Letter to Shareholders Dear Shareholders: Thank you all for your support of Compal Electronics, Inc. (hereafter referred to as “Compal”) over the past year! The year of 2015 was a dramatic year in a way resembling the “chameleon” as a period of time when the global economic change was indeed beyond everyone’s expectation significantly. Despite the impact of economic recession and weak market demands, with the endeavors and efforts of the entire staff of Compal, the annual sales of the company was well maintained and the net profit also showed a growth over the previous fiscal year. Looking ahead of this year, the global economy is likely to be still in recession. However, we believe that corporations should continue to strive for research and developments and vigorously expand new businesses to be ready for the future challenges ahead without using the excuse of the economic recession. Here, with respect to the operational performance of last year and the operation outlook of this year, we summarize the following for you: 2015 Financial Performance The consolidated sales of Compal in 2015 was NT$847,306 million dollars, slightly up by 0.2% year-on-year, in which the business contribution of non-notebook computer products continued to increase from 23% to 28%. The consolidated operating profit was NT$11,312 million dollars, down 3% year-on-year. Nevertheless, with significant improvement in the non-operating segment and reduction of non-operating loss, the net profit attributed to the parent company was NT$ 8,685 million dollars, up 24% year-on-year. The earning per share (EPS) of the company was NT$ 2.01. 2015 Business Development The total shipment of computer products of the Computer Business Group (PCBG) in 2015 was down by 10% less than the previous year, and it was mainly affected by the weaker demands of the overall market and the global recession. Nevertheless, with the change of the usage habit of the consumers, various types of demands emerged, such as the demands for ultra-slim notebooks, high-end gaming notebooks and two-in-one notebooks, of which the products required more precise market segmentation and positioning. In the fields of slim type material technology, power-saving technology and heat dissipation technology etc., the Company will continue to develop state-of-the art innovative and quality products in cooperation with our clients in order to satisfy the market demands. The total shipment of the products of the Smart Device Business Group (SDBG) in 2015 was up by 30% over the previous year. Such rapid growth benefited from the development of the tablet business and the continuous investment in the development of the new technology of LTE smartphone as well as the cooperation with our new prospective clients. For tablets, Compal constantly develops new usage models and integrates with the application of the Internet-of-Things (IoT). For smartphones, the company also vigorously develops image technology and new designs of software services in order to create unique products. Accordingly, Compal continues to maintain its leading position in the industry. 3 Corporate Governance & Social Responsibility During the development of the business, Compal is also committed to invest in the corporate sustainability for business operations in a long term. With regard to the corporate governance, Compal has established the Auditing Committee in 2015 and received the award for top 5% ranking in the “First-Term Corporate Governance Evaluation” by the Taiwan Stock Exchange Corporation (TWSE). With regard to the green environment, in addition to the promotion on the green and halogen-free products, the company has also been included in the Climate Disclosure Leadership Index (CDLI) for the first time with recognition by international institutes. In terms of social welfare, Compal continues to fulfill the corporate social responsibility and engages in the promotion of the rural children digital learning program. In 2015, the Commonweath Magazine ranked the company No. 16 in the “CSR Corporate Citizen Awards” for large corporations, and the commitment of Compal in the corporate sustainability was recognized by society once again. 2016 New business Development With years of experience in the technology platform and research and development in the information technology and communication industry, Compal has been able to rapidly and effectively enter various new business fields, including the fields of Server, Auto Electronics, Smart Home, IoT Vertical Solution, Smart Medical and Healthcare and Smart Wearable Devices etc. For the development of new businesses, Compal develops customized and competitive products according to the demands in each field such that the company is not merely acting as a hardware supplier but further engages in the development of integrated system service, and the goal is to establish a new service-oriented business model with sources of revenue. Moreover, with the emerging trend of aging society and health management and the rise of sports