We conducted our audits in accordance with the Rules Governing the Audit of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2007 AND 2006
(Amounts in Thousands of New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Specified Otherwise)
1. GENERAL
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited (the Company or TSMC), a Republic of China (R.O.C.) corporation, was incorporated as a venture among the Government of the R.O.C., acting through the Development Fund of the Executive Yuan; Philips Electronics N.V. and certain of its affiliates (Philips); and certain other private investors. On September 5, 1994, its shares were listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange (TSE). On October 8, 1997, TSMC listed some of its shares of stock on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in the form of American Depositary Shares (ADSs).
The Company is engaged mainly in the manufacturing, selling, packaging, testing and computer-aided designing of integrated circuits and other semiconductor devices and the manufacturing of masks.
As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, the Company had 20,572 and 20,357 employees, respectively.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements are presented in conformity with the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, Business Accounting Law, Guidelines Governing Business Accounting, and accounting principles generally accepted in the R.O.C.
For the convenience of readers, the accompanying financial statements have been translated into English from the original Chinese version prepared and used in the R.O.C. If there is any conflict between the English version and the original Chinese version or any difference in the interpretation of the two versions, the Chinese-language financial statements shall prevail.
Significant accounting policies are summarized as follows:
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with the aforementioned guidelines, law and principles requires management to make reasonable assumptions and estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. The actual results may differ from management’s estimates.
Classification of Current and Noncurrent Assets and Liabilities
Current assets are assets held for trading purposes and assets expected to be converted to cash, sold or consumed within one year from the balance sheet date. Current liabilities are obligations incurred for trading purposes and obligations expected to be settled within one year from the balance sheet date. Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are noncurrent assets and liabilities, respectively.
Cash Equivalents
Repurchase agreements collateralized by government bonds, asset-backed commercial papers and corporate notes acquired with maturities of less than three months from the date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents. The carrying amount approximates fair value.

 


 

Financial Assets/Liabilities at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss
Derivatives that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting are initially recognized at fair value, with transaction costs expensed as incurred. The derivatives are remeasured at fair value subsequently with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets is accounted for using settlement date accounting.
Fair value is estimated using valuation techniques incorporating estimates and assumptions that are consistent with prevailing market conditions. When the fair value is positive, the derivative is recognized as a financial asset; when the fair value is negative, the derivative is recognized as a financial liability.
Available-for-Sale Financial Assets
Investments designated as available-for-sale financial assets include debt securities and equity securities. Available-for-sale financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition. Changes in fair value from subsequent remeasurement are reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. The corresponding accumulated gains or losses are recognized in earnings when the financial asset is derecognized from the balance sheet. A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets is accounted for using settlement date accounting.
Except structured time deposits whose fair value is estimated using valuation techniques, fair values of open-end mutual funds and publicly traded stocks are determined using the net assets value and the closing-price at the end of the period, respectively. For debt securities, fair value is determined using the average of bid and asked prices at the end of the period.
Cash dividends are recognized as investment income upon resolution of shareholders of an investee but are accounted for as a reduction to the original cost of investment if such dividends are declared on the earnings of the investee attributable to the period prior to the purchase of the investment. Stock dividends are recorded as an increase in the number of shares held and do not affect investment income. The cost per share is recalculated based on the new total number of shares. Any difference between the initial carrying amount of a debt security and the amount due at maturity is amortized using the effective interest method, with the amortization recognized in earnings.
If there is objective evidence which indicates that a financial asset is impaired, a loss is recognized. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases, for equity securities, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed to the extent of the decrease and recorded as an adjustment to shareholders’ equity; for debt securities, the amount of the decrease is recognized in earnings, provided that the decrease is clearly attributable to an event which occurred after the impairment loss was recognized.
Held-to-Maturity Financial Assets
Financial securities for which the Company has a positive intention and ability to hold to maturity are categorized as held-to-maturity financial assets and are carried at amortized cost under the effective interest method except for structured time deposits which are carried at acquisition cost. Those financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition. Gains or losses are recognized at the time of derecognition, impairment or amortization. A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets is accounted for using settlement date accounting.
If there is objective evidence which indicates that a financial asset is impaired, a loss is recognized. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease is clearly attributable to an event which occurred after the impairment loss was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed to the extent of the decrease. The reversal may not result in a carrying amount that exceeds the amortized cost that would have been determined as if no impairment loss had been recognized.

 


 

Allowance for Doubtful Receivables
An allowance for doubtful receivables is provided based on a review of the collectibility of notes and accounts receivable. The Company determines the amount of allowance for doubtful receivables by examining the aging analysis of outstanding notes and accounts receivable and current trends in the credit quality of its customers as well as its internal credit policies.
Revenue Recognition and Allowance for Sales Returns and Others
The Company recognizes revenue when evidence of an arrangement exists, shipment is made, price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenues from the design and manufacturing of photo masks, which are used as manufacturing tools in the fabrication process, are recognized when the photo masks are qualified by customers. Provisions for estimated sales returns and others are generally recorded in the period the related revenue is recognized, based on historical experience, management’s judgment, and any known factors that would significantly affect the allowance.
Sales prices are determined using fair value taking into account related sales discounts agreed to by the Company and its customers. Sales agreements typically provide that payment is due 30 days from invoice date for a majority of the customers and 30 to 45 days after the end of the month in which sales occur for some customers. Since the receivables from sales are collectible within one year and such transactions are frequent, fair value of the receivables is equivalent to the nominal amount of the cash to be received.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Inventories are recorded at standard cost and adjusted to the approximate weighted-average cost at the balance sheet date. Market value represents replacement cost for raw materials, supplies and spare parts and net realizable value for work in process and finished goods. The Company assesses the impact of changing technology on its inventories on hand and writes off inventories that are considered obsolete. Period-end inventories are evaluated for estimated excess quantities and obsolescence based on a demand forecast within a specific time horizon, which is generally 180 days or less. Estimated losses on scrap and slow-moving items are recognized and included in the allowance for losses.
Investments Accounted for Using Equity Method
Investments in companies wherein the Company exercises significant influence over the operating and financial policy decisions are accounted for using the equity method. The Company’s share of the net income or net loss of an investee is recognized in the “equity in earnings/losses of equity method investees, net” account. Prior to January 1, 2006, the difference, if any, between the cost of investment and the Company’s proportionate share of the investee’s equity was amortized by the straight-line method over five years, with the amortization recorded in the “equity in earnings/losses of equity method investees, net” account. Effective January 1, 2006, pursuant to the revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, “Long-term Investments in Equity Securities” (SFAS No. 5), the cost of an investment shall be analyzed and the cost of investment in excess of the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired, representing goodwill, shall not be amortized and instead shall be tested for impairment annually. If the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired exceeds the cost of investment, the excess shall be proportionately allocated as reductions to fair values of non-current assets. The accounting treatment for the investment premiums paid before January 1, 2006 is the same as that for goodwill which is no longer being amortized; while investment discounts continue to be amortized over the remaining periods. When an indication of impairment is identified, the carrying amount of the investment is reduced, with the related impairment loss recognized in earnings.
When the Company subscribes for additional investee’s shares at a percentage different from its existing ownership percentage, the resulting carrying amount of the investment in the investee differs from the amount of the Company’s share of the investee’s equity. The Company records such a difference as an adjustment to long-term investments with the corresponding amount charged or credited to capital surplus.

