The Corporation acquired 100% of the stock of Gueishan Island Marine Biology Development Co., Ltd.
(“Gueishan Island”) in December 2012. Thus, Gueishan Island was included in the consolidated financial
statement as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012.
Foreign-currency Transactions
The subsidiaries’ financial statements expressed in foreign currencies have been translated into New
Taiwan dollars at the following exchange rates: Assets and liabilities - year-end spot rate; stockholders’
equity - historical exchange rate; and income statement accounts - current year’s average rate. Differences
resulting from the above translation are recorded as “cumulative translation adjustments” under the
stockholders’ equity.
Nonderivative foreign-currency transactions are recorded in New Taiwan dollars at the rates of exchange in
effect when the transactions occur. Exchange differences arising from the settlement of foreign-currency
assets and liabilities are recognized in profit or loss.
At the balance sheet date, foreign-currency monetary assets and liabilities are revalued using prevailing
exchange rates, and the exchange differences are recognized in profit or loss.
At the balance sheet date, foreign-currency nonmonetary assets that are carried at cost continue to be stated
at exchange rates at trade dates.
Accounting Estimates
Under the above guidelines and principles, certain estimates and assumptions have been used for the
allowance for doubtful accounts; allowance for loss on inventories; depreciation of property and equipment;
deferred charges amortized; impairment of assets; income tax; pension cost; bonuses to employees,
directors and supervisors; etc. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Current and Noncurrent Assets and Liabilities
Current assets include cash and those held primarily for trading purposes or to be realized, sold or
consumed within one year from the balance sheet date. All other assets such as property and equipment
and intangible assets are classified as noncurrent. Current liabilities are obligations incurred for trading
purposes or to be settled within one year from the balance sheet date. All other liabilities are classified as
noncurrent.
Financial Instruments at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss
Financial instruments classified as financial assets or financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
(FVTPL) include financial assets or financial liabilities held for trading. The Corporation and its
subsidiaries recognize a financial asset or a financial liability on its balance sheet when the Corporation and
its subsidiaries become parties to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument. A financial asset
is derecognized when the Corporation and its subsidiaries lose control of their contractual rights over the
financial asset. A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation specified in the relevant contract
is discharged, canceled or expired.
Financial instruments at FVTPL are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs directly attributable
to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities at FVTPL are recognized immediately in profit
or loss. At each balance sheet date subsequent to initial recognition, financial assets or financial liabilities
at FVTPL are remeasured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized directly in profit or loss in the
year in which they arise. On derecognition of a financial asset or a financial liability, the difference
between its carrying amount and the sum of the consideration received and receivable or consideration paid
and payable is recognized in profit or loss. All regular way purchases or sales of financial assets are
recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis.
A derivative that does not meet the criteria for hedge accounting is classified as a financial asset or a
financial liability held for trading. If the fair value of the derivative is positive, the derivative is
recognized as a financial asset; otherwise, the derivative is recognized as a financial liability.
Fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities at the balance sheet date are determined as follows:
Publicly traded stocks - at closing prices; open-end mutual funds - at net asset values; financial assets and
financial liabilities without quoted prices in an active market - at values determined using valuation
techniques; and derivatives - at values calculated using bank-quoted prices.
Noncurrent Assets Classified as Held for Sale
Noncurrent assets that meet the held-for-sale criteria are measured at the lower of carrying amount and fair
value. If the carrying amount exceeds the asset's fair value less costs to sell, an impairment loss is
recognized.
Financial Assets Carried at Cost
Investments in equity instruments with no quoted prices in an active market and with fair values that cannot
be reliably measured, such as non-publicly traded stocks, are measured at their original cost. Cash
dividends are recognized on the ex-dividend date, except for dividends distributed from the pre-acquisition
profit, which are treated as a reduction of investment cost. Stock dividends are not recognized as
investment income but are recorded as an increase in the number of shares. The total number of shares
subsequent to the increase is used for the recalculation of cost per share. An impairment loss is recognized
when there is objective evidence that the asset is impaired. A reversal of this impairment loss is
disallowed.
- 11 -
Impairment of Assets
If the recoverable amount of an asset (mainly property and equipment and deferred charges) is estimated to
be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An
impairment loss is charged to earnings. If an impairment loss reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is
increased accordingly, but the increased carrying amount may not exceed the carrying amount that would
