INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS’ REVIEW REPORT The Board of Directors and Shareholders Phison Electronics Corp. We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Phison Electronics Corp. (the “Corporation”) and its subsidiaries as of September 30, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the nine months then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’s management. Our responsibility is to issue a report on these consolidated financial statements based on our reviews. Except as stated in the following paragraph, we conducted our reviews in accordance with Statement of Auditing Standards No. 36 - “Engagements to Review Financial Statements” of the Republic of China. A review consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. As stated in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the financial statements of certain consolidated subsidiaries as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 have not been reviewed. As of September 30, 2012 and 2011, the total assets of these subsidiaries were 1.34% (NT$248,153 thousand) and 0.43% (NT$63,832 thousand) and the total liabilities of these subsidiaries were 0.02% (NT$1,218 thousand) and 0.01% (NT$335 thousand) of the related consolidated amounts as of September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The total net operating revenue of these subsidiaries were 0.05% (NT$11,952 thousand) and 0% (NT$175 thousand), respectively, of consolidated net operating revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 and their net loss were (0.90%) (NT$18,891 thousand) and (0.35%) (NT$6,221 thousand), respectively, of consolidated net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011. Furthermore, as stated in Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements, the investments accounted for by the equity method as of September 30, 2012 and 2011 amounted to NT$106,960 thousand and NT$188,899 thousand, respectively, and the investment loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were NT$59,475 thousand and NT$7,639 thousand, respectively.

14. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

a. Capital surplus

The capital surplus from shares issued in excess of par (additional paid-in capital from issuance of common shares, additional paid-in capital from issuance of common shares on the exercise of options, and transfer of the value of expired options) may be used to offset a deficit; in addition, when the Corporation has no deficit, such capital surplus may be distributed as cash dividends or transferred to capital. This transfer is limited to a certain percentage of the Corporation’s paid-in capital. However, the capital surplus from long-term equity investments may not be used for any purpose.

Page 15: Phison Electronics Corp. and Subsidiaries

- 14 -

b. Appropriation of earnings and dividend policy

The Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation provide that, under the board of directors’ resolution, annual net income (less any deficit and 10% as legal reserve) less special reserve based on relevant laws and regulations and any portion decided to be retained plus unappropriated earnings of prior years should be distributed as follows: 1) 1 %, as remuneration to directors and supervisors; 2) 12% to 25%, as bonus to employees; and 3) The remainder, as dividends. If the bonus to employees is distributed as stock dividend, the employees of the Corporation must meet certain terms to be eligible for these stock dividends. The Corporation’s dividend appropriation is based on its profitability. In addition, since the Corporation is expanding fast, dividends will be appropriated in consideration of the current and future investment environment, capital requirements, domestic and international competition, capital budget plans, shareholders’ interests, balance between cash and stock dividends, and the Corporation’s long-term financial plans. The board of directors prepares the proposal on annual earnings distribution for the shareholders’ approval. Profits may be distributed as cash or stock dividend; however, cash dividends should be at least 10% of total distribution. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the bonus to employees and remuneration to directors and supervisors represented 12% and 1%, respectively, of net income (net of the bonus and remuneration). If there are material differences between the bonus and remuneration estimates and the amounts proposed by the board of directors in the following year, the estimates are adjusted in the year of the proposal. If the actual amounts subsequently resolved by the shareholders differ from the proposed amounts, the differences are recorded in the year of shareholders’ resolution as changes in accounting estimate. If a share bonus is resolved to be distributed to employees, the number of shares is determined by dividing the amount of the share bonus by the closing price (after considering the effect of cash and stock dividends) of the shares of the day immediately preceding the shareholders’ meeting. A regulation issued by the Securities and Futures Bureau requires a special reserve to be made from the unappropriated earnings, equivalent to the debit balance of any account shown in shareholders’ equity. The special reserve appropriated will be reserved to the extent that the net debit balance reverses. Legal reserve shall be appropriated until it has reached the Corporation’s paid-in capital. This reserve may be used to offset a deficit. If the Corporation has no deficit and the legal reserve has exceeded 25% of the Corporation’s paid-in capital, the excess may be transferred to capital or distributed in cash. Under the Imputed Income Tax System, ROC-resident shareholders are allowed tax credits for the income tax paid by the Corporation. Tax credits allocated to shareholders are based on the balance of the imputation credit account (ICA) on the dividend distribution date.

