliminated the provision that the purchase price of the shares to be purchased under the ESPP be determined on the lower of the fair market value at the beginning or the end of the specified purchase period, and instead provided that the purchase price be determined by reference to the fair market value of the shares based on the quoted market price on the date of the purchase, or, if the shares are acquired through an open market purchase, the price actually paid for the shares. Further, instead of providing for a 15% discount on the purchase price, the Company may match up to 20% of the contributions of the ESPP participants by transferring or issuing newly issued shares, existing shares (including treasury shares), shares acquired on the open market or providing cash contribution for the purchase of shares. As a result of these changes, the ESPP no longer qualifies under Section 423 of the United States Internal Revenue Code. The maximum aggregate of ordinary shares that may be issued under the ESPP has been revised from 130 million ordinary shares in 2005 to not exceed 92 million ordinary shares of the Company in 2006.
Prior to December 26, 2005, the Company measured share-based employee compensation expense in accordance with the intrinsic method of APB 25 and its related interpretations, and includes pro forma information in accordance with SFAS 123, as amended by SFAS No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure.” In the Company’s pro forma information, the Company accounted for forfeitures as they occurred.
Effective December 26, 2005, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123(R). The Company has elected to adopt the modified-prospective transition method permitted by SFAS 123(R) and accordingly prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include, the impact of SFAS 123(R). The modified-prospective transition method requires that share-based compensation expense be recorded for (a) any share-based payments granted through, but not yet vested as of December 25, 2005 based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the pro forma provisions of SFAS 123, and (b) any share-based payments granted subsequent to December 25, 2005, based on the grant-date fair value estimated, and adjusted for estimated forfeitures. For share option awards, the Company continued to recognize compensation expense on a graded vesting basis over the requisite service period of the award. The impact of recording share-based compensation expense related to share options and employee share purchase rights as a result of the adoption of SFAS 123(R) was as follows:
         
    Year Ended  
    December 31,  
    2006  
Cost of revenues
  $ 5,965  
Selling, general and administrative
    6,143  
Research and development
    1,580  
 
     
 
  $ 13,688  
 
     
As a result of adopting SFAS 123(R), the Company’s net income for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $13,307 lower than if it had continued to account for share-based compensation under APB 25.
If the Company had not adopted SFAS 123(R), basic and diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2006 would have been $0.05 and $0.04, respectively, compared to reported basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.04 and $0.04, respectively. This is equivalent to basic and diluted earnings per ADS

of $0.45 and $0.43, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2006, respectively, compared to reported basic and diluted earnings per ADS of $0.39 and $0.37, respectively.

The Company estimates the grant-date fair value of employee share purchase rights granted prior to August 16, 2006, and share options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model incorporates various and highly subjective assumptions including expected volatility, expected term and interest rates. The expected volatility is based on the implied volatility and trading history of the Company’s shares over the most recent period that commensurates with the estimated expected term of the Company’s employee share purchase rights or share options. The estimated term of the Company’s share options is derived from historical experience. Estimates of fair value are not intended to predict actual future events or the value ultimately realized by persons who receive equity awards.
The terms of the STATS ChipPAC Ltd. Employee Share Purchase Plan 2004 (“ESPP”) for the purchase period which commenced on August 16, 2006 and ends on February 14, 2007 were based on the changes approved by the shareholders in April 2006. For these employee share purchase rights, the total number of shares to be purchased under the plan and the Company matching of up to 20% of the contribution of the ESPP participants, by transferring or issuing shares or providing cash contribution for the purchase of shares, can vary as the purchase price per share is determined based on the fair market value at the end of the purchase period. Therefore the final measure of compensation cost for these rights is determined at the end of the purchase period, on which the number of shares an employee is entitled and the purchase price are determinable. The Company calculates estimated compensation cost as of the balance sheet date prior to the end of the purchase period based on the current estimation of the number of shares and the level of contribution, as determined in accordance with the terms of the ESPP.
The fair value of share options granted in 2004, 2005 and 2006 is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions:
                         
    Year Ended
    December 31,
2004
  December 25,
2005
  December 31,
2006
Expected term
  5 — 10 years   5 — 9 years   3 — 7 years
Dividend yield
  0.0%   0.0%   0.0%
Risk free interest rate
  0.8% — 4.3%   2.6% — 3.3%   3.0% — 3.4%
Weighted average volatility
  61.0%   55.9%   39.1%
SFAS 123(R) requires the cash flows resulting from the tax benefits for tax deductions in excess of the compensation expense recorded for those options (excess tax benefits) to be classified as financing cash flows. For the year ended December 31, 2006, the windfall tax benefit realized from exercised employee share options was insignificant.