fashion, we are of the opinion that smart medical and healthcare will soon be an important area and topic for future industrial development. Considering our solid experience in the information technology and communication along with the advantages in integration and product developments, not to mention our active cross-industry alliance, Compal is able to rapidly develop comprehensive and diverse products and services in light of providing greater sources and developments for the industry of medical and healthcare industry in Taiwan in the future. Business Outlook According to market research firms (IDC), the global market demands for notebook and tablet in 2016 will be down year-over-year, and the annual growth of the smartphone demand will be reduced. Nevertheless, the new application fields, such as server, auto electronics, IoT and smart wearable devices are expected to have opportunities for significant growths and will become competitive areas for all companies. Despite the global economy still being in its down time, with consideration to the global market condition and the business development of the company, Compal expects the total shipment of 5C (Computing, Communication, Consumer, Cloud, Connecting) related electronic products to continue to grow over the previous year. The revenue contribution of the non-notebook business in 2016 is expected to head toward the goal of exceeding 30% contribution in total. 4 In the long term, Compal will continue to advance in innovation, to enhance value-added products and services, to increase the competitiveness of the company and to constantly sustain revenue and profit growth at the same time as our most vital commitments to all of our shareholders. Once again, we sincerely appreciate your support and advice for Compal and wish you a peaceful and prosperous year! Sincerely yours, Chairman: Sheng-Hsiun Hsu (Rock Hsu) Chief Executive Officer (CEO): Jui-Tsung Chen (Ray Chen) Chief Finance Officer (CFO): Ching-Hsiung Lu (Gary Lu) 5 II.

Each component further contains several items. Please refer to the Regulations for details. 4. The Company has evaluated the design and operating effectiveness of its internal control system according to the aforementioned criteria. 5. Based on the findings of the evaluation mentioned in the preceding paragraph, the Company believes that, on December 31 2015, its internal control system (including the supervision and management of subsidiaries), as well as internal controls to monitor the effectiveness of its own objectives concerning operational effectiveness and efficiency, reliability, timeliness, transparency, and regulatory compliance in reporting, and compliance with applicable laws and regulations, were effective in design and operation, and provided reasonable assurance that the above-stated objectives would be achieved. 6.

Competition in the industry has accelerated and Compal is in full thrust integration mode. “Enlightened Living and Computing with a Green Connection” is the Compal vision. Our long-term investment strategies are to focus on products that relate to our core business, to provide the best quality in computing, communications, consumer, cloud and connection, to provide full solutions in cost and technology, and to put emphasis on our partner’s compliance with labor regulations, and the avoidance of human trafficking and slavery. To strengthen the core resources through vertical integration, diversification, and strategic investments or acquisitions as well as integration and horizontal competition. 2. Improve post investment performance, strengthen the integration of Group resources and strategic partnerships with investment businesses, facilitate the cooperation between the Company and invested business, and require their full compliance with labor regulations and those against human trafficking and slavery. Connect related customers to an information network, and form strategic alliances with other industries. Sustain the performance of operating output in social, economic and environmental aspects using a high standard of specification. This includes increasing the efficiency and productivity, improving the rights of the workers, proper economic development, and environmentally friendly production in a clean operating base. The Company fully supports investment companies with good performance to plan for IPO to accelerate the realization of good return on investment. (2) Main causes of profits or losses incurred on investments, and any corrective actions planned 106 The 2015 consolidated profits from investment using the equity method was NT$ 367 million, coming mainly from the operation of Avalue Technology Inc, Compal Precision Module Co Ltd, and Allied Circuit Co Ltd. We also consolidated and integrated similar operations between Synchro-Seiki and MacTech Co Ltd (surviving company), both Company subsidiaries, to improve the efficiency of operation management. (3) 2016 investment plans The long-term investment plan next year will be based on the Company’s operating