Advanced Semiconductor Engineering, Inc.

Conflict Minerals Report

For the year ended December 31, 2015

 

Corporate Overview and Product Scope

 

Advanced Semiconductor Engineering, Inc. (“ASE”, “we”, “our”, “us”) is among the leading providers of semiconductor packaging and testing services based on 2015 revenues. Our services include semiconductor packaging, production of interconnect materials, front-end engineering testing, wafer probing and final testing services, as well as integrated solutions for electronic manufacturing services in relation to computers, peripherals, communications, industrial, automotive, and storage and server applications. We utilize gold, tantalum, tin and tungsten which are necessary to deliver our packaging, materials and electronic manufacturing services.

 

We have manufacturing facilities located in Taiwan, China, Malaysia, Japan, Singapore, Korea and the United States that provide packaging, testing and materials services to many semiconductor companies around the world. A typical customer engagement involves receiving consigned silicon wafers from the customer, performing a series of manufacturing services to the wafers, and delivering a completed, packaged integrated circuit back to the customer. In the performance of packaging and materials services, we typically add gold and tin as direct materials in the manufacturing process, and we occasionally add tungsten and tantalum. We do not use gold, tin, tungsten or tantalum in our testing services.

 

Since our acquisition of a controlling interest in Universal Scientific Industrial Co., Ltd. in February 2010, we provide a broad range of electronic manufacturing services to a global customer base. We have manufacturing facilities located in Taiwan, China and Mexico that provide electronic manufacturing services. In providing these services, we acquire numerous electronic and non-electronic components, and assemble them into sub-assemblies and finished products. Typical materials and components which we utilize include solder (tin based), electrolytic capacitors (tantalum bearing), integrated circuits (gold wire) and high temperature wires (tungsten). Gold, tin, tungsten and tantalum are essential to our electronic manufacturing services.

 

All packaging and materials services and electronic manufacturing services we provide contain one or more of the conflict minerals: gold, tin, tungsten or tantalum.

Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (RCOI)

 

For our packaging and materials services, we purchase gold, tin, tungsten and tantalum from 116 suppliers. Each of these 116 suppliers has supplied us with the information required in a Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT) authored by the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition, Incorporated & Global e-Sustainability Initiative, or EICC-GeSI, with an accounting of their conflict mineral Smelters or Refiners (SoRs). Each of these 116 suppliers is in receipt of our conflict minerals policy, and each has confirmed their understanding of its principles and their willingness to comply.

 

For our electronic manufacturing services, we performed an assessment of all 1,316 suppliers who provided us with gold, tin, tungsten or tantalum in 2015 and selected 262 suppliers for our 2015 Conflict Minerals Report based on (1) suppliers from whom we purchased greater than USD $6 million in purchase volume (which collectively accounted for 95% of our total purchase volume) and (2) suppliers whose conflict minerals are used in the services we provide to our top three customers.

 

Below are the results of our Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry, or RCOI.

Part I. Due Diligence

 

Design of Due Diligence

 

ASE designed its due diligence measures to conform to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas: Second Edition, including the related supplements on tantalum, tin, tungsten, and gold.

 

Due Diligence Measures Performed

 

OECD Step 1 Establish strong company management systems

A. Adopt and clearly communicate to suppliers and public

 

The ASE Group Corporate Policy for Sourcing Conflict Minerals is posted on our website (and attached here as Annex A) as well as distributed to each of our suppliers of conflict minerals who must agree in writing that the policy will be complied with.

 

Additionally, we require each supplier to certify they understand our conflict minerals policy and will comply with its covenants.

 

Finally, every factory manager must certify they comply with our conflict minerals policy. They are also responsible for communicating the policy throughout their organizations and implementing procedures to ensure compliance.

B. Structure internal management to support due diligence

 

Our conflict minerals management team is a comprehensive cross-functional team under the direction of our Chief Operating Officer.  The team provides planning, analysis, management, tracking, monitoring and communication for the business wide initiative.  They hold regular and frequent meetings to ensure progress against requirements.