c. Stock options

On January 3, 2008 and November 19, 2008, the Financial Supervisory Commission approved the Corporation’s Employee Stock Option Plans, consisting of the fourth plan and the fifth plan, respectively, and under which qualified employees obtained 500 thousand units, and 4,000 thousand units, respectively, of option rights. For all the plans, each unit represents one common share. The fourth plan option rights are valid for three years from the date of issuance and exercisable at certain percentages after the second year of issuance, and the fifth plan option rights are valid for four years from the date of issuance and exercisable at 50 percent after the second year of issuance and at 100 percent after the third year of issuance. Under the Plans, the options are granted at an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Corporation’s common shares as shown on the OTC exchange on the grant date. Based on the Plans, the exercise prices have been adjusted to reflect the appropriation of dividends. The changes in outstanding stock options for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 were as follows: Nine Months Ended September 30 2012 2011

The fourth plan and fifth plan options were issued on November 20, 2008 and January 19, 2009, respectively, and these two plans were priced using the Black-Scholes pricing model, and the inputs to the model were as follows: The Fourth Plan The Fifth Plan Grant-date share price (NT$) $39.10 $74 Exercise price (NT$) $39.10 $74 Expected volatility 63.47% 60.24%-62.55% Expected life (years) 2.50 3.00-3.50 Expected dividend yield 0% 0% Risk-free interest rate 1.33% 0.84%-0.88% Compensation costs recognized for employee stock options were $1,069 thousand and $14,767 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The ARDF issued Interpretation 2007-052, that requires companies to recognize bonus paid to employees and remuneration to directors and supervisors as compensation expenses beginning January 1, 2008. These bonuses were previously recorded as appropriations from earnings. If the Corporation may settle the bonus to employees by cash or shares, the Corporation should presume that the entire amount of the bonus will be settled in shares and the resulting potential shares should be included in the weighted average number of shares outstanding used in the calculation of diluted EPS, if the shares have a dilutive effect. The number of shares is estimated by dividing the entire amount of the bonus by the closing price of the shares at the balance sheet date. Such dilutive effect of the potential shares needs to be included in the calculation of diluted EPS until the shareholders resolve the number of shares to be distributed to employees at their meeting in the following year.

16. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

a. The methods and assumptions applied in determining fair values of financial instruments were as

follows:

1) Short-term financial instruments - the carrying value reported in the balance sheets is a reasonable basis for estimating fair value because these instruments have short maturities. These instruments included cash, notes and accounts receivable, other financial assets, restricted assets, short-term loans, notes and accounts payable and accrued expenses.

2) Fair values of financial instruments designated as at FVTPL and available-for-sale financial assets

are based on their quoted prices in an active market. For those instruments with no quoted market prices, their fair values are determined using valuation techniques incorporating estimates and assumptions consistent with those generally used by other market participants to price financial instruments.

3) Financial assets carried at cost - noncurrent have no active market and entail an unreasonably high

cost to obtain verifiable fair values. Therefore, no fair value is presented. 4) For guarantee deposits paid and guarantee deposits received, fair values are estimated at their

carrying amount because these deposits do not have specific due dates.

b. The fair values of financial assets and liabilities were not simultaneously determined by quoted prices in active markets and by estimations using valuation methods.

c. The gain was recognized $46 thousand and $254 thousand for fair value changes based on of using

valuation methods for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. d. The financial assets exposed to fair value interest rate risk amounted to $753,197 thousand and

$486,121 thousand as of September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The financial assets exposed to cash flow interest rate risk amounted to $7,311,260 thousand and $4,810,488 thousand as of September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The financial liabilities exposed to cash flow interest rate risk amounted to $732,375 thousand and $0 thousand as of September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

e. Financial risks:

1) Market risk

The market risk includes foreign exchange rate risk and market price risk. All foreign loans are used to hedge exchange rate fluctuations of net foreign currency-denominated assets or liabilities. Gains or losses on these hedging instruments are likely to offset the gains or losses on the hedged items. Thus, the market risk is immaterial. The fair values of financial assets held for trading and available-for-sale financial assets are influenced by market prices.