24.   Commitments and Contingencies
     (a) Commitments
As of December 25, 2005 and December 31, 2006, unconditional purchase obligations consist of the following:
                 
    December 25,     December 31,  
    2005     2006  
Capital commitments
               
Building, mechanical and electrical installation
  $ 3,204     $ 4,039  
Plant and equipment
    144,169       20,893  
 
           
Other commitments
               
Inventories
  $ 121,822     $ 80,049  
 
           
These unconditional purchase obligations include agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding on the Company and specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased, fixed or variable price provisions and the approximate timing of transactions. The duration of these purchase obligations are generally less than 12 months.
The Company is party to certain royalty and licensing agreements which have anticipated payments of approximately $7,363 per annum for 2007 through 2011. Following the acquisition of ChipPAC, the Company assumed the obligation to pay until September 30, 2007 additional contingent incentive payments to Cirrus Logic, Inc. of up to approximately $750 subject to achievement of certain milestones.
The Company leases certain of its facilities in Singapore, South Korea and the United States under operation lease arrangements and has lease agreements for the land located in Singapore, Malaysia and China related to its facilities in these locations. Operating lease rental expense in 2004, 2005 and 2006 was $4,781, $8,499 and $11,084, respectively.
The Company has leased certain plant and equipment under operating leases and under sale and lease-back arrangements. These leases extend through 2009. Operating lease rental expenses, including amortization of lease prepayments, in respect of these leases for in 2004, 2005 and 2006 were $39,543, $30,514 and $21,749, respectively.

     (b) Contingent Liabilities
The Company is subject to claims and litigations, which arise in the normal course of business. These claims may include allegations of infringement of intellectual property rights of others as well as other claims of liability. The Company accrues liabilities associated with these claims and litigations when they are probable and reasonably estimable.
In February 2006, the Company, ChipPAC and STATS ChipPAC (BVI) Limited were named as defendants in a patent infringement lawsuit filed in United States Federal Court for the Northern District of California. The

plaintiff, Tessera Technologies, Inc. (“Tessera”), has asserted that semiconductor chip packaging, specifically devices having Ball Grid Array (“BGA”) and multi-chip BGA configurations used by the defendants infringe certain patents of Tessera. Tessera has further asserted that the Company is in breach of an existing license agreement between Tessera and ChipPAC, which agreement has been assigned by ChipPAC to the Company. The Company believes that it has a meritorious defense to the claims and intend to defend the lawsuit vigorously. A court determination that the Company’s products or processes infringe the intellectual property rights of others could result in significant liability and/or require the Company to make material changes to its products and/or processes. Due to the inherent uncertainties of the lawsuit, the Company cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome and it could result in significant liability and/or injunctions and could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations of the Company.
In addition, the Company is subject to various taxes in the different jurisdictions in which it operates. These include taxes on income, property, goods and services, and other taxes. The Company submits tax returns and claims with the respective government taxing authorities, which are subject to examination and agreement by those taxing authorities. The Company will regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine adequacy of provision for taxes.
In connection with the merger with ChipPAC, the Company assumed certain contingent liabilities. In 2002, an assessment of approximately 16.0 billion South Korean Won (approximately $17,233 as of December 31, 2006) was made by the South Korean National Tax Service, or NTS, relating to withholding tax not collected on the interest income on the loan between the ChipPAC’s subsidiaries in South Korea and Hungary for the period from 1999 to September 2001. The prevailing tax treaty does not require withholding tax on the transactions in question. ChipPAC has appealed the assessment through the NTS’s Mutual Agreement Procedure (“MAP”) and believes that the assessment will be overturned. On July 18, 2002, the Icheon tax office of the NTS approved a suspension of the proposed assessment until resolution of the disputed assessment. The NTS required a corporate guarantee amounting to the tax assessment in exchange for the suspension. ChipPAC complied with the guarantee request on July 10, 2002. A further assessment of 2.7 billion South Korean Won (approximately $2,871 as of December 31, 2006) was made on January 9, 2004 for interest expense from October 2001 to May 2002. ChipPAC has applied for the MAP and obtained an approval for a suspension of the proposed assessment by providing a corporate guarantee amounting to the additional taxes. The MAP will terminate on July 3, 2007 if not extended by the NTS. In the event that the Company is not successful with the appeal, the maximum amount payable including potential interest and local surtax as of December 31, 2006 is estimated to be 36.5 billion South Korean Won (approximately $39,235 as of December 31, 2006). As of December 31, 2006, no accrual has been made. However, the Company’s evaluation of the likely impact of the above contingent liabilities could change in the future and may result in additional liability assumed in the initial purchase of ChipPAC. The final outcome of the resolution of this matter could result in significant liability and could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of operations of the Company.
25.   Restructuring Charges
In the first quarter of 2005 and third quarter of 2006, certain restructuring plans were executed to realign the Company’s organization and reduce operating costs to better align the Company’s expenses with revenues, which resulted in a total reduction in workforce of 88 and 556 employees, respectively, related to the restructuring. Severance and related charges of $830 and $1,938 were incurred and expensed in the first quarter of 2005 and third quarter of 2006, respectively.