policy to position ourselves as the pioneer provider of the mobile device solution and provide products, through the integration of R&D resources and clients, of an all-in-one computer, TV, AE and enterprise servers. The Company follows the principle of steady operation and always focuses on our core businesses. We expand on the foundation of our existing businesses, make some vertical integrations where appropriate and expand horizontally into related activities, while continuing to grow our core business. In the vertical integration of upstream and downstream businesses, not involved in hardware production, we also expand the size of our developers and the proportion of software and firmware, to increase the value of their tangible assets and bring in value from additional sales. We expect horizontal mergers and expansions to provide full IoT solutions for our clients which include applications in cross-industry automation, industrial computers, security control, the healthcare industry, cars, smart cities, smart buildings, restaurants and retail outlets, with the primary aim of providing new investment opportunities and challenges. In practice, apart from achieving internal growth under the existing business framework, we also accept the possibility of mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures, technical calibrations and investment activities through bilateral or multi-lateral collaboration between business entities. The Company and its affiliates will proceed with the aforementioned expansion based on the consideration of whether the expansion can strengthen the Group’s advantage and assessment of reasonable risks. In terms of reinvestments, we follow the above mentioned principles and set basic principles in the following three directions: 1. The vertical integration of upstream and downstream businesses to increase the proportion of self-made parts and improve overall competitiveness. 2. Horizontal mergers and expansion of related products and services as well as other industries that provide prominent synergy or growth. 3. Develop technology which is beneficial to the Company or its affiliates, or invest in assets that provide synergy or growth. 107 7.6 Analysis of Risk Management 7.6.1 Effects of Changes in Interest Rates, Foreign Exchange Rates and Inflation on Corporate Finance, and Future Response Measures Aspects Net interest revenue and expense Net gain on exchange (including valuation of financial instruments) Net revenues Pre-tax income (Note) Net interest revenue/expense to net revenues Net interest revenue/expense to pre-tax income Net exchange gains to net revenues Net exchange gains to pre-tax income 1. Interest rate changes: Unit: NTD thousand; % 2015 (299,938) (306,681) 847,305,698 11,792,093 (0.035%) (2.544%) (0.036%) (2.601%) The most recent US Fed meeting statement showed the US economy is experiencing a moderate growth. However, the international financial market is still volatile and the United States continues to face global economic uncertainty. Therefore, the Fed revised the full-year economic growth rate downward to 2.2%, and reduced the rate hike from four to two. The current federal funds rate is from 0.25 to 0.5%. The Central Bank of Taiwan has cut interest rates three times since September 2015, lowering the rate by half a base point each time, to maintain stability of the domestic financial environment and boost the economy. This down- wards revision is a response to the downwards trend of the global economy, and the domestic economic recovery is still slow, as is the expansion of any quantitative easing of monetary policy in major countries. The cash balance of the Company, as of the end of 2015, is about $62.752 billion. The long and short-term bank borrowings are about $58.054 billion and the net interest expense for the year was $299,938 thousand. These account for 0.035% and 2.544% of net sales and income before tax, respectively. As of December 31, 2015, all other factors remain unchanged, the increase of 0.25% in interest will cause an increase in income before tax of $7,629 thousand. The company will watch the change of interest closely and respond in a timely manner if necessary. 2. Exchange rate changes: The company is export –oriented. Therefore, the change and movement of exchange rate have a considerable impact on the annual profit and loss. To minimize the impact on the Company's operating profit or loss, the Company mainly utilizes hedging such as forward foreign exchange contracts and swaps to minimize the risks of exchange rate movements. The full year net exchange gains and losses, including the valuation of financial assets, was $(306,681) thousand, accounting for (0.036%) and (2.601%) of net revenue and net profit before tax, respectively, and this had some impact on Company operations and profitability. As of December 31, 2015, all other factors remain unchanged, a 5% appreciation of USD/TWD will increase the income before tax by $2,462,325 thousand. We will take all necessary actions based on the fluctuation of the exchange rate in the future. 