 


 

Gains or losses on sales from the Company to equity method investees are deferred in proportion to the Company’s ownership percentage in the investees until such gains or losses are realized through transactions with third parties. The entire amount of the gains or losses on sales to investees over which the Company has a controlling interest is deferred until such gains or losses are realized through subsequent sales of the related products to third parties. Gains or losses on sales from equity method investees to the Company are deferred in proportion to the Company’s ownership percentages in the investees until they are realized through transactions with third parties. Gains or losses on sales between equity method investees are deferred in proportion to the Company’s weighted-average ownership percentages in the investees that the record such gains or losses until they are realized through transactions with third parties.
If an investee’s functional currency is a foreign currency, translation adjustments will result from the translation of the investee’s financial statements into the reporting currency of the Company. Such adjustments are accumulated and reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.
Financial Assets Carried at Cost
Investments for which the Company does not exercise significant influence and that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured, such as non-publicly traded stocks and mutual funds, are carried at their original cost. The costs of non-publicly traded stocks and mutual funds are determined using the weighted-average method. If there is objective evidence which indicates that a financial asset is impaired, a loss is recognized. A subsequent reversal of such impairment loss is not allowed.
The accounting treatment for cash dividends and stock dividends arising from financial assets carried at cost is the same as that for cash and stock dividends arising from available-for-sale financial assets.
Property, Plant and Equipment and Assets Leased to Others
Property, plant and equipment and assets leased to others are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. When an indication of impairment is identified, any excess of the carrying amount of an asset over its recoverable amount is recognized as a loss. If the recoverable amount increases in a subsequent period, the amount previously recognized as impairment would be reversed and recognized as a gain. However, the adjusted amount may not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, as if no impairment loss had been recognized. Significant additions, renewals and betterments incurred during the construction period are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.
Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated service lives: Buildings — 10 to 20 years; machinery and equipment — 5 years; and office equipment — 3 to 5 years.
Upon sale or disposal of property, plant and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are deducted from the corresponding accounts, with any gain or loss recorded as non-operating gains or losses in the period of sale or disposal.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration paid for acquisition over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. Prior to January 1, 2006, goodwill was amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated life of 10 years. Effective January 1, 2006, pursuant to the newly revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 25, “Business Combinations — Accounting Treatment under Purchase Method” (SFAS No. 25), goodwill is no longer amortized and instead is tested for impairment annually. If an event occurs or circumstances change which indicated that the fair value of goodwill is more likely than not below its carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. A subsequent reversal of such impairment loss is not allowed.

 


 

Deferred Charges
Deferred charges consist of technology license fees, software and system design costs and other charges. The amounts are amortized over the following periods: Technology license fees — the shorter of the estimated life of the technology or the term of the technology transfer contract; software and system design costs and other charges — 3 years. When an indication of impairment is identified, any excess of the carrying amount of an asset over its recoverable amount is recognized as a loss. If the recoverable amount increases in a subsequent period, the previously recognized impairment loss would be reversed and recognized as a gain. However, the adjusted amount may not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of amortization, as if no impairment loss had been recognized.
Research and Development
Expenditures related to research activities and those related to development activities that do not meet the criteria for capitalization are charged to expense when incurred.
Pension Costs
For employees who participate in defined contribution pension plans, pension costs are recorded based on the actual contributions made to employees’ individual pension accounts during their service periods. For employees who participate in defined benefit pension plans, pension costs are recorded based on actuarial calculations.
Income Tax
The Company applies intra-period and inter-period allocations for its income tax whereby (1) a portion of current period’s income tax expense is allocated to the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles; and (2) deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax effects of temporary differences and unused tax credits. 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 tax asset or liability is classified as current or noncurrent in accordance with the classification of its related asset or liability. However, if a deferred tax asset or liability does not relate to an asset or liability in the financial statements, then it is classified as either current or noncurrent based on the expected length of time before it is realized or settled.
Any tax credits arising from purchases of machinery, equipment and technology, research and development expenditures, personnel training expenditures, and investments in important technology-based enterprises are recognized using the flow-through method.
Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current period’s tax provision.
Income tax on unappropriated earnings at a rate of 10% is expensed in the year of shareholder approval which is the year subsequent to the year the earnings are generated.
The R.O.C. government enacted the Alternative Minimum Tax Act (the AMT Act), which became effective on January 1, 2006. The alternative minimum tax (AMT) imposed under the AMT Act is a supplemental tax levied at a rate of 10% which is payable if the income tax payable determined pursuant to the Income Tax Law is below the minimum amount prescribed under the AMT Act. The taxable income for calculating the AMT includes most of the tax-exempt income under various laws and statutes. The Company has considered the impact of the AMT Act in the determination of its tax liabilities.
Stock-based Compensation
Employee stock option plans that are amended or have options granted on or after January 1, 2004 are accounted for by the interpretations issued by the Accounting Research and Development Foundation. The Company adopted the intrinsic value method and any compensation cost determined using this method is recognized in earnings over the employee vesting period.

 


 

Treasury Stock
The Company’s stock held by its subsidiaries is treated as treasury stock and reclassified from investments accounted for using equity method to treasury stock. The gains resulted from disposal of the treasury stock held by subsidiaries and cash dividends received by subsidiaries from the Company are recorded under capital surplus — treasury stock transactions.
Foreign-currency Transactions
Foreign-currency transactions are recorded in New Taiwan dollars at the rates of exchange in effect when the transactions occur. Exchange gains or losses derived from foreign-currency transactions or monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in earnings. At the balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are revalued at prevailing exchange rates with the resulting gains or losses recognized in earnings.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement
Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the newly released Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 37, “Accounting for Intangible Assets”. The Company had reassessed the useful lives and the amortization method of its recognized intangible assets at the effective date. The adoption of the SFAS did not have an effect on the Company’s financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2007.
3. ACCOUNTING CHANGES
On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the newly released Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 34, “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” (SFAS No. 34) and No. 36, “Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation”.
The Company had categorized its financial assets and liabilities upon initial adoption of the newly released SFASs. The adjustments made to the carrying amounts of the financial instruments categorized as financial assets or liabilities at fair value through profit or loss were included in the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles; the adjustments made to the carrying amounts of those categorized as available-for-sale financial assets were recognized as adjustments to shareholders’ equity.
The effect of adopting the newly released SFASs is summarized as follows:
                 
    Recognized as        
    Cumulative Effect of        
    Changes in Accounting     Recognized as a  
    Principles     Separate Component of  
    (Net of Tax)     Shareholders’ Equity  
Financial assets or liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
  $ (246,186 )   $  
Available-for-sale financial assets
           
 
           
 
               
 
  $ (246,186 )   $  
 
           
The adoption of the newly released SFASs resulted in a decrease in net income before cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles of NT$31,267 thousand, a decrease in net income of NT$277,453 thousand, and a decrease in basic earnings per share (after income tax) of NT$0.01, for the six months ended June 30, 2006.

 


 

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the newly revised SFAS No. 5 and SFAS No. 25, which prescribe that investment premiums, representing goodwill, be assessed for impairment at least on an annual basis instead of being amortized. Such a change in accounting principle did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2006.