C. Establish a system of controls and transparency over the mineral supply chain

 

Conflict minerals procedures are documented in our specifications system and managed by our quality control organization. The bills-of-materials required for different customer products across all manufacturing operations are controlled by our manufacturing execution system software.

 

The primary method for gathering conflict mineral data is through the deployment and gathering of Conflict Free Sourcing Initiative (CFSI) Conflict Minerals Reporting Templates (CMRTs). We store this data on a comprehensive filing system and maintain other related records for a minimum of five years.

 

Aligned with industry practice, we designed a conflict minerals data tool with simple functions that manages large number of supplier CMRTs, auto-validates smelter status with real-time CFSI smelter list and aggregates smelter reporting for our customers.

 

11

 

 

D. Strengthen company engagement with suppliers

 

In addition to formal written documentation, ASE is building person-to-person links between employees and suppliers to improve the quality and consistency of vendor communications.

 

We held an annual supplier seminar to announce new requirements, and provided training to suppliers to enable them to better understand how to set up their conflict minerals monitoring mechanism and to improve smelter data quality.

 

We amended and added conflict minerals terms to our ASE Group Purchase Order pursuant to which our suppliers agree (i) to use industry standard efforts to ensure that gold, tantalum, tungsten and tin in materials covered by the purchase order and sourced from mines in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or its adjacent regions do not directly or indirectly finance illegal militia in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or its adjacent regions, (ii) to promptly notify us if any materials covered by the purchase order do contain conflict minerals that are not DRC Conflict Free and to provide a report on the mine and/or smelter of origin of the conflict minerals and the related chain of custody and (iii) to only supply us with materials that contain DRC Conflict Free minerals sourced from certified DRC Conflict Free smelter and refinery programs.

E. Establish grievance mechanism

ASE encourages suppliers and employees to have open and honest dialog on issues of mutual interest.

 

We provide two email addresses (ASE_CM@aseglobal.com and conflictminerals@ms.usi.com.tw) for general surveys, inquiries and grievances regarding our conflict minerals program.

OECD Step 2 Identify and assess risk in the supply chain

A. Identify risks in the supply chain

 

Our process for identifying conflict minerals risk in the supply chain is as follows:

 

(a)   Identify all direct materials and components in the supply chain that contain conflict minerals.

 

(b)   Identify suppliers of materials and components that contain conflict minerals.

 

(c)   Gather CMRTs from our suppliers of conflict minerals.

 

(d)   Depending on the enormity and complexity of the supply chain:

 

·   Assess the value of the annual purchase volume of all conflict minerals.

 

·   Prioritize conflict mineral sources by dollar volume to leverage impact from available analytical resources.

 

12

 

 

B. Assess risks of adverse impacts

(a) Assess data gathered on templates to identify potential inconsistencies or “red flags.”

 

(b) Define annual supplier risk criteria.

 

(c) Carry out on-site or document audit for suppliers determined as at-risk suppliers according to the risk criteria.

 

(d) Follow up as appropriate to resolve items of concern.

OECD Step 3 Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks
A. Report finding to designated senior management Periodic reviews are held among team members and with senior management to ensure they are aware of current conflict minerals compliance status.

B. Devise and adopt a risk management plan

 

In 2015, we compared supplier smelter data to CFSI RCOI data (when available) to identify actual smelter origins.

 

We used a corporate standard conflict minerals audit checklist and implemented an on-site or document audit process to validate suppliers’ mechanisms related to important aspects of conflict minerals management. 

C. Implement the risk management plan, monitor and track performance of risk mitigation efforts and report back to designated senior management

 

Our packaging and materials services mitigate supply chain risk to conflict minerals in two ways:

 

(a)    We work with non-compliant suppliers to obtain CFSP certification, or an equivalent. Suppliers unwilling or incapable of achieving such certification are replaced with compliant suppliers.

(b)    For compliance year 2015, we received CMRTs from 100% of our conflict mineral suppliers.