3. Inflation: According to the Central Bank, the impact of the record low prices of international crude oil and raw material will widen gap in negative domestic export. The Directorate-General of the Budget, Accounting and Statistics, forecasts an annual CPI growth rate of 0.69%. While the CP outlook for this year remains stable, we will continue to watch for potential impact on prices. 7.6.2 Policies, Main Causes of Gain or Loss and Future Response Measures with Respect to High-risk, High-leveraged Investments, Lending or Endorsement Guarantees, and Derivatives 108 Transactions 1. The Company does not make high-risk, high-leveraged investments. 2. The Company only offers financing to its related parties, mainly providing short-term financing for their operating needs. 3. The Company is engaged in endorsement and guarantee activities which are only negotiated between subsidiaries and the parent company. The arrangements are covered by proper Endorsement and Guarantee Procedures. 4. The Company uses hedging strategy for the assets and liabilities valued using foreign currencies. The hedging, which is done through forward foreign exchange contracts and swap trading, covers the amount of net assets and liabilities. At the end of 2015, the Company position in open forward foreign exchange contracts amounted to USD 20,000 thousand, EUR 59,140 thousand, and GBP 1,000 thousand and swap contracts of USD 44,000 thousand. We will continue to pay close attention to changes in exchange rates and execute timely hedging in the future. 5. In addition to prudent evaluation and control of the execution of related policies, the Company also relies on regulations such as “Guidelines for Handling Acquisition and Disposal of Assets”, “Endorsement and Guarantee Procedures”, “Third Party Lending Procedures” and “Procedures for the Handling of Derivatives Trading”. 7.6.3 Future Research & Development Projects and Corresponding Budget Other than the Company’s efforts in innovation and improvement of computers, TVs, and other peripheral products, the Company also deems innovative research and development works as the niche for the Company’s sustainable growth. Various R&D programs are developed and proposed by R&D team based on their forecast of new technologies, understand of market trends, and intergration of add-on function. They also team with clients to meet their market planning and detail product developments. In general, the Company’s usually has less than one year product development cycle and aim to shorten the R&D cycle year after year. The IT industry is highly competitive, and the timing of product development is of vital importance. The rapid growth of sales has made the quality, experience and capacity of R&D a decisive factor that will become the key as to whether the Company can achieve its sales target in 2016 and whether the existing clients will renew their contracts. The 2016 R&D expense is expected to be more than NT$ 120 billion. 7.6.4 Effects of and Response to Changes in Policies and Regulations Relating to Corporate Finance and Sales The Company’s management team is paying close attention to any policies or regulations that may impact the Company’s operation. In 2015, the Company made all the necessary responses to significant change in international and domestic policies and regulations, without significant impact on Company operation. 7.6.5 Effects of and Response to Changes in Technology and the Industry Relating to Corporate Finance and Sales Tech products are always being updated and this changes user habits. The demand for different types of application is mushrooming. The presence of ARM and Android has also had an impact on Wintel, which used to have a market monopoly. To cope with these changes, the Company has expanded new business to its existing product lines to embrace the industry trends. As a result, the Company has established teams for innovative products, technology and design to strengthen Company research on consumer behavior, and provide more accurate market segregation and product positioning to satisfy user need. We are also focusing on innovative technology capability and plans for future product and market opportunities. 109 7.6.6 The Impact of Changes in Corporate Image on Corporate Risk Management, and the Company’s Response Measures Compal has concentrated on the IT and Communications industry for many years and has firmly adhered to our business philosophy of transcendence, sincerity, and harmony in a culture of ethics and honesty. We aim to be the best in world-class professional design, manufacture and services. As we pursue business growth, we always remember our obligations as a corporate citizen. We have strengthened Company governance, fulfilled our social responsibility, and have established a good corporate image. In recent years, Company business has expanded, the number of employees has increased and our global production branches have increased in number. We have become acutely