have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. A reversal of
an impairment loss is recognized in earnings.
Inventories
Inventory is vessel fuel, which is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Inventory write-downs
are made by item.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Borrowing costs directly
attributable to the acquisition or construction of property and equipment are capitalized as part of the cost of
those assets. Major additions, replacements and betterments are capitalized, while maintenance and
repairs are expensed currently.
Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives, as follows: buildings, 50
years; transportation equipment, 5 years; vessel equipment, 3 to 25 years; office equipment, 3 to 8 years;
leasehold improvements, lease terms. Property and equipment still in use beyond their original estimated
useful lives are further depreciated over their newly estimated useful lives.
The related cost and accumulated depreciation of property and equipment are derecognized from the
balance sheet upon its disposal. Any gain or loss on disposal of the asset is included in nonoperating gains
or losses in the period of disposal.
Deferred Charges
Deferred charges, mainly the costs of vessel overhaul, golf club memberships and syndicated loan fees, are
initially recorded at cost and amortized using the straight-line method over 2 to 3 years, over 20 years and
over loan terms, respectively.
Convertible Bonds
The Corporation first determines the carrying amount of the liability component by measuring the fair value
of a similar liability that does not have an associated equity component, then determines the carrying
amount of the equity component, representing the equity conversion option, by deducting the fair value of
the liability component from the fair value of the convertible bonds as a whole. The liability component
(excluding embedded derivatives) is measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, while
the embedded non-equity derivatives are measured at fair value. Upon bond conversion, the Corporation
uses the aggregate carrying amount of the liability and equity components of the bonds at the time of
conversion as a basis to record the common shares issued.
Pension
Under the defined benefit pension plan, pension cost is recognized on the basis of actuarial calculations.
Unrecognized net transition obligation and the unrecognized net actuarial gain or loss are amortized using
the straight-line method over the average remaining service years of employees.
- 12 -
Under the defined benefit pension plan, the minimum amount of pension liability should be recognized in
the balance sheet. If the accrued pension liability already shown in the book is less than the minimum
amount, the difference should be recognized as additional pension liability. If the additional liability does
not exceed the sum of unrecognized prior service cost and unrecognized transitional net benefit obligation,
the deferred pension cost account should be charged. Deferred pension cost is classified as an intangible
asset. If the additional liability exceeds this sum, the excess should be charged to the net loss not yet
recognized as net pension cost account, which is classified as a reduction of stockholders’ equity.
Under the defined contribution plan, the required monthly contributions to employees’ individual pension
accounts are recognized as pension cost.
Income Tax
The Corporation applies the inter-year allocation method to its income tax, whereby deferred income tax
assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax effects of temporary differences. Valuation allowances are
provided to the extent, if any, that it is more likely than not that deferred income tax assets will not be
realized. A deferred income tax asset or liability is classified as current or noncurrent in accordance with
the classification of the related asset or liability for financial reporting. However, if a deferred income tax
asset or liability does not relate to an asset or liability in the financial statements, it is classified as current or
noncurrent on the basis of the expected length of time before it is realized or settled.
Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year’s tax provision.
According to the Income Tax Law, an additional tax at 10% of unappropriated earnings is provided for as
income tax in the year the stockholders approve the retention of earnings.
Revenue Recognition, Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Revenue is recognized when the earnings process has been completed and the economic benefits associated
with the transaction have been realized or are realizable. The revenues from vessel leases are recognized
over the contract periods. Cargo revenues are recognized when the cargos are transported to the port of
discharge.
Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts
agreed between the Corporation and its subsidiaries and the customers for service rendered in the normal
course of business. For trade receivables due within one year from the balance sheet date, as the nominal
value of the consideration to be received approximates its fair value and transactions are frequent, fair value
of the consideration is not determined by discounting all future receipts using an imputed rate of interest.
An allowance for doubtful accounts is provided on the basis of a review of the collectability of accounts
receivable. The Corporation and its subsidiaries make this review by an aging analysis of the outstanding
receivables and assessing prior years’ collectability of receivables and economic situation.
Reclassifications
Certain accounts in the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2011 have been
reclassified to conform to the presentation of the financial statements as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2012.

