NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Amounts in Thousand New Taiwan Dollars, Unless Specified Otherwise) 1. GENERAL Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Ltd. (The "Company" or "TSMC"), a Republic of China corporation, was incorporated as a venture among the Government of the Republic of China, acting through the Development Fund of the Executive Yuan; Philips Electronics N.V. and certain of its affiliates (Philips); and certain other private investors. In September 1994, its shares were listed on the Taiwan Stock Exchange. On October 8, 1997, TSMC listed its shares of stock on the New York Stock Exchange in the form of American Depositary Shares (ADSs). TSMC is engaged mainly in the manufacturing, selling, packaging, testing and designing of integrated circuits and other semiconductor devices, and the manufacturing of masks. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The financial statements are presented in conformity with the Guidelines for Securities Issuers' Financial Reporting and accounting principles generally accepted in the Republic of China. Significant accounting policies are summarized as follows: Classification of current and non-current assets and liabilities Current assets are those expected to be converted to cash, sold or consumed within one year. Current liabilities are obligations due on demand within one year from the balance sheet date. Assets and liabilities that are not classified as current are non-current assets and liabilities, respectively. Cash equivalents Government bonds acquired with maturities less than three months from the date of purchase are classified as cash equivalents. Short-term investments Short-term investments are carried at the lower of cost or market value. The costs of investments sold are determined by the specific identification method. Allowance for doubtful receivables Allowance for doubtful receivables is provided based on a review of the collectibility of accounts receivables. -12- Revenue recognition and allowance for sales returns and others The four criteria that we use to recognize revenue are the existence of evidence of a contractual arrangement, delivery or performance has occurred, the selling price is fixed or determinable and collectibility is reasonably assured. Allowance for sales returns and others is estimated based on historical experience and any known factors that would affect the allowance. Such provisions are deducted from sales in the year the products are sold and the estimated related costs are deducted from cost of sales. Sales are determined using the fair value taking into account related sales discounts agreed to by the Company and customers. Since the receivables from sales are collectible within one year and such transactions are frequent, the fair value of receivables is equivalent to the nominal amount of cash received. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Inventories are recorded at standard cost and adjusted to approximate weighted-average cost at the end of each period. Market value represents net realizable value for finished goods and work in process, and replacement value for raw materials, supplies and spare parts. Long-term investments Investments in shares of stock of companies wherein the Company exercises significant influence on the operating and financial policy decisions are accounted for using the equity method. The Company's proportionate share in the net income or net loss of investee companies are recognized as components of the "Investment income/loss recognized by equity method - net" account. When acquiring shares of stock, the difference between the cost of investment and investee's net book value is amortized using straight-line method over five years, and also recorded as components of investment income/loss recognized by equity method - net. The Company adopted Statements of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 30, "Accounting for Treasury Stock" on January 1, 2002. SFAS No. 30 requires a parent company to reclassify its capital stock held by its subsidiaries from short/long-term investments to treasury stock. When the Company subscribes to additional investee shares at a percentage different from its existing equity interest, the resulting carrying amount of the investment in equity investee differs from the amount of Company's proportionate share in the investee's net equity. The Company records such difference as an adjustment to "capital surplus" as well as the "long-term investments" accounts. In the event an investee has an accumulated deficit, it will record an offset to its capital surplus, excluding the reserve for asset revaluation, through retained earnings. The Company will also record a corresponding entry equivalent to its proportionate share of the investee capital surplus, excluding the reserve for asset revaluation, that was generated subsequent to any acquisition of equity interest in the investee. If an investee's functional currency is a foreign currency, "cumulative translation adjustments" would result from the process of translating the investees' financial statements into the functional currency of the Company. Other stock investments are accounted for using the cost method. Cash dividends are recognized as income in the year received but are accounted for as reduction in the carrying values of the long-term investments if the dividends are received in the same year that the related investments are acquired. Stock dividends are recognized neither as investment income nor increase of long-term investments but recorded only as an increase in the number of shares held. -13- An allowance is recognized for any decline in the market value of investments using quoted market prices with the corresponding amount debited to shareholders' equity. A reversal of the allowance will result from a subsequent recovery of the market value. The carrying values of investments with no quoted market price are reduced to reflect an other than temporary decline in their values with the related impairment loss charged to income. Investments in foreign mutual funds are stated at the lower of aggregate cost or net asset value (NAV). An allowance is recognized when the cost of the funds is lower than their net asset values, with the corresponding amount debited to shareholders' equity. A reversal of the allowance will result from a subsequent recovery of the net asset value. The costs of investments sold are determined using the weighted-average method. If an investee company has an unrealized loss on a long-term investment evaluated using the lower-of-cost-or-market method, the Company recognizes a corresponding unrealized loss in proportion to its equity interest and records the amount as a component of its own shareholders' equity. Gains or losses on transactions with investee companies wherein the Company owns at least 20% of the outstanding common stock but less than a controlling interest are deferred in proportion to the Company's ownership percentage until realized through a transaction with a third party. The entire amount of the gains or losses on sales to majority-owned subsidiaries are deferred until such gains or