2) Credit risk

Credit risk represents the potential impact on financial assets that the Corporation and subsidiaries might encounter if counter-parties or third parties breach the contracts. Other factors that affect financial assets include credit risk concentration, components of financial instruments, contract amount and other receivables. The maximum credit risk exposure of each financial instrument is the same as its carrying value.

Page 20: Phison Electronics Corp. and Subsidiaries

- 19 -

3) Liquidity risk

The Corporation and subsidiaries have no cash flow risks because they have sufficient operating capital to meet cash needs. However, as of September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Corporation and subsidiaries had equity instruments without any active market; thus, they expect to have significant liquidity risk. Because the Corporation and subsidiaries’ equity instruments account for a small percentage of the total assets, the liquidity risk will have no significant effect.

4) Cash flow interest rate risk. Due to market interest rate fluctuations, assets and liabilities with floating interest rate will affect cash flows. The Corporation and subsidiaries expect, however, that fluctuations will have no significant effect on future cash flows.

17. RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

6) In August 2009, the Corporation sold a part of its land and buildings to Aptos Technology Inc.

(“Aptos”), an equity-method investee, to expand Aptos’s production facilities for its growing share of the market. The selling price was $170,811 thousand, and the gain on this sale was $49,309 thousand, but of this amount, $10,221 thousand was deferred and recognized at the percentage of the Corporation’s equity in Aptos. However, when Aptos increased its capital on March 2, 2011, the Corporation did not subscribe for the new shares, thus, the Corporation ceased to have significant influence on this investee. For the nine months ended September 30, 2011, the remaining deferred credit of $9,975 thousand had all been realized. The Corporation also bought testing equipment from Flexmedia Electronics Corporation for $3,253 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

4) Exemptions in International Financial Reporting Standards 1

International Financial Reporting Standards 1 First-time Adoption of International Reporting Standards states procedures that apply when companies first adopt IFRSs as consolidated financial statements base. According to the Standard, the Corporation and subsidiaries should construct accounting policies under IFRSs and trace the adoption of those accounting policies to determine the beginning balance sheet on IFRSs conversion day (January 1, 2012). The Standard exempts several accounting policies from tracing. Exemptions adopted by the Corporation and subsidiaries are as follows: Employee benefit The Corporation and subsidiaries chose to recognize all unrecognized accumulated actuarial income/losses under retained earnings as of January 1, 2012. Share-based payment The Corporation chose to take the optional exemption from applying IFRS 2 - “Share-based Payment”, retrospectively for the share-based payment transactions granted and vested before January 1, 2012.

5) Material reconciliation on IFRSs conversion

a) Cash equivalents

Under ROC GAAP, the term “cash” used in the financial statements includes time deposits that are cancellable but without any loss of principal. Under IFRSs, cash equivalents are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash and so near their maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value. An investment normally qualifies as a cash equivalent only when it has a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition. Therefore, some certificates of deposit had maturity of more than 3 months but less than 12 months from the date of investment are all classified as “other financial assets”.

As of September 30, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the Corporation and subsidiaries reclassified $37,640 thousand and $0 thousand of cash to other financial assets, respectively.

b) Deferred income tax assets

Under ROC GAAP, a deferred tax asset or liability should be classified as current or noncurrent according to the classification of the related asset or liability for financial reporting. However, if a deferred asset or liability cannot be related to an asset or liability in the financial statements, it should be classified as current or noncurrent on the basis of the expected realization date of the temporary difference. Under IFRSs, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are all classified as noncurrent. As of September 30, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the Corporation and subsidiaries reclassified $68,721 thousand and $61,450 thousand of deferred income tax assets to noncurrrent assets, respectively.