3. ACCOUNTING CHANGE
Operating Segments
On January 1, 2011, the Corporation and its subsidiaries adopted the newly issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 41 - “Operating Segments.” The statement requires that segment
information be disclosed on the basis of the information about the components of the Corporation that
management uses to make operating decisions. SFAS No. 41 requires the identification of operating
segments on the basis of internal reports that are regularly reviewed by the Corporation's chief operating
decision maker in order to allocate resources to the segments and assess their performance. This statement
supersedes SFAS No. 20 - “Segment Reporting.” For this accounting change, the Corporation and its
subsidiaries only changed the presentation of segment information.

The Corporation entered into a joint construction contract with Wang Tai Construction Co., Ltd. (“Wang
Tai”) on February 12, 2009. Under the contract, the Corporation provided land in the Chang-an section in
Taipei City and Wang Tai provided the construction fund. After the completion of the construction, the
Corporation and Wang Tai will own 61 percent and 39 percent of the entire land and building, respectively.
Based on the joint construction contract, the land, the buildings and the buildings under construction, the
financing fund, the proceeds of the sales of land and buildings, and the related interest income should be
entrusted to Mega International Commercial Bank Co., Ltd. As of September 30, 2011, the land was
classified as held for sale because the project was expected to be completed and sold within one year. In
January 2012, the real estate title to the project was transferred, and the Corporation acquired the buildings
ownership under the contract. The fair value of transferred-in assets, buildings, amounted to $320,304
thousand and the cost of transferred-out assets, land, amounted to $347,669 thousand. The loss of $27,365
thousand was recognized from the exchange of assets.
- 16 -
In 2009, the Corporation entered into presale contracts with third parties and related parties for the third and
higher floors of the buildings. The related land rights of the above joint construction project amounted to
$1,567,550 thousand, including related-party transactions amounting to $135,800 thousand with Lan
Jun-De, Lin Hui-Ling and Chen Huo-Tsai. Proceeds of the presales of the residential buildings (and
related land rights) were split between the Corporation and Wang Tai at a ratio of 55.65% to 44.35%, and
those from the presales of the parking spaces (and related land rights) were split at a ratio of 52.44% to
47.56%. As of December 31, 2011, the Corporation had collected $255,057 thousand of the proceeds of
the project, including those from related-party transactions amounting to $26,315 thousand, which was

11. CONVERTIBLE BONDS PAYABLE
On January 14, 2010, the Corporation made a third issue of five-year unsecured convertible bonds, with a
face value of $450,000 thousand and a coupon rate of 0%. The effective interest rate was 2.27%. On the
third anniversary of issuance, the bondholders may require the Corporation to buy back their bonds at
103.03% of face value. The bondholders may request the Corporation to convert the bonds into the
Corporation’s common stock starting from one month after the issuance date to 10 days before the due date.
The conversion price at the issuance of the bonds was set at $46.2 which is required to be adjusted in
accordance with the bond agreement. The Corporation should redeem the remaining bonds at face value
upon maturity. During the period from one month after the issuance date to 40 days before the due date, if
the closing price of the Corporation’s common stock at the Taiwan Stock Exchange reaches 130% of the
conversion price for a period of 30 consecutive trading days, or the total amount of outstanding bonds is
less than 10% of the total issued amount, the Corporation may redeem the remaining bonds at a price
calculated using a predetermined formula.
The Corporation had adjusted the conversion price for the capital increase by cash in accordance with bond
conversion terms. As of December 31, 2012, the adjusted conversion price was $36.48.
As of December 31, 2012, bondholders did not exercise convertible rights and the Corporation did not
redeem any outstanding convertible bonds.

(Concluded)
In July 2010, the Corporation entered into a syndicated secured facility agreement with Industrial Bank of
Taiwan and seven other banks for loan (r), as follows:
a. The credit line is $1.8 billion and the first loan drawdown should not be less than 60% of the credit line.
The first repayment is due on the 18th month from the first loan drawdown date. The credit line will
subsequently be decreased to zero over four periods semiannually. If the credit line drawdown
exceeds the available credit line on the date the credit line is decreased, the Corporation should repay
this excess immediately.
b. The credit period is three years from the first loan drawdown date.
c. Dong Lien Maritime S.A. Panama (“Dong Lien”) used its U.S. certificate of deposit as a collateral for a
syndicated loan. Under the syndicated loan agreement, the Corporation directly own 100% of Dong
Lien and Fortunate Maritime S.A. Panama (“Fortunate”). In addition, the Corporation should have the
power to participate in the operating policy decisions of Dong Lien and Fortunate. Further, Dong Lien
should directly own 100% of the 42 subsidiaries listed on the loan agreement.
d. The Corporation should maintain the following financial ratios under the syndicated loan agreement:
1) Current ratio - the ratio of current assets to current liabilities should not be less than 100%;
2) Financial liabilities ratio - the ratio of financial liabilities plus contingent liabilities to tangible net
assets should not exceed 200%;
3) Interest coverage ratio - the ratio of income before taxes, interest expense, depreciation and
amortization to interest expense should not be less than 400%; and
- 20 -
4) Tangible net assets (equities minus intangible assets) should not be less $6.5 billion.
The above ratios should be calculated on the basis of the audited semiannual and annual consolidated
financial statements accepted by the bank’s documentary agent. However, the Corporation failed to meet
the current ratio and the financial liability ratio specified in the syndicated loan agreement on June 30,
2012. As of June 30, 2011, the Corporation reclassified the syndicated loans over one year from the
balance sheet date of NT$1,080,000 thousand to current portion of long-term bank loans. In September
2011, two thirds of the banking syndicate agreed to waive the examination of the required ratios as shown
in the audited consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Early repayment
of the syndicated bank loan was made in June 2012.
New Taiwan dollar demand deposits and U.S. certificate of deposit were used as collaterals for the above
loan (b); U.S. certificate of deposit for loan (h) and (n); land for loan (l); land and building for loan (o); and
vessel equipment, for other secured bank loans.
13. PENSION PLANS
The pension plan adopted by the Corporation under the Labor Pension Act (LPA) is a defined contribution
plan. Under the LPA, the Corporation makes monthly contributions to employees’ individual pension
accounts at 6% of monthly salaries and wages. Related pension costs were $3,942 thousand in 2012 and
$3,503 thousand in 2011.
Based on the defined benefit plan adopted by the Corporation under the Labor Standards Law, pension
payments are calculated on the basis of the length of service and average basic pay of the six months before
retirement. The employee earns two base units each year for the first 15 years of service, and one base
unit for each additional year thereafter, but not more than 45 base units in total.
The Corporation contributes amounts equal to 4.3% of total monthly salaries and wages to a pension fund
administered by the pension fund monitoring committee. The pension fund is deposited in the Bank of
Taiwan in the committee’s name.

14. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Under the Company Law, the capital surplus from shares issued in excess of par (additional paid-in capital
from issuance of common shares and conversion of bonds) 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 (limited to a certain percentage of the Corporation’s paid-in capital and once a year).
The capital surplus from employee stock options may not be used for any purpose.
According to the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation, the legal reserve should be set aside at 10% of
annual income less any deficit. Under Company Law, after a special reserve is appropriated or reversed,
the remainder of income adding prior accumulated unappropriated retained earnings should be distributed at
not less than 2% of employees’ bonus and at not higher than 5% of remuneration to directors and
supervisors. And the above distributions should be approved by the board of directors at stockholders
meeting.
The Corporation’s dividend policy is based on the prudence principle, under which the Corporation
considers the long-term financing structure and operation. Thus, when earnings and funds become
sufficient for operating and expanding, then cash dividends or stock dividends will be distributed. The
most recent dividend policy provides for the distribution of stock dividends at up to 50% of earnings and
cash dividends of at least 50%.
- 22 -
For 2012 and 2011, earnings appropriations included the following: The bonuses to employees were
estimated at $12,000 thousand and $16,000 thousand, respectively, and the remunerations to directors and
supervisors were estimated both at $8,000 thousand, which were 2.83%, 2.79%, 1.89% and 1.39%,
respectively, of appropriations of earnings. Material differences between these estimates and the amounts
proposed by the Board of Directors in the following year are adjusted for also in the following year. If the
actual amounts subsequently resolved by the stockholders differ from the proposed amounts, the differences
are recorded in the year of stockholders’ resolution as a change 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 stockholders’ meeting.
Based on a directive issued by the Securities and Futures Bureau (SFB), an amount equal to the net debit
balance of certain stockholders’ equity accounts (including net loss not recognized as pension cost and
cumulative translation adjustments) should be transferred from unappropriated earnings to a special reserve.
Any special reserve appropriated may be reversed to the extent of the decrease in the net debit balance.
Legal reserve should 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.
Except for non-ROC resident stockholders, all stockholders receiving the dividends are allowed a tax credit
equal to their proportionate share of the income tax paid by the Corporation.
The appropriations from earnings for 2011 and 2010 were approved in the stockholders’ meetings on June
28, 2012 and June 24, 2011, respectively. The appropriations, including dividends per share, were as

to directors and supervisors. The resolved amounts of the bonus to employees and the remuneration to
directors and supervisors were equal to the accrual amounts reflected in the financial statements for the year
ended December 31, 2012.
The 2012 appropriations of earnings, bonus to employees and remuneration to directors and supervisors
will be resolved by the stockholders in their meeting scheduled for June 19, 2013.
For the Corporation to invest in its subsidiaries, the board of directors resolved on November 1, 2012 to
have a capital increase by cash, which was approved by the Securities and Futures Bureau on December 18,
2012. The board resolved to issue 37,000 thousand common shares at NT$19.5 per share, with a NT$10
par value and the record date of March 8, 2013.

ratio for the 2012 earnings, with the current income tax payable taken into consideration, may be
adjusted, depending on the ICA balance on the date of dividend distribution.