aware of the need for periodic checks of the external environment, a self-management system and operational strategies for the early detection of potential corporate crises and the need for concrete and positive response plans and corrective measures. In 2015, Compal was again placed amongst the top 500 and top 2000 businesses by Fortune and Forbes Magazine, respectively. The Company also received the top 5% TWSE-listed Companies award in the first round of “Cooperate Governance Evaluation”, and was ranked as 16th in CSR Corporate Citizenship by CommonWealth magazine. Our corporate imaging has once again been publically affirmed. There were no Company crises in 2015 nor was there any significant event that affected the company image in any way. 7.6.7 Expected Benefits from, Risks Relating to and Response to Merger and Acquisition Plans In addition to continued cultivation of the existing IT and IC operations and enhancement of the core profit base, we are actively seeking out upcoming industries for merger, acquisition, joint venture, technical collaboration and other patterns. The aim being to move into industrial computing, medical networking, IoT networking, vehicle networking and the medical equipment market. We will maintain stable development of existing business and also move ahead of the curve in other areas which have high growth momentum. The Company will integrate resources to increase R&D capacity, improve operational efficiency, and increase competitiveness. We expect to benefit from synergy, have positive impact on future shareholder equity, and maintain adequate control of organizational integration matters and financial risks. 7.6.8 Expected Benefits from, Risks Relating to and Response to Factory Expansion Plans: None 7.6.9 Risks Relating to and Response to Excessive Concentration of Purchasing Sources and Excessive Customer Concentration: None 7.6.10 Effects of, Risks Relating to and Response to Large Share Transfers or Changes in Shareholdings by Directors, Supervisors, or Shareholders with Shareholdings of over 10%: None 110 7.6.11 Effects of, Risks Relating to and Response to the Changes in Management: None 7.6.12 Litigation or Non-litigation Matters The Company and the Company’s subsidiaries, Zhaopal Investment Co., Ltd, Yongpal Investment Co., Ltd, and Kaipal Investment Co. Ltd. (The Company and its subsidiaries) purchased newly issued shares of Chunghwa Picture Tubes, Ltd. (“CPT”) through private placement in 2009. The Company and its subsidiaries purchased newly issued common stocks via the private placement at the cost of NTD $2.5 dollars per share, amount to a total of NTD $7 billion. The Company signed an agreement with Tatung Company (“Tatung”) on such matter. In accordance with the agreement, the Company has the right to request Tatung to purchase all the CPT shares obtained via the private placement within certain agreed periods at the price the Company and its subsidiaires originally paid for the CPT shares plus interest. Despite many requests sent from the Company, Tatung has not fulfilled its obligation in accordance with the contract. The Company filed an arbitration based on the agreement on March 29, 2013, requesting Tatung to perform its obligations. The Company received the verdict on May 12, 2014. According to the verdict, Tatung should pay NTD $2,118,607 thousand to the Company and its subsidiaries for the purchase of all the CPT shares held by the Company and its subsidiaries. Also, Tatung should pay the interest which is calculated at an annual rate of 5% for the period from April 3, 2013 to the actual date of payment. Also, Tatung is responsible for one-third of the legal expenses. With respect to the part which is not favorable to the Company, a civil complaint was lodged with the Taiwan Taipei District Court on June 13, 2014, to revoke the arbitration award. This was rejected by the Taiwan Taipei District Court on May 15, 2015. The Company then filed an appeal to the Taiwan High Court on June 12, 2015, which was rejected on March 29, 2016. The Company appealed to the Taiwan Supreme Court on April 27, 2016. 7.6.13 Other Major Risks International conglomerates faces many risks such as regulatory compliance, business competition, localization, and globalization. It is the responsibility of each Company employee to turn such challenges into future opportunity. Ex ante risk identification, weekly risk assessment and prevention, and post-crisis management, have all been added to the Company target management cycle (PDCA), key performance indicators (KPI), and control system for internal use. Such processes allow the dedicated units responsible for these specific risks to establish rigorous and rapid means for response and a problem-solving culture. By working through regular and irregular reviews and combining education, training and a performance risk appraisal system, they can cope with significantly different kinds of risk management based on local conditions. The company was not faced by any significant risk in 2015. 111 VIII.