The estimated fair value of financial instruments has been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data to develop the estimates for fair value. Accordingly, these estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in a current market exchange. Certain of these financial instruments are with major financial institutions and expose the Company to market and credit risks and may at times be concentrated with certain counterparties or groups of counterparties. The creditworthiness of counterparties is continually reviewed, and full performance is anticipated.
The methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of significant classes of financial instruments is set forth below:
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are due on demand or carry a maturity date of less than three months when purchased. The carrying amount of these financial instruments is a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Marketable securities
The fair value is estimated based upon the quoted market price on the last business day of the fiscal year. For securities where there are no quoted market prices, the carrying amount is assumed to be its fair value.
Restricted cash
The fair value is based on current interest rates available to the Company for time deposits and government bonds of similar terms and remaining maturities.
Short-term borrowings and long-term debts
The fair value is based on current interest rates available to the Company for issuance of debts of similar terms and remaining maturities.
Senior and convertible notes
The fair value is estimated by obtaining quotes from market and brokers.
Limitations
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, and are based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

28.   Business Segment, Geographic and Major Customer Data
Operating segments, as defined under SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information” (“SFAS 131”) are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company has identified its individual geographic operating locations as its operating segments. All material geographical operating locations qualify for aggregation under SFAS 131 due to similarities in economic characteristics, nature of services, market base and production process. Accordingly, the operating segments have been aggregated into one reportable segment.

29.   Recent Event
On March 1, 2007, STSPL, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Temasek Holdings, announced its intention to launch a voluntary conditional cash offer for the remaining ordinary shares and ADSs in the Company that STSPL does not already own (the “Offer”). As of January 31, 2007, STSPL owned approximately 36% of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares. The information in the following paragraph is based on STSPL’s Offer announcement.
The offer price will be S$1.75 for each ordinary share and S$17.50 for each ADS in cash. The Offer will be conditioned upon, among other matters, STSPL receiving acceptance of such number of ordinary shares and ADSs which, together with all other ordinary shares and ADSs owned, acquired or agreed to be acquired by STSPL, would represent more than 50% of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares and ADSs following the close of the Offer. If ordinary shares and ADSs tendered into the Offer result in STSPL owning at least 90% of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares and ADSs (other than those owned by STSPL and its related corporations at the commencement of the Offer), STSPL intends to offer a higher purchase price of S$1.88 per ordinary share or S$18.80 per ADS to all shareholders who accept the Offer, regardless of when their ordinary shares and ADSs are tendered. The Offer would also include an offer by STSPL for the Company’s outstanding $115,000 senior, unsecured and unsubordinated convertible notes due 2008 and the $150,000 2.5% convertible subordinated notes due 2008. The offer for the convertible notes is conditioned on the offer for the ordinary shares and ADSs becoming unconditional in all respects.
Consummation of the Offer is subject to conditions described above and other customary conditions. The Company expects in due course to make further announcements on important information about the Offer, the Company’s board of director’s recommendations, the advice of independent financial adviser and other related matters.

The consolidated financial statements of STATS ChipPAC Ltd. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (the “Group”) are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 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 conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit of financial statements includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We reported separately on the consolidated financial statements of the Group on March 12, 2007 and our report is included thereon.
Our audit of the consolidated financial statements referred to above includes an audit of the accompanying unconsolidated balance sheet of the Company, which should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements. The unconsolidated balance sheet of the Company as at December 31, 2006 and notes therein as set out on pages F-51 to F-61 are presented as required by the Singapore Companies Act, Cap. 50 (the “Act”).
In our opinion,
(a)   the consolidated financial statements of the Group and the accompanying unconsolidated balance sheet of the Company are properly drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the Act and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, so as to give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the Group and of the Company as of December 31, 2006, and the consolidated statements of operations, of comprehensive income, of shareholders’ equity and of cash flows of the Group for the financial year ended on that date; and