 

Our electronic manufacturing services mitigate supply chain risk to conflict minerals in two ways:

 

(a)    We work with non-compliant suppliers to obtain CFSP certification, or an equivalent. Suppliers unwilling or incapable of achieving such certification are replaced with compliant suppliers.

(b)    For compliance year 2015, our electronic manufacturing services identified 262 suppliers that accounted for 95% of our total purchase volume and whose conflict minerals are used in the services we provide to our top 3 customers; we received CMRTs from 99.2% of these conflict mineral suppliers.

D. Undertake additional fact and risk assessments for risks requiring mitigation, or after a change of

We have begun supplier audits to assess the accuracy of data and statements made by larger suppliers. This program will be broadened over time.

circumstances to use and to manage our supplier smelter data.
OECD Step 4 Carry out independent third-party audit of supply chain due diligence at
identified points in the supply chain
 

For CY 2015, ASE has undertaken an Independent Private Sector Audit (IPSA) of our Conflict Minerals Report in compliance with the requirements set forth in the SEC Conflict Minerals Final Rule and subsequent SEC Guidance.

 

In addition, as a member of CFSI, we leverage the due diligence conducted on smelters by the CFSP which uses independent third-party auditors to audit the source of the conflict minerals used by smelters.

 

OECD Step 5 Report on supply chain due diligence.
  ASE filed a Form SD and Conflict Minerals Report for Compliance Year 2015 with the US Securities and Exchange Commission on or before the May 31, 2016 deadline in compliance with the SEC Conflict Minerals Final Rule and subsequent guidance.

Part II. Due Diligence Determination and Product Declaration

 

Product Declaration

 

Our RCOI results did not provide us a sufficient level of confidence to enable us to report that all our products are conflict-free. Pursuant to Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, we therefore conducted additional due diligence on the source and chain of custody of the necessary conflict minerals in our products in order to obtain reasonable and reliable evidence that the gold, tin, tungsten or tantalum used by us in 2015 either (i) did not directly or indirectly benefit violent organizations in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or adjacent regions or (ii) came from recycled or scrap sources.

 

Based on our RCOI analysis and due diligence measures described in this report, we made the following product determinations.

 

Packaging and Materials Services:

 

We reasonably believe that the identified SoRs used in all our packaging and materials services products are DRC Conflict-Free.

 

Electronic Manufacturing Services:

 

We reasonably believe that the identified SoRs used in our System in Module and System in Package products are DRC Conflict-Free. And all other products from our electronic manufacturing services are DRC Conflict Undeterminable.

Annex A – ASE Group Corporate Policy for Sourcing Conflict Minerals

 

The mining and distribution of “conflict minerals”1 originating from the Democratic Republic of the Congo are sometimes controlled by violent organizations in order to fund conflict in that country and adjacent regions. Our industry supply chains are inadvertently subject to metals derived from these conflict minerals which can be introduced through the metals we use such as gold, tin, tantalum and tungsten. ASE Group is dedicated to the elimination of these conflict minerals in our supply chain, and to use only conflict-free minerals2 responsibly sourced around the world. It is also our objective to support the continued use of conflict-free minerals from the DRC and the adjacent regions such that responsible mining is not diminished.

 

All suppliers to ASE Group must support this policy by:

 

(a)Being diligent in their assessment and validation of their supply chains to ensure ASE Group’s objectives of a transparent supply chain and conflict-free purchases are inputs to the services and products we produce.

 

(b)Be in compliance at all times with all regional and international regulations for conflict minerals.

 

(c)Be in compliance at all times with industry standards for the sourcing and reporting of conflict minerals.

 

(d)Being diligent and accurate in their formal assurances of conflict-free minerals provided to us.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1 Conflict minerals are columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite, or their derivatives as defined in the Dodd-Frank Act section 1502 and SEC Rule 13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

 

2 Conflict-free minerals are conflict minerals that through their distribution directly or indirectly do not benefit violent organizations in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and its adjacent regions.
