Siliconware Precision Industries Co., Ltd.
Conflict Minerals Report
For the Year Ended December 31, 2016
Introduction
This is the Conflict Minerals Report (“Report”) of Siliconware Precision Industries Co., Ltd. (“SPIL”, “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) for the calendar year ended December 31, 2016 in accordance with Rule13p-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Rule”). The Rule sets forth certain due diligence and reporting obligations for companies registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) whose products contain conflict minerals necessary to the functionality or production of a product manufactured by the registrant or contracted by the registrant to be manufactured. The Rule defines “Conflict Minerals” to include cassiterite, columbite-tantalite, gold, wolframite, or their derivatives limited to tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (collectively referred to as “3TG”).
SPIL manufactures a wide range of products that contain Conflict Minerals, but does not directly purchase raw ore or unrefined Conflict Minerals, and does not make purchases of other goods, from the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”) or an adjoining country (collectively referred to as the “Covered Countries”).
Pursuant to the Rule, SPIL conducted a Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (“RCOI”) on the source and chain of custody of the necessary Conflict Minerals in our products, which Conflict Materials we had reason to believe may have originated from the Covered Countries and which may not have come from recycled or scrap sources, to determine whether such products were “Conflict Free”. The term “Conflict Free” is used in this Report in a broader sense to refer to suppliers, supply chains, smelters and refiners whose sources of Conflict Minerals did not or do not directly finance or benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries.
Business Overview
SPIL is one of the world’s leading independent providers of semiconductor packaging and testing services. We offer a full range of packaging and testing solutions, including advanced packages, substrate packages and lead-frame packages, as well as testing for logic and mixed signal devices. We also offer our customers turnkey service, from packaging and testing to shipment service.
Our Packaging Services
We offer a broad range of package formats designed to provide our customers with a full array of packaging solutions. The packaging solutions we currently offer to our customers include substrate packages, which include ball grid array and system in packages (incorporating multiple semiconductor chips) and bumping and flip-chip ball grid array packages, as well as lead-frame packages.
Our Testing Services
Wafer Probing: Wafer probing is the step immediately before packaging of integrated circuits and involves sorting the processed wafer for defects to ensure that it meets customer acceptance criteria. Integrated circuits on an accepted wafer are then individually inspected visually under microscopes before packaging and final testing.
Final Testing:We provide final testing services for a wide variety of logic and mixed signal and RF integrated circuit packages and other integrated circuit packages, including complex and high performance integrated circuits, as well as lower-performance ones. High-performance products include personal computer-related components such as CPU chipsets and graphic processors, while major lower-performance products include integrated circuits used in consumer electronic products.
Other Testing Services: In addition to wafer probing and final testing services described above, we also provide “system-level testing” service for testing products on motherboards, “lead/ball scanner” service to screen out abnormal products, including bent lead or ball defective devices, so as to prevent them from being shipped to the end customers, “marking” services to specify the unique customer logo and batch identification on products and “tape and reel” service to packaging devices into one complete reel for surface mount operation.
We utilize Conflict Minerals which are necessary to implement our packaging services on our customers’ products. No Conflict Minerals are used when conducting testing services.
Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry (RCOI)
SPIL does not directly purchase Conflict Minerals, but rather purchases materials from a wide network of suppliers that in turn source materials from a wide network of suppliers that source materials from theirsub-tier suppliers. Our supply chain is extensive and complex with many layers of suppliers between us and smelters, refiners, and miners of 3TG.
We require our suppliers to provide us with Material Data Sheets (“MDS”) which specify each and every substance, including but not limited to 3TG, contained in the products and components supplied to us. Based on the MDS we received and through our comprehensive scoping process, we identified 143 suppliers that provided SPIL with Conflict Minerals. These 143 suppliers have duly provided us with their respective 3TG sourcing survey results using the EICC/GeSI Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (“CMRT”).
After conducting the RCOI for 2016, we had no reason to believe that any of the 3TG used in connection with relevant products may have originated in the Covered Countries, or did not originate from recycled or scrap sources. See “Due Diligence Result” below.
Due Diligence Designs
In accordance with the Rule, SPIL undertook to determine the Conflict Minerals status for the necessary Conflict Minerals used in our packaging services. We designed and conducted our due diligence measures in conformance with the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, Third Edition (“OECD Guidance”), which is an internationally-recognized due diligence framework.