The amount of interest earned from the callable range accrual deposits is based on a pre-defined range as determined by the 3-month or 6-month LIBOR plus an agreed upon rate ranging between 2.10% and 3.45%. Based on the terms of the contracts, if the 3-month or 6-month LIBOR moves outside of the pre-defined range, the interest paid to the Company is at a fixed rate ranging between zero and 1.5%. Under the terms of the contracts, the bank has the right to cancel the contracts prior to the maturity date.
As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, the principal of the deposits that resided in banks located in Hong Kong amounted to US$60,000 thousand and US$80,000 thousand, respectively; the principal of those resided in banks located in Singapore amounted to US$20,000 thousand.

Capital surplus consisted of the following:
                 
    June 30  
    2007     2006  
From merger
  $ 24,003,546     $ 24,003,546

  $ 53,725,604     $ 53,822,486  
 
           
The Company’s Articles of Incorporation provide that, when allocating the net profits for each fiscal year, the Company shall first offset its losses in previous years and then set aside the following items accordingly:
  a.   Legal capital reserve at 10% of the profits left over, until the accumulated legal capital reserve has equaled the Company’s paid-in capital;
 
  b.   Special capital reserve in accordance with relevant laws or regulations or as requested by the authorities in charge;

 


 

  c.   Bonus to directors and bonus to employees of the Company of not more than 0.3% and not less than 1% of the remainder, respectively. Directors who also serve as executive officers of the Company are not entitled to receive the bonus to directors. The Company may issue stock bonuses to employees of an affiliated company meeting the conditions set by the Board of Directors or, by the person duly authorized by the Board of Directors;
 
  d.   Any balance left over shall be allocated according to the resolution of the shareholders’ meeting.
The Company’s Articles of Incorporation also provide that profits of the Company may be distributed by way of cash dividend and/or stock dividend. However, distribution of profits shall be made preferably by way of cash dividend. Distribution of profits may also be made by way of stock dividend; provided that the ratio for stock dividend shall not exceed 50% of the total distribution.
Any appropriations of the profits are recorded in the year of shareholder approval and given effect to in the financial statements of that year.
The Company no longer has supervisors since January 1, 2007. The required duties of supervisors are being fulfilled by the Audit Committee.
The appropriation for legal capital reserve shall be made until the reserve equals the Company’s paid-in capital. The reserve may be used to offset a deficit, or be distributed as dividends and bonuses for the portion in excess of 50% of the paid-in capital if the Company has no unappropriated earnings and the reserve balance has exceeded 50% of the Company’s paid-in capital. The Company Law also prescribes that, when the reserve has reached 50% of the Company’s paid-in capital, up to 50% of the reserve may be transferred to capital.
A special capital reserve equivalent to the net debit balance of the other components of shareholders’ equity (for example, cumulative translation adjustments and unrealized loss on financial instruments, but excluding treasury stock) shall be made from unappropriated earnings pursuant to existing regulations promulgated by the Securities and Futures Bureau (SFB). Any special reserve appropriated may be reversed to the extent that the net debit balance reverses.
The appropriations of earnings for 2006 and 2005 had been approved in the shareholders’ meetings held on May 7, 2007 and May 16, 2006, respectively. The appropriations and dividends per share were as follows:
                                 
                    Dividends Per Share  
    Appropriation of Earnings     (NT$)  
    For Fiscal     For Fiscal     For Fiscal     For Fiscal

Special capital reserve
    (11,192 )     (1,585,685 )                
Bonus to employees — in cash
    4,572,798       3,432,129                  
Bonus to employees — in stock
    4,572,798       3,432,129                  
Cash dividends to shareholders
    77,489,064       61,825,061     $ 3.00     $ 2.50  
Stock dividends to shareholders
    516,594       3,709,504       0.02       0.15  
Bonus to directors and supervisors
    285,800       257,410                  
 
                           
 
 
  $ 100,126,835     $ 80,428,051                  
 
                           
The shareholders’ meeting held on May 7, 2007 also resolved to distribute stock dividends out of capital surplus in the amount of NT$ 774,891 thousand.

 


 

The amounts of the appropriations of earnings for 2006 and 2005 were consistent with the resolutions of the meetings of the Board of Directors held on February 6, 2007 and February 14, 2006, respectively. If the above bonus to employees, directors and supervisors had been paid entirely in cash and charged to earnings of 2006 and 2005, the basic earnings per share (after income tax) for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 shown in the respective financial statements would have decreased from NT$4.93 to NT$4.56 and NT$3.79 to NT$3.50, respectively. The shares distributed as a bonus to employees represented 1.77% and 1.39% of the Company’s total outstanding common shares as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
The information about the appropriations of bonuses to employees, directors and supervisors is available at the Market Observation Post System website.
Under the Integrated Income Tax System that became effective on January 1, 1998, the R.O.C. resident shareholders are allowed a tax credit for their proportionate share of the income tax paid by the Company on earnings generated since January 1, 1998.
19. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
The Company’s Employee Stock Option Plans under the 2004 Plan, 2003 Plan and 2002 Plan were approved by the SFB on January 6, 2005, October 29, 2003 and June 25, 2002, respectively. The maximum number of options authorized to be granted under the 2004 Plan, 2003 Plan and 2002 Plan was 11,000 thousand, 120,000 thousand and 100,000 thousand, respectively, with each option eligible to subscribe for one common share when exercisable. The options may be granted to qualified employees of the Company or any of its domestic or foreign subsidiaries, in which the Company’s shareholding with voting rights, directly or indirectly, is more than fifty percent (50%). The options of all the plans are valid for ten years and exercisable at certain percentages subsequent to the second anniversary of the grant date. Under the terms of the plans, the options are granted at an exercise price equals to the closing price of the Company’s common shares listed on the TSE on the grant date.
Options of the plans that had never been granted or had been granted but subsequently canceled had expired as of June 30, 2007.

    3,777,162       3,777,162       3,484,092       3,484,092  
  b.   Methods and assumptions used in the determination of fair values of financial instruments
  1)   The aforementioned financial instruments do not include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, other financial assets, payables, and payables to contractors and equipment suppliers. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their short maturities.
 
  2)   Fair values of financial assets/liabilities at fair value through profit or loss were determined using valuation techniques incorporating estimates and assumptions that were consistent with prevailing market conditions.
 
  3)   Fair values of available-for-sale and held-to-maturity financial assets were based on their quoted market prices; while fair values of structured time deposits were estimated using valuation techniques.
 
  4)   Fair value of bonds payable was based on their quoted market price.
 
  5)   Fair value of other long-term payables was based on the present value of expected cash flows, which approximates their carrying amount.
  c.   Gains and losses recognized for the changes in fair value of derivatives estimated using valuation techniques were NT$134,930 thousand NT$277,453 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
 
  d.   As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, financial assets exposed to fair value interest rate risk were NT$50,648,315 thousand and NT$96,561,617 thousand, respectively; financial liabilities exposed to fair value interest rate risk were NT$3,460 thousand and NT$599,909 thousand, respectively, and financial assets exposed to cash flow interest rate risk were NT$6,547,000 thousand and NT$7,127,780 thousand, respectively.