The Accounting Research and Development Foundation (ARDF) issued Interpretation 2007-052, which
requires companies to recognize bonuses paid to employees, directors and supervisors as compensation
expenses beginning January 1, 2008. These bonuses were previously recorded as appropriations from
earnings. If the Corporation decides to 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, if the shares have a
dilutive effect, the resulting potential shares should be included in the weighted average number of shares
outstanding used in the calculation of diluted EPS. 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. The dilutive effect
of the potential shares needs to be included in the calculation of diluted EPS until the stockholders resolve
the number of shares to be distributed to employees at their meeting in the following year.

b. Methods and assumptions used in determining fair values of financial instruments
1) The balance sheet carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, restricted assets - current,
short-term bank loans, notes and accounts payable, accrued expenses, and payable on the equity
investment (reclassified as other current liabilities) which were not included in the instruments
mentioned above, approximate fair value because of their short maturities.
2) For financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss and held-to-maturity financial assets
with an active market, the fair value is based on quoted market prices. For those financial
instruments without an active market, the fair value is estimated using valuation techniques
incorporating estimates and assumptions that are consistent with those generally used by other
market participants for instrument pricing.
3) For financial assets carried at cost, the fair values cannot be estimated because related stocks have
no active market and a reliable determination of their fair value entails an unreasonably high cost;
thus, their fair value is not presented.
4) For refundable deposits, restricted assets - noncurrent and guarantee deposits received, their future
receipt, settlement or payment terms are uncertain; thus, their fair value is their book value.
5) For long-term bank loans, their fair value is estimated using the present value of future cash flows
discounted at interest rates the Corporation and its subsidiaries may obtain for similar loans (e.g.,
similar maturities).
6) For convertible bonds payable, their fair value is estimated using the present value of future cash
flows.
c. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, financial assets exposed to fair value interest rate risk amounted to
$0 thousand and $15,138 thousand, respectively; financial liabilities exposed to fair value interest rate
risk amounted to $1,279,738 thousand and $1,527,863 thousand, respectively; and financial liabilities
exposed to cash flow interest rate risk amounted to $19,302,009 thousand and $13,904,029 thousand,
respectively.

d. Financial risks
1) Market risk
Financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss are held by the Corporation and its
subsidiaries for trading in active markets. Hence, the Corporation and its subsidiaries are exposed
to market risks as a result of price fluctuations. The Corporation and its subsidiaries run a control
system to mitigate this risk, and management does not anticipate any material loss due to this risk.
The Corporation and its subsidiaries also hold foreign-currency assets, liabilities, forward exchange
contracts and currency option contracts. Hence, the Corporation and its subsidiaries are exposed
to market risks as a result of exchange rate fluctuations. The Corporation and its subsidiaries run a
control system and monitor the exchange rate fluctuations to reduce market risks.
2) Credit risk
The Corporation and its subsidiaries are exposed to credit risk on counter-parties’ default on
contracts. However, the amount of the Corporation and its subsidiaries’ maximum exposure to
credit risk on its financial instruments is equal to the book value. In addition, the Corporation and
its subsidiaries transact only with selected financial institutions and corporations with good credit
ratings. Thus, management does not anticipate any material losses on default on contracts.
3) Liquidity risk
The Corporation and its subsidiaries meet their cash flow demand in operation mainly through
financing, which includes using unused credit line and entering into new loan agreements with
financial institutions.
In addition, the Corporation and its subsidiaries’ financial instruments at fair value through profit or
loss is publicly traded in an active market and can readily be sold in the market at their approximate
fair values. However, their financial assets that are carried at cost are with significant liquidity
risks because these assets do not have quoted market prices in an active market.
4) Cash flow interest rate risk
The Corporation and its subsidiaries’ short-term and long-term loans are floating-rate loans.
Effective interest rates and future cash flows of the Corporation and its subsidiaries will fluctuate as
a result of changes in market interest rate.
The Corporation issued zero-coupon convertible bonds; thus, there is no cash flow interest rate risk
due to interest rate fluctuations.
22. OPERATING SEGMENT FINANCIAL INFORMATION
a. Segment information
On January 1, 2011, the Corporation and its subsidiaries adopted the newly issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 41 - “Operating Segments.” SFAS No. 41 requires
identification of operating segments on the basis of internal reports that are regularly reviewed by the
Corporation and its subsidiaries' chief operating decision maker in order to allocate resources to the
segments and assess their performance. The Corporation and other subsidiaries are regarded as one
operating segment and mainly provides cargo shipping services and acts as a shipping agency.
However, Gueishan Island Marine Biology Development Co., Ltd. has not engaged in operating
activities. The information of the operating segment is the same as that presented in the accompanying
financial statements.