14.   Income Taxes
    The Company’s pioneer trade was in an adjusted tax loss position due to the substantial amount of capital allowances claimed arising from capital expenditure on its plant and machinery and trade losses in certain years. As a result, the Company had not enjoyed any tax exemption in respect of its income arising from the pioneer activities. On the other hand, the Company had paid taxes in respect of its interest and rental income as losses arising from the pioneer trade cannot be set-off against the non-qualifying income during the pioneer incentive period due to the application of the law in respect of the pioneer incentive. In September 2004, the application for the revocation of the Company’s pioneer status granted from January 1, 1996 to December 31, 2003 under the Singapore Economic Expansion Incentives (Relief from Income Tax) Act, Chapter 86, for “Subcontract Assembly And Testing Of Integrated Circuits Including Wafer Probing Services” was approved by the Singapore Economic Development Board (“EDB”), an agency of the Government of Singapore. Accordingly, the Company recorded $5,039 of tax recoverable in 2004 related to expected tax refund of taxes paid previously on interest and rental income as the unutilized tax losses and capital allowances arising from the trading activities would then be allowed to set-off against the income derived in the previous years, of which $4,559 has been refunded in 2005. The remaining $480 has been refunded in 2006. The Company is in the process of working with the EDB for a new tax incentive for its Singapore operations.
    Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of (a) temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes, and (b) operating loss and unutilized capital allowance carryforwards. The tax effect of significant items comprising the Company’s deferred income tax assets are as follows:
                   
      December 25,     December 31,  
      2005     2006  
 
Deferred income tax assets:
               
 
Operating loss carryforwards
  $ 4,780     $ 4,780  
 
Property, plant and equipment
    32,551       32,430  
 
Others
    369       292  
 
 
           
 
 
    37,700       37,502  
 
Valuation allowance
    (28,400 )     (29,602 )
 
 
           
 
Net deferred income tax assets
  $ 9,300     $ 7,900  
 
 
           
    The Company established a valuation allowance of $28,400 and $29,602 as of December 25, 2005 and December 31, 2006, respectively against all the net operating loss carryforwards and a portion of the capital allowance carryforward, which represents an increase of $1,202 in 2006, to reduce the assets to the amounts that the Company deemed, more likely than not, that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible, the Company establish a partial valuation allowance against its gross deferred tax assets to reduce the assets to the amount the Company deemed, more likely than not, to be recoverable.
    Changes in stock ownership can result in a limitation on the amount of net operating loss that are available as carryforwards. The Company determined that it had undergone such ownership change during fiscal 2004 in connection with its merger with ChipPAC. In 2005, the limitations in connection with the merger with ChipPAC related to the carryforward of certain Singapore tax losses and capital allowances for offset against future taxable profits of the Company were waived by the Singapore tax authorities, subject to fulfillment of certain continuing conditions. Consequently, approximately

    $21,685 of such tax loss and capital allowance carryforwards were recognized as deferred tax assets in fiscal 2005. As at December 31, 2006, the Company has approximately $23,908 and $284,175 of tax loss carryforwards and unutilized capital allowances, which can be used to offset income tax payable in future years.

16.   Unutilized Credit Facilities
    The Company established a syndicated 3-year revolving line of credit of $125,000 in August 2006. The line of credit was arranged by Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited and includes a total of six lenders. The new facility is irrevocable for the 3-year period unless the Company is in breach of covenants, including minimum tangible assets, interest coverage ratios and debt ratios, or if it commits an event of default, such as failing to pay any amount due under the line of credit. As of December 31, 2006, the Company had not used this line of credit and there was no outstanding balance on this facility.
    At December 31, 2006, the Company has other undrawn banking and credit facilities consisting of long-term loans and bank guarantees of $25,068 with financial institutions.
    The notional letters of credit amounts outstanding at December 25, 2005 and December 31, 2006 were $8,951 and $122, respectively.

17.   Share Capital, Additional Paid-in Capital, and Share Options and Incentive Plans
 
    Under Singapore law, all increases in share capital (including rights issues) require prior shareholders’ approval. Effective January 30, 2006, the Company was subjected to the amendments promulgated under the Companies (Amendment) Act 2005 of Singapore. These amendments included the abolition of the ordinary share par value and authorized capital. The relevant amendments have resulted in all ordinary shares being recorded with no par value. The amendments do not affect the actual number of ordinary shares issued and the paid capital of the Company. As a result of the abolition of the ordinary share par value, the balance of the additional paid-in capital amounting to $1,517,175 became part of the share capital account as of January 30, 2006 and increased the share capital account on that date to $1,820,277.
 