 


 

  e.   The Company recognized an unrealized gain of NT$150,562 thousand and an unrealized loss of NT$190,353 thousand directly in shareholders’ equity for the changes in fair value of available-for-sale financial assets for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively; the Company recognized gains of NT$233,970 thousand and NT$1,116 thousand which was removed from shareholders’ equity and recognized in earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The Company also recognized unrealized losses of NT$30,727 thousand and unrealized gains of NT$308,023 thousand in shareholders’ equity for the changes in fair value of available-for-sale financial assets held by equity method investees for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
 
  f.   Information about financial risks
  1)   Market risk. The derivative financial instruments categorized as financial assets/liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are mainly used to hedge the exchange rate fluctuations of foreign-currency assets and liabilities; therefore, the market risk of derivatives will be offset by the foreign exchange risk of these hedged items. Available-for-sale financial assets held by the Company are mainly fixed-interest-rate debt securities; therefore, the fluctuations in market interest rates will result in changes in fair values of these debt securities.
 
  2)   Credit risk. Credit risk represents the potential loss that would be incurred by the Company if the counter-parties or third-parties breached contracts. Financial instruments with positive fair values at the balance sheet date are evaluated for credit risk. The counter-parties or third-parties to the foregoing financial instruments are reputable financial institutions, business organizations and government agencies. Management believes that the Company’s exposure to default by those parties is low.
 
  3)   Liquidity risk. The Company has sufficient operating capital to meet cash needs upon settlement of derivative financial instruments and bonds payable. Therefore, the liquidity risk is low.
 
  4)   Cash flow interest rate risk. The Company mainly invests in fixed-interest-rate debt securities. Therefore, cash flows are not expected to fluctuate significantly due to changes in market interest rates.

25. SIGNIFICANT COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The significant commitments and contingencies of the Company as of June 30, 2007, except as disclosed in other notes, were as follows:
  a.   On June 20, 2004, the Company and Philips (Philips parted with its semiconductor company which was renamed as NXP B.V. in September 2006) amended the Technical Cooperation Agreement, which was originally signed on May 12, 1997. The amended Technical Cooperation Agreement is for five years beginning from January 1, 2004. Upon expiration, this amended Technical Cooperation Agreement will be terminated and will not be automatically renewed; however, the patent cross license arrangement between the Company and Philips (now NXP B.V.) will survive the expiration of the amended Technical Cooperation Agreement. Under this amended Technical Cooperation Agreement, the Company will pay Philips (now NXP B.V.) royalties based on a fixed amount mutually agreed-on,

 


 

      rather than under a certain percentage of the Company’s annual net sales. The Company and Philips (now NXP B.V.) agreed to cross license the patents owned by each party. The Company also obtained through Philips (now NXP B.V.) a number of cross patent licenses.
 
  b.   Under a technical cooperation agreement with ITRI, the R.O.C. Government or its designee approved by TSMC can use up to 35% of TSMC’s capacity if TSMC’s outstanding commitments to its customers are not prejudiced. The term of this agreement is for five years beginning from January 1, 1987 and is automatically renewed for successive periods of five years unless otherwise terminated by either party with one year prior notice. The agreement was automatically renewed in 1992, 1997, 2002 and on January 1, 2007.
 
  c.   Under several foundry agreements, the Company shall reserve a portion of its production capacity for certain major customers that have guarantee deposits with the Company. As of June 30, 2007, the Company had a total of US$90,985 thousand of guarantee deposits.
 
  d.   Under a Shareholders Agreement entered into with Philips and EDB Investments Pte Ltd. on March 30, 1999, the parties formed a joint venture company, SSMC, which is an integrated circuit foundry in Singapore. The Company’s equity interest in SSMC was 32%. Nevertheless, Philips parted with its semiconductor company which was renamed as NXP B.V. in September 2006. The Company and NXP B.V. purchased all the SSMC shares owned by EDB Investments Pte Ltd. pro rata according to the Shareholders Agreement on November 15, 2006. After the purchase, the Company and NXP B.V. currently own approximately 39% and 61% of the SSMC shares, respectively. The Company and Philips (now NXP B.V.) committed to buy specific percentages of the production capacity of SSMC. The Company and Philips (now NXP B.V.) are required, in the aggregate, to purchase up to 70% of SSMC’s capacity, but the Company alone is not required to purchase more than 28% of the capacity. If any party defaults on the commitment and the capacity utilization of SSMC falls below a specific percentage of its capacity, the defaulting party is required to compensate SSMC for all related unavoidable costs.
 
  e.   The Company provides technical services to SSMC under a Technical Cooperation Agreement (the Agreement) entered into on May 12, 1999. The Company receives compensation for such services computed at a specific percentage of net selling price of all products sold by SSMC. The Agreement shall remain in force for ten years and may be automatically renewed for successive periods of five years each unless pre-terminated by either party under certain conditions.
 
  f.   Under a Technology Transfer Agreement (TTA) with National Semiconductor Corporation (National) entered into on June 27, 2000, the Company shall receive payments for the licensing of certain technology to National. The agreement was to remain in force for ten years and could be automatically renewed for successive periods of two years thereafter unless either party gives written notice for early termination under certain conditions. In January 2003, the Company and National entered into a Termination Agreement whereby the TTA was terminated. Under the Termination Agreement, the Company will be relieved of any further obligation to transfer any additional technology. In addition, the Company granted National an option to request the transfer of certain technologies under the same terms and conditions as the terminated TTA. The option will expire in January 2008.
 
  g.   In December 2003, the Company entered into a Technology Development and License Agreement with Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. to jointly develop 65-nm SOI (silicon on insulator) technology. The Company will also license related 90-nm SOI technology from Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. Any intellectual properties arising out of the co-development project shall be jointly owned by the parties. In accordance with the agreement, the Company will pay royalties to Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. and will share a portion of the costs associated with the joint development project.

 


 

  h.   The Company provides a technology transfer to VIS under a Manufacturing License and Technology Transfer Agreement entered into on April 1, 2004. The Company receives compensation for such technology transfer in the form of royalty payments from VIS computed at specific percentages of net selling price of certain products sold by VIS. VIS agreed to reserve its certain capacity to manufacture for the Company certain products at prices as agreed by the parties.
 
  i.   TSMC, TSMC-North America and WaferTech filed a series of lawsuits in late 2003 and 2004 against Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (“SMIC”), SMIC (Shanghai) and SMIC Americas. The lawsuits alleged that SMIC companies infringed multiple TSMC patents and misappropriated TSMC’s trade secrets. These suits were settled out of court on January 30, 2005. As part of the settlement, SMIC shall pay TSMC US$175,000 thousand over six years to resolve TSMC’s claims. As of June 30, 2007, SMIC had paid US$75,000 thousand in accordance with the terms of this settlement agreement. In August 2006, TSMC, TSMC-North America and Wafertech filed a lawsuit against SMIC in Alameda County Superior Court in California for breach of aforementioned settlement agreement, breach of promissory notes and trade secret misappropriation, seeking injunctive relief and monetary damages. In September 2006, SMIC filed a cross-complaint against TSMC in the same court, alleging TSMC of breach of the settlement agreement and implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, in response to TSMC’s August complaint. In November 2006, SMIC filed a complaint with Beijing People’s High Court against TSMC, TSMC-North America, and Wafertech, alleging defamation and breach of good faith. The result of the above-mentioned litigation cannot be determined at this time.
 