losses are realized through the subsequent sale of the related products to third parties. Gains or losses from sales by investee companies to the Company are deferred in proportion to the ownership percentage until realized through transactions with third parties. Property, plant and equipment, assets leased to others and idle assets Property, plant and equipment and assets leased to others are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. When significant loss occurs, the related assets are stated at the lower of fair value or the book value. Idle assets are stated at the lower of book value or net realizable value. Significant additions, renewals, betterments, and interest expense incurred during the construction period are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are expensed in the period incurred. Property, plant and equipment covered by agreements qualifying as capital leases are carried at the lower of the present value of future minimum rent payments, or the market value of the property at the inception dates of the leases. The effective interest method is used to allocate each lease payment between principal and interest expense. 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 removed with any gains or losses credited or charged to income in the period of disposal. Goodwill Goodwill represents the excess of the consideration paid for acquisitions over the fair market value of identifiable net assets acquired and the difference between the investment cost and the Company's proportionate share in the net assets of acquired investee companies. Goodwill is amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated life of 10 years. -14- Deferred charges Deferred charges consist of software and system design costs, technology know-how, bond issuance costs and technology license fees. The amounts are amortized as follows: software and system design costs - 3 years, technology know-how - 5 years, bond issuance costs - the term of the bonds, technology license fee - the shorter of the estimated life of the technology or the term of the technology transfer contract. Pension costs Net periodic pension costs are recorded on the basis of actuarial calculations. Unrecognized net transition obligation and unrecognized net gain/loss are amortized over 25 years. Deferred gain on sale and leaseback The gain on the sale of property that is simultaneously leased back is deferred by the Company. This deferred gain on sales and leaseback transactions is amortized as follows: (a) operating leases - adjustment of rental expenses over the term of the leases, and (b) capital leases - adjustment of depreciation expenses over the estimated useful life or term of the leases; whichever is shorter. Casualty loss Casualty loss mainly caused from the March 31, 2002 earthquake are recorded when incurred and any insurance recoveries are recorded when probable up to the amount of the loss. Recoveries in excess of the amount of the loss are recorded when realized. Income tax The Company uses an inter-period tax allocation method for income tax. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the tax effects of temporary differences, unused tax credits and net operating loss carryforwards. 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, according to the classification of its related asset or liability, classified as current or non-current. However, if a deferred asset or liability does not relate to an asset or liability in the financial statements, then it is classified as either current or non-current based on the expected length of time before it is realized. Any tax credit arising from the purchase of machinery, equipment and technology, research and development expenditures, personnel training, investments in important technology-based enterprise are recognized using the current method. Adjustments of prior years' tax liabilities are added to or deducted from the current year's tax provision. As of January 1, 1998, income taxes on unappropriated earnings of 10% are expensed in the year of shareholder approval which is the year subsequent to the year incurred. -15- Derivative financial instruments The Company enters into foreign currency forward contracts to manage currency exposures in cash flow and in foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities. The differences in the New Taiwan dollar amounts translated using the spot rate and the amounts translated using the contracted forward rates on the contract date are amortized over the terms of the forward contracts using the straight-line method. At the balance sheet dates, the receivables or payables arising from forward contracts are restated using the prevailing spot rate and the resulting differences are charged to income. Also, the receivables and payables related to the forward contract are netted with the resulting amount presented as either an asset or liability. Any resulting gain or loss upon settlement is credited or charged to income in the period of settlement. The Company enters into interest rate swap transactions to manage exposures from changes in interest rates on existing liabilities. These transactions are accounted for on an accrual basis, in which the cash settlement receivable or payable is recorded as an adjustment to interest income or expense. The notional amount of foreign currency option contracts entered into for hedging purposes are not recognized as an asset or liability on the contract dates. The premiums paid or received for the call or put options are amortized and charged to income on a straight-line basis over the term of the related contract. Any resulting gain or loss upon settlement is credited or charged to income in the period of settlement. Foreign-currency transactions Foreign-currency transactions are recorded in New Taiwan dollars at the current rate of exchange in effect when the transaction occurs. Gains or losses derived from foreign currency transactions or monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are recognized in current operations. At the end of each period, foreign-currency assets and liabilities are revalued at the prevailing exchange rate with the resulting gains or losses recognized in current operations. Reclassification Certain accounts in the financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2002 have been reclassified to conform to the financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2003. 3. NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS In accordance with the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 30, "Accounting for Treasury Stock" and other relevant regulations from Securities and Futures Commission (SFC), the Company is required to reclassify its common stock held by its subsidiaries from short/long-term investments to treasury stock. The reclassification is based on the carrying value recorded by the Company's subsidiaries as of January 1, 2002. The adoption of SFAS No. 30 resulted in the decrease of long-term investments and the increase of treasury stock by NT$1,922,049 thousand as of June 30, 2003, and the decrease in net income for the six months ended June 30, 2003 by NT$255,016 thousand. -16- 4.