Due Diligence Designs Performed
Step 1: Establish strong management system
• | | Adopted and maintained SPIL’s Conflict Mineral Policy, which states our commitment to carry out supply chain due diligence in compliance with the OECD Guidance. The policy is available on SPIL’s website athttp://www.spil.com.tw/about/Conflict_Mineral_Policy.pdf. |
• | | Established SPIL’s Conflict Minerals Management Procedure as a clear and coherent management process to ensure risks are adequately managed. |
• | | Organized a project team involving cross-functional groups including purchasing, operations, engineering, customer service, legal and others to implement and perform our Conflict Mineral Policy and Conflict Minerals Management Procedure in collaboration with our suppliers and customers. The project team is under the direction of our Vice-President, also the final approver of SPIL’s Form SD and Conflict Minerals Report. |
• | | Annually completed the Conflict Minerals Project to monitor the implementation of SPIL’s Conflict Mineral Policy and regularly reviewed the project status with senior management. |
• | | Implemented a Conflict Minerals communication and identification mechanism which helps us promote transparency across the mineral supply chain. |
• | | Employed a supply chain system of controls and transparency measures through the use of due diligence tools such as the CMRT, a supply chain survey designed by the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative (“CFSI”) to identify smelters and refiners that process necessary Conflict Minerals contained in a company’s products and the country of origin of those Conflict Minerals. |
• | | Required Conflict Minerals-related documents to be retained for five (5) years, in accordance with the OECD Guidance. |
• | | Strengthened engagements with suppliers with a written Conflict Minerals-related provision in issued purchase orders. |
• | | In 2016, SPIL began requiring all new suppliers to certify their Conflict Free status by signing SPIL’s Conflict Free and EICC Statements. In addition, suppliers that provide us with products containing 3TG are required to provide us with a CMRT. |
• | | Maintained and published on SPIL’s website a company-level grievance mechanism where an interested party is allowed to voice concerns relating to Conflict Minerals. (http://www.spil.com.tw/contact/) |
Step 2: Identify and assess risk in our supply chain
• | | As a downstream company, SPIL identified risks in its supply chain by sorting a list of material categories which may contain 3TGs (the “affected materials”), with the assistance of its Engineering Unit, and mapping direct suppliers who provided us with affected materials during the reporting period (the “affected suppliers”). For the year ended December 31, 2016, SPIL identified a total of 143 affected suppliers and conducted complete surveys with the CMRT template, and required the affected suppliers to provide smelter and refiner information for SPIL’s review. |
• | | Developed and implemented the CMRT review guidance to standardize the process of reviewing the collected CMRTs. Through several rounds of requests and communications, SPIL endeavored to obtain a complete smelter and refiner list from the affected suppliers. |
• | | Identified and assessed risks by utilizing the smelter and refiner list information provided by the EICC/GeSI Conflict-Free Smelter Program (“CFSP”) or the industry equivalents. |
Step 3: Design and implement a strategy to respond to identified risks
• | | Reported findings to designated senior management, outlining the information gathered and the actual and potential risks identified in the supply chain risk assessment. |
• | | Established communication channels to notify our customers and suppliers of thenon-Conflict Free status as applicable and sought collaboration to build a Conflict Free supply chain. |
• | | In 2016, SPIL implemented a continuous risk management plan that includes monitoring and tracking risk mitigation measures undertaken by our suppliers, and considered suspending or discontinuing engagement with suppliers not using Conflict Free smelters or refiners certified by CFSP(“Non-Conflict Free Suppliers”). |
• | | Reviewed the risks identified and requestedNon-Conflict Free Suppliers to mitigate risks by removingnon-Conflict Free smelters and refiners from their and our respective supply chains. |
• | | As part of the risk management plan, SPIL undertook a risk assessment to determine whether additional audits of affected suppliers were necessary. Based on the results of the risk assessment, SPIL is planning to conduct additional audits of affected suppliers in 2017. |
Step 4: Carry out independent third-party audits of the due diligence practices of smelters and refiners
• | | Undertook an Independent Private Sector Audit for the calendar year 2016 of our Conflict Minerals Report to ensure it is in accordance with the requirements of the Rule and the subsequent public statements made by the SEC. |
• | | Leveraged independent smelter audits of the CFSP or the industry equivalent to support certain statements contained in this Conflict Minerals Report. |
Step 5: Report annually on supply chain due diligence
• | | Form SD and Conflict Minerals Report for the calendar year 2016 to be filed with the SEC on or before May 31, 2017. |
Due Diligence Result
Pursuant to the due diligence design and measures performed as described above, we have made a reasonable good faith effort and found no reasonable basis for determining that SPIL, within our management’s control and authority, sourced Conflict Minerals that directly or indirectly finance or benefit armed groups in the Covered Countries, and as such, that our products and source materials are “DRC Conflict Free”.
Due Diligence Improvement
In the next compliance period, SPIL intends to take the following steps to improve the information gathered from our due diligence measures to further mitigate the risk that the necessary Conflict Minerals may directly or indirectly benefit or finance armed groups in the Covered Countries. These steps include, but are not limited to:
• | | Continue to convey to our suppliers SPIL’s corporate policy on responsible sourcing. |
• | | Conduct audits of more suppliers in order to ensure the accuracy and validity of the CMRTs provided by our direct suppliers, and also assist our suppliers to align their Conflict Minerals management systems with ours. |
• | | Continuously review and improve our due diligence procedures. |
Independent Private Sector Audit
KPMG conducted an independent private sector audit for us and such audit report, which is referred to as the Independent Private Sector Audit, is set forth in Exhibit II hereto.