  j.   Amounts available under unused letters of credit as of June 30, 2007 were NT$6,480 thousand.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the six months then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Rules Governing the Audit of Financial Statements by Certified Public Accountants and auditing standards generally accepted in the Republic of China. Those rules and standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2007 and 2006, and the results of their consolidated operations and their consolidated cash flows for the six months then ended in conformity with the Guidelines Governing the Preparation of Financial Reports by Securities Issuers, requirements of the Business Accounting Law and Guidelines Governing Business Accounting with respect to financial accounting standards, and accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of China.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with the aforementioned guidelines, law and principles requires management to make reasonable assumptions and estimates of matters that are inherently uncertain. The actual results may differ from management’s estimates.
Classification of Current and Noncurrent Assets and Liabilities
Current assets are assets held for trading purposes and assets expected to be converted to cash, sold or consumed within one year from the balance sheet date. Current liabilities are obligations incurred for trading purposes and obligations expected to be settled within one year from the balance sheet date. Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are noncurrent assets and liabilities, respectively.
Cash Equivalents
Repurchase agreements collateralized by government bonds, asset-backed commercial papers, corporate notes and treasury bills acquired with maturities of less than three months from the date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents. The carrying amount approximates fair value.
Financial Assets/Liabilities at Fair Value Through Profit or Loss
Derivatives that do not meet the criteria for hedge accounting and financial assets acquired principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term are initially recognized at fair value, with transaction costs expensed as incurred. The derivatives and financial assets are remeasured at fair value subsequently with changes in fair value recognized in earnings. A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets is accounted for using settlement date accounting.
Fair value is determined as follows: Publicly-traded stocks — closing prices at the end of the period; and derivatives — using valuation techniques incorporating estimates and assumptions that are consistent with prevailing market conditions. When the fair value is positive, the derivative is recognized as a financial asset; when the fair value is negative, the derivative is recognized as a financial liability.
Available-for-sale Financial Assets
Investments designated as available-for-sale financial assets include debt securities and equity securities. Available-for-sale financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition. Changes in fair value from subsequent remeasurement are reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity. The corresponding accumulated gains or losses are recognized in earnings when the financial asset is derecognized from the balance sheet. A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets is accounted for using settlement date accounting.
Fair value is determined as follows: Structured time deposits — using valuation techniques; open-end mutual funds and money market funds — net asset value at the end of the period; publicly-traded stocks — closing prices at the end of the period; and other debt securities — average of bid and asked prices at the end of the period.
Cash dividends are recognized as investment income upon resolution of shareholders of an investee but are accounted for as a reduction to the original cost of investment if such dividends are declared on the earnings of the investee attributable to the period prior to the purchase of the investment. Stock dividends are recorded as an increase in the number of shares held and do not affect investment income. The cost per share is recalculated based on the new total number of shares. Any difference between the initial carrying amount of a debt security and the amount due at maturity is amortized using the effective interest method, with the amortization recognized in earnings.

 


 

If there is objective evidence which indicates that a financial asset is impaired, a loss is recognized. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases, for equity securities, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed to the extent of the decrease and recorded as an adjustment to shareholders’ equity; for debt securities, the amount of the decrease is recognized in earnings, provided that the decrease is clearly attributable to an event which occurred after the impairment loss was recognized.
Held-to-maturity Financial Assets
Financial securities for which the Company has a positive intention and ability to hold to maturity are categorized as held-to-maturity financial assets and are carried at amortized cost under the effective interest method except for structured time deposits which are carried at acquisition cost. Those financial assets are initially recognized at fair value plus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition. Gains or losses are recognized at the time of derecognition, impairment or amortization. A regular way purchase or sale of financial assets is accounted for using settlement date accounting.
If there is objective evidence which indicates that a financial asset is impaired, a loss is recognized. If, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease is clearly attributable to an event which occurred after the impairment loss was recognized, the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed to the extent of the decrease. The reversal may not result in a carrying amount that exceeds the amortized cost that would have been determined as if no impairment loss had been recognized.
Allowance for Doubtful Receivables
An allowance for doubtful receivables is provided based on a review of the collectibility of notes and accounts receivable. The Company determines the amount of allowance for doubtful receivables by examining the aging analysis of outstanding notes and accounts receivable and current trends in the credit quality of its customers as well as its internal credit policies.
Revenue Recognition and Allowance for Sales Returns and Others
The Company recognizes revenue when evidence of an arrangement exists, shipment is made, price is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured. Revenues from the design and manufacture of photo masks, which are used as manufacturing tools in the fabrication process, are recognized when the photo masks are qualified by customers. Provisions for estimated sales returns and others are generally recorded in the period the related revenue is recognized based on historical experience, management’s judgment, and any known factors that would significantly affect the allowance.
Sales prices are determined using fair value taking into account related sales discounts agreed to by the Company and its customers. Sales agreements typically provide that payment is due 30 days from invoice date for a majority of the customers and 30 to 45 days after the end of the month in which sales occur for some customers. Since the receivables from sales are collectible within one year and such transactions are frequent, fair value of the receivables is equivalent to the nominal amount of the cash to be received.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Inventories are recorded at standard cost and adjusted to the approximate weighted-average cost at the balance sheet date. Market value represents replacement cost for raw materials, supplies and spare parts and net realizable value for work in process and finished goods. The Company assesses the impact of changing technology on its inventories on hand and writes off inventories that are considered obsolete. Period-end inventories are evaluated for estimated excess quantities and obsolescence based on a demand forecast within a specific time horizon, which is generally 180 days or less. Estimated losses on scrap and slow-moving items are recognized and included in the allowance for losses.

 


 

Investments Accounted for Using Equity Method
Investments in companies wherein the Company exercises significant influence over the operating and financial policy decisions are accounted for using the equity method. The Company’s share of the net income or net loss of an investee is recognized in the “equity in earnings/losses of equity method investees, net” account. Prior to January 1, 2006, the difference, if any, between the cost of investment and the Company’s proportionate share of the investee’s equity was amortized by the straight-line method over five years, with the amortization recorded in the “equity in earnings/losses of equity method investees, net” account. Effective January 1, 2006, pursuant to the revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 5, “Long-term Investments in Equity Securities” (SFAS No. 5), the cost of an investment shall be analyzed and the difference between the cost of investment and the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired, representing goodwill, shall not be amortized and instead shall be tested for impairment annually. The accounting treatment for the investment premiums paid before January 1, 2006 is the same as that for goodwill which is no longer being amortized. When an indication of impairment is identified, the carrying amount of the investment is reduced, with the related impairment loss recognized in earnings.
When the Company subscribes for additional investee’s shares at a percentage different from its existing ownership percentage, the resulting carrying amount of the investment in the investee differs from the amount of the Company’s share of the investee’s equity. The Company records such a difference as an adjustment to long-term investments with the corresponding amount charged or credited to capital surplus.
Gains or losses on sales from the Company to equity method investees are deferred in proportion to the Company’s ownership percentage in the investees until such gains or losses are realized through transactions with third parties. Gains or losses on sales from equity method investees to the Company are deferred in proportion to the Company’s ownership percentages in the investees until they are realized through transactions with third parties.
If an investee’s functional currency is a foreign currency, translation adjustments will result from the translation of the investee’s financial statements into the reporting currency of the Company. Such adjustments are accumulated and reported as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.
Financial Assets Carried at Cost
Investments for which the Company does not exercise significant influence and that do not have a quoted market price in an active market and whose fair value cannot be reliably measured, such as non-publicly traded stocks and mutual funds, are carried at their original cost. The costs of non-publicly traded stocks and mutual funds are determined using the weighted-average method. If there is objective evidence which indicates that a financial asset is impaired, a loss is recognized. A subsequent reversal of such impairment loss is not allowed.
The accounting treatment for cash dividends and stock dividends arising from financial assets carried at cost is the same as that for cash and stock dividends arising from available-for-sale financial assets.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Properties covered by agreements qualifying as capital leases are carried at the lower of the leased equipment’s market value or the present value of the minimum lease payments at the inception date of the lease, with the corresponding amount recorded as obligations under capital leases. When an indication of impairment is identified, any excess of the carrying amount of an asset over its recoverable amount is recognized as a loss. If the recoverable amount increases in a subsequent period, the amount previously recognized as impairment would be reversed and recognized as a gain. However, the adjusted amount may not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, as if no impairment loss had been recognized. Significant additions, renewals and betterments incurred during the construction period are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred.