c) Employee benefit - actuarial gains and losses under defined benefit plan Under ROC GAAP, the Corporation and subsidiaries should use straight-line method to amortize unrecognized net transitional obligation generated by first adoption of SFAS No. 18 - “Accounting for pensions”, based on expected employees’ average remaining service year, which is recognized as part of the net periodic pension cost for the year. Under IFRSs, unrecognized net transitional obligation should all be recognized in current period and reconcile retained earnings because it is inapplicable to IAS 19 - “Employee Benefits”. Under ROC GAAP, actuarial gains and losses can be amortized based on employees’ average remaining service year through the corridor approach. The amount should be amortized into the income statement. Under IFRSs, according to IAS 19 - “Employee Benefits”, actuaried gain/loss is recognized under other comprehensive income and is presented as a part of retained earnings on statement of change in stockholder equity. The Corporation and subsidiaries will not reclassify to income statement in the following years. As of September 30, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the Corporation and subsidiaries reduced $0 thousand and $1,092 thousand of other assets; increased $21,829 thousand and $21,760 thousand of accrued pension cost; increased $3,711 thousand and $3,885 thousand of deferred income tax assets according to IAS 19 - “Employee Benefits” and IFRS 1 - “First-time Adoption of International Reporting Standards”. Pension costs decreased by $1,024 thousand and income tax expenses increased by $174 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

d) Allowances for sales returns and discounts Under ROC GAAP, sales returns and discounts are estimated on the basis of historical experience and relevant factors. Sales returns and allowances are recognized as reductions of current year’s sales revenue when allowances are recognized as deductions from accounts receivable. Under IFRSs, allowances for sales returns and discounts is present obligation as a result of a past event with uncertainty in amount and timing; therefore, it is reclassified as a reserve (under current liabilities). As of September 30, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the Corporation and subsidiaries reclassified $56,681 thousand and $88,796 thousand of allowances of sales returns and discounts to liability reserve - current, respectively.

e) Changes in ownership interest in an associate not resulting in a loss of significant influence

(change in ownership level due to the investor’s subscription for shares issued by an investee at a rate not equal to its current equity).

Under ROC GAAP, the Corporation subscribes for additional shares issued by an investee at a rate not equal to its current equity, the increase in the Corporation’s equity in the investee’s net assets is credited to capital surplus. Any decrease in the Corporation’s equity in the investee’s net assets is debited to capital surplus. If capital surplus is not enough for debiting purposes, the debit is made against unappropriated earnings. Under IFRSs, changes in ownership interest in an associate not resulting in a loss of significant influence are deemed disposal. Further, according to “IFRSs adoption FAQ”, issued by Taiwan Stock Exchange Corp., capital surplus should be reconciled on conversion day if it does not conform to IFRSs or related Corporation Law and Ministry of Economics Affairs regulations. According to “IFRSs adoption FAQ”, issued by Taiwan Stock Exchange Corp., the Corporation and subsidiaries opt not to trace back and reclassify capital surplus - long-term investment to retained earnings. As of September 30, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the Corporation reduce $7,488 thousand and $10,373 thousand of capital surplus - long-term investment. Further, other income is reduced by $2,885 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

f) Prepayments for equipment

Under ROC GAAP, the prepaid item for purchasing property should be classified as “prepayments for equipment” under fixed assets. Under IFRSs, they are reclassified as prepaid item in the category of other assets and should be classified as current or noncurrent on the basis of the expected realization date. As of September 30, 2012 and January 1, 2012, the Corporation and subsidiaries reclassified $12,797 thousand and $4,011 thousand of prepayments for equipment to other current assets, respectively.

c. The Corporation and subsidiaries have prepared the above assessments in compliance with (a) the 2010

version of the IFRSs translated by the ARDF and issued by the FSC and (b) the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers amended and issued by the FSC on December 22, 2011. These assessments may be changed as the International Accounting Statements Board continues to issue or amend standards, and as the FSC may issue new rules governing the adoption of IFRSs by companies with shares listed on the TSE or traded on the Taiwan GreTai Securities Market or Emerging Stock Market. Actual accounting policies adopted under IFRSs in future may differ from those contemplated during the assessments.