The appropriation of any remaining balance shall be approved by the shareholders. Dividends are distributed in cash, shares of common stock or a combination of cash and common stock. Distributions of profits are preferably made in the form of stock dividend. The total of cash dividends paid in any given year may not exceed 50% of total dividends distributed. Any appropriations of net income shall be approved at the shareholders' meeting in the following year and are recorded in the financial statement in the year of shareholder approval. -25- The appropriation for legal reserve shall be made until the reserve is equal to the aggregate par value of the Company's outstanding capital stock.

The average number of shares outstanding for EPS calculation has been adjusted retroactively for issuance of stock dividends and stock bonuses. The retroactive adjustment caused the basic EPS before income tax and after income tax for the six months ended June 30, 2002 to decrease from NT$0.96 to NT$0.84 and NT$0.88 to NT$0.77 , respectively. -28- 18.

Credit risk represents the positive net settlement amount of those contracts with positive fair values at the balance sheet date. The positive net settlement amount represents the loss incurred by the Company if the counter-parties breached the contracts. The banks, which are the counter-parties to the foregoing derivative financial instruments, are reputable financial institutions. Management believes its exposures related to the potential default by those counter-parties are low. ii) Market price risk. All derivative financial instruments are intended as hedges for fluctuations in currency exchange rates on the Company's foreign currency denominated receivables or payables and interest rate fluctuations on its floating rate long-term loans. Gains or losses from forward exchange contracts are likely to be offset by gains or losses from the hedged receivables and payables. Interest rate risks are also controlled as the expected cost of capital is fixed. Thus, market price risks are believed to be minimal. iii) Liquidity and cash flow risk and uncertainty of amount and term of future cash demand. As of June 30, 2003, the Company's future cash demand for outstanding forward exchange contracts, interest rate swaps and option contracts are as follows: Forward Exchange Contracts ------------------------------------- Term Inflow Outflow ------------------- ------------------ -------------- (In Thousand) (In Thousand) Within one year NT$ 44,545,275 US$ 1,362,132 EUR 14,000 - JPY 6,580,435 - -35- The Company has sufficient operating capital to meet the above cash demand. The interest rate of the interest rate swaps has taken the Company's cost of capital into account. In addition, the exchange rates of forward foreign exchange contracts and option contracts are fixed. Therefore, there is no material fund raising risk and cash flow risk. 2) Fair value of financial instruments: June 30, 2003 June 30, 2002 ------------------------- -------------------------- Carrying Carrying Amount Fair Value Amount Fair Value ---------- ------------ ----------- ------------ Non-derivative financial instruments ------------------------------------ Assets Cash and cash equivalents $66,546,050 $66,546,050 $66,385,580 $66,385,580 Short-term investments 3,054,050 3,057,705 - - Receivables from related parties (excluding credit balance of long-term investments 15,186,990 15,186,990 13,072,628 13,072,628 Notes and accounts receivable 12,848,196 12,848,196 12,150,704 12,150,704 Other financial assets 798,672 798,672 2,078,966 2,078,966 Long-term investments (including credit balances of long-term investments) 35,121,987 38,358,044 36,655,574 46,481,900 Refundable deposits 375,715 375,715 577,552 577,552 Liabilities Payables to related parties 3,591,017 3,591,017 3,014,435 3,014,435 Accounts payable 5,154,006 5,154,006 5,407,261 5,407,261 Payables to contractors and equipment suppliers 6,559,597 6,559,597 16,881,543 16,881,543 Bonds payable (includes current portion) 35,000,000 35,838,341 44,000,000 44,755,325 Other long-term payable (including current portion) 5,074,120 5,074,120 1,470,000 1,470,000 Guarantee deposits 1,225,310 1,225,310 6,620,526 6,620,526 Derivative financial instruments -------------------------------- Forward exchange contracts (buy) (39,769) (39,560) (86,940) (11,110) Forward exchange contracts (sell) (104,205) (65,798) 842,073 1,147,839 Interest rate swaps 986 (22,130) 23,652 (289,227) Option 772 (87,415) 17,446 27,791 Fair values of financial instruments were determined as follows: a) The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, notes and accounts receivable, other financial assets, accounts payable, payables to contractors and equipment suppliers are approximate to their fair values. b) Fair value of short-term and long-term investments is based on quoted market prices.