 


 

Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the following estimated service lives: land improvements — 20 years; buildings — 10 to 20 years; machinery and equipment — 3 to 10 years; office equipment — 3 to 15 years; and leased assets — 20 years.
Upon sale or disposal of property, plant and equipment, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are deducted from the corresponding accounts, with any gain or loss recorded as non-operating gains or losses in the period of sale or disposal.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration paid for an acquisition over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. Prior to January 1, 2006, goodwill was amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated life of 10 years. Effective January 1, 2006, pursuant to the newly revised Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 25, “Business Combinations — Accounting Treatment under Purchase Method” (SFAS No. 25), goodwill is no longer amortized and instead is tested for impairment annually. If an event occurs or circumstances change which indicated that the fair value of goodwill is more likely than not below its carrying amount, an impairment loss is recognized. A subsequent reversal of such impairment loss is not allowed.
Deferred Charges
Deferred charges consist of technology license fees, software and system design costs and other charges. The amounts are amortized over the following periods: Technology license fees — the shorter of the estimated life of the technology or the term of the technology transfer contract; software and system design costs and other charges — 2 to 5 years. When an indication of impairment is identified, any excess of the carrying amount of an asset over its recoverable amount is recognized as a loss. If the recoverable amount increases in a subsequent period, the previously recognized impairment loss would be reversed and recognized as a gain. However, the adjusted amount may not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of amortization, as if no impairment loss had been recognized.
Research and Development
Expenditures related to research activities and those related to development activities that do not meet the criteria for capitalization are charged to expense when incurred.
Pension Costs
For employees who participate in defined contribution pension plans, pension costs are recorded based on the actual contributions made to employees’ individual pension accounts during their service periods. For employees who participate in defined benefit pension plans, pension costs are recorded based on actuarial calculations.
Government Subsidies
Income-related subsidies from governments are recognized in earnings when the requirements for subsidies are met.

 


 

Income Tax
The Company applies intra-period and inter-period allocations for its income tax, whereby (1) a portion of current period’s income tax expense is allocated to the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles; and (2) deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax effects of temporary differences, net operating loss carryforwards and unused tax credits. 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 tax asset or liability is classified as current or noncurrent in accordance with the classification of its related asset or liability. However, if a deferred tax asset or liability does not relate to an asset or liability in the financial statements, then it is classified as either current or noncurrent based on the expected length of time before it is realized or settled.
Any tax credits arising from purchases of machinery, equipment and technology, research and development expenditures, personnel training expenditures, and investments in important technology-based enterprises are recognized using the flow-through method.
Adjustments of prior years’ tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current period’s tax provision.
Income tax on unappropriated earnings (excluding earnings from foreign consolidated subsidiaries) at a rate of 10% is expensed in the year of shareholder approval which is the year subsequent to the year the earnings are generated.
The R.O.C. government enacted the Alternative Minimum Tax Act (the AMT Act), which became effective on January 1, 2006. The alternative minimum tax (AMT) imposed under the AMT Act is a supplemental tax levied at a rate of 10% which is payable if the income tax payable determined pursuant to the Income Tax Law is below the minimum amount prescribed under the AMT Act. The taxable income for calculating the AMT includes most of the tax-exempt income under various laws and statutes. The Company has considered the impact of the AMT Act in the determination of its tax liabilities.
Stock-based Compensation
Employee stock option plans that are amended or have options granted on or after January 1, 2004 are accounted for by the interpretations issued by the Accounting Research and Development Foundation. The Company adopted the intrinsic value method and any compensation cost determined using this method is recognized in earnings over the employee vesting period.
Treasury Stock
TSMC’s stock held by subsidiaries is treated as treasury stock and reclassified from investments accounted for using equity method to treasury stock. The gains resulted from disposal of the treasury stock held by subsidiaries and cash dividends received by subsidiaries from TSMC are recorded under capital surplus — treasury stock transactions.
Foreign-currency Transactions
Foreign-currency transactions are recorded in New Taiwan dollars at the rates of exchange in effect when the transactions occur. Exchange gains or losses derived from foreign-currency transactions or monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognized in earnings.
At the balance sheet date, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are revalued at prevailing exchange rates with the resulting gains or losses recognized in earnings.

 


 

Translation of Foreign-currency Financial Statements
The financial statements of foreign subsidiaries are translated into New Taiwan dollars at the following exchange rates: Assets and liabilities — spot rates at period-end; shareholders’ equity — historical rates; income and expenses — average rates during the period. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement
Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the newly released Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 37, “Accounting for Intangible Asses”. The Company had reassessed the useful lives and the amortization method of its recognized intangible assets at the effective date. The adoption of the SFAS did not have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2007.
3. ACCOUNTING CHANGES
On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the newly released Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 34, “Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement” (SFAS No. 34) and No. 36, “Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation”.
The Company had categorized its financial assets and liabilities upon the initial adoption of the newly released SFASs. The adjustments made to the carrying amounts of the financial instruments categorized as financial assets or liabilities at fair value through profit or loss were included in the cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles; the adjustments made to the carrying amounts of those categorized as available-for-sale financial assets were recognized as adjustments to shareholders’ equity.
The effect of adopting the newly released SFASs is summarized as follows:
                 
    Recognized as        
    Cumulative        
    Effect of     Recognized as  
    Changes in     a Separate  
    Accounting     Component of  
    Principles     Shareholders’  
    (Net of Tax)     Equity  
Financial assets or liabilities at fair value through profit or loss
  $ 1,606,749     $  
Available-for-sale financial assets
          306,531  
 
           
 
               
 
  $ 1,606,749     $ 306,531  
 
           
The adoption of the newly released SFASs resulted in a decrease in net income before cumulative effect of changes in accounting principles of NT$839,900 thousand, an increase in net income of NT$766,849 thousand, and an increase in basic earnings per share (after income tax) of NT$0.03, for the six months ended June 30, 2006.
Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the newly revised SFAS No. 5 and SFAS No. 25, which prescribe that investment premiums, representing goodwill, be assessed for impairment at least on an annual basis instead of being amortized. Such a change in accounting principle did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2006.