    Refer to Note 20 and 23 of the consolidated financial statements for details of the Share Capital and Additional Paid-in Capital, and Share Options and Incentive Plans, respectively.

        2005     2006

19.   Commitments and Contingencies
 
(a)   Commitments
    As of December 25, 2005 and December 31, 2006, unconditional purchase obligations consist of the following:
                     
        December 25,     December 31,  
        2005     2006  
 
  Capital commitments                
 
  Plant and equipment   $ 67,079     $ 5,798  
 
               
 
  Other commitments                
 
  Inventories   $ 51,954     $ 19,954  
 
               
    These unconditional purchase obligations include agreements to purchase goods or services that are enforceable and legally binding on the Company and specify all significant terms, including fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased, fixed or variable price provisions and the approximate timing of transactions. The duration of these purchase obligations are generally less than 12 months.
 
    The Company is party to certain royalty and licensing agreements which have anticipated payments of approximately $1,604 per annum for 2007 through 2011.
 
    The Company leases a facility in Singapore under operating lease arrangement and has a lease agreement for the land located in Singapore related to its production facility. The Company has also leased its plant and certain production equipment under operating leases and under sale and lease-back arrangements.

(b)   Contingencies
 
    The Company is subject to claims and litigations, which arise in the normal course of business. These claims may include allegations of infringement of intellectual property rights of others as well as other claims of liability. The Company accrues liabilities associated with these claims and litigations when they are probable and reasonably estimable.
 
    In February 2006, the Company, ChipPAC and STATS ChipPAC (BVI) Limited were named as defendants in a patent infringement lawsuit filed in United States Federal Court for the Northern District of California. The plaintiff, Tessera Technologies, Inc. (“Tessera”), has asserted that semiconductor chip packaging, specifically devices having ball grid array (“BGA”) and multi-chip BGA configurations used by the defendants infringe certain patents of Tessera. Tessera has further asserted that the Company is in breach of an existing license agreement between Tessera and ChipPAC, which agreement has been assigned by ChipPAC to the Company. The Company believes that it has a meritorious defense to the claims and intend to defend the lawsuit vigorously. A court determination that the Company’s products or processes infringe the intellectual property rights of others could result in significant liability and/or require the Company to make material changes to its products and/or processes. Due to the inherent uncertainties of the lawsuit, the Company cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome and it could result in significant liability and/or injunction and could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition and results of the operations of the Company.
 
    In addition, the Company is subject to various taxes in the different jurisdictions in which it operates. These include taxes on income, property, goods and services, and other taxes. The Company submits tax returns and claims with the respective government taxing authorities, which are subject to examination and agreement by those taxing authorities. The Company will regularly assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine adequacy of provision for taxes.

21.   Recent Event
 
    On March 1, 2007, STSPL, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Temasek Holdings, announced its intention to launch a voluntary conditional cash offer for the remaining ordinary shares and ADSs in the Company that STSPL does not already own (the “Offer”). As of January 31, 2007, STSPL owned approximately 36% of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares. The information in the following paragraph is based on STSPL’s Offer announcement.
 
    The offer price will be S$1.75 for each ordinary share and S$17.50 for each ADS in cash. The Offer will be conditioned upon, among other matters, STSPL receiving acceptance of such number of ordinary shares and ADSs which, together with all other ordinary shares and ADSs owned, acquired or agreed to be acquired by STSPL, would represent more than 50% of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares and ADSs following the close of the Offer. If ordinary shares and ADSs tendered into the Offer result in STSPL owning at least 90% of the Company’s outstanding ordinary shares and ADSs (other than those owned by STSPL and its related corporations at the commencement of the Offer), STSPL intends to offer a higher purchase price of S$1.88 per ordinary share or S$18.80 per ADS to all shareholders who accept the Offer, regardless of when their ordinary shares and ADSs are tendered. The Offer would also include an offer by STSPL for the Company’s outstanding $115,000 senior, unsecured and unsubordinated convertible notes due 2008 and the $150,000 2.5% convertible subordinated notes due 2008. The offer for the convertible notes is conditioned on the offer for the ordinary shares and ADSs becoming unconditional in all respects.
 
    Consummation of the Offer is subject to conditions described above and other customary conditions. The Company expects in due course to make further announcements on important information about the Offer, the Company’s board of director’s recommendations, the advice of independent financial adviser and other related matters.