17. PENSION PLANS
The Labor Pension Act (the Act) became effective on July 1, 2005. The employees of TSMC, GUC and Xintec who were subject to the Labor Standards Law prior to July 1, 2005 were allowed to choose to be subject to the pension mechanism under the Act with their seniority as of July 1, 2005 retained or continue to be subject to the pension mechanism under the Labor Standards Law. Employees who joined TSMC, GUC or Xintec after July 1, 2005 can only be subject to the pension mechanism under the Act.
The pension mechanism under the Act is deemed a defined contribution plan. Pursuant to the Act, TSMC, GUC and Xintec have made monthly contributions equal to 6% of each employee’s monthly salary to employees’ pension accounts starting from July 1, 2005. Furthermore, TSMC-NA, TSMC-Shanghai and TSMC-Europe are required by local regulations to make monthly contributions at certain percentages of the basic salary of their employees. Pursuant to the aforementioned Act and local regulations, the Company recognized pension cost of NT$349,974 thousand and NT$347,709 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
TSMC, GUC and Xintec have defined benefit plans under the Labor Standards Law that provide benefits based on an employee’s service years and average monthly salary for the six-month period prior to retirement. TSMC, GUC and Xintec contribute an amount equal to 2% of salaries paid each month to their respective pension funds (the Funds), which are administered by the pension fund monitoring committees and deposited in the name of the committees in the Central Trust of China. The Company recognized pension cost of NT$162,471 thousand and NT$152,702 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Capital surplus can only be used to offset a deficit under the Company Law. However, the capital surplus generated from donations and the excess of the issuance price over the par value of capital stock (including the stock issued for new capital, mergers, convertible bonds and the surplus from treasury stock transactions) may be appropriated as stock dividends, which are limited to a certain percentage of TSMC’s paid-in capital.

 


 

Capital surplus consisted of the following:
                 
    June 30  
    2007     2006  
From merger
  $ 24,003,546     $ 24,003,546

  $ 53,725,604     $ 53,822,486  
 
           
TSMC’s Articles of Incorporation provide that, when allocating the net profits for each fiscal year, TSMC shall first offset its losses in previous years and then set aside the following items accordingly:
  a.   Legal capital reserve at 10% of the profits left over, until the accumulated legal capital reserve has equaled TSMC’s paid-in capital;
 
  b.   Special capital reserve in accordance with relevant laws or regulations or as requested by the authorities in charge;
 
  c.   Bonus to directors and bonus to employees of TSMC of not more than 0.3% and not less than 1% of the remainder, respectively. Directors who also serve as executive officers of TSMC are not entitled to receive the bonus to directors. TSMC may issue stock bonuses to employees of an affiliated company meeting the conditions set by the Board of Directors or, by the person duly authorized by the Board of Directors;
 
  d.   Any balance left over shall be allocated according to the resolution of the shareholders’ meeting.
TSMC’s Articles of Incorporation also provide that profits of TSMC may be distributed by way of cash dividend and/or stock dividend. However, distribution of profits shall be made preferably by way of cash dividend. Distribution of profits may also be made by way of stock dividend; provided that the ratio for stock dividend shall not exceed 50% of the total distribution.
Any appropriations of the profits are recorded in the year of shareholder approval and given effect to in the financial statements of that year.
TSMC no longer has supervisors since January 1, 2007. The required duties of supervisors are being fulfilled by the Audit Committee.
The appropriation for legal capital reserve shall be made until the reserve equals TSMC’s paid-in capital. The reserve may be used to offset a deficit, or be distributed as dividends and bonuses for the portion in excess of 50% of the paid-in capital if TSMC has no unappropriated earnings and the reserve balance has exceeded 50% of TSMC’s paid-in capital. The Company Law also prescribes that, when the reserve has reached 50% of TSMC’s paid-in capital, up to 50% of the reserve may be transferred to capital.
A special capital reserve equivalent to the net debit balance of the other components of shareholders’ equity (for example, cumulative translation adjustments and unrealized loss on financial instruments, but excluding treasury stock) shall be made from unappropriated earnings pursuant to existing regulations promulgated by the Securities and Futures Bureau (SFB). Any special reserve appropriated may be reversed to the extent that the net debit balance reverses.

 


 

The appropriations of earnings for 2006 and 2005 had been approved in TSMC’s shareholders meetings held on May 7, 2007 and May 16, 2006, respectively. The appropriations and dividends per share were as follows:

Bonus to employees — in cash
    4,572,798       3,432,129                  
Bonus to employees — in stock
    4,572,798       3,432,129

    516,594       3,709,504       0.02       0.15  
Bonus to directors and supervisors
    285,800       257,410                  
 
                           
 
                               
 
  $ 100,126,835     $ 80,428,051                  
 
                           
TSMC’s shareholders meeting held on May 7, 2007 also resolved to distribute stock dividends out of capital surplus in the amount of NT$774,891 thousand.
The amounts of the appropriations of earnings for 2006 and 2005 were consistent with the resolutions of the meetings of TSMC’s Board of Directors held on February 6, 2007 and February 14, 2006, respectively. If the above bonus to employees, directors and supervisors had been paid entirely in cash and charged to earnings of 2006 and 2005, the basic earnings per share (after income tax) for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 shown in the respective financial statements would have decreased from NT$4.93 to NT$4.56 and NT$3.79 to NT$3.50, respectively. The shares distributed as a bonus to employees represented 1.77% and 1.39% of TSMC’s total outstanding common shares as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively.
The information about the appropriations of bonuses to employees, directors and supervisors is available at the Market Observation Post System website.
Under the Integrated Income Tax System that became effective on January 1, 1998, the R.O.C. resident shareholders are allowed a tax credit for their proportionate share of the income tax paid by TSMC on earnings generated since January 1, 1998.

Obligations under capital leases
    631,297       631,297       595,172       595,172  
  b.   Methods and assumptions used in the determination of fair values of financial instruments
  1)   The aforementioned financial instruments do not include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, other financial assets, short-term bank loans, payables, and payables to contractors and equipment suppliers. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their fair values due to their short maturities.
 
  2)   Fair values of financial assets/liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, available-for-sale and held-to-maturity financial assets other than derivatives and structured time deposits were based on their quoted market prices.

 


 

  3)   Fair values of derivatives and structured time deposits were determined using valuation techniques incorporating estimates and assumptions that were consistent with prevailing market conditions.
 
  4)   Fair value of bonds payable was based on their quoted market price.
 
  5)   Fair values of long-term bank loans, other long-term payables and obligations under capital leases were based on the present value of expected cash flows, which approximates their carrying amount.
  c.   The changes in fair value during the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006 of financial assets/liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, including derivatives estimated using valuation techniques and publicly-traded stocks, were recognized as gains of NT$750,558 thousand and losses of NT$770,634 thousand, respectively.
 
  d.   As of June 30, 2007 and 2006, financial assets exposed to fair value interest rate risk were NT$92,995,718 thousand and NT$96,561,617 thousand, respectively; financial liabilities exposed to fair value interest rate risk were NT$3,474 thousand and NT$601,086 thousand, respectively, and financial assets exposed to cash flow interest rate risk were NT$6,547,000 thousand and NT$7,127,780 thousand, respectively.
 
  e.   The Company recognized an unrealized gain of NT$118,295 thousand (NT$115,935 thousand was attributable to shareholders of the parent and NT$2,360 thousand was attributable to minority interests) and NT$158,899 thousand (NT$154,032 thousand was attributable to shareholders of the parent and NT$4,867 thousand was attributable to minority interests) directly in shareholders’ equity for the changes in fair value of available-for-sale financial assets for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The Company recognized a gain of NT$231,130 thousand (NT$230,261 thousand was attributable to shareholders of the parent and NT$869 thousand was attributable to minority interests) and NT$51,671 thousand (NT$51,418 thousand was attributable to shareholders of the parent and NT$253 thousand was attributable to minority interests) which was removed from shareholders’ equity and recognized in earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The Company also recognized unrealized gains of NT$191 thousand and NT$13,940 thousand in shareholders’ equity for the changes in fair value of available-for-sale financial assets held by equity method investees for the six months ended June 30, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
 
  f.   Information about financial risk
  1)   Market risk. The publicly-traded stocks categorized as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are exposed to the market price fluctuations. The derivative financial instruments categorized as financial assets/liabilities at fair value through profit or loss are mainly used to hedge the exchange rate fluctuations of foreign-currency-denominated assets and liabilities; therefore, the market risk of derivatives will be offset by the foreign exchange risk of these hedged items. Available-for-sale financial assets held by the Company are mainly fixed-interest-rate debt securities; therefore, the fluctuations in market interest rates would result in changes in fair value of these debt securities.
 
  2)   Credit risk. Credit risk represents the potential loss that would be incurred if the counter-parties or third-parties breached contracts. Financial instruments with positive fair values at the balance sheet date are evaluated for credit risk. The counter-parties or third-parties to the foregoing financial instruments are reputable financial institutions, business organizations and government agencies. Management believes that the Company’s exposure to default by those parties is low.
 
  3)   Liquidity risk. The Company has sufficient operating capital to meet cash needs upon settlement of derivative financial instruments, bonds payable and bank loans. Therefore, the liquidity risk is low.

 


 

  4)   Cash flow interest rate risk. The Company mainly invests in fixed-interest-rate debt securities. Therefore, cash flows are not expected to fluctuate significantly due to changes in market interest rates.

27. SIGNIFICANT COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The significant commitments and contingencies of the Company as of June 30, 2007, except as disclosed in other notes, were as follows:
  a.   On June 20, 2004, TSMC and Philips (Philips parted with its semiconductor company which was renamed as NXP B.V. in September 2006) amended the Technical Cooperation Agreement, which was originally signed on May 12, 1997. The amended Technical Cooperation Agreement is for five years beginning from January 1, 2004. Upon expiration, this amended Technical Cooperation Agreement will be terminated and will not be automatically renewed; however, the patent cross license arrangement between TSMC and Philips (now NXP B.V.) will survive the expiration of the amended Technical Cooperation Agreement. Under this amended Technical Cooperation Agreement, TSMC will pay Philips (now NXP B.V.) royalties based on a fixed amount mutually agreed-on, rather than under a certain percentage of TSMC’s annual net sales. TSMC and Philips (now NXP B.V.) agreed to cross license the patents owned by each party. TSMC also obtained through Philips (now NXP B.V.) a number of cross patent licenses.
 
  b.   Under a technical cooperation agreement with ITRI, the R.O.C. Government or its designee approved by TSMC can use up to 35% of TSMC’s capacity if TSMC’s outstanding commitments to its customers are not prejudiced. The term of this agreement is for five years beginning from January 1, 1987 and is automatically renewed for successive periods of five years unless otherwise terminated by either party with one year prior notice. The agreement was automatically renewed in 1992, 1997, 2002 and on January 1, 2007.
 
  c.   Under several foundry agreements, TSMC shall reserve a portion of its production capacity for certain major customers that have guarantee deposits with TSMC. As of June 30, 2007, TSMC had a total of US$90,985 thousand of guarantee deposits.

 


 

  d.   Under a Shareholders Agreement entered into with Philips and EDB Investments Pte Ltd. on March 30, 1999, the parties formed a joint venture company, SSMC, which is an integrated circuit foundry in Singapore. TSMC’s equity interest in SSMC was 32%. Nevertheless, Philips parted with its semiconductor company which was renamed as NXP B.V. in September 2006. TSMC and NXP B.V. purchased all the SSMC shares owned by EDB Investments Pte Ltd. pro rata according to the Shareholders Agreement on November 15, 2006. After the purchase, TSMC and NXP B.V. currently own approximately 39% and 61% of the SSMC shares, respectively. TSMC and Philips (now NXP B.V.) committed to buy specific percentages of the production capacity of SSMC. TSMC and Philips (now NXP B.V.) are required, in the aggregate, to purchase up to 70% of SSMC’s capacity, but TSMC alone is not required to purchase more than 28% of the capacity. If any party defaults on the commitment and the capacity utilization of SSMC falls below a specific percentage of its capacity, the defaulting party is required to compensate SSMC for all related unavoidable costs.
 
  e.   TSMC provides technical services to SSMC under a Technical Cooperation Agreement (the Agreement) entered into on May 12, 1999. TSMC receives compensation for such services computed at a specific percentage of net selling price of all products sold by SSMC. The Agreement shall remain in force for ten years and may be automatically renewed for successive periods of five years each unless pre-terminated by either party under certain conditions.
 
  f.   Under a Technology Transfer Agreement (TTA) with National Semiconductor Corporation (National) entered into on June 27, 2000, TSMC shall receive payments for the licensing of certain technology to National. The agreement was to remain in force for ten years and could be automatically renewed for successive periods of two years thereafter unless either party gives written notice for early termination under certain conditions. In January 2003, TSMC and National entered into a Termination Agreement whereby the TTA was terminated. Under the Termination Agreement, TSMC will be relieved of any further obligation to transfer any additional technology. In addition, TSMC granted National an option to request the transfer of certain technologies under the same terms and conditions as the terminated TTA. The option will expire in January 2008.
 
  g.   In December 2003, TSMC entered into a Technology Development and License Agreement with Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. to jointly develop 65-nm SOI (silicon on insulator) technology. TSMC will also license related 90-nm SOI technology from Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. Any intellectual properties arising out of the co-development project shall be jointly owned by the parties. In accordance with the agreement, TSMC will pay royalties to Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. and will share a portion of the costs associated with the joint development project.

  j.   TSMC, TSMC-North America and WaferTech filed a series of lawsuits in late 2003 and 2004 against Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC), SMIC (Shanghai) and SMIC Americas. The lawsuits alleged that SMIC companies infringed multiple TSMC patents and misappropriated TSMC’s trade secrets. These suits were settled out of court on January 30, 2005. As part of the settlement, SMIC shall pay TSMC US$175,000 thousand over six years to resolve TSMC’s claims. As of June 30, 2007, SMIC had paid US$75,000 thousand in accordance with the terms of this settlement agreement. In August 2006, TSMC, TSMC-North America and Wafertech filed a lawsuit against SMIC in Alameda County Superior Court in California for breach of aforementioned settlement agreement, breach of promissory notes and trade secret misappropriation, seeking injunctive relief and monetary damages. In September 2006, SMIC filed a cross-complaint against TSMC in the same court, alleging TSMC of breach of the settlement agreement and implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, in response to TSMC’s August complaint. In November 2006, SMIC filed a complaint with Beijing People’s High Court against TSMC, TSMC-North America, and Wafertech, alleging defamation and breach of good faith. The result of the above-mentioned litigation cannot be determined at this time.
